The acquisition of the Estonian bunkering company AS Baltic Marine Bunker from AS NT Marine is complete. This is the second foreign asset of Gazpromneft Marine Bunker, the operator of Gazprom Neft's bunkering business. The first, a Romanian company, was acquired early this year.
AS Baltic Marine Bunker's assets include a bunkering tanker with a total deadweight of 2786 tons designed for bunkering with both dark and light types of marine fuel. Gazpromneft Marine Bunker sells on the Baltic bunkering market low-sulfur marine fuel supplied by Gazprom Neft's oil refineries. The company holds all of the necessary licenses, as well as contracts for transshipment and storage at the terminal.

Gazpromneft Marine Bunker is planning to sell at least 270,000 tons of marine fuel at the Port of Tallinn each year. The company also plans to expand its market presence by cooperating with shipowners and improving the quality of ship services.
"Gazprom Neft's updated bunkering business strategy to 2025 involves a significant expansion of the company's presence abroad and taking up recognizable positions on the international market. The consistent acquisition of assets first in the Black Sea region and now in the Baltic becomes the basis for the company's future successful international expansion," commented Gazprom Neft Deputy CEO for Logistics, Refining, and Sales Anatoly Cherner.
Gazpromneft Marine Bunker is a subsidiary of Gazprom Neft created in 2007 for the organization of year-round marine fuel and lubricant supplies for sea and river transportation. The enterprise occupies leading positions on Russia's bunkering market with an 18.6 percent market share, and operates at fifteen seaports and nine river ports. About 85 percent of consumers of the company's services are foreign ship owners. In 2012, Gazpromneft Marine Bunker increased its bunker fuel direct delivery sales volume by 40 percent to 1.8 million tons and thereby established its leading status for this indicator among Russian companies. Gazpromneft Marine Bunker's total marine fuel sales volume in 2012 reached 2.9 million tons.
In 2013, Gazprom Neft updated its strategy for the development of its bunkering business by extending the limits of its plans to the year 2025.
Gazpromneft Marine Bunker made its entry onto the international market in March 2013 by acquiring the Romanian company Marine Bunker Balkan S.A., which operates at the Black Sea port of Constanța. The Port of Tallinn (AS Tallinna Sadam) is Estonia's largest transit hub. It contains five port zones: Old City Harbor, Muuga Harbor, Paldiski South Harbor, Paljassaare Harbor, and Saaremaa Harbor. A total of 420,000 tons of marine fuel is consumed at the port each year. According to the strategy of AS Tallinna Sadam, the volume of goods passing through the Port of Tallinn should rise by 46 percent between 2012 and 2020, up to 43.2 million tons, while the number of passengers should rise during the same period by 20.7 percent, up to 10.67 million.

I have woefully neglected this little blog of mine, due to random summer activities and limited computer access. In light of this, here is a long overdue update with an overload of picture highlights of the past several weeks.
We've celebrated a few weddings in several different States:
Memorial Day Weekend:
My brother and his new wife were here for a visit from Germany over Memorial Day weekend, and we had a cookout and a few get togethers with all the siblings in the area (OH is included in this area):
Visited Jungle Jim's for the first time and found the best aisle, obviously:
Celebrated my birthday:
And that's about it. Lots of traveling, visiting family, school, work and hopefully soon we'll be getting some bike rides and other adventures in!
What have you been up to so far this summer?

Athena is one of the few guards i build just tank and cdr. She doesn't need anything else. You can build her with dmg, void, etheral even polynomicon but i personally feel its for games when team is to tarded to blow up ppl when u taunt.
Athena is one of the few guards i build just tank and cdr. She doesn't need anything else. You can build her with dmg, void, etheral even polynomicon but i personally feel its for games when team is to tarded to blow up ppl when u taunt.
However charging first means they don't get pulled towards your team as much so it's harder for team mates to do damage and you loose your escape so it's a bit less safe.
Pen Boot - Void Stone - Breastplate - Flex Item (preferably with either more pen, prot or hp), Discord, Flex Item (preferably with either more pen, prot, or hp) - Power Pot.
Gets you true damage or near true damage on squishies and 40% CDR while still being tanky.
What do I put here now?
The most important items on athena is void, shogun, sover unless you have a secondary tank. Just buff the teams dmg and your set. Who cares if you are 10k when your carries are 40-50k.
Always use the taunt first then move back and 3. Setting up your own 3 is stupid. You should have a team follow up on the taunt with stuns and similar that is how you confirm the 3s 2nd hit. You build full tank cause just go in with 1 and taunt, pull em back into team. You have ult for escape if needed. You can initiate with ult as well then its good to save the 1 most times for the escape this probably work better as tactic for a dmg athena, needs some nice coms though.I think I know Athenas basic combos: pull em in with your 2 onto the damage of your 3 and throw a ranged attack at them.

meh cdr boots are over rated, and pen boots are only after I get full build, until then I'm getting extra gold. n2m there are so many cdr items anymore, hell I can't remember the last time I got BPoV. btw gengi's, shoguns, spirit, mantle, mail of renewal, relic dagger, witchblade. I've always got close enuff to max cdr.
athena's taunt makes her the target of entire team fights she needs more tank then others imo. and I cringe when I see tanks who build all prot and no HP. gotta be looking at enemy comp and builds, hell even your team... 2 shoguns is a fail. with crit being viable I've even gone to the 5k hp build a few times gotta be careful tho of those pesky hunters who adjust their build.
In the example you gave you were comparing Athena against Cabraken who is more of a damage guardian. He even almost went a fat loki build so his damage was definitely going to be higher. Some guardians can go nearly full defense and still do a lot of damage. Athena though if you want higher damage number you will have to invest in a few more damage items or atleast more hybrid items.
Part of the problem may be other players not knowing how to play with an Athena.
I did a Joust match earlier, since I had a quest for using Greek in 3 matches, I did Athena once since I have not used her in a bit. My 2 squisher allies kept going out in front of me making it hard to tank for them and I couldn't say anything about it because they kept sniping each other in chat, I didn't want to add to that.
It was as if they had no clue what to do from my viewpoint, let me tank and target people when the time is right.
In a good game that is wall to wall fighting you will die so fast with building dmg.. Dmg supports will get focused and bursted down.
I was chatting to a guy I met online yesterday through smite, we had mics and we was joking about a few games back when we came across this dmg building warrior on the enemy team and how building dmg items on tanks means they focus you and die, the warrior in that game wasn't really a threat because we would burst him down and kill him so fast it wasn't funny because most of his kit was dmg items.
In order to front line you need to have items that are defence items.. You also as Athena need to protect your backline ( her peel is amazing ) .. she can deal good base dmg as she levels up.. She deals amazing dmg to camps also. The only time I've gone dmg items is when I'm winning
If you didnt know, her spear throw does good dmg and she can throw multi spears like this
Dash in, throw spear, taunt throw spear, dmg, throw spear, whatever but something like that
I have Athena at 8k+ worshippers and most of my diamonds are guards.. To keep up to date watch twitch, look for support streamers and watch them. They will show you that not all support players are are brain dead players who picked support because it's " easy " as I've been told in the past
Hope this helped.
To add to this the dmg combo is dash in, 3 then taunt but if you have a good team just rush in and taunt. Because if you 3 then most will have seen it and cc you or interrupted you to stop you taunting, plus many " newb" Athena's do it, but good players will get out or run away . My best advice I got was from Jeff the sex. He said to always look to try and taunt 2 people or more in team fights and I do if I can

What is happening here? I've seen a lot of horrible builds, Solo builds and everything but not support builds.
How hard can it be to 1-3-2-3 with her kit? her taunt duration is going to be more than enough for your allies to reach the enemy.
As RockerBaby said, don't get too greedy to force the double tick on the 3rd ability, you're an support, just taunt if you see the double tick is impossible.
As for builds, long time no played support but for real, there was absolutely no support build.
Athena deals a GREAT damage even with 0 damage items.
All you need is Shoes of the Magi.
Cdr? Damage? i'm sorry what? Please don't ever try to post something like that. You won't need cdr. You won't use your ability 48times in a row.

The recent recession, the longest since The Great Depression, lasted from December 2007 until June 2009, according to a Sept. 20 announcement from the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), the pre-eminent group calibrating the duration and depth of U.S. downturns. The way the NBER renders such verdicts, however, is often overlooked.
Recessions are commonly said to occur when an economy contracts for at least two consecutive quarters, in terms of real Gross Domestic Product.
While that may be a good rule of thumb, the genuine NBER definition of a recession does not hinge solely on GDP, but instead identifies "a significant decline in economic activity spread across the economy, lasting more than a few months, normally visible in real GDP, real income, employment, industrial production, and wholesale-retail sales," as a bureau fact sheet stated. Moreover, the bureau calculates economic activity based on monthly statistics, not just quarterly figures. This approach is used in other countries as well; Statistics Canada, the Canadian statistical agency, uses a similar methodology.
By using several metrics, not just real GDP, and by dating recessions in months, not quarters, the NBER is better able to assess the full complexity of the country's economic ups and downs. "Two consecutive quarters of very modest declines in real output might not constitute a significant decline in economic activity — but the popular rule would indicate that they represented a recession," noted James Poterba, MIT's Mitsui Professor of Economics, and the current president of the NBER. Conversely, Poterba explained, "A period of alternating sharp quarterly declines and very modest upturns, however, would not meet the 'two-quarter' test, but might represent a significant and long-lasting decline in economic activity."
Indeed, some recessions do not include two consecutive quarters of real GDP decline: The downturn lasting from March 2001 until November 2001, which the NBER considers a recession, never had more than one formal quarter of contraction in a row. The monthly statistics also allow the bureau to paint economic history in sharp relief. The Great Depression, as the NBER sees it, consisted of a 43-month downturn from August 1929 to March 1933, followed by a 13-month slump from May 1937 to June 1938. The most recent recession lasted 18 months.
In evaluating the nuances of the economy's recent path, the NBER dated the start of the recession to December 2007 even though GDP actually rose slightly into early 2008. But employment peaked in December 2007, which, among other factors, helped guide the NBER's evaluation.
Before pinpointing the end of the recession, the bureau weighed 10 separate metrics, including multiple estimates of monthly GDP; Gross Domestic Income (GDI) and a related but separate measure known as real personal income; manufacturing and trade sales; and three different employment estimates. Five of the 10 indicators bottomed out in June 2009, and the NBER decided that the bulk of the evidence was sufficient to show that the economy began recovering after that month.
The NBER's definition of a recession thus involves a more deliberative process, when it comes to identifying substantial downturns, than conventional wisdom implies. The bureau's eight-person Business Cycle Dating Committee, comprised of leading macroeconomists, meets at periodic intervals (in person or by conference call) to discuss the data. In April 2010, the committee met and decided the data was too fuzzy to warrant a verdict. This month, the verdict was clear — although as Poterba noted, that hardly means the NBER is saying the economic situation is rosy.
"Today, 15 months after the economy began a slow recovery, unemployment remains far higher than its historical average, which suggests that there are still substantial underutilized resources in our economy," said Poterba, responding to questions by e-mail. "It is possible for the economy to be on a slowly improving trajectory, as it has been since June 2009, even when the unemployment rate is well above its historical average. The key distinction is between the level of economic activity and its rate of change — the rate of change can be positive, but the level can be low, which is the current situation."

As an elementary school student, there is nothing more exciting than seeing yourself represented in the teaching materials, textbooks, or resources used in class. In a classroom where there are a variety of cultures and traditions, it can sometimes be a bit daunting to ensure that everyone feels welcome. It often requires outside research and time on the teacher's part, and there is always the fear that someone might take offense if traditions or holidays are accidentally addressed inappropriately.
Luckily, there are actually a number of good online sources for Diwali teaching resources and Christmas teaching resources, that will have all of your students enjoying themselves. The best way to instill an appreciation of a variety of cultures and practices in any young person, is to present them in such a way that they are fun, exciting experiences. The early positive impression will go a long way towards informing how they view themselves, and those around them, as adults.

For enthusiasts and researchers of the Great Eastern Railway
NEW OCTOBER 2015. In the early days of British Railways there was an Eastern Region Staff Railway Society – a group of railway workers who were interested in railways – whose headquarters were described as the Up Main Platform, Seven Kings Station (later Goodmayes). In the early 1970s they published a total of nine small magazines which they called Handbooks. All of them are supplied on this CD, in word-searchable form. The number of pages in them ranged from 96 to 148, including adverts. The front cover was in colour, and occasional colour was used inside to adorn some of the editorial pages and a few of the adverts. There were many photographs (both of steam and of the railway of the time), often supplied by members, but these were always in black and white.
If you place an order for this item, the CD will be posted to you.

Tyga Is Not Doing Kylie Jenner, So Says Tyga
Tyga, Tigger's creepy cousin who was kicked out of the Hundred Acre Wood for hitting on Christopher Robin's little friends, went on Power 105's The Breakfast Club this morning to talk about the Whore War between Amber Rose and Khloe Kartrashian that broke out over him possibly wet humping on 17-year-old Kylie Jenner. If 25-year-old Tyga actually admitted to R. Kelly'ing a minor, the lizard police may have dragged his salamander-looking ass away for statutory rape, so of course he denied being with Kylie like that and said that they're just really, really good friends.
Tyga asked to go on The Breakfast Club after his ex's friend, Amber Rose, said on the same show that he needs to leave that little Jenner girl alone. Amber's comments caused the Kardashian family guard dog, Kujo Kardashian, to bark at her on Twitter and that led to them fighting over who the biggest whore is. Tyga should've just left it at, "I am not fucking that Jenner," but he just had to keep going. Either Tyga is a lie-telling pedotiger or he's suffering from some kind of brain damage, or both, because who admits out loud that they "respect" Pimp Mama Kris?!
On if he's doing the baby of the Kartrashian/Jenner family: "I'm not dating Kylie. I just want to get that out the way. I want to be clear to everybody that I didn't leave my family to be with Kylie. That's ridiculous. Me and Chyna, we broke up almost close to a year now, because of the decision we made, and things in our relationship that wasn't going right, we decided to split to raise an emotionally stable kid."
On how white people (read: PMK, only PMK) don't think it's weird that he, a grown 25 year old, is regularly hanging out with a minor he isn't related to: "In black culture, it's different. If you hanging around with somebody, you smashing them. In white culture, it's different. They really are friends. They like really, like 'This is my friend.' It's genuine. It's different. How we think it's a little different with our mentality. If I'm friends with her and I'm friends her sister, they 'hos' or we 'smashing' them. We're really friends. I respect her mom."
On how Kylie has good "energy" and comes from a good family: "The thing about her, she's just a good person. You ever meet somebody and you feel like they're energy is just good. It's like not negative. We're not talking about what's on MediaTakeout today or what's negative. She's just a good person and comes from a good upbringing."
Toddlers usually have "good energy" until you refuse to give them more animal crackers and they probably don't talk about what's on MediaTakeout, because Kylie is too busy going on and on about the puzzle she almost solved in Highlights Magazine while waiting for her lip injection appointment at her pedia plastic surgeon's office.
While watching this interview, I kept waiting for Chris Hansen and mental health professionals to jump out from under the table and drag Tyga away, because he was not making a good case for himself in the "not doing Kylie Jenner" department and he was not making a good case for the current state of his mental health by saying that Kylie Jenner comes from a good upbringing.
Elsewhere, Amber Rose brought OJ Simpson into her Whore War with Khlozilla, and Wiz Khalifa wants more custody of his child with Amber Rose, because he claims she's always out at night (um, isn't that her job?) and lets the family dog lick their kid's face when it eats its own shit. Um, Wiz isn't the one to throw judgmental looks at the dog for eating shit, because I'm sure his mouth has touched nastier things.
Here's Tyga's NOT-piece Kylie Jenner walking to English class at her school yesterday and what I mean by that is she went to a fashion show in NYC.

A Dead Man in Deptford Summary
(Literary Masterpieces, Critical Compilation)
Master storyteller Anthony Burgess returns to a subject that has fascinated him for more than fifty years in this astonishing historical novel of the life and death of Christopher Marlowe. The sketchy facts of the playwright's life are few. Two biographies of Marlowe written in the twentieth century build upon those slender facts and add to them avowed speculation about his highly controversial life. Burgess artfully draws upon biography and speculation, contemporary events and remarks, historical possibilities and plausibilities to present a supposed Marlowe of his own creation, a fictional character with roots in the historical person. Dividing his tale into three parts, Burgess deals first with Marlowe's student days up to 1587, next with his London years as a celebrated playwright, and finally with the last days of Marlowe's life, in Westminster before the Privy Council and in Deptford at the public house of the Widow Eleanor Bull.
Burgess tells the story of Marlowe's life through a fictive narrator, an actor and musician who, in Elizabethan tradition, played women's roles as a youth and says that he is named as playing Balthasar in the stage directions to act 2, scene 3 in Heminge and Condell's 1623 edition of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. This narrator, named Jack Wilson in the First Folio edition of Shakespeare's plays, whom Burgess gratuitously abandons in the novel's final paragraph to proclaim himself the author (an artistically unnecessary revelation), speaks throughout in Elizabethan language. For scholars and aficionados this will be caviar to the general, but it will please not the million with its difficulty of word and syntax. Thus does Burgess further complicate his complicated tale by using both recondite and incondite language. His playing about with an age-old Shakespearean debate about Wilson's identity does, on the other hand, indicate the wonderful complexity of the work, a complexity that reflects the enormous variety of the period itself. For those who understand the language, this is a superlative story superlatively told by a seventeenth century voice.
The telling begins with Kit Marlowe's Cambridge days. Upon graduation from the King's School in his native Canterbury, he becomes embroiled in the raging religious debates of the Reformation. The religious and the political—and both laying claim to the scientific—were inextricable elements of identity and identification in Elizabethan times. Deviation from the Church of England could and did have deadly consequences, particularly for Catholic recusants, who might be in league with Mary, Queen of Scots. Marlowe, according to contemporary comments, held himself aloofly skeptical of matters religious and engaged in highly inventive blasphemies; this is the side of the Marlowe reputation Burgess adopts with ingeniously outrageous effect.
Kit Marlowe enters into London's theatrical society; it is at this point that the narrator, playing Bel-Imperia in Thomas Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy, first observes him. This part of the novel affords remarkable glimpses of the luminaries of the period, including James Burbage, owner of the Theatre and the Curtain playhouses; Ned Alleyn, the foremost tragedian of the 1580's; and Philip Henslowe, who was to build the Rose Theatre between his bear pit and his brothel on Bankside. It also provides a blow-by-blow description of a tavern brawl, followed by Kit's induction into the Service at the hands of its chief, Sir Francis Walsingham, Queen Elizabeth's secretary of state.
There is some haziness about the sequence of events the narrator unfolds. Most scholars contend that the role of Bel-Imperia dates from 1584 at the earliest (when Marlowe took his B.A., and so after his first missions abroad while an undergraduate). Also, while the half-written role of the Queen in Kyd's lost play Hamlet Revenge —which the narrator claims to be conning before Kit takes his M.A. (July 4,...

This fall is shaping up to be a strange time for Houston music fans. A handful of prominent concerts have been either canceled or postponed — Coldplay, Eric Church, Mary J. Blige, Sturgill Simpson, Olivia Newton-John just Wednesday — but the festival scene has really been hit hard. Just this week, those calling the shots at Index Fest and Houston Open Air decided to cancel those events because, in so many words, they just weren't ready to move forward; it's probably a toss-up whether that means "logistically" or "psychologically." Maybe both. Likewise, word has since come down that the smaller Yes, Indeed! has decided to sit this year out as well.
Though it's certainly understandable, it's quickly becoming apparent that the mere idea of having fun for its own sake rubs a lot of people the wrong way right now. Perhaps the most revealing glimpse into promoters' post-Harvey state of mind comes not from a music festival but the traveling pop-culture convention Fandemic; after already postponing its three-day Houston stop at NRG Park from this weekend to December, earlier this week it announced a new date of October 2018. The press release did not mince words: "Fandemic Tour remains cognizant that the Houston area and its community has more immediate and pressing concerns over the next few months than leisure."
And yet, to play devil's advocate, that kind of thinking dismisses live music and other "leisure" activities as little more than distractions or diversions, when nothing could be further from the truth. Music heals; that is a demonstrable scientific fact. When Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner went on Face the Nation one week after Harvey blew through and declared the Bayou City "open for business," concerts were one of two specific types of events he mentioned by name. Indeed, since the storm, several live-music events — concert or festival, whether cancelled or not — have incorporated some sort of organized fundraising or donation drive into their business models. The producers of End Hip End It, the psych-rock fest that debuted last year in Old Town Spring, say they're hoping to find a new location and turn the entire event into a Harvey-relief fundraiser. Stay tuned.
So it's with that in mind that the Houston Press has decided to go ahead with our annual rundown of the most promising fall festivals in Houston and the surrounding region — those that are left, that is. Several are happening out of town, but no further than a good day's drive. That's no coincidence. With everything this city has been through in the past month, there's no shame in wanting to get out of town for a few days.
Various locations, Austin, September 14-16
Tickets: $15 to $50
The seasonal changes swirling in the Texas air also bring the third edition of this Austin experimental festival, which features more than 30 acts performing at four different locations: Barracuda, Kick Butt Coffee, Kenny Dorham's Backyard and Victory Grill. Founded and curated by Norwegian bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten, the three-day festival features a wide array of music, from horn enthusiast Joe McPhee to pedal-steel guitarist Susan Alcorn to the cumbia tunes of Carmelo Torres y Los Toscos. Houston represents with the futuristic hip-hop of Jawwaad Taylor and long-running psych-rockers Charalambides. VERONICA ANNE SALINAS
Frank Erwin Center, Austin, September 22
Tickets: $30 to $199
Not a festival per se, but a lineup that blows most out of the water: Willie Nelson, Paul Simon, James Taylor, Bonnie Raitt, Leon Bridges, Lyle Lovett, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Edie Brickell & New Bohemians, Ryan Bingham and more; plus presenters including Dan Rather, Matthew McConaughey and Renée Zellweger. The concert is to be televised across the state via TEGNA stations (including KHOU in Houston) and streamed internationally via Google, but only the first hour of four, meaning if you're not there in person, who knows what you'll miss. Don't overlook the details, either, namely musical director Charlie Sexton (Arc Angels, Bob Dylan), house band Asleep at the Wheel, and the almost limitless guest-star possibilities. Some have grumbled about the concert's placement in Austin rather than, well, Houston, but that's musical politics in Texas for you. Besides, Nelson will play Smart Financial Center November 14 if you must see him live (and you should). Donate and buy tickets now at rebuildtexas.org. CHRIS GRAY
Zilker Park, Austin, October 6-8/October 13-15
Tickets: $255 to $3,600 (Weekend 1 three-day GA passes sold out)
How time flies. Once upon a time, ACL was just another upstart looking to find its place in the crowded festival scene. Now, entering its 15th year, it's unquestionably one of the more anticipated festivals on the musical calendar, so much so that it became a two-weekend affair in 2013. Unequivocal headliner Jay-Z wasn't even part of the original lineup announcement, but alongside Red Hot Chili Peppers, Chance the Rapper, The Killers, and Gorillaz, Hova anchors one of the better bills ACL has ever put together — welcome news after a 2016 bill that some fans derided as somewhat lackluster. CLINT HALE
Sam Houston Race Park, October 14
Tickets: $29.50 to $129 (RV camping extra)
The success of ex-Staind singer Aaron Lewis's turn toward the country side of the tracks can be gauged by the artists playing before him at Ziegenbock's 15th annual racetrack roundup of practically all the honky-tonk and Americana artists worth their guitar strings: Josh Abbott Band, Shooter Jennings, Blackberry Smoke, Whiskey Myers, Jamestown Revival, Uncle Lucius, and Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real...for starters. Seek out the third stage for homegrown acts looking to wow the big crowd, including The Broken Spokes, Josh Fuller Band and Chad Cooke Band. CHRIS GRAY
City Park, New Orleans, October 27-29
Tickets: $140 to $1,300
One could argue that spending Halloween weekend in New Orleans is reason enough to make the trip that weekend. The fact that the flight from Houston to New Orleans runs under an hour certainly doesn't hurt; hell, it takes some people longer to get home in Houston traffic. Throw in one of the best sets of festival headliners going, and you get a must-see experience in Voodoo Fest. Depth be damned; a festival is only as good as its headliners, and Voodoo Fest delivers on that notion. The three-day festival features arguably the hottest rapper in the game today (Kendrick Lamar), the closest thing we have to modern-day rock legends (Foo Fighters) and a band returning to the big stage, one known for its over-the-top, grandiose live show (The Killers). LCD Soundsystem, DJ Snake, The Head and the Heart, Post Malone, and Prophets of Rage help round out the bill, which costs less than $150 for a three-day experience. Did we mention you get to spend Halloween weekend in New Orleans? CLINT HALE
Sam Houston Race Park, October 28-29
Tickets: $139.95 to $219.95
Something Wicked isn't out here trying to reinvent the wheel. This year's headliners are Above & Beyond, Marshmello, Tiësto, and Zed's Dead, all artists who've played the Houston festival scene a time or two already. And that's fine, because they're among the most interesting performers in EDM; give in to the moment and Above & Beyond may just make you cry, y'all. Add to that an undercard full of promise and the thousands of costumes that are typically involved when the festival isn't being rained out, and you've got one of Houston's most reliable festival tickets.

Sherwood Forest Faire, near Austin, November 10-12
Tickets: $189 to $454
As the days grow shorter and the temperatures drop, it's easy for minds to drift to old loves lost. Which is to say, yes, I still miss FunFunFun Fest. Sound on Sound is that new crush we've got, the one that looks a lot like our old ex, but isn't a carbon copy of the past. Sure, the lineup, featuring Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Iggy Pop and Pusha T, among others, feels very FFF, but the change in location from Auditorium Shores to Sherwood Forest makes it feel like it has its own identity, if nothing else. If you're brave enough, you can get your camp on instead of making the trip to and from Austin and its outlying areas every day. And hey, if your dream wedding was punk rock ren fair, consider all your dreams come true. CORY GARCIA

Last Concert Cafe, November 10-12
Tickets: Free
One never knows what to expect from this massive music and arts festival, except for this — there won't be a blind sale for tickets to the event. Since its inception, For the Community has been a free celebration and it remains so for its 14th installment in November. Last Concert Cafe hosts the proceedings for event organizers Visionary Noise and Houston Free Thinkers. The event has long been a springboard for local acts. Kay Weathers, Gio Chamba, Josiah Gabriel, Say Girl Say, Romina von Mohr, Patterns, Dirty Seeds, Sunrise and Ammunition — all are instantly recognizable to Houston music fans and all, and many others, have played past FTC outings. It's become one of the best barometers gauging "what's next" from Houston music. JESSE SENDEJAS JR.
Post HTX, December 15-17
Tickets: $175-$670
Short of cancellation, which is unthinkable, the innovative music/digital-art happening's third year has probably experienced the most disruption of any event on this list. Harvey rolled up just when its promotional engine was set to kick into overdrive; instead, in an almost unfathomable act of charity, publicist Dutch Small wound up arranging thousands of meal deliveries across Houston from his Atlanta hotel room. Since the storm, Day For Night has kept it low-key; its main promotional vehicle has been a soft-focus inspirational video titled "A Love Letter to Houston" that concludes with the promise "see you soon." The blind presale starts today; lineup due September 20. CHRIS GRAY

Screw Fed Disintegrators
M15D Details
Corenco's new screw fed disintegrator addresses customers' difficulties feeding products into the standard angle disintegrator. Feeding issues generally accompany bulky products that have high adhesion, such as dried fruit, and products that have high buoyancy (high surface area and low bulk density) such as paper, bark, leafy greens, and styrofoam.
An additional obstacle to feeding occurs when the product goes through a washing step prior to milling, creating surface tension.
Corenco replaced random gravity feeding with precise auger feeding, overcoming the second set of obstacles by "force feeding". Added benefits include a metered feed into the mill, which improves milling efficiency by limiting surging, protecting against overload, and thus providing a more modular, stand alone piece of equipment.
M15D Specifications
- 50HP 208/230/460V Washdown Duty Main Motor
- Maximum in-feed dimensions of 6 x 12 x 12 inches
- Handles difficult-to-convey materials such as leafy greens
- All materials of construction T304SS with Food Grade #180 grit finish
- Includes integral feed unit which can be easily accessed for cleaning
- Guaranteed sizing: all material must pass through perforated screen
- Simple direct-coupled design
- Durable 1-piece screen can be removed and replaced in less than 5 minutes
- Easily reduces difficult to grind material

Dr. Sam Foote, the whistleblower who brought the U.S.
Veteran Affairs (VA) scandal to light in 2014, will be awarded the ACFE
Sentinel Award at the 28th
Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference
in Nashville, June 18-23. Foote will join more than 3,000 anti-fraud
professionals at the event, and will join the ranks of previous Sentinel Award winners
including Olympus whistleblower Michael Woodford and Pamela Davis, who helped
expose corruption under former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich.
Foote worked as a physician in the Phoenix VA Health Care
System for nearly 24 years before he began noticing questionable procedures.
Although he saw overworked staff and patients waiting months to be seen, he
noticed administrators at the hospitals were receiving bonuses for slashing
wait times. After investigating, he discovered that many administrators were
altering official wait time records, and directing their subordinates to do the
Foote brought his concerns to the attention of the VA
Office of Inspector General, but received no response. He retired in December
2013 and decided to write letters to government representatives and go to the
media with his story in hopes of forcing the VA's hand. His diligence in
exposing the story led to a full congressional investigation and the
resignation of VA Secretary Eric Shinseki. It is currently estimated that "there
could be as many as 40 veterans whose deaths could be related to delays in care,"
per U.S. Representative Jeff Miller (R-Fla.)
The conference is the world's largest gathering of fraud
fighters and will feature more than 70 breakout sessions presented by top
experts in the anti-fraud field. Sessions will cover topics from case studies
of fraud in NASA to battling ransomware and attacks from the Dark Web.

- Publishing on your own
- Traditional publishing through a company (typically via a literary agent)
- Indie publishing can refer to either publishing through a small independent company, or publishing on your own, through founding your own independent company
- Self-publishing typically refer to authors printing their own work without the skills or resources to do so. If a "self-published" book looks professional, is well written and edited, it is considered indie
- Vanity presses will take your money to "self-publish", meaning your book will still look home made and you will be a few thousand dollars poorer
A few publishers will consider writers with no agents, but the typical submission route sees an agent pitching your work to publishers
Who are agents?
Agents are experts in the book business. They consider hundreds of books a day, choose a few promising clients a year and try to pitch their work to publishers. If you did get an agent he is your best bookish friend!
Agents are experts who believe in your book. Treat them fairly and don't expect them to be your biatch.
Their job is pitching to publishers, not advertise your book nor edit nor listen to you whine. Know what to expect.
What do agents do?
They select authors as clients and try to get them good deals with publishers. They are paid when the writer is paid. Never give money to anyone to read your work! A serious agent would never ask for money.
What don't agents do? They don't advertise your book, they don't edit
How do I get an agent?
To get an agent you have to write a query letter (future post on how to do that). In fact, on average, you have to write about 100 queries to find an agent and that is only if your book is prime stuff. An alternative is to take part in "pitching competitions" like PitMad on twitter or attending a writers' pitch conference.
How do I select which agent is right for me?
Don't flood all the literary agents of the world at once. Choose two or three who published books you liked and are similar to yours. If you can't think of any you should probably be spending more time reading before you consider publishing. Check AgentQuery to find agents open to submissions in your genre. Do some research on them, make sure they are a good fit and be ready for rejection.
How do I deal with rejection?
Why go traditional?
Publishers and agents have a ton of experience.They will guarantee that your book is the best it can be. Also they can offer you the best distribution at no cost (out of pocket at least). There will be no typos, the cover and format will be impeccable, they will distribute your book in bookstores countrywide and it will have the best title ever. So, if you have the time and will to pursue this route, go for it!
What are the disadvantages of a publisher?
Spending a year writing query letters and being rejected. Spending another year to find a publisher and close to another year to see the book in stores. Losing some of the creative freedom (they'll decide your cover, title, illustrations, although of course you do have a saying in it!). Losing part of your royalties (which are already quite low) to pay the agent and the publisher.
A typical publishing deal gives the author 15% of the royalties (NOT 15% of the retail cost!)
For example…your book sells for $15. Printing and other costs are $6. Book stores get a 55% discount (they need to make money too!). Bookstores get it for $6.75. If printing costs $5, per book you make 15% ($6.75-$5)= 26 cents
What are the advantages of independent publishing?
Your revenue per book will be much higher! Yes, amazon takes a cut, but you still make much more then 15% per book. You have complete freedom over your book. Your book can be published in a jiffy. With print on demand you don't have to prepay paper copies on your books.
What are the disadvantages of independent publishing?
You have to learn A LOT and do even more. You are responsible for your book to be the best it can be, that's hard without experience! But it's doable, and once you learn you can help others :) I'll be honest with you, most of the self published books out there are terrible. Still some of my favorites authors are self (independently) published. Do your research, be thorough, be professional!
The hard facts:It takes on average about a year to find an agent. Only 5% of authors with an agent get a book deal. A pretty good book deal is a $1,000 advance and 15% on every book sold after that. First time authors, on average, sell 400 books and will have to pay back the publisher for unsold books over their advance, let's say return $200 of the original grand. Wanna cry? Go right ahead.
Also, publishers, typically, have one or two huge book releases per year. They will not put all their advertising money on little unknown you, they will invest it where they have a safer return, let's say…Stephen King.
My advice
Indie-publish your first few books. Learn the trade. If you are selling a decent number of books (more than 400 per title) within a short time that will be a great card to play to seduce an agent.
Regardless of the route you choose, publishing it's going to be a ton of work (if you actually want to sell some books). Roll up your sleeves and happy publishing ^_^

Continuing with the Austin skyscraper theme, here's the Austonian, among others, during the peak blue hour. The Austonian, an all residential tower, is currently the tallest building in Austin and also the tallest all residential building west of the Mississippi river. It will remain the tallest until The Independent, edges out the tallest title, when finished sometime in the future.
I shot this a week and half ago, with the Olympus PEN-F and the 12-40mm f2.8 pro lens, with an extremely slow shutter speed of 1/1.3 per second, to minimize the ISO. There is a method to my madness with I will explain, most likely tomorrow. It's part of an experiment that I'm doing, which will all become clear.
The Olympus in body image stabilization enables me to shoot with extremely slow shutter speeds. Ultimately, to improve the image quality. Image stabilization works much like a tripod, where it offsets the shake induced by handholding at slow shutter speeds but does nothing to slow down the action. It works well in this case, because the scene is not moving. It's not as effective in action scenes, unless you purposely want to induce motion blur.

The clutch nut took me 5 minutes to temove with impact driller so it was very tight, just for comparison the front sprocket nut with same driller took me 5 seconds to remove.motoyoyo wrote: ↑Thu Sep 20, 2018 1:52 amElvis, is it possible that the clutch basket nut had become loose? Just a thought, but this could have led to the gear becoming partially disengaged causing a massive side load on it as it got jammed by the driven gear on the oil pump. That certainly could have snapped the gear in half. Have you checked the oil pump to make sure it rotates freely? Usually not a lot of torque required to spin an oil pump up to pressure. I'm just trying to see if there may have been another cause for the gear to have experienced that much load to break it in half.
BTW, I agree with jhalfhide that the SMT can be just as spirited a ride as the Superdukes. I own both an SMT and an SDR and the SMT can definitely be ridden just as fast or faster in some situations. Love them both.
The pump is rotating freely with out the pump cover and have small friction with the new cover but still can turn with my fingers, during turning i can hear suction noise made with the leftovers of oil.
I can not find any damage that was caused not from the oil pump sprocket but it is also a question how well the axel of the clutch basket is balanced but this i can not test

When it comes to a family's roles within the home, the "S" word (submission) can generate controversy. To modern ears, God's standards can seem out-of-date and even distasteful to some. But I am suggesting that the quickest way to fulfillment for a married woman is to discover the freedom of her role as properly understood in Scripture. So let's jump in and unpack this role and see how it is meant to correspond to a husband's loving leadership.
Stop imagining a better home life and start building it. Whether you're single and just surveying the landscape, married and mediating the man cave versus the she shed, or rebuilding your home (and heart) after significant loss, God has a blueprint for you. No home is beyond repair, so join Skip Heitzig and Nate Heitzig for Smart Home and start building the home of your future today.

1st XV vs Boroughmuir: Match Report
It's fitting that the match report on Saturday's game that appeared in Monday's 'News' was illustrated with a photo of Mike Hanning tackling our old mate Marsh. For, if our well deserved victory at Meggetland was down to one thing, it was our defence.
On a nice day for ducks, we tackled like tigers, snuffing out the threat posed by the dangerous 'Muir backline and making life miserable for their half backs. I wasn't at the Ball on Saturday evening, but will wager that all the 1st XV players in attendance were moving a little gingerly on the dancefloor – they really had put their bodies on the line for the club that afternoon.
It wasn't just our defence that made the difference, though. Another key element in our victory was our handling, which was excellent despite the bloody awful conditions. Mike Hanning didn't drop anything all day, while the chain of supply from Fraser to Cash to the backline was almost as reliable.
Our decision making was also excellent. While some of Mike's up and unders were a bit wayward, and Cash kicked the ball straight out on the full a couple of times, they still combined to ensure that we played the game, for the most part, in the right areas of the pitch. Just as 'Muir threatened to build up a head of steam, we would nick the ball off them – take a collective bow, Sangy, Ben and Ruaridh – and launch it back down the pitch.
The final factor in our victory – apart from the sheer determination shown by the players to avenge that last gasp defeat back at Inverleith in August – was the solidity of our scrum. When 'Muir swapped props fifteen minutes into the second half, a cry of 'That's one down, Willie!' went up from our technical area, and you couldn't really argue with that.
Our penalty try, awarded by Kiwi ref James McPhail early in the second half, came when a 'Muir player hacked the ball away as our pack were about to march over the line for the pushover, while we has previously stood firm on a couple of occasions when the 'Muir forwards began advancing towards our own line via rolling mauls. Our lineout may have faltered a few times on Saturday, but the scrum was magnificent throughout.
We had enjoyed much the better of the opening period in the game, Ben nearly scoring at the clubhouse corner early on after he hacked the ball towards the 'Muir line (above), while Mike Hanning kept 'Muir on the back foot via his up and unders. Big Jon Hamblin also came close to scoring but knocked on in a ruck close to the try line.
Our first points came on 15 minutes when Cash landed a penalty from just outside the 22. He repeated the feat 6 minutes thereafter after 'Muir were penalised for a high hit on Neil Bowie.
'Muir mounted their first meaningful attack of the half after 25 minutes, a lineout on the stand side and a neat chip and chase by Coxy leading to a passage of play where only a fine tackle by Fraser Strachan prevented a try by winger Jordan Webster. The home side were, however, awarded a penalty in front of the posts shortly thereafter, Bruce Reekie knocking the ball over to make the score 6-3 in our favour.
Struan hirpled off after 35 minutes, Seb taking his place alongside Dave Hampton in the midfield.
We began the second half well, with Sangy being held up over the line after good work by Ziggy and Fraser. We then got our reward via the aforementioned penalty try, Cash converting to make the score 13-3.
We made further changes after the try, Jon and Nick Hart being replaced by MoMo and Adam Howie.
'Muir started to turn the screw as the half went on, spinning the ball wide and benefitting from a succession of penalties. Their only try of the game came after we had been camped in our 22 for what seemed like ten minutes, replacement Johnny Adams sliding over after taking a quick tap penalty before we had a chance to set our defence once again. The conversion from Reekie made the score 13-10, with maybe 5 minutes left on the clock.
'Muir continued to press for the rest of the game, our one significant moment of respite coming when Cash had an unsuccessful pop at goal from the edge of his range. The game had "Last minute penalty to earn ' Muir the draw" written all over it, but our players maintained their discipline and we hung on for a fine win.
I know Gav likes to single particularly deserving players out for special praise at the end of his match reports, so I am going to doff my virtual cap to young Ruaridh Stewart, who put in a power of work at the breakdown, spoiling 'Muir ball so often that the home half backs must still be cursing him. See above for details!
Sangy also deserves a special mention for being so offside (yet still unpenalised) towards the end of the game that the ref must have thought he was returning from the 2s game on the bottom pitch at Meggetland …
Must finish by mentioning the gracious way in which our former players accepted the defeat – spoke to Joni, Marsh and the spectating Roddy Mackenzie after the game, and all were a credit to their new club. Rugby's good like that!

text: LockwoodGrace #1 Posted November 10, 2018 NCL have removed the water slide from the Jewel during the recent 2018 dry dock refurb to make way for a more relaxing atmosphere by the pool. But what about the families that booked knowing their kids would enjoy the slide. Have read posts on cruise critic about other NCL ships losing the slide during a refurb and some saying that the yellow slide wasn't the best and outdated. If this was the case, why not upgrade the slide instead of taking it away! Or create a small water park. As an adult I enjoy going on the slides. Have been on a cruise without a slide and it's just not as enjoyable for the young ones as well. Very disappointed! https://www.ncl.com/au/en/travel-blog/norwegian-jewel-dry-dock-2018-ship-renovation-details 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How To Pick Up Canadian Radio Stations On A Japanese Car
Good morning y'all, it's Gatlin from Carphonix, and I still hate the snow. This video was from the middle of March and I'm glad the weather's better now.
Anyway I wanted to show ya something cool today to do with car radios. We're going to head upstairs today, which ya don't get to see too often so watch carefully! I'll show you some speaker adapter plugs and tell you why they're so important for your install. Newbies don't think of this and it can cause a lot of problems especially if you want to sell your car later on. You can save yourself a boatload of money and time knowing this stuff!
Then I'll show you how to install an "FM Transmitter Thing".
What's that? Well when you import a Japanese car, I guess their radio stations work differently than they do here, so you can't pick up Canadian radio stations. The FM Transmitter Thing lets you get Canadian signals in a Japanese radio.
Check out this video to see how it works:
Contact Carphonix Car Audio
Are you importing a Japanese car and want to be able to use the radio? Or do you want any other car electronics work done? Then give us a shout!
Here's how to get in touch with us:

Global Trust Depository is Taking New Clients for Safekeeping Receipts
Newport Beach, CA, April 23, 2014 --(
)-- Global Trust Depository has just announced that the service is now taking new clients for safekeeping receipts. Global Trust Depository can accept almost any kind of valuable assets for safekeeping purposes. The service contracts out with local bank vaults for storage facilities and can issue a safekeeping receipt for that asset. Safekeeping receipts can be used by the asset owner as proof of ownership and to transfer the title of the asset.
Safekeeping Receipts can be used for: gold mines, coal mines, copper mines, gemstones (rough or cut), real estate, timber land, precious metals, jewelry, heirlooms and more Safekeeping Receipts can be verified by private parties as well as banking institutions, but only with prior written consent from the asset owner. Safekeeping fees are based on the value of the asset, physical size of the asset, and the term of services.
Global Trust Depository was established in 1979. The company was formed to fill a void in the financial world concerning third party holders of assets. European banking institutions were always requesting Safekeeping Receipts from asset owners in the United States to prove ownership, but were unsuccessful in obtaining them from United States banking institutions.
In over 34 years that Global Trust Depository has been in business, they have never lost a single asset for any reason. In those 34 years there has never been a claim filed in civil or criminal court against the company. This is of public record and can be verified through a public records search. Other services that Global Trust Depository offers have developed over the years and now include more services including a broad spectrum of trust services for international clients.
Global Trust Depository is currently taking new clients for safekeeping receipts. Contact the company to learn more about their services and to schedule an appointment.

Potomac Chief Judge Peter B. Krauser and the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland on Dec. 7, 2012 rejected Montgomery County's motion that would have allowed moving forward with development of soccer fields on Brickyard Road.
A Montgomery County Circuit Court judge is scheduled to hear arguments on Feb. 8, 2013 to determine whether the school board lease of the land to the county is legal.
An August Montgomery County Circuit Court ruling suspended county plans to force organic farmer Nick Maravell off 20 acres on Brickyard Road. Maravell has leased the property from Montgomery County Public Schools for more than 30 years.
"By this motion, the county attempts to have this Court determine the merits of the Petition for Judicial Review before it is heard by the Circuit Court," according to Brian E. Barkley, attorney for Brickyard Coalition, which challenged the legality of the Board of Education's lease of the land to the county to develop soccer fields.
"The fact that a final decision may only be a little over two months away should be sufficient reason to allow the stay to remain in place," Barkley wrote.
Citing a significant need for ballfields in the downcounty, County Executive Ike Leggett executed plans to turn the Brickyard Road farm site to the county so it could lease the land to MSI for development into soccer fields.
Attorneys for the county called the stay imposed last August an injunction and asked the appeals court to overrule it.
"The trial court's order does not merely stay State Board's decision under review, it forbids the County from taking action under its lease with the Local Board. Compounding the error, the trial court issued the injunction based upon a ground that could not be before it (a claim under the Open Meetings Act)," according to County Attorney Marc P. Hansen.
MARAVELL PRODUCES heirloom GMO-free corn and soybean seed on the farm. More recently, his daughter, Sophia Maravell, has run the Brickyard Educational Farm on the site as well, teaching local school children about farming.
In March 2011, Maravell, neighbors and civic organizations in Potomac learned that Leggett had decided to take control of the 20-acres to turn it over to a private organization for development into soccer fields.
The Board of Education voted with only a few days notice to lease the property to the county for that purpose.
Local food advocates, neighbors and civic associations have expressed outrage that there was no public process for the decision. They have asked to turn back the decision and begin a transparent process with public input and discussion.
County council members have also called on the county executive and school board to reconsider plans to turn the farm into soccer fields.
"The violations of the Open Meetings Act resulted in a lack of transparency about the decision-making process. It is the public policy of the State of Maryland to have open meetings since an open government is essential to the maintenance of an open society," according to Barkley, representing the Brickyard Coalition.
But according to the county, the organic farmer has planted the bad seeds during this ongoing controversy.
The county extended Maravell's lease during the legal challenges, county attorneys said.
"It is apparent … that the Appellees have acted in bad faith. There is no substantial justification for their conduct or for their claims against the county. The county acted in good faith by entering into a License Agreement and a settlement agreement with Appellees Maravell and Cowles and adhering to both. … It is fair to assume that Appellees never had any intention of abiding by the agreements. Courts should not abide such conduct," according to County Attorney Marc P. Hansen.

Highland Motor Heritage Centre
The Highland Motor Heritage Centre was located at Bankfoot in Perthshire.
There is no remaining evidence for the existence of this venture in the area, other than some road signs that were noticed in 2000. The centre could not be found then, although there were some suitable buildings in the general area, which appeared to be a recently opened garden centre.
From information received, we understand that the museum was located in the building which now (as of 2012) houses the roadside caf� at the junction for Bankfoot, on the A9.
No online information has ever been found regarding the centre, other than promotional sites aimed at attracting tourists to the general area and its surroundings. These all contain the same basic block of text, pasted into the body of their content:
Highland Motor Heritage Centre
Classic and vintage cars, costumes and accessories displayed in authentic period settings. Driving game, free slot-car racing and motor heritage videos.
Highland Motor Heritage Centre, Bankfoot, Perthshire, Scotland, PH1 4EB.
Any further information that may be added would be more than welcome, thank you.
