In honor of the recent announcement of Batman: Arkham Knight's "Batmobile Battle Mode", today's #Batfact will focus solely on the Batmobile! And sit tight, because it's a BIG'un!
Over the past 75 years, the Batmobile has taken many shapes, and served many purposes. It's been used to intimidate, track, capture, and transport criminals and villains. How MANY forms has the Dark Knight's car assumed since that first red coupe hidden in a garage near stately Wayne Manor? When you take ALL the Batmobiles from the comics, and the Elseworlds stories, and the films and television shows, and add them all up, you get over TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY BATMOBILES!!!
So how could we possibly cover every single one of the cars in Batman's garage? Well, we can't. That would just take forever. So, we'll focus on what I like to call "The Big Five": The Barris Kustoms car (1966-1968), Anton Furst (1989-1992), Barbara Ling (1995 and 1997), and Nathan Crowley (2005-2012). Only four designers are listed because Barbara Ling had the rare opportunity to design TWO different Batmobiles for the Joel Schumacher films, and let's be honest: The movies themselves might not have been the greatest, but their Batmobiles are DEFINITELY in the plus column.
So who's ready for a massive onslaught of Batmobile fun facts? I sure am!
George Barris, Barris Kustoms (1955 Lincoln Futura Model)
1. George Barris was given a budget of $15,000 and a deadline of three weeks to build the Batmobile for the 1966 television show.
2. Barris bought a non-functioning Lincoln Futura concept car (that cost Ford $250,000 to develop) for only ONE DOLLAR.
3. The famous jet thruster on the rear of the Barris Batmobile, which has been repeated for DECADES on future incarnations of the car, was just a five-gallon paint can.
4. The car was originally painted a dull gray with white stripes, but the car just didn't POP for Barris. He soon repainted the vehicle black with orange stripes.
Anton Furst, Production Designer for Batman (1989), Batman Returns (1992)
1. The fins for this Batmobile were hand-sculpted. One fin is curved, and the other is straightened. When the vehicle reaches speeds in excess of 90 miles per hour, the rear of the Batmobile wobbles.
2. While it's not really visible on screen, the black paint on the car has a bit of a green tint to it. Tim Burton is weird.
3. The design for this car was inspired by Salt Flat racing cars and 1950s Stingrays.
4. To build the car, the production team welded together two Impala chassis, and it was powered by a Chevrolet V8 engine. It was capable of going from 0 to 60 in less than 4 seconds.
Barbara Ling, Batmobile Designer for Batman Forever (1995)
1. The design of this car warranted the issuance of three new patents.
2. The alternating lights in the ribs of the Batmobile were designed to make you believe that the Batmobile was breathing.
3. When the engine is fired at full power, it can shoot out a flame up to 25 feet in length.
4. This Batmobile is powered by propane (and propane accessories).
Barbara Ling, Batmobile Designer for Batman & Robin (1997)
1. The treads in the tires of this Batmobile are Bat insignias, so if the Dark Knight has to traverse rough terrain, he leaves a trail of Bat symbols in the dirt. Because Batman TOTALLY wants everyone to know where he goes.
2. Even though we don't get to see much of this car, the cockpit is actually very intricately designed. It's a shame Batman uselessly let it get destroyed in his pursuit of Mr. Olympia — err, Freeze.
3. The car was designed only for one occupant, perhaps for the sole purpose of setting up the scene where Batman disengaged Robin's motorcycle engine during the pursuit of Mr. Universe — I MEAN FREEZE!
4. The original design would have had retractable wings that emerge when he accelerated and retracted when he came to a full stop. Would have been annoying after only the first traffic jam.
Nathan Crowley and Christopher Nolan, Designers of the Tumbler (Batman Begins – The Dark Knight Rises, 2005-2012)
1. Though touted as a military vehicle in the film, the Tumbler's fiberglass body couldn't even stop a bullet (let alone a bazooka shell).
2. Six Tumblers were built for the films, but only four remain. Two were destroyed: Batman's Tumbler in The Dark Knight, and a Tumbler during the final chase scene in The Dark Knight Rises.
3. The movie studio wouldn't let Christopher Nolan even begin shooting Batman Begins until they saw that the Tumbler could do the things they wanted it to in the movie.
4. The Tumbler was conceived of a combination of Humvee and Lamborghini models.
Well, how about that? Some neat little fun #Batfacts for you. I hope you had as much fun reading this article as I did writing it.
As always, DKN wants to know: What is your favorite Batmobile of all-time? Is it the George Barris 1960s car? The Anton Furst Batmobile? Maybe are you in the slim minority who really likes the Barbara Ling designs? Or does your favorite Batmobile come from the comic books?

63% of B2B marketers report that their biggest marketing challenge is to generate traffic and leads (according to the State Of Inbound report by Hubspot).
40% report that they struggle to provide the ROI of their marketing activities.
The most common reasons are:
From my vantage point of 13 years in B2B marketing, I see the ten-step framework that will help you to create a predictable, scalable, optimized and efficient lead generation and sales system.
Recently I've finally recorded and created an in-depth course on full-funnel B2B marketing which I use for six years to create an effective lead generation and sales machine for B2B tech companies and high-ticket service providers .
The full-funnel B2B marketing course will be a good fit for your company if it belongs to one of the industries.
B2B SaaS (mid-price and enterprise)
B2B High-Ticket Service Providers
B2B Manufacturers
Marketing Agencies
The course consists of 10 in-depth modules that will help you to implement the full-funnel B2B marketing framework and create predictable, scalable, optimized and efficient lead generation and sales system.
You'll learn:
The course covers exactly what you need to do to create a winning strategy. There are no "shortcuts" nor "secrets"... just the foundations of what you need for building a predictable lead generation and nurturing system that actually works in complex B2B sales.
If you expect a one-size-fits-all, "silver bullet" solution, then this course is not right for you. If you want to deepen your knowledge and understanding about what's required to generate B2B sales opportunities in today's crazy-competitive market, then this definitely is something to consider including in your learning program for 2019.
This is my second course from Andrei.
I decided to enroll in System B2B marketing for several reasons:
1) SEO and PPC were ineffective
2) Sales team only generated the reasons why leads don't want to buy our product
3) Our work with existing customers was chaotic and ineffective
I got from the course more than I expected.
After 10 modules, it's hard to understand how our company worked without these tools – like blind kittens.
Got a few new ideas and insights:
+ How to segment and prioritize market segment the right way and plan custom campaigns for every segment
+ SWOT analysis based on competitors analysis
+ How to search for new channels, tools and ways for company's growth
The most valuable skills I got from the course are market segmentation, USP development for each segment, ideal customer profile development, mapping customer journey, competitors analysis and company's positioning.
As a result, I've created a realistic marketing plan which can help to achieve expected sales quota.
Also should admit I enjoyed working with Andrei during the course. He quickly provides comprehensive feedback and delivers much more than I expected.
During the entire course, there was not a single question that would remain unanswered.
Thanks a lot for System B2B marketing and wait for me on your inbound marketing course.
Andrei was hired in 2012 as B2B marketing consultant to introduce our products to the new marketplace, and I'm pleased to say that Andrei met and exceeded his target sales quota and our expectations each year.
Andrei has great customer and marketing background and I have no hesitation to highly recommend him as a skilled B2B marketing consultant.
With a help of Andrei we've implemented full-funnel marketing framework and created effective marketing strategy.
As the result, the customer database increased by 40%.
Andrei has been a true inspiration to me when it comes to B2B marketing.
A true leader that understands the value of building long terms relationships with insane value.
If you are looking for growth in the B2B segment, Andrei is your man.
Before starting the course I was acquainted with many marketing tools but had a problem with a system approach. Every marketing tool alone does not give the result that my company needs so I decided to enroll in a System B2B Marketing course.
Our global goal is to create a systematic approach to marketing in our company. Achieving this in one month is not possible, so we are in the process. Andrei showed the system, we now implement it.
After finishing the course, I got new ideas about lead nurturing and what should be improved.
During the course, we developed an ideal customer profile for several market segments. Conducted competitors analysis. Improved unique selling proposition for our core product. Implemented MQL.
Also, I'd like to underline the practical side of the course: no fluff content, minimum theory, just "listen and implement" content.
Andrei also gave lots of templates that simplify our marketing work and course implementation.
The first thought when I've finished the course was: "I have a work for the next few years" :) and the best thing is that everything is packaged in one effective system.
The course is highly recommended for B2B marketers and founders.
I decided to enroll in System B2B marketing course because had a lack of marketing knowledge.
My core goals were to understand how to apply system marketing approach to my business, how to hire the marketer and how to evaluate his work. All of them were successfully achieved with a help of Andrei. We also hired the first marketer who is also implementing everything from a course.
As a short recap I'd say that this course is an awesome help for all B2B founders.

Tonight, the third season of Beauty and the Beast premieres on the CW. The show has already been renewed for a fourth season, though, based solely on its ratings, it should have ended after season 2.
Season 2 premiered to a 0.3 adults 18-49 rating in October 2013. It fell as low as a 0.2 before being removed from the schedule. The show returned in the summer with a season-high 0.4 adults 18-49 rating. The season finale garnered a 0.3 adults 18-49 rating. So how do you think it will fare tonight, facing off against the season finale of Bones and, in all probability, competing with the NBA Finals on the West Coast?

Out, Out, Damn Scot! Christie Davies welcomes the repeal of the Act of Union after three hundred years and the expulsion of an independent Scotland from the UK
Christie Davies looks forward to Scottish independence. Needless to say the views expressed here are those of Christie Davies, not those of the Social Affairs Unit, its Trustees, Advisors or Director.
It is just a question of time now before the SNP, the Scottish National Party, the Urdd Ffascist Alban, wins first a majority of the seats and then an absolute majority in the Scottish Parliament. There will follow a referendum on Scottish independence and the Scots will choose by a huge majority to secede completely. Scotland will break away from Britain exactly as Norway did from Sweden, Iceland from Denmark, Slovakia from Czechoslovakia, the Ukraine from Russia and Macedonia from Serbia. We will soon also see an independent Faroes, Flanders, Catalunya and Corsica. Multi-national, multi-ethnic countries and federations are failing everywhere and being replaced by homogeneous nation states based on primordial loyalties and solidarity. The twenty-first century will be the century of the nation-state and Scotland will be the first.
We in England should welcome this. For the last forty years Scotland has been an economic liability to us and a political nuisance, much as the Republic of Ireland was before 1922. Now we can recreate a new and exclusive English nationalism in continuity with that of the reigns of Edward III, Henry V and Elizabeth I. If there were also to be a referendum in England on the ignominious expulsion of Scotland from the Union, it would be agreed unanimously. It is a divorce by consent. The Scots are, and remain to this day, an utterly foreign people, much as the Irish are. A visit to Scotland is always a great pleasure but only in the sense as a visit to Germany with Baedeker and phrase book. Aberdeen is about as British as Bremen, Edinburgh as Reykyavik, Glasgow as Napoli. Nice people but utterly foreign.
Now too we can rewrite British history as English history, though we can retain the name of Britain, ours by right since the time of Boadicea and Caractacus. We can forget about all those murderous Scottish monarchs who preceded James I of England. Indeed they could all be renumbered, James VI of Scotland became James I of England so his Caledonian predecessors must have been James 0, James -1, James -2, James -3 and so back to the beginning.
The Scots have always shown their continued hostility to us by celebrating the Battle of Bannockburn, much as the French revel in Joan of Arc or the Germans in our expulsion from Norway, Dunkirk, and Crete. It is time now to emphasise the crushing English victories at Flodden, Dunbar and Culloden. For Surrey, Nol and Sweet William of Cumberland! These were all decisive moments in our history. Flodden ensured that we would never again be invaded by the chaotic barbarians from the north; England under the Tudors was becoming an effectively administered state. The Battle of Dunbar, when the Scots were
made by the Lord of Hosts as stubble to our swords,settled the Civil War. Culloden was the point at which, for Britain, global capitalism prevailed over primitive tribalism. Effective government, democracy and a world-wide commercial civilisation are all English inventions, English triumphs, English artefacts hammered onto and against the Scots. England's history was made against Scotland.
Scottish independence augers well for the future of England. For the English economy, it means the loss of a gangrenous toe. Politically it will destroy the Labour Party, a party led by Scots, voted in by Scots and unjustly imposing Scottish policies on us through its Scottish MPs. No more Browns, Cooks and Reids. Whaur's yer noo-found Brutishness now, Gordie Broon? We are British, not Brutish as you insist on pronouncing it. A gentle riddance. It also solves the crisis of the monarchy that will occur on the, hopefully long-deferred, death of our dear Queen. Charles is clearly unfit to succeed in England because of his refusal to be defender of the faith, to be a proper head of the established church. Let Carlos el Verde become King Charles III of Scotland, where he can defend any bloody faith he likes, from the polygamous predestination of the Middle East and James Boswell to organic witchcraft. His sordid divorce is acceptable up there, where they do not believe in the sanctity of marriage and he loves prancing about in a kilt. The English can then choose which member of our royal family will be the next King or Queen, much as they did with William and Mary or George I, when we dumped our Scottish kings.
What happens now to the Scots is not our problem. If they have any sense they will leave the EC and negotiate a bilateral free trade agreement, much as Norway has done; this will give them complete control over their oil and their fish. Orkney and Shetland, though, will leave Scotland and join their Faeroese kinsmen; these Norsemen have always loathed Scotland as "the land of bad grain and greedy ministers" and have nothing in common with their tartan-kilted, Gaelic speaking enemies to the South. One secession begets another.
The Scots should immediately devalue their new currency, both against the pound and the Euro. They can call it the groat. This will enable Scotland to export competitively priced, unsophisticated consumer goods based on cheap labour and not requiring much in the way of skills or education. There will be a corresponding flow of inward investment to what promises to be the economic as well as the cultural Bulgaria of the North. Other countries will obviously want to guard against an influx of poor, uneducated, unskilled, binge-drinking, malkie-wielding migrants from Scotland, necessitating an electric fence and heavily armed border guards on Hadrian's, but everyone will want to snap up property in Scotland, given the favourable exchange rate. Wilderness cottages for green Germans, the Costa Frio north of Peterhead for sauna-wild Finns, weekend homes for Geordies - it all looks good for the local construction industry.
The new divorce settlement will grant sole custody of our Northern Irish child to Scotland and we will make no demands for access. The division of Britain's assets will of course reflect the minuscule, indeed probably negative, contribution made by a subsidised Scotland to their accumulation. A fair solution is that everything in England or overseas should remain English property, together with all military hardware but that Scotland should be responsible for shouldering a substantial part of the National Debt, since it was disproportionately borrowed to fund Scottish projects and policies. Britain's nuclear submarines will move to Milford Haven and provide employment for Pembroke Dock but we will retain sovereign military bases in Scotland, much as we do in Cyprus. Leuchers will become the new Akrotiri, Lewis the new Diego Garcia and, of course we will allow our American allies to share them.
One has to admire the principled way in which the Scottish National Party's MPs at Westminster have refused to vote on questions only affecting England. They have respected our rights and identity; now we must respect theirs. They have exposed the utter hypocrisy of devolution, a sordid device used by the Labour Party to buy off Scottish discontent, while retaining control of England through their Scottish MPs men whom Scottish independence will render, nay reveal to be, foreigners. With independence must come a law that no one who has ever held a seat, or any political office in Scotland can ever enjoy English citizenship, England has been ruled from Brussels and from the Gorbals, ruled in either case by lesser breeds without the common law. Now England will be a nation again; we are free at last.
But, stay, there are sad Welsh orphans plucking at my sleeve and asking,
what is to become of us when Scotland is gone? Are we too to be cast into the outer darkness of Winter North Atlantic?Fortunately the position of Wales is quite different since the Acts of Union between Wales and England under the Tudors were in fact acts of incorporation, which gave all Welsh people the same rights, status and identity as the English. Wales became a common law country. The Welsh were at the time as happy as the parading Viennese in 1938 and Gleichshaltung followed Anschluss. The Welsh literally and legally became English. Unlike the Scots they came to enjoy full equality: no nonsense about Wales being fobbed off with its own inferior legal and church system as Scotland was to be. That is why Shakespeare's Welsh characters are so full of themselves for they had just become English. Why do you think so many English judges, such as Judge Jeffreys and Archbishops, such as old beardie, have been Welsh?
The English revere the Welsh King Arthur and old King Cole (Coel), and Caractacus (Caradog) the Silurian; Boadicea's (Boudicca) statue stands on the Embankment. The Rolls Royce engines that defended us in the Battle of Britain are named after Myrddin Wyllt, the enchanter. Wullie Wallace was a mere traitor to be execrated and castrated, hung, drawn and quartered and his head put on a pike on London Bridge but a statue was raised by England to Owain Glyndŵr in the middle of World War I, for he had been the morning star of the Tudors. Glyndŵr was an in effect an Englishman, raised at the court of Richard II, who married one of his daughters into the English royal family and another into the Herefordshire gentry.
The Welsh should be offered another referendum on the future of the Welsh Assembly. The Assembly was established on the basis of a tiny majority of votes on a very low poll, as a mere afterthought to the Scottish Parliament. Senydd i'rAlban. Ail wobr i Gymru. It is not a parliament; it has little more significance than a county council. Given a free choice the Welsh would get rid of this refuge for windbags and badger-watchers tomorrow.
With Scotland and Ireland gone and the Welsh Assembly building turned into a multi-storey car-park, the Welsh can once again regain their rightful symbolic position in what will now be called the United Kingdom of Britain, for that is what it is. The Great was only ever put in to flatter the Scots. The dragon will replace the unicorn in the royal coat of arms as it did under the Tudors and we will have a new flag, the cross of St. George with four red dragons, the dragon of Cadwallader, one within each white rectangle. St. George and the Dragon will join in a Hegelian synthesis. Y Ddraig Goch Ddyry Cychwyn.
Christie Davies, a Surrey man, is the author of Dewi the Dragon 2006, a very British fable, and of The Strange Death of Moral Britain 2006 (2004) which ignores the Scots.

What an ignorant (very long) rant this is. Not so much what side of bed you got out of but which window did you fall through?
Full of inaccuracies and myths that have been exploded by serious journalistic investigation - read 'Scotching the Myth' by George Rosie as first published in Scotland on Sunday and preserved on http://www.alba.org.uk/ see Scotching the Myth on left hand sidebar.
Please feel free to republish your rebuttal after you have read that article. Apologies on behalf of the Scottish people will be greatly appreciated.Posted by: Grant Thoms at January 24, 2007 01:54 PM
Entertaining, but mad as a badger, and he can't spell Leuchars.
Totally ignores the massively positive Scots' contribution to his Empire and is clearly affronted at their desire to rid themselves of their chip on their shoulder, and constant whingeing about the English being to blame for everything, by actually standing up and taking some responsibility for themselves.Posted by: Buchan at January 24, 2007 01:57 PM
Well, I think it's a brillianet satire of the more wayward English "nationalist" ranters . . . Oh, no, wait: this is serious?! Dear oh dear...Posted by: timmyhawk at January 24, 2007 04:18 PM
After looking at the comments, I also read Scotching the Myth. So to the English it appears that their money is being siphoned off to Scotland, and the Scots see it as being siphoned off to England. Maybe it is simply disappearing down a Brown Hole.
I wondered at the time of Devolution, was it the Scots making monkeys out of the English, or the English making monkeys out of the Scots? I think the government (and I dont just mean the present Labour administration, but also the permanent residents of Whitehall and the town halls) are making monkeys out of us all.Posted by: Robert H. Olley at January 25, 2007 06:54 PM
What a silly, prejudiced, provincial and faintly embarrassing tirade. How very unctuous of Social Affairs Unit to state that this does not of course represent its views not good enough; youve given space to a grubby bit of non-thinking that falls well below the standards we normally get here. This guy kicks off in laughable fashion, confidently prescribing exactly what the political future holds always a sign of the mentally indolent that is. We had all this type of predicting nonsense the last time that the SNP were going to sweep all before it. That was in the late 1970s you must remember, it was a precursor to that woman Margaret Thatcher coming to power, and she really did go-the-nationalist-way didnt she?!
Im loath to spend any time on this, but a few relevant references to facts please? Scotland an economic liability for 40 years? So were utter economic ignoramuses when it comes to the contribution of North Sea Oil in that period - and the world-class indigenous Scottish Financial services industry; hence the large segment of the Edinburgh population being affluent ex South-East natives).
Murderous Scottish kings that preceded James the Sixth? Has he ever heard of the likes of the Scottish Malcolm or Margaret (yeah, ok Im being facetious). Like Englands royalty were something civilised and inclined against violence? Methinks this guy has overdosed on too much reading of Macbeth (that was a classic case of English literature subservient to the Establishment, lying about known history and making much use of racial stereotyping). He should spend some time comparing the English Magna Carta (a thieves agreement among some robber barons) with Scotlands truly magnificent Declaration of Abroath (of such a standard it became a keystone document in Europe at the time and subsequently had much influence on, for example, the USA Constitution).
But this guy wont know anything about that will he, because he has clearly digested (poorly) an Anglo-centric, myopic and incomplete view of the world.
And on this incomplete view of the world - as for his other little quasi-racist lumping in of the Scottish with the pre-independent Irish he might pay attention to the disproportionate influence that the Irish (compared to the waning ex-Imperial UK) have always subsequently had on the superpower USA. An independent Scotland will replicate such an influence because of the continued strength of kith & kin ties such as the Irish have built on.
I suppose that Unionsits can point to this nonsense and say "see, that's the type of little provincials that would run a colection of small-mindedfiefdoms all over Britain if we break up the Union".Posted by: ted at January 30, 2007 01:28 PM
I have heard some rants in my time but this takes the biscuit but confirms the general, not specific anti Scottish nature of the Engliish. He clearly was educated at the English school that teaches the crap how the wonderful English subsidice's the world and those starving ungrateful jocks. But just a few basic facts, that even my five year old grandson can work out. The UK treasury collects around £380 billion in tax each year. At the moment the PSBR stands at around £40 billion per year, just as it did in the time of Thatcher. In other words the UK treasury has to borrow around £1 billion per week just to stand still. Scotland contributes around £42 billion per year to the UK treasury. Now under the Barnett formulae Scotland is awarded around £18 billion pounds to run her her own affairs. By the way they are not my figures they are government figures. I do not know how they teach maths in England but 18 from 42 is 24...Work it out. Oil is not taken into consideration as this is classed as a UK asset. The last I heard oil contributed around £6 billion. But it is calculated at the lowest denominator so as not to give the SNP any brownie points. In short you could treble that. So lets make some simple calculations. Suppose England tried to go it alone. First it would not receive the £42 billion in tax from Scotland. Second it would have to add that £42 billion onto the £40 billion PSBR. None of that goes to Scotland. And third it would not receive the oil revenue. Let us leave it £6 billion. That is £88 billion the then English treasury would not receive and would have to raise on it's own. Who is subsidising who. Oh and by the way there is a difference between the 4th largest and 4th richest economy in he world that seems confusing to the English education system. That is why when in opposition English MP's are always on the rant about subsidising the Scots, and how they are going to get rid of them, and be English In power when they are taught how to add one and one together they suddenly become very BritishPosted by: Jimmy Dunn at August 11, 2008 10:24 AM
All these Scottish boasts about their "world class indigenous Scottish financial services industry" look a bit hollow after the fraufulent collapse of all their banks that have been bailed out by English loans. The oil revenue was never Scots. The oil came from British not Scottish waters. They are becoming independant just as their oil is running out.
Also the average of the Scots will soon exceed 60 despite their unhealthy way of life. Scotland is an old-folks home for paupers. Their young people have all left because they know Scotland is finished - MacRats lleaving a sinking barge. Their children will speak English and soon become English. The collapse of the Church of Scotland means they will have the lost vestige of Scottish identity. The European Union has made it clear that they will have to reapply to join. The Spaniards, Belgians and Cypriots will veto their admission. Heavy tariffs will exclude their whiskey. Independence and penury gang tigether. Please Scotland vote for independance

This coins are used in AA meetings. These tokens mark the struggles and success in their sober life and even the number of time the person has been successful from abstaining from alcohol or drugs. AA tokens are vital for people fighting addiction.

Keep Going
We all move at our own pace. If we are hurried, we often are more likely to make mistakes. If we are slowed down, we are often impatient and snippy. I've often remarked... 'Don't rush me!' or 'Good grief, Go already.' Today, I felt like I was in the fast lane of life and it was not a comfortable feeling.
'Sometimes your heart needs more time to accept what your mind already knows.' I think this phrase points to the danger in having people say a quick 'prayer' and telling them they are saved. There are countless people with biblical head knowledge but their heart has turned deaf to it. Salvation isn't a one-stop shop, but the beginning of sanctification... the transforming of ourselves into Christ's likeness. God works in mysterious ways sometimes just to get us to see His light in the darkness.
Sometimes our impatience can influence our witnessing. We give up on people because their spiritual growth doesn't follow our timeline. God's timing is the only clock that counts and we don't know what it says. We give up because we see how far there is to go, instead of how far they've come. Our witnessing should always have an eternal goal and perspective, rather than a short term gain in focus.
'Progress has little to do with speed, but much to do with direction.'
'Our goal should be progress, not perfection.'
'The way of progress is neither swift nor easy.'
May we lead others in the right direction and have them follow in a progressive pace.

How to live stream the 2016 presidential debates
From Twitter to Sling TV, there are lots of options.
Recommendations are independently chosen by Reviewed's editors. Purchases you make through our links may earn us a commission.
Our news feeds have been clogged with talk of Trump and Clinton for so long it's hard to remember what it was like before the two announced their presidential runs. But with the first presidential debate scheduled to occur on Monday, September 26 at 9pm ET, we're ready to finally watch the candidates duke it out live on screens everywhere.
If you're as excited as we are, chances are you're wondering how you can watch the debates. Folks with cable can tune into any number of channels, but cord-cutters are no doubt pondering the best way to live stream.
Not to worry, fellow Americans! Here's how you can watch the future of our country hang in the balance:
How to watch on your laptop or tablet
If you're planning to huddle around your laptop or tablet, there are a few good options at your disposal.
Twitter is teaming up with Bloomberg Television to stream the media company's live broadcast of the debates. The video will be paired with a scrolling list of relevant tweets, as well as Bloomberg Politics programming that will run for 30 minutes before and after the debates. To access the stream, go to debates.twitter.com, Twitter Moments, or Bloomberg's @bpolitics account.
Facebook, on the other hand, has an exclusive deal to live stream ABC News' debate broadcast. The stream will run ad-free, and coverage begins two hours before the debate, kicking off on Facebook Live with original commentary. You can access the stream on ABC News' Facebook page.
Youtube provides more debate-watching options through deals with PBS, Telemundo, Fox News, Bloomberg, and the Washington Post. It's a pretty impressive array to choose from! Find them on Youtube's Live page.
How to watch on your phone
If you're going to be on the go, but still want to tune in, the same options for your laptop also apply.
You'll be able to watch Bloomberg's broadcast inside the Twitter app (you'll find it under the Moments tab), ABC News' broadcast on their Facebook page in the Facebook app, and various streams from NBC News, PBS, Telemundo, and more from their account pages in the YouTube app.
Finally, Sling TV is offering a free 18-hour preview on Monday, which means anyone can use the Sling TV app to catch the first debate.
RELATED: It's Facebook vs. Twitter in presidential debates
How to watch on your TV
Want to watch a debate live stream on your TV? There are a bunch of ways to accomplish this, depending on the tools you have at your disposal.
If you want to watch Twitter's debate coverage from Bloomberg on a bigger screen, you can use the Twitter app on Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, or Xbox One to stream it on your television.
You can also watch live streams from Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube using streaming devices like Roku and Google Chromecast.
Finally, Sling TV is a great option if you want to watch streaming coverage of the debates. With its free 18-hour preview, you can watch the debate through the Sling TV app on Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Roku.
How to watch in virtual reality
If you've got an HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, or Samsung Gear VR headset, then we've got good news for you. NBC has teamed up with Altspace VR to host debate-watching parties, political Q&A sessions, and more in virtual reality. It may not be quite as readily accessible as streaming the debate on Twitter, but it is far, far cooler.

Vacancy for Intern Data Processor (0.6-0.8 FTE)
Aidenvironment leads the Global Rapid Response Deforestation Monitoring (RRDM) System, in consortium with Waxman Strategies (a Washington-based advocacy consultancy). This project funded by Norway's International Climate and Forest Initiative (NICFI), targets commodity buyers and commodity producers to adopt "no deforestation, no peat, no exploitation" (NDPE) policies. This will be done by producing high quality and credible rapid-response deforestation reports to identify in a short time span deforestation as it is happening in forests around the world. The reports are based on the aggregation of deforestation monitoring data and large publicly available datasets such as land ownership registration, concession data, conservation areas, corporate data, trade data, supply chain linkages, vegetation types and more. We use Satellite Imagery Analysis and Geo Information Systems (GIS) to organize the data.
As an intern data processor for Aidenvironment's RRDM system you will be responsible for the organizing, cleaning, and processing of large data sets relevant to our RRDM project and GIS system. Working on these issues will give you the opportunity to learn about some of the key environmental issues of our time: deforestation, land use change, sustainable value chains and sustainable finance.
We are looking for a Master student with experience in working with large datasets, data mining/big data, and data processing. Moreover, we search someone who is enthusiastic to work on the topics of deforestation, sustainable value chains and finance.

Chesterfield Township Supervisor Michael Lovelock faces federal bribery, corruption charges
CHESTERFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. – The former supervisor of Chesterfield Township is facing federal charges of engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, including demanding and accepting money and other things of value in exchange for official acts as the township supervisor.
Michael Lovelock, 57, of New Baltimore, is charged with four counts of conspiracy and demanding bribes in exchange for corruptly influencing his decisions as a supervisor. Lovelock was indicted by a grand jury Wednesday.
The indictment is part of an ongoing investigation into systemic corruption in multiple municipalities in southeast Michigan, primarily Macomb County, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
Over six years while serving as supervisor, Lovelock allegedly conspired with a representative of a company and accepted bribes on multiple occasions from that company and from an undercover FBI agent. In exchange, Lovelock would vote in favor of a contract for the company, and agreed to put past due amounts owed to the company by township residents on the township tax bills of those residents in order to assist the company in collecting money, authorities said.
Lovelock could face up to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 on each of the bribery counts and five years for conspiracy.

The results of the study.
American doctors find out how much time the men should be paid weekly strength training. According to the researchers, not to overdo it with exercise, you should engage in no more than seven and a half hours.
In the study, which was carried out for 25 years, involved more than three thousand physically active respondents. Men aged 18 to 55 years were divided into three groups depending on how much time they devote weekly to strength training.
The first group consisted of men who were devoted to training two hours or less. In the second group were those who worked from two to seven hours per week. And the last group included the most active, which practiced weekly for more than seven hours.
It turned out that most of the white men who spent more than seven hours of training suffered from cardiovascular diseases. Approximately 87% of people with the last group was affected by this disease.
But black men, on the contrary, most of them showed excellent health.

No matter what your style is, there will always be days when you just want to look and feel extra girly and on those days, you'll want everything from head to toe to look soft and dainty. Now, aside from your clothes, did you know that your hair and makeup can also help you achieve that ultra girly look? Here are some ideas for romantic hair and makeup looks to complement your sweet style.
- SOFTLY TOUSLED UPDO – a softly tousled updo is one of the most versatile romantic hairstyle you can create that will go well with just about any look, be it one for a formal dinner date with your man or for an outfit that you will wear to that long-awaited picnic at the park date. This hairstyle works best on textured hair (read: second day hair and beyond) so if you have naturally straight and silky hair, you might want to give it some curls / waves first.
- ROSE GOLD EYE MAKEUP – rose gold is such a lovely color and it is my personal favorite when it comes to a lot of things including eye makeup. On its own, it has a very soft and dainty look to it but all that looks subtly seductive when smoked out with darker colors and a smudge of liner and it works quite well for either day or night.
- MESSY BRAIDS – there's something about messy braids that make it look so effortlessly chic and romantic. To create the messy effect on any kind of braided hairstyle, simply tug and pull out a few sections here and there until your braid is loosened up and some of your layered have peeked through.
- DEWY LOOK – the dewy makeup look isn't just great for getting that fresh and healthy glow, it's also great for achieving a soft and romantic look. Perfecting the dewy look and making sure it doesn't end up having you look oily or greasy can be a little challenging but it is well worth it.
- BUMPED UP HALF UP – a half up hairstyle is great if you want something a little more relaxed and laidback than a ponytail. Bump it up and add volume to the crown to give it a hint of that sexy and flirty look without taking away the sweet vibe. This hairstyle works well with curly, wavy and straight hair of all lengths so it's a perfect go-to hairstyle as well.

Hold on to your dueling side buns and 80's fantasies boys…there are rumors swirling around that Disney may be saying "all done" to Princess Leia's gold bikini. The gold two piece, worn by Slave Leia in Return of the Jedi, could be phased out…in other words, the iconic metal ensemble would no longer be used in "Star Wars" films going forward, or included in any merchandise being sold. I have some questions. First and foremost, does this mean that the one worn by Carrie Fisher (which I think, she hates) will be on display at the Smithsonian? I would think this would be on the same level as Fonzi's jacket, Archie Bunker's chair and Dorothy's Ruby Slippers (which, are surprisingly not as dazzling as you would think, in person). Second, are we basically saying that this bikini is unacceptable….BUT millions women posting pictures of themselves on Instagram, half-naked on a yacht in Dubai with "hashtag blessed" is ok? Interesting. We'll have to see how this all shakes out.

Somerset Maugham, the English writer, once wrote a story about a janitor at St Peter's
Church in London. One day a young vicar discovered that the janitor was illiterate and
fired him. Jobless, the man invested his meager savings in a tiny tobacco shop, where he
prospered, bought another, expanded, and ended up with a chain of tobacco stores worth
several hundred thousand dollars. One day the man's banker said, "You've done well
for an illiterate, but where would you be if you could read and write?"
"Well," replied the man, "I'd be janitor of St. Peter's Church in Neville

If you could kick the person responsible for most of your troubles in the backside, you wouldn't be able to sit down for

Bits and Pieces, December 1990.
The photographer for a national magazine was assigned to get photos of a great forest fire.
Smoke at the scene hampered him and he asked his home office to hire a plane. Arrangements were
made and he was told to go at once to a nearby airport, where the plane would be waiting. When he arrived at the airport, a plane
was warming up near the runway. He jumped in with his equipment and yelled, "Let's go! Let's go!" The pilot swung the plane
into the wind and they soon were in the air.
"Fly over the north side of the fire," yelled the photographer, "and make three or
four low level passes."
"Why?" asked the pilot.
"Because I'm going to take pictures," cried the photographer. "I'm a
photographer and photographers take pictures!"
After a pause the pilot said, "You mean you're not the instructor?"
