That's all about to change, however, as the all new 3rd generation model is out to prove that the Sportage has stepped up its game, and is now ready for the big leagues.
It starts with the design of the car. On the outside, I think it can be unanimously said that the new Sportage is an outstandingly conceived and designed car. The front end looks sleek and properly modern, making full use of that tiger grille and tapered projector headlamps that Peter Schreyer (the genius who designed the original Audi TT) and his Kia design team came up with to full effect. The lines are clean and purposeful, adding sporty character to the new crossover as even the windshield has some cool details. The rear end is unmistakably upmarket, and dare I say, looks quite Audi-ish. The cherry on the Sportage has to be those cool LED strips that run along the base of the headlamps, giving the car a very distinct character, lending many I encounter to ask if those are stock or if I added them as an aftermarket accessory.
The inspired design continues inside, with a very modern dash layout. Like the exterior, the interior also makes use of plenty of cool details. The deep red of the instrument displays are great to look at, and even the seats have cool little roundels that give it a great accent. If there is something lacking for design, then its the near-monotone colors of the dash materials, as the interior could certainly make use of some more brushed metal or carbon fiber-ish trim panels.
Of course, design is nothing without quality feel, and thus Sportage makes use of tactile, upscale surfaces all around, as the plastics and composites feel great to the touch. I love that steering wheel, with its thick rim and excellent leather and stitching. The buttons feel very high quality, and again, the shifter for the transmission seems very Audi indeed.
For features, the Sportage gets the fully loaded package. The car comes with a full range of power assistance for the windows, locks and mirror adjustment, along with motor driven power steering. The audio system is the same as the Kia Soul, minus the funky LEDs. The head unit has the standard AM, FM, CD, MP3 playback and 6 speakers. The audio system adds the convenience of full iPod connectivity via a special cable, a USB and an auxiliary-in port, while the steering wheel has buttons to control the audio system. The airconditioning system does not have automatic climate control, but I've always preferred manual aircons over the newer computer controlled types.
Now to the nitty gritty. Under the hood is the new 2 liter powerplant from Kia with continuously variable valve timing for both the intake and exhaust cams. The engine is capable of 166 metric horsepower and 197 Newton meters, and while that sounds good on paper, however, it does not really translate as much to the road as I would have wanted. For some reason, the Sportage doesn't perform as well as I hoped, finishing a 0-100 km/h sprint in 11.7 seconds, and has a relatively difficult time (as noted by the high revs) getting up inclines.
I found this strange, particularly because I drove the Hyundai Tucson D-CVVT before; a car that I was truly impressed with and a car with which the Sportage shares a lot with... including the platform and the engine. A quick glance at the vehicle's curb weight quickly answered my questions, as the Sportage D-CVVT AWD weighs in at over 1636 kilograms; a figure that is nearly 150 kilos more than the similarly specced Tucson.
The 6-speed automatic transmission and its shorter ratios helped in coping with the weight, but having a small 2 liter engine lug along the extra weight of an all-wheel drive transmission seems to have cancelled it out. As a result, the engine returns fuel economy figures of just an average 7.9 km/l in the city and 9.6 km/l on the highway (both in light to moderate traffic).
What makes up for the lack of punch and just average fuel economy is the handling and comfort of the car. On winding roads, the drive is progressive and predictable. Of course, at higher revs, economy doesn't matter, and the breaks of the transmission's 6-gears come into play. The all wheel drive transmission does quite well on slippery off road trails, though its best to leave the extreme off-road trails to the professionally modified SUVs and trucks. On rutted concrete and pothole-infested roads that line the metro however, the Kia performs well to contain the rough stuff, and on the highway it feels as smooth as the crossovers that Europe has to offer... at a fraction of the price.
As it stands, the Kia Sportage EX D-CVVT all wheel drive model is available at just PhP 1,258,000 from the dealerships. If you were in the market for this car, however, I would recommend you just get the front wheel drive model. It just makes more sense as a daily driver, and is a hundred grand cheaper.
The design, features and comfort were definitely great in the new Kia Sportage. If those were the only factors I had to consider for this review, then the Sportage would easily get the full 5-star rating. However, the extra weight that the Sportage carries does have a profound effect, especially on efficiency, and thus, this almost perfect Korean crossover gets just 4.

Review: Vizio P-Series 4K TV With HDR
For years, my living room TV has held its place at the top of my home's video food chain. It's an old 60-inch plasma HDTV with a thick black frame that can't help but take over the room's decor. Other TVs come in and out of the house, but the plasma has never lost its spot as the most popular big screen around. Recently, that has changed. My office has become the top draw in the house, and that's thanks to the new 55-inch Vizio P Series.
The P Series stands for Performance in Vizio's mind. Starting at $800 for the 55-inch (P55-F1), it's a very reasonably priced high-resolution 4K Ultra HD TV when compared to offerings from Samsung, Sony, and LG. Yet, for the ever budget-conscious Vizio, it's pretty much the top of the line (with the exception of the P Quantum for $2,100+). That's good news—because it puts out a mighty good picture for less than a grand.
I was most impressed by the inky blacks. The P Series can't compare to the blacks you'll see on LG's surreal OLED TVs, but it's damn close at times, and that's impressive. After many months of hearing me rave about it, my wife started watching The Expanse last week, and the P Series has become the TV we watch it on. It's a treat to watch the Rocinante torpedo through space and zip around Earther stealth ships in near pitch-black.
At a 45-degree angle, I noticed some 'blooming,' or light halos, around bright objects in space---nothing too bad, though. Blooming is a small, common side effect of 'full array' local dimming tech. To improve picture performance over edge-lit TVs, which light up from the sides, and other types of lighting tech, Vizio places a grid of bright LED lights behind the LCD display of its TVs. Using smart programming, that grid of lights is chopped up into smaller 'zones' that the TV will jack up the brightness in areas of the screen that demand it, and darken other areas.
My 55-inch model had 56 of these dimming zones. The larger 65-inch model has 100. More zones usually means less bloom because they're able to deliver more precise lighting, so if you buy the larger model, you may notice this even less. As it stands, if I'm looking for it, I do notice that bright ships in deep space---like in any Star Wars or, yes, The Expanse (seriously, watch it)---do have a small halo around them, like a street lamp on a mildly foggy night.
Chances are high you may never notice it, so keep that in mind. Blooming is a small price to pay for better contrast overall.
Thanks in part to those deep blacks, colors are vibrant and accurate. The P Series supports a few of the new, competing HDR (high-dynamic range) formats like HDR10, HLG, and Dolby Vision. You don't need to know what all those formats mean; just know that HDR support means that when you see a sunset onscreen in Westworld, the sunlight glimmering onto the robotronic theme park looks extra orange, bold, and bright, and all those shadows and details in the rest of the scene---like the subtle color of a darkened tree---stands out more.
Response time has also been quick enough that I haven't noticed any lag while playing games like Fortnite.
Like many LED TVs, the P Series is all screen, with less than half-inch plastic bezels around the edges and a flat caboose that extends about 3 inches. Some TVs are thinner, but a little heft is worth it. The extra junk in the trunk helps fit the full array (grid) of local dimming LEDs. A set of fairly standard metal feet at each end hold up the 40-pound display and Vizio made the plastic on the bottom of the TV silver to match. Vizio's TVs seem to look classier every season.
Around back there are five HDMI ports, one USB, component cables for old accessories, an optical port for soundbars, and an Ethernet jack. It's a little tough to feel out all the HDMI ports in the dark, but that's pretty common. I got used to it after a couple days. The TV can also connect directly to Wi-Fi (AC) and comes with Chromecast built in, so you can cast videos or music from your phone. Casting is especially handy if you want to show someone a photo on your phone or quickly play a particular YouTube video.
Vizio's onboard "Smartcast" app interface is less ideal, like most TV-maker made interfaces. It has many of the big apps, and they're all sluggish. Netflix and Amazon are present, along with Hulu (though with an out of date interface) and tons of others. Still, apps like HBO and Showtime are absent. My favorite app is Xumo, which has MSNBC and a number of other live TV channels in it for free. If you cut cable years ago like me, free channels are always appreciated. Unlike many Vizio TVs in recent years, including the E Series, this TV also has a built-in TV tuner so you can plug a digital antenna directly to it. It's nice to see Vizio put TV tuners back in their TVs, which technically actually had to be advertised as "Displays" for a couple years because they lacked a tuner.
As always, I recommend you buy a Roku to get your streaming apps. A good streaming device is a far simpler way to get digital content on your TV, and it has a much simpler remote control. While you're at it, consider buying a good soundbar. Vizio's in-TV speakers are decent for a TV, but that's hardly a compliment.
If you're counting your Benjamins, TCL's 6-Series has Roku in the box, more dimming zones, and a gorgeous screen for $650, though the P Series may edge it out in overall picture quality, depending on what you're watching. Vizio's mid-range M Series also impresses and starts at $700.
TV pricing varies by the week. Vizio's P Series may or may not be the top bargain whatever day you're hunting for a television, but it should be on your list. For less than $1,000, this 4K HDR TV has deep blacks and vibrant color that rival high-end TVs twice its price. And more important than that, it's a great excuse to finally see Solo: A Star Wars Story. Everything looks vivid on this Vizio.

Any visitor to the Global Institute of Business Studies in Bannerghatta, Bangalore, would first see the infrastructure like the buildings and playgrounds beside the gardens and greenery. Delving further, the boys and girls busy with studies or activities would come to light. The other courses being PGDM, corporate BBA, and B.Com. MBA and PGDM are provided with dual specializations. For some decades now, it has been thought that an MBA from a reputed institution is all you required for resounding professional success. Trying to probe further, it is a world of students' dreams and aspirations, business management being the top sector that attracts the talent universally. And so, it is at GIBS that has several academic programs besides the high in demand MBA. One way or the other, it is a similar business knowledge that is gathered at the differing levels.
Though a Bachelor and a Master degree may hold a great difference, many have succeeded spectacularly with a Bachelor degree alone. On the job, the experience is perhaps greater than academic degrees and real job experiences with reputed companies would help pull up the socks and learn the trade faster than study in classrooms. Professional courses have a great advantage of internships and perhaps placements with some of the best companies and Bangalore is lucky to have many such international companies. The best colleges maintain a steady connection with the industry so that the curriculum and training are quite specific in catering to the current day required of the industry. A network of connections ensures that internships and placements would be spectacularly successful.
Maybe, it sometimes appears that the procedure happens automatically but that is far from the truth. It does sometimes appear that students lead charmed lives with everything done for them by the faculty and the staff. Colleges would advertise facilities they do not really possess and charge exorbitant fees. Several institutions and even colleges and universities work illegally, hold out many rosy promises at the time of admission that is not awarded. Attendance figures are cooked up and questions papers, assignment, and projects may all be leaked, copied and pirated for a small fee. It is true that the education system in India is much maligned with degrees being bought and sold freely.
If the last test of education is job security, then the educational system prevailing in India is far from successful management, perhaps 70% of the management students fail to get good employment. Internship and placement can really be promised or some lucky people can be successful, which are with the drive and caliber. It is a test of the existence of the most qualified person in the urban jungle in a sense! In the quick, quick and panic of receiving the degree, many beginners are victims of unscrupulous colleges and if they are lucky to get one, then the material remains with ordinary jobs.
Perhaps a few awards and recognitions speak for themselves:
Besides attending classes, seminars, and workshops, what else do the students keep themselves busy with? Placements and Internships are high on the agenda too and concern student futures. Sports and Fitness would balance the mind. Cultural activities develop talents and skills along with Photography, Communication, Library, and Entrepreneurship. Maintenance activities are crucial everywhere as is Finance and IT, Marketing and Human Resources. With so much to do, there is little time for the idleness of mind that leads to wayward things. Classroom lessons find practical implementation in a wide range of activities. Gardening too offers physical fitness and creativity. It is true that the dream world of college education leads to a lot of spoiled youth who issue free time in picnics and parties.
Besides GIBS, the organization has many disciplines working away behind the scenes to achieve philanthropic and altruistic goals. The GIBS SOCIAL FOUNDATION and GLOBAL BUSINESS FORUM are two of those arms. GIBS Academy and GIBS Sports Academy have their particular visions and missions. PATHFINDER works via the three arms of VALUE CREATIONS, BUSINESS ACADEMY, and EDU SOLUTIONS.
Unlike many money-making institutions, when you join GIBS, you are in safe hands. Internships and placement ensure that students' careers get a unique launch pad for successful futures.

I live less than 20 minutes from the Main Street where this book takes place. I read it for the first time in 2000 when it was released. Mr. Johnson wrote the book in the 1970's, and let the manuscript lay around for over 20 years before he decided, at the urging of friends and family, to publish it at the age of 96. And what a book it is.
It is the story of the old Jim Crow south and how the author, Ralph Johnson, managed to deal with the inequities of those times. Over the course of 40 years, in the midst of racial segregation, he was able; with great difficulty; to open, operate and maintain the area's largest barber shop. It is also the story of how the misguided elite students and professors of Davidson College, helped to tear it all down with idealism at a time when the country was rife with racial division in the days before, and just after, the assassination of Martin Luther King.
Ralph Johnson was a victim of the Jim Crow era, but in a much different way than one usually thinks. He was not beaten, nor lynched. He was, instead, the unique victim of hostility from his own people; who saw his efforts at bettering himself as an affront to their own lack of initiative; and, at the same time, also the victim of the young white students and faculty at Davidson College, who looked to alleviate the racial discrimination in the town as a way to assuage their own guilt at having benefited from it.
Indeed, even as they were protesting the segregation in Mr. Johnson's barber shop, they themselves were the employers of Negro laundry workers, janitors, and cooks on their own campus. These employees had no rights, no benefits and were paid substandard wages for the time. When they grew too old, or too sick, to work anymore, they were simply dismissed and could be seen wandering in rags, sometimes living with relatives who took them in, or else in camps in the local woods, living like tramps. There were no student protests about these unfortunate victims of Jim Crow from the students of Davidson College.
The book begins with Mr. Johnson's childhood and his scant memories of his father. He recounts his own efforts to obtain an education, which was not possible in Davidson for a person of color at the time. By hard study through correspondence courses taken over many years, Mr. Johnson was able to earn a high school diploma, a college degree and even studied law. As a matter of fact, in 1937, just before the law regarding taking the Bar exam in North Carolina changed, he had been taking law courses in preparation to take the Bar. He was even offered a position with a locally prominent white attorney, but it was economically impossible for him to abandon the barber shop in order to do so.
Eventually he was able to move his shop to Main Street without causing too much backlash. Later, when moving his shop to its final location, he was able to buy a building at the Corner of Main and Depot Streets, which was unheard of at the time. There were several incidents of vandalism and even an attempt at arson on his home as a result of this, but Mr. Johnson, plagued by illness and anxiety, shouldered on and eventually had the best barbershop in the region, drawing customers from every nearby town. By state law he was not permitted to cut the hair of Negroes in his own shop, and even had to have his own hair cut there at night, with the shades drawn.
I moved to this area of North Carolina in 1998, two years before this book was released. I had become familiar with the Town of Davidson by that time. It is a beautiful college town, fully integrated and with a lively economy in spite of the superhighway which runs parallel to it by about 1 mile and has sucked the life out of most of the small towns it breezes through. A lot has changed in the years since Mr. Johnson wrote his story.
The building where Mr. Johnson ran his business is a bank now, which has changed hands over 3 times since we moved here. The author's description of the town allows you to walk down Main Street and identify every building and what businesses used to occupy them. The steeple of the Church across the street from the old barber shop still stands on the grounds of Davidson College, and at certain times of the year, at certain hours of the afternoon, the sun casts the shadow of that cross over Mr. Johnson's old barber shop, in the building he once owned. I think he would find some comfort in that.

Bansko Municipality prohibits disposable plastic products
On the International Plastic Bag Free Day
- July 03, 2019 14:30
- Monika Dimitrova
Bansko Municipality as well as businesses in the Bulgarian resort town have reached an agreement which aims is to completely eliminate disposable plastic products by 2021. The other purpose of the municipality is the packaging - paper, plastic and glass to be collected completely separately. The agreement between the municipality and businesses in the city was signed today, July 3, 2019, on the date that marks the International Plastic Bag Free Day. The event includes a number of initiatives, part of the campaign "inSEPARABLE Bansko", promoting the separate collection, recycling and composting of waste.
Source: Bansko Municipality
"Our goal is to drastically reduce the consumption of plastic bags on the territory of the municipality. As a resort that annually welcomes hundreds of thousands of Bulgarian and foreign guests, it is our duty to show that good examples can become sustainable practices. That is why, within the framework of the July 3 initiative, we have tried to include all - children, parents, shop owners, hotels and restaurants. I think the change çan be done through the participation of every citizen, "said Georgi Ikonomov, Mayor of Bansko Municipality.
In the celebration of the International No Plastic Day will be involved the grocery stores in the city. Today they restrict the sale of polyethylene bags by replacing them with paper provided by the City Hall of Bansko.

14 Things Your Baby Is Thinking When You Take Them Home From The Hospital
I just read Nutshell by Ian McEwan, so I'm convinced a baby's thoughts are much more complex than we give them credit for. OK, maybe not contemplating "the meaning of life" complex, but I think they have a very intricate emotional life. It's easy for me to imagine the inner monologue of my newborn as she navigated breastfeeding and diaper changes, not to mention the new sensations of temperature, light, and sound. It seems perfectly natural to me that there would be certain things your baby is thinking when you take them home from the hospital, too.
Bringing your baby home from the hospital is a momentous occasion. It's also freaking terrifying. I remember my distress when I dressed my baby in an outfit that was too big and a hat that was too small. My husband and I fumbled around with the car seat straps and asked the nurse to check it, but she said she wasn't supposed to (liability reasons, I think). My husband wheeled me down with the baby strapped into the car seat in my lap, and we waited for him to bring the car around. I was overwhelmed with thoughts of my infinite love for my baby coupled with fears about my own inadequacy.
Perhaps my newborn baby girl was also dealing with her own existential crisis, but I believe her thoughts were more along these lines:
"Is The Nurse Coming With Us?"
No offense, parental units, but she seems to know way more about this baby business than you.
"Give Me My Bracelet Back"
It's hospital couture! You better be saving that for my baby book.
"This Hat Sucks"
Really, mom? A pink knitted cap with a butterfly? Methinks that's a little gender normative.
"I'm Going To Poop On This Outfit"
Yes, this outfit. You know, the white "what were you thinking" sleeper with hot air balloons on it that you hand-picked for this special occasion? Yeah, I'm going to crap in it. Then I'm going to poop on everything you love.
"Are You Kidding Me?"
Let me get this straight, adult-person. I've been expelled from the safety of your body into a bright, loud, cold place. I've been poked and prodded. I've had to teach you how to nurse me. And now we're leaving? Boss Baby does not approve.
"I Hate This Car Seat"
These straps are so uncomfortable. I shall drool on them.
"You Guys, There's 'Something' In My Belly Button"
I just realized I have a nubbin, and now I has a sad.
"Where The Booby And/Or Bottle At?"
Seriously, the only thing I like about being out of your cozy womb is the fact that there's a nipple thing around, and I want it in my mouth. Like, now. Don't think you can trick me with this pacifier.
"I Am Baby, Hear Me Roar!"
I have lungs. Now seems like the perfect opportunity to take them for a test spin. Can you hear me now?
"This Car Isn't Cutting It"
Time for a mini-van. Baby has needs. Like a DVD player because, and I don't know how, but I already love Elmo.
"Turn Up The Volume"
Ed Sheeran is my jam.
"Drive Faster!"
I have a need for speed!
Oh no, I just spit up. Too fast! Too fast!
"Yeah I'm Going To Sleep Now"
The vibrating motion of this vehicle is so delightfully soothing I just can't keep my eyes open.
"Oh, Hello!"
I missed you! Wait, I know this place. This is home.

WITH Easter approaching there is nothing like a good (often bracing) coastal walk and there is none better than the relatively short walk from fascinating Robin Hood's Bay to the fishing port of Whitby.
It is a 1 way walk and the assumption is that you are staying/or start the day in Whitby. It is best to walk from south to north. The short walk leaves plenty of time to explore Robin Hood's Bay.
There is a regular (X93 roughly every ½ hour, takes 15 minutes) bus service from Whitby to Robin Hood's Bay.
Stay on the bus at Robin Hoods Bay and head up to the next stop at Fylingthorpe. Fyling Hall and the folly known as The Pigsty is a few hundred metres up the road (to the west) but really I like starting here as it may be possible to spot some Coast to Coast walkers completing their 200 miles crossing of England. From the centre take Middlewood Road south for 300 metres to a lane on your let, turning in to a footpath as it drops down to the Hay. Turn right before the sands and enter lower Robin Hood's Bay as the smugglers did. It is worth spending some time wandering the streets and even taking in one of the cafes before heading up the road to start the main walk.
From the Upper Bay of Robin Hood's Bay the route follows the Cleveland Way and clings to the coastline. The footpath starts just south of the old railway line and heads initially east towards a headland. After a few hundred metres look to your right at the lovely views across Robin Hood's Bay and towards Ravenscar. The footpath follows the headland before dropping steeply (and climbing equally steeply) out from a stream which has cut into the cliffs. 1 mile further on Oakham Beck creates an even steeper drop and climb. This is typical of coastal walking and the effort is worth the rewards of dramatic views and bracing air. The cliffs here are gradually eroding away and will eventually eat up the existing path.
The path tracks the coast for a further 2 miles, past the old 'Fog Signal' before arriving at a large holiday park. Sadly the fog horn that used to blast out is now been de-commissioned but there is still a splendid old harbour house (now private residency). The holiday park is situated above a sandy beach (at low tide) which may be worth visiting if you have time. Having picked your way through the holiday park the imposing site of Whitby Abbey looms large ahead.
Whitby Abbey was (and still is) an impressive Benedictine Abbey which fell in to disrepair during the Dissolution in Henry v11 reign. It is worth visiting with an upgrade of visitor facilities planned to be completed by early April. The footpath keeps to the coast and passes on the coastal side of the abbey before cutting inland just before a TV satellite. The path joins Abbey Lane before arriving at St Mary's Church, a building probably as old as the abbey itself. From here steps drop steeply to Whitby town and the fine harbour.
- Jonathan Smith runs Where2walk, an outdoor business in the Yorkshire Dales. He has written his own book, the Dales 30, which describes the highest mountains in the Dales. He also runs one-day navigation courses for beginners and intermediates, and learn a skill, climb a hill weekends. To find out more details on any of the above and details of many more walks in the area visit where2walk.co.uk
Distance: Roughly 6.5 miles
Height to Climb: 300m (985 feet).
Start: NZ 943050. Drop off point for the bus in Fylingthorpe.
Difficulty: Medium: Some steep up and down on the coast but following a well worn path.
Refreshments: Take time in Robin Hood's Bay and there is a large choice of places to eat in Whitby.
Be Prepared: The route description and sketch map only provide a guide to the walk. You must take out and be able to read a map (O/S Explorer OL27) and in cloudy/misty conditions a compass (essential on this walk). You must also wear the correct clothing and footwear for the outdoors. Whilst every effort is made to provide accurate information, walkers head out at their own risk.
Please observe the Countryside Code and park sensibly.

Angel number 1253 is a combination of the messages of 1, 2, 5 and 3. Number 1 is a prompt for us to believe in ourselves and our talents. It is a reminder of the importance of self-leadership and assertiveness. The Angel number 2 reminds us of the importance of caring for others, serving them and remaining unselfish.
Number 12 is a balanced number, thanks to the presence of the 'go-getting' 1, and the 'sensitive' 2. 12 is a reminder for us to remember to care and serve others, even when we are striving towards achieving our own goals.
Angel Number 1253 Meaning
Number 5 resonates with opportunities and that in order to take them we may need to make some changes. The angels also serves as a reminder that we learn through experience and therefore should accept them openly.
Number 3 resonates with the messages of the guardian angels and indicates that they are close by, should we need them for guidance or support. 3 also serves as a prompt for us to remain optimistic, joyful and patient because we have all the skills and talents that we need in order to reach our goals, it will just take time to get there.
Angel number 125 blends the energies of 1, 2 and 5. It also acts as a prompt for us to accept the changes that are happening in our lives, and that we should expect and trust them to help us achieve our dreams.
As well as combining the attributes of 2, 5 and 3, number 253 is a sign that changes are going to bring about new opportunities that will allow us to express ourselves, and in doing so, we will better connect with our dreams and desires.
Angel Number 1253 is made up of the vibrations of 1, 2, 5 and 3. It is also a message from the angel numbers and Ascended masters that they want us to know they are close by and encouraging us to follow our life path. We are reminded that we should let go of negativity, so that we can accept new opportunities positively. Angel number 1253 is a sign that the changes we are going through are going to help us achieve our dreams, and that we should accept the changes with open arms.

Trey Songz Would Like To Pull A Watch The Throne With Drake
Jigga first did it with R Kelly and called the album the Best of Both World, hell even though its a different genre he went on to collabo with Linkin Park.
From there on many rappers wanted to do a best of both worlds type of album with rumours of many but only Bow Wow and Omarion dropped Face Off. Fast forward a few odd some years later and Trey Songz says he would like to do one with Drake. Yes a best of both worlds with his buddy Drizzy.
Speaking with TheSource.com, Trigga Trey explained that the musical chemistry is there and that the results would be "authentic." Trigga Trey says the resulting album would be "very authentic."
"When thinking along the lines of that, Drake is the first person that comes to mind that I am that musically comfortable with in that space," he said. "He is a friend of mine as well, and I think we can pull something off like that could sound very authentic."
Like with Jay and 'Ye, he said that he couldn't force a collaborative LP, and that it would have to come organically.
"I mean, you got to look at Kanye and Jay-Z and see how long it took them to do it, you know? So it has to be organic in whatever way it happens. It can't be a business decision and you can't look at it in a way of making it lucrative. I think it has to be something that you are definitely going into for music's sake. It has to be something real, because if it's not authentic you can hear it."

March was originally the first month of the year in the Roman calendar. It gets it's name from the Roman god Mars who was the god of war. Mars was not only a Roman god but also a name for a planet. Now the Romans used planets for the days of the week, and Mars is also found to be the third day of the week; dies martius, which is Tuesday, and is still used in some languages to this day, for instance Mardi Gras means Fat Tuesday and in the Spanish language Tuesday is called Martes.
March was when spring would begin to break as winter came to an end which is why it was originally the beginning of the Roman year. In the scene from Les Très Riches above, we see fields being prepared for planting, trees without foliage and a dragon on top of the castle; the Chateau de Lusignan, that seems to be blowing the grey clouds of winter back. The Focus of the scene is on one of the great inventions of the early middle ages, the heavy plough. In use from the 5th century in the west, these ploughs allowed more land to be tilled in a more effective manner. This would increase the ability to cultivate and grow food and as a result helped to increase the population.
The penitential season of Lent would usually fill up the month of March. In earlier times other names were used for the 40 days before Easter, but in the middle ages the English word for spring, (Lent) was adopted.
March 21 is the Spring Equinox which is officially the beginning of Spring. It occurs when the Sun is directly over the equator and as a result the daylight and nighttime hours are equal. Equinox comes from two latin words, aequus (equal) and nox (night).
I remember growing up in New Jersey, that we would have Spring Break near the end of March and right around the Equinox. Snow would be melting but we would be outside playing in T-shirts because it was so warm. You could smell the earth in the air, as frozen ground began to loosen.
Feasts from the General Roman Calendar for the month of March are:
3. Katharine Drexel (USA), Opt. Mem.
4. Second Sunday of Lent, Sunday
7. Perpetua and Felicity, Memorial
8. John of God, Opt. Mem.
9. Frances of Rome; St. John Ogilvie (Scotland), Opt. Mem.
11. Third Sunday of Lent, Sunday
17. Patrick, Opt. Mem.
18. Fourth Sunday of Lent, Sunday
19. Joseph, husband of Mary, Solemnity
23. Turibio de Mogrovejo, Opt. Mem.
25. Fifth Sunday of Lent, Sunday
26. Annunciation of the Lord, Solemnity

Great Staff but the square footage is not accurate
The difference in what we are quoted as the square footage of the unit and the actual footage is not accurate. Seemed like no big deals but it does add up to quite a big space when you add it all up.

SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO – The attorney for the family of an 18-month-old girl who died after falling from the 11th floor of a cruise ship believes the accident was preventable.
A Port Authority spokesman said the girl's grandfather lost his balance, leading to the fall aboard the Royal Caribbean cruise ship as it was docked in Puerto Rico.
However, attorney Michael Winkleman told the media Tuesday that the girl's grandfather thought there was a glass window in front of them.
According to Winkleman, the grandfather was playing with his granddaughter in the kids' water area. She wanted to bang on the glass like she did at her brother's hockey games, but there was no glass there to support her. She fell 150 feet and died from her injuries at an area hospital.
The grandfather described what happened to Winkleman in a tear-filled conversation in which he could barely speak, the attorney said.
"He takes her over to the windows, he thinks it's all glass, there's a wood railing there. He puts her up there thinking she's going to bang on the glass and it's going to be great. She goes to bang on the glass, and the next thing he knows, she's gone."
He doesn't believe the grandfather, who works for St. Joseph County, was negligent, and said the family is doing "terrible" in the aftermath of the little girl's death.
"If they knew that there was a risk—I mean if this was the Michael Jackson story where Michael Jackson is hanging the baby out there—clearly the parents [are] negligent, no question about it," Winkleman said. "But here, if you have a wall of glass, I don't think it's unreasonable to put a child there thinking there was glass there."
Winkleman believes there will be "significant blame" on the cruise line.
"I think it could have been prevented," Winkleman said. "I think it's still very early, so there's probably more questions that need to be answered."
The child's father is Alan Wiegand, an officer with the South Bend Police Department. Winkleman said the family was still in Puerto Rico and wanted to return home. They were still waiting for authorities to release the little girl's body.

Dear Guests!
Please be informed that starting from the 24TH of March 2020, Cosmos Moscow Hotel Reservation Dept. works daily from 9:00 to 21:00, by Moscow time.
3 December 2018
December 5, 2018 till January 8, 2019, the "Easy" exhibition by Anastasia Vepreva will be presented at VDNKh. The winner of the "Art" section of the "Taking Off" competition project and curator Sergey Popov will show the exposition in the halls of the "Cosmos" pavilion set aside for the "Taking Off" project.
The basis of the "Easy" project was the artist's thoughts on the fragility of life and historical memory. The exhibition consists of three parts - the earth, the clouds and the sky. Visitors will be able to reflect on the problem of historical disasters together with the author.
The first part of the exhibition will include graphic images of the author's ideas on the transition from the temporary to the eternal, about the earth as the center of catastrophes. In the second part of the exhibition, abstract images of the cloud world will be presented. The third and final part of the project is a large snow-white pedestal with cribs made of papier-mâché, symbolizing the realm of oblivion, floating and purity.

College playoff still lacking Texas flair
The College Football Playoff came to Arlington on Saturday, and it had quite an act to follow. A week earlier, AT&T Stadium hosted an event that drew three times as many total fans and featured more drama, in a fairer system to boot.
The only teams snubbed at the Texas high school football championships are private schools. And after the way Notre Dame played Saturday, that doesn't seem like such a drawback.
But there's an even bigger difference between these two football spectacles, and as the ceaseless conversation about how to improve the college system continues, one change in particular could increase its popularity and provide a dimension it has lacked.
What the CFP really needs is a team from Texas, isn't it?
Five years into this new era, the state with the nation's best high school postseason still hasn't had an entry in the college one, and maybe that's one of the reasons people are getting restless for change. Of 20 total entries in the four-team playoff so far, Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State and Oklahoma have hogged a staggering 15 of them.
The whole thing is starting to feel a bit repetitive, which might work for a league that can hype another meeting of LeBron James and Steph Curry but doesn't work as well when the most recognizable names are Nick Saban and Dabo Swinney.
College football always has been regional, but lately the most important games have been limited to fewer regions than ever. Another state that has yet to participate in the CFP despite a huge population overflowing with high school prospects?
That would be California, whose major programs are starting to make Texas' championship-starved colleges look dominant by comparison.
Expanding the playoff is one option to get more teams — and television markets — involved, and that might happen sooner than you expect. Even though the playoff's contract with ESPN runs through the 2024 season in its current form, there has been increased discussion about the stakeholders possibly making an adjustment halfway through the 12-year deal, which would be after next season.
If they choose to expand to eight teams, that could mean all five major conference champions would receive an automatic bid, and there would be room for an upstart such as Central Florida, which hasn't lost a game in two years but hasn't even sniffed a playoff bid.
That could work, as it theoretically could make the regular season even more important (every league championship counts!) while encouraging teams to play even more tough nonconference games. Sooner or later, this is where the sport is headed.
But in the meantime, either Tom Herman or Jimbo Fisher can take it upon themselves to solve the CFP's lack-of-Texas problem without any rule changes.
Both coaches had a tangible reason to believe Saturday their programs aren't too far off from belonging. Of the four teams featured in this year's CFP semifinals, the only one that entered Saturday with a loss was Oklahoma, which lost to Texas.
And of the other three semifinalists, which one had been pushed the hardest in the regular season?
That would have been Clemson, which escaped Texas A&M with a two-point victory back in September.
Clearly, Herman and Fisher have the kind of players who can at least hang with the best teams in the nation, and both of them are collecting more. On signing day earlier this month, Fisher hauled in the country's third-best recruiting class, per composite rankings by 247 Sports. Herman's class was ranked ninth.
For the Aggies and Longhorns, though, the problem never has been attracting talent or making money. The nation's two richest athletic departments have the right infrastructure and the right recruiting ground, but year after year have watched some CFP participants do more with less (Michigan State, Washington) while others get there with stars they either had in their backyards or on their campuses (J.T. Barrett, Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray).
Even if Herman and Fisher don't have to coach against each other, the race to the CFP is as intense as ever, because UT and A&M historically almost never have been great at the same time, and because whoever gets over the CFP hump first might be able to run the other one out of his job.
Maybe both will fail. Neither Clemson nor Alabama looks like it is going to cede its stranglehold on CFP invitations any time soon, and both Herman and Fisher coach in conferences that should feature plenty of challenges next year.
But the CFP needs improvement, and two coaches control the simplest solution.
This year, the playoff came to Texas.
Eventually, Herman and Fisher would like to flip that sentence around.

Biogeography is the study of where species live, and why. Traditionally, the "why" has been divided into "Ecological Biogeography" and "Historical Biogeography." Ecological Biogeography has focused on environmental and ecological controls on distribution, such as temperature and precipitation. Historical Biogeography has focused on distributions over phylogenies on geological timescales, primarily dealing with rare dispersal and vicariance events.
I believe that it is high time that these two traditions were re-integrated, not just in verbal models and interpretation, but with formal probabilistic models, using the computational tools of statistical phylogenetics. My work focuses on building these tools, and using them to answer Big Questions in evolution and biogeography.

We spent 5 days in Tegernsee last week, which is on Tegernsee. At 730 meters or so above sea level, it is a snow melt fed lake at the foot of the Alps. The water is insanely clear and hovered in temperature just above freezing.
I find it interesting on holiday when I come to a place like this and end up not spending as much time as I envisaged seeing the bit that interest me. The stay started with a walk from the train station down to the lake. There was a stop for coffee and then a stop on a bench along the shore to take in the view. After that it seemed our visits to the lake were fleeting, walking to get somewhere else. Well, except of course that very fleeting visit INTO the lake when we were at the sauna. A little sign inside said Tegernsee was 1 degree Celsius. We went in three times.
We had a slightly drunken walk along the lake at night after the afternoon sauna and a slow meander in the morning of our departure to burn some minutes. And then, it was all over. That thing I waited so long to see, was slowly disappearing behind the trees as we slowly rolled away in our train back to Munich.
I will try harder to stop take in and appreciate my surroundings. It's never a waste of time.

Do not wear cotton clothes. Wear something warm and synthetic underneath. Don't forget to dress in layers.
There will be a strong low moving up the coast on Friday Night, Saturday morning. The storm will dump heavy rain fall across the area. Minor Flooding is possible. Expect high seas and waves. As the storm moves up the coast, bombogenisus is expected to occur. Bombogenisus is the rapid intensification of a low pressure system. The criteria to be considered a meteorological bomb is to drop 1 millibar of pressure every hour. This means the winds in this storm will be very strong. Expect cold, wet conditions on Saturday.

We want to estimate the best parameters Theta for our model given some data D.
The MLE chooses
Theta_MLE = argmax_{Theta} P(D|Theta)
i.e. the parameters that maximize the likelihood.
The MAP chooses
Theta_MAP = argmax_{Theta} P(D|Theta) P(Theta) = arg_max{Theta} P(Theta|D)
So in contrast to the MLE, the MAP estimate considers the a-priori probability when choosing the most probable model parameters Theta as well.
Since P(D|Theta) P(Theta) is proportional to P(Theta|D), which is the posterior probability in Bayes theorem, it is also called the Maximum A-Posteriori estimate.
An important difference between both estimators is:
intro to MLE with pros/cons, part I
intro to MLE with pros/cons, part II

PM Pashinian Visits Tavush Textile LLC: Company Needs Specialists
Within the frameworks of his working visit to Tavush province, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian visited Tavush Textile LLC, Armenpress correspondent reports.
Accompanied by the company founder Suren Yeritsian, the PM toured the factory, got acquainted with the production capacities and the achievements. Yeritsian told the PM that the company faces a problem of qualified specialists. He said there has been an agreement with the college of Berd to provide tools, materials for preparing specialists, so that later they will work at the factory, but no progress has been achieved yet.
"This is a very important issue. The colleges should start working. The problem of our education system is that the student graduates, but there is no place for him/her to work. But now the education system should be put in a logic linked with practice", the PM said.
Tavush Textile LLC has been established in 2015 by businessman Suren Yeritsian. At present the company has productions in Choratan, Artsvaberd, Berd communities and service production unit in Movses community. Nearly 520 people work at the factory with an average 135.000 AMD salary.

The new Exit 14 interchange on Interstate 985 in South Hall, due to be ready in August, could honor the Atlanta Falcons, whose training facility and corporate offices are in Flowery Branch.
House Resolution 449, sponsored by all of Hall County's state representatives, proposes that the interchange be dedicated as the Atlanta Falcons Training Facility Interchange. The Falcons' training facility and corporate offices, located on Falcons Parkway near CW Davis Middle School and Flowery Branch High School, have been in the area since 1998.
The resolution states that the Falcons "have put the Hall County region on the international map" and "have served as a vital part of the fabric of the Flowery Branch and Hall County communities" for more than 20 years.
Tim Evans, vice president of economic development for the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce, alo said the Falcons have been both an economic driver and an overall benefit to the community.
"There is tremendous goodwill value that goes with sports bylines that begin 'Flowery Branch, GA,' and having many of the Falcons players, coaches and senior management and their families living in the community," Evans said in an email Wednesday. "Flowery Branch is a part of the NFL sports dialog among fans. Falcons players routinely support local charities and nonprofits through their giving and their time. The annual training camp in August draws Falcons fans far and wide to Hall County to support their team. And many small businesses in the community benefit from serving the business needs of the Falcons headquarters and training camp."
State Rep. Emory Dunahoo, R-Gainesville, whose district includes the facility, said the Falcons have also contributed to local nonprofits and helped county schools.
"They're like Jackson EMC or like Georgia Power. They're like a lot of the people behind the scenes that help to sponsor and educate the young people," Dunahoo said.
Neighboring Flowery Branch High shares the NFL team's mascot and colors.
The Falcons have also partnered with nonprofits including Habitat for Humanity and Sisu Integrated Early Learning, according to the resolution.
Neighboring Exit 12 at Spout Springs Road is dedicated in honor of Rankin Smith, the founding owner of the Falcons.
An Atlanta Falcons representative did not respond to requests for comment from The Times Wednesday.
Work on the $34 million interchange, a Georgia Department of Transportation project, began in 2017.

South Australia's Lincoln Gap Wind Farm will have a total generating capacity of more than 212 MW, producing enough energy to power 155,000 homes. It will offset some 680,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually and include 10MW of battery storage.
The CEFC has committed $200 million to Stages I and II of the Port Augusta project, representing its largest investment in a single wind farm development to date.
The CEFC committed $150 million in senior debt to Stage I of the project in 2017, and a further $50 million in 2018 as part of an innovative $160 million financing transaction for Stage II.
The Stage II finance involves Westbourne Capital participating as a mezzanine debt lender. The ability to fold mezzanine debt into finance for new build wind farms in this manner creates new investment opportunities for non-bank lenders to further support the growth of the renewable energy sector.
The Lincoln Gap Wind Farm has secured two long-term Large-Scale Generation Certificates with ERM Power and two long-term energy offtake agreements with Snowy Hydro.
The project is Australia's first greenfield wind development to feature an unsubsidised large-scale grid-connected battery, with developer Nexif Energy to use the Fluence industrial-grade Advancion energy storage platform at the development.
It will feature 59 Senvion 3.6M140 wind turbines and feed into the national electricity grid via the Electranet transmission network.
The wind farm is being built on farmland on a raised plateau next to the Eyre Highway. It is expected to be operational from mid-2019.

Are cold workouts the new hot yoga?
On a Friday afternoon in July, the temperature was around 35°Celsius. But inside Brrrn, the cool fitness studio in the Flatiron district of New York where the temperature is kept cool, it felt like a brisk November morning. "Fifty minutes, 50 degrees, 100 per cent," is one of its mottos, and the thermostat in the workout studio where the 50-minute classes are held is set at 50°Fahrenheit (10°Celsius).
Every boutique fitness studio these days has an origin story, and Brrrn is no exception. In 2013, Jimmy Martin, a personal trainer (and aspiring comic), had a client who, on one hot July morning, talked about her preference for working out in the cold. Martin was intrigued by the idea of cold workouts and eventually met Johnny Adamic, who became his partner in the venture. In 2018 they founded Brrrn, the spelling representing the sound of your teeth chattering.
People love debating the benefits of temperature on the efficacy of workouts. Bikram yoga has brought hot yoga to the masses, and Tracy Anderson keeps her studios around 95°F (35°C) with 75 per cent humidity. The idea is that heat allows the muscles to be more pliable and that sweating a lot is good for you.
Heated yoga, particularly in the winter months, can be addictive and sweating to the point of being completely soaked can feel cathartic. But sometimes I have headaches from dehydration by the time I get home, no matter how much water I drink before and after class.
Adherents for cold workouts say they can reduce dehydration and inflammation, and boost metabolism, so you burn more calories. And they believe the cold room helps improve endurance.
As with most wellness fads, both sides like to trot out evidence that their method is best. More-conservative sports medicine practitioners have said that extremes of hot or cold basically make your body feel as if it's doing more work.
For my purposes, I was trying out these workouts not as some science-based test but purely for the experience. In other words, I was hot, and the best way I could get myself to exercise was to do it somewhere that promised a little relief.
The Brrrn website suggests "dressing in light layers as if it were a crisp fall morning." I went in wearing leggings, a sports bra, a tank and a
long-sleeve cotton shirt that I immediately ditched, as did the dozen other people in the class that Friday afternoon. In fact, the 50-degree studio felt pretty comfortable.
Besides, once an instructor named Caitlyn started leading us through side stretches and jumping jacks in the warm-up, I was already starting to sweat. The class was HIIT (high-intensity interval training), and alternated between battle ropes and weights. We did variations of squats and lunges with our choice of dumbbells and slammed the heavy ropes down like a demonic version of double Dutch.
Each exercise was 30 seconds long, so nothing felt interminable or impossible, but there was also no break in movement for the 50 minutes of class. It was difficult, but easily modifiable. I took my friend Rich, who is in much better shape than I am, and he was challenged as much as I was.
Brrrn also has an infrared sauna that is kept at 140 and 158 degrees. It seats eight, and Rich and I booked a 40-minute session afterward, which may be a good incentive for going in the colder months. (And at $28 for a session, the infrared sauna is much cheaper than any others I've seen in New York.)
Rich and I returned a few days later to try Slide, Brrrn's other signature class. For this class, the studio is covered in panels the size of yoga mats but slippery. Covers are provided for your shoes, and you glide from one end to the other, sort of like speedskating.
Lateral movements always feel awkward, and being accident prone, I feared slipping and falling. I didn't, and the sliding got easier as class went on. When we weren't sliding on our feet, we did weighted exercises with SandBells and did variations of plank poses that resembled Pilates.
Like the HIT class, we did everything in short intervals with no breaks. It was a difficult 50 minutes, but it went by quickly.
The day after the slide class, I was surprised not to feel sore since I had used some long-dormant inner thigh muscles. Maybe it was science, or maybe it was just my own comfort level, but it turns out I loved working out in the cold. At the very least, I have found a more productive way to avoid the heat than movie theaters.
