All of you dedicated Mario lovers out there probably already know, but this year is apparently the 30th anniversary of what some might consider the most important video game ever: Super Mario Bros. Even if you don't particular enjoy the game, you still have to admit that it's certainly had a massive impact on the world of video games–and kept Nintendo solvent through so, so, so many sequels and variations.
Nintendo has put a site specifically celebrating the pearl anniversary of the mustachioed hero's namesake game, but some Internet sleuths have discovered a secret lurking somewhere on the website! Check out the screenshot above to see if it has any hints, take a guess and then click below to see if you got it right…
Okay, maybe that was a bit misleading to tell you to look at the screen shot of Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. 30th Anniversary website, since the secret isn't actually visible anywhere on the site. You'll actually have to look at the source code to find it! But once you do, this is what will greet you!
▼"I'm in your tubes, squashing your turtles."
Nintendo Super Mario Bros. 30th Anniversary
And for a slightly larger version…
▼"It's-a me, ASCII-art Mario!"
Nintendo Super Mario Bros. 30th Anniversary
Of course, Nintendo is hardly the first company to hide something in their source code. There are probably little secrets hidden all over the Internet, just waiting to be discovered. And it's pretty easy to find them too. With Chrome, just press F12, and if you're using Firefox, just right-click on a blank area of any website and click "View Page Source."
If you're wondering what else is out there, here are a few that we were able to dig up.
▼This symbol was found in the source code for the Kingdom Hearts 3 website.
▼These creepy images were found in the Lotte × HKT48 source code.
▼It's a bit tame, but it seems that even Tumblr has secrets!
This one will require a bit of explanation. This is from the website First Step, which was aimed at increasing the number of voters in Japan. As you can see in the source code on the right, there's a secret letter directed to either Kyari Pamyupamyu…or anyone who knows her. Apparently they wanted her to get involved with their campaign, since she had just turned 20 (the age you can start voting in Japan) and obviously has a lot of influence on other 20-year-olds. We're guessing they never got an email from her…
▼And, finally, a personal favorite, the pterodactyl from the Oatmeal.
We bet there are a lot more source code secrets out there, so if you have to know of one, be sure to share in the comments. And don't forget to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Super Mario Bros. on September 13!

October 5th, 2018
September 13th marked a quarter of a century since the signing of the Oslo Accords on the White House Lawn. When the accords were signed, Israel agreed to the "land for peace" formulation, wherein the Israelis were to give up something very real and tangible – strategic territory – in exchange for empty words and promises.
The "land for peace" paradigm has sorely failed. Israel's efforts towards peace since Olso, including the Hebron Agreement, the Wye River Accords, Taba, the Camp David Summit, and the painful, unilateral withdrawal from the Gaza Strip in 2005, were only met with increased terrorism. The Palestinian Authority (PA) regularly incites its people to violence, glorifies "martyrs," and financially rewards Palestinian terrorists and their families. The PA still continues to refuse to recognize Israel's right to exist and encourages its people to kill Jews.
After 25 years, it is finally time to re-examine the premises of Oslo and the "land for peace" formula, as well as explore alternative solutions for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with guest speakers Dr. Daniel Pipes and Professor Efraim Inbar.
Help us work to ensure that our policymakers and the public receive the EMET- the Truth.

Apple Online Store Vulnerability Exposed PINs of T-Mobile Customers
BuzzFeed News reports that there was a flaw in Apple's online store that exposed over 72 million of T-Mobile customer's account PINs.
The vulnerability was discovered by security researchers Phobia and Nicholas "Convict" Ceraolo, who also found a similar flaw in the website for phone insurance company Asurion that exposed AT&T account PINs.
For Asurion, hackers with an AT&T customer's wireless number could gain access to a separate form that asked for the account holder's passcode. Again, no limit was imposed on attempts, allowing hackers to infinitely attempt at the passcode. As with the vulnerability from Apple, other carriers had a limit on the amount of attempts could be made.
Both Apple and Asurion fixed the website flaws that left the PINs vulnerable after learning about them from BuzzFeed News.

Just because it's 'vegan', it doesn't necessarily mean it's healthier.
Simon Hill is an expert on Chris Hemsworth's new health and fitness app Centr. Follow him on Instagram @plant_proof and check out the Centr app @centrfit. If you're looking for some delicious plant-based recipes and advice, make sure to check out Chris Hemsworth's brand new health and wellness program Centr.
Have you gone vegan expecting to improve your health and drop some pounds - only to find that you're actually gaining weight? Despair not! While a large body of research has proven that on average vegans have a lower percentage of body fat compared to others, the truth is, if you are replacing the animal protein and fats with large amounts of refined carbohydrates, processed oils, vegan junk food and smoothies packed with nut butters, you're unlikely to see any benefits on the scale.
Here are four reasons you may be gaining weight on a vegan diet, and helpful tips you can implement to make sure your vegan diet is optimal for your health and your weight.
#1: You're eating an abundance of vegan junk food
With the rise in popularity of a vegan diet, food manufacturers have worked hard to keep up: more than ever before, food products that contain no animal products are slowly but surely filling up shelves in supermarkets. While it's great to see the power consumers have in shifting food manufacturers to a more conscious food environment, the truth is that these products often have just as much added sugar, fat or refined carbohydrates, and calories as their conventional counterpart. A vegan brownie may seem like a healthier choice, but it could potentially have just as many calories, sugar and fat as the version with butter and eggs.
The solution
It's important to understand that a vegan diet is not necessarily synonymous with a whole food plant-based diet, which instead focuses on unrefined grains, vegetables, fruits and plant proteins while shying away from added sugars, saturated fat and refined carbohydrates. Not only do these foods come packed with fibre, nutrients and vitamins, they also tend to be significantly less calorie dense compared to animal foods, although there are some exceptions. Make sure your diet is mostly made up of whole food plant-based options that are lower in calories and will keep you feeling full for longer, rather than mock meats and vegan treats.
How to go vegan safely
Thinking about going vegan? Maintain your essential nutrients by making these easy swaps
#2: Your portion control has gone out the window
Going vegan can trick us into believing that just because a food contains no animal products, it must have little or no calories. It is not uncommon for some of us to think that because plant-based foods are health-promoting, we can eat unlimited amounts of nuts, grains, seeds and sweet potatoes. In reality, some vegan foods (although incredibly healthy) such as nuts and seeds, nut butters, dates, coconut yogurt, avocado, and grains, can be highly calorie dense. It's important to recognize that just because a food is vegan, it is not a free pass to overindulge.
The solution
If you're eating many calorie dense foods throughout the day, it's important to recognize that while they may be healthy, this does not mean they are low-calorie foods. Therefore, if you're struggling with losing weight, it's best to eat calorie-dense plant-based foods in moderation, and to always keep in mind the importance of balanced portion sizes.
#3: You're cooking with a lot of oil
Cooking with oil can really make food more flavoursome in a way that cooking with water sometimes just can't compete with. However, it's important to keep in mind that at 9 calories per gram, fats and oils have a high-calorie density, so liberal use in cooking and salad dressings can quickly add up. Foods that provide healthy fats include nuts, seeds, avocados and olives, with olive oil being one of the healthiest oils that provide antioxidants as well as flavour. Fat-soluble vitamins are also important, so we shouldn't be trying to cut fat out of a vegan eating plan, but just be aware that over-consumption can push calorie intake up pretty quickly.
The solution
If you're someone who often cooks with an abundance of oil, this might be the culprit behind your weight gain. Try using as little oil as possible and be mindful that with every tablespoon of oil used, you're adding 120 calories to your daily calorie intake. If you are using oil, opt for extra virgin olive oil and stick to between 1-2 tsp of oil per person for cooking or dressings where necessary. When it comes to dressings, try using alternate ingredients like avocado, coconut milk, yoghurt, miso or tahini, mixed with a range of vinegars or lemon juice.
#4: You're sipping calorie-dense smoothies (and not feeling full afterwards)
Smoothies are a quick and convenient way of delivering key nutrients to people who need easy starts to their busy mornings. Unlike juicing, blending fruits and vegetables preserves the original fibre and phytonutrients making it a healthier and more filling option. As a result, they are already some of our most popular recipes on Centr.
However, it's important to be mindful of how many calories you may actually be sipping on. For example, there is a stark difference in calories between a green smoothie with spinach, berries and plant milk compared to a peanut butter-laden banana smoothie with oats and dates, which may have just as many calories as a complete meal. Because the calories in a smoothie can be consumed so quickly, they could potentially undermine our body's ability to register how many calories we've ingested and can lead to overeating. Overall, it's always best to make your own, and not rely on bottled smoothies meaning you can also avoid processed sugars and fats in quantities you can't control.
The solution
If you enjoy incorporating smoothies during your day as a snack, make sure you're aware of how many calories you're consuming. If you are going to consume a calorie-dense smoothie, make sure to sip slowly so that your body has the time to register how many calories you're drinking. Where possible, try and chew your food as this will encourage slower consumption and mindful eating - subsequently helping to prevent over-consumption of calories.
Overall, the reason you might be gaining weight comes down to the basic principles of energy balance. If you consume more calories than you are burning, you are in a position to gain weight. That's why when I was creating some of the plant-based recipes for Chris Hemsworth's health and fitness app Centr, I worked hard to ensure that the recipes would be easy-to-make nutrient-dense meals with whole food ingredients that would keep users full and satisfied throughout the day. If you want to lose weight, ultimately it comes down to reducing your caloric intake below your daily energy requirements, performing more exercise, or a combination of both.

The Endeavour sailed at 07:00 on 30th January and proceeded to service the SmartBuoy at Dowsing. During the deployment the stern thruster failed but the deployment was completed successfully. Afterwards the ship sailed north collecting water samples en-route. The Tyne sites were missed out in an effort to reach the Firth of Forth waverider before the weather deteriorated. The ship arrived at the Forth site at approx 09:30 but unfortunately it was not possible to manoeuvre the ship without the stern thrusters so the waverider was not serviced. After discussion with the shore it was decided to dock in the Tyne to allow engineers to fix the thrusters problem. We docked at 21:30 on the 31st Jan. The engineers were on-board by 08:00 on the 1st Feb and the problem identified and the pilot booked for 16:15. We could not sail as planned as the port was shut but finally got away at 22:00.
Cefas Endeavour arrived at the West Gabbard SmartBuoy site and deployed the new SmartBuoy at 17:00 on 2nd Feb. Water samples were collected afterwards via CTD rosette before proceeding to the South Knock waverider. The waverider was recovered and replaced with a new one before a new guard buoy was deployed. Endeavour went down the Thames to the Warp. At first light on the 3rd Feb the Warp SmartBuoy was recovered and serviced. Water samples were collected via the CTD rosette. With clear skies above the ship made her way into the English Channel stopping at the South Varne for a CTD water sample. In the evening Selsey Bill NMMP site was also visited. The weather forecast for the remainder of the cruise was appalling and after discussion with the master the cruise was aborted. Endeavour docked in Portland at approx 10:00 on 4th Feb.

King James Version (KJV)
10:33 But a certain Samaritan came where he was - It was admirably well judged to represent the distress on the side of the Jew, and the mercy on that of the Samaritan. For the case being thus proposed, self interest would make the very scribe sensible, how amiable such a conduct was, and would lay him open to our Lord's inference. Had it been put the other way, prejudice might more easily have interposed, before the heart could have been affected.
Lu 10:33 A certain Samaritan. The hereditary enemy of the Jews; despised and hated by the latter. "The Jews and Samaritans have no dealings" (Joh 4:9). If any man had excuse for passing the wounded Jew by it was the Samaritan. But, unlike the priest and Levite, he had compassion. His compassion leads to action, to self-denial, and inconvenience. He dresses the man's wounds, sets him on his own beast, carries him to the inn, and when he left, left money for his care. For ancient inns, see PNT "Lu 2:7".

January 19 – March 3, 2018
Opening Reception January 19 @ 9pm
Where: Kettle River Brewing Co. 731 Baillie Ave
In partnership with the Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art, Kettle River Brewing provides an informal, alternative exhibition space for emerging contemporary artists to exhibit works.
Existing along the walls of social space, Strange Company (2017) is a body of collaged, life-sized post-human forms that appear seated at the tables where the public will join them, unbound by gallery etiquette and provoking engagement. Spliced male/female, living/dead, human/animal, race, arthropod, and botanical images destabilize the normative white human individual and create a majority that deem the viewer "the other" or "the outsider", regardless of race, sex, or orientation. Strange Company provides not only abnormal companionship in a social setting, but also company in the sense of theatrical players of a visual narrative, offering a renewed formulation of the normative human.
Applying mixed media techniques to found images including National Geographic magazines, Rachel Mercer's work relies on skilled collage-based manipulations and alterations to create compositions and interpretations of the original images. Mercer's work is informed by background in psychology and often contains strong themes of relationship and identity that lead the viewer to examine her images as narratives.

The Daily WRAG will return to your inbox on Monday. Until then, have a great weekend.
The Urban Institute has released a new interactive map that shows how neighborhoods across the country have been shaped by income inequality between 1990 and 2010. According to data from the Neighborhood Change Database used to develop the map, exclusionary housing practices have largely kept low-income families in disadvantaged neighborhoods that are very difficult to escape. (City Lab, 6/29)
Nationwide, the top 10 percent of income earners live apart from the bottom 10 percent of earners. From 1990 through 2010, the neighborhoods where the wealthiest Americans live have remained relatively fixed. Meanwhile, tracts where the poorest Americans live have shifted and expanded over time—and grown poorer, too.
Exclusionary and discriminatory housing policies are one of the main tools that wealthy Americans have used to maintain wealthy neighborhoods. These bastions of prosperity enable them to consolidate, protect, and pass on their wealth.

REGION | The Brookings Institution offers a profile of how young adults in the Washington region are faring within the vital areas of education, employment, and income. The analysis uses Census data on young adults between the ages of 18 to 24. (Brookings, 6/30)

REDLANDS, Calif. — The University of La Verne softball team swept the Redlands Bulldogs on the road Saturday afternoon to win their third straight SCIAC Championships and 10th in program history.
Sienna Kendricks hit a two-run homer in the opener to give the Leopards the outright title. The Leopards swept Whittier College yesterday to clinch at least a share of the title. La Verne beat the Bulldogs 4-1 in the ninth inning in game two to complete the sweep.
Season Impact: La Verne finishes the regular season 26-14 and 21-7 in SCIAC play. The Leopards will host the four-team SCIAC Postseason Tournament from May 4-6 as the top seed.
More at Stake: With one major goal now accomplished, the Leopards set their eyes on winning the SCIAC Postseason Tournament for the second year in a row to earn the conference's automatic qualifying berth to the NCAA Tournament.
For the second game in a row, the Leopards' power at the plate scored them a close win. Justice Borden got on base after getting hit by a pitch. Kendricks stepped up next and homed to give her squad the 2-0 lead.
Whittier put one run on the board in the bottom half of the inning but that was as close as they would get.
Jiana Rojo improved her record in the circle to 10-6, striking out four and allowing just three hits in seven innings of work.
Carly Condon went 2-3 at the plate.
Game Two: La Verne 4, Redlands 1
Borden played the hero for La Verne for the second game in a row, hitting a two-run home run that scored Michelle Deguzman to put the Leopards up 3-1 in the ninth.
Carly Condon bunted in Rachel Ogata later in the inning to extend the Leopards' lead.
Tauney Mack hit her first career home run in the second to give her squad the opening 1-0 lead.

Ashley Caro stepped in for three innings of relief to pick up her third win of the year.

Scottish optical group Duncan & Todd has announced a £15m investment that will enable it to "accelerate" its growth strategy.
The funding was secured from the Scottish arm of market private equity investor, LDC. As part of the agreement, the opticians existing backer, BGF, will give up its minority stake.
As a result of the backing, Duncan & Todd will embark on the next stage of its growth strategy, which it explained will involve identifying potential acquisitions in order to expand its geographical footprint, as well as a roll out of complementary healthcare services, such as audiology.

Published at Wednesday, July 17th, 2019 - 11:49:08 AM. Wedding Dresses. By Arvin Roth.
But what do you do when you just can't seem to find 'the one' for you? If you are tall and slim, you could wear just about anything, and still look wonderful. Sadly it is not so easy when you are either short, hourglass shaped, or even pear shaped, or over a size 16 (uk).
Find the right wedding dress length. Yes, wedding gowns can be short or long depending on the type of ceremony you're having and where you're planning on having it. There's a very basic rule when it comes to choosing the perfect wedding dress length, and it's to base your dress length on how formal the ceremony is. If you're having a formal ceremony, then floor-length is the way to go. If it's an ultra-formal wedding, then you may want to add a cathedral train to your dress. For informal weddings, you can choose the hemline that flatters you best. Short, or at least shorter wedding dresses are advised for casual and outdoor weddings for practical reasons. You don't want to get mud, twigs, leaves or sand on your floor-length designer wedding dress, right?

Austin has been busy growing up.
He currently is boasting 2.5 teeth. Right at the 5 month mark, his bottom teeth started to show – the left one popped first. Yeah, breastfeeding became an extreme sport…
Then now, at 7.5 months, his front teeth also started to show – his left one is practically all out and the white of the right is showing through. He wants to chew on everything in sight, especially on straps. Purse straps, bra straps, apron straps…you name it, he's bitten and held onto it for dear life!
His meals are sort of boring, to me; butternut squash [we gave him so much of this in the first two weeks – his first food – that his eyes got all yellow. I thought he was jaundiced! My work colleague, a nutritionist, assured me that it was due to the malenge (squash) ingestion…phew. Fixed that by stopping the malenge and giving Irish potatoes, peas with pear (tip from AskLeahRenee.com mommy, Leah)]. He likes everything, I am super glad. Even peas. I tried them and gagged. More power to him.
I need more exciting recipes for him since he is approaching 8 months and can't be stuck on puree for much longer. Any tips?

The Killers premiered a new song when they played a show in Canada last night.
During the band's show at Ontario's Caesars Windsor, The Killers played a new song which mainly featured Brandon Flowers at the piano. They also covered Interpol single 'Obstacle 1'. The new song can be seen here via fansite Can It Be The Way It Was.
The show was the first since bassist Mark Stoermer announced last week that he had quit touring to focus on the release of his new solo album 'Dark Arts' and "educational opportunities". His replacement is Jake Blanton, who previously played when Stoermer was unable to tour the Far East in 2013. He also played on Flowers' solo album 'Flamingo'.
Stoermer will, however, still be involved in the recording of The Killers' new album, their first since 'Battle Born' in 2012. The band are currently writing the album and have yet to fully get involved in production.
Talking to Loaded last November, Flowers said that the new album may involve a new sound for the band. He said: ""('Battle Born' producer) Flood asked me, 'Which Killers are you going to be this time?' I told him that maybe there's a Killers we haven't been yet. That's really exciting. What I want is to take the experience of playing over a thousand shows and mix that with the enthusiasm we had making our first album, 'Hot Fuss'."

Dear Readers,
I come baring a heavy heart, filled with apologetic statements. I realize each and every one of you eagerly awaits a new entry every single morning. When nothing comes, you then enter a downward spiral of an infinite abyss. I shouldn't make excuses, but that's exactly what I am about to do.
Why have I not been writing? It's complicated. But, to make a long story short, I'm having trouble with my editor based out of London, England. Since I only believe in the highest quality of reporting possible, I have employed a staff of hundreds to ensure that my rigorous standards are being met each and every single day. Although I am the boss, they tend to put me in my place. Thus, revision after revision has been sent to London, yet for some reason my writings do not get approved. I continuously receive an email that accurately describes how not a single fact stated could be verified… meaning, I'm full of b.s..
It's been a hard couple of weeks dealing with this type of rejection. I have about six different essays in the making, but until my editor approves, they cannot be published.
Horrible, I know.
How have I been dealing with my rejection? Several facets I have recently undertaken…
1. Puppies. I use to hate these things, but when I feel down, I run to the puppy store and hold them. No matter how horrible of a person I may be, they look at me and still love me. This is mostly in part because they are too dumb to realize anything else, but hey, I still feel the love.
2. Tequila suicides, minus the tequila. I have actively pursued the idea of opening a bar, and one drink idea I created upon a few years back is a tequila suicide. A snort of salt, a squeeze of lime in the eye, and a shot of the worst tequila I can find. When I receive another rejection letter, I partake in a tequila suicide, minus the tequila.
3. Karaoke. I have been blessed with an amazing voice (yet for some reason, no one else seems to agree), thus, I go to the bar and sing my heart out. I tend to favor Celine Dion, The Power of Love. It reminds me that there is hope, and I am not truly a pathetic waste of oxygen.
Alright, I'm sorry, but I lied. I know it's hard to believe, but I cannot afford to employ a staff of hundreds. The real reason nothing has recently been published is that I have been extremely busy. Between a mixture of teaching, studying, and spending time with my girlfriend, it just has not been feasible.
Ehhh… once again, that's a lie. I may be busy (sometimes), I also find myself sitting in my room, staring out of my window and enjoying the view. Maybe that is what has been distracting me?
Feel free to write my editors and tell them how pathetic they are.
Thank you very much.
With all the love in the world,

Fall Planting at Lake Washington Blvd: South SeattleJoin EarthCorps and the Green Seattle Partnership as we begin forest restoration along Lake Washington Blvd South! This forest parallels Lake Washington, and has great views of both the lake and Seward Park. Our work in 2017 will involve removing a lot of English Ivy and some Blackberry to get ready to plant in the fall.
The BasicsEarthCorps supplies gloves, tools, water and snack bars. We will teach you everything you need to know about tool use, safety, forest health, and the importance of the work you will be doing. No experience necessary, just come ready to learn something new! Be sure to sign in at registration when you arrive.
This video may give you a better idea of what to expect.

What will volunteers be doing at the event?While the exact tasks can vary, our projects focus on improving the forests and parks in our local cities. Healthy and thriving forests are vital to our community because they absorb and filter rain water, produce clean oxygen, provide living spaces for wildlife, and create a place for people to connect with the outdoors.
In order to help create healthy forests, the work can include:
- Removing aggressive weeds (like English Ivy or Himalayan Blackberry)
- Maintaining areas where these weeds have been removed (weeding or spreading mulch)
- Planting trees and shrubs during the rainy season (often ~Oct.-Feb.)

Disney's DIS is well known among investors for its ambition to dominate the rapidly-growing video streaming market. The company is hell-bent on making the upcoming Disney+ streaming service a hit and thus, is now contemplating to get rid of non-core businesses that might mar its path to success.
Per a Bloomberg report, Disney is planning to divest its video game, FoxNext, which was part of the entertainment assets it got from the 21st Century Fox acquisition. Other assets the company might think of divesting includes a stake in the sports betting site, DraftKings Inc.
Notably, as required by the regulators, Disney sold the 22 regional sports networks (RSNs) it got from the Fox acquisition. Sinclair Broadcasting SBGI bought 21 of these RSNs, while a group of investors, including Sinclair and Amazon, bought the big YES Network (Yankees Entertainment and Sports Network).
Disney's shares have returned 24.2% year to date compared with the industry's growth of 30%.
Year-to-date Performance
Video Games: A Hard Nut to Crack for Disney
FoxNext develops free-to-play mobile games and primarily generates revenues from in-game purchases. However, Disney is reluctant to re-enter the highly competitive mobile gaming market, currently crowded by the likes of Zynga, Electronic Arts EA, Activision ATVI division King Digital, Supercell, Tencent, Nintendo and others.
Disney's earlier foray into the gaming space had not been fruitful. The company discontinued its Infinity line of toys and games, game studios and online game Club Penguin in 2016 due to lack of profitability.
However, its strategy of licensing IPs, including characters and brands, to video game developers like EA (set to launch Star Wars game in November) has driven its top line.
In the last reported quarter, Parks, Experiences and Products segment revenues (32.5% of revenues) increased 7.2% year over year to $6.58 billion.
Disney's Streaming Investments to Hurt Profitability
Disney is set to launch (Nov 12) Disney+ at $6.99 a month and a Disney+, ESPN+ and Hulu bundle for $12.99 a month. The company is banking on its latest box-office hits like Avengers: Endgame to attract subscribers. Disney aims to add 12 million subscribers by 2020-end.
Per a CNET article, Disney+ will offer users four simultaneous streams, including videos with 4K, UHD and HD picture quality, and seven different user profiles at no extra cost.
However, Disney's profitability is expected to be hurt by investments regarding the consolidation of Hulu, and ongoing investments in ESPN+ and Disney+.
For fourth-quarter fiscal 2019, Disney expects the Direct-to-consumer & International segment to report roughly $900 million in operating losses, which represents an increase of almost $560 million year over year.
Disney currently has a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell).

The anticipated premiere of American Horror Story: Asylum is here. The FX thriller returns with a season two, after what it felt like an eternity. Season two is set in 1964 and starts Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, Zachary Quinto, James Cromwell, and Joseph Fiennes. With a return in another unforgettable performance as Sister Jude. "When we launched the show last year, we kept quiet about the closed-ended nature of the show because we didn't want to tip off the audience that the characters were not going to survive, sad co-creator and executive producer Murphy.
As we all know the premiere of Ryan Murphy's drama begins in the present day, with hot-and-bothered newlyweds Adam Levine and Jenna Dewan-Tatum paying a visit to the long-shuttered asylum, Briarcliff Manor, as part of their "haunted honeymoon tour"—a decision they'd no doubt give an arm to take back. Also we're not even in a haunted Los Angeles house anymore, but instead the Massachusetts asylums of Briarcliff.
As Leo (Maroon 5's Adam Levine) and Teresa (Jenna Dewan -Tatum) who are newlyweds and choose to spend their honeymoon with the corridors of the now-abandoned Briarcliff. Set foot inside, all hell breaks lose. "It is absolutely terrifying. Very gruesome. And what's great about the fact that it's on FX is that you can go too far. You can do really unorthodox, crazy things that people are going to talk about."
Briarcliff Manor was bought by the Catholic Church in 1963 and transformed into a sanitarium. Monsignor Timothy O'Hara (Joseph Fiennes) and the formidable Sister Jude (Jessica Lange) are in charge and Jude definitely has the hoots for her boss.
Kit (Evan Peters) and Lana (Sarah Paulson) are both outsiders committed to Briarcliff, against their will. They're surrounded by a motley crew of inmates, including a sex addict (Chloë Sevigny,) a degenerate bully (Mark Consuelos,) and the enigmatic Grace (Lizzie Brocheré,) who develops a friendship with Kit.
Briarcliff residents definitely do not want an appointment with James Cromwell's Dr. Arden. Says the actor, "He does torture and I think even winds up killing a number of patients." Dr. Arthur Arden—a man of science who regularly clashes with Lange's woman of faith, the Oscar nominee runs Briarwood's medical unit. He may or may have something to do with the mysterious disappearance of several patients, but there's one thing we know for sure: The dude is beyond creepy. And he only gets creepier in the second episode.
Let's just say that, in the flash of a few blinding lights, the guy goes from being a happily-married gas station attendant to an accused serial killer nicknamed "Bloody Face," who's primed to be this season's Big Bad, thanks to his penchant for decapitating women while—gulp—wearing a mask made of human flesh.

The Chihuahua wonders never cease
January 31, 2012 § 1 Comment
Mama often wonders, "if a Cheerio falls in the forest, will the Chihuahua hear it." Of course I know this because as I've explained, I can read her mind.
Oh, my dear Mama, the answer is quite simple, really, even for human comprehension. Of course I do with my keen ultrasonic hearing, the latest and greatest in technology provided by nature. Move over, sharkies, there is a new highly developed, exceptionally equipped and capable species on this planet, and I'm here to stay!
It is with that same technology that I know if an intruder even thinks of coming close to Casa Chanel uninvited. Not one cucaracha dare defy me!
It is how I know when and where every food particle lands in my territory (kitchen.) That coupled with my keen olfactory talents and my better-than-any-overblown-elephant's memory is why I always know when there is a runaway Cheerio under the couch.
But more importantly, my amazing hearing is how I can detect the slightest disruption the very second your heart skips a beat because you are sad and missing the kids. After all, that is my ultimate purpose in life, to be here for you when you need love, always.
Now don't argue! I know you may not remember, but you will move the couch because I am never wrong about my Cheerios. And I am also always hungry!

DID was shortlisted amongst 3 other firms and was chosen in the end to handle our 4-room resale flat. Despite a small-scale renovation, Eddie displayed full professionalism and handled the entire project with 100% commitment. He worked closely with us and often provides valuable opinions and suggestions that make this renovation a smooth one. We felt very lucky to meet him. We definitely would strongly recommend him to all our friends and relatives who wish to build their dream house too in the future.
Thank you Leon for the hard work and effort put in doing up our new house. This is our first nest and naturally we are anxious about the work progress and workmanship. Thanks for the patience to explain a lot of thing to us. Haha. Overall, it was a great work done by you and your team and we would not hesitate to refer you to anyone who is looking to have a proper renovation done up. Thumbs up!
We are honoured to have Eddie as our designer and manager as he truly showcased his strengths – style, creativity and yet not forgetting a sense of humour. His commitment in ensuring proper work flow and quality workmanship really touches us. Although DID is not the cheapest that we have found, we strongly believed that we have gotten more than what we are paying for. There are some minor areas that DID can be improved on, but generally we are glad that we have made the right choice. Thank you Eddie.
We are quite sceptical at first in engaging a female designer as we always thought that when comes to technical aspect, she may not be that good. Not to mention, renovation is more of a male working environment. Our perception changed totally when we met Melissa. She proved that she can do equally well, if not better than some of the male IDs that we came across. Decisive and firm, she guided us through the renovation smoothly and professionally. We are very happy and blessed to meet her and once again, thank you for your effort and patience. By the way, my daughter loves the bracelet that you bought for her!

During a recent visit to Iowa — smack in the middle of corn country — the President announced a policy change that would direct the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to waive Clean Air Act rules and permit the year-round sale of E15 (gasoline with 15-percent ethanol). Many stakeholders — consumer and taxpayer groups, elected officials, environmental organizations, food producers and boaters, bikers and engine manufacturers — have joined America's refiners in voicing opposition to this one-sided, illegal move. Read what they have to say about this lopsided "deal:
- Nan Swift, National Taxpayers Union "The administration's plan to waive the E15 RVP restriction and permit year-round E15 sales is merely a backdoor 'fix' to artificially boost sales and justify future government-imposed increases to the ethanol mandate. This could generate enormous new costs for consumers and taxpayers. Misfueling of small engines, lower gas mileage, and engine damage are a direct hit on the family budget. Similarly, due to the high cost of retrofitting gas stations for sale of E15, the USDA will most likely continue to funnel millions in taxpayer dollars in matching-grants for blender-pumps. Consumers have repeatedly made it clear that they do not want more ethanol in their fuel. We need a truly free market, not more government manipulation."
- David Kennedy, BoatUS "The proposal to permit sale of a fuel (E15) that is both harmful and illegal to use in marine engines during the peak summer boating season is a major concern for boat. The nation's 11 million recreational boaters want fuel that is safe for their boats, however, this proposed EPA policy change to the Clean Air Act will increase the chances that a boater could inadvertently put engine-killing E15 into their tank."
- David French, National Council of Chain Restaurants "Expanding the sale of E15 ethanol to year-round won't make up for the harm corn growers are suffering from the administration's trade war. Pumping even more ethanol into Americans' gas tanks is a bad idea for consumers and the environment. There's a reason blends of ethanol higher than 10% are only allowed to be sold during cooler months – because higher blends like E15 are bad for air quality in warmer temperatures. If the administration wants to help corn growers in Iowa, they should end the trade war with China and restore export markets for America's farmers."
- Matt Gruhn, The Marine Retailers Association of the Americas "The dealers of MRAA have seen firsthand the damage that the decreasing availability of ethanol-free gasoline has caused to consumers. The President's plan to introduce more ethanol into American's transportation fuel supply will… exacerbate the issue of misfueling at the pump. Instead of implementing a plan that poses numerous dangers to the American consumer, President Trump should take initiative to call for reforming the broken Renewable Fuel standard."
- Collin O'Mara, National Wildlife Federation "It's simply not legal under the Clean Air Act to increase the year-round sale of E15 gasoline. The Trump Administration's overreach underscores the urgent need for Congress to craft meaningful bipartisan reform of the corn ethanol mandate to protect clean water, public health, and wildlife habitat."
- Ryan Alexander, Taxpayers for Common Sense "E15 costs taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars through subsidies for special blender pumps and fueling infrastructure, and harms small engines and older vehicles. Now the administration wants to throw salt on the wound by expanding 15-percent ethanol blend sales year-round. Instead of making matters worse, market-distorting ethanol subsidies and costly federal biofuels mandates should be scaled back, not expanded."
- Thom Dammrich, National Marine Manufacturers Association President Trump's decision to proceed with year-round E15 sales places bad policy on top of bad policy. In addition to being legally dubious, this action will put millions of American consumers at greater risk of misfueling, so a small, politically important group can benefit. The President should abandon this irresponsible proposal and instead work with Congress on reforming the Renewable Fuel standard to deliver changes that result in better outcomes for all Americans."
- Jonathan Lewis, Clean Air Task Force "The administration cannot authorize year-round E15 sales without Congress's approval, and Congress should not give that approval — at least not until safeguards are in place to protect the owners of older cars and other vulnerable engines, [and] not until the impact of E15 on ozone formation is adequately analyzed."
- Outdoor Power Equipment Institute "Outdoor power equipment is not designed, built or warrantied to run on fuel containing 15-percent ethanol. It can damage or destroy equipment… As the fuels marketplace has changed, you can no longer count on being able to put the same fuel in your mower that you also use in your car or truck."
- American Motorcyclist Association "None of the estimated 22 million motorcycles and ATVs in use in this country is certified by the EPA to use fuel containing more than 10 percent ethanol by volume. Allowing additional E15 sales increases the risk of inadvertent misfueling by motorcyclists."
- Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf "President Trump needs to do the right thing for Pennsylvania's refinery workers and stop only catering to major ethanol-producing states. Since last year, I have been asking the Trump administration to come to the aid of Pennsylvania refineries that are burdened by unfair rules which make it impossible for them to compete. The Trump Administration's failure to act puts thousands of good jobs and middle-class families in Pennsylvania at risk."
- Nick Loris, economist, Heritage Foundation "The Trump administration's intention to authorize year-round sale of gasoline blended with a 15 percent ethanol mixture, announced Monday, perpetuates bad energy policy, both economically and environmentally."
- Congressman Gene Green, Democrat, Texas "I have long opposed adoption of E15, and I oppose this decision by the administration. E15 is not a suitable fuel for all vehicles, including boats, older vehicles, ATV's, and motorcycles. I'm concerned consumers will pay more over time because of wear and tear on their vehicles and I believe that increased use of ethanol can contribute to more pollution during the summer months"
- Michael Lynch, President of Strategic Energy and Economic Research, Inc. "At a campaign rally in Iowa, President Trump indicated that he intends to support requiring a blend of 15% ethanol in the U.S. gasoline supply… It's roughly the same as if he went to Maine and promised that the government would require all hamburgers to contain 15% lobster meat."

Darien to launch 'pollinator pathway'
DARIEN — The bees and butterflies that pass through Darien will soon have an easier way of it thanks to a collaboration between various groups in town.
The Darien Nature Center, the Garden Club of Darien, the Gardener's Center and Florist and the Darien Library hope to help the environment by establishing a "Pollinator Pathway" across Darien.
Darien Pollinator Pathway Committee Co-Chairwoman Deepika Saksena said the concept was started by H2H (Hudson to Housatonic), which works to identify areas of conservation value and creates areas for pollinators — animals that fertilize plants.
"Pollinators are in big trouble and not just in Connecticut," Saksena said. "We're talking about birds, butterflies, bees and certain insects. All of these are pollinators."
The cause of the pollinators' troubles are three-fold, she said. First, natural environments of pollinators have been developed into business offices and houses. Second, the use of pesticides has affected pollinators. Third, there are now an increasing number of invasive plants in pollinators' habitats.
"It's over time but plants not native to our area manage to kill off the native plants," Saksena said.
The pollinator pathway would provide a pesticide-free and native plant habitat on both public and private properties. Saksena said while some already-satisfactory areas have been identified, the pathway would connect them together.
Several other towns have already taken the initiative, creating pathways in their communities. In Fairfield County, Wilton was the first, but Norwalk, New Canaan, Ridgefield and Westport soon followed.
"A lot of these towns are ending in Darien because we are right on the shore," Saksena said. "So what we decided was to give Darien its own Pollinator Pathway."
To raise awareness for pollinators and the initiative in Darien, there are already plans for the new year, she added. On March 7 Douglas Tallamy, author of "Bringing Nature Home," will stop at the Darien Library to talk about the environment. Also, the group of town residents behind the initiative hope to plant some native plants in several public spaces in the spring.
"We hope to identify these areas and have a public event," Saksena said. "We want residents to see the demo garden and how beautiful native plants are."
Saksena said they hope to get neighbors in the community involved. By ending the use of pesticides and planting one or two native plants in their garden, residents can help their local pollinators.
"This way we can make safe habitats for pollinators," she said.
