As part of this year's Stena Line Belfast Giants Healthy Lifestyle Programme, Belfast Giants player Blair Riley accompanied by Giants Schools' Co-ordinator Gordon Cameron visited Prep on Tuesday 3rd January to speak to Prep 5, 6 and 7 pupils about Healthy Lifestyle choices and the importance of exercise in conjunction with a balanced diet.
A great afternoon was had by all. The children listened extremely well to the information they were given about how to eat properly and the need to avoid foods which are not healthy. There were also really excited to see a Belfast Giant demonstrating a simple circuit which they could use in their P.E. lessons.
The Giants wish to sincerely thank Subway for all their support in this important work.
Further information on the Healthy Lifestyle Programme can be obtained by contacting the Belfast Giants Office on 028 9046 0044 or via Gordon Cameron on 077 5233 3811.

Blues to wear vintage jerseys in select home gamesby Chris Pinkert / St. Louis Blues
ST. LOUIS - If you liked the vintage look the St. Louis Blues had for the 2017 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic at Busch Stadium, then you're going to love this news.

Fed Proposed Changes to Truth In Lending to Curb Rescission–really?
I do a lot of defense work, and readers of this blog know that I work primarily for private lenders (not institutional lenders). This means I defend against a lot of TILA rescission claims.

Couple Finds Love After Man Calls Woman Out for Yawning at a Bar
For years, Meg Harris, 28, of Weehawken, NJ, tried every dating app out there, from "Singles Meet Cheese" to "Date This App" to "Uber". They all proved utterly fruitless. On the eve of her 26th birthday, she solemnly vowed to stop using Internet dating and to start putting herself out there or to, as her wrist tattoo read, Lean In.
"I am officially done with Internet dating. I'm ready to go to a bar and connect with someone who is blacked out and wearing a checkered button down," she promised herself and her mother.
A mere three weeks and four pounds of Pop Chips later, she found herself with a group of friends at the Manhattan cocktail bar Brother Jimmy's BBQ in Murray Hill. She also found herself in luck. This was the night she met Doug Reed, 30, of "My Parents' Place". It was no coincidence that the two met, as Doug goes to this bar every Wednesday-Sunday. They locked eyes by the "Put Some South in Your Mouth" welcome sign (Meg would later come to find out that this is how Doug signs all of his e-mails). Have I already met this guy 50 times tonight? Meg remembers thinking. Thought Doug, through a haze of Bud Light Lime Straw-Ber-Ritas: Hoagies.
Doug initiated the conversation by asking Meg where she lived. Meg then asked Doug where he lived. Then Doug asked Meg where she lived. At this point, Meg thought she would go use the bathroom to drown herself in the toilet. She excused herself and yawned.
Little did Meg know that this was the momentous yawn that would forever change the course of her life.
"Hey, no yawning yet, it's the weekend and this is a bar," said Doug. And just like that, with those 12 magical words, Meg was smitten. She was so taken aback by his originality and assertiveness that she had to take him right then and there on the beer soaked floor. Meg said that something in her soul shifted when Doug adorably called her out for being tired at the end of a workweek, at a packed bar, in the middle of a conversation she could have carried as a toddler. She fell instantly and madly in love.
The rest is history: conversation stalled, they got another drink and they repeated this for the next two years. They are engaged to be married this coming October ("Like Oktoberfest, like beer" –Doug) and are registered at Bass Pro Shops. Their engagement was announced yesterday on Facebook and thus far, has received 16 likes and been reported twice.

Generation next for ERP
Demand for mobility, analytics and social, along with the rise of the cloud, is contributing to the emergence of a new breed of 'next-gen' ERP platforms
The ERP suite, originally a functional tool for entering and recording data, is changing, with increased emphasis on mobility, analytics and social. Alongside this need to enable collaboration, interpretation and changing approaches to work is the drive, both from the vendor community and, increasingly, the end user side, to deploy solutions in the cloud.
Monzer Tohme, country manager, Middle East at Infor, whose organisation develops ERP suites for verticals, is clear how he sees next-gen applications being deployed. "The next-gen ERP is a cloud offering that provides industry specific functionalities, a beautiful user experience and adopts an open architecture," he says.
"At Infor, our focus is on micro verticals, adopting and embracing an open architecture, and improving the user experience. All these key pillars are cornerstones in transitioning the typical on-premise business applications to cloud or next-gen business applications."
Frank Forndron, head of quality management, SAP MENA and EMEA emerging markets, emphasises the role of analytics. "With next-gen ERP, business users can now get any insight on any data from anywhere in real-time: planning, execution, prediction, and simulation – all decisions that can be made on the fly with the highest level of granularity for faster business impact," he says.
Prabu Balasubramanyan, executive director at TransSys Solutions, a Dubai-based Oracle Platinum Partner, also sees next-gen ERP as being in the cloud and supporting mobility, analytics and social. "It is usually cloud-based, fully mobile and social," he says.
"It offers organisations swift business value, agility, cost-savings, flexibility, improved productivity and much greater efficiency and responsiveness to the external needs of the organisation."
"Since the next-gen ERP is usually cloud-based, it is scalable and can be extended to other countries, connecting the organisation's operations, customers and suppliers across the globe. Since the ERP is mobile, decision makers have better access to real-time data, which helps them in making quicker decisions."
Ali Hyder, Group CEO of Focus Softnet, believes there has been tremendous evolution in ERP, from the days of simple data collection to today's world of sophisticated data analysis. "Earlier the sole purpose of the ERP was to capture and remember data," he says.
"Since then, the ERPs have learned how to remember more and more volumes of data, recall them faster, sort and organise data, present data in formats as required, analyse data intelligently, take decisions based on analysed data, and now allow users to execute their tasks through it by virtue of workflows and authorisation modules. ERPs have undoubtedly come a long way."

Courtney's headed back to City Hall at 11:30 this morning, where, yet again, the City Smoking Ordinance Special Ad-Hoc Committee will spark up the debate over where you can't and can't light up in this town. For a sneak peek of where this discussion's headed today, the council has posted to the city's Web site a look at how other cities around the country handle their particular smoking bans (including in theatrical productions ... and is that even part of Dallas's proposed ban?). Perhaps we'd be wise to follow Boston's sidewalk restrictions as well: "Not allowed [on] wharfs, waterfronts, docks." Courtney will update from Marilla accordingly. --Robert Wilonsky

Europe River Cruising with APT
Europe River Cruising with APT
I was lucky enough to fly Emirates business class on the way to Europe, economy on the way home. Even though Emirates economy class is very comfortable and spacious, the lie flat business class is fantastic even just for the longer sector to get proper rest.
Our River cruise from Nuremberg to Amsterdam was on APT's AmaReina from Amawaterways. The ship is gorgeous, only 2 years old with lush carpeting, beautifully appointed public areas. Very comfortable overall. I had a Twin Balcony Suite. These are located roughly mid ship on the third deck. They are in a great location with a balcony, which is wonderful to sit back and watch the spectacular scenery go by.
You should definitely take advantage of the day trips from the ship. The guides are very knowledgeable, plus you have some free time afterwards to explore so you can make the most of the time in each destination. I absolutely loved the fragrance museum in Cologne. It was different to all the churches and castles you see prior to that.
My favourite places along the river were Bamburg and Amsterdam. Bamburg because it was so darn cute with lots of little boutique shops – no big department stores, it also has gorgeous architecture and lots of beer (Bavaria and all). Amsterdam is a favourite because it's so diverse and everyone is so open and embracing of things.
I would definitely add at least 1-2 nights pre and post a Europe River Cruise for flight recovery and because there is just so much to see!
Also be aware you will put on weight on the trip because of all the delicious food! A stand out for me was the awesome bratwurst with sauerkraut in Nuremberg – spicy and delicious with a local beer.

Amazon eBook ** Amazon Paperback
Okay first off all i loved this book. This was exactly what I wanted in this book. 🙂 There was suspense, healing, love and redemption. Although this book dealt with a violent and one horrific subject matter, Katie Ashley handled it with great care which made this book feel more real.Now these two characters had me feeling all the horrors and sadness as well as their laughter and love. now this book was so much more darker and grittier than Vicious Cycle but it fit these characters.
Now this book is about a privileged women that came from money that got herself kidnapped by a group of bikers that worked for one of the most dangerous people in the world…. the drug cartel. She soon became the second in commands favorite so she was his sex slave but none of them treated her right, they raped and beat her until she was close to death. Now how did Rev find her? Rev was going that way to rescue one of the bikers daughters who also got kidnapped by these people. Rev found Annabel in one of the room so close to death. He got her out and protected her. She did not want to seem fragile but she only trusted Rev maybe in the beginning because he saved her but later on you would see that he became to mean more to her. She started to heal herself but had the help of Rev. He did not figure out what she meant to him in the beginning and he nearly lost her because of his stupid fears. Little Willow set him straight, that girl is one smart one. I can tell you I still love Willow and wow she is smarter than you think she is.
This book is about survival, coping, opening up, trust, hope, and healing. It is told in both points of view allowing us full access to their complex feelings and fears. It is traumatic, emotional, heart breaking, suspenseful, humorous, sweet, and heartfelt with a rough edge due to the MC club and cartel involvement. I really do love reading everything that has strong Alpha men in an MC. You figure out soon enough that Annabel is stronger than you think and I like reading about all the strong yet girly women. I loved seeing all the other characters again especially Willow.
I love the tight nit family of an MC they are all just so close and would do everything to protect the people they love… I am looking forward to Bishop's book Last Mile and more with all of these characters.
Katie Ashley is a New York Times, USA Today, and Amazon Best-Selling author. She lives outside of Atlanta, Georgia with her two very spoiled dogs. She has a slight obsession with Pinterest, The Golden Girls, Harry Potter, Shakespeare, Supernatural, Designing Women, and Scooby-Doo.

You're Fired
Knock knock, it's vent sesh round two here! Dun dun dun.
I felt that after last week's loyalty dialogue, it made sense to follow up with a post focused on deciding when cutting someone out of your life may be best. Because let's face it, when you're trying to hold everyone around you to an unreasonably high loyalty standard, there's going to be some turnover.
Cutting a friend out of your life is never easy. It's never fun either. But life is too short to be consistently subjected to someone who doesn't positively impact your life. & if there's one thing I've learned in my 20's, it's that people can drastically change in the course of a month or two. So how do you tell when it's time to let a friend go? I've narrowed it down to three actions that I think are red flags. So pour yourself a glass of wine and see what you think:
1. Does your friend talk bad about their "best friend" ?
Run run run run run run RUNNNN. Run to the mountains and never look back! This is red flag number one and, in my opinion, the most prominent characteristic of someone with severe underlying insecurities (they have to put others down to feel somewhat better about themselves). These are the best friend sh*t talkers. & let me tell you something, if someone is going to talk bad about their best friend to you, you can only imagine what they're saying behind your back. I just had an unfortunate experience with this one. I had a friend who consistently kept talking bad about her "best friend" (and everyone else for that matter) saying "poor thing she just isn't that cute". Come to find out this same girl was saying bad things about me too. This wasn't the first time I've encountered the best friend" sh*t talker, so was I surprised? Not in the least. Fake people don't surprise me anymore. Loyal people do. My only regret was not ending that friendship sooner. You're fired.
2. Does your friend complain excessively?
This one is trickier than the first because guess what, we all have bad days. I feel like needing to complain and vent to a friend is in our human nature and necessary at times. However, is it overkill? Are you all out having a blast and this person consistently has something negative to say? Are you simply chilling and watching tv with a group of people and they can't stop complaining? Watch out for it! These are the negativity leeches. They will complain and moan to anyone willing to lend an ear. So that's a decision you'll have to make. Do you want to be that person's pessimistic sounding board? Boohoo I'm single. Boohoo I don't have a job. Boohoo I don't have any money. WAKEUP CALL. Stop complaining, get off your ass and DO something about it! I have no sympathy for people with little to no initiative to change their situation. You're fired.
3. Does your friend do sketchy things?
This red flag is hard to identify because you generally have to do a little digging to find out if your friend is doing something sketchy. Now something sketchy is very vague lol, I know I know. I guess you can attribute the following to being sketchy: lying & downright nasty not niceness. Pretty much anything that you could classify as "hmmm that's a really weird thing you did/said and I question your intentions as a friend." I frankly don't get the friend that starts being sketchy and lying; the sketch ball if you will. Transparency is huge in any friendship. Because guess what, if someone is your friend and you tell them the truth, no matter how ugly, they'll most likely support you. Why? Because they're your friend.
I've had friends who seemed to always lie about past boyfriends and guys they were seeing. "We broke up because his parents didn't like that we got a puppy." Ummmmm…(crickets)…what? Because of a puppy? That's one I had never heard. Kudos for creativity. "He got me a pink Harley motorcycle"... I'm not even going to acknowledge that one with a response lol. "He wrote me this strange text ending things after I saw him at the bar last night and I didn't even do anything." Hmmm…really? You did…nothing? Zip, zilch, nada? And he wants to end it? Well let's see…does any of that make sense? I'll answer that. NOPE. Little to my surprise, those stories proved to be false. Be honest with your friends! If you went crazy on a guy in a bar, who the hell cares (besides the guy of course). If your friend is actually your friend, she'll probably tell you to chill but still laugh about the situation with you. So if you start lying, please let me show you to the door. You're fired.
So is cutting a friend out or walking away from someone ever the right decision? Are the factors listed above telltale signs of a friend who really isn't a friend?
That will have to be your call.

CARRA was established at a critical time for pediatric rheumatology, which was clearly endangered as a specialty: In the late 1990s, fewer than six fellows graduated from pediatric rheumatology fellowships each year in the entire U.S., and almost half of U.S. medical schools did not have a pediatric rheumatologist on their faculty.1

To foster academic career development, increase the workforce and facilitate widespread collaborative participation in research, all pediatric rheumatologists, regardless of their scientific or academic accomplishments, were invited to participate in the inaugural CARRA Annual Meeting in 2002. Engagement of early career investigators was emphasized as another crucial component for the future of academic pediatric rheumatology.
The Arthritis Foundation provided initial small infrastructure grants to CARRA that helped launch CARRA activities. Over the years, these grants have grown considerably, enabling the nascent network to extend its scope of activities and thrive. Support for the annual meeting, including participant travel costs, was made possible through meeting grants from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and The Wasie Foundation, as well as corporate sponsors. Most of the funding for specific research studies and clinical trials came from NIAMS, the Arthritis Foundation, Lupus Foundation of America (LFA), Cure Juvenile Myositis (CureJM), the ACR and Friends of CARRA, with the Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI) functioning as the data coordinating center for the CARRA Registry and other clinical trials.
The Growth Years: 2006–2012
Over the years, CARRA has grown to include more than 110 sites in the U.S. and Canada, and greater than 400 members (see Figure 1). In excess of 60 funded projects totaling over $60 million, including three major NIAMS-funded multicenter clinical trials, have been awarded to CARRA investigators since 2006 (see Figure 2).
The three NIH-funded clinical trials that have been successfully completed are: 1) the first multicenter randomized controlled trial in pediatric lupus—the Atherosclerosis Prevention in Pediatric Lupus Erythematosus (N01-AR-2-2265, APPLE) trial, which tested the efficacy of atorvastatin in preventing premature carotid intimal medial thickening in children with SLE;2 2) the Trial of Early Aggressive Therapy in polyarticular JIA (R01-AR049762, TREAT-JIA), a randomized controlled trial comparing treatment with methotrexate vs. methotrexate/steroids/etanercept;3 and 3) the Randomized Placebo Phase Trial of Rilonacept in systemic JIA (N01 AR 700015, RAPPORT).4

Perception vs. Reality of Wealth Distribution In the U.S.A.
The poor, as well as significant portions of the middle class have been deceived into thinking that a "million dollars" is a lot of money and that whose who have that much constitute societies "upper crust." As you have probably already figured out, this is class warfare instigated by the super elite who want to focus society's attention in the middle of the economic ladder.
You are about to see what "equality" codeword really means to those who occupy the halls of power. Every American interested in the political and economic wellbeing of their country should should be made aware of the false belief systems being installed on the masses by media/government disinformation. This short video clearly shows the contrast between the prevailing perceptions of wealth distribution in America and the stark reality.

Colin's Wise Wednesday - 20th November 2018

Here I am sitting in bed, at Wyndford Farm, (away again???) about to start my quiet time.
As I close my eyes and ask God for His presence I am prompted to recall what I have heard since the first rays of sunlight this morning a sign that God is already present . Creation awakes to the sound of the Redchested Cuckoo. Have you heard his call of "Piet-my-vrou, piet my vrou" which is loud and goes on and on and on. I hear the Cape Turtle Dove calling " work-harder, work-harder" …much repeated (is he talking to me being still in bed?) Then the Crested Barbet starts. His call sounds like a car battling to start or a muffled alarm clock…"trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr", which continues sometimes for long periods. Then there is a call that I do not recognise…if only Chad was with us!
What call did you wake to this morning? What does God's call sound like to you? Do you always recognize His call or are you like me seeking His presence not realizing He has been calling all morning hoping I will acknowledge His constant presence.
Lets pray: Please God help me to be aware of your presence every minute of every day and when You call help to be willing to respond in the words of the hymn. "Here I am Lord, it is I Lord I have heard You calling through the night". In Jesus name we pray. Amen
Take care and have a God time until we meet again next Wednesday.

|Image credit: Andrew Buszchak, Detail from "Hope, Air, Words, Wind" 2009
VUE WEEKLY: What were you doing before you came to Edmonton?
ANDREW BUSZCHAK: I was in Halifax attending the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, and before that, in London, Ontario attending Fanshawe College. In London, I was new to studying art and being interested in contemporary art. I guess I was more enthusiastic about going out and seeing any types of shows, whether I knew the artist or not or whether I'd be interested in the type of work. And at NSCAD, my background is technically in printmaking, but I see my degree as interdisciplinary. I don't want to be stuck in any one medium. If I get an idea of how to make something, I don't want to be stuck if it makes sense to use one material over another. I also don't have a studio space, so being versatile is also about working within limitations.
VW: Let's talk about the work. How did you choose the stock images and blog text to make these three large and distinct digitally manipulated mosaics?
AB: The source of the text is any kind of blog on the Internet, selected more or less randomly, and one criteria I was looking for was that it was not written by a corporation, so that it's somebody making use of the Internet, some individual, to express their opinion. Using hundreds of blogs, the choice of colour is a result of the process, an interest in standarization, in the paper size of 8x11, standards and defaults on the programs, like Adobe Illustrator. I just used whatever font and size were set as default, because I was interested in what comes standard.
And the photographs aren't stock images necessarily. They come from a range of Internet sources. For example, "Hope, Air, Words, Wind" is a professional photograph of David Cook, one of the past winner's of American Idol, and the other two images are from amateur photographers. I don't know their names or anything about them, but they are distinct because I don't have any intention to make any story or narrative between the three of them. They can be looked at in any order, and there's no order they should be seen in, but they may be representations of something allegorical.
VW: Can you explain?
AB: I'm reading a bit by Craig Owens, and he wrote a lot about appropriated images and how allegory comes back into postmodern art, but I liked what he said because these images don't read straight across and my use of the images has taken some of their original meaning out and put in new meaning by using random text to make up the images. I guess what I'm saying is that I want to raise an awareness of people using the Internet to express their voices and concerns and opinions and how that all sort of mingles with what's up on the walls.
VW: You've mentioned the idea of "repeatability." What is that to you?
AB: Our society in general is occupied with mass production. The way people live their lives [focused] on how or what to consume. I'm always looking for something ubiquitous and from there I think something interesting can grow.

Buying a thoughtful geek gift for a friend can be tough—these 15 ideas will help.
For the most part, gifts for geeks sort of suck. No, I don't need another pair of Star Trek socks.
This gift guide is for the more refined shopper, someone hoping to get something for a friend of family member that will elicit a bona fide "wow" rather than another trinket tucked away in the closet. So let's dig in.
For someone who's always wanted their own Defender of the Universe
Lego Ideas is a hub of creative ideas from Lego lovers who want to see some of their dream sets come to life. Not all ideas get the go ahead, but we were lucky enough this year to be blessed with Lego's 2321-piece Voltron set. Not only can you create Voltron, but you can also create the five lions and it comes with a huge sword as a bonus.
For Star Wars fans willing to dig a little deeper
One of our favorite things about Rian Johnson's The Last Jedi is that it feels inspired by other films rather than just trying to mimic Star Wars itself. Along with other movies like Bridge on the River Kwai and Three Outlaw Samurai, Johnson says the 1960 film Letter Never Sent helped the film feel grounded, like the audience was really in the moment with the characters. In fact, Johnson was so inspired by the Soviet adventure drama set in Siberia that he required the cast and crew to watch it before shooting The Last Jedi.
For the Jurassic Park addict who thinks they could run a better dino park
So Dr. Hammond wasn't great at running a dino park, but maybe you can do better when you play Dinosaur Island. One of our favorite board games of 2018, Dinosaur Island puts you and three friends in control of your own dino-packed theme park. If you ever wanted to live your own Jurassic Park, now's the time.
For the Muad'dib disciple who can't wait for Denis Villeneuve's Dune
Frank Herbert's Dune is one of the most important works of science fiction ever written. Its fingerprints can be seen all over science fiction, and now one of Hollywood's best directors, Denis Villeneuve, is going to take a crack at adapting for the big screen in 2019. So it's more than necessary that the biggest Dune fan in your life also has one of the most spectacular editions of the 1965 classic from Folio Society.
For the Whovian who's very excited for the show's first female Doctor
2018 marked the first year that Doctor Who, a show that's been around since the 60s, finally casted a woman in the lead role. This Barbie, complete with sonic screwdriver, borrows actress Jodie Whittaker's own Gallifreyan style for a Barbie that's more than worth your money.
For the DM with a special love for dice
If a sword needs a sheath then a D&D player's dice need the same protection as well. Wyrmwood makes a variety of different dice vaults that protect and store your favorite set of dice. You can get the most basic vault, like this one made from Red Oak, for only $25. But you can get really fancy an opt for a vault made from Gabon Ebony for $125. And the best part? It's all hand made.
For that Magic fan who won't shut up about that one card
Play Magic: The Gathering long enough, and you're bound to have a favorite card. Whether it's Black Lotus, another Power Nine, or something a bit more modern, you can get a custom crafted wooden replica of any favorite card. It's likely the most unique gift they'll get all year.
For the Star Wars fan who needs a cozy refuge after reading angry Last Jedi comments on YouTube
It was a tough year to be a Star Wars fan. Actors bullied off Instagram, endless apocalyptic prophesies surrounding the Star Wars end times, and vitriolic comments denigrating everything The Last Jedi. If you have a friend or loved one who actually liked the movie (like we did), they likely need some comfort right now. This blanket should do the trick.
For the Trek fan who wants to know the literary sea captain behind James T. Kirk
In Gene Roddenberry's original pitch for Star Trek, he described its main hero as a "space-age captain Horatio Hornblower." The comparison would stick as facets of Hornblower would go on to exemplify captains in almost every Star Trek series. Written by C.S. Forester as a composite of British national heroes Horatio Nelson and Lord Cochrane, this series of books (nine in total) gives a great glimpse into Star Trek's origin story.
For the gamer with an insatiable love of everything retro
It's a golden age for the retro gamer. This year Sony announced the PlayStation classic, following Nintendo's formula for classic consoles by downsizing the original PlayStation and packing it full of classic games, including Final Fantasy VII, Crash Bandicoot, and Resident Evil. If Nintendo is more your speed, you can finally snatch up a NES or SNES Classic as well.
For the ultimate Kubrick fan in your life
For every amazing work of science fiction, there's an equally amazing artist behind it. For Star Wars, it was Ralph McQuarrie's artistic vision that brought a galaxy far, far away to life. And for Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, it's Harry Lange. This beautiful artbook explores Lange's process as he ventured to help create the greatest sci-fi film of all time.
For the audiophile in a galaxy far, far away
Aside from George Lucas, no one deserves as much credit for creating Star Wars as John Williams. Instantly memorable and unforgivingly epic, Williams' score adds so much to the film that watching A New Hope on mute should be a crime against humanity. This 40th anniversary edition of Williams' score is the ultimate collector's item for any Star Wars fan. The record also displays a hologram Death Star when playing—just to sweeten the deal.
For the sci-fi geek with an art history degree
To put it simply, Chris Foss is the artist who created the look of sci-fi. His work graces the covers of some of the genre's greatest novelists, including Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, and Philip K. Dick. Foss also did concept art for Alejandro Jodorowsky's Dune, which sadly was never made, but Jodorowsky would go on to say that Foss "was a true angel, a being as real and as unreal as his spaceships." This print is concept art from the never-made Dune, but Foss' website offers many more options.
For the comic reader ready to go digital
Why give the gift of one comic when you can give 20,000? Marvel Unlimited is a subscription service that provides access to almost every Marvel title you can think of—past and present. So if you're hunting for a gift for someone new to comics or looking to reread some older issues, Unlimited is definitely the way to go. The app is also only 6 months behind new comics, so you want be too out of the loop.
At either $70-$100 a year—depending on your friend's comic devotion—a person can more than make up the cost by just reading a couple dozen comics throughout the year. The service launched back in 2007, and while the app has had some significant growing pains throughout the years, it's now pretty reliable and well-designed.
Simply put, it's the best and most cost-effective thing you could give your comic-loving friend.
For the friend who lives and dies by the d20
Whether a Dungeon Master or humble PC, every hero or heroine needs representation in the most spectacular fashion possible. That's why a gift card to Hero Forge would make any dedicated Dungeons & Dragons player love you for life. With varying prices depending on what material you want to spring for, your friend can go online and custom make his or her exact character—armor and all.
Just hope that they don't get struck by a Beholder's Disintegration Ray the next time they play.


text: Solution informationOverviewChanges Existing video headends undergo changes. Use of smartphones and tablet computers besides traditional televisions to consume video content creates opportunities for operators eager to serve their customers on their terms. While rich selection of consumer devices is a challenge, also the ongoing shift from analog to digital and from digital to IP is a crucial aspect, especially when network architectures change and distributed access arrives. Legacy In spite of the changes, many traditional functions are still needed. Operators gather content through various receivers supporting satellite, terrestrial, IP and a bunch of other transmission formats. Although new consumer devices enter markets, most operators need to support legacy set-top-boxes and their users. A shift to all IP does not mean sudden death of linear television; a carrier grade broadcasting must work in parallel with the IP-based multiscreen movement, 4K has to co-exist with standard definition, offline movies should complement real-time binge watching. Partner While video headends must still be modular, scalable and robust; your video headend provider should become flexible. A partner supporting the ongoing shift. Arrival of distributed access insists video headend suppliers to understand what video delivery over distributed access requires and what the CCAP cores are capable of managing. An extent of conditional access system vendors requires video headends capable of supporting tens of CA systems. Continuity Video headend products must be supported and evolve, now and in the future, as the life cycle of broadcasting has always been understated. Whilst IP migration takes place, dense edge QAM's are needed too. Though global cloud-based systems enter markets; regional and local channel reception and multiplexing have not disappeared, not to mention PSI/SI processing that has so far been only way to refine consolidated electronic program guide for subscribers.

North American regional qualifiers were the last pit stop for DreamLeague to find their 15th team arriving at the third Major of the season, held in Stockholm, Sweden March 14-24.
Same with the previous two Majors, NA had three slots up for grabs, and much like in a déjà vu experience, the three winners remain the same. Evil Geniuses and J.Storm were first to claim a slot each, with Forward Gaming taking the last ticket. From the three squads who seem to have no big rivalry in their region, it's only Evil Geniuses who posed a threat so far at the LAN finals. At both Kuala Lumpur and Chongqing Majors, EG placed third, having to watch twice in a row the grand finals going between Team Secret and Virtus.pro. J.Storm finished 9-12th at both previous Majors while Forward Gaming have been somewhat going backwards finishing just bottom four at the Major in China after in Malaysia they were on the same 9-12th positions with J.Storm.
DreamLeague Season 11, the Stockholm Major qualifiers only upset happened in the group stages where Jacky "EternaLEnVy" Mao's stack, Flying Penguins opened with a 2-1 over EG, victory which allowed them to finish first in Group B. However, for any EE-sama fan this is hardly an upset. If there is something people expect from any Envy team, that is exciting and at the same time exhausting games. In that aspect, Envy didn't let his fans down. The Flying Penguins series from the past few days were an absolute show and although the team didn't qualify, they surely take all the highlights in NA. With the Major qualifiers now over, Flying Penguins, along with all other teams who didn't make it, still have a chance to redeem themselves via StarLadder ImbaTV Minor. The open regional qualifiers for it will start today, February 7th followed by the closed regionals starting on the 9th.
Fifteen teams qualified so far for DreamLeague Season 11, the Stockholm Major and one more will join them as the champions of the SL ImbaTV Minor Champions.
The Stockholm Major participants:
- PSG.LGD Gaming
- Keen Gaming
- Virtus.pro
- Na'Vi
- Fnatic
- Mineski
- Ninjas in Pyjamas
- Team Secret
- Team Liquid
- Chaos Esports Club
- Infamous
- Evil Geniuses
- J.Storm
- Forward Gaming
- TBD (SL ImbaTV Minor winners)

Community helps 93-year-old veteran throw Memorial Day parade
HEMPSTEAD, Texas (FOX 26) - He's not a big guy, but he's a giant in this town. Pretty much everybody in Hempstead knows Travis Winfree, and they know even at 93 he's hard to stop once he puts his mind to something, and he put his mind to something all right.
"We're all going to fade away and nobody's going to know about those people who made it possible for them to be here," he said.
He's talking about throwing a Memorial Day parade. Yes, he's a veteran. But not just any veteran. In 1944, he was a 19-year-old kid with a hospital unit landing in the first wave on Omaha Beach in Normandy. They called it Bloody Omaha.
"Sounded like all hell broke loose. Everybody was just going crazy not knowing what to do," he said.
His job was to carry the wounded to safety. There was no safety on that beach that day. The memories of that day haunt him still.
"Blood and guts, man. I never talk about it," he said, his voice filled with emotion.
There would be more to come. After D-Day, he fought in the Battle of the Bulge. He did his part, and he wanted to honor those who did even more. He wanted a parade. To make that happen he would need some help, so he knocked on Cheryl Hardwick's door and asked for help. She could not say no.
"I said 'Mr. Travis I'll do whatever you want me to do'. He said 'would you get 100 entries in the parade?' I said 'yes sir I'll do my best," Hardwick said.
The problem is they had three weeks to pull it off. They did it. The parade was a rousing success with 140 entries plus plenty of people left over to line the route to take video. There was a good turnout at the program afterwards, too. Remember, this is tiny Hempstead. So definitely not a bad first effort and hopefully the first of many.
"I hope it will continue, but I don't know." said Winfree.

Adventure Playgrounds, Playful Cities, Capable Kids
Just Play Project Ithaca
Last night, Laura, a few of our summer staff and I, had a chance to hear Lenore Skenazy, Peter Gray, and Rusty Kieler speak in Ithaca NY about creating a playful city. About passing legislation around letting kids play more freely, designing for play, and giving kids back their childhood in today's litigious society. It was inspiring, heart breaking, and energizing. In our ever more divided and stressful world we need spaces for play now more than ever. Learn more about the work in Ithaca and the history of adventure playgrounds below.
Let Grow - A new project collaboration between Lenore Skenazy, Peter Gray, Dan Shuchman, Jon Haidt, and Tracy Tomasso dedicated to challenging the idea that kids today are somehow more physically, emotionally and psychologically fragile than any generation before them. They help the culture see for itself how capable kids can be once we stop overprotecting them.
Just Play Project
Just Play Project - Founded in 2017, The Just Play Project is evolving into a national model of how the support of child-directed play can be a catalyst for community development. They are redesigning Ithaca NY to be a capable kid community.
Imagine a world that was built just for kids. What would it be like? How would it be different from a world built by and for adults?
For starters, we're confident it would be a whole lot more fun.
While adults love rules and guidelines, children love to explore and create. When an adult would say something can't be done, a child would say it's a good idea to at least try. Children, in that regard, are much more resilient than most adults are, especially when it comes to failure.
But it's hard for parents and adults to watch their child fail. It's hard to watch them take risks that make you feel uncomfortable or nervous. This is exactly why, in a world made by adults, children's playgrounds were invented. The equipment placed on the playground has been picked out to strategically manage these risks, to allow children to move but in a way that feels organized and safe. In other words, in a way that makes sense in an adult world.
In 1931 a Danish landscape architect by the name of Sorensen noticed the irony of these playgrounds; although they were built "for" kids, the truth is that it was really only the adults who built them that wanted their children to play there. Children, on the other hand, were much more interested in playing anywhere but these parent-approved spaces.
This thought in mind, Sorenson imagined a different kind of playground, one where "children could create and shape, dream and imagine a reality." Fondly named a "junk playground," Sorenson believed that this type of unruly space would give children living in the city the same experience that children who grew up in rural areas received.
Like this, the Adventure Playground initiative was born.
It took twelve years for Sorenson's idea to take shape, the first adventure playground opening during World War II in Denmark. A groundbreaking idea that was met with great enthusiasm (by the children who played there), the adventure playground drew a lot of attention. Among those drawn to its unique structure was a woman by the name of Lady Allen of Hurtwood. Visiting Denmark from her native England, she was impressed by the concept, dedicating herself to bringing the movement back home to the UK.
It was Lady Allen who helped this movement take hold, decisively renaming the "junk playgrounds" with the much more enticing "adventure playgrounds" as they are known today. The concept of adventure playgrounds spread across Europe, with Switzerland, the Netherlands, France, and Germany being their most active supporters.
Today, there are over 1,000 adventure playgrounds across Europe.
The United States is slowly catching on, with more and more of these unique, children-oriented play spaces popping up around the country. And, as more and more American children find themselves in an entirely urban, adult setting, the timing of it couldn't be better.

When I opened the box for this months wine I was slightly disappointed to see yet another Pinot Noir. It seems we have lots of red wine already in our collections and not enough whites (maybe I'm just drinking them too fast…yikes!) Luckily the second bottle was just what I was hoping for though I have never heard of this type of wine before.
Viognier, until recently had been a dwindling variety of grape for growers in areas outside the 35 acres in France. California, Australia, Canada, Brazil and other parts of the US have recently planted new crops however due to slow growth and light yields a lot of these grapes are not ready yet for commercial production. Viognier grapes are highly susceptible to powdery mildew and must be harvested at their peak maturity making them extremely temperamental and their resulting product quite expensive.
Viognier have complex flavors of fruits like apricots, mango, pineapples, kiwi, guava and tangerines, floral like orange blossoms, violet and honey and spices like anise and mint. It works well with spicy foods as well as chicken or fish topped with fruit salsas.

6 meat-free protein ideas
Over the last couple of years lots of us have been trying to reduce our meat intake. Some of you may still be eating fish and dairy but others of you may be trying to cut out all animal products and follow a vegan diet. The one question I often get asked is 'what can I replace meat with but still ensure I get enough protein in my diet?'
Protein is an important part of our diets. It's the main structural component of cells and provides the essential building blocks to grow and maintain muscle and bone. In the UK we are recommended to consume 0.75g of protein per kg of bodyweight, so if you weigh 70kg (154Ibs/11st) then you should be consuming around 52.5g of protein per day, with athletes consuming slightly more.
Most people associate protein with meat and fish and therefore when they remove both from their diet they often wonder where they get their protein from. Luckily there are lots of protein alternatives that taste great and you can buy easily. Here are my top 6 protein alternatives, including vegan options.
1. Beans and lentils
In places like India and Africa, legumes such as beans and lentils make up a large portion of the diet but in western societies such as the UK we do not eat enough of them. Legumes are not only a great source of protein but they are also incredibly versatile, easy to get hold off and inexpensive.
Proteins are made up of 20 types of amino acids and 9 of these are considered an essential amino acid, as our bodies cannot produce them and they must come from food. Unfortunately legumes are not considered a 'complete' protein as they are deficient in one or more essential amino acids. However, that doesn't mean they are inferior, as we can combine proteins to provide the body with a balance of essential amino acids. These proteins are then referred to as 'complementary proteins'. Popular examples include houmous and wholegrain pitta breads, and brown rice and beans. Complementary proteins don't necessarily need to be eaten together but as the body doesn't store amino acids it's worth trying to eat them throughout the day.
Protein content per 80g cooked serving:
• Chickpeas: 6.2g
• Kidney beans: 6.2g
• Black beans: 7.4g
• Red lentils: 7.1g
2. Nuts and seeds
Nuts and seeds are known for being a good source of heart healthy fats, which are great for those following a vegetarian or vegan diet, but what many don't realise is that they are also a good source of protein. Unfortunately they don't contain all 9 essential amino acids and are therefore not considered a 'complete' protein. However, combining them with legumes provides the body with a complete protein.
They are also a good source of fibre for our digestive health and vitamin E which is good for our skin, as well as lots of other vitamins and minerals.
Protein content of various nuts and seeds per 25g portion:
• Almonds: 5.3g
• Pistachios: 5.2g
• Cashews: 4.6g
• Hazelnuts: 3.7g
• Brazil nuts: 3.6g
• Walnuts: 3.8g
• Pumpkin seeds: 7.6g
• Sunflower seeds: 5.9g
• Linseeds: 5.75g
• Chia seeds 5g
• Sesame seeds: 4.6g
• Poppy seeds: 4.5g
3. Yogurt and cheese
As long as you're not following a vegan diet, dairy such as yogurt and cheese can be a great source of protein. They are considered a high quality or 'complete' protein as they contain all 9 essential amino acids.
Dairy also provides the major source of calcium in the British diet, which is good for our bones. Not only that, yogurt contains prebiotic bacteria which help to keep our digestive system functioning properly and support our immune system. 1 Its useful to bear in mind that Greek yogurt has been strained and therefore contains more protein than regular yogurt.
Protein content of various dairy foods (per portion size indicated):
• Greek yogurt 100g: 9g
• Natural yogurt 100g: 5.1g
• Quark 60g: 8g
• Cottage cheese 60g: 5.7g
• Cheddar 30g: 7.62g
• Parmesan 30g: 9.9g
4. Eggs
Eggs are also a high quality or 'complete' protein and have been shown to be one of the best breakfasts for keeping you full till lunch.2 Both the white and yolk of an egg is rich in nutrients. As well as protein, eggs contain essential fatty acids and a variety of vitamins and minerals. They are an extremely versatile ingredient in cooking and can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Two medium eggs contain roughly 13.2g of protein.
5. Soya
Soya beans are technically a legume but unlike other legumes they contain all 9 essential amino acids and are therefore a high quality or 'complete' protein. They are a good source of fibre, which is great for our digestive health and iron for our oxygen carrying red blood cells, manganese for healthy bones and vitamin K for our cardiovascular health.
Soya beans can be eaten as they are or used to make soya milk, tofu, miso and tempeh. Edamame beans are soya beans that are picked when they are young.
Protein content of various soya products (per portion size indicated):
• Soya beans 80g: 9.9g
• Soya milk 250ml: 8.5g
• Tofu 100g: 12g
6. Vegetables
Veggies are a great source of fibre, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytochemicals. What many people don't realise is that they also contain protein. The protein content of veg is very small compared to meat but it's something worth considering when eating a vegan diet.
Please see the protein content of varies veggies below per 100g:
• Green peas: 5.7g
• Broccoli: 4.4g
• Kale: 3.4g
• Spinach: 2.8g

Please remember that if you're thinking of reducing the amount of animal protein in your diet, it's important to ensure that you are consuming enough protein, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin B12 from other foods.

Gold miner reflects on Ghana achievements
Gold producer Gold Fields has invested significantly into the Ghana mining industry over the past 25 years, with shareholders, government and local communities that have and still are benefiting from the gold miner's commitment to the African country.
Gold Fields has paid around $1-billion in dividends to its shareholders since the start of its surface operations in 1998. Of this amount, government has earned an excess of $100-million in dividend payments through its 10% ownership in shares since 1998, says Gold Fields executive VP and West Africa head Alfred Baku.
In addition, more than $1.2-billion was paid to the Ghana government in corporate taxes and royalties.
Speaking at the company's 25-year anniversary celebration of operations in Ghana in May, Baku pointed out that, even though the company has been around for 25 years, the first three to five years were spent developing the Tarkwa gold mine.
"When Gold Fields South Africa took the decision to invest in Ghana in the early 1990s, the Tarkwa gold mine was the attraction. "Gold Fields took over from gold miner State Gold Mining Company underground operations and assets, and subsequently explored the surface mining potential of the concession."
Baku highlighted that, as part of its corporate social responsibility, the company has in the past years of its operations improved the livelihoods of the people, and continues to lead and drive positive transformations within its host communities, as well as nationally.
"Operationally, we have turned the low grade Tarkwa mine deposit into a flagship mining operation that delivers returns to shareholders, including the government of Ghana, year-on-year."
He pointed out that the Damang gold mine, in south-west Ghana, which was on the verge of collapse, was given "a fresh breath of life" with a $1.4-billion investment approved by the Gold Fields board in 2016.
He said that the Tarkwa and Damang mines create more than 7 000 direct and indirect jobs yearly, and this means that, at a conservative estimate of the multiplier effect, the company positively impacts on the livelihoods of between 70 000 and 100 000 people every year, mostly within the host communities and supply chain.
"Our communities have been direct and major beneficiaries of our social support, and the company has spent about $44-million in these communities."
Baku noted that the money was spent providing access to potable water, supporting local farmers, building health and educational facilities, training youth and extending bursaries and scholarships to disadvantaged pupils and students.
Meanwhile, Gold Fields is currently busy with the upgrade of a 33-km public road that links the Tarkwa and Damang mines at a cost of more than $21-million, which "does not only serve the two mines, but also the several communities along the stretch".
Baku said the road rehabilitation, which includes an asphalt finish with a life span of more than 20 years, is already creating job opportunities for local young people living in the area along the road corridor.
He also announced that the company plans to upgrade the Tarkwa T&A park to a modern stadium, as well as upgrade the Tarkwa Apinto government hospital into a first-class medical facility and a model for quality healthcare delivery in the region and the country.
The company had set up a committee to carry out the necessary feasibility studies and cost estimation for Tarkwa T&A park and Tarkwa Apinto upgrade projects.
Gold Fields, Asanko Gold JV
In March, Gold Fields announced the formation of a 50:50 incorporated joint venture (JV) with Canada-based gold producer Asanko Gold and to acquire a 50% stake in the Asanko gold mine.
The mine comprises a multi-deposit complex, with two main deposits, Nkran and Esaase, and nine known satellite deposits.
The purchase consideration comprised an upfront payment of $165-million on closing of the transaction and a deferred payment of $20-million. The acquisition will be funded from cash and/or by drawing down on Gold Fields' existing debt facilities.
"While we look back to our 25 years of existence in Ghana with a huge sense of pride, we are even more optimistic about the future. "With the ongoing optimisation of our operations, our focus on exploration, and the extension of our footprint in Ghana through our recent JV with Asanko, we see a Gold Fields that is poised for greater things in the years ahead," Baku concluded.

We are proud and excited to debut our latest effort in educating pool owners throughout California on how they can save more water with their pools – an informational PSA featuring some of the CPSA's own members sharing tips on ways to make your pool water smart this summer. Starring Mike Geremia of Geremia Pools and Alexa Dal Pino of Dal Pino Pools, this minute and a half long video goes through many useful tips such as checking your equipment for leaks and making sure you have the proper cover for your pool.
Produced for the Let's Pool Together campaign this PSA represents a great deal of hard work and dedication by the CPSA and its members to spread awareness of how pool owners can help during this ongoing drought. While our efforts to reach out to the greater California community have been wildly successful so far, with partnerships with everyone from local pool builders to state-wide agencies, we know that there is always more that we can do to share our message with the public. This video, as well as the shorter commercials that we will be sending to television stations soon, are the next step in our advocacy campaign and we are very proud of how well they have turned out and excited for the impact that they'll have. We ask that you share the video with as many of your friends, family, and colleagues as possible, and help us to spread our message about the importance of water conservation.

In this TEDx speech on the power of positivity, Samantha Rea breaks down how you can incorporate positive thinking into your daily life.
She begins be acknowledging that there are problems in the world, that it would be impossible to ignore them, and that it is unreasonable to think that simple positivity can solve every problem. Her argument, however, is that positive thinking can be an essential stepping stone to real world action, and lays the groundwork for people to begin to tackle problems.
By keeping a belief that things can and will get better when things seem hopeless, you immediately help yourself to start changing things. When you look for positive things, and choose to have a good day (as described in the video), you begin to focus on the good things in life and not the negatives- which leads to an increased quality of life.

I attended a forum held by the Singapore Exchange last week. The forum was about how local firms can attract investors from Hong Kong and mainland China.
The Hong Kong market is widely considered as a success story in local business circles.
During the forum, I realized that many listed firms there continued to put emphasis on valuation above everything else and they wondered why low valuation failed to draw investors.
I believe they have to improve their investor relationship, and more proactively communicate with investors about their future plans. Investor trust can only be built over time.
Nevertheless, communication does not guarantee better valuations. Nowadays, the stock market has become increasingly divergent. Investors are concerned that a large number of companies might be made redundant by new technologies.
We have already witnessed what Amazon has done to the retail industry.
In that case, when communicating with investors, corporate executives need to tell investors how they can survive the fast-changing technology and thrive in a constantly evolving business environment.
Even companies in traditional businesses should also try to adapt to the new era. I have given the example of a packaging company, which replaced bar code on the packaging with QR code. That has substantially facilitated data collection and tracking. That may not improve its bottom line immediately, but the move would at least bring new opportunities.
Nowadays, investors' approval and funds are much harder to win.
Meanwhile, Singapore-based gaming device maker Razer plans to raise US$600 million from an initial public offering in Hong Kong, with a valuation of US$2 billion. The company has yet to report a profit, but I think it will draw much attention.
