Neat, compact and does the job - would have given 5 stars if it had RDS or costed less, though overall very satisfied. This was my first purchase from AS and the process was a breeze!

This tuner is quite expensive for the size, however makes up for it in the quality build of the product.It comes with a small string ariel to get the unit going and to be honest it sounds astonishingly good once out of the box and tuned.I can only assume that once I've connected it to a proper 75ohm cable either loft or rooftop mounted it will sound even better.If you want quality and the small size fits your system then buy this before FM is gone?( Recently bought a DAB unit , the first one I cannot believe was in 2000 and they are still astonishingly bad due to signal output, even though I'm in a DAB area. FM rules still.)

What is Google Fact Checker?
The term fake news is well known in the internet world, way before someone running for president in the US managed to coin the term. But if you ever wondered where news information typically comes from, then you are thinking what we all are when we read news on any website that's not considered a major news network.
Google has been at work on Fact Checking features with a group of over 115 organizations specializing in the issue. You can see the list here.
Fact Checking Organizations
This venture is not isolated, as Google is partnering with organizations across the globe. In France, Google's CrossCheck project is a joint venture with twenty French newsrooms and the First Draft Coalition to help debunk fake news published for the upcoming French elections.
Google is also behind the Digital Initiative Fund which supports 10 projects related to fact checking and authentication systems. The projects span the U.K., France, Italy, Scotland, and even Norway.
This is super exciting, because there are a lot of websites on the internet cashing in on spreading false, misleading, and even bogus information.
When is Google Fact Check going into effect?
After the initial rollout in October of 2016, the official rollout was on April 7th, 2017.
How does it work?
Publishers can now use a "Fact Check" tag in their news stories for Google News. This new label identifies articles that include information that was actually fact checked by news publishers & fact-checking organizations.
The Fact Check label is now available everywhere, and Google is expanding it globally in all languages. The Fact Check snippet will work with Google searches that trigger it, and display key information such as claim info, who is making the claim, and the actual fact check on that specific claim.
Keep in mind, the actual fact checking is not done by Google itself, but the partnered organizations.
Publishers who are interested in using this feature will require to update their code with the Schema.org ClaimReview tags. However, this will all only work with publishers who are identified as authoritative sources by Google's own algorithm.
If something is fishy from the publisher side or fact check, Google may simply ignore the code completely.
Are website rankings effected?
Google has strayed away from any indication that these new fact checking tags would get you any extra brownie points on Google search.
However, it does not mean that in the future, Google won't change their minds about how it may effect website rankings.
I would imagine, if I was Google (yea right), I would wait until the fact checking system really works and then start to slowly give sites with more factual based news more weight.
Just my two cents of course.

Put a Spell On You: 'Hocus Pocus' Came Out More Than 20 Years Ago & Yes, the Cast Has Completely Grown Up
By Jennifer Maldonado
It's still summer but the fall will be here soon enough and with that time of year comes Halloween. What better way to celebrate than by watching a classic Halloween movie, like the one and only Hocus Pocus? Yes, we're talking about the movie that focuses on the Sanderson Sister witches being resurrected on Halloween by Max Dennsion after he lights a black flame candle, and then it's up to him, his little sister Dani, his crush Allison and a talking cat the witches cursed named Binx to save all the children of Salem. It plays every single year on every channel basically because it is that legendary.
C'mon, you're going to tell me you don't sing along when Bette Midler, Winnie Sanderson herself belts out "I Put a Spell On You?" We ALL do and there's nothing wrong with that! Since the movie lives on every year, reaching a new generation each Halloween season and there are even new costumes you can buy to dress up like these iconic sister witches, you kind of tend to forget that this movie was actually released in 1993. As in 24 years ago. And it came out on July 16 during the summer. Interesting. Oh, and it was directed by none other than Kenny Ortega, the man who directed all the High School Musical and Descendants movies? SO MANY LAYERS OF AMAZINGNESS. And yes, all of the young stars in the cast have of course grown up and changed a lot since their appearance in this movie. So let's take a look, shall we?
Dani Dennsion was played by Thora Birch.
Dani was the fearless little sister with all the sass who simply just wanted to spend some time with her brother. She never thought they would spend Halloween together trying to avoid having their souls sucked out of them by witches! But she of course captured all of our hearts, especially when it came to those scenes between her and Max and the beloved Binx. So what about the actress, Thora, now?
Well, Thora is 35 years old and she's still acting too. She's starred in other classic movies like Now and Then and American Beauty and currently has a role on the USA series, Colony. Plus, she had a black cat that looks very similar to Binx, which she named "Panther Dani."
To all my #HocusPocus fans… it's time to meet 'Panther Dani'!! Cats got it better than me!
Just precious.
Allison was played by Vinessa Shaw.
Vinessa is now 41 years old and she just recently announced she is expecting her first baby. She shared the news on Instagram, with a cute pic of her and her husband looking as happy as ever together. "Great News! We are proud and excited to share that we are expecting a little one early next year!…My hubby is a graphic designer, so I hope you appreciate his cheekiness ????????????," she wrote in the caption.
Since her time as Allison, Vanessa has starred in tons of movies and television shows, most recently in the series Ray Donovan, so she's clearly kept busy.
Max Dennsion was played by Omri Katz.
Omri has lived a rather low-key life since his days playing Max. He's had acting roles in TV shows throughout the '90s and early '00s, such as in Freaks & Geeks and General Hospital, but he hasn't acted in anything since 2002. Fun fact about the role of Max: it was originally offered to Leonardo DiCaprio. Yes, as in the legend who played Jack Dawson in Titanic. But he declined the part of Max despite being offered "more money than I ever dreamed of," Leo told Variety. Instead, he decided to focus his efforts on another role, the part of Arnie in the indie movie, What's Eating Gilbert Grape, which co-starred Johnny Depp as his brother and earned Leo an Academy Award and Golden Globe nomination. But we digress.
Back to Omri, he did have a *HP reunion with Vinessa and Thora back in 2015, so nice to know they OG squad is still as close as ever.
Thackery Binx was played by Sean Murray.
Although we don't get to see Thackery in his human form for too much of the movie, the fact that he sacrificed his soul to save his little sister Emily and was there for Dani too (in cat form) was nothing short of adorable. IRL, Sean has continued acting in tons of shows and TV movies over the years, with a main role on the series JAG and on NCIS, which he's starred in since 2003. Another fun fact about Sean is that his step-sister is Pretty Little Liars star, Troian Bellisario and she plays his character's sister on NCIS.
Sean has been married since 2005 and has two children too. Wonder if all they watch Hocus Pocus when it airs on TV every year…
As for the other main stars, the Sanderson sisters themselves, Bette, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy, they'e all continued acting, currently being the fabulous actresses and singers they always were. They really did put a spell on all of us in this movie. There has been talk of a possible sequel for years now with no real confirmation, so we'll just have to wait and see. If anything, at least we have tis gem of a movie to get us through All Hallows' Eve every year in-between eating all that candy, right?

PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.
Years of mechanism: 2011
This mechanism will support the GoKs efforts to move toward a single unified and integrated Health Information System (HIS)which will replace the many, disease specific vertical monitoring and reporting systems. The GoK and its internal and external stakeholders agree that there is a need for a single unified and integrated HIS system. USAID/Kenya believes that this is a unique opportunity to make a significant improvement in the HIS, and its impact on health outcomes. In 2010 the GoK issued the Health Information System Policy, 2010, and the Health Management Strategic Plan 2009-2014 to guide the process towards a strengthened, unified and integrated HIS. The support under this contract will now contribute to the building of the capacity of the HIS to enable it be the sole source of data for all the health sector stakeholders, including development partners and USAID/Kenyas APHIAplus and other USG partners. USAID/Kenya will provide support directly through GoK systems to ensure that all support has full GoK ownership and leadership. This system strengthening support will ensure that USG support will not create parallel support structures that could weaken national systems. This program is to support the ongoing activities by the GoK to design and build an effective HIS that will improve decision making and ultimately help improve the health of Kenyans. As such, it will respond to the results outlined in the USAID/Kenya Implementation Framework 2010-2015, whose strategic goal is health outcomes and impact through sustainable country-led programs and partnerships which aims to ensure sustainable health impact through strengthening the overall health system. This activity supports GHI/LLC and is completely funded by pipeline funds in this budget cycle.
This activity will provide secretariat support to the national SI team. It will ensure coordinated, complete and accurate implementing partner reporting for all the PEPFAR indicators through the USG reporting system KePMS. HMIS will also support the SI team in consolidating the SAPR and APR reports, holding the PEPFAR review meeting for both reporting periods attended by Government of Kenya, Ministry of Health participants. Working with the MoH, Division of HIS, this project will work to strengthen the government routine HIS (DHIS2). The USG KePMS reporting will transition to the national HIS. Part of the process will include indicator harmonization to ensure inclusion of the PEPFAR NGI. It also involves working with the National AIDS Control Council and the Division of Community Health Services at MoH to harmonize and integrate the community level reporting databases with the national HIS. The project will also collaborate with the sub-national partners to ensure establishment of DHIS2, through training of facility and district health management teams in data collection, transcription, data entry, retrieval, analysis, use for local action and archiving. This also includes working with HIS management teams at all levels to institutionalize good monitoring and evaluation (M&E) practices, establish learning and knowledge systems that produce M&E products that support effective programming through established joint partners/GoK monitoring forums. The project has engaged the Kenya Medical Training College, to work with MoH and other stakeholders to accomplish two tasks. 1) Revise the pre-service training curriculum for health records officers to include competency and skills to apply the advancements in technology in HIS and techniques in data manipulation for M&E and surveillance. 2) To develop an in-service short course curriculum to upgrade the existing workforce to match the current industry and workplace realities, role and responsibilities, including use of the new ICT platforms.

Pokemon is one of the oldest and most profitable franchises on the planet, so it's only natural that there are hundreds of different original Pokemon as of 2020. All of them are very diverse and distinctly vary from each other, and they make up of 18 different types that determine how their powers work, what foes they are effective against, and their weaknesses.
While every type of Pokemon character has its ups and downs, there are a few that are considered more useful and effective than some of the others in direct comparisons. One of them is the Electric-type, which is considered one of the best types to start off with and evolve in time, as well as combine with other types to create special combos.
However, as with everything else, it can be quite time consuming to find the best Electric Pokemon characters from a list of dozens of options available, so we've carefully handpicked the 10 best Electric Pokemon characters for you to use and created a list out of it. So, let's get started with the guide!
Related read: 10 Best Mobile Action RPG Games Like Genshin Impact
10. Electivire
⚡ Gaming Deals too Good to Pass On ⚡
- Top tier deal.
- Lowest price in 30 days.
- MUX Switch ready.
Electivire is one of the most effective tank Pokemon in the Electric category. It has one of the highest numbers of attack values in Electric-type characters and its Motor Drive skill allows it to become faster every time it's hit by an Electric move – which greatly makes up for its lack of speed otherwise
It can also learn a lot of different moves which add to the usefulness if you're willing to put in the effort, but even its defaults such as Earthquake and Flamethrower attacks are good enough.
9. Luxray
Luxray does not have any out-of-the-box abilities, but his physical powers easily make him one of the best Electric Pokemon you can have. It has 120 Attack stats and a 95 Sp. Atk, which makes it very useful in battles.
In its earlier forms, you can use it for passive gameplay and non-competitive battles, and you might also get lucky and find it with the 'Intimidate' ability which lowers the Attack stats of its foes and survive for longer. But once you evolve it to its Dark-type abilities you will be able to add it to your roster of Gym-ready Electric Pokemon and not regret it.
8. Manectric
Manectric's is quite similar to Luxray, but is a better version of that Pokemon. It has the same quick speed and a 95 Sp. Attack stat, and the Intimidate ability is here too which adds to the survivability.
What makes it ultimately better is its mega-evolution, which greatly boosts its speed and Sp Attack numbers, and it can even learn some Fire and Ice type movies to still be effective against foes that are invulnerable to Electric-type attacks.
If you're willing to put in the time to achieve its mega form, you'll have one of the best Electric Pokemon at your service.
7. Rotom
Rotom is a very unique Pokemon and has the ability to possess different things that give it new forms. The form we're talking about right now is Rotom-W, which it gains after possessing a washing machine. It gains an incredible Electric and Water combination which also retains the Levitate ability Rotom has in general.
It has a high number of Defense and Sp. Defense that makes up for its lack of high HP, but it can go against a lot of powerful Pokemon which even includes Grass-type which is its one weakness in general. It's also particularly effective against Flying-type Pokemon due to some of its specific attacks.
6. Eelektross
Eelektross is one of the best Electric Pokemon that you can obtain thanks to the fact it offers you the ability to combine your type with the Levitate ability. That allows it to be immune to most Pokemon characters that you'd encounter since it can levitate to be immune to Ground-type attacks and be on the ground to avoid attacks that are overly effective towards Flying-type Pokemon.
On top of the usual diverse abilities it has, it also offers great offensive moves such as Giga Drain and Flamethrower that really make it worthy of a spot on this list.
5. Raikou
While this list is about the best Pokemon to use in terms of gameplay, let's take a moment to also appreciate how majestic this Legendary character looks – the moment you see it you know it means business. It has very good Attack and Sp. Attack numbers and its speed is surprisingly great for a Pokemon that is so effective offensively.
What makes it even more ridiculously powerful, is the fact it also has great HP and Sp. Defense points making it an all-rounder option to use. It's one of the best Electric Pokemon you can find and looks great while it destroys your enemies for you.
4. Zapdos
Zapdos is one of the most powerful Pokemon in general, not only in the Electric-types. That's because it has a great Pressure ability, an effective Electric/Flying combo, and remarkable Stats in all the departments.
It's one of the earliest Legendaries and still remains a fan-favorite, the only con it has is that the developers have not altered him much in gameplay or personality since its debut and its weaknesses are too obvious to any fan of the series in battle.
3. Magnezone
Magnezone is a pretty good Electric-type Pokemon as it has high Sp. Attack and great offensive moves. But where it truly shines is the fact it has a Magnet Pull ability that can force Steel-type Pokemon from switching away, and that's a very powerful ability considering that Steel-type Pokemon are extremely strong and responsible for thousands of players stuck in battles until they came up with better strategies.
It's not a tank/brute Pokemon due to its HP but it's amazing for support should you encounter any Steel-types, it's hard to find a Pokemon that nullifies an entire type this incredibly.
2. Dracozolt
Dracozolt has a unique Electric/Dragon hybrid types combination and is much better than the similar Arctozolt Pokemon. It has a great move set which includes Bolt Beak and Sand Rush to name a few and has decent enough stats that let you use it in competitive situations as well.
It's effective against a ridiculously long list of Pokemon types and only has a weakness to Ground, ice, Dragon, and Fairy.
But even then, it can stand its ground well enough thanks to its 100 Attack, 80 Sp. Attack, 90 Defense and 70 Sp. Defense. It's a valuable asset to anyone's team and is the better dragon in the 'cozolt' line of Pokemon.
1. Jolteon
Don't be fooled by Jolteon's appearance, no matter how many lists you go through you will find him in the top 3 types. In our analysis, it's the best Electric Pokemon within the franchise so far and you might already have an idea of why due to its incredible popularity.
It's extremely powerful in offensive capabilities due to the great number of speed and Sp. Attack stats, and it can learn Special moves from many other types of Pokemon so it's not only useful against Pokemon that are vulnerable to Electric attacks.
What makes it even more useful is the fact it has a Volt Absorb ability which lets you heal HP whenever you take Electric damage and look like a badass while you're at it. It's not a brute and can go out after a lot of hits, but its incredible 130 speed is enough to dodge most attacks that you can't take.
It's nearly an all-rounder and in general the best Electric Pokemon you can get your hands-on, so don't forget to keep it close at all times!
That concludes our list for the 10 best Electric Pokemon characters to use, we hope you found the best character to use for your journey in the game's gorgeous universe. If you have any questions or opinions, don't forget to leave them in the comments below. And keep an eye out for some of our other helpful guides on the website as well!

Stardew Valley review
In Stardew Valley the player takes on the role of a person who has inherited a farm and left the metropolis of the city to live their own life. The player then learns how to take care of their farm, plant crops, grow them, and sell them while interacting with the townsfolk in the community. Stardew Valley is a game from ConcernedApe, released for PC in early 2016. The game is a farming simulator with RPG elements, where players take control of a character to start a new life in an old, unoccupied farm. The game is set in a small-town in the fictional country of Stardew Valley, where the player can take up professions such as mining, fishing, foraging, and farming. The player can also engage in relationships with various other characters, and start a family.
In Stardew Valley, gameplay is in the form of an open-ended, non-linear RPG. The player is able to explore the game world, socialize with various residents, take up various professions, and make decisions that change the game world.
Farmers can plant and harvest crops, craft new items, forage for food, build fences and buildings, and collect resources from the mines. They can also get married to one of the villagers, and start a family.
Players can also take up professions such as fishing, foraging, mining, and fighting. Fishing can be done in rivers, lakes, or the ocean. Players can forage for berries, mushrooms, and other food items. Mining is where players can find minerals, ores, and gems. Fighting is done against monsters in the game.
The game features a day and night cycle. The player can choose to sleep to skip the cycle, and the player can also decide whether the game should be played in multiplayer mode.

The player can buy and sell goods or invest in the local shop. They can also spend their money on the village's shops.
Stardew Valley is a two-dimensional game, with graphics that are reminiscent of the 16-bit era. The game uses a top-down perspective, with sprites and pixel art. Stardew Valley's graphics are simplistic. The game is 2D and the player can see the landscape from an isometric perspective. All textures and the game's models are low-poly.

- Players are able to explore the game world, socialize with various residents, and take up various professions

Turkey is one of the tourist destinations for those who want to travel to places with Islamic nuances, especially during the month of Ramadan. Located on two different continents, this has earned Turkey the nickname of a country with a thousand flavors. The states which are located on the European continent are known as Thrace, and the states on the Asian continent are called Anatolia. If you want to travel to Turkey, there are several requirements that you must have so you will be qualified enough to have a Turkish visa. A visa is an official document issued by a country as a sign of permission for a person to enter the territory of the destination country. The data listed on the visa is usually the country of destination, destination of arrival, and validity period.
If you want to visit Turkey, then you must have a Turkey Visa. However, not all citizens of other countries need a visa to visit Turkey, citizens of Turkey and Northern part of Cyprus are the examples of citizens who do not need a visa or any kind of permit to go to Turkey. Whether or not a visa is needed when visiting a country is usually based on the country that issued your passport, the type of passport you have, or both of these reasons.
There are several types of visas that are valid in Turkey. If you want to visit Turkey for the purpose of tourism, business or trade, seminars or conferences, festivals or exhibitions, arts and sports activities, or a visit to Northern Cyprus then the type of visa you need is a Turkish Tourist or Business Visa. If you are a student or want to do something related to education, then you need to apply for a Turkey Student Visa. Unlike the Turkish Work Visa, which you can apply for your main purpose to Turkey to do work, if you are a sportsman, artist, or journalist.
After knowing if you need a visa to go to Turkey, the first thing you need to know is you can apply for visa ownership by coming to the Turkish consulate or embassy in your country. You must bring some important documents with you during the visa application process. This document will prove your intention and eligibility to go to Turkey. However, there are some different documents that you will need to bring with you, depending on the type of vise you are applying for. In this case, nationality will also affect whether or not additional documents need to be submitted.
But little do you know that there is an easier and quicker way to make a visa. Yes, since 2013 we can apply to have a visa by online filling Turkey visa online application, if you meet the requirements. An Turkey e-visa is simply visa that you make by online. Now, you no longer have to bother requiring a lot of time to make a visa.
The processing steps of making an e-Visa are very simple and not much different from the ordinary way. Go to the website of the e-visa, it provides many languages so you can choose if your language is available or not. Next, you can start the process of making your Turkey e-visa, click 'Turkey Visa Application Form ' and select the country and the identity card or passport that you will use. If it's a passport that you are going to use, notice that you have to know the difference between ordinary and official passport. Ordinary passport is a passport used for the purposes of traveling abroad. Meanwhile, the official passport is used for government employees for government duties. After that, you can input your arrival date so that you will be given other important information such as the validity of your visa, whether you can enter your destination country once or several times in a period, the cost of making an online Turkish e-visa and how to pay for it. The next step is filling in your personal data. Please fill in this section with accurate information which is not manipulated.
If you are going to make the e-visa for several people, don't worry because you can also make an application of Turkey e-visa for several people in the website, they call it as a Family Application. Making online Turkish e-visa with the Family Application also needs some specific provisions such as all members must come from the same country. The minimum number of members is 2 people and a maximum of 10 people. They also have to have the same document type whether its passport or identity card.

Instead of throwing away unwanted fat removed from one part of your body, why not use it to augment other areas?
Have you ever wondered how nice it would be to remove unwanted fat in the body and reuse it to enhance areas such as the breast and buttock? This is now achievable with an advanced approach called Body to Breast Contouring.
Although fat transfer technology is not new, previous techniques of fat purification were not well developed. Often, only about 30–60% of the amount injected survived. However, the technology has since matured, with better understanding of the biophysiology of fat tissue and its role in stem cells, as well as the invention of better machines to harvest, concentrate and refine the extracted fat. Doctors are now able to withdraw larger volumes of fat for use.
One such machine is the Lipokit. It is a useful device that harvests the fat like a liposuction machine, which provides contouring of the donor area (usually the stomach or thighs). At the same time, the fat is purified and then injected into the breast for reshaping or augmentation. This is an exciting option for people who do not wish to go under the knife or have prostheses in their bodies.
So what are the advantages and disadvantages of fat transfer?
- Plastic surgeons are able to offer a non-surgical option for breast enhancement in place of traditional surgery using implants. Under usual circumstances, the patient can preserve about 70% of the original volume of fat that is injected.
- As you are using your own fat tissue, there is no risk of rejection or incompatibility. Since fat cells are living, they are less likely to disintegrate or be absorbed like other synthetic filler materials, which often do not last more than a year.
- The doctor is able to customise and inject the precise amount of fat required for each breast and in the exact areas, so that the outcome is in line with the patient's objective. It is common for a woman's breasts to be slightly different in size. With this technique, it is possible to input more fat on one side and less on the other to correct the asymmetry.
- The procedure is safe and swift. The duration of the procedure depends on how much fat needs to be removed. As body shaping (fat removal) and breast augmentation (fat injection) are performed simultaneously, it usually takes two to three hours. There is no need for hospitalisation. Most patients recover from the liposuction within two weeks to a month. You are advised to wear a support bra and compression garment around the area where fat was withdrawn to control possible swelling. Normal activities can be resumed soon after, with no worries of complications (such as breaking of breast implants).
- The amount of fat that can be injected is not limitless. If the fat goes beyond the maximum level, its chance of survival is slim because too many fat cells are competing for the same blood supply. When the fat cells die, the patient may end up with a size that is smaller than expected. To ensure that more fat can survive in the new environment, it must be treated with care and not be traumatised.
- Due to the limited amount of fat that can be injected each time, breast augmentation from fat transfer will only make you one cup size bigger. If a patient wants something more, the procedure would have to be repeated. Touch-ups can be done after a few months but you may run out of fat.
- It is a neat, clean and safe procedure with minimal potential side effects. Nevertheless, the risk of infection comes with any surgery and some patients may get some bruises, though that is uncommon and non-severe. In rare cases, fat embolism may occur. This happens when the fat is accidentally injected into a vein. By injecting very small amounts carefully and slowly using a blunt cannula, the risk of this happening can be greatly reduced.
Debunking myths
Many patients are concerned that the fat injected may mimic changes as seen in breast cancer and thus affect the reading of mammograms. This is a fallacy — the fat is only injected around and beneath the breast and not into the glandular tissue, hence the confusion will not arise. Other than people with too little fat to be extracted, this procedure is suitable for most. In particular, it is a good option for those who are not looking to have huge changes in their breast size but just want some enhancement.

Tomahawk man trapped under capsized canoe rescued from Wisconsin River
Dog remained atop vessel during incident Sunday, Aug. 11
TOWN OF KING – A Tomahawk man, 34, was rescued by emergency personnel after being trapped under his capsized canoe Sunday, Aug. 11.
According to the Lincoln County Sheriff's Department, the man called 911 at about 8:25 a.m. and reported he was pinned in his canoe north of Menard Island on a stretch of the Wisconsin River north of County Road A in the Town of King, east of Tomahawk.
Dispatchers were able to immediately pinpoint the man's location using GPS technology, but due to very shallow water conditions, it took "some time" to reach him, the release states. The low water levels in some areas forced firefighters to abandon their boats and walk to the man's location, over file miles upstream from the nearest landing point. A dispatcher kept the man online for over an hour until responders were able to reach him.
After reaching the man's location, it took responders about 20 minutes to free him. Firefighters then used a life jacket to float the man down the river to deeper water, where fire and civilian volunteers, along with boats from the Lincoln County Sheriff's Department, were waiting. He was brought south to County Road A, where he was removed from the water to a waiting ambulance, two hours after the incident began.
The man was brought to Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital in Tomahawk, where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries. Deputies also rescued the man's dog, which remained on top of the canoe during the incident.
Responding agencies included the Tomahawk Fire Department, Tomahawk EMS, Lincoln County Sheriff's Department, Wisconsin DNR and Spirit Medical Transport. An airboat was requested from the Newbold Fire Department in Oneida County, but was canceled after the man was freed.

35-Year-Old Chris Paul Is the Second-Highest Paid Player in the NBA
When his career ends, Chris Paul should be considered one of the top-10 point guards to ever play in the NBA. A standout sophomore out of Wake Forest, Paul was great in New Orleans and helped create "Lob City" in LA during his time with the Clippers.
As the athlete enters the twilight of his career, one thing stands out: Paul's current contract. Let's review the deal and why it makes him the second-highest paid NBA player today.
Chris Paul signs the supermax deal
As Spotrac.com details, Paul signed a four-year, $159 million contract with the Rockets before the 2017-18 season. This deal included a player option after the third season (2020-21), worth $44 million. Paul will turn 37 at the start of this deal. It looks like one of the rougher contracts to handle in the NBA.
Paul spoke to Sports Illustrated earlier this year and said there was no chance he would decline the option.
Paul moves to Oklahoma City
A report came out last summer regarding the tension between Paul and Rockets guard James Harden. The team knew they had to move one of the franchise's cornerstones. Houston traded Paul to the Oklahoma City Thunder along with four first-round picks for Russell Westbrook.
The trade was smart for both teams. It made the Rockets younger at point guard; it also paired Harden with his best friend in the NBA in Westbrook. The Thunder also picked up multiple picks and a veteran for their young roster.
Paul has a resurgent year with the Thunder
After posting pretty good numbers in the 2018-19 NBA season, many thought Paul would be a veteran piece of the Thunder rebuild until a trade partner opened up. That hasn't been the case. After two unceremonious first-round exits, including Damian Lillard in 2019, no one expected OKC to be as good this season.
With two new powerhouses in LA, along with the Denver Nuggets, the Thunder are somehow sitting at No. 5 in the West with a 40-24 record.
Paul is averaging nearly 17 points and seven assists per game. Oklahoma City is a surprising 10th in defensive rating and points allowed per game without a lockdown defender on the perimeter with the skillset of Paul George. The Thunder could be a sneaky pick to make a deep playoff run.
Who makes more than Chris Paul?
The only player making more than Paul is Golden State Warriors guard Steph Curry. One half of the Splash Brothers and arguably the greatest shooter the game has ever seen, Curry is making $40 million this season. Although the Warriors face injuries and the departure of Kevin Durant, we think they could be dangerous next year.
Russell Westbrook is also in the conversation as he and Paul have the same salary this year. This makes the trade financially doable for both teams.

Global criminal trafficking network for ancient art revealed in the first ever empirical study on the matter by researchers at the University of Glasgow.
The study has unveiled the structure of the network of criminals needed to illegally traffic antiquities from ancient archaeological sites to museums and collections around the world.
A study by criminologist Simon Mackenzie and lawyer Tess Davis, both of the University of Glasgow, traced the figures involved along the trafficking chain, beginning with the theft of the antiquity – in this study from Cambodian temples – and ending with its sale to a legitimate buyer.
Research showed there were as little as three to four mediators separating the looters from a legitimate collector.
During the study, which was carried out by the Trafficking Culture research group in the Scottish Centre for Crime and Justice Research, based at the University of Glasgow, researchers interviewed people involved in the looting and trafficking, which took place at various archaeological sites in north-west Cambodia.
They explored six major archaeological sites, including Angkor (including the Roulous grouping and Banteay Srei), Banteay Chhmar (including Banteay Torp), Koh Ker, Phnom Banan, Preah Khan of Kompong Svay (the Bakan) and Sambor Prei Kuk.
Beginning with the looters…
Their research began with the locals who lived around the temples – some of whom had been involved in the looting themselves – rather than taking the approach of other research which has often begun with antique dealers.
The team interviewed elders and religious leaders, along with ordinary members of the communities, then worked up the chain toward the international cultural property dealers.
The study is funded by the European Research Council and the aim of the wider project is to examine the entire chain from the antiquity theft to its public sale.
The looting would begin with a regional 'broker', who would organized the looting of statues and deliver them to towns with connections where they would then be transported to the Thai border.
A 'receiver' on the Thai side of the border would take delivery of the statues and move them to Bangkok, where they were delivered to an internationally connected dealer.
The dealer, as the connection between illicit and licit trades, would then sell them on to collectors around the world.
Just a few steps between collectors and looters
Professor Simon Mackenzie commented: 'This is an important study, adding to our very limited knowledge of the early stages of trafficking networks in looted cultural heritage. The research shows how looting of temples connects to the public international market in cultural objects, and we found there were in this case relatively few steps between collectors and the looters. It raises serious questions for collectors of Khmer antiquities, who may not have been aware of the illicit origins of the artefacts they have bought. Encouraging stringent provenance checking of prospective acquisitions by buyers in the market is key to preventing the criminal side of the antiquities trade from flourishing.'

While my doggy might be lazy and adoring, your dog may be excitable and temperamental. Regardless, there are many basic tenets of ownership you need to know. The following article provides a lot of advice from dog owners who have experienced it all.
Always give your pet plenty of interest and affection. When your puppy correctly behaves, make sure you let the dog understand you are content and give them some love. This will help reinforce the good behavior and the dog will attempt to behave in this manner for your positive attention.
If you're hoping to get a new puppy for your family, be sure you are prepared because of this commitment. A commitment Smaller-sized canines will require at the very least a 14-16, and larger canines shall require at least 10 years. If you're not ready to own your dog for its entire life, they usually do not select a dog as a pet.
Never bring your dog along with you while flying during the hot summer months, unless the airline offers a climate-controlled cabin for him. Most of the major carriers utilize the same area for pets because they do for cargo, meaning your pet must endure some higher temperatures as you happen to be your location very, jeopardizing his safety.
Never allow your pet to be on your own with small kids, no matter how much you rely on his temperament. Many little kids have already been attacked by family members dogs who've otherwise never showed a propensity towards violence. Sleeping dogs could be woken by way of a toddler and respond negatively or various other offense is dedicated against the animal that pieces him away from.

Be sure to handle your dog's poor behavior when you first notice it. If you ignore any concern with your pet then later on it will likely be harder to train it to follow since it doesn't know any better. Bad behaviors that are left uncontrolled can result in human injuries for you, your child, your buddy, or your neighbor. For this reason it's important to nip them within the bud immediately!

An individual's personality traits may provide helpful clues for determining whether a particular behavioral change intervention will be successful, according to a study funded by the University of Pennsylvania Health System and published in PLOS ONE.
The study, designed as a randomized clinical trial, divided 602 participants with overweight/obesity into either the control group or one of three different gamification intervention groups: 1. Supportive, 2. Collaborative, and 3. Competitive. Each intervention consisted of a 24-week intervention period and a 12-week follow up period. The primary measurement outcome was the change of daily steps from baseline to the end of the intervention period.
Based on their responses to a survey at the outset of the study, the participants were categorized into one of three personality classes: Class 1 – Extroverted and Motivated; Class 2 – Less Active and Less Social; and Class 3 – Less Active and At-Risk.
Some notable results:
Class 1 performed well in the competitive intervention group, however their gains evaporated by the end of the follow-up period.
Class 2 achieved meaningful step increases in all three gamification interventions and sustained success through the 12-week follow up period.
Class 3 participants did not achieve any significant benefit from any of the gamification interventions.
"These findings demonstrated that a behavioral phenotyping approach can reveal differences in intervention response and identify those who are most likely to benefit," concluded the study authors.
Why It Matters
Given the extraordinarily high rates of preventable chronic disease in the United States and around the world, identifying successful behavior change interventions is an urgent public health imperative. This study suggests that we must not expect to find a one-size-fits-all, scalable solution, but that we must continue to account for individual variability and venture to provide highly-targeted and customized solutions. To that aim, we must continue to pursue similar research that will help match individuals with interventions that are most likely to produce positive results.

Though forex trading (the exchange of foreign currencies) may seem complicated, the truth is that most people can get started with a new account in as little as a single afternoon.
Step 1: Understand the lingo
A firm grasp of the most commonly-used forex lingo will make your entry into the market much simpler. Some words and phrases you'll hear over and over again include:
- Base currency: The currency you are holding. If you're from the United States, your base currency is most likely the U.S. dollar.
- Quote currency: The currency you are going to purchase.
- Bid price: The price that your broker would be willing to "bid" or "buy" the base currency you are holding.
- Ask price: The price that your broker will "ask" you for in exchange for buying your quote currency of choice. The ask price is always higher than the bid price.
- Spread: The difference between the bid price and the ask price. This is just the broker's commission.
- Pip: The smallest measurable value of currency movement. The word "pip" is an acronym standing for "percentage in point," and a single pip is equal to 1/100th of 1% of your currency. For example, if the value of the USD rises by a single pip, that means it increased in value by $0.0001.
Once you know the lingo, you can read a few forex books. Make sure to check out Benzinga's picks for the Best Forex Books for Beginners. Forex books may seem like they'd be dry, but the authors make sure the reader is entertained and well-informed.
For more common forex trading terms, check out the video:
Step 2: Choose the right broker
Before you begin forex trading, you'll need to choose a brokerage firm. Your brokerage firm will help you make trades, and many brokers also offer additional financial services. Working with a reputable broker can mean the difference between profiting from your trades and losing money between the bid and the ask price.
Don't be afraid to thoroughly research and read the reviews of a variety of brokerage firms. Not all brokerage firms, offer forex trading, so make sure its available before you open an account. Working with a broker that offers multiple outlets for customer service is highly recommended for beginning traders.
If you can't figure what forex broker to use – don't worry. Benzinga compiled a list of some of the Best Forex Brokers in the United States to help you narrow down your choices. If you don't have time to read our full review, take a look at some of our quick picks below.
Step 3: Analyze the world economy
Making money trading currencies is all about accurately predicting the movement of the global economy. To be a profitable trader, you must convert your base currency into a quote currency set to rise in value, then convert your quote currency back to your base currency when the value peaks.
Research the trading positions, GDPs and political climates of countries you are interested in purchasing currency from, and you'll get a great "lead" on which quote currency is worth your investment and which countries have economies projected for growth.
This customizable widget from TradingView is a great starting point.
Step 5: Make your first trade
Once you've decided which quote currency you're going to buy, it's time to place an order for your first trade. Your brokerage firm probably provides an online trading software that allows you to place an order to buy or sell a currency.
Using your trading platform, place a market order with your broker. The specifics of your platform may vary.

After you've finished placing your order, sit back and let your broker handle the rest.
Final thoughts
Before you get started, read up on some trending forex news and understand the risks associated with currency trading. Your wallet (and your peace of mind) will be more at ease.

Because tax/estate planning and Social Security retirement benefits are generally considered closely related, it is helpful for a person to understand these benefits when making decisions about his/her tax and estate plans.
The calculations involved in determining the amount of Social Security retirement benefits to which a person is entitled can be complex. However, there are three concepts that can make these calculations easier to understand: (1) early retirement, (2) late retirement, and (2) spousal benefits.
Early Retirement
Electing to receive Social Security retirement benefits early can substantially decrease the monthly payment to which a person is entitled. In addition, when a person does elect to receive benefits early and continues to work after he/she has begun to receive those benefits, the amount of those benefits will further be reduced by the amount of money that he/she earns through employment.
For example, if Carol elects to receive benefits before the age at which she is eligible for full benefits (Full Retirement Age), she will only receive a percentage of her full benefits per month for the rest of her life. Further, she must also pay back $1 of Social Security retirement benefits for every $2 that she earns via employment above $14,160. However, for the year in which she reaches Full Retirement Age, she will only be required to pay back $1 for every $3 she earns until the month she reaches Full Retirement Age. In years subsequent to the year in which she reaches Full Retirement Age, Carol will no longer be required to pay back any part of her benefits.
Late Retirement
Just as a person's monthly benefit payments will be reduced if he/she begins to receive benefits prior to reaching Full Retirement Age, if a person chooses to defer receipt of benefits, until the age (70 for those retiring in 2010) at which the benefits are capped (Capped Benefit Age), he/she can receive monthly benefits at a level up to 132% of the benefits to which he/she would have been entitled if he/she began to receive benefits at Full Retirement Age.
Spousal Benefits
When only one person in a married couple is retired, that person will receive receive benefits based upon his/her own Social Security contributions. Once that person's spouse retires, however, that person may elect to receive benefits based upon his/her spouse's Social Security contributions rather than based upon his/her own personal contributions.
For example, in 2010, Wendy's husband begins to receive Social Security benefits at age 70. Wendy elects to receive benefits based upon her husband's Social Security contributions. She will receive 75% of 50% of her husband's Social Security benefits.
This brief overview of some important considerations inherent in planning for Social Security retirement benefits is by no means comprehensive. Always seek the advice of a competent professional when making important financial and legal decisions.

Television is where it is at today in Hollywood. '13 Reasons Why' has fans upset at the series finale, 'The Bachelor' is getting called out by former contestants, and what Terry Crews had to say about the tough issues that will be discussed on the next season of 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine.'
'13 Reasons Why' fans received the final season of the controversial Netflix drama last week, and to say that many aren't taking it well is an understatement.
The show, which has been long-criticized for 'glamorizing suicide,' began in 2017 and was inspired by the book written by Jay Asher.
After four seasons, the show finally ended and many have taken to social media to complain about the show being 'drawn out,' and 'unnecessary.'
The show also decided to kill off a main character and fan-favorite, (don't worry, no spoilers), but it's safe to say maybe they should have quit while they were ahead.
While '13 Reasons Why' has fans complaining about the most reason season being unnecessary, former stars of 'The Bachelor' series are calling the franchise out over a very necessary topic.
Sienne Fleming, Tyler Cameron, Arie and Lauren Luyendyk, and Rachel Lindsay have all signed onto a change.org petition calling for more diversity and BIPOC on the shows.
In the 40 seasons that span 18 years on national television, there has only been one black lead, Lindsay, who was 'The Bachelorette' in 2017.
The petition demands that the show cast a black man as the next season lead, and that more people of color are represented as contestants.
If that wasn't enough, former 'Bachelor' Sean Lowe came out in support of the movement and also said that he believes his wife Catherine (who is of Filipino descent), was only cast to check a diversity box.
It ended up working out because the couple has been married for seven years and have three children, but that certainly doesn't make it okay.
Even so, it may be time for them to reevaluate their casting methods and diversify.
And one show that definitely isn't shying away from any major issues anytime soon is 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine.'
Cast member Terry Crews talked with 'Late Night with Seth Meyers' about the state of America at the moment, and whether or not 'B-99' will be addressing police brutality in the next season.
'Definitely, we actually all got on a Zoom call just the other day because of what's happening in this country,' Crews told Meyers on Monday night's episode, 'and we were witnessing, you know, just so many abuses of power. We had some somber talks and some really eye-opening conversations about how to handle this new season.'
The cast of the NBC cop comedy are clearly into putting their money where their mouth is too, donating $100,000 to the Bail Relief Fund of America.
The show has never pulled any punches or avoided awkward subjects before so we can't wait to see how they make us laugh, and learn, in this new season.

With just a little more time to digest his stoppage loss to Terence Crawford of the weekend, former titleholder Shawn Porter sits down with Fight Hype to discuss some of his thoughts on the loss and where Crawford stacks up to the likes of Errol Spence Jr.
Porter, who retired after the fight, made it clear that he thinks Crawford is the best at 147 at this moment, but was hesitant to make a call on who would win between Crawford and Spence.
On the fight with Crawford
"I think from the opening bell I allowed him to be too comfortable. But beyond that he makes the right moves, does the right things, he stays so comfortable and so confident in who he is and what he does as a fighter. You gotta break that and I thought I was gonna break it but I did not do what was necessary to break it. But I'm really wondering if I could've broke it, you know what I mean?
"He's good. I've been in the ring with guys that's like that — like, that you just can't catch a rhythm, but it's training. You only get one night against the best and right now he is the best. I don't want to make a prediction between him and Errol Spence Jr. I wish Errol Spence had never been in that accident. I wish Errol Spence never had an eye injury. I just think that it's dulled down.
"On the night (Crawford) was just better than me, just a little bit better. And it's not always physical with his game, and people don't know that. With Terence it's all mental. I think we both went to another level but I'm not even gonna front, this dude went to another level (above me). I'm not gonna compare how high he went to me but he went to another level and I wish I had gotten there and was able to go 12 rounds with that man and take this to a decision. I heard the scorecards were close. That's one that you want back."

Oluwapelumi is a believer in the transformative power Bitcoin and Blockchain industry holds. He is interested in sharing knowledge and ideas. When he is not writing, he is looking to meet new people and trying out new things.
India has now renewed its efforts towards seeing the back of digital coins as a transition period has been given to crypto holders to liquidate their assets.
While Indian authorities appear bent on banning the use of private cryptocurrencies in their jurisdiction, it also appears that the government is also looking to issue a central bank digital currency (CBDC), a digital rupee, to replace the former. A report from Bloomberg has stated that the chief of the country's apex bank, Shaktikanta Das, says that India's central bank is determined to develop a digital rupee. According to the bank's chief, the third-largest economy in Asia is very "much in the game" while adding that the country looks to emulate the Chinese in their pursuit of the digital Yen project.
Though India is yet to release any official date for the launch of the digital rupee project, Das, however, reiterated that the CBDC project is a focus of the central bank. The RBI top executive also added that the country was currently working on putting the necessary technological and procedural protocols in place so as to make the project a success.
Das was also quick to mention that the financial regulator has also informed the government of its "major concerns" about the use of private crypto assets. According to Das, these virtual currencies pose an enormous risk to the financial stability of the Indian economy.
Authorities in the Asian country have a history of a negative stance towards cryptocurrencies. Before this proposed blanket ban on virtual assets, India had earlier banned the use of Bitcoin and others for over two years, however, the ban was lifted by the Supreme Court of the country.
The country has now renewed its efforts towards seeing the back of digital coins as a transition period has been given to crypto holders to liquidate their assets. Notably, popular Indian billionaire investor, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, popularly referred to as the "Indian Warren Buffett" is in support of the government's decision, he has called on the government to issue a crypto ban while also advising them to work on a digital rupee instead.

Nashville country-pop artist Emily Hackett has unveiled her official video for her single "Good Intentions", out everywhere today. The visual, which premiered yesterday on Billboard, is a very literal take on the lyrics to the song. "[The lyrics] came from a place that was just very real and relatable," Emily commented when speaking about the concept for the concept for the video.
"This song is unique for me because it's not just my story," Emily expressed in a recent interview with Paste. "I pulled real-life snippets from a bunch of my friends. One used to get their car towed from the bar all the time, one kept swearing off boys but still flirting her way through life, one has definitely had some serious retail therapy. It's a little bit of everyone because that's the idea – we all have good intentions."
"'Good Intentions' balances the desire to follow through on personal goals while honestly divulging how often these goals become neglected." – Paste Magazine
Stream/download "Good Intentions" everywhere by clicking here, or in the Radio Disney App.
Emily's previous single "Nostalgia" was a fan favorite. The track's official video earned Emily a spot on CMT's Artist Discovery Program, where it received 6+ weeks of airplay on CMT Music – the video even made it on the fan-voted CMT's 12 Pack Countdown, peaking at #7. Watch the "Nostalgia" Official Music Video here.
About Emily Hackett: Emily Hackett speaks the truth. The singer/songwriter raised in Atlanta, GA pulls these emotions into her music, stirring in an authentic blend of self-deprecation that is both unique and refreshing. What poises her against the rest of the soul of fiery artist ready to light up the stage, all the while still as honest as her southern roots.
The result of Emily's insatiable passion is undeniable. In 2013, Emily released an acoustic cover with Megan Davies of Lorde's hit "Royals." The response has brought in over half-a-million views on Youtube, was featured on Buzzfeed, won "Best Coffeehouse Cover of 2013" on Sirius XM and reached the final round of "Best Royals Covers" on Ryan Seacrest. In 2014 Emily won the national Belk's Modern Southern Music Showcase where she played tour dates with artists like Lady Antebellum, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan and Rascal Flatts. In the same line, her duet with Parachute frontman Will Anderson, "Take My Hand (The Wedding Song)" reached over 50k streams on Soundcloud in less than two months and peaked at the No. 4 spot on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart. The music video for the single currently sits at almost 22 million views. Emily's latest single "Nostalgia" earned her a spot on CMT's Artist Discovery Program, and she's currently one of The Boot's Artists to Watch in 2018.
There's a compatibility between the novelty and depth found in Emily's artistry. Her music has the power to transform listeners in a direction where many songwriters fear to tread. With her organic honesty and raw-honey vocals, it's no wonder that the possibilities continue to unfurl for Emily Hackett.

Hyundai Elantra GT Hatch Might Soon Get Tangier, If the Updated Euro-Market i30 Is Any Indication
A more prominent grille, fancier lighting, and a bigger touchscreen are headed to Hyundai's compact hatchback.
Related Video
The European-market Hyundai i30 has gone under the knife and sports fresh new looks that likely preview what's soon to come for the North American-market Elantra GT hatchback. Keep in mind, the Elantra GT is a slightly different car from the Elantra sedan, and is sourced from Hyundai's European lineup where it goes up against the likes of more premium small cars such as the Volkswagen Golf.
The refreshed version of the Elantra GT's i30 Euro twin is set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, with updates highlighted by slimmer headlights with V-shaped daytime running lights and a wider and pointier new grille that mimics that of the 2020 Hyundai Sonata's. Additionally, Hyundai redesigned the compact hatch's front bumper to improve its aerodynamic performance. This has the secondary effect of making the i30/Elantra GT's front end more attractive and aggressive than before.
Like the current Elantra GT, the updated i30 features a sportier N Line trim that includes more aggressive design details and a smattering of performance upgrades relative to the standard model. The i30 also comes as a slinky fastback and as a proper station wagon, but alas, we don't expect either to make it across the Atlantic to Hyundai dealers as equivalent Elantra GT variants; here, the hatchback will be the only Euro expat in the Elantra lineup. Too bad.
Complementing the i30's revised exterior is a reworked interior, which again we trust will filter down to the U.S.-market Elantra GT soon. It features an available 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment screen, which features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Better yet, the updated i30 offers a slew of new safety features including a rear collision-avoidance assist system, a seemingly more advanced lane centering self-steering feature (the Elantra GT has only lane-keeping assist), and lead-vehicle departure alert, the latter of which tells drivers when the vehicle ahead moves forward.
Hyundai also outlined a mild-hybrid technology for the new i30. It's not known if this fuel-saving hybrid tech will make its way to the U.S.-spec Elantra GT, which currently ships with either a 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 161 horsepower or a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 201 ponies. Regardless, we expect the i30's updated looks and infotainment and safety technology to find its way to our market's Elantra GT in the coming months. But hey, Hyundai—as much as we'd welcome a mild-hybrid powertrain, we'd much rather see the i30 N's 250-hp turbo four-cylinder make it here for a high-performance Elantra GT alternative to the Honda Civic Si/Type R and Volkswagen Golf GTI/R.

Early in the filming of "The Wild Bunch" in the spring of 1968, its star, William Holden — winner of the best actor Oscar for "Stalag 17" in 1954 — had a day off. Holden spent part of the time watching his director, Sam Peckinpah, badger two character actors into giving him more for a minor scene.
"Is that the way you're going to shoot the rest of the picture?" Holden asked. Peckinpah said it was. In that case, Holden replied, "I'm going home and studying." As W.K. Stratton comments in "The Wild Bunch: Sam Peckinpah, a Revolution in Hollywood, and the Making of a Legendary Film," his admiring and informative account of the making of "The Wild Bunch," Holden had realized that "this was not going to be just another cowboy picture."
The effort lavished on "The Wild Bunch" pays off in every frame — and that's saying a lot because few if any Westerns have ever run so long. (The director's cut I recently watched on DVD lasts two hours and 42 minutes.) Nor had any previous movie depicted gunfights so graphically. And Peckinpah's use of slow motion, notably in a shot of a bridge full of horsemen collapsing into a river, has often been imitated but rarely to such balletic effect. Not only did "The Wild Bunch" immediately become one of the greatest Westerns ever made; it also rejuvenated a cinematic genre that Stratton calls "the hoariest of them all."
Peckinpah was no stranger to the region or the genre. Born in 1925 to a ranching family in Fresno, he studied drama at the University of Southern California and developed an affinity for the plays of Tennessee Williams. The connection can be felt, I think, in the poetry of certain lines in "The Wild Bunch," whose script Peckinpah co-authored with Walon Green. Here, for example, is Holden's character, Pike Bishop, lecturing his fellow crooks: "We're going to stick together just like it used to be. When you side with a man, you stay with him, and if you can't do that, you're like some animal."
After doing some acting, the young Peckinpah had worked as a dialogue director and screenwriter. In the early 1960s, he directed three Westerns, one of them a critical and box-office hit ("Ride the High Country") and another a fiasco (the much-tampered-with "Major Dundee"). The flop might have finished Peckinpah as a movie director if he hadn't landed an assignment to bring Katherine Anne Porter's novella "Noon Wine" to television. So impressive was the result that, amid the creative upheaval of late-'60s Hollywood, Peckinpah managed to get the green light — and a big budget — for a project he had been obsessing over for years.
"The Wild Bunch" rides up late in the annals of Western lore. It's 1916, the Mexican Revolution is under way, and Pike is leading his gang of aging outlaws, the Bunch itself, on what they hope will be their last heist. If their robbery of a railroad office comes off as planned, they'll be able to hang up their guns for good. Another contingent, led by Pike's old partner Deke Thornton (played by Robert Ryan), is working against the Wild ones and on behalf of the railroad. Before it's all over, various Mexican factions will have weighed in, but despite all the contenders and double-crosses Peckinpah tells his story so well that the viewer is unlikely to lose the trail.
Long enamored of Mexico, Peckinpah insisted on shooting there and casting actual Mexicans — some of them professional actors, others not — as his Mexican characters. The role of principal villain, Mapache, went to Emilio Fernandez, one of Mexico's leading movie directors.
Although Peckinpah did well by the Mexicans in giving them work and incorporating their music, including a haunting lament called "Las Golondrinas" ("The Swallows"), he can be accused of disrespecting them by staging one of those battles in which a handful of white men take out dozens upon dozens of darker-skinned foes. And yet Alfonso Arau — brilliant in the role of Mapache's envoy to the Bunch — learned much from watching Peckinpah. He went on to direct films himself and stayed friends with his mentor until Peckinpah's death in 1984.
Although "The Wild Bunch" did well at the box office, its violence outraged some critics. Peckinpah himself came to have reservations. "I made 'The Wild Bunch' because I still believed in the Greek theory of catharsis," he said, looking for the film to have a violence-purging effect on viewers. "I was wrong," he added. So, yes, a great many men and a few women are shot dead in Peckinpah's masterpiece, but for me the repeated face-punching and rib-kicking simulated in such TV fare as "The Sopranos" is more visceral, and thus harder to take, than the blood spurting in "The Wild Bunch" (courtesy of squibs strapped to actors' bodies and set off by remote control).
Be that as it may, reading W.K. Stratton's fine book after watching "The Wild Bunch" can make for a rich aesthetic feast.

- Ocena: 1/5Autor: ff-fan, 3 lata temuThis is a scam, asking for payment for other people's work. Shame on you
- Ocena: 1/5Autor: Coldblackice, 3 lata temuDo not use! These scammers are charging money to use this, which is ridiculous, given:
A.) The super simplistic functionality of it. Google any of these tools + "online tool" and you'll see how easily/freely/quickly each can be done right there in the browser
B.) This "developer" isn't the original author of Hackbar, they've merely copied (stolen?) the original and updated it for web-extensions, rebranding it as their own. They've even stolen the old Firefox icon/logo itself to use as their own and recolored it, surely a copyright violation.
There are a handful of other "hackbar" alternative addons that have the exact same functionality yet don't charge a penny. Straight up comical this guy not only tries to charge money, but even as a *monthly* subscription, LOL. At least he gives a "discount" for a year subscription! /s
Really surprised Mozilla allows an addon like this to be hosted on their repository given it charges money, it's clearly not the original author's, and how they've even stolen Mozilla's intellectual property by recoloring the old Firefox icon/logo and using it on an addon that they're making money off of.
I guarantee many or most of these 5-star reviews that trickle in are shill reviews used to inflate their rating in the store.
- Ocena: 1/5Autor: Firefox user 15782998, 4 lata temuYou have to pay to use the full potential of this extension.
- Ocena: 1/5Autor: Rtux, 4 lata temuIt used to be a good extension but new version does not offer any additional functionality and monthly payment plan is not justified

My dear friends, you have so many opportunities in your life, to create and embrace change, to see and welcome the diversity of life around you as part of your education as a human being upon this school called planet earth.
Dr. Peebles Speaks • Excerpts from July 8, 2020 • Dr. Peebles through Summer Bacon
You are a beautiful spirit upon this school called planet earth. It is a time period of great separation, and yet, in that separation there is an enjoining together of human beings upon the earth, because you're discovering again that you need each other. You are discovering that you are made of the very same things, that you have a human heart, a beating heart, no matter the color, no matter the size, no matter the shape, no matter the sex of you. You have a beautiful beating heart and you have love within it, and you are going to find more and more ways in which to express it.

KANSAS CITY — Cinnamon is the star of several new product launches, from cereals to miniature donuts.
General Mills is pairing the spice with the sweetness of apples in its new cereal: Apple Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The toast-shaped cereal is flavored with apples, cinnamon and other natural flavors and contains no artificial flavors, colors from artificial sources or high-fructose corn syrup.
"We hear from people all the time about how well cinnamon and apples go together, so we knew we had to find a way to add apple into our Toast Crunch lineup," said Maria Carolina Commings, senior marketing manager on Cinnamon Toast Crunch. "We think cereal fans are really going to love what we came up with, and the unique flavor from real apples."
Cinnamon is in the spotlight in Hostess Brands' newest Donettes variety, Cinnamon Sugar Crunch Donettes. The miniature donuts are topped with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar with a crunchy crumb topping.
