Golden Gate Park, San Francisco's wooded sanctuary, has been filled with entertaining oddities since it was created out of sand dunes during the 1870s. Twenty percent larger than New York City's oft-romanticized Central Park, GGP has world-class museums, bison, a carousel, lakes, and so much more.
Take a tour with us through the late 19th century, and up to the early 1960s for a peek behind the canopy of trees.
Golden Gate Park Conservatory, circa 1879
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp26.354.jpg
The Conservatory of Flowers opened the same year this photo was taken. It still stands today, and is the oldest structure in all of Golden Gate Park. It's also one of the few large Victorian greenhouses in the United States.
Music Concourse, circa 1885
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp26.365.jpg
This open air plaza is surrounded by the de Young Museum and the California Academy of Sciences. A cultural hub, you can listen to free concerts here on Sundays during the summer.
Conservatory of Flowers, circa 1890
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp27.0602.jpg
Here's an inside and sepia-toned look at the Conservatory of Flowers. Though it's hard to tell which room this photo was taken in, the Conservatory now holds a Lowlands and Highlands Gallery of potted plants.
Bison in the bison paddock, circa 1895
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp24.272a.jpg
Bison have been kept in the park since 1891, when a small herd was bought by the park commission. In 1894, Mayor Richard C. Blum purchased an additional herd for his wife as a gift — the bison left today are their descendents.
Fishing on Stow Lake, circa 1900
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp27.0003.jpg
In the middle of Stow Lake is an island named Strawberry Hill with an electrically pumped waterfall. While this young lady seems content fishing, she also had the choice of renting a rowboat or paddleboat.
The grizzly bear known as Monarch, 1911
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp27.1420.jpg
In retrospect, it's a tragic story for Monarch the grizzly bear, who would later become the official animal of the State of California. William Randolph Hearst commissioned newspaper reporter Allen Kelley to capture the last living wild grizzly bear. Kelley and a large staff discovered Monarch in the Ojai Valley in Southern California, and brought him to San Francisco for 22 years of captivity.
A couple in front of the legendary Gjøa ship, circa 1920
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp27.4185.jpg
This ship, which was curiously docked and put on display in Golden Gate Park, was the first to traverse the Northwest Passage. The three year journey began in Scandinavia, the ship then edged its way around the northern tip of North America, and finally travelled south along the western coast until it hit San Francisco. Led by Norwegian Roald Amundsen, the explorer agreed to donate the ship to San Francisco at the urging of the Norwegian-American community. It sat in Golden Gate Park on display until it was sent back to Norway in 1972 for restoration.
Group photo of Japanese sailors in the Japanese Tea Garden, circa 1930
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp28.1015.jpg
Pictured above is the oldest public Japanese tea garden in the United States. It was conceived of by Makoto Hagiwara, who wanted the temporary exhibit from the 1894 World's Fair transformed into a permanent park. He was the caretaker for the tea garden up until his death in 1925. He was the one to order the cherry blossom trees, koi fish and other native plants. After his death his daughter Takano Hagiwara became the caretaker of the gardens (she lived on the property with her children), but she and her family were taken to an internment camp during WWII due to anti-Japanese sentiments. They were not allowed back or reimbursed after the war ended. If you take a tour of the gardens, this story is told each and every time.
Boy Scouts inside of Kezar Stadium, 1940s
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp28.1450.jpg
The original Kezar Stadium, built in 1925, had a capacity of 59,000. Following the the earthquake of 1989, the stadium demolished and then rebuilt with only 9,044 seats.
Animal Farm at the Children's Playground, 1948
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp14.10081.jpg
Now known as the Koret Playground, this spot was formerly known as the Children's Playground. It was the first public children's playground in America, and offered a carousel, swings, indoor enclosures and a petting farm.
49ers vs. Giants in Kezar Stadium, 1956
Photo: OpenSFHistory / wnp14.2385.jpg
The original Kezar Stadium was the home of the San Francisco 49ers from 1946 to 1970, as well as the host for the Oakland Raiders for one season in 1960.

Some long over due spring cleaning will occur soon, and we'll brighten up some of the site.
This thread is specifically for input on one thing -- the leader small wars quote at the top of our home page. The page element is set up so that we can serve a rotating quote from a list of good ones; right now, it's a list of 1.
Please put forward suggestions here in this thread on other content for that box. Quote, image, or both. It needs to meet a few criteria:
- Be relevant and meaningful
- Be brief
- Address one of the broader, enduring, foundational issues of small wars, not an esoteric or situational element (there will be room for some of those elsewhere).
I will drop off this thread for a week or two, and then will scour it for stuff to implement when I come back up.

International Young Leadership Conference UAE 2015, most of you guys have been asking me how I found out about it and how and why I applied for it. So' guys I came across IYLC UAE 2015 on face book, I applied and got accepted.
The eight days of the 7th IYLC in 2015 were surely a turning point for me. And The IYLC has been my first international conference ever. Also, it was my first time to travel all alone
Basically it is arranged by the Civic Concepts International. The IYLC is a week-long experience aimed at achieving mutual understanding between participants from different parts of the world and the GCC region.
The main purpose of IYLC is to push participants who show potential to better themselves in various fields, particularly in politics and business. Moreover, to this it encourages a participants to have a role in the world, to show them how interconnected they can become. Each community faces their own issues but they do not have to face these alone. IYLC seeks to interconnect youth from around the world to gain a global perspective in order to overcome these challenges.
Attending International Young Leadership Conference ' UAE 2015 was an excellent opportunity to practice my skills as a delegate. Honestly I can say that International Young Leadership Conference UAE 2015 has changed my life in a very positive manner. After IYLC, I have became a person who has a great international conference experience. I made new friends, travelled places and had an eye-opening cultural experience and also, was professionally rewarding experience. Nonetheless attending a conference abroad is a huge challenge at this level. I was given the opportunity to test my leadership skills, strengthen my cultural awareness, deliver speeches, draft resolutions and make executive decisions.
I absolutely loved attendingInternational Young Leadership Conference UAE 2015. I had no idea there were so many people like me. The people who to go that conference tend to be highly spiritual, light worker types who just broadcast love, light, and peace. Basking in that energy for a few days totally raised my vibration.
I think it really helps to know there are other people out there with similar goals and interests as you. You can make new friends at a conference because you're already compatible in at least one major area of your life. Furthermore, becoming a speaker at a conference often gives you the opportunity to network with the other speakers. How would you like to have dinner with people you used to pay money to see?
Becoming a speaker at a conference is a great way to get to the inside track and make valuable connections as well as to get over your fear of speaking in public. Personally I think this conference was very well organised and very successful. I fully enjoyed the one-week event with so many interesting seminars and discussions on various legal topics. I would like to express my heart-felt thanks to people who have made this International Young Leadership Conference possible and those who have shared their experiences during that one exciting week in UAE. I have benefited very much from this fantastic event.
They have their websites, fb pages etc. Get connected to them in order to participate in a life changing experiences.
If you want me to help you out more with getting into it, email me for further inquires: firstname.lastname@example.com OR you can message me on my face book page: Zahra azam's blog.

Hello! Introduce yourself and tell us a little about yourself.
Hi Johnny, hi RAVERSAR! My name is Yuri, I am 20 years old and I'm from , Smolensk. Recently returned from the army and now I study in SPEK by profession Turner.
Tell, how did you come to the decision to make music and how she was enrolled in your life?
Well, like all normal people - lived, taught, and in 2007-2008-I was listening to club music and once I wanted to try to write something personal, something the club. Downloaded FL-Studio, installed and started exercising - after many unsuccessful attempts were nervous and I deleted the program, but after six months inner feelings overpowered me and I again downloaded this sequencer. Began to train and I still train.
Tell me, and when studying FL Studio did you use any lessons/tutorials?
No, unfortunately or fortunately, at the time of lessons on FL Studio was not practical, I myself tried to do everything yourself. First I have written the track was "Horror Street", which I wrote myself, without any hints and help, when I wrote under the pseudonym George Butler.
Well, what inspired you to write the music that is there now? You've got some style icons?
Don't know, I have many favorite musicians, but at the very beginning I listened and listened Dj Solovey and Fast Foot Project, at that time they were still at the peak of his career and gave not a bad example. And from overseas now idols: Far Too Loud, Figure, Wolfgang Gartner, FuntCase In General I very much want to create some very unique sound that is not like the others. But I am experimenting, trying to cheat their sounds and do not use the samples.
With whom would you want to write a joint collab?
I would like to record a track together with Wolfgang Gartner - I'm his biggest fan in 2008 the Course, over time it became «a long time already not the same», but still. I think we have something interesting would happen.
How's your ordinary day?
Yes, in principle, like any average Russian - morning coffee and everyday activities from Hiking to the store to writing music. And of course, in the middle of the day I have to study. And so we try to spend more time outside with friends, to breathe the air - the four walls of the house are crushed, inspiration is not enough, and so, after walking and fresh thoughts.
TOP 5 favorite tracks you?
Wolfgang Gartner - Undertaker (Original Mix)
Tiesto & Wolfgang Gartner feat Luciana – We Own The Night (Original Mix)
Jozhy K – Ladies Room (-W-Production Re-Trash)
Deadmau5 – Superliminal (Original Mix)
Excision ft. Far Too Loud – Destroid 8 Annihilate (Original Mix)
And as parents treat your passion?
Well as such specific support in the family I have. My parents believe in me, of course, but most believe it is childish to you that all this is not serious. Father refers neutral to my lessons, and my mom always says «you Again their «Tun Dong, boom boom» started?» Just as many who are of the older generation do not understand this music, they had their own fashion, but, as we have our own.
I know you served, tell us a little about the harsh Russian army. As she influenced you and your creativity?
The army is now long not the same, as for example, where I served my father or grandfather. Then she was really harsh. But mostly the army did not affect me and my creativity in any way, just made me more seriously and attitudes have also become more serious. In terms of creativity I changed my new nickname. With him, everything was different , both when opening a second breath.
What are your plans for the summer?
Unfortunately, there are no such plans. Now in my life the most important thing is school and work, well and my work of course. But if I suddenly get a chance, I will use it certainly! Well, in General, in the evening, in summer hanging out with friends on your wonderful city of Smolensk.
What do you wish our listeners and students RAVERSAR?
I want to wish prosperity to your and our label. I would like to hear more musicians with a variety of writing styles of music. And your listeners want to wish to stay with me and later I will try to please you more and more.

This is an important part of the initial steps you need to take before you get started on your business. Plan the expenses you will have for the first two years and play it safe by adding at least 10% to the overall number and plan on having that money on hand for when you get started. One of the main reasons why new businesses fail is they run out of money. The worst thing is to put all the time and money into your business only to close it before it starts to turn a profit. Obviously the more money the better off you will be. But, at least you should have what I suggest.
Unfortunately your predictions are not always reliable, largely because businesses need to make assumptions about the future and no one has a crystal ball. Also you are not sure if you are going to have sales in the first two years. That is why I recommend that you plan your expenses high. Do a lot of research before you start. And hire someone with the expertise to help you in your planning.
Most fashion start ups are self funded. There are other possibilities where you can find cash besides your savings. Person credit, family and friends, crowdfunding, a bank loan (difficult to obtain when you are new, they might ask you to put an asset like your house before they give you a loan), venture capitalists, and angel investors.
Whatever you choose remember a few things. You will have to pay back whatever you borrow. Investors will probably want a part of your company. Bank loans are sometimes too expensive to be worthwhile.
Maria Pesin knows fashion, especially the business side of the fashion industry. Do you know how Manolo Blahnik got his start in the industry? How he leveraged a paltry 3 grand into one of the world's most famous luxury brands? While she doesn't take credit for Manolo's success, Maria has walked a similar path on numerous occasions. The world of fashion is not silicon valley, and it has nothing to do with Madison Avenue marketing. In this industry there is ALWAYS room for something new and exciting, but you have to have your ducks in a row. If that's what you need, believe me, Maria is the General Patton of fashion ducks!

Last night I finished my Crazy Winter Socks using the fabulous Crazy Zauberbol.
Wish I hadn't listened to the sales lady when she warned me not to make a very long leg because the yardage on the ball wasn't very generous. I made a 4.5" leg and size 9 foot and have TONS of yarn left over.
I am considering picking up stitches from the leg and knitting them a bit longer, but it seems like so much *work* so maybe I'll just give up.
They feel great on though, despite looking like crazy winter anklets.
They sure do banish the winter blahs though!
Now, back to the brain…

LONDON (AFP) – The United States and Russia on Friday launched a round of 11th-hour diplomacy just two days before Crimea votes to secede from Ukraine in a referendum that has sparked the biggest East-West showdown since the Cold War.
US Secretary of State John Kerry met his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov in London a day after bloodshed returned to the streets of Ukraine with the stabbing death of a man in clashes between pro-Moscow and pro-Kiev supporters in the eastern city of Donetsk.
"This is a difficult situation we are in,†Lavrov told Kerry at the start of their meeting. "Many events have happened and a lot of time has been lost.â€
Ukraine remained a tinderbox as more than 8,000 Russian troops staged drills near its eastern border while NATO and US reconnaissance craft and fighters patrolled the skies of the ex-Soviet state's EU neighbours to the west.
Kerry has warned Russia that Washington and Europe could announce a "very serious†response as early as Monday if Moscow does not pull back the troops who seized control of Crimea days after the pro-Kremlin regime fell in Kiev last month.
"The first thing that Secretary Kerry will say is 'Will you use your influence to buy time and space for negotiations to take place?,†one US official said ahead of the Kerry-Lavrov talks.
Yet Russia has shown little willingness to negotiate and refuses to recognise the legitimacy of the Western-leaning team that has taken power in Kiev — a move that threatens to shatter President Vladimir Putin's dream of rebuilding a Soviet-type empire.
The diplomatic drama played out before a global audience at the United Nations on Thursday when Ukraine's new prime minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk turned to Moscow's UN representative Vitaly Churkin and asked him directly: "Do the Russians want war?â€
Churkin replied that Russia did not. But he also repeated Putin's argument that Yatsenyuk and his allies had conducted the "forceful overthrow†of Moscow-backed president Viktor Yanukovych that created a "government of victors†and not of Ukraine's democratic majority.
Deadly violence meanwhile returned to Ukraine for the first time since nearly 90 people were killed in a week of carnage before the fall of the pro-Kremlin regime as a pro-Kiev protester was stabbed to death in the mostly Russian-speaking city of Donetsk.
The local health service said a 22-year-old man was killed and 16 people were wounded in unrest that erupted when pro-Kiev demonstrators were attacked by pro-Moscow protesters.
Footage on Ukrainian television showed mass fistfights breaking out and clubs being wielded as a much smaller presence of helmeted riot police stood in the middle of the melee and seemed incapable of separating the crowds.
Ukraine's acting President Oleksandr Turchynov blamed the death on separatists "sent in†from Russia.
"These people and the Kremlin do not care about the lives of those they claim to be protecting,†Turchynov said in a statement.
– 'Very serious' response –
Sunday's vote gives residents of Crimea — a Russian-speaking region that has housed tsarist and Kremlin navies since the 18th century — only two choices: joining Russia or "the significant strengthening of their autonomy within Ukraineâ€.
The Black Sea peninsula's self-declared pro-Kremlin leader has already predicted an easy victory and the region is largely expected to vote in favour of joining Russia despite discontent from the Muslim Tatar minority that makes up 12 percent of Crimea's total population of two million.
Tatar community leader Mustafa Dzhemilev told AFP on Thursday that NATO should intervene in Crimea to avert a "massacre†of his people by the Russians.
But Washington and its European allies are far more likely to stiffen sanctions against top Russians should the Kremlin fail to scale down its military involvement in Crimea and open direct dialogue with Kiev.
"If there is no sign of any capacity to be able to move forward and resolve this issue, there will be a very serious series of steps on Monday in Europe and here with respect to the options that are available to us,†Kerry told lawmakers in Washington.
The prospect of imminent sanctions saw the Moscow stock exchange lose four percent of its value in afternoon trading. The ruble was also changing hands near historic lows despite the central bank's injection of $1.5 billion (one billion euros) into the market in an effort to prop up the flagging currency.
– Military buildup –
The European Union will debate travel bans and asset freezes on Monday against Russian officials held responsible for threatening Ukraine's territorial integrity.
The White House has been moving toward punitive measures faster than its European allies — whose financial and energy sectors are tightly intertwined with Russia's — and has already approved visa restrictions and financial penalties on Moscow officials.
But US President Barack Obama told Yatsenyuk after talks in the Oval Office that Washington was willing to move much further still if Putin failed to soften his stance immediately.
Ukraine on Thursday created a new National Guard of 60,000 volunteers to supplement a conventional army of 130,000 soldiers that is dwarfed by a 845,000-strong Russian force backed by nuclear arms.
Russia's tanks and artillery units are conducting exercises across three regions neighbouring Ukraine while 4,000 paratroopers are performing drills in the central region of Rostov.
But some analysts said it will be difficult for Putin to emerge the victor in his latest standoff with the West.
"In any scenario, the ultimate loser… will very likely be Putin,†said Holger Schmieding of Germany's Berenberg Bank.
"While he can get some short-term popularity boost now by annexing Crimea, his fragile petro-state cannot afford the costs of sanctions, let alone the costs of war.

For 2011, Dean Kamen has been chosen to receive the Lindbergh Award — for his dedication to the foundation's key mission of balancing technology with nature. Kamen is most famous as the inventor of the Segway motorized individual transport. But his personal focus has been on his work with FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology), which he established to promote technology. The annual FIRST Robotics competition draws teams from around the world to compete with their unique robots at several levels. Also honored this year by the Lindbergh Foundation are GE Aviation, winner of the Corporate Award for Balance; and author/explorer Milbry Polk, founder and director emeritus of WINGs WorldQuest, who takes the Ann Morrow Lindbergh Award. The honors will be presented at a gala celebration and dinner March 30, during this year's Sun 'N Fun International Fly-In and Expo in Lakeland, Florida.

These lovely cupcakes have been a long time brewing in my brain and I'm excited that I finally got to making them! I think they turned out well; the lime plays well off the cranberry, but they would have been better with more of both flavors. The buttercream frosting has reminded me once again that I do not like buttercreams! However, the sweetness of this frosting contrasted well with the little tart bite of the cranberry. I just think I will forever prefer cream cheese and whipped frostings…
Cosmo Cake
- ¼ c. butter
- 1 c. sugar
- 1 egg
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 1 ½ tsp. baking powder
- 1 ½ c. AP flour
- ¼ c. milk
- ¼ c. vodka
- ½ c. cranberry juice concentrate, thawed
- zest of 1 lime
The preparation follows what he occurred to me to be basic cupcake preparation (are you guys getting bored of the same old step-by-step pictures?): cream together the butter and sugar.
Add the egg and beat just until combined. Now, in a measuring cup combine the salt, baking powder, and flour. In a separate bowl, combine the liquids (milk, vodka, and cranberry juice concentrate). Alternate adding the flour and liquid mixtures (starting and ending with flour) until the batter is well-combined. Blend in the lime zest.
I really did not like the color of the batter; it looked…unappealing. So, I took out my handy gel colors and added a touch of red and a smidgen of pink to come up with a cosmo-worthy hue:
Fill lined cupcake tins (or greased with cooking spray) 3/4 of the way full. Bake at 375 degrees for 16 minutes (regular sized cupcakes) or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Triple-sec and Lime Buttercream Frosting
- ½ c. butter, softened
- 3 c. powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp. lime juice
- triple-sec to taste and consistency (I used about 4 tbsp.)
Cream the softened butter. Begin to add the powdered sugar little by little. Continue to mix sugar in until you've reached what you think to be a consistency just stiffer than you'd like. Add the lime and triple-sec. Adjust taste and consistency by adding more powdered sugar or triple-sec.
Pipe on to cupcakes and enjoy!
For a Cosmo Cupcake, I feel as if these needed more flair. Perhaps some candied pearl drops? Flaked silver or pink glitter? They taste great, but the aesthetics could use a boost :)

I have no idea where that phrase came from, "silence is golden." My guess, some guy pleading the 5th in front of a judge. Or, some guy caught cheating on his wife or girlfriend with the goods in his sweaty palms, (boobs) and pleads the fifth. Both, of which, seem like a logical explanation to me.
Anyhow, I've been kinda lying low this week, which isn't very hard for me to do considering I'm only five feet four inches tall.
Why you ask? Ok, I'll tell ya.
Politics. It's driving me nutso.
Used to be a time when you simply watched debates and went, "ho-hum." And when election day came simply went out and voted. In fact, you could even have a civil discussion involving politics with someone without being called an a**hole. Um, most of the time.
But, that said, which I just did, if you were paying attention, today's political climate is like being in Hell and attempting to explain to the devil why he needs to install a really good air conditioning system.
Not since LBJ was in office and there were uprisings protesting Vietnam many eons ago have I ever seen such vitriol. Um….wait, cept for that one time when I watched "Blazing Saddles" and Mongo sucker punched a horse.
Which, when ya think about it, is exactly what's happening today. But, at least this time it wasn't an innocent horse.
Example: https://youtu.be/DzU3FLZgIhc
Yep, a 78 year-old guy disagreed with a protester at a Trump rally in North Carolina so he took matters into his own senior citizen hands and sucker punched the guy. THEN……when asked by a reporter what else cold be done, "Well goleee gee whiz Festus, we may have to kill him."
Yep, if someone disagrees with your politics, kill the motherf**ker. Worse yet, cut off his balls on national TV. Now THERE'S a reality show I'd personally watch. Not on a full stomach of course.
Ya see where I'm going with this folks.
(thinking for a sec as to where I'm going with this)
Oh yeah, that you can't safely express your opposing opinions without someone, most likely a senior citizen, knocking your block off. Or, actually cutting your balls off. All in the name of politics of course. And if ya cut in front of a senior citizen when a store is handing out freebees.
Now where have I heard about this type of behavior before.
Hmmmm. (thinking)
OMFG!!!!!!!! I remember now. That one time famous historical political figure who won the hearts and minds of millions of people many years ago and became head of a country and really shaped things up.
Anyone remember Adolph Hitler? Nice guy, if you weren't Jewish or disagreed with him or his followers.
If ya did….boy were you f**ked.
Not that I'm insinuating that The Donald is anything like Adolph. After all, Donald doesn't have a stupid looking moustache like Hitler had. Although, ya gotta admit, he DID have silly looking hair like Donald. Cept it wasn't orange.
But hair and moustaches aside, Trump says a lot of things that all of us normal (cough) people may think at one time or another in our minds, BUT, never say because we're smart enough to know that if we do we'd be called racists, or anti-Semitic, or have our balls cut off.
BUT……this is where the problem lies. The Donald says things that appeal to a lot of people who, as I said, would not say them in public to anyone, lest THEY have their balls cut off, or get sucker punched, so they revel at the Donald saying them instead.
THEN……if anyone dares to disagree with them, or Donald, like that 78 year-old guy, spring into action by taking matters into their own hands. Adolph would be proud.
Hillary, Bernie, where are ya when we need sanity?
Let me see if I can put this into a better context for ya.
You know those comment sections you find at the end of articles on the Internet where anyone can voice an opinion. Did ya ever notice, for the most part, that when someone posts a comment with all kinds of misspellings, hatred, name calling, and the "F" word most of the time they sign their names "anonymous" or use a fake name.
Why? Because 1. They can. 2. They can remain anonymous. 3. In normal everyday life no one pays any attention to them because they're nut cases. 4. The Internet allows nutcases to come out from under their rocks………anonymously.
Now….yes now, they have a leader. The Donald.
You may disagree with my assessment of all this, but if ya think "I'M" a nut case, do some research on Adolph Hitlers rise and you will see the parallels. Minus, again, the orange hair, BUT, the really bad hair.
Hmmmm. Maybe that's the clue. Never trust anyone with really bad hair.
Do ya think that's the clue? Bad hair?
Well it's worth considering. However, as credible as that may sound, I'm still going with the appeal The Donald has to a lot of people.
That being, as I mentioned earlier, his platform. Which is, "F**k the establishment, f**k mainstream politics, f**k Hispanics, immigrants, Mexicans, African-Americans, Putin, Obamacare, ex wives, (he has 2) small whiny barking dogs, the media, the makers of Rogaine, (doesn't work for him) Iowans, (said they have corn on the brain) The Disabled, (mocked a disabled reporter) Asians, Muslims, 7th Day Adventists, (not to mention 8th and 9th day ones too) and finally, women.
Um, did I leave anyone out?
Oh….Italians. Um…..well he hasn't done that yet as far as I know, but, considering "I'M" Italian and he may read this blog, I may be next.
"OH YEAH! Well f**k off Donald, you damn panty waisted lemon mouthed orange haired loudmouth hate spewing idiot!!!!!"
Um…jussssst in case you don't say anything bad about Italians……..I'm soreeeeee.

pumps differ from traditional air conditioners in that they can both
heat and cool your home. Using an advanced refrigeration cycle, a heat
pump removes heat from the air and transfers it inside the house when
the thermostat calls for heat. It does the opposite and transfers heat
from inside the house to the air outside when the thermostat calls for
Heat pumps look very similar to traditional air conditioners and it can be difficult to identify which you have by looks alone. The easiest way to tell is to check and see if your thermostat has a separate emergency heat setting. If it does, you have a heat pump.
According to the government's energy website, heat pumps are most effective in climates with moderate heating and cooling needs. Better yet, high efficiency heat pumps dehumidify better than traditional air conditioners making your home more comfortable during the hot Arkansas summer. As for winter, heat pumps alone are effective sources of heat down to temperatures of around 30 degrees fahrenheit. At that point you would need a supplemental heat source such as an electric air handler or gas furnace.

The Saratoga Springs tulip caper has finally ended.
Socialite Michele Riggi posted on Facebook Tuesday that the two young women who allegedly had taken the flowers from the ground near her lamppost had returned them with an apology note and the Saratoga police officers had delivered them to her.
Their excuse for the deed was that they thought the flowers were pretty and wanted them for Mother's Day.
Riggi wasn't buying it.
"They stole them at 8:15 Mother's Day night!!!My children sent me my Mother's Day flowers the day before Mother's Day and brought them to me on Mother's Day I highly doubt they were going to see their mother at 8:30 Mother's Day night.Pathetic just pathetic!" she wrote on Facebook.
Riggi added that she was still seeking revenge against the duo, saying it was the last straw in a series of perfidious pilfering by Skidmore College students from her mansion, which she calls Palazzo Riggi.
"I'm not done with them yet they are totally going to have to pay for what they did one way or the other .. this time I'm fed up and they're going to have to answer to me!!!"
Riggi's reaction inspired someone to create gofundme page to raise $10 to replace the two flowers. Using the hashtag #RiggiStrong, the tongue-in-cheek fundraiser notes "Palazzo Riggi is barren without these two beautiful tulips, but you can help." The effort promises that any excess money would be donated to the Skidmore Scholarship Fund.
It's unclear what actions Riggi expects to take. It is also not clear why she suspects the flower thieves are from the nearby college.
She added that she was disappointed that the college did not do more in the aftermath of the stunning act.
"And it would've been really nice if the head of Skidmore reached out to me with an apology for this nonsense for their children at their highfalutin school to be doing this to residence on their street of the college!" she wrote.
Riggi, the director of the National Museum of Dance, enlisted her social media followers to help track down the sticky-fingered students.
That included a former star of the "Dog the Bounty Hunter" reality show.
Beth Chapman, who is the wife of Duane "Dog" Chapman, ran the Idaho license plate numbers for the car that allegedly fled the scene Sunday night and then publicly posted a link to Facebook page of the girl she believed was behind the brazen deed, writing, "let the shaming begin."
The girl's Facebook page has since been deleted.
Riggi refers to her stone mansion at 639 North Broadway as "The Palazzo," where she cares for what she calls her "posh pups" — about three dozen small dogs that share her home.

All the reasons Harry would actually make a top GG
Twitter is cross (of course it is) about the suggestion Palace officials considered sending Prince Harry to Australia to be Governor General, to diffuse the fabled "royal rift" and to stop attention to the True Future King and Queen leaching annoyingly towards the "rockstar" Sussexes.
But, despite the small detail that the Palace hasn't had the constitutional entitlement to pick the GG for decades, if we did have to endure another term of being indirect subjects to the people living in it then Harry would not be the worst man for the job.
There is plenty going for him as a candidate.
He is down with feminism
Sure we've had "quiet" activist (Dame) Quentin Bryce, with her penchant for fashion symbols in the colours of the Suffragettes, but, as we know, nothing much really changes for women until men decide something should change, so having a GG Harry-the-women's-rights fan couldn't be a bad thing.
Meghan Markle signalled in 2018 to a well-wisher that she was not the only feminist in Kensington Palace, her husband was one too. Harry confirmed it early this year during a visit to Tomorrow's Women, an NGO that supports vulnerable women with training, workshops and mental health programs, and initiatives to get them through domestic abuse and addiction.
"I'm a feminist," he told the women. Were he appointed GG, he may be the first one to have initiated a "group hug" with 15 women during one such event. The group's CEO, Angela Murphy, reported HRH Prince H confided to her his belief that: "It's really important that men are involved. It's true, you've got to be working together. There's no divide between men and women with regard to these issues."
He challenges 'tough' male leader stereotypes, discussing mental health
Harry has been happy to talk about his own, protracted mental health struggle after losing his mother, Princess Diana, when he was 12. He discusses the subject of mental health in a highly relatable and inclusive way (not speaking down to audiences, but participating in discussions about this vital community health issue).
He said in a 2017 interview that having "shut down all (his) emotions" after the death of Diana, he had experienced two years of "total chaos" in his late twenties as he attempted to come to grips with his loss, and found himself "on the verge of punching someone".
"I have probably been very close to a complete breakdown on numerous occasions when all sorts of grief and sort of lies and misconceptions and everything are coming to you from every angle," he told the London Telegraph. He discussed having seen a psychiatrist and that being "great".
"The experience I have had is that once you start talking about it, you realise that actually you're part of quite a big club.
"I can't encourage people enough to just have that conversation because you will be surprised firstly, how much support you get and secondly, how many people literally are longing for you to come out." He'd be setting a new benchmark for healthy, personal information sharing by a GG right there.
He is up with millennial life habits that may help save the planet
Especially since hooking up with health-conscious Meghan Markle, Harry is a known fan of a diet with less processed food, more plant-based food and, reportedly, little to no alcohol.
He has, according to reports, given up bacon and has also been snapped many times wearing a black Oura ring, a high tech gizmo that monitors REM sleep and calorie burn among other health indicators - so part of the generational change that would sweep through Yarralumla if the Sussexes did move in would be a high-profile emphasis on health and wellbeing from the top down.
His less uptight way of doing things, millennial style, generally would a blast of fresh air. When was the last time we saw our own head of state rolling around on the ground with little kids?
Former royal correspondent, Duncan Larcombe, who wrote Prince Harry, The Inside Story, describes Harry's style as so low on old-school artifice, he is "frighteningly honest."
"He really is the guy that most blokes would like to have a beer with and most women would like to have a beer with ..."
And ... it would be good for Australian fashion
Having the most Googled woman of 2018 living on our shores would no doubt boost the bottom line (and export earnings) for Australian fashion brands. The Duchess' every outfit was combed over forensically during her visit with Prince Harry last year, and more of the same global platforming of our many many excellent designers could only be a good thing.
Even after one, short visit, the impact of the Duchess being seen in Australian brands was reported by several to have helped a great deal.

What is Solar Power?
Just imagine a world, where everything starting from cars and ending with houses and industries are powered with help of solar energy. Sounds like a perfect place, isn't it? The air is 100% pure and energy costs totally nothing. You can forget about energy storage as they are a history already. Human beings finally made peace with the environment.
No matter how weird it may sound, but it is all possible. The solution lies in using clean, eco-friendly and, what's even harder to imagine, unlimited energy of our sun. Sunlight is a renewable energy source. Can you honestly say the same thing about something else? What else can people use over and over again without having to make some contributions to it? "Nothing", would be the answer. Not to mention that the sun's energy is completely free.
As you know, the sun is the key factor of why life on the earth exists at all. According to scientist, the sun should continue to shine for another 6.5 billion years. And don't forget, that it has been there for billions of years already bringing its solar energy for all the living creatures. Nevertheless, people have not been using the sun's full potential. They only learn how to do it today. There are so many ways of how to harness the solar power to its full potential. Let's discuss some of the ways.
Energy from the Sun
Such energy has to be harnessed with innovative technologies. This way it can be converted into something usable for the entire mankind. As of today, there are 2 types of sun technology which we can use to do this. They are passive and active. The active one oriented to trap the light from the sun. Then, do some actions by producing the current. For example, you have seen a lot of them by now: quality solar panels – an amazing way to save money on electricity and prevent global warming by using natural energy. Passive technology simply traps sun energy, for instance: GreenHouse.
Lately it caused a lot of interest, as a very high cost and limited supply of fossil fuels becomes more problematic in some countries. Many businesses and institutions are looking for better ways to harness the energy from the sun and make its use much more practical and effective. Nevertheless, sun power is in prevalent use in remote places with no access to the electricity grid.
There is a great number of ways of how we can use solar energy. Basically, it is up to us whether we want to help this planet and ourselves, or not. As you can see, home solar panel technologies are the best of all examples showing how human beings can benefit from sun energy.
As the world continues developing, there will be more new methods for us to use the sun without polluting the environment. It is fair to say that sun has limitless opportunities for us. We just need to figure out how to use it.
Now you have a great opportunity to learn more about solar energy and find out how you and your family can take advantage of it today. If you have any questions, suggestions or concerns, feel free to address it to Solar Panels Company will be happy to answer each of them. Our specialists know enough about sun – powered celled to provide you with a professional consultation.
Enjoy sunny days while our solar panels kit will brings heat to your home!

Click here for your free Asthma Factsheet.
The conventional treatment of asthma relies on a two-pronged approach. The first is to eliminate the 'triggers', which provoke asthma attacks in the first place. The second is to use powerful drugs to reduce the body's response to the trigger, and to attempt to increase the size of the patient's airways.
The doctor will focus on the upper respiratory tract, chest and skin, looking for signs (especially in children) that the thorax is hyperexpanding, and for any wheezing sounds during normal breathing, or when taking deep breaths. The doctor will also be looking for signs and symptoms of allergic rhinitis and rhinosinusitis. Diagnosing and treating these upper respiratory tract diseases is an essential part of managing asthma.
There are four major recognised symptoms: shortness of breath (especially with exertion and at night), wheezing (a whistling or hissing sound when exhaling), coughing (this is usually worse at night and early in the morning, and can also occur after exercise, and when exposed to cold, dry air) and tightness of the chest.
The medical profession diagnoses asthma in a variety of ways, but the process is usually based on repeated careful measurements of how efficiently the patient can force air out of the lungs, and on a thorough medical history and laboratory tests to find out what triggers the patient's acute attacks.
This is an instrument that measures the air taken into and out of the lungs (it measures air flow and air volume-how much and how quickly air can be expelled after a deep breath). The patient breathes into a device called a spirometer, which traces the rate at which the air leaves the lung. If there's something wrong with your airflow or your lungs, it will show up as a trace on the spirometer.
The amount of air you breathe out is measured as the 'forced vital capacity' (FVC), and the amount breathed out in one second is called the 'forced expiratory volume' in one second (FEV1). The ratio of FEV1 to FVC is used to find out how bad your airflow is. A lower-than-normal FEV1 is a sign that you may have a lung disease. A falling FEV1 suggests that the lung disease is getting worse.
The 'normal' values for FVC and FEV1 depend on a patient's age, gender, height and race. They are higher for younger than for older people, for tall than for short people, for men than for women and for whites than blacks or Asians. Therefore, the numbers are presented as percentages of the average expected in someone of the same age, height, gender and race. This is called the 'per cent of predicted'. Any number smaller than 85 per cent of predicted is considered abnormal.
Peak flow monitoring
This measures how the lungs are performing. The peak flow meter is a handheld device that measures how fast you breathe air out of your lungs. This is called your 'peak expiratory flow rate' (PEFR). If you can breathe out quickly and easily (a higher PEFR), your lungs are working well, and your asthma may not be bothering you. If you breathe out slowly and with difficulty (a lower PEFR), it can mean that your lungs are not working well. Your PEFRs are compared with charts that list normal values according to gender, race and height.
Chest X-rays
The doctor may also refer you to have a chest X-ray to rule out the possibility of your breathing problems being caused by something other than asthma.
However, a study has revealed that doctors are relying merely on chest radiographs to determine the severity of asthma, even though they have access to sophisticated equipment and techniques such as peak flow and spirometry measurements.
How severe your asthma is depends on the severity, frequency and duration of symptoms (such as coughing or breathlessness), the level of airflow obstruction and the extent to which the condition interferes with your daily life. Patients with more than two episodes of asthma symptoms per week, or with evidence of airflow obstruction between symptoms, have persistent asthma.
In very young children-less than two years old-asthma can be very difficult to diagnose with certainty. Wheezing at this stage often follows a viral infection and may later disappear without ever leading to asthma.
The medical profession treats asthma in two main ways:
Environmental control
Asthma symptoms can be activated by many agents. Generally, the severity of your asthma depends on how many agents activate your symptoms, and how sensitive your lungs are to them. People with asthma react to external irritants in a way that non-asthmatics don't. Many, but not all, asthmatics have allergies that cause their bodies to produce an abnormal array of chemicals in response to environmental allergens.
This is the mainstay of asthma treatment. Because patterns of asthma are different for different people, the specific type of drug treatment varies a lot, depending on the frequency, severity and particular triggers for each patient's episodes.
For people with mild asthma, medication may be needed only before exposure to triggers or when they detect the onset of an attack. Those with more frequent symptoms may take daily medicine as well as using it for specific symptoms. In the case of severe and persistent asthma, patients may be prescribed two or more doses of medicine each day.
Most asthmatics use two types of medication: a preventative inhaler, which includes steroids, and a bronchodilator, which provides temporary relief from asthma symptoms, but does not tackle the underlying inflammation.
An acute, or sudden, asthma attack is usually caused by an exposure to allergens or an upper respiratory tract infection. How severe the attack depends on how well your underlying asthma is being controlled (which reflects how well the airways inflammation is being controlled). An acute attack is potentially life-threatening because it may continue, despite your having used a quick-relief medication, such as an inhaled bronchodilator.
Prolonged asthma attacks that don't respond to bronchodilator treatment are classed as severe and you need to get to the doctor or a hospital. Severe asthma symptoms are persistent coughing, and being unable to speak in full sentences or walk without shortness of breath. Your chest may feel closed and your lips may have a bluish tint.
Drug treatment for asthma is given largely on a suck-it-and-see (or, more properly, an inhale-it-and-see) basis, ending up with the patient taking a medicine chest of potentially lethal drugs. The British Thoracic Society (BTS) has published new guidelines for following a 'step' approach, only graduating on to the next step in terms of potency of drugs if the step before hasn't helped. It also advises that, when control is established with one step, consider moving down to the step below.
'Step One' begins with short-acting inhaled beta2-agonists for patients who experience symptoms infrequently or with only mild exercise-induced asthma. These adrenoceptor stimulants cause the nervous system to act on adrenaline (epinephrine) receptors throughout the body. But unless the drugs are highly selective, aiming to stimulate only beta2-receptors (which relax bronchial muscles and reduce the chemicals causing inflammation), they can cause the heart to race and force it to produce larger quantities of blood, thus raising blood pressure. The selective beta2-agonist drugs are sold in the UK as salbutamol, or albuterol in the US, fenoterol and terbutaline.
If the doctor feels that inhaled beta2-agonists aren't doing the job, or you find you're using them more than three times a week, the doctor moves up to 'Step Two', which includes anti-inflammatories. Children are usually started on a six-to-eight week trial of sodium cromoglycate (Intal), three or four times a day. This drug, called a 'mast-cell stabiliser', works by preventing the mast cells lining the bronchial tubes from releasing chemicals, causing the bronchial muscles to contract. It is effective in preventing an attack from starting, but cannot treat an attack once it has begun.
Nevertheless, the medical profession, which is mostly at a loss as to how best to treat the condition, prescribes a wide range of aggressive drugs, including anti-inflammatories such as sodium cromoglycate or short-acting beta2-agonists such as salbutamol. Newer approaches for those who work out regularly include pretreatment with longer-acting beta2-agonists, such as salmeterol, or the regular use of inhaled corticosteroids. However, these have a range of adverse effects if used for the longer term and don't appear to be appropriate for EIA.
A similar, but more potent, drug is nedocromil sodium. Most adults (and children who haven't been helped by sodium cromoglycate) are placed on inhaled steroids, which are supposed to reduce the daily dose and, hence, the general risks of corticosteroids. These drugs include beclomethasone and budesonide.
'Step Three' employs the same steroids, but a more powerful inhaler. Dry-powder inhalers have cartridges that blast the powder when you breathe in, and utilise more drug than the usual pressurised aerosol cartridges. Another possibility is the use of a spacer, which offers a 'space' between the inhaler and the mouth to allow more time for the propellant chemical to evaporate before the drug reaches you. There are also nebulisers, which produce a spray, slowly releasing the drug into the bronchial tubes.
If this still doesn't control your asthma, or you have persistent symptoms at night despite all the other inhaled therapies, the BTS suggests that you move on to 'Step Four', increasing the daily dose of inhaled steroids and using an additional bronchodilator, such as theophylline or aminophylline, on top of the other medication. Theophylline belongs to a drug category called the xanthines, which includes caffeine. Theophylline works by relaxing the bronchial muscles and also breaking down a chemical that controls the muscles in the bronchial tubes.
Another possibility is to take oral beta2-agonists, which release more drug into the body, or a non-selective adrenoceptor stimulant like ipratropium bromide, which affects your heart as well as your bronchial muscles.
If all else fails, you are put on a course of oral steroids in addition to the other drugs in 'Step Four'. You might even be given a trial of cyclosporin, originally developed to prevent the body's rejection of organ transplants and now medicine's drug of the month, investigated for everything from psoriasis to arthritis.Back to How You Beat Asthma

Though I have worked in fired clay, wood, and papier-mâché, these days I usually work in papier-mâché pulp over an armature of foam rubber, paper, cardboard, and steel. I paint the sculpture with oil sticks, enamel paint, or encaustic paints. I often add other things to the sculpture such as feathers, leather, or beads.

Enyimba goalkeeper Ikechukwu Ezenwa says he is fit and will be in camp for the Cameroon 2019 African Cup of Nations qualifiers against Libya on October 13 and 16 despite concerns on the injury he picked up in his team's Aiteo Cup quarter-final loss to Kano Pillars on Sunday.
Ezenwa started in goal for the People's Elephant in the encounter, which ended 4-2 in favour of the Kano club, was taken off in the first half after suffering an injury to the face.
The former FC IfeanyiUbah shot stopper said after the match that he was alright.
"I will be fit to hit the camp. First of all I want to thank God that the injury wasn't that serious. It was just because of the heat and I couldn't see well but with the medical attention I got I think I have recovered well," Football Live quoted him as saying.
Enyimba spokesman Bariza Samuel confirmed the keeper was fit for the Eagles camp after he received comprehensive medical care from the team's medical staff.
He said, "He (Ezenwa) got injured in the first half but he is fine now. He was involved in a collision and couldn't see clearly so he was taken out. I spoke with him after the game and he said he was fine and ready to be in the Super Eagles camp today (Monday)."
Ezenwa is one of the three goalkeepers invited by head coach of the Super Eagles Gernot Rohr ahead of the double header against Libya. The others are Francis Uzoho (Elche, Spain) and Daniel Akpeyi (Chippa United, South Africa).

U of R opens newly renovated College Building
The College Building at the University of Regina has opened its doors again after renovations.
Dignitaries were at the College Avenue campus on Friday morning for the grand re-opening. The building was closed for two years for renovations.
The College Building is home to the Centre for Continuing Education and the Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy.
The design of the building aims to combine the historic elements of the building with new modern upgrades.
"We had to demolish parts of the College Building and we had to build additions," said U of R President Vianne Timmons. "We had to renovate every space, every mechanical, every bit of this building, we rewired. So, it was a massive multi-million dollar project."
The university is now moving on to renovations to Darke Hall.

The numbers are amazing. Sleepy Joe Biden, as Donald Trump calls him, is running away from the Democratic field in the race for the presidential nomination, according to various polls.
He has roughly double the support of the closest pursuer, Bernie Sanders. The others in the sprawling field of 20 or so are mostly in single digits, hopelessly out of Biden's range, this despite their town halls and media hype and spending binges.
And no, it's not just name recognition. Mr. Biden, who served as vice-president for eight years, had huge name recognition before he formally entered the race last month. Although considered the front-runner, his numbers then were much lower than what they are now.
The Democratic rank and file are sending the message that Joe's their guy. The pundits, myself included, were wrong again. Hardly any of us foresaw this Biden-boom. We thought that given his uninspiring centrist creed, his Hillary Clinton bygone-era feel, his gaffe-machine reputation, the waves of other exciting new faces in the race, Mr. Biden would stall, if not fall.
But his lead is such that it's now bringing on speculation, probably wrong again, that what promised to be a pulsating year-long nomination fight may be over before it's barely begun.
Striking is that none of the newcomers can catch fire against Mr. Biden or Mr. Sanders. Texan Beto O'Rourke, featured as a new Bobby Kennedy, was deemed a big prospect but has been slipping back. Pete Buttigieg, the young mayor of South Bend, Ind., has received fawning press notices but languishes way back in the polls. Despite her strong presence, Senator Kamala Harris is in single digits as well and is insulted at talk she might be a good running mate for Mr. Biden.
The big Biden numbers are not a result of flattering media coverage. He's had a lot of negatives from his 40 years in Washington dredged up and featured on front pages but they haven't hurt him.
He is benefiting from a number of factors. He's the one big-time moderate in the field. Others are on the left or flirting with that segment of the party. The signal from the polls is that a moderate is what the party wants, and that candidates have overestimated the desire among Democrats for radical change.
Mr. Biden is also benefiting from his close ties to Barack Obama. There's a deep reservoir of goodwill toward the former president, whose elegance and erudition stands in contrast to the Republican incumbent.
Former vice-presidents have a big advantage in seeking the nomination. Al Gore won it for the Democrats in 2000, following Walter Mondale in 1984. On the Republican side, George H. W. Bush won in 1988 and Richard Nixon in 1960.
But the biggest plus for Mr. Biden is his likeability. Democrats feel comfortable with him. A CNN poll last month showed that more than eight in 10 Democrats have a favourable view of Mr. Biden. That is an impressive number. It's important because it means there won't be much passion for putting stop-Biden movements into play. He fits the bill as the compromise candidate.
In hypothetical polls he does better pitted against Mr. Trump than the other contestants.
The big hesitation in getting overly excited about the Biden-boom is time. There's eight months until the primaries begin. Has he peaked too soon? Like eight months too soon! His numbers are currently so high that there is likely to be slippage. When they start to fall, the media, desirous of a competitive race, will only be too glad to start writing "Biden is fading" in the headlines.
Many a candidate has had a big early lead and hasn't made it. It happened to both Hillary Clinton and, on the Republican side, Rudy Giuliani in 2008.
In the Republican nomination battle in 2016, Jeb Bush came in with a ton of money and was deemed the big favourite but Mr. Trump labelled him "low-energy Jeb" and it stuck. Jeb Bush sunk like a stone.
House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy calls Joe Biden the "Jeb Bush of this cycle." But while Mr. Bush did have a drowsy look, the "sleepy Joe" tag won't stick with Mr. Biden, who for his 76 years, is rather bouncy.
Democrats don't appear to want anything new and radical. They want stability and good sense and normalcy. At the moment – emphasis on "moment" – they think that Joe Biden is their best hope for that.

One of my favorite parts of Christmas is being able to dress up for an annual party. Even more than the actual party itself I enjoyed the time I spent figuring out what I want to wear. Usually I go for a classic black dress which is always a good idea but this year I wanted to stretch my boundaries and try something different. I go through phases sometimes, sometimes I hate color and all I want to wear is black and grey and that is most of the time and I usually am against anything pink. I was just never a pink kind of girl but here I am in a pink dress and pink shoes. But I kind of love it.
My boyfriend and a friend both went with me to this party and we took some cute photos. Abby wore a cute lbd which would be perfect for both Christmas and the new year.
Christian matched me and my pretty in pink vibe. We looked perfect together. We had a great time at the party, we had great food, spent time with friends and danced. It was a great time and after it all we came back home to play pool and enjoy a more casual setting.
Christmas time is a great time to dress up and go to these kind of parties and enjoy your time with loved ones and close friends.
There were many other dresses I was considering and absolutely adored. I will link some of them below. I am hoping to get a new outfit for New Years. I'm very excited for this New Years because it will be my 21st birthday! I'll pick out a cute outfit to show off to you guys, don't worry, I already have something in mind.

Great World Cup win for France! Congratulations! I've been over here the whole time, and it seems to this futbol neophyte, that these games were extra special. Croatia, amazing team. England and Belgium, Russia's team…all great stories.

Slash Shares On Spotify His Favourite Horror Theme Songs!
You may not be getting new Guns N' Roses music anytime soon, but Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash has shared his favourite horror theme songs on Spotify. You can check it out here.
Listen to Slash's favorite horror movie theme songs on @Spotify! https://t.co/ORuL45FNJU #slashnews
— Slash (@Slash) July 13, 2018
According to Daily News, NBA player Brandon Jennings owns the same house that Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash used to live in. Jenning's neighbour Ivan Kuznetsov and his wife say their Jennings hosts large parties and blares music so loudly, they sometimes have to sleep in a subterranean room. Kuznetsov and his Wife talked about having Slash as a neighbour saying "never, ever, did we hear loud music from him." Slash and his girlfriend Meegan Hodges got matching tattoos back in 2015 that corresponded to an address in Woodland Hills, probably this home. According to the article
"That's the only place in the house where you can barely hear the music," Kuznetsov, who lives next door to the busy house in the 4600 block of Abargo Street, said this week.
The offending home in this ritzy Woodland Hills neighborhood happens to be owned and inhabited by the Milwaukee Bucks' guard Brandon Jennings. The basketball player could not be reached Friday for comment through his agent.
"Pretty much every week, there is a party" or loud music blaring from their neighbor's home, often at 2 or 3 a.m., Kuznetsov said.
It can feel like living next to a nightclub, he said.
While they asked their neighbors numerous times to turn down the music, "most of the time, they ignore us," Kuznetsov said. "We called the police several times."
LAPD Officer Sean Dinse of the Topanga Division confirmed he has received complaints about parties at Jennings' home at "unusual times." In the past few months, he said the department has received "over 20 radio calls" about loud music and parties there.
"The schedule of his partying seemed pretty consistent with basketball games," he said.
Dinse thought the problem had gone away, he said, but a few other neighbors approached him in recent days, asking for his help. Help, he vowed, is on the way.
In situations like these, Dinse said he can give the occupant a fair warning, but if that is ignored, he can direct officers to issue a civil citation for disturbing the peace, which comes with a fine, or move to prosecute in court.
Kuznetsov's wife, Jane, said she had to miss her job on multiple occasions because she was not able to sleep at night, which she called "devastating" to her career as an accountant.
Other neighbors in the area have also expressed their concerns via the Nextdoor social media site. Some say they would consider a civil lawsuit if the situation does not improve.
Dinse's message to Jennings?
"Work with your neighbors," he said. "Show some respect for your neighbors. They're tired of it."
And if not, the officer said, "we've got to go another path, another route."
In other words, the ball is now in Jennings' court.

Stalked: Monster Attack Network, De Fortabte sjæles ø, Ninja Assassin speed script
Disney are adapting the graphic novel Monster Attack Network while Universal are to remake De Fortabte sjæles ø with the original director and co-writer Nikolaj Arcel taking the helm, and finally there's interesting news that J. Michael Straczynski took a mere fifty three hours to write the Ninja Assassin script.
Does that say a lot for the film? Who knows. Interesting news that Arcel is the latest foreign director attracted over to Hollywood to remake his own film, is Hollywood starting to get it right?
Monster Attack Network is a story about a South Pacific island where a rescue team arrive to save the residents who are regularly attacked by giant monsters that keep emerging from the sea. The story from Variety sounds a bit unusual, but perhaps there's something in it. Anyone read the comic book?
Nikolaj Arcel is set to remake his own 2007 film De Fortabte sjæles ø as Island of Lost Souls in Hollywood. The original was co-written and directed by Arcel, and the Hollywood version is written by Jennifer O'Keiffe.
According to Variety the story is about a teen living in suburbia who finds herself playing a major role in an ancient battle between good and evil when her younger brother is possessed by the benevolent spirit of an eighteenth century magician.
Sounds interesting, and the film was one of the highest grossing films in Denmark last year. This marks another foreign director heading across to Hollywood and remaking his own film, or leaping on the Hollywood bandwagon.
Finally, AMCTV through Filmonic tell us that J. Michael Straczynski was asked to write the script for Ninja Assassin by the Wachowski's from their treatment. He said that there was a lot of work to do but managed to turn it around in fifty-three hours, that's incredible.
"About a month and a half ago I got a call from the Wachowski Brothers. I met with them and they had a draft for this movie called Ninja Assassin, which wasn't at all where they wanted it to be. And they said, "We need a whole new script, and we go to camera in six weeks." So I went home and put on a pot of coffee, and I wrote essentially a whole new script in 53 hours. When a friend calls you and says they're in trouble, you do what you have to."
A great quote, and a scary feat. Could you write a script in that amount of time? Well I guess it depends on how the film plays out.

* Important Announcement *22:14:00
For the past four years I've been writing Mary Bloomy and improving in all aspects from the theme to my writing and mainly my photography! I've invested a lot in my photography equipment to not ever feel like Blogger was portraying the amount of quality they actually had and with this always feeling unsatisfied about my posts and their photos.
With this, I've decided to migrate all my content and carry on Mary Bloomy on Wordpress instead as it seems to show the real quality pictures have when uploaded without changing that.
From now on you can find me on https://marybloomy.wordpress.com or my bloglovin' account that remains the same!
Thank you for all your continuous support!
Best Wishes,
