I am one of the people that had the knob issue with their Kontrol X1.
I wrote my initial request to NI for the repair of my X1 on Oct 27....long story short I still don't have it back. The sent me an email about 2 weeks ago that a new one would be shipped in 2 or 3 days. I emailed sales to see the status and got an email saying they are revamping. I called customer service several times and got disconnected by NI. This is driving me nuts! Is anyone else having this issue?
I am going to post this on the NI forum also but it seems to be down.

Who is Luminous Connections for?
Everyone, including babies and children, teenagers, adults, the elderly, from the living to those ready to cross over to the spirit world. Children love energy medicine work because they are still strongly connected to spirit and Source, cosmic energy and their minds are wide open to dream magic into being and manifest love, safety and security into their realities, especially if they've been born into an unsafe environment. The energy medicine and energetic balance can assist with focus, attention, and hyperactivity. Children are often these days diagnosed with ADHD, ADD etc., however, this is just the symptom of the child 'tuning out' so we target the root cause of the disconnection. See Kids section for children's energy medicine.

One solution is equity based compensation, which comes in many forms including stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. This causes no immediate cash impact, while providing an employee with ownership, an enhanced commitment to the company and an incentive to grow with the company while sharing in its success. However, the administrative and financial statement impact of issuing such equity based compensation is often overlooked. Stock options are contractual agreements which provide employees the ability to purchase stock at a fixed strike price through the expiration date. They may be exercised once they are vested, which can be based on the number of years of service or other performance-based milestones. Further, there are two types: incentive stock options ("ISO") and non-qualified stock options ("NSO"), each with advantages and disadvantages for the grantee from a tax perspective. Restricted stock entitles the employee to receive stock in the company once they achieve certain vesting conditions, such as years of service, product milestones or financial targets. When the restricted stock vests, it automatically converts to fully transferable shares of stock in the company. Stock appreciation rights ("SAR") provide an employee with the right to receive stock or cash based on an increase in value of the company's stock. It can also be based on the company achieving a triggering event, such as successfully raising capital, or a liquidation event. While equity based compensation provides companies with non-cash alternatives to rewarding their people, these options can be burdensome from an administration and recordkeeping perspective. A formal compensation plan should be established along with an agreement which outline the specifics of the equity based compensation awards. This typically requires the involvement of the company's legal counsel and the plan needs to be adopted by the board of directors. In conjunction with this, stock is allocated and, if needed, authorized for inclusion in the plan, which may require an amendment to the company's organization documents. Grantees should be provided copies of the plan agreement and fully executed documentation for the equity based compensation they received. Equity based compensation may add a further layer of complexity to the company's capitalization table and will require the maintenance of a detailed history of all stock awards granted, exercised and forfeited. Generally, equity based compensation will dilute existing shareholders' ownership percentages in the company, unless existing shareholders are holding a different class of stock with preferential treatment upon liquidation. A company will also be required to determine the fair market value of their stock, whether for the purpose of determining the strike price of an option or the compensation expense to be reflected in a U.S. GAAP financial statement. In a non-public environment this can prove difficult and costly, particularly if outside valuation experts are consulted. Valuation methodologies such as multiple benchmarking or discounted cash flows are acceptable. To determine the fair value of stock options the Black-Scholes pricing model is commonly used, requiring the following inputs: Exercise or Strike Price – Price at which the option owner can purchase the underlying security. Fair Value – The amount at which the underlying stock could be bought or sold in a transaction between willing parties, other than a forced liquidation sale." Expected Life – Expected period during which the holder is to perform service in exchange for the option, which is based on historical data. Volatility – Measure of the amount by which a price has fluctuated (historical) or is expected to fluctuate during a period (calculated value). Risk Free Rate of Return – Represents the opportunity cost of the investment. Forfeiture Rate – Estimated amount of equity instruments granted that are not expected to vest. The two most difficult inputs for non-public companies are determining the fair value and volatility of the stock. A commonly used approach to determine volatility is to find comparable publicly traded companies that are in a similar industry at a relatively comparable size and obtain the volatility of these benchmark companies' stock to use in the pricing model. Compensation expense, equal to the fair value of the equity based compensation, is generally recognized over the grantee's performance period. The recognition of equity based compensation will typically increase financial statement audit fees due to additional required procedures performed on the stock's fair value calculations, footnote disclosures, and review of the relevant agreements. Many C suite executives use equity based compensation to balance their capital resources and talent pool. However, there are related compliance and administrative considerations when making this choice. If used properly, equity based compensation can be a winning strategy leading to great economic success for the company in the present and future.

Do you plan to do a Coffee tour in Boquete? For many years, the coffee grown in the mountains of Chiriqui has obtained excellent international criticism and the price that some of these beans reach in foreign markets is amazing.
According to Manuel Barsallo, coffee specialist and founder of Coffeetologist.com, since 2004, Panamanian coffee has won several first places in international competitions such as SCAA Cupping Pavilion, Rainforest Alliance Cupping for Quality and Good Food Awards. Also, countless baristas have positioned themselves in the top 10 places of the World Barista Championship using Panamanian grains.
Meanwhile, in the country where these exquisite coffees are produced, the vast majority have only heard superficially about these issues, without paying much attention. At breakfast, it usually accompanies a regular cup of coffee, without going deeply into everything that Panama offers in coffee growing.
This is changing little by little, thanks to new local coffee shops focused on providing higher quality products and showing the special varieties grown in Panama.
In addition, several coffee plantations have opened their doors to tourism to show what is behind coffee growing, explaining the whole process of cultivation, coffee harvesting, classification and roasting, as well as the functioning of international markets and the demand that exists for coffee. the Panamanian beans.
Every Panamanian has heard about the famous Geisha coffee, but probably do not know that it sells for 50 USD a half pound in Amazon, for example. Every visit to a farm begins usually culminates with a coffee tasting, in which you learn to evaluate the color, aromas and flavors of different varieties.
How to get to Boquete?
To get to Boquete from Panama City, the first step involves traveling to David, the capital of the province of Chiriqui. The fastest option is to fly, with the airline Air Panama offering service from Albrook airport (PAC) and Copa company from Tocumen airport (PTY). These flights take around 45 minutes. The cheapest option is to travel by bus, departing from the Albrook bus terminal, with the companies Terminales David Panamá S.A.
Activities in Boquete
The Río Cristal coffee plantation is part of the Tree Trek tourist complex in Boquete. This hotel and its property are located at the top of Boquete, at an altitude of 1,700 m. Its climate is ideal for growing coffee.
After arriving at the farm, a guide will take you through the plantation and explain the different varieties of coffee. You will learn how the grain, fruit and flowers develop in different flavors. You will know the ways in which roasting and processing affect the final taste and most importantly, you will learn to recognize good coffee! You can try up to eight varieties of coffee before choosing a type to enjoy it.
Finca Lérida and the aroma of Panamanian coffee Located in the district of Boquete, north of the province of Chiriquí, west of Panama, is Finca Lérida. Here we got to know in detail everything related to the cultivation of Panamanian coffee, in addition to trying one of the most coveted coffees in the world.
Although it seems that Finca Lérida has nothing to do with the Panama Canal, it is just the opposite. Let's know their history a little!
Finca Lérida is also a boutique hotel where you can enjoy, as Mönniche once did, a few days of relaxation with a unique experience. In addition, the most logical is the coffee tour, Finca Lleida we can also take a tour with a guide specialized in bird watching and even discover the fauna and flora thanks to the different routes and trails that can be done in the zone.
The best coffee in Panama
The coffee bean of Panama, has one of the best qualities, which continues to improve year after year.
Geisha Coffee is one of the most exclusive varieties among coffee lovers worldwide. Its harvest is made from the highest lands of the province of Chiriqui, Panama.
Recently, an international tasting was held «The Best of Panama«, in which the award-winning grain was cultivated at 1,800 meters above sea level and won the best score of the competition, where three of the 17 judges Internationals gave him 97 points.
Today, Panama holds the world record for the pound of geisha coffee in Boquete, and produces some of the most sought after high altitude coffee in the world.

"If you could take all the love without giving any back, would you do it?"
The recent announcement by a group of nearly 200 CEOs, who convened to collectively agree about being more mindful about doing what's right for the company and not necessarily doing everything simply to "maximize shareholder value" was a long time coming. I have seen this kind of shortsighted approach more or less decimate businesses first hand.
This news also got me thinking again about something that has, frankly been brewing it my gut for several years. And where I am about to go is admittedly perhaps triggered by a heightened mortality awareness as many of my youth heroes have -- borrowing the words of Richard Thompson -- "withered and died."
Connecting some dots: as a big-time music fan who has a tendency to "go deep" on artists, I appreciate good archival releases and there have been some great reissue series in recent years by big name artists including The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen and many others. That is all fine and good and mostly very, very cool.
However I have also noticed a trend of a sort when it comes to non-superstar acts. This is not a recent thing, but something that has been going on for a long, long time, a practice where record labels ride the coattails of a less successful artist's passing. During their lifetime after a period of initial success, many artists are left to their own devices to keep their star shining brightly. In most cases, that does not happen unless they happen to get some good management direction or someone invests in the artist.
Or sometimes the artist simply finds the spunk to reinvent and self market themselves. Some do this successfully. Some give up and do other things. Teen Idol Bobby Sherman spent much of his adult life away from entertainment as a Paramedic and even a Police officer! But, many a once-famous-and-still-revered artist ends up wallowing in obscurity until they die. And, then... suddenly... as if Harry Potter waved his magic wand, back catalog albums and deep archive studies are released to the universe. But only after the artist has left this mortal coil.
It's a practice that is arguably one step removed from ambulance chasing.
So taking that mindful concept of "doing what is right" for the long term good of art, perhaps it is time for entertainment companies of all sizes to start stepping up more proactively to support its back catalog artists as well as those young new artists coming up in the ranks today. Perhaps it is time for labels to once again "investment spend" in artists who were on their roster in the past while they are still-living. There are some entities doing this, but not nearly enough (more on that next week).
There is a wonderful tragic-comic scene in the 1975 film Monty Python & The Holy Grail where local town authorities in the time of King Arthur are gathering up bodies of people who had died from Plague. One man brings out an old codger who is still alive proclaiming "I'm not quite dead yet" as the officials discuss what to do with this person who is clearly no longer wanted. It's a funny scene in the film but it also gives one pause outside of that context when you think about the struggling artist.
Despite what the industry might think, many musicians and artists from the past are indeed not quite dead yet!!
Many artists even of relatively recent vintage still have a legacy and a following but they may have been caught up in bad contractual deals from the past. Why can't "the industry" proactively reach out to help these artists -- who probably can't afford a good lawyer -- out of their virtual jail cell? These are artists who have continued to nurture their followings via social media even while not touring extensively. Its called "direct marketing" folks...
I just can't help but wonder why it has to be this way to begin with? Business. Economics. Limited budgets. "Who's gonna pay for this?"
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get it: "That's just the way it is, kid"... I hear you.
But that doesn't mean it is right.
And that won't squash my idealistic dream for something bigger and better...
Next installment next week...

A Great start… Could use some tweeks,
I received my Disruptor today, and there's a lot to be said for it, and a few things that could have been done better.
First and foremost… Finally an affordable 1/1 scale replica of the props! I've been waiting forever for just such a thing. I've had an unfinished copy (of a copy, of a copy?) for years, but due to molding issues (bubbles/shrinkage mostly) I wasn't able to finish it into something that I'd be proud to holster next to my D'k tagh. This prop/toy has clean molds, and doesn't suffer from replication errors. The colors look good, and it feels good in the hand (Klingons are right handed). The fine details are sharp and clear. The only real visual "tells" that this is a "Toy" and not a prop is the visible pins on the inside of the beak, the red LED (should be green (remember when the Klingons kill the changeling Martok?)), the hollow area near the selector switch (should be filled), the "grill" that hides the speaker on the left side (pointed away from you), and the manufacturer data printed on the right hand side of the grip (near the main body).
A really nice touch is that the holes for the screws used to hold it together are mostly hidden with plugs that have appropriate texture for the area (all located on the right hand side). These plugs do a lot to hide the screws, but on my copy they are not all perfectly aligned. Seams are present, but very tight, except under the targeting housing (the part that slides off to reveal the battery bay). Here you can see light under the targeting housing if the angle was just right (or wrong depending on how you look at things). There are minor sinkholes just ahead of the targeting housing from where the cooling plastic shrank after the injecting process was finished (plastic modelers will know what I'm talking about).
Ok onto the stuff that I don't care for. First is the selector switch. Looks awesome, sound's horrible. If I were lying in wait to ambush an enemy, I don't need the clashing electronic sound to give away my position (reminiscent of that clashing sound from the playmates toy D'k Tagh). The sounds are loud, but clearly electronic, and don't sound like the effects heard in the show (listen to the sounds then compare them to the sounds of the changeling Martok being blown away), and lack the one sound I'd really want to have… Continuous fire. It has a several sounds, including a pulsing continuous fire, but not a steady (cutting beam) sound. The alignment of the beak on my copy was twisted counterclockwise a few (but very noticeable) degrees, and the alignment is pointed to the left of mid-line. I'm able to manually twist it into position (and it pops (audibly, and physically) when it's in the correct alignment), but it will pop back to the old location/rotation once let go. The screw that holds the battery compartment plate down is very visible (could have been painted black or brown)
Would I buy it again? Sure, I'd like a couple of copies of both the ST:III and the Beaked disruptor (as well as the long version that formed the basis of the painstick). However, once I got my second copy of each, I'd start modifying them.
I'd start by drilling out the screw's plugs, then disassembling the weapon. I'd install a small switch next to the selector switch to turn on or off the sounds. I'd remove the red LED and install either a green one, or (more desirably) install a green pointing laser in its place. I'd fill much of the hollow areas with resin to add "heft". My big thing would be to make sure that the rods that hold the emitter off of the main body were aligned in the correct position, but make it possible to remove them (if it were to fall and get damaged, I want to be able to swap them out). I'd sand off the sound grill from the left hand side, as well as the matching detail on the right, then replace them with evergreen plastic (from my polyurethane copies, it's clear that this is what the original property master used to add detail to the weapon). I might consider using rare earth magnets to hold the weapon together rather than glue or screws, that way I can disassemble it as desired w/o having to drill out the screws concealment each time. After reassembling it, I'd fill the screws holes with a suitable filler material (epoxy?), then sand and repaint to conceal the alterations. I'd also sand off the manufacturer's info, and possibly install the Klingon insignia pin or Klingon Death's Head pins seen in some of the copies I've looked at. Another modification would be to create the disruptor rifle used in TNG/DS9, but as a beaked version rather than the ST:III version (It's my toy, I'll play with it my way).
The nice thing about installing a pointing laser (again, green, not red), is that it clearly shows where the "hit" was made, and would allow an animator to create a convincing blast (none of that "I aimed for the head, and hit him in the shin" kind…

WHITBY, Ont. - Police say two young Toronto-area men found themselves caught in an extortion trap after exposing themselves online.
Durham region police say a 21-year-old Whitby man was convinced by a woman he'd just met in an online chat room to take off his clothes and fondle himself on a webcam.
Moments later, the woman — who turned out to be a man — sent the victim a recording of his actions and threatened to post the graphic video unless a payment of 500 euros (C$690) was made.
The amount was paid, but when the young man received demands for even more money, he called police.
Investigators say an 18-year-old Clarington man had an identical experience on the same chat room site on Sunday, but no money was paid after a parent got involved and called police.
Police say an investigation is underway and no arrests have been made, but they're warning people they could risk their financial well-being by engaging in risky online behaviour.

The 41st president of the United States, George H.W. Bush, reminisced last Thursday about what he considered the biggest successes of his presidency: morality, legislation and a strong military.
President Neil L. Rudenstine introduced the annual Albert H. Gordon '23 Lecture on Finance and Public Policy with a dig at Bush's alma matter, Yale.
As the former president waited his turn, necktie emblazoned with Eli blue and white, Rudenstine said Bush was headed to "another institution, somewhere in the south" later in the day for his 50th reunion.
Alan K. Simpson, director of the Institute of Politics (IOP), gave a second introduction, describing Bush as a "force of good in this land."
Bush seemed pleasantly surprised by the large turnout, which packed the ARCO Forum.
"I thought this was a passing thing," Bush said, "but people are hanging out of the rafters."
Among those in attendance were Gordon, a former Crimson editor, who is attending his 75th reunion this week; former first lady Barbara Bush; CEO of the Atlantic Richfield Company (ARCO) Mike Bowlin, and Governor of Massachusetts, A. Paul Cellucci.
Bush noted the prominence of those in attendance and joked about his own status.
"I am having an identity crisis lately," Bush said. "I am now father of the Governor of Texas or husband to the most popular woman in the country. I used to be the President of the United States."
Despite his "crisis," Bush reflected warmly on his tenure as president. "I was blessed, and our nation was blessed," Bush said.
"During my four years a lot of good things happened, though I admit we made some mistakes," he said.
"We solved the Savings and Loan crisis, cleaned up the environment, created more opportunities for 37 million Americans with disabilities and passed a budget agreement," Bush said.
Bush chose not to elaborate on his "mistakes," but he did touch on the problems and scandals of the Clinton administration.
"It is an unseemly spectacle," Bush said, referring to the "rancor" which the accusations of sexual improprieties by President Clinton have created.
"[The scandal] is unbecoming for the sole remaining superpower," Bush said.
Bush said he didn't want to see such a scandal turn "good people" into cynics.
"I believe public service is a noble calling, and good people must get involved,' he said.
Bush began to criticize the "intrusive nature of the national press" as partly responsible for the "rancor" on Washington, but he cut himself short, saying he was advised that bashing the press is "beneath him."
"As Dana Carvey says," Bush said, waving his index finger and exaggerating his own inflections, "Not gonna do it, wouldn't be prudent."
Bush also addressed the current state of the U.S. military in light of the end of the Cold War.
"The enemy is unpredictability, instability, international terrorism, narcotics traffic and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction," Bush said.
"We must not let down our guard, and we can't be a moral force unless our armed forces are credible," he said.
The recent nuclear tests in India and Pakistan also drew comments from Bush. "We can't sit back," he said, suggesting that both diplomatic negotiations and sanctions as options.
"We need to talk sense to India and Pakistan and have it stop," Bush said.
According to Bush, China's reaction is also crucial to resolving the tensions in the Asian sub-continent.
In other military matters, Bush was critical of Clinton's legacy, calling his policy toward the Middle East, "not even-handed."
Bush described his own actions in the Middle East as one of his greatest accomplishments during his term.
"History will look to Desert Storm," Bush said. "We did it with honor. We upheld the integrity of the White House."

Will winter rain lead to another wildflower superbloom on Carrizo Plain?
Here's the latest on wildflowers in SLO County and throughout California »» Where to see California's wildflower super blooms — from SLO County to San Diego
After heavy winter rain, San Luis Obispo County's hills are beginning to burst with color — but what about the area's wildflowers?
Experts said it's too early to tell whether there's potential for a superbloom, which painted the Carrizo Plain National Monument vivid shades of gold and purple in 2017. The bountiful native flowers created such a spectacle they could even been seen from space.
"It should be a good bloom out there," said David Keil, a Cal Poly emeritus botany professor. "I'm not sure whether it'll be a superbloom or not."
Two years ago, San Luis Obispo County had its rainiest January in 20 years, following a five-year drought.
Although it's unclear which conditions lead to a wildflower superbloom, there are some factors that may help, Keil said.
In the case of the 2017 superbloom, winter rain began falling in the area in December 2016 and continued into early 2017, which gave some wildflower species a boost, he said.
Due to the drought, there also wasn't much grass, so the flowers weren't choked out, Keil said.
"The entire Carrizo Plain was just bursting with flowers," he said.
In 2018, little rain fell until the spring, when the county had a "Minor Miracle March." That meant the wildflower display wasn't very exciting, especially in comparison to the previous year's bloom.
The temperature will also play a role. Cold weather could slow growth, and hot weather might roast the plants, Keil said.
Some species of flowers only make an appearance in San Luis Obispo County if the area gets a solid amount of precipitation in November and December, said David Chipping, president of Friends of the Carrizo Plain, a nonprofit that supports conservation efforts in the area.
Chipping and Keil said the first wildflowers will likely begin to show up on the Carrizo Plain in March and continue blooming into April.
"It has good enough rain that it might be a good bloom," Chipping said. "We certainly would not promise anything."

In a significant verdict, the Supreme Court today held that a member of an SC/ST community from one state cannot claim the benefit of reservation in government jobs or admission in another state, if his or her caste is not notified there. A five-judge constitution bench headed by Justice Ranjan Gogoi also held that in Delhi, the central reservation policy applicable in jobs of the central government regarding Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST), would be applicable.
It unanimously held that a person belonging to SCs or STs in one state cannot be deemed to be a SC or ST in other states where he has migrated for the purpose of employment or education, saying that such persons would be eating away the quota meant for the native SCs or STs.
The verdict came on as many as eight petitions that had raised the issue whether an SC/ST community member in one state can seek reservation in another state where his caste is not notified as SC/ST. The bench was also seized of the question whether SC/ST people of another state can seek quota benefits for government jobs in Delhi.
The bench, which also comprised Justices N V Ramana, R Banumathi, M M Shantanagoudar and Justice S A Nazeer, said the scheduled castes and scheduled tribes specified in relation to a state or a union territory does not necessarily carry the same status in another state or union territory.
"A person notified as Scheduled Caste in state A cannot claim the same status in another state on the basis that he is declared as Scheduled Caste in state A," it said.
The bench said the consideration for specifying a particular caste or tribe or class for inclusion in the list of SCs, STs or Backward Classes in any state depends on the nature and extent of the disadvantages and social hardships suffered by the concerned members of the class in that state.
"These may be absent in another State to which the persons belonging to some other State may migrate," the bench said.
The top court accorded primacy to the list of SC/ST castes prepared by the President and said nobody, including the Court, can order addition or deletion of any caste into that list.
"The upshot of the discussion would lead us to the conclusion that the presidential orders issued under Article 341 in regard to scheduled castes and under Article 342 in regard to scheduled tribes cannot be varied or altered by any authority including the court," it said. The court also gave another perspective to the issue and said, "If a member of a scheduled caste/ scheduled tribe of Andhra Pradesh who had migrated to Maharashtra is to be given the benefit of reservation, it will amount to depriving a member of a Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribe of Maharashtra by reducing the reservation earmarked for them."
The bench with a majority of 4:1 held that so far as Delhi is concerned, the central reservation policy, applicable in jobs of the central government regarding SC/ST, would be applicable here also.
Justice Banumathi, however, disagreed with the majority view on this aspect of applicability of central reservation policy on SC/ST in national capital territory of Delhi. She said the services under the Union Territories, though these are central government services, were those under the respective Union Territories and not under the direct control of Union of India.

These Poor Hands : The Autobiography of a Miner Working in South Wales Paperback / softback
by B. L. Coombes
"These Poor Hands: The Autobiography of a Miner Working in South Wales", was first published in June 1939.
It was an instant bestseller, and its fame catapulted its author into the front rank of 'proletarian writers'.
B. L. Coombes, an English-born migrant, had lived in the Vale of Neath since before the First World War, but only turned to writing in the 1930s as a way of communicating the plight of the miners and their communities to the wider world. "These Poor Hands" presents, in a documentary style, the working life of the miner as well as the author's experiences in the lock-outs of 1921 and 1926.
It demonstrates Coombes' desire to offer an accurate account of the lives of miners and their families, and carries a sincere moral charge in its description of the waste of human potential that is industrial capitalism in decline.
Long out of print, "These Poor Hands" has been recognised for over sixty years as the classic miner's autobiography.

The Age of Austerity: How Scarcity Will Remake American Politics
One among our such a lot prescient political observers offers a sobering account of ways pitched battles over scarce assets will more and more outline American politics within the coming years—and how we would stay away from, or not less than mitigate, the wear and tear from those ideological and financial battles.
In an issue of simply 3 years, a sour fight over constrained assets has enveloped political discourse at each point within the usa. Fights among haves and have-nots over wellbeing and fitness care, unemployment advantages, investment for loan write-downs, fiscal stimulus legislation—and, on the neighborhood point, over cuts in police security, rubbish assortment, and within the variety of teachers—have ruled the controversy. Elected officers are being pressured to make zero-sum choices—or worse, offerings with out winners.
Resource pageant among Democrats and Republicans has left both sides made up our minds to guard what it has on the price of the opposite. the main problems with the following couple of years—long-term deficit relief; entitlement reform, particularly of Social protection, Medicare, and Medicaid; significant cuts in safeguard spending; and hassle in financing a continuation of yank foreign involvement—suggest that your-gain-is-my-loss politics will necessarily accentuate.

Ed. 24 FROM T H E THEATRE OF WAR Yesterday we already presented an extract from the last (26th) Army Bulletin published in the Vienna Lithographierte Correspondent? Today we have the complete text of the Bulletin before us. b However hard Windischgräcz endeavours to give the action at Kapolna the character of a major battle, however violently he flings about bayonet-charges, cavalry attacks and bombardments—he is soundly defeated in his aim by the figures he himself gives of the dead and captured.
On the same day that the Vienna Government distributed in Vienna the news of Windischgrätz' alleged victory, it stopped all letters and newspapers from Pest at the post-office. Probably in joy at the mighty victory of the armed forces of the fatherland. The Kölnische Zeitung must have read this news, as we did, in at least half a dozen East-German newspapers. But in order not to disturb the joy of its readers at the victory of "German arms", it does the same as the Austrian Government and withholds this piece of news.
Moreover, the Siebenbürger Bote is awaiting the following royal imperial reinforcements: "According to reports received the corps heading for Transylvania under generals Gläser, Todorovich and Mengen is said to comprise the following troops: 8 battalions of infantry, Leiningen, Rukavina, men from Peterwardein, Romanians, Illyrians, and German-Banat Borderers; 5 squadrons of Uhlans, 300 mounted Serbs, 80 Serezhans; one Congreve battery, one mounted foot-battery, two ordinary footbatteries, 5 Serbian cannon.

When I'm on vacation, especially at the beach, I like to go for a much more natural look, and most of the time skip makeup all together. Who has time to put on a full face of makeup only to have it melt off in the sun or wash off and smudge the second you get in the water? I like to be able to throw on a little bit of mascara and a tinted moisturizer with SPF and call it a day!
Because I like to keep my vacay makeup routine as fuss free as possible, I always try to be extremely intentional about skincare in the months leading up to my vacation in order keep my skin looking amazing, makeup or no makeup!
While I do get the occasional break out here or there, the main thing I struggle with when it comes to my skin is clogged pores, especially around my nose. When I started going into full on "get vacation ready" mode with my skin care routine, the main thing that I was looking to add was something to help me detox and purify my pores, since that's always been my biggest problem area! I also have combination skin, so while some areas get super dry, my forehead and nose area tend to be more on the oily side, and start to look pretty shiny after I've had my makeup on for a couple of hours. When I found Bioré's Blue Agave + Baking Soda line, I knew it would be perfect! The Blue Agave provides conditioning benefits for the dry areas, while the baking soda is great for deep cleaning your pores, giving you targeted treatment for both areas and making this line the perfect solution for combination skin!
The two products I picked up and have been using consistently are the Blue Agave and Baking Soda Balancing Pore Cleanser, which I have been using morning and night, and the Blue Agave and Baking Soda Whipped Nourishing Detox Mask, which I've been using 2-3 times a week!
First off, the cleanser is amazing because it feels super energizing on your skin, so I love making it the first thing that I do each morning because it helps me wake up a bit! To use it, you wet your face and lather a pump of the product in your hands, and then massage it all over your face. The natural jojoba beads gently exfoliate, leaving your skin feeling smooth and refreshed. I like using this cleanser before makeup because my skin feels extra smooth, giving me the perfect base for flawless makeup, and I love using it again right before bed because the baking soda leaves my skin feeling extra clean!
A few times a week, I've also been loving using the Bioré Blue Agave + Baking Soda Whipped Nourishing Detox Mask! On the nights that I use the mask, I first wash my face with the cleanser, but after rinsing off the cleanser I don't dry it! Instead, I put a generous amount of the mask on my fingertips and massage it all over my wet face evenly, avoiding my eyes! The mask has a nice creamy texture, and it feels super tingly and refreshing when it's on, which I think is from the baking soda lifting away dirt, oil, and pollution and why it's so great for purifying clogged pores. This mask has quickly become something I look forward to because it helps me de-stress at the end of a long day! After about 3-5 minutes, I rinse it off and my face feels SO clean! One thing that I will say with this mask is that I would recommend only leaving it on for 3 minutes the first time you use it, just to gauge how your skin will react to it. If you have sensitive skin or react negatively to menthol, this mask may not be for you! I love the tingly minty feeling, but I do feel like if I had sensitive skin it might cause a negative reaction. Another piece of advice with this mask is that you want to be super careful not to leave it on any longer than the maximum 5 minutes!
Having been using these two products for a couple of weeks now, I can definitely see a difference in my pores, and my skin feels clean without feeling excessively dry, as it often does when I use products that promise a deep clean! I definitely see myself continuing to use the Baking Soda + Blue Agave line even after I get back from my trip because I absolutely love the way it's made my skin feel, and it has become one of my favorite parts of my morning and evening skincare routine!

Simple chain grammars
A subclass of the LR(0)-grammars, the class of simple chain grammars is introduced. Although there exist simple chain grammars which are not LL(k) for any k, this new class of grammars is very close related to the class of LL(1) and simple LL(1) grammars. In fact it can be proved (not in this paper) that each simple chain grammar has an equivalent simple LL(1) grammar. A very simple (bottom-up) parsing method is provided. This method follows directly from the definition of a simple chain grammar and can easily be given in terms of the well-known LR(0) parsing method.

the movers were generally quite good and helpful; the administration and organization was terrible. some pieces had cracks, generally on poorly attached pieces
April 12, 2018
We never used a professional mover and what a great surprise it was ! From Ryan Marsh to the office personnel it was all good...all our questions were answered on a timely basis and there were no glitches. The actual move was handled very well by Terry on both ends...they were very respectful of us, our dog and all of our belongings. It was raining in New York on the move out and not a spec of dirt was left anywhere! Terry even helped me get my wife's car onto a trailer...We truly had a great experience in every aspect.
November 10, 2017
boxes were tossed ,upside down, stacked anyway to fix
August 8, 2017
Survey and marking of boxes was quite poor. Some of the stickers fell off and tge item descriptions were nondescript. Movers unloading the truck at the destination were excellent. Very efficient.
August 8, 2017
Please be careful when loading standing tall lamps, and try to disassemble them because they tend to break very easily(like mine did)
July 26, 2017
To many other shipments on truck unable to get everything on truck. Over flow truck sat in Elmira NY for almost two weeks before sending. And still could take up to 5 days to get here. First truck arrived on time. Extremely poor service on over flow shipment
June 20, 2017
We have moved across the country 4 times now. This has, by far, been the smoothest and best move of them all. Courteous staff, timely communication, and high quality care of belongings.
May 24, 2017
All details were right on time and price.
March 1, 2017
Everything went well. The two movers, Roman and Alexi were very hardworking and efficient. Our furniture and boxes arrived on time and without damage.

AceShowbiz - %cWill Ferrell% closed his commencement speech for the University of Southern California's Class of 2017 on Friday, May 12 with a rendition of %cWhitney Houston%'s "I Will Always Love You". The "Saturday Night Live" alum, who graduated in 1990, convinced the graduates that they would never be alone.
"Class of 2017, I just want you to know you will never be alone on whatever path you may choose," he said. "If you do have a moment where you feel a little down just think of the support you have from this great Trojan family and imagine me, literally picture my face, singing this song gently into your ear."
"If I should stay, I would only be in your way. So I'll go, but I know, I'll think of you every step of the way. And I will always love you, will always love you, will always love you, Class of 2017," he continued. "And I will always love you."
In his speech, Will recounted his days as a student and shared his opinions on his major, Sports Information. "[It's] a program so difficult, so arduous, that they discontinued the major eight years after I left," he joked. "We're like the Navy SEALs of USC graduates."
The "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby" star then emphasized that it was okay for not having plans upon leaving college. "To those of you graduates sitting out there who have a pretty good idea of what you'd like to do with your life, congratulations," Will stated. "For many of you who maybe don't have it all figured out, it's okay. That's the same chair that I sat in. Enjoy the process of your search without succumbing to the pressure of the result."

Aloha! Lisa Is Back with Noteworthy OOTDs from BLACKPINK's Recent Hawaii Trip
We must let Lisa teach us the basics for us to become fashionable just like her!
Following the success of their In Your Area world tour, BLACKPINK has recently flown to Hawaii to have their well-deserved vacation. However, they are not in the Aloha State purely for relaxation as they still have to film a travelogue called the 2019 BLACKPINK's Summer Diary: In Hawaii. So the girls are still working while on vacation, showing how passionate they are.
Scrolling through their photos on social media platforms like Instagram made us envious not only by the treatment and fame they received but also with their fashion statements. In this article, we will be focusing on the OOTD of BLACKPINK's maknae and dance machine, Lalisa Manoban, who is also known mononymously as Lisa.
Lisa has this petite figure and well-sculpted abs that we all live for. She greatly knows this and chose to flaunt her assets with a crop top that shows off her flat stomach and shorts that showcase her flawless legs. Surely, that coconut tree she's leaning on is overjoyed!
How To Sport This Look:
Boohoo Scuba Crepe Button Square Neck Crop Top PHP 1149.00
NA-KD Distressed Denim Shorts PHP 2949.00
A big fan of crop tops, Lisa wore a crop top with a collar. She paired the quirky top with denim shorts and black sandals. This look seems formal-ish and casual at the same time and mirrors Lisa's conservative yet fashionable style.
How To Sport This Look:
Bossini Cropped Revere Collar Shirt PHP 439.80
NEXT High Rised Denim Shorts PHP 450.00
CLN Piety Sandals PHP 1499.00
Lisa, with her small physique, can be literally dressed with anything and she'll still look her best. Aside from cropped tops, she also likes wearing mini dresses. In this picture, she donned a spaghetti-strapped, floral mini dress and looks cute in it.
How To Sport This Look:
Mango Spaghetti Strap Dress PHP 1250.00
If we had such a small waist like Lisa, we would surely opt to wear dresses with cut-outs in the waist area. No doubt, she effortlessly rocked this sexy floral terno. Talk about body goals!
How To Sport This Look:
INDIKAH Floral Print Open Back Skater Dress PHP 1439.00
Again, Lisa is back with cropped tops. And here we are, enjoying the view of her envy-worthy abs. This white cropped t-shirt is really something complementary with the camouflage pants. It screams both simplicity and fierceness.
How To Sport This Look:
ZALORA BASICS Basic Cabbage Hem Crop Top PHP 469.00
Womens Camo Cargo Trousers PHP 465.00
Rubi Bianca Bucket Hat PHP 599.00
For that real beach look, mini dresses with eyelet designs are a must-have. Lisa looks cute in this white lace V-neck mini dress which she layers with a black tank top underneath to avoid showing too much skin. You can do this with any V-neck dress too!

After a satisfying vacation in Hawaii, BLACKPINK must now return to their home country, South Korea. Lisa wore a printed tee over loose denim jeans as her final look in Hawaii, before setting foot again in Incheon International Airport.
How To Sport This Look:
Chictees Michelle Floral Cropped Top PHP 559.20
Women Stretchable High Waist Wide Leg Pants PHP 791.10
Lisa never fails to amaze us with her quirky fashion statement that's very relatable for millennial women. Which one from this list of OOTDs do you want to try first?

摘要:回想 3 月 10 日这场 SAT 考试,试题难度一度让很多考生担心,真正等考生走出考场,大家才发现这个担心是多余 , 下面我们一起来看看考情回忆吧。 文章原文: In the spring of 1879, Hermann Lau shot two white-winged choughs,Corcorax melanorhamphos, off their nest in Queensland, Australia. He watched asadditional choughs continued to attend the nest, proving that a cooperativegroup shared parent
In the spring of 1879, Hermann Lau shot two white-winged choughs,Corcorax melanorhamphos, off their nest in Queensland, Australia. He watched asadditional choughs continued to attend the nest, proving that a cooperativegroup shared parental care ( 1). Since then, cooperatively breeding birds havehad a starring role in efforts to explain the evolution of complex animalsocieties. We now know that "helpersat-the-nest" who forgo reproduction areoften relatives of the breeding pair. Genetic payoff is, thus, one of severaladvantages that helpers can gain from their superfi cially altruistic behavior (2). On page 1506 of this issue, Feeney et al. ( 3) show that collective defenseagainst brood parasites (see the fi gure) can enhance such benefi ts ofcooperation. Why do some bird species cooperate and others do not? Globalanalyses have shown that cooperative breeding (now known from 9% of species) isassociated with a slow pace of life (characterized by high survival rates andlow turnover of breeding territories) ( 4), monogamy (which facilitates kinselection within families) ( 5), and unpredictable environments (such as aridzones) that might favor cooperation as a bet-hedging strategy ( 6). But thesefactors often fail to predict the incidence of cooperation among relatedspecies or within geographical regions ( 7). Feeney et al.'s study is built onthe premise that brood parasitism—reproductive cheating by species such ascuckoos and cowbirds, which exploit other birds to raise their young—is asevere selection pressure on their hosts' breeding strategies. Parasitizedparents typically not only lose their current offspring but also waste a wholebreeding season raising a demanding impostor. The best way to avoid parasitismis to repel adult parasites from the nest. Feeney et al. show that socialitycan be pivotal to this process. The authors begin by unfolding a new map. Usingdata compiled by BirdLife International, they show that the global distributionof cooperatively breeding birds overlaps strikingly with that of broodparasites. This overlap need not refl ect a causal relationship:
The same unpredictable environments thatfavor cooperation could also favor alternative breeding strategies such asparasitism. However, the authors go on to show that even within geographicalregions rich in both parasites and cooperators—Australia and southern Africa—cooperativebreeders are much more likely than noncooperative species to be targeted bybrood parasites. To determine the reasons for this correlation, Feeney et al.studied cooperative breeding in superb fairy-wrens (Malurus cyaneus) inAustralia. Horsfield's bronze-cuckoos (Chalcites basalis) should benefi t fromtargeting larger groups of fairy-wrens because more helpers mean faster chickgrowth. Yet, data from a 6-year field study show that in practice, cuckoosrarely experience this advantage, because larger groups of fairywrens much moreeffectively detect and repel egg-laying intrusions by cuckoo females,mobilizing group defenses with a cuckoospecifi c alarm call. Thus, cooperationand parasitism could reciprocally infl uence one another: Cooperators might bemore attractive targets because they make better foster parents, but once
exploited by parasites, they are alsobetter able to fi ght back, helping cooperation to persist ( 8). Feeney et al. find that superior anticuckoo defenses in larger groups account for 0.2 moreyoung fl edged per season on average than smaller groups—a substantial boostgiven the fairy-wrens' low annual fecundity. These results show convincinglythat defense against brood parasites augments the benefi ts of helping, promotingthe persistence of cooperation. But as the authors note, they cannot revealwhat caused cooperation to evolve initially. Brood parasitism alone cannotresolve the question of why some birds breed cooperatively. For example,cooperative kingfi shers and bee-eaters are heavily parasitized in Africa butnot in Australasia, showing that other advantages of helping behavior are sufficient for cooperation to persist. But we should take parasitism seriously as animportant force in a cooperative life. Indeed, it may provide a mechanismcontributing to the previously discovered global correlates of cooperation (4–6). Some insight into the likely order of evolution might come from furthercomparative predictions. For instance, if cooperation arose fi rst as a defenseagainst parasitism, cooperators may be most prevalent among hosts that relyheavily on repelling adult parasites, rather than on antiparasite strategies atlater reproductive stages, such as egg or chick discrimination ( 9). Incontrast, if parasites target existing cooperators because they providesuperior care, this should be especially true of parasites whose chicks havethe most pressing needs—for instance, those in parasitic families with largebody size relative to their hosts or those whose chicks do not kill host youngand therefore must share their foster parents' care. Could there be a similarassociation between cooperation and parasitism among other highly socialanimals? Cooperation in mammals clearly persists irrespective of parasitism, giventhat there are no known brood-parasitic mammals (perhaps because it would bediffi cult for a mammal to insert live young into another's care). Butrepelling parasitic egg-laying intrusions is crucial to many hosts of sociallyparasitic insects and has shaped sophisticated adaptations and counterdefensesfor and against brute force and secrecy ( 10). It will be fascinating toexplore how selection for antiparasitic defense has interacted with monogamyand defensible resources as forces favoring kin-selected cooperation ininvertebrates, touching on an active debate in evolutionary biology. Answers tosuch comparative questions will ultimately be limited by our knowledge ofnatural history. The work by Feeney et al. is testament to the evolutionaryinsights enabled by careful long-term fi eld studies, together with thecumulative legacy of those naturalists who made the unglamorous effort torecord and publish observations of real animals in real places.
