Stocks head lower on Wall Street, led by banks
NEW YORK (AP) -- The stock market sank early Thursday following a disappointing report on Americans' spending last month. Bed Bath & Beyond and banks were among the biggest losers.
KEEPING SCORE: A half hour after the opening bell, Dow Jones industrial average was down 89 points, or 0.5 percent, at 16,779. The Standard & Poor's 500 index sank nine points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,949, while the Nasdaq composite index fell 19 points, or 0.4 percent, to 4,362.
JOBS: The government said that the number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits declined last week, the latest evidence that an economic slowdown earlier this year hasn't caused employers to shed workers. The unemployment rate is 6.3 percent, the lowest level in more than five years.
TOOK A BATH: Bed Bath & Beyond sank 9 percent, the biggest loss in the S&P 500, after the company posted quarterly earnings and sales late Wednesday that fell short of analysts' estimates. The store's stock dropped $5.80 to $55.31.
HEAVY METAL: Alcoa plans to acquire Firth Rixson, a British maker of jet-engine parts, for $2.9 billion, as the company continues to shift away from its aluminum-smelting roots. Alcoa's stock rose 33 cents, or 2 percent, to $14.87 in early trading.
EUROPE: Major European markets wavered around the start line Thursday. France's CAC 40 edged up 0.1 percent while Germany's DAX slipped 0.1 percent. The FTSE 100 index of leading British companies was flat.
BONDS AND COMMODITIES: In the market for government bonds, the yield on the 10-year note dropped to 2.52 percent from 2.56 percent late Wednesday. Bond yields fall when prices rise. The price of crude oil fell 43 cents to $106.07 a barrel.

Being President of a country may not sound a simple thing but nearly everyone would want to get an insight into what inspires persons holding this top office.
For President Paul Kagame, there are three books he has read deeply and considers them very important and worth sharing.
One of these books is titled "How Will You Measure Your Life" by Clayton M. Christensen, James Allworth, and Karen Dillon.
This author, Harvard Business School Professor Clayton M. Christensen tackles questioned of how to live a happy, meaningful, purpose-filled life.
According to his presentation life is not just about career ambitions but about what you hope for your life. He extends that conversation in this highly engaging and intensely revealing work, distilling lessons learned from studying businesses over the course of a multidecade academic career and spinning them into deeply personal wisdom.
This book which President Kagame has also flipped from page to page will get you on your way to focusing your energy and critical thinking on a work-life balance that is both satisfying and rewarding.
A President definitely faces several challenges on a daily basis managing people and this basically wears him out. He should therefore have the ability to identify and manage his own emotions and the emotions of others – this is known as emotional Intelligence.
Kagame recommends another book; Emotional Intelligence(Working with Emotional Intelligence) by Daniel Goleman.
Dan Goleman also a science journalist has since 1990 popularized the concept of emotional intelligence which has now become a household phrase, accepted widely as key to personal and professional growth.
Reading through Goleman's book, you will gain the capability to recognize your own emotions and those of others discern between different feelings and label them appropriately, use emotional information to guide thinking and behaviour, and manage and/or adjust emotions to adapt to environments or achieve one's goals.
President Kagame would of course be interested in why Asia is on a super trajectory rising against odds and the Asian story would be of importance for Rwanda.
In the book Thunder from the East, the authors Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn explore why the economic crisis in Asia was the best thing that happened to this part of the world. Their reasoning would leave any reader tantalized.
They argue that the economic crisis destroyed the cronyism, protectionism, and government regulation that had been crippling Asian business for decades, and it left in its wake a vast region of resilient and determined millions poised to wrest economic, diplomatic and military power from the West.
Thunder from the East is a riveting look at a complex region, a fascinating panoply of compelling characters, and a prophetic analysis from arguably the West's most informed and intelligent writers on Asia.
I recommend the following books:
1. How Will You Measure Your Life- Clayton M. Christensen, James Allworth, and Karen Dillon.
2. Emotional Intelligence(Working with Emotional Intelligence)-Daniel Goleman
3. Thunder from the East-Nicholas D.Kristof & Sheryl WuDunn

Some ancient crustaceans put so much energy into enlarging their genitals that they became extinct.
Many animals evolve traits that appeal to potential mates — through a process called sexual selection — sometimes developing exaggerated or cumbersome features. Whether such adaptations boost or limit a species' chance of survival is tricky to establish in studies of extinct species, because gender is not always evident from fossils.
Gene Hunt at the National Museum of Natural History in Washington DC and his colleagues studied the fossil record of small, chalky-shelled crustaceans called ostracods, some of which survive today. To accommodate their sex organs, the males' shells are more elongated than the females', making it easy to identify an individual's sex.
The researchers found that ostracod species whose males evolved particularly large sex organs were much more likely to have become extinct than those with more-modest genitalia. Expending energy on physical flourishes for the sake of sexual selection could limit species' ability to respond to change, making them more vulnerable to extinction, as well as to threats from invasive species, climate change and human activities, the authors say.

As a full-service pharmacy, we can deliver a broad range of medications, vitamins, and over-the-counter meds (OTCs) in various forms. All our medications are sourced from US wholesalers registered with the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP).
Daily meds
We sort your daily medications into packets by time of day. Each packet is designed to open easily, and is printed with the time, day, and medications inside.
Bottled meds
We deliver as-needed prescriptions or anything you prefer in a bottle along with your PillPack. If you prefer all your medications in bottles, we can do that too.
Other prescription items
We can include items that come in other forms, like inhalers, eye drops, and creams. We can also deliver medications that need to be dispensed in their original packaging, like birth control.
Refrigerated meds
We package refrigerated medications separately from your monthly PillPack. We expedite these shipments in temperature-controlled packaging.
Vitamins and over-the-counter meds (OTCs)
You can get vitamins and OTCs with or without a prescription. Your doctor can send us prescriptions for OTCs along with the rest of your medications. Or, if you're paying out-of-pocket, you can order them directly from your online account:
- Enter a medication name into the 'Add a New Vitamin or OTC' block on your account homepage
- Select an item from the search result list
- Choose whether you want to receive it 'In Packets' or a 'Separate Bottle,' then answer a few questions about the details
- Review the monthly price, then click 'Order Medication'
Please note: We require a prescription to fill certain OTCs, like Sudafed, needles, and lancets.
Medications we can't deliver
- Schedule II medications are highly regulated. Due to DEA regulations, we're unable to fill Schedule II prescriptions at this time. Narcotics such as oxycodone and non-narcotic medications like Adderall aren't available and need to be filled through another pharmacy.
- Compounded medications combine or alter ingredients to create a personalized medication or dose. PillPack by Amazon Pharmacy doesn't currently provide compounded medications.
- Medical equipment like braces, insulin pumps, and CPAP supplies can sometimes be covered by insurance if your doctor prescribes them. But you'll need to get them from a medical supply company. We recommend checking with your insurance to find a supplier that's in your network.
Note: Prescriptions for controlled substances can only be accepted via E-Scribe

For the second year, Linda Vermaat works as start-up scout for the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge. During the submission period from 1 March until 1 June, she literally roams the earth in search of bright people with smart ideas. Recently, she travelled to South Africa and South America and her next stop is China. In between her trips we were able to meet up with her to hear about how it's going.
A finalist of the 2014 Postcode Lottery Green Challenge, Dutch technology provider Bluerise has developed cutting edge energy technology to harness the ocean's power. Their Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is a renewable energy technology that uses the natural temperature difference in oceans to produce clean, reliable electricity, day and night, all year-round. It can become a substantial part of the future sustainable energy mix. We talked to Diego Acevedo about Bluerise's commercial rollout and their first projects in the Caribbean.
As of today, the 12th edition of the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge has kicked off. Green start-ups from all over the world can submit their green business plans. There is a total of €1 million in combined prize money available for the five best start-ups, of which €500,000 is intended for the winner. The competition has expanded to become one of the largest annual sustainability competitions in the world.
"We always refer to 'before' and 'after' the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge, it has changed everything."
Land Life Company's main goal is to restore 2 billion hectares of degraded land by planting trees. In about half of this land nature will not return without human intervention. We talked to Charlotte Jongejan, Head of Marketing & Communications, about how the company is growing. And how it managed to create a fruitful business model from the demand for more meaningful carbon offsetting.
Start-up scout Linda Vermaat of the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge reaches all corners of the globe to promote our sustainable competition. She has some recommendations for any green initiative to improve their entry and impress the jury. Learn from her insights and find out why it is a great idea to submit your proposal for the 2018 edition of the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge.
The Dutch start-up Ioniqa Technologies from Eindhoven was a finalist of the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge in 2016 and won €100.000. Ioniqa Technologies is the inventor of a circular solution for all PET waste in the world, based on a sound business case. We spoke to founder and CEO Tonnis Hooghoudt to hear about Ioniqa's exciting recent developments, since participating in the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge.
After participating in the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge, winners and finalists get the opportunity to apply for additional investment from the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge Fund, managed by DOEN Foundation. We talked to Daan Laméris, investment manager at DOEN, about how the fund can enable companies to grow and scale up.
The Rwandan start-up EarthEnable won the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge 2017. During the final, co-founder Gayatri Datar (32) impressed the international jury with her sustainable alternative for cement to replace dirt floors. As the winner, she received a cheque of €500,000 to further develop her green innovation. Two months after the final we talked to Gayatri, to hear what has been happening since winning the competition.
The five finalists of the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge win a minimum of € 100,000 each. The runner-up receives € 200,000 and the winner takes the grand prize of € 500,000. But it takes more than prize money alone to become successful and create impact. Therefore all five finalists get to participate with several team members in the Green Challenge Deep Dive. This tailored accelerator program is organised by Rockstart, on behalf of the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge. We talked to Karin van Soest, Program Manager at Rockstart, about how they help the start-ups grow.
Sustainable and inexpensive alternative for cement to replace dirt floors improves lives and cuts CO2 emissions
The Rwandan start-up EarthEnable is the winner of the Postcode Lottery Green Challenge 2017. During the finale, co-founder Gayatri Datar impressed the international jury with her sustainable alternative for cement to replace dirt floors. As the winner, she receives a cheque of €500,000 to further develop her green innovation. The runner-up prize of €200,000 goes to the biodegradable alternative for plastic by the Danish start-up Pond. This year, the other three finalists were also surprised to each receive €100,000. This brings the total prize pool of one of the biggest sustainability competitions in the world to €1 million.

FHFA issues final rule setting capital requirements for Federal Home Loan Banks.
The Federal Housing Finance Agency has finalized a rule setting capital requirements for Federal Home Loan Banks, carrying over most of the existing Federal Housing Finance Board regulations, but revising the credit risk component of the risk-based capital requirement, as well as the limitations on extensions of unsecured credit. The final rule revises the table numbers to align with the Federal Register's new formatting standards, which were revised after publication of the proposed rule. The rule is effective Jan. 1, 2020.
The proposed rule kept most of the Federal Housing Finance Board regulations the same, revising the rules for the credit risk component of the risk-based capital requirement and the limitations on extensions of unsecured credit, removing provisions referring to Nationally Recognized Statistical Ratings Organizations.
The final rule includes the following revisions:
- removing requirements that banks calculate credit risk capital charges and unsecured credit limits based on ratings issued by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization, instead banks must use their own internal rating methodology;
- revising percentages used in the tables to calculate the credit risk capital charges for advances and non-mortgage assets—FHFA retains the percentages used in the existing table to calculate the capital charges for mortgage-related assets, but revises the approach to identify the appropriate percentage within the table;
- revising the table numbers in the final rule to align with the Federal Register's new formatting standards, which were revised after publication of the proposed rule.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano Doesn't Know What Anti-Jihadist Bloggers Have Known For Years
Specifically, that one of her own appointees, Mohamed Elibiary, is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. Jihad Watch, Atlas Shrugs, and even The Jawa Report warned about this man as far back as 2004.Had the Department of Homeland Security ran a simple Google search on his name, they would have seen the danger in appointing this man any security clearance within the department. At a hearing on October 26, 2011 - just two days ago, Napolitano feigns ignorance at Elibiary's radical ties:
"A man can marry a girl younger than nine years of age, even if the girl is still a baby being breastfed. A man, however is prohibited from having intercourse with a girl younger than nine, other sexual acts such as foreplay, rubbing, kissing and sodomy is allowed. A man having intercourse with a girl younger than nine years of age has not committed a crime, but only an infraction, if the girl is not permanently damaged. If the girl, however, is permanently damaged, the man must provide for her all her life. But this girl will not count as one of the man's four permanent wives. He also is not permitted to marry the girl's sister."Flyer image from that conference below the fold.

The Open University of the United Kingdom is a distance-teaching university with no entrance requirements; modules are available world wide. This paper presents a novel approach to the teaching of introductory Computing and IT at the University (level 1 / first-year bachelor's degree). The new module covers: digitization; elementary programming; fixed and mobile communication networks; webpage design; the Internet of Things; and socio-technological aspects of ICT (such as the 'information society', gender issues, health care, and the 'digital divide'). The rationale and structure of the course are presented, with an outline of the content and assessment strategy. Major aims of the new module are: to improve skills development; redress the current gender imbalance in the subject area at the Open University; and improve general completion and progression rates. The module also makes widespread use of on-line activities and forums in support of learning and the development of a sense of a 'community at a distance'.

Legal Issues with Membership Policies
If anyone has suggestions for changes to this webpage, please send email to Paul M. Bessel at paulb'at'bessel.org
Freemasons and other organizations have policies that determine who can become a member. However, sometimes these policies can be found to violate provisions of the U.S. or State Constitutions, and sometimes Congress or a State government can adopt a law that requires organizations' membership policies to change. When a change comes as the result of Constitutional challenge, someone has to start the process by filing a lawsuit. When it comes as the result of a law, a government agency, or in some cases an individual, can start the process either in an administrative agency or in a court, federal or state. Another way in which change can come about, and has in the case of other associations, is if some members of the group violate the group's membership policies, and the group then takes disciplinary action against them, which in turn is challenged in the courts.
Several questions are reasonable for Masons who think about our membership policies:
1. Is it likely that anyone will file a lawsuit to seek to force Freemasons to change our membership policies in any way? Is it likely that a Masonic group would violate current membership policies, possibly by admitting women, and if so, would a Grand Lodge take action against them, and if so, would those against whom the disciplinary action was taken challenge it in court?
2. Are there state or federal laws that could be relied upon to use in challenging the membership policies of Freemasons?
3. If Freemasons' membership policies were challenged, would provisions of the U.S. or State constitutions support the challenge, or would they support retention of these membership policies?
It might be useful to discuss these questions in reverse order.
Freedom of Association: (1) To express a viewpoint, or (2) An intimate organization
Some people rely, without more, on "freedom of association." They feel this would automatically guarantee that Freemasons membership policies would be upheld in any lawsuit, because Americans have the freedom to associate with anyone they wish, and therefore can limit membership in Masonic lodges in any way they wish. This is incorrect.
The Supreme Court has said:
"Our decisions have referred to constitutionally protected "freedom of association" in two distinct senses. In one line of decisions, the Court has concluded that choices to enter into and maintain certain intimate human relationships must be secured against undue intrusion by the State because of the role of such relationships in safeguarding the individual freedom that is central to our constitutional scheme. In this respect, freedom of association receives protection as a fundamental element of personal liberty. In another set of decisions, the Court has recognized a right to associate for the purpose of engaging in those activities protected by the First Amendment - speech, assembly, petition for the redress of grievances, and the exercise of religion. The Constitution guarantees freedom of association of this kind as an indispensable means of preserving other individual liberties." Roberts v. United States Jaycees, 468 U.S. 609 (1984)
This is very important. In some cases, a group has a message, and those who oppose that message can be kept out. In other cases, a group is involved in "certain intimate human relationships" and thus can restrict membership.
Is Freemasonry in either of these categories?
Expressive Association
The most recent case about "expressive association" is Boy Scouts of America et al. v. Dale, decided in June 2000. The Supreme Court decided that the Boy Scouts had a message that included the fact that in their opinion homosexuality was not a proper. "Given that the Boy Scouts engages in expressive activity, we must determine whether the forced inclusion of Dale as an assistant scoutmaster would significantly affect the Boy Scouts' ability to advocate public or private viewpoints. This inquiry necessarily requires us first to explore, to a limited extent, the nature of the Boy Scouts' view of homosexuality." The Court ruled that the forced inclusion of a homosexual would affect the Boy Scouts' ability to advocate its views against homosexuality.
Would this apply to Freemasonry? Does Freemasonry advocate that women are not proper, and thus that inclusion of women in Masonic lodges would prevent the organization from advocating its views against women?
Intimate Organization
The most recent Supreme Court decision on the concept of an intimate organization, or one that is truly private, is New York State Club Assn. v. New York City, 487 U.S. 1 (1988). In that case, New York City's Human Rights Law forbade discrimination based on race, creed, sex, and other grounds by any place of public accommodation, resort or amusement, but exempted any institution, club or place of accommodation which is in its nature distinctly private. It would not be considered private if it had more than 400 members or under other circumstances.
Factors in considering whether an organization is truly "private" for legal reasons, to withstand any legal challenge based on "freedom of association" for private organizations, include size, purpose, policies, selectivity, congeniality, and other characteristics.

Mr Marco Scarci has specialist expertise in video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), having spent his fellowship receiving specific training at the internationally famous University of Toronto. VATS is a much less invasive way of removing lung tissue compared with traditional open-chest surgery.
Only available at specialised thoracic surgery centres, VATS lung resections are usually performed using two to four small incisions. However, as a result of Mr Scarci's quest to further reduce the invasiveness of surgery, all his VATS procedures are now done through a single three-centimetre cut. A tiny video camera is inserted and the images are projected on a video monitor to guide use of the surgical instruments.
Benefits of VATS
VATS patients
VATS is most likely to be appropriate for patients with early-stage cancer. VATS may not be appropriate if the surgery would be particularly complex because of the location or other characteristics of the cancer, or for particularly bulky disease.
'I do things for my patients that I would want someone to do for me. If I needed thoracic surgery I would find somebody who could do VATS for me.'
Mr Marco Scarci

In four months' time, he gained 25 pounds and felt lost without the competition and camaraderie he'd had with his teammates. His confidence was at an all-time low, but then, he was introduced to Isagenix.
How Jennifer Started Living the Life She'd Always Dreamed Of
At 190 pounds, Jennifer never would have believed it if someone had told her that she could be healthy again, feel amazing inside and out, or move like she did in her 20s. But, now, she's living that life. Today, Jennifer looks great and feels even better, and she's never going back to how things were before. Find out how she did it.
Meet Your 2019 Canada IsaBody Challenge Finalists!
At Isagenix, we LOVE the IsaBody Challenge® because it allows us the privilege of watching participants transform their bodies and their lives through each 16-week journey. Now, it's time to do one of the things we love most — announce our latest finalists. Everyone who participated in this Challenge had an absolutely incredible transformation, so as always, choosing our finalists was a challenge in and of itself.
How the Doran Family Lost 300 Pounds Together
Have you ever tried to lose weight with the intention of making a change for good, only to hit a plateau, stop altogether, and end up in the same place you started (or even heavier than before)? Don't worry — you're not alone. Mike Doran and his family have been there. But not anymore! Find out how they changed their lives with Isagenix.
How Christine Gets Stronger Every Single Day
Before Isagenix, Christine was simply existing. She wasn't happy, felt humiliated about her weight, and had fallen into the trap we all know too well: the constant comparison to others. This left Christine uncomfortable in her own skin and with absolutely no self-love. Her own health had fallen low on her list of priorities until one day, she decided enough was enough.
How One Dad Got His Body Back
Before joining Isagenix, Adam was running his family's 70-year-old towing company, convenience store, and gas station – all of which operates 24/7. Being on the go all the time, the only way he knew to fuel his body was to eat fast food. At least this was how he used to eat. Until his wife introduced him to Isagenix.
Customers Featured in PEOPLE's 'Half Their Size'!
We all know losing weight isn't easy, whether it's 5 pounds, 10 pounds, or 100 pounds. It takes hard work and determination and even more perseverance when things get tough and you just want to give up. But, what if you lost even more than 100 pounds or lost half your body weight? It might sound impossible, but we know two women who proved it can be done.

What should you leave at home? Most students tell us they brought too much stuff! Do you need 4 towels or will 1 towel do? Can you wait and bring your winter boots and coat after your next trip home?

Taste the amazing flavors of the Aconcagua Valley on this private, full-day wine tour. Visit two vineyards and learn about the wine-making process.
On this Aconcagua Valley Private Wine Tour, you will tour two vineyards on the slopes of the Andes Mountains: Errazuriz and San Esteban. You will learn all about the wine-making process in this region and the history of the two vineyards. Then, taste their best wines while admiring stunning mountain views. Join us for a perfect, relaxing day in one of Chile's best wine regions!
Duration: 9 hours (9:00 am – 18:00 pm)
Start and end location: Santiago
Availability: Daily, except on Chilean holidays (Errazuriz Vineyard is closed on Saturdays and Sundays. On these days, we will instead visit the Inca Lagoon)
Miscellaneous: This tour has a minimum of 2 travelers. If you have fewer than 2, contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we will try to find a group for you.
You will first be picked up at your hotel and then driven to the Aconcagua Valley. Your first stop of the tour will be the San Esteban Vineyard, located on the eastern mountainous edge of the Aconcagua Valley. The San Esteban Vineyard is famous for its Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Carmenere, among others.
The vineyard is able to produce high-quality wine due to its hillside planting strategy, using the rocky soil and sun exposure to make grapes rich in structure and character. You will be able to tour the vineyard, learn about their method of planting vines on the hillsides of the Andes, and enjoy a wine tasting session.
Lunch will be at a rustic countryside restaurant to try out some traditional Chilean dishes. Then, you'll head towards Errazuriz Winery, a stunning vineyard on the western slopes of the Andes Mountains. Here you will learn about its history and how it has evolved. Places in the vineyard you will visit include the underground cellars, a lookout point, and the new Icon Wine Cellar, where you will have a wine tasting of the vineyard's premium collection.
After you book your experience, you will receive a confirmation email from us confirming that your payment went through. You will then be connected directly to the tour operator, in case you have any further questions. We are also happy to answer any questions about the tour, or travel in general in your country of destination.

Here, the landscape on the edge of Georgian Bay gives way from cottage country and pastoral rolling farmland in the south to gradually merge with solid rock landscapes towards the Great Lakes. The Boreal Forest stretches from here across the vast Canadian Shield. The North Shore route above Lake Superior is one of Canada's most scenic drives.

Fly tipping is a blight on the lovely landscape of Hertfordshire so working with our partners, we've been campaigning to make making sure everyone is aware of their responsibilities when disposing of waste.
Led by the Hertfordshire Fly tipping Group, we're encouraging everyone to be vigilant and inform their local council of any fly-tipping in their area, or to report any suspicion of fly-tipping activity.
Reporting fly tipping
You can report fly tipping to East Herts Council at www.eastherts.gov.uk/flytipping, email firstname.lastname@example.com or phone 01279 655261 (Mon-Fri, 9-5pm)
In your report please include as many details as possible, including location and type of rubbish that has been dumped and details of vehicle/people seen in the area if possible.
Preventing fly tipping
Everyone has a legal 'duty of care' to ensure your household or business waste is disposed of correctly.
You can be prosecuted even if your waste is fly tipped by someone else on your behalf.
If it's YOUR waste, it's YOUR responsibility. Always use a registered waste carrier to collect your rubbish.
Let's S.C.R.A.P fly tipping
Suspect all waste carriers. Don't let them take your rubbish until they provide proof of registration. Note their vehicle's registration plate.
Check that a waste carrier is registered with the Environment Agency.
Refuse any unexpected offers to have your rubbish taken away.
Ask how your rubbish will be disposed of - seek evidence of this.
Paperwork must be obtained: a proper invoice, waste transfer note or receipt, including a description of the waste being removed and the waste carrier's contact details.
You can report fly tipping via there website eastherts.gov.uk,
email email@example.com or phone 01279 655261

The 2019 NBA All Star Saturday Night was filled with exciting moments from start to finish with Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics winning the Skills Challenge, Joe Harris of the Brooklyn Nets winning the Three-Point Contest and Hamidou Diallo winning the Dunk Contest.
Three-Point Contest
Joe Harris of the Brooklyn Nets upset Steph Curry, a native of the host city Charlotte, North Carolina, in the final round to win the 3-point Contest on Saturday. He made every money shot on his last rack to catapult him to victory. He narrowly beat out Curry 26-24.
The upset maybe should have been expected as Harris is a four year pro shooting 47(!) percent from the 3-point line, compared to a 44 percent mark shot by Steph Curry before the All-Star Break.
Harris is having a career best season with the Nets where he is averaging a career high 13.9 points per game and is a solid contributor to the team.
Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas Mavericks
Damian Lillard, Portland Trailblazers
Kemba Walker, Charlotte Hornets
Khris Middleton, Milwaukee Bucks
Seth Curry, Portland Trail Blazers
Buddy Hield, Sacramento Kings
Danny Green, Toronto Raptors
Taco Bell Skills Challenge
Jayson Tatum took home the 2019 NBA Skills Challenge on a desperation half-court shot.
Tatum, a second year forward for the Boston Celtics advanced through victories against Mike Conley of the Memphis Grizzlies, Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets, and Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks in the final round
The Skills Challenge is suited for players that can pass and shoot threes. It is broken down into dribbling through obstacles, then passing the ball through a hoop, running back down the court for a layup, and shooting a three on the opposite side of the court.
Much like the current style of play in the NBA, winning or losing ultimately came down to who's three would fall.
In the end it was Tatum's, as he pulled up from half court and banked a three-pointer to put him on top.
Tatum is a second year pro on a loaded Boston Celtics team and is seen as one of the most promising young players in the league.
He's averaging 16.5 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists in a primary role on a Boston team that is primed for a deep playoff run.
Other notable matchups included Trae Young defeating D'Aaron Fox in round one and Trae Young defeating his competition for Rookie of the Year, Luka Dončić in round two
Mike Conley, Memphis Grizzlies
Nikola Vučević, Orlando Magic
Luka Dončić, Dallas Mavericks
D'Aaron Fox, Sacramento Kings
Nikola Jokić, Denver Nuggets
Kyle Kuzma, Los Angelos Lakers
Trae Young, Atlanta Hawks
Jaysom Tatum, Boston Celtics
2019 Slam Dunk Contest
John Collins dunked over an airplane, Dennis Smith Jr. dunked over Rap Artist J-Cole, and Miles Bridges dazzled with a 360 tomahawk but all paled in comparison to Hamidou Diallo of the Oklahoma City Thunder, who dunked over Shaquille O'Neal to take home the trophy.
Diallo dunked over O'Neal and stuck his elbow into the rim, an homage to Vince Carter's infamous Honey Dip Dunk from the 2000 NBA Slam Dunk Contest.
As he was hanging from the rim, he ripped his jersey open to reveal a Superman costume underneath, an obvious nod to the giant he jumped over.
Diallo, a second year pro, also hyped the crowd with an windmill dunk off of an ally-oop from teammate Russell Westbrook, he also had a self-assisted dunk where he rose above the rim (no 2pac) and slammed it down.
Diallo dunked over Atlanta rap artist Quavo in his final dunk to narrowly defeat Dennis Smith Jr by two points.
John Collins, Atlanta Hawks
Dennis Smith Jr., New York Knicks
Miles Bridges, Charlotte Hornets
Hamidou Diallo, Oklahoma City Thunder
NBA All Star Saturday Night is an annual event that precedes and serves as anticipation for the All-Star Game.
The 2019 NBA All Star Game will take place Sunday February 17 at 8PM E.S.T on TNT where Team Giannis will face off against Team Lebron.

Daniel Batchelor
Global Head of Corporate Communications, Amadeus IT Group
Lean IT differs from that of lean manufacturing, though the revolution in vehicle assembly some 30 years ago still holds relevance for lean strategies in IT today.
In the 1980s, Toyota led the way in the transformation of automobile manufacturing by constantly refining its regime of product and process improvement. They engaged in a continuous drive to improve processes. In assembling components, it eliminated inefficiency, waste, bottlenecks, and as much inventory as possible, thereby eliminating defects from finished products.
Toyota along with other Japanese car firms attacked corporate silos and the atomized competences that went with them. They formed multidisciplinary teams of engineers and production workers that worked across silos and fused together varied skills – not only on the assembly line, but also in new product development. The new streamlined arrangements of the Japanese carmakers gave rise to the phrase 'lean'. The idea was to dramatically cut costs, shorten the time it took to bring new products to market, and raise profits. The effect in practice was to cause consternation among Western carmakers – until they adopted lean techniques themselves.
The focus on what customers wanted was codified in a bestselling bookLean thinking, which popularised the terms 'lean' and notable suggested how the travel sector could cut delays and queues for passengers.
For the travel industry, leanness begins with front-line, customer-facing human beings – their brains and their morale. What counts is the ability of staff always to add to customer value – by accurately sensing what the customer's true purpose is, and anticipating and responding to that purpose in a rapid and supple manner.
Lean IT, a human creation, is no technical matter. It is about inverting organizational hierarchies – recreating middle and senior management as a support for the cross-functional operational teams that are at the sharp end of customer pressure.
It is frontline employees who make the critical choices that determine whether the customer experience is unimpeded or exasperating. Lean services and Lean IT mean what Wolfgang Krips, Amadeus executive vice president of Global Operations, describes as 'putting the power to make decisions where the work is, and where it can be improved'.

Green Planet Laundry has developed an innovative solution with drought becoming a harsh reality in the Western Cape region, water is an extremely valuable and scarce resource.
South Africans have implemented various water-saving techniques, from using grey water to flush toilets, to taking two-minute showers and installing rain water harvesting tanks. One area of water usage that is particularly difficult to cut back on, is laundry. Regular washing machines can use up to 50 litres of valuable municipal drinking water per cycle. That said, refraining from washing our clothes is not an option!
Unlike other Commercial Laundries, the Cape Town based Green Planet Laundry does not tap into the city's precious municipal water supply. The Water used at Green Planet Laundry is 100% ground water (borehole). Additionally, 50% of the grey water used in their machines is recycled, therefore further reducing required ground water.
Water is extracted from a borehole then purified using a custom built water purification system to remove any contaminants. The water is then ozonated for sanitation and effectiveness in the laundry system and stored in a supply tank, from where it is pumped into Green Planet Laundry's efficient and technologically advanced washing machines. Ozone is dissolved into the wash basin throughout the entire wash cycle.
Benefits includes: O3 oxidises soils and eliminates microbes in the linen, leaving your clothing clean, sanitised and soft; it acts as a biocide, controlling odours and killing viruses and bacteria; and linen life is increased by up to 50%, while Fabrics feel softer, and are noticeable whiter.
Green Planet Laundry uses absolutely no municipal drinking water in the washing process. The grey water used by Green Planet Laundry's washing machines is recycled through the filtration plant, approximately 50% is reused. Due to the Ozone infusion process, less detergent is required to clean and disinfect clothing and less water is required for the wash and rinse cycles. The entire water purification system including the borehole will be powered by solar energy making their complete water purification system environmentally neutral.
Cape Town residents can now experience the convenience of sending their laundry to be cleaned without the guilt of wasting natural resources. Water restrictions in the Western Cape are becoming a permanent fixture, and this is a perfect opportunity through which residents can decrease the number of litres consumed by their household.
Green Planet Laundry services are convenient and time-saving, making it the perfect solution for Hotels, Restaurants, Salons etc. as well as working mothers, students or anyone who wishes there were more hours in a day. Green Planet Laundry offer a same-day door-to-door collection and delivery service, meaning you'll receive your clean laundry on the same day it was sent in, without even having to leave your home or office. Green Planet Laundry services all the greater Cape Town areas from Strand to Paarl to Duynefontein to Cape Point.
