Saints suffered their heaviest opening day defeat since returning to the Premier League as they conceded three goals in 12 second half minutes to lose 3-0 at Burnley.
After a closely contested first hour of the match Saints fell apart and saw Ashley Barnes score twice before Johann Berg Gudmundsson ensured Saints would return home empty handed.
It was far from the start to the Premier League season that manager Ralph Hasenhuttl was hoping for, especially given they have to face Liverpool at St Mary's next.
Hasenhuttl was dealt a blow before kick-off with captain Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg having to take a place on the bench due to an illness which came on during the trip north.
But the Saints boss stuck with a 5-2-3 formation for his side in the wind and rain at Turf Moor.
Saints created their first chance of the season after just two minutes as Yan Valery whipped in a dangerous right wing cross. Che Adams threw out a leg on the stretch and reached the ball but could only direct it wide.
James Ward-Prowse was the next to have a go with a stinging drive from 20 yards which was beautifully struck but straight at Nick Pope.
Saints had their first taste of VAR on 16 minutes. Ashley Barnes chased the ball down the right and was able to press into the Saints area and square for Chris Wood to turn home after Jack Stephens slipped.
The linesman had flagged indicating that Barnes was offside when the initial ball was played over the top and VAR upheld the call.
Burnley came close on 27 minutes as they worked the ball to Johann Berg Gudmundsson whose shot from outside the box whistled narrowly wide of Angus Gunn's near post.
Moments later VAR stopped play to check for a red card as Adams downed Ben Mee with a challenge which raked down his shin but decided it was no more than just a foul.
The game was looking for a moment of inspiration and Nathan Redmond so nearly provided it two minutes before the break.
He chased down Oriol Romeu's high ball down the left channel, tricked his way into the area and onto his right foot, releasing a curling shot that Pope had to dive to turn over the bar.
Wood had the final sight of goal of the first half but slashed wildly off target.
Saints had the first opening of the second period when they won a free kick right on the edge of the Burnley area.
Ryan Bertrand was the man entrusted to take it and his left footed effort curled just over the bar.
Redmond was the next to have a go but his shot sailed over as Saints pressed on seeking the opener.
But, largely against the run of play, it was Burnley who grabbed the lead on 63 minutes.
Erik Pieters hooked a high and fairly aimless looking ball forward that caught the wind.
Jannik Vestergaard failed to read it correctly and ended up on the deck having missed his header, allowing Barnes in behind.
The Burnley striker brought it down on his thigh before hitting a quick half volleyed finish from 12 yards out that whistled through the legs of Gunn and into the net.
Hasenhuttl quickly responded by bringing on Michael Obafemi for Danny Ings.
It got even worse for Saints as they conceded a second on 70 minutes.
Pieters was again the provider with a cross under no pressure from the left to Barnes, who simply strolled in past the Saints defence and was in acres of space to side foot home a first time volley from close range.
Hasenhuttl went for it with a double substitution as Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Sofiane Boufal replaced Jack Stephens and Adams to allow the change to a 4-2-2-2.
But it did little to stem the flow as Burnley scored again on 75 minutes.
Vestergaard failed to clear with a header before Gudmundsson caught Bertrand dwelling over a clearance, stole the ball, chased into the area and produced a superb left footed curling shot into the far corner.
Barnes nearly completed his hat-trick moments later but Gunn saved at his near post.
The last notable action of the match rather summed up the day for Saints as a well worked late corner gave Boufal a chance to shoot but he fell over allowing Jan Bednarek to try his luck only for the centre half to sky his effort well over the bar.

Have you ever heard the saying, "Expectations ruin relationships?" Those words ring especially true in relationships that are intended to have no strings attached. The important thing to remember in this type of open arrangement is to set clear boundaries from the onset. Casual relationships such as the ones with beautiful Escorts Manila are fun-loving, fanciful, and novel at the beginning. You're into each other, meeting each other's needs, and are both avoiding an emotional commitment in favour of a mutually beneficial arrangement. There are four simple ways to do exactly that.
First, set your expectations and make them known. Strategically lower the time and communication expectations you'd have from a more traditional relationship. When you say no strings attached, mean it and stick to it. Waffling back and forth has the potential to leave you – and your partner – confused and wondering.
Second, have a viable escape plan. In fact, have two escape plans. One for when you feel the client escort relationship has run its course. Another for when you start to suspect that one of you (it might just be you) is beginning to fall for the other in a way you didn't intend.
Third, avoid using the L word. Don't say you love her and don't encourage her to say she loves you. That single word has many different connotations. While you may feel, and acknowledge, feelings of intense attraction, uttering those three little words changes the game for many women. Just don't do it.
Finally, be sure you carefully, guard against manipulation. Don't attempt to manipulate her, and don't allow yourself to be manipulated. Set clear, upfront goals and standards ahead of time. Once set, do not allow that line to be crossed. Insist on clear, open communication – say what you mean and mean what you say.
The best way to manage expectations in a no strings attached escort relationship is to make your needs clear in the beginning and ask for clarity of her needs from your partner. The smartest thing to do, and the best way to maintain no strings, is to have both players lay their cards on the table and deal from the deck of honesty.

Middletown resident reappointed to state Commission on Aging Board
MIDDLETOWN -- Local resident Christianne Kovel has been reappointed to a two-year term on the board of the state Capitol-based Connecticut Commission on Aging.
"It's a great honor to serve on the Commission on Aging," Kovel said by telephone Tuesday. "It's a wonderful opportunity to advocate for older adults in our state."
Julia Evans Starr, executive director of the Commission on Aging, said Kovel's experience and knowledge have contributed significantly to the agency's work on many fronts since her 2010 appointment to the board.
"With the 2013 session of the General Assembly only a few months away, we're so pleased that Christy will continue to help us guide policy makers through the many complex issues affecting Connecticut's older adults," Starr said.
Created in 1993 as an independent agency of the General Assembly, the CoA fills a unique role within state government. It opens dialogue and seeks solutions between the Legislative and Executive branches of state government, local government, the business community, state and local organizations that serve critical needs of older citizens and statewide public/private sector coalitions.
The Commission on Agings's 21-member unpaid volunteer board and three professional staff members lead public/private-sector efforts to advance and improve public- policy on issues including long-term care reform, livable communities, direct-care workforce development, health care, transportation, financial security, housing and employment.
The nation's seventh oldest state, Connecticut's population of residents 65 and older will soar 64 percent by 2030. The state is also home to one million baby boomers--the oldest of whom have already turned 66 --accounting for nearly one-third of its entire population. Connecticut's population of people 85 and over grew by 32 percent from 2000 to 2010.
"Our state and its older-adult population face increasingly challenging times and I appreciate the opportunity to continue helping the commission make real and measurable progress towards its critically important goals," Kovel said.
Kove is currently employed by the Alzheimer's Association, Connecticut Chapter, as senior director of communications
She earned a Master of Arts in Human Development/Gerontology from the University of Saint Joseph in West Hartford and is an alumna of the Leadership Academy program for LeadingAge, an association of nonprofit organizations dedicated to improving the quality of life for older adults. She is a former member of the state's Long-Term Care Advisory Council, created and managed by the state Commission on Aging, and has over 20 years of experience in the long-term care industry.

Determination of Mg by Titration with EDTA INTRODUCTION: Many metal ions react with electron pair donors to form coordination compounds or complex ions. The formation of a particular class of coordination compounds, called chelates, are especially well suited for quantitative methods. A chelate is formed when a metal ion coordinates with two (or more) donor groups of a single ligand. Tertiary amine compounds such as ethylenadiaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) are widely used for the formation of chelates. Complexometric titrations with EDTA have been reported for the analysis of nearly all metal ions. Because EDTA has four acidic protons, the formation of metal-ion/EDTA complexes is dependent upon the pH. For the titration of Mg2+, one must buffer the solution to a pH of 10 so that complex formation will be quantitative. The reaction of Mg2+ with EDTA may be expressed as: Mg2+ + H2Y2- = MgY-2 + 2H+ The structure of EDTA and the magnesium-EDTA complex (without the hydrogen atoms) is shown below:
The endpoint of the titration is determined by the addition of Eriochrome Black T, which forms a colored chelate with Mg2+ and undergoes a color change when the Mg2+ is released to form a chelate with EDTA. While it is possible to achieve relatively good results by titration with EDTA prepared directly from the solid, better results should be obtained when the EDTA is standardized against a solution containing a known amount of metal ion. You will be provided with a standard solution of Zn2+ which you will use to standardize your EDTA solution. Truman State University CHEM 222 Lab Manual
Revised 01/04/08
REAGENTS AND APPARATUS EDTA (Na2H2Y 2H2O) pH 10 buffer (2000 mL has been prepared by dissolving 140.0 g of NH4Cl in 650 mL of deionized water, adding 1136 mL of conc. ammonia and diluting to 2000 mL) Eriochrome Black T (ground 1:10 with NaCl) pHydrion paper Standard Zn solution: (This has been prepared for you.) An accurate mass (~1.3g) of pure zinc has been dissolved in a small volume (~15 mL) of 6M HCl. The dissolve zinc was quantitatively transferred to a 2 L volumetric flask and diluted to the mark. This ~0.01 M (you need to find the exact concentration!!) solution serves to standardize the EDTA solution. Remember that the results from your magnesium determination depend on the accurate preparation of this solution. PROCEDURE PART A -- PREPARATION OF STANDARD 0.01 F Na2H2EDTA SOLUTION 1. Weigh about 3.8 g of the disodium EDTA salt (Na2H2Y 2H2O) (what balance should you use?) into a 1 liter volumetric flask, dissolve and dilute to the mark with deionized water and mix well. PART B – STANDARDIZATION OF THE EDTA SOLUTION 1. Pipet exactly 25 mL of standard Zn solution into each of three Erlenmeyer flasks. Add 20 mL of pH 10 buffer (in the hood), 15 mL of water, stir, and add a few crystals of the Eriochrome Black T indicator. It is critical to add only enough indicator to produce a light wine-red color. 2. Titrate with your EDTA solution until the color changes from wine-red to a clear blue. 3. Use these results to determine the molar concentration of the EDTA solution for use in the titration of your unknown Mg solution. PART C: DETERMINATION OF UNKNOWN MAGNESIUM 1. Your unknown for this experiment is a solution. When you obtain your unknown, you need to quantitatively transfer it to a 100 mL volumetric flask and dilute it to the mark, resulting in the "prepared" unknown solution. You are to report the results of this "prepared" unknown. 2. Transfer exactly 10 mL of the prepared unknown solution into 3 or 4 Erlenmeyer flasks. Add approximately 15 mL of pH 10 buffer in the hood and 20 or 25 mL of distilled, deionized water to each flask. 3. Add a few crystals of Eriochrome Black T indicator -- it is crucial that you only add enough indicator to produce a light, wine-red color. 4. Titrate each solution with your standardized EDTA solution to a clear blue color. 5. Report your results as percent magnesium (% w/v) in your "prepared" unknown sample. Also report the 95% confidence interval. Truman State University CHEM 222 Lab Manual
Revised 01/04/08
Information, Hints and Help for Mg Determination Preparation: •
To prepare the standard EDTA solution used in this experiment, you must first be aware that the structure of the EDTA listed in your text and lab manual is not the compound you will be weighing out to make the solution. The salt you will use is the disodium salt of EDTA. The formula weight can be obtained from the bottle.
Since you are going to standardize the EDTA solution with a standard Zn solution, you need not dry the EDTA.
After making your EDTA solution, if you wish to keep some for an additional lab period, store it in a plastic bottle, not a volumetric flask.
The Zn solution used for standardization may be prepared for you in advance. Consult your class instructor for this information. Be sure to note the actual concentration of the Zn solution, as it will not be exactly 0.01 M.
Technique: •
Eriochrome Black T exists as a wine-red complex when Mg+2 is present in solution at pH = 10. When the EDTA has chelated all the Mg+2 present in solution, the indicator (free and uncomplexed to Mg+2 ) will be robin's egg blue. This color change marks the endpoint. Add only very small quantities of the indicator are needed. Do your best to keep the intensity of the indicator color relatively weak and consistent from sample-to-sample.
It is best to test the indicator color change before trying the titration. Try it either with tap water or a dilute Mg+2 solution. Using a sample with a small amount of Mg+2 and performing a low volume sample titration will help you understand the endpoint changes.
A trick which makes the end point much easier to detect for some is to use methyl red indicator solution in addition to the Eriochrome Black T. This changes the two endpoint colors to orange initially and green at the endpoint. Be careful when doing this step though, as the additions must be done in a way as to keep the intensities of colors roughly the same in all samples.
Calculations: •
The concentration of magnesium that you report is that of the unknown you received after it was diluted to 100 mL in the volumetric flask (the "prepared" unknown).

So a year ago we began an experiment in our home and we got rid of the TV. Actually to start with we only put it in the garage but after a month the experiment became permanent. We had lots of good reasons for doing so and seven months in as the World Cup was on I didn't regret it.
But now it's been a whole year and it's a chance to reflect on life without a TV. What have we gained and what, if anything, have we lost?
It's harder to think about what we may have lost because on the whole I think it's been an excellent decision for us. Initially there were evenings where the lack of easy access to entertainment felt like a loss but that was part of the problem and the point.
We're not nearly as involved in the 'cultural conversation' any longer even though that conversation isn't always very cultural. I have no idea who is even on Strictly Come Dancing and I'm oblivious to X-Factor. Frankly I'm OK with that. I don't know who Wagner is, I don't really want to know and I think my life is probably better off from not knowing. I plan on keeping it that way. But we're not involved in that and because for so many people their conversation revolves around what they watch instead of what they've read or done then we're not as connected to that.
On the plus side I've read 50% more books this year than the year before. I doubt that's a co-incidence. I've accomplished more, I've felt like I've wasted time less and I'm not as tired. Partly because with the TV went console games which I initially missed a bit but the benefit to my spiritual life far outstripped not being able to play Call of Duty.
I still think we default too quickly to closing the door and opting for the screen as entertainment, to watching a DVD or film – the other options are all more effort. But you get out what you put in, right?
But I'm delighted to not have adverts in my home and in front of my kids. Our front room is set up to talk to people not watch a screen and there's more space. I feel more in control of what we watch, when we watch and how much we watch – which is odd because I could have switched the TV off but mostly I didn't.
Will we get a TV again one day? Maybe, who knows but what I do know is that right now life is better without and you won't see an advert saying that this Christmas.

The best destination comparison site!
The best destination comparison site!
Both Seville and Munich are fantastic cities, but which is better for your city-break or holiday?
We understand your dilemma. There is a wealth of information about both cities, but little stating which is the better destination and more suited for your trip.
This article will provide our unbiased opinions of Seville and Munich, and hopefully help you to choose the best city to visit.
The article is divided into the following sections, and can be jumped to using the underlined links:
1) Introductions -
2) City scores -
3) Which one should I, friends, or family visit? -
4) When to visit and weather -
5) Who is the city suited for? -
6) The perfect 48hours (with map) -
7) Tourism details (where to stay? airport details?)
Beer-mad and shrouded by the mountains, Munich is the boisterous capital of Bavaria. It's in the deep southern reaches of the country, where lederhosen are the threads of choice and white sausage is served at breakfast. Proudly unique, romantic, and steeped in art and culture, you won't find anywhere else like this in Germany.
Of course, it's the legendary Oktoberfest that puts Munich on the map. One of the world's biggest festivals, it draws millions to the city in late September (yes, Oktoberfest is confusingly held in September) to glug huge beers and eat endless wurst. Trips at any other time of the year are sure to be a little more refined. They can involve long walks under Baroque churches, picnics in the English Garden park, and even daytrips to the stunning Bavarian Alps.
Which city would I go to? Munich
Which one would I recommend to my parents?
Which location for my 19-year-old cousin?
Which for my food obsessed friend?
Note: The above comparison does not consider the weather, and assumes travel at the best time of year (which is detailed later in this article)
The following sections compare the two cities and considers; how long to spend in them, when to visit, and provides suggested 48hours in each city (along with an interactive map). The final section is tourism practicalities and includes which airport to fly into, what district to be based in and how best to explore the city.
We hope that you find all of this information useful, in planning your next exciting trip!
Destination details
Take a couple of days minimum to get a feel for the alternative vibes of Munich. You'll need at least a morning or two to check off the grand churches and plazas of the downtown. Afternoons are often lost to a haze of currywurst and spätzle. The evenings will disappear to clinking tankards and too much Bavarian beer.
If you're planning on joining the Oktoberfest party, then the normal amount of time to spend in the Munich event is two days. Some people will stick around longer but remember that accommodation can cost a bomb during festival dates and you'll need to book well in advance.
The closeness of the Alps and the wide variety of off-the-beaten-path neighborhoods in Munich mean that it's also possible to stay here for much longer than just a weekend or a couple of days. You could do weeks of hiking in the spring and summer months. Alternatively, you could do a full ski holiday in nearby Garmisch-Partenkirchen (Germany's biggest resort) during the winter.
Seville is a city not to rush, but to embrace the relaxed pace of life and tapas culture.
For sightseeing, two days are sufficient to explore the entire city. It is possible to see Seville in a single day, but this involves a lot of walking at pace and this rushed approach means you miss the allure of the city.
If you visit during the summer, be aware of the extreme weather. You'll need to take things quite a bit slower, and get going much earlier in the day when it's a fraction cooler and less busy.
Popular day trips from Seville include the historic Cordoba and the coastal city of Cadiz. The Pueblos Blancos (White Villages) are dramatic, but a rental car (or guided tour) are needed as public transport is limited. Granada is a wonderful tourist destination, but we feel it is too far for a day trip from Seville. Combining Seville, Granada and Málaga is a great itinerary for a week long holiday.
Munich is one of those cities that has something going for it no matter the time of the year. Lots of people like the height of the summer, for the regular sun and temperatures that often spike above 30 degrees in the middle of the day. That's certainly perfect for wandering the town and enjoying the big lawns and paths of English Garden.
The autumn is best known for Oktoberfest. The shindig and the beer drinking begin in mid-September, lasting until the first couple of days in October. It's usually still warm for the party, but the days get shorter and jumpers will be needed as you get closer to November.
There's often snow in Munich from December onwards. This is the time of year to come if you have your sights set on the ski fields of the German Alps. The slopes of Garmisch-Partenkirchen typically open for business before Christmas, which is also when the enchanting markets start selling gingerbread and sausages on Munich's medieval squares.
Spring is also lovely. May is among the best months of all to travel. The summer crowds haven't arrived yet, the snows have melted, and thermometers can read a pleasant 20 degrees during the day.
The best time of year to visit Seville is during the two festival periods of Semana Santa (held in the week before Easter) and the Feria de Abril (starting two weeks after Easter).
For a regular trip, late autumn and early spring are the best seasons, as during the long summer (June-September) the city is oppressively hot. Winter provides good value and fewer tourists but there is always the potential of rain.
Seville is a pleasure to visit, so long as you can either handle (or avoid) the extreme heat. This is a city for a slower paced trip, to enjoy time in the open-air cafes and to embrace the culture of Andalusia. This makes the city ideal for a break from a stressful lifestyle or hectic work schedule back at home.
The ambience typically appeals to a slightly older visitor, but to assume Seville is a mature destination would be completely wrong. There are exciting tourist attractions, a colourful nightlife and a social atmosphere. One of the appeals of Seville is that it is not a common city break and few of your friends will have been there.
Munich is unique in that it manages to fuse together the great outdoors, rich European culture, and an enticing foodie scene. That's all thanks to its place as the historic capital of Bavaria, which brings a long tradition of cooking, beer making, castle building – the list goes on.
The upshot? There are all sorts of travellers who are catered to, no matter if you come in search of pretzel eating or high-altitude trekking.
One thing you won't find in this city is the sea. The nearest saltwater is a hefty drive over the Alps in Italy or Croatia. So, don't come if you're pining to top up the tan and swim in the Med.
48hours in Munich
Sample Munich's famous food, beer, and regal inner city on this two-day itinerary that's packed with amazing palaces and parks. If you're hanging around for longer, then you should also have time to make a beeline for the Alps or explore those off-the-beaten-track neighborhoods, but that will have to wait…
Day 1: Your travels begin on the grand Odeonsplatz. A prime example of the city's 19th-century rebuilding, it hosts some of the most magnificent sights in the region. There's the huge, 130-room Munich Residenz, the onetime home of the Bavarian kings and queens. There's the Theatine Church from the 1600s, sporting its dual Baroque towers.
You only have 48 hours, but the palaces can be visited if you have extra time. Instead, move on through the heart of the city on Briennerstraße to the vast plaza of Königsplatz. This is a photo op extraordinaire, with handsome Neo-Classical monuments like the strange Propyläen. The area around that is the artistic quarter (the Kunstareal), where there are endless museums and galleries to go into if you need to warm up or escape the rain.
Next is the beautiful Frauenkirche. This is a symbol of Munich as a whole; a great church topped by bulbous domes on the central Frauenplatz. It will take around 20 minutes to walk over there, but you'll enjoy moving into the Altstadt area as you go. You should plan to spend the evening within, hopping between sights like the iconic Hofbräuhaus (the best known beer hall in the city) and the ancient Peterskirche (the oldest church in Munich).
The Schloss Nymphenburg and its beautiful grounds
Day 2: No visit to the grand royal capital of Bavaria could possibly be complete without at least a glimpse of the Schloss Nymphenburg. It's hardly central, but private tours can whisk you there and back in a single morning, going through the manicured gardens, the court rooms, and the curious Marstallmuseum with its gold-leafed carriages from the 19th century.
When you return back to the middle of Munich head straight for the English Garden. This is one of Germany's favourite parks. You could start by strolling up the Eisbach to see the surfers riding the river wave. Then explore the pretty Hofgarten, where babbling fountains and bandstands once provided a retreat for Bavarian royals. Alternatively, go straight to the Chinese Tower Beer Garden, to glug traditional German hops brews and taste bratwurst and pretzels until sundown.
Below is an interactive map for 48 hours in Seville; day 1 is highlighted in green and day 2 in yellow, with optional sights in grey.
Start the day in the impressive Catedral de Sevilla, and climb to the top of La Giralda bell tower for a wonderful viewpoint. Surrounding the cathedral is the atmospheric Santa Cruz district, with its traditional houses and narrow cobblestone streets, which follow the old medieval layout of the city.
For the afternoon, visit the grand Plaza de España and the adjoining Parque de Maria Luisa. Towards the end of the day join a cruise along the Guadalquivir River. For dinner, head to the Triana district for an authentic Tapas meal. This district is also where flamenco dancing originated, and one of the bars may well have some impromptu dancing happening during the evening.
The gardens of the Real Alcázar palace
For the second day, start by visiting the Real Alcázar palace, the finest example of Mudéjar architecture which fuses Arabic and Christian designs. For the afternoon, head north of the historic centre and explore the popular shopping streets of Calle Sierpes. End the afternoon at the Setas De Sevilla, a massive wooden structure and great viewpoint.
In the evening, watch a flamenco performance at the La Carbonería.
Munich International Airport is the second busiest hub in all of Germany. It's a major arrival point, with links coming in on premium and low-cost fliers from right around the globe. Getting to the city from the terminals is easy thanks to the direct S-Bahn line that runs straight to the train station. The trip costs just over €11 and takes around 40 minutes in total.
Munich is a safe, modern city. The locals are famed for their friendliness and welcoming attitude – a trait of Bavaria, they say. However, it's still important to be wary of scams and dangers, particularly during the Oktoberfest, when alcohol intake increases dramatically.
The best areas to stay in Munich are the Altstadt, the streets around English Garden, and the grand university and gallery area of Maxvorstadt. Cheaper hotels that are still within walking distance of the sights can be found south of the main train station around Bayerstraße.

Report : Drone Logistics & Transportation Market to 2027 - Global Analysis and Forecasts by Type (Freight Drones, Passenger Drones, and Ambulance Drones); Application (Warehousing, Shipping, and Others); and End User (Military and Commercial)
The drone logistics & transportation market is experiencing high growth in the forecast period. Increasing demands for faster delivery of goods is the most significant factor driving the growth of the drone logistics and transportation market. Concerns regarding safety during travel and package drop as well as lack of skilled & trained personnel are the few other challenges to be faced by drone logistics and transportation market. The drone logistics & transportation providers are gaining prominence in the commercial sector owing to the fact that the end users are seeking various ways to cut down operational cost in their business and bring in faster mode of delivery. In the current state of commercial drone operations, several government bodies and authorities have imposed stringent laws and regulations. This factor has limited the drone operations in various developed as well as developing regions across the globe. One of the most critical laws imposed upon commercial drone operations is that the drone pilot should maintain a visual line of sight with the unmanned aerial vehicle while in operation. The future of the market is anticipated to be prominent, with the implementation of Beyond the Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS). The benefits of BVLOS is that the concept allows the operators to fly drones in complex conditions and truly unmanned technology without the need for takeoff and landing. This technological concept is anticipated to trigger the growth of the market in the coming years.
The drone logistics & transportation market has been derived from market trends and revenue generation factors from five different regions across the globe namely; North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa, and South America. APAC is expected to be the fastest growing region in global drone logistics & transportation market. Whereas, Europe and North America holds a highest market share in the drone logistics & transportation market. The demand for drone logistics & transportation in developing economies is constantly rising as the number of applications are rising in different sectors. With a continuous advancement in drone technology, the large multinational companies are seeking forward for drones to ensure quick delivery of parcels with high speed while lowering time and operational costs. Asian countries have an advantage of having most confident shoppers when it comes to receiving deliveries through drones and using autonomous technology to make payments. The major reason for this is the presence of larger population, developing internet infrastructure, and growing awareness about the usage of drones. The continuous growth in retail and online businesses in emerging markets of APAC and international companies targeting these economies for the expansion of their business is resulting in the growth of implementation of drone logistics & transportation in the region. Further, striving digital initiatives along with the adoption of advance technologies by the Asian countries have drove strong government support for adopting drone for particular. Rapid growth of online business in Asian countries has made the region a prosperous market for the parcel delivery. Continuous government support in the countries particularly in India is one of major reason to improve and increase adoption of advanced technologies in the market. These factors are responsible for adoption of drones for logistics as well as transportation purpose in APAC region. Geographically, North America will have the largest share in the drone logistics & transportation market by 2027, later followed by Europe and APAC region, owing to rapid technological developments, numerous investments and supportive Government policies in the western part of the world.

In The Yellow Drawings, Mark Mahosky explores the Gettysburg Civil War battlefield as a site of memory and memorialization through black ink and charcoal drawings on brightly painted grounds, using the palette of highway warning signs as if to grab our attention. Mahosky's long-term engagement with the Gettysburg battlefield reached its zenith in August of 2015, when he became a resident artist with the National Park Service, which administers the sprawling site. There he spent most of his time drawing the battlefield en plein air. The presentation of this body of work is timely, as the Civil War has re-entered the public consciousness due to recent events that challenge the racism long associated with the symbols of the Confederacy.

It's English Wine Week (28 May – 5 June)! So our Wine of the Month has to come from an English wine producer. With a little help from one of our wine suppliers, Welch & Co, we settled on Henners 2010 Brut.
This is a month in which we celebrate the uprising of viticulture in England, so it had to be bubbles. Not just any bubbles: an award winning English sparkling wine!
Obviously you need to try it. Here's a little bit about how it's produced and what it's like.
The grapes
If you want to test us on the story behind this sparkling wine, we can tell you that it's made from a combination of Pinot Noir and Meunier grapes. Specifically, 56% of the former and 44% of the latter.
Pressing the grapes
The pressing process used to produce this fizzy delight is known as 'whole bunch press' and it's exactly as it sounds. The whole bunch is put in the press, stalks and all! This is how Champagne is traditionally produced in France. And it's particularly in line with The Miller's food ethos of extracting the most flavours and uses from our ingredients. Maybe sparkling wine production should be our next adventure…!
In the wine production process though, pressing the whole grape has a technical role that contributes towards a wine's colour, taste and what they call 'mouthfeel'.
The cuvée
To produce this sparkling wine and any Champagne or sparkling wine produced in the traditional fashion, the whole bunch press is done very lightly. So abandon any thoughts of stamping out the juices. These grapes were gently encouraged to give up the best of their juice.
And the best juice of the grape is known as the cuvée. Specifically, it's the first 2,050 litres of juice from 4,000kg of grapes. Now you know!
Are you a Jilly Golden or an Oz Clarke?
The entire process from selecting the grapes to use, to how they are handled and how long the fizz is aged for, contributes to the finish of this wine. That's why we're telling you all this!
But if you fancy yourself as a bit of a wine expert, tell us if you can spot the ripe pears on the nose or even the wiff of a pear tatin with its sweet pastry. And once the soft smoothness has graced your mouth, can you detect a hint of sweet almond finish?
Most importantly, if you enjoy the wine – let us know!
We like it (or else it wouldn't be on our list!). And it was awarded a Decanter Gold Medal in the 2016 awards. But your opinion is what counts to us. If you vote with your Champagne flutes, we'll look to keep it on the menu.
A little bit about the vineyard
Henners is owned and run by Lawrence Warr, an automotive engineer turned viticulturist who followed his passion to create the finest English sparkling wines. The vineyards enjoy a long searched for spot in Herstmonceux in East Sussex and produce only grapes for the best of English bubbly.
So now you know what we know and like about Henners. Cheers!

Here is a recipe for a simple, quick and delicious supper. It relies on a tried and tested combo of three main ingredients:- some sort of bean or pulse, some form of cured pig and something green and leafy. In this case it's cured spanish pork shoulder, chickpeas and kale, but there are loads of possible variations on the theme. Think of boiled gammon, split peas and cabbage, or maybe ham, lentils and spinach.
You will need:
olive oil
one medium-sized onion
2 fat cloves of garlic
2 medium-sized ripe tomatoes
a tin of chickpeas
50g of cured ham (I used paleta ibérico - cured pork shoulder from Spanish Ibérico pigs)
a pinch of dried chilli flakes
half a cup of boiling water
a handful of kale
salt and pepper
a lemon
This will serve one greedy person as a one dish meal, or two people with plenty of crusty bread and a pudding to follow.
What to do:
1. Roughly chop the onion and sweat it in olive oil for five minutes or so without browning.
2. Finely chop the garlic, add it to the pan and fry for another minute or two.
3. Roughly chop the tomatoes, add them to the pan and fry for another minute or two.
4. Drain the chick peas and add them to the pan with the pinch of chilli.
5. Roughly chop the ham, add it to the pan and fry for another minute or two.
5. Add the water to the pan, stir and bring to a simmer.
6. Add the handful of kale and simmer for a few minutes until the kale has softened.
7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Serve immediately with a squeeze of lemon, a drizzle of olive oil and plenty of crusty bread to mop up the juices.

HotLink Enables Service Providers to Battle Cybersecurity Attacks with New Fully-Integrated Veeam Cloud Connect Technology
December 2018 by Marc Jacob
HotLink® Corporation announced its beta program for Veeam Cloud & Service Providers (CSPs) to address next-generation cybersecurity threats affecting their backup and replication customers. As a Veeam Alliance Partner, HotLink's new technology delivers robust cybersecurity capabilities to identify, analyze and remediate a broad spectrum of security threats that negatively impact disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) and backup as a service (BaaS) end users.
With this new HotLink technology, Veeam partners can provide their customers with the automated cyber analysis and actionable intelligence to fight compromises that render backups unrecoverable in the event of a cyberattack or other production irregularity.
According to a recent Ponemon study, two-thirds of small- and mid-sized businesses reported a threat evaded their intrusion detection systems, and 53 percent were attacked by ransomware two or more times. As next-generation malware, ransomware, phishing attacks, advanced persistent threats, internal bad actors and inadvertent IT errors escalate in frequency and complexity, threats can lie dormant for months – taking 197 days on average to identify a cyber breach, according to recent research. Months of undetected vulnerabilities then propagate into backup files and disaster recovery (DR) systems designed to protect companies if front-end security solutions fail, making recovery time protracted or often infeasible. HotLink's new technology for Veeam DRaaS and BaaS providers offers a powerful, cost-effective solution for detection and remediation of security threats for end users of all sizes.
Industry research shows that more than 50 percent of IT shops indicate security is a top priority in their 2019 budgets. HotLink helps Veeam partners differentiate their DRaaS and BaaS offerings and gain new revenue opportunities by offering robust and unique cybersecurity capabilities, such as fine-grained security fingerprints, correlation to threat intelligence and policy-based analysis of every backup and replica – all without the requirement to restore virtual machines in a sandbox or affecting customer production environments. This is an industry first and an important step toward protecting Veeam customers from the daily attacks facing critical operations. To support various service provider business models, HotLink's cybersecurity technology for Veeam will have a range of licensing options, including:
• Continuous backup and replication cybersecurity fingerprinting and analysis with correlation to multiple threat intelligence feeds, enabling the most comprehensive threat protection and recovery;
• Basic backup and replication cybersecurity fingerprinting and threat analysis, enabling a low-cost, easy-to-use entry level CSP offering; and
• Limited-term cybersecurity analysis following broad-based malware or ransomware outbreaks, assuring customers can identify latent threats and avoid major disaster.

The Nun is here but not to scare the sh*t out of you but to make you go ROFL 😀 AIB i.e. All India Bakchod has created multiple photoshopped version of The Nun movie poster. The movie is a horror flick, which is soon to be released, has already created a lot of creepiness and scare amongst the viewers. The trailer looks scary enough for us to pee in our pants.
Anyway, that's a separate matter to deal with. For now all thanks to AIB and their creativity we just had some great laugh and it just made our day a bit better.
Have a look and decide which one is the best out of the lot!
Starting with just the simple one…
Then comes the legend…
Ms. Shah's business in Nun of your business, mind it!
Kab aayega Sawan? Ghanan nun nun ghanan……
Presenting Nundu sab ka Bandhu 😛
Jethalal says Nunsense!
Kamlesh is here 😛
Shri Nurendra Modiji pe ek toh banta hai 🙂
Last but not the least, this one is like…Hota sab ke paas hai, dikhata koi nahi 😛
Well, this was some treat. All thanks to AIB 😀

I have created a remix of the beautiful painting by Thomas Blackshear called Forgiven.
It speaks for itself.
I live in a gift economy, so I give all of my writing freely to you. I depend on your good will and generosity so that my family and I may live, and so that I may continue to write and share insights as we grow together. If you were inspired by this, if it sparked new insight or understanding in you, I invite you to also give, to participate in "the Gift". If every reader gave just $1, it would give life to me and my family. I express my deepest gratitude to you for your Gift!

Coming off one of their biggest wins of the season, the University of Victoria Vikes men's rugby team will be trying to extend their three game winning streak when they take on the Meraloma Rugby Club in Vancouver, B.C. on March 17.
Their current winning streak of three games is the longest of the Premier League season for the Vikes so far, and has moved them from near the bottom of the table all the way into the hunt for the playoffs. Currently sitting in the seventh-place, the Vikes are just five points behind James Bay for the sixth and final playoff spot.
A grouping of Capilano RFC, James Bay, the Vikes and Seattle are the four teams battling it out for the two remaining playoff positions. The Capilanos lead that group with 41 points, followed by James Bay with 39, UVic with 34 and Seattile with 33.
The Meralomas defeated the Vikes in Victoria back in the middle of October. The visitors from Vancouver scored two tries in the final five minutes of the game to steal a 31-26 and send the Vikes to what was then a 1-4 record.
The Vikes team that fell to Meralomas six months ago has looked completely different as of late, and in no game was that more evident than their 36-31 victory over the first-place UBC Old Boys Ravens two weeks ago.
Gavin Kratz, James Pitblado, Liam Mahon and Oliver Nott all scored tries in the game as the Vikes out-dueled an extremely talented Ravens team
"We are playing better as a team," said Vikes head coach Doug Tate on his teams' turnaround. "Having Oliver Nott back is huge for our back row. Nott, Pitblado and Jackson Matthews played against a very strong back row from the Ravens two weeks ago and I thought we outplayed them."
Meraloma meawhile, fell 32-12 to James Bay in their last Premier League action.
By the Numbers
4: The Vikes are one of the hottest teams in the Premier League right now, four of their six wins on the season have come in their last five games.
94: Despite the fact that the Lomas have played two more games than the Vikes, UVic has scored almost 100 points more than their opposition this weekend.
Coach's Take
Doug Tate, Vikes head coach
"We have good depth with some guys returning from injuries and it is very competitive to get a spot on our team right now."
"The Lomas are a well-coached team but they've had some ups and downs. It is their first year back in the Premier League and the schedule can be a grind. Our game in October was one of the games that got away from us, we had a good opportunity to win that game. Those are the games that if we had won, we would be playing for a better playoff spot rather than just trying to make it in."
On the playoff push
"We are going to need a little help but I think on paper we have an easier schedule than some of the other teams. Every game you play is hard in this league though."

This is a bit of a strange request, but bare with me.
This project is further down the line, but I'd like to get it done before it's crunch time. Within about twenty pages or so on one of my comics there will be an informative portion that will include 'art' from various sources (to quote the comic 'tapestries, paintings, wall scrawlings'). I can't give too much information in forums since there may be people who don't want the spoiler.
Basically, I'm looking for people who have different styles from my own to represent the different forms of art which these pictures were derived from as far as the story line goes. I only need about a total of 20 seperate pieces, all of them very simple, and I need at least 4 different styles/artists. If you are interested, either pm me or email me at email@example.com for more information.
Your style doesn't have to be anything like mine, in fact, I prefer that it isn't, but that doesn't mean that if you draw anime you're excluded since my style isn't quite conventional anime. You'll be given full credit and kudos. To see the comic I'm talking about, go here: http://drunkduck.com/Broken_Star It's a bit rough looking at the moment, but will improve and most likely be in color by the time the aforementioned scene is uploaded.

Looking for temp artists!!

I found out the reason why I couldn't unserstand what it meant…the ActiveX box where the featured comics show up on the main site doesn't work on this comp…lol so I've never seen it. Was always wondering what that blank box was for….

Well maybe I could help. I'd really need to know more specifics of what I'd be drawing. I have two comics with two different styles.

Here comes my story. Along with clichés. But most importantly, the truth. Ever since I was young I've felt different. Something just wasn't right, and I never knew what it was. I had more friends that were boys, I got along better with boys, and I liked it that way. It felt better than being a girl. Which, looking back, never felt right. I didn't have a bad childhood. My parents did not make me that way, I was just considered a "tomboy". There was nothing wrong with it, and it was no one's fault. It's still no one's fault.
From the very beginning I have been good at sports. I loved it. I made the travel soccer team before I was supposed to, before the rest of the kids my age did, I swam and played basketball for CYO, I played volleyball, made the varsity softball team of my high school in 9th grade, and the varsity soccer team. My grandparents taught me how to golf, my dad taught me how to hunt and fish, my brothers taught me how to skate. I was throwing myself into sports from an early age to keep myself busy, and it was fun. But I was trying to find something. Something that would fill the void inside of me, and make me feel like I was normal.
The move from middle school to high school was an interesting one. I separated from some friends, and gained others. I started to get close to my third cousin Sarah, and ended up helping at her school with her theater club. We started getting closer and closer as friends and not only did we start to hang out more, but I got to know some of her friends also. I'm not sure when it happened, but I fell head over heels in love with Sarah. Every part of me was screaming "but I'm supposed to be a girl!! And I know I'm not a lesbian!" and "it'll never be okay. she's your cousin." So I did my best to hide it. And when I couldn't really do that, I tried to shift my focus of affection from Sarah to her friend Liz. That didn't work either.
Summer of 2008. I've just graduated high school, made it the whole time without throwing myself at Sarah (much to my own surprise), and it seems like not many people (unless I told them in secret) knows the wiser. Success. Sarah is working during the summer out east in Hampton Bays. Now since 2004 when I knew for sure that I was in love with Sarah, I have been talking myself into it. Convincing myself that the past 4 years have not been in vain, and maybe someday she'll come to love me the way that I love her despite the fact that we're family (but really, third cousins? Who cares? And we can't even biologically have kids...). So I've been going for it. And working my ass off to woo her. Yes, I said 'woo'. And (again, much to my surprise) it seems to be working. I've got her hooked, I know it. We're up talking until all hours of the night, we're falling asleep in each other's arms. It was perfect. But I couldn't kiss her. I was a coward.
September 6th, 2008. Freshman year. I'm visiting Sarah at Purchase and for what must have been about 15 seconds and feels like a lifetime, she's been laying there with her eyes closed, giving me the kiss-me face. I manage to find some courage somewhere in the universe, and I kiss her. And my jaw has never been so clenched, and my lips so tight. It was like a 4 year old making a Ken doll kiss a Barbie. Honestly, it was pretty terrible. You can ask her, she'll tell you.
The next day was panic. We didn't really talk about it, but she kept saying "it's okay, really" over and over and all I could think was damnit I ruined it. And that'll never happen again. And I swear I can kiss better than that, really. And for the next 2 weeks we called each other every night talking about it. What would the family say, and how are we going to work this out, and damnit I swear I can kiss better than that! And when she came to visit me in Albany, we had a do-over of our first kiss. It was much better, thanks for asking.
We've been together ever since.
2010. Gender Studies Class. "Today we're going to talk about transgenders." Tranny jokes ensue, Birdcage references made. The usual that I'm familiar with. But then we really started talking about it. Like real adults. And it's not just Birdcage trannys. I'm sitting in class, next to my friend "JPK", and it fucking hits me. That's it. That's what this is. I'm a boy in here, that really happens. People deal with this all the time, and I could take hormones, and get surgery, and the outside would match the inside. I'm thrilled that I finally, FINALLY, figured out what the hell is wrong with me. And it's not wrong at all, it's just lesser known.
Ever since that day I have been dreaming of a new life. A life where I can really be myself, and be a bro instead of a hoe. A day when I can take my shirt off at the beach and not get fined for it. And play shirts vs skins basketball and be on the skins team. A five o'clock shadow. A deeper voice. Easier muscle growth.
Well, it's happening. Thursday will be my first day of hormone therapy, and I'll start taking testosterone shots. My parents are not thrilled, and I didn't expect them to be. It's okay that they're upset, and don't understand. Because growing up here on Long Island, I didn't understand either. And if I hadn't gone away to school and taken that class, and then gone to trans meetings, and support groups, I wouldn't even be close to where I am today.
I'm nervous, impatient, but most of all excited. I'm finally on the road to becoming a real boy. People may not understand, and that's okay. All I can do is live my life, and try to teach some people along the way. But that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to live my life. I have been the rock of this family forever. And my brother Michael told me that I should do what makes me happy, and that love is love, and if people love me, they'll come around. Since he said it, and since he died, I've come to realize more and more that life is too short to not do what makes me happy. So thanks to him, and others who have said the same things, I have the courage to do it now.
Because life is too damn short. And that's the truth.

Running For Their Lives
Seven years ago, LA Superior Court Judge Craig Mitchell began visiting the shelter Midnight Mission in Los Angeles's notorious Skid Row after being invited by a parolee. Mitchell started going on regular runs with homeless shelter residents, recovering addicts, and ex-convicts. They were joined by lawyers, members of law enforcement, and local business owners; a running club was soon formed.
|Mitchell began offering the members of the club a once in a lifetime proposition- refrain from using drugs and stay out of prison, and earn the opportunity to travel around the world to participate in marathons.
|Ellen's Silkscreening has partnered with the Skid Row Running Club for the last two years to provide them with activewear shirts, tank tops, hats, and jackets, as well as backpacks for the club members to take with them when they participate in international marathons.
A documentary made about the running club with be screening later this month at the Laemmle Playhouse 7 theater in Pasadena. The film makers, Judge Mitchell, and other members of the club will be in attendance to participate in Q&A sessions after several of the screenings. For more information about the club and the film, we recommend this interviewproduced by the BBC.

December is the time of year we all come together to celebrate love, family and friendship. The giving and receiving of gifts, the making and eating of delicious meals, the myriad holiday traditions carried over from generation to generation… these are all hallmarks of this very special time of year. But no tradition is more emblematic of the holiday season than the annual deluge of articles by a bunch of film snob grinches explaining that your favorite Christmas rom-com, Love Actually, is actually terrible/problematic/ridiculous.*
This will not be one of those articles. Instead, I have something wonderful to share with you all! An anonymous party recently sent me several reels of footage cut from Love Actually that shed light on some of the more troubling plotlines of the film. I am not authorized to show the footage to anybody else, but I will share the most intriguing tidbits with you all as a special holiday treat:
Colin Firth's character, Jamie, is not actually a crime novelist but a vampire hunter. Cut footage reveals that the "writer" alias was merely a front to allow him to keep odd hours and to explain away any strange behavior as just the quirks of an eccentric artist. The film was meant to serve as a setup for a sequel called "Blood Actually" in which Jamie and Aurelia would travel throughout Europe fighting the forces of darkness. Colin Firth pulled out during early contract negotiations and therefore the only vestige that remains of this key storyline is the shot above, in which Jamie puts a fuckload of garlic in his trunk.
Once the vampire plotline was nixed, director Richard Curtis felt that he needed to eliminate the other supernatural storyline originally planned: the fairy-tale element of the doomed romance between Laura Linney's Sarah and Rodrigo Santoro's Karl. See, as a young man Karl hit it and quit it with a lovely young lady who turned out to be an ancient witch in disguise. In retaliation for his disgusting "screw and adieu" maneuver, she put a curse on him wherein if he ever found himself in a sexy situation but did not complete the deed by midnight, his wang would turn into a sea cucumber FOREVER. Therefore when Sarah chose to take a call from her mentally ill brother (who has seemingly unlimited phone privileges) instead of boarding the bang train with him, Karl was rendered incapable of consummating their love.
The original cut of the film was deemed too cynical by test audiences, so the post-script in which it was revealed that Martine McCutcheon's Natalie was not in fact in love with Hugh Grant's Prime Minister, but was actually an investigative journalist writing an exposé on sexual harassment in the political world, was axed. In this delightful epilogue, both the Prime Minister and the President's careers were effectively ended by her article and she went on to become a world-famous journalist and Pulitzer Prize-winner.
The Wisconsin orgy was actually a dream Colin had on the flight over and he spent his vacation striking out at every bar in the Milwaukee metropolitan area. Harriet was a struggling actress he hired to save face with his buddy when he returned to England. Male members of the test audience found this reveal to be too heartbreaking and it was removed to placate them.
Alan Rickman's affair was far more complicated than it appears in the final cut of the film. Harry (Rickman's awful character) thought that Mia wanted him for his rugged good looks and sexy voice, but she was actually a spy on the run from German mobsters who had pursued her from her homeland after she was burned during an undercover mission. They eventually caught up to her and only agreed to let her live if she carried out a revenge mission for them: breaking up the marriage of their sworn enemy Karen (as played by Emma Thompson). Prior to her marriage Karen was a member of MI6 who was instrumental in the takedown of certain German smuggling operations. Sadly Mia's fascinating backstory was deemed out of step with the romantic tone of the movie and Curtis opted to portray her instead as an inexplicably horny sociopath. Even more sadly, this forced them to cut the uplifting ending in which Karen and Mia reveal their spy identities to one another and fall in love and start their own super spy agency (using an insurance company as a front). It's rumored that after Blood Actually fell through, Curtis intended to turn this story into a standalone sequel (Love Actuarily) but the lesbian content was deemed too risky for audiences in 2003.
Similarly, the ending of the Billy Mack plotline (in which Billy and his manager Joe make sweet and tender love to one another) did not delight bigoted test audiences and a "no homo" version was reshot in its place.
The elimination of these storylines left a bit of a hole in the film, which Curtis filled with the Martin Freeman/Joanna Page nude stand-ins plotline, because when in doubt, put some boobs on screen, am I right? Speaking of which though, and as a concluding point to this post, what in the fuck sexual position are they supposed to be imitating here?
Kudos to Martin Freeman because that's exactly the face I would make if a lady was sitting with her junk on my abdomen and her legs in a position from which I could only assume she was planning to thigh-choke me.
Sadly the world will never see Love Actually as it was originally intended, but we can all still enjoy its watered down dregs!
*Full disclosure, I love reading these articles despite loving Love Actually unreservedly.
