Dancing with the Stars Season 25, Week TWO (Night TWO) – Live Blog
Okay, we're going to try this again after struggling last night. Let's see if that fix worked or not.
BTW, the Celebrity Family Feud with Sharna, Kym, Sasha, Keo and Lindsay was pretty entertaining, although I missed the first ten minutes.
Nice little opening number in spite of the Chmerkovskiy focus and lack of Ballas.
We start off with Nikki who is looking smoking hot. I hear you on the wine, girlfriend.
"You're like a nice russian" LOL Nikki…as opposed to?
She looks a bit uncomfortable but she's handling the dance quite well, I think. Some odd Choreo from Artem. Overall, I enjoyed it. Not sure I'm a fan of the purple lipstick on her. Read more..

Eliminating the uncertainty surrounding the future would really take the stress out of planning business strategies. In the meantime, we can't always know which actions will result in successful outcomes--at least not 100 percent of the time.
New technologies such as predictive analytics are getting us closer every day.
Although predictive analytics can't quite give you psychic capabilities, the technology is able to make successful predictions by utilizing patterns in consumer behavior and previous trends to assess which marketing, sales, and business strategies are likely to be most profitable at specific times.
Predictive analytics help build business strategies that are in line with how people will probably act in the future--ultimately resulting in increased campaign success.
Here are a few products and startups aiming to take over the field in 2016.
Personalized marketing campaigns are becoming an increasingly popular way to reach specific user segments and engage them efficiently. However, obtaining and analyzing the data necessary to create targeted campaigns requires large teams and an enormous amount of time. This is where Optimove comes into the picture.
Optimove is a marketing automation platform that uses advanced machine learning algorithms applied on behavioral data to segment your users into various personas.
Its technology then establishes which marketing strategy works best for each user type in order to successfully capture users' attention and drive them to perform a specific action.
Optimove users are able to create a personal connection with their customers and to better fulfill their specific needs. The result is a significant increase in retention and engagement and an upsurge in brand loyalty.
In addition to marketing and sales, predictive analytics can play a huge role in your company's security. Open DNS's Umbrella Security tool is a prime example of this. The tool scans your organization's computers, files, and data to derive patterns and spot irregularities. This way, it can easily predict a security breach well before it happens.
From Ashley Madison to Sony to countless others, hacking is a real threat for individuals and companies alike. While firewalls and standard antiviruses help the situation, they can't always prevent everything--especially when it comes to bigtime hackers.
Therefore, using tools that analyze patterns and predict what should and should not be occurring within your system gives you the advantage and ensures your company's most crucial files stay in the right hands.
Since the advent of social media, businesses have been using it as a means to connect with their customers and give their brand a more approachable persona.
While conversing with your audience and getting them engaged is a great way to gain an enthusiastic following, the business benefits of social media don't have to stop there.
Of course, social media makes it fairly easy to see patterns of particular users through what they post, where they post it, the places they visit, etc.
By using that information, you can get a fairly accurate understanding of a user's interests and his or her everyday wants and needs. Viralheat helps take that information a step further.
With Viralheat you can use the power of predictive analytics to understand a prospect's social behavior. The tool turns posts, likes, and other habits into hard data, allowing you to predict someone's actions and gain insights into his or her actions. By using this information, you gain all the tools you need improve your approach and give your customers the service they expect.
So while predictive analytics may still be a step from a full-fledged crystal ball, it certainly keeps you one step ahead of the game by allowing you to make educated predictions of behaviors based on real numbers and big data.
The technology is at the core of a variety of industries--from marketing and sales, to social media, and even security. As it becomes increasingly popular, it provides companies the speed and agility they need to stay on top.

The new and colorful Thermaltake Toughpower iRGB PLUS Platinum 1200W is aimed more at high-end users and technology geeks. The power supply offers a very good technology, high quality workmanship and, following the Eco-Trend, high efficiency. The numerous connection options and the clear DPS software feature complete the power PSU perfectly. Also the selling price goes in view of the offered achievement and quality in order. In short, technologu enthusiasts can easily take a look!
With that out of the way the in terms of rail stability and even noise levels the iRGB PLUS 1200W has nothing to be jealous from the GRAND RGB 1200W and vice versa so if you feel that Thermaltake's SPM is something you could put to good use this was made for you
All in all, the Toughpower iRGB PLUS has become a nice power supply that, of course, stands out because of the great RGB fan with its beautiful effects. The price of 180 euros can certainly be described as appropriate for all this. Away from the design, but you get a great power supply with very stable voltages, very high efficiency and otherwise excellent values.
It'd be nice to see Thermaltake release more high-performance PSUs in the near future. We've mentioned this many times before: it's bad when enthusiasts only have a handful of options at the high-end. More brands vying for the crown leads to stronger competition and better pricing. Thermaltake is a big company with the resources to do things correctly. If its people paid more attention to details, the TPI-1200F2FDP would be much better. For example, the inaccurate power-good signal in this unit is a huge oversight, which TT should fix before the product gets into too many hands. Hopefully, in the next revision of this platform, the problem will be solved. Moreover, Thermaltake should replace the mediocre Chemi-Con KZE cap on its +12V board, which gets quite hot under high loads. That'll notably restrict its already-short lifetime.
If you fancy RGB lighting and want a powerful (yet quiet) power supply, then the TPI-1200F2FDP is a decent choice in this competitive category. Its direct competition (Corsair, EVGA, Seasonic, SilverStone) lacks RGB-endowed options, so Thermaltake is practically playing alone in this efficiency class, at least for now.

Remote learning
Have you ever sat around a campfire at the base of a mountain in the Alaskan wilderness and wondered how that mountain formed? Jenny Arkle has.
While conducting research in Alaska for her master's degree, Jenny Arkle—who now teaches in environmental studies, geography and geology at Augustana—and a collaborator set their sights on an even more remote place to start research for her Ph.D. She wanted to answer the broader question of how earthquakes and mountains form in the interior of continents, away from tectonic plates. The National Geographic Society agreed, so they funded her research trip.
Arkle and her collaborator picked one of the most remote spots on earth, with a feeling of remoteness akin to Antarctica, according to Arkle (and she would know; she's been there, too). Mackenzie Mountain range in the Northwest Territories of Canada was their target. The plan was to take research they had gathered in Alaska and test it in Canada.
The trip began in Norman Wells, population 800, a village entirely supported by the hydrocarbon industry. There are no roads in or out, only a river that drains into the Beaufort Sea. From Norman Wells the crew needed to get up into the Mackenzie Mountains to collect rock samples, and the only way to get there was by float plane. So, Arkle and three colleagues stuffed two 18-foot rafts and everything they needed for a two-week expedition into two float planes. They landed in a small lake at the top of a mountain and it took two trips back and forth to get their gear to the Mountain River.
"From there is where the fun started," Arkle said.
Arkle didn't have a guide for this trip—she was the guide. She had spent 15 years as a whitewater rafting guide, and had been on the U.S. women's whitewater rafting team.
"I was living the dream as a guide but I wanted to pursue my interests in the study of the physical earth," Arkle said. So she found a way to mix her passion with science—rafting was just the vehicle to do the work, she explained.
Arkle was specifically looking for samples from the bottom of river canyons. They collected 600 pounds of rocks along the way, replacing food with rocks in their storage bins. Two people per raft rowed 2 tons of gear and rocks down the river, on days that stretched well beyond midnight that time of year.
What they found was a pulsive of uplift early in the development of the mountain. The team hypothesized that 30 million years ago the opening of the Atlantic Ocean was so violent the stress transferred over 2,000 miles to the west and drove the rise of the mountains.
Taking students to the extremes
This research was done using thermochronology—a method of geologic dating that's now available to Augustana students, thanks to Arkle. She set up a lab on campus that allows students to study how landscapes evolve through time. They can work on their own research, or they can continue the research begun by Arkle.
She plans to continue her work in the Northwest Territories and Mackenzie Mountains. However, she's also doing work concurrently in the Caribbean to study tectonic plates in that region. During Augustana's first J-term in January 2020, Arkle and her geology colleagues Dr. Kelsey Arkle and Dr. Mike Wolf will lead a class on the tropical island of Bonaire.
You would have thought that between Alaska, Northern Canada and Antarctica, Arkle is a snowbird. But wherever there are mountains to study, on land or below the sea, Jenny Arkle will be there.

Anne Sportun fine Jewellery began experimenting with jewellery in the basement of her childhood home where her father, a high school shop instructor, had a workshop full of tools. When Anne delivered her first wholesale order at the age of sixteen, she had no idea that she had taken the first steps of her professional career. Nor did she know that years later she would make the conscious decision to defer academic studies in Archaeology to enroll in a three year Jewellery Arts Program. Anne's passion for jewellery making set her on the path that would lead her to where she is today…
She is driven by her belief in a universal language of shape and form, looking to nature for inspiration. She translates the subtle beauty of organic asymmetry into her work which brings a sophisticated dichotomy to her pieces. In her work and in her life, she strives to combine the precious with the everyday. Awarded for her excellence in craftsmanship and contemporary design, her work is collected by those who share Anne's vision.

In Match2One, there is no minimum spend. However, there are a few things worth taking into consideration.
The algorithm used to make the most of your budget performs the best when it's allowed to optimise on "field results", serving ads and analysing the results. This means that the more impressions you get, and the longer your campaign runs - the better the optimisation gets.
When using a lower budget, you run a risk of stalling the optimisation, resulting in a much longer optimisation time and up to weeks of slow progress.
Therefore, we recommend having a daily spend of at least $20 USD to be able to feed the algorithm. The higher daily spend, the faster it will optimise.
Take into consideration that the timeframe is important as well. Preferably the campaign needs to run for at least 4 weeks. In the event of a strict budget, make sure to set your daily spend in accordance to the timeframe. It usually yields better results to have a mid spend over long time, rather than having a high spend for a short amount of time.

Just one day after the launch of DJI's newest smartphone gimbal, the previous model has been discounted by $21. The DJI Osmo Mobile 3 is on sale for $98 at Amazon and the combo kit, which includes the gimbal along with a carrying case, grip tripod and a few other accessories, dropped from $140 to $119. The Osmo Mobile 3 launched around this time last year and it has most of the same features, and a nearly identical design, to the new $150 OM4.
Buy Osmo Mobile 3 at Amazon - $98
Buy Osmo Mobile 3 combo kit at Amazon - $119
The biggest difference between the Osmo Mobile 3 and the OM4 is that the latter lets you attach your smartphone to it magnetically instead of using a traditional clamp mount. The OM4 comes with a magnetic "pop socket"-like attachment that you can leave on the back of your phone as well as a magnetic clip that breaks free from the gimbal and can be left on your smartphone in between uses. These options are much easier to use and more elegant than clamp mounts, even if they require you to keep an extra accessory on your smartphone for a while.
DJI also added some new features to its mobile app with the launch of the OM4, including Dynamic Zoom. However, it's likely that the Osmo Mobile 3 will gain the new app-based features in due time. So unless the magnetic mounting options will make your life a whole lot easier, you can stick with the Osmo Mobile 3 without missing too much of the OM4 experience.
DJI has the most name recognition in the smartphone gimbal space for good reason: both the Osmo Mobile 3 and the OM4 will cradle and stabilize your smartphone while you take the most cinematic videos possible. The company made huge updates to the device with last year's launch, making it more compact thanks to its foldable design. It'll shoot up to 15 hours of video before it needs to be recharged, and it has all of DJI's sold capture features including Story, Sport, TimeLapse and Slow Motion capture modes, ActiveTrack for keeping a certain subject center in the frame and easy access triggers for zooming and flipping your smartphone around to shoot in selfie view.

WALT DISNEY The business pioneer has inscribed and signed this printed illustration of Goofy. It's framed with an unsigned photo of Disney surrounded by many of his beloved animated characters Printed Illustration Inscribed and Signed: "To/ Ann/ Sincerely -/ Walt Disney". B/w, 7¼x9¼. Image of two cartoon drawings, one full-size and one of the head of "Goofy". Goofy, who became the symbol of "Everyman" in Disney cartoons, first appeared over six decades ago in "Mickey's Revue" (1932). Then a bit player, he was named Dippy Dawg until he got his "official" name for his goofy work in "Orphan's Benefit" (1934). Goofy became a star in the 1935 cartoon, "Moving Day", and his popularity resulted in his own line of Disney merchandise. Teamed with Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck in a number of cartoons, Goofy had his first starring role in 1939's "Goofy and Wilbur". Goofy later went on to appear in his own series of comic books (1953). A staple on the Disney Channel since its inception in 1983, Goofy got his own TV show, Goof Troop, in 1992, and he has appeared on the big screen in A Goofy Movie (1995) and The Three Musketeers (2004). Master animator Walt Disney (1901-1966) developed the first sound animated film, "Steamboat Willie" (1928), which introduced Mickey Mouse. Mickey's success spawned other equally unforgettable characters, such Donald Duck, Pluto, and Goofy. Disney Productions, incorporated in 1929, quickly assumed the lead in animated and true-life adventure films aimed at a family audience. Disney's influence on television and film productions for children cannot be overstated. The Disneyland amusement park opened in California on July 17, 1955. At the time of his death, Disney was involved in futuristic plans for an Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow (EPCOT), which would be added to Disney World in 1982). Today, the Walt Disney Company is one of the largest multi-national corporations in the world. Ink smudged at the flourish of Disney. Lightly creased. Slightly soiled at upper right blank margin. Otherwise, fine condition. Framed in the Gallery of History style: 30¾x21¼.

SCO stresses global cooperation on battling terror
SCO stresses global cooperation on battling terror
KABUL (Pajhwok): The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) has condemned terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, stressing enhanced global cooperation against the scourge.
Kyrgyzstan hosted a summit of the SCO in the Bishkek. Several leaders from member countries took part in the meeting on Friday.
The SCO members urged the international community to strengthen cooperation against terrorism. They stressed a central role for the UN in the campaign against the menace.
In this connection, they noted the signing of a cooperation memorandum between the Executive Directorate of the UN Security Council's Counter-Terrorism Committee and the SCO's Regional Anti-Terrorist Structure (RATS) in March 2019.
While stressing that there could be no justification for acts of terrorism and extremism, the member states underlined concrete steps to effectively counter terrorism and its ideology.
They also urged efforts to expose and eliminate various factors and conditions that facilitated terrorism and extremism. They opposed interference in internal affairs of states on the pretext of countering terrorism and extremism.
In a declaration, the SCO members also declared as unacceptable the use of terrorist, extremist and radical groups for mercenary purposes.
They signed the Code of Conduct to Achieve a Terrorism-Free World advocate the consistent implementation of its provisions (New York City, 28 September 2018).
The SCO members demanded the earliest possible enactment of a protocol on security guarantees to the Central Asian Nuclear-Weapons-Free Zone Treaty for all signatory states.
They rejected attempts to ensure one country's security at the expense of others and noted that the unilateral buildup of missile defence systems by certain countries was detrimental to international security.
The participants praised the work of the Group of UN Government Experts for reviewing and submitting recommendations on substantive elements of a legally binding international document for preventing an arms race in outer space and also stipulating reliable guarantees for the no first placement of arms in outer space.
The SCO members called for addressing high-priority tasks, including the illegal cultivation, production, circulation, sales and dissemination of drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors.
They reaffirmed their intention to step up joint efforts to fight the narcotic drug threat, including under the three international drug control conventions and other related legal documents.

Alexander Macco, the painter, after executing a portrait of the Queen of Prussia, in 1801, which caused much discussion in the public press but secured to him a pension of 100 thalers, went from Berlin to Dresden, Prague, and, in the summer of 1802, to Vienna. Here he became a great admirer of Beethoven, both as man and artist, and claimed and enjoyed so much of his society as the state of his mind and body would allow him to grant to any stranger. Macco remained but a few months here and then returned to Prague, whence he wrote the next year offering to Beethoven for composition an oratorio text by Prof. A. G. Meissner-a name just then well known in musical circles because of the publication .of the first volume of the biography of Kapellmeister Naumann. If Meissner had not removed from Prague to Fulda in 1805, and if Europe had remained at peace, perhaps Beethoven might, two or three years later, have availed himself of the offer; just now he felt bound to decline it, which he did in a letter dated November 2, 1803. In it he said:
I am sorry, too, that I could not be oftener with you in Vienna, but there are periods in human life which have to be overcome and often they are not looked upon from the right point of view, it appears that as a great artist you are not wholly unfamiliar with such, and so - I have not, as I observe, lost your good will, of which fact I am glad because I esteem you highly and wish that I might have such an artist in my profession to associate with. Meissner's proposal is very welcome, nothing could be more desirable than to receive such a poem from him, who is so highly honored as a writer and who understands musical poetry better than any other German author, but at present it is impossible for me to write this oratorio because I am just beginning my opera which, together with the performance, may occupy me till Easter -if Meissner is not in a hurry to publish his poem I should be glad if he were to leave the composition of it to me, and if the poem is not completed I wish he would not hurry it, since before or after Easter I would come to Prague and let him hear some of my compositions, which would make him more familiar with my manner of writing, and either-inspire him further or perhaps, make him stop altogether, etc.
Was, then, the correspondent of the "Zeitung für die Elegante Welt" right? Had Beethoven really received one of Schikaneder's heroic texts? This much is certain: that in the words "because I am just beginning my opera," no reference is made to the "Leonore" ("Fidelio"). They may only express his expectation of beginning such a work immediately; or they may refer to one already begun, of which a fragment has been preserved. In Rubric II of the sale catalogue of Beethoven's manuscripts and music, No. 67, is a "vocal piece with orchestra, complete, but not entirely orchestrated." It is an operatic trio'; the dramatis personæ are Porus, Volivia, Sartagones; the handwriting is that of this part of the composer's life; and the music is the basis of the subsequent grand duet in "Fidelio," "O namenlose Freude." The temptation is strong to believe that Schikaneder had given Beethoven another "Alexander," the scenes laid in India-a supplement to that with which his new theatre had been opened two years before. However this was, circumstances occurred, which prevented its completion, or indeed the composition by Beethoven of any text prepared by Schikaneder.
The compositions which may safely be dated 1803, are few in comparison with those of 1802. The works published in the course of the year were the two Pianoforte Sonatas, Op. 31, Nos. 1 and 2 (in Nägeli's "Répertoire des Clavecinistes"); the three Violin Sonatas, Op. 30 (Industrie-Comptoir); the two sets of Variations, Op. 34 and 35 (Breitkopf and Härtel); the seven Bagatelles, Op. 33 (Industrie-Comptoir); the Romanza in G for Violin, Op. 40 (Hoffmeister and Kühnel); the arrangement for Pianoforte and Flute (or Violin) Op. 41 of the Serenade (Op. 25), which was not made by Beethoven but examined by him and "corrected in parts" (Hoffmeister and Kühnel); the two Preludes for Pianoforte, Op. 39 (Hoffmeister and Kühnel); two songs, "La Partenza" and "Ich liebe dich" (Traeg); a song, "Das Glück der Freundschaft," Op. 88 (Löschenkerl in Vienna and Simrock in Bonn), of which Nottebohm found a sketch amongst the sketches for the "Eroica" Symphony in the book used in 1803 and which, therefore, though it may have been an early work, was probably rewritten in 1803; and the six Sacred Songs by Gellert, dedicated to Count Browne (Artaria). The two great works of the year were the "Kreutzer" Sonata for Violin and the "Sinfonia Eroica." The title of the former, "Sonata per il Pianoforte ed un Violino obligato in uno stilo (stile) molto concertante quasi come d'un Concerto," is found on the inner side of the last sheet of the sketchbook of 1803 described by Nottebohm. Beethoven wrote the word "brillante" after "stilo" but scratched it out. It is obvious that he wished to emphasize the difference between this Sonata and its predecessors. Simrock's tardiness in publishing the Sonata annoyed Beethoven. He became impatient and wrote to the publisher as follows, under date of October 4, 1804:
Dear, best Herr Simrock, I have been waiting with longing for the Sonata which I gave you-but in vain-please write me what the condition of affairs is concerning it—whether or not you accepted it from me merely as food for moths—or do you wish to obtain a special Imperial privilegium in connection with it?—well it seems to me that might have been accomplished long ago.—Where in hiding is this slow devil—who is to drive out the sonata-you are generally the quick devil, are known as Faust once was as being in league with the imp of darkness and for this reason you are loved by your comrades; but again—where in hiding is your devil-or what kind of a devil is it that sits on my sonata and with whom you have a misunderstanding?-Hurry, then, and tell me when I shall see the sonata given to the light of daywhen you have told me the date I will at once send a little note to Kreutzer, which you will please be kind enough to enclose when you send a copy (as you in any event will send your copies to Paris or even, perhaps, have them printed there)—this Kreutzer is a dear, good fellow who during his stay herel gave me much pleasure. I prefer his unassuming manner and unaffectedness to all the Extérieur or intérieur of all the virtuosi—as the sonata is written for a thoroughly capable violinist, the dedication to him is all the more appropriate although we correspond with each other (i.e., a letter from me once a year) I hope he will not have learned anything about it. ....
As a proof of the growing appreciation of Beethoven in foreign lands it may be remarked here that in the summer of 1803 he received an Erard pianoforte as a gift from the celebrated Parisian maker. The instrument belongs to the museum at Linz and used to bear an inscription, on the authority of Beethoven's brother Johann, that it was given to the composer by the city of Paris in 1804. The archives of the Erard firm show, however, that on the 18th of Thermidor, in the XIth year of the Republic (1803), Sébastien Erard made a present of "un piano forme clavecin" to Ludwig van Beethoven in Vienna.
1Kreutzer came to Vienna with Bernadotte in 1789.

ning—The "Waldstein" Sonata-Sonnleithner, Treitschke and Gaveaux—"Fidelio" Begun-Beethoven's Popularity.
able pass the mehikanederon to th
URING the winter 1803–04 negotiations were in progress the result of which put an end for the present to Beet
hoven's operatic aspirations. Let Treitschke, a personal actor in the scenes, explain:
On February 24, 1801, the first performance of "Die Zauberflöte" took place in the Royal Imperial Court Theatre beside the Kärnthnerthor. Orchestra and chorus as well as the representatives of Sarastro (Weinmüller), the Queen of Night (Mme. Rosenbaum), Pamina (Demoiselle Saal) and the Moor (Lippert) were much better than before. It remained throughout the year the only admired German opera. The loss of large receipts and the circumstance that many readings were changed, the dialogue shortened and the name of the author omitted from all mention, angered S. (Schikaneder) greatly. He did not hesitate to give free vent to his gall, and to parody some of the vulnerable passages in the performance. Thus the change of costume accompanying the metamorphosis of the old woman into Papagena seldom succeeded. Schikaneder, when he repeated the opera at his theatre, sent a couple of tailors on to the stage who slowly accomplished the disrobing, etc. These incidents would be trifles had they not been followed by such significant consequences; for from that time dated the hatred and jealousy which existed between the German operas of the two theatres, which alternately persecuted every novelty and ended in Baron von Braun, then manager of the Court Theatre, purchasing the Theater-an-der-Wien in 1804, by which act everything came under the staff of a single shepherd but never became a single flock.
Zitterbarth had, some months before, purchased of Schikaneder all his rights in the property, paying him 100,000 florins for the privilegium alone; and, therefore, being absolute master, "had permitted a dicker down to the sum of 1,060,000 florins Vienna standard. ... The contract was signed on February
11th and on the 16th the Theater-an-der-Wien under the new arrangement was opened with Méhul's opera 'Ariodante.'".
Zitterbarth had retained Schikaneder as director; but now Baron Braun dismissed him, and the Secretary of the Court Theatres, Joseph von Sonnleithner, for the present acted in that capacity.
The sale of the theatre made void the contracts with Vogler and Beethoven, except as to the first of Vogler's three operas, "Samori" (text by Huber), which being ready was put in rehearsal and produced May 7th.
It was no time for Baron Braun, with three theatres on his hands, to make new contracts with composers, until the reins were fairly in his grasp, and the affairs of the new purchase brought into order and in condition to work smoothly; nor was there any necessity of haste; the repertory was so well supplied, that the list of new pieces for the year reached the number of forty-three, of which eighteen were operas or Singspiele. So Beethoven, who had already occupied the free lodgings in the theatre building for the year which his contract with Zitterbarth and Schikaneder granted him, was compelled to move. Stephan von Breuning even then lived in the house in which in 1827 he died. It was the large pile of building belonging to the Esterhazy estates, known as "das rothe Haus," which stood at a right angle to the Schwarzspanier house and church, and fronted upon the open space where now stands the new VotivKirche. Here also Beethoven now took apartments.?
It is worth noting, that this was the year—October, 1803 to October, 1804—of C. M. von Weber's first visit to Vienna, and of his studies under Vogler. He was then but eighteen years old and "the delicate little man" made no very favorable impression upon Beethoven. But at a later period, when Weber's noble dramatic talent became developed and known, no former prejudice prevented the great symphonist's due appreciation and hearty acknowledgment of it.
Among the noted strangers who came to Vienna this spring was Clementi.
"He sent word to Beethoven that he would like to see him." "Clementi will wait a long time before Beethoven goes to him," was the reply. Thus Czerny.
When he came (says Ries) Beethoven wanted to go to him at once, but his brother put it into his head that Clementi ought to
1 Allg. Mus. Zeit. XXIV, p. 320. *But Ries says that Beethoven hired these lodgings besides those in the theatre.

The way people hold a mouse, along with the amount of pressure they apply, is unique."It's not just how much pressure you exert on the mouse itself, but it's also the x-y coordinates of your position," Kaufman said.

After two years of negative price changes resulting in a lively debate regarding the risks of deflation, we are about to embark on a period of rising inflation. This change in direction, which began already in October, will gain in intensity over the coming months, the year ending with inflation clearly positive and climbing to 1.3% in 2016. This recovery in inflation is mainly due to three factors, which we will now discuss.
Firstly, between November and January the base effect will have disappeared from the sharp fall in oil prices occurring during these months one year ago, so that general inflation will rise quite sharply (we believe it will reach 0.6% in December 2015). It should be noted that this increase will still occur even if oil prices remain at their current level or fall slightly (see the first graph). In fact, we expect oil prices to increase throughout 2016, also playing their part to push up inflation.
A second element that will boost prices in 2016 will be the euro's depreciation against the dollar as a consequence of the divergence between monetary policies on both sides of the Atlantic: while the ECB is expected to take its expansionary policies even further, the Fed will embark on monetary normalisation. The euro's depreciation will mean that Spain will import inflation from countries outside the euro area. A depreciated euro therefore affects the general consumer price index (CPI) by making imports more expensive, pushing up the cost of all intermediate goods bought abroad such as, for example, oil and other commodities. Moreover, the relationship between the exchange rate and some imported industrial products, especially those used for consumer durables which have a significant relative weight of 11% of the whole CPI, is strong and negative. In other words, when the euro depreciates, the import price of these goods rises (see the second graph). Depending on the capacity of companies to vary their operating margin, this impact will be passed on more or less to the consumer price. Based on a study by the ECB,1 we can expect the euro's depreciation against the rest of the currencies of Spain's main trading partners, totalling about 3% in 2015, will have an effect in the short and medium term. Specifically, this depreciation of the nominal effective exchange rate, caused mainly by the dollar gaining strongly in value, could push up inflation by almost 0.2 pps in the next two years. Moreover, given that the euro is expected to go on depreciating quite considerably against the dollar in 2016, this channel will continue to boost inflation.
Finally there is also the improvement in the labour market, with an expected increase in the number of employees of close to 400,000 in 2016 (after 900,000 between 2014 and 2015), which will have a favourable effect on household income and confidence, in turn stimulating consumption and consequently prices. We therefore predict that core inflation will continue to recover and reach 1.3% in 2016 compared with 0.6% in 2015.
In summary, we expect inflation to come back in 2016 and gradually approach the ECB's target. The next phase will therefore be one of rising inflation.

Wynton Marsalis
Wynton Marsalis, jazz trumpeter and musical educator tours with the orchestra from the Lincoln Jazz Centre.
Showing an aptitude for music at an early age, the New Orleans-born Marsalis has over the years played with names such as Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Rollins and Herbie Hancock. Not only is he the artistic director of Jazz at the Lincoln Centre he is devoted to bringing music to youngsters. Despite winning nine Grammy's for his work, over the course of his illustrious career he's known many a critic who complain that his music isn't in the true style of jazz and that he is stuck in a certain, limited period and that this has stunted the progression and popularity of other types of jazz.
Whatever you're a purist or not there's no denying his popularity, he's toured every continent in the world and is returning to Spain, seven years after his last performance, this time as part of the Grec Festival.

Are you plugged into God?
Hello everyone! Happy Friday…and welcome today, to Moments Spent with God…through the Risen Hope Ministries! I pray that your day will be a good one…filled with the loving and powerful presence…of a God, who longs to love and care for you…especially while facing the most challenging moments of life!
Night before last, I had a very unusual dream…and it happened, just before my alarm went off the next morning. In this dream, I was sitting on a couch and I was talking with some people across from me and while I was talking to them, I was trying to find a verse in the Bible. As I kept flipping through the pages of my Bible, I began to hear a beeping sound and before I knew it, I was waking up to my alarm. What was really different; is that I woke up, with Romans 12:2 on my mind. One thing I can say for sure…I've never experienced a dream like that before!
Anyways…after waking up, I was starting to get around and God seemed to make it evident; that this is what I would be writing on today; so let's look up Romans 12:2, which reads…"And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."
There is one thing that has truly put me to the test this week and that is to be able to focus on the right thoughts, during the most difficult times. One thing we truly need to remember as Christians; is that we need to leave the old mind and the old way of thinking behind and allow God to renew our minds; so that we can be able to see the good things…even through the worst of days.
I think that if we were to agree on one thing; that would be that it's not always easy to have a positive attitude, while experiencing a negative moment; but you know…it's amazing how a positive thought can actually make that bad moment not seem as bad, as what we first saw it.
If we are ever going to see how God can carry us through these difficult times; then first, we need to be in alignment with Him and be of Him…not against Him…and the only way He has shown me how to do that; is to stop…take a deep breath and focus on who God really is; so in the end, we find ourselves conformed to His ways, instead of being conformed to a worldly way of handling our problems.
Just think…when we allow God to transform our thinking after His; can you imagine what life would be like? I believe that we would not only begin to see the good through the bad; but I also believe that by living in this way, we will find ourselves acceptable to God, as He continues to work through our thoughts and our hearts; as a means of leading us closer and closer, to the true plan and purpose He has for our lives. You know…if our minds are not in tune with God; then how will we ever discover His best for our lives? This is truly something to think on!
Today, you may feel lost within the problems you're facing…with your thoughts taking you everywhere; but to where God is. May I encourage you to lay aside your own thoughts and ideas; so God can transform and renew your mind…so that you are only plugged into His thoughts and ideas for your life? I truly believe that once we allow His thoughts to become our thoughts; then this will become the time, when we discover that life can be much easier…even through the toughest times!
Blessings on your day!
It's Always & Only Because of Him…

Lily Pie
She looks like she's either going to a hip hop dance, join a gang or go to the gym in this outfit! I can't get over what a happy baby she is!!
Don't worry...I was close by for this picture so she didn't roll off, but I just couldn't get over how small she looked asleep on the big couch!
Do you read multiple blogs per day? If so, plug them all into the "Google Reader" and they will monitor them all and let you know when there is a new post! This has been a HUGE timesaver for me because I don't have to check every blog I read to see if there is a new post. Thanks Jen for finding this timesaving lifesaver for my blogging life!!
I haven't talked about going back to work on the blog because I think a part of me is in denial (big time!) and it seems so far away, but September is starting to creep up on me!! It causes me a lot of stress (tears, lost sleep, denial, etc) to think about being away from Lily when I'm back to work and I'm trying to focus on the present and not fast forward too much.
Good news is I just found out this week that Kelle wants to watch Lily this year!!!! That makes my heart SO happy to know how loved she is by Kelle already and she'll be marinating in this love everyday! Not to mention her daughter Lainey is such an incredibly sweet girl and an awesome role model for Lily!! It'll still be incredibly difficult to be away from Lily, but this helps to soften the blow tremendously!! What a blessing that someone who is like family will be with Lily everyday!! Happy (and scared) sigh.
PS There is an highly sought after opening at our previous planned sitter's house who is INCREDIBLE! She came HIGHLY recommended by so many people and is extremely caring and loving. She treats her babies/kids as her own. I taught her daughter years ago and she is such a sweetie! Email me if you know anyone interested at firstname.lastname@example.com ....you won't be disappointed with Dawn!
David, Lily and I are off to the Hyatt this weekend! This was Lily's gift to me on Mother's Day. I can't wait as this is my favorite place on earth!! I love everything about it!! Especially the short drive home on Sunday!! I would've chosen to go there on our honeymoon if I knew about it 7 years ago....that's how much I love it! I'm sure I'll have lots of pictures when we return! Lily also bought me a massage for when we're there so that should be heavenly!! Carrying her and that awkward carseat can really twist things up in my neck/back. She's so thoughtful! ;)

Oh shit. You are so lucky. That is so awesome that your great pal will watch your girl. SO amazing. I know you know it, but I really know it having recently taken my girl to daycare a few hours a week with peops I know very little. See how I need that qualifier with the "few hours a week" bit? It is hard stuff.
Sure it will still be hard for you to not know what she is doing every minute of the day but one thing that was true for me (after getting out of my head) is that it really was harder for me than bug...she actually totally digs it. I know Lily will love being with Lainey and Kelle.
Enjoy the last bit of your leave! A massage at the Hyatt sounds like a great start.

so happy that you have the security in knowing that Lily will be so well taken care of, and so much more, when you go back:):) How blessed you are to have that. Kelle is sooooo lucky too, as she gets to watch the magic between two little girls grow together each day.
I know it will all be well documented, too!!!!

what a lucky mama you are...
having a really good friend that will watch your little one while you go back to work.
i've been there. i'm gonna be there again soon too. the end of summer break is much too near. sad thoughts about bringing the girly-girls back to daycare...we'll all get through it together? (along with some more of the bloggy world!)
good luck to you...if you need any hints for those first few days...i'm willing to confess what has worked for me!

She is so precious and yes so happy! I am so happy for you that Kelle is going to watch her! That is so amazing and such a relief! Kelle is honestly the next best thing other than you being with her! I know how you feel as I can't even think or talk about Jan. But Lily is in the best hands with Kelle and Lainey and I will be with her a lot during the day too while I am home:) Hope your weekend was awesome:) Can't wait to hear all about it!

Well, I didn't say that. Michael Rooker is my very good friend, he was here visiting me in England and we were hanging out. He was here playing with my dog and having a good time. He's got a new, little Mohawk that looks ridiculous on him, but yeah, he's here and hopefully we'll get something going. Michael's been in two of my movies, we've done two movies together, two reality shows, a short film, so I don't think it would be crazy to think he would be involved in Guardians in some way.
I think there's – here's the thing: there are a lot of people who have a lot of ideas of who is right for Rocket Racoon. Rocket Racoon has been slightly different over the years, in the comic books, and within my scripts he is a very, very specific guy, and I think people are going to have to wait for a few weeks before they see [who will be cast]. We'll get our dream guy, because a lot of people want to do it, so we'll get the person who's perfect for the role.
I do think we're very, very different from Star Wars. Some of the concept art that came out is under my tutelage, and some of it is before my tutelage. The concept art that came out is only stuff that was on the big Marvel collected disc set, talking about phase two and it had some stuff from Guardians. Some of the art by Charlie Wen and the guys.
The Rocket that was by itself was an early version of my Rocket that I dealt with Charlie when developing. He doesn't look so much like that anymore, but there's a lot of similarities in that he's more of a grounded, real little creature as opposed to a cartoonish thing.
We did. I've done a lot of studying with real racoons, and we had real racoons come in. We've done photography with them, I've played with racoons, and fed racoons, and dealt a lot with real racoons to get some of the behaviour down, because it's really, really important to me that Rocket Racoon, who is the heart of the movie, is not a cartoon character, it's not Bugs Bunny in the middle of The Avengers, it's a real, little, somewhat mangled beast that's alone. There's no one else in the universe quite like him, he's been created by these guys to be a mean-ass fighting machine.
In some ways yes, but in some ways no. In terms of a lot of stuff we're very much like The Avengers, where it's a very big, huge movie. It's different because it's cosmic, it's in outer space, it's very colourful. We have a whole history of science fiction behind us that we're dealing with, and borrowing from, and also fighting with to create something unique. But at the same time there's a lot of stuff it has in common with The Avengers. How you define a superhero movie is very difficult. To say that Drax or Gamora aren't super heroes, it's difficult. Even Quill. They are superheroes in a way. I think it is a superhero movie.
[smiling] Maybe. [laughs]. Everybody knows Chris Pratt is in the movie, and I saw maybe 80 to 100 guys read for Peter Quill. I was very specific that I wanted it to be somebody really extraordinary. I really had Robert Downey Jr in mind a lot. You had this guy who came in and he inhabited Tony Stark, when you first saw Tony Stark he blew your mind, you couldn't believe what you were seeing. I knew that I needed somebody to blow my mind like that.
We saw a lot of very famous guys for the role, a lot of very well-known people, and very, very good actors. We saw a lot of good performances, but it wasn't until Chris came in and he read and I was like, 'oh my God', this guy has his own, very particular, amazing take on the character that blew my mind, blew me away. Then I thought, this is the first guy I could see sharing the screen with Robert Downey Jr and giving him a run for his money.
We haven't really come out with our cast, people have gotten hold of some things, but I will say one thing: Dave Bautista is one of the most naturally gifted actors I have ever seen in my life. The guy has access to his emotions in a way that I have seen very few people able to do, and if he did get the role of Drax – I'll tell you, nobody else was ever offered that role, at all; anything you heard about that is bullshit, and if he did get the role, it's 100% because of his ability to access his emotions, more so than anything else. And it just so happens that the guy was created in the cast of Drax when he was born, he looks just like Drax.
No. That just means that all our movies are connected, we're created in a way that we're very connected to the movies that came before us, we're even more connected to The Avengers 2, that comes after us, and so in that respect, what we would hope is that these characters would continue, and that at some point in time they'll all meet up with different characters throughout the galaxy.

80-90% of the forum community (who have bothered to reply to this post), which consists of what, 5% max of the game playerbase? I'm not going to bother counting individual profiles on this thread, but I'd assume there's probably only 30-40 different people commenting on this thread.
The community on the forums is not always representative of the community as a whole. The people who gravitate to the forums are usually either players who are bored, genuinely want to make the game better, or are really upset about something and want to vent. A topic on a controversial change immediately after an update usually tends to attract more of the third.
All that being said, I do agree that a disproportionate number of players aren't happy right now, though I think most of that is because of the lag...If lag wasn't an issue on release, I think there would be a lot less uproar about the change. Obviously there are quite a few who think it's a great or horrible idea, but honestly I think a lot of players simply don't really care that much about whether or not the castle is cross-server or not.

At the Starting Point
BC Law Aids Smarter in the City, a unique initiative for Boston-area minority entrepreneurs
Dudley Square in Roxbury is not a place readily associated with entrepreneurs. So when Gilad Rosenzweig, an MIT-educated architect, urban planner and founder of the high-tech accelerator Smarter in the City, announced his plans to provide six months of free workspace and professional mentorship for minority entrepreneurs in the heart of one of Boston's poorest neighborhoods, his vision was met with some cynicism from those accustomed to seeing entrepreneurial investment directed across the Charles River to Kendall Square.
One of the exceptions, Rosenzweig says, was Boston College Law School Dean Vince Rougeau, who immediately offered the services of BC Law students to provide all facets of legal assistance to the five high-tech start-ups Rosenzweig had chosen for Smarter in the City's first cohort.
Less than three months into the semester, both parties say, the result has been a highly successful, mutually beneficial collaboration that has provided coveted hands-on experience for BC's third-year law students, and invaluable legal work in incorporation, contracts, taxation and intellectual property that the aspiring entrepreneurs desperately need and could not otherwise afford.
It is an exercise in experiential learning, Rougeau says, that provides a new way of thinking about what law students can do to prepare themselves for the ever-changing world of corporate law. Just as importantly, he says, it is an investment in the inner city and in minority-led innovation that reflects the mission and core values of BC Law.
The leaders of the five startups — Post Game Fashion, Practice Gigs, Mbadika, HeadThought and KillerBoomBox.com — all describe the legal expertise they have received from the students as indispensable to their quest to successfully launch their businesses, with many saying they have actually restructured their business models as a result of the legal advice.
"The work of our law student, Andrew Lee, has provided an amazing benefit for us that has redefined our corporate structure," said Hazel Zengemi, the chief technology officer for Mbadika, a social venture startup committed to fostering youth-driven entrepreneurship in sub-Saharan Africa. "We were set up as an LLC as a result of an MIT competition, but it did not seem to resonate with our business plan. Andrew listened to our concerns and then advised us to pursue non-profit status. I am an MIT graduate and technology expert who does not know the law, and legal advice is so expensive, so getting this service for free was indispensable to us.
"Andrew is also directing our incorporation and patent efforts in our proposed markets of Ghana, Tanzania and South Africa, all of which frees us up to focus on our entrepreneurial strengths."
The law students, in turn, say that the partnership has given them direct transactional experience in the innovation economy, experience that will be crucial to their own future success as business lawyers.
"All of us have studied corporations, but until you have practical experience you can't fully realize what transactional law entails," said Laura Gallo of Cranford, NJ, who received her undergraduate degree from Georgetown University. "I am writing bylaws, forming a non-profit organization, researching tax laws and addressing issues of intellectual property for a client I greatly admire. Working with Gilad on behalf of Smarter in the City gave me a unique opportunity to help him see his vision come to fruition. It is dynamic, exciting work that is also very satisfying."
Kelly Hinkel of North Smithfield, RI, a Lafayette College graduate, works with entrepreneur Keith Donaldson of the startup HeadThought, which has devised a mobile application to improve information flow and conversations across multiple channels.
"This internship has helped me to gain direct, practical experience in a way I would not have been afforded as an intern at a law firm," she says. "There are a lot of issues to be dealt with on a moving basis, which makes it challenging, and the direct contact with my client and opposing attorneys is so helpful in applying what I have learned in the classroom. My classmates who do transactional law tell me they are jealous of my experience."
The internships at Smarter in the City are made possible through the Legal Services LAB in the Law School's Center for Experiential Learning, which is described by Associate Dean for Experiential Learning Paul Tremblay as a "law firm within a law school."
"Our LAB clinics offer students the opportunity to practice law as lead counsel with full responsibility for all of the legal work on behalf of inspiring new businesses," said Tremblay. "The Smarter in the City projects are especially exciting because the entrepreneurs working at the incubator are engaged in such cutting-edge work. The startups need sophisticated and complex legal assistance, which our students are ready to offer.
"It also helps that the Smarter in the City cohort is developing innovative startup projects that could really take off someday. This is a terrific way for students to learn how to be effective, productive lawyers."
BC Law Professor Alfred C. Yen, who directs the school's business law program, agrees.
"The Smarter in the City partnership is valuable because it gives students first-hand experience in how disparate areas of our curriculum combine in the business world," said Yen. "It's particularly valuable to the education we provide because, although teachers mention how intellectual property, contract, and corporate law combine with others, it isn't until a student sees the importance of different areas of law to a single client that the message really hits home."
The partnership is central to the vision that Rougeau has articulated for BC Law: to prepare his students to use their talents to reshape the world around them. "In addition to the practical experiential opportunities it provides, this collaboration connects us to our social justice commitment in our outreach to people of color in Boston," said Rougeau. "It's a most productive and empowering way to fulfill our mission."
That vision resonates with the program's founder.
"From day one, entrepreneurs must learn answers to questions regarding how to start a company: What do I need to know regarding trademark infringements and protecting intellectual property? Where might I be liable?" said Rosenzweig. "The BC Law students provide answers to these questions. They tell me that they love the experience because there are wonderful problems and learning opportunities here, but I know they also love being a part of something bigger.
"We are addressing the lack of opportunity for entrepreneurs in inner-city neighborhoods and minority communities. We are showing a new face to the city and the high-tech sector to get over the misconception of what people are capable of. We are creating equality in the city, and thanks to the entrepreneurs, the mentors and BC Law students, I know we can make a difference."

Detritus in K/T boundary clays of western North America; Evidence against a single oceanic impact
Published:January 01, 1990
V. L. Sharpton, B. C. Schuraytz, K. Burke, A. V. Murali, G. Ryder, 1990. "Detritus in K/T boundary clays of western North America; Evidence against a single oceanic impact", Global Catastrophes in Earth History; An Interdisciplinary Conference on Impacts, Volcanism, and Mass Mortality, Virgil L. Sharpton, Peter D. Ward

Understanding the crustal signature of impact ejecta contained in the Cretaceous/Tertiary (K/T) boundary layer is crucial to constraining the possible site(s) of the postulated K/T impact event. The relatively unaltered clastic constituents of the boundary layer at widely separated outcrops within the Western Interior of North America are not compatible with a single oceanic impact but require instead an impact site on a continent or continental margin. On the other hand, chemical compositions of highly altered K/T boundary layer components in some marine sections have suggested to others an impact into oceanic crust. We suspect that post-depositional alteration within the marine setting accounts for this apparent oceanic affinity. If, however, this is not the case, multiple simultaneous impacts, striking continent as well as ocean floor, would seem to be required.

CONCORD- Today, the State Board of Education voted 4-3 in favor of draft rules implementing the Learn Everywhere program. The innovative education initiative would allow New Hampshire public school students to earn credit toward graduation for accredited learning outside of the classroom. In 2018, the Legislative approved and Gov. Chris Sununu signed SB 435, directing the State Board of Education to adopt rules "relative to the approval of alternative programs for granting credit leading to graduation."
"Learn Everywhere will expand learning opportunities outside the classroom, giving students and parents greater control over their high school educations," said Education Commissioner Frank Edelblut, an early champion of the Learn Everywhere program. "I want to thank New Hampshire's education community for embracing the spirit of innovation, and thank the Board for supporting Learn Everywhere."
Under the proposed rules, for-profit and non-profit organizations wishing to offer credit under Learn Everywhere must apply to the State Board of Education, which would review the proposal and maintain oversight of it. To ensure that every New Hampshire public school student has equal opportunity to obtain Learn Everywhere credits, all schools must allow a student to earn up to 1/3 of his or her required graduation credits through the Learn Everywhere program. Schools may, but are not required to, accept as much as 100 percent of credits required for high school graduation.
"Learn Everywhere offers all New Hampshire children the opportunity to earn high school graduation credits in a promising variety of rigorous programs that otherwise might not exist in their local school district. Learn Everywhere will create new learning opportunities, and empower New Hampshire families to build better educations for their children," said Andrew Cline, Chairman of the State Board of Education. "I'm looking forward to seeing the innovative and engaging programs that New Hampshire businesses and non-profits design."
The draft rules will now be sent to the Joint Legislative Committee on Administrative Rules (JLCAR).
