Ten Second Takeaway
The famous Keventers brand {known for their delicious ice creams and shakes} has now opened up shop in Select Citywalk and DLF Promenade!
Let's give you some history…
For those of you not in the know, Keventers is a vintage dairy brand that dates back to 1925. Edward Keventers, a Swedish dairy technologist, decided to bring his product to India and first established his dairy plant in Chanakyapuri in the 1970's. The dairy plant was later acquired by the Dalmia Group. Today, Agastya Mihir Dalmia, along with Sohrab Sitaram {the brains behind Tabularasa, Chi, Hungry Monkey and Zingo Star} and Aman Arora are revamping and reintroducing Keventers with a new look and feel.
What's in a Flavour?
Along with their classic flavours like Tutti Frutti, Keventers is bringing fun contemporary flavours like a Melting Roses Milkshake, Mint Oreo Crumble and Hulk's Bulk. Fresh fruit toppings, rich dark oreo cookies, a smattering of peanut butter, and fresh mint are also on the must-taste list.
A quick decor recap…
And to add to this wave of nostalgia, the outlet has been designed keeping in mind the old world colonial charm that Delhi is so famous for, with vintage phones and typewriters, quirky glass bottles, and candy stripe designs.
Where: Ground Floor, Select Citywalk Mall, Saket and The Food Court, DLF Promenade

Wetlands are the areas that act as a natural sponge to halt and slowly release the flood water, rain, groundwater and snow melt. They play an important function in our global ecosystem. Wetlands reduce the degree of flooding and also decreases soil erosion by stopping the flow of sediments. Wetlands are termed as "Earth Kidneys" and "Biological Supermarkets" because of their capacity to hold harmful pollutants and rapid flow of flooding (Ming, Xian-guo, Lin-shu, Li-juan, & Shouzheng, 2007).
Wetlands play a critical role in:
– slow release of stored water to prevent flooding
– acting as a filter to stop the flow of contaminants and sediments
– Providing a natural habitat to wildlife
– Improving water quality
Graphic source: 2005: WaterScape Bowen Island, Turner R.J.W. et al, Geological Survey of Canada Miscellaneous Report 88
Simmy and myself were dicussing impacts of wetland destruction and found how natural wetlands and their restoration helped in mitigating flood in Texas and Florida as well as around the whole world. Texas is a city which had experienced the most deaths and loss due to flooding as compare to any other state (Brody, Zahran, Highfield, Grover, & Vedlitz, 2008). Urbanization of the city, rooftops, carparks led to the destruction and removal of many wetlands. Brody et al studied that 3.15 inches of rainfall in October 1997 in Texas caused USD 15,000 of reported damage in De Witt County, where only five wetland-altering permits were allowed. The scientists found that four years later, when there were 17 wetland alteration were granted, and the same amount of rainfall caused USD 150,000 of damage (Broody et al, 2008).
How wetlands reduce flooding and erosion:
Wetlands not only prevents flooding but also protect the crops from water logging. They also prevent droughts and improves water quality. Water quality is basically improved by the removal of nitrates via denitrification (Mitsch & Gossilink, 2000). The ecosystem, dead or living plants and vegetation slows down the water currents, increase the rate of transpiration and shade water (Mitsch & Gossilink, 2000).Protecting wetlands also help cities and municipalities to save their revenue and resources on flooding.
A study was done in Smith Creek watershed which is 60 km from the city of Yorkton in southeastern Saskatchewan to show the direct link between wetlands and flooding. It was found that the wetlands area in this watershed has decreased from 24% to 11% between 1958 and 2008. They also found that in 2011, the flood levels reduced by one third due to the complete restoration of the wetlands but the flooding increased by 78% when there was a drainage. This shows how wetlands act a reservoir when there is a change from winter snowmelt to summer dry weather.
The figure above shows how wetland restoration reduces flooding in Smith Creek Yorkton.
Wetlands protection from storm and floods:
Coral reefs, mangroves, tidal flats and deltas are coastal wetlands that provides a physical barrier against high tidal waves and storms to reduce the water's height and speed of flow. Protection of wetland vegetation, which includes mangroves and saltmarshes bind the shoreline together and reduce soil erosion from heavy storms and high oceanic tides. It was seen in Chignecto Harbour Ramsar Site in Nova Scotia that saltmarshes and vegetation absorb the excess water flow and protecting the surrounding habitat and wildlife environment from severe destruction.
Saltmarshes, in Chignecto Harbour Ramsar Site in Nova Scotia, help to absorb and slow floodwaters
How to protect and restore wetlands:
Wetlands play a huge role in maintaining water cycle in our global system. They can be restored through consistent monitoring and assessment. There should be strict restrictions on waste dumping in wetlands and their buffers, as well as by reducing the discharge of untreated storm water into natural wetlands.There is a technique called "living shoreline" which uses the plant roots for soil stabilization to protect waterfront property and also to stabilize riverbanks shore line.
Wetlands can be protected through land use planing and using aquatic buffers as mentioned in 'Adopting watershed tools to protect wetlands' article by Karen Cappiella. Expansion of wetland buffers and connecting them with their habits also protects the wetlands. They can also be restored through better site designs which minimizes the different wetlands crossing and interference into each other.

Great efforts by clubs at state surf championships
LAST weekend was a pretty good one for yours truly.
The Falcons won over Wynnum by a point, which was a gritty display and I got to watch some great lifesaving events over three days in the senior state lifesaving titles held at Maroochydore and Mooloolaba.
Add to that a couple of upsets in the local league as well, which puts plenty of interest in the outcomes over the next few weeks, which is good for footy.
So what did I take out of last weekend's state lifesaving titles?
Well, I was really happy for our club at Alex and how they pushed Gold Coast juggernaut Northcliffe all weekend in the total point score.
It was a pretty solid effort by our youngsters, plus of course our masters competitors who won the title for the third year in a row.
As my father used to say self-praise is no recommendation but it would be remiss of me not to wrap up Alex's Lani Pallister for an amazing carnival.
The rising 15-year-old once again put all and sundry on notice with her dominant surf swimming display against her peers and also some of the high profile ironwomen in the country.
In saying that, Maroochydore Surf Club's 16-year-old Hayden Cotter was just as impressive with his surf swimming as well.
So after three days I left the carnival impressed. There were icons of the sport there but I will probably remember the two youngsters ahead of everything else I witnessed.
Nearly as impressive were the efforts of the Maroochydore club and their band of volunteers who had to shift the carnival to Mooloolaba because of the swell for Friday and then shift it back to Maroochydore for water events on Saturday and Sunday while boats and beach stayed at Mooloolaba on Saturday and then they had to shift the boats back to Alex for Sunday.
What a great effort. No whinging, just getting the job done with some help from Mooloolaba as well and it just shows how many good people are in the lifesaving movement, particularly when I take into account the youth titles at Alex two weeks prior and the work they did as well.
Of course Surf Life Saving Queensland staff and the wonderful officials shouldn't be forgotten as well.
The volunteers on Sunday were that good that the only one who wasn't impressed was Daily sports editor Steele Taylor, who left his thongs beside the officials' tent next to the barricades and went down to interview some athletes and came back after the last event and everything was packed up and gone, including his thongs. I came across him trying to find them and he was muttering something about, "Shannon Eckstein wasn't even dry after that last race but my thongs were gone plus any sign of a carnival being on."
Lastly, but certainly not least I have to mention the awesome chicken burgers. From the weekend I will remember Lani, Hayden and a good chicken burger.
In the league this weekend, the Sunshine Coast Falcons will have to aim up against PNG Hunters at the stadium at 3pm Sunday while tomorrow Beerwah hosts the Swans in three grades from 3pm, Caboolture takes on Caloundra in three grades from 2pm, it's Nambour against Gympie in A grade, Mary Valley in division two and Bribie in under 18 from 1.30pm and it's Noosa versus Kawana in division one and under 18 while they play Coolum in division two plus Kawana plays Bribie in division two as well with the first game at 1.30pm, at Christensen Oval at Cooroy.

How does a UC GPA differ from my Urban GPA?
What is Naviance/Family Connection?
In the winter of Junior year, each student and parent/guardian will receive an individual account for Naviance Family Connection. Naviance is a web-based program that assists families in searching, researching, organizing and applying to college. Naviance Family Connection provides statistics on applications, decisions and matriculation of Urban students.
What is Early Admission / Early Action?
Some colleges have an admissions process under which a student applies by an early deadline and is notified of the decision early.
Under an Early Decision program, a student makes a binding commitment to a first choice institution where, if admitted, the student is bound to enroll and must withdraw all other applications.
Early Action is an early application/notification program that is not binding; an accepted student is not committed to make a decision until the Candidates Reply Date of May 1.
Many early applications are due by November 1 and students are notified by mid December. The advantages/disadvantages of applying under an Early Admissions program vary by college and by student. Your College Counselor will discuss these options with you throughout the process.
When are college applications due?
Application deadlines vary. Early Decision and Early Action deadlines are often November 1. November 30 is the deadline for the University of California and California State University applications. The most common deadline for private colleges is January 1. No matter what the deadline is, we strongly advise students to complete all applications by the end of Winter Break.

Latest Research
A fair percentage of patients with celiac disease will continue to have long-term gastrointestinal symptoms even when they adhere to a totally gluten free diet.
A 12-week low carbohydrate, high fat (LCHF) diet improves metabolic health outcomes over a control diet (high-carbohydrate, low-fat diet) in a randomized controlled trial with overweight defense force personnel. According to this study, this LCHF dietary approach shows promise for short-term weight loss and improved metabolic health outcome conditions compared with mainstream recommendations.
Thyroid autoantibodies were significantly decreased by vitamin D replacement treatment in patients with euthyroid Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Also, HDL cholesterol concentrations improved in the euthyroid Hashimoto group after treatment.
Oral supplementation with high-dose vitamin D3 at 10,000 IU daily significantly improved serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels in patients with Crohn's disease in remission. Larger studies/clinical trials using high-dose vitamin D3 for treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases are warranted.
Emerging data show that about 30% of people with schizophrenia have elevated antigliadin antibodies of the IgG type, representing a possible subgroup of schizophrenia patients with immune involvement. A trial of Gluten Free diet is warranted in neuro conditions.

Sometimes, I see a thread on the Twitter Machine that just stops me cold in my tracks and makes me say, yes!
Deedra Hill Aboud is a lawyer, blogger, and candidate for US Senate representing Arizona. I met her shortly after the election in 2016 and have been following her on social media since. When she threw her hat into the ring to replace Jeff Flake in the US Senate, I thought, "okay…." A year later, I'm completely on board with Team Deedra, and the following Twitter thread is a perfect example of why.
In these tumultuous times, we need leaders who are thoughtful, who make mature choices and have considered opinions. We have let the inmates run the asylum far too long, and it's lovely to see some actual grown-ups venturing into leadership roles. I am including the full text of the thread here with Deedra's permission. If you like what you read, I hope you will take a moment to learn more about her campaign.
We do not just desire to make a difference; we desire to see the difference. Making a difference requires work, investment, and planning for the short-term and the long-term – keeping an eye out for unintended consequences to avoid. Instant gratification is rare for real change.
If you really want to make a difference, opportunities are everywhere. Pick a passion.If your passion is children, look to homeless, to orphans, to the disadvantaged. A multitude of local organizations exist that can point you to the needs – and there are many.If your passion is women's rights, the opportunities exist from shelters to politics – direct help to advocacy. Women (ultimately impacting children) are suffering. Shelter funding is on the decline. Women's healthcare and reproductive freedom is under attack.If your passion is poverty, we have a lot of it. Food pantries are struggling. Homelessness is on the rise. Mental health funding is a disgrace.If those ideas are too much for you, just be a good person. Help people when you see people need help. When a co-worker is picked-on, stand up for them or report it to human resources. If you witness a wrong, correct it. Bullies can smell a victim. Stand up to bullies.People watch What Would You Do? & are astounded at the inaction of people witnessing injustices or wrong behavior. But we have become a society of "mind your own business," "do not make waves," & "someone else will do something,""It's not my problem,""don't be a hero."The people who stand up for others are now the exception. Everyone wants to be a hero, but few want to do what it takes. To the people that need help, anyone can be a hero. The story of the "Star Fish Man" comes to mind.If you want to positively impact the world, you do not have to move to a far-off land; you just have to engage in the place where you live. Start with your own field of influence. Just start.

Domestic Violence A Haunting Concern For Local Judge
February 8, 2018
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Judge Michael Gallagher is not an easily shaken man. With 25 years of law enforcement experience, he was fully prepared to take on his role a district court judge in 2015 for District Court 07-1-01 in Bensalem.
And while Judge Gallagher has seen his fair share of first-class misdemeanors and felonies — "a lot of drug charges and DUIs"– he admitted that the cases that most affect him are those of domestic violence: "For example, you live in your house, you're married with your husband or boyfriend, and you get in a fight. Your boyfriend does bodily damage to you. Then it comes time for court, and you are back together, [so] you don't come to court. No victim, no crime."
It's a situation victims find themselves in all too often. The public education nonprofit Domestic Violence Roundtable notes that victims stay with or return to abusers for many different reasons, ranging from the emotional to the situational. Some believe their partner may change their ways, or feel guilty about their perceived failure. Others might have to stay because they rely on the abuser economically; they have been isolated socially from support systems; or they may be bound by cultural or religious traditions.
The Roundtable noted that victims in suburbs like Bucks have a unique set of difficulties, since these are typically "communities of affluence and privilege." Suburban victims may feel embarrassed to seek help because of their education level, social status, or income bracket denotes their success in life. They may also have "system-phobia", a resistance to ask for help from police and social service agencies.
No matter where a victim is from, going to court, or even expressing the desire to leave, can cause victims to lose their lives. Bucks County domestic violence shelter A Woman's Place reported that 75 percent of serious assaults and homicides occur after a victim has left the abuser or made their intentions to leave known. In fact, 102 people were killed in domestic-violence incidents in the state during 2016, according to the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Domestic Violence (PCADV). Four of those victims were from Bucks County.
One such tragedy has enabled the courts to help more victims escape that tragic fate. In 2012, an Illinois judge ruled that testimony of witnesses could be used in a domestic violence murder trial. This decision, known as the Richter Ruling, is about the validity of hearsay in domestic violence cases. Judge Gallagher explained: "If you don't show up, the officer [who responded] can actually come in and testify" about the incident and the extent of the victim's injuries, he stated.
Another way the courts try to help survivors is by establishing a "no contact clause" for couples involved in domestic incidents: this means the abuser is not allowed to contact, visit, or live with the victim. The judge admitted that "sometimes it creates a hardship if there's kids," but in proceedings he'll order a safe alternative, such as couples meeting and exchange custody at the local police station.
Even with these tools, how can survivors get help from the courts if they don't know what might happen there? Judge Gallagher broke down the two most frequent outcomes:
●Within the Courts
Couples entering the case start at the district court. "At our level here in district court, we just see if there's enough evidence to go to trial," he noted. "We listen to facts and if we think a crime is committed and a person was involved it moves forward to the common pleas court." He can also make recommendations for the common pleas court to consider, such as if there should be distance between the individuals involved. At common pleas court, an alleged abuser can be entered into the criminal court, where they can be sentenced to jail.
●Counseling Options
If the incident was less severe, such as a push or a shove that did not result in injury, the judge can recommend counseling. In these instances, the judge typically recommends anger management for the perpetrator. After the mandated 60 days, the victims can come to court and confirm if things have or haven't improved. No matter the couple's feelings after this period, they will have to come back to see the judge. "If you and your husband were in a fight and I were to arraign you, the law says you have to see a judge if it's domestic violence so we can determine if it's safe to release you," Judge Gallagher stated.
There are organizations that can help victims navigate the legal and other aspects of escaping abuse. In Bucks County, the Judge noted, two organizations for such resources are A Woman's Place (800-220-8116, 24-hour hotline) and the Network of Victim Assistance, or NOVA (1-800-675-6900, 24-hour hotline). Here at Bucks CCC, you can also reach out to counseling services at 215-968-8189 or [email protected]

My idea came of two, that are jogging harmoniously together.
What evolved out of this was very special to me :it was to realize the sincere friendship between the two of them, which in my experience can not very often be found. I had the chance recently to experience such close being together during my stay in Kauai.This painting is indeed the expression of it! The lightful shimmering of the wood mirrors the easiness and freshness of the friendship.

Marsden Giolas Releases NEW "Red Lining" Single!
Musician/artist Marsden Giolas turns in another fantastic single for Garden House Records. This time his music takes a confident dip into the movie scoring and soundtrack pool. "Red Lining" reminds us of some of John Carpenter's best score work and seemingly at once harkens back to 80's Detroit techno. On the contrast, "Fog Dance" takes on a deeper U.K. dubstep influence that we can't get enough of and we highly recommend it for chilled mixes. ENJOY!

I apologize right away to Sarah as I totally stole this idea from your livejournal post. 🙂 Lists are fun though and very cathartic for a stressful day like this one was. Thanks for the inspiration! Don't hate me!
quickly… the first 5 episodes of any TV show that pop in your head as being the funniest episodes ever, what would they be?
1. Smile Time – Angel, Season 5. Also known as the puppet episode. A puppet vampire. What more do you want?
2. The One Where No One's Ready – Friends Season 3. Best episode they ever did. Just the six of them getting ready for a dinner at Ross' work, done in real time. Very funny.
3. The Mary Tyler Moore Show when the clown dies. I forget the character's name, but he gets trampled by an elephant or something comical like that and everyone makes fun of it. Mary gets all outraged about people making fun of a recently deceased person but then can't stop laughing at the funeral. I LOVED that show!
4. Special Olympics – South Park. It is so wrong in so many ways that I can't help but watch it every time it is on.
5. Blank Page – Strangers With Candy, Season Two. Jerri learns to read. Contains the immortal lines:
"Jerri, what does V-I-C-T-O-R-Y spell?"
"Fandango? Hobo Camp? Ho-hobo camp?"
"You are a big, fat, stupid, zero, fatty"
I cannot get enough of that episode.
Runners Up: Any Arrested Development episode and any I Love Lucy episode prior to 1954 when it got very obvious that Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz could not stand each other.
Okay, here's another one. The top 5 saddest episodes of any show you can remember.
1. My Old Lady – Scrubs, Season One (I think). I know this is supposed to be a hopeful, lesson-learning episode of Scrubs, but J.D., Elliot, and Turk all have their patients die at the end and it is just really sad. Plus that old lady on there was the old lady that died on West Wing I think as well
2. I Will Remember You – Angel, Season One. I know, a lot with the Angel, but this episode you get to see what Buffy and Angel could have been like had they been able to be a couple, all because he gets infected with a special demon goo that makes him human. Features David Boreanez shirtless with ice cream on him too!
3. The One Where Kelli Martin Dies, ER. Don't know the episode title or her name on the show, but y'all know which one I'm talking about, where Carter and Kelli Martin get stabbed on Valentine's Day, she dies and Carter gets really hurt which leads him to abuse pain medication? Two parter.
4. The Series Finale of The Wonder Years. Don't read this if you don't know how this show ends. I have been traumatized ever since by the ending of The Wonder Years, my TV bubble had burst. I still, to this day, do not understand how Kevin and Winnie do not end up together. I cried when it happened and it still breaks my fantasy heart.
5. Not the full episode but the very end of "Development Arrested", Arrested Development, Season Three, Series Finale. I think maybe because I was so incredibly depressed that the show was being cancelled I totally cried at the end of this show. When Ron Howard's voice comes on over Michael and George Michael sailing off into the sunset and says "It was Arrested Development" I lost it. Perhaps the most tragic of all cancellations that has happened in recent TV history.
Runners Up: "The Deposition", The Office Season Four; "Through the Looking Glass", Lost Season Three; The one where Lowell leaves the show on Wings (end of an era). There also was an episode of Once And Again that I remember crying like a baby too but cannot for the life of me remember why now. I think it had something to do with the brother and the sister.

RCMA No Color Powder – I use this every single day! I take my Real Techniques setting brush and set my concealer under my eyes, around my nose, and my chin. It helps my concealer stay all day and helps the wear time of my foundation. The first place my foundation starts to wear off is my chin. Probably because I tend to touch it the most. But for the price ($12) this stuff is absolutely amazing and I doubt I will run out anytime soon.
Pixi Glow Tonic – Over the past 2 years I have probably gone through 20 bottles of this. It's my hands down favorite toner. A few month ago Target had been out of it for about 2 weeks and I freaked out. Now I always have a backup on hand. I have dry skin, especially in the winter so my skin can't really handle anything that has alcohol as the number one ingredient. The Glow Tonic has a 5% Glyolic Acid Formula with Aloe Vera and Ginseng. It is gentle yet gets rid of any dead skin I have. I don't even remember who I originally heard about this from but, it has been a game changer in my life. Whoever it was needs to be thanked with my famous apple pie.
Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes – I rediscovered this mascara this year. I was drawn in by the gorgeous packaging but, kept repurchasing because the formula is just great. This is my normal everyday mascara. I feel as a girl who wears glasses the blackest of black mascara is a must. This gives me the perfect lift and slight curl that I need.
Charlotte Tilbury Vintage Vamp Eye Shadow Quad – I remember drooling over this eye quad and when I finally bought it, I didn't use her as much as I should have. A few month ago I was getting bored of my normal palettes and I pulled out Vintage Vamp and we fell in love all over again. I highly suggest this for anyone with blue or green eyes. They just pop when wearing this quad. I use the medium maroon shade in my crease, the darker shade on my outer lid bringing it in about half way and the lightest shade on my inner lid. Once and awhile I will pop the gold right in the middle of my lid, on top of the rest. I now reach for this 3 or 4 days a week.
Covergirl Healthy Elixir Foundation – I bought this on a whim. 2017 was not a huge beauty year for me. I did not buy a lot of new items just a lot of repurchases of items I knew worked for me. So, I was standing in CVS staring at this foundation thinking well why not I haven't bought any other foundation this year. And well it's my best "why not" purchase to date. It has become my absolute favorite foundation. I wear it every single day. Most days I sheer it out with moisturizer (I use cetaphil). I wear the lightest shade, 705. It works so well with my dry skin. I don't have to worry about having any dry patches. I have used the real techniques sponge to apply it but most days I just use my fingers and the coverage is great.
SK-II Facial Treatment Essence – This stuff most be sourced from special fountain in a secret mountain somewhere heavenly because my face knows when I am not using it. I put a small amount in the palm of my hand and then press it into my skin. I use the essence after the Pixi Glow Tonic and before my serum. I feel like it helps hydrate my face and my serum and moisturizer absorb better when using it. I have tried other brands who have a similar product but I always come back to the SK-II.
Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso – I have used this blush for ages. It is a staple in my beauty drawers. It compliments my skin tone so nicely and the fact that it is a baked blush gives it a natural sheen. I can wear this alone or with bronzer. I reach for this blush almost every single day. It is something I don't even need to think about.
Honorable mentions
Glossier Stretch Concealer & the Balm Dot Com
Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser & Moisturizing Lotion

This talk concerns an problematic paradigm in English and other languages that I will call coordinated wh questions (CWh for short). An example of an acceptable CWh is given in (1) below.
(1) What and when did Jane eat?
These sentences are odd in that the superficially seem to involve the coordination of a argument wh-word and an adjunct wh-word. Or, failing that, it appears there is overt movement of multiple wh-words within a single English sentence: an apparent anomaly. In this talk I argue that not only are neither of the above analyses correct, but also that any other syntactico-centric analysis of the construction fails.
The example in (1) will be shown to contrast with examples like those in (2) where the relevant verb is of fixed transitivity (cf the ambitransitive 'eat' above). Further, the particular order of the argument versus the adjunct will be shown to effect acceptability as well. This is shown in (3a-b) where the order of the wh-words is the opposite and both sentences are acceptable (as will be supported by a judgment study)
(2) *What and when did Jane fix?
(3) a. When and what did Jane eat?
(3) b. When and what did Jane fix?
I then posit that the two wh-words bear two different types of dependency between their overt position and their lower position. The difference between these two dependencies is evinced through an online psycholinguistic measure that shows a lack of so-called filled gap effects for the first wh-word (what).

Samsung Unveils A Mac Pro "Inspired" ArtePC Pulse
The cylindrical PC packs in 6th gen Core i5 and i7 processors.
Samsung has already faced allegations from Apple for copying its iPhone. The court too has agreed with the Redmond-based brand and slapped a $1 billion penalty on Samsung. This, however, hasn't deterred the South Korean giant from drawing "inspiration" from Apple's Mac Pro for its desktop PC. Dubbed as the ArtPC Pulse, Samsung's PC sports a cylindrical metal body. Improving upon Apple's scheme, the ArtPC offers easy-to-add modules. The PC has a fancy ambient light embedded within the circular design. Apart from enhancing the aesthetics, the LED ring is used for notifications. For instance, the ArtPC Pulse will blink in a certain colour if you receive a new email, social media chat message, or social media update.
The ArtePC Pulse is a foot tall and is 5.5-inch wide. Inside the compact package, you get a 6th generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processor, AMD Radeon RX460 GPU, up to 16GB of memory, and a 1 HDD module. Plus, there's a 256 GB SSD for faster load times and performance. The PC also packs-in a 360 speaker Harman/Kardon. The Core i7 model comes with an additional 1 TB HDD storage module. In terms of ports, you get four USB 3.0, a USB Type-C and, HDMI. The ArtPC Pulse also ships with a wireless keyboard and mouse. As of this writing, Samsung hasn't shed a light on device's pricing and availability.

text: Washington - Social media posts of Donald Trump and Shinzo Abe huddling with aides in a public dining room after North Korea's missile test raised questions on Monday about his administration's handling of sensitive information.The conversation - which would ordinarily take place behind closed doors and be classified - was captured on camera from close range by a member of Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida on Saturday.Facebook user Richard DeAgazio posted pictures of Trump huddling with aides and Abe, and taking calls.One caption of the now removed posts read: "The President receiving the news about the Missile incident from North Korea on Japan with the Prime Minister sitting next to him".DeAgazio later wrote: "The Prime Minister Abe of Japan huddles with his staff and the President is on the phone with Washington DC. the two world leaders then conferred and then went into another room for hastily arranged press conference. Wow.....the center of the action!!!"North Korea launched a new ballistic missile Sunday, as it edges ever closer to marrying nuclear and missile technology that could deliver a devastating payload to the continental United States.When the president is away from the White House, many crisis conversations take place in a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility - or SCIF.The facilities are normally out-of-bounds for individuals without security clearance and common digital devices such as unsecured mobile phones.Does the wait staff at Mar-a-Lago have security clearance? Serious question. pic.twitter.com/CceYlJubag— Joaquin Castro (@JoaquinCastrotx) February 13, 2017 The White House said that Trump was briefed in such a room "prior to dinner" and that no sensitive information was shared at the table."There is no one in that picture around him or whatever that isn't part of the US delegation or the Japanese delegation, they were reviewing the logistics for the press conference," said White House spokesman Sean Spicer."The president was subsequently briefed again in a classified setting, after the dinner, before they went out and spoke."But Democrats were fuming, and quick to recall Trump's criticism of 2016 election rival Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server."There's no excuse for letting an international crisis play out in front of a bunch of country club members like dinner theatre," said the Democratic leader in the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi.

Basildon Council's Urgent Decision and Staffing Sub-Committee approved the award of contract to Enviro Building Solutions Ltd on Wednesday 23 January.
Conditional planning permission was granted at Basildon Council's Planning Committee in November last year. The project includes relocating the centre from Market Road to Nevendon Recreation Ground in Nevendon Road.
It also includes the demolition of the One Step Ahead pre-school which will be relocated into the new community centre.
Councillor Tony Hedley, Basildon Council's Chairman of the Regeneration Committee, said: "This is another significant step forward for an exciting project that will bring great community benefit.
"The existing centre is no longer fit for purpose and we are committed to working in partnership with the community association to ensure we give them a facility that will enable a greater range of activities.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Veolia Pitsea Marshes Maintenance Trust following our successful bid for additional funding which allows us to make provision within the new centre for the pre-school, improving the facilities for its users.
"This will also unlock much needed redevelopment on the site of the old centre and form part of the wider regeneration of Wickford."
Doug Benjafield, Chairman of the Veolia Pitsea Marshes Trust, added:
"Trustees were fully supportive of the proposal submitted by Basildon Borough Council in 2018 as it clearly demonstrated that the new facility would be a valuable and well used community asset not only for the residents of Wickford, but also for members of the wider community.
"It's a very good example of how Landfill Communities Fund monies can be used to maximise social, economic and recreational benefits to local communities."

Discjunkie's Comments
Despite the good choice of coverart and the pretty clean front, the backcover is just covered in quotes and commercial praise. All in all, the silver-look is a nice look for this film and definetly goes along nicely with the feel of the movie itself, but the the idea of keeping the whole thing clean definetly got lost along the way.
Well this seems like a really nice set up. We get both a DTS-track and a full length commentary. Followed by an extensive making of / behind the scenes film running for close to an hour (this is a mixture of interviews and such but it's mainly made up of on set stuff. Sadly, both the documentary and all the other extras (including the commentary track!) come with no subtitles whats so ever (!).
The deleted scenes run for a good 20 min or so and are all top quality both picture and interest wise. After this there's a few shorties like trailers and such but at the end of the line we get a look at some of the directors's early work, with the full lenght short Disco Kung Fu. Sadly (just like with everything else), this extra also comes with zero subtitles (!).
All extras are in Swedish and come with NO subtitles!

General News of Monday, 9 January 2017
Source: classfmonline.com
The Akufo-Addo-led government will ensure that costs of public projects are not inflated in order not to drain the national kitty, Mathew Nyindam, First Deputy Majority Chief Whip and Member of Parliament for Kpandai, has said.
According to him, one too many projects were overpriced in the previous administration of John Dramani Mahama, but such acts will not be replicated under the Akufo-Addo government.
Speaking in an interview with Chief Jerry Forson, host of Ghana Yensom, on Accra100.5FM on Monday January 9, Mr Nyindam said: "If you listened to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in opposition, he mentioned that there were several projects introduced by the then NDC government that had no due diligence done on them, therefore, did not give Ghanaians value for money and that they were inflated projects. The Kasoa interchange, which resulted in exchanges between then President John Mahama and Nana Addo was an example.
"Nana Addo knows that it is good to build schools, it is good to build roads, it is good to build interchanges, but at the end of the day, as we are doing those projects, we should not inflate the cost of those projects. We need to make sure that there is actually value for money and that is why Nana Addo is saying that if we can use for instance GHS100 for a project, we should not inflate it to GHS500 because it is state money."
He added: "So, if we (government) are about to start a project, we will make sure that that project has value for money. We will not inflate the projects because we think we can make money for our personal use through that. Secondly, we will set our priories right. If it is roads we are thinking about, we will ask ourselves whether that is what we need at the moment as a nation. We will consider priority."

Tihar-Deepawali-Yamapanchak [1]
- Bhola
Tihar or Deepawali(Festival of lights and colors) is a five day long festival which is also known as Yama Panchak. This festival marks the reconfirmation of human relationship with the animals; honoring and propitiating the Goddess of both material and spiritual abundance (Goddess Laxmi); celebration of relationships between the brothers and sisters; family reunions and unity, etc. Among the infinite festivals celebrated in Nepal, Tihar, is celebrated throughout Nepal and the neighboring countries with great joy.
The term Yama Panchak means to honor Yama the Lord of the Yonder World (Lord of Death, Dying and Arbiter of the Souls after Death). The ceremonies and festivities celebrated during this time is also to re enforce ourselves to be able to face and tackle the severe winter season that is coming very soon and to place the unforeseen circumstances. On the one hand is the the festival of family get-together especially between brothers and sisters where the sister blesses the brother. On the other hand it is also to placate the premature death and to protect from the clutch of Yama's messengers (Yamadutas). Not only that if we look from the shamanic spiritual perspective, it is the festival to honor the friendly and helpful animals and their spiritual aspects. These panchaks or five days of the festivals are celebrated in the following ways:
November 05: The first day of the Tihar is Kaag(crow) Tihar: Crow as the messenger of Yama or the go between the human world and the yonder world where Yama rules. On this day the people prepare food and keep on the rooftop or under the trees so that the crows enjoy that ceremonial meal and would not bring any bad news from the lord of the yonder world. As crow is also related to planet Saturn, is disarrayed can bring obstacles and difficulties in everyday lives. So, it is an important day to honor and journey to crow and make necessary rituals in your/our own ways besides the traditional festivities.
November 06: The second day is Kukur Tihar (Dog):The Dogs are considered to be the door keepers in the reign of Yamaraja. The myths tells us that Shyam and Sabal are the two guardian dogs in the palace of Lord Yamaraja. On this day the dogs are honored by offering marygold garlands, vermilion- red colored blessings on the foreheads and delicious foods are offered. It is also the day to mark the relationship between the humans and dogs: protectors. What we understand here is that the dogs are one of the closest friends of humans. The other thing is that as they are the guardians of the palace of the Lord of the Yonder World, honoring them and creating a strong bond of relationships with them would help the souls to cross over the gate to the other world easily. Yet, dog is a vehicle of Bhairava the wrathful deity who helps every being in times of difficulties.
November 07: The third day is Gai(Cow) Tihar and Laxmi Puja: which is dedicated to sacred Cow. On this morning the people cleanse the whole body of the cow by water, apply white rice flour paste, vermillion and yellow powder in the frontal part of the cow and also in the whole body by using marrigold flower. Incenses are offered and delicious special foods are given. A sacred altar is created by using the cow excrements on the floor with small holes where the cow milk is offered. The holes can be 54 or 84 or 108. Flowers, colorful stripes of cloths, incenses and rice cakes are also offered. Songs dedicated to sacred cow are also song accompanied by drums, bells, conch shells and metal rattles. Having offered the food to the 'Mother Cow', and flower garlands, the sacred threads that were tied in the human wrist during the Janaipurnima, thel full moon of August are untied and transferred to the cow's tail. The cow here becomes the mediator between the human realm and the realm of the deities and the ancestors. The cows are also the agents of soul retrieval for young children(not necessary to discuss here).
In the evening of the same day of Gai Tihar, Laxmi Puja is conducted. On this special day all the households are smeared with red mud/earth and cow dung(these elements are no more used in concrete city houses but waters from different sources are used instead); inside and outside of the households are illuminated by oil wickers and multi-color electric lamps; most of the pots and pans made out of copper are cleaned and decorated by flower garlands; the family jewelleries and valuables are put in the altar on a copper pot along with the picture of Goddess Laxmi; sacred books are also kept together and prayers offered. But before this in front of the main door of the house a special design is made using 5-7 different colors (rangoli) and a rice flour sacred path is created connecting the rangoli with the main altar inside the house. In this sacred path foot prints of the Goddess of Abundance are created thus welcoming her into the house. Oil wickers are lighted in the outside altar and number of oil wickers are lighted in the path going into the house. Candles are illuminated in all the doors, windows, cowsheds, etc. This ritual of Laxmi Puja is to thank for the health, peace, abundance and spiritual progression of the family memebers.
The night of Laxmi Puja is also called 'Sukha-Ratri', the night of bliss and happiness.
On this evening female members of the community go from home to home chanting the sacred and devotional songs accompanied by musical instruments and dancers. The songs are devoted to Laxmi, Saraswati, Rama, Krishna, etc. focused on blessings and protection. The singing groups are honored by giving special rice cakes, fruits, sweets and some donations.
After the female groups bestow blessings by singing 'deusi-bhaili' songs, the male members of the community start visiting households singing 'Bhailo' songs of blessings and protection.
November 08: The fourth day is Goru(oxen) Tihar or sometimes as Gobardhan Puja. The oxes are honored and thanked for the ploughing work they did throughout the year by applying sacred colors in the frontal parts of the body, offering floer garlands and giving special foods. On this day Lord Krishna is also remembered by creating a sacred mountain called the Gobardhana when he had saved the world from the deluge. Most of the time a mud mount is made with different symbols depicted on it. Milk, flowers, colors and stripes of cloths are offered.
November 09: The fifth day of Tihar is Bhai Tika. On this special day, traditionally brothers visit the sister's house or in some cases both brothers and sisters get-together at parent's home. As a custom the sisetrs dress up with the most beautiful dresses and the brothers aso dress up with traditional dresses. The sisters honor Yama and pray for the longevity of their brothers by making water and oil circles around the seat where brother/s are seated. Walnut fruit representing the Yama is kept outside the house and prayers are offered. The sisters apply oil in brothers head, sprinkle special water and flowers and offer a vertical tika in the forehead. The tika is made out of seven colors representing the rainbow bridge and the seven colors of the spiritual centres in the body/ 7 chakras. The brothers are given the best possible gifts, masala (packets with multiple dried fruits), etc. In return the brothers offer the tika in the same way they received and give a handsome gift.
This ritual is to protect the brothers for any unforeseen circumstances and obstacles. This day is also remembered as a day when Yama's sister Yami had blessed him.
Ancestors for thousands of years have celebrated these rituals and ceremonies and passed onto us as the sources and means of keeping the families intact, continuous exchanges and visits and maintaining the sense of community and spiritual connections.
During these five days of specific ceremonies and practices, we also continue with our everyday practices.
For those folks involved in healing and shamanic spiritual practices it has a great meaning in every aspects of our inner and outer journeys and to maintain a deep and strong relationship with ALL THAT IS.

Love should have a sweet, sugary flavor. Not a bitter, rotten taste.
It should make your life beautiful. It should help you experience things you've never felt before. Reach heights you never knew even existed. Fall into a divine sensation of ecstasy.
Love should bring out the best of you, help you grow. It should motivate you to open up and start seeing the world through your heart's lenses.
But, love also requires effort. It requires a lot of sacrifices.
Good relationships don't just happen overnight.
When you love someone, you fight with all of your being to protect what you have. You put up with things that you personally don't find enjoying. You accept compromises for the sake of the relationship. You embrace changes because it is the only way to go forward.
You don't just leave whenever you experience a bit of drama. You can't pretend to love someone, and then run for the hills whenever you have a little fight. It doesn't work like that.
You are either there, through thick and thin, holding hands and fearlessly walking through the hailstorm, or you don't get attached at all.
I'm sorry but, love will never be only pink skies, warm hugs, careless mornings and cozy nights. There will be pain, there will be sorrow, anger, tears, drama, fights. And if you truly love the person beside you, you will do anything to get through those tough times.
Because when you truly love someone, you don't give up at the first sign of inconvenience. You don't throw everything away over one stupid disagreement. You don't let your relationship fall apart over a silly argument.
When you truly love someone, you sit down and talk until everything is settled. You fight, you scream, you cry, but you never give up. You give them a chance to explain themselves. You share your opinions. You suggest a compromise. You think of everything you two could do to improve your relationship. You discuss until the sun comes up and night falls again.
But, whatever happens, you don't give up without a fight.
Not if you really care about them.
Because when you love someone, and I mean really love them from the very depths of your heart, you stick with them. You don't show up only when it feels convenient for you. You don't hold their hand when they're fine and then abandon them when they are at their most miserable. You don't disappear when they need you and reappear when you need them.
When you really love someone, you don't let them go through life alone. Whether it's pain or happiness they experience, you are always there to hold their hand and let them know that it will all be well. You don't let them suffer through it alone. You are in it together.
Because when you truly love someone, you believe that whatever it is that you're experiencing, as long as you stick together and hold each other's hand, you can survive it.

A new participatory budgeting scheme is being trialled across Inverclyde where up to £50,000 in each of the area's seven wards is being made available.
Council Leader Councillor Stephen McCabe said: "Participatory budgeting is a way for people to have a say and to vote directly on how local money should be spent.
"Ideas are put forward about how a budget should be spent with people voting for their priorities. "The projects with the most votes get funded.
"These could be anything from healthy eating to youth work but ultimately the process is about bringing people together, getting them more involved in decision making and democracy."
Initially £350,000 is being made available - £50,000 for each of Inverclyde's seven wards – for local groups and organisations to apply for up to a maximum of £25,000.
You can only apply for one of our grants if:
• You are based and provide services in Inverclyde
• Organisations must be based in the Council Ward for which they are applying for funding – only one application per organisation/per Council Ward will be accepted.
• You are a non-profit group
• You have a constitution, set of rules or Memorandum and Articles of Association which is dated and signed as 'adopted' by an office bearer on behalf of your group
• You have a bank or building society account which requires at least two signatures on each cheque or withdrawal

Small town girl Ciara packs a punch both in and out of the office.
While in the office, Ciara works diligently to keep our project plans on track, but out of the office Ciara can be found hard at work striking her way to the next level of Muay Thai martial arts.
Project Manager Ciara was raised in Shelbyville, Indiana and began her career in Indianapolis. "I heard about Inverse-Square from a former coworker. They mentioned that Inverse-Square was looking for a Project Manager and I would be a great match!"
Ciara usually begins her day brewing coffee and reviewing emails before checking with the Development team to ensure project goals are being met and then communicating updates to clients. "The great thing about my job is that no two days are the same! I love the flexible work environment. It allows for a proper work life balance."
Part of that balance includes the time Ciara spends in Agility training competitions with her dog Pepper. Pepper the Sheltie has become one of Inverse-Square's office dogs and can often be found in the lap of a Developer encouraging them as they code. So when Ciara joined Team Awesome, Inverse-Square got two new team members for the price of one!

advert, AVM BBDO, black grouse, Christmas, famous grouse, Lewis Moberly, redesign, Rodger McPhail, The Drum, TV, whisky
While my media news source, The Drum, says that this advert will be launched December 5th, I've just seen it on More4 during Come Dine With Me's ad-break. It's definitely the 4th, my advent calender says so.
Created by AMV BBDO – the marketing geniuses behind the Twinings Infusions Waterfall, and the Birds Eye Peas Polar Bear adverts – the advert follow the tone previously set by the series of Famous Grouse ads, the perfect balance of humour and the "buy me" message. I've also noticed that the start of the Grouse theme sounds eerily like Deck the Halls, a connection I'm sure AMV BBDO are playing upon due to its December release.
The new advert is accompanied by revamped bottle designs by Lewis Moberly, which features a more realistic illustration of the bird by Rodger McPhail, a British wildlife artist.
The new direction really serves to empower the presence of the Black Grouse on the shelves. As a percentage of every bottle sold goes towards the conservation of the bird – and it boasts a far smokier flavor than the original Famous Grouse – It's a move well made. Vital conservation work gets further funding, and more people will try a whiskey they otherwise might not have.
A possible Christmas present for the Whiskey lover in your life?
