Streaming giant Netflix, which is one of the oldest streaming service providers and original content maker. However, recently it has been into a deep competition with several other streaming service providers. As we know, Netflix holds the biggest share when it comes to paid streaming service, because YouTube is the greatest but most of the content on YouTube is free.
Netflix has decided to raise $2 billion in debt to bring in more original content. Netflix has a gigantic library and tons of original shows and movies. But still, Netflix knows that being satisfied with whatever achieved will endanger their current status. Hulu, HBO is one of the biggest threats for Netflix right now.
Hulu has geared up to make more collaborations and produce original content to grow faster. This has made Netflix worried about the competition. Not just that, Amazon is also producing new content such as "Jack Ryan" which is creating buzz.
Netflix has noted that new films and shows such as "To All The Boys I've Loved Before" are what viewers eye for. To provide more relevant content, they must order appropriate content and high-quality production. However, Netflix has canceled shows like Iron "Fist and Luke Cage" which has left everyone in shock. But I think that the decision was to confront Disney's new streaming service which might affect Netflix.
So, Netflix knows exactly what it is doing, and might even have an approximate calculation on how it will help the streaming giant. If we consider viewers' point of view, then it is surely good news for them. This will lead to more new shows and movies which will entertain the users of Netflix!

Advisor Warns About Election Promises
Don't make promises about government spending that you won't be able to keep. That's the warning to Sweden's politicians by the chairman of the Swedish Fiscal Policy Council, Lars Calmfors, ahead of this autumn's General Election.
He says that the uncertain economic recovery around the globe could easily go off the rails, causing a double-dip recession that would also hit Sweden. Promises of extra cash for different parts of the welfare state might then be hard to realise, he claims.
Speaking to SR International Professor Calmfors says that cutbacks around the world to reduce huge budget deficits could lead to higher interest rates, which would also have a knock on effect in terms of reduced consumption, and that would even affect countries like Sweden, he says, with lower exports meaning less production and higher unemployment.
The Swedish Fiscal Policy Council was set up by the government to be an independent body looking at its fiscal policy, and Lars Calmfors says fiscal policy during the recession has been OK, Sweden currently has stable state finances, with relatively small debts in comparison with its BNP
Compared to other countries Sweden gets a good mark, he says, but the government could still have handled some things better. They should have done more in 2009, for example, as the financial crisis exploded. Things are looking ok for 2010, and it's a bit too early to say what will happen in 2011, Lars Calmfors says. That also applies to political parties making promises ahead of the September elections, he adds.
"They have to be very careful", he says. "We don't know how long the international financial turbulence will last. We don't know what long-term effects it will have on our public finances. So politicians have to be very careful when it comes to promising reforms. It may even be the case that they will have to withdraw some of the reforms already implemented".
Professor Lars Calmfors adds that there is some leeway in the Swedish state finances for extra temporary measures should the country slip back into recession, for example extending the extra cash given to local councils and municipalities for another year, but the main priority is to make sure that Sweden's finances stay healthy even if the world economy deteriorates again. On a positive note he points out that Sweden is in a better position than many other countries, thanks to actions by both the current and previous governments.

HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON (AP) — Diplomats credited Russia with another strong bid for international good will today in its agreement to join the Western powers in setting up a worldwide atoms-for-peace agency. A 12-nation conference, including the Soviet Union and the United States, agreed last night on a charter for the proposed new organization which would function under the general sponsorship of the United Nations. The charter will be presented an 84-nation conference which w meet at U. N. headquarters New York in September. , The agreement was annoiuiC' by the State Department after series of meetings which bega Feb. 27. The action appears to assui creation of a project initiated President Eisenhower in Decerr ber 1953. He called for an inte national atoms - for - peace po which would spread,the benefits peaceful atomic power over th world. To Pool Material In essence the organization designed to pool contributed atom ic materials from the Unite States, Russia, Britain, Franc and Canada primarily, and mak them, available to applicant coun tries which lack the knowledg and Industrial resources for pro ducing their own atomic fuels. In the consuming countries th fuels will be."burned" in atomi furnaces to produce electric pow e rand thereby raise the Industrie level and living standards. Russia for more than a year am a. half refused to cooperate am the Western powers went ahead on their own. At the Geneva summ conference last July Premier Nik olai Bulganin told Eisenhowe Russia would contribute fission able material if an agency wa set up. Subsequently Moscow agreed to take part in the confer ence here. Its representative wa? Ambassador Georgi N. Zarubin. Conceded Two Points Early in the sessions Zarubin conceded two points which helpec to make the final outcome pos: ble. He dropped a bid to include Red China. He also yielded on Soviet proposal that the new agei cy be subject to the big power veto, la the U. N. Security Council The Soviete are reported to have sta ted reswrVaTSbn.Sj^Q^ points of the charter'/-' joined in making adoption of the charter by the 12-country group unanimous. Not all the objections came from Russia, however. India and some other nonalomic powers are reported to have protested that some early drafts would have given them little say in the agency- This was the third Soviet action this week seemingly calculated to promote the idea that Russia is now cooperating in constructive developments. Other Indications Others were an offer of cooperation in U. N. ei'forts to make peace between Israel and the Arab states' and the announced dissolution of the international communist information agency, the Cominform. American officials remain highly skeptical of Soviet aims in these maneuvers, but they concede thev. have wide appeal for millions off people. i The machinery provided by the charter for the new atomic agency consists essentially of: 1.

The action Was needed to bolster farm income, Benson said in a statement prepared for the, Senate Agriculture Committee, because "we do not have the weapons we had counted on to pull down the surplus and strengthen farm prices. Benson was called before the committee to explain the price support-boosting action announced by President Eisenhower in .his message vetoing a Democratic- backed farm bill. The measure contained the soil bank plan. It also had numerous support-boost- ng features which the administration disliked. Some Democrats have questioned the propriety of Eisenhowers action suggested it ran counter to ad- ninistration arguments that high supports encourage " overproduction. • Ample Authority Benson said farm law establishing the administration - backed flexible price support system gives ample authority for raising supports after they are once set. "The law provides that the basic commodities may be supported above the minimum levels .specified in the flexible scale, Benson said. Under the Presidents action supports for wheat were raisec from 76 to 83.7 per cent of parity corn from 81 to 80.2 and rice fro: 75 to 82.7. Parity is a standard for measuring farm prices declared by law to be fair to farmers in relation to their costs. On Soil Bank Prospects Benson emphasised that the increases in supports are "based the prospect of sound soil bank, legislation that would attack the surplus problem head-on.

The National Union of Greece (Greek: Εθνική Ένωσις Ελλάδος, Ethniki Enosis Ellados or EEE) was an anti-Semitic nationalist party established in Thessaloniki, Greece, in 1927.
Registered as a Christians could join. Its members were opposed to Thessaloniki's substantial Jewish population.
It was led by
Owing to its paramilitary uniforms and organisation, the party was commonly referred to as "The Three Epsilons" (τα Τρία Εψιλον) or "The Steelhelmets" (οι Χαλυβδόκρανοι), in allusion to the German paramilitary Stahlhelm.
Estimates put the party's strength at 7,000 members in 1932; by 1933, it had 3,000 members march to Athens, in apparent imitation of Benito Mussolini's 1922 March on Rome.[2] However, it polled miserably in the 1934 city elections in Thessaloniki, and in 1935, the party imploded as a result of in-fighting. It was revived by the German occupation authorities in 1942, during the Axis Occupation of Greece; many members of EEE became prominent collaborators of the Nazis, and many more joined the Security Battalions and helped in the identification of Greek Jews.
The party's leaders were the main defendants in the trial held after the Campbell Riot of 29 June 1931, in which Greek nationalist mobs attacked the Jewish "Campbell" settlement in the city. (A co-defendant was Nikolaos Nikos Fardis (Νίκος Φαρδής), editor-in-chief of the Makedonia newspaper.)

Hair Metal Monday 05/11/2015
In the wake of Guns N' Roses massive success in 1988 major labels were climbing all over themselves to sign any band out of L.A. that had more than a couple of tattoos and looked like they hadn't bathed in weeks. While glam certainly wasn't dead, the tide had shifted.
Indeed the offers were so hard to resist even punk rock royalty got swept up: Junkyard was a band quickly put together to capitalize on that feeding frenzy, featuring legendary guitarist Brian Baker (Minor Threat, Fugazi, Bad Religion).
The band released 2 albums in their original incarnation before disbanding in 1991. All 3 of their videos got decent MTV play but the major success Geffen Records had counted on never materialized. They still play sporadically to this day and have released several independent records since reforming in the early 2000's.

Young geographers at Bedford School will soon begin a major survey of their environment, measuring and mapping everything from building density to noise levels in central Bedford. When they present their findings to the local council, the fourth-formers will be sure of their ground. Like the council, they reach decisions with the help of geographical information systems technology.
"GIS has the potential to revolutionise geography teaching," says Dr Adrian Johnson, who has been planning the survey with his students. It's one of the exercises he and fellow professionals outlined recently at a seminar organised by the Royal Geographical Society with the Institute of British Geographers, highlighting sources of help with GIS for schools. For while many teachers may recognise the benefits, few have managed to introduce the technology into their classrooms.
GIS is used in more than 30 industries to make new connections between information and location. Where to site a new skatepark? How to regenerate a river? Why the local increase in mobile phone thefts? GIS software can bring together digital maps, images and all kinds of geographically referenced information, from rainfall figures to census results, to help provide the answers.
However, teachers say it takes too long to get the show on the road. There isn't time for them to find their way around the software packages - which are often designed for use by experts - and track down the right data to feed the system.
At the RGS-IBG, work began two years ago on a scheme to help. Education officer Judith Mansell says: "We found many teachers were saying, 'I know GIS is good, but how do I get started?'."
The society has produced web resources explaining the technology, together with case studies of GIS in action in classrooms. There's also a software guide - the result of an evaluation carried out by teachers and a GIS specialist. Work is now focused on making it easier for teachers to source data.
The society's professional development day in November showed how the use of GIS not only gives students an opportunity to apply all their geography skills, it also helps them understand how geography is used in everyday life.
At Bedford School, students are working with ArcView software, a package used in industry. For their environmental survey, four groups will be armed with a mini-version of the software on a handheld computer. The device features a global positioning system to help them locate the exact spots they have designated as places to take observations and measurements. Back in the classroom, ArcView will be used to map the data they have gathered, allowing students to build their own picture of their environment on screen. They will use maps to mix and match different types of information - the condition of buildings, traffic volumes, noise levels - looking for links, identifying blackspots and testing ideas for improvements. "This is geography in action - real-world stuff," says Adrian, who is director of the school's Centre for GIS, which offers training for teachers.
Other Bedford projects include a microclimate survey, tying in with the A-level urban topic, and an exercise to photograph and map hazards on footpaths.
At Lincoln Minster School, head of geography Lawrence Collins has been using GIS for a year and says it has opened up a new world for his students. "It helps Year 7 understand how to interpret a map as a three-dimensional landscape - a fundamental skill. On the interactive whiteboard we do some relief modelling, then gradually fade in an Ordnance Survey map. That really helps with contours, which children find especially difficult."
As coursework, his GCSE students compare suburban Lincoln with an inner-city area. They use the fading-in technique to prepare for their fieldwork, bringing together modern and historical maps with aerial photos to get a feel for how the areas have developed. "We are helping them visualise, rather than just assuming everyone has map skills," says Lawrence, who uses Digital Worlds software.
Some schools prefer to do their GIS on the web. Dr Ian Selmes, from Oakham School in Rutland, was one of the teachers who evaluated software for the RGS-IBG. He says: "Some of the software is amazing. But it is rather complex, and the difficulty for most teachers is finding the time to practise and then apply it in a way the pupils can use.
"The easy way to get started is to use internet services. We use websites like Streetmap, Multimap and Google Maps, which are straightforward. You can select your scale, identify particular types of information and compare the maps with satellite images or aerial photos. It may not be what a GIS professional would look for, but most teachers are not GIS professionals."
David Rayner teaches at The Grammar School for Girls Wilmington, in Kent, and agrees the web is a great place to start. "Students can use it at home, without specialised software, and get the basic idea of how they can combine and manipulate information."
David is founder of the GeoInteractive website, where he invites teachers to share their resources, and he has used several GIS packages. At his previous school, work included a Year 9 project to map local housing and employment patterns with the help of census data. He says: "It took a while to set up - this kind of project means shifting huge amounts of information - but once we could concentrate on analysing the material, we did some really good geography."
For teachers who have had difficulty finding data, the good news is that there are plans to create a one-stop source on the web, where schools can find and use what they need. Becta is working to encourage a range of organisations to co-operate in the scheme. Ordnance Survey has agreed to make its mapping data available, and a pilot begins this year.

Happiness and morale
Jenny Seddon, Partner of Paragon Interiors agreed: "Creating communal environments in your office where employees can mix and mingle helps increase both employee happiness and morale. Utilising sporting fixtures to enhance this has many benefits."
Friendship is one of the most powerful drivers in high-performance organisations. People make friends at work, they become a part of a team, and don't want to let their friends down. Having a space where people can build these strong relationships is critical to business success, for both relaxation and meetings.
Staff feeling that senior management is sincerely interested in employee well-being is the top driver of engagement globally across generations with obvious spin-offs for productivity and reducing absenteeism.
"Showing your employees that you care by allowing them to watch certain games at the office may seem trivial, but just wait and see the benefits," said Helyar.
Recreation space
Many companies design their offices without keeping in mind how they may like to use the space for non-work-related activities. "When we design offices for our clients we try to ensure, as far as possible, that we include a space like a canteen where there is a TV and various forms of seating that can be used for such occasions, or for staff briefings and events," said Seddon.
"We also try to ensure that this space opens up to an outdoor patio and that it is close to training areas or the boardroom, so that the whole area can be opened up for large events."
While building camaraderie and friendships among staff may be at the bottom of the list for some corporates, the business benefits are clear. Corporates that focus on building strong culture will always do better than those who just focus on profit.

Using the freshest ingredients and boldest flavors, our menu offers a range of quintessential Mexican food, along with culinary innovations we know guests will love. We are known best for our tableside preparations, including our made-to-order guacamole and flame-grilled fajitas, which arrive sizzling to the table.
Our standard is great, and we don't do anything without passion. Over 60 years, we've learned a lot about Mexican food, like how not to mess it up.
Ricardo was amazing !!! Give him a raise please , super nice man satisfied the whole party !!
They sat us right away. Service was great. Food came out fast and kids got delicious food and service. The family was very pleased!
The food was very good for the price. We had a good time celebrating with friends.
The food was DELICIOUS! it took a while to get our food but overall everything went well. Thank you !!!
Sunday buffet
Best brunch buffet!! They have so many choices of food and it's fresh and tasty. Our waitress Cindy was so nice and always attentive. She was always back at our table every 5 minutes filling up our mimosas and waters. Can't wait to go back soon!
I have not been to El Torito in ages. It needs a little touch up here and there since I am comparing it to when it first opened. Other than that the service was great and the food was also pretty good.
Enjoyed the time there. There were large groups for graduation celebrations, which elevated the noise level, but that is what to be expected.
Arrived a little early ... restaurant was empty ..still made to wait... food was mediocre at best... Montclair was SOO much better... too bad it closed... will not EVER eat here again... service was above average
Literally the worst Mexican food I have ever had.
Service was pretty bad but what do I expect it's practically Mexican fast food. Brunch buffet was empty more than half the time.
Great place for Sunday brunch. Good selection of food which included seafood, meat, different salads, etc. Service is very attentive.
What a great Brunch they have. Food was delicious and a huge variety!!
Excellent service. Attentive waitress, but allowed us to review business prior to the meal without interruption.
We had a lousy table table in an empty section surrounded by dirty tables. Server was lovely when present but not around much. Food was mediocre. I had low expectations going in and wasn't disappointed!
Excellent service and food. Met friends for Sunday Brunch and it was the perfect place to catch up and enjoy Sunday Brunch.
Sunday brunch - great selection of food. Food was delicious!!! Service was outstanding, very attentive. I would definitely come back again

I liked the article because I know and have been friends with a few exchange students. I appreciate the research put into this article for the purpose of teaching others about the process. The paper flows nicely and points out everything necessary to teach those a basis of the process, struggle, and joys of being an exchange student.

Jesse MacDonald KTT specialist at AAFC Summerland, in his family orchard with a Salish tree that died quickly last summer.
Growers across the Okanagan are seeing productive apple trees quickly die only a few weeks after showing signs of stress. The tree does not seem to have one particular cause for this mortality, and roots appear to be healthy. This "Sudden Apple Decline," or SAD, is affecting orchards across the Okanagan and has destroyed as much as 40 per cent of some blocks.
At the recent BC Tree Fruit Horticultural Symposium several experts spoke to this issue, including the role of fungal pathogens, or cankers, including Cytospora in SAD, and management methods and future research.
"This is not a new problem. Cytospora was first identified in 1818," says Dr. Danielle Hirkala, a pathologist formerly with the BC Tree Fruits Coop until a recent restructuring of the company. "Nor is it limited to any one area. I see it across the Okanagan."
"Things have changed so much in our growing practices," Hirkala notes. "In the past we simply cut off the fungal affected branch and left the rest of the healthy tree to grow. Now we are growing "branches" on root stock, at very high densities and these trees are essentially weak and easily compromised.
"We may have more virulent strains of pathogens, but also by moving from 800 to 2000 trees to the acre, we are giving it way more hosts," she adds.
Fungal pathogens are opportunistic, Hirkala stressed. The spores are active in the tree bark year-round and are able to infect the tree when it is weakened in any way. Wounds are the main source of infection, whether a leaf scar, a damaged bud, pruning or grafting wounds, but insect damage can also provide entry to the tree. The spores may be present in the tree for a number of years, but if it is affected by winter damage, or heat or drought stress during the summer, that may give the fungus an opportunity to infect the tree. An infected tree will show cankers, or splits in the bark. When the bark is pulled back, tissue damage is easily seen.
"You have to play the fine line with controlling vigour," says Hirkala, "This is a lack of vigour disease. The tree needs to be strong enough to fight back." It is important to flag trees that show signs of stress immediately and inspect them for damage.
"I encourage you to be proactive," says Hirkala. "If you see a tree with canker damage, take it out now. It may survive, but the chance to grow 30 more apples does not out-weigh the risk of the spores spreading through your whole block."
And while the tree may continue to survive, bullseye rot caused by canker spores on the apples could appear post-harvest and cause large amounts of product shrinkage. "It looks like you delivered bins of great fruit and then when you get your pack outs, you have 40 per cent culls due to rot," says Hirkala.
"These infected trees are going to have delayed bloom, delayed fruit maturity and reduced fruit size and are not going to produce the way they should." Hirkala says. The fungus remains alive in the bark of a dead tree up to six months, she adds. "Burn the dead tree if you can, or get it off your property."
The fungal problem can remain under the radar for a number of years, says Hirkala. "It's not like fire blight which is really obvious and can whip through your block very fast," she says. "This can exist in your trees for several years until the trees are no longer productive and then when you walk your block and really take a look at the trunks, it's not 10 per cent, it's more like 75-80 per cent."
Check your nursery trees carefully for canker signs, Hirkala advises. If the young trees are infected, don't plant them.
"Your nursery trees are a significant investment," Hirkala points out. If they are compromised from the start, the additional inputs over the years to a tree that may die, are simply a waste of money. "Take the time to paint the trunks of those young trees when they go in. That is the easiest time," she adds. Growers who raise their own trees need to be sure that the nursery area is not close to a block with fungus infected trees.
Be mindful of your pruning Hirkala adds. "It may not be practical to clean your tools between each tree, but go back and prune infected trees last after the rest of the orchard." Painting pruning wounds has been shown to help keep the fungus out, she adds. And be careful with summer pruning. Spores spread rapidly through moist warm air, so wait for dry weather.
"After a winter injury year, the next two years you will see more trees infected with canker," Hirkala says. "Water or heat stress, insect and rodent damage, anything that causes the tree stress will make it more prone to canker disease."
There are no fungicides registered in Canada for the control of cytospora on pome fruit Hirkala notes. However, products for apple scab or powdery mildew may also provide some preventative suppression of fungal cankers.
"The message I really want to send today is maintain your vigour. If you have healthy trees you are not going to have a problem," Hirkala says. "And remove all affected wood at the first sign of disease. Canker is much easier to manage with fewer resources when you catch it at the beginning, rather than trying to play catch up."
Is it Sudden Apple Decline?
Daniel O'Gorman, plant pathologist with AAFC Summerland, reviewed recent apple mortalities across the Okanagan at the BCTF Hort Forum. "We started to get calls from orchardists last summer who were very concerned. They were seeing trees in their blocks that were showing signs of stress and then two or three weeks later they were completely dead," says O'Gorman. "The rapid death was atypical of anything we have seen around the Okanagan and up to 40 per cent of the trees in some blocks were dying. This was a big deal. We went and visited orchards or had people send samples to us."
The leaves on the trees turned red or purplish, says O'Gorman. Most of the trees had cankers at the graft union and extending up the trunk. "You could see the reddish coloration indicating the canker and see fungal spore producing structures emerging through the bark," he says. "There was insect damage in most, but not all trees. If you dug up the roots they were healthy."
O'Gorman says similar problems have been identified in New York and Ontario orchards and given the label 'Sudden Apple Decline' or SAD. "They haven't identified a single cause of this problem. They suspect that it is multiple actors that are involved," he explains. "The symptoms Okanagan growers are seeing, the pests that are associated and the pathogens that are isolated are similar, but not identical, to those identified in the east."
Cornell University has looked at possible factors that are contributing to SAD and have listed fire blight, herbicide damage, boring insects, winter damage, drought stress, fungal pathogens and viruses, says O'Gorman. "In BC we have one sample positive with fire blight and herbicide damage has been identified," he says. "As far as boring insects, we do have a growing population of apple clear wing moth." Winter damage, drought stress and cytospora and other fungal pathogens are certainly present although they are a different group than those back east he adds.
Many cultivars are susceptible. Honeycrisp in particular, as well as Gala, Sunrise, Silken, Fuji, Aurora, Ambrosia and Macintosh. O'Gorman says they plan to investigate whether there is an apparent genetic factor. "Researchers back east say trees less than eight years old are the problem, but in the Okanagan we have nine and 10-year-old trees and some up to 18 years old," he says.
"We just took a quick look at this off the corner of our desks," says O'Gorman. "We didn't have a specific project. We tried to gather as much information as we could quickly, but obviously there are a lot of question marks here."

When...I too have the Corpse Bride & I love it. When Halloween comes around that is one that I pull out to watch along with the Nightmare before Christmas. This week I got a DVD (can't tell you yet), I believe my frying pan came this past week, and I just put up a review if you'd like to make a comment cuz I came up with this wild recipe just for the occasion. Yes, I made it up. I'm an experimental cook! hehehe I think I got more, but mama has a headache that won't quit. I think I need new glasses, but alas Dave isn't back to work yet :( hugs CMMarie Moodyhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com
