A great woman just died. This meekulu's works are absolutely amazing and her impact is forever rooted deep in the world; she will live forever.
This genius of literature is Toni Morrison. I fell in love with her ideas back in university when I first began reading her works.
Born in February 1931, the distinguished and uniquely talented Toni Morrison died this week on Monday at the age of 88. Née Chloe Anthony (Toni) Wofford in Ohio in the USA, she achieved many fantastic things and most importantly, she gladly left the world her lessons about how to survive, how to sing with your mind and talents, and how to glow.
For those who may not know, Toni Morrison will forever be a highly acclaimed, Nobel Prize winning American novelist, essayist, editor, teacher and professor emeritus at Princeton University. Google her to find out more specifics.
In my mind, like Maya Angelou and Gwendolyn Brooks, Toni Morrison is a literary teacher, no…more than that, a mwalimu. Her wisdom expressed in words cut deeply into a global understanding of struggle and victory, challenge and harmony, dreams and reality, strength and weakness, and vulnerability vs iron clad fortitude.
The palette for her novels, stories, interviews and essays is the lives of black Americans and the history of our struggle from the shores of Africa to the mid-west of the USA and beyond. But, that is not the boundary of her relevance. She touches the sensitive topics of divisions within the black community based on skin tone that echo the "Coloured" and "Black" monikers of the apartheid era in Namibia. Her lessons boil down to a truth about love, friendship, betrayal and the push-and-pull in the lives all people, regardless of race, gender, religion or culture.
Some of what Toni Morrison wrote resounds right here in the Land of the Brave as women continue to be they prey of their insecure murderous partners and spouses. The meaning of her words is alive in eyes and souls of rape survivors, targets of sexual molestation, incest, and gender typecasting (young women must serve guests, clean everything, deal with children, pound grain, cook and be 'available', as if they have no God-given will and dreams of their own.) She writes about things that could make any one of us lose our minds as some of her characters do.
However, Morrison's stories are not only about people being insulted, bullied and damaged but of battling back and thriving, self-forgiveness, pushing the boundaries of what others expect of you and defining yourself even when all others call you something else.
Check out some of these great stories:
The Bluest Eye (1970), Sula (1973), The Song of Solomon (1977), Tar Baby (1981), Beloved (1987- this one rocked my world – see the 1998 movie starring Oprah), Jazz (1992) and Paradise (1997). These are not always cheerful, jolly tales and the main characters usually do not live happily ever after. But, these complex stories can batter the locked doors of your imagination and make them fly open.
"We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives." —Toni Morrison during her Nobel Prize speech in 1993

The tropical climate and the great territorial extension are important factors for the outstanding participation of agriculture in the Brazilian economy. An important contribution comes from the cultivation of corn, which constantly demands new technologies so that the productivity continue to increase. Some potential technological options are the increase of rooting, nutrient absorption efficiency and plant chlorophyll content (Melo et al., 2015). These improvements can be obtained by applying biostimulants based on humic substances isolated from soil organic matter and composted organic waste.
Humic acids, present in the organic matter of organic compounds (Piccolo, 2001), may affect the rooting of various plants of agronomic interest (Baldotto & Baldotto, 2014). Their stimulating effects in the shoot, as increments in nutrient accumulation in leaves and chlorophyll synthesis (Baldotto et al., 2009), are also emphasized. Recent studies reviewed by Nardi et al. (2002), Baldotto & Baldotto (2014) and & Canellas Olivares (2014), showed that humic acids stimulate the activity and promotion of the synthesis of H+ -ATPase enzymes in plasma membrane of plant cells, similarly to the auxinic effect.
Synthetic auxin, also called plant growth regulators (Taiz & Zeiger, 2003), are used on a commercial scale, with concentration-dependent response. Such a response happens similarly to humic acids, indicating the need to establish the optimal concentrations for each source and for each plant species (Baldotto et al., 2011). A potential source, which still needs information about the extraction and use of humic acid, is the bokashi.
The word bokashi, of Japanese origin, means "fermented organic matter". It is also a Japanese painting technique that means "dilute" or "blur", adapted by farmers to the practice of mixing organic matter to forest soil, leaving it to ferment before mixing it into the soil of crops. Some farmers still employ this technique using surface soil of the forest to make the fermentation of organic materials (Siqueira & Siqueira, 2013).
Bokashi is a balanced mixture of organic materials under controlled fermentation process. The bokashi nutrients are available as organic chelates, most often by increasing their availability. The production of bokashi, therefore, requires, in addition to balanced organic matter, the use of compost accelerator yeasts. There are several formulations of bokashi, but usually, it is made from plant waste, such as rice, wheat, barley brans and castor bean, cakes of sunflower, cotton and palm oil, enriched with animal meal (meat, bones and fish flour) and some minerals (natural phosphate, rock powder, limestone) in adequate amounts to not disrupt the lactic fermentation process, which is of the acid type (Siqueira & Siqueira, 2013).
In addition to being a nutrient source, bokashi introduces beneficial microorganisms into the soil, which trigger a process of fermentation in the available biomass, providing favorable conditions for fast multiplication and performance of beneficial microflora existing in the soil. Among these are fungi, bacteria, actinomycetes, mycorrhizal fungi and organic nitrogen fasteners that are part of the complex process, improving the chemical, physical and biological characteristics of the soil, contributing to plant nutrition and health. For these reasons, bokashi has been used by conventional, organic and farmers who want to do the agro-ecological transition (Siqueira & Siqueira, 2013).
Even with the preparation technology and use of bokashi relatively widespread, there are still technological opportunities, including, the isolation of humic acids (Baldotto & Baldotto, 2014) and use of its bioactivity, that is, its action as a plant growth regulator. Additionally, developing technology from the extraction of humic acids helps to increase the income of the bokashi producer. Therefore, we start from the assumption that the quality of bokashi, which puts it among highly accepted preparation processes of organic compounds, both from the point of view of supplying nutrients and beneficial microorganisms, also leads to the production of humic acids containing bioactive substances capable of increasing the plant performance.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the initial performance of corn in response to the application of increasing concentrations of humic acids isolated from bokashi applied via seed.
The experiment was conducted in the campus Florestal of the Universidade Federal de Viçosa, during the second semester of 2014.
The study factor was the application of humic acids isolated from bokashi in AG1051 corn seed, used as indicator plant, by evaluating its initial performance. Corn seeds were treated with concentrations of 0, 10, 20, 40 and 80 mmol L-1 of organic carbon in the form of humic acids isolated from bokashi. The humic acids were isolated and characterized according to the International Humic Substances Society (IHSS, 2015).
The application of the biostimulant was performed in the seeds, which remained submerged in humic acid solution in the concentration corresponding to each treatment, for 16 h before planting. The seeds that were not treated with biostimulants were soaked in distilled water so that similar conditions of water absorption could be given to all treatments.
The experimental unit consisted of 1 dm3 pots, filled with soil from 20 to 40 cm layer of a Typic Dystrophic Red Latosol. The soil received liming and fertilization, determined as recommended by Ribeiro et al. (1999). The corrected and fertilized soils were transferred into plastic pots that received five corn seeds each. After seedling emergence, thinning was carried out, and the experimental unit remained with two plants.
The experiment was conducted in a controlled environment, in a completely randomized design, with five repetitions, totaling 25 experimental units. The pots were monitored throughout the experiment. Daily irrigations kept the water holding capacity between 80 and 100%These values were achieved, on a volumetric basis (moisture equivalent) bymeans of weighing the vessels. Other cultural practices such as weed control, plant protection treatments, lighting, were carried out and standardized in all experimental units.
At the end of the experiment, 45 days after planting, the following variables were evaluated: number of leaves, length of the larger leaf, width of the median part of the larger leaf and stem diameter. Then, the plants were cut at soil level and the fresh matter of the shoot was weighed on a precision scale. The roots of the plants were isolated from the soil, carefully crumbled, and washed for determining their fresh matter. Both shoot and root systems were placed in paper bags and remained in a forced ventilation oven at 60°C until reaching constant weight to determine the shoot and root dry matters. With the results of dry and fresh weight of roots and shoots. The ratio between the dry and fresh matters was calculated.
The results were submitted to analysis of variance through the program Genes and the effects of the treatments were analyzed by regression. The application of the F test, to the unfolding of the factors, was performed at 10, 5 and 1% probability and the regression models to explain the biological behavior were tested when they presented coefficient of determination higher than 0.60, according to Baldotto et al. (2011).
The results of the initial performance of corn plants treated with increasing concentrations of humic acids isolated from bokashi are shown in Table 1.
1 Variables: NL: number of leaves; LL: length of the longest leaf; WL: width of the largest leaf; SD: stem diameter; SFM: shoot fresh matter; RFM: root fresh matter; SDM: shoot dry matter; RDM: root dry matter; TFM = total fresh matter; TDM = total dry matter; FRS = fresh root/shoot ratio; DRS = dry root/shoot ratio
Table 2 provides the regression equations adjusted among the dependent variables, estimates of the performance of corn plants and increasing concentrations of humic acids isolated from bokashi, revealing a curvilinear behavior, with quadratic variations. In the same Table, we can see the coefficient of determination of each regression equation.
1 Variables: NL: number of leaves; LL: length of the longest leaf; WL: width of the largest leaf; SD: stem diameter; SFM: shoot fresh matter; RFM: root fresh matter; SDM: shoot dry matter; RDM: root dry matter; TFM = total fresh matter; TDM = total dry matter; FRS = fresh root/shoot ratio; DRS = dry root/shoot ratio; **, *, º and (P) = significant at 1, 5, 10 and p% probability, respectively.
It is observed that for all variables analyzed, there was an initial increase, following the increase in the concentration of humic acid, followed by stabilization and decreasing increments in the highest concentrations used, characterizing a concentration-dependent behavior (Tables 1 and 2).
The concentration of humic acid of maximum physical efficiency, that is, the one that resulted in higher biomass accumulation of indicator corn plants, was obtained by means of the regression adjusted to the total dry matter production. Through the derivatives from the regression equation, it was observed that the concentration of 45.70 mmol L-1 C in the form of humic acids (CHA) maximized the initial performance of corn, resulting in a dry matter accumulation of 3.37 g/plant. Compared to the control treatment with 2.39 g/plant of total dry matter, in the best concentration of humic acid, there was an increase of 0.98 g/plant (41%).
Replacing the value 45.70 mmol L-1 CHA in the other regression equations of Table 2, the values of other variables were estimated to the condition of maximum physical efficiency, that is shown in Table 3, which also shows the increments in the initial performance of indicator corn plant in this concentration comparatively to the control treatment.
1 Variables: NL: number of leaves; LL: length of the longest leaf; WL: width of the largest leaf; SD: stem diameter; SFM: shoot fresh matter; RFM: root fresh matter; SDM: shoot dry matter; RDM: root dry matter; TFM = total fresh matter; TDM = total dry matter; FRS = fresh root/shoot ratio; DRS = dry root/shoot ratio; Difference 2 (%) = [(highest mean - lowest mean) / lowest mean] x 100
In Table 3, all the variables were positively incremented by the treatment with humic acids. However, the ratio root/shoot, both in fresh and dry matter, decreased with the application of humic acids, that is, the treatments with biostimulant had proportionally less investment in root biomass compared with the control treatment.
It is considered that the decomposition of plant residues in the soil does not destroy, at least fully, their bioactive substances or cannot change them and/or produce new molecules, which would persist and stabilize along with the humic substances. The structural conceptual models of the humic substances (macromolecular, and supramolecular) reviewed by Baldotto & Baldotto (2014) supports the hypothesis and the experimental data provide indications to accept the bioactivity mechanism, because humic substances notably alter plant development as observed in this study.
The cellular and molecular bases of humic acids action result from studies that point out the activity and promotion stimulation of the synthesis of H+-ATPases enzymes in the plasma membrane, similar to the auxinic effect (Façanha et al., 2002). Façanha et al. (2002) showed that humic acids isolated from vermicompost and sewage sludge, promoted root development of corn and coffee seedlings and the activation of H+-ATPase of the plasma membrane. The H+-ATPases are transmembrane enzymes that are able to hydrolyze ATP to generate energy and an electrochemical gradient that is directly involved in two fundamental mechanisms for plant growth:
(i) energizing the secondary system of ion translocation, which is crucial for macro and micronutrients absorption (Sondergaard et al., 2004), a mechanism that can be explained by the action of H+-ATPase in the plasma membrane depolarization and, therefore, in the activation of carriers;
(ii) promoting increase of cell wall plasticity by acidifying the apoplast, which is fundamental for the process of growth and elongation of plant cell (Cosgrove, 1997). This latter mechanism is associated with the acid growth theory, which postulates that an increase in the proton extrusion, mediated by the H+-ATPase of the plasma membrane, induces the action of specific enzymes, which act on the cell wall, increasing its plasticity and, consequently, allow the elongation of the cell (Rayle & Cleland, 1992).
The discussion above converges to several studies that have reported the presence of auxins on the supramolecular structure of the humic acids (Canellas et al, 2002; Trevisan et al., 2010).
The results lead, therefore, to technological opportunities with optimization and operation of the extraction, dilution, dosage and application procedure (Baldotto & Baldotto, 2014) of humic acids of bokashi for tropical agriculture, in convergence with the need for development of new inputs. The recognized high chemical and biological quality of bokashi to be applied to the soil, as well as all its fertility corollary (chemistry, physics and soil biology) (Siqueira & Siqueira, 2013), is added to the potential for complementarity with the biostimulant application. Thus, fertilization via soil enabled nutrient supply and the bioactivity stimulated the growth and development of corn plants.
It can be considered that the cost of both the bokashi and the extraction of humic acid is low, since they can be handmade with recyclable organic waste, including by family agriculture. The extraction procedures are simple and can be adapted to a rural company, without further waste impacts of the production process. As low concentrations are applied, the extraction process, even if operated by commercial companies, will reach the producer with affordable prices, which will not overtax the cost of production. The cost/benefit is low and, for the economic analysis, the cost of application is practically used, in face of which the cost of preparation can be neglected (Baldotto & Baldotto, 2014).
As the root biomass increases, the use efficiency of fertilizers is higher, having all the benefits of chemical, physical and biological improvements of the soil if combined with bokashi applications directly to the soil (Siqueira & Siqueira, 2013). Also, the direct application of bokashi to the soil does not result in biostimulant effect similar to the effect of isolated humic acids, mainly because the isolation solubilizes and provides the bioactive substances optimally. This fact is very important because even in high-productivity agriculture, it is imperative to seek new fertilizers, given the high cost and the finitude of raw materials that come from non-renewable natural resources. Finally, it is inferred that it is strategically appropriate to encourage the use of humic acids, both for agriculture of large areas and productivity and for organic farming, commonly familiar, and that the use of humic acid is suitable for all these modalities, without incompatibility with their production systems, stimulating the nutrient absorption from the restitution with mineral and organic fertilizers, or both, including additional effects of metabolic, conditioner and protective order.
The growth response of indicator corn plants to the treatment of seeds with humic acids isolated from bokashi had mostly positive and quadratic increments.
For the humic acids extracted from bokashi, the concentration 45.70 mmol L-1 of C resulted in maximum dry matter accumulation of indicator corn plants, with an increase 41% higher than the control.

'If I score, that's me retiring!' - Watford keeper Foster denied stunning equaliser against Chelsea
Ben Foster joked he would have retired had he scored and salvaged a dramatic point for Watford in their 2-1 Premier League loss to Chelsea.
The bottom-of-the-table Hornets remain winless after 11 games, with Tammy Abraham and Christian Pulisic scoring in either half for the Blues at Vicarage Road on Saturday.
Gerard Deulofeu's 80th-minute penalty had given Watford hope and they nearly claimed a share of the spoils in stoppage time when Foster came up for a free-kick and headed towards goal.
Yet Kepa Arrizabalaga turned the ball away in the game's final act, leaving Foster rueful but full of admiration for his fellow shot-stopper.
"If I score at the end, that's me retiring," he told BBC Sport. "Fair play to Kepa – that was some save."
Frank Lampard's young side won a fifth successive league game to move up to third in the table, and their margin of victory would have been greater had Foster not made brilliant saves to deny Abraham, Mason Mount and Pulisic.
"They were a very good team," Foster added on Sky Sports. "Fair play to them: they're young, energetic.
"Our manager told us before the game that they are like kids in the playground. If they're in the playground and the gates are open, then they will run free.
"You need to shut the fences, you need to shut the doors. I don't think we did that at times today, which was a bit disappointing."
The result leaves Watford last in the Premier League, five points adrift from safety with the club yet to win a league game this season.
Chelsea meanwhile have risen to third and have now won their past five league games with Lampard particularly pleased with Mateo Kovacic's performance on Saturday.
"Kovacic, his ability to play – him and Jorgi together – and then that ability to drive from midfield, that's not the norm," Lampard said post-match.
"As a midfield player it's your worst nightmare having a player who can play and then drive by you out of nowhere. He was doing that today to great effect. Really pleased with him."

WASHINGTON — President Trump has given Attorney General William P. Barr extraordinary powers to declassify intelligence secrets as part of his review into how the 2016 Trump campaign's ties to Russia were investigated. That means Mr. Barr could make documents or information from the C.I.A. or the F.B.I. public over their intense objections, setting up a possible confrontation between the law enforcement and intelligence communities.
As the president tries to find evidence that he was the target of a political witch hunt, former and current intelligence officials are worried about the exposure of secret sources and sensitive methods. "This was an attempted takedown of the president of the United States," Mr. Trump said on Friday.
Here is what we know about the origins of the investigation.
Why did the F.B.I. investigate?
In July 2016, WikiLeaks released Democratic emails stolen by Russian military intelligence officers and posted thousands of internal Democratic National Committee documents revealing information about the Clinton campaign. That same month, the F.B.I. learned that a Trump campaign adviser, George Papadopoulos, had told an Australian diplomat that he was told that the Russians had stolen Democratic emails before they were made public. F.B.I. agents traveled to London to interview the diplomat and his assistant.
Those interviews, along with information about Russian hacking, were used to open the F.B.I.'s investigation into whether any Trump associate had conspired with the Russian government. On Friday, Mr. Trump said he hoped that Mr. Barr would scrutinize the roles of the Australian and British governments in the opening of the F.B.I.'s Russia investigation. Both countries work closely with the F.B.I. and the C.I.A.
[Code name Crossfire Hurricane: The secret origins of the Trump investigation]
Who was under investigation?
As part of the early Russia inquiry, the F.B.I. investigated four Trump associates: Mr. Papadopoulos; Paul Manafort, the Trump campaign chairman; Michael T. Flynn, the president's first national security adviser; and Carter Page, another campaign foreign policy adviser.
Read the Mueller Report: Searchable Document and Index
The findings from the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, are now available to the public. The redacted report details his two-year investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
The F.B.I. focused on the men because of their Russian contacts. Mr. Flynn and Mr. Papadopoulos later pleaded guilty to lying to the F.B.I. as part of the inquiry. Mr. Manafort was also convicted of tax fraud and other charges brought by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, who took over the investigation in May 2017, and pleaded guilty to conspiracy.
Mr. Mueller's investigators concluded that they did not have enough evidence to make a case that the men conspired with Russia's election interference campaign. Investigators "did not find evidence likely to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that campaign officials such as Paul Manafort, George Papadopoulos and Carter Page acted as agents of the Russian government — or at its direction, control or request — during the relevant time period," they wrote.
What about claims of F.B.I. spying?
Mr. Trump and his allies have focused their attention on the F.B.I.'s use of an informant who met with Mr. Page and Mr. Papadopoulos to better understand the extent of their possible contacts with Russians. The informant, Stefan Halper, an American academic who taught at Cambridge University in Britain, met with the men while they were still Trump campaign advisers. Mr. Page visited Mr. Halper's house in Virginia in August 2016, and Mr. Halper arranged a meeting with Mr. Papadopoulos the next month in London.
The F.B.I. director, Christopher A. Wray, has said he was unaware of any illegal surveillance and has refused to call agents' work "spying."
In October 2016, more than two months after the investigation was opened, F.B.I. agents and federal prosecutors obtained approval from a federal judge to wiretap Mr. Page. Mr. Trump's allies have pointed to the warrant as major evidence that law enforcement officials were abusing their authority.
The wiretap application partly relied on Democratic-funded opposition research compiled into a dossier by Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence officer who was also an F.B.I. informant. Former officials have long maintained that the dossier was not used to open the investigation in July 2016.
Tracking 30 Investigations Related to Trump
Federal, state and congressional authorities are investigating Donald J. Trump's businesses, campaign, inauguration and presidency.
Why do we still care?
Because the story involves an attack on an American election by a foreign adversary, presidential authority, the national security bureaucracy and other levers of power, and because Mr. Trump persists in accusing the government officials who investigated him and his campaign of an illegal witch hunt — or as he said on Friday, the "greatest hoax probably in the history our country."
No longer constrained by the Mueller investigation, Mr. Trump appears determined to find ways to prove his accusations that the American intelligence community acted inappropriately.
Mr. Trump's allies and other skeptics have also suggested that the Russia investigation actually began earlier than F.B.I. officials have said, suggesting that the bureau and foreign partners were plotting to take down Mr. Trump, rather than opening an inquiry based on facts. The Australian diplomat meeting with Mr. Papadopoulos was "paper cover for an investigation of the Trump campaign that was already underway," Andrew C. McCarthy, a former federal prosecutor and contributing editor, wrote in National Review, a conservative magazine.
In his report, Mr. Mueller reaffirmed that the F.B.I. had opened the Russia investigation after receiving the information about Mr. Papadopoulos from the Australian government on July 26, 2016.
What is Mr. Barr doing?
The attorney general has echoed the president's concerns about spying on Mr. Trump's campaign. Mr. Barr recently assigned John H. Durham, the top federal prosecutor in Connecticut, to examine the origins of the Russia investigation in a review that the attorney general is overseeing.
Mr. Barr also wants to know what the C.I.A. and other American intelligence agencies were doing in 2016 and what they knew about Russia's effort to sabotage the election. The C.I.A. director, Gina Haspel, was the agency's station chief in London in 2016 when Australian officials passed Mr. Papadopoulos's information about Russia's email hacking to the United States and when Mr. Halper arranged his meeting with Mr. Papadopoulos. It is not clear what Ms. Haspel knew about the operation, but a person familiar with the events said that the British intelligence service MI-5 was made aware of F.B.I. activities in London.
On Friday, the president said he hoped that Mr. Barr would look at Britain: "We're going to find out what happened and why it happened."

John Starhurst journeyed up the sluggish Rewa in one of Ra Vatu's canoes. This canoe was to carry him for two days, when, the head of navigation reached, it would return. Far in the distance, lifted into the sky, could be seen the great smoky mountains that marked the backbone of the Great Land. All day John Starhurst gazed at them with eager yearning.
Sometimes he prayed silently. At other times he was joined in prayer by Narau, a native teacher, who for seven years had been Lotu, ever since the day he had been saved from the hot oven by Dr. James Ellery Brown at the trifling expense of one hundred sticks of tobacco, two cotton blankets, and a large bottle of painkiller. At the last moment, after twenty hours of solitary supplication and prayer, Narau's ears had heard the call to go forth with John Starhurst on the mission to the mountains.

Puff out your chests with pride, because these 7 Pakistanis have made us real proud
The year 2018 brought with it 'Naya Pakistan', or at least the promise of it, that many Pakistanis had been anxiously waiting for. Now that the year is ending, several changes have taken place; some good, some bad and some plain hilarious. By hilarious I mean things such as the chicken egg business model theory of Kaptaan himself, the 'speed of light' trains he was so impressed by and the buffalo auctions. As this year ends, there is still gas and energy shortage in the country, there is still rampant injustice, the political discourse has become childish and the financial ...Read Full Post
Should Pakistan Post be disbanded, privatised or revived?
Earlier in the year, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government tried to initiate a bid to privatise Pakistan Post, even running an advertisement in the papers. Dr Arif Alvi, simply a member of the opposition back then, criticised the government for this initiative, saying, "We want to know why the government is in a hurry to sell assets worth billions of rupees of the state-run Pakistan Post, which is giving huge revenue to the national exchequer." The former ruling party argued that due to its 97,000 employees, the postal service was bringing in a loss between Rs7-8 billion per annum. However, ...Read Full Post
What makes the Cybercrime bill atrocious is the intent behind it

Am I against laws which may control cybercrime? Of course not. Countries worldwide are trying various techniques in order to counter the ever increasing threat of cybercrime by implementing new laws and devising novel penal codes.

Marantz, a part of Sound United LLC, has announced the NR1200 high-performance stereo receiver.
According to Marantz, the NR1200 offers "superior audio quality and stable power output to loudspeakers" while also providing "greater connectivity for audio and video sources" than most two-channel receivers.
"We have seen a resurgence in demand for a high-performance two-channel receiver that enables people to enjoy a superior entertainment experience versus a traditional sound bar without making the leap to a multichannel AVR," said Emmanuel Millot, Sr. Director Brand Management at Sound United. "The NR1200 delivers Marantz's sonic signature with all of the power and connectivity options consumers and integrators need to get started. Its slim, sophisticated design makes it the perfect bragging piece for any entertaining space."
The new receiver is rated at 75W per channel (8 ohm, 20Hz-20KHz, with 0.08% THD). It uses separate symmetrical left and right power amplifier blocks. The power transformer is wired independently of the amplifier, preamplifier, tuner and front display, in order to improve channel separation and reduce crosstalk.
The unit also features custom-designed power supply capacitors" and a "double differential" DAC design, said to increase dynamic range and improve signal-to-noise ratio.
HDMI Support
As far as connectivity, the NR120 offers 5 HDMI inputs, supporting HDCP 2.3, 4K Ultra HD video at 60Hz, 4:4:4 Pure Color sub-sampling, HLG, HDR10 High Dynamic Range, 21:9 video, 3D and BT.2020 pass-through. Audio Return Channel (ARC) support allows transmission of audio from the TV with a single HDMI cable, simplifying setup.
HDMI inputs automatically rename themselves based on information provided by the source device. HDMI CEC allows control of the NR1200 with a Smart TV remote.
A phono input is included for vinyl playback. There are also L/R main and zone 2 preamp outputs, as well as remote in/out terminals, and dual subwoofer outputs.
HEOS capability works with compatible speakers and electronics, for creating a wireless whole-home entertainment network. Users can play the same song in every room, or select a different song for each connected room. Streaming is supported from Amazon, Spotify, Pandora, Tidal and other services. HEOS supports Spotify Connect for users with free accounts, allowing streaming music directly from the Spotify app.
The NR1200 supports voice control via Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple Siri, when used in conjunction with the appropriate devices. For custom integrators, the NR1200 offers both IP and IR control, a web user interface, and suport for remote room monitoring services OvrC, ihiji Invision and Domotz Pro.
The NR1200 can decode ALAC, FLAC and WAV files up to 24/192 resolution, as well as DSD 2.8MHz and 5.6MHz. Music listening is possible via USB or over network sources. Auto low-latency mode (ALLM) lets Xbox One gamers get better responsiveness, when connected to select TVs that support the protocol.
The front panel offers independent treble, bass and balance knobs. A Setup Assistant offers on-screen directions. Four Smart Select buttons on the included remote can store the preferred setups for sources such as Blu-ray, set-top box or Internet radio station. The Marantz AVR Remote app, available for Android and iOS, provides complete control over all the latest Marantz network AV and Stereo receivers.
The Marantz NR1200 will be available August 15, for US$599 at authorized Marantz dealers.

You are hereHome 🌿 Marijuana Business News 🌿 Canadian pot company Tilray's stock slips after posting a wider-than-expected loss for the second quarter 🌿
Canadian pot company Tilray's stock slips after posting a wider-than-expected loss for the second quarter
Tilray's stock fell after the Canadian cannabis company reported a wider-than-expected loss for the second quarter after the markets closed Tuesday.
Here's what the company reported compared with what Wall Street was expecting, based on a survey of analysts by Refinitiv:
- Adjusted earnings per share: A loss of 32 cents vs. a loss of 25 cents expected
- Revenue: $45.9 million vs. $41.1 million expected
Shares of the Canadian pot company slid by more than 7% in after-hours trading.
On an unadjusted basis, Tilray reported a second-quarter net loss of $35.1 million, or 36 cents per share, wider than its loss during the same quarter last year of $12.8 million, or 17 cents per share.
After excluding for acquisition-related expenses and an inventory accounting charge, Tilray lost 32 cents per share, a steeper loss than the 25 cents per share analysts surveyed by Refinitiv expected.
Sales rose 371% to $45.9 million, beating expectations of $41.1 million. Tilray attributed the increase to its acquisition of hemp food producer Manitoba Harvest, Canada legalizing recreational marijuana last year and growth in international markets, especially in Europe.
Tilray's total kilogram equivalents sold reached 5,588 kilograms, tripling the 1,514 kilograms in the year-ago quarter. Investing in cultivation centers in Canada and Portugal increased Tilray's costs and ate into the company's gross margin.
"The way we look at it is it's early days, and we're continuing to invest to build long-term value for our shareholders," Tilray CEO Brendan Kennedy said on CNBC's "Closing Bell " on Tuesday.
"If we looked at individual countries like Canada, for instance, we could be profitable there within two quarters," he added. "But when we look at one of the larger markets such as Europe, it's still an opportune time to invest."
Tilray will introduce its first CBD products with Authentic Brands in the U.S. in the second half of the year, Kennedy told analysts Tuesday on a conference call. In January, Tilray agreed to supply Authentic Brands Group with CBD to use in products from brands like Nine West, Prince Sports and Juicy Couture.
Tilray will "be ready" to introduce cannabis drinks in Canada at the end of the year when regulations allow, he said. Tilray entered a partnership with Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewer, late last year to study cannabis-based beverages.
Kennedy said regardless of who wins the U.S. presidential election next year, he expects the U.S. to legalize marijuana. The company bought Manitoba Harvest and, more recently, Smith & Sinclair to compete in the rapidly growing U.S. CBD market.
"I think that the tide has really turned and it doesn't really matter who's president in terms of cannabis legalization," he said. "It's really one of the few issues that has bipartisan support in Washington, D.C."

Explaining the NFL's Franchise Tag and Identifying Candidates
The following is a contribution from Anthony Holzman-Escareno. Holzman-Escareno is a second-year MBA student at the University of Oregon's Warsaw Sports Marketing Center and plans to enter the athlete representation field and has interned at multiple sports agencies, such as Athletes First, 360 Sports, LLC and Summit Sports Group. His free time is spent studying the NFL's collective bargaining agreement and NFL contracts. He's focused his business school studies on the branding and marketing of professional athletes and entertainers. His undergraduate degree is in English with a minor in Philosophy. He grew up impoverished and homeless. He dropped out of high school in 9th-Grade, so he could help provide for his family. Growing up, athletes were some of the few positive influences on Anthony, and he realizes that many professional athletes come from similar, humble beginnings. He stood outside of bar windows to watch games and viewed the game as an escape from the struggle. Anthony cares about athletes, especially those from similar backgrounds as his. He understands the dreams they are protecting because he is protecting the same dream. He is looking to improve the lives of athletes before, during and after their careers. This is why he has chosen to pursue a career in athlete representation.
The rose that grows from concrete never fails to reach the sun. Remind yourself. Nobody built like you. You design yourself.
Monday was the first day each NFL team could utilize the Exclusive Franchise Tender, the Nonexclusive Franchise Tender or the Transition Tender on one of its upcoming free agents. This period spans two weeks, from the 22nd day (February 22 in 2016) until the eighth day before the start of the new League Year. These tenders are tool used by teams to restrict the player mobility and allow teams to retain their core players.
Each of the tenders is a one-year contract with compensation based on a player's position or Prior Year Salary. Salary, both the franchise and transition tender, is a combination of Paragraph 5 salary, prorated signing bonus, roster bonuses, reporting bonuses and any other payments for playing professional football in the NFL. The formula ends up being, essentially, a player's cap number minus any incentives. The tenders are separated into eleven different positional groups: quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end, offensive line, interior defensive line, defensive end, linebacker, cornerback, safety and kicker/punter.
Nonexclusive Franchise Tender
Nonexclusive franchise players are free to negotiate and sign offer sheets with any team. The player's original team then holds the right of first refusal—the ability to match any offer the player signs and retain his services. If the team chooses not to match, they are entitled to receive two first-round draft choices. The last time this actually happened was in 2000 when the Dallas Cowboys signed wide receiver Joey Galloway to a six-year, $42-million contract and was forced to compensate the Seattle Seahawks with their next two first round picks.
Compensation for the nonexclusive tender is the greater of a calculation* of the average cap percentage of the five highest PYS for players at the same position or 120% of the player's PYS (Sec. 2 (a)(i)). The 120% increase is very rare, although it is one reason that former Detroit Lions' defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh hit the open market. Due to his large rookie contract, which was signed prior to the rookie compensation pool, his franchise tender figure would have been $26.9 million. Detroit had little choice but to let Suh walk. He eventually signed a six-year, $114-million contract with the Dolphins last offseason.
Exclusive Franchise Tender
Exclusive franchise players are barred from negotiating with teams other than their own. Compensation is the greater of a calculation of the average of the top five largest Salaries at the conclusion of the Restricted Free Agent Signing Period or the Nonexclusive Tender (Sec. 2, (a)(ii)). The Chicago Bears used the Exclusive Franchise Tender on defensive tackle Henry Melton in 2013, Melton tore his ACL during the season.
Transition Tender
The transition tender carries many of the same rules as its franchise cousin. However, there are a few differences in its compensation terms for both players and teams. Rather than an average of the top five Prior Year Salaries, this tender uses the top ten salaries (or 120% of the player's PYS) to calculate compensation (Art. 10, Sec. 11). Players are allowed to negotiate with other teams under the transition tender, and it does not afford the former team any form of compensation. The player's original team only has the right of first refusal to match any agreed upon offer sheet. Tight end Charles Clay received the transition tag from the Dolphins last season. He eventually signed a five-year, $38-million offer sheet with the Bills that Miami choose not to match.
Implications of Signing Tender
When a player signs his tender, it becomes fully guaranteed for skill, cap and injury. Outside of a failure to maintain "excellent physical condition," the player will receive the full amount designated for his position. He is required to attend all mandatory offseason activities and training camp and is subject to daily fines if he decides to hold out after signing. Teams also have the right to trade the player at this point. The long-term risk of injury falls completely on the player under the tag, as one serious injury could hinder a player's ability to ever receive his market value. This is what happened to Melton in 2013.
Withholding his signature gives the player the slightest amount of leverage, as he can hold out of all team activities without the potential of penalty. If not signed, the team can rescind the tender at any time, and the player would immediately become an unrestricted free agent. Any franchise player and his representatives would be salivating to learn that a team decided to remove its offer.
Franchise Tag Deadlines
The parties have until July 15 to come to terms on a long-term extension. After this date, any contract can only be for one season, and it can't be renegotiated until after the team's final regular season game (Art. 10, Sec. 5(k)). Last season, five players were hit with the franchise tag: Justin Houston, Dez Bryant, DeMaryius Thomas, Stephen Gostowski and Jason Pierre-Paul. Four of these players reached long-term extensions before the start of the season. The latter's Fourth-of-July fireworks accident may have prevented a similar outcome between himself and the New York Giants.
The last day a franchised player can sign his tender is the Tuesday following the tenth week of the regular season. If he does not accept the tag by this date, he will not be eligible to play in the NFL until the following league year. This would be extremely detrimental to a player because he would not accrue a season towards free agent and would be eligible to receive the tag again as if it was his first time.
Multiple Franchise Tags
An individual player can be franchised up to three times in his career. A second tag will cost the team 120% of the first one, while a third tag becomes extremely cost-prohibitive for any position outside of quarterback. The third tag is the greatest of the position with the highest tag number (always quarterbacks), 120% of the top-five YPS' at his position or 144% of his own PYS. This rule now applies to a player's career, rather than his stint with a particular team. Previously, a player could be tagged three times by each team he played for, but Saints' quarterback Drew Brees won a grievance to have that rule changed to the current policy.
2016 Franchise Tag Candidates
Von Miller
The Super Bowl champion Broncos know one thing for sure: Miller is the team's best player, and there is no way that he is hitting the open market any time soon, let alone this offseason. He'll be looking to become one of the highest paid defenders in the NFL, and if the Broncos can't meet his needs, he'll see the franchise tender quicker than he gets off the football.
Josh Norman
Carolina's "Batman" has proven to be one of the top cover men in the game today. He contributed four interceptions, three forced fumbles and 18 passes defensed to Carolina's run to the Super Bowl last season. If the team can't secure him to a long-term deal, the franchise tag is inevitable.
Muhammed Wilkerson
Wilkerson finally made his first Pro Bowl in 2015 after being overlooked year after year in the first four seasons of his career. Last season, he posted a career-high 12 sacks. Although the team drafted defensive end Leonard Williams sixth-overall in the 2015 draft, the team would be wise not to let Wilkerson get away. If he does reach the open market, expect a bidding war between multiple teams to drive his price up tremendously.
Alshon Jeffery
When Jeffery was healthy last season, he was a dominant presence and by far Chicago's best receiving threat. With a weak free agent wide receiver market this fall, there's no reason why Jeffery can't garner a top of the market deal at the position. However, there's a good chance the Bears won't let quarterback Jay Cutler's biggest threat have the opportunity to do so.
Eric Berry
Berry's story is so inspiring that it would seem easy to fall into the hoopla. However, make no mistake about it, Berry is one of the league's best at his position and a player the Chiefs need on their defense. Although cornerback Sean Smith will also be a free agent, Berry, the 2015 NFL Comeback Player of the Year, is probably the team's top priority.
Kirk Cousins
It's been reported that contract talks between Washington and Cousins have come to an impasse. Cousins' 70.1 total QBR ranked sixth in the NFL last season, and he led the team to an NFC East division title. Although the quarterback number may be a high for the former Michigan State Spartan, it's fathomable, even likely, that the team uses its tender on the signal caller who is supposed to be the franchise's future.
Cordy Glenn
Glenn is an athletic left tackle, who the Bills need to keep around. It would be rather irresponsible of the team to allow a player of this caliber leave town without using the franchise tag it has at its disposal. Good left tackles are very, very hard to find in the NFL.
Transition Tender Candidates
Trumaine Johnson
Although there have been murmurs this offseason that the now Los Angeles Rams are considering franchising cornerback Trumaine Johnson, Rams' beat writer Jim Thomas believes that the team will use the transition tag on the corner and save about $2 million in the process. Johnson, who had seven interceptions and 17 passes defended last season, will become a free agent this March unless the Rams decide to tender him.
*Calculation (an example chart is in Appendix E of the CBA):
(1) Adding the amounts of five previous years Franchise Tenders for player's at the same position
(2) Dividing this number by the sum of the salary cap for those years
(3) Multiplying the resulting percentage by the salary cap for the upcoming League Year

Here you'll find all the latest news,
events and general information on travelling to Orlando.
What does floating market mean? This word seems a little bit strange but it is extremely similar to Vietnamese people. A floating market is a local market where goods are sold from boats. This type of market has existed hundred years ago and become an indispensable part of local people. You can easily find floating market in most provinces of Mekong River. One of the most popular ones is Cai Rang market which attracts around 300 to 500 travelers per day. From Cai Rang Bridge you can see the market stretches half kilometer downstream Can Tho River and hundreds of boats gather here from dawn till noon. Sitting on the boat, along a bustling road to Mekong Delta, you can observe the local daily life up close as well as the landscape of waterways and lush islands
Time to visit: start around 5 AM and ruin to midday.
Location: Cai Rang District, 6 km away from Can Tho City
Transportation: Once you are in Can Tho City, take a taxi or motorbike to get to Ninh Kieu Wharf then travel by boat about 30 minutes to Cai Rang floating market
Note: To enjoy the most animated atmosphere of Cai Rang market, visitors should stay overnight in Can Tho City and come here at the dawn (about 5 AM). If you are traveling in a big group, you should rent a whole boat as it will be cheaper and you can spend this money for exploring other destination
You can see local people sell various goods from numerous tropical fruits, colorful flowers to delicious food. Most of the boats are full with a lot of agricultural products of Cai Rang Town and others nearby area like vegetables, banana, pineapple, watermelon, grapefruit, dragon fruit, etc. Besides, other services and products like selling gasoline, clothes, cosmetics, spices or mobile card are available here. Breakfast is served on the boat with just a plastic chair, which makes it into a floating restaurant. Savour delicious local dishes in Vietnam South West such as bread, vermicelli and sour crab soup, Quang noodles with the price only 25 to 30,000VND (approx US$1.5). And then enjoy a cup of Vietnamese coffee or fresh coconut water to finish your wonderful breakfast
Although food is sold in small boats the taste of food absolutely can make you speechless. The famous chef Gordon Ramsay once said that the noodle he tried at Cai Rang has the best broth he has ever tasted. The flavor is so amazing that he decided to make it to a challenge for contestants in his popular show "MasterChef US".
To have a perfect trip; don't forget to hire a paddle boat to cruise through the narrow canals and visit households with traditional occupations of home-based coconut candy and noodle factory. People said, "you only live once so travel while you can". Do not hesitate any more, just take a boat and make your own experience trip to see the beauty and busy of Cai Rang market

She grabs the gun and holds it to her own head.
Laughter is a decidedly social signal, not an egocentric expression of emotion. The social context of laughter was established by 72 student volunteers in my classes, who recorded their own laughter, its time of occurrence and social circumstance in small notebooks laugh logs during a one-week period.
Smiling and talking were also recorded to provide contrasts with laughter and with each other. The presence of media television, radio, reading material, etc was noted because it serves as vicarious social stimulation. The sociality of laughter was striking. My logbook keepers laughed about 30 times more when they were around others than when they were alone — laughter almost disappeared among solitary subjects not exposed to media stimulation.
People are much more likely to smile or talk to themselves than they are to laugh when they are alone. Although we probably laugh or smile more when we are happy than sad, these acts are performed primarily in response to face-to-face encounters.
You are least likely to laugh, smile or talk immediately before bedtime and after waking, circumstances with reduced opportunities for social interaction.
These data provide solid grounds for a behavioural prescription: If no friends are physically present, you can dial them up on your phone. Even solitary television viewing may not be as socially impoverished as suggested by its detractors, and has something to offer the recluse: Further clues about the social context of laughter came from the surreptitious observation of 1, instances of conversational laughter by anonymous people in public places.
My colleagues and I noted the gender of the speaker and audience listenerwhether the speaker or the audience laughed, and what was said immediately before laughter occurred. Contrary to expectation, most conversational laughter was not a response to jokes or humorous stories.
Most laughter followed banal remarks such as "Look, it's Andre", "Are you sure? Even our "greatest hits" — the funniest of the 1, pre-laugh comments — were not necessarily howlers: Mutual playfulness, in-group feeling and positive emotional tone — not comedy — mark the social settings of most naturally occurring laughter.
Laughter is more about relationships than humour. This contrasts with the scenario of stand-up comedy in which a non-laughing speaker presents jokes to a laughing audience. Comedy performance proves an inadequate model for everyday conversational laughter. Analyses that focus only on audience behaviour a common approach are obviously limited because they neglect the social nature of the laughing relationship.
The story became more provocative when we identified the gender of participants in laughing relationships.
Migrant joke about working Germans and migrant benefits goes viral – myhyundai.info
Gender determines the proportion of speaker and audience laughter. Whether they are speaker or audience in mixed-sex groupswomen laugh more often than men. Neither males nor females laugh as much with female speakers as they do with male speakers, helping to explain the paucity of female comedians. On average, men are the best laugh getters. These differences are already present by the time joking first appears, around six years of age.
Based on this evidence, it is no surprise that your school clown was probably a male, a worldwide pattern. Women laughing at men are responding to more than their prowess in comedy.
Women are attracted to men who make them laugh ie, "have a good sense of humour"and men like women who laugh in their presence. The next time you are at a party, use laughter as a guide to what people really feel about each other — and you. Laughter is a particularly informative measure of relationships because it is largely unplanned, uncensored and hard to fake.
Men and women mindlessly and predictably act out our species' biological script. A man surrounded by attentive, laughing females is obviously doing something right, and he will comply by continuing to feed his admirers whatever triggers their laughter.
Such good-humoured fellows don't need a big supply of jokes — their charisma carries the day. Laughter is not, however, a win-win signal for males and females; if it is used carelessly, you can laugh your way out of a relationship or a job. The asymmetrical power of laughter and comedy for men and women is noted by comedian Susan Prekelwho bemoans that men in her audience will "find me repulsive, at least as a sexual being". In contrast, "male comics do very well with women". Personal ads provide a direct approach to the value of laughter, because people spell out their virtues and desires in black and white.
Laughter and humour are highly valued in the sexual marketplace. In 3, personal ads published by heterosexual males and females in eight US national newspapers on 28 Aprilmen offered "sense of humour" or "humorous" and women requested it.
Women couldn't care less whether their ideal male partner laughs or not — they want a male who makes them laugh. Women sought humour more than twice as often as they offered it. The behavioural economics of such bids and offers is consistent with the finding that men are attracted to women who laugh in their presence.
Beyond a joke: the truth about why we laugh
Amazingly, we somehow navigate society, laughing at just the right times, while not consciously knowing what we are doing. Consider the placement of laughter in the speech stream. Laughter does not occur randomly. In our sample of 1, laughter episodes, the speaker and the audience seldom interrupted the phrase structure of speech with a ha-ha.
Thus, a speaker may say "You are wearing that? Ha-ha," but rarely "You are wearing… ha-ha… that? Speech is dominant over laughter because it has priority access to the single vocalisation channel, and laughter does not violate the integrity of phrase structure. The relationship between laughter and speech is akin to punctuation in written communication. I call it the punctuation effect.
The orderliness of the punctuation effect is striking because it's involuntary we cannot laugh on command. If punctuation of speech by laughter seems unlikely, consider that breathing and coughing also punctuate speech. Better yet, test the proposition of punctuation by examining the placement of laughter in conversation around you, focusing on the placement of ha-ha laughs.
Humor gets you out of your head and away from your troubles. Let go of defensiveness. Laughter helps you forget resentments, judgments, criticisms, and doubts.
Researchers find the official 50 funniest jokes of all time
Your fear of holding back is pushed aside. Express your true feelings. Deeply felt emotions are allowed to rise to the surface. Use humor to resolve disagreements and tension in your relationship Laughter is an especially powerful tool for managing conflict and reducing tension when emotions are running high.
How to bring more laughter into your life Laughter is your birthright, a natural part of life that is innate and inborn. Infants begin smiling during the first weeks of life and laugh out loud within months of being born. Even if you did not grow up in a household where laughter was a common sound, you can learn to laugh at any stage of life.
Begin by setting aside special times to seek out humor and laughter, as you might with exercising, and build from there. Here are some ways to start: When you look at someone or see something even mildly pleasing, practice smiling.
Instead of looking down at your phone, look up and smile at people you pass in the street, the person serving you a morning coffee, or the co-workers you share an elevator with. Notice the effect on others.How To Make A Girl Laugh And Get Her To Like You
Literally make a list. The simple act of considering the positive aspects of your life will distance you from negative thoughts that block humor and laughter.
When you hear laughter, move toward it. Sometimes humor and laughter are private, a shared joke among a small group, but usually not. More often, people are very happy to share something funny because it gives them an opportunity to laugh again and feed off the humor you find in it.
Their playful point of view and laughter are contagious. Every comedian appreciates an audience. Bring humor into conversations.
It can even make exercise more fun and productive. Plus, hearing others laugh, even for no apparent reason, can often trigger genuine laughter. To add simulated laughter into your own life, search for laugh yoga or laugh therapy groups. Both you and the other person will feel good, it will draw you closer together, and who knows, it may even lead to some spontaneous laughter.
Beyond a joke: the truth about why we laugh | Books | The Guardian
Instead of feeling embarrassed or defensive, embrace your imperfections. They fall into the gray zone of ordinary life—giving you the choice to laugh or not. So choose to laugh whenever you can. How to develop your sense of humor Laugh at yourself. Share your embarrassing moments.
The best way to take yourself less seriously is to talk about times when you took yourself too seriously. Attempt to laugh at situations rather than bemoan them. Look for the humor in a bad situation, and uncover the irony and absurdity of life.
