This is my first attempt at something like this. Please let me know what you think.
An excerpt from the memoirs of Tubos:
Ah, how I long for the simpler days of my youth. Life as the son of a peasant farmer was simple, back when nothing was more gratifying than finishing up a hard day's work. Now, a constant battle rages inside of me, fighting the urge to settle for the easier path in life, to give up my quest against the great Evil threatening this land.
But Torm's hand has touched mine own heart, and has left inside me the burning desire to carry on with my journey. I must go on. The years of constant battle have wearied me, both from my foes without, and my foes within. Now, within my friends and comrades on this journey, I find my strength, the will to seek out the Light, to push forward until my final battle where I may be rejoined with my maker.

A lot of people are hooked to playing online poker nowadays, so it's only normal that tricks and tips show up daily. The tips, techniques, and strategies that you will learn below have the purpose to make you win the game. Take your time to read and thoroughly understand them, especially if you're a beginner because with these tips you will be a guaranteed winner!
In simple terms, there are two important poker tips that you should never forget and that will make you a winner:
- You will have to know what it takes to be a good online poker player. So you'll have to understand the card game first.
- You will have to apply what you learn here every time.
OK, now let's take them one by one and see what each means.
You have to know how to play good online poker. Online poker is more about implementing a strategy and messing with the other's people minds rather than just having a good poker hand. Although it is indeed a game of chance, you should be able to analyze the numbers, because, after all, online poker is a game of math.
One of the most important tips one can get is that if you want to be a good online poker player, you can't learn how to play poker from the television, you have to read literature on the various strategies because there are way more techniques out there than you will see here.
The biggest mistake among online poker players, especially beginners, is that they just focus on how to improve their hand and forget about the other players. They fail in analyzing and realizing their strength against the other players. You should be able to compare strengths at an online poker table.
You have to apply everything you've learned in all games. That means that you have to control the game. You have to analyze all the cards shown and calculate the chances of you winning. Don't jump into their game, if you run the show you'll easily start making hundreds!
Many players freak out when their competitors raise the stakes and they usually fold. In some cases, that's a smart move, but first, you have to make sure that they're not bluffing. Look at the table and see all the possible card combinations they can have that will be over your own hand.
The last and something crucial that has to stick with you throughout all of your online poker games is that you should never stretch your luck. Know when to quit, because quitting is better than losing all of your money!
Now that you know these crucial online poker tips, you should start applying these strategies. Also, try not to take poker too seriously, in order to avoid frustrations. Many people start being frustrated and disappointed as if the world depended on them winning the hand.

Companies of the sharing economy have their fair share of horror stories. Whether its an Uber driver getting in a fight with a passenger or an Airbnb guest trashing a home, the leaders of these startups know that losing users' trust can be the beginning of the end for their companies.
On Monday at a FORBES 30 Under 30 discussion at Boston's Emerson College, three technology executives emphasized the importance of building a relationship with their customers, especially for companies that have had little precedent. Among them is Getaround, an app that lets users rent strangers' cars, and Hello Alfred, an on-demand concierge service, whose CEO said that a working relationship with a customer can be "magic."
"We're the only company in the world that has a key to your home," said Marcela Sapone, chief executive of Hello Alfred, who noted that her company has made more than 1 million house visits to make people's beds, grocery shop or do their laundry. "You have to believe in good people to run businesses like this."
Jessica Scorpio, Getaround's cofounder and vice president of marketing, echoed that sentiment, noting that the company has put various checks to give those lending some of their most prized assets some peace of mind. The company has real-time identity verification and requires that renters have Facebook accounts, which can be trawled for information and connections. Getaround has also developed hardware to track the whereabouts of a car and passed legislation in certain states to ensure that people know it's "legal and legitimate," said Scorpio.
That kind of work on trust is not only necessary for sharing economy economy or on-demand companies, but all technology companies, according Ryan Ozonian, the CEO of Dust. His company, which was formerly known as Cyber Dust and is backed by billionaire Mark Cuban, has built a non-permanent messaging system that claims it is the only messenger where communications are not relayed or saved in permanent storage. Among those using the service include doctors and their patients, lawyers and their clients as well as coworkers, who don't want to save their messages in any form.
"It's important to tell your customers that you they can trust you and prove it," he said. "We've been subpoenaed about 14 or 15 times and all we do is hand back a blank sheet of paper."
Sapone also discussed her own company's handling of data, which can be quite personal given its access to customers' homes and daily schedules. As a company with an on-demand butler, she called her company and its tools a customer's own "personal CRM."
"It's about giving back your data," she said. "We're not using your data for everyone else... The key is giving people their data and being able to protect their service."

Playing at the Melbourne Cricket Ground might not mean much to most touring players at the International Champions Cup.
But to Tottenham youth goalkeeper Thomas Glover, it would fulfil a life-long ambition.
The Sydney-born gloveman is the only Australian in the three touring sides for this year's series of friendlies.
At just 18, he's yet to hit the radar of most local football fans.
That could change if Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino throws him the gloves on Friday night against Spanish giants Atletico Madrid.
"It would be a dream come true if I did," he said.
"I've got to be ready to play and whatever happens, happens."
Glover has come on in leaps and bounds since trialing for the club three years ago.
EPL Handball rule draws widespread ire
Liverpool, Brighton score EPL wins
Manchester United open EPL with loss
He's now one of four goalkeepers at the club in first-team training, with France No.1 Hugo Lloris, Netherlands veteran Michel Vorm and 21-year-old talent Luke McGee.
If McGee is sent on loan this season, Glover could find himself on the cusp of the Spurs first-team.
It's a tantalising prospect but not one Glover is focussed on.
He says he's happy training under goalkeeping coach Toni Jimenez, working every day with two international custodians.
"I started off playing for Sutherland Sharks in Under 11s all the way to Under 15s," he said.
"I got the opportunity to trial at Spurs and grabbed it with both hands.
"Now there's four of us working with the first-team - Hugo, Michel, Luke and myself.
"Working with the best is going to make me a better goalkeeper."

The Royal Society of Architects in Wales (RSAW) announced today that seven buildings have been shortlisted for the RSAW 2019 Welsh Architecture Awards - the first stage of the RIBA Awards 2019.
Elinor Gray-Williams, chair of the RSAW 2019 jury said:
"There were 14 strong entries submitted this year, and it was encouraging to see such a wide and varied selection of project types, ranging from smaller scaled and highly bespoke domestic projects with big-thinking approaches, to highly complex and large scale education, office and arts centre projects. The care taken in executing the projects and the ambition promised within all schemes was highly impressive, so as a jury we had a tough job narrowing down the entries and agreeing to a shortlist. The RIBA's increasing drive to foster a responsible and sustainable agenda across the UK meant some entries struggled to achieve the shortlist, and in recent times of budget restraints the jury also felt it appropriate to consider value in delivery.
Despite the challenges, the shortlisted schemes all present a high standard of design, with each representing something distinctly creative against similar precedent. Wales should be proud of all the buildings submitted this year."
From the 14 entries submitted, the seven shortlisted buildings in Wales this year are:
- Menai Science Park, Ynys Môn by FaulknerBrowns Architects
- Galeri Caernarfon Cinema Extension, Caernarfon by Richard Murphy Architects
- Canolfan S4C Yr Egin, Carmarthen by BDP with Rural Office for Architecture
- Ysgol Trimsaran, Carmarthenshire by Architype
- St Fagans Main Building, Cardiff by Purcell
- Gweithdy, St Fagans National Museum of History, Cardiff by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios
- Silver How, Llanhennock by Hall + Bednarczyk Architects
All shortlisted buildings will now be assessed by a regional jury with the winning buildings announced at an awards ceremony on Thursday 30 May at Cornerstone, Cardiff.
Several RIBA Special Awards will also be announced including the RIBA Sustainability Award sponsored by Michelmersh and RIBA Project Architect of the Year sponsored by Taylor Maxwell.
If successful, the Regional Award winners will be considered for a highly-coveted RIBA National Award in recognition of their architectural excellence, the results of which will be announced in June. The shortlist for the RIBA Stirling Prize, the best new building of the year, will be drawn from the RIBA National Award-winning buildings in July and the Stirling Prize winner will be announced in October.

Paul and I used half of a leftover roast chicken to make chili for supper. I returned to the store to shop for ingredients to make it green: poblano peppers and tomatillos. A bowl of this chili will keep you warm on a cool Autumn night with mild spicy heat.
View this post on Instagram
You'll love the gentle warmth of the 🔥flame-roasted poblano peppers🌶 in this Green Chili with 🐓Chicken recipe in the profile 🔗. I made 🌽cornbread mini-muffins to slather in butter and Louisiana hot sauce. . . . . . #Mexican #cannellini #cilantro #cumin #chili #chicken #poblano #sourcream #whitebeans #coriander #oregano #avocado, #901eats #eatlocal901 #memphis #memphiseats #madeinmemphis #instafood #foodporn #placeatthetable #placeatthetabledotnet #foodpornshare #foodforfoodies #sharefood #foodies #gourmand #gastronaut #homecooked #homemade #myrecipe
Roasted and skinned poblano peppers impart smokiness and loosely chopped tomatillos provide verdant color and tang to the chili. Cumin, oregano and coriander from the home spice rack added more flavor.
When I served the chili, I garnished the bowl with cool sour cream, sliced avocado, shredded Monterrey Jack cheese, and fresh cilantro leaves. Citric acid from a squeeze of lime adds brightness to all the flavors.
Cornbread muffins make a perfect accompaniment to the chili. I used a 24-count tin for mini-muffins which baked quickly and paired well with Louisiana hot sauce and salted butter.
Green Chili with Chicken
- 2 poblano peppers
- 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 tsp salt
- 5-6 garlic cloves, chopped
- 28-oz can of whole tomatillos with juices, abruptly chopped but not puréed in a blender
- Two 14-oz cans of cannellini (or white northern) beans, rinsed and drained
- Half and chicken (leftover or store-bought rotisserie), chopped
- 1 cup of chicken broth
- 2 Tbsp ground cumin
- 1 Tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp cracked black pepper
- Sour cream, avocado, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, fresh cilantro leaves and lime wedges
- Roast poblanos on gas flame until skin blackens on all sides. Place in a ceramic bowl and cover with a lid for at least 10 minutes.
- While the peppers cool, heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add salt and onions, sauté and stir until they begin to become translucent. Add garlic and stir until fragrant.
- Skin the peppers with a chef's knife at an angle lengthwise. Seed and chop the peppers.
- Add the chopped peppers and all ingredients from tomatillos through black pepper. Bring ingredients to a boil. Lower temperature and simmer for 20 minutes uncovered (stir occasionally).
- Serve in bowls with any or all final ingredients

Hey guys, this is Bill again. Wow!!! What a day!!! I don't think I have ever experienced a day like today. Never have I experienced such extreme joy and sadness in the same day. Today we received the final approval for the adoption of our new son Viktor William DeFrees. We are so excited and relieved to have the final approval. Thank you so much for all the prayers and words of encouragement during this ordeal. We can definitely feel them as we have been fighting an incredible spiritual battle. Our son, Trent, sent me a text today that said "I'm so happy God is answering our prayers. The prayers have been overflowing here in the States from all our friends and even people we don't know. We'll continue to lift you guys up. God will never set anything that you can't handle!". Amen!! Thanks Son!!

Tom Jones, editor of National Genealogical Society Quarterly and author of Mastering Genealogical Proof, encourages family historians to contribute to research by taking a DNA test.
"What should be our first priority is to do what future generations cannot do." Tom notes advancements in indexing will make discovering information from the internet easier for future generations. However, the most important information — things like photographs, family stories and DNA — could be lost if not passed down.
Tom likens genealogy research to a giant puzzle; some pieces have badly damaged pictures and other pieces are missing completely. Each of us is working to reassemble the big picture as best we can. Tom says, "Of course, it works a lot better if we help each other."

Last week, the highly respected publication Lancet (whose authority is unquestionable) announced that it has withdrawn its 1998 study linking autism with certain childhood vaccines.
This in no way should cause any Citizen to lose the slightest bit of faith in this publication, no more than its erroneous calculations about deaths caused by the Iraq war.
Nor should this announcement cause any Citizen to lose the slightest bit of faith in the scientific community, especially in the field of Anthropogenic
Global Warming Climate Change.
Skepticism and doubt is an essential tool in Science, but it is a potent one that should only be practiced by thoroughly trained and sanctioned and licensed Professionals. Ordinary Citizens should not trouble themselves with such challenging concepts, and trust these Professionals' knowledge and integrity.
Citizens observed practicing Skepticism and Doubt should be reported immediately, so they can attend Dr. W. Smith's re-education seminars in Facility 101.
Those who fail to attend — or attend and fail — will be granted further re-education in specific facilities set up around the nation.
That is all. You may now resume your normal duties, Citizens.

When I used to like dance music no one ever asked my why I liked it, I was just allowed to get on with it. When I saw the light and moved into the church of punk-rock and metal I found a growing number of people would ask me why. Odd questions like "why do you like that style of music?", "isn't punk dead?" and "do you like The Verve?" – no, no I don't… It was like I had to justify my musical taste just because, at the time, it was 'different'.
The most annoying part was, and sometimes still is, being told that "rock music is full of swearing and bad messages" or being accused of only listening to it for the swearing". Yeah, whatever :/ In the mid 90's I got into a band called de Heideroosjes, a Dutch punk band. They had a number of songs in various languages and dialects. I had no idea what was being said but I loved the music – so bang goes the accusation that I only listened to that style for the swearing.
And, anyway, even if I was listening to it just for the swearing, would that really have been a problem? I mean, yes swearing isn't big or clever (although a carefully crafted insult can be utterly hilarious at times) but surely it's the overall lyrical theme that is more important? Take these (admittedly cherry-picked) examples below (warning: contains swears and rude stuff):
Sit down beside her like a spider, hi there girl, you mighta
Heard of me before, see whore, you're the kind of girl that I'd assault
And rape then figure why not try not to make your pussy wider?
Fuck you with an umbrella, then open it up while the shit's inside ya
I'm the kinda guy that's mild but I might flip and get a little bit wilder
"Stay Wide Awake" – Eminem
Paddy cake, paddy cake with no hands
Got me in this club making wedding plans
If I take pictures while you do your dance
I can make you famous on Instagram
Shake what you mama gave you
Miss behave you,
I just wanna strip you, deep you, flip you, bubble bath you
What they do, taste my rage, drop cable
Not what you will and what you want and what you may do
Completely separated til I deeply penetrate it
The I take it out and wipe it off
Eat it, eat it, love and hate it, over stat it, overawed
Every where you been can you wiggle, wiggle for the beat on double G again?
"Wiggle" – Jason Derulo
I don't slag no one
I don't even judge
Don't give a shit 'cause I'm not gonna budge
I just want to be who I want to be
Guess that's hard for others to see
I'm not a trendy asshole
I do what I want
I do what I feel like
I'm not a trendy asshole
Don't give a fuck
If it's good enough for you
"Smash" – The Offspring
Of those, I'd rather my kids heard 'Smash' – yes, it has a couple of swears in it, but the message is a much nicer one…
So, J is for Justify – as in do I really need to justify my taste in music?!

Jack Kos – The best laid plans of mice and men…
…are worth sweet bugger all when the weather gods conspire to dump one hell of a storm on you. Andrew and myself headed to Nelson this past weekend with well-defined plans of exactly where we wanted to fish each day. Heading out of the Garden City (or does it deserve a new quake related name like the Shaky City?) the weather was dry and windy. As soon as we hit the pass the weather bomb unleashed upon us: there's just something about driving through horizontal rain that dampens the mood.
Passing by our various river options each was higher and dirtier than the last, so we drove onwards towards Nelson. A brief deviation to a swollen Motueka River was met with the expected results. While we endeavoured to fish the rest of the weekend, the rain, wind and dirty rivers vastly hindered our enjoyment. I kind of gave up on fly-fishing and concentrated on improving my Snap T cast (Very versatile and energy efficient cast when your backcast is limited or you are blind nymphing all day). As it happened the weekend was a bit of a write off as far as the fishing is concerned, but it got me thinking about the importance of adapting to suit the weather conditions. Due to the winter season restrictions and the fact that Andrew had family obligations in Nelson we weren't able to implement a lot of these suggestions, but they might be very useful for some of you guys to consider before the season starts.
1. Get to know your weather forecasts. By far and away my favourites are those offered at www.metvuw.com. The rain radar will show you rain density and wind strength/direction (although this can initially be a bit confusing – read they key.)
2. Get to know river flow data. Easiest way to do this is to follow the links on Riverworks Weather Info. This'll direct you to the relevant regional councils websites. While river flows are not always precisely accurate or frequently updated, they can be hugely useful for getting an indication of where to fish.
3. Be willing to change your plans. If you use the two tips above then you should have a good indication of what the weather and rivers are going to be like in the area you plan to fish. If it looks crap, then change your plans. New Zealand isn't a big place, but you've got to be willing to drive if you want to beat the weather.
4. If you do turn up to a river and it's slightly high and dirty…don't despair, just change your tactics. If you prefer fishing nymphs and dries then concentrate on fishing the edges of the heavier flow. Often trout, browns in particular, will move into the slower flowing edges and dart into the current to pick out food items. Fish flies that have a bit more colour in them than usual, a bit of flash, a hotspot or go to a larger size.
Here are a few of Andrew's high water patterns.
My preferred technique for fishing a high river is streamers. Don't feel that streamers have to be fished on a sinking line, they can be hugely effective fished down and across on a floating line. Again I would use a slightly bigger flashier fly than usual.
5. Lakes are a great option if the weather is crap. My favourite lake fishing setup is a fast sinking line with a green woolly bugger styled booby fly retrieved in short fast strips. I'm far from an expert on lakes, but they often offer a respite from high dirty rivers.
6. If a river is unfishable in its lower reaches then head up the river system. Sometimes tributaries of the main river system can be bringing in large amounts of sediment. Above these tributaries the main river can be perfectly fishable. It certainly isn't always the case, but it can sometimes rescue an otherwise wasted day.
While this river was closed to fishing at the time we visited it, it would have been perfectly fishable despite the rivers lower down in the system being practically unfishable.
7. Go fishing more often. The more you go fishing in as many different locations as you can, the more you'll get to know which rivers can handle a bit of rain, which waterways are protected from particular winds and so on. Some rivers actually fish a lot better after a fresh when slightly up, you've just got to get to know which.
Bad weather is a fact of life for New Zealand fly fishermen. We can't avoid it, all we can do is learn to adapt to make the most of it. So what other tips have you guys got for adapting to the bad weather? Leave a comment and let me know.

First-Time Winner Spotlight: Christian Garin
On Wednesday, Christian Garin stared down five match points against second seed Jeremy Chardy in their second-round match at the Fayez Sarofim & Co. U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship. Four days later, the Chilean lifted his first ATP Tour title in Houston.
Garin was ranked outside the Top 200 of the ATP Rankings just 12 months ago, but will crack the Top 50 for the first time on Monday. He also became the first Chilean in 10 years (Fernando Gonzalez, 2009 Vina Del Mar) to win an ATP Tour singles title. Garin spoke to ATPTour.com after the match to reflect on his maiden moment.
First-Time Winners In 2019
You're the first ATP Tour singles champion from Chile in 10 years. How does it feel?
It feels amazing. I can't believe it yet because it's been a long way for me to get here. I was really upset after losing in the Sao Paulo final, but now I'm in another final less than two months later. I was really nervous, but think I handled it well and am just so happy now.
You saved five match points against Jeremy Chardy in the second round. How much confidence did that give you going into today's match?
It gave me a lot of confidence. I work hard every day and the hard work is paying off. I love tennis and have a great team behind me that's helping me every day.
You won the Roland Garros junior title and won an ATP Tour main draw match (in Vina del Mar) in 2013. It would be six years before you'd win another ATP Tour match. How would you describe the journey from then to where you are today?
It was tough because I made many changes, maybe some bad changes. I lost many times and had some problems with ex-coaches. I moved to Spain and maybe it wasn't a good decision for me. But in the past year, I'm making good things happen and working hard every day, so I'm seeing the results now.
What made you become passionate about tennis and what inspired you to become a pro?
My parents love tennis. Tennis is a very expensive sport, but they always tried to give me the best with it. They always wanted me to play and supported me with it.
How did Fernando Gonzalez and Nicolas Massu inspire you?
I have great memories of both of them. I went to Vina del Mar to watch them both play many times and now consider Nicolas to be a friend. He talks to my coach every day and I know he's really proud of me now.
Did you feel any pressure to live up to what they did?
In the beginning, yes. People like to talk a lot in Chile. They were both in the Top 10 and incredible players, so sometimes the pressure was too much. But I'm enjoying my game and my tennis now, so I've forgotten about that and just focus on myself.
All of your ATP Tour wins have come on clay, but you also qualified for Wimbledon and have had Challenger success on hard courts. Once we're off the clay, do you expect this momentum to continue?
Of course. I love to play on grass and like to play on hard courts. Clay is my favourite surface, but I'm going to try and play more on other surfaces now that I'll have a higher ATP Ranking.
What else do you hope to accomplish in 2019?
I'm not sure what to think because I didn't expect to win an ATP Tour title after Sao Paulo. Now that I've won, I want to just go back home for a few days and work again. I want to learn how to play on hard courts and play on grass a lot, so I just want to be in as many tournaments as I can.

Estonian professional theatres have a tradition of organising performances in provincial towns. As theatres have become more economically dependent on income from ticket sales, they make efforts to reach a larger audience by widening their repertoire; especially since 2000 (see also chapter 1.3.3).
During the past years, several new summer festivals were created outside the large cities. They receive financial support from state bodies.
The programme of renovating schools located in historical manor buildings includes the creation of multi-functional centres for local cultural life. In this case, there are possibilities for co-operation between the state, local governments and local NGOs.
Museums have developed new strategies of attracting visitors, including children and adolescents. On the one hand, they seek to renew their exhibitions and to co-operate with tourism information centres. On the other hand, they have established education and outreach departments and they organise events targeting special audience groups and scientific conferences which are open to the public. Several museums also collaborate with schools. While several museums enable visitors to have free access on the last day of every month, the Art Museum of Estonia has introduced days on which its branch museums can be visited for one euro.

Bypassing their edgy, early singles and concentrating on their artier, more eclectic work of the mid- and late '80s, 458489 A-Sides encapsulates nearly all of the Fall's many attributes. All of the singles on A-Sides are culled from the era when Brix Smith was in the band, arguably the band's most cohesive and rewarding years. Drawing from their strongest albums -- The Wonderful and Frightening World of the Fall, This Nation's Saving Grace, Bend Sinister, The Frenz Experiment -- A-Sides offers an excellent introduction to the Fall. It is both a useful retrospective and a kind of road map, pointing out the differences between albums. For neophytes and the uninitiated, there is no better sampler, and for longtime fans, the collection reiterates what a fine singles band the Fall were in their heyday.

An age-old model explains how states and other groups are likely to approach war in the future, Robert Kaplan says, citing an unpublished essay by Michael Lind:
Lind says that in primitive societies, lawless frontier towns and the world of organized crime, injustice has always been redressed by the injured themselves, or by their powerful protectors; thus, the safety of the weak rests upon the willingness of their protectors to wield power. Indeed, feudal relationships between stronger and weaker states have marked world politics since time immemorial. Even today, civilian economic powers like Germany and Japan and niche states like oil-rich Kuwait and trading tiger Singapore have specific functions in a quasi-feudal Western world order, in which the United States provides military security.
In places where the rule of law does prevail, one is expected to suffer insults without resort to violence. But in a lawless society, a willingness to suffer insults indicates weakness that, in turn, may invite attack. A world without a Leviathan is somewhat similar: An alliance leader must play the role of barbarian chieftain. In theory, international law governs world politics; in practice, relations between great powers are regulated by a sort of Code Duello. Lind notes that "Khrushchev's conception of 'peaceful coexistence' and Third World competition, and the establishment of a Hot Line, were designed to ritualize the struggle for power, not to end it." Such conventions, he continues, "might be compared to the elaborate rules surrounding the aristocratic duel." Such a code may not be Judeo-Christian, yet it is moral just the same. For even in a lawless realm, too extreme a response — killing large numbers of civilians in Beirut for the sake of protecting its northern border, as Israel did in 1982 — may be perceived as wanton violence, and thus lack legitimacy.
In any age, a reputation for power must be balanced by one for mercy. A barbarian chieftain may occasionally have to defend immoral clients (like U.S. support for some dictators during the Cold War), but if he does so too often to the exclusion of all else, his chieftaincy may lose respect and consequently be toppled. A future in which rival chiefs risk assassination as never before — with surprise attacks on computer command posts — is one perfectly suited for a Code Duello.

I've been on a bit of a 'rant and rave' for the past few days on Islam and the Way of Death. In one sense, this shouldn't surprise me – or anyone else. Human beings, as a species, have generally observed some pretty horrifying religious practices. 'Death for Others' is a common religious theme in human history.
It is natural to want to ignore that part of human history. After all, who wants to believe that underneath this sophisticated social veneer, we are all murderous thugs?
No one.
Unfortunately, those on the Left who are murderous thugs are quick to ignore the deadliness of Islam and attack Israel for not being nicer to the murderous thugs on her borders.
Maybe that's the problem. Maybe the problem is that we are reluctant to see how natural it is for the murderous thugs of the Left to be in unholy alliance with the murderous thugs in Islam.

B.C. Ministry of Health co-hosts the 2019 Dementia-Friendly Legislature Luncheon
On March 5, 2019, Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) from across B.C. were invited to a non-partisan luncheon co-hosted by the B.C. Ministry of Health and the Alzheimer Society of B.C. to talk about the importance of building inclusive communities that support people affected by dementia.
The Honourable Adrian Dix, B.C. Minister of Health, welcomed everyone to the event and then Maria Howard, CEO of the Alzheimer Society of B.C., congratulated the MLAs on having the first dementia-friendly legislature in Canada, a commitment deepened this year by inviting people living with dementia to participate. B.C. Green Health spokesperson Sonia Furstenau emphasized that a dementia-friendly province is a friendly province – inclusive of all. Sharing her own connection to dementia, Official Opposition spokesperson Joan Isaacs spoke about the courage and impact of seeing families tell their own stories during Alzheimer Awareness Month in January.
During the luncheon, guests were treated to a performance by the Voices in Motion – an intergenerational choir of high schoolers, people living with dementia and their caregivers – who are part of a research study at the University of Victoria that looks at the positive impact of inclusivity and engagement on people's experience of the dementia journey. After the performance, choir members Priscila Kumar as well as Frank and Mary Peters shared their experience.
According to Alzheimer's Disease International, forty per cent of people living with dementia report not being included in everyday life. One in four people living with dementia hide or conceal their diagnosis, citing stigma as the main reason. Events like the Legislature Luncheon are key opportunities to amplify the voices of people who are directly affected by the disease, helping challenge stigma and change the conversation about dementia.
B.C.'s Legislature is the first in Canada to become dementia friendly, and we celebrate our elected representatives' ongoing commitments to building on that by welcoming and highlighting the voices of people – like the members of the choir – who are affected by the disease.
Thank you to all the speakers for sharing their stories, and to the choir, as well as choir director Erica Phare-Bergh and the staff of Pacific Christian Secondary and St. Andrews Regional High School.

Canadian parts giant Magna International has opened the new Magna Composites Center of Excellence in Esslinge, Germany, in an effort to help European automakers meet increasingly stringent emissions requirements.
The center will primarily focus on developing lightweight structural components, such as vehicle subframes, and exterior body parts, such as door panels and hoods.
Several European automakers are pursuing joint development projects with Magna at the new center, the parts maker says. One automaker is interested in investigating advanced composites for use in structural rear vehicle modules, and another wants to look at composites for vehicle subframes, Magna said in a statement.
"Lightweight composite parts can deliver weight reductions of 30 to 60 per cent over steel," Magna Exteriors President Grahame Burrow said in a statement.
The center has a new 2,300 metric tonne Engel V-Duo press that Magna says is ideally suited for thermoset compression molding of reinforced plastic or sheet molding compound materials. It enables development, demonstration and testing of full-size automotive parts using a wide range of thermoset composite materials and compression molding process settings. The press also links directly to a testing laboratory where temperature cycles, climatic cycles, various static and dynamic tests, and microscopic examinations are performed.
Magna opened a similar center near Toronto in 2010 in partnership with the National Research Council of Canada. Notable projects there include a carbon fiber hood developed for the 2016 Cadillac V-Series and a current project with Ford to test the feasibility of carbon fiber vehicle subframes for possible mass production.

Darkglass Electronics Hyper Luminal Compressor
Blend: Mixes the clean and effected signals.
Time: Sets the time constants (Attack and Release). Fine tuning and mapping can be done through the Darkglass Suite, so users can assign different constants to each model.
Compression: Sets the amount of compression.
Level: Sets the overall output volume of the unit.
USB: A Micro USB B connector allows you to connect the pedal to PC/Mac to load upcoming compressor models, set Time settings and other parameters.
We have made it our mission to combine our analog expertise and signature sound with cutting-edge, digital technologies, not to replace, but to enhance the sonic possibilities and intuitiveness of the next generation of Darkglass products.
The Hyper Luminal Compressor embodies this like no other pedal in the industry: by digitally modeling the side-chain circuits in some of the most legendary compressors in history, we were able to capture their essence and characteristic behavior while keeping a completely analog signal path.
The pedal ships with 3 selectable models (more to be added):
- BUS: Modeled after the Solid State Logic Bus Compressor.
- FET: Inspired by the legendary 1176.
- SYM: Our, now discontinued Super Symmetry, transcends in the digital realm.
But that is not all! Instead of using mechanical switches (because let's face it, switches are boring), to select the compression Ratio and Mode we implemented touch-through-metal sensors.
The sensors in the Hyper Luminal Compressor detect when and where the chassis is touched and changes parameters accordingly: this technology not only provides a very new, intimate and pleasant user experience, setting it apart from any other pedal in the market, but it does so while operating with extreme consistency and, unlike mechanical switches, it is virtually unbreakable.

How to Get Your Fruit Trees to Produce More
Gardening in your own back yard is an excellent form of relaxation, and nothing better than fruit trees to enhance the garden. Producing your own fruit can be challenging but equally rewarding if done correctly, and the following steps will guide you on how you can get your fruit trees to produce more fruit with a little effort.
Step 1: Choosing Two Varieties of Fruit Trees for Appropriate Pollination
In order to get a good crop of fruit, many fruit trees require at least two varieties for cross-pollination. Some pear trees such as 20th Century, Starkcrimson and Moonglow, and apple trees such as Gala, Golden Delicious, Jonagold, Braeburn and Gravenstein are self-pollinating, but they will produce more fruit if they are cross pollinated. For best fruit you should have two trees that bloom at the same time. This will ensure that the king blossoms, which are the first and largest blossoms to open, are pollinated.
Step 2: Standard Fruit Tree Timelines
Standard size apple or pear trees take roughly between 3 to 5 years to start producing fruit. Asian pears being the easiest to grow will start producing fruit the first year. Dwarf variety of fruit trees start bearing fruit a little earlier, generally within the second or third season.
Step 3: Apple and Pear Fruit Trees
Apple and pear trees require a full sun and good drainage. They cannot grow standing in water, but that does not mean the ground around them should be parched. Make sure your apple or pear fruit trees are not planted in low-lying areas because that is where cold air settles and can be fatal to any blossoms or any developing fruit. Also, there should be at least a three-foot wide circle around your tree, and remove any grass growing there, as it can compete with the tree for important nutrients. Also add mulch over the soil, which will not only keep the soil moist but also deter any weeds from growing there.
Apple and pear trees bear fruit on short twigs on older wood called fruit spurs. Spurs will die out if they get too much shade. Ideally, branches should be either in the 10 o'clock or 2 o'clock positions, instead of growing straight up, so that the upper branches do not shade the lower branches. The upper branches should be thinned out to let light and air to the center of the tree so that fruit spurs can remain healthy.
Step 4: Pruning for Healthy Fruit Trees
Pruning is very important for fruit trees because it improves the vigor of the trees encourages the growth of fruiting spurs. One of the reasons fruit trees fail to produce more fruit is the lack of regular moderate pruning. Ideally, trees should be pruned in the winter. At least 1/3rd of the twig like shoots growing off the branches should be pruned.
Do not be afraid of pruning your fruit trees since it does not kill the tree. Thinning is also important for improving the next year's blossoms and promoting a larger fruit size. Apple and pear blossoms for a cluster, consisting of five or six potential fruits, so you should thin these down to one or two fruits so they have more room to grow.
Step 5: Insect Pest Control
Even the most disease resistant varieties of apple and pear trees need insect pest control, so make sure you check with your local county office for the best pesticide to apply in your area.

Dr Sue's clinic in the Capital City has been in business for the past three years and according to her, people are aware of her low fee and many had come in for treatment. "On average the charge, it is between $45 and $50 and it depends on the problem and what kind of treatment and equipment that will be used," she said.
Dr Sue said patients were not pressured into paying the whole amount if they couldn't afford to.
"If people face financial problems and come from a very poor family, I'm willing to give them the medicine free because their health matters and I want them to get better," she said.
Acupuncture is an important component of Chinese traditional medicine and has been proven effective in the treatment and prevention of many diseases.

Can I edit Google Sites CSS to fix accessibility issues?
Accessibility guidelines usually recommend use of an external stylesheet, but Google Sites doesn't allow stylesheets to be included in the website's header code. While it is possible to define styles inline, this method is more tedious and would require a new style declaration every time the style is used, and not all CSS selectors are allowed.

Drug-induced rhabdomyolysis (DIR) is an idiosyncratic and fatal adverse drug reaction (ADR) characterized in severe muscle injuries accompanied by multiple-organ failure. Limited knowledge regarding the pathophysiology of rhabdomyolysis is the main obstacle to developing early biomarkers and prevention strategies. Given the lack of a centralized data resource to curate, organize, and standardize widespread DIR information, here we present a Drug-Induced Rhabdomyolysis Atlas (DIRA) that provides DIR-related information, including: a classification scheme for DIR based on drug labeling information; postmarketing surveillance data of DIR; and DIR drug property information. To elucidate the utility of DIRA, we used precision dosing, concomitant use of DIR drugs, and predictive modeling development to exemplify strategies for idiosyncratic ADR (IADR) management.

KVB is the urban tram/light rail system in Koln/Cologne, Germany. A group of obviously dedicated people have been producing tram/light rail lines that appear to be prototypic routes for MSTS for several years. The latest, just released, are lines 13/16/18. They are available for download, in one file which includes all of the necessary equipment, at http://www.kleinkoeln.de/?auswahl=news
Also available are linie 5, v 3 and linien 6/12/15
As a streetcar/light rail fan, I have had many hours of fun running these routes. They are very stable, and the activities include levels of AI appropriate for urban tram systems.

See more about my virtual realty 360 degree video service I offer to my home buyers here: http://www.realtyofco.com/Virtual-Real-Estate-Agent-Denver-Colorado/
I did 4 virtual reality home tours for the the week ending June 22, 2019. Our main search criteria is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom townhome with a yard under $400,000 in the Denver Metro Area.
The first virtual reality, 360 degree home buying tour was an Indian Creek Neighborhood in Denver townhome: http://www.realtyofco.com/property/6157166/
See all Indian Creek Denver homes for sale here: http://www.realtyofco.com/search/results/3f1/?&sort_lowest=true
I think the condition was a tad less nice than what you are willing to take on. Also, the 3rd bedroom in the basement may not be as functional as what you are looking for, as the 2 showers in the home are both en-suite and if somebody was using the basement bedroom they would have to walk up a flight of stairs for a toilet and through a bedroom for a shower. I really liked the neighborhood, overall location, and yard spaces.
The second virtual reality, 360 degree home buying tour was a LOWRY HEIGHTS CONDO in Denver: http://www.realtyofco.com/property/4760360
See all Lowry Neighborhood in Denver condos for sale here: http://www.realtyofco.com/search/results/3f6/
This complex was pretty well maintained. There was not much living space. I really liked the ceiling heights. The kitchen finishes were just ok. The bathroom finishes were nice. All the different flooring types in the bedrooms were a bit odd. I really liked the 2 patios but neither really qualified for the yard for a dog.
The third virtual reality, 360 degree home buying tour was a Cedar Ridge Townhome in Lakewood: http://www.realtyofco.com/property/9808230/
See all west Lakewood townhomes and condos for sale here: http://www.realtyofco.com/search/results/3f9/
This complex was a bit older looking. The windows on the outside were older but the windows on the inside were newer. It was not an open layout but had a generous dining space. The master suite was very nice with a lot of closet space. The back door from the kitchen only opens to a balcony. You have to go to the basement to get to the backyard. Currently the basement is not very functional.
The fourth virtual reality, 360 degree home buying tour was a The Chateaux at Aurora Park townhome in the Heather Ridge part of town: http://www.realtyofco.com/property/8091234/
See all Heather Ridge townhomes and condos for sale here: http://www.realtyofco.com/search/results/3fb/?&sort_lowest=true
I was worried there would be a lot of road noise from Iliff. But the road noise was not bad and only face a part of the home where you would not be outdoors. The home had a nice floor plan. It was very much an open concept. There were a lot of vaulted ceilings. I really liked the basement bedroom/bathroom and closet. The basement was very functional. The condition of the home was not good. This was much rougher than anything you guys are considering at this point in time. Also, the only access to the back yard was through the main floor bedroom and the yard was not fenced.

Expand your career in nursing and help restore individuals to a higher level of mental health
The Psychiatric Mental-Health Nurse Practitioner serves as an educator, consultant, prescriber, therapist and researcher to enhance life quality for individuals with mental illness, and to prevent mental illness in high risk populations such as children, the elderly and those with co-occurring medical illness and/or substance abuse.
Shenandoah's Psychiatric Mental-Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) Program prepares you with the necessary knowledge, skills, values, meanings and experiences to assume the role of a PMHNP in a variety of clinical settings.

The Post Graduate Certificate (PGC): Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) program is designed for RNs who hold a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree or the Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) with a MSN in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing.
Cohorts are established annually in the Summer. The program can be completed full time in 4 consecutive semesters via a hybrid methodology. Clinical placement is a collaborative process between the student and faculty.

"It was our last day today, so our whole cast, even though they were not in the shot, they came, and we were all sitting and watching the sunrise as we were shooting." Jon M. Chu is talking about his last day of shooting his upcoming movie, Crazy Rich Asians, in the private Boardroom at Apple Orchard Road ahead of his following 'Today At Apple' session. "Singapore has been the best. It's a city of the future, that I can't wait to show on film!"

You'd be forgiven for expecting the 37-year-old Hollywood director, who counts films such as Now You See Me 2, two Step Up movies and a G.I. Joe film under his belt, to be uptight, controlled and intense, but that was nothing like the down-to-earth individual we met. Here are our key takeaways from our intimate chat:
On using social media in his work… Social media for me is an extension of who I am. My conversations are not just with people who like my work, but also the work that I usually jump into. Whether it's G.I. Joe, or Now You See Me 2, or Justin Bieber, all the Step Up movies; all these audiences already built in, so they want to talk to you, and they want to give you advice; and that's been really helpful.
On the power of social media in creating conversations… I think the communication [on social media] between fans and filmmakers has been great, and sometimes not so great, but as long as you can weave through all of that, I love when you're making a movie, and you feel you're not in a dark hole by yourself anymore.

On the role of a modern director… You're not just directing the actors and you're not just directing how the production design should look, and how the lighting should feel, but you're bringing, overall, a tone. And tone is… it could be anything. Tone is who you are. Tone is your perspective. And how you communicate tone by images, music, your presence, how you describe things, how you collect things, how you present those things collected, usually is a good indication of how you see a material itself.
On his first connection with Crazy Rich Asians… I was looking for something. I needed something fresh for myself. I needed something more personal, I needed to find a story that I hadn't explored before. My mom is from Taiwan, and my dad is from China, and they came to the United States and I was raised as an all-American boy, although I was raised in a Chinese restaurant as well. So I had this sort of dual way of thinking.
On finding out his family was referenced in the book… I found out Kevin [Kwan] knew my cousin Vivian, and that a lot of references of the Chus and Cupertino were stories that she had told, and I'm referenced in that. So I was like, 'There's something weird happening with this…' I feel compelled both emotionally and personally to it, and then this other coincidence that happened to me. And that was what led us here! To Singapore.
