65th Annual Grand National Roadster Show Sunday Coverage
All's Well That Ends Well
Well folks, it's the final day here at the 65th Annual Grand National Roadster Show and we can say without a doubt that we've had some serious fun. The Grand Daddy Drive-In yesterday was a quite a sight to see. There were so many cars and trucks that came out.
Although it's not as sunny as yesterday, the weather feels great and we're excited to be here. Mountain Man delivered a church service over in building 4 this morning and everyone was lined up outside for the second day of the Drive-In. The Mighty Mojo Prophets are jamming out some tunes and people are getting in their last fix of hot rod sightseeing. Everyone is excited for the 65th Annual Awards Ceremony that will reveal America's Most Beautiful Roadster.
We are sad to go and we're looking forward to next year's show. Stay tuned for more in-depth coverage of the 65th Annual Grand National Roadster Show.

YY, the first Chinese company to brave the U.S. initial public offering market since April, was expected to meet a wary investor base Wednesday. Yet YY's (YY) stock managed to rise 10% in its debut on Nasdaq (NDAQ).
A Chinese Internet social media platform with a focus on gaming and video chats, YY, priced its offering at $10.50, the low end of its expected range. The company raised $82 million for investors by selling 7.8 million shares. Morgan Stanley (MS), Citigroup (C) and Deutsche Bank (DB) led the underwriting for YY.
It's been a rough year for Chinese IPOs. Investors, already skittish because of some high-profile accounting scandals involving Chinese companies, have shied away from these offerings. Four offerings were pulled. But the two that have gone public this year have performed fairly well. Shares of online retailer Vipshop (VIPS) have nearly doubled since their March IPO, and online advertising company Acquity Group (AQ) is up nearly 10% from its IPO price.
YY's CEO David Li said via a translator that he's been less concerned about the U.S. market's reception to Chinese companies in the short-term and expects to unlock value for shareholders over the long-term.
Related: How Muddy Waters spots fraud in China
In a sign of management's faith in its value, none of YY's executives or its venture capital investors sold shares in the IPO, chief financial officer Eric Ho said. Ahead of the IPO, YY raised about $100 million in capital from Morningside Ventures, Disney's (DIS) venture arm Steamboat Ventures, GGV, and Tiger Global. Its most recent fundraising round in January 2011, led by Tiger Global, valued YY at $1 billion.
Not all potential investors are convinced that the company has room to run. "My clients are sitting this IPO out," said Scott Sweet, founder of IPO Boutique. "The days of the Chinese IPOs being red hot are over at least until they can show that investors have no reason to be worried about fraud."
Investors haven't forgotten about companies like Sino-Forest, formerly traded in Canada, which saw its shares crumble on allegations of accounting fraud. But even hot China Internet stocks like Baidu (BIDU) and Sina (SINA) are down this year on concerns about valuation and slowing growth.
YY could struggle going forward because of economic headwinds in China. Investors may also penalize YY because of its resemblance to some social media companies in the U.S. with short but checkered histories as public companies like social gaming company Zynga (ZNGA). The epic flop of Facebook (FB) following its IPO in May also has hurt demand for social media stocks.
But after generating net losses between 2009 and 2011, YY finally derived a profit of roughly $8.9 million in revenues for the first nine months of 2012 on a revenue stream that's rapidly increasing. YY's executives said the company plans to generate more revenue by asking users to pay to watch live musical events and competitions among top video gamers.
YY plans to use some of the IPO proceeds to expand beyond China in the next year. It's currently testing the international waters in Brazil.

Industry News for ImaSight, Inc.
Carroll, Iowa 51401
ImaSight Modernizes Digital Radiography with the Launch of Game Changing VisionXpert™ Software
Instinctive Interface and Comprehensive Features Create "Excitement Buzz" Among Early Product Demo Attendees.
Québec, Canada – ImaSight™, the chiropractic industry's pioneer in digital x-ray imaging systems, announces the launch of VisionXpert™, its newest, most intuitive software to date. This updated software product moves the modernization of digital radiography forward with comprehensive features and an instinctual user interface, responding once again to industry demands.
"The development of VisionXpert evolved out of our company's core value to not only respond to user feedback, but to aggressively anticipate and satisfy unmet needs with product innovation," says Steve Johnston, Vice President and Co-founder of ImaSight.
"VisionXpert provides the means for doctors to modernize their practices and immediately offer a greatly enhanced level of patient care. This new software creates high-quality, annotated digital x-rays that are useful as illustrative diagnostic tools. Doctors can store for future reference and also share with patients during the same visit or by CD and email."
VisionXpert offers several key features that help chiropractors quickly assess and deliver a patient's medical status, including:
VisionXpert's new software features transform any practice into one that is technologically progressive, more efficient and more profitable. ImaSight's commitment to the profession means their product offerings deliver the highest quality images at the lowest price point on the market.
"What sets ImaSight's software apart is our commitment to the ongoing modernization and evolution of digital radiography. Product evolution must be responsive as changes in the chiropractic industry occur," adds Mr. Johnston. "We invest a great deal in software development because we care about the success and growth of the industry. We look forward to seeing the positive impact VisionXpert has on the quality and success of our clients' practices."
ImaSight believes that every patient benefits from seeing visual case references. This aids in patient understanding of health needs and progress over time. According to IAEA, the benefits of digital radiology are enormous. With a filmless radiological department, a doctor can view images on a desktop and report out immediately after the examination.
VisionXpert's enhanced user interface and annotation tools make it much easier for doctors to share, track and measure progress. This deeper "partnering" not only helps the patient better understand their progress, it has the added benefit of increasing the length of stay.
Learn more about ImaSight's comprehensive and intuitive VisionXpert software and other digital x-ray systems by visiting www.ImaSightChiro.com. Qualified chiropractors can sign up for a one-on-one, interactive demo.

Durable-goods-producing plants continued to increase their purchases of new machines last year. New data shows that overall world output grew slightly more than 10 percent to almost $60 billion.
American factories were part of that expansion, but they cooled a bit in their rate of expenditure increases last year. Consumption in 2006 amounted to $6.3 billion. That represents a respectable 5-percent increase from 2005's $5.9 billion, but it's less than the 16-percent gain the previous year or the whopping 30-percent boost coming out of the 2002 slump.
Featured Content
So once again, the United States ranks third among industrialized countries in terms of installations (see Top Consumers table).This puts the United States ahead of Germany, which saw a decline in expenditures last year.
However, there's a cautionary note to the statistics. Competitors in other countries, particularly in Asia, also increased their installations of new, and more productive, factory equipment—in many cases at a rate faster than in America.
China, the world's leading consuming country for the last 5 years, saw a 20-percent boost in 2006 to $12.9 billion. This means that the value of Chinese consumption is equal to more than 21 percent of the total output of all producing countries in the annual survey.
Japan saw only a 1-percent increase in purchases last year, measured in yen. Nevertheless, that gain still was enough for Japan to firmly hold on to the No. 2 position in consumption at a strong $7.4 billion.
Other Asian countries increased installations at a faster pace. Factories in both South Korea and Taiwan increased their spending on machine tools by 14 percent. These countries rank fifth and seventh, respectively, in the consumption listing.
India, while not quite yet in the top ten consuming nations, is sure to get there after this year. Booming industrialization continues, and consumption for the 2006 came to $1.3 billion. That figure may be only one-tenth that of giant China, but India's pace is noteworthy. Installations, measured in rupees, grew an astounding 41 percent last year. That comes on top of a 65-percent increase from 2004, which, in turn, saw a doubling of consumption from 2003. After many years of mediocre machine-tool consumption, India is clearly skyrocketing.
The international statistics come from the 42nd World Machine Tool Output & Consumption Survey, conducted annually by Gardner Publications, Inc. The WMTO&CS measures output, trade and consumption from major industrialized nations.
Of the 29 countries in this year's survey, all but three showed an increase in consumption. Consumption, in this case what economists call "apparent consumption," is a statistic derived from taking production from a country's machine tool factories, adding its imports and subtracting its exports. What's left is assumed to have been installed—consumed—internally.
So in the case of the United States, $3.7 billion in domestic production, plus $4.4 billion in imports, minus $1.8 billion in exports comes to $6.3 billion in consumption for 2006, still well below the all-time U.S. record of $8.7 billion in 1998.
The increase in American consumption undoubtedly will continue in 2007. Machine tool orders placed by U.S. factories continue to increase, and as these orders are fulfilled, this will be reflected in the next WMTO&CS. American orders, tracked by the two Washington-area trade groups—AMT–The Association For Manufacturing Technology and the American Machine Tool Distributors' Association—show a 2006 order level that's ahead of 2005 by 27 percent.
Turning to the WMTO&CS's other main measure, which is output, there are several notable changes from last year. Once again, the news seems to be concentrated in Asia.
Japan continues to lead the world in production of metalcutting and metalforming machine tools with $13.5 billion in shipments in 2006, a yen-based increase of 8 percent. But more remarkable is the growth of China as a producer. The People's Republic of China's domestic machine tool industry grew 37 percent last year, as Chinese factories sought to meet a voracious local appetite that had previously been fed by imports. With estimated shipments of $7 billion, China ranks as the world's third largest producer, behind Germany and ahead of Italy.
Other Asian producers also made significant gains. South Korea had an 18-percent boost in output last year and moved into fifth place. Taiwan, sixth, saw a 10-percent gain in 2006 to $3.7 billion, moving ahead of the United States, which saw a 5-percent increase in production to $3.6 billion.
The other major Asian player, India, still has modest machine tool output by Japan/China/Korea/Taiwan standards. However, 18th-ranked India has a domestic industry that, like China, is striving to meet growing internal demand; last year, its shipments grew 47 percent, the largest percentage increase of any of the 29 countries in the survey.

Trelleborg's ProgressiveTractionTM have been selected as a unique factory-fit tyre option on the new Massey Ferguson 6718 S, the world's first 200hp four-cylinder tractor. Finalist to the Tractor of the Year 2017 Award in the open field category, the new model has been presented in a dedicated press event on September 5th and introduced to the wider public at Innov-Agri, Outarville, France on 6th to 8th September.
Campbell Scott, Massey Ferguson Director Marketing Services, says: "The exclusive Trelleborg TM700 ProgressiveTractionTM and TM800 ProgressiveTractionTM tyre options further improves performance by efficiently transferring the MF 6700 S tractor's power and torque to the ground. Tested to the extreme in the Antarctica2 expedition, which took a standard MF 5610 wheeled tractor to the South Pole, these tyres are proven to improve driver comfort, boost output, reduce soil compaction and cut fuel consumption."
As part of the Press event, Trelleborg organized a field demonstration to showcase the premium performances of the ProgressiveTractionTM technology in front of the TOTY International jury.
To do so, two MF 6718S tractors run over a 150 meter track with different tyre fitments: the first one was equipped with Trelleborg TM800 ProgressiveTractionTM 650/65R38 and 540/65R28, while the second one was fitted with standard TM800 tyres. These two tractors were linked together with a metal rope to a third Massey Ferguson 8730 break tractor fitted in Trelleborg TM1000 High Power with a heavy ballast. The rope was on a pulley so was free to move, enabling the tractor transferring the most power to the ground to pull away from the other one.
Lorenzo Ciferri, Marketing Director at Trelleborg Agricultural and Forestry Tyres, says: "Test results demonstrated the unbeatable performance of Trelleborg ProgressiveTraction™. While its two points of anchorage boost grip, the new design greatly reduces tyre slippage to ensure maximum traction. The ProgressiveTraction™ technology boosts traction capability up to 18 percent compared to the average of the market. The reduced working time per hectare results in lower emissions and premium cost efficiency."

Hello AEEnhancers,
i have a script using setValuesAtTimes which converts Shape paths to Mask path keyframes (to edit and run scripts requiring keyframes).
Vertices on all Mask paths keyframes are positioned as their original Shape paths so that Shape to Mask vertices translation is not required.
However, the "global" Position and Transforms are not transferred in the conversion to Mask paths, instead all Mask paths are created with anchor points at (0, 0) top left of the comp. view. Shape path Fills are also Not transferred in conversion to Mask paths.
So, i hoped anyone familiar could,..
1) please show me how to transfer Position transforms and Shape Fills to the Mask paths converted from Shape paths?
any help\suggestions much appreciated,
how to retain Position&Fills when converting ShapesToMasks?
Find out why the . goes before the /

Calls To Boycott Starbucks After Controversial Arrest Of Two Black Men
By Bill Galluccio
April 16, 2018
A group of protesters packed into a Philadelphia Starbucks where two black men were arrested last week after an employee called the police and said they were trespassing. The two men reportedly asked to use the bathroom and were told they needed to place an order to be allowed to use the restroom. The men refused to place an order or leave, and an employee called the cops.
Over two dozen protesters marched into the Starbucks carrying signs and chanting "Starbucks coffee is anti-black."
"We don't want this Starbucks to make any money today. That's our goal," said Abdul-Aliy Muhammad, one of the protest's organizers and co-founder of the Black and Brown Workers Collective.
Protesters demanded that the coffee chain fire the employee who called the police. Comedian Kevin Hart tweeted his support, asking Starbucks " to do what's right and handle the manager that was on duty accordingly." TMZ reports that rapper T.I. called for a boycott of the coffee chain over the incident.
Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson apologized for the incident and promised the company would increase training on "unconscious bias."
"I'll say the circumstances surrounding the incident and the outcome at our store on Thursday were reprehensible," Starbucks' CEO Kevin Johnson said in an exclusive interview with ABC News' "Good Morning America" today. "They were wrong, and for that, I personally apologize to the gentlemen that visited our store."

When it comes to making mistakes, CIOs like to talk about failing fast. This is the acceptable way to be wrong about an idea -- we tried something, it didn't work, but it didn't cost us a lot.
But fail-fast mistakes aren't the ones that haunt us. The ones we remember 10 years later are the strategies we followed for too long, the poor hires whom we gave too many chances, and the big vendor contracts that cost a bundle to escape.
What follows are 13 candid examples of decisions that CIOs wish they could do over. Top IT leaders shared these examples with their peers through our CIO Profile series. CIO Profile candidates are chosen because they rank highly in InformationWeek's annual innovation awards.
A few observations about these decisions CIOs would like to do over.
This is the fourth time we've gathered these do-over comments from top CIOs. For a look back, see our collections from 2010, 2011, and 2012. We highlight these so we can learn from one another. In fact, listening and learning better from peers is one of our first hard lessons learned.
1. Pick good people -- and listen
"Early in my career, I signed a contract that ended up being a bad business decision. I was confident I had gathered all the data I needed, but I failed to gain the viewpoints of my fellow workers, so I missed some key information. Now I surround myself with the best and brightest individuals, and I hear them out. Diversity and collaboration provide the forum for the best decision making."

The A List
Cleaning up your in-house mailing list with a National Change of Address (NCOA) scan from the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) could save you hundreds of dollars on your next direct mailing.
The USPS developed the NCOA system several years ago and awarded licenses to a small number of private companies nationwide to perform the scans. A scan offers the following benefits:
*It increases the deliverability of direct mailings.
*It standardizes all addresses.
*It offers address change data on tape, cartridge or diskette.
*It updates your mailing list before a mailing is made.
Licensed NCOA system companies receive the change of address information from the USPS National Customer Support Center, which updates its master files every two weeks. For more information, contact your local post office or visit the Web site at http://www.usps.gov
What's Your Hook?
Would you remember a photographer who introduced himself by saying: "If you feel like shooting your relatives, call Photos By Tom"? Or how about a hairstylist with the motto: "If your hair isn't becoming to you, you should be coming to me"?
Dr. Ivan Misner, a college professor and entrepreneur who heads up Business Network International (BNI) in San Dimas, California, a large networking organization, believes hooks like these keep you in prospects' minds long after you've met them.
"Businesses can develop 50 to 90 percent of their sales through networking and the referrals it generates," says Misner, author of Seven Second Marketing (Bard Books). "The key to getting those referrals is twofold. First, you must provide a top-notch product or service; second, you must make it as easy as possible for people to remember your name. A memory hook is an excellent way to accomplish that."
A memory hook is a brief statement about you and your business, which you should use within the first seven seconds of meeting someone.
Seven Second Marketing offers more than 200 examples of real-life businesspeople who are using memory hooks to market their businesses. The book offers tactics anyone can use to develop a memory hook, including how to use humor, word play, puns and rhymes. For instance, a hot tub company describes itself this way: "We want to get you in hot water." You get the idea.
Your Name Here
Looking for just the right mouse pad to emblazon your software company's name across? How about a headband to keep your tennis equipment company's name on people's minds?

PromoMart (a href=http://www.promomart.com>http://www.promomart.com ) is a cyberstore of promotional products and services designed to help businesses plan a promotion from start to finish.

PromoMart offers three ways to search for promotion ideas: by type of promotion, type of business or industry, or type of audience. The site can even hook up users with a consultant in their area who can help them with campaign ideas and marketing needs.
Shoppers can browse through the online catalog of products or scan Imprint, an online version of the company's magazine that covers the latest in promotional strategies, products, incentives and marketing trends. The on-site PromoMart Products Planning Calendar tells users about unique events, ideas and themes that companies use to tie their promotions and programs into national events.
"Promotional products can be used to build goodwill, motivate employees or create traffic at a trade show," says Schaeffer.

The occasional persnickety actor, or long day on the set, in no way could have prepared Mike Ribaudo for the guerrilla attack on his senses.
Men on elephants, pulling wooden carts on wooden wheels. Children, naked, sitting on blankets with their parents, a pot containing food suspended over a flame. Open-air markets, flies and bugs nearly outnumbering the available goods.
The sights, sounds and smells of poverty, of hopelessness.
Of India.
"I didn't realize poverty could be that bad,'' said Ribaudo, a Sarasota High graduate and former professional baseball player.
He had done it in 12 previous movies, films such as "Moneyball'', "Summer Catch'' and "The Bronx Is Burning,'' earning the title of baseball consultant by teaching the actors the proper way to throw a baseball, swing a bat.
Most recently, Ribaudo's connection to Brian Cole, a minor-league player with a bright future, who died in a car accident at age 22, generated an article in the spring-training issue of Sports Illustrated.
But this was different. Way different -- six weeks in Mumbai, New Dehli and elsewhere, prepping two actors, who never before had even gripped a baseball, for their roles in "Million Dollar Arm.''
"Hands down, the most challenging thing I've ever had to do since I've been in the movie business,'' Ribaudo said.
With a Disney budget of $34 million, the sports drama follows Rinku Singh and Dinesh Patel, two India natives who beat out 30,000 other contestants on a television reality show called "Million Dollar Arm'' by throwing a baseball the fastest.
The two come to America, where they eventually are signed by the Pittsburgh Pirates. While the righty Patel washed out after two seasons with the Pirates' GCL club, the lefty Singh remains in the team's minor leagues, though he missed the 2013 season with a shoulder injury.
They are portrayed in the movie by Madhur Mittal ("Slumdog Millionaire'') and Suraj Sharma ("Life of Pi''). Starring Jon Hamm, Bill Paxton and Alan Arkin, the film is scheduled for a May release.
But even before he arrived, Ribaudo had to prepare, getting eight immunization shots. Once in India, he took a daily malaria pill, a practice he continued for seven days upon his return to America.
"Before I went they said, 'don't open your mouth in the shower, don't brush your teeth with the tap water,''' Ribaudo said. He stayed at a five-star hotel, yet turned vegetarian his six weeks there, losing about 10 pounds.
Ribaudo's most difficult day was his first. That's when he worked for the first time with Mittal and Sharma, whose background throwing anything extended only to the javelin. Not even cricket, India's national sport.
"I took the cab back to the hotel,'' he said, "and I looked at my assistant and said, 'We're screwed.' It was bad. Bad. I had three weeks of pre-production training to get these guys to throw in front of the camera.
"I was nervous because them looking real and authentic depended on my work with them. And it was challenging.''
Ribaudo worked with the English-speaking actors, two hours a day, three consecutive days, followed by a day off. He had them perform drills, balance exercises, holding a towel and extending it into a glove.
"They wanted to short-arm everything,'' he said. "They listened, worked hard and they did great.''
And by the end of Ribaudo's tutoring?
"They would have made the first cut at Cardinal Mooney's tryouts,'' he said. "I don't know that they would have made the team.''
And while he called the film's cast "the best I ever worked with,'' it'll be Ribaudo's last. After 13 movies, he's becoming a full-time father.
"When I got home from India, my 7-year-old daughter was very upset that I was always leaving for long periods of time,'' he said. "That was when I made her a promise that daddy wasn't going to leave anymore to do movies.''

From Middle English wile, wyle, from Old Northern French wile ("guile") and Old English wīl ("wile, trick") and wiġle ("divination"), from Proto-Germanic *wīlą ("craft, deceit") (from Proto-Indo-European *wey- ("to turn, bend")) and Proto-Germanic *wigulą, *wihulą ("prophecy") (from Proto-Indo-European *weyk- ("to consecrate, hallow, make holy")). Cognate with Icelandic vél, væl ("artifice, craft, device, fraud, trick"), Dutch wijle.

The phrase meaning to pass time idly is while away. We can trace the meaning in an adjectival sense for while back to Old English, hwīlen, "passing, transitory". It is also seen in whilend, "temporary, transitory". But since wile away occurs so often, it is now included in many dictionaries.

PACIFICA — Two suspects involved in a strong-arm robbery in Pacifica on Wednesday have been arrested, police said.
Gustavo Paludeti, 19, of Belmont, and Nolan Lydon, 19, of Redwood City, were both booked into the San Mateo County Main Jail on felony charges of robbery, conspiracy and burglary.
The two are suspected to be a part of a group of four men who entered an Ace Hardware store at 560 San Pedro Ave. around 5:30 p.m. and stole an undisclosed amount of merchandise, police said.
One suspect pushed an employee to the ground before the group fled in a vehicle, which was later found unoccupied nearby the scene.
Officers and a police K-9 unit located Paludeti and Lydon, while the other two suspects remain at large, police said.

Autism is a lifelong developmental disability that affects the way a person communicates and relates to people around them. Children and adults with autism are unable to relate to others in a meaningful way. Their ability to develop friendships is impaired as is their capacity to understand other people's feelings.
People with autism can often have accompanying learning difficulties but everyone with the condition shares a difficulty in making sense of the world.
There is also a condition called Asperger's syndrome which is a form of autism used to describe people at the higher functioning end of the autistic spectrum.
All people with autism have impairments in social interaction, social communication and imagination.
Social interaction difficulty with social relationships, for example, appearing aloof and indifferent to other people.
Social communication difficulty with verbal and non-verbal communication. For example, not really understanding the meaning of gestures, facial expression or tone of voice.
Imagination difficulty in the development of play and imagination, for example, having a limited range of imaginative activities, possibly copied and pursued rigidly and repetitively.
The exact causes of autism are unknown but research shows that genetic factors are significant. It is also evident from research that autism is associated with a variety of conditions affecting brain development which occur before, during or very soon after the birth.
Autism requires specialist support and you should consult your GP if you suspect your child has autism.

Update: CONFIRMED: Section of Gotham Renamed "Sandy Hook" in Latest 'Dark Knight' Release
Bizarre evidence that the Sandy Hook massacre in Connecticut may have been staged has surfaced in the form of YouTube videos which point out the words "Sandy Hook" were written on a map that appeared in the most recent Dark Knight movie, a startling revelation given the deluge of mysterious coincidences already plaguing the movie.
According to numerous YouTube videos, a scene appears in which Commissioner Gordon points at a Gotham City map and confusingly, directly to the words "Sandy Hook." At least one user who tried to upload a similar video pointing out this curious coincidence had it strangely removed.
Another YouTube video asserts that the word "Aurora" also appeared in the movie, further fanning the flames of conspiracy swirling about the movie.
In July, following the Aurora "Dark Knight" massacre, we wrote how the audience in the theater the night of the fateful shooting was made to watch a trailer in which gangsters in the upcoming Gangster Squad movie shot through a screen at audience members. The controversial scene was later scrubbed from the trailer altogether. Warner Brothers alleged that, up until the night of the shooting, they had "forgotten" that the trailer contained the scene.
Another shocking coincidence came in the form of a Lil Wayne music video that absurdly featured skeletons in a movie theater. The video was released just days before the Aurora massacre took place.
As more of these "strange coincidences" continue to pop up, it would take a fool not to question the motive behind it all: Is this all part of an evil pre-conditioning program?
This definitely begins to tread into Satanic and occult territory, the purpose of which is known to only a select few in tight-knit circles at the very top branches of various secret societies.
In a June 2012 article, Jurriaan Maessen described predictive programming, stating, "Classic predictive programming is usually set in motion to desensitize a target audience to a concept, a possibility, or an event- so when an idea is finally introduced into society, or when an event actually occurs, they have been carefully foreshadowed, pre-programmed you might say, in the minds of people."
As we have seen continually in the past, pre-conditioning and predictive programming go hand-in-hand in preparing, subconsciously, the minds of the masses for an event of ritual sacrifice.
Take, for instance, what some have called a "mega ritual" event: 9/11.
If 9/11 was set to be one of the largest mass rituals in history, it would require some of the grandest predictive programming that could be conjured, beginning as early as 1993 with various questionable insertions into the popular Simpsons TV show.
In 2001, the FOX series The Lone Gunmen aired a pilot episode that eerily predicted the events of 9/11.
In the episode, a scenario is played out in which the U.S. government remotely hi-jacks an airliner and attempts to fly it into the World Trade Center, justifying the launch of perpetual wars that would keep the military industrial complex busy for years to come.
In December 2005, actor, comedian and Lone Gunmen star Dean Haglund appeared on Infowars Live and spoke about the series' pilot episode, saying, "Part of the plot, as it said in the script was that this event would be used to start an international war on terror." Sound familiar?
He also spoke candidly about the funding for movies containing blatant Pentagon propaganda, saying, "These movies cost twenty, sixty million dollars to make, that money doesn't come from some guy down the street out of his check book, these come from huge venture capitalists that have huge corporate interests." He also "confirmed that government officials would regularly attend Hollywood parties and submit ideas to be planted in film and TV scripts," we wrote in 2005.
These subliminal messages go a long way in charging and absorbing energies needed for different occult rituals, but they're also a coding to other mafias designating territory and inciting fear, much like the ace cards American soldiers would leave on dead Vietnamese soldiers in attempts to psyche out the Viet Cong and forgo a firefight.
In this fashion, a subliminal trick is performed on the uninformed; a lesser magic spell that, as Anton LaVey, the founder of the Church of Satan, describes in the Satanic Bible, can be suited to one of three types of satanic ritual: sexual, compassion, or destructive.
In the book, LaVey says that, "One of the greatest of all fallacies about the practice of ritual magic is the notion that one must believe in the powers of magic before one can be harmed or destroyed by them. Nothing could be farther from the truth, as the most receptive victims of curses have always been the greatest scoffers."
There can be no question that occult magic is in practice in the upper-most tiers of secret societies and that it is continuously being researched and experimented with using us, the unwitting public, as disposable guinea pigs.
While the public follows a God of light and good, secret occult circles conduct depraved sexual acts (many times involving small children), along with blood sacrifices, and also ritual demonic summoning, possession and worship.

Millennials Are Developing Parents' Taste for Jaguars, Cadillacs - Bloomberg
Lexus, Jaguar, Cadillac and Acura are among the top 10 brands leased by millennial buyers, along with other pricey cars like Subaru, Mini and Buick, according to Edmunds. The 18- to 34-year-old group leases 60 percent of their luxury cars compared with about 50 percent for other buyers, Edmunds says. "Millennials like Varatharajah are used to upgrading their smartphones every couple of years and expect the same for their cars" The leasing data is more evidence that American millennials -- aka Generation Y -- like cars after all, defying... They are now the second-largest group of new car buyers, after their boomer parents, and will buy or lease almost 2 million vehicles this year. Leasing is the only way to get the car they really want and allows the tech-hungry cohort to get a new vehicle every two or three years. Of the 10 brands they lease the most, only Toyota's entry-level Scion brand and Fiat Chrysler's Ram pickup brand are mainstream, Caldwell said. And though they represent 24 percent of the U. S. population, they account for just 8. 7 percent of luxury car customers and 11. 6 percent of the mass market, according to Edmunds. Source: www.bloomberg.com

Baltimore police have charged a man in the Christmas Day beating of Kenni Shaw, though it was not announced for several days as the city's gay community remained on edge amid fears of violence.
Shaw says he was attacked because he is gay, though police have not suggested a motive in the case. The beating, illustrated by images taken in the hospital of his badly swollen face, helped spur a rally Saturday in East Baltimore that included Police Commissioner Anthony W. Batts.
Records show Marcus Evans, 26, was picked up two days before the rally on a warrant filed Dec. 29. When asked about the case the day of the rally, police said it remained under investigation.
Evans is charged with first- and second-degree assault and was released on $100,000 bond the day he was arrested.
Shaw said he was informed of the arrest last week but was asked to keep it confidential. He said he is satisfied with the way police have handled the investigation but will keep pushing for the case to be charged as a hate crime.
"A lot of people say, 'Well, there wasn't no words exchanged, so it can't be labeled as a hate crime,'" Shaw said. "The way I dress and look, I live a different lifestyle and I was targeted as 'weak.' Just because there was no words exchanged doesn't mean there was just an assault."
Anthony Guglielmi, the Police Department's chief spokesman, said, "There has to be a certain burden of proof to justify it as a hate crime," and that the decision not to charge as such was made in consultation with the state's attorney's office.
Guglielmi said police did not disclose the arrest because they were still completing their investigation. Shaw said he was attacked by five people, and police said suspects could still be at large.
Separately, police say that another reported attack on a member of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community — widely circulated on social media Tuesday — had been determined to be unfounded.
The chilling message, said to have been posted to the victim's Facebook page by attackers who beat him and stole his phone, read: "Let this be a lesson to you ... we takin y'all out one by one. I hope yall can find [him] before he die."
By midday, alarming messages were circulating that gay people in Baltimore were being targeted.
"This is real. Don't assume you are safe in Mt. Vernon," one widely shared message read. "Travel in groups. Walk your friend to the bus. Consider Mace if you know how to use it."
Sgt. Eric Kowalczyk, the Police Department's liaison to the LGBT community, confirmed that police received a report of a robbery and assault at North Avenue and St. Paul Street early Tuesday. The alleged victim had "superficial lacerations" to his face, but Kowalczyk said an investigation "revealed those injuries were not a result of any criminal act."
"After formal interviews with the victim and a thorough review of the facts and evidence of the case, the BPD has determined that this is not a criminal or police matter, and there is no public safety threat to the Mount Vernon community," Kowalczyk said.
Carrie Evans, director of Equality Maryland, said police contacted her Tuesday to inform her of the incident and tell her that they were investigating. She said her group waited to see what they found before posting anything to their own social media sites.
"That's the age we're living in. There are instantaneous things on social media that may or may not be true, and the police needed time," Evans said. "We were satisfied that police were doing their investigation and were going to wait until they had additional information."
After the incident involving Shaw, Batts pledged to form an advisory group to meet monthly to work with gay and transgender people, and Evans said police have had increased contact with her organization since then.
"How the community and Police Department responded to the attack on Kenni Shaw was very encouraging," she said. "We can't think we've reached a point in society where people aren't attacked because of their race or sexual orientation or religion. It happens, and we have to be cautious and vigilant."

Dir/scr: Daisuke Shimote. Japan. 2012. 100mins
An engagingly playful ensemble drama that wears its love for French New Wave cinema on its sleeve, writer/director Daisuke Shimote's Kuro (Hanare Banareni) is a charmer of an art house film given sweet-natured energy by central character Kuro Ueki (the delightful Airi Kido).
Kuro is just the sort of sweetly charming film to feature strongly on the festival circuit.
An adult coming-of-age ensemble drama, each scene is shot in one long take with minimal dialogue as Shimote strives to emphasise the mental and emotional distances between the characters, as well as shooting elegantly structured scenes that play on a youthful sense of oddball fun, with clear references to Jean-Luc Godard's Bande à part (Band Of Outsiders). The film had its world premiere at the Tokyo Film Festival.
This 'band of outsiders' are sweetly laid-back Kuro dreamed of becoming a baker, but gets fired from the bakery she works at and heads off into the city to steal clothes, charm all around her; Eito (Yu Saitoh), a photographer, breaks up with his girlfriend Nana (Wakana Matsumoto) who wants to get married, and Gou (Hideo Nakaizumi), a theatre director, who has his production thrown into jeopardy after his lead actress drops out.
These three young people, with nothing in common, meet by coincidence head out of Tokyo and stay together at a deserted inn near the sea. They play games, sleep, have fun – Gou plans to adapt his stage play so Kuro can play the lead – and embrace their time together, fending off the realities of life for as long as possible.
The seaside backdrop provides the perfect playground for their antics – from a wide empty veranda where they play invisible tennis through to the rocky beach where they mull over things – with debut writer/director Daisuke Shimote letting the spaces in-between his characters help tell their oddball story as much as the minimal dialogue.
Kuro is just the sort of sweetly charming film to feature strongly on the festival circuit and is certainly a nice balance to more traditionally structured film emerging from mainstream Japanese cinema.

Effect on Google rankings if my site is down?
My hosting company changes IP in the range of 6 months... May be either the change the servers or the IP. So for the past 20 hours my site is not loading in my place (India) where as i checked with my friend by that time in Japan. He said that it is loading there. But here it is still not.
The hosting company said that it will take max of 24-48 hours for propagation of DNS settings.
So at this time when google webmasters and google search bots and google crawl bots access the site what will happen.
Will this affect my SEO records in google? like not found or not reachable or network error?
Each countries ISP would be updating the dns in their own order so when japan got updated india did not (my service provider is Barthi Broadband (Airtel India)) .
I am unable to get into a conclusion.
Besides is this related to Up Stream and Down Stream?

I am a licensed teacher staying home with my children. I am taking classes for licensure renewal. I am currently homeschooling my third grader and first grader. This class was perfect. I have applied many of the ideas in our school day.
I am an Art major and think myself to be fairly creative. I was impressed with your very practical uses of creativity for the core subjects. Your ideas will help me, since I also have to teach these subjects. Thank you for the over-all coverage of elementary curriculum.
I found this course to be interesting and useful. There were lots of great ideas presented that will be easy to incorporate into any classroom. All of the resources included in the supplementary material will be a great help.
I thoroughly enjoyed the class and took from it some good ideas that I have already incorporated into my classroom! Thank you!
Thanks so much for a great course. I learned so much and am looking forward to applying all this new material in my classroom someday; hopefully soon!
Thank you for putting this course together. I found many many ideas to implement into my classroom. It also just makes your mind think differently and notice new ideas as they come up in the year.
This is a really interesting and stimulating class with a great and helpful instructor!
This is my 36th year of teaching and I have taken lots of continuing education classes. I was very impressed with the content and presentation of the material in this course. I am certified in math and art and consider myself to be a creative teacher, but I found some very interesting and useful ideas to add to my preparation. I particularly liked the math field day concept and believe that my school would be very supportive of the idea.
This course was wonderful! I haven't taken a class in years, so I was a little nervous with the workload with having three kids, plus working. This course was so organized, informative, and useful. I can take every lesson and incorporate it into my own teaching. There wasn't one thing I read where I second guessed its usefulness. I love courses where you get re-energized and re-inspired and you are excited to take what you learned and apply it to your own students. This course did that for me. The length of each chapter was perfect. The reading material was easy to follow and the quizzes were easy as well (I like that if you missed a question you could go back to retake it!!). I was really impressed with how quickly comments were replied to by the instructor and how encouraging and positive they were!!! The comments made me feel important, just like we should be doing for our own students!! Thanks again for a great 6 weeks!!!

Humble beginnings
Pestalozzi has a rich history, dating back to 1959 when the first children arrived at the Village in Sedlescombe. The charity's ethos is based on the principles of Swiss educationalist and reformer Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi who believed in educating the head, heart and hands, and has gone from strength to strength since those humble beginnings.
In 1947, the British Pestalozzi Children's Village Association was founded by Dr Henry Alexander, a German, Jewish refugee who moved to the UK before the Second World War, and Mrs Mary Buchanan, a British sociologist.
It wasn't until 1957 that the Pestalozzi UK story moved on when the group purchased the 170 acre Oaklands Estate in Sedlescombe, East Sussex. Two years later, in 1959 the first children arrived at the Village. They were Europeans who ended up in Displaced Persons' camps in Germany at the end of World War II and were joined by a number of British children from deprived backgrounds. Between 1959 and 1963, Pestalozzi focused on providing the power of education to European children who attended local schools.
In 1963, 22 Tibetan children from Northern India, along with their house parents, arrived at the Village marking a shift in direction for the charity. Since then Pestalozzi has evolved to offer life-changing educational opportunities to students from developing countries and areas affected by conflict.
1967/68 saw the last of the European students at Pestalozzi and from that point students from a number of countries including Thailand, Nigeria, Vietnam, Tibet, Palestine, India and Nepal began to arrive.
The programme underwent a further change in 1997 when Pestalozzi began to offer scholarships for academically bright young people aged 16-19 from economically disadvantaged backgrounds who had already completed basic secondary education (the equivalent of GCSEs). For almost 20 years they studied the International Baccalaureate Diploma at a local college and then between 2016-2019 students studied A levels at Claremont Senior School.
Today, Pestalozzi continues to provide the gift of education to students from a number of developing countries including Belize, Bhutan, Nepal, India, Indonesia, Tibet, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Uganda through a partnership with United World Colleges International. 2019 saw the inception of the Pestalozzi-UWC Scholarship Programme, which will support students to study the International Baccalaureate Diploma at UWC Atlantic in Wales.
2019 also saw the launch of the Pestalozzi Development Fund, which will provide seed funding to our alumni allowing them to make an earlier and greater positive impact in the world.
For 60 years we have grown tremendously with the help of our donors and supporters; we have been able to offer bright and determined young men and women the chance to change their lives for the better - and you can continue to help by supporting us here.

Day 8 of The 12 Days of Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness - Daily Inspiration
From Robert Cheeke's Best-Selling book Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness - The Complete Guide To Building Your Body on a Plant-Based Diet:
Effective Vegan Activism and Outreach
"Like many people who follow a vegan lifestyle, I have been involved in protests, boycotts, leafleting, and other forms of direct action activism and outreach promoting veganism and opposing animal cruelty. With more than a decade of experience as an outspoken vegan activist, I can say with confidence and certainty that nothing I have done has been a more effective form of activism than building my body and leading by positive example as a vegan bodybuilder. For me, nothing comes close to the impact I have been able to have on others than the role of vegan bodybuilder. Being something other than what most people expect you to be causes others to take notice; it gets them to pause for a few moments and think differently about veganism.
If you want to have the greatest impact for the vegan movement, it would behoove you to not fit the general stereotype of vegan weakling. I don't oppose that stereotype because I think it is quite true. I believe many vegans do fit into that category of being "vegan weaklings" and that is precisely one of the reasons I work so hard to be anything than what someone would expect when they hear the label "vegan." It is true that most vegans I see appear to be underweight or unhealthy in some way. That just seems to be the way it is. I've traveled all over the country to more vegetarian and vegan festivals than most and observed this reality. Of course it doesn't apply to all vegans, just like any stereotype; but I can fully understand where the stereotype comes from, and it's hard to argue against it without working to change it. Even as a bodybuilder, I still fear that I fit the stereotype when I'm not at my best. It motivates me to work harder to be a better activist and be a better role model for people.
Effective vegan outreach comes down to being a positive and inspirational role model. There are vegan activists who are passionate about saving animal lives and work tirelessly to do so but appear to be unhealthy. This detracts from the message they are trying to promote. So often, passionate activists who really care about animals diminish their efficacy because of the way they look; they turn people away from veganism because the general public associates that image of a skinny, weak, and unhealthy body to animal rights and the vegan lifestyle. Even with good intentions, sometimes vegans cause harm to the animal rights movement when they are not very good physical representatives of the lifestyle. I don't mean to suggest that every vegan must be fit and muscular or meet a certain physical standard, but I'm writing directly about effective activism and what creates positive or negative results as I have perceived it.
If vegans are to be as effective as possible in supporting the vegan movement, they will have to come together as a community to change the image of veganism. Just imagine for a moment if the general, widely accepted image of a vegan was a fit, energetic, positive, caring person who looked healthy and strong and led by positive example by their actions. What could that do for the movement? It could do amazing things and create incredible amounts of change. Right now, vegans are often seen as weaklings, as aggressors, and as those who don't care about health or body image but do care to tell you what you should and shouldn't be doing. I believe vegans can change this image by changing their diets, changing their exercise programs, and ultimately changing their lifestyles. These changes will not only benefit the vegan person's own health and happiness, but also will benefit the vegan movement as they become more effective leaders in their daily lives.
I spread veganism and promote animal rights through my success as a bodybuilder in many ways. Every time I compete in bodybuilding, it is announced over the microphone that I am vegan. I often wear my Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness clothing items backstage or in the audience when I'm competing. Regardless of my audience, targeted or mainstream, niche or general, I find a way to positively promote veganism through my success as a vegan bodybuilder. Listed at the end of the chapter are some helpful tips to turn your vegan bodybuilding lifestyle into a positive and effective form of activism and outreach.
When I tour around the country giving talks, I have a variety of outlines and themes that I focus on in my presentations. One of my talk outlines is directly related to activism and, in fact, it is titled, "Nurturing Activism." I use the following outline for various presentations including annual talks at the National Animal Rights Conference (http://www.arconference.org):
Nurturing Activism -Bringing out the BEST in YOU -A presentation by Robert Cheeke
Tips to bring out the best in you
• Love what you are doing and spend a significant amount of time doing the things you enjoy most.
• Believe in yourself and really mean it.
• Find a support network that understands you and believes in you.
• Learn from those who have achieved what you are trying to achieve.
• Set specific goals outlining what you want to achieve through your outreach and activism.
• Stay positive and support others in the movement.
• Represent veganism in a positive way as part of outreach and grow the movement.
• Make veganism look practical, creative, fun, easy, and accessible to anyone.
• Thrive rather than just get by. Eat for nourishment rather than stimulation.
• Lift others up and support those working toward the same goals.
• Listen to others as a way to offer solutions and learn something new.
• Appreciate those who have paved the way for us to do what we do.
• Respect what you're doing and what you've done; know you're making a difference.
• Apply what you know rather than just talk about it.
• Get adequate rest and take time for yourself. Rejuvenate when stress levels are high.
• When you speak for those who can't be heard, you're standing up for a group worth fighting for, and that in itself has great value.
• Pick your passion. There are many aspects of outreach and activism and so much to cover. Pick the aspects you're most passionate about, and that is where you'll likely have the most significant impact.
• Enjoy life. Be happy that you're making a difference in the world and saving the lives of those you will never meet. Be happy that you're vegan, not sad because you're vegan.
• Strive for wellness and good health so you can effectively carry out your chosen work and impact those you encounter in a positive light.
As you can see, I focus on a lot of positive ways to be an effective activist without having to be involved in confrontational circumstances, though you can still be positive and effective while being involved in conflict or intense conversation. What I aim to communicate to an audience is the concept that whatever we're doing as forms of activism and outreach, they should be constructed with our very best effort and best positive image in mind. I always work to put my best foot forward, my best physique forward, and my best presentation forward because that is in itself effective outreach and an inspiring form of activism."
-Robert Cheeke
Quote of the Day
From Robert Cheeke's Best-Selling book Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness - The Complete Guide To Building Your Body on a Plant-Based Diet:
"One can make so much more of a difference in the world by sharing success, than hiding success because success stories motivate and inspire others to do the same. Don't wait for opportunities to pass you by or show themselves; go out there and make them happen by being pro-active and confident in your abilities to contribute something based on your achievements." – Robert Cheeke
Success Tip of the Day
From Robert Cheeke's new book Think Differently, due out in 2012:
"When people tell you how important hoping and wishing are, explain to them how important action and effort are." -Robert Cheeke

My buddy, Abhijit Nadgouda @ iface has written a fabulous article, "From Paper To Web", which tackles an issue I've dealt with myself and many clients: Going from paper to the web.
I don't want to elaborate on the debates or dos and don'ts, but the technical aspects of a newspaper journalist moving to online publishing interests me as a software professional. I have seen a couple of my writer friends who have stuck to the print format while writing online…this time I want to target the differences between an article published on paper and on the Web that a journalist has to be aware of.
Naturally, the first place to look for is the differences in the print and the Web media, differences between reading an article on paper and reading it online.
There are a lot of differences between printed media and web media, and Nadgouda gets it very right.
Nagouda outlines the biggest differences, which impact thinking and writing as well as design, as hyperlinking, resources and references, the issue of a "complete article" versus a "running dialog" based upon reader feedback, article life, technological distinctions, spam, copyright infringement (the hassles of the web not found in most print media), including multimedia options, and more.
Nadgouda sums the differences up beautifully:
Writing on Web is not very different from writing on the paper, just that some rules change.
