Chapter 932: Farewell and Take Care
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia Ling was a little nervous.
She remembered the last time she saw him. In the dark study of his villa, he pressed her against his desk and forcefully ripped off her clothes… This man was a dangerous person. No matter where he was, she could never let her guard down. She looked at him with caution.
His voice was dry. "You're leaving?"
She said, "I'm already married to Li Lei, so of course I have to move out. I also hope you find your other half soon."
I hope you find your other half soon…
Her words were more painful to him than anyone else's. The words were like a sharp knife that sliced his heart. Pei Ziheng lowered his head to look at her. "You are the only one I love."
Li Lei looked uncomfortable. This man was seriously too arrogant. Did he think that her husband was dead?!
Xia Ling said, "The past is in the past. Farewell and take care."
"Farewell and take care?" There was faint light in Pei Ziheng's eyes. In the corner of his eye, he saw the servant hang the signboard which said "For Sale" on the flower vine.
"Sell your house to me." He said.
This time, Xia Ling was not very happy. "Pei Ziheng, why are you still clinging on to the past? We were done a long time ago. You are handsome and have a successful career. There are many girls waiting to be picked by you. Forgetting me is good for you and for me."
Pei Ziheng smiled lightly. "We are done? We will never be done."
Xia Ling coldly said, "Please make way. Li Lei and I are about to enter the car."
Pei Ziheng refused to give way. "What you owe me and what I owe you will never be paid in this lifetime."
Xia Ling did not want to be entangled with him any longer. However, when he mentioned that she "owed" him, something flashed through her mind. These two days, when she was packing her items, she finally remembered what Pei Ziheng owed her! "Where's my horse, Valiant Song?" She lifted her head and asked Pei Ziheng. "If you give Valiant Song back to me, I will sell this villa to you."
This time, Pei Ziheng was slightly startled.
Xia Ling was a little anxious. "I give you my word." Since he wanted the villa, he could have it. Even if she refused to sell it, he had countless ways to obtain the villa from her hands. It was better to use the villa to exchange for her loyal horse, Valiant Song…
Was it very old now? However, it was fine. She would take care of it well.
Pei Ziheng's voice was dark. "Valiant Song? It's dead."
What?! Dead?!
"No, I don't believe…" Xia Ling mumbled. "It's a purebred horse and is from a noble bloodline. It was always healthy and logically speaking, it shouldn't die so easily. Did you abuse it?!"
"Xiao Ling, in your heart, am I that sort of person?" Pei Ziheng sounded hurt.
Xia Ling stopped talking, but her eyes clearly said "yes." Seeing the stalemate between the two, Li Lei stepped forward, took Xia Ling's hand, and skillfully separated her from Pei Ziheng. "Let's go, Xiao Ling. You just got pregnant and the doctor said that you have to rest well. Let's talk about Valiant Song some other time."
There was a sharp pain in Pei Ziheng's heart again. She was really pregnant!
He looked very hurt, angry and betrayed. There was also some reluctance…
She did not dare to look at him again. Her heart was in a mess as she hurriedly got on the car with Li Lei.
The car slowly left.
During the ride, Xia Ling was in a bad mood. She leaned her head on Li Lei's shoulder and looked at the city scenery outside the window without speaking. Li Lei gently hugged her. "Don't worry. I will investigate what happened to Valiant Song. Perhaps it's not really dead and Pei Ziheng just does not want to give it back to you."
She whispered, "I feel restless."
Li Lei kissed her. "I'm here."
She looked at the scenery outside the window for a while and then slowly opened her mouth. "At that time when I reincarnated, I had no family, was targeted by Pei Ziheng, and was in so much debt. No one would acknowledge me and everyone bullied me. Even you, Li Lei… At the start, you treated me as a fling."
She mumbled and told him about her past.
Li Lei was a little distressed. "I'm sorry." At that time, he never loved any girl before and did not understand what love was. He mixed around with Jin Yifei and Du Yunfeng and changed women like he changed clothes, treating it as something normal. When he took interest in an ordinary girl, his first reaction was to treat her as a fling and not a girlfriend that he planned to marry. However, if he knew what was about to happen next, he would immediately take her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate. Perhaps, there wouldn't be so many twists and turns then.
Xia Ling's butterfly-like eyebrows twitched. "Only Valiant Song recognized me at first glance. You don't know how much comfort it gave me at that time… I only have myself to blame. Why didn't I think of getting it back years ago? Li Lei, I'm really afraid that it's really dead… I won't be able to forgive myself in this life."
As she spoke, tears gathered in her eyes.
Perhaps she became weaker after her pregnancy. Li Lei took care of her more gently. "Once we get home, I will investigate what happened to Valiant Song."
"I will go with you."
"No way. You're pregnant." Li Lei rejected her.
Xia Ling leaned over to look at him. "Li Lei, I have to do something for it. Regardless of whether it is alive, there has to be an explanation. Without clarifying it, I won't feel at ease."
Li Lei could not convince her otherwise and could only agree. "Ok, we'll go together."
The weather was good the next day.
The Pei Family's private resort in the suburbs of the S City.
The Pei Family had lived in S City for generations, so the private resorts in the suburbs also had been used for generations. The land space was large, the environment was quiet, and no other family in S City could enter, even the Li Family.
Pei Ziheng looked at a horse in the stable.
Its whole body was red, its fur was smooth and velvety, and its body was strong. It had a pair of sharp eyes. Anyone who saw it would exclaim that it was a "good horse." Unfortunately, this horse was crippled. No matter how hard it tried, it was obvious that its legs were unbalanced and could no longer run.
Pei Ziheng looked at it for a long time.
The sunlight scattered on its back, highlighting its cold look. No one knew what it was thinking.
This horse was beaten and crippled by him. That year, he did not know that "Ye Xingling" was the reincarnation of his beloved Xiao Ling. He hated how intimate Valiant Song was with another woman other than Xiao Ling. In anger, he broke its leg. However, now, the reality was that Valiant Song was right at that time. It recognized her at first sight.
This crippled leg seemed to mock him for his arrogance, stubbornness, and the way he continued to hurt his beloved woman again and again. Those were the reasons why he pushed his woman into the arms of someone else.
He looked at Valiant Song and his expression gradually turned dark.

The success rate of pancreatic cancer with MR Linac application increased from 10 percent to 90 percent!
The Linac MR device used in radiotherapy treatment does not damage the surrounding tissues by pinpointing the tumor with a special imaging method.
Radiation therapy is frequently used in the treatment of cancer. 90% of applications are realized with the Linac device called linear accelerator. Thanks to the imaging method of this device, which delivers high-energy x-rays to the region of the patient's tumor, we know where to shoot. Previously, the camera was integrated with the devices built into the camera and imaging was done. Then a scan was done. However, all these imaging modalities showed neither tumor nor the normal tissues of the patient. For this purpose, by introducing the needle into the region of interest, metal markers were placed and the tumor was tried to be seen indirectly. Since the application could showed neither soft tissues nor tumors, the images were taken according to the bones.Today, the new device brings together the MR and Linac device and offers a better visualization.The first version of the device used in 2015 for the first time in the world; was not an x-ray, it worked with cobalt 60. Then the one that works with X-ray was developed. Currently, MR Linac devices were used only in the United States and the Netherlands and now available in a few centers in Turkey.
Image is taken instantly
When the patient is lying in the device, the MR is first taken and we can see where the tumor is located. Then, the irradiation begins. This is done both in the form of a snapshot and a video. When the patient is lying down, we can understand if the tumor is moving or not. If necessary, by asking the patient to hold his breath, we can thus limit the mobility of the tumor. But in some cases, Even when the person holds his breath, the tumor can still move.However with this device they can all be followed.
The tumor is visible and irradiated
Although the linear accelerator can be used in all tumors, it is much more useful in the treatment of tumors such as lung, prostate, abdomen, liver metastases, cancers, pancreatic cancers and others. In the treatments performed after MR Linac, the most effective results are obtained from pancreatic cancer. The success rate moved up from 10% to 90%. This success, considered as a great revolution in the treatment, could be applied to other tumors.Because the desired dose to give to the tumor, which can be seen in the residential area, can be adjusted. So, better treatment can be done.
Another feature of the device is that the location of the tumor is visible. In the past, safety limits were set around tumors.This section was actually normal tissue. With MR Linac, the tumor is visible and irradiated. During pinpoint, it is very important to see the target. This can only be done with MR and treatments can now be performed without limits.

Weekly Review
We had some very exciting events last week! On Monday, we helped plant a new tree in Rogers Park. Our class worked for over an hour to dig a large enough hole for the tree! Luckily, we had beautiful weather and when we were finished, our class received a flag for our classroom and some refreshments. There is an article and a video about the Arbor Day event on the Oregonian's website: http://www.oregonlive.com/forest-grove/index.ssf/2013/04/forest_grove_students_add_tree.html
On Tuesday, students engineered and tested balloon boats. Their goal was to design a boat that would float, balance and travel at least 100 cm. They were given a choice of materials, including recycled plastic containers, straws, balloons and masking tape. After testing their creations in the kiddie pool, everyone made improvements to their boats and tested them for a second time. Throughout this project, students practiced and documented the four components to the engineering design process: 1. Identify a problem to be solved. 2. Generate possible solutions. 3. Test solutions and collect data. 4. Analyze and interpret results.
On Thursday, we joined the other classes for the Roots and Shoots Fund Run. We had another sunny day and everyone walked or ran on the track for 20 minutes. Lily's dad got some great photos of the event, which I will share on the class photo page! Friday was the Earth Day Bike Ride and many Plovers made an appearance after school. I believe photos and video from the bike ride will be coming soon to the FGCS website.
Please contact me with any questions or concerns. Parents and students can e-mail me at email@example.com. You can also leave a voice message on the class phone, come into the classroom before or after school, or call me before 8PM at home.

COLOMBIAN trade unions joined students on a national demonstration today and announced a general strike against right-wing President Ivan Duque's neoliberal labour and pension reforms.
The Unitary Central of Workers of Colombia (CUT) said a second day of action was planned for October 17, with further strikes set to take place on November 21.
It is calling for peace in the country, with Mr Duque's administration responsible for a major increase in killings of former members of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Farc).
At least 52 have been killed this year alone, jeopardising a fragile peace deal that has been consistently undermined by Mr Duque — who threatened to scrap it entirely during his 2018 election campaign.
Changes made earlier this year led some former Farc members, led by former commander Ivan Marquez, to announce a "new phase of armed struggle."
"This is the continuation of the rebel fight in response to the state's betrayal of the Havana peace accords," Mr Marquez said in August.
"We will denounce the attacks on peace and human rights, especially the genocide against social movements," the CUT declared ahead of the action.
Students took to the streets demanding the right to protest after a number of universities in the capital Bogota were attacked by state security forces last month.
The CUT joined today's demonstration and warned Mr Duque that workers would not accept more of his neoliberal reforms and attacks on working conditions.
In a statement they said Mr Duque wants "to remedy with more of the same cuts in state expenditure on education and health … and impose new taxes on the people and continue in free trade treaties."
His administration plans to impose a new raft of austerity measures and changes to labour law including the setting of hourly wages by region, which would end the right to national collective bargaining.
Mr Duque wants to end overtime payments along with weekend and holiday pay and to scrap redundancy compensation packages.
They also warned that Mr Duque is trying to increase the state retirement age and increase pension contributions.
There is a growing fightback against right-wing leaders across Latin America. Earlier this week Ecuadorian President Lenin Moreno was forced to relocate the seat of government and impose a state of emergency due to anger over IMF reforms.

Figured gaiwan with a bowl for easy tea at work
- Price: $ 15.99
- Go to the store
Not so long ago carried away by Chinese teas, ordering witha colleague in a set of 30 different varieties of tea for aliexpress in small packages. Brewing in an ordinary cup was not very convenient, so after searching on Ali I came across an interesting option, but later I really found a couple of reviews on similar and on redlightgreen.
The device is a kind of teapot with a bowl, in which it is quite convenient to brew tea with straits.
On request "quick cup" (quick cup) orA "travel cup" search on aliexpress provides many different options for color, shape and price, respectively. I didn't really want to take a colored one, because personally I like to evaluate the color of tea on a white background.
As a result of the search, the specified lot was selected,it's true that a seller with a rather short history of sales and never ordered a quick-start machine itself, but since the eye focused on this option, I decided.
As clear from the description, there are white cupstwo types - glossy white and matte white with "cracks". After paying for the cups (I ordered two, for myself and a colleague), I left a message asking you to send a white gloss (WHITE GLAZED COLOR).
Sent pretty quickly, the package reached me for about three weeks.
There were apparently adventures along the way, the box (from under the shoes) was pretty dented on the side:
When you open the box, the product is packed in several layers of bubbled polyethylene. I was worried that ceramics could crack, but it turned out to be quite strong and not thin:
I rolled my lip for a gift in the form of a small tea bag, but at the bottom of the box I found only a bag with a shoe logo, but oh well, there is tea at work.
As you can see in the first photo, they sent menot white gloss, but white with cracks. I didn't matter at all, but if you order, keep in mind. Moreover, I wrote when placing an order and sent a personal message to which the seller replied OK.
The color of the cup is a little grayish, but it lookscool. The surface is homogeneous, without spots. The only thing at the bottom of the bowls is a rather dark point, but this is probably nit-picking (I don't know much about ceramics, maybe this is the norm).
The openings in the teapot are not perfectly aligned, just like the fin, but I think it's not a problem for tea drinking
The volume of the bowl is 70-80 ml (height about 5 cm, width about 7.5 cm)
The volume of the teapot is 100-110 ml (height about 5 cm, width about 9 cm)
In general, I can say that I am satisfied with the purchase, the high-speed guy looks the same as in the seller's photo, no worse than live. Left a positive review.
Update for those who think that 80 ml is not enough. I will explain it not in kamenty, but here. Chinese teas are brewed several times, first for about a minute, then longer with each strait. As a result, in principle, a standard cup of tea is filling up. The taste of tea is quite rich, so it's nice to drink in small sips. If you brew in a large mug, it will turn out completely wrong, or the tea is weak, you will slurp a few large cups, or if you put a lot of tea, this is already too much, because There are quite strongly tonic teas.
Over time, cracks in the dishes become colored with the color of the tea you drink. The so-called effect of "antiquity"

Canoe Accident Results in Ripley Man's Death
A 46-year old man has died in a canoe accident in Morrison County's Ripley Township. Sheriff Michel Wetzel says Richard Allen LeBlanc of Ripley Township fell into the water when his canoe capsized on a private pond Saturday afternoon. Witnesses pulled him from the pond, but their efforts and those of paramedics couldn't revive him. The Sheriff says LeBlanc apparently was not wearing a life jacket and could not swim. An autopsy is scheduled.

%0 Report %D 2018 %T Estimating the Value of Improved Distributed Photovoltaic Adoption Forecasts for Utility Resource Planning %A Pieter Gagnon %A Galen L. Barbose %A Brady Stoll %A Ali Ehlen %A Jarett Zuboy %A Trieu Mai %A Andrew D. Mills %X
Misforecasting the adoption of customer-owned distributed photovoltaics (DPV) can have operational and financial implications for utilities; forecasting capabilities can be improved, but generally at a cost. This paper informs this decision-space by using a suite of models to explore the capacity expansion and operation of the Western Interconnection over a 15-year period across a wide range of DPV growth rates and misforecast severities. The system costs under a misforecast are compared against the costs under a perfect forecast, to quantify the costs of misforecasting. Using a simplified probabilistic method applied to these modeling results, an analyst can make a first-order estimate of the financial benefit of improving a utility's forecasting capabilities, and thus be better informed about whether to make such an investment. For example, under our base assumptions, a utility with 10 TWh per year of retail electric sales who initially estimates that DPV growth could range from 2% to 7.5% of total generation over the next 15 years could expect total present-value savings of approximately $4 million if they could reduce the severity of misforecasting to within ±25%. Utility resource planners can compare those savings against the costs needed to achieve that level of precision, to guide their decision on whether to make an investment in tools or resources.%8 05/2018 %G eng %0 Generic %D 2017 %T Exploring Demand Charge Savings from Commercial Solar %A Naïm R. Darghouth %A Galen L. Barbose %A Andrew D. Mills %A Ryan H. Wiser %A Pieter Gagnon %A Lori Bird %X
Commercial retail electricity rates commonly include a demand charge component, based on some measure of the customer's peak demand. Customer-sited solar PV can potentially reduce demand charges, but the magnitude of these savings can be difficult to predict, given variations in demand charge designs, customer loads, and PV generation profiles. Moreover, depending on the circumstances, demand charges from solar may or may not align well with associated utility cost savings.
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) are collaborating in a series of studies to understand how solar PV can reduce demand charge levels for a variety of customer types and demand charges designs. Previous work focused on residential customs with solar. This study, instead, focuses on commercial customers and seeks to understand the extent and conditions under which rooftop can solar reduce commercial demand charges. To answer these questions, we simulate demand charge savings for a broad range of commercial customer types, demand charge designs, locations, and PV system characteristics. This particular analysis does not include storage, but a subsequent analysis in this series will evaluate demand charge savings for commercial customers with solar and storage.%8 07/2017 %G eng %2 LBNL-2001041 %0 Report %D 2017 %T Exploring Demand Charge Savings from Residential Solar %A Naïm R.

Barbose %A Naïm R. Darghouth %A Andrew D. Mills %X
Demand charges, which are based on a customer's maximum demand in kilowatts (kW), are a common element of electricity rate structures for commercial customers. Customer-sited solar photovoltaic (PV) systems can potentially reduce demand charges, but the level of savings is difficult to predict, given variations in demand charge designs, customer loads, and PV generation profiles. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) are collaborating on a series of studies to understand how solar PV can impact demand charges. Prior studies in the series examined demand charge reductions from solar on a stand-alone basis for residential and commercial customers. Those earlier analyses found that solar, alone, has limited ability to reduce demand charges depending on the specific design of the demand charge and on the shape of the customer's load profile. This latest analysis estimates demand charge savings from solar in commercial buildings when co-deployed with behind-the-meter storage, highlighting the complementary roles of the two technologies. The analysis is based on simulated loads, solar generation, and storage dispatch across a wide variety of building types, locations, system configurations, and demand charge designs.%8 10/2017 %G eng %2 LBNL-2001071

What does artificial intelligence mean?
Historic context
The appearance of artificial intelligence (AI) by its acronym in English, has played a key role in the beginning of a Fourth Industrial Revolution. According to the World Economic Forum, "it is disrupting almost all industries in all countries."
Artificial intelligence is a conglomeration of concepts and technologies that have different meanings for different people. According to Jeremy Achin, CEO of DataRobot- "An AI is a computer system that can perform tasks that normally require human intelligence"
Why is artificial intelligence important?
Artificial intelligence systems are critical for companies seeking to extract value from data by automating and optimizing processes. Artificial intelligence systems driven by machine learning allow companies to take advantage of their available Big Data to discover ideas and patterns that would be impossible for anyone to detect, allowing them to offer more specific and personalized communications, identify probable fraudulent transactions, and more.
Companies that do not adopt AI and machine learning technologies are destined to fall behind:
- The global expenditure on IA will grow 50% compounded annually and will reach $ 57.6 billion by 2021.
- Industries such as retail, marketing, health, fintech, insurance and more will benefit from artificial intelligence and machine learning.
- By 2020, companies driven by data prospects will get $ 1.2 trillion a year from companies that do not have a clear vision.
- 83 percent of early adopters are already gaining value from artificial intelligence and machine learning initiatives.
- The net gain in jobs resulting from the adoption of AI will be more than 5 million.
Three misconceptions about machine learning
Machine learning and artificial intelligence will replace people
The machines will not replace the work of the people. In fact, machine learning and artificial intelligence are more likely to help them do their jobs better. They also allow them to concentrate more on the fundamentally human aspects, including creativity and the creation of strategies.
While machine learning and artificial intelligence are useful in many applications, there are numerous areas for which these technologies are not effective, and which require the influence, intervention or supervision of a person. Some examples are the following:
Long-term planning
Creative or abstract thinking
Understanding of cause and effect
Decision making that requires certain knowledge and familiarity with the context
Machines learn from experiences
Unlike popular belief, machine learning does not depend on experiences, but on data. It is not enough to let a single machine try to solve a problem. Machines need to learn from data and create algorithms and then apply them to future situations. Some examples are the following:
knowledge and familiarity with the context
Machines learn from experiences
Unlike popular belief, machine learning does not depend on experiences, but on data. It is not enough to let a single machine try to solve a problem. Machines need to learn from data and create algorithms and then apply them to future situations. Some examples are the following:
A method to classify or represent the components of the data set
Metrics to evaluate or classify success
Optimization of model parameters applied to data
This is achieved by extracting a generalized explanation, such as an abstract history, from the data set, which may include complex patterns or hidden regularities that may be difficult for a person to identify. In today's financial institutions, machine learning is used for the purpose of analyzing data from transactions and detect irregularities that could be fraudulent charges. It is also useful for assessing risks and making recommendations on granting loans.
Machine learning is the same as artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence and machine learning are different concepts, but they are related. One way to see the relationship between the two is to think of artificial intelligence as a problem and automatic learning as a possible solution that tries to solve it. If the ultimate goal is that a machine can solve a problem with the cognitive abilities of intelligence (human), a possible method is the creation of algorithms from the data and its subsequent application to new and larger situations.
To better understand this distinction, we can consider that artificial intelligence faces problems that are easy for people, but difficult for machines, such as artificial vision.
Cases of use of machine learning in modern analysis
Mark Skousen, Forecasts and Strategies
The graphics chip maker Nvidia (NVDA) has a decided advantage in the technology industries of the future with high data demand. It has diversified into games, data centers, visualization and autonomous driving, all anchored in well-established artificial intelligence. It has become the undisputed leader in these markets. It is expected that its graphics processing units (GPU) will increase by 1,000 times by 2025.
"Isaac" is a platform recently launched to drive the next generation of autonomous machines, which provides artificial intelligence to robots for manufacturing, logistics, agriculture, construction and other industries. At the heart of Isaac is Jetson Xavier, the world's first computer designed specifically for robotics. With more than nine billion transistors, it offers more processing power than a powerful workstation while using one-third the energy of a light bulb.
With these incredible platforms you can find the solution that your company needs
DataRobot was based on the belief that emerging artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies should be available to all companies, regardless of size and resources. That's why we invent automated machine learning, which allows users of all skill levels to easily and quickly build and deploy machine learning models without programming or complex mathematics. DataRobot makes the power of AI accessible to users throughout your company, helping your organization to become a company driven by the AI.
Of course to get the best predictive models it is necessary that your data is composed of the information you really need, with Alteryx you can get what you are looking for with a few clicks you will design the flowchart you need without coding and you will obtain the clean information that you will upload to Datarobot where it will show you which is the appropriate predictive model to take advantage of your information and you will obtain the results you need for your business.

RWJF Awards $4.2 Million to Reduce Unnecessary Medical Procedures
The ABIM Foundation in Philadelphia has announced a $4.2 million grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in support of efforts to reduce the use of unnecessary medical tests and treatments.
The grant will enable the foundation to expand its Choosing Wisely campaign and work with health systems, hospitals, regional health organizations, and physician-led groups to encourage discussions about which tests and procedures may be unnecessary and/or potentially harmful. Since the campaign began in 2012, more than sixty medical specialty societies have created lists of tests or procedures they say are overused or inappropriate in their specialty.
The foundation will use the funds to support seven sub-grantees working to reduce the use of antibiotics for viral infections and at least two other types of overuse; create a learning network to unite grantees from Choosing Wisely programs and stakeholders from across the healthcare system; and support Consumer Reports and its role in leading patient education and outreach.
"In order to achieve a national 'Culture of Health', it is important that we ensure physicians and patients have conversations about what tests and procedures are truly needed and address the challenge of overuse within our healthcare system," said RWJF senior program officer Susan Mende. "Choosing Wisely has dramatically raised awareness of this issue, but we must turn awareness into action."

text: MakeDenverGreatAgain 86 Posted July 27, 2018 Tomorrow is the big day! Football is officially back. I'm excited for the season, but I don't get the optimistic outlook that a lot of fans and media have around Denver. This teams has A LOT of question marks moving forward, and I predict they'll finish no better than 3rd in the AFC West. I am not sold on Keenum. We're talking about an undersized QB that was benched two seasons ago (even if Jeff Fisher is responsible for the system/production) and was in the perfect situation last season in Minnesota to be successful. I do not think he's a franchise QB by any means, and doesn't live up to the contract he signed this off season. An undersized QB with one year of production behind one of the worst O-lines in football? He'll be lucky to play in a double digit number of games. Aside from QB, on offense we have question marks at both tackles, left guard and RB. Is Veldheer healthy and productive on the right side? Has Boles learned from last season and added strength at the POA and can cut down on boneheaded penalties? Our season goes as far as our offensive line takes us, and I'll be interested to see how they look to begin camp. Depth is also an issue. Running back is another area with huge question marks. Will Booker shoulder the load? How much tread does Rolls Royce have left on the tires after shouldering the load for four years at Oregon? Will DeAngelo Henderson become a contributor? To me, this is the largest question mark on offense as there is no veteran presence in the backfield. There's a starting spot to be had, who will rise up and take it? There's also a lot of optimism surrounding Phil Lindsay who had a stellar career at CU. Are his return skills enough to make the 53? PS is his ceiling IMO. Receiver is still the strength of our offense, regardless of Sanders and DT's age. Sutton should be a contributor, and I'm very intrigued to see DaSean Hamilton work out of the slot. Henderson should be cut, YUGE bust. On defense, I'm excited to see how Roby performs in a contract year. That's my biggest question mark. Does he prove himself to be a franchise corner worthy of top dollar? Or is this his last season in orange and blue. Chris Harris will be Chris Harris, but the 3rd corner spot should be a great battle in camp. The other big question mark is Darian Stewart. Will he be a camp casualty to pave the way for a younger player? Can he cement his spot in the secondary? Will Justin Simmons grow into a field general? How will Sua Cravens be utilized, and more importantly how is his body? I see a lot of people claiming he makes us better, but we also have to remember he has a history of head injuries and hasn't played football in 16 months. Jury is still out. Up front, pass rusher is the deepest position on the team with the good news surrounding Shane Ray. Now we have Barrett, Von, Ray and Chubb which should give QBs nightmares. Who else will step up at the Nost and at End. Can Adam Gotsis put aside the off field distractions and contribute? Based on these observations, I think we're facing the most pivotal year in Broncos country since Elway retired. I would have said the Tebow years, but we lucked into the second best QB of all time and put off a potential rebuild. What is Vance's leash? If we get off to a slow start will Elway make a move to save his career as the GM? With all that said, I am so happy that football is back in the Mile High City, and hope that a lot of the question marks turn into net-positives, but I am not optimistic. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arenal Volcano
Arenal Volcano (Spanish: Volcán Arenal) is an active andesitic stratovolcano in north-western Costa Rica around 90 km northwest of San José, in the province of Alajuela, canton of San Carlos, and district of La Fortuna. The Arenal volcano measures at least 1,633 metres (5,358 ft) high. It is conically shaped with a crater 140 metres (460 ft) in diameter. Geologically, Arenal is considered a young volcano and it is estimated to be less than 7,500 years old. The volcano was dormant for hundreds of years and exhibited a single crater at its summit, with minor fumaroles activity, covered by dense vegetation. In 1968 it erupted unexpectedly, destroying the small town of Tabacón. Due to the eruption three more craters were created on the western flanks but only one of them still exists today. Since 2010, Arenal has been dormant.

Hi, folks!
I am running VirtualBox 2.1 on OSX 10.5.
I would like to configure my Ubuntu VM to use the Authoxy instance running on the host to authenticate on the web proxy instead of doing it directly. Has anyone already did it? How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance,

Last year's Unleash event was a massive breakthrough for me, as I've discussed before I got to let out a lot of what was trapped inside, I told my story in all it's gory detail, to say it broke a few chains was an understatement. Last year though I was on roll, I was doing well and approached it knowing it was going to be the leap forward that it turned out to be.
This year though, the build up for me has been somewhat different, almost a complete opposite of where I was last year, this year the approach to the event has been dogged by my own state of mind, not eager anticipation, something far worse, in all honesty bordering on depression, my own mind has been haunting me over these last two weeks.
But I've just been pushing on, trying to drive through, trying to bury these feelings, kept them mostly inside and tried to give the impression that I'm okay.
The reality is I haven't been, I've been struggling, I haven't been eating properly or even drinking properly. At work I've just been getting stuck in with my job, by my own choice just working through, skipping lunch and even finding myself not having a single drink throughout my long day, it's left me worn out and tired.
So I went to Unleash yesterday, knowing I had to stop hiding and admit firstly to myself where I was, but more importantly admit it to others.
Last night's preach by Gareth hit the nail on the head, he pointed out how we as men fail to deal with our insecurities, it was just what I needed to hear.
Following that we had an impromptu match of five a side football, that lasted until midnight, it was great fun and good social time, even though between that and this afternoon's matches, we all ended up battered and bruised. My shins are missing a few patches of skin and I'm certainly not the only one!
After chatting through my issues with Tim, my room mate for the night, I turned in to get some sleep at about 2am.
Then at just after 3am, I woke, wide awake and thinking about a vision I had had just before going to sleep. Needless to say it pointed me to the book of Jonah, which I then proceeded to read, that's when I realised I'm running away from where God wants me to be too, I'm running away and hiding from the people who can help me, the people which were sharing the same building as me at this very moment, purely by hiding my feelings, it was time to stop, the messages were clear.
9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10
So today and indeed the whole weekend has been another big step forward. Even though the truth has been painful at times (the football bruises also) it's been a great weekend and great time spent with great friends.
I've been pretty honest with where I am at the moment, I spoken to both Gareth and Justin, my Pastors, about where I am and how I've been feeling, I've also arranged to meet with my Connect Group leaders before our meeting on Wednesday to speak with them about it all too.
I'm putting steps in place and dealing with it, I'm beyond hiding now, I did that before and look where that got me, an addiction, lost love and suicide moments, that could have been disastrous, there's no way I'm going back to that.
I maybe be tired now after just an hours sleep and all the football, but it's a completely different kind of tired to the feelings I arrived with, I'm not worn anymore, just tired, I'm refreshed even if everything in my life isn't right and I believe there is still more to come following this weekend, God is certainly moving for me at the moment.
I know I'm in no way the only one to get something out of this weekend, I don't actually think anyone there can say they haven't learnt something or indeed something about themselves from the weekend.
WHEN YOU WALK INTO THE ROOM by BRYAN & KATIE TORWALT
When You walk into the room, everything changes
Darkness starts to tremble at the light that you bring
When You walk into the room, every heart starts burning
And nothing matters more than just to sit here at Your feet and worship You
We Love You, and we'll never stop
We can't live without You, Jesus
We Love You, We can't get enough
All this is for You, Jesus
When You walk into the room, sickness starts to vanish
Every hopeless situation, ceases to exist
When You walk into the room, The dead begin to rise
Cause there is resurrection life in all You do
Come and consume God, all we are
We give You permission, our hearts are Yours
We want You, We want You

Hi Everyone! A big welcome to all the new readers! What's new? OMG, a busy week! Studio news flash: I love a wonky quilt is almost finished. Art quilters gathered at Cary Quilting Co. on Sunday for the Art Quilter's Salon. Find out how it went and what we learned below…. And my work is now on display at the Cary Gallery of Artists!
Yes it's true, I do love a wonky edge. Why? It's a little unexpected, and adds a bit of whimsy. As I pieced this baby, I let the shape evolve organically. However, now I have to create shaped facings for the wonky edges. You can see them pinned and ready to stitch by hand.
And the edges are pressed with steam as they are rolled under, so you don't see the facing from the front.
I used this great tutorial, which works great for straight or wonky edges!
I enjoyed making this piece and plan to make more. 😛
I had 4 intrepid ladies who came out on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon to work on their passion- art quilting. Everyone brought something they wanted help with, and I coached each person. We talked about the importance of good design and composition, and some tips for how to achieve that. I think the #1 eye opener was how much the judicious use of value makes the difference between a good piece and a yucky one. For example, Susi is working on a new piece and I had her do some little value studies. We looked at them all together and critiqued them. I think with a few tweaks they would make a fabulous little series.
Next we looked at two little curved strip piecing samples she had already made. We put them up, took a black and white image and critiqued them. We decided the larger one could improve with some darker values added, while the little one needed a few lighter areas added. I suggested she slice them up and incorporate the two pieces together by playing around with the pieces. We'll see what she decides to do….
We did so much more, but this post is already getting a little long! If you would like some help with designing your own art quilt or are stuck with a UFO, bring it along to the next Sunday Salon. It will be July 13th from 1-4 pm.
See my work and purchase it at Cary Gallery of Artists
