Sir'Dominic Pointer was named to the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll on Monday marking the second-straight week he received the conference accolade. The 6-foot-6 senior led St. John's with 16.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 2.0 steals in two contests versus Creighton and Providence.
Pointer recorded his third-straight double-double on Wednesday posting 13 points and 10 rebounds to go with six assists, three blocks and three steals at Creighton. It was the sixth time this season that Pointer finished with double-digits in the rebounding column.
The Detroit native poured in a team-high 20 points shooting 6-of-10 from the field and 7-of-8 at the free-throw line on Saturday to lead St. John's to a 75-66 victory over Providence. Pointer led St. John's in assists for the fourth-straight game, handing out five, and grabbed seven rebounds. Defensively, he played a key role in limiting the BIG EAST leading scorer LaDontae Henton (20.4 ppg) to a 2-for-14 shooting performance.
Pointer hit 10-of-12 (83.3 percent) free-throw attempts in two games last week and converted 42.3 percent (11-of-26) of his field goal attempts. He also averaged 2.0 blocks and had a 1.8 assist-to-turnover ratio.
Sir'Dominic ranks among the BIG EAST leaders in several statistical categories this season. He is in the top-5 averaging 7.4 rebounds, 2.1 blocks and 2.1 steals. Pointer has also cracked the top-10 in field goal shooting percentage (51.9), assists (3.4) and assist-to-turnover ratio (1.9).
Averaging a career best 12.2 points, Pointer has recorded double-figures in the last six games beginning with an 18-point performance in a 13-point win at Providence on Jan. 14. During this recent six-game stretch, he has averaged 16.2 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 2.5 blocks and 1.8 steals.
Providence's Kris Dunn was named BIG EAST Player of the Week after posting the 14th triple-double in BIG EAST history on Thursday. Xavier's Trevon Bluiett was named Rookie of the Week. Pointer was joined on the honor roll by Andrew Chrabascz (Butler), D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera (Georgetown), Sterling Gibbs (Seton Hall) and Myles Davis (Xavier).
St. John's (14-7, 3-5) returns to action on Tuesday versus No. 25 Butler (16-6, 6-3) at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. FOX Sports 1 has the national broadcast at 7 p.m.

Inviting nature inside
Here in the Nordic countries, we have a strong tradition of using visible wooden elements in our interior design. Still, our bathrooms tend to be more white and sterile. These days, we definitely invite nature into our bathrooms which is reflected in the furniture where wood, texture, materials and processes are back on stage.

Data Backup and Recovery
I've installed SnapManager for exchange V6.0 on a windows cluster with Exchange 2007 SP2 RollUp2. When I try to execute a backup of a Storage Group I've a successfull result but nothing is done.
In the report I have the following message : "ESE Based backup is not supported by snapmanger for exchange v6.0 or later"
What it means? My version of exchange is not supported? Something else?
The issue is because SME cannot be sure which Exchange server is installed on your system.
You can do following to troubleshooting:
1) enable SME debug logging.
2) restart SME MMC Snapin.
3) check application event log, it will have an entry stating the OS and Exchange version SME detected.
4) check SME debug log.
Note above should be done from the owner node of the Exchange virtual server.
It seems that SME has the correct version in the logs...

Here are some posts I wrote on my Cal site about Craig Stevens's ability to squeeze into the Cover 2 defense and his blocking abilities at the end of this post. And also a memoriam post of his finest moments with the Bears here. I always thought Cal could have used him more, but I think he'll do great in the NFL.
Wish him all the best in Nashville. He's worked hard to get there and he'll do well for you guys.

A couple of weeks ago, the last of the new permanent planting was done in the Sunset Border.
Time now for a mulch of lovely leafmould which has been maturing in the corner of the woodland, this pile is 2 years old. This isn't a very good photograph, but the pile is about 3ft high and about 10ft long.
I managed to find some old seed packets that I thought would come in useful for sprinkling into the spaces between the plants.
All done, I will now just wait and see what develops, some seed may be too old, but I think the poppies should be ok, in the wild they survive for hundreds of years!
Below is a list of the plants that I have planted.
Acer palmatum Shindeshojo, Aquilegia Canadensis, Azalea japonica Blaauw's Pink, Carex testocea, Digitalis Milk Chocolate, Geranium Rozanne, Geum Totally Tangerine, Hakonechloa macra All Gold, Heuchera red, H Tiramisu, Hosta Devon Blue, Nemesia, Papaver nudicaule Garden Gnome, Pulmonaria Blue Ensign, P. Sissinghurst White, The St. Rita's Rose. Some of these poor plants have been waiting for such a long time to be planted, I'm sure that they are breathing a sigh of relief at being able to get their roots into the soil at last.
I can now move on and get the next bed weeded, if I spend a week on each border, we might have the whole garden looking tidy by August. The temperature rising this week means that I will have to get my gardening done early morning or in the evening, at least that means I can watch Wimbledon with a clear conscience!
Many thanks to Helen for hosting the End of Month review at The Patient Gardener, do pay her a visit to see what other gardeners have been doing this month.
I believe that some of you have not been receiving e.mails to tell of posts that I have published. This happened to both our children and I suggested that they re-subscribe, having done so, they now receive e.mails once more. Please can I suggest that you do the same.

Stocks vs Funds: Beat the Market or Beat Your Goals
Note: Post may contain affiliate links.
Use a stress-free investing strategy in funds and still beat your goals
Turn to your favorite investing channel or click through to just about any financial blog and all you hear is stocks, stocks, stocks.
Everyone is trying to find that next stock that will make them rich.
But is that the best way to invest? Is investing in mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) a better and easier strategy?
What are the factors that make funds a better investment versus stocks?
Individual Stocks Are More Volatile
Yes, individual stocks have a higher potential return. You also have to pick the right ones to get those amazing returns. Invest in the wrong stock and you'll seriously underperform the market.
General Electric's share price has declined 43% in 2017, while the S&P 500 gained 20% in the same 12-month window. A $1,000 investment in GE would only be worth $670 while investing in an S&P 500 index fund would have a market value near $1,200.
If GE is the bulk of your portfolio, you would be missing out on the historic gains the broad market has enjoyed this year.
To avoid this volatility and uncertainty, I primarily invest in mutual funds and ETFs that hold positions in as little as 70 companies or as many as 2,000 depending on the fund's investment strategy. By holding numerous stocks, the fund automatically diversifies and the bad performance of one stock will not necessarily drag on the performance of the fund.
Your funds might own General Electric, but if it's only a small portion of the total portfolio allocation, the positive performance of the other holdings can hopefully absorb GE's 43% decline.
If you can't stomach the roller coaster volatility of stocks and don't know how to build a diversified stock portfolio, you should invest in mutual funds and ETFs instead. Funds have their bad days too, but the gains and losses are usually less extreme. To minimize your volatility as much as possible, many investors like investing in index mutual funds because they try to mimic (not outperform) their benchmark index.
It's extremely hard to beat the market and funds do a good job of producing consistent, positive returns without an excessive amount of risk.
You will still need to choose several different funds to diversify your portfolio and a diversified portfolio helps ensure you own both winners and losers, instead of only losers.
Anybody Can Afford an ETF
A single share of Amazon stock currently costs about $1,100. If you can only invest $100 a month, you have to wait an entire year to save up $1,100 to buy Amazon. If the share price continues to climb while you save, you may never be able to afford to buy a share of Amazon.
I don't know about you, but I want my money to immediately earn passive income. If you have just started investing, putting all your money into a single stock is extremely risky and not the wisest use of your money, in my opinion
How do you buy Amazon stock without sinking your entire life savings into the market?
While you can buy fractional shares of individual companies on some online investing sites, mutual funds and ETFs also let you own a small piece of many companies with expensive individual stocks.
For example, if you want to invest in Facebook, Netflix, Google, Amazon, or Apple, some S&P 500 funds will let you invest as little as $100 per trade. Google or Amazon might each only be 1% of the total portfolio, but you can still capture any future gains from these companies.
Stop Wasting Time Picking Stocks
For full disclosure, I do own five individual stocks, but the overwhelming majority of my portfolio is composed of active and passive mutual funds and ETFs. I like the additional exposure to select dividend-paying blue chip companies that I believe make good long-term investments.
Before I bought these stocks, I spent several days researching to ensure they were a good buy. Although I'm in a financial position to buy more individual stocks, I don't have the time to research potential buys and monitor the performance of more than a handful at one time.
I'm sure you don't have time to watch every market move either. That's why funds are so popular too. We trust the fund manager to make smart investing decisions because it's their profession and they know more about the market than us casual investors. We can focus on saving for retirement, picking the kids up from school, and finishing the work project while the fund manager analyzes the P/E ratio, and K-10 reports.
You should still research the performance and fundamentals of a prospective mutual fund or ETF before you make a trade. Read the prospectus to familiarize yourself with the fund investment strategy, analyze the holdings, and compare similar funds' expense ratios and holdings.
Even though the fund manager handles the day-to-day administrative duties like portfolio rebalancing, it's still your responsibility to exercise due diligence. At the end of the day, it's still your money, ask anyone who invested with Bernie Madoff.
There's a Fund for Every Asset Class and Investment Strategy
While mutual fund and ETF investing are sometimes considered boring compared to the thrill of discovering the next Amazon, Google, or Microsoft, investing in funds can be exhilarating.
Your only investment option isn't the passively managed index funds that only try to match the performance of a particular index like the S&P 500, Russell 2000, or the Dow. Numerous funds let you invest in specific sectors (technology, consumer staples); commodities (precious metals, alternative energy); and different asset classes (developing markets, domestic large-cap growth, small-cap value).
There are thousands of funds to choose from that can make investing fun and lucrative while maintaining a diversified portfolio. International funds can be a great way to invest in foreign markets that periodically outperform the U.S. market and for some additional portfolio diversification.
Automatic diversification at a low trading price might be the best reason to buy funds because anyone with the smallest income can invest and let every penny earn compound interest. Since funds make investing simple and affordable for even the most inexperienced of investors, mutual funds and ETFs can be the most valuable financial tool you can use to accomplish your money goals.

If you have been injured in an accident, you are undoubtedly dealing with physical pain, emotional stress and multiple doctor's appointments.
When you report the accident to your insurance company, they will ask you to provide documentation of your expenses. They will then make you a settlement offer.
Before you accept any offer from an insurance company, you should always consult with a Spring Hill personal injury attorney. Insurance companies have entire legal departments committed to keeping your money in their pockets. You need someone who knows the law to advocate on your behalf.
What to Look for in an Attorney
It is important to find a lawyer who has many years of experience with personal injury law in the state of Florida.
Your attorney should be well versed in dealing with insurance companies and should be someone who stays on top of changes to and interpretations of the law in your state.
It is always important to make sure they are in good standing with the state bar and that their previous clients have given them good reviews.
What Information Your Attorney and Insurance Company Need
Florida is a no-fault state when it comes to auto insurance, which means that your own insurance company will pay for your injuries and for the damages to your car, no matter who is at fault. As you can imagine, insurance companies are not fond of this rule because they have to pay each time one of their clients has an accident.
It is important to keep careful records of every expense that is related to your accident. Save each medical bill you have and save the receipts for both prescription and nonprescription drugs. Remember to save the receipts for any form of alternative health treatments, such as flotation therapy or cryotherapy.
If your injury forced to hire professional assistance, such as a home healthcare worker, housekeeper or babysitter, be sure to document those expenses.
If you have missed time off of work, be sure to obtain a letter from the human resources office of your company stating the number of hours that you have missed.
Be sure to provide all of this documentation to your insurance company and bring the same documentation to your initial consultation with your attorney.
Exceptions to the No Fault Rule
Although the no fault rule was implemented to reduce the amount of auto accident related lawsuits in the state of Florida, there are still some circumstances under which you may want to sue.
If your accident was the fault of the other driver and resulted in permanent disfigurement or if your bills exceeded $10,000, you may be able to sue the other driver's insurance company.
If the other driver was at fault and they are uninsured, you may want to discuss the feasibility of a lawsuit with your lawyer.
If your accident happened in another state, your insurance company may refuse to pay the bill depending on the kind of policy you have. You may be able to sue the other driver's insurance company depending on the laws of that particular state.
A car accident with injuries is always the beginning of a trying time in a person's life.
Keeping sound records, staying in touch with your insurance company and hiring a good personal injury lawyer in Spring Hill can make all the difference in your recovery and in recovering your money.

We're used to hating on Wall Street. Silicon Valley? Not so much. But though they produce different products — mortgage applications vs apps — look beyond the initial interface design and the two are actually not all that different.
"If Goldman is a giant face-sucking squid then Google and Facebook are Predator and Alien," said Scott Galloway, a professor of marketing at NYU's Stern School of Business.
Both Silicon Valley and Wall Street are made up of powerful companies focused on shareholders. So both should fall under the same scrutiny, said Galloway.
"At the end of the day, it's the same dog, different fleas," he said. "The best kids in my class at NYU ten years ago went to work for Goldman. Now they're going to work for Facebook and Amazon."
The tech industry, he notes, has some built in advantages. "People feel more affection for their iPhone than their mortgage," he said.
Lately, however, the tech industry has come under growing scrutiny. There are rumors that Hulk Hogan's lawsuit against online magazine Gawker, over a leaked sex tape, may be bankrolled by valley billionaire Peter Theil. Amazon was outed as a heartless employer. And residents of San Francisco are up in arms over reports that the city is quickly becoming gentrified by new tech money.
Still, Silicon Valley has done a better job branding itself than Wall Street, said Thomas Ordahl, chief strategy officer at global branding firm Landor. Just ask the average American to name a few wall street leaders, he said, and many of us of us would have a hard time.
"In some ways, Wall Street is hidden behind Wall Street, he said. "It's more of a place and an entity and an industry than it is a collection of individual people."
He continued, "but if you ask them about Silicon Valley I'll bet they could come up with a few names quite quickly."
Names like Steve Jobs, Sheryl Sandberg, Mark Zuckerberg. Names that wield enormous power.
Silicon Valley should be in the spotlight said Jospeh Turow, the Robert Lewis Shayon Professor of Communication at the University of Pennsylvania's Annenburg school of Communications.
"There's almost no part of society, that Silicon Valley, writ large, doesn't touch," he said.
"It helps to guide the critical technologies of our society. It's publishing society's most widespread stories, news and entertainment. It's interfacing with the educational system, the retailing system and the security system, and Wall Street," he said.
Tech companies, notes Turrow, have begun to realize that in order to be successful they need to have influence in government, and in politics.
"Over a decade ago, Google and Facebook had almost nobody in the lobbying industry," said Turow. "But now, they're major powers in that area. They themselves have begun to realize that to be players, you have to play."

Microsoft has been hinting that its Teams collaboration service will be coming to Linux for some time, but it finally confirmed it back in September. Today, the company announced that Teams for Linux is now available in public preview, so you can try it out right now.
"2019 has been another incredible year in open source, and Linux continues to be at the heart of all the growth and innovation," said Jim Zemline, Executive Director at The Linux Foundation. "I'm really excited about the availability of Microsoft Teams for Linux. With this announcement, Microsoft is bringing its hub for teamwork to Linux. I'm thrilled to see Microsoft's recognition of how companies and educational institutions alike are using Linux to transform their work culture."
Microsoft says that Teams is the first Microsoft 365 app to come to desktop Linux, since apparently it doesn't consider Skype a Microsoft 365 app. The firm will support all core functionality on the open-source platform.
Bringing Teams to Linux is a key element in compating with Slack, the chief competitor to Teams. Many businesses run a hybrid environment with different operating systems, so not having Teams on Linux was a major roadblock to migrating to Microsoft's service, even if they were getting it as part of a Microsoft 365 subscription. Now, that roadblock is gone.
Teams for Linux is in public preview now, you you can download it here in .deb and .rpm formats.

Packaging is a critical component of a products supply chain
Packaging is a critical component of a products supply chain and serves a specific purpose in its protection, distribution and marketing. It helps reduce waste and spoilage that would occur without it and communicates a products key attributes.
However, because packaging fulfils its function before the use phase of the product it protects, and is then discarded, it is often considered a nuisance product and the rigid and flexible plastic producers often get criticism for the products they produce from both governments and the public. This is mostly unjustified as the visibility of plastic waste is largely due to irresponsible littering and the lack of recycling facilities that are easily accessed by the public.
In my experience most plastic producers genuinely want to address these issues both from a moral standpoint and from a business one. There is little they can do about the two issues of littering and recycling facilities, but there are a number of different solutions to the perception of plastics in the public's eye as well as the environmental aspects of a product that is perceived as using up natural resources and difficult to dispose of after its purpose has been fulfilled.
Such products as bioplastics, oxo degradable & anaerobic additives and other products are available but this market area is often criticised on the grounds of green washing.
My view to these products, whatever the pros and cons of the products being marketed, is that something is better than nothing. As time goes on, a clear favourite will emerge that may not even have been invented yet but for now, almost anyone of these products in its right place should be used.
Why are they not more widely used? In my experience, Retailers as well as some plastic product manufacturers put cost at the top of the list of reasons to do nothing. Everyone wants to get cost out of their business, not add it. It is easier to say their product is recyclable – which for the most part, they are. However are they being recycled? In the case of flexible packaging the answer is that most are not, (there are 398 local authorities, each with a different approach to waste) so until an easily accessible and affordable recycling system is in place, a solution to the enormous quantities of post-consumer plastic packaging needs addressing.
There are various objections to each technology on the market that have claims to have a solution to post-consumer plastic. The pros and cons are widely debated and I have no interest in joining those debates. In my view, each technology has its place and they should be embraced, as they are all better than doing nothing.
The message that I hear however, is that there seem to be two aspects that the end users like.
- Sustainability. They like a product that is harvested not mined.
- Reduced use of oil based resins.
Growing crops that are renewable is, to a degree, sustainable. Light weighting reduces the amount of oil based resins. The former still has the price issue, and the latter has a limit as to how far you can go and still produce a functional product.
So what if there was a product that came from a genuinely sustainable source: A product that is mostly from the waste stream of an existing industry that would otherwise be thrown away and there is a constant source of the material. No land or resources used that could otherwise be used for food production.
And that this product could reduce the use of oil based resins by up to 40% thus reducing the use of a non-renewable source.
And what if this product also silenced the number one objection of price? i.e. not paying a green premium (people paying more because it's green) but being able to offer a green differentiation, (meaning if a customer has two choices that provide the same performance but one is renewable and sustainable).
If it could be used for flexible HDPE & LDPE films and rigid HDPE, Polypropylene & Polystyrene and when it is blended with conventional synthetic polymers, it creates a durable bio-plastic that can be used to make extruded, thermo-formed and injection-moulded items.
So I went in search of such a product. It took some time. Almost all were easily discarded because the primary criteria that it must not increase the price of the end product could not be met.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, I think I have found it. So if a retailer or plastic producer wants to try to address the environmental issues relating to plastics and plastic packaging without paying a green premium as well as using a renewable and sustainable product, please contact me. firstname.lastname@example.com

"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:23) "I love you, and because I love you, I would sooner have you hate me for telling you the truth than adore me for telling you lies."- Pietro Aretino. The truth hurts sometimes; we all know that and many would rather be liked and thought of as being open minded and not inclusive than shining the light on some form of darkness. Jesus came to show and teach us the truth and look at what He went through; but to Him, we were worth it. We all might skirt around the truth sometimes, but like the darkness of a room when the light is shone, the light will prevail. Stand up and speak the truth, shine the light of truth…God is worth it.

Asking for It
You know, when the sign right next to you says 'don't feed the sea lions' and you do? Well, you get exactly what you deserve.
When you taunt a 300-500 lb wild animal repeatedly and then sit down and turn your back to it? Well, you get exactly what you deserve.
My favourite was on NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt (I think I'm obligated to say all of that), and some guy for the area up in Vancouver (or wherever that took place) ridiculed the family as basically being idiots, equating what they did as taking a lunchbox up to a bear.
Well, I suppose her tiger mom is watching over now, as she completes her college essay while the event is still fresh in her mind.
The other is going to an Ariana Grande concert.
Explosives notwithstanding.......you just had to figure there'd be bombs. ....and I'm just talking about the music...........am I right? am I right?
....yeah, I'm right.
Too soon?
Too bad.

Re the sea lion. Exactly what I thought when I saw the clip on our news. Honestly, some people are so damn stupid! And I bet they're STILL saying it's the animal's fault and are demanding its life.
Unsurprisingly, I'd never heard of Ariana Grande. In fact when I saw the news at 4 a.m. I assumed that she was a group! Anyway, now she gets publicity of the most undesirable kind even though her name will now be manifold times better known. Horrible though. :-(

By Gethin Coolbaugh, Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) -- Brad Marchand has a knack for the net in overtime. A lucky bounce helped him get another winner for the Bruins on Sunday.
Marchand scored 4:03 into the extra period after his shot deflected off an opponent's skate, extending Boston's points streak to seven games with a 2-1 victory over the Colorado Avalanche.
Patrice Bergeron left the puck at the top of the right circle for Marchand, who skated into the slot and inadvertently used Matt Calvert's skate to get the puck past goalie Semyon Varlamov.

Words similar to decondensation
Example sentences for: decondensation
How can you use "decondensation" in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
These covalent and non-covalent catalytic actions on the chromatin can result in condensation or decondensation of chromatin, either locally or on the chromosomal scale, and thereby regulate access of transcription factors and other proteins to the chromatin.
A nucleic acid binding domain in the C-terminus of nucleophosmin is also lacking in NPM3 and nucleoplasmin, but the known functions of nucleoplasmin in nucleosome assembly and sperm decondensation suggest that this protein, and possibly NPM3, can accomplish intermolecular reactions involving nucleic acids in other ways, perhaps by associating with other proteins that have this binding activity.
In concert with the unrelated acidic protein N1/N2, which binds histones H3 and H4, they act together and with other factors to assemble nucleosomes [ 2 3 ] . In addition to assembly, nucleoplasmin and other proteins are involved in the chromatin remodeling and nucleosome disassembly that occurs, for example, during transcription to allow the access of transcription factors to nucleosomal DNA [ 4 ] . Another major function of nucleoplasmin is the decondensation of sperm chromatin at fertilization.
In this case, nucleoplasmin acts to exchange the sperm specific basic proteins, which allow the dense packing of DNA in sperm, with the histones H2A and H2B, thus effecting chromatin decondensation [ 5 6 ] . Phosphorylation of nucleoplasmin appears to be important in regulating this activity, as heavily phosphorylated nucleoplasmin is significantly more active [ 7 ] .

This recipe for Chocolate Raspberry Candy is simple, and can be made ahead of time as well. A creamy raspberry filling is sandwiched between two layers of semi-sweet chocolate with a sprinkling of freeze dried raspberries on top for an extra hit of flavor. It's definitely decadent, but it's also made healthier with whole food ingredients. It's gluten free, dairy free, vegan, and paleo friendly as well.
This recipe is inspired by my love of the classic peanut butter cups. There's just something about that combo, and the soft filling sandwiched between 2 layers of chocolate! Both Tyler and I love chocolate and raspberry together, so it only seemed natural to create a candy with that addictive combo.
As it turns out, the peanut butter cup shape works perfectly for all sorts of yummy creations like this chocolate raspberry one! These lovely little candies are made just like peanut butter cups, so they're pretty easy to make.
There's no candy thermometer or anything like that involved. Simply melt some chocolate to coat the bottom of muffin cup liners, add the filling, then top with more chocolate. From there it's all chocolate bliss!
These also make wonderful gifts because you can make them ahead and store them in either the fridge or the freezer. From a simple desserts for dinner parties right through holidays like Valentine's Day, these are sure to please!
Ingredients & Substitutions
- Chocolate chips – I use semi-sweet chocolate chips here because they have the best texture. Dark chocolate can be tricky to work with, so I don't recommend it here. For allergy friendly chocolate chips, try Enjoy Life. They also taste amazing, and even the semi-sweet chips have a nice dark chocolate flavor.
- Coconut oil – goes in with the chocolate chips to soften the chocolate. But it also goes in the filling to create the ultra silky smooth texture.
- Frozen raspberries – work perfectly here because you're cooking them into a sauce. There's no need to pay for fresh berries in this case!
- Tapioca starch – thickens the raspberry sauce and works with the coconut oil to make just the right texture.
- Maple syrup – Grade A amber with it's light maple flavor makes the perfect natural sweetener for the filling.
- Vanilla & almond extracts – just a touch of both really elevates the filling. The almond extract is very subtle, no obvious flavor. But if you really don't like it, you can leave it out. It's only there to enhance, not overpower the raspberries.
- Freeze dried raspberries – are optional, but they look and taste great on top of these candies.
How to make this Chocolate Raspberry Candy recipe step by step
Step 1: Start by making the raspberry sauce, then add the coconut oil.
Step 2: Carefully whisk in the coconut oil until it's mostly combined, then strain the raspberry sauce through a fine mesh sieve to remove all raspberry seeds. Let the sauce cool to room temperature.
Important Note! The raspberry sauce will be very thick, and have an almost unpleasant tapioca texture. Don't worry this will disappear after blending! The super thick texture is needed to make sure the final filling sets up, so don't worry if it looks gloppy, the magic happens in the blender!
Step 3: Place the cooled and strained filling into a blender and blend until smooth. Then place in the refrigerator. This is where the magic happens in the filling. It goes from unpleasantly thick, to silky smooth, then ultra creamy once chilled.
Step 4: While the filling chills, melt the chocolate over low heat stirring constantly. You can also use a double boiler as called for in the recipe to make sure the chocolate doesn't get too hot. It's important to keep the heat low because chocolate becomes grainy when it's overheated.
Step 5: Next spoon a bit of the melted chocolate into a muffin cup liner. Then tilt the muffin cup liner to coat the bottom of the paper and about 1/2″ up the sides. Set each muffin cup into a muffin tin, then chill 10 minutes or so until set.
Step 6: Then add the filling to each muffin cup liner, and top with the remaining chocolate, tilting the cups to evenly coat the tops. Sprinkle the top of each chocolate with a pinch of crushed freeze dried raspberries.
Finally chill again until thoroughly set, 2-3 hours, then remove the paper wrappers and place into a sealed container.
Ways to serve this Chocolate Raspberry Candy
- Try them as a Valentine's Day dessert after my Cheese Board Date for 2.
- Serve these as 'after dinner chocolates' for any dinner party.
- Pick one of my 15 Easy and Affordable Date Nights and take these for dessert if you have something fun in nature planned. Or have them for dessert if you cook dinner together. They're the perfect date night option because they're make ahead!
I don't recommend either because dark chocolate is too tricky to work with in this case. It can easily become grainy, and it's texture is too hard in relation to the creamy raspberry filling.
Again I don't recommend it simply because it's a bit too soft. You would need less coconut oil for sure, but I have tested amounts. The semi-sweet chocolate chips are the perfect pairing for the raspberry filling.
Storing leftovers
- To store – place the candies into an airtight sealed container in the fridge for up to 1 week. These cannot be stored at room temperature because of the fruit filling, but you can bring them up to room temperature 1-2 hours before serving.
- To freeze – place the candies into a sealed container and freeze for up to 3 months.
Tips & Tricks
- Be very careful not to overheat the chocolate. It will become grainy and is ruined if this happens. I don't know of any way to fix it, so a few minutes of attention while constantly stirring is worth it!
- As I mentioned above, don't worry about the super thick gloppy texture of the filling! This will change as it's blended and chilled. The final result is silky smooth and creamy just like the photos.

Chocolate Raspberry Candy
- Total Time: 1 hour
- Yield: 16 candy cups 1x
- Diet: Gluten Free
This recipe for Chocolate Raspberry Candy is simple and can be made ahead of time as well.A creamy raspberry filling is sandwiched between two layers of semi-sweet chocolate with a sprinkling of freeze dried raspberries on top for an extra flavor hit. It's definitely decadent, but it's also made healthier with whole food ingredients. It's gluten free, dairy free, vegan, and paleo friendly as well.
Raspberry Cream Filling:
1/4 cup maple syrup, Grade A amber for lightest flavor
1 Tablespoon tapioca starch
1 1/2 cups frozen raspberries, 5 ounces
1/2 Teaspoon almond extract
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup room temperature coconut oil
Chocolate Candy Cup Shells:
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, I use the Enjoy Life brand which is free of most allergens
1 Tablespoon room temperature coconut oil
Optional: 2 Tablespoons crushed freeze dried raspberries for topping
In a medium sized saucepan, whisk together the maple syrup and tapioca starch until no lumps remain. Then add the frozen raspberries, and place the saucepan over medium high heat.
Cook, stirring constantly until the sauce has thickened. Then remove the raspberry sauce from the heat and whisk in the almond extract and vanilla extract. Carefully whisk in the oil, but don't worry if it doesn't completely combine.
Strain the raspberry sauce through a fine mesh sieve, and let the seedless raspberry sauce cool until it's barely warm, or at room temperature. Then place the sauce in a high powered blender. Blend starting on low and working up to higher speeds using the tamper to keep the mixture moving in the blender. Blend until the sauce is completely smooth and silky in texture.
It's important to blend the sauce to make sure the coconut oil is completely emulsified. You will have about 1 cup finished filling. From here you can refrigerate the finished raspberry cream filling until the next day, or place it in the fridge and begin assembling the candy cups right away.
For the chocolate candy cup shells, melt the chocolate and coconut oil together in a double boiler over low heat, stirring as the chocolate melts. It's very important not to overheat the chocolate which will cause it to be grainy in texture.
Next set out 14-16 paper muffin liners. When the chocolate is smooth, spoon a small amount into the muffin liners, one at a time. Tilt the papers to swirl the chocolate to cover the bottom, and come up the sides about 1/2″.
When all 16 liners have been coated, place them on a flat tray or in a muffin tin, and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, about 10 minutes.
Then spoon about 1 tablespoon of raspberry cream filling onto the center of each chocolate cup. Finally use the remaining chocolate to carefully spoon over the top of the raspberry cream filling to cover the top of the candy cup. Tilt each chocolate cup to cover the raspverry filling.
As you top each candy cup with the chocolate, sprinkle a small amount of the crushed freeze dried raspberries over the top for decoration if desired.
When you've finished the candy cups, refrigerate until completely set, about 2-3 hours.
These can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 1 week, or frozen for up to 3 months..

Thread: Ball Screw Accuracy V Price
31-12-2009 #1
Do any of the learned members have views on the accuracy/repeatability of C5 compared to C7 Ball Screws. Also, is the extra cost of C5 kit worthwhile for the sort of work folks produce? For myself it is something I may consider bearing in mind one of the things I am looking to do is the engraving of custom made Fountain Pens (I already have an interested party in such a project)

I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

31-12-2009 #2
If your leadscrew is a 5mm pitch, direct driven then you are looking at a resolution of .025mm per step, or 25000um. With a C7 screw your worst case error is 208/25000 = 0.8% per step, with C5 its 0.16% per step.
Spending your money on making the machine rigid and look at double preloaded nuts to remove backlash will improve the accuracy far more than going from C7 to C5!
Basically for engraving a fountain pen there is absolutely no point, as your engraving tip is massive compared to this error (and anyway the rigidity of the machine will introduce larger errors).
31-12-2009 #3
I thought so, and deep down I probably knew it as well. Thanks for putting me straight. I have a nasty habit of trying to 'over engineer' things which normally leads to me making any sort of project far more complex and costly than I can cope with. Net result ... Frustration and failure.Tim G-C

As pointed out C5 while nice, is not really needed.
I sell quite a lot of ball screws for cnc machines and have only been asked once for C5, and for such a small axis it does not offer any great advantage.
Zero backlash and making the machine solid is good though.Visit Us: www.automationshop.co.uk

02-01-2010 #6
Over a 300mm length C7 gives a overall worst case positional accuracy of .07% and C5 gives 0.013%
If absolute step position is paramount then C7 gives, worst case on 5mm pitch, an absolute step to step position error of 2% (of resolution) against C5 of 0.8%
Doesnt change the conclusion tho, C5 is an unnecessary expense

What Happened at Pete's Place
Mike sticks his finger in his mouth as Pete looks on in horror.
On Saturday, I went over to Pete's place to help our friend Colin playtest his new Traveller module. Mike and Jeff were there, too.
Any roleplayer will tell you that a typical session consists of 90% idle chat, and 10% gaming - if you're lucky. So it was this Saturday eve.
Would you eat this?
First, we taste-tested a mind-bending new potato chip: Old Dutch's "Szechuan Beef" flavour. Not since the halcyon days of Hostess' "French Fries with Gravy" and "Cheeseburger (fully loaded)" have I seen a more ominous-looking bag of chips, so naturally I had to give them a try.
Ack! (Photo courtesy of Mike Totman)
While my friends gave the chips a passing grade, I found them as revolting as I'd anticipated, even though I went in with an open mind. But as far as I'm concerned, Szechuan Beef chips taste like someone left some plain chips in the deep fryer overnight - granted, a deep fryer that had been used to make Szechuan beef, but still...
These Eyes...do do dee do do...
Midway through the evening, Jeff asked Mike, "Have your eyes always been different colours?" Mike said yes, and I was a little taken aback. I asked for a closer look (not that close, you perverts) and lo and behold, Mike, like Jane Seymour (mmmm...Jane Seymour) does indeed posess one brown eye, and one green. At least, that's how they look to me. Funny the things you can miss even after you've known someone for a few years, but then, I don't make a habit of staring deeply into Mike's eyes, whatever Sylvia may claim.
Fiendish evildoer Pete enjoys his ill-gotten gains.
Finally, Pete's bookshelves have at last been completed, and green with envy, I took a couple of photos of his magnificent library. These are gorgeous shelves, extending floor to ceiling, with beautiful brass grommets and even a ladder. I could spend hours in there, but I'm sure Pete and his girlfriend would eventually grow tired of me, so for now I'll just have to dream of a day when I might possess such peerless shelving. Here's another photo, taken with my little Pentax's panoramic feature.
Click to embiggen!
Colin attempts to get the session back on track. Ha ha, good luck.
As for the game, we managed to land on a planet made of poisonous fungus, and Jeff ran over a guy with a hoverjeep, shattering both shins. Not Jeff's shins, the other guy's shins. (Though if you know Jeff, you know that the odds that he's shattered his shins at one point in his life or another are actually pretty high.) He also shot a couple of people. And I bought a weapon called a "puke stick."
This...is my Puke Stick. (Say it in a Bruce Campbell voice.)
You poke, they puke.
You know, come to think of it, these games we play sure contain a lot of senseless violence. I'm not sure if our actions were useful for Colin's playtest, but he knew what he was getting into when he recruited us, I guess.

Oh my aching head, I hurt it from laughing too much! I poke, you puke, ha,ha,ha!

Online tools for free cooling from the Green Grid
Portland, OR — The Green Grid last week announced the availability of a free online tool and maps designed to help North American data centre and facilities managers easily determine how much outside air – also known as free cooling – is available for individual data centres. The use of free cooling can help data centre managers lower energy consumption and related costs, and potentially can extend the life of data centre facilities.
April 17, 2009 By Newswire
Founded in 2007, The Green Grid is a global consortium dedicated to advancing energy efficiency in data centres and business computing ecosystems.
"Data centres with increasing IT loads require more power to cool them, so finding cooling options that use less power is critical not only for organizations that don't have resources to build new facilities but also for those that want to save money," said Mark Monroe, a director of The Green Grid. "For much of the year, the air outside data centres can be cooler than the air inside. The tool that The Green Grid has developed will help determine how much free cooling a specific data centre can leverage."
Using postal codes and zip codes, the tool allows users in the United States and Canada to input their specific variables — such as local energy costs, IT load, and facility load — to determine the energy savings for individual facilities. In addition to free cooling from outside air, the tool provides information about savings that could be obtained using water-side economizers. For example:
A 1 megawatt (1000kW) data centre in San Jose, zip code 95101,with power at a cost of 12.78 cents per kW hour, could save $66,000 per year using free cooling, or $160,000 per year using a water-side economizer.
A 1 megawatt (1000kW) data center in Herndon, VA, zip code 20170, with power at 8.14 cents per kW hour, could save $20,000 per year using free cooling, or $130,000 per year using a water-side economizer.
Members of The Green Grid will have access to a high-resolution graphical map of free cooling throughout the U.S. and Canada, while non-members can download a low-resolution version in the "Library and Tools" section of The Green Grid Web site. Maps by specific zip or postal code can be obtained by contacting Weatherbank, Inc.
The Green Grid's free cooling tool contains information from 2,186 weather stations throughout the United States and Canada. The database consists of all hourly observations taken during the period extending from 1999 through 2008. This count of hours is then divided by 10 (total years of data) to provide a result of the "normal" number of occurrences during a given year. The total number of hours of available free cooling will always range from 0 to 8760 hours.
The Next Step In Data Center Efficiency
Following on the introduction last year of PUE and DCiE metrics which help end-users separate and measure their facility power consumption from their IT power consumption, The Green Grid is exploring different methods for measuring and reporting energy efficiency and data centre productivity (DCP). Potential measurements of useful work in data centers, the "Proxies for Estimating Data Center Productivity," are open for public comment.
All white papers that are available to the general public can be downloaded at no cost from the "Library and Tools" section of The Green Grid's Web site.
About The Green Grid
The Green Grid is a global consortium of companies dedicated to advancing energy efficiency in data centres and computing ecosystems. The Green Grid does not endorse any vendor-specific products or solutions, and will seek to provide industry-wide recommendations on best practices, metrics and technologies that will improve overall data center energy efficiencies. Membership is open to companies interested in data centre operational efficiency at the Contributing or General Member level. General members attend and participate in general meetings of The Green Grid, review proposals for specifications and have access to specifications for test suites and design guidelines and IP licensing.

Customer Reviews
I purchased two of these bras when I was nursing my first son in June 2009. They were so comfortable that I continued to wear them during the 14 months I nursed him and beyond. When I had my second son in July 2011, I contacted my hospital's lactation services office (where I purchased my first bras) only to find that they no longer sold the Bravado Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra. I was happy to find that Figure 8 Maternity sold the bras online and had a variety of colors/sizes available (I bought 3 more... black, pink and blue ice). This bra is extremely comfortable, the clasps that allow for nursing are simple and very sturdy, the stitching is very durable and the bra itself is simple yet pretty. I also like that there's no under-wire (I'm normally a D cup, so I usually NEED under-wire, but not with this bra-it holds very well). I hope that the Bravado Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra continues to be produced and sold as many nursing moms can get a lot of good, comfortable use from it!

I really like this Bra. I initially ordered the Cake Cotton Candy nursing bra, but it was not a good fit for me at all. The Cake bra felt like a large sports bra (I am on the smaller side even approaching 9 mo. pregnant), you even needed to slip it over your head which is a bit cumbersome when dealing with sore breasts. The Bravado was so much more comfortable for me. There was adequate coverage, but it still gave me some shape and the ability to wear t-shirt tops and the like. The cups unclip and fold down easily. I have tried a lot of nursing bras because I wanted something that was functional but didn't make me feel completely frumpy. I like this bra so much more than expected and have ordered more colors.
Reviewed by S. H. (Dallas, TX), 8 + months pregnant
I love this bra. I had one for my first child and it lasted throughout our 2.5 year nursing relationship. It was always my go-to bra and the one I recommend to other new nursing moms. Provides good support without a wire and the modesty cups stay in place and provide enough coverage. Ordered another one for baby 2. Currently 28 weeks pregnant and this bra is very comfortable. I'm currently about 150 lbs (130 pre-pregnancy), probably a C cup--the Medium fits great on the widest setting so I know it will fit when my ribs go back down to normal after the baby comes.
Reviewed by C. G. (Columbia Heights, MN)
Best bra around. I have tried other nursing bras, and they have proven to be not worth the time/discomfort of ever taking this bra off. I have been wearing this bra pretty much exclusively for the past six months, and the adjustable sizing means that even as my breasts have changed with the roller coaster that is breastfeeding, it still fits! Super comfortable, doesn't show through fitted shirts, and really well made (I have thrown this into the washing machine instead of hand washing and it is still in good shape). This is the only nursing bra you will need!
Reviewed by J. I. (Redondo Beach, CA), nursing 6 month old
It is comfortable and well made. However, the removable pads are strange. Mine came with creases already and were very visible from the outside of the bra. They did look okay under clothing and hide nursing pads well, but like others mentioned, they are hard to fold down while nursing. Maybe they would be less noticeable if I had a larger chest (b cup on a good day- I got a size small) to fill out the bra better. I kept it because it hides nursing pads well and gives me a nice shape under clothes, but I was expecting more.
Reviewed by a. h. (Windham, NH)
I LOVE this nursing bra! All the reviews I read said it was great but I was so hesitant to spend the money that I missed out on this bra for the first 8 months of breastfeeding. I should have bought this as my first nursing bra. It's stretchy and comfortable enough you coukd wear it immediately after having a baby. And what I love about it so much now is that it gives me support and shape without underwrite. I absolutely recommend this nursing bra! Buy it now so you can get more use out of it!
Reviewed by A. A. (Nokesville, VA), Nursing an 8 month old
This is such a comfortable bra. I haven't nursed innit yet but wear it as a sleeping bra. It felt a tad snug at first but fit well in the cups do I kept my normal size based on the size chart. After wearing it, I no longer feel it is too snug, just perfect. Comfortable to sleep in and the cup pads keep it modest for lounge wear. I'm a 34 B and went with a small. This isn't my first baby so I know from previous experience that even when milk comes in it should still fit nicely.
Reviewed by C. T. (Pflugerville, TX), 36 weeks pregnant
I love the body silk bra! I am a 34 G and the medium gives me enough support to get through my daily routine. Obviously it's not enough for a workout, and doesn't give me the nice shape an underwire bra does, but it is so comfortable most of the time I don't care! I will say, especially having a larger bust, the cup inserts are worthless. They look like scoops of ice cream set on top of my breasts. That being said, the bra is so comfortable, I just use it without the inserts.

Legend of the Lost Dutchman
Note to runners: this video portrays the beauty of the lofty Superstition Mountain area. While the Lost Dutchman Marathon runs along the foot of the Superstitions, it is NOT A MOUNTAIN RACE.
The Superstition Mountains (their name inspired by Pima Indian legends) have been a source of mystery and legend since early times. The area is dotted with ancient cliff dwellings and caves, many showing signs of former habitation. It is not certain who these people were; some believe they were Salado or Hohokam Indians who populated this part of Arizona several centuries ago. Later, Pimas and "Apaches" (some of whom may have been Yavapais) occupied parts of the region. However, the name "Apache" came to be closely associated with the Superstitions, and the mountains became an Apache stronghold in the 1800s.
During the 1840s the Peralta family of northern Mexico supposedly developed rich gold mine(s) in the Superstitions. Their last expedition to carry gold back to Mexico occurred in 1848. According to legend, the large party was ambushed by Apaches, and all were killed except for one or two Peralta family members who escaped into Mexico. This area is known today as the Massacre Grounds.
A number of other people were supposed to have known the mine's location or even to have worked it. Numerous maps have surfaced over the years, only to become lost or misplaced when interested parties pressed for facts. Men who claimed to have found the Peralta mine were unable to return to it or some disaster occurred before they could file a claim, all adding to the lore of a "lost mine."
In the 1870s Jacob Waltz, "the Dutchman" (actually a native of Germany), was said to have located the mine through the aid of a Peralta descendant. Waltz and his partner, Jacob Weiser worked the mine and allegedly hid one or more caches of gold in the Superstitions. Most stories place the gold in the vicinity of Weaver's Needle, a well known landmark. Weiser was killed by Apaches, or according to some, by Waltz himself.
In failing health, Jacob Waltz moved to Phoenix and died some twenty years later in 1891. He supposedly described the mine's location to Julia Thomas, a neighbor who took care of him prior to his death. Neither she nor dozens of other seekers in the years that followed were able to find the "Lost Dutchman's Mine." Subsequent searchers have sometimes met with foul play or even death, contributing to the superstition and legend that surround these mountains.
Many versions of the "Lost Dutchman Mine" story exist, and several books and films have been done on the subject.

Inspiring feedback breathes life into our work!
We would like to share Leila's feedback on how Professor Cecilia Mascolo's talk "Listening to your health: Mobile Health Diagnostics through Audio Signals", organised by ACM-W UK Chapter, helped her decide to pursue studying Computer Science.
A great talk by Prof. Cecilia Mascolo, a Full Professor of Mobile Systems in the Department of Computer Science and Technology, University of Cambridge, on the work being done in developing digital technologies to collect the body's sound signals and run automatic diagnostic analysis on the data, took place on the 17th of July 2020 as part of a speaker series on the subject of "Computing for Social Good" run by ACM-W UK team.
We would like to thank Leila Mebrate and her father Yoseph Mebrate, Head of Technical Support and Innovation, Clinical Engineering, Royal Brompton Hospital, London, for attending ACW-W UK webinars and Social Events and for sharing this inspiring feedback with ACM-W UK team and our followers!
"Listening to Professor Cecilia Moscolo's presentation about mobile health diagnostics through audio signals helped me confirm my A-level choice of computer science. The presentation opened up a new perspective of computer science for me- one involving and aiding the medical world- which highlighted to me the vast range of possible domains in which computer science could be applied.
As I've not yet decided what I would like to study at university, if computer science at all, the presentation reassured me that taking computer science would not limit me but instead give me an opening into many different job areas.
Additionally, the explanation of Professor Cecilia Moscolo's work in the current Covid-19 pandemic helped me better understand the possible application of computer science in medicine in a way I had never considered. Thank you! – Leila Mebrate"
"Many thanks for organising these talks and making them available for a wider audience!"- Yoseph Mebrate.
It looks like the engaged and cooperative work of the ACM-W UK team brings great results and can change somebody's life!
We wish Leila and Yoseph all the best!
I am publishing Professor Cecilia Mascolo's talk "Listening to your health: Mobile Health Diagnostics through Audio Signals" here:

Southeast Asia's Energy and Climate Profiles
Southeast Asia comprises 11 countries, 10 of which form the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). ASEAN is a bloc focused on promoting economic growth and regional stability. With a combined population of about 667 million people, ASEAN represents about 10% of the global population (IMF, 2021). ASEAN has set the goal of obtaining almost a quarter of its energy needs from renewable energy by 2025, aligning the region with international commitments of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (United Nations, 2015a) and the Paris Agreement (United Nations, 2015b). This regional commitment translates the understanding of energy transition beyond its member-states' environmental sustainability to focus on improving quality of life, including access to sustainable fuels.
However, fossil fuels (coal, gas and oil) still account for 66% of the regional energy mix in 2020, mainly from oil use and gas- and coal-fired power generation. In terms of renewables, hydropower still dominates the regional energy landscape at 63% of renewable energy sources, while solar and wind energy contributed only 9% to the ASEAN energy mix in 2029 (ASEAN Center for Energy, 2021). Oil, coal, and hydro are energy systems with negative consequences on climate, ecosystems, biodiversity, and the livelihoods of communities.
This publication briefly describes some key background notes, highlighting the region's energy profile, energy poverty, and climate change vulnerability.

New York's Aisling Irish Center celebrated its 20th year of providing community programs and social services to Irish immigrants in October.
As revealed by executive director and Kerry native Orla Kelleher in an IrishCentral interview, the center saw its beginning in the town of Bainbridge in Chenango County, New York. "From what I've been told, it was set up by a few people in the back room behind a bar to help the most vulnerable of Irish immigrants," she added. "So that's how it got together. Just a few people shouting, trying to figure out a way to help those who needed help."
In 1996, the Aisling Center relocated to McLean Avenue in Yonkers, where it still stands today. "One third of our funding comes from the Irish government, the Irish Abroad Unit, the immigrant program," said Kelleher. "There is also great support, not just from the local community, but from the Irish American business community."
Since the center's opening, it has expanded its reach to aid those of all nationalities, running weekly lunches for seniors, counseling services funded by the Irish government, classes in Irish culture, language, and dance, computer courses, and Spanish conversation lessons.
"It's like an extra gene or cell in us," Kelleher says of the Irish compulsion to give back. "It's a great thing about the Irish community here that they are always willing to help somebody else out, and not just Irish people exclusively." ♦

News about Aamir Khan signing 'Mogul' after Akshay Kumar couldn't accommodate the film has so far not been confirmed. However, news has it that he has finally signed on the dotted line but he had a condition when doing so.
The film would see Khan in the shoes of the life of Gulshan Kumar. However, it appears the actor doesn't want the representation to include Nadeem Saifi in a bad light. A source told Deccan Chronicle, "Nadeem was accused by the Mumbai police of killing Gulshan Kumar in 1997 with the aid of the underworld. Nadeem has fled the country and since settled in London. Three of Aamir's films — Dil Hai Ke Maanta Nahin, Hum Hain Raahi Pyaar Ke and Raja Hindustani — have had music by Nadeem-Shravan."
The source added, "Aamir wants the human side of Gulshan Kumar to come out in the film rather than it being a chronology of the events in the life of the music company owner and film producer".
Hopefully an official cast change announcement will be coming soon.
