"When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"

We were a little surprised that Steven Taylor was left on the bench in Saturday's terrible 4-0 defeat at Stoke City.
Steven Taylor – sweating on start for next game
The fact that Alan Pardew preferred Sol Campbell to Steven was a little bit of a surprise to us, but we suppose it was Sol's extra experience that got him the nod, but whether Sol can get many more games in the first team this season is a good question.
Sol was caught on the wrong side of Jonathan Walters for the Stoke opening goal, but other than that Sol seemed safe enough at the back.
Steven Taylor will be wondering whether he's done enough in training to get a start against Wolves a week tomorrow, when we expect Alan Pardew to revert to the usual 4-4-2 attacking formation Newcastle play in.
None of this 3-5-2 formation.
This is what Steven Taylor said today:
"I'm fit for selection. I'm just waiting for my chance – it's as simple as that." "Every game, you have to see what side the gaffer picks. That's all I can do."
"We can't get carried away. We've got to knuckle down and take it a game at a time." "We have to be ready for a battle, because it's coming towards the end of the season."
"It's going to be tough against Wolves. They're getting some good results, and we can't treat them lightly, even though it's at St James' Park." "We have to sort our home form out. Hopefully, we'll be OK."
"We'll take it one game at a time. All we're thinking of is getting three more points on the board."
In order to get some additional match practice, Steven Taylor had 45 minutes for the Reserves earlier in the week, in their 2-1 loss to Manchester United.
Steven wanted to play a bit longer, but James Perch managed to get himself sent off in the game, and put further pressure on the Newcastle squad with his three match suspension.
The Newcastle squad is already a little threadbare, because of injuries and suspensions, of course.
Steven talked about his run-out earlier this week:
"I didn't really have much to do, so I was quite happy with that," "It would have been nice to have had more of a workout, but I think with Perchie getting sent off, they wanted to bring me off at half-time."
Whatever the team selection is a week tomorrow, we have to hope that Leon Best, Jose Enrique and Stephen Ireland are all fit and ready to play, and that will help Newcastle get the win the team needs so badly.
Comments welcome.

I've been reading your articles for months now and just wanted to say how badly written they are.
Your sentence structures and inability to punctuate correctly, coupled with your insistence on calling everyone by their first name and referring to yourself as 'we' is something a 9 year old boy might do.
Alan Pardew if you ever read this or visit this site please take this advice
Tim Krul in goal please !
Steve Harper is a good guy but a mediocre Keeper
and sentiment wont win us any points
I cant believe that Tim was dropped because of his so called bad kicking ! Its usually excellent , what a poor excuse.
Krul is one of the top 5 Keepers in this country .
Harper is steady …sometimes , and he looks the part but will never pull off the spectacular to win you 3 points
Krul pulls saves off you would never ever believe he could get to …those saves win games.
Harper very very rarely does that.
Krul is always on his toes with great concentration
Harper seems stiff and slow ..reaction times are poor
Tim Krul ..PLEASE !
If you don't believe the afore mentioned just watch Harpers last few games ..from the time he took the Keepers jersey back we have had abject failure ,
I dont think the players have that much confidence in him in goal ..But as a senior pro who is going to tell him ?
The Players all know who the best Keeper is .
Have you been drinking son ? Ed runs a great site you would miss it if it went, would you?
And picking someone up on punctuation and Grammar is something you would expect from a person suffering with depression … cheer up son, Its only football .
We All make wee mistakes when writing …And Ed is consistently excellent …Dont knock him He's working hard on this so's we all have someplace to air our views, and it keeps us together, and we share info. As long as the message gets across what more do you want?.
Your post is the meanest daftest post I have ever read on here.

Online dating is something I've considered a few times in the past few years. I was really excited (and nervous) to try it about a year ago, but then decided to wait it out a little bit, for various reasons. I did sign up for HowAboutWe.com, but because I didn't pay, the website was basically useless. If you're unfamiliar with the website, instead of just browsing through pictures and profiles, you browse through possible dates. I liked this idea because it took some pressure off, and involved much less judgment (in my opinion). Well, after discovering the fellow I was interested in got a girlfriend, I decided to take the plunge into the online world of dating. That was yesterday. This is today: I paid for a month at HowAboutWe.com.
I hope you'll join my in my adventures (or misadventures) in the online world of dating. In only a few short hours, I've already discovered a few things about the dating pool.
- The amount of people who don't want children is shockingly low.
- Instant turn-off date ideas all involve some variation of "…and see where it leads" or "…and see what happens" (I'm pretty sure this means you are looking to hook up, and should probably just get a tinder).
- I thought it would be a lot easier to make a move online than it is in person, and I was very, very wrong. Hitting the "I'm intrigued" button is absolutely horrifying.
Once I paid, I put up several flattering photos of myself and updated my profile information. I don't have the slightest idea how far away I should date, so I guess I'll have to feel that out some. And even though I haven't been able to hit "I'm intrigued" for anyone yet, I have found myself pushing this little blue heart on their speed-dating section. I have no idea what happens when you push the heart, but it's something!
I did add 10 men to my favorites (apparently early 30's is my thing, though I do have a couple a touch younger than I). Maybe tomorrow I'll take it a step further. I guess I'll see you then!
Oh…and apparently the blue heart is just a sneaky version of "intrigued".

Reviews of Tafika
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Tafika review
Tafika is a wonderful camp with exceptional service and attention to detail. The guides in particular really seemed to do their best to ensure a fun and enjoyable experience for their guests.
Heather really looked after us and made sure that we got everything we needed.
The rooms are excellent and provide lots of privacy.
7 days at Tafika
Good to return and it lived up to our expectations. We were keen to fly to Banguela to see the Shoebill. We were lucky enough to see 15 wild dogs close to camp one morning. Leopard sightings still high with 12 in 5 days.
The trip to the swamps was fantastic including seeing a Shoebill in the wild as well as the tame one. Other birding was amazing bringing our Tafika bird count to 160+. Thousands of black Lechwe around the airstrip also an experience.
Sharing the Coppinger home experience.
They are special moments in life when one meets special people that show such kindness, love and loyalty to people of the local area and the Coppinger family, John, Carol, Jenny and Bryan Jackson do just that. I felt privileged to have met a true family team of friends, excellent guides based in a beautiful location. Special thanks to Heather who essentially planted the seed to visit NOrth Luangwa and Tafika.
The game viewing was excellent, the chalets very comfortable and it was great to be able to view the elephants every day at such close quarter in such a relaxed manner in and around camp. Meeting Norman Carr himself on my first visit to the valley back in 1991 was indeed a wonderful privilege, meeting and sharing this beautiful area with the Coppingers was on a level par to that.
I cannot speak highly enough of my experiences here. Thank you indeed to everyone, what a credit you are to South Luangwa and long may you continue to do something that you all love.
Tafika review
Traditionally built accommodation of wooden pillars and reed roof and walls. Some cross ventilation but no an or AC. Well separated and spacious with excellent showers. Very hot in the afternoons, relieved by many showers. Too hot to sit out on loungers under a tree to view the river.
Camp visited by its of birds and animals. Drive areas overlap significantly with Nsefu. We were unaware of just how close they are, so it was rather like having eight days in the same area. Despite this, all the drives were different. Tafika is outside the National Park, and so you must be out by 8pm. Not usually a problem but on one occasion we had to leave stalking lions to ensure that we were out in time.
We did one walk which was limited by elephants but still enjoyable. Guides or a couple of trips were not as good as we had come to expect, but for the rest of the time there were very good - especially Amon and Alex. Virtually all our drives were shared with other guests, not always sharing our interests. As in Nsefu, the vehicles are uncovered, so hat and suncream vital.
Family run camp with shared host/hostess duties. We sometimes felt a little excluded, maybe because all the other guests were returnees. Heather, Jenny and Brian all very good. Food excellent, especially the fresh bread and muffins. Only camp to offer vegetarian option as standard.
Well-run family safari camp
Well-run family safari camp. The owners, John and Carol, and their daughter Jennie, are very involved with the day-to-day running of the camp, together with Brian, Heather & Rona.
The accommodations are very nice, with large beds and large outdoor bathrooms. Some are on the river bank, others are set back a little. The camp area is well-guarded for guest safety, as elephants, monkeys, baboons and various antelopes regularly visit the grounds.
A big plus is that each vehicle used for game drives only takes 4 people which is nice. Each guest is supplied with a s/s water bottle which is refilled before each game drive. The morning game drive was sometimes a bit long (5 hours) from 0600 - 1100 which took it into the hotter part of the day. The game area is not as extensive as on the other side of the river, but we still managed to see a lot of wildlife, including some huge herds of buffalo, and lots of family groups of elephants.
The food is good and plentiful.
Best lodge/camp in Africa!
Everyone exceptionally friendly so after the first day you felt you were staying with old friends. Comfortable rooms.
Excellent food which couldn't be faulted.
Best vehicles (including bikes!) in Africa.
Very helpful at tailoring activities to our needs.
Perfect in every way and we can't wait to go back.
Cycling with John was fantastic.
We liked the concept of rebuilding the camp each year with local people.
You felt throughout that the motivation was "how can I improve guests' experiences" not "how much profit can we make".
Tafika review
The is an excellent safari camp, the Coppinger family run this safari lodge with great expertise, I cannot think of one thing they need to change for the better.
We had good home made food, met some very nice people, had some great experiences and by the end of our stay (5 nights) we felt like part of the family. I could highly recommend Tafika.
The guiding was pretty good also (hello Lloyd).
High standards of service and guiding.
Owners Carol and John have a real hands on approach and expect a high standard from their staff. They get it. Service was excellent and with a friendly, relaxed and personal approach. Food was very good and rooms were well equipped. No electricity means no fans and in temperatures of 35 degrees sleeping was occasionally a problem. The wet sarongs were an essential piece of equipment!
Our guide, Lloyd was excellent - quiet and unassuming but very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. His knowledge of animal behaviour resulted in lots of wonderful sightings.
The position of the lodge outside the park meant that each trip began with a 15 minute drive to the gate at the beginning and end of each game drive and this becomes a bit repetitive after a while.
see previous comments [Ed: see belew]Read more about the whole safari
A wonderful safari experience at Tafika
A perfect stay at a camp that seemed to capture the spirit of a safari.
Huts were superb, we loved the rustic feel of them. Guiding was first class and we saw everything we had hoped for and a lot more - 19 wild dogs.
We would recommend Tafika without hesitation and hope to return sometime.

American City Shame: Rats, Cockroaches, Crime & Democrats
Article originally appeared at MEDIUM.
Despite the media's laughable and psychotic persistence to create another racial hate crime by the evil orange man — President Trump is turning 'Elijah Cummings' Baltimore" into a national referendum… highlighting the disgraceful 3rd world conditions of Democrat-run cities across this nation.
This problem is SO out of control, the fact that the entire news industry has ignored it for decades is just further confirmation that in 2019, we have no news industry.
The Baltimore Sun, of course, being a typical media appendage of the Democratic Party, immediately provided us with the predictable, yet stunningly childish response "Better to have a few rats than to be one"
What? That's your official journalistic response? Do these numbskulls not understand we have VAST amounts of evidence? Even Bernie Sanders has compared Baltimore to a Third World country.
Seriously, Democrat voters, LOOK at the conditions Democrat politicians are willing to overlook:
- People defecating in the streets of San Francisco, the homeless capital of the world,
- or the medieval diseases of Los Angeles
- Or the violent, masked anarchists of Portland
Almost the entire west coast has devolved into a disease-ridden, rat-infested liberal utopia of criminals and perverts.
And sadly, these Democrat-poisoned cities are not the exception, but the rule. We have notorious crime-riddled Chicago… Communist-run New York City… Philly, KC, Dallas, Houston, Cincy, Nashville, Washington DC, Louisville, Atlanta… and on and on
And not so insignificant — all of these places have the worst schools in America with third-world literacy rates, while simultaneously and unbelievably being home to the most powerful teachers' unions in America. Disgraceful.
These Democrat-controlled cities are stains on America and an embarrassment to all decent citizens.
Godspeed, President Trump.
Listen to Mayor Catherine Pugh say "we need to take this s**t down" and "Whoa you can smell the rats!"

Sorry Sly-Cooper fans, but it looks like were going to have to wait to enjoy Sony's next triple A platforming title. Sony has officially stated that Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time is going to be delayed to 2013 at today's Gamescom Press Conference.
Reason for the delay was not clarified, and now were not sure if this is going to have any affect on the release of the demo that was supposed to come out with Ratchet and Clank collection later this month.
However, the good news is that Sony have stated that if you buy Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time for PS3, you will also get the PS Vita version for free thanks to the Cross-Buy promotion. This promotion was announced earlier at Gamescom. This promotion also allows you to buy other PS3 games, and get PS Vita ones for free if they're are cross-play titles such as Playsation All-Stars.

SNAPSHOT: My new bike
Posted by Administrator under Found
No Comments
As you know, I spend a lot of time taking pictures of other people's bicycles. I rarely take pictures of my own bikes, as I feel that the result would be a contrived picture that would make me cringe every time I see it.
However, with my main bike (the overly enhance mountain bike which is great for the back roads of NH) in the shop undergoing a major overall, I have decided to take my new cruiser out for a few spins. While I was adjusting the seats and making it ready for a ride yesterday, I realized how photogenic my new bike was and was inspired to take her picture up against the back of the barn.

Former state lawmaker accused of stealing millions takes the stand
More testimony Monday in the trial of a former state lawmaker from Frankfort accused of stealing as much as $3 million.
53-year-old Robert Lindell took the stand in his own defense.
He's accused of stealing money from two elderly women and tax evasion.
Monday he was questioned about accounts he managed.
Lindell claims he used funds from a trust to pay for personal things like credit card payments and his children's tuition.
But, he says he was able to do so because he transferred his own assets into the accounts.
The defense brought up artwork and wine Lindell claims to have transferred ownership of to the trusts.
He says he did not steal from the two women but should have done a better job keeping things separated instead of co-mingling assets.
The trial continues Tuesday.

Hyderabad: Apollo Hospital Performs rare liver transplant on an infant
Hyderabad: Apollo Hospitals said it performed a "rare" liver transplant on a six and half month baby boy weighing 5.5 kgs.
The Liver Transplant team at the hospital at Jubilee Hills here led by Dr Manish C Varma, Chief Transplant Surgeon performed the critical surgery on the baby boy, who was suffering from Biliary atresia.
The transplant was carried out by taking a slice of the baby's father's liver on October 13. The infant is doing well and has since been discharged, according to a release from Apollo Hospitals.
Biliary atresia is a congenital liver condition where the bile cannot drain from the liver through the bile ducts to the intestines. Bile helps to digest fats in the body and also carries waste products from the liver to the intestines for excretion. It occurs in 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 15,000 children.
If they are not treated they become malnourished and are easy prey for infections and complications of cirrhosis and a majority of them do not survive beyond 2 years.
This patient Nitesh had developed jaundice a few weeks after his birth. His parents consulted local doctors in Bhimavaram, from where they hail. After diagnosis in Apollo, Nitesh was found to be suffering from very high jaundice and had already developed liver cirrhosis, he was very small weighing just about 5.5 kgs.
"The donor (father) was discharged on sixth day after surgery and the baby was discharged after 2 weeks of transplant. Nitesh will need immunosuppressants all his life, but his overall growth will be normal. There will not be any long term limitations to his growth, learning and life expectancy," Dr Manish Varma added.

Having been a user of the Membrane type of keyboards since I started using computers (age about 6), it was an amazing moment to be given the absolutely brilliant MK750 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard from Coolermaster to try out and review.
First impressions matter with keyboards because the market is flooded with so many variants. Keyboards now range from a few dollars, and function only to relay the words you are typing to the computer you are using, to the expensive keyboard capable of full customisation, lightning fast response time, lighting options and high end materials.
Standing out matters and I believe CoolerMaster has achieved a standout in their choice of packaging. Just by moving subtly away from the black and red or black and grey gaming combination which has become the norm of late, they have secured a unique corner of the market. The deep purple and black draws your eye, even just for interest sake. The superior quality and outstanding features draw you in to look further. If you are looking for a keyboard which looks a little different to the others around it, or you enjoy a keyboard you can customize to be uniquely yours, then the CoolerMaster MK750 will be a great choice!
So whats in the box?
The keyboard, 1.8m cable, wrist support, keycaps with keycap puller and instruction manual.
The Keyboard. This is a plastic based, sleek yet stylishly simplistic design, featuring an anodized cobalt-aluminium top plate, which provides a high end look and feel to this great looking keyboard. The keys are raised, giving a floating switch effect to the board, and allowing the RGB lighting to be more visible. There is also a RGB light-bar around the outside of the keyboard, which harmonises beautifully with the lighting selection of the keys. Dedicated media keys have become a necessity on keyboards, and are of course included on the MK750. The design of the keyboard is tapered slightly from back to front, allowing seamless integration with the wrist support, and is able to be further adjusted using the flip out feet situated at the back.
The 1.8m detachable braided cable is a USB type C, and is managed at the top of the keyboard with built in cable management.
The detachable, magnetic wrist support is a selling feature all on its own. Gone are the use of flimsy plastic clips which inevitably snap off and render useless a hard plastic guard, which you weren't totally convinced was comfortable anyway! The wrist support is a memory foam filled PU leather guard which is soft but still firm enough to give good support. Having a magnetic connection to snap to the front of the keyboard makes adding and removing a total breeze. The support adds a certain degree of higher end luxury to the MK750.
Then we have the extra doubleshot keycaps. There are 9 extra keycaps included with the MK750, and they are in the stunning purple which features on the box design. These are WASD keys, ESC key and the 4 arrow keys. This allows the user to decide if they want an all black keyboard, or if contrasting keys are an option they wish to embrace. Also included is a key-cap puller which is designed to remove the keys without damaging them. A great addition to the custom feel of this keyboard.
The manual is written in a range of languages, and provides detailed instructions on how to change the light display settings on the keyboard.
There is software for the keyboard but it is not included in the box. The software allows you to change the colours, make macros, key mapping and save different profiles so you can have multiple keyboard setups for different applications. NOTE: The keyboard is Plug and Play so you don't have to have it installed first, BUT it is most certainly required for any customisations you perform. The software can be found on the CoolerMaster website, or by clicking the following link: Coolermaster MK750
The difference was instantly noticeable. This particular keyboard featured the Cherry MX RED switches which are designed specifically for gaming, with an actuation force of just 45g, and an actuation point (the distance it takes for the keyboard to register the key-stroke) of just 2mm. Cherry MX RED switches are linear, which means they offer a smooth and consistent key-stroke. Since the MX Red also lack the tactile bump in the middle of the switch, they are fast and responsive keys, but as they do not provide the feedback the bump creates, they are less suited to typists. Out of all of the Cherry MX switches, the RED are the quietest, and offer a 50 million keystroke lifespan per key. The Cherry MX switches that Coolermaster use in their MK750 range of keyboards are Red, Brown and Blue. As mentioned, the Red switches are designed for gaming. Brown switches are your "All Rounder" switches which are good for gaming and typing, and the Blue switches are the loudest and best suited for typing applications.
Unlike the Membrane based Keyboards which are fairly quiet, Mechanical Keyboards are a lot more noisy, giving a distinct clicky noise sounding something like an old typewriter. It was this noise that at first put me off Mechanical Keyboards. I didn't want the "click click" sounds to come through on my YouTube videos, but after testing and using one for about a week I found it wasn't too bad and I quickly learned that I don't have to hit the the keys to get a response. Just out of interest, you can also buy key damping O-Rings or foam that can help reduce the noise levels. I didn't have any so I cant comment on how effective they are but if the clicking sound is something that is an issue, there are ways to help reduce it.
The other very noticeable difference was the total customization of the MK750. You can change the LED lights under the keys to any of the 10 preset patterns, from having a solid color to a rainbow effect.
Keyboard Customisation
I mentioned earlier the customisation of the MK750, well lets dive into that more! The first thing you will notice when you plug your MK750 in is the flashy rainbow colours sliding across your Keyboard, as seen below:
These lights can be changed to up to 14 different programmed options, including Static, Rainbow Wave, Reactive Fade, Rain, Colour Cycle and also Custom. Custom allows you to setup your own colours, which can be individual keys or groups of keys. Changing between the different LED settings can be done "on the fly" by simply holding the 'FN' key and pressing F5.
The second customization is Macros. Macro key programming is especially useful in gaming, as you can have keys programmed to perform a particular special function. I am not just talking about pressing 'W' to move forward. I am talking about a key that when pressed, can look for a certain type of mob/creature/player and then auto target it. By setting this macro to a key, the player can target automatically even when looking the other way! VERY neat! I should point out that Macros are not just for gaming. You may want to try and set up a special key for your software which you can press to help get your work done more quickly and easily.
The third is key mapping. This may seem like macros, but unlike macros which are programmed to do multiple things, key mapping is just setting up your keyboard so you can reassign keys to function as other keys OR you can simply disable keys so that when they are pressed they wont work!
The final part of the customization is Profiles. Once you have setup your LED lights, Macros and/or Mapping, you can then save those settings to a profile. This is great, as you can then select that profile and use it at any time. You can save up to 4 profiles, so you can swap your layouts between different games or maybe have gaming profiles and work profiles, switching between them as your computer usage changes. All you have to do is hold down the 'FN' key and press either 1, 2, 3 or 4 keys to switch between profiles. You can also rename the profiles for easier identification when you edit them.
For all the techies out there that need to see the specifications, well, here you go! Go here then go to the Download page for the .PDF of the Spec Sheet
So, overall my impressions of the CoolerMaster Masterkeys MK750 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is … It is amazing!
Being plug and play makes it so simple to get up and running. The level of customisation the keyboard has is astounding, from changing the LED lights, making macros, remapping the keys and then saving them as separate profiles. The ease in which you can switch between the profiles is great! I know these things have been done on other keyboards but the CoolerMaster software makes the process an enjoyment and not a chore.
The wrist support is very comfortable and being magnetic, can be easily added or removed without the worry of snapping off the clips holding it to the keyboard.
The addition of the media keys is also a nice touch to any keyboard.
It is hard to pick any real faults with the MK750, but if I had to, I would probably fault the louder noise of the key press of Mechanical keyboards compared to the Membrane Keyboards. To some the sound is like classical music to their ears, to others a total distraction. For me, after a week of using the MK750 the noise is now hardly a concern. The performance of the switches far outweighs the difference I found in the noise, because these keys are far superior to the key types I have been used to up to now.
IF I was to give a rating out of 10, it is a clear 9!
*A big thank you to our friends over at CoolerMaster for sending us the MK750 for review.

In an alternate universe, A Star Is Born swept the Oscars on Sunday night. Bradley Cooper hit a triple with wins for Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Adapted Screenplay, Lady Gaga won two Oscars—Best Original Song and Best Actress—and the film took the stage at the end of the night to receive Best Picture, pulling off the first "Big Five" win since The Silence of the Lambs. Alas, we do not live in that universe.
I'll never quite understand how A Star Is Born's Oscar campaign tanked so spectacularly. The film was anointed the frontrunner back in September, which can be harmful (see: The Social Network and La La Land), but even as films like Roma and Green Book gained traction, A Star Is Born remained the big, bold, romantic, and immaculately executed film that exemplified Hollywood filmmaking at its best. And yet, the film won just a single Oscar for Best Original Song.
Nevertheless, great films have a way of rising to the top over time, and I expect A Star Is Born is going to age quite well. To that end, Warner Bros. is celebrating the film's Oscar success by releasing the movie back in theaters with 12 minutes of new footage.
The special "encore" edition of A Star Is Born features extended performances of "Black Eyes" and "'Alibi" as well as Lady Gaga's initial rendition of "Shallow," plus new and additional footage from other scenes throughout the movie—including the writing of a song called "Clover." This encore edition is also available on the film's home video release, but really, there's nothing like seeing this one on the big screen.
The one-week run of A Star Is Born back in theaters begins this coming Friday, March 1st, and will encompass 1,150 theaters. Warner Bros. doesn't exactly need the box office boost—the film has grossed an incredibly impressive $425.3 million worldwide—so this really is more of a chance to celebrate this terrific piece of filmmaking in the ideal setting. Explain to me again how this lost Best Sound Mixing to Bohemian Rhapsody?
Ah nevermind. Let's just watch that "Shallow" performance again.

Oof. This is bad. Within the first few minutes of watching "[Cargo]" one can tell the quality just isn't there, and that inkling is only confirmed as the film goes on. It's perhaps uncouth to come out and state right off the bat, but there's just nothing positive to say about this movie.
From first time director and writer James Dylan it's a thriller (or at least would like to be one) set in a confined space, a la "Buried" and "Locke.' The story begins with wealthy businessman Anthony Peterson, Ron Thompson ("American Me", Baretta (TV)"), waking up in a metal storage container and we remain there for the duration.
He's been left with only a phone and a voice on the other end informs him that he, along with his wife (whose being held elsewhere), have been kidnapped and will be killed if he cannot secure a ten million dollar ransom in the next 24 hours. His scramble to gather the money via calls to employees and estranged family make up the movie, in what is essentially a one-man show.
Now, one-man (or woman) shows can be really great and intriguing. They can be remarkably funny or moving, and full of great characters. But regardless of genre they need at least two components to succeed: a talented performer and a brilliant script.
This, unfortunately, is missing both. And it's made worse by the fact that this isn't a live stage play, it's cinema, a uniquely visual medium, and one that's clearly being wasted here no matter how much they swirl the camera around Thompson during a call.
Given that he's our only onscreen actor and the entirety of the film takes places in one incredibly bland and small setting, the bulk of the film really rests on Thompson's shoulders. Too bad he immediately crumbles under that weight. He's laughably bad, overacting to ridiculous degree. Him halfheartedly wildly "banging" on the metal walls early on is one of the unintentionally funniest things I've seen in a long time.
There's not a genuine moment from him. Given that the movie's producers only really only needed to cast one good actor here I have to wonder how they walked away with quite literally the worst choice. Is he someone's uncle? Did he put money into the film and they owed the guy a favor? I'm honestly curious
But then again it's really not fair to blame the film's failings entirely on Thompson. Choosing to set the film in one small space has the possibility to create tension and inspire feelings of claustrophobia and anxiety. And I'm sure that was at least writer-director Dylan's intention. But instead it just comes across as boring visually, and even worse, cheap.
One can't help but feel this gimmick was conceived of and carried out in this manner merely to save money. It wouldn't be so bad though if the writing was better. The dialogue feels incredibly immature, and every relationship and action here seems insincere. The tone haphazardly attempts to jump from intense and dark to playfully funny, though actually is never either.
I also want to take a second to remark about something regarding this script (though this is sadly far from the only film with this problem). It's a prime example of how a movie can be casually sexist without even meaning to be. I think anyone involved in this would be shocked and offended if you told them you found it misogynistic.
But, while watching it, I can't help but notice how the women here are only mentioned incidentally in relation to the men and, when they are, they're referred to as bitches, c*nts and trophy wives. Not only that, but they're threatened graphically with rape and violence (only with the aim of hurting of a man) and treated as totally disposable. It's disgusting, and what's worse is that it so clearly wasn't even something the writer considered as problematic.
Due to the lack of big names behind the scenes and in front of the (or just heard on) camera, the little promotion and press it's received, and the largely direct to dvd distribution status "[Cargo]" is receiving, this is a film that seems likely to quickly fall into obscurity, and despite my interest in championing independent films and shining a light on new up and coming filmmakers, I'm happy to let this one remain there.
A man wakes trapped inside a cargo container with only a cell phone and is given 24 hours by his kidnappers to raise ten million dollars in ransom or die.

Computer giants go mobile
Fujitsu-Siemens and Intel take their 'Mobility Tour' to Jordan to promote mobile solutions in the healthcare and education sectors.
Fujitsu-Siemens and Intel take their 'Mobility Tour' to Jordan to promote mobile solutions in the healthcare and education sectors.
Under the patronage of HRH Princess Sumaya Bint-Al-Hassan, Fujitsu Siemens Computers and Intel took their 'Mobility Tour' to the Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT) in Jordan to address mobile solutions in healthcare and education.
"An increasing number of businesses worldwide are becoming mobile; with the objective of increasing productivity, saving time and motivating employees through mobile computing," said Christian Bock, Sr. marketing manager, mobility marketing EMEA for Fujitsu-Siemens Computers.
"Like many businesses, the rapidly growing education and healthcare sector are no different. Inspite being budget controlled, these establishments are turning towards mobility solutions to drive efficiency and reduce costs."
Bock maintains that today's education sector faces the challenges of effective learning, student-teacher access to learning documentation, and productivity, with students still being accustomed to using a PC.
"Offering mobility solutions to schools and colleges is a means to make learning more effective, and making the most out of teaching staff. By allowing students and teachers to use notebooks and tablet PC's, we can be assured of higher effectiveness in learning, encourage interactive learning and teaching, and improve overall efficiency."
"Mobility has been developing with a device-centric approach, especially in the handheld market. The challenge for us as an IT vendor is to demonstrate the business advantages, to help in developing an integrated mobility strategy, and take care of user/device/solution acceptance," Bock concluded.

Gobbstopper is the second hybid that Alphakronik Genes has introduced in the Wonka Series. Named such for its long lasting fruity flavor, this hybrid has both yield and extreme trichome coverage. We designed this hybrid to bring a less sweet flavor to the lavenderish and grape tastes of the Purple Urkle by bringing in some mustiness and more lavender from the Sin City Kush line. This created a more sweet and sour type flower, with flavors ranging from Pez Grape with hints of tapioca pudding to Mt. Hood Raspberries with a sandalwood finish. Producing yields upwards of 30g/4L(1 gallon) of soil in an indoor growing environment under a standard 1000 watt HPS lamp, this plant will benefit from topping and other supercropping methods. Staying nice and and medium in size with a couple of phenotypes taking on a bit more of the Afghani height. The flowers grow nice and chunky, with dark red hairs bespecking the buds.
If you want head stash smoke for your private reserve, and need it to be fruity, look no further than Gobbstopper. It will stand with any kush variety of plant it is compared to, and will leave you wanting more. The effect is felt thorughout the body with a slight spike in creativity, but mostly a warm wave of relaxation come over the body making you feel as if you were floating down a river of warm, melted chocloate.

What girl doesn't want to be surrounded by gorgeous jocks day in and day out? Jordan Woods isn't just surrounded by hot guys, though- she leads them as the captain and quarterback of her high school football team. They all see her as one of the guys and that's just fine. As long as she gets her athletic scholarship to a powerhouse university.
But everything she's ever worked for is threatened when Ty Greeen moves to her school. Not only is he an amazing QB, but he's also amazingly hot. And for the first time, Jordan's feeling vulnerable. Can she keep her head in the game while her heart's on the line?
Ive had this book on my Kindle for awhile now and finally had the chance to read it.I had high hopes for this book and I enjoyed it.I didnt Love it however.It was really hard for me to get my head around a girl football player(I know girl power and all that) But usually girls dont want to be football players.I had issues with how Jordan talked.It was so distracting..you can be a athletic girl but you do not have to talk like one of the guys.Jordan just didnt do anything for me..the way she talked,ate and acted was way to much like a guy for a senior girl in high school.Yes I am being stereotypical,But I just had a very hard time getting past it.I enjoyed reading it for the most part.

Theoretical gas concentrations achieving 100% fill of the vitreous cavity in the postoperative period, a gas eye model study (GEMS)
Williamson, Tom H., Guillemaut, Jean-Yves, Hall, Sheldon K., Hutter, Joseph C. and Goddard, Tony (2018) Theoretical gas concentrations achieving 100% fill of the vitreous cavity in the postoperative period, a gas eye model study (GEMS) RETINA, The Journal of Retinal and Vitreous Diseases, 38.

Precis. A mathematical model is described of the physical properties of intraocular gases providing a
guide to the correct gas concentrations to achieve 100% fill of the vitreous cavity postoperatively. A
table for the instruction of surgeons is provided and the effects of different axial lengths examined.
Purpose – To determine the concentrations of different gas tamponades in air to achieve 100% fill of the vitreous cavity postoperatively and to examine the influence of eye volume on these concentrations.
Methods – A mathematical model of the mass transfer dynamics of tamponade and blood gases (O2, N2, CO2) when injected into the eye was used. Mass transfer surface areas were calculated from published anatomical data. The model has been calibrated from published volumetric decay and composition results for three gases sulphahexafluoride, SF6, hexafluoroethane, C2F6, or perfluoropropane, C3F8. The concentrations of these gases (in air) required to achieve 100% fill of the vitreous cavity postoperatively without an intra-ocular pressure rise were determined. The concentrations were calculated for three volumes of the vitreous cavity to test if ocular size influenced the results.
Results – A table of gas concentrations was produced. In a simulation of pars plana vitrectomy operations in which an 80% to 85% fill of the vitreous cavity with gas was achieved at surgery, the concentrations of the three gases in air to achieve 100% fill postoperatively were 10-13% for C3F8, 12-15% for C2F6 and 19-25% for SF6. These were similar to the so-called ''non-expansive'' concentrations used in the clinical setting. The calculations were repeated for three different sizes of eye. Aiming for an 80% fill at surgery and 100% postoperatively, an eye with a 4ml vitreous cavity required 24% SF6, 15% C2F6 or 13% C3F8; 7.2ml required 25% SF6, 15% C2F6 or 13% C3F8; and 10ml required 25% SF6, 16% C2F6 or 13% C3F8. When using 100% gas (for example, employed in pneumatic retinopexy), in order to achieve 100% fill postoperatively, the minimum vitreous cavity fill at surgery was 43% for SF6, 29% for C2F6 and 25% for C3F8 and was only minimally changed by variation in the size of the eye.
Conclusions – A table has been produced which could be used for surgical innovation in gas usage in the vitreous cavity. It provides concentrations for different percentage fills, which will achieve a moment post-operatively with a full fill of the cavity without a pressure rise. Variation in axial length and size of the eye does not appear to alter the values in the table significantly. Those using pneumatic retinopexy need to increase the volume of gas injected with increased size of the eye in order to match the percentage fill of the vitreous cavity recommended for a given tamponade agent.

Crowdholding's Pre-Sale — A Case Study
Crowdholding is a co-creation platform startup that is registered in the UK. We are aiming to allow both startups and the crowd to mutual prosper through co-creation and blockchain technology.
On Sunday the 17th of September, Crowdholding concluded their pre-sale ICO, after 32 days, Crowdholding raised 514 Ethereum tokens, decimating our target of 200. We would firstly like to thank everyone who helped us achieve this target.
This article will be a case study on how we went about implementing our pre-sale and what we have learnt to improve on for our ICO, which will launch on the 1st of November.
Crowdholding was first conceived back in January 2016 between the three co-founders of the startup, from then on the startup has grown its product and size of its team. A working Beta was created back March 2017 and we have over 1200 users on the platform. Crowdholding moved towards a Initial coin offering as it was an opportunity to show the power of the crowd, receive feedback to improve user experience and keep control of our concept.
Our ICO starts on the 1st of November where 44% of the 631 million tokens will be on sale to the public, during the pre-sale 0.8% of all the tokens created were available for purchase. We set a goal of raising 200 Ethereum, and we were more than successful as we managed to raise over 500 in that period. The breakdown of the other token percentages can be found in the white paper here.
Reason for our success
There are a few reasons for our success during the pre-sale that will be implemented during the ICO.
- Strong organic marketing — Most of our marketing power was not spent on ads or paying for articles, but rather through content marketing, growth hacking and connecting with people who would be interested in our ideology. We made sure that we had all forms of communication. Social media channels and we were constantly pushing out new content.
- Strong customer service — We made sure that any curious visitor to the website were greeted with someone from Crowdholding. If they had any doubts, questions or comments we were there to receive them and to reply back. This grows a strong relationship, and shows that we are here to advise and help.
- Use of Bounties — We made sure to use the public who would be interested in our concept / cryptocurrencies. Crowdholding used our own platform to structure bounties. Once this was created, the general public started to share and post to increase the visibility of Crowdholding.
- Improve through feedback — During the whole pre-sale we were constantly improving our website, whitepaper and presentations from feedback from the crowd. We cannot have an ideology praising the power of the crowd, if we do not utilize it as well. We value the crowd's power so much we had bounty systems for feedback on our website and our whitepaper.
- Tracking what was successful and what wasn't — ICO's are still a new concept in investment and with any new investment idea, it can be difficult to market. We consistently looked at what channels worked and what channels were not as effective, which channels need more focus and which channels are growing so much, that they are sustaining themselves.
What we learnt
There were also some concepts we learnt and will add to make our ICO more successful:
- ICO's are a global phenomenon and although China has recently banned ICO's there is still a lot of different nations who are interested in ICO's. We were a little late in getting translations and we will have more translations when the ICO comes around with research to back those markets.
- Connecting / networking — Because we were so focused on marketing and making sure we are connecting with people who visited our website, we didn't have too many chances to get our ideology into events and network with cryptocurrency / blockchain enthusiasts face to face. We are now focusing on growing our team and networking so when it comes around to the 1st of November we will have a wider network to connect.
We cannot wait for our ICO on the 1st of November, if you want to read more about our pre-sale and our concept, click here to read more.

Reward Distribution Rules.
Please read below how the rewarding structure works.
Voters get 35% of the reward
Commenters still receive the majority of 65% of the reward weight, while voters 35%.
You receive only 7 upvotes and must vote what you think are the best answers
You now have a limited amount of upvotes. You won't see the other user votes until the task expires. If you vote the top half comments you will receive a portion of the 35%.
Top 50% upvoted comments get bigger share
Our algorithm gives top 50% upvoted comments more rewards than the bottom 50% comments.
Give me an example with numbers
Top 1/2
Upvoters get 35 % of the reward.
65 % goes to the commentors.
Half of the reward is gained from bottom 1/2.
Bottom 1/2
Upvoters get nothing
1/2 of the reward pool for this segmentis distributed among top 1/2
An example.
There is a task with 1000 Reward.
Let's assume Top 1/2 recevies 70% of all upvotes.
Bottom gets 30 %. But because half of the reward goes to Top 1/2 that makes the final numbers more like Top 1/2 gets 85% (55.25% for commentors, 29,75% for upvoters) and bottom gets 15 % of the final reward.
If there's 100 upvotes:
1 upvote that upvotes a comment in Top is worth around 12 Yups (circa 8 goes to commentor, 4 goes to upvoter)
1 upvote that upvotes a comment in Bottom is worth 5 (All goes to commentor).
Reminder about our Moderation
If you upvote a comment that's reported as Spam or comment that should not be rewarded (eg. "Good job" comments) you will lose your right to be rewarded for this task.
We hope you like this new system and it brings you lots of fruitful discussions and reward you fairly.
Do you still have questions? Read more detailed explanation at our helpdesk
All the best,
Your Crowdholding Team

A commitment to make the loan that is conditioned on obtaining an appraisal satisfactory to the lender, is not considered a firm loan commitment until that condition is removed.
If the appraisal eventually comes in at a number that is too low to support the amount of loan applied for the purchaser may elect to terminate the contract and receive back the down payment.
At the same time, a buyer must be mindful of the date of the mortgage contingency period in the contract. If the loan commitment is not received by the listed date, the purchaser may terminate the contract and receive back the down payment, or ask the seller for an extension of that date.
If an extension of the mortgage contingency is not obtained from the seller in writing, the purchaser could be deemed to have waived the mortgage contingency and be required to close without financing and could lose the deposit. Such a waiver of the contingency can be prevented by making sure such a waiver provision is deleted from the contract. An experienced real estate attorney will be able to easily identify this waiver language and will seek to strike this language from the contract during contract negotiation.

This term my class and I have embarked on the task of trying to redevelop our classroom space. As I mentioned in my previous post we had some assistance from a local business man, Hamish McMillan to start us thinking about what we wanted and how we could do it. The top five changes included a basketball ring over the rubbish bin, new chair designs, a chill out space, arena seating and blocking out our glass windows.The ideas part was the easy bit – how to make the changes has proven to be a bit more difficult.
Basketball Ring Bin – this is still in progress. However, the class has now decided that we can throw rubbish into the bin (with the exception of messy yoghurts, etc) but if they miss they need to pick up 10 pieces of rubbish from the classroom or outside. This is proving to be quite amusing with one boy picking up 50 pieces of rubbish before he decided to just put the paper straight into the bin.
Blocking out the windows – we have decided to look at getting curtains for our windows but are still waiting to see how far our budget will stretch. For the time being we have stuck colourful artwork on the glass.
Arena and different seating – this was an interesting activity. We started by investigating the different seats that were available and the students soon discovered that seats cost a lot more than they thought! We discussed what it was that they meant by arena seating and discovered that it really meant that they wanted to sit in different ways when being given instructions – this has involved sitting outside, moving tables and sitting on the floor and rearranging seats.
Chill Out Space – this has been were we have made the most progress and had a lot of fun. We talked about what a chill out space was and what we would want to use it for. They decided that they wanted a spot that they could choose to work quietly in that was comfortable and different from their desks. We ended up forming a small committee of students who went and researched what things we could buy and how we could set up the space. They decided that they wanted beanbags (which kind of addressed the different seating issue) and nice carpet to sit on. One of the students found a picture of a PVC cube on the internet and shared this with the class. They all liked the idea of having a set space, like a room in the classroom. From there we did a bit of maths and had to work out what area of floor space we could spare. We rearranged all the tables and chairs and then marked out the space on the floor to see if we had the space to create this.
The students then went to the IKEA website to look at what furniture and carpet we could afford to put in our space. Eventually, my husband came in helped a group of boys make the cube. From there we have decorated and furnished the space.
The class developed a set of rules for the use of the space and seem to really enjoy using it. It has been used as a space to work on Ipads, for silent reading for completing work and just for 'chilling' out.
This has been a great activity to do with the class. It was interesting to hear the things that they came up with and then watch them decide what was actually going to work and what might not. The class have felt a real ownership with this activity. It is something that they have seen start from a small idea and develop into a space that they can all use. They now realise that the classroom is their space and that they are able to make changes to it and suggest ways to make it better and that we will listen and take their ideas on-board. There is still things that we are working on but we are getting there.

Side Paddle River Boat Josie Olsen 311/2" Full Size Printed Plans for Radio Control

Fifteen Pages Article and photos (Not all pages Shown )
NOTE: Additional Articles, Building from plans building Hulls, Plank on Frame, Weathering and Painting are included on the Cd
By Charles L. Flygare
This is a model of a river boat that could have been. She has no prototype because the men who built these ships left us no blue prints of their work. Evidently they were built by whittling a model of the hull, guestimating the placing of the superstructure, and eye-balling in the rest. They were real ships, well built and clean of line, some of them still in commission up to a few years ago. The engines were beau¬ties with a stroke of from 10 to 14 feet, and a piston from 3 to 4 feet in diam¬eter. All this was accomplished with crude tools, while steam power was just a growing boy.
The "Josie Olsen" is a combination of the pictures of several old ships. A 6 volt electric motor drives her paddle wheels and works her engine. Balsa wood was used throughout, except for the main deck and the engines, which are bass. To those who have an aversion to balsa, bass wood can be obtained cut to almost any size, down to 1/32 x 1/16" or in 1/32" sheets. Balsa was chosen for ease of cutting and bending, as this model has a planked hull, Also, to make it easier for our younger brothers who haven't too much building experience, or many tools.
Josie was built using only the following tools: An X-acto knife (ten # 11 blades); coping or hand jig saw (coarse and jeweller's blades); Wilkro razor planer; pin vice with 1/16, 3/32, 1;8, 5/32 and 3/16" drills; needle nose pliers; cutting pliers; screw driver, very small; car mechanic's point file; ball point pen (marking balsa); plastic triangle for a square; compasses; paint brush 1/4 in.; ruler; sandpaper block; my wife's curved fingernail scissors for cutting sheet brass; soldering iron for the electrical connections.
This boat was built to be taken down to the "crick" and sailed. She has all the necessary fittings to-make a good looking ship and still not too much clutter to prevent easy access to the machinery, You are at liberty to add all the fancy trim, fittings, and ginger bread you please. As is, while not ex¬act in scale or shining with trim and varnish like a museum model. she will make a shelf model to be proud of.

Man runs on to Sharjah airport runway to catch plane to meet fiancee
Man runs on to Sharjah airport runway to catch plane to meet fiancee
The man neither had his passport nor a ticket.
An Indian civil engineer who sneaked on to the Sharjah International Airport runway and created quite the scene told Khaleej Times that he acted out love for his fiancee and that "I am a free man and our life is ours to do what we want".
The 26-year-old, identified as RK, was arrested by the Sharjah Police after he climbed the airport wall and breached the runway, in an attempt to board a plane without his passport, which was being held by his employer.
Speaking to Khaleej Times, the accused engineer said: "I want to say I'm a free man and our life is ours. I did this act because I wanted to travel back to India to meet my fiancee, whatever the price I have to pay."
During the hearing at the Sharjah Sharia Court, presided by Judge Mahamood Abu Baker, the accused said that on the day of the incident, he left behind all his belongings in his flat, taking only his wallet and went to the airport at night. He climbed the fence and sneaked on to the runway, to try and enter a plane. He hadn't bought a ticket as his passport was being kept by the company he worked for.
So he decided to take the chance to either try and travel without his passport, or if caught in the process, he would be tried in court, get his passport and be deported from the country anyway.
RK says he was spotted by a luggage loader, after which he was arrested and taken into police custody in minutes and subsequently released on bail.
He told Khaleej Times that he was in a grave situation in the UAE as he loved his fiancée but was unable to go meet her. He claimed he had approached his company over 15 times to get permission for a visit home, but his relative who also manages the firm refused to give him permission.
"I cannot live without my fiancée and want to convince my parents to give us permission to marry," he said.
Adding to the complicated saga is the fact that his parents do not approve of their match, while his fiancée's parents do not have any such issues. "But I want my family to agree, because I want to get married only with their precious blessings. Why do parents behave negatively? They should think about the happiness of their children. It's the children's right to marry anyone of their choice."
RK added that he had no regrets at having to face legal action now, but only wants to be free to go home and get married after everything has blown over.
He was only angry at the fact that his company held his passport against his will, in violation of the UAE law. Passports should only be held by the employer for a limited period, while renewing or cancelling visas and if done otherwise, it's a clear violation of the international and UAE labour laws.
