Chocolate of the Day
Trozos de Cacao Cubiertos de Chocolate Oscuro Fino
(Pieces of Cacao (nibs) Covered in Fine Dark Chocolate)
Good + - Good ++
Weight: 1 oz. (28 g.) / 4.06 oz. (115 g.) in total package
Calories: 131 calories (per label) in 1 serving
Cost: $9.49 for 1 package
Purchased from: Piazza's, Palo Alto, CA
Welcome to Day #8 of 100% Cacao and Nibs Theme Week, and the first day (Day #1) of Chocolate and Guatemala Theme Week.
Today's Trozos de Cacao Cubiertas de Chocolate Oscuro Fino (cacao nibs covered in fine dark chocolate) were made with Guatemalan cacao and distributed by Productos Chocola S.A. (Guatemala City, Guatemala, Central America (C.A.)).*
Aroma and flavor notes for these diminutive, dark chocolate-covered nib pieces included dark fruit/berries (ripe blackberry, plum), port (wine), light maple syrup, sweet green/floral sap and faint vanilla and oxalis (sweet-lemony green herbs like sorrel, sour grass). And--especially after biting into them--dark chocolate flavor (with fleeting earth, blackberry and light wood and nut (hazelnut) notes).
These dark granules were flavorful and addicting all by themselves--a high-end, satisfying and compact snack.
They would also make a delicious pairing with vanilla ice cream, or with a cheese plate, handful of roasted nuts and a small glass of fine dessert wine/port or sherry. They'd probably pair well with certain whiskeys as well.
Ingredients: Dark chocolate 50% (sugar, cocoa butter, cacao liquor, soy lecithin (emulsifier), natural vanilla), cacao nibs, gum arabic (glazing agent).
Allergen-related information: "Contains tree nuts, soy products and may contain traces of peanuts."
*Today's Chocola dark chocolate covered cacao nibs were imported into the U.S. The importer/import contact listed on my package was Global Support, LLC (San Francisco, CA).

Hello gorgeous green girls aka eco-friendly Queen #Bees of your home,
Do you know that one out of every three bites of food that we take is because of all the work that honey #bees do? Incredible, isn't it? As we pick out shiny red tomatoes, the freshest of the seasonal produce and nutrient-dense grains to whip up a delicious meal for our families, we can pause for a moment and offer up thanks to the little #honeybees, without whom we wouldn't have this abundant supply of food.
Even if we plant the seeds or the farmer grows the grains, it is the industrious honey bees that pollinate plants and help them thrive. It's not just #honey that the bees provide us, but fresh food buzzing with nutrients and an environment abuzz with creatures of all kinds.
But what do we do in return? We swat the first #bee we see buzzing past. We destroy hives that we see on ledges or hedges around us. We're quick to steal the honey they produce, but just as swift to kill entire colonies of bees.
Today, on our 50th #EarthDay, let's do what Google is doing - celebrate one of the smallest, busiest creatures on the planet - the honey bee! In fact, let's do more than celebrate - let's create more bee-friendly conditions around our homes and help our eco systems thrive.
And no, it's not too much of work. It doesn't take much to make our surroundings and gardens #beefriendly. Here are some simple things we can do to create a safe and happy environment for honey bees:
Grow bee-friendly plants and herbs. Mint, marigold, poppies, zinnia, oregano, nasturtium, sunflowers, black-eyed Susans, borage, pansy and lavender are some of the herbs and flowers that honey bees enjoy. If you stay in an apartment and just have a small porch or a window sill, grow them in pots and grow bags. Check out this article about growing bee-friendly gardens.
Put out some water for the bees. After hours of foraging for nectar, bees look for water to quench their thirst with. Put out a shallow dish with pebbles and twigs breaking the surface of the water, so bees can land on them and drink with ease.
Stop using weed killers and pesticides. Ditch the harmful, chemical versions and use homemade natural pesticides instead. The chemical pesticides and insecticides also end up killing the helper insects.
Offer shelter to bees. You can buy an urban bee hive and learn about bee keeping to help more bees thrive. I love how the Mumbai Balcony Gardener has a profusion of plants and she keeps bees in her small apartment balcony.
Bee more informed. Get onto Dr. Google and research about bees and how they impact our environment and how to save bees. A lot of this fear about bees stems from ignorance. Just because an insect has a sting doesn't mean its out to harm us! Let's create awareness programs about saving bees and start with educating our kids about the impact bees have on the Earth. Read this interview with India's Bee Man and how he is spreading "bee awareness".
Buy local, raw honey. The processed honey that we get from stores, mellow and golden in their branded jars, are stripped out of nutrients and the healing properties of raw honey. One of the best ways to enjoy the benefits of honey and promote safe bee keeping practices is to buy raw honey from bee keepers in and around your locality, who practice ethical bee keeping and offer raw honey to their customers.
Hope this little post has given you a few ideas about how to #SaveTheBees.
Stay well and Bee-well.
Chandana :)
P.S. Share this post with your gorgeous green friends & help us spread the word about #ecofriendly + #simpleliving. Thanks.

MasFernandez Arquitectura tops Chilean home with triangular skylight
MasFernandez Arquitectura has completed a wooden home in the outskirts of Santiago, Chile, for a client that is continually training for triathlon races.
The home is located in Chicureo, a Chilean town within the metropolitan region of Santiago. Its site enjoys easy access to a network of running and cycling trails that the owner uses for training.
MasFernandez also added a lap pool to the property, to allow the owners to train for swimming events as well. According to the architects, the owners are "high-performance athletes, that dedicate much of their time to practicing triathlon".
Located in the centre of a relatively large plot, the home itself is laid out as a three-point star, with no defined front or back facades.
MasFernandez Arquitectura explains that this layout maximises the number of windows within each room, allowing every bedroom to have direct access to the outdoors.
"The three-point star-shaped floor plan expands the perimeter and maximises the relationship with the exterior," said the studio based in Santiago.
"The pattern offers a clear distribution and an efficient use of the floor plan, in a house that effectively engages with its surroundings," they added.
The building is topped with a gently sloping roof, which defines an angular geometry where the three volumes intersect with one another.
The perimeter of the single-storey home is protected from the elements by this roof's overhang. The main entrance is towards the centre, where the three arms of the building converge.
This central space is the main living area and helps organise the three wings. The shortest contains the kitchen and dining room, and a laundry room with separate access to the exterior.
The other two legs are of roughly equal size. One contains the residents' bedrooms with a small home office, and the other has a guest suite and a home gym.
At the centre of the house, a skylight helps illuminate the main living area. "Each arm converges to the centre, where a triangular skylight arranges the common spaces into each direction," said MasFernandez Arquitectura.
The property was built using engineered wood, including glue-laminated structural beams and columns, and wooden walls. This palette extends to wall-coverings, doors and ceilings, lending a cohesive feeling to the interiors.
According to MasFernandez Arquitectura, wood was chosen for its sustainability and energy-efficiency characteristics. In certain areas, the architects designed a slatted pattern for the walls, which adds visual interest to the material.
Throughout the residence, a continuously concrete slab forms the interior and exterior floor finish.
Other residential projects in Chile include a block of row houses that was designed to appear as if it were one large residence, and a ski chalet that was built upon the foundations of a previous, unfinished project.
The photography is by Nico Saieh.

It's been quite a year for Chef Mauro Colagreco–his restaurant Mirazur was awarded three Michelin stars in January and then, in June, elected the best restaurant in the world by The World's 50 Best Restaurants. It comes as no surprise that if you want to visit Mirazur you should book your table six months in advance! While waiting and planning your trip to the south of France, you can visit another one of the illustrious chef's restaurants, Grill 58 at MGM Cotai where Chef Mauro created the menu using the best ingredients with the influence of his Argentinian roots.
On his recent visit to Macau, we sat down with Chef Mauro to congratulate him on his recent culinary achievements and to ask what's next.
Wow, what a year it's been! First, the third Michelin Star in January and then, in June, #1 on The World's 50 Best Restaurants (Mirazur in Menton, France). How does it feel to be on top of the world?
It's so exciting and emotional but also tough as it's a big responsibility. I am very proud of my team, my family, and I am very happy. My restaurant Mirazur is fully booked for six months ahead and it's a big success.
So now, after achieving top recognition by two of the most prestigious culinary awards institutions, what is your next goal?
It wasn't really a goal of mine. When I started to cook in Argentina it was just for passion for cooking. I didn't know about Michelin stars as the Michelin Guide didn't exist in Argentina. I didn't know about The World's 50 Best Restaurants as it didn't exist at that time yet.
It was only when I came to France 20 years ago that I discovered the world of Michelin starred chefs. Many people have asked me this question and I've been thinking a lot about it. For us, this recognition is not the goal. It is an important recognition, but our goal is to make people happy by working better every day, with the whole team.
Do you remember your first Michelin dining experience? How did it feel? Did you know back then that that's where you wanted to be in the future?
I remember that experience as if it was today. It was a restaurant of chef Santi Santamaria, Can Fabes in Catalonia, Spain. It was my first three Michelin star meal and I thought to myself, "Wow, I want to work in a place like this". I arrived to study in France in 2000 and at the end of the year we went on a tour to the north of France. I saved money for three months and made a booking. It was truly fantastic, I remember so many things, even the uniforms! That was the first time when I thought I want to work in a restaurant of this level.
And then I started working in France. When I left Argentina to go to France, the plan was for two and a maximum of four years, and then go back to Argentina. It's been twenty years!
Diners need to book a table at Mirazur for months in advance whereas Macau and Hong Kong are privileged to have access to your creations at MGM's Grill 58. What should we choose from Grill 58's menu to feel like we are in the south of France?
The flavors of food and memories can make you travel–the flavor of citrus, the idea of sea and mountains would make you think of Mirazur. But the concept of Grill 58 is different–it's a steak house. We don't want to recreate the south of France here but rather, present a Mauro Colagreco restaurant, which speaks for itself. In this restaurant, I like to play with my Argentinian roots–the grill and the meat. Here we have a custom-built Himalayan salt meat-aging room where we bring very special meat from all over the world. We care a lot about the quality and sustainability, bringing a lot of grass-fed meat as well as supporting MGM with the no-plastic initiative.
It's a privilege to be here in Macau and have this great partnership between MGM Cotai and Mirazur.
To put it simply, Grill 58 is a steakhouse. What makes it different compared to others?
Me (laughs). Firstly, not only is there grilled food but also teppanyaki so we cook meat in western style as well as the Asian way, consistently choosing the best meat available. I also try to bring my own touch, whether it's something Argentinian, Italian or French–I have a lot of roots! This is where you can really see the difference, especially with the starter dishes and garnishes. There is no recipe for a restaurant; we study the destination, bring different ingredients, and then we develop further. At Grill 58, we've created a small garden with herbs and looking at bringing a few more changes. The difference is in the details.
Overseeing Grill 58 restaurant in Macau, you are a regular in Asia. What are some restaurants on your wish-to-visit list?
Oh, so many! I am going to Tokyo, Japan later this year where I haven't been since 2012, so I am very excited. I've never been to Taiwan or Vietnam and it's very interesting what's happening there culinarily speaking. I recently went to a vegetarian Michelin starred restaurant in Shanghai, Fu He Hui and it was phenomenal–the technics and flavors were amazing. We are working on opening a restaurant in Bangkok as it's a great dining destination. And, of course, Hong Kong is always a great city to visit.
As an Italian Argentine living in France, you speak five languages, what dish would you make to connect with a person if you couldn't speak?
It will most certainly be something from my garden… I am thinking of tomatoes, olive oil, sea salt–real ingredients.
How often do you create new dishes? Where do you get your ideas from?
I complicate my (and my team's) life with the choice we've made to never repeat a dish for the same guests. We have one guest who came more than 120 times and has never eaten the same dish!
We create something new at least twice a week. My team is very cosmopolitan and I work a lot with them–it generates a lot of ideas. I also travel a lot, which is a great source of inspiration.
My restaurant Mirazur is located in a fantastic place, located not only between France and Italy but also on a natural border between the sea and the mountains. The variety of products is amazing. The most powerful aspect of my creations is that I am not from there. I've never been to Côte d'Azur before opening the restaurant and it's been a wonderful source of new ideas.
You have a lot of younger chefs working with you. How do you recognize the rising stars among all that talent?
The talent does not come from technic but from their personality. I love seeing young chefs that are not afraid to work. To become a good cook one needs to work a lot; it's not an eight-hour job. It's a job where you learn while doing things with your hands and looking with your eyes. Everything is moving so fast these days and very often young people don't have the patience to wait. One needs to be a hard worker and there is no way around it.
And, finally, what do you cook for your family on a day off?
Tomatoes, olive oil, and some salt (laughs)!
Normally, my wife Julia cooks and sometimes it's me, but very simple. I love to cook simple soups. I love gazpacho for summer or now we have squash in our garden and it's truffle season so it's time for squash soup with some truffle!

According to a new report by Deadspin, WWE doctor Chris Amann, who last week lost his defamation lawsuit against CM Punk, was at one point during his time in WWE involved in a sexual relationship with former WWE star Jillian Hall.
The report notes the trial already unveiled a myriad of potential issues for Amann including HIPAA privacy violations and incomplete record-keeping, but there might be a deeper issue at play which could have ramifications on Amann's career as a doctor.
Read Also: CM Punk Talks 'Losing His Emotions' During Amann Trial
The report claims Amann filed a number of motions ahead of the trial to have certain topics barred from mention during courtroom proceedings, and one of the topics was a sexual relationship with Jillian Hall, who was a patient of Amann's during the time they were a couple.
"You cannot have romantic relationships with your patients", said NYU medical ethics professor Arthur Caplan. "There are a number of reasons why: First, it distorts your objectivity in terms of treating them. They can bamboozle you, or you can feel like 'I wanna please them, so I'll give them more pain meds,' or whatever they're asking for. Second, they have enough problems working with wrestlers because they have what we call dual loyalties."
Deadspin did attempt to reach out to Amann and his lawyers for comment on the Hall relationship, but as of this writing, no comment has been obtained. A spokesperson for WWE, however, did issue the following statement:
We were not aware of this. We are investigating the matter and will determine if any action is warranted.

It's worth noting that the court record revealing the relationship between Amann and Hall was not sealed, and the Deadspin article questions why the record was entered as public as opposed to being filed under seal.

A teenage girl drowned in the Loomeer swimming pond near the village of Schoonloo in Drenthe on Saturday.
The girl, who was born in 2006, disappeared in the late afternoon. A bystander had just pulled the unconscious girl out of the water when emergency services arrived at the scene on Saturday.
RTV Drenthe reports that medical personnel on the scene immediately began trying to resuscitate the girl. She was transported to the hospital by helicopter, but doctors were unable to save her life because she had been underwater for too long.
Like many swimming ponds in Drenthe, Loomeer is a former sand excavation site. The pond is relatively shallow: the maximum depth is typically only two metres, depending on the groundwater levels.

Pequot Lakes, MN (KROC-AM News) - Two central Minnesota men are accused of pretending to be police officers and forcing their way into a cabin where one of them raped a woman.
According to the criminal complaint, the woman was at the residence in Pequot Lakes Sunday when two men appeared at the door and identified themselves as officers. They kicked open the door and after threatening the woman several times, one of the men sexually assaulted her.
The woman told police about the assault Monday.
The men were identified and one of them was arrested Tuesday. The complaint says 39-year-old Jeremy Haff of Pequot Lakes corroborated the woman's statement. He was arraigned Wednesday on charges of impersonating an officer and burglary and his conditional bail was set at $100,000.
Police arrested 28-year-old Mason Headlee of Virginia, Minnesota Wednesday. He was arraigned Friday on criminal sexual conduct and burglary charges and one count of impersonating an officer. His conditional bail was set at $200,000.

In our lives of comfort we sometimes miss something that we do find in our dreams, holidays, books, love and movies! And some of us are close to it. I do understand my brothers who go to Afghanistan for adventure. My dear acquaintance Paul de Blot once told me how grateful he was for the real friendship that he experienced when he was in a Japanese prison camp during the war.
I remember the special story of this blind boy who was the leader of the biggest resistance group in Paris during the second world war. Because of his blindness he had to develop other senses, furthermore his parents gave him the support not to believe in the limitations of blindness. He describes how he slowly started to feel everything more and more as a vibration, as light! This experience reached its peak in a concentration camp where he was imprisoned because he was betrayed. (The title of the book is: And there was light).
Last wednesdaynight the wheather was incredibly warm and pleasant at the Leidseplein in Amsterdam. We went to the movies with a delicious Starbucks chai in our hands. Wow, what a movie, a raw, genuine, light, beautiful movie. About a girl who lives with her father in the middle of wild nature, catching fish with your hands, storms. Anger, grief, death, life, dream, reality, drinking, just gorgeous. Really inspiring to be so close to life itself and to completely go for it. They have to hand over a sense safety and security, but they get something in return. (Beasts of the southern wild).

Late March this year Jensen Retail Group created a groundbreaking concept for boozt.com's very first physical customer universe. It was our intention to create a total experience that completely separates itself from all the other beauty concepts on the market. An experience where boozt.com's high standards, when it comes to service, are translated into a whole new platform, where they can actually meet their customers.
Since it is their first physical shop, we have had the opportunity to translate boozt.com's values and develop an identity which can lead the way forward. When it comes to style, the design clearly carries references to the art deco-period's decadent universe, where materials like brass, glass and velour are in dialogue with a sharp geometric design language.
The colors are deep, and along with the soft fabrics on the floors and walls, they create a pronounced sensuality and a feminine expression which is a sharp contrast to the rest of the shopping center outside Beauty by boozt.com. We have aimed for an undefined feeling that you enter into an exquisite hotel.
It has been a clear goal for us in relation to the shape and depth of the shop that you can not overcome it all at once, and instead we have created a visual division, where you move into small exclusive coupons you feel comfortable in.
By creating these different experience zones and 'spaces' in the shop, where there is time to think and to sense the products better, we have created a feeling of being in an exclusive walk-in-closet. It is the intention that you forget the fact that you are in a shop and start feeling like an appreciated guest in an exquisite home.

The SOUL OF AFRICA Non Provit Organization
The Soul of Africa e.V non-profit organization was founded in 2004 and registered in the court of Essen in February 2005. The primary goal of the organization is to promote African culture. The organization has been declared as a non-profit organization by the tax authorities in Germany. Even before the organization got its present legal status several projects were realized in West Africa. Among them was the building of a natural medicine clinic in Dotou, Benin. And a learning program "youth discovering their own culture" in the national museum of Porto Novo, Benin. Other projects the organization supports was to buy unwed mothers sewing machines to help them earn a living, paying school fees for needy children, and building a school in Benin.
In Oku, Cameroon we planned and built "The Soul of Oku Museum". It is now our partner museum showing a beautiful collection of local art and culture.

Singtel share price in devastating bloodbath
Singtel share price in nuclear meltdown", I predicted that Singtel share price will collapse upon the announcement of a dividend cut. Indeed, Singtel share price plummeted upon the release of full-year financial result for FY2020 which saw full-year dividend being reduced to 12.25 cents. This is the lowest dividend since FY2005.
In my previous article "Singtel share price to swim or sink with coronavirus?
Singtel share price in double trouble
Singtel share price faces disaster
Many analysts may argue that it is the poor financial performance that wrecked Singtel share price. To this end, I do not disagree. Group revenue declined 5% while net profit crashed 65% year-on-year. However, most of the shareholders of Singtel are long-term investors and I honestly doubt that they are spooked by the financial result. It should be the massive cut in dividend that scared the living daylight out of investors.
Year-to-date, Singtel share price had tanked 27%. In fact, Singtel share price has crossed my previous target entry price of $2.60. At this moment, it is too early to tell if it is going to be light at end of tunnel for Singtel share price anytime soon. Nevertheless, at current trading momentum, this counter could test the low of $2.28 seen on 23 March 2020. That was the fateful day in which most, if not all, SGX crashed due to maximum fear induced by COVID-19 pandemic.
If Singtel share price does breach the support level of $2.28, expect all hell to break loose for this leading light of SGX. Under such circumstances, it may not be a bad thing for long-term investors seeking to accumulate this blue chip on the cheap. In this article, I will attempt to analyse the outlook for Singtel in FY2021.
Note that this is an opinion article and not meant to be a financial advice. Please do your due diligence or engage financial advisors before investing in the stock market. Furthermore, I am not vested and have never invested in Singtel before. Whether Singtel share price will surge or collapse has no impact on me. Thus, this article is not meant to induce readers to make any form of investment decisions.
Singtel share price on nightmare run
I have been following Singtel share price for a number of years. The last time that Singtel share price sunk to $2.00 level was during the Great Financial Crisis in 2008. The current pandemic crisis has the potential to push Singtel share price to such level but it appears that the worst is over since 23 March 2020. That was when the overall market bottomed. It seems that the current challenge confronting Singtel share price should be the sticky issue of Bharti Airtel and the cut in dividend.
But before we go into details about Bharti Airtel, let's examine the devastating effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on Singtel share price. The virus has led to global travel restrictions, leading to significant reductions in roaming and prepaid revenues. On the other hand, numerous businesses also reduce their spending in light of the crisis. All these combined to cause all the business segments of Singtel to record lower revenues.
To be fair to the management, it is not a sea of red as Singtel still reported net profit of $1.075 billion. Nonetheless, this is the lowest annual net profit for the telco in more than two decades. Therefore, this explains the crisis of confidence on Singtel share price. Make no mistake, no winter lasts forever and COVID-19 pandemic will blow over in no time.

Location: Nahal Hever Contents: Deuteronomy 9:4-7, 21-23 Deuteronomy 9 4 Don't say in your heart, after Yahweh your God has thrust them out from before you, saying, "For my righteousness Yahweh has brought me in to possess this land;" because Yahweh drives them out before you because of the wickedness of these nations. 5 Not for your righteousness, or for the uprightness of your heart, do you go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations Yahweh your God does drive them out from before you, and that he may establish the word which Yahweh swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. 6 Know therefore, that Yahweh your God doesn't give you this good land to possess for your righteousness; for you are a stiff-necked people. 7 Remember, and don't forget, how you provoked Yahweh your God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that you left the land of Egypt, until you came to this place, you have been rebellious against Yahweh. [..] 21 I took your sin, the calf which you had made, and burned it with fire, and crushed it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust. I threw its dust into the brook that descended out of the mountain. 22 At Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth Hattaavah, you provoked Yahweh to wrath. 23 When Yahweh sent you from Kadesh Barnea, saying, "Go up and possess the land which I have given you," you rebelled against the commandment of Yahweh your God, and you didn't believe him, nor listen to his voice. |

MahaDAO is Integrating Chainlink Price Feeds to Secure the ARTH GMU Peg
Chainlink was chosen by MahaDao as the preferred oracle solution because it offers pre-built decentralized pricing oracles for all assets in the GMU basket, all of which have been time-tested and proved to secure billions of dollars in value for top DeFi protocols. Chainlink Price Feeds obtain price data from high-quality data providers with extensive market coverage and a track record of uptime, even during periods of extreme market volatility and network congestion.
ARTH GMU and Price Oracles
The second version of ARTH, the world's first valuecoin, will be released soon by MahaDAO. The majority of stablecoins are linked to the US dollar, however ARTH is unique in that it is fixed to the Global Measurement Unit (GMU).
The GMU is a monetary unit whose value is linked to global purchasing power. By generating a basket of assets, ARTH creates a unique composition to calculate the GMU. As a result, the pegged price of ARTH is based on the total value of the assets in the basket rather than 1 US Dollar.
Why MahaDao Selected Chainlink Price Feeds
Chainlink Price Feeds are widely utilized throughout DeFi because they meet the highest industry standards for data quality, secure infrastructure, network dependability, and on-chain performance transparency. The following are some of the major aspects of Chainlink Price Feeds that influenced the decision to integrate them:
- High-Quality Data —Price data is pooled from hundreds of exchanges, weighted by volume, and cleaned from outliers and wash trading using Chainlink Price Feeds, which are sourced from a number of premium data aggregators such as BraveNewCoin and Kaiko. This produces accurate worldwide market values that are immune to API outages, flash crash outliers, and data manipulation attempts such as flash loans.
- Secure Node Operators —Independent, security-reviewed, and Sybil-resistant oracle nodes run by premier blockchain DevOps teams, data providers, and traditional organizations protect Chainlink Price Feeds. Even during high gas prices and infrastructural failures, Chainlink nodes have a proven track record of reliability (e.g., Infura).
- Decentralized Network —At the data source, oracle node, and oracle network levels, Chainlink Price Feeds are decentralized, resulting in robust defenses against outages and tampering by either the data provider or the oracle network.
- Reputation — Users can independently evaluate the previous performance of node operators and oracle networks, as well as examine the real-time prices being offered, using Chainlink's reputation architecture and set of on-chain monitoring tools.
Importantly, Chainlink will be able to publish two new Price Feeds that are currently unavailable in order to complement our weighted basket, allowing for the creation of a comprehensive GMU Price Feed for MahaDAO.
About MahaDao
MahaDAO is a community-powered, decentralized autonomous organization on a mission to empower billions to preserve their purchasing power through the world's first valuecoin, ARTH.
About Chainlink
The most extensively utilized and secure approach to power universally connected smart contracts is through Chainlink. Developers can use Chainlink to connect any blockchain to high-quality data from other blockchains as well as real-world data. Chainlink, which is run by a worldwide, decentralized community of hundreds of thousands of individuals, is implementing a more equitable contracting mechanism. Its network presently secures billions of dollars in smart contract value across a variety of ecosystems, including Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Insurance, and Gaming.

Most stocks are traded on exchanges, which are places where buyers and sellers meet and decide on a price. Some exchanges are physical locations where transactions are carried out on a trading floor. You've probably seen pictures of a trading floor, in which traders are wildly throwing their arms up, waving, yelling, and signaling to each other. The other type of exchange is virtual, composed of a network of computers where trades are made electronically.
The purpose of a stock market is to facilitate the exchange of securities between buyers and sellers, reducing the risks of investing.
The BSE, formerly known as the Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd., is an Indian stock exchange located at Dalal Street, Mumbai. Established in 1875, it is Asia's oldest stock exchange. The BSE is the world's 10th largest stock exchange with an overall market capitalization of more than US$2.2 trillion on as of April 2018.
National Stock Exchange of India Limited is the leading stock exchange of India, located in Mumbai, Maharashtra. NSE was established in 1992 as the first dematerialized electronic exchange in the country.
- Invest in approximately 20 to 30 stocks in at least six to eight sectors with different investment characteristics.
- No more than 20% of the total value of your stock portfolio should be in any one sector.
- No more than 10% of the total value of your stock portfolio should be in any one stock.
- You should invest a minimum of approximately 3% to 4% of the total value of your stock portfolio in each stock.
Deciding which stocks to invest in can be difficult, especially if you have a low tolerance for risk. That's why it's important to define one's financial goals and how much risk can be tolerated. Research stocks that fit within your strategy and invest in stocks that have the potential to help you meet your specific goals, whether you want investment growth, income, or a combination of the two.

Use the qmlprojectexporter to export the QML sources, image assets and fonts into compilable c++ code. It parses a .qmlproject
file listing the assets with exporting options, and converts them. In addition, qmlprojectexporter also exports plaintext lists of the imported and exported files, for convenient automatic use by a 3rd party build system, such as CMake.
Usage of qmlprojectexporter in a CMake project
Using qmlprojectexporter with a CMake build system is straightforward and the Qul CMake macro qul_add_target already takes care of calling qmlprojectexporter with the right parameters, and it requires defining the "QML_PROJECT" argument followed by a qmlproject file as shown next.
qul_add_target(my_project QML_PROJECT my_project.qmlproject)
When using qmlprojectexporter, the following CMake macros are not needed as they are handled by the qmlprojectexporter call.
- qul_target_qml_sources
- qul_target_generate_interfaces
- qul_target_embed_translations
- qul_add_qml_module
Also setting the following target properties from CMake is not required
Note for a working Qul application with CMake it is still required to call app_target_setup_os and app_target_default_entrypoint macros after adding the qmlproject target as shown next.
app_target_setup_os(myproject) // With a Main.qml (specified only as Main) being the entrypoint app_target_default_entrypoint(swipe_game_qmlproject Main)
Using standalone qmlprojectexporter
When using a build system other than CMake it is still possible to use qmlprojectexporter directly. And afterwards, handling the generated assets files with a build system of choice.
qmlprojectexporter --outdir output_directory myproject.qmlproject
Note: Look at the QmlProject reference for the extended list of qmlprojectexporter commandline options
This executable was introduced in QmlProject API 1.3.
Available under certain Qt licenses.

5 Things I Learned After Getting a Facial
This post has been sponsored by Healthy Essentials. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Last month, I finally had my first experience in receiving a facial. Even though I got pretty serious about my skin care over the last few years, I've never actually gone to see a professional. I did put hours into research, however, and came up with a pretty good routine. Or so I thought. I was very lucky because my aesthetician was not only incredibly talented (she came highly recommended by a friend) but also unbelievably knowledgeable. And she dropped some really good insight that I thought I'd share with you because her little pearls of wisdom have really changed the way I approach my skincare.
Do not wash your face in the shower
One of my favorite habits was taking a super hot shower, especially after my yoga class. The studio has babysitting and the quick rinse after class is truly a highlight. I pack all of my essentials in my gym bag, like Neutrogena Make Up Remover Wipes and other goodies so that I can indulge before and during the hot shower.
Turns out, hot showers are not the best for your skin—especially the delicate chest and face areas. My aesthetician said to literally turn my back to the water to protect my neck, chest, and face and wash my face with lukewarm water instead and not in the shower.
Now, I make sure to use the Neutrogena Make Up Remover Wipes while not in the shower and then follow up with Aveeno Positively Radiant Sheer lotion; it has SPF and is super lightweight.
It's also a Johnson & Johnson product, like Neutrogena, and right now there is an amazing deal going on!

Exfoliate only once or twice a week
Because I have quite a few broken capillaries around my nose and cheeks, my skin looks red. Turns out, my daily exfoliating was making it worse. At night, I would wear soothing creams and then scrub all of that effort away in the morning.
In short, exfoliating is beneficial but not on the daily and not for sensitive skin.
If you have red or sensitive skin, my aesthetician recommended doing charcoal masks instead of exfoliating. Spa party after yoga anyone?
Use gels instead of creams
Speaking of layering creams. My aesthetician recommended I switch to a gel instead. I love the Neutrogena HydroBoost gel-cream. It's perfect for morning because it's refreshing and helps diminish AM puffiness. The light, silky texture of the Neutrogena HydroBoost Water Gel also works well under makeup. Rich eye creams, on the other hand, can cause concealer to crease into lines. So, the more you know.
Hyaluronic Acid Is Your BFF
My facial took about an hour. A heavenly, glorious hour. Except maybe the extraction part… But in that hour, my aesthetician mentioned Hyaluronic Acid about 20 times. Find all the products that contain this gem and use them a lot.
BTW, the HydroBoost Water Gel from Neutrogena has Hyaluronic acid in a bid to maintain moisture levels. Thanks to aging and environmental aggressors, our natural levels of Hyaluronic Acid diminish.
This is the perfect little jar to carry with you for soft, supple, and moisturized skin after a yoga class or just in the morning. Neutrogena also has a gel HydroBoost Eye Gel-Cream—so if you have dryness under the eyes, this could be a game changer for you.
Plus, if you buy $30 worth of Johnson & Johnson product, you get a $10 reward so basically, free eye hydration. You are welcome.
Facials Should Be a Part of Your Skin Care
If you have the opportunity to see an aesthetician, I highly recommend doing so. My skin felt rejuvenated and extra moisturized for days. The recommendation is to visit every six weeks or so, but for me that's not realistic. But, even if I get to her office once or twice a year, I think my skin will definitely thank me!
But, if you don't get to indulge soon, I hope these 4 things I learned after my first facial will be helpful and workable into your own skin care routine.

The day dawned beautiful, bright, and clear. The morning dew glistened from the single pink rose in front of our house. The air was crisp and cool with not a single hint of the trouble that we know is raging all around the world. From our front porch, looking out over the mountains all is peaceful.
A lady, MooBree, had come to our clinic the day before, inviting us to come and have worship in her home at 9 oclock in CoDeJo village the next morning. The name, CoDeJo means, "Wait a minute." This is a village far up in the mountains east of us. A while ago the only way we could get to that village is to walk through WST and keep walking up up up a very steep mountain for about an hour. We called this little pathway, leech lane because in rainy season this place is swarming with those slippery, slimy creatures! In those days CoDeJo consisted of only 3 houses. Now however there is a way to get there on motorbike taking a western approach on a rugged pathway and there are a total of 7 houses.
MooBree told us that of the seven houses, 3 of them were now Christian. She herself had just joined the Baptist church. Her 2 teenage children would be leaving for school soon, and she wanted prayers for the entire family, because it is time to clear the land for this years rice garden, which is very hard work. She had invited the Baptist pastor and us, so we thought that he would be conducting the worship. Just in case, I prepared a suitable worship for the occasion.
DeeMu and his brother, DaClay also came on their motorbike. They followed behind us. The road got worse and worse, until finally, very close to CoDeJo, our motorbike just slid halfway around as it bounced out of one big rut to another. We almost went down, but BletJhaw saved it and I bounced completely off the seat, spun around and had only one leg over the seat and one hand grabbing BletJhaw's arm! Somehow I did not fall off, but I surely must have looked like some sort of contortionist – not very graceful!
We arrived shortly before 9 oclock, but the people were nowhere near ready for the worship. It is customary to serve some food after the worship and they found out that I did not eat meat. This put them in a flurry and they sent their daughter out to buy some eggs. We waited for over an hour. The Baptist pastor was there. I am always so happy to see him because I have been praying for him for over 10 years!
We all enjoyed the lovely view because CoDeJo is on top of a massive mountain and you can see 180 degrees of scenery. I made friends with a couple of ladies who took me to their house for a little visit.
Finally we assembled at MooBree's house where I discovered that the Baptist pastor did not want to do the worship. He wanted me to do it. I'm so glad that I had taken pains to prepare something. It always thrills my soul to share Jesus with these people. Afterwards they served the usual meat dishes to everyone, but they gave me a wonderful dish of greens and also egg omelets.
As soon as that meal was finished, a second lady who was a Christian asked us to please come and have worship in her home because her small child would be going to school soon also. This time I was sure the Baptist pastor would conduct the worship, but no, he didn't want to! I must do this one also and I had nothing prepared. Nobody else volunteered to do it. God helped me talk to this group of people also. The lady had some rice noodles served with meat water that she gave to everyone. I graciously declined as I do not and cannot eat any part of meat! It was a blessing for me because none of us were a bit hungry after our feast at the previous house!
No sooner had that worship and meal ended when the 3rd Christian family, not wanting to be left out, invited us to come to their house to do worship for them also! The lady couldn't think of any reason for the worship, so she requested prayer for her shoulder, which sometimes gave her trouble. Thankfully there was no food at this house! BletJhaw and I decided that we could each one share something at this worship because the Baptist pastor still would not conduct the worship. So we went down the line and 5 of us shared, ending with the Baptist pastor who didn't say much, nor did he use a Bible verse. I pray that somehow the Holy Spirit worked on his heart as well as the others, as he listened to the SDA worships because I felt the presence of Jesus and had been so blessed to be in these 3 homes and meet the dear people who are somehow happy to call themselves Christians, but who know almost nothing about God or the Bible.
At the end of the day, a lady who had walked up the mountain trail from WST by herself, asked if I would walk back down with her. She wanted me to check her husband's foot that had been badly burned 2 weeks ago but not healing. BletJhaw didn't mind staying by himself to treat the sick with the small amount of supplies we had brought, so down the mountain we trotted. It took us a long time to reach WST, but as soon as we entered her house, BletJhaw drove up on the motorbike! What excellent timing!
* * * * * *
In conclusion I must say that our lives are packed with opportunities to share Jesus in all different locations and circumstances throughout these jungle mountains. Most of the time the people will just show up at our door and ask us to come right away for a worship in their home. We have no time to prepare something suitable but must stop everything and go! Sometimes it is that their children are going off to school, or sickness in the family, or superstitions and fears from a bad dream, or because they experienced a bad omen. Recently worship were called because people had just been released from prison due to the possession and sales of opium. On and on the list goes. Some people must feel that having a worship will cast off a bad spell, or prevent calamities. Many times they call us because their sacrifices and ceremonies to the devil did not do any good, so they will try us! But our desire is that they will, in the process, fall in love with the dear Savior and that the truth of God's Word will draw their hearts to Him!

Dear all,
I have a digg-clone website. However, I want it so that when a user
clicks on a link (which links to another website), it opens up the link
along with embedded discussion (from my website). This is so that a user
can both view the link and also discuss it at the same time.
Are there examples of ways of doing this? I am interested in using Ajax
or Javascript to do this. I do wish there is a more elegant solution
than using frame or iframe.
Thank you,

Ric Flair is "back up and running"—WOOOOO!
In mid-August, the 68-year-old iconic wrestling star was hospitalized for "tough medical issues," was placed in a medically induced coma, and underwent surgery.
He returned to social media Saturday with a personal video message.

Before William Barr began shielding President Donald Trump as Attorney General, former Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) held the post.
Despite being one of the most Conservative figures in American politics, Sessions earned Trump's ire when he recused himself from overseeing the Russia investigation.
Trump would frequently bash Sessions on Twitter and at campaign rallies until Sessions resigned.
Now, the former Attorney General is trying to regain his Senate seat, and in a recent campaign video, he heaps praise upon the President who publicly humiliated him.
This isn't a campaign ad, it's a hostage video. https://t.co/IXdtS3I9aY— Ezra Klein (@Ezra Klein) 1573176439.0
In the video, Sessions compares himself to other ex-Trump cabinet officials while confirming his submission to Trump.
"When I left President Trump's cabinet, did I write a tell-all book? No. Did I go on CNN and attack the President? Nope. Have I said a cross word about our President? Not one time."
Despite it being an ad for his Senate campaign, Sessions never mentions it once. He only praises Trump.
"I was there to serve his agenda, not mine...The President's doing a great job for America and Alabama, and he has my strong support."
The feeling isn't mutual. Trump has mocked Sessions at public events.

The Alabama Senate race in 2020 is sure to be a competitive one. Democrat Doug Jones pulled off an upset victory in the special election to replace Sessions, beating Republican and multiple accused pedophile Roy Moore, who also intends to run again, and who's been even more harshly condemned by Trump.
Trump's famous tendency to hold a grudge may prove interesting when it comes time to endorse a candidate in Alabama.

"Excellent job. My case was dismissed, due to very professional services of Doug Murphy Law Firm."-A.B.
Lab Errors in a Texas DWI
If the police arrested you for a DWI in Texas, you might be worried about what will happen next. You may also be concerned about how a DWI conviction will affect your life. Your concerns are valid, but it's important not to jump ahead and assume that a court will convict you. Even with a blood alcohol content (BAC) over the legal limit, a DWI charge isn't insurmountable. With an expert in DWI defense by your side, you'll have the best possible chance for a good outcome.
What is a DWI in Texas?
Texas law defines driving while intoxicated as operating a motor vehicle in a public place:
- With a BAC of.08% or higher, or.04% or higher if you have a commercial driver's license, or
- When you no longer have the normal use of your physical or mental faculties.
See Tex. Criminal Code § 49.01. A DWI in Texas doesn't have to involve a BAC over the legal limit. Under Texas law, the police can also arrest you for DWI if you no longer have the normal use of your mental or physical faculties. Of course, this is a subjective standard, so many DWI arrests do involve a BAC over the legal limit of.08% or.04%.
Determining BAC in Texas
While the legal BAC limit in Texas is a more objective standard than the police trying to determine whether you have the "normal use of your mental or physical faculties," BAC tests aren't completely dependable. Errors can happen in both blood and breath BAC testing.
It's important to remember that while BAC testing is much more objective than police observations, the tests are also run by humans who make mistakes. Lab errors can include:
- The lab tech fails to handle the sample properly,
- The lab fails to store your sample properly,
- The tech collecting your blood sample doesn't use the proper amount of anticoagulant,
- The lab mixes your sample up with someone else's,
- The lab fails to retain some of your blood for future testing or doesn't collect enough blood,
- The equipment testing your blood hasn't been properly maintained, cleaned, or serviced,
- The lab tech running the test wasn't properly trained,
- The blood samples coagulate or ferment, or
- Someone breaks the chain of custody with your blood samples.
An expert in DWI defense will know how to look for these possible errors and develop the best possible defense for you in response.
You Need an Expert in Texas DWI Defense
If you're facing a DWI charge in Texas, you need the help of an expert in DWI defense. Attorney Doug Murphy is an expert in Texas DWI defense and criminal defense law. Doug is Board Certified in both DWI Defense and Criminal Defense Law, making him an expert in these fields. Moreover, he is one of only two attorneys in the entire state who is Board Certified in both these fields.
The Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association also awarded Doug the Sharon Levine Unsung Hero Award for his role in exposing flaws in the Houston Police Department's Breath Alcohol Testing vans, which led to HPD decommissioning the vans. Recently, U.S. News and World Report also named Doug to its list of Best Lawyers in America for DWI defense in Houston for 2021. He can help you too.

Reflections of the Season
By JoAnn Moore
Riotous spring colors erupt
through the landscape,
after weeks of mid-winter warmth,
safe in their evolutionary guideposts
that Mother Nature won't
fail them.
Grandchildren run and climb
careful not to injure
the delicate daffodils, wayward
crocuses, insurgent magnolias.
Hues clash under the golden
warm blue sky. Meanwhile
the firmament rains
bombs the color of war
half a world away
as winter deepens.
With kindergartens crumbled and
streets on fire
subway tunnels become refuge
as teenagers, teachers and grandfathers
of pride
learning how to fire a gun—
disquietly knowing it all
can be rebuilt
except souls,
childhoods and truth.

One of them is the requirement for low temperature and durability from a material perspective that must be addressed when developing O-rings for new mobility. Abrasion optimized materials are required for technologies focusing on multiple tasks and also for different types of fluids in direct contact with the seal. There is also a demand for more robust compounds, more precision design and reduced tolerances to support lightweighting efforts. This means, new materials need to be developed to ensure seal integrity, operational performance and, critically, safety.
O-rings will continue to have an important role to play in a wide variety of system critical applications. For example, sensor applications as vehicles become more autonomous, electrified systems such as brake by wire technology and the electric parking brake (EPB) – all of which require O-rings to function correctly. The biggest advantage of having Datwyler as a co-engineering partner is that we can cover every step to secure the supply chain. We are involved across the board, with in-house experts in engineering, simulation, material and post-treatment – combined with global coverage. As such, we have the technical expertise and understanding of where the O-ring enters the equation and exactly what is required.
Datwyler's O-rings can be used in various applications and different powertrains.
Materials development and surface technologies
The formulation of rubber is as important as the mixing process itself and we can tune and control all of the parameters involved in the process – temperature, time and energy consumption. Another aspect we offer is a focus on the analytics of rubber. Rubber testing goes as a given in the industry but often it is tested via sheets in a laboratory. We have a testing technology that can check how our rubbers behave in actual applications. The aim is to deliver the best solution in the shortest time possible.
Our compounding is also a value added element. We need to mix the right ingredients in the right way to deliver the desired performance. That is why we have a continuous focus on the development of the compound as well as the mixing process to meet the best properties of the final part.
Surface technologies are also vitally important. Some parts may require special abrasion resistance, while others may need to be self-lubricating to aid with the mounting process. We fulfil all of these requirements by special surface treatments or coatings based on our internal know-how.
Whatever technological advances present themselves in the move to electrification, O-rings will certainly be a standard requirement in the component toolkit. However, as parameters change, the composition and functionality of those O-rings will become ever more complex.

Dr. Caroline Still Anderson was a physician considered the "second Harriet Tubman" because of her interest in education and improving the social and political conditions for other African-Americans. She completed high school at age fifteen and joined Oberlin College as the only Black student in her class. After the death of her first husband, she pursued and earned her medical degree. Dr. Still became a medical professional for African American families and a social reformer for those in Philadelphia. Today, she is recognized as one of the first African American female doctors in the state of Pennsylvania. She served as a leader, doctor and activist to many Americans, and her civic duties are forever honored.

09/09/2020 Legal Affairs and Human Rights
"The criminal law, civil law and human rights implications of the development and introduction of autonomous vehicles must be regulated in accordance with Council of Europe standards," said the Legal Affairs Committee, meeting by videoconference.
The report by Ziya Altunyaldiz (Turkey, NR), adopted by the committee, states that the circulation of semi-autonomous or autonomous vehicles may create a 'responsibility gap', where the human in the vehicle cannot be held liable for criminal acts. The committee therefore considers it necessary to adopt new approaches to apportioning criminal liability or alternatives to criminal liability.
As automated driving systems depend on sensitive personal data (for example on an individual's movements), the committee recommends striking a correct balance between data processing that is necessary for the safe operation of autonomous vehicles, and respect for and protection of the privacy of drivers and passengers. It also considers that ethical and regulatory standards applicable to artificial intelligence in general should also be applied to its use in autonomous vehicles.
Finally, according to the adopted text, the bodies responsible for regulating autonomous vehicles should pay particular attention to the application of artificial intelligence to automated driving systems and assess the impact of autonomous vehicle technology on human rights.

You'll need strong music theory knowledge to read and understand everything in Murphy's four articles. To see what they're like, you might start with the last one in the list below, as it's easily accessible through the journal Music Theory Online (link).
On the other hand, the effects of harmony that he talks about are easy to hear in the films he discusses.
The "triad pairs" that are presented in Murphy 2014a are abstract categories representing every possible pairing of major and minor triads. Here is a simple example: M2m in his notation is a major triad -- like C major in the examples below -- followed by a minor triad (D minor here) whose root is two half-steps higher (C to C# is one step, then C# to D is the second step). The effects created by use of any triad pair vary widely, of course. At (a) a relatively brief minor triad is tucked in-between two major triads, an incidental effect or neighbor chord. At (b) the two chords are equal in length, but there is a definite element of contrast, as the upper voices and bass move in opposite directions, following the requirements of older tonal voice-leading rules. At (c), on the other hand, the chords are spread out -- we hear more of each one -- and all the voices move in the same direction. Finally, at (d), we hear C first, then the chords are mingled and we either hear them as layered or as a complex chord over the C bass (it would be a C13 chord with a diatonic 11), then the C chord layer disappears.
