The Colossal Colosseum
"While the Colosseum stands, Rome shall stand; when the Colosseum falls, Rome shall fall; when Rome falls, the world shall fall." – Venerable Bede
After almost 2,000 years… after all the earthquakes, storms, lightnings, plunderers, wars (including the bombings of WWII), and all the other destructions brought about by forces of nature and humans, the gigantic Colosseum today firmly stands in the center of Rome… it is still the world's most famous sports arena and the most famous structure in Rome. It's a physical reminder of Rome's imperial power, which it was originally designed to demonstrate.
In 72 AD, Emperor Vespasian, whose reign was from 69 to 79 AD, ordered the Colosseum to be built at the site of Emperor Nero's Golden House with a huge statue of Nero called the Colossus statue, where Colosseum got its name.
It's a huge scale architectural symbol, sending a strong and loud message to the world that Rome was still powerful… a flagrant rising after its fall under Nero's devastating rule and the great fire of Rome in 64 AD that severely damaged the city. Vespasian did not live long enough to see its completion for he died of natural causes in 79 AD. It opened in 80 AD, during the reign of his eldest son Titus but he too, did not live long enough to see its completion for after just two years on the throne, he died of an incurable disease. The Colosseum was finally completed during the reign of Titus' younger brother Domitian, who reigned as emperor from 81-96 AD.
The arch, which became one of the symbols of the Roman's technical achievement, was all around the Colosseum, with all 80 arches serving as entrance gates.
Entering this enormous amphitheater with a height of 48 meters on a land of 5 acres, I could imagine when it was still used for entertainment, which ran for almost 400 years. Imagine around 50,000 blood-thirsty spectators seated on concrete tiers according to rank, around an oval arena where the thrilling and dangerous chariot races were held… where Roman gladiators fought for their lives… where people were made to fight wild animals!
At the inaugural games, thousands of wild animals were killed, criminals and prisoners-of-war were executed, and gladiatorial combats lasted for more than a hundred days.
An exhibit in the Colosseum shows some faunal remains which were found during the excavation.
There are available tours which will walk you through tunnels and underground dungeons where the wild animals and gladiators were organized and waited for their turns to be lifted up to the fighting arena.
A massive wall of over 16 feet tall was built around the arena to protect the spectators from attacks by wild animals and above that wall is a platform, the first tier where the imperial party – the Emperor and his family, Senators, Vestal Virgins, and other VIPs were seated.
As the seating of the spectators was arranged according to social status, the 2nd tier was for the knights, the third for the plebeians or ordinary citizens and the fourth was for the common women.
This is an illustration inside the amphitheater during a game in ancient times.
It seems like an extreme irony that the Colosseum ultimately became a symbol of the international campaign against death penalty. Indeed, what could be a more blatant symbol to juxtapose such intense issues than the Colosseum? The people behind this are not only rigid adherents to the cause…they're so creative to have thought of this, including to change the light from white to gold every time there's a death penalty commutation or abolition anywhere in the world.
The Colosseum is today the most famous structure in Rome and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with a whopping revenue of over 48 million US dollars from over 6.5 million people who visited the place in 2015.
There's always a long queue to get inside so it's better to get a skip the line guided tour, which will include the Palatine Hill and The Roman Forum, as the three are situated in the same area.

Yes, your humble host, the Dead Doctor, has been there, seen it. He has experienced the horrors spread by the bunch of fiends called Dead United.
What to say about those franconian freaks? First, they are cheeky as hell.
Dead United don't give a wet fuck about convetions, they do it for the fun of it. They take the word PUNK in its true form. They mix their own songs with cover versions and are even not afraid to perform a really hot version of the well known Time Warp.
When performing live Dead United are like a really weird mix of classic Horror Punk and the Rocky Horror Picture Show, spiked with a good amount of insanity. Not only the band itself creeps the stage, no, they are accompanied by a bunch of henchmen, mummies and the well known Dr. Horror who leaves his wicked tomb for their shows.
Your beloved Dead Doctor knows that some voices are croaking about them not being "true" Horrorpunks, but hey, who gives a fuck?
Dead United guarantee a good time filled with weird romance, blood, gore and ripped out bowels. If you get the cance to see them, move your rotting corpse out to watch and listen to that bunch of freaks rocking the stage!

Something is simmering in the heart of Essex, and it's not the latest gossip from 'TOWIE', oh no. This is a five piece band called Bambi, who aren't just bubbling to the surface, they're bursting through it. Debut single, 'Reap From The Dying Love' is a perfect example. With a moody quality similar to that of White Lies, it slowly burns and erupts into something more epic. The echoey vocals overlapped with shimmering guitars are enough to send chills down your spine, but Bambi have more of a backbone when it comes to their music. B-Side, 'A Just Nor Fix', is more upbeat and inter-twinned with romanticised vocals and feather weight guitar solos. It falls somewhere delicately between Two Door Cinema Club and Blaenavon.
However, the truth is, you can't really put your finger on where this bands influences come from, every song is unique. Slipping in and out of consciousness their music can go from deep and weighty to being dream like and it takes little effort to lose yourself within them. One thing's for sure, keep your eyes open and your ears even more open, we could be seeing big things from this band in the near future.
We were lucky enough to ask Miles the Bassist some questions about their music:
Bambi. As in the cartoon deer, or does the name have a more subtle meaning?
Probably our single launch at Proud Camden, simply as lots of our friends came and we took the express train down to pardy town.

A Traditional-Style '32 Homebuilt to Drive
Cris McMann was 15 when he was first smitten by a 1932 Ford coupe. He remembers that it was full fendered with yellow paint, black rolls 'n' pleats upholstery, baby Moons, and just the right rake.
Not long after that he bought his first car—not a '32, but a '55 Ford Crown Vic. That was traded for a '54 Chevy with a Cadillac engine. Then came a '55 Bel Air, followed by a Gasser-style '56 Chevy. Many more cars and motorcycles followed, but the Deuce three-window made a strong impression, although it would be almost 50 years before Cris would buy the one you see here.
His opportunity came in an unusual way when Cris ran over a deer while driving his Pantera-powered '27 Model T. The car went airborne and the insurance company called it totaled. With nothing to drive, Cris started searching for his next project. He found the '32 on Craigslist, swapped a Harley and some cash for it, and brought it home to Northwestern Oregon.
The coupe had been advertised as a roller with a running big-block, Mustang II frontend, '32 boxed frame, and triangulated four-link. In reality, the engine was frozen up and unbuildable, and the frame was warped from one end to the other. But the 'glass body was in good shape. One out of three ain't bad, right?
Cris removed the boxing plates from the Speedway '32 frame, cleaned everything up and straightened the warped 'rails. Boxing plates were reinstalled along with a fabricated K-member, front and rear crossmembers, and motor mounts. Notching the frame at both ends and modifying and flipping the stock Model A front crossmember helped drop the car. The front spreader bar is curved to follow the shape of the 5-inch dropped Magnum I-beam axle. Ride and handling are improved by Pro Shocks, mono-leaf springs, and a modified Speedway Panhard bar. At the rear, Cris built a triangulated four-link, using drilled split wishbones as the lower links to match the front 'bones and locate the 3.90-geared Ford 8-inch. Total Cost Involved Engineering coilovers smooth out the ride.
A Corvette master cylinder, CPP proportioning valve, and dual-diaphragm booster control the brakes. Wilwood four-piston front discs with vented rotors are camouflaged by a set of Functional Fakes drum covers to keep things looking traditional. The rear brakes are genuine drums with finned covers.
The fiberglass three-window coupe body is from Bad Ass Rods and features a 3-1/2-inch chop. Cris dropped it on the frame with a hot rod rake, with the steel Hagan hood modified to fit. He added some black to the DuPont (Axalta) Centari Ford Bright Blue before loading the spray gun, and coated the sprayed finish with three coats of clear. Bob "Spirit" Spencer added the perfect amount of pinstriping to dress up the blue. The art deco Speedball Wings on the hood top are vintage trim emblems for Harley leather saddlebags. The turn signal headlights are 10-inch aftermarket reproductions. Cadillac taillight housings were made from bullet center caps for wheels.
Wheel Vintiques manufactures their Gennie wheels with a universal 10-bolt pattern, so Cris milled the back of the wheel studs and added dummy lug nuts to give the wheels "a cool beefy look." The big 'n' little style is completed by matching the 16-inch wheels with Coker Excelsior radials, sized 7.50R16 and 6.00R16.
A Ford Cobra air cleaner cover and valve covers call out the 302 engine, balanced, blueprinted, and bored 0.030-over. An Edelbrock Performer Series intake and carburetor feed the Ford and Speedway headers carry the exhaust to 3-foot ceramic-coated lakes cones located where Cris can hear them the best. A Lokar-shifted C4 with a shift kit is hooked to a custom one-piece driveshaft from Driveline Service.
The Dolphin speedometer and quad gauge are housed in a custom billet dash insert that matches the style of the Speedball Wings. Vintique supplied the '40 Ford steering wheel, mounted on a CPP tilt column. The heater is from Vintage Air. For the upholstery, Cris relied on Chuck Corbin at Corbin's Upholstery in Forest Grove, Oregon, for a custom bench and a cockpit full of tuck ' n' roll distressed leather.
Cris finished the coupe in time to take it to the 2013 Northwest Deuce Days in Victoria, British Columbia, where he and his wife, Linda, had a great time driving it around. He's been driving it around ever since. Now, there's another project in the works. Remember that Model T with the Pantera drivetrain? Cris still has the car and is dropping a '40 Ford Deluxe coupe body onto the T frame. Look for that one out there on the road later this season!

If you run a small local business, you already know what advertising a coupon, freebie, or discount can do for your business. But did you know that offering this same coupon on your website can actually help your website, as well? It's true - let's count the ways.
Contribute to your social networks.
A coupon is an easy link to post on Twitter, Facebook, Friendfeed, and Linked-IN. Make sure your coupon actually offers your network something of value that your contacts will want, and doesn't just appear to be spam. For example, 10% off of something might be more likely perceived as a sales gimmick, whereas a "freebie," a "BOGO" or a "half-off" offer might more likely be a way to reward your loyal customers who have connected with you online.
Increase traffic from the social networks and search engines.
If you post your coupon or offer on your social networks, and tag it using keywords people are likely to be searching for on Google or the other search engines, you're likely to increase traffic from potential customers. If you run a local business, be sure to include the name of your city in your offer and in the tags, and be sure to be very specific when titling your post.
Encourage repeat traffic.
If your website visitors find your offer useful, they may be inclined to add you to their daily feed and/or click on other areas of your website to see what else you have going on. Make sure it is easy to do both from your coupon/offer page. You may also want to consider offering something free for subscribing to your blog's feed or newsletter.
Track sales results from your website.
Correctly coding your coupon or offer can help you track just exactly how many sales you are making as a result of traffic to your website. This can be done through offer "codes," or, for walk-in business, by creating a unique, easily-recognizable coupon just for website customers.

Now and Not Yet
God continues to make and reestablish covenants with people, and people continue to break them. But God is persistent and patient. There will be no end to God's pursuit of us.
God first made a covenant with Noah, then with Abraham, renewed with Isaac, Jacob, King David, Solomon. Now the people have strayed so far, they have been exiled from their homes and their land. They have forgotten the covenant God made with them. They have forgotten God.
But God has not forgotten them. This time, God will write the covenant, not on stone tablets, but on people's hearts. They will not have to remind each other to learn about God -- they will know God in the core of their being.
This is an interesting idea -- one that has been promised and offered, yet has still not come fully to fruition. On any given day I know God in the core of my being. I know God is with me, and God's presence is palpable. On other days, I feel quite empty. My search for God's presence becomes academic. And it needs to be. When I book-learn more about God, God then becomes more real once again. In a new way, but real just the same.
God's promise lives in the space we call, "now and not yet." The promise is now, but it is also not yet fully realized. We live in the tension between what God promises/what God desires for this world, and the world we actually live in. God is here, and yet not here. I know God, and yet I do not know God. Our world has God's fingerprints all over it, and yet it is damaged and depleted.
Maybe it's ok to live in the now and not yet. Maybe both can live somewhat comfortably in the same space. Maybe I can revel in knowing God while I am still learning all I can about God. I can know God written on my heart, and still look forward to the day I know God face to face.
Narrative Lectionary Daily Devotions written by Kace Leetch from Clergy Stuff.
Narrative Lectionary Text: Jeremiah 31:31-37
The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah. It will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt—a covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, says the Lord. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. No longer shall they teach one another, or say to each other, "Know the Lord," for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord; for I will forgive their iniquity, and remember their sin no more.
Thus says the Lord, who gives the sun for light by day and the fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the Lord of hosts is his name: If this fixed order were ever to cease from my presence, says the Lord, then also the offspring of Israel would cease to be a nation before me forever. Thus says the Lord: If the heavens above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth below can be explored, then I will reject all the offspring of Israel because of all they have done, says the Lord.

Ives says Illinois taxpayer flight a result of Rauner's broken promises
State Rep. Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton) is pointing to a recent Wall Street Journal article that Gov. Bruce Rauner's betrayal of taxpayers on fiscal issues.
The "Illinois Drives People Away" themed article highlights Fitch Ratings' findings that the state's unfunded pension liabilities now stand at 22.8 percent.
"In 2014, Gov. Rauner ran on a reform agenda that would grow Illinois' economy," Ives, who is challenging Rauner in the 2018 Republican primary, said in a press release. "The report in the Wall Street Journal, one of the most reputable and well-respected newspapers in the nation, dramatically highlights Benedict Rauner's betrayals on his fiscal promises."
While Rauner touted himself as a "career business builder" during his 2014 campaign against Pat Quinn, Ives points out that the Wall Street Journal article concluded that Illinois has lost a record $4.75 billion in adjusted gross income to other states in 2015 alone, with millennials accounting for more than a third of net outflow.
'While Florida, with zero income tax, was the top destination for Illinois expatriates, the Illinois Policy Institute notes that Illinois lost income and people on net to all of its neighbors – Wisconsin (6,000 people based on claimed exemptions), Indiana (8,200), Iowa (1,900), Missouri (2,000) and Kentucky (1,100)," Ives added in the release.
Ives added the report shows Rauner has also fell short on promises he made about rolling back the income tax rate and lowering property taxes.
According to Ives, in a number of ads at the time, Rauner proposed enacting a freeze on local property taxes that would not be removable without voter approval. Ives added the reality is that property taxes in Cook County and Chicago collar counties now stand as the highest in the country, short of California and the Northeast.
Back in 2014, Ives said Rauner also vowed to replace traditional pensions for public workers with 401(k)-style retirement plans. She highlights that the Wall Street Journal article now concludes "taxes may increase as Democrats scrounge for cash to pay for pensions."

The Michelin Inspectors comments for The Kenny were....
Fresh ingredients, capably prepared, simply a good meal
"It might be painted 'stealth' grey but this smart Victorian-style pub stands out a mile for its warm neighbourhood atmosphere. The menu evolves throughout the week and is a curious mix of the traditional and the modern."
We're rather happy with that!

Shortly after Grier's rise to Internet fame, he joined the touring group Magcon (Meet and Greet Convention), a convention where fans could meet and interact with Internet personalities. There were multiple shows in the major cities of the U. S. between 2013 and 2014. Other Vine celebrities on the tour included Cameron Dallas, whom he met over the app, Matthew Espinosa, Jack Gilinsky, Jack Johnson, Aaron Carpenter, Taylor Caniff, Shawn Mendes, Jacob Whitesides, Carter Reynolds, Mahogany Lox, and his brother Hayes Grier. In early 2014, Grier along with a few other members quit Magcon as they felt that it limited their future careers and were interested in pursuing other goals. In summer of 2014 at 16 years of age, Grier moved to Los Angeles where he bought his first apartment with Dallas so they could be closer to their management (26MGMT) and to also pursue careers in acting. The two along with their photographer Bryant Eslava lived there for nine months until they were evicted. Grier currently lives in a new house located in Beverly Hills. After moving to California, Grier started online schooling to complete his high school education which he has recently graduated from.

Hype Concert at the Roundhouse
The Hype marked the first meeting of David Bowie and Mick Ronson. Bowie's drummer John Cambridge had played with Ronson in Hull band The Rats, and was keen to get him in Bowie's outfit. Their first engagement was a John Peel session on 5 February 1970, which was followed on the 22nd by an appearance at The Roundhouse supporting Noel Redding's Fat Matress. The group dressed up in superhero costumes, with Bowie as Rainbowman, bassist Tony Visconti as Hypeman, Ronson as Gangsterman, and Cambridge as Cowboyman; their special powers remain a mystery, but arguably this gig marks the birth of glam.

Where's Marc Bolan & T Rex? Marc bought glam to the masses,and enabled Bowie to become accepted
Smallone, Berkshire
I was at a David Bowie concert at the Roundhouse (part of a Sunday Imposion) in mid 1970. At that time 16 year old "hippie's" from suburbia like myelf saw David Bowie as a one hit wonder. He came on stage wearing what looked like a long dress and played an acoustic guitar. He sang some fey hippie-ish folkish and camp songs about Shepton Mallet and what appeared to be a Watership Down influenced rabbit story. He was booed off stage after two numbers. I heard nothing more about him until a year plus later when he reappeared as Ziggy Stardust and took glam rock into a more radical post Marc Bolan direction; which I followed with glee afixing tinsel, glitter and stick on stars and dressing in the new satin and stack heel look bought at Kenny market.

Survey: Students' Emotional Health at 25-Year Low
(LOS ANGELES) -- The emotional health of college freshmen has dropped to its lowest level in 25 years, according to an annual survey of full-time college students at four-year colleges.
The survey, The American Freshman: National Norms Fall 2010, was conducted by UCLA's Higher Education Research Institute and involved 200,000 students. The number of freshmen who said their emotional health was "below average" has risen steadily, according to the report.
Only 52 percent rated themselves as "above average" in emotional health, down from 64 percent in 1985.
New York University recently overhauled its mental health services to provide around-the-clock help and relaxation programs after a rash of suicides.
"They are having to adjust to new academics, new friends, sometimes a new city and a new living situation," said Zoe Ragouzeos, director of counseling and wellness services at New York University.
That stress is compounded by a bad economy.
"Will they have a job waiting at the other end after spending $60,000 to $80,000 on a college education?" asked Brian Van Brunt, director of counseling at Western Kentucky University and president of the American College Counseling Association. "They are struggling like no generation before with the question, 'Is college worth it?'"
College students say the pressure ratchets up significantly after freshman year as they move closer to graduation and must secure internships and, eventually, jobs in a weak economy.

The STBG funds can be used for a wide range of transportation purposes within the urban area. The CMAQ funds can be used for transportation projects that will contribute to meeting the attainment of national air quality standards within the Clark County Vancouver Air Quality Maintenance Area (basically the Vancouver, Camas, and Washougal urban areas).
These federal funds require a minimum 13.5% local match. In order to receive federal funds, the applicant must have either a 'Certification Acceptance' (CA) status or have a CA agency agree to manage their project. Also, projects are required to meet regional screening criteria. Project applications are due to RTC on Friday, July 12, 2019.
Project application, accident analysis
worksheet, selection criteria, Schedule, Programming Guidebook, and the Regional
Transportation Advisory Committee call for projects

Have you ever stopped and entered a new store just because your attention was caught by its signage or storefront? Just like an attractive storefront design, a good website can drive more business towards you. Experts cannot stress enough the importance of establishing an online presence, particularly by those who own small businesses. Part of having a good website is getting the perfect domain name. This is your signage that will tell people to check you out. Here are tips in ensuring that the domain name you choose not only fits your company but makes sure that it will drive the right people to look up your website.
Stick to your company name
If you already have a registered name for your business, it is best to just use that for your domain name as well. The only barrier with this tip is when the domain name has already been bought by somebody else. In this case, you would either have to buy the name from the owner or think of adding more keywords to your existing company name for your domain.
Make a list of possible keywords
If you don't want to utilize your company's name or if it already registered as a domain name by another entity, you can always resort to using a different name for your website. They key here is to come up with words that will best describe your company. Come up with five or more phrases or terms that will best give the picture of what your company does or offer. For example, if your company sells office supplies in Chicago, you can come up with keywords like: office needs, supplies, affordable, supplier, and Chicago. Now all you need to do is find a combination of these keywords that will sound good and is easy to type. Keep in mind that you don't need to use all of the keywords that you've listed. You can go forwww.AffordableOfficeSuppliesChicago.com orwww.OfficeNeedsChicago.com.
Never use domain names that resemble any brand or company name that is already established
If you don't want to get into legal trouble with big companies, never choose a domain name that is a few keystrokes away from the name of an already established brand. Every year, small businesses get sued for using names that are plural, misspelled, or joke versions of brand names like Starbucks, FedEx, etc. Of course, some people might think that this is actually a good way of getting more traffic towards their websites. At least when people type the original name wrong, they accidentally land on their site. Despite the increase in traffic, the risk of getting sued and losing thousands of dollars is still there. It is better to drive more traffic to your small business's website the hard way.
Make sure that domain name is easy to type, say, and memorize
People are getting busier and more time-pressed by the day. These busy people will not take the time to memorize or type your domain name if it is too long or complicated. This is why it really important to choose one that is simple, both to type and memorize. Some experts claim that using the letters c, z, and q, among others, is something to be avoided. More than ease of typing, if your domain name is easy to say, people are more likely to share it with their friends or associates.
Go for the Dot-Com extension
For catering to a worldwide market, your best option for being recognized as a serious business is to opt for a domain with a .com extension. If you are aiming to target a specific geographic base, it may be a better idea to simply include the place as a keyword in the domain name rather than apply for a local extension. Keep in mind that the average, non-tech savvy, Internet users put more trust on .com sites over other domain names that end with a .org or .net.

By Jared Auchter
Have you ever found yourself in one of these situations? You're driving down the road and all of a sudden the guy in front of you stops short, or a deer jumps out in front of your vehicle. You slam on your brakes and what happens? All the stuff that you had sitting on the seat next to you goes flying off and mixes all up on the floor. Or perhaps you're someone whose car is also your mobile office. You want to be able to keep all your gear/supplies ready and at the go but as the week goes by, what happens? Some how all that stuff finds it way under your seats, between your seats and or lost.
So what should we do about all that? In my humble opinion, the folks at Duluth Trading Company came up with a pretty clever solution. The Cab Commander is a great way to finally be able to keep your vehicle clean and organized. Tons of pockets for everything from pens, to flashlights, ID cards, cell phones, umbrellas and even a thermos holder. I have owned one of these for almost a year now and I absolutely love it. The material that Duluth used in constructing the Cab Commander is strong and very durable. The feature that I love the most about this product is such a simple one. The strap that holds the Cab Commander to the headrest also doubles as a shoulder strap allowing you to carry this from your vehicle to your job site and back with no problems what so ever.

Elpida Hadzi-Vasileva: Fragility @ Fabrica Gallery
The first word that comes to mind when visiting Elpida Hadzi-Vasileva's installation is simply 'wow'. Visually spectacular yet deeply unnerving, "Fragility" is a magnificent example of recycling i.e. taking a material usually considered waste and re-using it.
Vasileva uses an organic membrane used to hold vital organs together in animals, cleaning and treating it before laying it carefully onto plastic sheeting. These create translucent forms that play with light. The effect is striking, with many different elements to explore.
The simplicity of the structures is the most impressive element of the piece and gives it gravitas. Rather than over-complicating or focusing too much on the "animal" element, it dramatically transforms the material from organic to another artistic material. It creates a suspension of disbelief and allows you to find solace in the chapel that's created and marvel at the architectural beauty. The amazing roof and the little knaves around the outside of where the altar would be reveal a knowledge and admiration of churches found in the artist.
As the time went on, I became aware of unsettling details. In places blood has pooled during the treating, there is a distinct red line in the midst of the beautiful white vessels and reminding me of the organic origins of this ghostly material.
The great thing about this piece is its ability to conjure a complete and utter subjective experience for each viewer. Being unreligious myself, I found the overall structure of the piece, the "church" element, was not as provocative as the materials used. I found the visuality of the piece awe-inspiring but not necessarily emotional, preferring instead to admire the scientific and clinical process. Others, however, would look at the piece and get a very different response according to your own feelings upon the church-like structure of the piece – the unifying factor being the undeniable presence and awareness of death present within you when viewing the piece.
I loved this exhibition and would urge anybody to visit Fabrica, it's a special place. Particularly right now.
Please see below for the interview with Elpida Hadzi-Vasileva. Be warned, IT WILL affect your initial experience. If I were you I wouldn't watch it until after you've seen it for yourself!

Success at Cambridge's first Cyclo-Cross event!/
Milton Country Park saw over 400 riders this past weekend taking part in the
penultimate round of the Eastern Cyclo-Cross League, the first time this event has
been held in the city.
The event was organised by Cambridge Junior Cycling Club (CJCC), with help from
C6 Bikes, a local specialist bike shop, with premises in Waterbeach, four miles north
of Cambridge. CJCC regularly hold off road coaching and skill sessions on a
Saturday afternoon at Milton Country Park.
All age categories were well represented. It was particularly pleasing the event
enjoyed a number of local junior entries – over 140 entrants were aged 14 years and
younger – and many riders travelled in from much further afield to participate in
Cambridge's first Cyclo-Cross race.
After several days of heavy rain made some areas of the course more challenging,
the day itself brought bright sunshine for the spectators to enjoy and for the
competitors to experience fast racing conditions. The course was widely praised for
its design and technical detail, utilising the unique topography of wooded areas
within the park. Racing families and spectators were also to enjoy the recreational
facilities of the park including its café and play areas.
The Eastern Cyclo-Cross league is made up of 16 rounds which take place
throughout East Anglia over the winter, with competitors of all abilities ranging from
under 8s to 60 plus. Prizes are awarded for each race, and trophies for the overall
winners of the league.
Stephen James Senior winner said "This is one of the most enjoyable and involving
courses I have ridden all season and could easily be developed into an amazing

Hi everyone! I'm Umphie :)
I just got Groupthink privileges, and I am super excited, so I thought I would introduce myself. First of all, thank you to Slay Belle and Chritter, who trusted me with posting privileges on this website!
I haven't been a commenter for very long (perhaps you remember me from this comment, which got the most likes of anything I've ever said), but I have been a lurker of Jezebel since 2010. I work in the US federal government and I live in the Washington, DC area. I'm not comfortable saying much more than that about where I work, but I can say that I am paid to be able to debate / converse about anything.
I am currently dating a transgender woman. I try not to be a shitty ally to the transgender community. Shitty allies are my number one pet peeve and my current crusade. For instance, I don't think really anything I have to say about transgender issues is terribly important — because I don't actually experience critical struggles. I just hug a girl that does, and I don't deserve a gold star just for being a good person.
See the picture below, which is a representation of "voices" to scale, in my opinion. As you can see, trans people are such a small group, they're not even readable. (PS I stole this graphic from the internet, it's not mine.)
What else... I have a bunch of tumblrs. I love cats and cute things. Rain. Coffee. Reading. Writing. You know, what everyone else says.
Actually I am currently in the process of moving to a LGBT friendly apartment situation and I am completely overwhelmed by how many books I have. Like I actually found myself staring at my bookcase helplessly this morning before work.

At a recent IRC leadership event in Singapore Mr Vivek Bhatia, the Asia Pacific Regional CEO of engineering giant Thyssen Krupp, spoke on leadership transformation.
Specifically, he explored the key requirements of successful leadership within the 4th industrial revolution; the digital age. As with industrial revolutions past, the core focus remains the creation of value. However, the difference now is the 'VUCA' world in which we operate – one which is Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous. This has an impact at all levels: political, social, economic and environmental.
Within this context Bhatia suggested that leaders need to:
Of course, leaders do not have the luxury of dealing with each of these one at a time and so the challenge is weaving the four into a concurrent narrative.
The other challenge comes from the fact that change impacts organisations at such a high speed and from avenues not previously expected. In addition, while technology is a great enabler, when it comes to leadership, as a tool it can sometimes be more of a hindrance than a help.
In the time of Industry 4.0, it is the capacity of leaders to transform their organisations, enabling them and their teams to adapt to the changing environment which will be the true mark of sustainable success.

Kristen and Sean's Wedding on the Spirit of Ethan Allen/
The day could not have been more beautiful for Kristen and Sean! They had an adorable first look on the Burlington Waterfront before boarding the boat for the ceremony. So many little details went into their wedding that made it even more special. There were butterflies in Kristen's bouquet in remembrance of Kristen's grandmother and the dog on the cake was an actual cut out of their dog Keena's profile, just to name a few. I think my absolute favorite moment was during Sean's vows when he promised "to always have puppies".

Another installment of the Tempest Papers. Letters from Tempest the cat as she sails with part of the family on a sailboat through the Bahamas (and onward) to the other part of her family who is back home on land (namely her favorite human, Paris aka @loliboofae )
Dear Paris,
How are you? Good to hear. Glad you're fine.
You want to know how I am?
Bloody fabulous. That little bitch Cinnamon (yes, she is a female dog and thus a literal bitch, but in this case, I'm using the profanity version of the word) nearly took my head off today. Don't let the stupid look fool you, she is a psycho-terror beast. I'm afraid for my life.
I mean, was I right near her bowl of dog food? Perhaps. Was I teasing her just a little? Perhaps. STILL. I don't think that's a reason for her to remove my head from my body. Damn. She needs to get a sense of humor.
Anyway, I may have pissed myself a little over that. It was a bit scary for a second. I could have died, and then who would write to you? Nobody, that's who.
I'm thinking that you should send me some body armour. Do they make that for cats? Nevertheless, I'm sure you could come up with something useful. If you could get started on that, it might make the difference between me living a nice long life and being turned into cat soup by this viscious little beast. (Oh, my. Cat soup sounds like catsup. Yikes. Do you think the condiment is made of cats? Surely not! Hmmm. I must research this.)
Here's hoping that you're doing better than me,
Queen of the pets, Overlord of the floating castle, Nearly writing to you from the ghost world because of that horrible dog your parents keep around for no discernable reason.

Police investigating the death of Terry Fox (46) who was killed after being struck by a car at Christmas have issued another appeal.
Mr Fox died as a result of his injuries after the incident on the Moy Road near Armagh on December 27 last year.

Creech: Post Oak Little League embarks on trip of a lifetime
On a field tucked in between live oak trees behind T.H. Rogers School on San Felipe, a handful of 12-year-olds worked on defensive drills.
A grounder to shortstop leads to a 6-4-3 double play.
A bunt to third base leads to the easy out at first base.
The players applaud and cheer for each other as they easily field each ball.
It was as normal as any little league baseball practice anywhere.
Defense drills, batting practice, helmets and cleats scattered across a fenced-in dugout.
But this practice was the last one the Post Oak All-Stars would have before taking the trip every little league team dreams of.
The team left Saturday for Williamsport, Pa., where they will compete in the Little League World Series.
It's been a whirlwind of a week that started at the Southwest regional in Waco.
From then, they were back home for three days before leaving again.
"It's a quick turnaround and I thought we would have more time," coach David Rook said. "But we are enjoying all of it."
After practice on Friday, several were off to finish buying school supplies and uniforms.
Later that night, they were welcomed by the Houston Astros to watch batting practice and meet some of their idols, like Alex Bregman - who 10 of the players on the team called their favorite baseball player.
The sheer joy bursting out of the group of young men is a reminder of everything perfect about sports.
They've worked hard, they've worked together and they've achieved a goal as a team.
It doesn't get much better than that.
"It's hard to get on them in practice," Rook said. "They've already done so well and they are so happy to have made it to this point. But we'd like to do a little more."
It might be a little hard to wrap their heads around it now, but the team won't have any trouble getting back into competitive mode this week.
The bulk of this group has been playing baseball together for about five years.
Their strength is in their defense. They practice hard and have become really cohesive over the last few years.
Competition will be steep, but the Post Oak All-Stars can handle it.
They'll play their first game Thursday night against the representative from New England.
The next several days will be full of media opportunities, collecting uniforms, learning the lay of the land.
A lot of bells and whistles certainly.
But on Thursday, they'll be back where they belong.
A baseball field.
And that's where they shine.
It's where they are unapologetically comfortable.
During a defensive drill on Friday, an outfielder made a diving catch and his teammates started humming the ESPN highlight theme.
A moment later, an infielder leapt to stop a line drive.
The batter, who was heading to first when he was called out yelled "Biggio!" and high fived his teammate before jogging off the field.
They applaud each other and support each other.
They also learn from each other.
"We are going to make mistakes," Rook told his team that morning. "That's okay. But we should learn from our mistakes and from the mistakes of others. That's how we will keep getting better."
Their season will come to an end soon. And it will do so on the biggest stage for Little League baseball.
But they'll use every inning of every game to improve.
And they will enjoy every second of it.
From the questionnaires, the ESPN interviews, meeting their favorite players, wearing new sharp uniforms and representing the area, it's going to be a wild few days.
"It's happening quickly, but they've worked hard for this and I think it's going to be a great experience," Rook said.
It won't just be a great experience for the team. It will be for their city.
The Houston area is already embracing the team and will undoubtedly cheer them on in the next part of the tournament.
"We've been getting phone calls and emails from other teams that are supporting us," Rook said. "It's been really great so far."
The Post Oak All-Stars have what it takes to win it all.
They've done plenty of winning to get to this point.
It all started on a quaint baseball field off San Felipe Street.
It can end in Williamsport, Pa. in a couple weeks in the Little League World Championship.

Over the years, ladies have come back face to face with the battle of body shapes. this can be to not say that solely ladies face weight and body form problems, men do too. But, through the decennium ladies are influenced by the ever dynamic 'fashionable' body form. I actually have devised a timeline to indicate however ladies from the first decennium to today's ladies see their body otherwise and the way abundant pressure they face with pictures in magazines.
1920s - Jazz Age
The Twenties caused the 'New Woman'. ladies would wear corsets to restrain their frame and bind their breasts down so as to possess a additional boy like figure. Curves were a issue of the past. The hair would be take away a bob. The boylike figure was so as to indicate that girls were adequate to men and will do what they needed.
1930s - Post Depression
The Thirties sealed method for the top of the boylike examine a additional slender and sleek figure. The natural waist line was reintroduced permitting ladies to regain their muliebrity.
1940s - The War Years
The Forties saw ladies regain their curves. Their gender gained them a style of power over the males. This reflects the start of the operating lady once the lads were away fighting the war. Hem lines rose throughout the time of the war so as to avoid wasting on material thus additional leg was shown. On the entire, ladies were changing into additional powerful.
1950s - Recovery
The known Marilyn Monroe was renowned during this decade. Once again, women's curves were celebrated and that they became additional female than the previous decades. however however long would this last? we've got seen women's shapes dynamic enormously in a very area of a few of decades.
1960s - Social Upheaval
As feminism took over, ladies began to travel against what's seen because the 'norm' and move aloof from their domestic duties, family relationship and also the role of a better half. Twiggy, known for her stick skinny body, one thing that today's society is incredibly acquainted with, came on the scene and have become known long. Curves were out and also the boylike figure was 'back in fashion', therefore to talk.
1970s - Sexual Revolution
Curves area unit back again! Boobs and hips were yet again celebrated. sure this ever dynamic body form of Curvy...Boyish...Curvy...Boyish and then on is crazy right?
1980s - Prosperity
The 80s saw a fitness craze and girls figuring out to realize those should have abs. Here's Cindy Crawford, one among the primary super models, giving a effort. because the video below portrays, women's deficient effort outfits in conjunction with their toned abs outlined the which means of 'sexy'. this can be once more just like today's society wherever gymnasium memberships area unit the norm and 'women only' fitness categories area unit growing in quality.
1990s - economic process
The 90s saw Kate moss arrive on the scene and modelling changing into proverbial for its skinny models.
2000 - Celebrity Influence
As we have a tendency to all understand, celebrities have fitness instructors to stay them toned and in form. This leads America 'normal' folks to ceaselessly follow diets and count calories. Catwalk models and a few celebrities area unit stick skinny, nearly sick trying. The influence the media and celebrities have over the general public leaves ladies either desirous to gain curves or slim down off of bound areas. But, celebrities also are being slated for his or her body shapes. Adele was referred to as fat by designer Karl Lagerfeld. And Kim Kardashian is praised for her busty body.
2007 - Giving Real ladies an opportunity
In 2007, Coleen Rooney's program 'Coleen's Real Women' went against the scale zero craze and place traditional sized ladies forward to use for advertising and modelling jobs.
2012 - The Art of Airbrushing
As we have a tendency to all understand, airbrushing has been around for several years however however we have a tendency to still obtain a magazine and want we have a tendency to had the figure of that person in a very bathing suit. Britney spears and Debenhams area unit the minority of individuals United Nations agency have printed before and once shots of a photograph. This goes to indicate that we have a tendency to all have flaws and none people area unit good. But, if you are taking a glance at the before and once shots from the Debenhams campaign, there's nothing wrong with the before shot to start with. are you able to see something wrong? To Pine Tree State there is not.
Images like these have a colossal influence on society and might result in ladies as young as 13 fasting as a result of they require a body like this. It's crazy. in spite of what form you're, you must celebrate it.
Looking back through the years, body shapes have modified most that we should always simply be proud of who we have a tendency to area unit and not follow the trend. there'll continuously be somebody who will try and place you down however it's your body. If you're happy, that's all that matters. Don't let society influence you. Hub Pages have the same timeline specializing in the Western Standards of Beauty. The therefore referred to as 'trend' of the best women's body is consistently dynamic and in today's society, whether or not you are a size half dozen or a size twenty, you are going to urge slated for being too skinny or too fat. one and all ought to be celebrated!!

Our goal is to deliver an exceptional and safe user experience that meets our clients' needs, regardless of what mobile device they use. – Hernan Matute, CEO, Cyphercor
Ottawa, ON (PRWEB) March 12, 2015
BlackBerry users seeking enhanced login security via two-factor authentication (2FA) can now protect their digital assets without sacrificing an optimal user experience, as Cyphercor Inc. releases its native LoginTC app for Blackberry 10 (BB10).
Rebuilt from scratch, the new app, made exclusively for BlackBerry® 10 OS, is primed to provide the highest quality of performance – from stability to speed and resolution. All BlackBerry 10 devices are supported: BlackBerry Q10, BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Passport.
An exciting key feature of LoginTC's BB10 app is language localisation, which means the app is available in both of Canada's official languages: French and English. The app will automatically detect the user's language preference based on existing settings on his or her Blackberry.
Also exciting, this release marks the beginning of LoginTC's transition to user-empowered testing across all mobile platforms. User-empowered testing gives end-users who are not administrators the control to run diagnostics, which ensure the system is functioning properly, directly from their devices without admin assistance. The marriage between user and administrator powered protection further solidifies the security of any establishment on two levels: individually and as a cohesive whole.
"Our goal is to deliver an exceptional and safe user experience that meets our clients' needs, regardless of what mobile device they use – whether that's an Apple iPhone, a Google-driven smartphone or desktop, a tablet or a BlackBerry," says Hernan Matute, CEO of Cyphercor.
He continues, "That also involves appealing to both administrator and end-user so they work together to create the environment necessary for achieving maximal security."
In a mobile market that prioritizes the development of apps for iOS and Android, Cyphercor is committed to ensuring that its BlackBerry customers, like all its customers, remain fully protected from the threat of cyberattacks and stay fully satisfied with the products they use to do so.
The app is available for download from the BlackBerry World app store for free at http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/59952837/.
About LoginTC
LoginTC is an enterprise-grade, cloud-based two-factor authentication (2FA) solution that leverages virtualization and mobile investments to complement and protect existing IT practices and infrastructure. It delivers an elegant and supremely secure online experience, scalable for millions of users, without significant costs. End-users install the LoginTC app on their mobile device (Blackberry, Apple, Android) or Google Chrome, converting their device or desktop into a second factor credential by loading administrator-issued tokens in the app. Future first-factor (username/password) access attempts to a LoginTC-enabled VPN or corporate application push a second factor request to the device. The rich app interface then prompts users to approve or deny the access request.
Companies ranging from SMBs to enterprises – including LTG Federal, Infostrada and Harlequin – as well as government organizations already trust LoginTC. This can be attributed to LoginTC's unique and sought after characteristics: no Personally Identifiable Information (PII), secure remote password (SRP) protocol protection, push notifications rather than SMS for worldwide access, and fraud detection integration with dynamic CONTEXTUAL information for real-time threat alert.
Cyphercor Inc., the developer of LoginTC, is headquartered in Ottawa. For more information, visit https://www.logintc.com/.

Hey folks!
Just found this repo on GitHub which maintains a list of important podcasts for developers. It has already got 5K+ stars. I found this interesting and thought to share it here.
What are your thoughts? Do you listen to any of these podcasts?
Sandeep Panda
I run hashnode.com which surfaces the best developer stories and discussions from around the world. This is my personal blog (powered by Hashnode) where I share what I build.
I started two months ago listening to podcasts and they are brilliant for information and a must have for developing. I tend to listen to them whilst im doing something. E.g walking or shower lol, very helpful. I've listened to the syntax and access them by Google podcasts, but certainly going to try that github repository!👍👍

3 Sales Tips from Someone With Experience

It's all well and good having a sunny weekend, but a grey Monday morning somewhat dampens the spirit.
A short post, a day late. Why? Because winter has dragged on, the sun shone for two, beautiful days, but then went away again behind a Monday morning gloom and quite frankly my solar-powered batteries are far from recharged.
Yes, flowers have begun to bloom and there is finally some colour emerging outside, but it's not much. And it all looks pretty monochrome when it's overcast anyway. It feels like the whole country is suffering from collective seasonal affective disorder and we've all just had enough.
Time marches on however, well it Aprils on be precise, so what to do? Well, my words may say "ugh" but my photos say "oh?" So, I shall make some nice food, have a long bath, get an early night and launch into Tuesday with refreshed and renewed intentions to restart the week with more sprightly resolve.

I had been surprised to find hours before buying a ticket that the early showings of Deadpool 2 hadn't sold out. It was my intention to see Avengers Infinity War early however no matter what theater those early showings from 7 PM onwards had been sold out. It's especially surprising since Deadpool came out two years ago and made some good money being a high grossing R-rated film. Though I can't say how the film did when it premiered in early showings. I do have to add there was a double feature at the theater I visited which was sold out that showed both the Deadpool films.
So anyway Deadpool 2 was a great movie. Deadpool is a mutant who is adept at causing mayhem and that's giving him a bit too much credit. You could say he's something of a ninja for hire with the ability to heal and generate after a severe injury. He goes around murdering bad guys and shows some heroic traits, however, he's not your typical superhero. You can say Deadpool is the ideal anti-hero. That is we can root for him, but he won't show the traits of other superheroes who the public identifies with such as Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, Iron Man, Spiderman, Capt. America, Black Panther, etc.
We don't think of superheros as very sexual and clearly outside of the costume Deadpool is. Deadpool is a bit of a wiseass and often belts out four letter curses like candy - the cursing we don't attribute to superheroes. Deadpool sure likes to kill bad guys and that's definitely not the trait of a superhero although let's be honest some bad guys die at the hands of superheros. If it's not about killing them them someone a superhero is forced to kill a villain to save the day.
And besides to go to another superhero movie Batman Begins, was is right for Batman to leave Ras al Ghul to die in a crash of a monorail train? Batman said it himself he wasn't going to kill him, however, he doesn't have to save him and he didn't. I felt that was the most un Batman like thing even seen. Anyway....
A lot of unexpected moments in this movie and it was to be expected. A character I never expect to see on the big screen made his debut in this film, perhaps I should show the video well at the end. This time Deadpool attempts to save and redeem a young mutant who was being abused at an orphanage. Deadpool attempts to form a superhero team that largely doesn't survive. And again Deadpool fails to join the X-Men. LOL!
Now I want to see how the Deadpool series will top the first two now that there will be a Deadpool 3! This is how well Deadpool 2 did last week it toppled the recent Avengers film.
Now here's the character that appears in Deadpool 2 [VIDEO]

The lack of a balloon festival
So I just came back from Lake Havasu City where I had attended their balloon festival. I should have a bunch of pictures to share, right? No. Not at all. I won't beat around the bush here: all three mass ascensions were canceled due to strong winds.
It's not uncommon for some days of a balloon festival to be canceled due to inclement weather. Heck, the Red Rock Balloon Rally that I went to last month only had one mass ascension during its three days. However, this is the first time I've witnessed all of the mass ascensions canceled. Luckily, they did sort of had one day of flying for the school demonstrations the day before the festival.
What got me excited for the Havasu Balloon Festival & Fair was that the event had two flights scheduled per day. All of the festivals I've been to prior have had only one flight a day in the morning. A total of six flights over three days sounded like an excellent opportunity to get plenty of photos, and explore new angles to photograph the balloons.
Along with the cancellation of the flights, the balloon glows were also affected by the winds. The organizers, and pilots managed to put together an impromptu balloon glow the day before the festival which was fun to see. After that, the winds didn't allow for anyone to inflate their balloons for the balloon glow. When that happens, they have what is called a "candlestick" event. It's just baskets, and the pilots spewing flames out of their burners. It's amusing to see once, however, it certainly doesn't hold a candle (pun intended) to an actual balloon glow.
All-in-all my goals of getting photos were utterly destroyed by the heavens. Well, I guess there's next year, right?
You can check out what I did get below. No winners though.

W. Robinson,
A Very Good plus sound set bound in blue cloth with gilt stamping to the spine and front cover. Top edge gilt with deckled fore-edges. William Robinson (1838 � 1935) was an Irish practical gardener and journalist whose ideas about wild gardening spurred the movement that led to the popularising of the English cottage garden, a parallel to the search for honest simplicity and vernacular style of the British Arts and Crafts movement. Robinson advocated more natural and less formal-looking plantings of hardy perennials, shrubs, and climbers, and reacted against the High Victorian patterned gardening, which used tropical materials grown in greenhouses.The set contains a total of 66 chromolithographs with tissue guards as well as numerous black and white engravings.
