War News – Iran; A Victim of Western Imperialism or A Real Culprit?
Everyone seems to be tensed up in the political world today. No pizza for the correct guess! Yeah, the West-Iran confrontation. We all know the world hardly got over Afghanistan , Iraq, and woah now Iran? It's not just the Americans that are affected in this situation, also not only the Israelis. The whole world is caught up on to the turmoil and we, the people, have to go through it. Wish we could have changed the channel and left it? That's not going to work. The accusations and confrontations, the sanctions etc. are going to take their toll and what are we going to be left with? A deadly war! Now how grand its going to be is a wild guess.
The Background Story
The story begins with the American accusation on the Iranian regime for their alleged clandestine "weapon" class nuclear device development. Iran is being accused of developing a military nuclear program which can lead to a creation of new nuclear power. Now, when the accusers and the accused come in to the discussion, there have to be sides and corners. The good ole allegations of American "imperialism" and the statement of Iran being an Islamic "radical" entity. OK, now we are not concerned about who is who. What concerns us is how it will fall on us. Continuing, the United States went to the United Nations and it went on to the watchdog "IAEA". The International Atomic Energy Agency took a while to produce the report on Iran's nuclear power status, that gave a good window for the conflict to escalate up.
The momentum started gathering up, when the state of Israel started its rehearsal for surgical strikes on the the Iranian nuclear power plants. Hope we all remember Israel's "Osirak strike"? For those who have forgotten about it , it was a first ever missile attack in history on a nuclear plant by the Israeli air force in June 1981. The target then was the Iraq's Osirak nuclear reactor built with the help of France, and the Israeli air force did live up to their name.
The Story Now
So, with these latest rehearsals going on, what was coming in to the picture was that this was going to be "Osirak take 2". Now along with Israel , The United Kingdom Royal Navy started its preparation for its journey in to the gulf for probable engagements that will be taking place. And the cherry on the cake was placed by the Israeli and Western government's announcement that they are thinking about a military strike on Iran. This has really tensed up the whole situation.
The whole world thought that the game was set. Then another series of events changed the whole scenario. The Russians came up for the support of lonely Iran. They decided to provide the Iranian's with S-300 missiles. These missiles beyond doubt had proven their capacity in the actions that had taken place. The Arab countries pledged their solidarity to the Iranian government . The motive behind some of the countries to pledge solidarity was much of a religious brotherhood bond rather than a politically motivated one. And still there were other countries who thought that after Iraq and Iran, the west may come after them. The S-300 missiles and the growing coalitition of the Arab countries were enough to put the Americans and the Israelis on a hold.
The western governments retaliated with the "allegations" that the Iranians had the help of senior Russian weapons specialist. Another intriguing evidence was that the Iranians had the facility (a double Decker sized container) which enabled them to test the reaction of the device.
IAEA's Late Entry
Then comes in between the IAEA report . It gave a partial nod to the allegations from the Americans that the Iranian regime possessed the capability to develop a device capable of mass destruction, that is their nuclear power plants were not only civilian. IAEA's report also contained the fact that Iranians possesed simulation capability and had "mechanisms" to develop nuclear weapons that cud very well fit on to the their ballistic missile heads. And now the Russians decided that they should better stay away and blocked the sale of the S-300's to the Iranians. This has put the Iranians in jeopardy.
The stage is already set. All it needs is a small flare that would trigger the whole process. Another important factor bothering America is the CIA reports during the time of Soviet Union's breakup, the loose nuclear devices from the Soviet Union stockpile which had gone missing. The weapon dealers had delivered two devices to Iran. Now how much of it is a fact is known to none of us. We can only assume it.
Iraq was different, Iran is a strong military regime and a possible nuclear power. Even though the head of the Iranian regime have been putting up a hardliner attitude, it will be difficult for them to fight a conventional war at this point. Consider all the economic sanctions that will be leveled against Iran. It won't be easy to fight war more than a few days. Combat Aircrafts in Iran's inventory are pretty much outdated. Lets not forget that the American military presence in the Iraqi region, which will be creating a buffer zone between the Iran and Israel. So a probable land invasion by Iran will be out of question.
Iran though has a stable ballistic missile capabilities. So the worst case scenario can be a global thirld world war or a shower of scud missiles on Israel, but the way things are looking up, Israelis are holding up to that, the brand new "IRON DOME" system. But that is not foolproof too. Not to mention the fact that Iran is only one place behind Israel in military strength according to globalfirepower.com .
What we are looking at is a major weapons race in the middle east, sharp rise in the crude oil prices, terrorist attacks that won't be confined to America or Israel. So what is it that we the people are going to face globally? Imperialism? Terrorism ? Surgical Strikes? Or the probability of Third World War? Well that's only worst case scnario and much far from today.

Concerns and Limitation of Cyber Warfare
The discovery of Stuxnet, a malware that targeted a nuclear facility, was somewhat revolutionary and groundbreaking. It targeted ICS which monitor and run industrial facilities. Before that, most of malicious programs were developed to steal information or break-in into financial sector to extort money. Stuxnet went beyond went and targeted high-level facilities. It is not hard to imagine what damage it could have inflicted if the worm were not detected. What is more worrisome, the technology is out. It might not be perfect, but it is definitely a start. Regardless of the intentions behind Stuxnet, a cyber bomb has exploded and everyone knows that cyber capabilities indeed can be developed and mastered.
Therefore, if they can be developed, they will probably be. The final goal of Stuxnet was to affect the physical equipment which was run by specific ICS. It was done in order to manipulate computer programs and make it act as an attacker intended it to act. Such a cyberattack had a particular motivation; sabotage of industrial equipment and destruction could have been one of the goals. So, if they were indeed the goals, it might have been an offensive act, conducted by an interested party, presumably, a state for its political objective. Yet, there are certain limitations when it comes to so-called "cyber weapons" (malware that might be employed for military use or intelligence gathering).
One of the main concerns of cyber offence is that code may spread uncontrollably to other systems. In terms of another physical weapon, it is like a ballistic missile that anytime can go off-course and inflict damage on unintended targets and/or kill civilians. Cyber offensive technology lacks precision, which is so valued in military. For example, in ICS and SCADA systems one may never know what can backfire because of the complexity of the system. The lack of precision consequently affects military decisions. When launching a weapon, officers should know its precise capabilities; otherwise, it is too risky and is not worth it.
In case of Stuxnet, the program started replicating itself and infected computers of many countries. For this moment we do not know if it were planned in that way. However, provided that that target was Natanz facility, it is unlikely. Symantec Corporation started analyzing the case only with external help; it did not come from Natanz. This exacerbates the case if a country decides to launch an offensive cyberattack.
If the military planning cannot prevent cyber technology to go awry or to go out in the public, it brings more disadvantages than advantages. Moreover, given a possibility of the code being discovered and broke down to pieces to understand what it does, it may potentially benefit an opposing party (and any other interested party along the way). This is unacceptable in military affairs.
Similarly, when the code is launched and it reaches the target, it can be discovered by an opponent. In comparison to nuclear, when a bomb explodes, it brings damage and destruction, but its technology remains in secret. In case of cyber, it may not be the case, as when a malware/virus is discovered, it can be reverse engineered to patch vulnerability. By studying the code, an enemy would find out the technology/tactics used that could be unfavourable in the long-run for the attacker.
Additionally, it should be said that not every malware is meant to spread by itself. In order to control the spread, vulnerability can be patched, meaning updating the software which had that vulnerability. An anti-malware can also be introduced; this will make the computer system immune to that particular vulnerability. Nonetheless, if the malware spreads uncontrollably, there is nothing much that an attacker can do. It is not possible to seize the attack. In this scenario, an attack may only release information about this certain vulnerability so that someone else can fix it. However, a state is highly unlikely to do so, especially if the damage is extensive. It would not only cost the state diplomatic consequences, but also it might severely impact its reputation.
An AI-enabled cyberattack could perhaps fulfill its potential. That means involvement of artificial intelligence. AI systems could make digital programs more precise, controlling the spread. In contrast, it could also lead to a greater collateral damage, if a system decides to target other facilities that may result in human death. Similar concerns are raised in the area of autonomous weapon systems in regard to the need of leaving decision-making to humans and not to technology. AI technology has a potential to make existing cyberattacks more effective and more efficient (Schaerf, 2018).
Aforementioned concern leads to another and affects the end result. When a certain weapon is employed, it is believed to achieve a certain goal, e.g. to destroy a building. With cyber capabilities, there is no such certainty. In the
Alternatively, the true costs of cyberattacks may be uncertain and hard to calculate. If that is so, an attacker faces high level of uncertainty, which may also prevent them from a malicious act (particularly, if nation states are involved). However, the costs and the benefits may always be miscalculated, and an attacker hoping for a better gain may lose much more in the end (e.g. consider Pearl Harbour).
Another concern refers to the code becoming available to the public. If it happens, it can be copied, re-used and/or improved. Similar concerns in regards to proliferation and further collateral damage emerged when Stuxnet code became available online. An attacker may launch a cyberattack, and if it is discovered, another hacker can reverse engineer the code and use it against another object. Moreover, the code can be copied, improved and specialized to meet the needs of another party. Technology is becoming more complex, and by discovering a malware developed by others, it also takes less time to produce a similar program and/or develop something stronger. (For instance, after Stuxnet, more advanced malwares were discovered – Duqu and Flame).
Furthermore, there are other difficulties with the employment of cyber offensive technology. In order to maximize its result, it should be supported by intelligence. In case of Stuxnet, an offender needed to pinpoint the location of the facility and the potential equipment involved. It has to find zero-days vulnerabilities that are extremely rare and hard to find[1]. Cyber vulnerability is all about data integrity. It should be reliable and accurate. Its security is essential in order to run an industrial infrastructure.
After pinpointing vulnerability, security specialists need to write a specific code, which is capable of bridging through an air-gapped system. In case of Stuxnet, all of abovementioned operations required a certain level of intelligence support and financial capability. These complex tasks involved into development were exactly the reason why Stuxnet was thought to be sponsored and/or initiated by a nation state. If intelligence is lacking, it may not bring a desirable effect. Moreover, if cyber offense is thought to be used in retaliation, malicious programs should be ready to use (as on "high-alert") in the event of necessity.
Regardless of some
advantages of cyber offence (like low costs, anonymity etc), this technology
appears to be unlikely for a separate use by military. There is a high level of
uncertainty and this stops the army of using technology in offence. Truth is
when you have other highly precise weapons, it does not make sense to settle
for some unreliable technology that may or may not bring you a wanted result.
Yet, other types of
cyberattacks like DDoS attacks can give some clear advantages during military
operations and give an attacker some good cards in case of a conflict. When
such attacks used together with military ground operations, they are much more
likely to bring a desired result.
[1] For better understanding, out of twelve million pieces of malware that computer security companies find each year, less than a dozen uses a zero-day exploit.

Swedish subs: a relic of the past?
As part of the program to replace its four Walrus-class submarines, the Dutch government is examining offers submitted by four European companies. It will announce by the end of the year which two competitors have been selected for the next negotiation stage.
Last June, Swedish Saab Kockums and Dutch partner Damen unveiled an initial design of submarine as part of their proposal to replace the Dutch Royal Navy's fleet. During the European naval show in October, they further revealed technical details about their offer. Despite these announcements, Saab Kockums appears far from being able to draft more than drawings as it lacks the technology and manpower required to build submarines.
Kockums, a Swedish shipyard now known as Saab Kockums, made international headlines back in the 1990s when it closed a major deal with the Australian Navy to design their submarines fleet. Since then, the company seems to have become an empty shell.
In 2005, to strengthen its market position, Kockums joined its German competitor TKMS. Their partnership soon deteriorated as Kockums failed to attract new clients and retain old ones. The A26-class Kockums was developing did not sell well on the international market. Designed in the early 1990s, this sub class was considered outdated and too pricy. In 2013, after 20 years of cooperation, Kockums lost a contract with Singapore. Although TKMS eventually managed to win that contract thanks to another subsidiary, it led to increased tensions between the two companies.
In 2014, Russia's realpolitik and the Ukrainian crisis led the Swedish government to reconsider its naval capabilities. The government realized the capacity to build submarines was of strategic importance, calling for Swedish companies to maintain an adequate level of competency. The Parliament decided to renew its subs fleet and promote local skills by ordering two updated ersatz of the A26-class to Kockums. However, the Swedish government failed to agree on the price with TKMS, ending the negotiation. At the height of the crisis, Swedish military authorities stormed Kockums' laboratory in Sweden to retrieve technology that, according to them, belonged to the army. After that incident, deemed unusual by military experts, TKMS entered talks with Saab to sell Kockums. The sale was eventually closed later that year.
Over the past decades, U-boots have evolved from a fighting device to a diplomatic, sovereignty and intelligence tool. It is now used to locate enemies, deploy elite troops, collect data and send political messages. They require cutting-edge technology and constant research and development. Of all naval solutions, designing subs poses the greatest technical challenges and hence require special skillsets. Not keeping up with the fast-changing evolutions can quickly become the death knell of subs' designers. Though Kockums prove to be a competitive submarine maker in the 1990s, not constructing subs over the last two decades means they have lost their technical and technological expertise. The price at which the company was sold is quite revealing. First thought to be worth 1 billion kronor, Kockums was sold for 340 million kronor (US$ 50,4 million).
The Dutch Navy is internationally recognized for the role its subs played in reducing piracy in the Gulf of Aden. It is part of the few countries able to furtively navigate oceans. The construction of its new submarine fleet is scheduled to start in 2021 and be operational by 2027. Saab Kockums is offering its updated A26-class and it might not be able to meet the deadlines. The A26-class has never been built before and, even if its design has been updated, the scope of the technical adjustments needed for this class to function smoothly is not yet known. With the technology used in naval solutions rapidly evolving, it might as well be less time-consuming to develop an entirely new class rather than update an ancient model.
Moreover, there are doubts about Saab Kockums' capacity to continue its activities in a few years from now. The company already inked several deals with the Swedish Navy. However, to be able to keep up with the investments needed in research and development, Saab Kockums must succeed on export markets. If it fails to secure multiple deals abroad, it will eventually go bankrupt. With such scenario, betting on them might not be the smartest move.
The future does not look bright for Saab Kockums. Though signing with the Dutch Navy could temporarily be good news for them, without sustainable investments in research it will go down like a lead zeppelin!

Is Damen's MCM vessels offer a smokescreen for Belgium?
Belgium and the Netherlands will award a 2-billion-euro contract for 12 new mine countermeasure vessels (CMC) by the end of the month. Three companies, including Dutch Damen, have been shortlisted. Although the Dutch authorities would certainly appreciate to see one of their industrial flagships win the contract, it might not be that beneficial for Belgium.
Belgian defense minister Sander Loones assisted by cabinet chief Peter Devogelaere, National Armaments Director Rudy Debaene and head of Naval forces Wim Robberecht, are currently examining projects to replace minehunter vessels both in Belgium and the Netherlands. Three consortiums have been shortlisted after they submitted their bids last October: Damen & Imtech, Belgium Naval & Robotics and Sea Naval Solutions. In addition to the study of the technical and technological capabilities for each design, the Belgian authorities will evaluate the economic spinoff for the country. Indeed, during a parliamentary commission on planned military purchases, experts including Rudy Debaene, highlighted that one of the main criteria considered when analyzing offers was the economic benefits on the local economy.
Three bids with different economic offers
While Belgium Naval & Robotics and Sea Naval Solutions are proposing technological partnerships with Belgian companies, Damen & Imtech are offering industrial cooperation. Identifying which offer will boost the local economy more is the hardest part for a government. It requires scrutiny of every detail and decisions reaching beyond short-term results. A closer look at Damen's proposal shows that even if it promises to create "decades of work" – which could be handy ahead of legislative elections – it is in fact a smokescreen.
A proposal with a limited industrial and economic impact
Damen has offered to establish an industrial valley from the Zeebrugee to the Oostende regions. However, since Belgium does not have the facilities to build minehunter vessels and Damen has its shipyard in Romania, Damen will leave Belgian subcontractors with only the crumbs. In other words, Damen's proposal relies on existing capacities that do not require investment or training. As a result, it will hardly create jobs. Moreover, Damen plans to implement its activities exclusively in Flanders leaving half of the country on the sidelines.
No transfer of technology
Damen is focusing on sharing building capacities with Belgium so it can strategically retain for itself the most profitable aspect of designing military materials: working on technology. Being able to design deep-sea vessels which could carry heavy weapons was essential in the past century. Today, artificial intelligence is the future of warfare and countries are racing to stay ahead of their peers. In the long run, investing in research and development adds greater value than knowing how to assemble metal sheets.
Damen is among the three finalists despite its wobbly offer. It is leaving Brussels at the margin of innovation, jeopardizing years of research and development, ultimately hampering job creation and economic development. Rather than simply selecting the lowest bidder the government has a responsibility to choose the consortium that will yield the greatest economic results locally.

Here are a few tips to help you find what you are looking for:
Is your skin prone to pimples and blackheads? Here's everything you need to know to help limit breakouts.
Acne is caused by overactive sebaceous glands. These glands secrete sebum, an oily substance that protects the skin. However, excess production clogs the pores and causes the bacteria that leads to acne to multiply. Hormonal changes (caused by puberty, menstruation, hormone therapy, etc.) are among the main causes of acne, but genetics also play a role, as do stress and certain medications.
There is no scientific evidence to suggest that diet causes acne. It is believed, however, that metabolic imbalances resulting in higher sugar levels are responsible for excessive levels of sebum secretion. Alcohol and tobacco are also known to trigger undesirable skin reactions such as oily skin, pimples and blackheads.
No. According to recent studies, there is more of a link between acne and refined products such as cereals, white bread, white rice and cookies.
No. Since makeup hides blemishes, it can actually help make you feel better, and improve your self-esteem. Just make sure to use specially formulated products that are hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. And don't forget to remove your makeup every night before bed.
No.Sun exposure may cause pimples to disappear "temporarily" as ultraviolet rays reduce swelling. But the sun also causes your skin to thicken, which can block the pores even more and make your acne worse.
No. Most soaps contain a lot of irritants, which can dry out acne-prone skin.

A US wildlife advocacy group is voicing its concern that construction of TransCanada's proposed Keystone XL pipeline from northern Alberta to Texas through the midwest could render the endangered whooping crane extinct in North America.
The pipeline project is set to be constructed along the 2,700 km migration route of the birds traveling between the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge on the Gulf Coast of Texas and Wood Buffalo National Park in the NWT.
Leda Huta, executive director of the Endangered Species Coalition (ESC), is calling the proposal, yet to be approved by the Obama administration, "absurd."
"This pipeline simply cannot be built without putting the whooping crane and as many as 10 other endangered species at great and unnecessary peril," she said. "Despite that, the State department recently published its Final Environmental Impact Statement asserting that there would be no significant impacts along the proposed corridor."
She said the State Department's decision to exclude analysis from the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) regarding the pipeline ignores the potential impacts on the endangered whooping crane and, therefore, the requirements of the Endangered Species Act.
The ESC's concern surrounds TransCanada's environmental track record with respect to its existing Keystone pipeline.
"TransCanada would like the world to believe that their pipeline is relatively safe, claiming just one predicted spill in the first seven years," said Huta. "Yet TransCanada's existing Keystone Pipeline has experienced 12 spills in just 12 months of operation."
Five major pipeline spills have taken place in the US in the last two years. The most recent occurred in July beneath the Yellowstone River in Montana, where an ExxonMobil pipeline leaked 1,000 barrels of oil into the waterway.
Huta said a massive spill from a bigger pipeline, like the Keystone XL, could wipe out the remaining 74 pairs of cranes.
"Deepwater Horizon mercilessly demonstrated the near impossible task of cleaning oil from a marsh or wetland," she said. "And this oil – tarsands oil – is much more corrosive, toxic and difficult to clean up. Once coated with sticky oil, the birds would be unable to insulate and regulate their temperatures and could slowly die from hypothermia or acute toxicity."
Huta also said the cranes would be put at further risk by power lines that would be constructed along the pipeline route. Collisions with power lines are currently the main known cause of death for migrating whooping cranes.
The final decision on constructing the Keystone XL rests with US President Barack Obama and will take place before the end of the year. Public hearings will continue throughout the states into November.

- Coverstock: ConneXion
- Color: Red / Purple
- Hardness: 76-78
- Factory Finish: 2,000 Siaair Micro Pad
- Weight Block: Paragon Two-component Symmetrical Core (14-16# only, 12 and 13 # have a generic core)
- RG max: 2.514
- RG min: 2.469

- Recommended Lane Conditions: Medium-Oily
- Description: The Wild Card utilizes ConneXion coverstock known for its unbelievable traction response from foul line to head pin. The aggressive connection of the Wild Card to the lane surface inspires confidence in the ball reaction that allows bowlers to play the lanes the way they want to. The ultra low RG Paragon core was designed with two intentions. First, lower the RG to create a faster revving core that will provide improved mid-lane traction. And second, raise the RG differential to increase the track flare potential which will generate more overall hook with standard layouts and the use of interchangeable thumb sleeves. With its 2,000 Siaair Micro Pad finish, the Wild Card will provide good length with a strong continuous backend reaction that matches up on medium to oily lane conditions for a wide range of bowling styles.

Ball Review: Wild Card
Date: 11/04/09
Bowler Information:
Initial ball Speed: 16.5 - 17 mph
Tilt: 10 Degrees
Axis Rotation: 30 Degrees
Rev Rate: 300-340 RPMs
Coverstock - Connexion Solid
RG min - 2.469
Differential - .045
Drill Specs:
Pin to PAP - 5
Degree From VAL: 70"
Vertical Pin Orientation: Down
Drill Angle - 65"
OOB 2000 Siaair Micropad
The Wild Card is a new generation of benchmark ball from Brunswick. With this new release they have taken the Connexion coverstock in the solid form and placed it on the Paragon Core. This ball gives the bowler a midlane read with more response than Brunswick fans and bowlers in general have seen from Brunswick in the past on the backend. With the slower response layout I choose I was looking for a smoother rolling piece to read lanes with and keep me in play when the pattern is wet dry and I can't get to the pocked with other balls. This ball gave me a predictable read in the midlane with plenty of hook and pin action that is definitely better than smoother rolling balls that Brunswick has had in the past. Connexion coverstock definitely has improved continuation at the pins when compared with Powerkoil 18 or Activator coverstock. I got everything I asked for and more with the Wild Card. In spite of its large hook potential, I could see this ball being the go to ball across a variety of lane conditions as it is already become the first ball out of the bag for me in a short time. When you need a ball to conquer the lanes pull out the ace in the hole...the Wild Card.

4.5" Pin to PAP below fingers
No X Hole
4000 sia air finish
I have used this ball for two weeks in our PBA league on the Scorpion pattern. For two weeks I've had two of my best series! I really like how this ball goes through the pins. It reads the midlane well and has good continuation through the pocket. On a pattern where 2-10 splits are common, the Wild Card keeps me in the pocket.
I went with a 4.5" pin instead of my usual 5" becasue I didn't want to use a hole unless absolutely necessary. I'm happy with the flare separation.
I found I have the best reaction with the 4000 finish because of my slower ball speed.
Between the Siege and the Wild Card I honestly feel that Brunswick has two of the best solid balls on the market.

Ball: Brunswick Wild Card
Pin 5 from PAP, above ring finger
CG on midline, ¾ to right of grip center
No XH
Initial Surface Preparation:
Box finish
Ive been looking for something that I can use to open up the back end on heavier medium conditions where the fronts are tight and I cant really give away a lot of the pocket. Over the course of a tournament season, I see a number of modified house shots, where there is more volume than usual on the outside part of the lane. On conditions like this, the Siege and Wild Thing tend to over-read the midlanes, and the Wild Ride and Rattler dont pick up the friction quickly enough.
Why this ball?
The Wild Card caught my attention because of its combination of a solid version of the ConneXion cover and the low-RG Paragon core. What I was hoping to get with the Wild Card was the same basic breakpoint shape and movement through the pin deck that Ive seen with the Wild Thing, but with an earlier midlane read.
Ive thrown the Wild Card a few times at a center with five-year-old Pro Anvilane, in a second-shift league. The Wild Card gave me a decent look to the pocket, but I really had to watch the speed if I wanted to get the corners out. So I changed my alignment to use more of the dry on the outside, and this did the trick. I didnt lose the pocket, and I got enough midlane help to where I could carry. I did have to make sure I maintained this more open alignment as the pattern broke down, for while the reaction was still serviceable through the oil, my carry was better when the ball hit more friction.
I also used the Wild Card at a center with HPL in front and older wood in back, on a fresh house condition. The Wild Card did a great job of blending out the ball reaction from front to back. The ball was clean through the front, picked up the midlane nicely, and was very strong through the pins. I also had more leeway to miss in the oil, because of the higher friction in back. As the condition broke down, I was able to make proportional moves to the left, and still get good recovery from the dry.
The first time I threw the Wild Card, I was reminded of the general reaction shape of the Ultimate Inferno remake, with a few key similarities and a few noticeable differences. Like the Ultimate, the Wild Card has that prototypical midlane read for which the Zone and Inferno lines have become known. Also like the Ultimate, the Wild Card carries best when it can get all the way to the dry boards. Unlike the Ultimate, though, the Wild Card wont over-bounce when it hits friction too early in the ball path. In addition, when the transition forces me inside, the Wild Card retains energy well enough to turn the corner and still strike, while the Ultimate tended to labor down lane for me when I had to give up the pocket.
For me, the Wild Card has been doing a good job of filling the strong and sharp spot in the bag. Because of its combination of power and forgiveness, I expect this ball to see quite a bit of action as the tournament season progresses.

Brunswick Wild Card
3 pin
2.3 top
30* by 4.25 by 75*
x-hole: 1 past PAP
OOB surface (2000)
Personal Stats:
18+/- mph
325-350 rpm
PAP: 4.75 right
I needed a ball to fit in the spot of Just Plain Strong in my bag. All of the other strong balls I have Ive drilled weak to smooth them out, but not this one. I wanted this ball to be all that it was meant to be in order to be my go-to ball on longer patterns where I need strength.
On the lanes:
The only pattern that Ive thrown this ball on so far is last years Shark at 50uL per board instead of 40uL (I knew better than to even try to keep it to the right of the headpin on my THS). I started off with my semi-weak Siege for a few shots in order to compare the two. With the Siege, I could play a shot that I call a Stinger up the 13 board. A Stinger is a shot that is at a semi-fast, high revving, fairly tight, and direct but never turns the corner completely and it just slaps pins silly.
With the Wild Card, I was able so down just a tiny bit (maybe .5mph) and play a small swing with a laydown of 15 out to 11 at the breakpoint. The breakpoint was definitely strong and defined and every single shot turned the corner with ease and I had more margin of area for the ball to make it to the pocket. I would classify the reaction shape as a very strong arc. As the shot broke down, I was able to make small moves inside and didnt have to worry about the ball not cornering enough to get the 10 out.
Since it wasnt the new Shark, I knew there was a potential shot on the twig. Just for fun, I moved out and threw a couple shots with the Wild Card playing straight up 3 after slowing down to about 17mph and making sure that I got around the ball. I had decent success playing the pattern this way as long as I had enough axis rotation. In about 10 shots, a small area on the 3 board was burnt up and I could play a very small bump off of it instead of playing straight up.
The Wild Card is exactly the ball I wanted in the strongest spot in my arsenal. Ive had strong equipment before but I dont think Ive had anything this strong AND this forgiving. Personally, Id say this is a truly amazing strong symmetrical ball and I cant imagine my arsenal without it.

I have finally thrown this enough to post a review. I drilled mine 75x6x30. I wanted a stronger ball drilled weaker, more for THS. I polished it some and it is great. The WC is about 2 stronger than my Wild Thing drilled 65x5x35. I like this ball alot. It is smoother than the WT and C System but does hook a little more. Also carries very well. Very predictable(trademark Brunswick). I have just drilled another one as well. I drilled it 70x1 1/2x40. Hit it with 4000 then polish. I needed this ball for the one center I bowl at. Needed to stay closer to the track longer and it fits the bill great. Haven't thrown it much but will post more later. If you are looking for a ball that hooks and controls the breakpoint, look no farther than the Wild Card.

Ok, I have thrown my 70x 1 1/2x40 enough now to post a review. This one center I bowl at really breaks down. I am a high rev player and even when it is only me playing in, they still break down alot. So I drilled this ball to stay farther right longer. This way when this ball doesnt work I can change balls and go deep.
Now, with this layout and surface prep(4000 then polish) the ball clears the front with a trace of oil. Reads the midlane well and then a smooth roll off the spot. No flip or strong turn at all just a roll.
I have found that the Wild Card takes surface changes very well and responds to them well also. Polishing will add more downlane motion and more surface will smooth it out.
Between the two I have they are the first balls out of my bag right now. It should be the first ball out of your bag too!!!

I have had my Wildcard(s) for about a week now and have had the opportunity to throw them quite a bit. Both are drilled differently - one with my favorite drilling pin in the palm, cg kicked out with a hole and the other has the pin way above the fingers with no weight hole. Both have box fnishes on them as well.
The pin in the palm WC picks up an early rolls but still has a continuous motion down the lane. My pin up WC gets down the lane pretty long with more of an angular motion in the back. They compliment each other really well so it's easy for me to go back and forth between the two.
Both are a GREAT addition to any arsensal that is lacking this type of equipment.

The Wild Card utilizes ConneXion coverstock known for its unbelievable traction response from foul line to head pin. For a ball with a solid coverstock the Wild Card gets easily through the heads, staying on line to target on medium and heavy oil conditions, but the coverstock really comes to life when the ball reaches the end of the oil pattern and moves aggressively to the pocket. The Paragon core was designed with two things in mind. First, lowering the RG to create a faster revving core that provides a strong mid-lane traction. And second, raise the RG differential to increase the track flare and generate more overall hook with standard layouts.
I drilled my Wild Card 70x5x40 and took the finish to 4000 with Siaair Micro Pads. I was looking for the Wild Card create length with a smoother motion in the back part of the lane. This ball is incredible on our 39ft THS being that it clears the front while maintaining a smooth predictable move at the end of the pattern. It also worked great from a deeper angle because it never lost its continuation through the pins. Every once in awhile you get that ball you know is going to be great before you even get on the lane and this is one of those balls. I rarely include personal accomplishments in my reviews, but during the first 10 games with the Wild Card I averaged 250, had a 300, couple of 279's and a low game of 220. The Wild Card is one ball that would definitely be a great addition to anybody's arsenal.

LAYOUT: Pin 4" from PAP, slightly above fingers, CG stacked about 2"right of grip center. No extra hole used.
FINISH: Box finish (2000)
OBSERVATIONS: What I was hoping for was a solid with a little more angularity than most Brunswick solids. Typically reading the midlane has never been a problem with Brunswick equipment, however, creating more angularity late hasn't been too easy for me.
This ball is DIFFERENT than it's predecessors! After using it for a few months I can honestly say that this one is my favorite Brunswick solid in a long time. For the "typical house shot" I have found it best at 4000 where the ball recovers very strong late.
Recently I bowled on a VERY LONG AND FLAT PATTERN. I adjusted the cover back to 2000 in anticipation. The Wild Card was the ball choice over the Diamondback for this reason. Both read the lane at roughly the same point, however the Wild Card responded faster to the friction on the back end. This allowed me more room to "miss" and still find pocket.
SUMMARY: Both this ball and the Diamondback have been great on house shots to blend out the pattern front to back as well as side to side. The difference is that this (Wild Card) cover and core seem to do better when the lanes are on the slick side. I gave one to my son for Christmas and it's his "go to" ball whenever the lanes seem spotty or his game isn't quite "on" and he always finds a way to score with it. I plan to use mine more and more because of it's versatility. Dull to shiny this one is a keeper!

--- Brunswick Wild Card ---
I drilled 2 Wild Cards for some tournaments I have had the last couple weeks.
Wild Card #1 -
Layout 5 1/2 x 4 with a large hole down. Pin down
This ball started up a little sooner and was pretty strong overall. It wasn't a sharp motion in the back part of the lane but a smooth stronger arc. I definitely had no problems playing anywhere I needed to with this ball. Actually as the tournaments went on this became the benchmark or first one out of the bag to be thrown. Worked very well on the fresh as it never over hooked or did anything funny when it hit the dry. I actually really liked the motion of this ball that I drilled a 2nd one.
Wild Card #2 -
Layout 5 x 4 with a medium hole. Pin Up
With WC #1 being pretty smooth overall off the dry, I needed one that was a just a little sharper in the backends. So I drilled one with a pin up and an extra hole straight across. This allowed the ball to save just a little more for when it got down the lane. Definitely was what I was looking for!!
Overall 2 great products by Brunswick. I thank them for their help and developing another great ball!

Ball Name - Wild Card
Bowler Specs
Right Handed
4000 Polished Surface
Description - The Wild Card introduces Connexion Solid Coverstock to the Wild Series of bowling balls. This coverstock along with the Paragon Core is destined to be another success.
Drilling - This ball is drilled 4 x 5 with not weight hold. This drilling will give the look of a basic "over the label" drilling.
Reaction - The ball is exactly what I expected. Clean thru the fronts, easy pick up in the midlane, and a smooth continuous arc on the backend. This ball's reaction helps me keep control of the pocket and does not over react at any time.
Overall - I like this ball and will drill another with a stronger drill and different coverstock.
Thank you to Billy O, new product rep Brian Bever, and all the good folks of Brunswick.

Just drilled up a Wild Card for myself a couple of days ago to replace a the balls that I just shipped out to Reno. I have a few tournaments this week and needed something to take the place of my favorite Diamondback.
I used the exact same layout as my latest Diamondback which was 35 X 4.5 X 20. This puts the pin about 1.5" above and left (left-handed) of my ring finger. X-hole in the P3 position 3" deep.
I rolled this ball in the same event (re-entry) that I bowled in last week with my Diamondback. The pattern placed a heavier volume up front with a fairly clean back-end. Ball speed was an important factor at this center for me. A bit too firm and the ball will have a tendency to skid through the break point. A soft hand was the key to good ball reaction.
What I saw with the Wild Card was a bit of an earlier read than my Diamondback and also a slightly faster response to the friction at the back-end. This gave me an even better look on the lanes as I had a bit more recovery room to the left than I saw with the Diamondback. I was very impressed with the performance of this ball and am seriously thinking about taking it to Reno. Looks like I may have to check a bag at the airport after all...

The first thing that comes to my mind about this ball is pure control. This is one the balls first out of my bag to read the lanes. Drilled this wild card pin in the middle finger and cg kicked out. This layout made this ball extremely smooth. Recently got back from USBC Nationals and was able to use this ball all thought doubles and also for about a game in team. This ball just absolutely read the lanes perfectly!!!!!!!!!

My Wild Card is laid out Pin in the Ring (4" to PAP)
This ball is all about control and results. It is extremely smooth, provides lots of read in the midlane with a lot of control at the backend. It never does anything unexpected and is great on all kinds of fresh patterns.
I found that for house patterns I required polish and this really livened up the Wild Card in the backend. I personally have found it to be more responsive downlane than my Revolver, and has enough pop to allow me to get left and still carry. A more speed dominant player would likely see more success on house with this piece than me.
I really like my Wild Card on fresh sport patterns. For sport I keep the surface dull around 1000 grit. The Wild Card has kept me out of trouble early on the shark pattern in my PBAX league and has allowed me to at least stay in the pocket on some rough Kegel Sport Patterns in college bowling. The Wild Card is definitely a ball I like to use when grinding on flat, slick patterns as it gives me a strong read of the midlane without any surprises in the backend. Its consistency keeps me from leaving too many splits and has enough carry to reward me when I make good shots.

Mohamed Ali, DDS
4.9 74 reviews
- Naima Abdullah
I had a dental emergency just a few days before Christmas. My friend's father recommended me to see Dr. Ali. Dr Ali managed to fit me in his busy schedule before closing his office for the holiday. He was calm in delivering my news of getting 3 extractions. As anxious as I was, I was able to read all the positive reviews his variety of patients wrote about him. He has been practicing at the same location for years and he looked like he had some loyal patients. Dr Ali and his staff stayed way past their clinic hours to perform the procedure. Dental work is overall an expensive process. But honestly, price doesn't beat the way I was taken care of at this clinic. I am grateful, and have found a dentist that I will stick with going forward.
- Mahvish Ponce
The best dental clinic ever. The staff are good and . Dr Ali is super nice, very knowledgeable and very gentle. I strongly recommend Dr. Ali to anyone who has any kind of dental issues. Looking forward to having my tooth implant in a couple of months.
- Perrins Fojas
Great group of people. I always leave with a great smile (no pun intended). Thanks Dr. Ali!
- Kasandra
I recommend Dr. Ali and his staff with the highest regard.
- Cottage Gym
I've been going to Dr. Ali's from day one. To preface I'm in my early 50's. Gosh I can't even remember how long it's been, say maybe 20 years.?! Anyway I keep going even though I don't always go into my downtown office anymore, but I still make that trip to go to Dr. Ali for the best dental service I know. His staff is super gentle with my teeth and are always welcoming! On regular intervals I get all the X-rays done and receive quality unhurried advice. Actually Dr. Ali is quite the chatter box if you start talking to him about subjects that he's passionate about.

Shares of Tencent Music Entertainment (NYSE:TME) recently stumbled after the Chinese streaming music giant posted its second-quarter numbers. The headline numbers weren't too bad: Its revenue rose 31% annually to 5.9 billion RMB ($859 million), topping expectations by $18 million, as its adjusted net profit rose 6% to 1.1 billion RMB ($164 million), or $0.10 per ADS, beating estimates by two cents.
However, Tencent Music's slowing growth, contracting margins, and murky expansion plans spooked the bulls. Let's dig deeper into its second-quarter report to see if those concerns are justified.
The online music business is losing momentum
Tencent Music generated 26% of its revenue from its online music streaming apps (QQ Music, Kugou, and Kuwou) and digital downloads during the quarter. However, revenue at the unit fell 3% sequentially as it lost monthly active users (MAUs), and that drop wasn't offset by an increase in its paid subscribers and monthly average revenue per paid user (ARPPU).
Tencent Music's growth looks dismal compared to that of its closest rival, NetEase's (NASDAQ:NTES) Cloud Music. NetEase stated that users of its mobile app rose 50% annually to 800 million last quarter and that its subscriber base grew 135%, although it didn't disclose an exact number.
Tencent Music is gradually converting its MAUs to paid subscribers, but its low monthly ARPPU of 8.6 RMB ($1.22) indicates that it doesn't have much pricing power in this market. Spotify (NYSE:SPOT), which also owns a stake in Tencent Music, charges subscribers $5 to $10 per month in most markets.
On the bright side, the unit's 32% annual growth in subscriber revenue marked an acceleration from its 26% growth in the first quarter. Tencent Music stated that it will support that growth

Toronto Dollar Community Projects Inc. P.O. Box 6523 Station "A" Toronto ON M5W1X4
In development
The Toronto dollar is a complementary currency used by a small community in the Toronto area. Its goal is to encourage local consumers and retailers to shop and reinvest in their community. Toronto dollars are equal in value to Canadian dollars and are accepted at more than 150 businesses, mainly in the St-Lawrence market area.
This complementary currency promotes socioeconomic growth in the Toronto area by encouraging exchanges between local shoppers and merchants. What differentiates this project from other complementary currency projects is that it has operated on the basis that 10% of every Toronto dollar sold is directed to a fund to support local community projects.
Local complementary currencies projects can be numbered in the thousands across the world.
The Toronto dollar was created in 1998 by a registered non-profit organization called the Toronto Dollar Community Projects Inc. in order to promote local commerce.
