To call the start of Daniele De Rossi's season tumultuous would be a massive understatement. Between the straight red card in the 39th minute of Roma's all-important second leg against Porto in the Champions League Playoffs and the subsequent stripping of the captain's armband, it's been a frustrating couple of weeks for DDR. Well, get ready to throw another log on that fire.
After limping off the pitch Thursday evening in Italy's friendly against France, De Rossi learned today that he will face a brief spell on the sidelines.
Today Daniele De Rossi underwent instrumental exams that confirmed a direct trauma with a muscular and sub-cutaneous ematoma [sic] in the region of the gastrocnemius muscle in his left leg reads the statement...The midfielder was forced to step off the pitch in the Nazionale's friendly against France on Thursday night, after an impact with an opponent...De Rossi will continue the individual protocol he's been scheduled and his conditions will be evaluated day by day.
For those of you who don't have a Physician's Desk Reference manual available, here's what happened: De Rossi bruised his left calf rather badly, so bad that he may be out for three weeks. While we'll never discount De Rossi, this is the latest in a line of calf and thigh problems he's suffered over the past two years, the most recent of which, a calf injury from last spring, forced him to miss four matches. Given his relentless style, these are the sort of injuries we thought might start to take their toll on De Rossi, so let's hope this is just another minor blip rather than a sign of things to come.
In his stead, look for Lovely Leandro Paredes to earn the majority of the midfield minutes, but might that midfield take on a different form?
Due to De Rossi's injury, not to mention his three-match Europa League ban, Luciano Spalletti has reportedly experimented with a 4-2-3-1 midfield, with Paredes and Kevin Strootman operating as the double pivot between the defense and the trio of Radja Nainggolan, Mohamed Salah and Stephan El Shaarawy. Quite honestly, this is something with which Spalletti should have experimented anyway, as it allows him to get all of Roma's top attackers on the pitch at once, so this could be a blessing in disguise.
But back to the point at hand, De Rossi. Given the lack of depth in midfield, DDRs fitness weighs heavier than ever before, particularly as they have no nominal backup defensive midfielder. Roma has no other choice but to rely on him for another 20+ starts this season.
In the broader and not necessarily connected sense, this is the final year of De Rossi's contract, and between the injuries, the sometimes inconsistent play and the captaincy controversy, we might be looking at another horrible Totti-like contract extension melodrama this spring.
In the meantime, however, this is a GIGANTIC opportunity for Paredes. With a potential three week run of uninterrupted play, he can really cement his place in the rotation and finally put those transfer rumors to rest.

My Approach to Helping
We all know that life is full of messiness, but what if we didn't have to hold it together? What if we didn't show a version of ourselves or wear a facade? What if we could be really honest about our experiences, thoughts, and feelings? Sometimes it's hard to find places to allow our chaos, confusion and pain to come out of hiding and be seen. My hope is that you find comfort and safety to allow the mess to show up. I believe therapy offers us the invitation to do something different — to choose a new way. It can be an uncomfortable and powerful offer to be seen, known and heard for who you really are.
My belief in therapy is centered around the healing power of relationships, because of that I pay attention to both our dynamic and communication as important tools in our work. Our therapeutic relationship can be the revealer of previous patterns, blocks, conflict styles and other relational tendencies. The question we get to lean into is, what are we going to do with this information? In my view, the counseling process is collaborative between us and can facilitate growth and change. I find focusing and building upon personal strengths, developing self-compassion and implementing new skills can bring about transformation. I practice from an attachment theory perspective, looking at primary caregiver relationships as a way to understand the role that connection plays in your life. I also practice from a perspective that our bodies are vital in the work of healing as they guide us to where the mending is needed. Memories, feelings, and trauma are held in our physical forms. My goal is to make a secure space for your body to be in whatever state it is in and for you to lovingly engage your complexity and glory.

On July 6, 2020, the SBA released identifying information of the borrowers who took out a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan. There was much uncertainty whether the names of the borrowers would be made public, and Congress and the Administration went back and forth on this matter. Nonetheless, an agreement was reached several weeks ago to release this information. For more information on this decision, please click here.
To assist you in finding the SBA's resources, we have provided links to the following:
- SBA Paycheck Protection Program Loan Level Data
- Background information on PPP loan details from the SBA
The SBA also issued a spreadsheet listing borrowers with PPP loans of over $150,000. It is a large file and can be accessed through the link above. For your reference, the borrowers are listed in the following loan ranges:
- $5,000,000 – $10,000,000
- $2,000,000 – $5,000,000
- $1,000,000 – $2,000,000
- $350,000 – $1,000,000
- $150,000 – $350,000
Then within the range, the borrowers are listed alphabetically.
Finally, the column headings, and thus the information provided, on this PDF are as follows:
- Loan Range; Business Name; Address; City, State, Zip; NAICS Code; Business Type; Race-Ethnicity; Gender; Veteran; Non-Profit; Jobs Retained; Date Approved; Lender; and CD
This information is now public record, and PPP borrowers should be aware of this. If interested, you can learn more about how your company can turn media inquiries about your loans into positive branding opportunities here.
Please contact your Sikich tax advisor with questions about the PPP loans.

Summer House by Kapsimalis Architects
Situated in Messaria, Santorini, Greece, this contemporary summer house was designed in 2016 by Kapsimalis Architects.
Description by Kapsimalis Architects
The summer house is located in the edge of Messaria village in Santorini. The square-‐shaped plot with a small inclination faces northeast to the sea and south to the village of Pirgos and the mountain. The house is placed in the center of the plot and close to the west side, leaving enough space for a southeast facing garden and its north entrance. The building consists of a ground floor, upper floor and a small storage space in the basement. In the ground floor someone can find the living room, the dining and the kitchen and two en suite guest bedrooms, while in the upper floor the master bedroom with its dressing room and its bathroom and an en suite kids bedroom. A central internal staircase connects and unifies visually the individual floor levels. The exterior space, around the building, is formed with sitting, dinning and planting areas. The design of a common space around the palm tree, without clear boundaries between inside and outside, was the main objective of the project. This space results as a subtraction of solid mass out of the conceivable volume of the building. The common space and the remaining, closed blocks or structural elements form the main structure of the house. The blocks, free-‐ standing on the ground floor and the upper level, enclose the private spaces of the bedrooms or form functional units like the storage space of the kitchen, the fireplaces' block, etc. Their arrangement and their shapes give variety in the perception of space, shape various sitting, studying corners etc., enhance the fluidity of space horizontally and vertically and contribute to better natural lighting through patios and skylights. A distinctive aspect of the common space are the multiple points of view, cross views, straight line and diagonal views, that emerge as a result of the position of each block. The blocks on the upper level shape the roof of the building. The users' common activities take place in this closed, semi-‐closed and open-‐air common space and are expanded to the surrounding garden with a perimeter white-‐wall. The form is a synthesis of cubistic white volumes, as a contemporary translation of the traditional cubistic architecture found in the villages of Santorini with a clear influence from modernism. The synthesis of the building volumes, the formation of its facades in relation to the orientation and the greenery planting have positive impact to the development of a favorable microclimate of natural shading and cooling during the summer months. The interior design and the furniture selection are gently integrated to the clean-‐cut concept of the building. The main materials used in the construction is reinforced concrete for the bearing structure, insulated bricks for the walls, white plaster for the coatings, white wooden energy efficient doors & windows, Gortynis grey marble and grey cement plaster for the floors.

There's not much that can be said about recurring themes in Nicolas Winding Refn's films that hasn't been said before, but here's a recap: self-indulgent, hyper violent, misogynist, pretentious, shallow.
Things happen quickly in L.A. for Jesse (Elle Fanning): days after she arrives, her modelling career takes off. Everyone who meets her – who isn't also a model – falls in love with her beauty and her enticing, almost mystical, charisma. But the city is tough, and there are people who want to take advantage of her – or harm her.
The Neon Demon is very much a Nicolas Winding Refn film. The film's lighting is absolutely stunning – high contrast colours hit all the right spots to create images worth staring at despite the unpleasantness that usually tags along. Some situations are so revolting or horrifying, I was inclined to look away. The script for The Neon Demon should read as a campy horror-thriller, with a runtime of about one-hour-and-15-minutes. Refn has instead created a masturbatory (in more ways than one) two-hour pseudo-intellectual "understated" (or, dialogue that takes ages to get through) drama. Imagine Wes Anderson – on a really bad crack trip – made a film with a morphined-up Kevin Smith.
The Neon Demon is a little too on the nose about its themes. By now, most experienced moviegoers are aware of western obsessions and consumptions of youth and beauty, but by the film's conclusion it comes across as a little too heavy-handed and, well, literal. Nothing is being said that isn't already obvious to the average person, nor is it being said from a particularly interesting or unique point of view.
With such lifeless characterizations, the film is not all that convincing. There's sympathy for Jesse, but there's no real connection. Her charisma seems to be entirely within the film – the audience will just have to trust the other beaming characters when they talk about her magnetic quality. It's not that Elle Fanning is giving a bad performance, but a lack of charm afflicts the otherwise talented cast, who all seem to be bogged down by the snail's pace of the film.
The big question seems to be whether or not The Neon Demon is a horror film. It could be: it has gore and violence. While sequestered to the last quarter of the movie, it is overt, but not enough to be scary or even ironic – more confusing and repulsive. There isn't much suspense in The Neon Demon either. It's tense, weighing the audience down with the uneasy feeling that something not only bad but seriously disturbing is going to happen, but there is no relief for the tension. The smothering, gratuitous heft even carries through to the film's conclusion, after all the seriously disturbing plot points are rattled off: Necrophilia? All in a day's work. Rape? Several times over. Cannibalism? It's as though it's a struggle to actively deny oneself from eating people.
Refn is a very talented photographer and cinematographer. He lacks storytelling capabilities, which makes The Neon Demon a poor example of narrative.

Three-dimensional fault representation by interface and solid elements: effects of the anisotropy of the fault zone permeability on the timing of triggered earthquakes
Three-dimensional fault representation by interface and solid elements: effects of the anisotropy of the fault zone permeability on the timing of triggered earthquakes
Wednesday 22nd November 2017
Vadacca, L.; Colciago, C. M.; Micheletti, S.; Scotti, A.
In the last years numerous seismological evidences have shown a strict correlation between fluid injection and seismicity. An important topic that is currently under discussion in the scientific community concerns the prediction of the earthquake magnitude that may be triggered by fluid injection activities. Coupled fluid flow and geomechanical deformation models can aim at understand the evolution of pore pressure and rock deformation due to fluid injection in the subsurface. To perform an accurate numerical study of the correlation among fluid injection, seismicity rates and maximum earthquake magnitude, it is necessary to characterize the model with two fundamental features: first, the presence of a system of faults possibly intersecting among each other; second, the variability of the hydro-mechanical properties across the region surrounding each fault plane (fault zone). The novelty of this work is to account for these two aspects combining together two different numerical techniques that have been proposed in literature for the fault's modelling: for the first feature, interface elements are used to describe the frictional contacts occurring on the faults surfaces; for the second feature, solid elements are adopted to describe the heterogeneous hydro-mechanical behavior across the fault zone. Moreover, we account for a spatial variation of the permeability in the fault zone both along the dip and the normal direction with respect to the fault plane. We compute the numerical solution for six models among which we vary the permeability contrasts between protolith rocks and damage zone and between damage zone and fault core. We demonstrate that the anisotropy of permeability of the fault zone has a strong impact both on the timing and on the magnitude of triggered earthquakes. We suggest that a similar approach, which includes the entire architecture of the fault zone, shall be included in fluid-flow-geomechanical simulations to improve fault stability analysis during fluid injection.

This afternoon, President Obama sent the following message to the White House email list, explaining why we have to ensure that America is the country that writes this century's rules for the world's economy.
Didn't get it? Sign up for email updates here.
My top priority as President is making sure more hardworking Americans have a chance to get ahead. That's why we have to make sure the United States -- and not countries like China -- is the one writing this century's rules for the world's economy.
Trade has an important role to play in supporting good-paying, middle-class jobs in the United States. Unfortunately, past trade deals haven't always lived up to the hype. That's why I've made it clear that I won't sign any agreement that doesn't put American workers first.
But we also should recognize that 95 percent of our potential customers live outside our borders. Exports support more than 11 million jobs -- and exporters tend to pay their workers higher wages. Failing to seize new opportunities would be devastating not just for our businesses, but for our workers too.
That's why my Administration is currently negotiating the Trans-Pacific Partnership -- so we can benefit from trade that is not just free, but also fair.
Watch this video my team put together, and then share it with anyone who needs to know exactly what's at stake.
We have the chance to open up more markets to goods and services backed by three proud words: Made in America. For the sake of our businesses, and American workers, it's an opportunity we need to take.
But beyond greater access to the world's fastest-growing region, the agreement will establish enforceable commitments to protect labor, environmental, and other crucial standards that Americans hold dear.
Right now, China wants to write the rules for commerce in Asia. If it succeeds, our competitors would be free to ignore basic environmental and labor standards, giving them an unfair advantage over American workers.
We can't let that happen. We should write the rules, and level the playing field for our middle class. The first step is for Congress to pass Trade Promotion Authority.
Watch the video, and then pass it along.
After years of shipping jobs overseas, our manufacturing sector is creating jobs at a pace not seen since the 1990s. Rather than outsourcing, more companies are insourcing and bringing jobs back home. Today, more than half of manufacturing executives have said they're looking at bringing jobs back from China.
Let's give them one more reason to get it done, by giving me the tools I need to grow our economy, boost exports for our businesses, and give more hardworking middle-class families a chance to get ahead.
President Barack Obama

P. Diddy ???? No, not really but I am curious how he feel mid afternoon.
This week is starting off strong with a new workout!!! HURRAY!!! That should be fun and exciting but I guess not as fun and exciting as my weeks end. Yes that's right its time to SHIMMER! I am so looking forward to seeing all the girls and getting a little break of sorts from my home. I think I love my home too much sometimes…like I don't want to leave because I like it so much. I guess that is a topic for another time.
Back to SHIMMER, I think this set of tapings has the most interesting match possibilities of all. I might just be a huge Joshi fan and can't wait to see who faces them and how they measure up. I hope it's me (fingers crossed). I don't know much about the talent coming so I am really excited to watch the matches they put on…should be good stuff.
I am all kinds of excited to go grocery shopping after finishing up this blog. I decided besides my home my favorite place to be is the grocery store. My mom thinks I'm obsessed but at least it is a healthy obsession. I am planning on picking up all my travel food today so that might be adding to my excitement slightly.
In other exciting news Kelly comes back today!!! I hope Regis does not take a week off now…I need them together filling me in on the happenings of the world. The View and Wendy better be back this week too….I feel very out of touch with my current gossip and hot topics.
Last exciting update…New shirts should be coming in this week!!!!! And the crowd go wild!!! HURRAYYY, YIPPY, WHHOOO! I will try to get them up online ASAP and will have them with me this weekend. Hope to see some of you there!!!
HAPPY day to late Easter to you all!

I was watching a comedy video the other day and the guy did this bit about Christmas gifts. His sister gave him some dumb gift, saying he could return it for something he liked. "Oh, great, just what I wanted--an errand."

Younger people may be technology savvy, but human beings will always like to speak to one another so financial advisers still play a valuable role, said Joe Plumeri, author of 'The Power of Being Yourself' and former CEO of Citibank North America. Plumeri added that technology should be on behalf of people not instead of people. He said Silicon Valley is not stealing the top business school candidates from Wall Street because the businesses are fundamentally different and attract different types of people. Whether it be on Wall Street or in Silicon Valley, however, Plumeri said people need to make themselves compelling.

Mississippi Banker Moves Family into Branch
STEVE INSKEEP, host:
This is MORNING EDITION from NPR News. I'm Steve Inskeep.
RENEE MONTAGNE, host:
And I'm Renee Montagne.
South Mississippi was among the regions most damaged by Hurricane Katrina. One bank, based in Biloxi, had nearly half of its branches destroyed. Peoples Bank has been in one family for three generations. Chevis Swetman is the current president, and we reached him at the conference room of the bank's main branch in Biloxi.
And Mr. Swetman, hello.
Mr. CHEVIS SWETMAN (President, Peoples Bank): Hello.
MONTAGNE: I gather that you have actually been living there.
Mr. SWETMAN: I've got my office and my conference room is where my wife, my son and I are living.
MONTAGNE: Living as in you have mattresses on the floor?
Mr. SWETMAN: We've got these little thin sleep mats, and that's where we spend the night. It hasn't been that difficult. Generally, right after the sun sets we sort of lay our heads down on the pillow. And then the rest of the family gets up about 6, but I'm generally up anywhere from 2:30 to 5:00 in the morning, thinking about what I've got to do for tomorrow.
MONTAGNE: Well, that's probably a big thing to think about. How badly were your bank branches damaged?
Mr. SWETMAN: Well, we have 16 locations, and 10 of our 16 branches that are open. The ones that didn't open, we have--in Waveland we had eight feet of water in the facility. Bay St. Louis we had 12 feet of water in the facility. Pass Christian, which was one of the harder-hit areas, I've got--I had a vault, an ATM and a night depository knocked over.
MONTAGNE: When you talk about a vault that, you know, was knocked down, it was--What?--underwater?
Mr. SWETMAN: No, it was--not only was it underwater, it was completely washed through. The only thing that was showing was the vault door, and you probably had tons and tons of debris and rubble in front of the vault door, that we couldn't get out. We basically had to get a bulldozer to clean out the area, to be able to open the vault door. That vault had about four and a half feet of water in it. And everything that we had in that vault was basically contaminated currency, and we've been--we're talking to the Federal Reserve on how to handle contaminated currency, and we're still learning as we speak.
MONTAGNE: Your customers, scattered far and wide, what are they doing about getting the money that they have in your bank?
Mr. SWETMAN: Our first mission was to get cash back in circulation. We feel that getting cash back into people's hands, you know, is the start of commerce, and once people start spending and know they have access to money, you start the rebuilding effort. So if you were a non-bank customer and needed a check cashed, we'd give you $50, you know, upon proper ID. If you're a bank customer, we are trying to limit out withdrawals to $500. Now if you're on the Biloxi peninsula, there's nothing standing. I mean, there's no need for cash because you can't spend it anywhere.
MONTAGNE: But you're optimistic you can build this back, bring these banks back?
Mr. SWETMAN: Every place that we've had a building destroyed or contaminated or whatever the case may be, we're going to build back in each of those communities. I mean, that's very important to us. We're part of the Gulf Coast. Our fortunes rise and fall based on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. When the Gulf Coast community does well, we do well. When something bad happens to the Gulf Coast community, we really don't have any diversification, so we're going to suffer along with them, sort of like I can now relate to the homeless that I might not have ever been able to relate to before.
MONTAGNE: Chevis Swetman is the president of Peoples Bank in Biloxi, Mississippi, speaking to us from his temporary home, the conference room in the bank.
Take care of yourself, and good luck.
Mr. SWETMAN: Thank you so much.

|Fort Henry Guard Fifes
photo by: Ken W. Watson, 2007
|At the grand celebration in Ottawa on June 30, 2007, of the 175th anniversary of the opening of the Rideau Canal, and the designation of the Rideau Canal as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, one of the clear highlights was the Fort Henry Guard Fife and Drum corps. These men and women were a clear audience favourite, second only to the canon and musket firing (also by the Fort Henry Guard). The fife and drum corps were everywhere - leading Colonel By and his family to the podium, marching over the plaza bridge, serenading a crowd in front of the Chateau Laurier Hotel and providing a deafening performance under the Plaza Bridge (tremendous acoustics).
It was fitting that they were there since Fort Henry and the Kingston fortifications (the Martello Towers) are included in the World Heritage designation. They reminded people that the Rideau Canal was built as a military project, a key element in the defence of Canada, providing a secure supply route to the critical British naval base at Kingston.

Class Act: TMI From ABC News' "Nightline", "20/20" Host Martin Bashir
By Debbie Schlussel
I guess when you are a Muslim and have a classy-sounding English accent, you can get away with a lot. Listen to the Too Much Information an audience heard from Martin Bashir of ABC News, who hosts both "Nightline" and "20/20" news shows and is a privileged member of the "Religion of Peace":
"I'm happy to be in the midst of so many Asian babes.
In fact, I'm happy that the podium covers me from the waist down." . . .
He went on to say that a speech should be "like a dress on a beautiful woman – long enough to cover the important parts and short enough to keep your interest – like my colleague Juju's [ABC News colleague, Juju Chang]".
I don't think Chris Hansen would be able to get away with talking about his, um, aroused state as host of a banquet.
Mind you, this was at an Asian American Journalists Association event. Sounds like the guy had too much to drink–a no-no in his religion.
Thanks to reader Ari for the tip.

The 35 story apartment tower intended to be built at the current site of the '50s-throwback Howard Johnson Inn doesn't yet have a name, but it has been cleared for takeoff. Generally referred to simply as "the HoJo tower" based on the motel it's set to replace, the 382-foot apartment tower is designed by bKL Architecture and features considerable retail space on the LaSalle and Superior streets it faces and a small pocket park on the Wells Street side. On Thursday of last week, the Chicago Plan Commission approved the project, so it can begin construction as scheduled early next year.
Earlier presentations of the building put the height at 398 feet but the final height submitted to the planning board is 382 feet, with three floors having been removed by the project developer and not at the request of the city, bKL Architecture tells us. Mac Management and Magellan Development are sharing development duties on this project, with Magellan taking a rare departure from the Lakeshore East neighborhood they've been developing themselves, and Hyde Park-based Mac Management branching into Downtown-area apartments for the first time.

Customer Reviews
Wasn't this advertised as a limited run of 25?When I bought mine?Just Curious? Thought it was for some reason 🤔
You have the only SWR 26 JD, mine is 27 and I was one digit off
My box says26
When my package arrived and got to inspection, my first thought was oh boy I'm in way over my head,LOL, but I'm retired, loving this hobby and with the advice of my new friends and mentors at Las Vegas Triopli,loc precision, and Rocket Vlogs.I CAN DO THIS !No pressure ,great project, and See you ,loc and rocket vlogs at our Octoberfest launch!Thanks again Jay
Just un boxed and inspected the parts. Next step was to dry fit this beast to really understand the anatomy and to see how tall 9.41 inches really is. One of the couplers was so tight that after the dry fit, the booster section and first section of the airframe could not be separated. Plans were made to cut it and remove it. The good folks of LOC-Precision took care of the problem by sending a new coupler gratis. Great customer service. In addition,Jason Chamberlin, another proud owner of the Skinwalker Rocket, shared his expertise via video chat and provided excellent info on the construction of the electronics bay. So far so good. Not sure if I will be fiber glassing this rocket or not.

Between the expansive seating, subway tiles, and overall sophistication of the space, you're forgiven for thinking you've walked into a bistro. The industry veteran George Howell has quite the resume, and his outlet inside the urbane Godfrey Hotel provides an excellent spot for focusing on the beans of his labor. There's a massive marble bar, two espresso machines, coffee education classes, a retail corner for purchasing brewing equipment and beans, and a menu of upscale treats. But the coffee drinks still reign supreme, including specialty drinks like The Original (a frozen blend of coffee, milk and sugar).

A Dragon's Story Slot
Last Updated
Behold! A Dragon's Story is an Online slots quest only for the brave. For this dragon is feared across the land. Actually, this is his story so we are on his side and must protect his treasure from the wily knights that come to try to pinch it. Our reward? Perchance some fair treasure of our own, plus a good chance of a nice rotisserie dinner.
Greeted by a fanfare of epic proportions we can tell right from the off that this slot is going to be epic. And the medieval lute and lyre-style music continues throughout to help create a great in-game atmosphere. Ruff, our dragon hero, grins beside the reel case as we hunt down the game's 25 fixed pay lines. No wonder he's grinning – check out the piles of gold he's sitting on! A grumpy Little Dragon sits wheezing at the bottom of the screen. Occasionally bursting a jet of flame onto the reels to turn a symbol into a Dragon Wild, substituting for all other symbols.
Our symbols feature some of the key components of A Dragon's Story – big piles of Gold. A running Knight, a broken Shield and burning armoured Boot. Medieval-styled 10s through Aces make up the lower-paying symbols. All of which can be boosted through the dragon's lair roof with NextGen's Superbet Feature™.
We have three choices: Superbet Off gives us one Little Dragon at the bottom of the reel case. Superbet 1 brings out three Little Dragons. While Superbet 2 invites five Little Dragons to sit and light up our reels. The more grumpy Little Dragons we have at the bottom of the reel case the more chance we have of fiery Dragon Wilds across the reels and the higher the RTP of our own Dragon's Story.
NextGen loves its bonus features, so it's little surprise to see A Dragon's Story boast two dedicated bonus games on top of the Superbet Feature™ that fires up our game-play and strategy potential in the base game. Landing three Scattered Jewels anywhere across the five reels launches the Free Games feature. Awarding 10 free games with doubled prizes and more flaming jets from the Little Dragons. A Dragon's Story's second bonus feature is the Brave Sir William Bonus, awarded at random after any paid spin. This brave and/or foolish knight enters Ruff's Lair looking for his gold. Do we want him to get it? Do we heck! We want Ruff to burn Brave Sir William's bottom with a fireball, at which point Ruff will share his gold with us instead.
With a well-devised theme and plenty of base-game and bonus feature action, A Dragon's Story has the potential to be the only story we will want to read at bed time, breakfast time and lunch time. It's flaming good fun.

Science Newsline Biology - Researchers at the School of Science at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis have sequenced the genome of the black blow fly, an insect commonly found throughout the United States, southern Canada and parts of northern Europe.
Other gene-mapping projects have been conducted by large, often international consortiums, with one group working on one aspect and others on different aspects, as a collaborative project. IUPUI's black blow fly genome sequencing was primarily conducted over four years by biology doctoral candidate Anne Andere under Picard's mentorship, with input from Texas Tech University biologists R.N. Platt II and David A. Ray.

I think it is safe to say that role of the movie trailer has never held as much significance as it does right now.
To keep up with the current trends of the digital era, many marketing campaigns are carried out online. Usually, this occurs through different social media platforms. When looking at these campaigns within the context of the film industry (where this strategy is often utilized), the goal is to get people on the internet talking about the movie in question. It is an ideal bubble to create traction and attract anticipation of an upcoming release by collecting likes, comments, retweets, etc.
In order to stand out, many of these virtual advertisements will take advantage of the vast possibilities on the internet to develop creative and interesting ways to garner engagement with followers. But, regardless, at the heart of any one of these campaigns lies the most important part of film advertising: the trailer. A trailer is the one thing that will get people on the internet talking the most, and a good trailer can set the tone for the general online reaction regarding the release of a new film.
This is not a new thing; the trailer has always been the most important aspect of a film's pre-release promotion. The practice of a trailer dates to 1913, when the first trailers ever were released as a marketing stunt. After that, they became common practice, with a collection of previews being shown after a feature film, "trailing" it, hence the name. When this was deemed ineffective, the trailer took its recognizable place before a film as the pre-feature entertainment.
The trailer has always been important, but it has evolved with modern technology and trends to become an entirely independent art form of its own. Entire studios known as trailer "houses" spend day-long shifts curating trailers, teasers, and previews to satisfy the requirements and specifications given to them by those in charge of a promotion campaign.
Now, there are even award shows for trailers. The most famous of which, The Golden Trailer Awards, occurs annually and highlights different film trailers and their superlatives. It is not uncommon to go online and find a short twenty-second trailer FOR a trailer. The practice of trailers to build hype is forever ingrained in our culture. I have always found it to be the most exciting aspect of a new release, and I look forward to the ways they will continue to change with the times.

Why does my son yell all of the time?
My son, 8, yells constantly. He yells when he's mad, but it's mostly when he's excited or happy. Whether it's playing with his little brother, or playing video games with Dad, or being excited because he's eating something he likes, his volume setting is way ,way too high most of the time.
He's a very happy boy who does very well in school and with most activities he tries. He's had his hearing checked multiple times and it's always normal. When I bring it to his attention, he turns the volume down, but it quickly goes right back up.
I'm not much of a yeller. My wife yells a lot when she's mad, but speaks at a normal volume otherwise. I'm at a loss trying to figure out how to stop him long term.
If your son's hearing is within normal limits and there are no other difficulties, then this loud use of his voice is likely behavioral. This means that you will need to continue to remind him to use his "inside voice" and offer praise or some type of reward when he does it. The trick is to be consistent with whatever you put in place. He will likely grow out of it to some extent.
There is certainly some risk in him using this voice in this manner. Excessive loud voice use has been linked to vocal nodules (small growths on the vocal cords). If his voice quality is raspy or airy, you should see an ENT specialist and/or a speech-language pathologist.

Despite their different politics, successive governments similarly promised to produce a skilled workforce to move the country out of the middle-income trap. They also similarly failed. The country's challenges are now even greater with the rapidly changing employment landscape from disruptive technology.
Don't blame it on a lack of policy vision.All major national manpower development policies are geared towards the same goal – to make Thailand a developed and competitive country. Be they the current government's Thailand 4.0 policy, the 20-Year National Strategic Framework (2017-2036), or 12th National Economic and Social Development Plan (2017-2021), their common goal is to increase national competitiveness through innovations and to produce a competent workforce with knowledge, skills and attributes. Yet the gap between vision and action is a wide one.
Don't blame it on a lack of jobs either.The labour force market is in dire need of medium-skilled workers in the fields of science and technology. Yet the educational system consistently failed to meet the labour market's demands. At the same time, it keeps churning out graduates who cannot meet labour market needs, resulting in an increasing surplus of bachelor's degree graduates who are unemployed.
To fill the gap, there have been state efforts to develop competency models and professional standards to equip the workforce with new skills so they can catch up with changing demands in the labour market.
There are several state agencies in charge of workforce competency development. They include the Department of Skill Development, the Office of Vocational Educational Commission, and the Thailand Professional Qualification Institute (Public Organisation). Professional councils and associations, as well as businesses, have also participated in efforts to develop workforce competency as they directly benefit from it.
Here is a big question: Have these state agencies adjusted themselves to understand disruptive technology and its repercussions so they can effectively help the workforce cope with changes in the labour market?
To survive digital disruption, what workers need is not only new technical skills. They also need to have creativity, critical thinking, and lifelong learning skills to effectively respond to rapid technological changes and artificial intelligence that will make a large number of workers jobless while creating new jobs that need new skills.
According to research by Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A Osborne in 2013, workers who are most likely to be replaced by automation are in industrial routines and assembly lines.
But those with professional skills and expertise will not be spared either. In the health services industry, for example, big data technology will soon provide more accurate diagnoses than physicians. The researchers also predicted that within one or two decades, about 47% of American jobs will be replaced by automation.
In the firing line are jobs in transportation and logistics, factory assembly lines, office clerical work, and many jobs in the services sector. Meanwhile, according to the World Economic Forum (WEF), the new jobs that will be in high demand are in data analysis, science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data.
Here, the Thailand Professional Qualification Institute plays an important role in improving and standardising professional qualifications to meet employers' demands. Its work covers work in the agricultural, industrial and service sectors and its mission is to make local professional qualifications meet Asean and international standards in the same kinds of jobs.
Equally important, the professional qualification certificates are a great boon to the majority of workers since they do not have a high educational background but are rich with professional skills and expertise from work experience. With professional qualification certificates, they can strengthen their work profiles and widen their job opportunities in the future.
As of May 16, 2019, the Thailand Professional Qualification Institute has set standards and provided professional qualifications certificates for 680 occupations in 54 sectors. Based on the research by Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A Osborne, almost 20 fields of work will be replaced by automation, for example, logistics, manufacturing, construction and aviation.
Although the businesses in high-speed rail, information and communications technology, and digital media have generated new jobs with low risk of being disrupted, the number of these jobs is still relatively small.
Meantime, it is still not possible to determine exactly how soon and how much automation will replace one's occupation due to a lack of information on the current use of automation and the level of employment in different industries.
Apart from the different scale and scope of automation currently in use, the availability of capital and personnel skills and knowledge also determines how soon and how serious a particular business will be affected by technological disruption.
The professional qualification system will play an important role to help the country and the workforce cope with disruption. To do that, however, the Thailand Professional Qualification Institute must be more proactive.
For starters, the institute must focus on the occupations that face low risks of being replaced by automation and still employ a substantial amount of manpower. Otherwise, the resources will be wasted on the occupations that will soon disappear.
Professional qualification standards and the certification system are essential to strengthen workforce competency, answer the country's development goals, and sharpen Thailand's competitiveness in the international arena. But it needs to readjust its priorities to remain relevant to current realities and needs. For example, it must identify and include new occupations with promise in its professional qualifications system and discard the ones that will disappear in the next five to 10 years.
In addition, the Thailand Professional Qualification Institute should concentrate more on manpower training to lift competency. The certification and better job opportunities will attract more people to take part in the professional qualification tests and training offered by the institute, making its services more widely known and better maximised than they are now.
Workforce competency is crucial when the employment landscape is facing a digital tsunami. The Thailand Professional Qualification Institute can help ease the blow if it is doing its job right amid rapid changes. Otherwise, the institute faces the risk of being overlooked, obsolete, and disrupted itself.
Ratree Prasomsup is a researcher at the Thailand Development Research Institute (TDRI). Policy analyses from the TDRI appear in the Bangkok Post on alternate Wednesdays.

Dreamless Night
I hear the mapmaker, Sigmund Freud,
calling out to me in his high-pitched voice:
"You have embarked on the wrong road,
That is not the royal route to the
unconscious I described."
And I, unaccountably,
keep wandering down this foolish
twisting gravel trail until I can no longer
hear his voice, and find myself alone,
high above the old river, quite
near the realm of silence.
From here, I won't observe the fierce
caravan of night:
crossbearers and flagellants,
horsemen continuing their compulsive
hunt. I will miss the moment when
the lightning of God's wrath embeds itself
in an ancient oak, whose roots
absorb the blow like a woman wideopen
in childbirth, her hands gripping
each side of the bed.
Tonight I will know nothing – the inner
world hissing and struggling in the distance
like some huge, hungry torch.
It's too complicated to be a human being.
Everyone knows this somewhere
in their hearts. Taking our last breaths, six
problems will still torment us. Under
the heavy sands of our bodies, there is
a vast lake of thick oil smouldering
helplessly, that nonetheless runs our cells.
So Sigmund, if one night I fail to dream,
if I turn away from the road of self knowledge,
let that stand as an offer of truce, a small
celebration, an acknowledgement
of complexity's limit, as when the traffic
halts, permitting the blind to cross.
by Lew Lipsitz
from Seeking the Hook
Signal Books, 1997

Information is Power, But Only if it is Used.
A Newsletter from Custom Decision Support Inc. & Lieb Associates Vol. 3 No. 2, Fall 1998
Business success requires delivering superior customer value. Customer value can be enhanced by proper application of technology and its benefit shown through effective price management. In this issue we look at the general issues of technology strategy and analysis of price point distributions.
Betting on Technology
Technology, both in manufacture and in product use, is among the most powerful business tools. The development of technology is often expensive and not subtle. If used wisely it gives long- standing competitive advantage providing the firm with a price premium and market leadership. Used unwisely, it can back the business into complacency and doom it to repeat past mistakes.
Technologies are the means to do things. It covers day to day procedures of managing resources as well as the sophisticated application of scientific and engineering discoveries and principles. The value of technology is not derived from its elegance or sophistication but from the benefits that are derived from its use.
We have found three key principles that must be recognized in developing creative active technology strategies:
1. All Technologies Improve - Some technologies may improve slower than others. However, all technologies whether serving old established industry or serving new "high tech" applications improve over time. A corollary to this principle is that not improving existing technology is always dangerous.
2. Established Technical Routes Show Increasing Marginal Difficulty - The easy things are done first, the remaining improvements take longer. Maintaining a continuous technology improvement based on existing methods and approaches require increasingly higher resources. Relying on existing ways and directions for developing technology will become increasingly expensive. This leads to the need for continuous improvement in the means for and direction of technology development.
3. Unique Value Comes from Unique Benefits - Long standing technology value comes from unique user benefits. Marginal product and process improvements tend only to produce marginal benefits. It is from unique capabilities that competitive advantage is derived.
Together the three principles emphasize the need for an innovative R&D process aiming for major improvements. That process must be tied to the market place where earnings and value are obtained.
Techno -Tips: Analyzing Price Point Distributions
The Techno-Tip column consists of suggestions and comments for data analysis. It is intended to help analysts and managers directly involved in the analysis of business data.
Understanding the distribution of price is critical for laying out effective market strategy. Price point distributions show the percent of products sold within a category below a given price. Normally we focus on consumer products at retail for this type of analysis. However, such end-use analysis is also critical to define product position in industrial markets.
Often only imperfect data is available to estimate the price point distribution. Typical data is shown in the figure below. The data is obtain either from consumer purchase diary data, outlet audits or from analysis of advertising, promotion and distribution. It is usually based on a highly limited sample and selected outlets.
The raw data produces distributions that are crude at best. These need to be smoothed inorder to interpolate values within ranges that data exists or to extrapolate values beyond the range measured. We have found that a log normal distribution fits price point data. The rationale for using the log normal distribution comes from the psychometric observation that differences in perception tend to be proportional or logarithmic. As such, we would expect that a normally dispersed average perceived values would be log normally distributed. The figure below shows the fit of the raw data to the log normal distribution using Microsoft EXCEL. The cumulative share is converted to a normal distribution using the NORMSINV function. The log values are obtain for price using the LOG function and the fit is done with simple regression.
The figure below shows a comparison between the fitted cumulative distribution and the log normal fit. This is fairly typical.
While we use the log normal for analysis of price points, it is also an effective model for other types of value distributions.
Software Review: Using Voice
The Software Review column captures our business data analysis experience with particular types of software packages. It is intended to help our readers in their software selection process.
Monologue for WindowsÔ and IBM ViaVoiceÔ Goldâ
Would it not be wonderful if we could communicate with computers by voice? It has been the promise for many years and in some regards it is here today. There are two sets of issues: (1) the capability of computers to understand speech and (2) the translation of written materials into speech. Both hold great value for the severely handicapped. However, our interests here are in this capability as productivity aids. Here too, both capabilities offer some unique opportunities and some problems.
Text to Voice
The ability to translate text to voice has been around for some time. The capability has been incorporated into Apples' Macintosh for over ten years. Monologue for WindowsÔ by Creative Labs (Sound Blaster) had been offered as a free included software package. DecTalkÒ available from Digital Electronics is reported to be the most advanced package of this type (unfortunately I have not had a chance to work with it.). These packages basically read text out loud.
The technology has been widely used in video and computer games. It has been promoted as a means of "livening up" applications. However, the most important use to me has been for editing. It provides a means of reading back written materials. Errors that could be identified only by a second party reading of the document are quickly apparent. Grammatical errors in my work have been reduced by at least 80% using this technology.
The remaining problems with the technology are the quality of the voice and the size of the dictionary. The voice typically is mechanical and it sounds like Stephen Hawkins is reading the text. Some words are incorrectly pronounced. This can be reduced by use of a custom dictionary. It is the size and universality of the dictionary that limits the usefulness of the software. While these problems may limit its application, I strongly recommend its general use for text editing.
Voice to Text
Voice recognition is the ability of the computer to recognize speech. There seems to have been great strides in this capability in the last few years. Like text to voice, it can serve the severely handicapped. Our interest, however, is in its use as a productivity aid, specifically in its use for dictation.
Some twenty five years ago, dictation of reports became popular with the availability of inexpensive miniature tape recording equipment. However, with the advent of personal computers and the reduction in clerical staff, dictation has declined in use. Those of us that had developed the dictation skills have been looking forward to that capability on the computer. There are two types of dictation software, discrete and continuous speech. The discrete system is based on speaking discrete words with a pause between each word. Continuous speech software is more complex, requiring significantly more computing capacity.
I've tested both types of software available from IBM. True VoiceÒ is a discrete speech system available both for OS/2 and Microsoft Windows. ViaVoiceÒ Gold is IBM's continuous speech system. In addition, Naturally SpeakingÒ is available from Dragon Software. All of these packages require that the user "trains" the system. This is a several hour process. The discrete speech recognition system, the IBM True Voice, was difficult to use since it requires a peculiar way of speaking. It is, therefore, not recommended.
There are three limitations to using continuous speech recognition software for dictation: (1) speed of use, (2) recognition accuracy, and (3) extent of the dictionary. Speed is a major problem with continuous speech. While a 90 megahertz Pentium was adequate for discrete speech, the 200 Megahertz process was barely able to handle the continuous speech system. IBM and Dragon Software both claim in the order of 95% accuracy. I found ViaVoice less than 90% accurate even after the full training session. However, 95% accuracy would itself not be adequate for dictation. This would be one wrong word in 20. This situation is even worse in regards to specialized vocabulary. Special legal and medical dictionaries are available. However, none are available in other areas such as marketing or strategic planning.
While voice to text software is a coming technology, we can not recommend voice recognition as a productivity tool just yet. It isn't ready for prime time.
The term "consultant" seems to mean different things to different people. It has been used to cover situations from outsourced functions and traditional agency services to outside advisors. However, it is in the role of the outside advisor that I believe is the appropriate use of the term. As a consultant in this definition, I find myself providing a "second" or alternative opinion or direction.
During a recent discussion about consulting, a friend raised the issue of "How do I handle the situation when a client does not take my suggestion or advice?" The answer to that question really distinguishes between consulting and other types of services. In consulting the problems rests with the client. It is his problem, not the consultant's. He makes the decision, not the consultant. There is no requirement for the client to take the consultant's advice. Furthermore, I may actually be wrong. The other alternative may be better for the client. I feel that I have been successful if I have allowed the client to come to a reasonable resolution of a problem by considering other alternatives.
It is also critical to recognize that as a consultant I get paid regardless if the client takes the advice. It is the client's backside on the line. If it is a wrong decision he will pay the consequence. It is the function of the consultant, however to help the client through. This means that I, as a consultant, must be loyal to the client and his organization. If I can not be, I should not remain his consultant. This is not the same as an outsourced function that merely provides a specified service. A consultant must be both independent of the organization to provide outside alternative views but still must be loyal to the firm and fundamentally a team player.
What's New
It's been a busy six months since the last newsletter. Computers are faster, the stock market is lower, the dollar is stronger, and the US economy keeps plugging along. I'm teaching computer systems management at Drexel and marketing research at Villanova University as well as undertaking active consulting business activities. Recently, we have published an article on R&D planning in the IEEE Transactions of Engineering Management (Feb. 1998). I plan to summarize that article in an upcoming newsletter.
We have been debating whether we should make the newsletter an annual versus a biannual publication. I appreciate any comments and contributions from you. You can get in touch with me at Custom Decision Support, Inc., Phone (610) 793-3520. Fax (610) 793-2531 or E-Mail at email@example.com

Our tanning option, Melanotan 2 likewise called MT2 is a widely distinguished service that will certainly promote the body's all-natural tanning capacities, which then permits you to tan with marginal sunshine
What exactly is Melanotan and how does the tanning service work?
Melanotan, having two various variations, Melanotan I and Melanotan II, and similar tanning injectables overcome increasing the levels of a pigment in your skin known as melanin. Melanin forms a vital part of your body's natural action to the harsh sun, and when the levels of this pigment are increased, this results in the skin darkening in colour, also called tanning. The two various types of Melanotan (and other tanning injections) are watered down with sterilized water prior to they are injected.
Melanotan is essentially a synthetic version of the hormonal agent melanocortin. This hormone, which is secreted by the pituitary gland located at the base of your brain, aids in regulating your body's growth and advancement and is a crucial element in preserving your energy levels1. Melanocortin help in stimulating and accelerating your body's production of the skin darkening pigment, melanin. This pigment absorbs the ultraviolet radiation from the sun and for that reason darkens the skin. When Melanotan is administered by means of injections over a time period (normally the course of a few weeks as recommended by Melanotan distributors), the item will semi-permanently darken your skin as though you were tanning in the sun.
Melanotan was initially developing during the 1980s by a team of scientists from the University of Arizona for the treatment of skin conditions such as erythropoietic protoporphyria and vitiligo, both of which are conditions that impact skin sensitivity (to sunlight in particular) and appearance.
Melanotan has actually likewise been utilized in the treatment of impotence, thus among the negative effects being spontaneous erections, however we will get to that in the future.
Through promoting greater levels of melanin in the skin, Melanotan has the ability to reduce a few of the signs associated with the above-mentioned conditions and enable those who struggle with them to lead a more regular and healthy life.
Because of the item's medicinal uses, media attention followed and the general public quickly caught onto the possible advantages of the drug for visual functions. Melanotan as a natural type of photoprotection, indicating it aids in avoiding the damage of the sun, was also touted as a method to get tanned without the danger of skin cancer. This thinking resulted in the item being marketed and utilized as a way of life drug. A lot of tan injection providers will advise some degree of sun or UV direct exposure as part of the tanning process, as such a number of Melanotan users will likewise invest at least an hour a week in the sun or on sunbeds in order to speed up the procedures and darken their tans even more.
** My Medication Memo – Photoprotection describes a biochemical process that aids in the healing from sun damage in organisms, assisting these organisms to deal with any molecular damage they have undergone from being exposed to sunlight
There is some logic behind this global trend in the concept of achieving the look and appeal of tanned skin (through the boost in melanin) with really little exposure (and typically no direct exposure) to the sun. It is thought that when you have more melanin in your body, you have more protection from the sun and its UV radiation and in turn, a much healthier complexion. It is argued that these items could, therefore, protect a variety of individuals from sun damage and lower their danger of melanoma. Cancer malignancy is a kind of skin cancer that happens when melanin-forming cells join together typically apparent in the modification or development to an existing mole.
Nevertheless, the medical community has voiced concern over the number of clients providing with new cancer malignancy lesions which appear to coincide with using Melanotan and tanning injections. Whether there is a direct causal link is still uncertain as the majority of these patients likewise hang out in direct sunshine or on tanning beds. More data and research studies are needed to develop a direct causal link between using Melanotan and the advancement of melanoma.
Another concern voiced by dermatologists is that tanning injection's capability to darken the skin and moles hinders the detection of cancer malignancy.
What is the difference in between the various types of Melanotan?
Melanotan I is frequently considered as the much better option to Melanotan II as the side effects are far less and less extreme than those connected with Melanotan II. Melanotan II is far more extreme, however, this type of the drug typically yields higher lead to regards to tan density.
What are the various kinds of administration of Melanotan and other tanning brands?
Melanotan and many of the competitor items that have actually followed are plainly offered in injectable types where the user will require to inject the solution into a layer of fat (usually adjacent to the marine) using a specific dose for a certain amount of time.
Melanotan also can be found in the form of a nasal spray for those who do not do needles. Some business have actually likewise established a microneedle patch that you put on your arm for a couple of hours. The two alternatives to the injectables are not always as reliable and do not ensure the same outcomes.
Melanotan in WikiPedia
Melanotan II is a synthetic analogue of the peptide hormone α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that stimulates melanogenesis and increases sexual arousal.
It was under development as drug candidate for female sexual dysfunction and erectile dysfunction but clinical development ceased by 2003, and as of 2018, no product containing melanotan II was marketed and all commercial development had ceased.
Unlicensed, untested, or fraudulent products sold as "melanotan II" are found on the Internet, and purported to be effective as "tanning drugs", though side effects such as uneven pigmentation (it makes already uneven pigmentation more noticeable), new nevi (moles), and darkening or enlargement of existing moles have been reported and have led to medical authorities discouraging its use. There has been no scientific study into the long term and permanent side effects the use of this peptide may cause.
