It's the day after Donald Trump used a debate to tout the size of his, um, hands, and I'm sitting shoulder-to-shoulder around a 55" high-def flatscreen with four of the guys working on a startup called Layer3 TV. I flip through the channels: Trump. Trump. More Trump. With a click, I add live Twitter and Facebook updates to the screen. When I reach peak Trump, I navigate over to movies, where offerings from Internet services like Netflix and Hulu appear alongside Layer3's on-demand flicks. If I prefer, I can check out what's on YouTube. "It's all on there," CEO Jeff Binder tells me, leaning back into the sofa with a grin.
Binder plans to reinvent the way you watch TV. For the past two years, he and his co-founders have quietly constructed a takeover tactic for the biggest screen in your home. They've raised close to $100 million from a fund run by private equity outfit TPG and talent agency CAA. But instead of trying to build the next Netflix (which everyone is doing), they're trying to build the next Comcast (which no one at all is doing).
Layer3 is betting it can grab TV's future not by abandoning cable, but by making cable better.
I'm just going to say it: this is a crazy idea. The prevailing wisdom is that cable is dying. After all, cable companies lost more than a million subscribers last year, nearly four times as many as the year before. Viewers are able to find more of the programming they want on the web. Premium cable channels like HBO and Showtime have started selling subscriptions to watch their content online. Viewers can download apps for Netflix or Hulu. Google, Apple, Samsung, Roku and Amazon all offer web-based platforms for accessing a wide variety of content, and almost all of them allow viewers to watch all the new Netflix shows, which they can't get on cable. When entrepreneurs set out to disrupt the $185 billion dollar TV industry, they usually train their sights on something that can be delivered via the the Internet.
But not Layer3. Binder believes that maybe the future of TV doesn't have to be cutting the proverbial cord to cable. Maybe it's just making cable better: clearer pictures, better design, stellar customer service. Layer3 is betting it can grab at least a slice of TV's future not by abandoning cable for online, but by making cable better.
Innovation Frustration
As the options for what and how we watch proliferate, all this "innovating" has made TV downright confusing, and terribly frustrating. There may be more good stuff to watch than ever before, but just try to locate any of it. You won't find Orange is the New Black on cable. You can't catch the Giants game on Roku. You can't watch Transparent on Apple TV. The only way to figure any of this out right now is to Google the show in question. And the a la carte fees mean you still pay a lot for the shows you want. In February my family spent $82 on streaming video—and still couldn't figure out how to watch the presidential debates in our living room.

So it's no surprise that most American TV-watching homes continue to pay an average of $161 a month to some all-in-one service provider—despite the crappy customer service, remote controls with way too many buttons, and programming guides that are clunky and incomplete. "The traditional experience we have at home seems really outdated," says BTIG media and tech analyst Richard Greenfield. "There's a lot of room for taking market share within that." Layer3 is betting just that.
The service boasts an elegant design–combining pay TV channels, including traditional broadcasters and the full array of cable channels you'd expect with Comcast or Time Warner, with Internet-enabled video in a channel guide where it's easy enough for anyone to find what they want to watch. After you use it a few times, Layer3 will learn to show you the programming you are most likely to want to watch first. All of it downloads quickly.
When Layer3 rolls out over the next six months it won't need to lure all of Comcast's customers to turn a profit. "Even a company like Cablevision had just 3 percent of the United States market, and it sold for nearly $20 billion," says Binder, referring to Cablevision's 2015 acquisition by European cable operator Altice. That's more than most of the unicorns in Silicon Valley are worth. Layer3 estimates that it can do a healthy business with just one percent of the pay TV market, or just less than a million subscribers.
Still, it won't be easy enticing people to try something new. Binder knows this. "Look, bottom line, we have to be better than anybody else," he says, and of course, he needs potential customers to notice. That's what will determine if Layer3 can become the new cable—or just another cautionary tale on the way to Internet TV.
Taking on Comcast
Jeff Binder bought the URL for "Layer3" in 2007, long before he knew what he'd do with it. (The name is a reference to network protocol architecture, which has seven layers; the third is network routing over which internet protocol travels.) That was almost a decade ago, the early days of watching shows on the `net. My home connection had just gotten fast enough, and my new laptop was finally powerful enough that I could tune into My So-Called Life on Hulu, which had just launched.
That was also the year Binder, 50, quit Motorola. A third-generation entrepreneur who thinks even faster than he talks, Binder learned to play table tennis at age 10 and rose to place among the top five in the US in his age group. He's the kind of guy who likes a challenge. He delayed college to play music and then started a career as a bond futures trader in Chicago before becoming an entrepreneur. His most successful venture was his video-on-demand startup, Broadbus Technologies, which brought him to Boston. He sold the company to Motorola for $200 million in 2006. Having made his fortune, Binder figured it was finally time for college and enrolled at Harvard. (He graduated in 2012, cum laude.)
Around the same time, Binder struck a partnership with Dave Fellows, who was just leaving his job as the chief technology officer of Comcast. A legend in the cable industry, Fellows, 60, invented Comcast's "triple play" strategy of bundling together cable, broadband and television subscriptions. But he had grown tired of the weekly commute from his Boston home to Comcast headquarters in Philadelphia. The cable industry was just beginning a massive consolidation. As the cost of programming and technology spiked, larger companies like Comcast, Cablevision, and Charter were buying up the smaller companies. "Back then, every cable supplier was for sale," Fellows remembers. The pair went into business, launching an investment firm called Genovation Capital that partnered with TPG and the private equity outfit Silver Lake to evaluate startups and cable companies to invest in or buy. They figured they'd buy a small cable company, fix it up, and sell it. Unfortunately, they kept missing out on the good deals.
By 2012 or so, the effort was getting old—and Internet TV more popular. That's when Binder got the idea to build a new company that paired great software with better technology. He posited that the cable companies weren't going to be willing to improve their video technology fast enough to keep up with customer expectations—but the Internet companies were subject to the inconsistent service of commercial broadband providers and still couldn't provide all the programming available on TV. No one was willing to work together, and that was an opportunity. "I built a massive, comprehensive Excel spreadsheet about how to attack this business," Binder says. Then he invited himself over to Fellows' home to pitch it.
A prototypical programmer, Fellows had studied engineering and applied physics at Harvard. "My first reaction was, 'You're insane,'" Fellows says. "You're going to take on Comcast? I built Comcast." But the more they reflected on it, the more they thought the scheme had a chance. TPG agreed to fund them. Then, very quietly, the pair began to recruit a management team of mostly gray-haired cable guys who'd shaped the existing behemoths. They moved the company's headquarters to Denver. On the advice of investors, they recruited a millennial cofounder—chief marketing officer Eric Kuhn, now 28, who'd made the 2011 Vanity Fair New Establishment list for his work helping Hollywood navigate social media. By 2014, Binder and Fellows had their team in place., and set about building a completely new version of good old-fashioned cable.
Controlling the Bandwidth
Layer3's biggest competitive advantage can be found in an old United Airlines global distribution center just south of its Denver headquarters. "It's one of the most redundant, fault-proof, tornado-proof facilities on the planet," Binder says. Layer3 uses the center to house its supercomputer. We're in Boston, but he has asked an employee to show me around via FaceTime on an iPad. We pass through a secure door in the facility to see eight rows of server racks emitting a low roar. This is where Layer3 will pull in the satellite signals for, say, ESPN or TLC, encode them with Internet protocol, and send them out over fiber optic cable to Layer3 customers. Binder estimates the company will be able to serve millions of subscribers out of this center.
Essentially, Layer3 has figured out how to shrink the amount of bandwidth? needed to transmit video. To transmit typical web video, an Internet connection must support download speeds of 10 to 15 megabits per second. If a lot of viewers are attempting to watch video using this amount of bandwidth, it becomes very taxing on the cables that carry the Internet to a home. Everyone from Comcast to Netflix is trying to solve this problem. In the last year, Internet companies have improved their video technology significantly. Netflix, which is the gold standard and responsible for over a third of all Internet traffic during peak hours, is able to transmit data at just three megabits per second for standard quality, or five megabits per second for high-def.
The major cable providers have begun transmitting their programming over IP, too, but only in locations where they've invested in updating their set-top boxes Consider that Comcast has more than 60 million boxes, and it updates them only every six years. "You wouldn't stick with your phone for five years," Binder reasons. "You cannot stick with your TV delivery device for 5 years or you will end up with a subpar experience." He says Layer3 is able to send high-def video into a home at less than 4 megabits per second, roughly on par with Netflix, but using a different video compression technology called HEVC (high efficiency video coding).
Netflix depends on Internet service providers like TimeWarner and Comcast to transmit its content over the public Internet; however, Layer3 manages its own IP network. It has leased its own 12,000-mile fiber backbone, which takes it into the communities the company serves. To get their signal directly into homes—analysts call this "the last mile"—the Layer3 team has struck deals with large infrastructure companies to carry Internet protocol over their networks. This, according to Binder, is a standard business practice in the industry. Most big cable companies provide their own services, including pay TV services, but they also rent the use of their pipes to other providers.
To be clear: this is not Internet TV. When you plug your Roku into your television, you must depend on your Internet provider for quality service. This can be a problem. The public Internet can be slow, or have traffic jams when everyone wants to watch at once. Because Layer3 won't have to rely on the public Internet delivered by a middleman, Binder says, the company can manage the transmission of your bandwidth, ensuring the quality of the video.
The Cable Guy Drives a Beamer
Last fall, Layer3 started testing its technology and service under the brand name Umio in several hundred households in two upscale Texas communities. None of Umio's customers signed on because of that supercomputer back in Denver. Instead, they were drawn by the promise of awesome customer service. When you place an order, an installation person shows up exactly at the appointed hour, driving a BMW. He brings a set of set-top boxes in a variety of colors—one for each television. Each is slightly smaller than a traditional cable box. Installation is simple—so simple, the company promises, eventually customers will have the option to install the box themselves.
Customers were also intrigued by the promise of more than 300 channels representing both cable and Internet offerings, all organized in an easy-to-use guide. The guide employs algorithms that analyze demographic data, time of day, and viewer preferences to determine which channels to prioritize, and you can use the remote or voice commands to operate it. If you love the Houston Rockets, and it's game time, Layer3 will show that first. Flip from the guide to the movies tab, and visual images of your titles pop up, with a list of all the ways you can watch: via Netflix, Amazon Prime, or set the DVR to record it at 8pm when it comes on Showtime. (For Apple's iTunes, you'll have to hook up your Apple TV.) Customers can also log in to the service from their mobile devices while on the go.
Layer3 TV can offer all of this because, like a traditional pay TV service, it has struck deals with a host of programmers. Though it has yet to make any of those deals public, its safe to say that the service offers the major broadcast, cable, sports, news, kids, and premium channels. "These are industry veterans," a former programmer who worked on one of the deals told me. He asked not to be identified because the details of the agreement are confidential. " There's no real downside to working with them, and I think that the idea that they're cooking up to turn the business on its head a little bit is a really good one."
Yeah, But You're Taking on Comcast?
So will it work? That's the multi-million dollar question. Now that he is this close to launching Layer3, Binder is a realist. "Now we have to do a good job," he says. "We gotta answer the phones if someone calls, and show up at the time they expect us to be there. And all the stuff has to work, all the time." Meanwhile, if Layer3 starts to catch on, other companies will try to replicate its best features.
Already, many traditional pay TV companies are trying to improve programming guides. Comcast's Xfinity X1, for example, has improved its search capabilities and layers in some Internet services, and the company is ramping up its deployment of these boxes. (About a third of Comcast's triple-play customers have the X1 so far.) Meanwhile, AT&T, which now owns DirecTV, plans to offer three packages to let viewers stream shows online—making an array of pay TV channels available over the Internet—by the end of the year. Sure, customers can't get everything on these services that they can get from Layer3, but at one point is the differential a matter of splitting hairs?
In the coming months, Layer3 will roll out to customers in Chicago and a couple of other major cities on the East and West coasts. It will cost somewhere around $80-150, depending on how many TVs a home has. Then Binder will have his answer. He's not worried about the competition. "Here's the problem those companies all have. They're big and generally slow. And then there's their compute platform," he says. "It would be like using an iPhone 4 versus using an iPhone 6."
Outside of the Layer3 team, there are few optimists. Most analysts take a measured approach. "The Internet as we know it today just isn't designed for this level of video distribution," says Craig Moffett, an analyst with MoffettNathanson, referencing the growing number of services that are serving up Internet TV. By managing its own network, Layer3 promises a much better experience for viewers. "But it's not enough to be right on the infrastructure," he says. "They also have to be right about consumer behavior. And they're assuming people are willing to pay for something that, at least initially, is going to look pretty similar to the packages of pay TV that millennials' parents grew up with."
What's clear is that nobody is satisfied with today's TV—and no one can say for sure how it's going to change. One person who works on the digital side of a large television network told me that in the past year, she and he colleagues have noticed that viewers are growing fatigued by all the different over-the-top options and interactive elements involved in programs. "My sense is that people really want TV to be TV again," she said. She had not yet heard of Layer3, but when I described it to her, she said the words that Binder hopes to hear from a lot of people: "Well, sure, I'd pay for that."

With my job posting in Singapore, I'm running out of things to blog. I digged into my collection and surprisingly found this hidden gem that I missed out all the way from 2011. I doubted if I shall post it, because not sure if my experience still relevant or maybe the place has changed since my last visit. However decided to blog about it anyway, because it's a very nice place. An alternative dining place for folks in Ipoh, doubt many people know about it.
The place is located in the Lost World Tambun by Sunway City Ipoh. It's a little quiet here at night, but it's beautifully decorated and I love it.
This is the River Nile restaurant located within the Lost World Tambun, and looking at the photo alone, you would have to agree that it's a very nice place. The soothing lightings, beautiful plants, wooden table with Egyptian theme. Sunway obviously put lots of effort into this place. Those are the open air dining tables with bar for those that fancy some drinks and natural air.
There are internal section as well, fully air-conditioned with huge settings for lots of tables. The environment is very comfortable, and it's almost close to fine dining level, you will love it, and it's definitely a place for falling in love.

We use your GPS history to verify how much time you spend at work through-out your pay period. If you're seeing an error that shows we weren't able to track your hours, here are a few items to consider:
- Your address in Branch must be the same address where you show up to work. If your current address is incorrect, you can add the correct location by clicking the three bars in the top left corner and selecting "Add workplace".
- We're only able to support individuals who work at a valid business address. If you work from home, in the field, or your work location frequently changes, Branch may not be a good fit for you.
- Your hours reset when you receive a paycheck. We grant you access to wages as you earn them between paychecks so funds won't be available until you've worked your next shift immediately following payday.
- Check your phone settings to improve your location detection. First, make sure you are on the most current version of the app. Next, take your phone to work, and ensure you have an internet connection throughout your shift.
- For iOS devices, avoid placing your phone on low power mode, ensure your location is set to "Always" instead of "While app is open", and verify Background App Refresh is enabled.
- For Android devices, set your GPS settings to High Accuracy Mode and avoid placing your phone on battery saver mode.
- If your location tracking has worked in the past, and you have walked through all of the guidelines above, the simplest workaround is to uninstall and reinstall the app. Please note that will require you to re-add your bank/debit info.
If you've taken all of the above into consideration, and you're still not tracking any hours, we unfortunately may not be able to support your device or work setting at this time. We're constantly working to improve our app so please check back in the near future to see if your issue's fixed!

Just a while back, we had two things that united India – Cricket and Bollywood, but I think we have now made way for a third and what else could it be besides the most-talked about celebrity (or craze) – Sunny Leone! This 33 year-old diva has taken not just Bollywood, but the country by storm. She has given all the Miss India's and Miss World's who entered this industry a run for their money. The truth is – You can love her, hate her but you can't ignore her. No wonder she was the most-searched celebrity online in 2013.
She has a beeline of opportunities coming her way – films, item songs, brand endorsements, just name it and she's got it going. She has become the hit mantra for any undertaking. And boy! Does she know how to make news! When you read her interviews, it's like talking to a marketing guru. This sultry actress has become the face of what we may call the acceptance of the adult industry in India. Something like what Vir Das attempted with his stand-up comedy and what Honey Singh aced with his music – only, better.
Take a look at her Instragram account (not that you haven't already) and you will see a million selfies of this gorgeous girl who is nothing short of perfection. Mesmerizing eyes, flawless skin and those red lips are a cherry on top. To add to her appeal, this adult artist–turned-Bollywood actor oozes with confidence, by no means apologetic for who she is. Then again, should she be? She is living a fantasy, or more like is the fantasy of every man/boy in the country today.
We now eagerly await her upcoming release at the box office (Ragini MMS 2) which is completely pegged on this bombshell's oomph factor. It will be interesting to see what the soap opera queen of the country (Ekta Kapoor) and the sex symbol of the nation create when they get together. One thing we know even before the movie hits the big screen is that you will have youngsters running to the theatres, underage boys resorting to whatever it takes to catch this one and the older or more respected audience waiting to sneakily watch it in the comfort of their bedrooms. After all, you're never too old (or young) to play with this baby doll, right?

Originally Odin's bodyguard. After the battle with Loki and Fenrir, Odin leaves her in Issei's town. She then gets persuaded by Rias to become her servant. She remains in Kuou Academy as a teacher.
Rossweisse is known to be a very serious person. She has a tendency to buy things at sales when they're cheap, allowing Issei to coin for her the nickname "The 100-Yen Shop Valkyrie."
Rossweisse makes her first appearance in Volume 5 as Odin's bodyguard, reminding him of his status and telling him not to look at Serafall Leviathan lecherously. Odin responds by mocking her for not having a boyfriend.
Rossweisse is highly proficient in the use of Norse magic, specializing in long-range and bombarding attacks. She is capable of using ice, fire, water, lightning, wind, thunder, light, summoning, and explosive based magic.
Upon returning from her training in Valhalla in Volume 12, she starts to use defensive spells (using the trait of Rook) which are strong enough to easily shield against Balance Breakers.
She later reappears in Volume 7 during Issei and Akeno's date, scolding them for being in the motel during the day and telling them that high-school students should stay home and study. She later helps in the battle against Loki and Fenrir and sealed Loki with her spells. She was abandoned shortly after that by Odin much to her horror, claiming that she was fired. She was then persuaded by Rias into becoming her servant, seeing all the benefits she can get by becoming a Devil and having a stable job of becoming a teacher at Kuoh Academy.
In Volume 9, she accompanies the second-year students to Kyoto. When Issei attempted to peek at the girls, Rossweisse attempted to stop him only to become another victim of Issei's Dress Break, much to her horror due to the fact that her jersey (which was bought under discount) was spoiled. When Issei sees Azazel drinking in the morning telling him that it is not good for health, Rossweisse strongly agrees and lectures Azazel on the fact but was cut short after having being teased by Azazel on not having a boyfriend. Angered by that, she snatches his alcohol and drinks all of it, making herself drunk. This action, however, would indirectly cause her loss when she fought against Heracles.
In Volume 10, she and Koneko fought against Misteeta Sabnock and Gandoma Balam at the Rating Game between their masters, winning the match. She, Xenovia, and Yuuto Kiba would then face Sairaorg Bael but lost to the latter.
In Volume 11, Rossweisse goes back to Asgard to train after her defeat in Kyoto and in her match against Sairaorg but reminded Issei of his mid-term test and prepared a question paper for his reference before leaving.
In Volume 12, she returns after learning various defense magic from her country, which allows her to defend against attacks that are 10 times more powerful than Heracles' Balance Breaker. She also told Rias and her comrades about the rumors that she heard in her homeland regarding the Vampires, that a certain noble Vampire house captured a Longinus possessor which lead to battles between Vampires. After Issei successfully passes his Middle-class Promotion test, Rossweisse like all the female members of the Occult Research Club, decided to go out on a date with Issei.
During the events of Volume 14, Rossweisse participated in the meeting of Mephisto Pheles in regards to making a pact with a Magician due to the Gremory group's recent popularity. Later, she participates in the meeting with the Vampires from the Carmilla Faction. She, along with with rest of the Gremory group (excluding Rias and Kiba), later team up with the Sitri group to rescue Ravel, Koneko, and Gasper after the three were taken captive by the Magician Faction.
In volume 17 Euclid Lucifuge offers her to join him, as he is interested in her research about 666. He later tries to Kidnap her but is stopped by Issei and Rias. It's revealed that Euclid was interested in her because she resembled his sister, Grayfia.

Matching Information Questions
Let's look at the Question type Matching information. Here 's what a matching information question looks like. So each paragraph of your essay will be labelled with usually a letter next to the left side of the paragraphs. And your job is to figure out In which paragraph this information can be found. So for number one, you have a sentence here, and what you're supposed to do is go find in the essay where that information comes from.
Now, these will be paraphrases below, these are not direct sentences from the passage. So what you're doing is you're matching the ideas. The idea is found from somewhere in the passage. And you're supposed to label where. You can use any letter more than once most of the time on this.
In other words, some answers may come from the same paragraph. So if answer to number one comes from paragraph A, the answer for number two could also comes from paragraph A. Okay, let's talked about the question, ingest some strategy quickly and then we'll practice answering a few of these. So as we said before, your job will be to identify paragraphs that contain specific information.
This is similar to the question type matching headings, that you may have studied already, but matching headings questions are about main ideas. This type of question matching information somewhere is about details. You are supposed to find detailed information in the passage. You try to figure out what the main idea of each paragraph and 'm going to match a heading or basically a title with that paragraph.
These questions, you're going to have to scan for details, details within paragraphs. Answers will not come in order. So unfortunately if you find an answer to number three then numbers one and two may not necessarily come before that answer in the passage. Okay, so you're have to scan the whole passage for each question.
Answers will be letters as we said before. So the paragraphs will be labeled with letters and those will be your answer choices for this type of question. Sometimes you can use a letter more than once as we said. So, one paragraph may contain more than one answer choice, number one could the answer for number could come from paragraph A.
And the answer choice for number two could also come from paragraph and you just need to follow the directions. If you cannot use an answer choice more than once they will tell you that. Okay, so here's how to approach this kind of question. As with all other types of reading questions, we just have to say it every time.
Scanning is very important for this. So being able to look at the question and go back and scan the passage for the information you need is very important for this question. If you read the whole passage, if you have to go back through and really read a lot of the passage over again, you will lose a lot of time. So you just need to get really good at scanning for the type of information you need to find in this type of question.
You need to be careful for this type of question, some topics may be discussed in multiple paragraphs. In other words, if you're searching for somebody's name That person's name may be in paragraph two and in paragraph five. And you don't necessarily know where the answer is going to be unless you scan for it and really look at both places.
Also, some paragraphs as we've said already may contain multiple answers. Some paragraphs then will not contain any answers. So don't think that each paragraph needs to connect with one of the answers that's not true. There could be multiple answers in one paragraph or no answers in another paragraph.
Okay so let's try to answer a couple of these here. We'll do the first two. You're welcome to try to answer the second two below on your own. But let's focus our lesson on these first two at the beginning. So as you're approaching this question, which you need to do is look at each one, and as with our sun method that we've talked about before, okay, right where we've skimmed, but then we need to underline and take notes.
Here underlining is really important, so in each answer choice you want to underline the key words. Device is definitely a key word in question number one. Locate planets. A series of images. Okay, so we are going to definitely want to scan the passage for synonyms or paraphrases of these words.
Whatever we can find. I recommend right now pausing your video. Getting out your Lowell article that's linked below if you haven't done that already. And go scan for these answers in the passage, see if you can find which paragraph.
Paragraph contains this information. Go ahead and pause your video now. Okay, hopefully you found In paragraph C this long sentence here. Because in it we find the correct answer for number one. Noticed that synonyms and paraphrases here. A device is a good synonym for machine and a series of images is a close connection to the idea of a time-lapse.
Now, time-lapse might not be a familiar concept for you. Okay, it's a tough phrase, it's a very advanced vocabulary word. But you might be able to gather it from this idea of a group of photos. Okay, that were put together and that they created this illusion of movement in somewhere. Okay, it's a tough question but hopefully you found that our question sentence here.
A device used to locate new planets using a series of images of the sky fits this description as a pair of phrase for what you find in paragraphs C. Okay, so let's go to question number two now if you want to try this again pause your video and go scan for this answer. Before you do, why don't you go ahead and try to underline the keywords in this one that you're going to search for.
Go ahead and pause your video. Okay, so which words did you underline? For me, if I'm going to scan, I want to underline these keywords, prove Lowell's hypothesis and at the beginning a discovery, we're looking for some kind of discovery. Now as you scan the article you know there been several discoveries mentioned, okay?
We're looking for one that prove Lowell's Hypothesis. So if I'm going to go back and scan the article I am definitely going to use Lowell's name for my scanning. The reason why is it's easy to find, it's a capital name and I can just go back and look for the different mentions of Lowell. So we're trying to find in the passage a place where something is discussed that covers a discovery that seems to prove law correct in someway.
Alright so possibly, you found once again in paragraph C, that this answer is covered. So if you look, we are looking for discoveries in prove-Lowell's hypothesis,Information in blue, really covers a lot of that. First of all, we have a discovery, right? Here's your best clue that this maybe correct answer.
And then we've got a tougher part here, prove Lowell's hypothesis, okay. So we have to see if this is work. Let's look down below. The object lay just six degrees from one of the two locations for Planet X that Lowell had suggested. And It seemed as though at long last Lowell had been vindicated.
All right, vindicated is directly related to this idea of proving his hypothesis. To be vindicated means that something shows that actually you had been correct. Now vindicated is a difficult word Maybe you don't know vindicated. We've already got the clue of discovery and you could probably infer that this discovery proved that Lowell was correct even if you don't know the word, vindicated very well.
In fact, that's the correct answer here in paragraph C. Or answer choice C would be the correct answer for number two. Okay, so that's how to approach this type of question. Go ahead and look for them in your practice materials and use the approaches we've discussed in this lesson to go scan effectively for the right answers.

Seats on the Fifty-Yard Line
Yet another American value.
by Barnabas
January 12, 2005
I just checked a ticket broker on line and found that there were fifty-yard-line seats available for the Vikings-Eagles game in Philadelphia this weekend for a mere $855 a ticket. I am impressed. By comparison, a ticket for the same seat at Lambeau Field for the game last weekend between the Vikings and the Packers was cheap – about half the price, in the neighborhood of $400. Monthly rent for that roughly six square feet of space would run at about $48,000 a month, if you lived there (without a private bathroom) – and that's in Green Bay, not Philadelphia!
Sitting in the out-of-doors in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on a January afternoon, at any price, is not my idea of a good time. Along with millions of others I watched the game in my living room, went to the bathroom at will and ate whatever I felt like from the kitchen. But I am not a good test case. So I asked some dedicated fans, the kind who will drive hundreds of miles to see a game they are interested in, if they would buy tickets in that price range if they could afford them.
None of them would - but obviously people did. At game time no empty seats were visible, that I could see. That meant I was looking at some people who had paid hundreds of dollars for the privilege of sitting in 27 degree weather, complete with sleet. They were fortunate. In Green Bay on that date, it might just as easily have been ten below zero.
My rent analogy is absurd. So was my informal survey. But we are left with the bare fact that thousands of people during January pay hundreds of dollars apiece for the privilege of watching football games — out of doors, in places where the mean temperature is below freezing. The good old American response is that it is their business and their money. And I agree with that. Some hobbies and entertainments are big-ticket items to be sure, and who am I to place an artificial value on other people's pleasure? Football is no worse that rock concerts, etc. etc.
My conclusion is not about how much Americans spend on pleasure, but on how little we acknowledge it when we are trumpeting "American Values." We do not include our penchant to spend an awful lot on ourselves.

If you're anything like me, you're always looking for a great, clean romance. This week we're both in luck – contemporary romance writer Alexis Goring is here to tell what she reads, what she writes, and how she does it!
Hi, and thanks for your willingness to appear on my blog!
You're welcome, Karin! Thanks for inviting me to be a guest on your blog.
What genre do you write? How did you pick it?
I write Contemporary Romance because I've always loved a good love story.
What are your favorite genres to read? Why?
I love to read Contemporary Romance, Chick Lit, Women's Fiction, and Christian Living books.
Contemporary Romance is my favorite to read and write because I love a good love story. My favorite CR authors include but are not limited to: Becky Wade, Mary Manners, Laurie Tomlinson, and Angela Ruth Strong.
I like to read Chick Lit because it's lighthearted and fun. Kristin Billerbeck's books are my favorite!
I enjoy reading Women's Fiction by authors like Katie Ganshert and Jennifer Slattery because I like to see how conflict that women can relate to, addressed and most of the time resolved.
I like to read Christian Living books by authors like Beth Moore, Joyce Meyer and Priscilla Shirer because they're so inspirational and encouraging to my heart.
How long did it take you complete your first manuscript (published or not)?
I wrote my first manuscript, Hope in My Heart: A Collection of Heartwarming Stories, in about eight months and edited it within three days. It was published in Autumn 2013. I say "about eight months" because the three stories within my book were each written over time in previous years. So I cannot recall the exact length of time that it took to write each of those three stories because I am always working on new story ideas. "Love Unexpected", "The Best Gift", and "Peace and Love" were my best short stories at the time that I decided to combine them into a book and pursue publication.
Have your follow-up novels been easier or harder to write? Why do you think that is?
My follow-up books have been harder to write. So much harder to write!
I think that one of the reasons why is because after writing and publishing my first book, I learned more about the craft of storytelling. While I'm grateful to have grown as a writer, I struggle with not feeling "free" when I write. So now when I work on a story, I have all of this head knowledge that gets in the way of my creative flow. Essentially, I not only edit as I go but I also double think what I'm writing as a million storytelling techniques and rules weigh on my mind.
What's surprised you the most about the book-publishing process?
How long it takes! I did not know that it can take anywhere between eight months to one year (or more) for most big, traditional publishing houses to release an author's book. Gratefully, God blessed me with a small press publisher who releases my books at a much faster pace.
What's been the most challenging part of getting a book published?
Writing when I have writer's block.
What's your favorite part of the publishing experience?
Receiving the final, flawless product! I love holding my new book in my hands and reading through it.
For learning the writing craft, which do you prefer – books or conferences? Why?
I'd love to be able to attend at least four writers conferences every year because there's nothing like connecting in person with the writing community (agents, authors, editors and publishers)!
If you could recommend one writing conference, what would it be? Why? (If you haven't attended one, which one would you like to attend? Why?)
American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW) hosts a pretty awesome conference every year! If I could only go to one each year, it would be that one.
If you could recommend one writing book, what would it be? Why?
Plot & Structure: Techniques and Exercises for Crafting a Plot That Grips Readers from Start to Finish by James Scott Bell because it teaches the basic foundation you need to lay for a great story!
If you could pick any of your novels to be made into a movie, which one would you pick? Who would you want to play the lead roles, and why?
I'd love for my new, soon-to-be released book Love in Pictures to be made into a movie! I'd like Drew Van Acker to play Logan (the hero) and Kat Graham to play Michelle (the heroine).
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
No. Thanks for the interview!
