Microsoft's Project xCloud will stream Xbox games to phones, tablets and more
Halo, Forza and more Xbox games are coming to phones and tablets through the service.
Microsoft revealed Monday that it's testing an Xbox game streaming service, currently called Project xCloud.
The company demonstrated its work on the service so far in a video showing Forza and Halo, games designed to be run on an Xbox One console, being played on Android phones and tablets . The games work both with an Xbox wireless controller paired over Bluetooth and using a touchscreen overlay when there's no controller present.
"Project xCloud's state-of-the-art global game-streaming technology will offer you the freedom to play on the device you want without being locked to a particular device," wrote Kareem Choudhry, Microsoft's corporate vice president for cloud gaming , in a blog post.
Public tests of Microsoft Project xCloud are set to begin in 2019. Microsoft said the tests will help it "learn and scale with different volumes and locations." The company has also built custom server hardware that hosts components from multiple Xbox Ones, with plans to scale up as needed.
When asked if the test will include non-Xbox games such as those on PC or mobile, a Microsoft spokesperson said the company isn't revealing specific games, but added it hopes the service will allow streaming without having to involve a game developer.
"Our vision is for gamers to have access to the same content via game streaming that they do on other platforms, without any additional work required by the game developer," the spokesperson said.
An Xbox game-streaming service of some kind was first teased by Microsoft at its E3 2018 press event in June. Game-streaming services themselves aren't new: Sony has its PlayStation Now service; Ubisoft is partnering with Google to have Assassin's Creed Odyssey stream in the Chrome browser; and Capcom's Resident Evil 7 is available on Nintendo Switch in Japan via streaming.
But internet speeds, which vary greatly around the world, are often a challenge for these services. For now, Xbox has its Game Pass service, which currently only supplies downloadable games to its subscribers. The PlayStation Now service last month began supporting downloadable games.

All true believers of our Savior Jesus have one thing in common; we are ready to leave this sin-filled, evil planet and begin our eternity with Him. Unfortunately, there are more people who reject the Savior than those who are believers, and they are caught up with the so-called "pleasures and treasures" of this earth. Whether they realize it or not, they are committing themselves to spending eternity separated from Him in total misery. (all emphasis mine)
One word used by believers is "Maranatha," which is translated as "Come, Lord Jesus." There are two Bible verses with this message in them, 1 Corinthians 16:22 and Revelation 22:20. The first; "If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, Come!" and then; "He who testifies to these things says, 'Surely I am coming soon.' Amen. Come, Lord Jesus." (ESV)
Most prophecy experts and even novices such as myself believe that day is soon to be upon us. There have been movies and books about the event known as the "Harpazo," which translates as "caught up" or "caught away." It is also commonly known as the "Rapture," or the carrying away of the church from earth to Heaven. The Bible tells of this in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 and 1 Corinthians 15:51-53.
Before going further, Jesus will not be coming to call up any particular organized evangelical group, nor will it only be for those who attend services in any particular building. Jesus' "church" is made up of people who serve God, and they will be found inside and outside formal churches. There are those who will receive and accept the gift Jesus provided that will never have been inside a formal church service, yet they will spend eternity with Him.
Matthew 16:15-18; "He said to them, 'But who do you say that I am?' Simon Peter replied, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God.' And Jesus answered him, 'Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in Heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.'"
The "rock" was Peter's confession that Jesus was the "Christ," meaning one who is anointed or the Messiah. All who are to become a part of Jesus' flock (John 10) must believe Jesus is our Savior and must accept the free gift that was given at Calvary. The only "ritual" is to confess we are all sinners and know that only Jesus can give forgiveness for our sins. Finally, we must call out to Him to be our Savior. As you will see, these fit the ABCs of Salvation.
There are religions that state you must pass certain rituals, recite scripted lines, and provide some form of funding to become a member. This is why Jesus says the way is "hard" that leads to Salvation. It's difficult for some to believe that it is actually child-like simple to be one of His flock.
Ephesians 2:8-9; "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast."
In 1 John chapters 2-5, we're told about false prophets and antichrists being among us. They were here even in the very first century of this age. Jesus Himself stated that near the end of this age, they would increase in numbers and activity (Matthew 24:5; 11-12 and also Luke 21). This is taking place today in this world, for those who know to look for it.
Isaiah 5:20 has even entered some previously Bible-based churches. "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter."
Messages are being given to provide the members a "feel-good" attitude, and sin is conveniently being left out. In fact, what God called abominations are now said to have "evolved" into accepted actions. Whatever relationships between two or more people, with age not being a barrier, are somehow no longer sinful in the eyes of these groups. After all, they believe the Bible is nothing but ancient writings over 2,000 years old, and the old "myths" couldn't possibly be applied to today's world.
The turning away from anything to do with Jesus is obvious, especially among the younger generations. Even the people in our government, who are supposed to be there for our best interests, are now steadily moving toward the new world order and the one-world government. The day is almost here when the ultimate antichrist and false prophet will appear on the scene.
When Jesus said, "the gates of hell shall not prevail against it," the church today, His true flock, will not go through the 7-year wrath/tribulation. God promised this in 1 Thessalonians 1:10, 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 and Revelation 3:10.
As Joshua stated in Joshua 24:15, he and his house would serve the Lord. I firmly state here that in our house, we trust the Lord completely, that His promises are true, and because we have received and accepted His Son, we will not be here for the worst 7-year period of time this world has ever experienced.
All of us have sinned and fall short of the glory of the Lord (Romans 3:23). The penalty for our sins is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through His Son Jesus (Romans 6:23). I mentioned the ABCs of Salvation. Please go to Romans 10:9-13. Then John 3:18 and 1 John 5:12. Follow this with John 14:6 and Acts 4:12, and finally, Romans 8:1. The last verse is God's absolute covenant with all believers because "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."
A – admit you are a sinner as we all are (Romans 3:23).
B – believe Jesus died for all our sins, and God raised Him from the grave to conquer sin and death. Jesus is the only way to Heaven (John 14:6).
C – Call on the name of the Lord, and you will be saved (Romans 10:13).
Do not complicate what God has provided for us. No one will be turned away, if they will truly call out to His Son to be their Savior.
All who refuse to receive and accept the Gift given by Jesus, paid for with His precious sinless blood, will be at the Great White Throne Judgment of Revelation 20:11-15.
All world events today are right on target to enter the Tribulation. You can guarantee that you will not be here for that terrible time by becoming a member of Jesus' flock. Today would not be too early to call on Him, for the "call" for us to rise up to meet Him in the air could be at any moment now. Once you have called out and received and accepted His forgiveness, you too will be saying:
Maranatha – Come, Lord Jesus!

Bulldogs Overview (English Bulldog or British Bulldog)
The bulldog is a type of domestic dog with a wrinkly, usually dark-colored coat. The term comes from the French bouledogne, a diminutive form of "bull-dog", and was probably first used to describe the English Bulldog.
Bulldogs are known for their obstinacy and aggressiveness. As they grow older, they can be difficult to housebreak, but they make devoted companions nonetheless.
While bulldogs have been commonly used as nanny dogs in many parts of the world, it is not recommended that you adopt one as your family pet unless you plan on taking care for them for their entire life span.
Can bulldogs give birth naturally
Bulldog's are typically bred and raised in captivity, but they have been known to give birth naturally.
Some bulldogs have given birth without the help of a human. This can be because some dogs are trained to give birth at the right time of their cycle or due to natural ability.
There is no information about when and where these dogs gave birth naturally and what their offspring was like since there is not much data available about natural births for bulldogs.
5 Ways to Help Your Dog Give Birth Naturally
An animal birth is a beautiful thing and can be a long and difficult process for mom and pup. The first step to ensuring that the animal birth goes smoothly is to understand what you need to do before the big day arrives.
1) Find out if your vet has recommended any special diet or food that must be given to your dog at specific times during pregnancy and labor.
2) Ask your vet about any vitamins or supplements they recommend.
3) Get comfortable with the idea of an animal birth by researching online what birth usually looks like for various animals, including dogs, cats, horses, pigs, etc.
4) Keep in mind that it's normal for your canine friend to have mild discomfort during labor- just keep them calm and help them relax as much as possible
5) Increasing the daily walks can help your female bulldog to become more comfortable with her body and her new job.
Why is it Necessary to Help a Dog Give Birth?
A dog can give birth for many reasons. Some of them are complicated and may require a lot of work and skill from the vet. Some of these issues are breed specific and need a vet with an extensive knowledge in that particular breed.
The average dog delivery takes about 20 minutes, but the time varies from dog to dog depending on their size.
Dogs usually give birth at home, but some breeds may require a hospital setting to ensure that everything goes smoothly and safely for both mom and baby.
There are many reasons why it is necessary to help a dog give birth, some examples include: breed specific issues, complications with natural births, medical conditions where you want to be involved in the process more closely than just watching the mother do her thing.
It is necessary to help a dog give birth because a dog's body is not built to give birth and it can be dangerous for the mother and the puppies. if the mother is not helped she can get injured as she gives birth. The owner may also be putting their own health at risk if they are helping the mother.
5 Tips to Keep Your Bulldog Healthy & Alert During Pregnancy
As the time of pregnancy is getting closer, here are five tips that you should follow to keep your pregnant bulldog healthy and alert.
1. Ensure food and water is always available
2. Make sure your dog's bedding is clean and safe
3. Keep your doggie inside at all times
4. Monitor them constantly during the first few weeks of pregnancy to ensure they are good with their new size
5. Ensure that they are getting enough exercise.
What To Do If You Witness a Dog Giving Birth Naturally
In nature, animal births can be a traumatic experience for the mother and the new parents. However, in some cases, it is not uncommon for these births to happen naturally.
If you have witnessed a dog giving birth and you are feeling anxious or overwhelmed from the experience, these are some steps that you can take to help yourself feel better:
1) Take time to do an objective assessment of your feelings. Did anything happen physically to you? Did the dog give birth in your presence? Did the dog give birth while you were petting them?
2) Consider whether or not this was an emergency situation that required immediate attention- did someone need help?
3) Evaluate how much help you could provide without being present. You might also call your Vet for advise.
Surgical Birth Options for Large Bulldogs
Large Bulldogs can be risky to have a natural birth and it is not always possible to deliver puppies naturally.
The following are the major surgical options for dog births.
Surgical Birth Options for Large Dogs
- The most common surgical birth options for large dogs is a cesarean or Cesarean Abortio. This method of delivery is done arthroscopically, which means the veterinarian will use a camera to view the inside of the dog's body and operate from there.
- Some other methods include inducing labor with drugs, letting the mother's body work on its own, or using a vacuum extractor on the dog's cervix.
In conclusion, the bulldog is a domesticated breed of dog. They are usually bred for their character and characteristics, with a variety of coats, sizes, and shapes. They have been bred with the intent to be companion dogs rather than guard dogs.
Bulldog puppies can give birth naturally, but it is not common to see a bulldog pregnant. This is because the dog cannot make enough hormones or their bodies are not efficient enough.
Everything You Need to Know About Bulldogs
Bulldog Overview, Appearance, Temрerаment & Facts
When you see a classic English bulldog, you know what you're looking at. He has the typical characteristics of a big-boned, silly, and loving man.
Even though bulldogs were initially developed as fighting dogs, and later became a worldwide emblem of toughness and tenacity, the bulldog has evolved into a peaceful, family-oriented dog that simply enjoys lying in his bed and watching the world go by.
Additionally, you're likely to see this gorgeous breed on television, patrolling the sidelines at a college football or basketball game, or in movies, where they're famous for their efforts to keep an inflated Aunt Marge from drifting away. It's no surprise that the bulldog is the fifth most popular breed in the United States, as evidenced by its widespread presence.
Bulldog's Factual Information
The bulldоg's shоrt, heаvy stаture is а result оf seleсtive breeding tо асhieve this аррeаrаnсe. While being utilized in bullfighting, their stосky, сlоse-tо-the-eаrth fоrm mаde it mоre diffiсult fоr the bulls tо fliр them when they were оn the grоund.
Beсаuse оf the bulldоg's nаrrоw nоse, it саn be neаrly imроssible fоr him tо squeeze his entire tоngue inside his mоuth соmfоrtаbly, whiсh is why yоu'll оften find him with his tоngue hаnging оut аnd а silly smile оn his fасe.
When it соmes tо bulldоg соlоring, white is оne оf numerоus соlоrs thаt hаve been reсоgnized аs being раrt оf the stаndаrd соlоring. Bulldоgs аre аvаilаble in а vаriety оf соlоrs, inсluding blue/grаy, lilас, аnd blасk, thоugh they аre nоt аllоwed fоr соmрetitiоn.
Bulldog's Аррeаrаnсe
When sоmeоne mentiоns the wоrd "bulldоg," it's likely thаt the first thing thаt sрrings tо mind is аn English bulldоg (аlsо knоwn аs а British bulldоg). They аre а mid-sized dоg weighing 40–50 роunds, with rоbust, shоrt limbs аnd а brоаd, blосky tоrsо. They're а bunсh оf rоbust dogs.
Their mаssive underbite is а defining сhаrасteristiс, аnd the рuррies will оссаsiоnаlly "hаng а fаng."
The оverhаnging skin, nоse rорe, аnd wrinkled fасe аre аdditiоnаl сhаrасteristiсs оf this sрeсies. English bulldоgs аre knоwn fоr sitting lоw tо the grоund аnd hаving wide shоulders, twо quаlities thаt served them well during their dоg fighting раst in the United Kingdоm.
In its breed stаndаrd, the Аmeriсаn Kennel Сlub (АKС) sрeсifies fоur соlоrs: red, white, fаwn, аnd fаllоw, with red being the mоst соmmоn. They саn be аny соmbinаtiоn оf these, аs well аs brindling, tiсking, оr blасk mаsks, аmоng оther things. Their eyes shоuld аlwаys be а dаrk brоwn оr blасk соlоr tо distinguish them.
Аn English bulldоg is distinсt frоm the оther members оf the bulldоg fаmily, аnd yоu will nоt be mistаken fоr оne. The Frenсh bulldоg is smаller thаn the English bulldоg аnd hаs lоng bаt eаrs.
The Аmeriсаn bulldоg is аn аthletiс аll-рurроse wоrking dоg with lоnger legs аnd а slimmer bоdy thаt is well suited fоr guаrding, hunting, аnd fаrming duties, аmоng оther things.
There аre severаl tyрes оf bulldоgs, but the Оlde English Bulldоgge is the leаst соmmоn.
It is а lаrger аnd mоre musсulаr mix оf English bulldоgs, рit bull terriers, Аmeriсаn bulldоgs, аnd bullmаstiffs.
Bulldоgs dоn't require а lоt оf рhysiсаl асtivity, but thаt dоesn't meаn they dоn't enjоy рlаying! Even fоr shоrt рeriоds оf time, а well-sосiаlized bulldоg is аdventurоus аnd рlаyful—even if it is оnly fоr brief рeriоds оf time.
Bulldоgs Neсessities For Dаily Life
Bulldоgs аre а lаid-bасk breed thаt рrefers tо sрend mоst оf its time indооrs. Beсаuse оf their minimаl energy requirements, they саn thrive in аn араrtment setting. They dоn't require а lаrge yаrd tо run аrоund аnd rоmр beсаuse they'll beсоme exhаusted аfter 10 minutes оf рlаying аnd will need tо tаke а nар.
The bulldоg is extremely аffeсtiоnаte tоwаrd yоungsters аnd is willing tо рut uр with аll оf the yаnking аnd tugging thаt соmes with them.
If they аre bоthered, they will never exрress their disрleаsure; insteаd, they will simрly wаlk аwаy.
Hоwever, desрite the fасt thаt this breed dоes nоt bаrk exсessively, they аre exсellent guаrd dоgs whо mаy deter intruders simрly by their рresenсe.
They аre аlsо renоwned fоr their brаvery, аnd they аre reсоgnized fоr рrоteсting their lоved оnes nо mаtter whаt. Bulldоgs like а relаxed lifestyle, whether it's lying оn the соuсh оr snuggling оntо yоur lар (yes, even аt 50 роunds).
The fасt thаt they аre а brасhyсeрhаliс breed, whiсh meаns thаt they hаve а wide heаd аnd а flаt fасe, саn mаke exerсise diffiсult fоr them. Beсаuse оf their lаrge heаds аnd сhests, they аre terrible swimmers, аnd they shоuld be regulаrly mоnitоred аrоund wаter tо аvоid beсоming drоwned.
Bulldоg's Care and Grooming
Beсаuse а bulldоg's соаt is sо fine аnd shоrt, it оnly requires brushing оnсe а week оn аverаge. The mоre yоu brush yоur hаir, the less hаir yоu'll find оn yоur furniture аnd сlоthing, аnd viсe versа.
Mаintаining a bulldog's fасe сleаnliness аnd dryness is mоre сruсiаl thаn brushing beсаuse he hаs sо mаny wrinkles thаt they might beсоme irritаted оr infeсted if nоt рrорerly саred fоr.
Trim his nаils оnсe оr twiсe а mоnth, оr until yоu саn't heаr him сliсking his heels аgаinst the flооr. Keeрing yоur teeth сleаn оn а weekly оr dаily bаsis will helр yоu аvоid unneсessаry vet арроintments in the future.
Desрite the fасt thаt the bulldоg dоes nоt enjоy exerсise, he nevertheless requires it in оrder tо mаintаin а heаlthy weight beсаuse he is рrоne tо weight gаin.

Bulldоg оwners must mаintаin аttentiоn аnd tоlerаnсe with their рuррies due tо the fасt thаt they might be lethаrgiс. Ассоrding tо Hоdgsоn, "the best trаining fоr а bulldоg is роsitive enсоurаgement, аs well аs раrtiсiраtiоn when they hаve the energy аnd interest in it."
It is imроrtаnt tо remember thаt when wоrking with bulldоgs thаt nоthing shоuld ever be рushed, reрetitiоus, оr heаvy hаnded in оrder tо аvоid them beсоming bullish.

Histоry оf the Bulldоg
The mоdern-dаy bulldоg reрresents а signifiсаnt evоlutiоn frоm his fоrefаthers. Bulldоgs were utilized fоr the sроrt оf "bull bаiting" in Englаnd during the 13th сentury, ассоrding tо the Аmeriсаn Kennel Сlub. Befоre there were рrоfessiоnаl sроrts, this bаrbаriс асtivity wоuld drаw lаrge сrоwds оf рeорle whо wоuld wаger mоney оn it.
Bulldоgs wоuld аttemрt tо рin а bull tо the grоund with their роwerful bite, whiсh wоuld be аttemрted by оne оr mоre bulldоgs.
These eаrly bulldоgs were slightly tаller аnd mоre musсulаr thаn the mоdern English bulldоg, аnd оnly the mоst аggressive individuаls were seleсted fоr breeding.
Ассоrding tо the Аmeriсаn Kennel Сlub, the bulldоg's stubbоrn nаture derives frоm its раst in the ring, where they develорed а high раin tоlerаnсe аnd fоught until the very end.
Bull bаiting wаs nоt illegаl in Englаnd until 1835, аnd bulldоgs were оn the verge оf extinсtiоn even аfter their use fоr this reаsоn wаs disсоntinued. Mаny рeорle аррreсiаted the breed's strength, drive, аnd lооks, аnd they didn't wаnt tо see it beсоme extinсt beсаuse оf their аdmirаtiоn.
Unfоrtunаtely, there were breeders thаt dediсаted their life tо re-engineering the bulldоg, whiсh wаs fоrtunаte. In оrder tо ensure thаt оnly the dосile dоgs remаined, they оnly reрrоduсed with the even-temрered рuрs. The Аmeriсаn Kennel Сlub (АKС) first reсоgnized the English bulldоg in 1886.
The dоg, whiсh оriginаted in Englаnd, hаs соme tо reрresent the рeорle оf thаt соuntry. The dоg wаs symbоlized during Wоrld Wаr II by British Рrime Minister Winstоn Сhurсhill, whо is renоwned with mаintаining а firm griр оn роwer thrоughоut the соnfliсt. Аnd, well, he did hаd the аррeаrаnсe оf а bulldоg.
In tоdаy's wоrld, the bulldоg is оften regаrded аs оne оf the gentlest аnd mоst сhild-friendly dоgs оn the рlаnet.

Volunteers and officials gathered Wednesday night for the annual Point-in-Time (PIT) Count. Folks traveled from all of Philly's zip codes to tally and survey Philiadephians experiencing street homelessness.
The data from Wednesday night will be submitted to Washington in late April. It will also be made available to the public. Philly will also be holding a youth count day on Jan. 23.
In a release, the Office of Homeless Services (OHS) Director Liz Hersh announced that National figures show that Philly has the lowest street homeless population among America's large cities.
"The reason we're able to progress is because of the hard work of our amazing provider community, the dedication of volunteers and workers, the leadership from City Council and the Mayor's Office, and the collaborative, can-do approach of Philadelphians," said OHS Director Liz Hersh said in a press release. "They say we're gritty, which might be true, but we're also a caring, compassionate people who truly care and work together. This kind of community mindset helps explain why, in a city still reckoning with a relatively high poverty rate, we simultaneously have the lowest street homeless population. We care about each other."
In national PIT Count data released by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), there was a 25-percent reduction in family homelessness over the past three years. Overall there was an 86-percent reduction in the city's homeless growth since 2016.
"Since 2016, we've reduced family homelessness by 25 percent. That's over 200 families. Simultaneously, and thanks to data like the kind we're collecting tonight, we know we've reduced the street homeless growth rate by 86% over the past three years," Hersh said. "Now, we're adding more long-term housing for the most vulnerable than ever before in Philly history. There's so much work to be done, but it's clear that what we're doing is working. We just have to keep going and growing. Staying stationary isn't enough."
At the Wednesday night kick-off, HUD Mid-Atlantic Regional Administrator Joe DeFelice presented Philly with $32 million to help fund programs next year. HUD does require PIT count to develop a national strategy and to help make big decisions relating to the funding.
"In Philadelphia, HUD is renewing critically-needed funding to nearly 100 existing homeless programs while supporting new projects," DeFelice said in a release. "This year's funding includes an additional $295,000 which will go a long way in advancing ongoing efforts to reduce homelessness in the city."
According to a release, some of the new programs being funded by HUD are listed below:
-Women Against Abuse's Safe at Home project providing homes for domestic violence survivors, which addresses the types of unique housing crises survivors often encounter but that are difficult to resolve.
-Catholic Social Services' Visitation Homes project converting an existing program into a permanent supportive housing program to increase the long-term housing stock in Philly's system.
-Pathways to Housing PA's Street to Home 2 project, which reflects 51 units added to the area long-term housing stock to assist single men and women living on the street and struggling with substance use disorder achieve housing stability and improve their health, leveraging Medicaid-funded behavioral health supports.

Assignment #40
Heal yourself.
"Self-Cure for Lovesickness"
John Kierulf
London, UK
Lovesickness seems to be an underestimated debility. I was struck with it rather suddenly and unexpectedly in October 2006, and have not recovered fully since. But the following regime has proven useful.
[1] Read technical manuals of some kind -- ones that would interest you anyway. Try to become absorbed in as much detail as possible. In my case, revising the Indo-European background of Sanskrit and Greek morphology proved useful.
[2] Go for longish walks, especially if the weather is challenging. I have found it helpful if it is especially windy, or the path is steep and clogged with exposed roots. These circumstances in combination would be exquisite; only a gibbous moon glancing through a rapidly scudding rack of threatening cloud could enhance the overall effect.
[3] Listen to music. This works only if you really listen, I mean listen closely. To do this, unless you have a conductor's ears, the music should be relatively simple. I recommend string quartets (Haydn, of course, but also Beethoven and Bloch). Smoking a cigar can help.
[4] Write. There are at least two kinds of writing that can help here: so-called 'creative' writing and expository. But at times such as these, when you are trying to exorcise the love demon, you will find them difficult to distinguish. Don't write all your love poems to or about your loved one (and never send them all to her/him). In inverse but similar fashion, don't write only about things not related to love.
[5] Cook elaborate and strange new dishes, preferably ones involving nuts, fruits, and spices from at least three different major cultural areas of the globe. Serve them, in a friendly, expansive way, to guests who normally do not eat experimentally.
In time -- although you will still be in love -- you will doubtless recover from lovesickness, in the sense that you will live. Unless something else gets you.

How To Spot A Real Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair
The Mid Century Modern Egg chair was designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1958 for the SAS Royal Hotel (now named the Radisson) in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was originally made by the Republic of Fritz Hansen and was designed in classic Jacobsen style, with state-of-the-art material, and is still being manufactured down to this day by Fritz Hansen. The Egg Chair is believed to be inspired by Eero Saarinen's "Womb chair", from which it shares very similar traits. The Egg Chair is great because it guarantees a bit of privacy in otherwise public spaces, and is ideal for lounges and waiting areas as well as in the home. There are many mid century modern arm chairs that have similar traits to the Egg chair actually, such as the Swan chair, Arne Jacobsen's plywood "7" chair, the Ant Chair, the Cigar Chair, the Grand Prix-chair, the Pot Chair, the Drop Chair and the Giraffe Chair. Like the Swan Chair, Arne Jacobsen also designed the Egg Chair into a couch.
While the Swan Sofa is still in production, only a small amount of Egg sofas were ever made. A few quite interesting reasons for the limited production of the mid-century modern Egg couch is 1. the difficulty involved in manufacturing it, and 2. a big design flaw: the couch is too big to be covered by two complete cow-hides, which is actually barely possible even with the Egg-chair. This leaves a very obvious stitching down the center of the couch. This issue was solved by manufacturing the chair and sofa with fabric rather than leather, which is why you find a large amount of Egg Chairs in stunning orange, light blue, black, teal, green, and yellows.
Since its conception, there have been hundreds of different types of mid century modern egg chairs and hanging egg chairs inspired by Arne Jacobsen's design. The Egg chair was first conceived in Arne Jacobsen's garage, and was originally cast in plaster. Nowadays the synthetic shell is padded with foam and covered with fabric or various leather products, resting on a star-shaped aluminium base.
How To Tell An Authentic Egg Chair Vs. Egg Chair Reproduction
The first step in telling the difference between authentic mid-century modern furniture and mid century modern reproductions is to look for a makers mark or label. Looking for a label on an Egg Chair can help you determine if it is an original, and also figure out what year the egg chair was made. Newer pieces will have a Republic of Fritz Hansen label attached to the fabric. From 2006 through 2010, a red tag was used. Pieces made after 2010 will have a brown tag. If the chair was made prior to 2006 you'll have to look to the base for a tag or mark. There might be a sticker on the cylinder that attaches the top to the base, saying "Made in Denmark by Fritz Hansen", it will also have a date indicating when the chair was produced. The look of the labels changed slightly over the years, but the information included is essentially the same. First edition chairs made in the late 1950s can have a FH Made in Denmark stamp directly onto the leather as well. It's possible the Egg Chair you are checking on is an authentic while not having a sticker or tag (both could have been removed or damaged over the years) if you find that there are no stickers or labels present, look on the very bottom for a raised serial number, the FH logo, and "Made in Denmark" molded directly into the metal.
Another way at checking a vintage egg chair against a egg chair knock off is to check the way it's made. Check out the stitching, material used, and size. The level of craftsmanship on an original Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair will be top notch. An original chair manufactured Fritz Hansen will have a distinctive way it's stitched together, almost like a wave pattern. Interesting fact actually the stitching on both the Egg Chair and the Swan Chair is they are both done entirely by hand. Egg Chair Reproductions made by other companies are not usually stitched as evenly, and some have a tuck and roll seam, a method where a small roll of fabric is visible between the layers of a seam.
You might notice that the upholstery sticks up a bit at the seams rather than laying smoothly. The fabric should also be taught and smooth on a newer Egg Chair, as in there shouldn't be any excess if you try to grab a bit of upholstery between your fingers anywhere on the chair. Exceptions to the fabric and stitching test are possible if the chair has been reupholstered at a later date so don't use any one method when testing the authenticity of a chair. In older chairs made of leather, however, the material can stretch a bit with heavy use, so it can still be original even with a few loose spots.Additionally, leather chairs will be made using only two large pieces of premium hide wrapping the chair. A seam down the back is an indicator that your leather Egg Chair is not an original.
The dimensions of a reproduction chair are usually different from an authentic. An original Egg Chair designed by Jacobsen, comes in at 43 inches high, just about 34 inches wide and bang on 31 inches in depth. The base of an authentic Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair will also have 4 prongs, any more or less and its a reproduction. If you give an authentic Arne Jacobsen Chair a spin it should have a very smooth spin to it. Most Egg Chair fakes will have a choppy awkward spin to them when you turn the actual chair.
How Much Is An Egg Chair Worth?
Whether new or old, an authentic Fritz Hansen Egg Chair is quite expensive. A new leather Egg Chair with footstool made by Fritz Hansen can be more then $20,000 when bought from a authorized dealer. The same setup in fabric can be over $10,000. Vintage and used versions can obviously be found for less, but older authentic egg chairs still sell in the thousands through dealers. My recommendation is find out how much your local Mid Century Modern stores and dealers in your area sell them for, that way you'll know what a good entry point is if you find one through conventional picker means like Craigslist, Garage Sale, Flea Market, Etc.
We hope this article will help you the next time you come across an Egg Chair. If you'd like to be notified the next time we put out an article please scroll to the bottom of this page and hit subscribe.

Deputy Senate President's kinsmen warn Buhari to stop persecuting their son
The protesters also said they would hold the President responsible for anything that happens to the Deputy Senate President
Recommended articles
Ekweremadu is on trial, along with the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, for allegedly forging the Senate standing order.
Daily Post reports that they said this during a protest in Awgu, Enugu state on Saturday, July 9, 2016.
The protesters also said they would hold the President responsible for anything that happens to the Deputy Senate President, adding that they will resist any attempt by the All Progressives Congress to remove him from office.
They also marched to the house of a lawmaker in the state, Hon. Toby Okechukwu, where they issued a communiqué saying:
"We, the people of Enugu-West Senatorial District of Enugu State, in a massively attended stakeholders rally in Awgu, headquarters of Enugu-West Senatorial District, today, July 9, 2016, reviewed the state of the nation, especially the politics of bitterness, nepotism, hate and crushing economic hardship, which a narrow cabal in the All Progressive Congress (APC), has unleashed on Nigerians since assuming the reins of power at the center.
In particular, we reviewed the recent politically-motivated trial of the Deputy President of the Senate and former Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament, Distinguished Senator Ike Ekweremadu, PhD, CFR, on trumped-up charge of forgery, which has added yet another disturbing dimension to the APC-led Federal Government's unabashed determination to continually harass and overrun our illustrious son and representative.
We noted, with dismay, that:
a) Since the re-election of Senator Ekweremadu as the Deputy President of the 8th Senate on 9th June 2015, the APC has neither hidden its hatred and disgust for the revered Senator nor its declared intention to get rid of him by "all means", not minding that the process, which produced him and, which was watched live by Nigerians on live television, was credible and transparent.
b) Many high-ranking members of the APC, including the incumbent Minister of Labour and Productivity, had at various times, while speaking about Ekweremadu's emergence, boasted that they have "so many ways to kill a rat".
c) While the current political trial did not come to us as a surprise, therefore, the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) is yet to tell the world how he generated the name of Senator Ekweremadu and Senator Bukola Saraki for trial when the petitioners, all Senators and National Assembly bureaucrats interrogated by the police, and indeed the police report itself did not mention or indict him and Senator Bukola Saraki in any way.
d) This kangaroo trial, which the Federal High Court, Abuja, on 28th June 2016, described as "an abuse of legal process", and which the great constitutional lawyer and elder statesman, Prof. Ben Nwabueze (SAN), has described as a "flagrant breach of separation of powers caused by ignorance" poses a grave danger to our democracy and national unity.
e) That this kangaroo trial has continued, although Hon. Justice Justice Gabriel Kolawole of the Federal High Court, Abuja, has expressed shock at the "desperate haste" to file criminal charges against the presiding officers of the Senate on 10th June 2016 in contempt of a subsisting suit (FHC/ABJ/CS/646/15) filed by Senator Gilbert Nnaji against the Inspector-General of Police and AGF, challenging the constitutionality of their action in prying into the internal affairs of the Senate.
f) That the AGF, Mr. Abubakar Malami, was a counsel to the defedants before his appointment as the AGF.
g) the learned judge's perception of this impunity "as steps taken which are beyond serving the 'public interest' by the commencement of a criminal trial in the FCT High Court in order to subvert the pending suits in the Federal High Court one of which has been fixed for 6/7/16".
h) The failure of Nigeria's security agencies to investigate the 17th November 2015 assassination attempt on Senator Ekweremadu, the nation's Number 5 citizen and the only son of the South East occupying any substantive position in Federal Government even though it was duly reported to them.
Following the above sad observations, we hereby:
1) Declare that Senator Ike Ekweremadu is a Senator of the Federal Republic, elected with an overwhelming mandate of his people and has remained one of Nigeria's brightest lawmakers who enjoys the confidence of his colleagues; on account of which he was re-elected the Deputy Senate President for an unprecedented third time.
2) Declare that his re-election into that position did not violate any known convention, practice, and the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
3) Declare that the desperation of this cabal within the APC-led Federal Government's desperation to get rid of Senator Ekweremadu by "all means" is hugely counter-productive and hold ramifying consequences for Nigeria's political stability and unity.
4) Declare that we will hold the APC-led Federal Government squarely responsible should anything untoward happen to Senator Ike Ekweremadu.
5) Condemn, in the strongest terms, this kangaroo trial of the Senate presiding officers and National Assembly bureaucracy in continued contempt for the rule of law, revered democratic principle of separation of power, court orders, which constitute a dangerous muscling of the judiciary, and "abuse of legal process" (in the words of Justice Kolawole) by the APC-led Federal Government.
6) Call on the APC-led Federal Government to, as a matter of urgency, refrain from this culture of political persecution and take immediate steps to arrest the unprecedented hardships faced by Nigerians in the past thirteen months, the nosedive of the naira, the menace of herdsmen who have turned every part of southern and Middle Belt of Nigeria to killing, raping, and maiming fields; the resurgence of restiveness in various parts of the country; the rising culture of inconclusive and poorly conducted elections; and the disturbing fast-diminishing of human rights and political freedoms.
7) Call on the international community to stop playing the ostrich in the face of this dangerous slide to dictatorship and anarchy as against the expected rule of law and democratic freedoms expected in the democracy, which they helped Nigerians to enthrone on 29th May 1999.
In standing up to be counted at this critical juncture in our national life, we want to aver that our observations, resolutions, and declarations, are anchored on a genuine sense of moral justice, patriotism, democratic ethos, and the verdict of history.
In more ways than one, our democracy is on trial, and we call on all patriotic lovers of democracy in this country and beyond to rise to the occasion and reject this cabal's determination to foist a reign of impunity
Upon Nigeria.
As our people say, let the kite perch, and let the eagle perch. But any, which wants to undo the other, may the almighty God break and clip its wings."
The chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), John Odigie-Oyegun, revealed that it is difficult to accept the emergence of a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) member - Ike Ekweremadu as the Deputy Senate President.

The Latest on the Republican plan to overhaul the tax code (all times local):
3:40 p.m.
President Donald Trump is making the case for a sweeping plan to overhaul the tax system for individuals and corporations. He calls it a "once in a generation" opportunity to cut taxes.
The president says in Indiana that he wants to cut taxes for middle-class families to make the system simpler and fairer.
Trump says his tax plan will "bring back the jobs and the wealth that have left our country." He says it's time for the nation to fight for American workers.
He's praising his vice president, Mike Pence, Indiana's former governor. Trump says, "it's time for Washington to learn from the wisdom of Indiana."
2:52 p.m.
A budget watchdog group in Washington says the new GOP tax plan could cost $2.2 trillion over the next 10 years.
The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget admits its estimate is very preliminary since so many details are unclear, but its take is that the plan contains about $5.8 trillion in tax cuts but only $3.6 trillion worth of offsetting tax increases. That $2.2 trillion would be added to the nation's $20 trillion debt.
That's more than the $1.5 trillion debt cost that has emerged in a deal among Senate Republicans.
Republicans controlling Congress initially promised that the overhaul of the tax code wouldn't add to the debt. The group also notes that the $2.2 trillion cost could grow by another $500 billion when interest costs are added in.
1:54 p.m.
President Donald Trump says he's always wanted to reduce the corporate tax rate to 20 percent — even though he said repeatedly he wanted to see it lowered to 15 percent.
Trump told reporters as he departed Washington for Indiana on Wednesday afternoon that a 20 percent rate was his "red line" and that it had always been his goal.
"In fact, I wanted to start at 15 so that we got 20," he said, adding: "20's my number."
Trump also denies the plan unveiled by the White House and congressional Republicans Wednesday would benefit the wealthy.
He says: "I think there's very little benefit for people of wealth."
Under the plan, corporations would see their top tax rate cut from 35 percent to 20 percent.
1:37 p.m.
A vocal group of the most conservative House Republicans has come out in support of a draft tax plan endorsed by both President Donald Trump and top congressional GOP leaders.
The House Freedom Caucus endorsement is noteworthy because it could ease House passage of a budget plan that's the first step to advancing the tax cut measure through Congress.
The group says the outline will allow workers to "keep more of their money," while simplifying the loophole-choked tax code and making U.S. companies more competitive with their foreign rivals.
The group had held up action on the budget measure as they demanded more details on taxes.
11:21 a.m.
President Donald Trump has two red lines that he refuses to cross on overhauling taxes: the corporate rate must be cut to 20 percent and the savings must go to the middle class.
Gary Cohn, the president's top economics aide, says any overhaul signed by the president needs to include these two elements.
Trump had initially pushed for cutting the 39.6 percent corporate tax rate to 15 percent.
The administration says that the benefits of any tax cut will not favor the wealthy, with Cohn saying that an additional tax bracket could be added to levy taxes on the top one percent of earners if needed.
11:20 a.m.
The Senate's top Democrat is blasting a new tax cut plan backed by President Donald Trump as a giveaway to the rich.
Sen. Chuck Schumer says Trump's plan only gives "crumbs" to the middle class, while top-bracket earners making more than a half-million dollars a year would reap a windfall.
The New York Democrat also blasted the plan for actually increasing the bottom tax rate from 10 percent to 12 percent, calling it a "punch to the gut of working Americans."
Schumer said the plan is little more than an "across-the-board tax cut for America's millionaires and billionaires."
The plan, to be officially released Wednesday afternoon, is the top item on Washington's agenda after the GOP failure to repeal the Obama health care law.
9:53 a.m.
A new Republican blueprint for overhauling the U.S. tax code employs the themes of economic populism that President Donald Trump trumpeted during the presidential campaign to win support from working-class voters.
A copy of the plan to be released later Wednesday says, "Too many in our country are shut out of the dynamism of the U.S. economy." That's led to what the plans says is "the justifiable feeling that the system is rigged against hardworking Americans."
The plan, obtained by The Associated Press, says the Trump administration and Congress "will work together to produce tax reform that will put America first."
The GOP plan for the first major rewrite of the U.S. tax code in 30 years also says corporations will be stopped from shipping jobs and capital overseas.
9:20 a.m.
President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans are proposing a tax plan that they say will be simple and fair.
In a document obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday, they outline a blueprint for almost doubling the standard deduction for married taxpayers filing jointly to $24,000, and $12,000 for individuals.
The plan calls for cutting the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 20 percent. The GOP proposal also calls for reducing the number of tax brackets from seven to three with a surcharge on the wealthiest Americans.
The plan also leaves intact the deduction for mortgage interest and charitable deductions.
The White House and Republicans plan a formal roll out later Wednesday.
4:26 a.m.
President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans are rolling out a sweeping plan to cut taxes for individuals and corporations, simplify the tax system, and likely double the standard deduction used by most Americans.
Months in the making, the plan meets a political imperative for Republicans to deliver an overhaul of the U.S. tax code after the failure of the health care repeal.
The public reveal of the plan was set for Wednesday. The day before, details emerged on Capitol Hill while Trump personally appealed to House Republicans and Democrats at the White House to get behind his proposal.

United Nations Operations in Somalia II (UNOSOM II) - DELIVERANCE
International Information
International Operation Name: United Nations Operations in Somalia II (UNOSOM II)
International Mission Name: United Nations Operations in Somalia II (UNOSOM II)
Mandating Organization:
United Nations Security Council Resolution 814, 26 March 1993 (Chapter VII)
United Nations Security Council Resolution 837, 6 June 1993
United Nations Security Council Resolution 897, 4 February 1994
Region Name: Africa
Location: Somalia
Mission Date: 26 March 1993 - 31 March 1995
Mission Mandate: In 1991, Siad Barré was overthrown as president of Somalia by a grouping of clan-based factions. In the resulting chaos, nearly one million Somalis became refugees and over five million faced starvation. Efforts by the United Nations and non-governmental agencies to provide humanitarian aid were met by thievery and looting. The United Nations Security Council authorized the United Nations Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM I) in April 1992; however, with a Chapter VI mandate and inadequate strength, the UNOSOM forces could not counter and control the bandits.
In November 1992 the United States offered to lead an operation to restore order and ensure the delivery of humanitarian supplies. The Security Council accepted the offer and, in Resolution 794 of 3 December, it approved the creation of the Unified Task Force (UNITAF). UNITAF forces arrived in Somalia on 9 December. They quickly restored order, and aid flowed again. Fourteen Somali factions agreed on a cease-fire and pledged to hand over their weapons to UNITAF.
UNITAF was only organized as a temporary expedient. The Secretary-General therefore planned a follow-on operation to UNOSOM I and to UNITAF. This would be a Chapter VII operation, designed to cover the entire country, whereas UNITAF's activity was limited primarily to the southern half. The Security Council passed Resolution 814 on 26 March 1993, thus creating the United Nations Operation in Somalia II (UNOSOM II). Its basic mandate was to maintain order by disarming the Somali factions, using force to preserve the peace, assisting in the flow of humanitarian aid and the operation of relief agencies, and assisting in the return of refugees and displaced persons.
UNOSOM II did not come into effect immediately. UNOSOM I was terminated on 30 April 1993, while a transition was required before UNOSOM II could take over the responsibilities from UNITAF. The date of transfer was set as 4 May, with most UNITAF forces making the transition to UNOSOM II.
As this was being arranged, a national reconciliation conference was held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, with 15 Somali political movements. With the agreement, signed on 27 March, all 15 parties indicated their intention to comply with the cease-fire of January 1993, to hand over their weapons to UNITAF and UNOSOM II, and to work together to create governments at national, regional and local levels.
Soon thereafter, however, it was clear that the faction led by "General" Muhamad Faarah Aideed would renege on its commitments. When UNOSOM II forces attempted to remove some weapons from an Aideed compound on 5 June, his forces attacked Pakistani UNOSOM II personnel, killing twenty-five and injuring fifty-four, with another ten reported missing. The victims were horribly mutilated and their corpses subjected to degrading treatment. Later, his militias would use women and children as human shields when attacking UNOSOM II forces and incite them to hurl rocks, grenades, and Molotov cocktails at the UN troops.
The UN responded with the Security Council resolving that UN forces could use all necessary force to punish those responsible for the attacks (Resolution 837, 6 June 1993). As a result, UNOSOM II forces began to attack Aideed compounds, storage sites, and clandestine facilities in air and ground operations on 12 June. UNOSOM II was also directed to detain Aideed – a clear indication of the Chapter VII nature of the operation.
The UNOSOM offensive was not the deterrent some hoped for. UN forces continued to be attacked by any number of the Somali factions in Mogadishu (and not just Aideed's militias), and although none of these attacks were individually costly, the cumulative casualty total became a matter of concern. On 3 October US Army Rangers launched an attack to capture key Aideed aides suspected of planning and leading both the 5 June attack on the Pakistanis and several (if not all) of the subsequent attacks on UNOSOM II personnel. The Rangers captured twenty-four such suspects, but in the effort to extricate themselves and their captives they came under intense attack. One American helicopter was shot down, and in the ensuing battle, eighteen US soldiers lost their lives before being rescued by Pakistani troops. As in other incidents, the American dead were subjected to degrading acts by the Somali militias, this time caught on film and broadcast by most television networks.
That proved to be the critical moment in Somalia for the international community. Although UNOSOM II's humanitarian efforts were bearing fruit – refugees had begun to return, hospitals were operating again, police were beginning to function, and the infrastructure was slowly being restored – the sheer brutality of their opponents began to influence opinion in some of the contributing countries. Belgium, France, and the United States all indicated that they would withdraw their contingents, in effect removing the security umbrella that had permitted UNOSOM II to succeed to the extent that it had. The UN desperately tried to get the security situation back on track, but until that was achieved UNOSOM II's operations were curtailed, the emphasis now being placed on consolidating its position in a few locations and thereby at least maintaining a presence.
By the end of October 1994, with the level of violence still escalating, a "few" locations had been reduced to three. Facing the inevitable – as unpalatable as that might be – a Security Council mission that visited Somalia late that month recognized that UNOSOM II had failed. Indeed, since no one requested an extension of its mandate beyond 31 March 1995, repatriation of the various national contingents actually began in December 1994, and the last UNOSOM II personnel left Somalia on 3 March 1995, almost a month early. By then, the Somali factions in Mogadishu had, at least for the moment, begun to reconcile, having arrived at a power-sharing agreement on 19 February. But the peace did not last.
UNOSOM II was withdrawn from Somalia in early March 1995, while the mandate lapsed at the end of the month.
Canadian Forces (CF) Information (DELIVERANCE)
Name: DELIVERANCE
Date: 4 May 1993 - 5 July 1993
CF Mission/Operation Notes: Canada's UNITAF contingent transferred to UNOSOM II when the former was shut down. The units involved included the Canadian Airborne Regiment Battle Group (CARBG), the Airlift Control Element (ALCE) and its Hercules aircraft, and 93 Rotary Wing Aviation Flight (93 RWAF). The CARBG numbered about 900, the majority being from the Canadian Airborne Regiment. The Royal Canadian Dragoons provided 130 people from "A" and "Recce" Squadrons and 1st Battalion, the Royal Canadian Regiment provided a mortar company. Personnel from 29 Field Squadron of No. 2 Combat Engineering Regiment, and 40 personnel from No. 2 Service Battalion provided support. The ALCE was composed of three Hercules aircraft and about 70 air and ground crew, operating from Nairobi, Kenya. 93 RWAF was composed of 89 personnel from No. 427 Tactical Helicopter Squadron in Petawawa. All continued to serve under the name Operation DELIVERANCE.
The CARBG, operating out of Belet Huen in west-central Somalia, continued its task of delivering humanitarian aid and disarming local militias, aided at times by local youths with whom they had developed friendly relations.
The Canadians fixed generators, rebuilt schools and hospitals, opened medical clinics and helped organize local relief committees. They also began identifying former members of the local police force who, once issued identification cards and uniforms, and paid with food, patrolled the streets with CARBG soldiers.
For its part, 93 RWAF had a large mandate – supporting the Canadian, Australian, Belgian and Italian contingents through reconnaissance flights (especially at night, to find armed bandit vehicles), medical evacuations and troop transport. They also helped in keeping open the "China Road", the only good route between Belet Huen and Matabaan in central Somalia, which had been cleared of mines and partly reconstructed by 29 Field Squadron and was routinely patrolled the CARBG.
The Canadians of the CARBG and 93 RWAF were withdrawn in early June. In a huge convoy, the CARBG drove to Mogadishu, where their vehicles were loaded onto a ship on 14 June. The helicopters of 93 RWAF returned on USAF C-5 Galaxy flights, with the last 93 RWAF personnel departing on 12 June. The ALCE redeployed most of the Op DELIVERANCE personnel out of Somalia. (As a precaution when the violence of 5 June occurred, the ALCE had evacuated over 200 Canadians to Nairobi on 9 June.) The last Op DELIVERANCE personnel left Africa on 5 July 1993.
The Hercules aircraft operating from Nairobi provided airlift support to both Operation DELIVERANCE and Operation CONSORT.

The under-appreciated hard drive gets torn apart and explained (video)
We don't know about you, but we generally don't give much thought to our hard drives or how they work. And that's a shame because, as you'll find out in the video after the break, they're veritable miracles of modern science. Bill Hammack, also known as Engineer Guy, takes us on a detailed tour of the inner workings of the ubiquitous hard disk drive -- from the Lorentz Force driven arm, to the head that floats a mere 10nm above the layered cobalt platters thanks to the wonders of aerodynamics. Maybe after this lesson in modern magnetic storage from Mr. Hammack you'll appreciate how much more there is to storing your collection of Mission of Burma b-sides than simply printing ones and zeros on a shiny, spinning thing.

New Newser Newsstand
Gingir Ghoststar had a gift for the Newser crew: a small newspaper stand. While we already have two stands, one to put on the wall and another to set on the ground, she thought they were a little large for certain places. For now, the one we have is "no transfer." But that will probably soon change.

Ankara: The death toll from Monday's devastating earthquakes climbed to 5,434 in Turkey and 812 in Syria on Tuesday February 7, while calls mounted to lift the US sanctions on Syria, state media reports say.
The number of injured rose to 31,777 and 1,449 respectively in Turkey and Syria, according to Turkish Health Minister Fahrettin Koca and the media office at the Aleppo governorate headquarters.
The death toll in both countries is expected to rise further as the rescue operations are hampered by bad weather, Xinhua news agency reported.
A powerful magnitude 7.7 earthquake struck Turkey's southern province of Kahramanmaras at 4.17 am local time on Monday, followed by a magnitude 6.4 quake a few minutes later in the country's southern province of Gaziantep and a magnitude 7.6 earthquake at 1:24 p.m. local time in Kahramanmaras.
Turkey's southern province of Hatay and Syria's northern Aleppo city suffered the biggest loss of lives, while Lebanon, Israel and Cyprus also felt the tremor.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared a three-month state of emergency on Tuesday in 10 of the country's provinces hit by the quakes.
The decision was taken in order to ensure that search and rescue activities and subsequent studies can be carried out quickly, he said at a press conference.

Two Angular Fine Adjustment Mounts
Two models of Mounts with 0-28 mm and 22-52 mm aperture are used for holding and adjustment about two angular coordinates of orthogonal or round optic. A clamping bar is used to fix optical elements, ensuring gentle but firm clutch.
Highly Stable Precision L-shaped Optical Mounts are designed on the basis of two angular adjustment mounts, and are produced of steel with black chemical finishing. Special figure spring is used in these Mounts for two purposes:
1. It provides pre-loading against the tips of two precise driving screws for elimination of backlash.
2. It ensures the absence of the roll coordinate.
The Highly Stable Precision L-shaped Optical Mounts have two M10x1 threaded mounting holes for mounting of the actuators. This allows to use all STANDA driving screws with these mounts. M6 tapped holes on the sides provide a wide variety of mounting configurations, either horizontal or vertical. A special L-shaped design of the Mounts provides for maximum clear aperture.

The entire nearly 17 years that Barry and I have been married has been one adventure after another. I married an undergraduate student. He skipped class one Friday to get hitched and was back in class the following Monday. Since then we have lived in at least 7 different places in four states. Shortly after Gabriel was born we started the trek east for medical school. As such, we've landed in the most beautiful and idyllic place I've ever lived. We have a beautiful home, amazing (wild) children, and a great life. There's something I just can't shake. RSL: Restless Life Syndrome.
Six years doesn't seem like a ton of time to have spent in one place. I have friends that have lived in the same area for their entire lives. My entire adult life has been somewhat nomadic. It feels weird, in a way, to have been so sedimentary for six years. Sure, 2020 has made us extra concrete with the whole global pandemic thing. But this RLS: Restless Life Syndrome has existed since long before the first case of Covid-19 was reported.
Since I have no intention of leaving my paradise, unless of course it's to a house on the Bay, I'm doing what any other RLS sufferer would do. Redecorating. I said before that Julian's man cave sort of sparked it. And my Restless Life Syndrome is just fanning the flame.
Last week I completely rearranged the bunk room. We will be replacing flooring in the next couple of weeks and then I'll do a full reveal. Stay tuned. I pretty much finished the kids' bathroom, though I still desperately want to paint the tile floor and buy a couple of the happy face bath mats. I have some hand towels en route from Amazon.
Do any of you suffer with RLS: Restless Life Syndrome? Are projects a healthy way of dealing with them? Is there a better way?? I honestly don't know. I'm so happy in my life and grateful for everything that I have. I just can't help this feeling of restlessness. Am I alone?

For the first time since its release, collections of Tiger Zinda Hai have gone below the 10 crore mark. Though there was some hope that the collections would stay on to be fantastic enough to register a double-digit score on the second Tuesday as well, that was not the case to be as the drop was evidenced.
Nonetheless, the film has more than just done its job and is still collecting good enough. Around 7.83 crore more came in and with this, the overall total has touched 280.62 crores. This also means that the film would now have to wait for the third weekend before it can pop the champagne for entering the 300 Crore Club. Had this milestone being reached in the second week itself, it would have been one tremendous feat for sure.
The Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer would continue to have an open third week too since there is no notable film arriving next. What has to be seen though is whether the 350 crore milestone would be eventually surpassed or not in the long run. Given the fact that it is practically the only Bollywood film in the running today, Yash Raj Films and Ali Abbas Zafar would indeed be looking forward to this as well.
*Estimates. Final numbers awaited
Note: All collections as per production and distribution sources

Residents of a neighborhood are distressed at the sight of dogs being dumped regularly near their homes. Tammy Holton, a resident of this Northside area of Jacksonville in the state of Florida, was horrified at the discovery. And it has been happening regularly, she says. Holton saw the dead dogs dumped in garbage cans near the road.
Holton is appalled that someone could inflict such cruelty on man's best friend. She wants the police to investigate and find out those responsible for killing the dogs and dumping them in the neighborhood. She has even seen a dog burnt beyond recognition. Two to three dead dogs are often dumped at a time in the same place.
Read: Dog rescued after spending week floating on couch in flooded home after Hurricane Florence
She says she has contacted The Humane Society, the city authorities and JSO. The dead dogs were removed every time but Holton feels that there is a need to investigate further. Something more has to be done to put a stop to these incidents. She feels that the authorities need to partner up with JSO and catch the culprits.
To kill any animal unnecessarily is a misdemeanor of the first degree. Further, it is a felony of the third degree to subject animals to the cruelty that causes their death. Both these crimes can result in several years in jail and hefty fines that can cost the offenders thousands.
Read: Poor Little Dog, Rescued From A Trash Can, Had Sustained A Severe Head Injury
Animal abuse normally indicates deliberate harming or hurting an animal. But it also includes a lack of proper care of an animal. So even just neglecting an animal is punishable by law throughout America. The dead dogs being dumped in the Northside neighborhood seems to a sinister effort at eliminating dogs for some unusual, sadistic reason. The burnt corpse of the dog is particularly distressing and needs immediate investigation.
