Thank God… The man's legacy was starting to diminish fighting all these fights that he didn't need to be in and didn't add to his brand or anything.
He is a legend. And he ended his career in the coolest way. In front of a crowd of his hometown fans in Pensacola, Florida in the same arena he made his pro debut in in 1989 fresh off the 1988 Seoul Olympics.
People forget that Roy Jones Jr. suffered one of the biggest robberies of all time when he "lost" to the local Park Si-Hun and instead was given the silver medal in the Seoul Games. Oh wait no one does? Ya, because it was the biggest robbery of all time.
The man may not have a perfect record but he is one of the best American boxers in history. He'll be forever remembered for how could both paint the canvas with his beautiful footwork, but also mop up the floor with his opponents. He'll be remembered for his entertaining trickery and how he dominated multiple weight classes. Oh and that regrettable bathroom selfie (or 2) he took.
Also big shout out to RJJ for making the one pair of Jordans I've ever owned. Those were sick!
Roy Jones Jr. finished a 66-9 career on Thursday with his final fight where he defeated Scott Sigman.
Saturday Night!
February 10
At Cancun, Mexico (beIN Sports Espanol):
- Miguel Berchelt vs. Maxwell Awuku, 12 rounds, for Berchelt's WBC junior lightweight title
- Jaime Munguia vs. Jose Carlos Paz, 10 rounds, middleweights
- Pedro Campa vs. Ivan Alvarez, 10 rounds, junior welterweights
Berchelt is someone you should be watching, it's too bad you don't know what beIN is. Or maybe you do, which is great, cuz I don't.
At Park City, Kansas (CBS Sports Net, tape delayed):
- Nico Hernandez vs. Jozsef Ajtai, 8 rounds, flyweights
- Cesar Soriano vs. Javonte Starks, 6 rounds, welterweights
Nico Hernandez is a 2016 US Bronze medalist who is off to a good start. This is a name you should keep on your radar early. He's with a promoter that has had most of his fights on CBS Sports Net, but hopefully he can have a shot on some more widely viewed networks soon.
Other News
Rumors that Vasyl Lomachenko and Jorge Linarez will fight. This is coming from Loma's mouth at a press conference. Nothing signed yet. Fresh rumor.
So that's a rumor of a couple of hours ago.
If we go back to an old rumor of 2 whole days ago it was supposed to be Loma fighting Manny Pacquiao. Both rumors should keep us tuned though.
And one other rumor. Roy Jones Jr. would make a comeback for one fight only …Anderson Silva.
JJR's retirement fight was the first boxing match on the UFC Fight Pass broadcasting platform, so we know Jones knows Dana White.

HOOVER, Ala. – Tennessee coach Butch Jones isn't ready to name his starting quarterback.
In a conference where most of the quarterback jobs are settled, the Volunteers are one of the few exceptions following the graduation of Joshua Dobbs, who started 35 games during his career.
Tennessee is weighing two options: junior Quinten Dormady and redshirt freshman Jarrett Guarantano. Dormandy completed 11 of 17 passes last season as Dobbs' backup.
"The competition at that position has really elevated the play of everyone else around them," Jones said. "You have two kind of distinct, different personalities. You have a young individual in Jarrett Guarantano who is very energetic, very demonstrative, very passionate, very, very talented. And then Quinten Dormady is a coach's son who has kind of been in our football program."
Jones didn't rule out a two-quarterback system.
"If both players earn the right to play, we'll play both quarterbacks," he said.
Jones called the unsettled competition "a good problem to have."
"We will not name a starting quarterback until the time is right," he said. "I can't tell you where that is. That will be decided obviously on the field when we start training camp."
Some other Tennessee media day nuggets …The loss of Dobbs isn't the only example of change within Tennessee's program. Jones promoted Larry Scott from tight ends coach to offensive coordinator after his former OC, Mike DeBord, left to become Indiana's offensive coordinator. Jones also has five new assistants: defensive line coach Brady Hoke, special teams coordinator/defensive backs coach Charlton Warren, quarterbacks coach Mike Canales, wide receivers coach Kevin Beard and offensive line coach Walt Wells. Hoke is perhaps the most intriguing staff addition. He was the head coach at Michigan from 2011-14 after stints at San Diego State and Ball State. Hoke served one season as Oregon's defensive coordinator in 2016 but was not retained after Mark Helfrich's firing. "I love coach Hoke. He's awesome," defensive lineman Kendal Vickers said. "He comes from a head coaching background. He wants to get to know you as a person, not just a football player." So, is all the staff turnover a good or bad thing? "Pros and cons with the changes," offensive lineman Jashon Robertson said. "You get new faces, a new amount of enthusiasm with kind of a fresh type atmosphere. I'm sure we've all been through change at some point. There's just that freshness in the room. At the same time, things change, but the expectation remains the same. We're here to win games." Tennessee was expected to win a lot of games in 2016, when the Volunteers were favored to win the East. The Volunteers put themselves in prime position by starting 5-0, including wins over Florida and Georgia, but finished 9-4, including 4-4 in the SEC, and Florida won the East. Losses to South Carolina and Vanderbilt foiled UT's East title hopes. "I don't view it as a disappointment," Jones said of the season. "The way I view it is we didn't accomplish everything we set ourselves out to." Tennessee hasn't won the East since 2007. Tennessee has won nine games in back-to-back seasons. That's the first time that's happened since 2006 (9-4) and 2007 (10-4). "We're one of only three programs" in the SEC "that have won nine games two years in a row," Jones said. Alabama and Florida are the others.

Average rating: 5 stars out of 5
My mum bought me this dining experience as a gift for my travels, and it was so much fun! Even though I'm not vegan I didn't feel unwelcome at all, quite the opposite, Patrick and Karen are fantastic hosts and the food was to die for - plus I met loads of amazing people who I hope to stay in touch with!
I've done a lot of solo travelling in my life so I'm always on the lookout for interesting experiences that will introduce me to new people, whether they're local to the area or tourists like me. Patrick and Karen's pop-up vegan dining experience is ideal for this exact situation, as it's as much about the people sitting round the table as it is the glorious food. I'm not vegan so when Karen invited me to their next party I was a little apprehensive, but rest assured you don't need to follow the lifestyle to feel welcome at the event - you might change your diet by the end though!
At 7pm I arrived at Karen and Patrick's home in Green Point and was welcomed with an apple cider and cinnamon cocktail - very festive for the middle of April! Tonight's event was quite a large one so there were plenty of people mingling and getting to know each other, around 18 people in total in Patrick and Karen's open plan kitchen and dining area. The bottle of wine I'd brought was labelled with my name and slotted into a cooling jacket, my coat was hung on the coat rack, and everyone was animatedly chatting with one another - it was going to be a good night!
The long dining table is set with place names, so we all took our seats and greeted our neighbours (don't worry, if you came as a pair or group you will be sat together). In my immediate vicinity were a family from Germany, a couple from Holland and their friend, and another couple who share their time between Cape Town and New York. Once we were settled, Patrick gave a little welcome speech and explained the history behind the creation of their pop-up dining experience, before inviting us all to say a few words about ourselves as a way of breaking the ice, during which the first course was served; Tartare de Legumes, a sliced pickled vegetable dish on a bed of rocket - delicious!
Having swiftly munched through the vegetable tartare, the next course was a light and fruity vegan Waldorf salad, with a mayonnaise that actually tasted like real mayonnaise! The night was clearly off to a great start, and as the wine flowed we all became more relaxed and began getting to know each other better, learning about our home countries and cultures.
After a quick break for a group photo we were served the main course; thick slices of nut roast with a foamy sweetcorn sauce - keeping with the slightly festive theme! The nut roast was smooth, spongy and full of flavour, definitely the kind of dish I'd serve up on Christmas Day if I were throwing a vegan party (not that I would since my cooking leaves a lot to be desired). By this point we were all feeling very merry and chatting like we'd known each other for years, exactly the kind of atmosphere you want for a communal dining experience!
Patrick and Karen always serve up a trio of desserts at their events, so this week we had a decadent chocolate brownie, a strawberry flavoured chocolate truffle, and a hearty apple crumble. I'm not a big chocolate fan (the horror, I know), but the brownie and truffle were truly divine, and the apple crumble was even better! It was served with a good dollop of vegan cream that, again, tasted just like regular cream. A triumph!
The fifth and final course was a cheese platter, complete with fresh figs, olives, crackers, jellies, and perhaps the biggest grapes I've ever seen in my life. There were five cheeses to choose from which were a mix of shop-bought and homemade, including a Boursin-type herbed cheese, a cheddar, a camembert, a smoked soft cheese, and a garlic soft cheese. They were all amazing but the camembert was definitely my favourite - I never would have known it was vegan.
By the end of the evening we were all thoroughly stuffed with great food and giggling like a bunch of schoolgirls, adding each other on Facebook and promising to keep in touch. That's what I love about these types of events, we're all brought together over a love of food and leave with new best friends! Huge thanks to Karen and Patrick for putting on an amazing experience, I'd highly recommend this event to foodies or as a great gift for travellers!

Chetan Bhagat is being much lashed out by critics for his new book , One Indian Girl. The book is about an Indian Girl, 25, who is a successful banker, works at Goldman Sachs in New York, has relationships and regular sex, makes envious amounts of money even by US Standards (next only to Data Scientists these days, haha). Sees herself as feminist (covert or overt doesn't matter!), and more so when her mother starts pressurizing her to get married. To aggravate the situation, she has a more than eager, extremely beauty-conscious (who like her sister is not nerd type, not much interested in studies, and always waiting for her Prince to come, whatever way she manages to find him!) sister.
I know just that much, as I've not read the book. I'm commenting on the book just by watching some Chetan Bhagat One Indian Girl interviews and reviews.
Blame it on the Marketing
Writing a book is much effort, it in essence doesn't entail writing, correcting the prose to an acceptable standard; it also requires marketing. Or ferocious marketing. You need to package a book, you see.
The marketing team for Mr. Bhagat, and Mr. Bhagat himself have decided to market the book as one all about Feminism. And that turned out to be the source of criticism. As it doesn't seem to conform to what even most Indian Girls will see as Feminism in India.
But… hold on for a second… the marketing ploy is good; as his huge and increasing fan base of mostly young men and women, will surely buy this book. And will not be much bothered by small inconsistencies wrt characterizations, such as, why nerd type, always studying girls will never be inclined to look good. Or for that matter, Radhika's age to be a successful banker. If Radhika is a banker, which primarily is a client relationship selling job, that too at Goldman Sachs, then why will she see herself somewhat less of an intelligent, if she has to wax her legs. Men who want to look dapper in such jobs do wax, manicure, do forehead, cheeks and shave their faces. Everyone likes to be good, more so if you want to impress the person in front of you, with selling just being a duty.
The book seems to be for Practicing and Non-Practicing Feminists Like Radhika. What does this mean? This means that the author here has a certain imagery of a person who's a card holder Feminist. That's someone having some sort of misandry (dislike for men) and as a consequence becoming a Feminist. If through Radhika, he wants to push forward his own brand of feminism, which's certainly not like some Card holder Feminist; then the World can have Malism on the other end of Feminism. Men who feel misogyny, and as a consequence are card-holders(Have I coined a new concept here!… I don't think misogyny is Opposite of Feminism, as it's like seeing just face of the coin).
Through Radhika, I think, the author wants to distance himself from feminism, and hence is talking about a person who's like majority of young men or women in any part of India (his book is for Indians, That's why India). From Radhika's characterization, it appears that the book is for those who want to study in India's premier Educational Institutions, have a prestigious job complemented by a heavy pay check or if not a job, are considered successful. If I understood the characterization to a decent degree, then the book will again be a best-seller, as even on the "Regular Sex" front, majority of young men and women may be divided into Practicing and Non-practicing Believers. That's even if they may not practice it before marriage, for any reason, they can still be called believers (that's it somewhere looms in their minds majority of the time).
Hence, rather than saying the book shares Chetan Bhagat's brand of Feminism, or Chetan Bhagat talking about Feminism, which is a tall claim to make based on what Feminism is (Feminism or the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes), we can say Chetan Bhagat is talking about an Indian Girl who sees herself as feminist or who's a feminist based on the Life she's living or the situation she's in.
It's All about what you believe, your Right is!
Talking of equality of genders is a difficult topic to discuss. Equally difficult is to discuss what gender equality means.
As gender equality is nothing but how you in person believes what Your Right is!
Take for instance Radhika in Chetan Bhagat's book. She works at one of the leading Global Investment Banks. At times, when she's too pissed off by her work and pressured by exceeding sales targets, she might think from a purely gender inequality perspective. She might even think all she's valued for is her looks and not her work. But at other times when she's happy she might be appreciating the attention. In the same way, if everyday she is tagged as an exceptional banker, then she will feel betrayed and may raise her flag of feminism, the moment she is over-looked for the next promotion. Chetan Bhagat, rightly points out what equality is for a Corporate Banker or Business Woman or a professional, doesn't equate to what it's for majority of women in India and World.
For majority of women, who have benefited and are benefiting from the movement of Feminism, it's to this day, the fight for basic human rights so that basic gender equality is met. In India right now, the feminism movement is busy helping a women get simplest of her human rights, such as supporting and help get legal backing to fight against domestic violence, her right to get money to feed her and the children in case her husband abandons her, or empowering her to have some voice in family etc.
Thus to conclude, Feminism right now in India is more or less restricted to helping poor, sometimes illiterate, sometimes helpless women get their basic gender and human rights. It has not reached to the levels, about which Mr. Bhagat is talking of wrt his book. Or he's talking about something, which can be anything but Feminism. No one in India right now, who's really working on ground for the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes, is advocating as to why Women professionals in most Companies are ignored for the top role or promotion to a decision-making role. As it can also be a question of eligibility or suitability for the role.
Thus rather than Feminism we must say the Chetan Bhagat's book is about a Girl, who sometimes feels like a feminist. At other times she doesn't has to. It's not that her definition of feminism is wrong, it's 360 degrees different from how it's understood in India and world over. Hence, lets leave aside Feminism, which is a real work aimed at advocating and fighting for women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes for those who're not getting even their basic rights. Getting sidelined for a top job in Company, being pressed by parents to marry are certainly not those topics, as men also face such situations.
One more thing, before concluding. Many a times, Top Business women such as Indira Nooyi, Sheryl Sandberg talk about feminism. Actually what they are talking about is not feminism, it's more about balancing the Work-life-family responsibilities. Most of the times this balancing act becomes too difficult. But, they are not Feminist issues in true sense, as rather than gender, they happen because women are often caring individuals. Hence, they will not want to work at the cost of their families, especially the children. Hence when they are told by the partner, in-laws, friends that they are not that perfect on family front, they rightly feel the exhaustion. Hence rather than feminism, it's more about discretion and taking decisions. The discretion while choosing a partner, delegating home duties and children responsibilities to the partner as well, putting her views clearly, putting her priorities clearly and having some coordination to get results. Feminism, will not help her.
I will try to read this book.

Italian Leg of Lamb
When this pleasantly seasoned roast appears on my Easter table, no one walks away hungry. Garlic, lemon juice and seasonings make each bite of this succulent lamb irresistible.
Total TimePrep: 10 min. + marinating Bake: 2-1/4 hours
Makes11 servings
- 1/2 to 2/3 cup lemon juice
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons ground mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 boneless leg of lamb (4 to 5 pounds)
- In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, oil and seasonings. Pour half of the marinade into a shallow dish; add lamb. Turn to coat; cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
- Drain and discard marinade from lamb. Place lamb fat side up on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 2-1/4 to 3 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium, a thermometer should read 140° for medium; medium-well, 145°), basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Weird Happenings
26 Oct 2009 at 12:57 »
Hi my name is Dawn, I'm new to the Forum but not new to the club. I'm the writer of Lincs/notts news.
I have a strange happening to report.
One of my section members gets himself into trouble with his neighbours every time he runs his Duggies (both pre & post war). What happens is that something to do with the old engines blacks out the TV screens of his neighbours TV's, but not his. He lives on the edge of a transmitter area (he thinks) & has noted that his TV aeriel points in a different direction to the others. When a friend calls round on his Dragonfly the same thing happens too!.
Has anyone heard of this happening before & more importantly (before he gets evicted by the neighbours) does anyone know of a cure?
Please let me know & i will pass on your advice to him.

Hi Dawn
You can get Clip on Ferrite RFI / EMI Filter for Noise Suppresion of electrical interference.
This unit just clip onto the TV Aerial lead.
They cost about £5 depending on make.

Thanks for that. I will pass that message on.
However we were looking for something to perhaps put on the bike as that would be cheaper than kitting out the whole street with things to stop their TV's going on the blink.

Hi Dawn,
This problem seems to be a symptom of the 'digital age'. Our old TV is fine when receiving an analogue signal but the picture breaks up or freezes when receiving a digital signal via a set top box if someone goes up the road on a 'twist and go' scooter. I have put it down to the unscreened ignition system as the problem does not occur with cars with the ignition shielded under the steel bonnet.

I hope the ferrite filter suggestion works although I have a suspicion it might not. If the interference is being picked up by the TV aerial then putting a ferrite around a screened TV downlead my not be terribly effective. However fitting a band pass filter in series with the lead may be more successful. I found the following on another forum (
) do take note of the marginal signal strength comments though:-
" I have the same interference problem as you do, and I have improved this greatly for little money or effort. I have a Nokia 221T freeview box in a poor signal area (<33% of maximum of the Nokia signal strength meter). I used to get brief screen freezes and sound dropouts and popping when a light switch was used, my boiler ignited (it is a modern one with no pilot light so it self ignites using a spark), if a car or moped went by, fridge door opening etc etc...
Now I get only occasional pixellation and the odd sound dropout but no screen freezes and sound popping is rare (which is nice as it is annoying).
How did I do this 'magic'? I simply fitted an inline RF coax passive bandpass filter. You lose some signal level (about 5% of the signal meter scale which might be a problem if you are in a marginal signal area), but happily interference is only a small issue for me nowadays. Light switches, fridges etc are no problem at all, and only some vehicles and my shredder can cause interference but it is much less frequent and severe than before. It has transformed my viewing experience. My shredder is still bad (but improved) but that is to be expected.
I got it from
, the part number is "APFILTER"
and it costs £3.055 plus vat and postage
(Mikerobe: they have gone up a bit since).
Obviously, I can't guarantee it will help anyone, but it really has helped me greatly. You just plug it inline with your aerial cable at the point where you connect the aerial lead into your freeview box.
I am also about to replace my cheapo loft aerial with a "DX8W" aerial from Antiference (about £26 from CPC, small acceptance angle, large forward gain, large front to back ratio, has a PCB balun and is only about 1m long so it will fit in my loft or won't blow about that much on your roof (which could give me signal dropouts as I am in a weak signal area with a small acceptance angle aerial).
I am also replacing my coax with the "100" type (mine is DS100 but I think it is the same as CT100). This is the 'double insulated' type which means it has a braided screen (like the cheapo stuff has), but it also has a solid foil which should give much better screening. I believe that the braid gives less than 85% coverage (I've also read it is nearer 65%), so I am hopeful that the superior screening area (100%!) will remove the rest of the interference(!). There is less attenuation in this cable also (compared to 'low loss coax'), but I don't see that as a great factor since my cable run is only about 10m (although I am in a weak signal area so you never know...!).
I have read elsewhere that people have tried pointing their aerial a little upwards, and I can well believe that that can help for some people."
I also found this rather useful PDF about selecting spark plugs for Vespa and Lambretta scooters which might help explain the issue some. Apologies for the tinyurl but I couldnt find a better link from google
I Quote a portion here:-
"To make matters worse, many of the spark plugs being sold today have been designed for modern and not vintage engines and are fitted with an internal resistor that actually reduces the voltage to the spark plug and so reduces the spark size. The main purpose of this resistor is to reduce RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) and so protect modern vehicles electronic devices, such as engine management systems, inbuilt mobile car phones, GPS systems, TVs etc, which your typical vintage scooter is probably not and never will equipped with."
So that may in part explain the lack of RFI from modern vehicles and greater prevalence on older ones. The others, I suspect, being:- the use of Electronic ignition systems rather than points based systems and the fitting of suppressor caps and suppressor capacitors to ignition coils, alternators and any other electric motors (
). I suspect points may well make more interference across a broad spectrum of frequencies. I am sure everyone at some time has suffered crackles and buzzes on their radios when things like the contacts on the relays on their central heating boiler start to get old and warn.
I am not sure what remedial measures one might be able to take on a vintage bike. For the reasons stated in the Scooter document I dont suppose suppressor caps are feasible and neither would be the appropriate plugs. Let alone the aesthetics of fitting non standard caps. I am not sure what the situation would be with suppression capacitors. I will try and find out more from someone I know who knows more about this than I.

As expected, Johnny Jones has been fired
BATON ROUGE – As expected, LSU announced it has parted ways with head basketball coach Johnny Jones.
The university made the official announcement in a news release around lunchtime Friday. Sources had previously revealed Jones' expected firing earlier this week. Jones being let go was obvious, coming at the end of LSU's loss-filled basketball season.
LSU finished the season Wednesday night with a 10-21 record after its loss to Mississippi State in the first round of the SEC tournament in Nashville.
This was the first losing season for Jones, who coached LSU to one NCAA Tournament appearance in 2015. However, Jones' coaching has been under increasing scrutiny since last season, when LSU missed the NCAA Tournament despite the presence of eventual first-overall NBA draft choice Ben Simmons on the roster.
Alleva said that the decision was made with the consultation of LSU President Dr. F. King Alexander and members of the LSU Board of Supervisors.
"This decision was made with the firm belief that excellence in basketball at LSU is within reach," Alleva said.
Alleva said that a national search for Jones' replacement would begin immediately. However, officials say that a decision on a new coach would likely come after the NCAA is completed in early April.
"We are going after a proven winner and we're going to use all the expertise and experience we can to find the right person for this job," Alleva said.

The production and use of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was recently prohibited/restricted by the Stockholm Convention on persistent organic pollutants (POPs), but environmental data are few and of varying quality. We here present the first extensive dataset of the continent-wide (Eurasia and Canada) occurrence of PCP and its methylation product pentachloroanisole (PCA) in the environment, specifically in pine needles. The highest concentrations of PCP were found close to expected point sources, while PCA chiefly shows a northern and/or coastal distribution not correlating with PCP distribution. Although long-range transport and environmental methylation of PCP or formation from other precursors cannot be excluded, the distribution patterns suggest that such processes may not be the only source of PCA to remote regions and unknown sources should be sought. We suggest that natural sources, e.g., chlorination of organic matter in Boreal forest soils enhanced by chloride deposition from marine sources, should be investigated as a possible partial explanation of the observed distributions. The results show that neither PCA nor total PCP (ΣPCP = PCP + PCA) should be used to approximate the concentrations of PCP; PCP and PCA must be determined and quantified separately to understand their occurrence and fate in the environment. The background work shows that the accumulation of airborne POPs in plants is a complex process. The variations in life cycles and physiological adaptations have to be taken into account when using plants to evaluate the concentrations of POPs in remote areas.

Its not just for workers
The Holiday weekend is valuable not only to workers but students alike. Imagine, most of them cooped up in rabbit hutch urban accommodation, in order to save money, looking forward to the hope of getting out into the countryside and family come Friday.
Much as holidays are welcome fillip for harassed workers, many businesses find them a nuisance and blip in planning or running an efficient money making venture. Nevertheless, all recognize the value of holidays for both service and manufacturing industries as homo sapiens, unlike machines not only need a rest, but a recharge of the proverbial batteries, which have proven to boost productivity. Besides, even laborers who are paid a daily wage, if constantly nose to the grinding wheel 6 days a week, 8 hours a day, welcome a break. But what does this do to productivity?
Arguing productivity
Some will argue that high unemployment, just like many holidays, reduces the number of working hours, which makes for a smaller denominator in computing for labor productivity. While this is true, when comparing the USA - which has far less holidays and us - with the EU - which has far more holidays than us, it can be argue that the quality of holiday making, though dearer, is better in the EU or the places where the citizens of the EU go to during holiday season.
In local practice
Imagine if the holiday lands smack in any of the middle 3 days of a 5 day working week. There will be a dilemma for those who would still want to risk a day-trip. Congestion at bus terminals start building up just as the evening rush hour begins. Besides, its been proven that a Tuesday holiday after a Monday working day is detrimental to most people working up to a momentum for work the rest of the week.
Collection day
Also, since our urban economies are largely controlled by distribution and merchandising companies, all of which try to take advantage of the 3-day float that a weekend allows for funding checks, almost all dictate that Friday afternoon as suppliers' collection day. This leads thousands of motorcycle riding messengers to rush to get checks for late deposit at banks or to HQ. Hence the weekend traffic mess, compounded by the rush to get out of the city.
Rebels because...
Young web entrepreneurs, usually labelled as "rebellious" have decried offices as the worse places to get any work done. The endless interruptions of managers and meetings, they claim, is the problem. Work is like sleep; once interrupted getting back on track is difficult. Such interruptions, the independent savvy entrepreneurs say, are imposed by others and is out of synch for even the most ardent of nose-to-the grinding wheel laborer.
Command and control
But corporations are groups of people who need to be physically close to each other in order to shorten communication lines. You can't have a herd scattered all over the place. You need a corral for control and access.
The NBN-ZTE dream
Perhaps someday, we will live in a society where having an office and regular office time would be a thing of the past. We won't have to build so many office parks and residential suburbs, linked by ever more congested roads. The adage "build it, and they will come" surely applies to traffic. Offices will still be necessary as there has to be consistent point of contact for transacting people. Cloud computing, which may be the next step if we achieve blanket broad band coverage [NBN-ZTE, anyone?] would still reduce the need for people to be moving around to do work if they can do it in the comfort of their homes.
You're the boss
Perhaps, owing to the addiction to having a captive audience at meetings, many self-made entrepreneur's offices still function, at least, as a tangible prop to fragile egos. Then, in that case, the right frame of mind is to expect the interruptions imposed by others and never mind if not much work gets done. That's what Holidays are for, Mr. President. Let's not keep changing rules for change's sake. But you can't deny that in the comfort of lying in bed wearing pajamas, temptations to stray from the focus of getting work done is ever present. You're the boss and no one's watching. If others aren't wasting your time, you can easily find ways to waste yours.

Note: This replaces the deprecated $? identifier.
Prompts the user for input and returns the result.
- prompt - text displayed inside the input dialog window. The input dialog is extended vertically to display the prompt message if it is very long. You can also make text in the prompt message appear on different lines by using $crlf to separate lines.
- options - Options can be a combination of the following:
- e - show input editbox
- p - show input password editbox
- o - ok button
- y - yes no buttons
- n - yes no cancel buttons
- r - retry cancel buttons
- v - return $ok, $yes, $no, $cancel for buttons
- g - right-align buttons
- b - disables buttons for a second when dialog is displayed
- f - return $no/$cancel for edit/combo boxes if no/cancel is pressed
- iqwh - show the info, question, warning, and halt icons respectively.
- d - play system sound associated with icon.
- s - indicates that window name has been specified
- a - activate dialog
- u - use current active window as parent window
- kN - an N second timeout value. On timing out, $timeout is returned if v is specified, no value if e is specified, and $false otherwise.
- m - indicates that multiple text parameters have been specified. They will be displayed in a combobox. The first text item is the default item (a reference to an item in the list), the rest are the items in the list.
- window - if option s is specified, the name of the window to be used as parent window.
- title - the titlebar text.
- text - default text placed in the input editbox
The options, window, title, and text are optional parameters.
By default, buttons return $true or $null, same as $?. If there is an input editbox, the ok/yes buttons always return the contents of the editbox (unless f switch is used).
For the options parameter, you can also use a number as a combination of value added together, which is how $input was originally working:
- 1 - show input editbox (equivalent of the 'e' switch)
- 2 - show input password editbox (equivalent of 'p' switch)
- 4 - ok button (equivalent of 'o')
- 8 - yes/no buttons ('y')
- 16 - yesnocancel buttons ('n')
- 32 - return $ok, $yes, $no, $cancel for buttons. ('v')
- 64 - show the info icon ('i')
- 128 - show the question icon ('q')
- 256 - show the warning icon ('w')
- 512 - show the hand icon ('h')
$input(sup,5) is equivalent to $input(sup,eo)
Note: This identifier cannot be used in a remote event. One way around this is to use a /timer to initiate an input request after the script ends. Another way around it is to use /signal to trigger an on signal event.
alias testme { echo -a $input(Type something for me,e) }
Echoes whatever the user types into the input field to the active window.
alias testme { echo -a $input(Enter Password:,p) }
Does the same as the first example, except while the user is typing, the characters are replaced by password characters. The typed value, however, is visibly legible when it is echoed to the active window.
alias testme { echo -a $input(Do you like chocolate?,y) }
Pops up an input request asking if the user likes chocolate. If they click Yes, it echoes $true to the active window; otherwise, it echoes $false.

US Vice President Joe Biden's trying to recover from the embarrassment of arriving in Israel on a peace mission, to be greeted by an announcement of 1,600 new homes being built in disputed East Jerusalem. So is the US now ignored by Israel? A once strong force that has lost its influence? Or has Israel always done what it wants, regardless of outside pressure? This is how the visit is playing in Israeli and Palestinian newspapers.

On air: The end of the office?
I'm just back from the opening reception at WeMedia and I wanted to share on conversation I had while there. Ritchie Lucas runs a company called Think Factory. He believes that the way we build our working lives around offices is incredibly inefficient (and believes the net can connect the unemployed with those who could use their ability). As well as that, he told me that information is now more important to all of us than people and relationships with them. We don't need to see the person who's providing us with a service, and we don't need to see the people we work with he argued. We just need the information they can give us. It's a radical idea that would change how we work and how we get others to work for us. Now of course, he 's hoping this will happen as his business is built on this, but do you think Ritchie's logic holds?

If you're trying to shed a few pounds, eating fast food probably wouldn't be your first thought. However Weight Watchers has joined forces with McDonalds in New Zealand.

Wireless vs Wired… And What It Means In The Gym
The decision on whether or not to ditch the wires or stick with the old faithful is a long-standing debate when buying a new pair of headphones. You probably already know that both have their own strengths and it's likely that you've already read about this topic some place else.
In this article, we will walk you through the biggest pros and cons of each but we will be focusing on what it means when the headphones is bought specifically for gym use.
Freedom of Movement
The fundamental difference between a wired and a Bluetooth wireless headphones is pretty obvious — the latter comes without wires.
When talking about the gym or physical activities such as jogging or aerobics, it is difficult not to highlight the the clear advantage of wireless headphones. The chords associated with wired headphones can be problematic at the gym as they can get in the way with your movements. In this case, there is nothing quite as freeing as connecting your headphones to your phone, being able to walk tens of feet away while still hearing everything, and no wires weighing you down while you lift those heavy weights.
Aside from that, wireless headphones saves you tons of time as you no longer need to wrap up cords any time you put them inside a bag, or risk getting them tangled. All in all, wireless headphones provide a better option for athletes and active individuals as far as freedom of movement is concerned.
Sound Quality
Most people who go to the gym rely on music for a distraction-free training. However, it is also important to remember that people go to the gym to workout and not necessarily to listen to music. The music is just there to enhance the whole experience and to improve productivity. That being said, it is safe to say that sound quality is only second to freedom of movement when considering wireless versus wired headphones at the gym.
Although some diehard audiophiles will totally refute this, the difference in sound quality between wireless and wired headphones has lessened over time (thanks to the Golden Age of Innovation). Well, technically speaking, wired connection delivers a much more authentic sound compared to a wireless connection due to the fact that Bluetooth can only handle so much information across its signal.
However, in reality, any remaining gap has narrowed to the point where most people wouldn't know the difference, even to trained ears. We're talking very minor differences that only an extremely picky listener will notice.This is especially true when people are listening to digital music which most people at the gym do. Listening to music on vinyl... now, that's another story.
Although Bluetooth is a major factor in the sound quality of wireless headphones, the quality of the headphones themselves and the audio device being used affect sound quality as well. Thus, using a quality audio device may improve your chances of getting the best sound quality, regardless of whether you use wired or wireless headphones. Essentially, you can experience excellent sound quality in a wireless headphones, if only you use the best kind.
Compatibility: Wires will soon be useless for future devices
According to market research firm Grand View Research, wireless headphones are expected to be the next big thing in the global headphones industry. The research firm also reported that the increasing adoption of headphones during a workout is primarily expected to drive the headphones market growth over the coming years. Apple's removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack in the iPhone 7 as well as the release of the company's Airpods backs this up and further indicates that the trend is indeed toward wireless.
This only tells us that it may become harder and harder to find a phone that can support a 3.5mm wired connection going forward. And since mobile phones are the most commonly used device with headphones in the gym, choosing a wired over a wireless pair might not be the smartest move in the long run.
If you still choose to go with the wired can nonetheless, just make sure that you review the headphones closely to ensure that they are compatible with your device. For instance, the iPhone 7 requires a separate adapter to connect a 3.5mm cable to the smart phone, which, needless to say, requires an additional expense and additional space in your gym bag. I mean, who has time for that when all you ever want is a distraction-free workout?
On the flip side, most wireless headphones are compatible to any Bluetooth-enabled device. In addition, most wireless headphones these days come with a detachable cord, which gives you the option to plug them in if you wish. This means you get the best of both worlds.
In conclusion, the debate between Bluetooth vs. wired headphones mostly comes down to personal preference and intended application. But if you intend to use your headphones in the gym, the freedom to move around without cables and cords hanging out of your pockets is a vital consideration. Plus, if you love the idea of future-proofing, then Bluetooth wireless headphones are going to be the choice for you.
And if you ever need to use it with a wider variety of technology, like older devices, turntables, and video game consoles, or if you're running out of battery life, you can always use the detachable cord that comes with your wireless can.
However, if you intend to use your headphones for producing or for DJing, then the wired can will have to be your best bet.

place: Soziales Zentrum, Josephstraße 2 (directions)
Dear utilizers of the Kost-Nix shop,
some of you may already have noticed that we are planning an assembly next Sunday. Much has happened in the past months and we find it very helpful to create a space where we can all come together to decide on framework conditions that will positively change the situation of the store. Necessary structures, which should better regulate the interaction between the people in the shop, the organized utilizers can't determine alone, but they are strongly interested in giving all people who use the shop the possibility to make their voices heard.
In recent weeks, situations have often arisen that have been perceived as unfair by several people. To prevent such situations from occurring again, there is a strong need for binding rules that create order, which give both the organisers and the utilizers security in their actions. In the Assembly we would like to identify problems that promote the feeling of injustice and at the same time find solutions for it.
It is also important for us to reach people who are convinced of the idea of the Kost-Nix shop, but who stay away because they do not feel comfortable for certain reasons. We can only create an improvement if we talk together about how to deal with each other and decide what works and what doesn't work.
The plenary meeting should take place at 12 noon in the social centre. We start with a round of getting to know each other, then the problems are to be collected and clear solutions for a concrete problem are to be worked out in small groups. Then follows the vegan/vegetarian lunch and when everyone is well strengthened again, the solution proposals are to be presented to the whole group.
We will attach great importance to the fact that at the end of the afternoon we will make binding decisions on how to deal with each other in the future.
We are very much looking forward to the different perspectives and views, which will give the project a common vision only through the exchange.
Your Kost-Nix Shop Orga-Team
