Quite a few people have the impression that Al-Qaeda is going to get a free ride from the Obama administration. Others are insisting that if only the United States did not support Israel, it would not be an al-Qaeda target. And yet others are insisting that the Obama administration has decided to abandon Israel in order to appease extremists. None of that seems to be true. According to the CNN Transcript of a student question and answer period in Strasbourg, President Barack Obama said:
...And I think that it is important for Europe to understand that even though I'm now president and George Bush is no longer president, al Qaeda is still a threat, and that we cannot pretend somehow that because Barack Hussein Obama got elected president, suddenly, everything is going to be OK.
It is going to be a very difficult challenge. Al Qaeda is still bent on carrying out terrorist activity. It is-- al Qaeda is still bent on carrying out terrorist activity. It is, you know, don't fool yourselves because some people say, well, you know, if we changed our policies with respect to Israeli/Palestinian conflict or if we were more respectful towards the Muslim world, suddenly, these organizations would stop threatening us.
That's just not the case. It is true that we have to change our behavior in showing the Muslim world greater respect and changing our language and changing our tone. It is true that we have to work very hard for Israeli/Palestinian peace.
But what is also true is that these organizations are willing to kill innocent people because of a twisted distorted ideology and we, as democracies and as people who value human life, can't allow those organizations to operate.
That's what he said

1. Calls to 911 in San Francisco reporting domestic violence have dropped for three consecutive years, according to data from the Department of Emergency Management. Though calls reporting the crime have dropped 14 percent since 2016, it's unclear if the data reflects a significant drop in the incidence of domestic violence. While some victims may be accessing supportive resources sooner, advocates say those in immigrant communities may be reporting domestic violence less frequently over fears of being deported. Beverly Upton, executive director of the San Francisco Domestic Violence Consortium, said women's shelters and classes around the city are still full, and she does not believe domestic violence has dipped overall. – SF EXAMINER
2. Billie Eilish has announced a "one-of-a-kind performance" at the inaugural Apple Music Awards at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino's Apple Park. Fans were encouraged to sign up yesterday via a link on Apple.com for a chance to attend the event. (Eilish is receiving the award for Global Artist of the Year.) Her latest single, "everything i wanted," contains an allusion to the Golden Gate Bridge, and the single's artwork also appears to be a distorted representation of the iconic landmark. Attendees of the show will be prohibited from recording the event, but it will be live-streamed on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. – SF GATE
3. A San Francisco County Transit Authority survey is gauging drivers on their willingness to pay tolls for driving down busy streets. A "congestion pricing" system has long been considered in SoMa and downtown, with raised funds used to support other transit options. Though congestion pricing has been successful in several European cities, it is a tougher sell with voters, and experts believe a measure would be defeated if it showed up on a city ballot. Anyone who takes the 10-minute survey will be entered for a chance to win a Cal Academy membership or $110 Safeway gift card. – CURBED SF
4. Coastal fog is to blame for toxic mercury levels found in mountain lions in the Santa Cruz Mountains, according to a UC Santa Cruz study. Mercury enters the ecosystem through mining and coal-fired power plants from elsewhere in the world, acting as a "global pollutant," the study said. Mercury in the marine fog that blankets the Santa Cruz Mountains is absorbed by lichen, which makes it way up the food chain through deer and eventually to mountain lions. The increased mercury levels could interfere with mountain lion reproduction and survival in the coming decades. – SACRAMENTO BEE
5. San Francisco ranks 145th on WalletHub's ranking of America's safest 182 cities. The report considered 41 separate indicators of safety, including sex offenders per capita, drug poisoning deaths, earthquake risk level, and unemployment rate. San Francisco ranked below several other Northern California cities, including Fremont, Sacramento, and Modesto. It beat out Stockton at 146 and Oakland at 149. There was one positive distinction for San Francisco in the WalletHub report – the city ranks second only to New York City for fewest traffic fatalities per capita. – CBS13 SACRAMENTO
6. Mission Local has a curious profile of Nathalie Vanderlinden, a woman reading all of Marcel Proust's "Swann's Way" in BART stations. Vanderlinden says she picked up a copy of the first volume of Proust's "À la recherche du temps perdu" decades ago, but always had a hard time getting through it. Now, the line cook at Izakaya Rintaro schedules two-hour blocks of time to read the novel in French on subway platforms. She's preparing for a marathon reading of the book – which should take about 19 hours – in Brussels on Dec. 19. – MISSION LOCAL
7. The San Francisco Giants declined to offer outfielder Kevin Pillar a 2020 contract Monday, making the team's leader in home runs and RBIs a free agent. Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi said the move was "a baseball decision, not a financial decision," though Pillar was expected to make about $10 million in the 2020 season. The Giants will be going with a younger group of outfielders next season, including Mike Yastrzemski and Alex Dickerson. – ESPN

Alex, Frank and me had rented a bungalow very close to the ultra-scenic camping ground in Clachtoll perched above the sandy beach by the Atlantic Ocean. We spent two nights there before we took the ferry from Ullapool to Stornoway. The sunset was very beautiful to watch but the whole spot was a wee bit windy and consequently marvelling at the sea, cliffs and sun left us feeling quite cold before we retreated to our living room.
The program for the next day was simple and plain but nonetheless filled Frank and me with anticipation: We finally wanted to climb Foinaven, a hill whose ascent we had postponed for more than a decade because its remote location and lowly Corbett status had kept us from taking a day off from our Munro-bagging quest. Nuts. Indeed.
So, the three of us drove up the A838 to Gualin House where we parked our BMW at the hikers parking lot. We went back along the road for a few hundred metres past Gualin House and then struck a more or less direct line across the moor towards the north-west ridge of Ceann Garbh. On the way to the foot of the ridge both Alex and me each inadvertently sunk one of our booted legs into one of the many water holes and tiny pools the heathery land held in store for the inattentive hiker. Once on the first grassy than rocky shoulder of Craig na Claise Camaich and the ensuing ridge of Ceann Garbh we made good progress. Some of us went faster, one of us was not so quick. I struggled to keep up with Alex and Frank but finally they disappeared out of sight. Soon I was greeted by the whirring sound of Franks quadro-copter drone, indicating the lads were having a break at the summit. Then I joined them not without having inflicted some significant scratches and bruises to myself: When ascending the boulder field below the summit I had lost my footing and fallen sideways and backwards into a cavity between three large stones. Rats, beginners mistake.
From the summit of Ceann Garbh the view opened up and the ridge ahead swung into full view. It was a delightful walk over shattered white quartzite to the side ridge which boasts the perfect viewpoint of Gannu Mhor, Foinavens highest summit. What a beautiful hill and oh what a lot of crumbling stone. I was reminded of the limestone climber's and hiker's paradise of the Karwendel Mountains in Tyrol, which are much steeper and much more Alpine of course, but which also crumble beneath your feet and in your hands when you climb there. Even though the day was fine and sunny we did not linger all that long at Gannu Mhors summit but pressed on towards Point 869 from which the crumbling side ridge of A Cheir Gorm branches off to the north east.
Descending this absolutely shattered stony spine was fun, one could say, as it were, if you will. The shifting surface of the ridge did not instil much confidence in the reliability of the footholds we were constantly forced to look for on this path of sorts. Then we reached the spot where the path drops into Braigh a Choire Leachaich. Alex and me met Frank there who had decided to look for scrambling options on A Cheir Gorm but had called it a day very soon when the rocks kept crumbling in his hands. We descended/floated on scree towards the corrie floor. From there we followed the developing stream until we turned left and used a cut in the bounding ridge to switch to the next corrie, Coire Duail. Following a developing path, we descended to the lip of the upper corrie and then headed towards the Landrover track in Srath Dionard.
Once on the track it was a mere four or five miles of easy hiking towards Gualin House and our car. We accomplished this task in lazy style without too much effort, even though there are some minor ups and downs in the track, not to mention the final extra bonus of a stiff-ish 100m climb back towards the road. Well nothing in life is for free!
This hike proved to be exactly what we had hoped for: Great weather, stony ridge, marvellous views, nice scrambling. The Far North at its best! Only my bruised shoulders and knees kept hurting. Glad I did not sprain an ankle or break a leg when I pulled my stunt: An SMC Munroist Certificate does not prevent you from making stupid errors.

Stories from the Streets: The Key
We are called to a house on Elmwood Avenue, a boarding house, not known for the upscale clientele. We trudge up the stairs to one of the rooms, heavily fortified and completely unsanitary to find a 59-year-old male hunched over in an easy chair. His body is obviously wracked with pain.
"What's the matter?" I ask.
"I slept in my chair, now my back hurts," he responds.
"Get up and stretch," I say, a little annoyed.
"Can't. Broke my ribs," he groans.
"Well, sit and stretch," I suggest, a little less annoyed.
"Can't, broken vertebrae."
I take a closer look. The visor on his black baseball cap lays low on his forehead. A handsome man looks up at me through eyes filled with pain.
"Come on, we'll get you to the hospital," I say, embarrassed with my annoyed behavior.
"My doctor is at St. Farthest."
Here we go again. I begin to tell him there's no way I'm going to take him across the city, past two perfectly fine hospitals, when I see his medications. He is HIV+.
"How long have you had HIV?"
"Since '83. I'm an addict."
St. Farthest has a program where they do great work with AIDS and HIV+ patients. A cross-town trip won't kill me. We load him up the best we can—broken ribs and vertebrae are tough injuries to work around. He's a trooper, only complaining a little.
Inspiration comes from the strangest places. This time it's in the back of Rescue 1, two guys from different worlds talking about the Celtic and Laker years of the '80s. He's a Laker fan, me the Celtics. Doesn't matter, it's as if Magic and Bird are in the ambulance with us.
"I remember when I heard about Magic," I say, referring to his HIV diagnosis. "I thought he was a goner."
"I thought I was a goner," he smiles, and we reminisce. Magic Johnson. Larry Bird. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Robert "The Chief" Parish. Worthy, Johnson and all the rest. I feel like I'm with an old friend, just watching the game and having a beer.
Turns out he's a Vietnam-era, combat-wounded Special Forces veteran. He doesn't mention that, one of the security guards at St. Farthest served with him and tells me. I wonder if the folks at St. Farthest see a destitute former addict with HIV and fail to see the man under the visor.
I hope not. I nearly missed an opportunity to connect with another human being because of my preconceived ideas based on where he lived. I could spend a lifetime administering medications, bandaging and splinting, doing CPR and working trauma codes, and would never feel the satisfaction I get from simply being with another person and sharing our common humanity. EMS is more than a job—it's an everyday opportunity to grow as a person and provider. Paying attention to the people I treat is the key to understanding that.
Michael Morse, EMT-C, is captain of Rescue 5 in Providence, RI, and has served on the city's busiest engine, ladder and rescue squads as a firefighter, rescue technician and lieutenant during his 21-year career. He is the author of the books Rescuing Providence and Responding.

Avengers: Endgame Review
June 4, 2019
Usually every year or so, Marvel releases a couple of new movies. Although some of these movies are hit-or-miss, I'll be taking a look at what was by far my favorite movie of the year- Avengers: Endgame.
To start off, I'll be discussing some of the bad aspects of the film. Now I'm fine with long movies, but at three hours and two minutes of screentime, this one was definitely pushing it. However, such a long movie meant more screen time for action sequences and story development. There was also no end credits scene, which most people may view as a good thing, considering how long the movie is. But personally, I enjoy a sneak peek at the end of what's coming next.
Despite these few flaws, I thought the end of the movie was so satisfying and heartwarming to watch. The final fight scene with Thanos was amazing, and everyone's favorite Marvel characters appeared to take him on. Overall, I thought this movie was the perfect ending (unless they make more!) to the Avengers series and hopefully, this review will convince you to see it!
I give Avengers: Endgame a rating 9.5/10!

I am currently leading a team of 3 members with whom I regularly hold one-on-one meetings. One of them is a bit shy and I feel that the meetings aren't quite as valuable as the others.
I don't want to force him to be more talkative (maybe everything is ok!), but I want to make sure he can freely speak his mind on these meetings.
What are some tips on dealing with shy team members?

When we think of Leo Tolstoy, we tend to think of distinguished, perhaps tricky, Russian literature. Yes, Tolstoy's novels, including War and Peace and Anna Karenina, are some of the most influential ever written (and I certainly think they're worth reading).
However, one of Tolstoy's most exciting publications has passed by almost unnoticed: his "calendar of wisdom", which he thought of as his most important contribution to humanity.
A Calendar of Wisdom is Tolstoy's anthology of inspiring quotes and 'daily thoughts to nourish the soul'. With snippets of wisdom for every day of the year, we can have Tolstoy as our mentor through life's challenges, highs, and lows. Tolstoy wasn't an example of a perfect human being by any means, but he certainly had a way with words--both in shaping his own writing and finding the very best of others.
In 1885, Tolstoy outlined his project for A Calendar of Wisdom to his assistant, Vladimir Chertkov:
I know that it gives one great inner force, calmness, and happiness to communicate with such great thinkers as Socrates, Epictetus, Arnold, Parker. ... They tell us about what is most important for humanity, about the meaning of life and about virtue. ... I would like to create a book ... in which I could tell a person about his life, and about the Good Way of Life.
Tolstoy spent over fifteen years collecting quotes for his collection: an incredible feat in itself which underlines the variety and depth of wisdom in the book. The writer would often contemplate the value of his project, considering in his diary thoughts such as, "what can be more precious than to communicate every day with the wisest men of the world?"
It's worth considering this as the 186th anniversary of his birth is celebrated on September 9th 2014. We can read Tolstoy to help us overcome our feelings of anxiety, work out where we want to go in life, and find purpose and meaning. Diving into the philosophers, writers and spiritual guides which inspired Tolstoy to create his landmark texts seems like taking this one step further.
There are approximately five thoughts selected by Tolstoy for each day, including selections like the following:
On avoiding regret:
Do not regret the past. What is the use of regrets? The lie says that you should not regret. The truth says you should be filled with love. Push all sad memories away from you. Do not speak of the past. Live in the light of love, and all things will be given to you.
- Persian wisdom (January 27)
On being mindful:
A wise person thinks more about life than about death.
- Benedictus Spinoza (June 24)
On gaining control of your thoughts:
Do not allow yourself to be infected by the mood or spirit of those who abuse you; do not step onto their path.
- Marcus Aurelius (August 5)
On remembering what's important:
When you feel the desire for power, you should stay in solitude for some time.
- Henry David Thoreau (August 27)
Whether we want to understand what influenced Tolstoy, or simply find superb quotes to influence ourselves, our work, and our lives, these 'daily thoughts to nourish the soul' are worth having nearby.
The first-time translation is "A Calendar of Wisdom: Daily Thoughts to Nourish the Soul, Written and Selected from the World's Sacred Texts" by Peter Sekirin and is published by Scribner.
As a final note, here's Tolstoy's wish for readers of A Calendar of Wisdom, as included in his introduction:
I hope that the readers of this book may experience the same benevolent and elevating feeling which I have experienced when I was working on its creation, and which I experience again and again, when I reread it every day, working on the enlargement and improvement of the previous edition.

Dale Wakefield
Minister for Tourism and Culture
Somewhere in slow-moving waters around the Northern Territory, there's a giant, tagged barramundi blissfully unaware that it's worth a cool million dollars.
For the fisher folk that flock for the thrill of the chase, the annual Million Dollar Fish competition adds a million extra reasons to fish here … but, really, diehard anglers only need one – the barra!
"The Million Dollar Fish competition is a great initiative that has helped to boost the NT's reputation as the best place in the world to stay, play and fish and lure more visitors to the Territory," Acting Minister for Tourism and Culture, Dale Wakefield said.
"With 2.5 months of competition to go and the Million Dollar Fish still on the loose, Tourism NT has released the top three Top End Hot Spots based on confirmed catches across all three seasons."
Corroboree Billabong is part of the Mary River wetland system and has remained a consistent hot spot across all three seasons.
Billabong fishing is one of the most visually stunning fishing experiences in the Top End, offering waterlily-lined pools of water teeming with birds and, of course, fish. These landlocked parcels of fishing nirvana are not as dependent on weather or tide as some of the other fishing options available in the Territory and can be accessed nearly year round.
Darwin Harbour's mangrove lined estuary. It's five times the area of Sydney Harbour and contains a world class fishery right on the doorstep of the capital, so it's not surprising it makes the list. If you're chasing barra, try the estuaries and mangroves surrounding the Harbour or the tidal creeks of Shoal Bay and Bynoe Harbour.
And, as an added bonus, you get million dollar views of Darwin and surrounds for free.
Daly River, home to The Barra Classic and Barra National Fishing competitions; was the top fishing hot spot for Season two; and already this year two $10,000 barra have been caught in it's waters. It has also proven to be the 'hot spot' of the competition for Darwin local George Voukolus, who bagged $10,000 wins in both Season Two and Season Three.
Season three of the Million Dollar Fish competition runs from 1 October 2017 until the end of February 2018 and participants must register online at www.milliondollarfish.com.au for their chance to win a prized barra or one of the sponsors' prizes.
For information on NT fishing regulations and best practice catch and release methods download the free Northern Territory (NT) Fishing Mate app on your smart phone.

Swimming pool installation can present one critical issue: water leakage on the hose system, meaning a lot of time and efforts to identify the problem and to fix the damage (expensive). Thereby FITT developed a new and reliable swimming pool hose: FITT B-Active.
The new flexible spiral hose for pools offers double protection.
Cracks and resulting water loss are prevented thanks to the new D-shape spiral reinforcement (patent pending), which improves resistance to cracking and crushing.
In addition to increased mechanical strength, the hose offers superior chemical resistance. With its new interior film, it guarantees an excellent shield against chlorine (patented solution), as well as acidic environments.
The superior performances of FITT B-Active are granted by the combination of three special patents:
o Spiral protection Barrier- a special patented film coating the PVC reinforcement spiral in order to bestow exclusive anti-cracking properties on the hose and excellent resistance to permanent mechanical stresses as expansions and compressions.
o Chlorine Defense System- total protection from oxidizing and abrasive action of chlorinated water.
o D-Shape - new geometry of the reinforcement spiral (patent pending), which by increasing the annular rigidity of the hose (+ 60%) improves resistance to cracking and crushing.
This innovation absorbs mechanical stress on the installed hose, exerted by the weight of the earth above.

Kerrie Roberts and Kristy Bainbridge have opened the 50th branch of wholefoods retailer The Source Bulk Foods
Armed with veggie chips, kombucha, raw honey, organic quinoa and sugar-free gummy bears, two Blue Mountains women are spearheading a revolution.
The quiet uprising aims to change the shopping habits of thousands, encouraging the environmentally insensitive, the extravagant and the thoughtless to temper wastefulness and change inconsiderate habits that have insidiously crept into mainstream shopping over generations.
For others, it is a welcome alternative to grocery shopping they have long craved.
Long-time locals, Kerrie Roberts and Kristy Bainbridge opened the 50th branch of Australian wholefoods retailer The Source Bulk Foods in the Town Centre Arcade outside Katoomba Coles in March.
Committed to supporting Australian suppliers and sustainable, ethical production, The Source stocks more than 500 whole foods and household goods, with a focus on organic, vegan, gluten free and paleo friendly products sold in bulk at competitive prices.
As well as a wide range of granolas and mueslis, The Source has three varieties of kombucha on tap; cooking oils; dish washing detergent, soap and shampoo; different salts; organic nuts; veggie chips; organic teas; 100 per cent nut butters made onsite; dried fruits and berries; polenta, rice, food proteins, aluminium-free baking powder and various flours; gluten-free vegetable pastas among its range of more than 500 products.
There is even a "naughty corner'' with stashes of sugar-free lollies, dark chocolate-covered nuts and organic berries, with a vegan chocolate Easter special on the way.
Founded in Mullumbimby on the NSW Far North Coast in 2012 by husband and wife Paul Medeiros and Emma Smith, who left corporate Sydney life in 2007 to start a family and operate a fruit and veg shop, The Source Bulk Foods focused on zero waste and sustainable consumption.
In the past two years, it had sourced a fully compostable coffee bag (including the zip lock and air valve), saved more than 50 million plastic bags from circulation, kept 300,000kg of packaging waste from landfill, planted 75,000 trees and helped employ hundreds of people in Madagascar, donated more than $75,000 to ocean conservation organisations through reusable water bottles sales and supported children of the Outback.
The Source Bulk Foods was "a business with heart'', Mr Medeiros said.
"Our whole mantra is about going back to basics. We know our customers are very savvy and want to know where their food is from, which is something we really focus on delivering.''
The Blue Mountains mother/daughter team discovered The Source Bulk Foods when they visited the Rouse Hill store about 18 months ago.
Impressed, Kristy immediately made inquiries about the possibility of establishing a local store.
"We just loved the concept: the aisles brimming with healthy foods and the zero-waste mission, which is something mum and I are both very passionate about.''
The timing was ideal for Kristy, 34, who had worked in the corporate arena of commercial sport for several years and was on maternity leave with her second daughter.
She had begun a master's degree in business, motivated to embark on a solo venture, "I knew I wanted a change and to do something more closely linked with my local community. This ticked all the boxes for me".
For real estate agent Kerrie, The Source combined her top passions.
"I love food and cooking and everything about it.
"I try to live a healthy lifestyle and eat healthy food, and I've tried to pass that on to my children. Now I want to pass that on to the grandkids. I want them to realise how important healthy, nutritional food is to your body.''
The Source provided an alternate shopping outlet for people with allergies, food intolerances and dietary requirements as well as anyone who wanted to make more conscious shopping choices.
"It's about going back to basics, eating the rainbow of food and being interested in where your food comes from,'' Kerrie, a mother-of-four and grandmother of three (soon to be four), said.
The retailer's "package-it-yourself" shopping concept meant that customers could scoop produce into brown paper and calico bags, containers from home or bought instore, meaning less packaging going to landfill.
"It's all about providing good old-fashioned grocery shopping, the modern way,'' Kristy said. "It's a style of grocery shopping your grandparents would be comfortable and familiar with.''
"If you bake your own cookies they might have five ingredients in them. If you buy a packet from a supermarket, they might have twenty, including hidden sugars and preservatives,'' Kristy said.
``It's confusing and overwhelming.''
The pair also wanted to help reduce waste and were encouraged by the local community, which had long been receptive to healthy eating, zero waste concepts and conservation principals.
Rather than considering similar shops as competitors, they viewed them as like-minded colleagues which complemented each other and offered customers something different.
Kerrie and Kristy dispelled the perception that bulk food shopping was more expensive than mainstream supermarket shopping.
"It's not,'' Kristy said. "You buy as much or as little as you actually need.
"For instance, if you need a certain unique ingredient for a recipe and go to the supermarket, you might have to buy a 200 gram bag of it but only use 40 grams. The leftover sits in your pantry and eventually gets thrown out, whereas you can shop in the store and purchase the exact amount you need, which may only cost you 40 cents and you have nothing left or wasted.''
The duo looked forward to expanding their knowledge about wholefoods by learning from customers, researching products and sharing their knowledge about products and their uses.
"I'm always asking customers `What are you making?' or `What do you use that product for?','' Kristy said. ``We are always learning from our customers.''
Kristy and Kerrie will also soon hold regular workshops in the adjoining community centre covering topics such as zero-waste practices, health and wellbeing, essential oils and cooking classes.
The Source Bulk Foods, The Town Centre Arcade, Katoomba St, Katoomba, is open from 9am to 5pm Monday to Saturday and 10am to 4pm Sunday.

Microsoft is announcing today that its Skype Translator feature of the Skype messaging, voice, and video-calling app is now capable of translating speech into and out of Russian. Now Skype Translator can be said to speak a total of nine languages. This comes after Arabic speech translation support arrived in March.
Skype Translator received lots of attention when Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella demonstrated it during Recode's Code conference in 2014. The service relies on deep learning, a type of artificial intelligence that involves training artificial neural networks on lots of data (recordings of speech, in this case) and then making inferences about new data. After coming up with a few text candidates in the first language, the software chooses the top candidate, removes words like "um" and "ah," translates the text based on previous translations, and provides a speech recording of the translated text. It gets better over time with user feedback, along with human transcriptions. (Google also uses deep learning for certain parts of Google Translate.)
"Russian is the eighth most popular spoken language in the world and our Russian-speaking customers around the world have always been particularly enthusiastic about Skype Translator," the Skype team wrote in a blog post. "For months, we've received many requests to include Russian in Skype Translator's audio language portfolio, and we are so excited to finally cross this milestone, opening up one of the most dialectically complex languages on earth to anyone with a Skype account."
Skype Translator is still in preview and is only available for Windows. To turn on Skype Translator for Russian, click the globe button in the chat window with a given user, and you can select that language for both chat messages and spoken language.

Aug 1 (Reuters) - Shortly after Wednesday's debate, Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker's campaign jumped on rival Joe Biden's slip in calling him the "future president" to raise campaign dollars.
The Cory 2020 campaign capitalized on the moment with a paid Facebook ad that read: "We think Joe Biden summed it up best: future President Cory Booker. Get your 'Future President' gear today," and directed voters to Booker's online merchandise store to buy a $4.00 pack of two vinyl stickers quoting Biden.
Booker, who clashed on stage with Democratic front-runner Biden over criminal justice, was following a playbook for viral merchandising seen on previous debate nights.
Before Tuesday's debate was over, the Bernie Sander's campaign was already promoting "I wrote the damn bill" stickers, after the senator's confrontation with Representative Tim Ryan over Sanders' "Medicare for All" plan.
But Sanders' national press secretary Briahna Joy Gray was quick to point out the moment was not planned, tweeting on Tuesday night: "We don't have 'I wrote the damn bill' t shirts ready to go (because it wasn't a scripted line)."
The Ryan campaign also rushed to put its candidate's response to another skirmish with Sanders over climate change solutions on stickers which read: "You don't have to yell."
Senator Kamala Harris' campaign, which said it has taken in close to a half-million dollars from online sales of merchandise, also capitalized on her exchange with Biden in the first round of Democratic debates by selling T-shirts reading "That Little Girl Was Me" - a reference to Harris telling Biden that she benefited from a busing program when she was a young student.
The Democratic candidates aren't the only ones raising money through merchandise inspired by viral moments.
President Donald Trump's campaign director Brad Parscale said on Twitter last week that the campaign had raised nearly $500,000 from selling packs of 10 branded plastic straws for $15, after several cities have limited or banned single-use plastic straws over environmental concerns.
The Trump campaign, which has consistently outspent Democratic rivals on Facebook advertising, paid for a slew of ads on the social media platform promoting the red straws over the last two weeks.
"Liberal paper straws don't work! Stand with Trump and get the OFFICIAL Trump Straws," read one post. "Make Straws Great Again," read another. (Reporting by Elizabeth Culliford; Editing by Cynthia Osterman)

Twelve Things This Book Will Do For You
This section was included in the original 1936 edition but shortened to eight items in the revised 1981 edition, omitting points 6 to 8 and 11, largely due to the original being written during the Great Depression (Carnegie lost most of his savings in the stock market crash of 1929)[3] and those points no longer seeming appropriate for modern audiences upon revision. This section was merely a single page list, which preceded the main content of the book, showing a prospective reader what to expect from it.
- Get you out of a mental rut, give you new thoughts, new visions, new ambitions.
- Enable you to make friends quickly and easily.
- Increase your popularity.
- Help you to win people to your way of thinking.
- Increase your influence, your prestige, your ability to get things done.
- Enable you to win new clients, new customers.
- Increase your earning power.
- Make you a better salesman, a better executive.
- Help you to handle complaints, avoid arguments, keep your human contacts smooth and pleasant.
- Make you a better speaker, a more entertaining conversationalist.
- Make the principles of psychology easy for you to apply in your daily contacts.
- Help you to arouse enthusiasm among your associates.
The book has six major sections. The core principles of each section are quoted below.
Fundamental Techniques in Handling People
- Don't criticize, condemn, or complain.
- Give honest and sincere appreciation.
- Arouse in the other person an eager want.
Six Ways to Make People Like You
- Become genuinely interested in other people.
- Smile.
- Remember that a person's name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language.
- Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves.
- Talk in terms of the other person's interest.
- Make the other person feel important – and do it sincerely.
Twelve Ways to Win People to Your Way of Thinking
- The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it.
- Show respect for the other person's opinions. Never say "You're Wrong."
- If you're wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically.
- Begin in a friendly way.
- Start with questions to which the other person will answer yes.
- Let the other person do a great deal of the talking.
- Let the other person feel the idea is his or hers.
- Try honestly to see things from the other person's point of view.
- Be sympathetic with the other person's ideas and desires.
- Appeal to the nobler motives.
- Dramatize your ideas.
- Throw down a challenge.
Be a Leader: How to Change People Without Giving Offense or Arousing Resentment

- Talk about your own mistakes before criticizing the other person.
- Ask questions instead of giving direct orders.
- Let the other person save face.
- Praise every improvement.
- Give the other person a fine reputation to live up to.
- Use encouragement. Make the fault seem easy to correct.
- Make the other person happy about doing what you suggest.
Letters That Produced Miraculous Results
This section was included in the original 1936 edition but omitted from the revised 1981 edition.
- In this chapter, notably the shortest in the book, Carnegie analyzes two letters and describes how to appeal to someone's vanity with the term "do me a favor" as opposed to directly asking for something which does not offer the same feeling of importance to the recipient of the request.
Seven Rules For Making Your Home Life Happier
This section was included in the original 1936 edition but omitted from the revised 1981 edition.
- Don't nag.
- Don't try to make your partner over.
- Don't criticize.
- Give honest appreciation.
- Pay little attentions.
- Be courteous.
- Read a good book on the sexual side of marriage.

Carson City School Board has vacancy
The Carson City School Board is accepting applications for a new trustee for District 6.

You take out a wallet, show an old looking picture of your grandfather (or magic professor – or whoever you want it to be) begin the story… this is my grandpops… he was always able to guess a card that someone would select (the performer then removes 5 cards from the wallet and displays the faces)…he would bet money on it and he always won, ALWAYS! (the spectator names the mentally selected card and the performer reveals that grandpops knew it by showing them proof!
It is a simple and quick trick and it is really impressive to laypeople. The method is not new and there are many tricks similar to this, but Legacy V2 is packaged and presented in a way that has character, appeal and a great story.
With your purchase of Legacy V2, you get a gimmicked wallet, five specially printed playing cards (that are not Bicycle backs) and everything you need to prove that Grandpops knew in advance the spectator's selection. You also get an online link to an instructional video that is taught by Andi Gladwin, which can be downloaded to your Vanishing Inc. account.
The video is a touch over 13 minutes long and starts with a performance of the trick. Andi's teaching is straight and to the point. There is no reason that the video needs to be longer and the instructions are well organized and easy to follow. There is no appearance by the creators; Jamie Badman or Colin Miller. You also get a downloadable 18 page PDF containing Legacy Bonus Ideas which include some bells and whistles to the core routine and also a written out more detailed patter than is presented in the instructional video.
The ad copy states:
"From the creators of Heirloom, one of the best-selling tricks of the last decade, comes a miracle that fits in your pocket.
Having been out of stock for years, we are thrilled to be offering the updated edition of this landmark trick. This new edition includes video instructions and brand-new performances, to give you the best learning experience possible. Plus, you get all of the gorgeous props, of course.
Legacy is the kind of trick we search for as magicians. It's self-contained, can be carried with you at all times, and is engaging from start to finish. Your audience gets to know YOU and YOUR MAGIC during the effect.
The effect is simple: a story of your grandfather's greatest magic trick, performed using his original props. You remove a poker hand from his old wallet and have someone think of one of the cards in the hand. You then show that even from the grave, your grandfather knew exactly which one the participant freely picked.
- Easy to do
- Self-working
- Includes all props (including the custom leather wallet)
This is a blockbuster effect that you will be proud to carry with you.
Package includes wallet, cards, and video instructions."
As stated above, the trick is very easy – super simple to perform. Anyone can do it. The routine is enhanced by a new idea by Joshua Jay, but I do not think this is "self-working." Of course, there has been much debate over the term, but I would say that there is no sleight of hand needed. The performer does need to remove the reveal card, but it does not qualify as a move. The trick can be reset almost instantly and is great for table hopping so long as you don't have the same spectator view the trick twice. Think restaurant workers! If you do perform this trick more than once to the same spectator, then they will instantly know and understand the method and the amazement will instantly be gone.
I personally love this trick, the materials and the story with it. It is fun and easy and you can carry it with you without taking up too much pocket space. It really slays lay people. It's not going to fool your magician buddies, but I promise you that your friends and spectators will love this.
Thanks to Murphy's Magic for asking me to provide an honest review of this great product.

Jewellery Designer Cindy Chao Makes Her Masterpiece London Debut
This month, Taiwanese jewellery designer Cindy Chao will be participating at Masterpiece London, the world's leading cross-collecting show, set within the grounds of the historic Royal Hospital Chelsea.
Cindy—whose sculpturally amazing pieces under the label Cindy Chao The Art Jewel have fetched astronomical prices on auction—is the first Asian jeweller to be invited to the show, and she'll share the spotlight with a carefully curated list of exhibitors that offer art, design, furniture and jewellery, from antiquity to present day.
So what can visitors to Masterpiece London look forward to? Read on to find out.
1/5 A first look at the Black Label Masterpiece collection
Cindy Chao's one-of-a-kind Black Label Masterpiece collection for 2018 will be unveiled at Masterpiece London, providing visitors a rare chance to experience the museum-calibre art jewel in person. "Inspired by one of my trips to Canada last year, where I was fully immersed in nature's endless wonder, the new collection will allow collectors and connoisseurs to experience the world in and through my eyes," says Cindy.
The ultimate expression of her savoir-faire as a sculptor and artist, The Black Label Masterpieces are the most exclusive of the designer's creations. Each is named, numbered and dated. Original, innovative and technically challenging, each one requires more than 10,000 hours to complete.

2/5 Witness exquisite craftsmanship up close
Inspired by architecture, sculpture, travel and nature, Cindy Chao's team of jewellery artists sculpt all of her jewellery by hand, producing organic forms that are as vibrant as real life. Her philosophy is to create high jewellery as pieces of art, and through this, to redefine the perception of high jewellery.
Cindy Chao's jewelled sculptures reflect light and colour from every angle, with no surface left untouched by gems. Each work of art is created using the delicate craft of 18th century artisan wax moulding, which requires decades of jewellery expertise.
3/5 Appreciate the iconic pieces on display
In 2016, Queen Elizabeth II marked her 90th birthday with a commemorative publication that showcases her life and reign, including the various organisations that have received accolades and honours, including the Queen's Awards.
Cindy Chao The Art Jewel was one of the organisations selected to appear in the publication. In line with this, Cindy is bringing her iconic Majestic Beauty Fan, which she designed in collaboration with Forevermark as a tribute to the monarch. The gorgeous piece comes in 18K white gold set with 2,399 diamonds weighing 310.27 carats, and includes a detachable butterfly brooch.

4/5 An opportunity to hobnob with royalty
High profile attendees—including Princess Alexandra, Sarah, the Duchess of York, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie of York—attend the show every year. There's also a chance you might bump into actor Eddie Redmayne, composer Andrew Lloyd Webber or sculptor Anish Kapoor. VIP guests have access to various events, including the show's opening cocktail, exclusive dinners, masterclasses, and book signings.

Journalists and academics bear the brunt of the massive crackdown on freedom of expression in Turkey. Scores of them are currently subject to criminal investigations or behind bars. This website is dedicated to tracking the legal process against them.
Put on trial for his words, "Why did you kill these kids, explain," Altan says verdict is momentous in terms of freedom of expression
Imprisoned novelist and journalist Ahmet Altan, on April 26, was acquitted of "insulting the president" at the end of the seventh and final hearing of a trial in which the accusation was based on his remarks in an interview he gave in April 2015 to the news website Grihat, headlined "Saraylarda oturabilmek için gencecik çocukları öldürüyorlar" (They're killing children so that they can live in palaces).
Convicted by an Istanbul court of "attempting to overthrow the Constitutional order" in February, Altan gave his defense statement to the Istanbul 21st Criminal Court of First Instance during Thursday's hearing via the courtroom video-conferencing system SEGBIS from the Silivri Prison, where he is currently imprisoned for life.
P24 monitored the hearing in the courtroom.
Altan began his defense statement by saying that the accusation of "insult" has lately turned into a shield behind which politicians like to hide in order to silence all kinds of criticism. Altan continued: "To be able to use this as a shield, they are knowingly making the notion of 'insult' ambiguous. Sadly, so many prosecutors have been contributing to this effort."
Touching upon the difference between the concepts of criticism and insult, Altan said, "Every criticism hurts the standing of its subject. […] But we do not consider book criticisms as insult, because the subject of criticism is the work. This is what differentiates it from insult."
In his defense statement on Thursday, Altan also made reference to a 2017 Supreme Court of Appeals judgment in his favor concerning a separate case. Altan was handed down 11 months and 20 days in prison for insulting President Erdoğan in his January 2012 column "Devlet Yardakçılığı ve Ahlak" ("State Complicity and Morality"), about the infamous Roboskî bombing in 2011 where 34 civilians were killed. The court had commuted the prison sentence to a fine of TL 7,000. Altan's lawyers had appealed that verdict at the Supreme Court of Appeals, which ruled in September 2017 that the elements of the "insult" offense were not present in the case file, overruling the trial court's decision.
"The Supreme Court of Appeals does not regard the phrase, 'Why did you kill these kids, explain,' to be an insult, because this phrase is aimed at an action," Altan said in his defense statement on Thursday.
"I request that you render a judgment that befits universal rule of law, clearly defined criteria, and freedom of expression," Altan concluded his statement.
Addressing the court after the completion of Altan's statement, lawyer Figen Albuga Çalıkuşu read out the following lines, which refer to the European Court of Human Rights' judgment in the case Handyside v. The United Kingdom:
"Freedom of expression constitutes one of the essential foundations of democracy. According to the European Court of Human Rights, freedom of expression is also applicable to information or ideas that offend, shock or disturb the State or any sector of the population. Such are the demands of pluralism, tolerance and broadmindedness. Without these, there will be no democratic society."
Çalıkuşu noted that the judgment she referred to had also been referenced in the past by a lawyer representing Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in a free expression trial against the politician.
Çalıkuşu said Ahmet Altan exercised his right to express his opinion and his right to criticism in the interview for which he is accused, adding that his remarks were not defamatory.
Çalıkuşu requested Altan's acquittal.
Following the defense statements, the court announced its verdict, in which it held that despite Altan's words "being of a severely critical or disturbing nature, [his] words did not constitute a substantial act of offense or insult that could openly damage [one's] reputation," ruling for Altan's acquittal.
Altan said following the announcement of the verdict that it was a momentous judgment in terms of freedom of expression.
"The court has rendered a decision that protects freedom of expression and right to criticism and one that befits universal standards," lawyer Çalıkuşu also commented.

Clinic Services
Click on a service we offer below.
Chiropractors are health professionals concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and overall health. There is an emphasis on manual treatments including spinal adjustment and other joint and soft-tissue manipulation. Our Chiropractors believe in the value of working in conjunction with mainstream medicine. They place a strong emphasis on patient education, post injury rehabilitation, and lifestyle advice. They strive to incorporate these components into each of their appointments, tailoring treatment to the needs of each patient.
Massage therapy is the manipulation of soft tissues of the body including, muscles, connective tissues, tendons, ligaments and joints. Massage Therapy is a clinically-oriented healthcare option that helps alleviate the discomfort associated with everyday and occupational stresses, muscular over-use and many chronic pain conditions and promote relaxation and well-being. Therapeutic massage can ease tension and reduce pain, and can be used on its own or as an adjunct to other manual therapies.
Traditional Chinese Medicine / Acupuncture
Coming from the Traditional Chinese Medicine healthcare system, acupuncture is a
common modality used to create a neuroendocrine response. Your neuroendocrine
system refers to the aspects of the brain and body that regulate chemicals responsible
for hormone balance, mood, immune strength, digestive health, stress, inflammation,
and more. Acupuncture is the use of hair-thin, stainless steel needles or pins that are
inserted into the body along specific channels. The channels are associated with
internal organs like the liver, spleen, and heart, and with specific tissues like blood
vessels, lymphatic vessels, and fascia. The needles interact with the flow through these
channels, and stimulates an electrochemical change which affects the physiology of the
associated organs and tissues.
Acupuncture alone has been shown to have efficacious results in treating conditions
such as depression, anxiety disorders, insomnia, pain, gas and bloating, IBS, Crohn's
disease, skin conditions, sciatica, arthritis, headaches, menstrual issues, weight
gain/loss, and addictions.
Our acupuncturist has extensive training in Nutrition & Diet Therapy, Moxibustion,
Cupping, and Acupuncture. As a holistic practice, Traditional Chinese Medicine
encompasses all of these modalities in each session, according to the client's individual
health goals and needs.
Counselling is the skilled and principled use of relationship to facilitate self- knowledge, emotional acceptance and growth and the optimal development of personal resources. The overall aim of counsellors is to provide an opportunity for people to work towards living more satisfyingly and resourcefully. Counselling relationships will vary according to need but may be concerned with developmental issues, addressing and resolving specific problems, making decisions, coping with crisis, developing personal insights and knowledge, working through feelings of inner conflict or improving relationships with others.
Prenatal Education
Some expectant parents have special needs with regards to childbirth preparation. These needs may include a quickly approaching due date, medical concerns that make attending a regular class difficult, or even a challenging schedule leading up to baby's arrival. Private prenatal classes allow for added flexibility.
Our classes are designed to meet expectant parents' individual needs, delivered in a flexible, casual environment. This format is perfect for all kinds of parents: first time parents who prefer one to one learning, parents who may have a partner who works out of town and cannot attend traditional classroom style courses, or parents who work shifts. Customized classes are also a good option for parents who just want a refresher on certain topics. Parents will learn everything they need to know to feel confident in their birth choices, coping skills and postpartum planning.
Pelvic Floor and Core Coach
Pelvic Floor and Core retraining has been developed to help people (particularly women) overcome problems with posture, incontinence, back, and pelvic pain. Working with a Core trainer should be the first line of defence, before surgical intervention, for stress, urge and mixed incontinence. Many people with pelvic and back pain, have pelvic floor dysfunction, but specifically weak or tight muscles which require retraining. The pelvic floor muscles are a group of muscles that attach to the front, back and sides of the pelvic bone and sacrum. They are like a hammock or a sling that supports many of our vital organs. Core, balance, and postural training focuses on strengthening the muscles deep in the body, improving your overall stability and support.
Personal Training and Nutrition Coaching
Certified Personal Trainers and Nutrition Coaches oversee an individual's fitness program in a private setting. Personal trainers help people pursue and/or maintain a healthy lifestyle, educate people about the correct physical exercise and healthy living practices for their body, and they strive to help people achieve their personal health and fitness goals. Certified Trainers/Coaches must posses a knowledge of human anatomy and the concepts of functional exercise, exercise science, and basic nutrition. They must also have the ability to successfully assess and screen their clients, and then use their assessments to design nutrition and physical fitness programs tailored to their clients' specific needs, wants, and goals.
Infant Massage Class
Learn how to give your baby a relaxing massage! In our class, you will learn various techniques to help your baby relax, decrease colic crying, improve digestion, and improve bonding.
This class is designed for babies who are not walking yet. Each class will include both instruction and massage time as well as fun songs to sing with baby while massaging. Please Bring a blanket for baby to lie on.
The class will be taught by Alison Edmonds, Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) and mother of two young boys.
Pre-Natal Yoga
This eight-week series will prepare body and mind for the amazing work of birth and motherhood.
Our classes each have a stretching and strengthening focus in order to achieve optimal body alignment for pregnancy. This course is designed to give you, the tools to recognize and practice aligned movement in order to help you experience LESS pain and MORE comfort. We will explore the importance of soft tissue release, squatting properly and often, positions to help baby move through the pelvis, and safe training of the core/pelvic floor muscles through pregnancy and post-partum.

Birth hasn't changed but our lifestyles sure have! Get off your tailbone and join us on the mat for some restorative movement and meditation.
Rehab Series - Core Stability 1
This series focuses on core stability training to allow the low back to function more efficiently and pain-free. In order to use your arms and legs effectively and powerfully you need a strong core as a base of support. Sometimes pain or a prior history of injury can result in the body not being able to activate the correct muscles to provide core stability. This causes a persistent vulnerability with a limited capacity to perform rehab exercises between painful episodes.
The exercises that have been chosen are designed to maximize muscle recruitment while minimizing compressive loads through the spine. This ensures the exercises are safe and tolerated even by patients with significant history of back pain, disc injuries, or persistent weakness post-partum. Whether you are looking to avoid future injury or rehabilitate an existing injury this class is for you!

Supreme x Rimowa luggage is hype AF
This week, hypebeasts around the world were greeted with the opportunity to look even better while travelling (perhaps to meet other hypebeasts around the world).
Venerable German company Rimowa—best known for its super-high-quality aluminium luggage—has teamed up with NYC-based Supreme on a tight capsule collection of roller bags.
There are two versions of Rimowa's Topas roller: a carry-on and one sized for check-in. Both feature aluminium bodies, rolling wheels, TSA combo locks, and two internal dividers. The smaller version clocks in at 45 litres of capacity and a price tag of AED6,000.
The larger size ups things to 82 litres, and retails for AED6,800. Both are all but guaranteed to inspire line-ups when they drop tomorrow on April 12 at Supreme stores in New York, London, and Paris—and again when they hit select Rimowa stores on April 14.
This being a Supreme collab, you can also bet that they'll set out faster than you can blink, then hit the resale market at insane markups. If you want in, our advice is to get shopping early and keep trying.
The dual-date drop is a blessing. Good luck.

How To Make Jelly Bean Vodka
Making homemade jelly bean vodka is a great way of using up leftover easter candy. It is easier to make a custom jelly bean vodka than you may think. Combine different flavors or go with a intense single flavor for your custom jelly bean vodka recipe.
Flavored vodkas are so simple and inexpensive to make. Jelly beans, skittles, candy canes and starburst candies are just a few of the many options you can use to flavor your vodka.
Start by separating out the different flavors into separate jars or containers. I use canning jars because I have so many!! Visit my canning page for all my other canning posts. I would recommend a 4:1 candy to vodka ratio. But that is totally up to you.
Add the vodka to the jars.
I would not recommend using a high end vodka because you are totally changing the flavor of the vodka. In truth, I used the cheapest vodka I could find.
Jelly Bean Vodka
Let the colors and flavor dissolve off the candy.
These skittles took about 10 minutes.
You may have different results with different candies.
The idea is that the color and the distinct flavor of the candy will dissolve and infuse itself into the vodka.
Give the jars a swirl to distribute the cold and flavor.
Use a mesh stainer lined with paper towel to stain out the larger candy bits. This is a drink and no one like to chew on their drink. Get those bits out.

The Hunt: Movie Review
The Hunt: Movie Review
Cast: Mads Mikkelsen, Annika Wedderkopp
Director: Thomas Vinterberg
Fresh from success at the New Zealand International Film Festival last year, Danish film The Hunt finally gets a release here.
It's the story of Lucas (Mikklesen in another award winning turn), a teacher, who leads a solitary life and is wrestling with the fall-out from a break up as he tries to get time with his son.
Living in a small knit Danish community, Lucas ends up working at a kindergarten to make ends meet - but that's where the trouble starts as he is accused by Klara (Wedderkopp) of exposing himself to her. With investigations into his conduct and alleged behaviour, the small community begins to slowly turn on him, with devastating emotional effects.
I'd heard dark things about The Hunt - about how it got unrelentingly bleak and so to be honest, I had been expecting the worst from this tale of kindergarten teacher Lucas whose life is irrevocably changed after one of the children in his charge lies and falsely tells his boss he's been sexually abusing them.
What I couldn't have been expecting is just how utterly compelling and totally claustrophobic, this latest film from the director of Festen, Thomas Vinterberg was going to be. It's no wonder Mikkelsen won the Best actor at Cannes this year for his portrayal of Lucas, the innocent man who's damned before his peers without any shred of evidence.
But what's winning about this film is how utterly plausible it is in places as it taps into the small minded community mentality and how non-hysterically it plays out.
Mikkelsen and youngster Annika Wedderkopp (who plays Klara who makes the claim) are completely the stars of the piece thanks to underplayed, subtly sly and riveting performances. Sure, it's an old story and one which we've all seen shades of before, but it's these two actors who imbue their time on screen with such utter devotion that you can't help but be swept up by it - despite accusations of how it really could happen in this day and age.
Vinterberg also needs commendation for his directing and crafting of the tale - Lucas goes from being part of a gang of friends whose bond stretches years back to a haunted and vilified ghost of a man, whose (admittedly frustrating) refusal to totally refute the claims seems like madness. No doubt his self belief is what carries him through but as they say, it's darkest before the dawn, and Mikkelsen's subtle performance is a cinematic tour de force.
Similarly, Wedderkopp, a cute blond moppet (a direct contrast to Mikkelsen's frog like facials) plays a girl who doesn't understand the truth of her lie and who's caught up in a world she can't possibly understand. The scenes where she tells her mother that it didn't happen and her mother comes back telling her it did are gobsmackingly heart breaking and cut an emotional quick as well as hint at a reality of what could play out. Vinterberg's hit a fine form here and a few nerves as well (judging by the horrified yelp of one woman at the screening's ending during the Film Festival) and makes The Hunt as dark as anything you're likely to experience.
The Hunt is horrifyingly good, heart in the mouth drama that challenges but showcases acting genius and really does need to be seen up on the big screen while you have the chance.
