To say the past week has been hard is an understatement. (If you missed my news last week, then click here to read.) Part of my job at GT is helping to manage the church's social media accounts, and this past week has been the most intense season of work I've ever experienced.
Yesterday, before I left the office, I was looking for a Scripture verse to schedule for our Facebook page this morning and came across Isaiah 43:2: When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.
On Sunday, our executive Pastor, Scott, took the GT stage and preached a message about Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He talked about how when we go through fires, we don't have to stand along, we don't have to come out smelling like smoke, and that God shows up in new ways. So when I found the verse in Isaiah, it was an obvious choice for putting out there to our church body.
But as I reflected on that verse, something occurred to me. It doesn't say "if you walk through the fire," it says when.
It's not if you face tragedy, it's when.
It's not if you experience pain, it's when.
God isn't surprised by our tragedy. He's not surprised by our pain or our hurt. In fact, his Word says that we will walk through the fire, we will pass through the river.
I don't believe that fires that we walk through are of God. Our world is broken as a result of the fall, and so while we tarry to redeem a fallen Creation to it's Creator, the reality is that bad things happen. People make bad choices and there are consequences for those decisions, and the fact that we live in a fallen world means that we aren't always spared hardship and heartbreak. God doesn't make those bad things happen, but He does work through them to bring healing and hope.
My life over the past two years has been nothing short of a roller coaster. Between two cancer diagnosis's, health issues with both of my grandmothers, losing AJ's grandfather, a long distance relationship, and now everything that's happened with my church, there have been days when I've asked God when I get to step out of the flames.
But from time to time I realize that the God who promises to be with us in Isaiah 43, and who stood amongst the flames with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in Daniel 3, is the same God who will see us through even the greatest of tragedies.
And He does see us through. Isaiah 43 doesn't say "when you stand in the waters" or "when you hang out in the fire," it says through. We don't have to stay in the rivers and fires of our lives. We have to carry on and walk through.
God doesn't promise easy. He doesn't promise safe, or pain-free, or simple. But He promises to be there in the good times and the bad, and He promises to be with us and see us through.
We will face hardship. There will be fires to walk through. There will be rivers to pass through and there will be times when we feel like the flood waters are about to pull us under. But God promises to be there, to preserve us, and to not allow the flames to set us ablaze.
It feels disingenuous of me to end this post without talking about the hope we have in Jesus. The Bible is filled with the promises of God, and one of the greatest promises any of us can put our hope in is the eternal life found through faith in Christ. If you're reading this post, and you're not sure what you believe or you're walking through a fire right now and you need some hope, then, friend, I can't begin to describe to you how great God's love is for you. He wants to stand in that fire with you and carry you through.
Personally, I'm not sure how I would have made it through the past two years without my relationship with God. And I want you to know that relationship, too. If you'd like to start that relationship, but aren't sure how, I'm happy to tell you that it's simple. God is fully accessible to us through prayer, and all it takes is stopping, right now, to pray and tell Him about your belief in Him, your desire to know Him more, and your recognition that you're in need of a Savior. (Let me tell you a secret...we all are!)
Prayer doesn't have to be this mysterious thing, it's a conversation, so just talk to Him. If you pray that prayer today and you're looking for more direction, please email me at [email protected] because I would love to talk with you more about your decision! It's the most important one you'll ever make, and I'd be thrilled to walk through that with you.

Successful research projects depend on recruiting the best minds. That's why the National Institute on Aging (NIA) encourages undergraduates and young scientists to consider a career in research by offering training and education programs early in one's journey. One of the key goals of NIA's undergraduate programs is to support diversity in aging research. Supporting undergraduate research is not only a priority for NIA, but all the institutes, centers, and offices at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
NIA has been hosting a #ResearchDiversity Day X event in October for the past three years, promoting the different ways institutes, centers, and offices across NIH are committed to promoting research diversity. This year's #ResearchDiversity Day is focused on undergraduate programs that promote diversity in the research workforce. This event, held on October 21st, 2020 from 10:30 a.m. — 3:30 p.m. ET, will highlight students who have participated in NIH undergraduate training programs and will showcase their research and experiences, NIH training opportunities, and more!
We'll be using the hashtag #ResearchDiversity all day to share updates and will be joined by other institutes across NIH and organizational partners also interested in undergraduate research programs and workforce diversity. Please feel free to tweet throughout the day using the hashtag #ResearchDiversity.

The incredibly strong Roselle CC won a match at West Orange last night, 8-2.
IM Guillermo Estevez, Maraj Daftani, David Grasso, Ken Chieu, Cesar Sorto, Errol Singh, Ramon Garcia & Alejandro Guzman took full points for Roselle.
Harvey Susswain (via forfeit) & Harry Riff were the W. Orange victors.
Maybe the lop-sided triumph will convince the Roselle folks to put a team in the upcoming Garden State Chess League.

Insecurities are a real thing and even Johnny Love is not immune to them. Johnny always felt uncertain in the size department, so he picked up a penis pump for his pecker. Johnny got in his indoor teepee and started inflating his cock with all his might, but all that racket tipped his stepmom Natasha off. She peaked through the teepee and saw Johnny pumping his pecker. Johnny was humiliated but he asked his stepmom to size him up, so he could know once and for all. Natasha helped him get it a little bit harder so she could properly test it, for science, of course! Johnny's stepmom sucked his knob to get it big & hard and then used her fat, natural titties to jerk her big boy off. Johnny got real excited and fucked his stepmom hard, making her ripple and jiggle everywhere. He squeezed her massive boobs and choked her as he pounded away with his newly discovered big cock. Natasha must've orgasmed several times from her big boy's banging. Then it was Johnny's turn and he filled his stepmom's pussy up to the brim with a hot load. He figured she'd be mad about the creampie, but she was proud! How do you like that!?

The operatic version of Tennessee Williams' classic play, "A Streetcar Named Desire," will open the Townsend Opera's 2015 season, with a renowned director at the helm.
Brad Dalton will direct the company's January 2015 production of André Previn's "A Streetcar Named Desire." Dalton most recently directed the same production at Los Angeles Opera, Chicago Lyric Opera and Carnegie Hall.
"I am proud to welcome Brad to our community to direct the company premiere of "A Streetcar Named Desire," said Matthew Buckman, the general and artistic director of Townsend Opera. "He is widely recognized in the industry as the preeminent director of Streetcar, and has built his career around his work with this opera. He will be a wonderful resource for our company, and our community will be treated to a wonderful experience with this work that only Brad can provide. We are truly fortunate to have an artist like Brad working in our community."
Previn's version infuses a jazz score to Williams' Pulitzer Prize winning play, which tells the story of the cultural clash between Blanche DuBois, a Southern Belle with a past she is desperate to hide away and forget, and that of her brutish brother-in-law Stanley Kowalski. The play was made into a movie featuring Marlon Brando and his iconic bellow of "Stella."
Taking on the iconic roles of Blanche and Stanley are Carrie Hennessey and Dan Kempson. Hennessey, a soprano, earned a nomination in 2010 for Best Leading Actress in a Musical from the Bay Area Broadway World Awards. Kempson, a baritone, is a 2015 Grammy Award nominee for the title role in "L'orestie d'Eschyle."
The opera is sung in English.
The show will debut at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 23 at the Gallo Center for the Arts, with an additional performance set for 2 p.m. Jan. 25. Tickets range from $10 to $68. Tickets may be purchased online at Gallo Arts.org, by calling 338-2100, or at the Gallo Center ticket office, 1000 I Street in downtown Modesto.

There is no discord in the Democratic Labour Party (DLP).
This from former St Philip North Member of Parliament (MP), Michael Lashley, whose constituency branch hosted a joint meeting with the St Michael South Central and Christ Church East branches at the Princess Margaret Secondary School on Sunday night.
Speaking after the meeting that was not advertised on any of the DLP's official social media pages prior to its staging, Lashley said this was not an indication of any fracture in the party.
"I support whoever is president that is all I'm saying," he noted, adding the meeting was simply held as "part of the branch activities".
The former Minister of Transport and Works made the comments minutes after he told a packed and boisterous audience inside the Six Road, St Philip school auditorium that he would like a "meeting of the minds" with the party's executive and past ministers and MPs to develop strategies to take the Dems forward. He said many of the defeated candidates in the 2018 General Election have a role to play.
"We might not be candidates in the next election but the experience that we have, we can share that experience with you all. I came into politics in 2003 as an Opposition parliamentarian and then went straight into Government. So I lived both experiences . . . . And we have that experience; we understand what Opposition politics is all about," said the Queen's Counsel.
"We lived through it and the powers at George Street, it is my belief and we are not pushing them away, and they are not pushing us away either, but they could be a meeting of the minds to develop what strategy or what approach the Democratic Labour Party will take moving forward to the next election."
Lashley emphasised if he was not the DLP's candidate in the next election, that person would still receive his support. He said former Minister of Water Resource Management Dr David Estwick felt the same, and in these times, the party needed to draw on everyone who was willing to make a positive contribution.
"I gine talk straight, no first year law student can come and tell me how to run a case. If someone can make a contribution, have the knowledge and the expertise we can pull them. There might be some persons who never had the experience but can offer and make a contribution but you must welcome those people aboard too. By now I sense that the party is energised. I sense that the party is ready is to battle. I sense that the Democratic Labour Party, that we are now ready to sit in the rooms at George Street strategise, come on the streets and start to battle," Lashley added. (SDB Media)

Allied Forces Kicked Hitler's Nazi Army Out Of Paris 73 Years Ago Today
"That was the greatest and finest moment of my life," Adolf Hitler reportedly said after touring the newly Nazi-occupied French...
"That was the greatest and finest moment of my life," Adolf Hitler reportedly said after touring the newly Nazi-occupied French capital.
The day after Germany signed an armistice with France, Hitler and his cronies toured the Dôme des Invalides which holds Napoleon's tomb, the Paris opera house, Champs-Elysees, Arc de Triomphe, Sacre Coeur, and the Eiffel Tower on June 23, 1940.
In all, Hitler spent three hours in the "City of Light," but spent four years occupying northern France until Allied Forces liberated Paris, 73 years ago on Aug. 25, 1944.
"The Germans were driven from many strategic parts of the city by the combined onslaught of the French military and the fury of citizens fighting for their liberties," the Associated Press reports.

Adolf Hitler stands in front of the Eiffel Tower at Place du Trocadéro, on June 23, 1940
During Hitler's brief tour, he instructed friend and architect Albert Speer to take note of the city's design to recreate similar yet superior German buildings.
"Wasn't Paris beautiful?" Hitler reportedly asked Speer.
"But Berlin must be far more beautiful. When we are finished in Berlin, Paris will only be a shadow."
While sightseeing, Hitler also ordered the destruction of two French World War I monuments that reminded him of Germany's bitter defeat.

Resist the temptation of using what happened in Paris to create a worldwide police state!
The western world is fighting terrorist forces and bringing civilization to people in need of it- so they claim. But the west is rapidly moving towards a minutely managed totalitarianism, of which dictators like Assad and Netanyahu can but dream. Break security organizations before they are too big to fail!

DevOps.com spoke with Sacha Labourey, CEO, CloudBees about the upcoming Jenkins User Conference, its value, purpose, and focus, and about CD. It's fitting coming into the JUC to highlight Mr. Labourey's recent accomplishments. "Last year, we announced the Jenkins workflow, so the ability to build pipelines to create Continuous Delivery environments," says Labourey. Noting Jenkins' focus heretofore on CI and the notion of single jobs, Labourey offered that CI was not sophisticated enough to build those pipelines. "So the workflow enabling CD is receiving a lot of attention from the community and customers," concludes Labourey.
Moving on to more recent news, Labourey agrees that Jenkins' support now for Docker is leading the community to consider how it can better leverage Docker. "Or, if they are already using Docker, they want to see how they can streamline the process by which they are going to build those images, register those, test them and so on," says Labourey. These developments are key to understanding what customers and the DevOps-minded community will likely bring to the JUC, and what they can hope to take away from it.
Great Expectations
Labourey has great expectations for the JUC. "First, it's a nice party. A lot of those people discuss together at the forums or through other means and that's a great way to connect," says Labourey. The JUC will be one big multi-topic Jenkins / CD conversation between and among attendees and presenters. There's something to be said for face-to-face meetings despite the many unified communications channels and presence technologies available today for remote exchanges, collaborations, and white boarding.
Second, and if the Washington and London Jenkins UCs are any clue, the Santa Clara Conference will see more of what Labourey calls "traditional companies" sending teams to this event to learn new Jenkins features, how other companies applied best practices to solve problems, and what did and did not work for them.
Addressing the Community: the State of CI &CD
DevOps.com specifically asked Mr. Labourey if as we come into the conference he would briefly address the state of CI & CD. Labourey details the changing Jenkins audience and what waits in store for them.
"The historical users of Jenkins can have a pretty strong focus on Continuous Integration. That's how the project was born. That's how it became successful. I think we are seeing a new wave of users now, a fresh wave coming from a Continuous Delivery standpoint looking at the full lifecycle rather than just the development section of it. Sometimes I feel like Jenkins CI is the wrong name. It should be Jenkins CD now because Jenkins CI sends the wrong message. I hope a lot of people can spend quality time thinking about that and educating themselves about those new features because they're not just new features. It's Jenkins tomorrow. It's really the problems that Jenkins will have to solve tomorrow. It's like a new era for the Jenkins project. I really hope that people attending the conference can realize this." – Sacha Labourey, CEO, CloudBees.
The JUC keynote and events will mirror Labourey's statement in that the content, especially the presentations will include real use cases with innovative deployments and CD as well as technical discussions of how to master new features. "We see that people attending for their second year have done some quality work with Jenkins within their companies. They come back to present their experience in the form of a company use case or some extensions they've created," says Labourey.
A Vision for Jenkins and CD
"It's very important for everybody to realize the success of their company and also the success of Jenkins itself will happen if everybody makes the transition to CD and understands it," says Labourey. Labourey sees the JUC sessions as covering the new tools that make Jenkins the leader of CD. The JUC committee carefully selected presenters and topics in order to target that goal.
And since not everyone can attend a JUC, says Labourey, CloudBees as a company will be hiring people that will be much more active in educating the Jenkins community about this new era of Jenkins.

On January 30, 1815, English physician Sir William Jenner was born. Jenner is primarily known for having discovered the distinction between typhus and typhoid. While "typhoid" means "typhus-like", typhus and typhoid fever are distinct diseases caused by different genera of bacteria.
"How often have I seen in past days, in the single narrow chamber of the day-labourer's cottage, the father in the coffin, the mother in the sick-bed in muttering delirium, and nothing to relieve the desolation of the children but the devotion of some poor neighbour, who in too many cases paid the penalty of her kindness in becoming herself the victim of the same disorder."
— William Budd on Typhoid Fever, as quoted in [9]
William Jenner – Early Years
William Jenner was born in Chatham, North Kent, in South East England. He attended University College, London where he studied medicine. Jenner was further apprenticed to a surgeon in Marylebone. William Jenner was appointed surgeron to the Royal Maternity Charity, Finsbury Square while he continued to study. Jenner received his M.D. degree in 1844 and became a consultant. In 1859, William Jenner published a work titled On the Identity or Non-Identity of Typhoid and Typhus Fevers. Much of Jenner's success built on that work. Already in 1847 Jenner started to investigate cases of continued fever at the London Fever Hospital. These studies later enabled him to make the distinction between typhus and typhoid.
A Brief History of Typhus
The first reliable description of the disease appears in 1489 AD during the Spanish siege of Baza against the Moors during the War of Granada (1482–1492). These accounts include descriptions of fever; red spots over arms, back, and chest; attention deficit, progressing to delirium; and gangrenous sores and the associated smell of rotting flesh. During the siege, the Spaniards lost 3,000 men to enemy action, but an additional 17,000 died of typhus. Typhus was presumably known as Gaol Fever which appeared heavily during the English Civil War, the Thirty Years' War, and the Napoleonic Wars. During the year without summer in the early 19th century, a typhus epidemic killed thousands in Europe and in Canada, the typhus epidemic of 1847 killed more than 20.000 people from 1847 to 1848, mainly Irish immigrants in fever sheds and other forms of quarantine, who had contracted the disease aboard the crowded coffin ships in fleeing the Great Irish Famine.
.. and Typhoid Fever
The typhoid fever is believed to have killed one-third of the population of Athens, including their leader Pericles. Following the plaque back then, the power shifted from Athens to Sparta, ending the Golden Age of Pericles that had marked Athenian dominance in the Greek ancient world. In later years, it is assumed that the English colony of Jamestown, Virginia, died out from typhoid and that the fever killed more than 6.000 settlers in the New World between 1607 and 1624. During the American Civil War, 81.360 Union soldiers died of typhoid or dysentery, far more than died of battle wounds. In the late 19th century, the typhoid fever mortality rate in Chicago averaged 65 per 100.000 people a year. During the Spanish–American War, American troops were exposed to typhoid fever in stateside training camps and overseas, largely due to inadequate sanitation systems.
Causative Agent and Therapies
While both fevers were incredibly dangerous and contagious, typhoid fever is a bacterial infection due to Salmonella Typhi, and typhus is caused by Rickettsia bacteria. The first typhus vaccine was developed by the Polish zoologist Rudolf Weigl in the period between the two world wars and the first typhoid vaccine was developed by the British bacteriologist Almroth Edward Wright at the Army Medical School in Netley, Hampshire. It was first used in 1896.
Honors and Later Years
William Jenner's early work on typhus and typhoid had already let to his appointment as professor of pathological anatomy at University College as well as assistant physician to University College Hospital. In the years to come, William Jenner would further hold the offices of Holme professor of clinical medicine, professor of medicine, full physician, and consulting physician. He was elected President of the Epidemiological Society in 1866–1868, of the Pathological Society in 1873–1875 and of the Clinical Society in 1875. He was president of the Royal College of Physicians from 1881 to 1888 where he had delivered the Goulstonian Lectures in 1853. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (F.R.S.) in 1864 and received honorary degrees from the University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, and University of Edinburgh. In 1861 he was appointed Physician Extraordinary (Q.H.P.), and in 1862 Physician in Ordinary, to Queen Victoria, and in 1863 Physician in Ordinary to the Prince of Wales; he attended both the prince consort and the prince of Wales in their attacks of typhoid fever. In 1868 he was created a baronet.
William Jenner died, at Bishops Waltham, Hants, on 11 December 1898, having then retired from practice for eight years owing to failing health. From his marriage with Adela Adey in 1858 he had several children, including his eldest son Walter, who inherited him as second baronet on his death in 1898.

The University of Massachusetts is looking to join the Mid-American Conference for football beginning in 2011, according to various sources associated with the school:
↵↵↵Citing sources with the league and the school, the newspaper reported that MAC officials visited the campus and also Gillette Stadium -- home of the Patriots -- where some UMass home games could be played.
UMass is currently a member of the Football Championship Subdivision, formerly known as Division 1-AA. The FCS uses a playoff format to determine its champion, but that's obviously not the factor driving the Minutemen in this decision--they were national runners-up in 2006. The move to the MAC would mean a chance at a bowl game, but the shot at a national championship is slim to none.
↵In the MAC, UMass would join current Michigan schools Central Michigan (Mt. Pleasant), Western Michigan (Kalamazoo) and Eastern Michigan (Ypsilanti). The Minutemen also played the University of Michigan this past season, nearly beating the Wolverines in a 42-37 thriller at the Big House.
↵UMass would be the easternmost MAC school; Temple (Philadelphia, PA) currently holds that distinction. The Minutemen would remain in the Atlantic 10 conference in all other sports should they make the move, but would agree to play MAC schools in non-conference contests.

Everyone wants it – but it doesn't want anything. Farmer Bjorn (32 years old) distributed Monday evening "The farmer is looking for a wife" Celtan. His television adventure got off to a perfect start. According to RTL, Hesse has received the most orders this season.
There were five women for him at the Barn Festival. Then Bjorn invited the two to Farm Week with masseuse Danny (35) and project developer Katherine (34). The three were getting along so wonderfully that they even stayed in the barn together. The TV farmer was excited: "It was very, very funny. We drank a lot and made music." But he also emphasized, "But you also have to say that nothing happened. We were only three and we were friendly with each other."
Bjorn doesn't want to make a decision
The two ladies-in-waiting see that the three of them have struck up a friendship as a trio. "The question is how it goes now," says Catherine. "We actually came here to find love – and the three of us found it."
The decision is clearly difficult for TV growers. He reveals to his mother Bayat (59) that he thinks they are both equally great. I advised him to talk frankly about it with Catherine and Danny. Then he does it and explains to them, "I realized he's more friendly to me, which also explains why I didn't want to make a decision or couldn't make that decision."
If we got to know each other separately, more could have been developed
But the two women don't hold that against him. "We've also come to the decision that we're doing great as a trio because we're progressing so well," says Danny. It is clear to her: "We are parting a wonderful friendship."
On the other hand, Bjorn thinks more could have emerged: "If I had known them individually, perhaps more could have evolved." However, he does not regret his approach: "For me it is wonderful that I did not find the woman of my dreams." In this case, friendship made love impossible. They continued to spend the rest of the farm week together – as friends. (BSN)

Birthday is a pretty special occasion. Therefore, it is very important that you feel well and loved on this day. If you have decided to invite friends to this festival, then the friends should try to please you in a special way. Birthday cards are the perfect way to say goodbye to this world, to wish you all the love of the world and to show that you stick to it. Of course you can buy birthday cards from the shop. But it would be much more intresting if you make a map yourself. That way, you would show that you've spent a lot of time creating something unique. What are you waiting for? In the following article, we will give you some inspirational ideas on how to design birthday cards yourself. Have fun!
Designing birthday cards yourself is an exciting task
Designing birthday cards is fun and brings joy. Everyone can buy something ready from the shop. But it is much more exciting if you create something creative yourself with much love. In this way, you express not only your feelings, but also your personality. If you design your own birthday cards, you are welcome to let your creativity run wild by bringing your own original ideas.
Design custom birthday cards yourself
Many people today rely on the internet. Even in relation to the birthday cards. Yes, it's much quicker to pick a card and print it out. But many would pick and print the same cards. Why not make a traditional card on cardboard? This alternative is inexpensive and does not take so much time. On a paper card, you can bring all your ideas and decorate them with various materials. To stick a loving photo on the front is very original and brings with it nice emotions. If you can paint well, then draw something dear. For those who can not draw well, there are of course numerous scahblones on the internet for printing. And last but not least – do not ignore the text. Finding the right spell is not an easy task. The text should come from the heart. That could be a declaration of love or funny memories together.

Two new Transformers movies are in the works with one based on Beast Wars and the other set within the Bumblebee universe from Paramount.
It's reported the flicks are in active development with one script being written by James Vanderbilt and the other by Joby Harold.
Vanderbilt has written for Independence Day: Resurgence, The Amazing Spider-Man films, White House Down, Zodiac and more.
Harold is known for King Arthur: Legend of the Sword and Zack Snyder's upcoming zombie Netflix movie Army of the Dead and for producing John Wick 3 and Edge of Tomorrow.
Deadline reports the Vanderbilt movie is based on Beast Wars, which are robots that transform into robotic animals like Cheetor (Cheetah), Optimus Primal (Gorilla), Rhinox (Rhinoceros) and more, and that Vanderbilt has been working on the film since April, with the other from Harold set within the Bumblebee universe.
Paramount Revamping Transfomers in a big way
It is said that Paramount is revamping the franchise in a big way in which the new scripts and movies will present an opportunity to build out multiple storylines within the franchise.
It's said that the success of the recent Bumblebee movie is opening up a new opportunity to continue the franchise, with the studio now expanding the Transformers universe with the development of the two scripts.
Variety further notes that while no directors are attached to either script at the moment that Paramount considers the flicks a top priority and wants directors onboard each script as soon as possible.
Last year saw Transformers producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura confirmed new Transformers projects were in the works with a new movie being developed as part of their main Transformers franchise, and a Bumblebee sequel featuring Optimus Prime, but is unclear if these new scripts are the same projects.
It's also known that Michael Bay won't be back as Lorenzo di Bonaventura also confirmed Bay's exit from the franchise and that there will be no sequel to The Last Knight.
Transformers is huge for Paramount as it has grossed more than $4 billion worldwide over the course of five films which kicked off back in 2007.
A new shared universe has also been rumored that would feature Transformers, GI Joe and even the Power Rangers, as Hasbro owns all the IPs.

The right choice depends on your needs. Shared hosting suits small websites, while VPS provides more control. Dedicated hosting is for high-traffic sites, and cloud hosting offers scalability. WordPress hosting is ideal for WordPress users.

For web hosting in Mexico, having a data center in Mexico or in proximity to the United States guarantees robust connectivity and high-speed performance for your website.

A few weeks ago Om posted a piece on Apple's new laptop based on their M1 chip. It's one of those huge transitions that gives Apple a much higher starting point for desktop and laptop machines - machines that are still very important to many of us. They've been working on this for at least ten years as part of their smartphone silicon effort. People like Horace Dediu and Om (and even a non-technologist like me) have noted the progression of Apple silicon and wondered if it would be deadly to Intel. For me the biggest surprise has been the software effort - writing was all over the place for on the silicon side.
Zoom's emergence represents a pot that had been slowly warming for decades coming to a sudden boil with pandemic-fueled heat. It's frustrating with a terrible UX and UI, can be iffy on highly asymmetrical Internet connections that are slow upstream (cable modems for example), causes enormous frustration for many, but it's better than other tools and works well enough. Last week I described it as the modern equivalent of the <blink> markup in html during the early days of web browsers like Mosaic. People think it's cool at the time, but it will be laughably primitive down the road.
Remote video tools will get better and may change some habits. At the same time others are recognizing the importance of face to face. One university I work with just completed a survey that found 0% of 1600 students said they'd prefer in-class instruction to remote leaning when the pandemic quiets down. Already there's a lot of experimentation on campuses and in some businesses. An animation company saw productivity crater and is working on a better than Zoom suite of tools for internal use. The university I mentioned has found messaging apps like Discord excel in spaces that Zoom handles poorly. And perhaps we'll get better Internet connectivity. Price to performance in the US is abysmal, 5G is a largely marketing joke, cable modems are too asymmetrical (upstream is slow) to support serious video conferencing, and the digital divide has widened the already huge education gap. There's a lot to fix. It's like cycling - you need to sort out infrastructure and culture along with adding bikes.
I'm confident tool improvements will come but serious leaps need to be taken and I don't have great confidence in the major players. What I'm more worried about, at least in the US and Canada, is infrastructure. A friend is moving from Colorado to North Carolina and needs a very solid Internet connection. The only advice I could give was to find cities that offered good fiber connections that we're from telcos. That mostly narrowed it down to Ting, which left only a few cities. The movement of people from cities to rural and suburban areas is constrained by many forces - this is one.
On to something else..
I've argued that virtual reality wasn't very important and augmented reality meant much more than projecting information in your field of view - and that Apple had just introduced their first AR product.
In a way glasses are AR devices - they help you see more than you normally would. The same for microscopes, telescopes, stethoscopes, I have built bat detectors that let me augment my world by adding a bit of theirs, ... the list is long. But back to my comment about Apple. I have to admit I was wrong. Apple's first AR product was the Apple watch, although they didn't know it at the time. At first it was more of a fashion statement with a weird assortment of apps. After a few years they learned what it was for. People saw it as something for improving their health and fitness. Exercise, heart monitoring, and even the state of your body. Jutta has an app that interfaces with other hardware for diabetes management. We're talking about life altering AR. The area is growing rapidly and we won't even think of it as AR because we're used to its Hollywood manifestation. Of course Alexa, Siri and other voice driven interfaces are AR. They augment our local information space. Apple's EarPods are just a portal you wear. There's still a place to visual AR, but the pot's already boiling. AR is here now.
Of course we should think about how these things fit into our lives. That's a serious area I'm not terribly confident about - at least if tech is making the design choices.

As another amusing show in the form of the game, the new series entitled "Celebrity Name" has been broadcasted in the USA since 2014. According to the official data, the third season will be gladdening us come rain or shine but when remains questionable for today.
Making a short sketch
Grounded on the famous board game entitled "Identity Crisis", this amusing series for entertainment involves star guests trying to guess as many celebrity names as possible.
The broadcast of this not serious yet entertaining game is held on the CBS channel. The production is the matter of concern for the company called Coquette Productions that is of ownership to such actors as well as producers as David Arquette and Courtney Cox. These two also working as executives there together with Craig Ferguson, Thom Beers, Jennifer Mullin and Scott St. John. The first release of the series was held in September 2014. The second one was set in the previous autumn.
What are the concept and the host?
The participants of this show are stars who are to start guessing about the celebrity names, as well as fictional characters in a given timeframe. The host of this show is named Craig Ferguson.
The heroes of the latest season
Cycle 2 of this amusing game show included such celebrities as Weird Al Yankovic, Courtney Cox, Mario Lopez, Shannen Doherty, Lisa Kudrow, Kate Walsh, Candace Cameron Bure, Cat Deeley, Randy Jackson, Billy Bush, David Arquette, and some others.
How are ratings?
Frankly speaking, the series was accepted as something very much interesting and relaxing that is needed after a long hard-working day. So just laughing and amusing ourselves.
Thus, the ratings are high and the series renewal for the second chapter was not a great surprise for all of us. The sureness in that the series will be continued come rain or shine is growing in our hearts with each season coming to please us.
Catching up with the news
The renewal for the second place took place successfully. However, what is about the resumption for the third installment?
Here the plans of the producers coincide with those the fans of this show have. The third chapter will take place sometime in the future. But is this future near? Let's hold out hope that the premiere is around the corner.
The renewal was predicted also to be announced as the quiz is much popular among Americans, as well as beloved all over the world, though there is nothing in it but amusement and laughing. And this is reckoned to be enough to get traction in the production of the TV show with inviting more and more stars to the program. The decision of renewal was also inspired by the victory last year when Ferguson has obtained Emmy Award.
In any case, there is no info so far about the Celebrity Name Game season 3 release date. In order to get to know it at first hand, let's follow the news with very much patience.

Published in Crash #70
Poor old Monty is still running, years after the game was first released back in 1986. If I remember rightly, when Monty On The Run first came out we ran a poster offer with Gremlin, and the screen telling readers all about it is still at the beginning of the Kixx tape. Please don't write in asking for your poster and badge though, because they ran out three years ago!
Monty On The Run's still an immensely playable game. The platforms and ladders idea is one that will never die, and this is one of the best games to use it. Monty Mole, star of many an adventure (see CRASH Megatape, Issue 65), has been locked up in prison which doesn't please him much. Not being one for small spaces he decides to escape, but things are not so easy. There's a 21 piece freedom kit to help him along his way, but he's only allowed five objects from it. If the wrong five are selected he'll get so far in his escape and run into trouble! Poor Monty! Your quick thinking and arcade skills are tested to the full and the cartoon style aerobics are appealing. The game's packed with wide variety of colourful, animated nasties that move around each screen in a set pattern. It's best to spend some time studying the screen layout to try and find the best way through before you jump in feet first. The slightest touch of any nasty character and Monty is no more! If that wasn't hard enough there are such traps as broken lifts, crushing pistons and deadly water.
If you've never played Monty On The Run before you've got a real treat in store and hours of endless fun. Slightly aged, but still busting with playability.

CellMark Japan exhibited in CITE Japan 2021
Recently, CellMark Japan participated in the cosmetic exhibition CITE Japan 2021 in Yokohama, Japan to introduce the organic smart fragrances®, the Seqens Cosmetics Natural Ingredients, and other active minerals.
Due to the pandemic, the booth design was kept in minimal shape and the team did – of course – wear masks and kept a safe distance to the visitors. The urge for meeting customers in person again has grown during the last year, so finally being able to exhibit was a true joy for the CellMark Japan team.

The New Year – Let's Make It Better
The team here at Storytime would like to wish everyone a very happy and healthy New Year! January is a time to look at where we are and where we would like to be in the coming months. We all like to make resolutions – and one of the best resolutions is to try and be an even better human being.
We firmly believe that stories can give us excellent role models and inspiration, and here are a few of our favourites that remind us of qualities we would like to work on. Which of these qualities do you want more of?
Understanding and empathising with the way others are feeling is a very important part of building good relationships. A classic tale on this theme is The Friendly Lion (Storytime 59). Set in Roman times, it is the tale of a runaway slave who is trapped in a cave with a fearsome beast. Despite his fear, when the slave realises that the lion is in pain, he helps it and removes the thorn in its paw. This act of kindness is repaid much later… but we won't spoil the happy ending! Being aware of other's emotions and taking them into account can make the world a better place for all of us and it is something we should remember all year round!
In a time when social isolation, it is easy to neglect our relationships with other people outside our bubbles – but having and maintaining a good support network is vitally important, now more than ever! In our recent story, Hiro and the Storm (Storytime 72), a young hare has to flee an oncoming tropical storm and only manages it with the help of the friends he makes along the way. It shows us that our friends are those we can rely on for physical and emotional help. Is there someone you know that you haven't contacted in a while? Why not reach out to them and see how they are? A good chat will make you both reconnect and feel positive!
As well as friendship, generosity is a quality that makes life better for those around you, and often makes our lives richer, too. We often think of giving money when we talk about generosity, but it's equally important to can give our time, our attention and our skills! Our favourite story about generosity is The Selfish Giant (Storytime 28) – which happens to be written by one of our favourite writers of all time, Oscar Wilde. The titular giant keeps children out of his beautiful garden, but learns that his life and his garden become much more wonderful when he lets them in. Sharing makes life better, he learns that soon enough, and we couldn't agree more! Needless to say, we highly recommend it.
Whether we want to deal with difficult circumstances or challenges, courage is an essential quality! It can be stressful to get out of our comfort zones, but a brave spirit definitely helps. After all, every explorer and adventurer was once someone who was afraid, but was determined enough to overcome it! Storytime is full of stories of derring-do, but a favourite is the classic fairy tale of Jack the Giant-Killer (Storytime 45). When the giant Cormoran plunders his land, little Jack decides to face him, no matter that his foe is so much bigger than him. For this plucky hero, overcoming his fear is half the battle, and we can definitely learn something from him!
And lastly, the story Hansel and Gretel, our fairy tale from Storytime #13, demonstrates many of the qualities already mentioned, while also showing how important determination is to get us through! When Gretel and her brother are captured by the witch, they do not give up saving themselves and are very resourceful and determined to escape. Gretel shows great courage, and keeps her brother believing they will manage to escape. Despite any setbacks – it's the little girl determination and bright ideas that saves them. And of course, the love and friendship of brother and sister was crucial to keep them going. We can all learn something from them!
Look for qualities in stories that bring the best in the characters and help them to a happy ending. We hope they inspire your New Year resolutions! Wishing you courage, strength and determination in the year ahead!
With love, from the Storytime Team

Douglas Gollan, group president and editor-in-chief of Elite Traveler Media Group, outlines why segmenting the luxury market into unambiguous wealth cohorts is the way forward
The fog from the financial crisis may have cleared, but with economists still divided on the outlook for key luxury markets such as the United States, the likelihood that aspirational consumer spending on luxury products and services sees a significant rebound seems remote.
Jobless recovery and layoff fears continue to spook the Mass Affluent (consumers I define as having a Household Income of $100,000 to $500,000 per year) as they struggle with high expenses they took on during the glory years (big mortgages, big car payments, vacation homes) against the knowledge that a large portion of their Net Worth (house and stocks or 401k) is still substantially below where it was 36 months ago.
At the same time the newest Merrill Lynch Cap Gemini research – The World Wealth Report – shows Ultra High Net Worth Households (those with at least $30 million in investible assets) recovered most of
their losses from 2008 during 2009. With access to better investment advice than Main Street Affluents, these UHNWs in some cases have made significant gains in 2009 and 2010.
" UHNWs in some cases have made significant gains in 2009 and 2010 "
Stories such as the one about hedge funder manager David Tepper who personally took home $2.5 billion by buying Bank of America and Citigroup while others were running for the exits underscore that there is still a large amount of money out there just waiting to be enticed by amazing villas, exotic safaris, fine Swiss watches and attractive jewelry. Tepper's clients took home $7 billion.
In my conversations with various luxury brands, high-‐end sales are continuing. However, there is a common theme that I continue to hear: Making the sales has become more difficult, with a longer sales cycle and more work.
What is missing from the stories such as the one about Mr. Tepper is the instant big hits are fewer and farther apart. This means that the head of household worth say $150 million is more likely to have the viewpoint that in three years his or her Net Worth will climb to say $165 million whereas in 2007 that same person may well have thought they were months away from becoming a billionaire.
So while these consumers are extremely rich by any standards, the sun has set on the days of being able to count on consumers who would come in your store or hotel and literally throw money at your cash register.
Cue the theme for 2011: If you are a CEO or Head of Marketing for a luxury provider company, you need to aim higher, get more focused and work harder to target Ultra High Net Worth Consumers, particularly in the Americas and Europe.
" Consider Hiring a Director of UHNW Marketing "
Here I have a few top line recommendations:
- First and most importantly, clearly segment all marketing, media, sales and events opportunities for 2011 into two groups: Ultra High Net Worth or Mass Affluent/Aspirational
- Fish where the fish are: Ultra High Net Worth consumers have the money to move your sales needle. Shift marketing and sales resources to UHNW consumers. Focus on consumers who have a Household Income of $1 million + or at least $10 million + in investible assets. These consumers have the money to return your marketing investment.
- Big Hat, No Cattle: Who still has money and who lost it? How do you find the money? A good way to find consumers who still have money today is to focus on private jet travelers and users/owners of superyachts. The cost to fly by private jet is $5,000 to $10,000 per hour meaning you are talking to consumers who as you are talking to them are spending $15,000 from a trip from London to Rome or $30,000 to go from Dallas to New York return. Consumers chartering super-‐yachts or mega-‐yachts (those vessels at least 75 feet or more) are spending when all is said and done well over $100,000 for a one week charter while owners are covering well over a $1 million is annual operating costs. By focusing your marketing, media, sales and events at these consumers you will increase your awareness and contacts with consumers who have the money to buy your products or services.
- Create a true Ultra High Net Worth Strategy: This means not only print advertising to make sure your brand is in the consideration set and top of mind, but product and collateral placement in places such as private jet terminals, mailings and emails to private jet and yacht owners, an UHNW web strategy such as specialized microsites (think of it as an online version of the private salon), events and sponsorships in exclusive venues where UHNWs go such as Art Basel Miami, the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show and Monaco Boat Show.
- Spend extra time doing due diligence to make sure events will truly have UHNWs and not just be filled with good looking people there to drink your champagne. Make publishers or event organizers show you hard data such as Audit Statements that prove they are actually delivering your message to UHNW consumers.
- It's the Company you Keep: Just as you pay attention to location of your stores and hotels, pay attention to the company your ads or sponsorships will be alongside in magazines, websites or at events. Seeing your store on Madison Avenue or Rodeo Drive means something to consumers in a positive way, just as seeing your ad between economy cars, diet soda or three start hotel groups will work against you.
- Consider Hiring a Director of UHNW Marketing: While many companies have armies of folks focused on web marketing in many cases UHNW marketing means having a few excellent salespeople who are left to fend for themselves. Now is a good time to give these elite salespeople more support with targeted media, database and direct marketing support to help make sure their prospects already have your company in mind when they make contact.
Lastly, it will take a little bit more elbow grease. With the wealthy today being harder to sell, it means a comprehensive multi-‐platform marketing strategy that keeps you top of mind with consumers who have money to spend means that your company will be well placed to increase your share of their spending.

Fox just announced its fall and mid-season slates this week, and judging from its explosive first trailer, 24: Legacy might just be the biggest of the bunch. Here, war vet Eric Carter (Straight Outta Compton's Corey Hawkins) is living life in witness protection after spearheading the operation that killed a known terrorist. However, when the terror cell starts hunting him and his team down, Carter must team up with former Counter Terrorist Unit director Rebecca Ingram (Miranda Otto) to stop them.
24: Legacy will be joined by the likes of the upcoming Rocky Horror Picture Show remake, starring Orange Is the New Black's Laverne Cox, as well as a TV revamps of Lethal Weapon and The Exorcist. 24 isn't the only classic Fox series making a return either; Prison Break is also making a mid-season debut next year. Check out the trailer below:

Rated **** 1/2 by the ALL MUSIC GUIDE, this straightahead burner pits two high-energy "percussionists" (remember, the piano is REALLY a percussive instrument) puttin' the pots on. Twisting, turning, hoppin 'n' poppin' and even introspective, too.
