The Jerusalem Magistrates' Court has rejected a request from police to keep a high school student in jail after he came under suspicion in an attack. Police argued that if the student were released, he could tamper with evidence.
The student is one of multiple Jewish teens arrested after a Jewish boy threw rocks at an Arab teacher two weeks ago in Jerusalem.
Attorney Itamar Ben-Gvir accused the Jerusalem Police of being motivated solely by a desire to appeal to the media. "There is no logic in arresting a suspect two weeks after the alleged offense and then requesting a remand because he might tamper with the investigation," he said.
The court agreed that the request was not justified, and noted that if the suspect had the desire and ability to interfere with the investigation, he could have done so in the two weeks that had passed between the attack and his arrest.
The court also accepted Ben-Gvir's argument that police are not accusing the youth of racist assault, which is a more serious charge than regular assault.
The detainee will remain in custody until Tuesday evening and then will be released to house arrest.
The attack in Jerusalem's Kiryat Moshe was condemned by religious-Zionist leaders. MK Uri Orbach of the Bayit Yehudi responded to the incident with a reminder that Rabbi Tzvi Yehuda Kook was strongly opposed to attacks on Arabs.

Two of our current students Rory and Sam have been involved with Mixed ability Rugby since it started up at Longlevens (Gloucester Griffins) over a year ago. This wonderful initiative was introduced to us by Imas.(International Mixed ability sport) Mixed Ability Rugby sees players with and without disabilities play rugby together. This enables previously excluded participants to become equal team members without being separated, classified or labelled. Wider social benefits as a result of the programme include increased social integration and diversity awareness, as well as changing perceptions within clubs and communities.
I have had the privilege of being a part of Rory and Sam's journey, going with them to training every week. I have seen their confidence soar, and watched them become valued members of the team, and a fantastic group of people.
This club, makes a real difference to the lives of the people who take part, whether they have a disability or not! It makes rugby accessible for all, builds confidence, and has such a team spirit! I cannot praise this club highly enough! They have played Two matches as Gloucester against Worcester Warriors, home and away, and hope to have more games soon. Our Mixed Ability team won Aviva UK's #GrassrootsGiveaway competition. we were looking forward to our usual training session with some of the Gloucester Rugby coaches to be filmed by Aviva… but we got a huge surprise when Ben Morgan, Charlie Sharples and Billy Twelvetrees turned up as well! A huge thanks to everyone involved, it was a night the team will remember for a long time!

The grades of beef plates and briskets correspond to those of the carcass from which they come, Together, the two cuts represent approximately 12 per cent of the weight of the side. Taken separately, the plate represents 8 per cent and the brisket 4 per cent, all based on the Chicago method of 'cutting. The plate is referred to as "navel" in the Chicago market. In high-grade carcasses the percentage of fat in these cuts is much greater than in any of the other wholesale cuts and their market value is largely determined by the amount of fat. In most markets the demand for fresh plates and briskets is equal to only a fraction of the fresh supply, and these cuts are marketed largely as corned or barreled beef. In Boston, the trade specializes in rolled, boneless cuts, and that market uses the larger percentage of its supply of fresh plates and briskets in this manner. Plates and briskets make excellent retail cuts for boiling and stewing, but are not suitable for roasts, unless boned and rolled. Short ribs of beef are the rib end of the plate cut 4 to 6 inches wide the entire length of the plate, or the width of seven ribs.
Plates from cows are broader and have proportionately less depth of flesh than plates from steer and heifer carcasses.
The brisket is considered more desirable than the plate, and is always in demand by hotel, restaurant,, and lunch-room trade, and is used principally as corned beef.
No. A 1, or Prime, Beef Plates and Briskets
No. A 1, or Prime, beef plates and briskets are from Prime beef carcasses, and the market supply is almost negligible. They are thick and well-fleshed, and have an abundance of creamy-white fat interspersed between the layers of lean meat. The exterior surfaces are well and evenly covered with fat of excellent quality. The flesh is light to medium red, and has moderately fine grain as compared with other wholesale cuts of this grade.
No. 1, or Choice, Beef Plates and Briskets
Plates and briskets of this grade differ only slightly in thickness, quality, and finish from those of No. A-1, or Prime, grade. They may have more or less fat, but as a rule it is not so evenly distributed. The flesh has a light to medium-red color, and is comparatively fine-grained and firm. Plates and briskets of this grade are generally marketed fresh, and are rarely corned or sold as barreled beef.
No. 2, or Good, Beef Plates and Briskets
Plates and briskets of this grade have more than the average depth of flesh, and have generous quantities of fat interspersed between the layers of lean flesh and deposited along the ribs. The color of the flesh is medium to slightly dark red, and is inclined to coarseness. The outer surface of the plate is fairly evenly covered with a thin coating of creamy-white fat, which diminishes toward the brisket. Inside, semiloose fats are in evidence, and these are white and brittle. Plates and briskets of this grade are sold fresh, principally.
No. 3, or Medium, Beef Plates and Briskets
No. 3, or Medium, beef plates and briskets are available throughout the year. They have average depth of flesh, and make desirable retail cuts for stewing and boiling. There is practically no outside covering of fat, except a thin layer on the upper end of the plate next to the flank. There is no out-side fat on the brisket, and only limited amounts attached to the inside or breast bone. The percentage of bone is relatively high. The flesh is usually dark, stringy, and very tough. It also has a moist or watery appearance, and shrinks heavily when cooked. A large percentage of this grade is corned and sold as barreled beef.
No. 4, or Common, Beef Plates and Briskets
Plates and briskets of this grade represent the lowest grade that is taken by the fresh beef trade in any appreciable quantity. They are thin and relatively broad. All rib bones are prominent, and usually hard and flinty. There is a total lack of both outside and inside fat. The flesh is uniformly coarse, dark, and tough. The proportion of bone is unusually high. A small percentage of plates and briskets of this grade is boned and rolled, and sold fresh, but the bulk is corned and sold as barreled beef.
No. 5, or Cutter, and No. 6, or Low Cutter, Beef Plates and Briskets
Plates and briskets of these grades are seldom sold as fresh beef. The total lack of fat and the low percentage of flesh generally make them uneconomical as fresh beef. The flesh is very unattractive. It is exceptionally dark, very coarse, and generally tough. Practically all plates and briskets of these grades are boned for sausage at the packing plants, and a relatively small percentage is corned and sold as low-grade barreled beef.
Beef Flanks
The flank is a boneless cut taken from the hindquarter just below the loin and in front of the round. Under the Chicago method of cutting, it represents about 3 per cent of the weight of the side. Flanks are rarely sold separately, and for that reason separate descriptions of the various grades have been deemed unnecessary. Many are sold with the loin or round, according to trade customs at the different markets. When so sold, they fall into the same class and, grade as the main cut to which they are attached. Naturally there are variations in the quantity and quality of both the flesh and fat, according to the grade.
Flanks from No. 1, or Choice, and No. 2, or Good, carcasses are thick and well covered with fat of excellent quality. Except for the flank steak, which represents about 17 per cent of the flank, and a small quantity of lean trimmings, the cut is composed almost entirely of fat, which decreases in quantity with each grade downward. The flank steak, which is almost entirely lean meat, has a light or medium red color, but is rather coarse-grained and often tough. When properly prepared, it makes a desirable steak or roast.
Flanks from low-grade carcasses have only a scant covering of fat, this usually showing a yellowish tinge. The steaks are thin, dark, coarse-grained, and tough.
Beef Shanks
Except when otherwise specified, the term "shank" refers to the cut from the forequarter. Hindshanks usually are sold as a part of the round and seldom, if ever, are offered separately. Foreshanks represent 4 per cent of the carcass when cut according to the Chicago method. Shanks from Good, Choice, and Prime carcasses have a thin covering of white fat next to the shoulder, which diminishes sharply toward the knee. All lower grades have no fat covering. The flesh is usually coarse, and the color varies according to the grade of the cacass. In the same carcass, however, it is darker than in the better cuts, such as rib and loin. The flesh from shanks is used principally for stews and hamburger steak; also to some extent as soup stock. The bone is used extensively for soup stock.
Beef Kidney Knobs
The kidney knob is attached to the inner surface of the loin, covering the tenderloin or "fillet," and includes the kidney and the suet or fat surrounding it. It is generally sold with the hindquarter or untrimmed loin. Kidney knobs are not sold as such to the retail trade, the kidneys being removed and sold separately. No grades are recognized. The size varies generally according to the grade of the carcass from which they are taken. Heavy, fat carcasses produce large kidney knobs, and light or thin carcasses small ones. Fat cows as a rule have larger kidney knobs than other classes.
Beef Suet
Suet is the semiloose fat obtained from beef carcasses. It is composed chiefly of kidney, crotch, and breast fats, and represents about 3 per cent of the carcass weight. The greatest amount comes from the hindquarters. The percentage varies according to the grade of the carcass, being greater, as a rule, in the better grades, gradually diminishing with each succeeding lower grade. Common, canner, and cutter carcasses have practically no suet. Suet is sold in only limited quantities to the retail trade, as it is used principally by renderers in the manufacture of oleo oil. Small quantities are used in preparing mince meat.

What Are Brown Diamonds
Brown diamonds belongs to the group of the more affordable fancy color diamonds because there are lots of its kind that is available on the market. It is also referred to as chocolate, cognac, and champagne diamond. Of all the names that were mentioned, it has been commonly called as Chocolate Diamonds and is a marketing phrase that is commonly coined by the famous jewelry manufacturer Le Vian. Because of its association with chocolate and the fancy color, a lot of customers are attracted by it.
In the 1980s, Australian miners are shipping millions of their tiny brown stones to India, and then workers cut them into melee-sized gems. These brown stones will eventually find their way into the market filled with popular-priced jewelry. They certainly made jewelry purchasing more affordable than it used to.
Just like the other colored diamonds, it also comes with natural and color-treated varieties. And as always, the natural ones will always be more expensive than the color-treated kind.
Are Brown Diamonds Real?
In the world of diamonds, it always comes with a variety of colors apart from the common, colorless kind. Brown is one of those colors and is also graded based on its intensity. As the color of the natural diamond becomes more vivid and purer, it becomes a more valuable piece.
What Is The Price Range For Brown Diamonds?
If you are asking yourself if brown diamonds are expensive, well, they are, but the prices may vary depending on the variety. Even though that diamonds are known to be one of the most affordable, their prices can still reach up high in staggering numbers. Their prices may depend on the intensity and hue of the color as well as on its color, size, cut, and clarity level. A large, low-quality diamond can be cheaper compared to a small flawless one. This means that each diamond should be looked at and considered based on the individual specifications that were mentioned on the product.
Are Brown Diamonds Rare?
There's no doubt that colored diamonds are a rare kind. The reason for this is that colored diamonds can only be found in a small quantity compared to all of the other diamonds in the world. However, brown diamonds belong to the bigger part of the colored diamonds that were found thus making it a common one and probably a less expensive variety. Having said that, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can buy brown diamonds in a single purchase unless you're a multi-millionaire of course. But you can definitely afford a brown diamond especially if you're on a tight budget and would want to buy a diamond that is colored. Just keep in mind that as the intensity of a colored diamond lowers, it becomes more affordable than a high-quality colorless stone.
What Makes A Diamond Brown?
Diamonds consists of compound elements as well as impurities wherein it can have some effects on the stone's appearance. In yellow diamonds, there is impurity of the element nitrogen within it which causes the change in color. The same thing goes for brown diamonds wherein nitrogen is also the element that is responsible for the color change. Apart from that, the unique color of the light that was absorbed through the natural defects in its crystal lattice is also responsible for the brownish appearance.
Where Are Brown Diamonds Commonly Mined?
Brown diamonds aren't hard to find which is why they can be mined from all around the world wherein it includes the popular Argyle mine in Australia and South Africa. The Argyle mine is probably the place where a large quantity of brown diamonds are found, and despite its dull color, they always come up with an ingenious marketing tactic that makes these stones a must have. The mine also dubs the brown diamonds as a "champagne diamond," which automatically gives it that desirable and classy image. This tactic worked like a charm since it is now seen as a romantic color stone that is somewhat similar to the colors of our well-known foods and drinks.
Do Brown Diamonds Look Good In Jewelry Pieces?
There is no doubt that brown diamonds should be set in a jewelry. It would be depressing not to see brown diamonds in an elegant setting because of how beautiful it truly is. Owning and wearing a jewelry is a nice way of keeping an eye on your beloved stone and is also a great way to be proud of your beloved investment. Having a platinum or gold setting will add value to the piece and will make the brown diamond look even more impressive. The champagne diamond also contrasts well with some colorless diamonds. This makes the 3 stone ring or a pave set champagne diamond ring a great way to provide some attention to your piece.
Brown Diamond Treatments
There are times that brown diamonds are treated, but this process is usually done to convert the diamond into other colors. For this instance, natural brown diamonds have the lattice imperfections to thank for its color. However, high-pressure, high-temperature treatments are also used to turn a lot of brown diamonds into attractive colors such as yellow or in some cases, just a colorless one. Even though that the changes in color make those diamonds more valuable than brown, it also makes them less valuable than natural, untreated diamonds that are also of the same quality and color.
Even though that brown diamonds may not be that bright like canary diamonds or as feminine as the pink stones, they still have a lot to offer and can also come in an attractive price range. Whether it may be a delicate light brown diamond or a deep chocolate colored diamond, these brown stones can be perfect for any type of personality and even skin tones. They are a head turner as a pendant necklace, studs, and above all, a stunning diamond engagement ring. So it is important that you research well before you make a purchase, and eventually enjoy it once you've finally decided to add it to your precious collection.

The action centres on a farmer called Eli Bacon, who accidentally discovers the delicious hangover cure after preparing his prize pig for a wrestling competition, covering it in butter and herbs (to make it more slippery in the ring) and housing it in a barn. A barn that then ceremoniously burns to the ground – cooking the pig with it. The smell entices the townsfolk, and after trying bacon for the first time the local community is intoxicated by the smell and taste.
Eli, of course, fears for the livelihood of his livestock – so has enlisted your help to try and convince the zombie-like townspeople that there is a value in keeping pigs alive. Cue a number of light-hearted and borderline-ridiculous missions that involve crafting worker outfits for hogs and even bringing armour-clad pigs with you to battle.
Bacon Quest is essentially an in-joke – apparent to anyone who has played Runescape for a long period of time. It plays on the idea that low-ranking warriors can level up by attacking cows and chickens, but not certain other creatures (like sheep, which is justified because you can shear these for wool). Early in the game's twelve-year service, a group of artists added pigs to the world which, for no apparent reason, could not be attacked.
Back then, a promising QA employee at Jagex had suggested the idea of including bacon in the game. That employee's name was Mark Ogilvie, who is now one of the Cambridge studio's top design developers. "Yeah, Bacon Quest is the result of something that I have wanted to do for at least ten years," he admits to me during a tour of the Runescape developer's office.
"What I thought was really weird was that there was this great fantasy game, yet the developers had put anchovy pizza in it [before something as obvious as bacon]. Of course, it was coded in because the team just happened to be eating anchovy pizza at the time. But I said I wanted bacon sandwiches. I was told that we couldn't put bacon in the game because the cooking skill was full, and that there was no need for it really."
Although it's clear that long-time employees of Jagex have stuck around because of the friendly and inviting work environment that its office provides – outlined in more detail in SPOnG's Runescape 3 gold interview – it's hard not to suspect that with Mark, there was an ulterior motive to his decade-long dedication to the company. He jovially reveals that, as he climbed the ranks, he "started to get more authority and more impositions" so that his bacon dream could become a reality.
"But then [once I had assumed a position where I could make this a reality] I realised, that all the developers before me who had said 'no' – they were right," Mark explains. "I couldn't afford to invest development time just putting bacon into the game. We don't need it from a design perspective. But… this nagged at me."
It wasn't until the prospect of developing Runescape 3 – with the move from Java to HTML5, the wrapping up of apocalyptic storylines and all – that Mark decided that now was the right time to realise his fantasy. "More recently, we've been doing some bold things with our storylines. Big, dramatic stuff. We've killed off gods, and made some big changes to some of our oldest storylines. We concluded a lot of long-running things.

The Tricky Art of Finishing What You StartBy
Several comments in last week's blog post Ernest Hemingway's Productivity Techniques alluded to the problem of finishing projects.
This was in response to my suggestion of working on a few projects at once as you always have something else to respond to if you get stuck with the first thing you're working on.
Horseshoes and Hand Grenades
In my blog post Horseshoes and Hand Grenades, I talk about the fine art of finishing, and the typical problems that happen midway through almost any art or craft project, the most common of which is that it looks, uh, kind of terrible.
Or at least not the way you imagined when you started.
This is, however, TOTALLY NORMAL and the way of all long term relationships.
After the initial honeymoon is over and you've worked on your project for a while, you turn around to find it snoring on the couch with its mouth half open and a bag of chips slowly sliding off its belly.
Not quite what you imagined when you initially fell in love with your idea.
But hey, in sickness and in health right? For better and for worse.
You've got to stick with your idea even when it's got bad breath and hasn't showered in three days. This takes commitment and a certain leap of faith.
If you have a tendency to move on to the next romantic, good-looking idea in your brain when the going gets tough, just know that it, too, will soon will be snoring on the couch, slack-jawed and gassy.
But of course, you also have the opportunity to turn your frog back into the prince (or princess) of your dreams–and/or to open up to its own particular gorgeousness just the way it is. Even if it wasn't what you first thought you wanted.
But the way you get there is by finishing.
You can read about it here.
Resistance in Disguise
But if you think you don't finish things because you get bored or restless and just like to move on, I'd like you to consider that this really might be Resistance in Disguise.
Resistance is how we protect ourselves from taking risks.
So if you never finish anything, you don't have to risk determining that it's "bad" or that you're "not talented" because it's not done. Who knows how it might turn out. By not finishing, you protect yourself from your own mean rule.
But we have to trick ourselves to do that.
We conjure up clever reasons for stopping and we convince ourselves that they're true.
We do it to protect ourselves from the mean pronouncements of our inner critic, or from feeling the "ick" of struggling or working past our comfort zone.
But the real, more helpful work might be to examine the rules you're protecting yourself from. Is it true that if you make something "bad", it means you're not a real artist? Or aren't talented?
I hope not, because I've made more bad art that I can shake a stick at. Which helped me make a lot of other work I love.
If you wouldn't hold me to such an unforgiving, harsh standard, why are you so willing to do that to yourself?
Let me know what you think in the comments.
Finishing has always been hard for me. I like to work on a project until I 'hit a wall' and then stop. This year I decided that I would go back and finish up the projects that could be finished. The other projects I sent to a lady who finishes quilts and gives them to charities in her area.
I had a quilt that I started in 2008. I had put it away cause the pattern wasn't working out. This month, I decided to scrap most of the quilt and start over. I had my strips all cut and so I began to sew them together. I kept pushing myself and put the blocks up on a design wall when they were completed. Looking at it gave me the confidence to keep going. I emptied a medium sized basket of strips and I'm happy at the way the quilt is turning out. I have 2 more big blocks to finish and I'm excited.
I'm so excited that I'm planning a new quilt, but I'm also finishing some of my old ones. Each month is a new list and I feel like I've accomplished something. I'm glad my momentum has remained strong.
I thoroughly enjoyed your mail as it was just how i feel about most of my projects that I start.The initial momentum is lost half way through the project and I need a kick to get back to the same.I am glad to know that I am not the only one who has this problem.
That does give me a boost to get back to a few of my projects that have been left half way .thanks!!
Not finishing a project is one of my biggest problems. I get so excited about creating a certain item then about half way thru I have no desire to work on it. I always chalk it up to ADD but your resistance in disquise really hit home! I often feel I do not measure up to other artists (dare I call myself an artists) and you may very well be right….if I say on a post that I am working on a quilt…I will actually have to post a picture of it….yikes! Thanks again for a great post!
I would never have trouble finishing anything, if it werent for the fact that I, at some point in the project, start disliking what Ive done so far. I find it really hard to reignite my interest and find a solution, or go in another direction with the project.
This has given me the kick in the pants I needed, coupled with the fact that Mr. Husband will be on work travel for 2 weeks beginning this weekend, to finish the UFOs I have. I am going to complete one project completely before taking up another one, beginning with the one closest to being finished. If I get a few nearly done ones out of the way, I will be inspired by the fact that I actually got something done!
Finishing what you start…. This used to be a big bug bear for me, then I moved into an ittsy bittsy condo. There is nowhere to leave unfinished items. I DO however have a one kind of project that I will allow myself time to complete–embroidery, I find that I need the right mindset to work on these pieces. I generally do 1 spirit doll a year and people who want one are told that from the beginning. I will not accept a commission for these pieces, I will only do trades or sales at shows.
Otherwise, once something is started, I finish it before I go onto the next thing. Tough to do, often once the initial rush of doing something new is over, I would like to set it aside and do something else, but with no room, I could not and now (after 2 years) I find it is no longer an issue. So I guess it was a bad habit – like smoking…..
Finishing used to be almost impossible for me; I seem to have/had *butterfly brain*—-just when you think it's landed, FLIT! Off we go.
One of the GOOD things that has come with getting older is a sense of being content with what I have, which in some odd way has lead to finished projects.
Yes, I work slow. Yes, I may have to put something aside for a while, and let it mentally stew while I do small projects. But there comes an *AH-HA!* moment in that stewing that answers problems and let's me finish. (this process will be different for everyone, but I believe it IS possible for anyone)
The other thing is I am not comparing my work to others, and I also do not read a lot of books, magazines, tutorials, etc. that I feel pull me off my path. One of the wonders of the instant connection we have with blogs and the internet in general is there is information overload. For someone taking tentative steps into the art arena, it is enough to send them back behind a rock or trying to do TOO MANY THINGS AT ONCE.
Slow down.
Find what you love.
Do it and if possible, find someone who will support you positively in your work.
Always consider that you are making the art for YOU. If you try making it to please or meet the standards of others, it won't go as well.
Remember to honor yourself and the fact that you took the risk to make art.
You are totally worthy of finishing that artwork!
P.S. There are always *bowsers* along the way, that during the stewing process just plain ROT.
That's something you'll learn, when it truly is beyond hope in it's present form.
But I save those for collage bases, and sometimes end up with AMAZING pieces! Don't despair!
i make altered books most of the time, sometimes it is hard to tell when it is DONE, but then again it will tell me and then it leaves the studio and goes on the altered book case……i have at least 10 different books going on right now….all with different themes….i have alot of ufo's around, will i ever finsh, probably not….maybe i was trying out something new and it wasn't doing it for me….or i just got plain bored with it…and sometimes getting started on new projects is even harder , by the time i get to do it i already made it in my head.
Excellent post, and I'm going to link to it on my blog. I am a serial starter and not such a great finisher. I finally buckled down and challenged myself to get projects done. I now have a blog party every Friday called "Finished for Friday" and I invite you and your readers to join in. Sometimes getting that pat on the back helps us move forward to finish the next thing. Even if you don't have a project to share, browsing through the posts of what others have finished can be very inspirational.
I love your analogy!~ I'm so very much NOT a procrastinator, but this sticks with so many people who are. Your duty to get it done will just fester! I do though, have some projects that I just couldn't figure out what to do with them part way through. It's great to force yourself to go back to one, and just go at it, even if you don't have a plan for it. I've found that that unfinished piece from long ago was just waiting for Today, to become the masterpiece it ended up proving to be. And my pile of nothingness but mess got smaller and proved to be a treasure hunt into my own things to create something I now covet.
This is the exact reason why I DO have many projects going on at the same time…so that when I do get to that "uugggggghhhh" feeling in the relationship, I shove it aside, and pick up something else (why can't we do this with our human relationships??? LOL) Ultimately, I find when I return to the discarded project, even if it is discarded several times, it almost always turns out better than I had pictured, and I am usually pleased.
One more quik thought…..thanks for the affirmation. When a really screw up a project, even if it is as simple as a greeting card, I tend to feel as tho I am not a good artist at all, and why am I bothering…
It really helps to know that other artists really make bad art occasionally, too.
Sometimes I leave a painting unfinished because it starts too good and I'm afraid of messing it up.
Other times it just isn't working and I haven't figured out how to fix it.
I always have a series of work in process. Since I work with watercolor & very wet I can only do so much before I have to let a piece dry, so I go on to the next one. This also helps unify a series since the color palette overlaps.
What a great post!
It really is food for thought. Luckily, I do finish things – not everything but at least half haha.
I have so many UFO's and this has inspired me to complete the incomplete
Man, do I know what you mean! I've got UFO's all over the place, including a wedding album/altered book I started 2 years ago. I am not sure if I'm afraid to finish because I'm afraid of the end result, or if I'm just a major procrastinator! Or sometimes I just burn out on a piece. Or sometimes there's just no "good" reason.
Thanks for addressing this one!
Oh My Goodness!!! This is me!!! I so appreciate seeing that there are others who do what I do. It gives me strength too to pick up that UFO and get it done. Thanks for the encouragement and happy finishing to you all!
Прекрасна дискусия! Моето мнение е, че има неща , които ще си остават за "отлежаване", докато един ден, с напълно различен поглед и отношение, просто за минути ще довърша… Но сега е излишно да губя ценно време- ако съм лишена от идея за "заключителен акорд"… Успех на всички!
Over and over and over, this is me. Many UFOs. Nearly always reach a point where I intensely dislike and am ashamed of the piece I'm working on. This became especially clear to me last year when I began making Zentangle® black and white drawings. My drawing experience is very limited, but I was drawn to the doodle-ish style and decided to try. Because the drawings are small and intended to be finished in a sitting, I was finishing this art at a much more rapid pace than my usual, eons-long quilt and bead projects. However, I experienced the same dislike of my work in progress, and usually wanted to stop midstream. Each time, I continued to draw in spite of my resistance, and each time, I loved the finished result.
ADD meds have really helped me with finishing what I start. Procrastination is a big part of my problem, but it's also a big part of the ADD.
True, being afraid that the finished product might not be perfect has kept me editing "The Chakra Diaries" longer than I thought it could ever take! Always a class to teach or an article to work on or a yoga pose to strike instead. But this morning I set a deadline! And picked a publisher! And I hope you all read the finished product by the end of the summer. If you want to read the short intro and give feedback (and receive a free ebook when it's done – soon), please go to thechakras.org. Namaste!
I read all the comments and wish I had gotten just to those stages. I see something I want to do and buy the paint or beads or??? and never get it off the ground. I just plain have more sit down and stop, than get up and go! Every week I read your post and can feel it affecting me in small bits. Maybe one week the stop will go.
Finishing projects is always a challenge. We see it often from our longarm quilt clients who had a project underway and stopped. Suddenly, they need it for a gift. We get it at the last minute and have to rush to get it finished. That said, its always fun to see the creativity of people and how they approach their projects. We just received a quilt from a lady who had it in the back closet for three years because she was not happy with her work and now the quilt fabric was out of date. She decided to finish it anyway and it was really beautiful. The message is dont get discouraged and give in.
[...] And I write sometimes about the funky middle, and how resistance protects us from finishing something that might be bad. [...]
I laughed when I first saw this topic, because I think I have more unfinished "great art ideas" and projects than finished ones. Never thought of myself as a non-completer, and always pushed to finish any other sort of task. But it's interesting how I've had a block to finishing my own personal art projects that were for no other purpose than my own fulfillment.
During the course and resolution of a life-threatening health issue 4 years ago, I entered a period of intense dreams and introspection, that led to a working list of a dozen or so art pieces that I knew I had to create. Not just to process what was then happening to me, but also to process areas of my life that I had never addressed with my art. Suddenly, it didn't matter to me at all what anyone would think or say of what I was painting or drawing or writing. The issue of it being "good" by anyone else's standards seemed foreign and superfluous, and the idea of expressing myself for my own purposes felt like it was enough. Sad to think that a scary event had to be the catalyst for that, but actually I am grateful for the journey it inspired for me, and I intend to continue that process. I'm even planning to hold a gallery showing of all my crazy pieces that present no explanation or theme other than, "yeah, here's what that felt like at the time." Where and when will this be? No idea. What will people say about the work? Finally, I don't care. I'm just going to dress up in something weird and fun, and sit there watching everyone look at all of it. And just in case, I'll have an open bar!

The resounding victory, riding on the exhilarating batting exploits of their top-order and, in particular openers Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma, was the country's first-ever over the Kiwis in the shortest form of the game.
The 2007 World T20 champions have produced impressive death bowling with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah leading the pace department, while the spinners also pitched in with some excellent bowling in the middle overs.
Considering the immense all-round strength that the hosts boast of, it's going to be a Herculean task for the Kane Williamson-led New Zealand to prevent India from surging to a third T20I series victory in eight contests, going back to 2012-13, three of which were drawn encounters.
India: Virat Kohli (C), Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shikhar Dhawan, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Shreyas Iyer, Dinesh Karthik, Kuldeep Yadav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Siraj, Manish Pandey, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, KL Rahul.

$1.5 Billion - Shortfall Forces Cuts and Delays
Last updated 5/19/2016 at 9:53am
Today the California Transportation Commission (CTC) adopted a five-year state transportation funding plan that cuts $754 million and delays another $755 million in highway, rail, transit, bicycle and pedestrian project spending. These cuts are due in large part to the steady loss of gas tax revenue over the past two years because of the drop in gasoline prices. It is the largest funding reduction since the current state transportation funding structure was adopted 20 years ago.
The cuts and delays are reflected in the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), adopted biannually by the CTC. The STIP is a key planning document for funding future state highway, intercity rail, transit and pedestrian improvements throughout California. Its primary funding source established by the Legislature is the price-based excise tax paid by drivers at the gas pump.
"It's highly unfortunate that we had to take this action," said CTC Chair Bob Alvarado. "This means that desperately needed transportation projects throughout California won't happen at all or will be significantly delayed. In addition to the many missed near-term opportunities to reduce congestion, improve air quality and grow jobs in virtually all areas of the state, projects that are stalled risk the loss of leveraging additional funds from state, federal and local sources and will likely cost significantly more to construct later. All Californians are paying a big price for the woefully inadequate investment in our transportation infrastructure. In light of the urgency and scale of the problem, we need the Legislature and Governor to agree on a solution quickly."
The CTC is required by law to estimate the amount of funds projected to be available over the five-year STIP period. The excise tax in 2010 was set at 17.3 cents per gallon and is adjusted annually by the State Board of Equalization based on fuel prices. On July 1, 2016, the tax will be reduced to 9.8 cents from the current 12 cents. Based on that reduction, the CTC anticipates a $1.5 billion funding shortfall for project commitments previously made for fiscal years 2016-17 through 2018-19, leading to the project funding cuts and delays included in the 2016 STIP adopted today.
"Because transportation projects typically are funded from multiple sources, the total statewide economic impact of the funding cuts and delays likely will run into the billions," said Alvarado.
It is estimated that every $1 billion in highway and transit investment supports 13,000 jobs. Each penny reduction in the gas tax decreases revenue to fund state and local roads by about $140 million per year.
The Legislature is currently considering proposals to reform the transportation program and increase transportation revenue, and Governor Brown has also advanced a proposed revenue and reform plan.

Practice is all about angles. Yoga practice, writing practice, piano practice: it doesn't matter in this way. The internal angles, the angles you can only feel and guide by breathing and longing, those are the angles you are refining, mobilizing, stabilizing and freeing.
Too often we think our yoga practice is about angles of arms, legs, torsos, and the usual adjustments really encourage this. Not the adjustments' – or the adjusters'! – fault though. It is important that the lower side body not collapse in Triangle, just to the lower hand to the ground. It is vital that the knee not knock inward in Warrior I and II. These are important angles, and ones some forget to check if there's no one to lightly touch the lower rib cage or ask them to press their outer knee into their hand.
But we give too much credence to these angles and adjustments when we keep going to those classes and listening to voices outside our own. Those angles are the way in, the signposts for another kind of sensing, one we can only do when our practice is ours alone.
And the paradoxical, terrifyingly beautiful magic of it all is that when we close the door, settle into that first Mountain or Vajrasana, however we're meeting ourselves on the mat today, and claim our practice for our own, we are so deeply held and anything but all alone. Try it. I'll meet you there.

Aussie Millions Kicks Off on January 17th
The focus of the poker world shifts down South once again, as the Aussie Millions is returning to the Crown Casino in Melbourne on January 17th.
Phil Ivey, real name Phillip Dennis Ivey Jr. is widely regarded as one of the best poker players to ever grace this earth. His massive personality and phenomenal poker skills have taken him to the top of the poker world throughout the past 20 years. To try your hand at becoming one of the best, we suggest Carbon Poker for USA players. He was born in Riverside, California on Feburary 1st 1976, and started playing poker around his twenties were he got his first nickname "No Home Jerome" come from the ID he used to play at the local casino and later on he got the nickname "Tiger Woods of Poker".
It was from here Ivey started to hone his skills and slowly start to become noticed as a very scary opponent.
"The Corporation" vs Andrew Beal
Perhaps one of the most notable stories surrounding Ivey's poker career is that of his Heads Up battle with billionaire banker Andrew Beal back in 2006. According to several reports around that time, Ivey and Beal played three days of poker against each other, with Ivey coming out on top with a cool $16.6m profit. This whole saga stemmed from an ongoing battle between Beal and several top players for many years before that, in which the players then decided to club together, coin themselves 'The Corporation' and take on Beal. It was also reported that the $16.6m win meant that 'The Corporation' had won back $10m they had lost to Beal previously and added the $6.6m to their bankroll as a whole.
World Series of Poker and World Poker Tour
Phil Ivey have had a glorious poker carrier having won ten World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets as well as one World Poker Tour (WPT) Final and also appearing nine times at the final table.
Ivey was named Poker Players of the Year by "All In Magazine" in 2005 and 2009
As TheHendonMob reports Phil Ivey has accumulated more than 23 million dollars from tournaments alone, and over $10m in online winnings. A big percentage of this money came from other regular high stakes players such as Patrik Antonius, Viktor Blom, and Tom Dwan.

You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; nor shall you testify in a dispute so as to turn aside after many to pervert justice. Exodus 23:2 (NKJV)
Another time Kristen Kansiewicz suggests you should consider seeing a professional Christian counselor is when conflict becomes repetitive or escalated. As she explains, the sad thing is that "too many couples or families wait until things have fallen apart before seeking counseling. Some only go to counseling as a last-ditch effort or to prove that they 'tried' to make things work."
You should not wait until you are at the end of your rope; seek counseling when you notice conflict that is repetitive, cyclical or it is escalating. When it seems like you continue to argue and fight about the same thing every day for days, weeks, or months on end, it's time to see a professional who can help you uncover the root of the conflict, teach you new communication strategies, and guide the process of rebuilding trust.
Continual family conflict can develop into such things as depression or anxiety, so it is important to get help before the conflict takes over your emotional life.
Anytime You Just Need to Talk. Kansiewicz says that "there is no 'right time' to go to a professional counselor, and if you are thinking about seeking help it may be a sign that now is a good time to do it." We all have those times when we get "stuck" and just need someone to help us see ourselves from a different perspective. Sometimes friends can help, but sometimes your problems can go beyond what friends can give. Look for Christian counselors in your area (for instance, the NAD family ministries website has a list around the North American Division. www.NADfamily.org). You can also ask your pastor or friends if they know a good therapist.
You don't have to try to be brave and try to figure things out on your own. We would be better off by humbly step into the counselor's office so we can begin to experience healing and freedom once again.
Father God, there are some things I just can't deal with all by myself. Help me and guide me to a good counselor who may show me the way toward health and healing.

Encryption for confidential emails right from the start – even on Smartphone
Berlin, 01. June 2015
A popular misconception is that secure email exchange is very complicated and not suitable for spontaneous communication with 3rd parties. As a result of the NSA scandal, this mindset has become more and more established. As a counter to NSA snooping, OpenPGP has been in the limelight and tutorials using OpenPGP dominate internet forums and the popular press. Using OpenPGP however requires that both communication partners have agreed upon an encryption method, that all the necessary software is installed and that keys have been created, signed and exchanged. Although OpenPGP has been freely available for years, it has not become universally popular due to its complexity and limited scalability. For efficient use within corporations there is a proven alternative that doesn't even require encryption keys.
Zertificon's Z1 SecureMail Gateway couples password-based with certificate-based encryption to deliver streamlined, secure & spontaneous email communication with anyone. If no encryption certificate or public PGP key can be found emails are delivered as encrypted PDF files or as secure HTML email attachments. Alternatively, secure emails are delivered via Z1 WebSafe – an HTTPS secured web mailer which automatically creates accounts for recipients. Account notifications and passwords are delivered to the recipient via a separate channel such as SMS. Recipients can not only receive emails via the web mailer, but can also reply directly.
This password based delivery functions without extra software or apps on mobile devices. The recipient only requires a standard web browser and PDF reader which are commonly available on most computers and phones.
In the mid-2000's, Zertificon's innovative solution for password based encryption was a watershed for the industry. Today the solution can be found in other products on the market under the name of "Push/Pull" technology.
The latest development from Zertificon is the combination of password based encryption with end-to-end encryption. The flexible outbound encryption is combined with certificate based encryption within the company network. This so called "Organizational End2End" solution provides companies and organizations with compliance conform day-to-day email security. In addition, the solution includes a pure certificate based end-to-end encryption from within the company network directly to the external recipient.
To better understand the complex issue of end-to-end encryption have a look at our latest white paper "End-to-End Email Encryption for Everybody? Why private individuals and corporations need different solutions" which can be downloaded for free from: www.zertificon.com/en/whitepaper.

Earlier this year, WNO///3 undertook research into music copyright and intellectual property issues with funding awarded by Arts Council of England's Digital Content Development programme. A lot of questions were asked and a lot of answers weren't necessarily found, largely because the territory is complex when it comes to classical music, and the approaches to dealing with the issues to date often contradictory and frequently restrictive for those artists wishing to evolve new ways of combining digital art with live performance without either risking their shirts, or a law suit.
The idea behind Project Electroclassic is breathtakingly simple, but cuts to the heart of the matter; it's to go back to basics and asks what might be possible – by asking musicians and artists engaged in the field to try out something new in a risk-free environment. Project Electroclassic will bring together digital sonic artists, composers with a classical music training and WNO musicians to test drive and maybe even breach the boundaries. The selected artists will join musicians from WNO's Orchestra in scheduled sessions in March through to April. They will be asked to develop creative pieces from audio samples, possibly a live performance, or a piece of sonic art, or a digital media installation; all the work will be broadcast on WNO///3. WNO///3 will also host a performance featuring visual artists and musicians as part of a series of events, including Electrostatic at the Colston Hall, Bristol, in May 2011.
But most important of all, the residency will focus on open debate of the complexity of music copyright and intellectual property. A short symposium (including live performance) is planned, which will illustrate the key findings of artist, composer and musician alike.

Welcome to the October 30, 2009 edition of carnival against child abuse. As the Halloween holiday approaches, many of us will be welcoming costumed children to our door and passing out goodies. As we do so, let's remember that some of these children may be in trouble...we may never know the pain of some of the children that pass by our door. That's why its so important that each and every one of us do what we can, big or small, to help fight child abuse and to be the village of loving, caring, responsible adults that every child deserves (and to hold others in our community accountable to be that as well). Thanks to all who have dedicated their time to presenting ideas in this blog carnival.
Advocacy & Awareness
Surbhi Bhatia presents Will the Slumdogs ever become Millionaires? posted at The Viewspaper » The Viewspaper. The outrageous exploitation of the children of the film does not tell the whole story, there are many like them whose faces are not seen.
Carolyn Friedman presents 50 Things Your Child Should Never Know posted at Nurse Practitioner Schools, which provides a good jumping off point for important discussions with your children.
Patricia Singleton presents Lies Incest Perpretrators Tell Their Victims posted at Spiritual Journey of a Lightworker, describing it as "A list of lies that you may have been told if you grew up with incest in your family."
Pop Tart presents Preventing Sexual Child Abuse posted at MotherhoodMetamorphosis, discussing the book My Body Belongs to Me.
vjack presents Do Good Works Balance Clergy Sexual Abuse? posted at Atheist Revolution which responds to a common excuse for covering up clergy sex abuse.
Marj aka Thriver presents Take a Stand, Raise Your Hand! posted at Survivors Can Thrive!, saying, "I guess, over the years, I've decided that the best way to work to end child abuse--especially child sexual abuse--is to: Stop The Silence...to Silence The Shame...to Break The Cycle. Child abuse perpetuates in our silence and shame. We need to be talking about it! So, in this post, I'm raising my hand; I've got something to say!" And she says it in an inspiring poem.
Colleen Spiro presents How to Help A Survivor of Child Sexual Abuse posted at Surviving by Grace, saying, "Not sure if this is advocacy or awareness .. whet do you think?"

Thursday Thrift Fun
Well I have been having fun going to thrift stores and yard sales, plus some of the vintage Christmas things came from moms. These globes I think I will make some pretty Christmas decorations with. The step table I am keeping---it's solid wood with no veneer and was a real bargain. The wall shelves will be painted white and the shawl is from Liz Claiborne and I love shawls when it's cool. The pink vanity mirror will be perfect in my new pink room. Not sure if the paper mache angel is old but fell in love with it when I saw it. And as you can see there is a 30G Zune that my son won playing games on the internet and you win points, but only one item per address, so he sent it to me. It will hold movies, music, pictures, and videos. The antique hand driven sewing machine is my aunts, so it's only on loan to me. I gave up bingo and I find this is more fun. The little mouse with the train still works and even though most of my Christmas things are new, I may keep it---haven't decided yet. Well I hope you enjoyed my Thursday Thrift Day. Still have more, but will wait until next Thursday to post them. Blessings, Pat

Love all your stuff...the Singer sewing machine is exactly like the one my mum owns, well, actually the wooden domed cover is...her machine doesn't have all the gold swirls on it. Her machine is almost in mint condition as she never did much sewing. It is driven by a metal knee/thigh bar bit attachment that attaches to the lower right hand side edge of the machine front.

4th Annual BioBonanza to Showcase UK Research
By Jillian Gibney
UK's Department of Biology's annual open house festival will take place 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 5, at the Don and Cathy Jacobs Science Building.
Join the University of Kentucky Department of Biology for its fourth annual BioBonanza, a one-day open house festival, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 5, at the Don and Cathy Jacobs Science Building (600 Rose St., Lexington).
This free public event is an open house festival that showcases the scientific research taking place at UK. The event is designed to get children of all ages interested in science. Attendees will have hands-on experience with researchers studying insects, crayfish, zebrafish, native plants and circadian rhythms, to name a few.
Free parking is available in the Rose Street parking structure accessible from Hilltop Avenue, next to the Jacobs Science Building.
The event is supported by the Department of Biology, the Biology Graduate Student Association (BGSA) and the Biomedical Graduate Student Organization (BGSO).
Visit the BioBonanza Facebook page for more information at www.facebook.com/BioBonanza/.
The University of Kentucky is increasingly the first choice for students, faculty and staff to pursue their passions and their professional goals. In the last two years, Forbes has named UK among the best employers for diversity and INSIGHT into Diversity recognized us as a Diversity Champion two years running. UK is ranked among the top 30 campuses in the nation for LGBTQ* inclusion and safety. The Chronicle of Higher Education judged us a "Great College to Work for," and UK is among only 22 universities in the country on Forbes' list of "America's Best Employers." We are ranked among the top 10 percent of public institutions for research expenditures — a tangible symbol of our breadth and depth as a university focused on discovery that changes lives and communities. And our patients know and appreciate the fact that UK HealthCare has been named the state's top hospital for three straight years. Accolades and honors are great. But they are more important for what they represent: the idea that creating a community of belonging and commitment to excellence is how we honor our mission to be not simply the University of Kentucky, but the University for Kentucky.

What is AppFlow?
In the video below we can learn that AppFlow is a protocols that can be used for application monitoring and visibility. With the industry acceptance of ADS/ADC systems (Application Delivery System and Application Delivery Controller) it is therefor logically rational to extend load balancers functionality to allow them to collect application specific data. The idea is similar how sFlow/Netflow work where additionally to IP and TCP based information we want to collect application specify information as well.

Once I thought it up, I couldn't NOT build it.
I was inspired by the growing community of tiny house and vardo builders, particularly the beautiful and well documented vardo-trailer built by Paleotool (whose name I think is George) and a number of fun and lovely gypsy-style campers being built by members of the Society for Creative Anachronism, of which I am a very fringe participant.
I am an old Ren Faire rat, historic reenactor and general lover of all that is archaic. I wanted a camping trailer that I could actually introduce into period camping events without raising too many eyebrows. My wife and I have camped under canvas for decades and are ready for some more comfort and convenience. So the challenge was to design and build a camper that could pass historic muster without too much suspension of disbelief.
For many, the solution is to build a gypsy wagon style trailer. As Paleotool demonstrates this is an excellent design for a whimsical camper. Many builders even attach "stage wheels" (stage as is theater) to add to the impression. For me, however, this presented two problems: first, gypsy wagons date back only to the 19th century, whereas our reenacting covers medieval, renaissance and Napoleonic periods. Secondly, I AM NOT A GYPSY! A gentlemen and his lady need to arrive and reside in a vehicle that is fitted to their station in life.
With that design brief (plus numerous other requirements for size and utility), I began an extensive research and doodling phase while I watched Craigslist for a suitable trailer as the foundation of our camper.Many ideas were considered and rejected before I settled on my chief inspiration, the Royal Mail Coach. Used from the 18th into the 19th centuries, these were large wagons that carried passengers, cargo and the mails all over England. As they were supplanted by the early railroads, many were converted to private use and were known as "park drags." I wonder if that is where "drag racing" comes from.
The Royal Mail Coach provided a great basic shape for my design, particularly with the very recognizable shape of the "passenger compartment" which in fact carried over to the design of early railroad carriages. Instead of the luggage compartments and rooftop seating of the Mail Coach, I cheated and raised the roof profile both fore and aft, and of course incorporated this space in the interior compartment. I retained the pronounced footboard for the driver–when this is latched closed it provides a reasonably aerodynamic shape for the trailer when it is being towed.
The rest is a story long and dismal–the build took 18 months and I'm still not quite finished. I took many pictures along the way, and both to tickle my vanity and to amuse others I plan to document much of the process on this blog. I hope it proves of value to someone.

Manhattan, New York native Nick Schulman is a professional poker player who is known for winning Season 4 of the World Poker Tour (WPT) World Poker Finals NL Hold'Em event in 2005 at Foxwoods. For his efforts, Schulman pocketed a hefty $2,167,500—the single-season record for a regular WPT event. Adding to this impressive feat, Schulman was only 21 years of age at the time, thus becoming the youngest winner of a WPT event.
Early life
Since the age of 13, Schulman has been a world-class pool player, having been taught and mentored by many of New York City's finest at Amsterdam Billiards. He is also a self-proclaimed boxing fanatic and—like many poker players—a chess enthusiast. Additionally, like many of this generations players Schulman began his poker journey online.
With age, experience, and maturity, Schulman has continued his rise into poker immortality. He has also embraced his new career as an exceptional poker color commentator where his intelligence, charisma, and knowledge truly shine.
On the felt
Less than a month after his impressive WPT championship, Nick Schulman finished 4th in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Atlantic City circuit event and won nearly $75,000.
Then, in April, 2006, he emerged victorious in the WPT Battle of Champions IV after eliminating Freddy Deeb.
In 2007, Schulman placed second at the World Poker Finals $10,000 NL Hold'Em event at Foxwoods, winning nearly $865, 000.
Two years later, Schulman won his first highly coveted WSOP bracelet in the $10,000 World Championship NL 2-7 Draw Lowball event. He beat such renowned players as David Benyamine, Michael Binger, and John Juanda en route to pocketing a hefty $279,751. Then, in 2012, Schulman snagged his second WSOP bracelet in the same event and took home nearly $300,000. Schulman did well in subsequent years as well, placing 4th in 2013, 2nd in 2015, and 3rd in 2017.
In 2013, Schulman won the Bay 101 Shooting Stars $25,000 NL Hold'Em High Roller Event and a respectable $270,480.
August, 2017, proved to be an extremely profitable month for Schulman when he won both the 2017 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open $50K NL Hold'Em Super High Roller event and $440,000, as well as the 2017 Poker Masters $50K NL Hold'Em event and $918,000.
To date, the 33-year-old Nick Schulman has amassed nearly $10.4 million in total live tournament winnings from his five titles and 69 career cashes. He currently ranks 38th on the U.S. All Time Money List.

Away from the table…well kind of
In September, 2010, Schulman appeared on Andrew Jenks' MTV documentary style show World of Jenks where he detailed his early poker success, financial difficulties, and ongoing struggle with depression and anxiety.

Even more recently, Schulman picked up a microphone and now provides highly lauded commentary on the game at which he excels. His first major gig was alongside veteran commentator Ali Nejad as the color man for the 2016 $300K buy-in Super High Roller Bowl for CBS Sports. Schulman received praise from peers and fans alike for his tremendous insight and pleasant personality.
Watch him explain his entrance into the wonderful world of broadcasting. Schulman's enthusiasm is obvious and infectious.
[This post contains video, click to play]
Schulman also won the prestigious Broadcaster of the Year award at the 2018 American Poker Awards. Congratulations, Nick!
Not only has handling the mic made Schulman a very capable commentator, but the experience has also improved his own play. How could it not? Such a newfound perspective is healthy in all aspects of one's life, and Schulman's has served him splendidly.
Nick Schulman in action
Recently, Schulman was a guest on Joe Ingram's Poker Life podcast where he discussed his success with high-stakes poker and his new broadcasting career.
You can also take a look at Nejad and Schulman call the final table of the 2017 Super High Roller Bowl here.
To stay abreast of Schulman's impressive poker career, his broadcasting gigs, adorable dog, and other happenings, check out his relatively new Twitter feed. Additionally, if you are a PokerGo subscriber, take a look at Nick Schulman's appearance on Ali Nejad's Super High Roller Club where the two men hit a different type of felt at New York's Society Billiards and discussed the similarities between pool and poker.

Jamie Foxx Came For Bruce Jenner At The iHeartRadio Music Awards
Jamie Foxx hosted the iHeartRadio Music Awards in LA last night, and joked about Bruce Jenner transitioning. Here's what he said. Let me know if you agree with me that Jamie might be stuck in 1986 in his head.
"He's doing a his and her duet all by himself."
He's so edgy. If you're going to kick a man while he's going through something, at least make it funny and/or daring. Hell, I'd be more impressed if you joked about him possibly killing Grandma. Or go for his taste in women. That's some tired "Open Mike Night" down at the Laff Hut shit for a multimillionaire hosting an awards show. Earn your money, Wanda. Just because Bruce is becoming the ethereal beauty that you will never be or hope to claim as your own, it doesn't mean you should vent your jealousy by appealing to the transphobic dickfucks (like Pimp Mama Kris) out there.
He also made a joke about how he was busting Bruce Jenner's balls while he still had them. Fist Brown thought it was hilarious, sitting in the audience all tattooed and purple-haired, looking like Grimace's girlfriend's partial abortion. Remain seated, Fist.
Humanity isn't thrilled with Jamie Fuxx's (typo and don't even think it's not stayin') lil' gag, either. CNN posted viewer Tweets slapping him down for his insensitivity.
The only good to come out of this is that Jamie's lame joke totally reminded me of this visual and audio candy from whenst I was but a child. I can remember thinking that magic was real!
Check out Jamie Fuxx (I'm starting to like that typo) at the iHeart Radio Awards below.

Kundali Bhagya 17 July 2019 Episode Written Update: Sherlyn Finds Out That Mahesh Is Alive
In the previous episode of Kundali Bhagya, Mahesh tells Preeta that he will bring her back to the Luthra house. He also wants her to become her bahu. He warns her about Prithvi and asks her to not marry him. When he leaves Preeta's house Mahesh is followed by Sherlyn and Prithvi's hired criminal. He convinces Mahesh to drive on an abandoned road. He then attacks Mahesh and leaves him for dead on the roadside.
Watch the latest episode here.
In tonight's episode, Prithvi and Sherlyn are sitting nervously when they get a call from Raka. He tells them that he has killed Mahesh Luthra in such a way that it looks like a car accident. Sherlyn and Prithvi are celebrating when the Luthra's reach home.
Before settling in they get a call telling them that Mahesh has been in an accident. They rush to the hospital where they find Mahesh's unconscious body being taken to the operation theatre. Kritika and Chachi call up Preeta telling her about what happened. Preeta hears about Mahesh's accident and rushes to be at the hospital.
Kareena calls up Sherlyn and asks her to come to the hospital. Sherlyn finds out that Mahesh is not yet dead. She reaches the hospital and cries with the family. She then tells them how Mahesh wanted to apologise to Preeta because after Preeta left, the house felt sad and empty.
Sherlyn says Mahesh was taking money and jewelry to buy Preeta's forgiveness. She says Preeta must have insulted Mahesh and kicked him out of her house like Karan had done to her. Will Karan and the Luthras believe Sherlyn and go against Preeta? Stay tuned to find out.
Watch the latest episode of Kundali Bhagya, now streaming on ZEE5.

2. a random sequence of words inn the subject line of a spam email, generated to fool spam filters
- My Spam box today only had nine e-mail messages, the first and last were not Spam as I had deleted it around midnight last night. Most days I will get between 150 and 250 Spam e-mailings, sometimes even more
- So I didn't have too much to work with. The numbers in parentheses (x) denotes how many extra words in each line I used, i.e. were not within the Spam. I changed tense or case and did NOT count that nor did I count changing the lady's name to Laurie.
- I used the top and the bottom lines but they are not Spam. We have visited Isle of Man and loved it. My maternal grandfather's family (Corkhill) was from Isle of Man. We talked with one Corkhill while there and found many, many more listed in the phone book.

Located in the "military section" of the Cave Hill National Cemetery, this structure is all the remains of a rostrum constructed in 1898. It was once a speaking platform for the various remembrance events and ceremonies held in this section of the cemetery. It has not seen use in a number of years, and though somewhat conserved, it has fallen into relic condition.
A view of the rostrum, approaching it from the side. It sits at the base of a hill near a small pond.
View from the rostrum, looking up the nearby hills. When it was built, most of the graves were of Civil War soldiers, and it probably functioned to commemorate those dead in regular ceremonies held by different civic groups.
New Albany National Cemetery, as well as the Zachary Taylor National Cemetery a few miles away.

Adalimumab binds to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors. Adalimumab also lyses surface TNF expressing cells in vitro in the presence of complement.
Used in the treatment of immune system mediated diseases, adalimumab binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its general cytokine effects, thereby reducing TNF-induced inflammation and halting tissue destruction.
Most likely removed by opsonization via the reticuloendothelial system.

Unfortunately there was a smooshing together of two different subjects in the latest post. I did not mean to have the care/not care comment and the thank you to those who checked in on us be together. We of course know that millions of people we're caring in many many ways, and that friends were caring who were concerned about taking our attention. The reference to "not caring" was meant to refer to those who were exploiting the disaster. Having friends who are dealing with the storm we too keep trying to figure out whether or not to contact them or trust they know we care.I regret that I didn't check that copy to catch that misleading construction. And I called myself an English teacher!
8 thoughts on "Whoops."
I did wonder.
Sent from my iPhone
No explanation necessary. Caring is solace for the "carer", and a good thing in itself. Care felt by the "caree" is good for both. Care expressed is good for all who know of it! It's all good and you both have and give each! Fix the boat! Joe

Goalkeeper Danny Vukovic says confidence is so high within the Perth Glory camp on the back of their impressive form that they feel they are genuine Hyundai A-League title contenders.
Goalkeeper Danny Vukovic says confidence is so high within the Perth Glory camp on the back of their impressive form that they feel they are genuine Hyundai A-League title contenders.
The third-placed Glory (34 points) are hot on the heels of Brisbane, who sit second with 38, and can vastly increase the pressure on the Roar by winning Saturday's match between the two sides at nib Stadium. (kick-off 6.45pm)
Despite Perth's strong run, which has seen them win six of their past eight games and lose just one of 10, coach Ian Ferguson has said the focus remains on guaranteeing a finals spot.
But Vukovic said the squad firmly believed they can do much better than just making the top six and could challenge the likes of Brisbane and Central Coast for the championship.
"We're sitting third, we're only four points off Brisbane so a good result on the weekend we'll be sitting very pretty with four or five games to go," he said.
"I think we can win the league."
"I mean win the league as in the Grand Final. I think the Mariners are just a little bit too far, but at the end of the day anything can happen."
"With the majority of our games at home, and the tougher ones of those games at home, we're confident."
Three of Perth's final five matches are at nib Stadium, but none figures to be more important than the clash against the Roar, who've bounced back into form with three-straight wins.
Winger Travis Dodd said the Glory were hungry to make up for their last match against Brisbane, where they led 2-0 but only came away with a 3-3 draw.
"We really should have won that game," Dodd said.
"Being 2-0 up, at home, they're the kind of games that you really need to be winning and to come away with a 3-all draw was a bit like a loss."
"We know that it wasn't good enough, the result there, but we're confident going into this game."
"As a team we've come a long way, our results have come along really well. There's no reason why we can't go in expecting to win this game."
"It's a massive opportunity not only for us to cement ourselves in a top six spot but to put pressure on Brisbane."

To the Editor:
On Nov. 6, I would encourage the voters of Lyme and Old Lyme to support our state Rep. Devin Carney for re-election. Devin has proven himself to be a strong leader at the Capitol, becoming ranking member of the powerful Transportation Committee in only his second term. He has worked hard to improve our economy with structural budget reform, reduced spending and reduced bonding.
In addition, he truly cares about Lyme and Old Lyme and is always there to help maintain our quality of life. He frequently holds office hours and is always there to listen to our concerns. When policies are proposed that threaten our municipal tax structure or take away our local control, Devin is there to support and defend us. He has been a staunch advocate for open space and environmental issues, including supporting a Constitutional Amendment that will protect environmentally precious land.
Devin Carney deserves another term and I know the residents of Lyme and Old Lyme would be well served if he is re-elected.
Rowland Ballek,
