| There are now nine teams without a win after the first two weeks of games.
The New York Giants , Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans are all favored, as well, despite being 0-2. There has been a dearth of big plays, and an abundance of breakdowns on the offensive line.
Who is the Ravens’ Leader? The rookie receiver still has quite a bit of conditioning to do, but could be ready to help the Ravens before too long. Ray Lewis is retired, Haloti Ngata is in Detroit, and Terrell Suggs is out with an Achilles’ injury. He’s been a tremendous bargain over the first two weeks, scoring at least 15 FDPs in each game.
Since the National Football League expanded to its current 12-team playoff format in 1990, 205 squads have started the season 0-2. The biggest difference I see with the Bengals this year is the fact that Andy Dalton is utilizing a second target he’s very confident with in tight end Tyler Eifert. Which means basically nothing two weeks into the season.
The Colts have been outscored by 26 points in their two losses, but they are still favorites on Sunday. This team looks more like a contender for the #1 pick in next year’s draft, in what should be a long, nightmarish season in the Windy City. It pays to play in a less-than-stellar division.
PATRIOTS (-13¹/₂) over Jaguars: Jacksonville isn’t bad, but the final margin here will be determined by what kind of mood Bill Belichick and Tom Brady are in. The numbers won’t be so impressive every week but QB Derek Carr and WRs Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree should make the Raiders far more competitive than they were last season. Is Andrew Luck going to be able to turn things around? Drew Brees (shoulder) didn’t throw on Wednesday but is planning on playing.
Here is a list of the National Football League betting odds and lines for Week 3 of the 2015 season. The Colts did it last season, and the Carolina Panthers the season before that.
The Eagles have committed five turnovers in their first two games. Heading into Week 3, the tides have turned.
It’s also looking good in that regard for Indianapolis cornerback Vontae Davis, who suffered a concussion in Monday night’s loss to the Jets. He has all the potential in the world, but if he’s going to get the Colts back on track, the former number 1 pick is going to have to take care of the ball. Their division already includes a couple of 2-0 teams, one of which is New Orleans’ next rival. But records are made to be broken, and you’re only as good as your last win – which in the Eagles case came in the preseason or last December. They played “bend but don’t break defense” for most of the game, but broke early in the fourth when Manning and Beckham burned Bashaud Breeland. The way he was gloating over his first victory was cringe-worthy because I feel his success was more of an indictment against the Saints than a tribute to the Buccaneers. I expected for Stafford to come out and finally live up to his potential. The Cowboys’ defense is good enough to keep them in games, though.
Maybe, just maybe Rex Ryan and the Bills should play the quiet game the next time they’re preparing to face the Patriots . I don’t think the Buffalo train is dead yet – their defense will pick up the intensity against. With Kam Chancellor’s contract dispute looming over the team, the Seahawks haven’t looked like themselves, even if their Week 1 loss to the Rams was full of unlucky circumstances.
Bears (+14¹/₂) over SEAHAWKS: Not a write off of the 0-2 Seahawks , but this is an terrible lot of points to give team with a runner who averages 5.2 yards per carry like Matt Forte does. You don’t know the next time you’ll be able to say that. With a glimpse of the Peyton of old last week, I think the Lions are in trouble. He still has some life in his arm, but Gary Kubiak can’t keep putting Manning under center and letting him take hit after hit. The Giants , Bears, Eagles , Lions, and Saints are 0-2. The Lions still have talent offensively, but things haven’t been clicking on either side of the ball for them. Arizona returns home with a 2-0 record after embarrassing the Bears on Sunday and gets a 49ers defense that was obliterated by the Steelers last week. That pretty much ends the familiarity. They have yet to play at home, where Joe Flacco is 13-1 straight up in September games. But they go into St. Louis to play a Rams team that can put up points if Nick Foles plays well. I hope you all enjoyed this insane football weekend, I know I sure did.
The pre-game show is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m., right after the KXLH newscast.
Which of the eight NFL teams with an 0-2 record can still make the playoffs? | SPORTS |

| Ristolainen is on pace to become the Sabres top defenseman for years to come. Rasmus Ristolainen
Position: Defense
Age: 20
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 219 lbs.
2014-15 team: Buffalo
Acquired: Drafted in the 1st round (8th overall) in the 2013 draft
Last year's ranking: 4
Rasmus Ristolainen played his first full season in Buffalo this year, and he already looks like an untradeable player. At just 20-years-old he's been thrown into some really tough positions and done rather well. The Sabres plan for the future relies heavily on Ristolainen becoming the team's top defenseman.
In 2013-14 Ristolainen showed fans promise, playing professionally right after getting drafted. He's Sabres stint was only 34 games, but impressive showings in Rochester and at the World Juniors boosted his standing. He scored the golden goal in the championship game for Finland, and was named to the tournament's All-Star team.
This season Ristolainen averaged 20 minutes a game this season, leading to some 2014-15 Sabres numbers like a -32 +/-. However, he often was in great position and led all defensemen in scoring. Matthew Coller detaiiled how impressive his play was, calling him an untouchable asset. Ristolainen isn't only an offensive defenseman. He is great in his own end, and even has a physical side.
He's got the size and talent that would allow him to become a top name defenseman in the NHL. What will be interesting to see is if he can up his point totals as he goes along. His eight goals this season shows his potential as an offensive defenseman, but he probably would like to up his assist numbers. He'll likely be on the top defensive pair this season, so he'll continue to have plenty of ice time to score.

| As many mums know, lots of children reach a stage where they enjoy collecting things. Sometimes they start building a collection of cards, stickers or toys. And occasionally they decide they enjoy collecting random things, even if it’s just stones. Collecting things can be a great way of developing different skills. They learn how to be responsible for their stuff, organisation, maths, and more. If you think your kidlets might like to start a new collection, there are so many things they can collect. Some of them are free, while others may require them to start managing money. Here are some ideas for what they could collect. Rocks and Other Pieces of Nature A lot of children will start off by collecting things they find when they’re playing. To you, it might look like an ordinary pile of rocks, but it’s likely to mean much more to them. Apart from teaching them lots of skills, it helps them to use their imagination and value the things they find. Anything they pick up outside won’t cost any money. However, there is one thing to consider. Many people think it’s wrong to take anything from nature, even if it’s a rock or a leaf. You may think that it’s just one thing. But if everyone takes “just one”, these materials could disappear. If you’re worried about taking things from nature, you could encourage taking a photo, drawing a picture or making a note of each find. Toys and Models Children have collected the latest toys and display models for a long time. From Dinky cars to china dolls, there’s always something that appeals to kids. If your child starts collecting toys, they can wait until they get a gift from friends and family. But it’s also a great way to encourage them to earn and save towards their next item. They can look at the Eddie Stobart shop, for example, choose what they want to buy next and create a budget. They’ll be able to set up a schedule and know when they’re going to have enough money. Items on a Theme Some children don’t pick one item to collect, but rather enjoy collecting on a theme. It might mean that their collection doesn’t have any monetary value, but it’s still a fun thing to do. For example, if their favourite animal is the penguin, they might collect everything they can find with a penguin on it. It’s a great way to encourage a passion, plus it makes buying gifts incredibly easy. Stamps, Coins, Cards or Stickers The classic things to collect are often the best. Collecting stamps might have fallen out of fashion a bit. But it’s still fun to build other collections. Things like coins, cards and stickers are easily put away in an album. So their collection won’t have to take up half of their bedroom. It’s fun to do even a short-term collection, such as stickers for the football World Cup. They get to socialise with others who are doing it, and feel the satisfaction of completing their book. Collecting can be a great hobby for all types of children. It can help them come out of their shell or learn to sit still and concentrate. What do yout little ones like to collect?

You need remote controlled coffee in the morning
The kids are back to school and the wage-slaves are finally back to work, leaving the world blissfully quieter for retirees However, the silly season was extended over at the torygraph, who bring us the amazingly useless invention of… This Smarter iKettle allows you to boil it remotely from your bedroom when you wake up, or when you’re on your way home from work. It will also tell you when your hot water is ready to pour, remind you to refill, and tell you when the kettle is empty. the iKettle. Much like the Internet Connected fridge and the smartwatch, at £80 this is a solution in search of a problem. One which has had perfectly reasonable solutions ever since the 1960s, as the Telegraph very well knows. Indeed a search for the device shows it exercises the minds of our retired colonels-pining-for-the-glory-days-of-Empire an awful lot. Perhaps they had a crush on the woman in the ads back in the day I like the enterprise of the British search of a morning cup of tea – Mostly it was bought by a middle-aged, middle-income workforce who needed help getting out of their suburban beds. Presumably they were sore that that the price of servants was so high in the 1970s… The Teasmade had some positively lethal forerunners in the form of a methylated spirit burner lit by a match struck by the clockwork. What on earth could go wrong, eh – on a good day you rise to the pong of meths and stewed tea, on a bad day you get woken up by the smell of your house burning down. What’s not to like? The trouble with the iKettle is that apart from a few people who drink hot though probably not boiling water as is, what you want to do with your boiled water is use it for something else, be that making beverages or boiling some spuds so you may as well go over there and press the damn button, and you tell whether the kettle has water in it by sloshing it about or listening to the noise. There is no need for the remote control at all. Indeed, if you want to spend money on simplifying your boiling water experience a Quooker tap is the way to go, you cut out all that filling the kettle first malarkey. Tea? In the morning? What is this risible concept anyway? The ermine household has no truck with the idea of tea, pretty much until 4pm. It’s coffee that is needed bwefore the sun rises above the yardarm. Way back in working days I used a timer connected to a coffee machine in a gonzo version of the Teasmade and it served me well for years – far better to rise gradually to the smell of coffee that to some ghastly buzz or the latest Autotune hit. Obviously there’s no point in having an alarm as a retiree, so I have much sympathy with the concept of remote control – as long as it does the full job. So out with the timeswitch and in with the JS designs remote control mains socket. I have tried numerous Chinese cheapie remote switches, but they are all ghastly – no frequency control so if they work in summer they don’t in winter. What you really don’t need is one with a single switch that toggles state, because if the coffee is not in the same room you can’t get feedback on which state is ON. Separate on and off buttons, please. JS uses a CR2032 cell, it’s easier for the Chinese crap alternatives to use one of those infernal 12V lighter batteries that has 10 LR44 coin cells in them, which makes running costs dear. I’m of the view that for something you get to use frequently it’s worth paying more to get something without rattiness, and lightwaveRF took all the Chinese rattiness 1… Anyway, the remote controlled mains socket and a lo-tech manual filter coffee machine that will power up if left switched on when the mains appears solves the problem the iKettle fails dismally – and you don’t have to putz about with a smartphone to launch coffee either. There’s a certain fin-de-siecle decadence of something so complicatedly futile being exhibited at the IFA tradeshow as part of the leading edge. At least you could eat a chocolate teapot, and I have more admiration of the colonial entrepreneurs of over a century ago with their Heath-Robinson meths burners and matches. Let’s hear it from Stephen Covey and his Seven Habits of Successful People Begin with the end in mind You want a hot beverage at the end, not an excuse to piss about with a smartphone. 2. If we nailed this in 1902 we can keep to Covey’s maxim a century later. Notes: investigation with a frequency counter of why the Chinese sockets would work some of the time away showed they used a tuned circuit for frequency control of the TX, and were susceptible to temperature and hand capacity ↩ While on the subject of smartphone driven hardware, experience has shown me that software has a much shorter mean-time-to-obsolescence that hardware. Any gizmo that needs an app to make it work will have the service life of a bluebottle, as Apple’s planned obsolescence orphans the app with an iOS upgrade. ↩ | OTHERS |

| Fellow Americans, This week, a scourge has landed on our shores. No, not Chinese president Xi Jinping. Not British model/actress Cara Delevigne. I’m talking about Jorge Mario Bergoglio, a.k.a. Pope Francis. And while his trip to the States is winding down, the Pope’s reign of terror will continue unless we do something about it. Even though I’m a “devout Catholic,” I’ve been speaking out against this dope all week. He cannot be trusted. Why am I anti-Pope? This Argentinian menace is a staunch believer in climate change, and he thinks we should do something about it … at the expense of profits and oil-sector jobs. Hey Pope, let’s leave the science to the scientists … the stupid scientists. And how can we trust a grown man who dresses like he does, wearing baggy clothes and never taking his hat off. It’s extremely disrespectful. Even worse, he’s a friend of the gays. I mean, sort of. For a Pope he is. You get what I’m saying. If he had his way, the world would be one giant Scandinavia. Oh and by the way, he has a girl’s name, even though he’s a boy. Francis. What message does that send to our children. He’s met with Vladimir Putin, Fidel Castro, even Barack Hussein Obama. Does this Pope even believe in God? Doubtful. He’s never once publicly stated that he’s not a Muslim. What’s he hiding? In Spanish they call him El Papa, but La Papa means potato. That’s just too close for comfort. Sure, he’s a charismatic leader who draws huge crowds. But doesn’t that sound a bit familiar? Nope, not him. Even worse: That’s right: Bernie Sanders. The resemblance is uncanny. We Vati-can’t allow him to force his commie agenda down our throats. Join me in saying nope to the Pope. Your pal,
Marco Rubio | POLITICS |

| Service providers go to court to appeal changes in state health benefits limiting out-of-network reimbursements to $35
New Jersey chiropractors feel singled out by an upcoming change in the main health plan for public workers — and they’ve gone to court to appeal it.
Under a revision to the State Health Benefits Program, chiropractors who are outside of a worker’s insurance network would be limited to payments of $35 per visit or 75 percent of the in-network payment — whichever is less. The State Health Benefits Program’s Plan Design Committee approved the change in July.
Arguing that no similar healthcare services were singled out for payment limits — although acupuncturists are being held to $60 a visit — the Association of New Jersey Chiropractors announced that it would appeal the change in state courts.
The case pits a healthcare profession that has had to lobby to be treated equally with other fields against a state body that’s looking to trim costs across a wide range of benefits. But while state officials have put the change — which is estimated to save $2 million annually — in the context of a larger effort to slow the growth of health spending, that doesn’t mollify those chiropractors who’ve chosen to remain out-of-network.
The debate is occurring against the backdrop of a broader discussion of out-of-network costs. Legislators have proposed a bill that aims to limit out-of-network costs.
Doctor of chiropractic Steven Clarke, who’s pursuing the appeal along with the ANJC, said that while there are always discussions among insurers about changes that would contain the cost of chiropractic benefits, he was not expecting such a major move. Until now, the state health plan didn’t specify a limit on out-of-network chiropractic payments, which are generally based on a chiropractor’s usual and customary charges.
“We had no idea what they were doing, to this extent,” Clarke said of the state action.
The design committee resolution making the change also includes a requirement that state plan’s insurers (currently Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey and Aetna) raise their in-network rates in order to attract more chiropractors and acupuncturists to their networks. The $35 rate would only apply to providers who remain out of network.
Their success in doing so may determine whether the state plan takes a similar cost-cutting approach to other out-of-network healthcare services in the future, according to the resolution.
Clarke, whose practice is in Nutley, is the chairman of the legislative committee for the ANJC. The association’s members include about 1,900 of state’s 2,300 licensed chiropractors.
“We don’t know why they took this action; of course they’re going to put it under” the banner of cost containment, Clarke said.
But Clarke said the savings would amount to roughly 12 cents per month for each state plan member.
Association lawyer Jeffrey Randolph said that chiropractors are being unfairly penalized, particularly given that physical therapists have not had the same state out-of-network restrictions applied to them. He added that physical therapy costs frequently exceed those for chiropractic services.
State Department of Treasury spokesman Christopher Santarelli defended the change, noting that the state would continue to cover chiropractic services. He added that the new limits were part of a broader series of plan design changes aimed at saving $100 million in costs.
On the same day that it approved the change to chiropractic and acupuncture, the plan design committee also approved five other changes designed to lower health costs. First, they adopted resolutions that restricted use of certain compound drugs (medications that are mixed or altered at specialized pharmacies). Second, they required that a less-expensive Hepatitis C drug be tried before using more costly medications. Third, they created a tiered health plan . Fourth, they approved a patient-centered medical home pilot . Finally, they gave the nod to a patient-centered medical home for Rutgers University employees.
“We were gratified with the design committee’s July 6 actions that focused on improving health outcomes and finding savings for the health benefits program,” Santarelli said.Clarke countered that chiropractors save insurers and patients money by treating problems before they develop into more costly health issues. He noted a study of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee patients that found 40 percent cost savings when patients went to chiropractors for lower back pain compared with those who went to medical doctors.
“This is something we’re just totally perplexed by,” he said. “How did they come up with this $35 per visit?”
Clarke said he’s not sure if the new out-of-network maximum payment would apply only to chiropractic examinations, or would it also include taking x-rays and other services that chiropractors frequently perform.
“It is so unclear and so left dangling out there,” he said.
Clarke expressed a concern for patients who may face higher out-of-pocket costs if they want to keep their out-of-network chiropractor.
“They’re getting less and they weren’t even told” about the change before the July meeting, Clarke said.
As an example of how the payments currently work, an out-of-network chiropractor that charges $90 for a visit could expect to receive 80 percent ($72) from the insurer, and $18 from a patient if the chiropractor doesn’t waive the coinsurance fee. Under the new plan, the same chiropractor would receive $35 from the state and could seek as much as $55 in out-of-pocket costs from a patient to offset the amount if the chiropractor charged the same amount.
Clarke said he provides services to police officers from at least 30 towns.
“These (officers) are the fabric of our state that hold us together here, and they’re being asked to pay more and more,” he said.
Clarke noted that plan design committee members spent more time discussing potential cuts to physical therapy than they did on chiropractic services, according to his review of committee meeting minutes.
“We’re not saying they should be reduced — people need that care,” Clarke said of physical therapy. “But the state worker is getting screwed.”
Clarke said he took his own practice out of insurance networks roughly seven years ago because he wanted to focus only on the needs of his patients, and not be “beholden” to insurance company rules. The state plan limits the chiropractic benefit to 30 visits per year.
“I’m certainly going to do what’s legal and proper, but I’m beholden (only) to my patients,” he said.
Clarke also questioned how he could pay his staff when he’s being paid a rate similar to that of the 1970s.
“The bottom line: They took it out on the chiropractic profession and our patients and they didn’t do it to anybody else,” he said.

| The City of Rhome approved a proposed budget and tax rate for fiscal year 2015-2016 Tuesday night and will adopt the budget and tax rate at the next city council meeting.
The proposed budget predicts an income of $2,950,157.62 and expenses of $2,917,249.75 for the next fiscal year. The proposed budget would net $32,907.87. The proposed tax rate will remain the same as the previous year’s at 58.33 cents per $100 valuation.
Mayor Michelle Pittman and council members looked over the budget line by line. The largest recommended change was to the city’s street repair budget, set at $25,000 for fiscal year 2014-2015. Councilman Tim Robison suggested putting $250,000 in the street repair budget for 2015-2016.
“That’s going to be a huge difference to make that up, and there’s not going to be enough to make that up,” Pittman said.
To balance the budget, the council and mayor changed the $250,000 to $150,000 for street repairs.
Another large change to the budget was $100,000 set aside for the purchase of new police cars.
“Y’all need at least two (new cars), right now, yesterday,” councilman Ronnie Moore said to Police Chief Brandon Davis.
The Rhome Volunteer Fire Department has discussed becoming independent of the city, and if it does so by Oct. 1, its $48,000 in funding will be returned to the city coffers.
Raises for city employees based on merit and increase cost of living may be added to the budget at a later date.
The next city council meeting is 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 10, at Rhome City Hall, 105 W First St. | POLITICS |

Well, if I thought it was a tad cold yesterday, when I stepped out on the balcony, I was in for a rude awakening today! It’s a couple of degrees cooler. Thankfully, there’s little or no breeze to speak of, and the air is almost still.
There was a light mist around 5 am, which has lifted and, they say, we’re in for more sunshine this afternoon. But, again, like yesterday, much cooler than even just a week ago. Ah, well, time to break out the jeans and sweaters. And maybe, it’s time for the sneakers. | OTHERS |

| I heard one analyst say that the language being used by the EU leaders meeting in Brussels on Wednesday was the harshest that's ever been heard in public since the beginning of the EU. I'm pretty sure that isn't true. In 2005, I wrote about an acrimonious European Union summit ending in crisis, as Jean-Claude Juncker, Tony Blair and Jacques Chirac got into a furious shouting war over agricultural subsidies. Still, there was harsh disagreement over the plan to relocate 120,000 migrants to EU countries by means of mandatory quotes. As we reported yesterday, that plan was passed by a vote of interior ministers on Tuesday. In the past, such a controversial plan would be passed by unanimous vote, but in this case, four Central European countries voted against the plan; Romania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. It's pretty widely recognized that the plan is pretty useless anyway, for several reasons: There are 6,000-7,000 new migrants arriving in Europe every day, 480,000 so far this year. So the 120,000 in the plan only addresses a small part of the problem. If the EU assigns, say, 10,000 migrants to one particular country, the assignment is meaningless, since there's nothing to stop the migrants from leaving that country and traveling to whatever country they want, at least among the 25 countries of the EU Schengen Area. The four countries that voted against the plan say that might accept migrants voluntarily, but are opposed to mandatory quotas, which violate national sovereignty. Irish Times # With regard to the last point, a reader posted the following comment: "I absolutely agree with any country that opposes an imposed EU quota. It is analogous to the Americans wanting to secure our OWN border. Every country deserves to retain its culture. There are thousands of different cultures on the globe, each with their own carved out territory. They have their own traditions, foods, religions, family structure, etc. This is a great thing. If the people of a country want to retain their culture, and feel strongly enough about it, then I APPLAUD them for standing up and saying "NO" to this massive push for multiculturalism. And notice, multiculturalism is only pushed on mostly white nations (America and Europe). It's a hard truth to digest, but it can no longer be ignored." # This seems a perfectly reasonable, logical position to take, but it really isn't true, and probably has never been true at any place and time in history. Huge waves of migration have always occurred, at all times and places, and there's no way to stop them. The population of the European Union is 503 million, so even a million migrants would add only 0.2% to the population, so I'm not sure that the word "migration" even applies. Whatever it is, there's no way to stop it. When the World War II survivors signed the 1957 Treaty of Rome, which led to the formation of the European Union, they knew from the horrors of two World Wars that migration would always occur, and they decided that trying to stop it was one way to increase pressures that lead to war. But the painful lessons of history are never remembered, and each generation has to relearn them.... International Business Times and Bloomberg | POLITICS |

| Tweet Change text size for the story Print Report an error Related Stories Volkswagen shares plunge BERLIN -- Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn stepped down Wednesday over a scandal in which the German carmaker admitted to rigging its diesel cars' emissions to pass U.S. tests.
In a statement, Winterkorn said he took responsibility for the "irregularities" found in diesel engines but that he was "not aware of any wrongdoing on my part."
No replacement for the post of CEO was announced.
"Volkswagen needs a fresh start -- also in terms of personnel," he said. "I am clearing the way for this fresh start with my resignation."
Winterkorn said VW must continue the process of "clarification and transparency."
"This is the only way to win back trust. I am convinced that the Volkswagen Group and its team will overcome this grave crisis," he added.
Following his statement, VW's share price was up 8.7 per cent at 121 euros.
Still, it has a long way to make up for the declines that saw nearly 25 billion euros (around $28 billion) wiped off the company's market value.
Winterkorn had come under intense pressure since last Friday's disclosure from the Environmental Protection Agency that the company had tried to dupe testers over emissions coming from its diesel cars.
His contract was scheduled to be extended by two years through 2018 at a meeting this Friday of the supervisory board.
The Environmental Protection Agency has said Volkswagen AG could face fines of as much as $18 billion. Other countries, such as South Korea, have also ordered investigations into emission levels of VW cars and some law firms in North America have filed class-action suits.
On Tuesday, Volkswagen said 11 million of its vehicles worldwide contained the so-called "defeat device" that allowed the cars to beat the testers. Its revelation was a stunning increase from the 482,000 cars previously identified by the U.S.'s Environmental Protection Agency.

| Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption by Bryan Stevenson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a fantastic book that I would suggest should be read by almost everyone. It explores justice in the context of Bryan Stevenson's legal work on behalf of those who are in prison (particularly the children, mentally ill, poor, and minorities who have not been given fair treatment via the justice system). It is an extremely compassionate and unflinching look at the justice system. America has become so focused on punishment and all but ignores the possibilities of rehabilitation, that we are a nation of prisons. The stories that Stevenson shares in this book will outrage you, make you sad, make you feel powerless and make you want to do something to change things. It's a beautiful book and I highly recommend it. I am in awe of the work that Bryan Stevenson does for those who need help. His work is so important to so many people. I highly recommend this book to any and everyone. It's such an important book for all of us. | CULTURE & ARTS |

In response to the demand, the film composer has added a second concert at the Bowl on Nov. 1, organizers announced Wednesday. The concerts will feature a live orchestral performance to a screening of Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas." Elfman will perform vocals with an orchestra and chorus led by conductor John Mauceri. cComments Got something to say? Start the conversation and be the first to comment. Add a comment 0 The first concert is scheduled for Oct. 31, with a start time at 8:15 p.m. The Sunday, Nov. 1 concert is set to begin at 6:30 p.m. Tickets for the latter performance will go on sale at noon on Friday.
Producers said that the Bowl will resemble Halloween Town from the 1993 stop-motion animated movie. In addition, there will be an audience costume contest for which Tim Burton-themed costumes are encouraged.
Elfman will sing the role of Jack Skellington, the movie's "Pumpkin King" hero who hijacks Christmas and kidnaps Santa Claus. (The Oscar-nominated composer provided the original singing voice of Skellington in the movie.)
He will perform live with a cast of singers that has not yet been announced.
In recent years, Elfman has performed at Burton-themed concerts around the world, including performances in downtown L.A. This year, he sang in a Burton-themed concert that was part of the Lincoln Center Festival in New York.

Eid al Adha Message from MuslimVillage.com
Allahu akbar. Allahu akbar. La ilaha illallah. Wallahu akbar. Allahu akbar. Wa illahil hamd.
Eid Mubarak!
Hajj and Eid al Adha, and the towing example prophet Ibrahim and his families (peace be upon them all) remind us of the centrality of slave-hood and keeping our covenants with Allah, Most High, to our faith.
Indeed the weightiest of covenants is that of the “Two testimonies” or the “Shahadatayn” when we witness that there is no god but Allah and that our master Muhammad is the messenger of Allah (peace be upon him).
As we recall the submission of Abraham, kept alive in the Sunnah or way of the prophet Muhammad (Allah’s peace be upon them both) though this sacrifice, we could take the opportunity to reflect on how faithful we are to the two testimonies.
Such reflection would come at a time of great turmoil and upheaval and movement of people that resembles the “exodus” of the Bible. The so-called European “refugee crisis” and the wars and blood-shed in Muslim lands that have led to it should give us pause for contemplation also.
How true are we to the commands of Allah, Most High, as individuals whether it be the daily ritual prayer or the command to keep to our contracts or the command to be noble to our spouses and families? Are we scrupulous on those matters or do we think as the Quran recounts of some of the Jews “Never will the Fire touch us, except for a few days.” (Quran 2:80)?
If we cannot, as individuals, find the faith and patience to uphold the command of our Lord at home, at work, and at play then how can our communities and nations become sound and be united?
Today as we recall the momentous act of Ibrahim in fulfilling the dream of the sacrifice of his beloved son let us renew our commitment to our Lord, our Prophet (peace be upon him), our parents, our families, our employers, our leaders, and our nations, seeking the pleasure of Allah, Most High, in our efforts and interactions with all of them so that we can build, not destroy, families, communities, and nations that can then come together for Allah.
We at MuslimVillage pray for that and for a blessed and joyful Eid for the Umma, that marks a new milestone in closeness to Allah, Most High, and that sees that which displeases Him and distresses us removed from us in this world and the next. Amin.
Eid Mubarak from the entire team at MuslimVillage.com

| I was in the middle of watching an average hollywood flick when I received an SMS from brother which was saying, "The diagnosis has been [re]confirmed", which means mom had had a second test and it also showed she has a tumor. What the fucking fuuuuuuuuck? I paused the movie and started crying like crazy and I even tried to start screaming twice but every time I just covered my mouth with my hand so that my neighbours didn't sound the alarm once again. I cried and I cried and I cried and I stopped only when Maria got back several hours later from where she had been which I didn't know.
She told me to stop because my mental state of despair is of no use and by being depressive I'm not helping anyone. Also she said she didn't want her own existence to be poisoned by my psychosis.
We haven't had fun since yesterday morning and I don't understand why. Perhaps my tears, or my bristle or something else don't turn her on but VK surely seems to be a more pleasurable activity for her since she's spent several hours in it today.
She got back from her home/parents on Sunday after a month long absence. On Sunday, before she came, I washed the floor in the entire apartment and I also cleaned both sinks (in the kitchen and in the bathroom) and slightly cleaned the bath. I was beyond tired when she arrived but I didn't show it.
I know death awaits us all, but God I do not want mom to die this early. Why the fuck does she have to die before grandma who, even though she's in the midst of her 80s, is a lot healthier than mom?!!! I know this world is not fair, nor it's ever been, but the thought of it doesn't bring me any relief.
My health is worse than it's ever been. Since last Friday I started having a uninterruptable headache but what's new this time, is that this ache intensifies threefold when the right side of my head is facing the bed, i.e. when I'm lying trying to sleep. Maria has given me a massage twice and probably it helped a little, but I believe it hasn't helped much but I still told Maria that it had been helpful. The girl wants to help me after all.
She's now lying in bed, sleeping. I left her twenty minutes ago like I usually did in the past, i.e. I was laying next to her when she was falling asleep and then left her to get to the computer to stay in front of it until 5 or 6 am.
I don't want to live if mom's not around. It doesn't make sense because she's the only person in the world who truly loves me. Millions of people somehow manage to survive without receiving any kind of love but I guess it's not really about love per se, but about my life which has been a complete failure so far, and if mom's gone, keeping on makes no sense at all as it'll be all in vain as she won't be able to reap the fruits of my future endeavours.
When Maria returned I told her I wanted to impregnate her and she replied jokingly, "Is it because you want to create a new life when your mom is gone?" "You're quite right", I answered. "But you can lie to her about my pregnancy", she smiled and now I understand it doesn't make any sense because I do hope mom will make it and she'll be alive in nine months time.
Again I'm in an altered state of mind, I have goose bumps all over my body. | OTHERS |

| Skip Article Header. Skip to: Start of Article. Author: Kim Zetter. Kim Zetter Security Date of Publication: 09.17.15. 09.17.15 Time of Publication: 4:08 pm. 4:08 pm Hacker Lexicon: A Guide to Ransomware, the Scary Hack That’s on the Rise Then One/WIRED Ransomware is malware that locks your keyboard or computer to prevent you from accessing your data until you pay a ransom, usually demanded in Bitcoin. The digital extortion racket is not new—it’s been around since about 2005, but attackers have greatly improved on the scheme with the development of ransom cryptware, which encrypts your files using a private key that only the attacker possesses, instead of simply locking your keyboard or computer. TL;DR: Ransomware is malware that locks your keyboard or computer to prevent you from accessing your data until you pay a ransom—usually demanded in Bitcoin. A popular and more insidious variation of this is ransom cryptware, which encrypts your files using a private key that only the attacker possesses, instead of simply locking your keyboard or computer. And these days ransomware doesn’t just affect desktop machines or laptops; it also targets mobile phones. Last week news broke of a piece of ransomware in the wild masquerading as a porn app. The so-called Porn Droid app targets Android users and allows attackers to lock the phone and change its PIN number while demanding a $500 ransom from victims to regain access. Earlier this year, the FBI issued an alert warning that all types of ransomware are on the rise. Individuals, businesses, government agencies, academic institutions, and even law enforcement agents have all been victims. The malware can infect you via a malicious email or website, or attackers can deliver it straight to your computer if they’ve already infected it with a backdoor through which they can enter. The Ransom Business Is Booming Just how lucrative is ransomware? Very. In 2012, Symantec gained access to a command-and-control server used by the CryptoDefense malware and got a glimpse of the hackers’ haul based on transactions for two Bitcoin addresses the attackers used to receive ransoms. Out of 5,700 computers infected with the malware in a single day, about three percent of victims appeared to shell out for the ransom. At an average of $200 per victim, Symantec estimated that the attackers hauled in at least $34,000 that day (.pdf). Extrapolating from this, they would have earned more than $394,000 in a month. And this was based on data from just one command server and two Bitcoin addresses; the attackers were likely using multiple servers and Bitcoin addresses for their operation. Symantec has estimated, conservatively, that at least $5 million is extorted from ransomware victims each year. But forking over funds to pay the ransom doesn’t guarantee attackers will be true to their word and victims will be able to access their data again. In many cases, Symantec notes, this doesn’t occur. Ransomware has come a long way since it first showed up in Russia and other parts of Eastern Europe between 2005 and 2009. Many of these early schemes had a big drawback for perpetrators, though: a reliable way to collect money from victims. In the early days, online payment methods weren’t popular the way they are today, so some victims in Europe and the US were instructed to pay ransoms via SMS messages or with pre-paid cards. But the growth in digital payment methods, particularly Bitcoin, has greatly contributed to ransomware’s proliferation. Bitcoin has become the most popular method for demanding ransom because it helps anonymize the transactions to prevent extortionists from being tracked. According to Symantec, some of the first versions of ransomware that struck Russia displayed a pornographic image on the victim’s machine and demanded payment to remove it. The victim was instructed to make payments either through an SMS text message or by calling a premium rate phone number that would earn the attacker revenue. Symantec The Evolution of Ransomware It didn’t take long for the attacks to spread to Europe and the US, and with new targets came new techniques, including posing as local law enforcement agencies. One ransomware attack known as Reveton that is directed at US victims produces a pop-up message saying your machine has been involved in child porn activity or some other crime and has been locked by the FBI or Justice Department. Unless you pay a fine—in Bitcoin, of course, and sent to an address the attackers control—the government won’t restore access to your system. Apparently the fine for committing a federal offense involving child porn is cheap, however, because Reveton ransoms are just $500 or less. Victims are given 72 hours to pay up and an email address, fines@fbi.gov, if they have any questions. In some cases they are threatened with arrest if they don’t pay. However improbable the scheme is, victims have paid—probably because the extortionists distributed their malware through advertising networks that operated on porn sites, inducing guilt and fear in victims who had knowingly been perusing pornography, whether it was child porn or not. Symantec determined that some 500,000 people clicked on the malicious ads over a period of 18 days. In August 2013, the world of ransomware took a big leap with the arrival of CryptoLocker, which used public and private cryptographic keys to lock and unlock a victim’s files. Created by a hacker named Slavik, reportedly the same mind behind the prolific Zeus banking trojan, CryptoLocker was initially distributed to victims via the Gameover ZeuS banking trojan botnet. The attackers would first infect a victim with Gameover Zeus in order to steal banking credentials. But if that didn’t work, they installed the Zeus backdoor on the victim’s machine to simply extort them. Later versions of CryptoLocker spread via an email purporting to come from UPS or FedEx. Victims were warned that if they didn’t pay within four days—a digital doomsday clock in the pop-up message from the attackers counted down the hours—the decryption key would be destroyed and no one would be able to help unlock their files. In just six months, between September 2013 and May 2014, more than half a million victims were infected with CryptoLocker. The attack was highly effective, even though only about 1.3 percent of victims paid the ransom. The FBI estimated last year that the extortionists had swindled some $27 million from users who did pay. Among CryptoLocker’s victims? A police computer in Swansea, Massachusetts. The police department decided to pay the ransom of 2 Bitcoins (about $750 at the time) rather than try to figure out how to break the lock. “(The virus) is so complicated and successful that you have to buy these Bitcoins, which we had never heard of,” Swansea Police Lt. Gregory Ryan told the Herald News. In June 2014, the FBI and partners were able to seize command-and-control servers used for the Gameover Zeus botnet and CryptoLocker. As a result of the seizure, the security firm FireEye was able to develop a tool called DecryptCryptoLocker to unlock victims’ machines. Victims could upload locked files to the FireEye web site and obtain a private key to decrypt them. FireEye was only able to develop the tool after obtaining access to a number of the crypto keys that had been stored on the attack servers. Prior to the crackdown, CryptoLocker had been so successful that it spawned several copycats. Among them was one called CryptoDefense, which used aggressive tactics to strong-arm victims into paying. If they didn’t fork over the ransom within four days, it doubled. They also had to pay using the Tor network so the transactions were anonymized and not as easily traced. The attackers even provided users with a handy how-to guide for downloading and installing the Tor client. But they made one major mistake—they left the decryption key for unlocking victim files stored on the victim’s machine. The ransomware generated the key on the victim’s machine using the Windows API before sending it to the attackers so they could store it until the victim paid up. But they failed to understand that in using the victim’s own operating system to generate the key, a copy of it remained on the victim’s machine. The “malware author’s poor implementation of the cryptographic functionality has left their hostages with the key to their own escape,” Symantec noted in a blog post. The business of ransomware has become highly professionalized. In 2012, for example, Symantec identified some 16 different variants of ransomware, which were being used by different criminal gangs. All of the malware programs, however, could be traced back to a single individual who apparently was working full time to program ransomware for customers on request. The Ransomware to Watch Out for Now Recently Fox-IT catalogued what they consider to be the top three ransomware families in the wild today, which they identify as CryptoWall, CTB-Locker, and TorrentLocker. CryptoWall is an improved version of CryptoDefense minus its fatal flaw. Now, instead of using the victim’s machine to generate the key, the attackers generate it on their server. In one version of CryptoWall they use strong AES symmetric cryptography to encrypt the victim’s files and an RSA-2048 key to encrypt the AES key. Recent versions of CryptoWall host their command server on the Tor network to better hide them and also communicate with the malware on victim machines through several proxies. CryptoWall can not only encrypt files on the victim’s computer but also any external or shared drives that connect to the computer. And the shakedown demand can range anywhere from $200 to $5,000. CryptoWall’s authors have also established an affiliate program, which gives criminals a cut of the profit if they help spread the word about the ransomware to other criminal buyers. CTB-Locker’s name stands for curve-Tor-Bitcoin because it uses an elliptic curve encryption scheme, the Tor network for hosting its command server, and Bitcoin for ransom payments. It also has an affiliate sales program. TorrentLocker harvests email addresses from a victim’s mail client to spam itself to other victims. Fox-IT calculated at one point that TorrentLocker had amassed some 2.6 million email addresses in this manner. Protecting against ransomware can be difficult since attackers actively alter their programs to defeat anti-virus detection. However, antivirus is still one of the best methods to protect yourself against known ransomware in the wild. It might not be possible to completely eliminate your risk of becoming a victim of ransomware, but you can lessen the pain of being a victim by doing regular backups of your data and storing it on a device that isn’t online.

| Sometimes it’s important to step back from personal finance learning, to think about the End Game. Money is not an end in itself. Instead it’s a means to an end: a way to do things, learn information, experience a way of life before unimagined. There’s a limit to what you can earn in a lifetime, but there’s no limit to what you can do. So what’s all this money for?
When surveyed, people concerned with earning money report that Travel is one of the most important priorities for them. Travel broadens the mind. It allows one to see the way other people live, foreign political climates, and a gallimaufry of motivations for all kinds of decisions and behaviors. It is one of the best ways to cultivate a broad perspective of the way the world works.
But travel is expensive. This is the primary excuse that people give when they report reasons that they don’t travel. The thing is, expenses are relegated to a small handful of arenas. If you are able to avoid costs in these areas, you’ll avoid expenses over all. After all, we are living in the same world where a man recently visited every country on the globe, all with a shoestring budget. Clearly, travel can be done. You’ve just got to do it right.
Not all of us want to visit the world by raft, as in the example mentioned in the previous paragraph. For this class of people, airfare can be expected to be the most exorbitant price of all involved in world travel. But some airlines are learning that it’s more profitable to provide an affordable flight experience to many, than it is to provide an expensive travel experience to a very few. This is the fulcrum upon which the universal travel experience is being revolutionized.
If you are able to buy a cheap flight, chances are you can travel anywhere you want . Most of my readers are from the United States and Canada. These two nations enjoy an elite spot among world currencies. Basically, your money represents more wealth than that of foreign nations. If you are able to get to another country, you’ll find that, once there, you are able to make a life for yourself for a lot cheaper than you are back in your home nation.
That’s why airline industries charge what they do. In addition to fuel costs, insurance requirements, and mechanical concerns, airlines are the gatekeeper to the universal travel experience. They know this. As such, they charge a premium to get just about…anywhere. But a few rogue airlines are starting to prioritize quantity over (supposed) quality. We’re talking about airlines like Wow, and the ill-fated Airbus.
At this point in history, traveling internationally is unprecedented in its affordability. It’s remarkably easy for people of all stripes and incomes to see the world. So don’t wait. Do some research on an airline that provides reasonable flights to your destination of choice. Travel changes the way you see the world. Make it a priority and you’ll find that it’s affordable. Your world will never be the same.

| Malware like Ransomware is a serious problem but instead of victimizing desktops and laptops, mobile devices are now the latest victims. It’s not really surprising because millions of people already rely on their smartphones or tablets for even their major computing tasks. Almost anything can be done on small mobile devices now that attackers have learned to target them because it’s easier.

| First Probation – A Step Back from the World September 23, 2015 snnov Leave a comment Go to comments One aspect of the Noviciate I hadn’t been fully aware of during my application is the period called ‘first probation’. As I prepared to come down to Birmingham, I had a vague notion that, for the first few days, we would have restricted contact with family and friends. There was also the sense that this would be the Society giving us a final once over. But that was about the sum of my knowledge. As it turns out, first probation is a much more substantial period both in time and purpose. Yes, there was limited contact with the outside world and, yes, this was the Society’s first opportunity (and our own) to have second thoughts, but most importantly from my perspective, it also served as an ‘on ramp’, enabling us new arrivals to slowly get up to the right speed. To extend the metaphor slightly, I’m pleased to report that, so far, there have been no crashes, just the occasional clunk and grind as we’ve changed up the gears. For me, the three stand-out elements of the probation period – which lasts just under a fortnight and culminates in a 3 day period of silent retreat – were the work to (i) build our sense of community, (ii) deepen our prayer life and (iii) broaden our knowledge of the Society and our place within it. I will write at a later date about prayer and community, as these were the places I found God most powerfully in the first few days. It did occasionally feel strange not to be able to access a computer or pick up the phone and, indeed, on arrival we had to put our personal phones and any iPads or laptops out of use. But, the theory behind the approach is a good one. If we are to make the most of this new life, it is important for us to make a clear step in a new direction, breaking the patterns of our old ways of living. The restriction on contacting our families and friends was symbolic of that choice, but also an important part of it. In my previous work, computers and phones and constant connectivity were a big part of my day to day experience. It is certainly a blessing to take a step back from that old reality. In terms of studies, the bulk of the first week was spent looking at a range of material, including some of the founding documents of the Society and the auto-biography of St Ignatius. These, in essence, set out what the Society expects of us – the sort of people we must work and aspire to be – and the nature of the mission that we are being prepared for. It was the Society saying very clearly: this is what you are signing up for. Are you up to it and up for it? At the heart of the mission that was set out is the desire to be true companions of Christ, with all that means for attitude and outlook. That central desire then flows into a determination to help build God’s kingdom – a kingdom of love and mercy – around us. That is something as far away from the rat-race as you could imagine – a shift of approach and vision of 180 degrees. What could be more exciting? First probation, therefore, seems to be for us Novices, a taste of the life to come and the life that is possible, if we choose it. So far, the answer is a definite Yes!

| NASA By Steve Cole Seas around the world have risen an average of nearly 3 inches since 1992, with some locations rising more than 9 inches due to natural variation, according to the latest satellite measurements from NASA and its partners. An intensive research effort now underway, aided by NASA observations and analysis, points to an unavoidable rise of several feet in the future. Members of NASA’s new interdisciplinary Sea Level Change Team will discuss recent findings and new agency research efforts during a media teleconference today at 12:30 p.m. EDT. NASA will stream the teleconference live online. The question scientists are grappling with is how quickly will seas rise? “Given what we know now about how the ocean expands as it warms and how ice sheets and glaciers are adding water to the seas, it’s pretty certain we are locked into at least 3 feet of sea level rise, and probably more,” said Steve Nerem of the University of Colorado, Boulder, and lead of the Sea Level Change Team. “But we don’t know whether it will happen within a century or somewhat longer.” | ENVIRONMENT & ANIMALS |

| Since it was announced that Nick Diaz has been suspended for five years by the Nevada Commission, several fighters have spoken out about the decision, and now so has Ronda Rousey .
On Monday, the NSAC prompted a collective gasp throughout the MMA world by suspending Diaz for five years, following his positive test for marijuana earlier this year. Diaz has tested positive for weed now on three separate occasions, but no one predicted he’d be handed what’s essentially a lifetime ban for a 32 year-old fighter.
Rousey’s in Australia today to promote her November 15th, UFC 193 headliner with Holly Holm. At a press conference for the upcoming card, the bantamweight champ had this to say about Diaz’s suspension (quote via MMA Junkie.com ):
“It’s so unfair if one person tests for steroids that could actually really hurt a person and the other person smokes a plant that makes them happy and he gets suspended for five years, whereas the guy that could hurt someone gets a slap on the wrist,” Rousey said. “It’s not fair. It’s not fair at all. It doesn’t make me a bad person for saying it, it just – I can’t believe it’s not being said more. I think they really should free Nick Diaz, but it’s not (UFC President) Dana (White’s) decision either.
“I don’t think marijuana should be part of the conversation at all. I think it’s an invasion of privacy for them to test for it, and they have no right.”
Rousey certainly isn’t alone in this opinion. Now it will be interesting to see whether and or how the NSAC responds to the outcry. Diaz’s legal team plans to appeal the decision, but even if that’s successful, two years or so could by without seeing the outspoken fighter compete.
The former Strikeforce champ returned to action this past January and lost via unanimous decision to Anderson Silva at UFC 183. Silva tested positive for PEDs, however, and the bout was declared a no contest. The former middleweight champ is eligible to return to the cage next January.
If his appeal isn’t successful, then Diaz will be 37 before he can fight again.

| 1,027 words on The Bone Box, two hours work. I'm satisfied with the morning session which ran well into lunch time. The writing went slowly because my skills challenge is to write to show, not tell. I think I tell too much. Have to master the art of showing because that's how emotion is infused in fiction.
The idea is not to make a scene longer necessarily, but to enhance the reader's experience, to make details vivid, and add depth and dimension to the scene. The scene I wrote this morning has some good showing in it, but it could be better. | OTHERS |

| The Popular Party and all the national parties of the Spanish parliamentary arch, they will enlarge another time the field of functions and attributions of the Constitutional Tribunal, besides the capacity to sanction to the rulers that unfulfilled their sentences, (an initiative that was thought to brake an eventual declaration of independence of Catalonia) now they will give them urban polices attributions and of agents of cleaning of the streets of Barcelona, because they will be able to fine or to stop or in to disable to some politicians if he comes them in desires, but they will never be able to make the multitude that we have seen today in the Meridian Avenue of Barcelona remain silent. The objective of recent law of constitutional abuse is evident that it sought that brakes the Catalan politicians, or said otherwise that protects the Spanish politicians for not having to face with the Catalan reality and they were not happened nothing else that to not endow of prerogatives contemplated in origin, in the Spanish constitution, to a purely judicial institution, like it is the own Constitutional Tribunal whose mission is in fact to interpret the constitution in suspicious cases of unconstitutional actions, or to clarify consultations on some doubt on the own interpretation of the constitution it doesn't stop to be police. But it had never been thought in that has executive character as to exercise police's action I repeat, by no means of executioner or executioners that it is less hard, of sentences bigger than civil or criminal hardships, and to impose if he lends himself economic tickets as coercive elements to complete the norms (...). More or less the state of the PP has converted the TC to the range of civil police. But I eat lately it happens, the state of the PP doesn't find out the reality and therefore it legislates outside of this reality. Now today we have seen amazed as it is not a politician neither two neither three those that take to Catalonia to the independence, but rather he is Catalan people the one that takes the politicians to that form a new country, a new nation, a republic independent Catalan, and now that he will make the government of the PP, he will give more attributions to the TC he will be able to this tribunal to stop to millions of Catalan that ask democratically to vote freedom. "The joke has ended", Albiol candidate the PP said for the Catalan elections, in declarations picked up by diverse means. In the first moments to be known this new law, because Mr. Albiol has already seen it, the joke, the thing has not ended he goes to me he looks like each other it very seriously and this joke is for sure the whole world will travel and it will be very difficult to make them believe that this is a joke, near two million people according to some sources are not a joke, and its orderly behavior without any agent of the armed order, neither surrounding them, without any type of barriers separators, without wires of thorns to guide them in order so that they are not left that allowed, it is not a joke they have already seen it, we all knew that he was necessary to make as and without a single incident, wonderful.
But now allow me him to give him the turn and for a moment he tells them, think that it could happen, if instead of being requesting you liberate democratically and civically, seeing that you continue without making neither I marry, minimizing them and almost laughing at our will and feelings gets tired of being democratic and civic, and we take it to the tremendous one that they will make you sent us a judge of the constitutional tribunal, or they sent us to the minister Morenes with the army. I don't know it, but that that if you, is that a judge would not get anything, but I don't believe to you able to take the second option, because they would possibly be able to stop at the moment and as always they threaten us, possibly somebody would leave the UE but I fear myself that it would be the country that threatens to a defenseless society and whose crime has been to request democratically an and another time the freedom, please already think seriously it, don't threaten neither to the politicians neither the Catalan society, wait calm to that the elections of the 27S arrive and then negotiate all that they find. | POLITICS |

| No bilateral meeting scheduled between Modi, Sharif in US by PTI 1 min ago New York, Sep 24: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will not have a bilateral meeting with his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif during his current visit to the US, officials said. “As of now there is nothing, no bilateral meeting on the schedule,” Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Vikas Swarup told reporters here. Modi and Sharif are staying in the same hotel in the city – the iconic Waldorf Astoria. When asked if there will be a “deliberate attempt” to ensure that paths of the two leaders do not cross, Swarup replied in the negative. “There will be no deliberate attempt (at paths not crossing). If a hand shake happens, you will get to see it. If a pull aside happens you will get to see it,” he said. Sharif is slated to reach New York tomorrow evening. Modi will address the Sustainable Development Summit hosted by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on September 25, when the new and ambitious post-2015 development agenda will be adopted. Sharif is scheduled to address the high-level meeting on September 27. Modi will be in California on September 26 and 27 and will return to New York on September 28, when apart from meeting US President Barack Obama, he will attend the high-level Peacekeeping Summit at the UN headquarters. Since Sharif will also be attending the summit, the multilateral gathering will provide a forum for the leaders of India and Pakistan to come face-to-face. Modi, who arrived here today for his second US visit, will depart for India late September 28 or the early morning of September 29 but Sharif will remain in the city. He will address the annual debate of the General Assembly on September 30, a day before India’s External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj addresses the gathering of world leaders on October 1.

| Ella and Drizzy have everyone in a tizzy!
Both Lorde and Drake are currently making their rounds New York Fashion Week, and they decided to snap a photo together yesterday (September 16) while backstage at Kanye West's Yeezy Season 2 show.
The "Hotline Bling" rapper later shared the pic on his official Instagram, but it was the caption that really got people talking.
"Wifey (Low Key)" he wrote, complete with several diamond ring emojis.
https://instagram.com/p/7tKjGQjQM5/
For her part, Lorde, whose been nursing a mysterious eye injury at NYFW, tweeted the pic and also shared plenty of love for the "Hotline Bling" rapper:
https://twitter.com/lordemusic/status/644260026962587648/
As Drake was spotted earlier this week supporting his rumored girlfriend Serena Williams' new line (while cracking jokes with Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour) and Lorde's been in a relationship for some time, it's likely their relationship is platonic.
However, the photo still has fans crying out for a collaboration, so maybe Lorde will be Drake's work 'wifey' sometime in the near future.

| The long-running trial of Dewey & LeBouef actually became interesting. Equally interesting have been the long-running jury deliberations. That’s primarily because The Wall Street Journal journalist, Sara Randazzo, has been live-tweeting it.
Live-tweeting enhanced the global interest in “Pao v. Kleiner.” The defense legal team took those tweets seriously.
Likely, unless judges don’t allow live-tweeting, that will be expected in high-profile trials or in any of those in which the stakes are high for the defendants and/or plaintiffs.
One wonders why the bench trial “People of California v. ARCO” wasn’t live-tweeted. Did the judge not allow it? Or did the public relations front lines not recommend that? The issue – public nuisance – could crush American business. Perhaps even more than asbestos did. Didn’t the public relations understand the role of social?
Yesterday, one of the defendants in “People of CA v. ARCO,” Sherwin-Williams, had a hit to its stock because of “social activity.” That could have been related to the blogging about the matter of public nuisance. High-traffic social linked to that post.
There will be an appeal hearing later this year. Will the public relations leaders get social by then?

| Surpassing Twitter by more than 80 million users, Instagram announced it now has a community of more than 400 million around the world. This means that Instagram is bigger than Twitter. Going from one million users in December 2010 to 400 million in 2015 represents meteoric growth no matter how you gauge it. And the one billion dollars Facebook paid when it only had 30 million users in 2012 has proven to be a great investment. According to eMarketer’s first-ever forecast of how much advertisers will spend on Instagram, the company is expected to be earning $2.81 billion globally by 2017, surpassing Google and Twitter in U.S. mobile display ad revenue. The pent up demand the company has built for advertising is paying off, and it is about to get bigger as the company introduces more features. Debra Aho Williamson, eMarketer principal analyst said: “The rollout of new features over the next several months means that by the end of 2015, Instagram will have a host of new ad products for advertisers large and small. In particular, Instagram advertisers will be able to use a full slate of Facebook targeting tools, including the popular Custom Audiences feature. That will be a key drawing card.” Four hundred million users and new tools for advertising means small businesses will have another outlet to market the products and services they sell using a medium today’s consumers like, visual communication. Instagram’s reliance on images has translated into a user base that is more engaged. According to Forrester, a study it carried out of more than 3 million user interactions with more than 2,500 brand posts on seven social networks revealed Instagram blew everyone away. The study found top brands generated a per-follower engagement rate of 4.21 percent for Instagram. This was 58 times more engagement per follower than Facebook and a whopping 120 times more than Twitter. With an average of 80 million photos being posted daily, the platform demands engagement from its users, and they do. Instagram ranks third only behind Facebook (42 minutes) and Tumblr (34 minutes) in the amount of time its user spend using the site, coming in at 21.2 minutes. That is the type of engagement businesses need in order to ensure their advertising is paying off. As a small business, you have to use Instagram to highlight your brand by letting users see your personality through images. Instagram recommends following five guidelines: be true to your brand, share experiences, turn business into beauty, encourage an action and know your demographics’ motivations. Businesses can use a range of tools, including Instagram Direct to drive personal messages with photos and 15-second videos. However, there are many different dynamics that goes into identifying your brand and having your audience understand it. Images simplify that process, and if you decide to use Instagram, take your time and experiment with the free options before you decide to shell out some of your hard earned cash.

Normal limits of the electrocardiogram in a chinese population
Chen C Y.; Chiang B.N.; Macfarlane P.W., 1989: Normal limits of the electrocardiogram in a chinese population. Journal Of Electrocardiology. 22(1): 1-16
12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) from 503 healthy Chinese individuals were computer-analyzed to derive the normal limits of the ECG in a Chinese population. With respect of ECG amplitudes, there were highly significant differences between men and women. The mean S wave amplitude in V2 decreased with increasing age, but the mean R wave amplitude in V5, for example, remained remarkably constant throughout the age groups. The QRS duration was on average 7.6 msec shorter in women than in men. The mean frontal QRS axis shifted superiorly by 17.degree. with increasing age, resulting in an upward trend in R wave amplitude in leads I and AVL. It was concluded that ECG diagnostic criteria for Chinese individuals should be age- and sex-dependent.

| Michael Kostka has lived on both sides of the Battle of Ontario.
And then some.
Kostka, the 29-year-old defenceman who received his first NHL taste with the Toronto Maple Leafs, is likely destined to start the 2015-16 season with the Baby Senators in Binghamton of the American Hockey League. But his baby steps in hockey began in his old Nepean backyard.
“I grew up outside Toronto (in Ajax), but I lived in Barrhaven from ages one to four,” Kostka said Sunday. “(I skated) on a little rink on top of an old 8x8 tarp, off the deck. I actually can remember that. I was probably only two or three. And there was also a creek behind my house.”
Following those humble beginnings, Kostka enjoyed his share of fame with the Maple Leafs, in a late-blooming, local-boy-makes-good kind of way. In the lockout season of 2012-13, he played 35 games with the Leafs. That was enough time to receive a first-hand appreciation for the Ottawa-Toronto rivalry.
“I played with (Senators left winger) Clarke MacArthur in Toronto, but I don’t know how many players have played with both teams,” he said. “It’s a cool thing, having both in the same province. I always loved playing here, the crowd split half and half, cheering for both sides. It creates a great atmosphere.”
The Senators organization might beg to differ on that last point, but Kostka says his background as a Maple Leafs fan and Maple Leafs player is history. He has also played in the Chicago, Tampa Bay and New York Rangers organizations.
“I was a Leafs fan, but once I turned pro, that changes really quickly,” he said. “I did have a chance to play with them and that was pretty special and cool, but as the years go on, I have different colours on. That’s the team I’m a fan for.”
After being on a yo-yo ride between the NHL and AHL in the past few seasons, including 28 games with Chicago and Tampa Bay in 2013-14 and seven games with the Rangers last season, Kostka carefully examined his options in the summer before choosing the Senators.
“You gotta go where they want you, at this point,” he said. “Fortunately, going into free agency, you’ve got a few teams that talk to you, and you get a feel for where they see you within the organization. In my situation, I’m looking to get back to the NHL, and in my conversations with Ottawa, I thought this was my best opportunity to do that.”
He could be eighth, ninth or 10th on the Senators' defence depth chart, but having been around pro hockey for a while, he knows better than to start analyzing every tidbit of speculation about who might fit in where.
“You start counting numbers and go try and read whatever … no, I definitely stay away from all that stuff,” he said. “You’ve got to realize it’s you versus you. Put your best foot forward. All that other stuff, it doesn’t really matter, as long as you play the best you can. That other stuff can mess with you.”
BONUS ACTION FOR FANS: The 8,000 fans who showed up for Sunday’s Fun Fest received an added bonus following the noon scrimmage. Even though the Red squad claimed a 4-1 victory over the White squad — for those scoring at home, David Dziurzynski, Nick Tuzzolino, Mike Hoffman, Max McCormick and Zack Stortini scored the goals — the teams played a five-minute 3-on-3 as a way to familiarize players and fans to the incoming overtime format.
The early verdict from players is that it’s better than deciding games by a shootout.
“I think it’s more exciting for everyone, including our players,” said goaltender Craig Anderson, who received some oohs and ahs for a fully extended poke check. “At least it keeps a team sport a team sport.”
Mark Stone enjoyed it, but says it will take some time to adjust.
“It was fun,” said Stone, who scored the winner with one second remaining. “I’m still learning a bit. I think I got two shifts out there, I think I made seven or eight bone-headed decisions. It was just out of pure not knowing what to do. We’ll watch some video on it and see what went well and go from there.”

| ST. LOUIS (KMOX/AP) - Former St. Louis County Police Chief Tim Fitch says an anti-police sentiment is growing across the country. The latest proof, Fitch says, is the killing of an officer at a Houston-area gas station over the weekend.
Fitch puts partial blame on White House administration for its silence on the trend.
"What have we heard from the White House?" Fitch says. "We've had seven officers killed in the line of duty in the last nine days. Fourteen of them in August. I don't think we have heard anything from anybody in the White House administration."
He says the anti-police movement was fueled by U.S. Attorney Eric Holder's remarks calling for "wholesale change" in the Ferguson police department before there was an investigation of the Michael Brown shooting.
Authorities say a suburban Houston police officer, Darren Goforth was ambushed at a gas station and shot 15 times. The accused gunman, Shannon Miles, 30, appeared briefly in court Monday in Houston. He is being held without bond. He was appointed two attorneys. A prosecutor says the shell casings from the shooting of Goforth match the handgun that was found at Miles' home.
Goforth, a 10-year veteran, was pumping gas Friday evening when he was ambushed and fatally shot. He died at the gas station.
Hickman said Miles was the person of interest who had been with police all day. His exact motive for allegedly killing Goforth was unclear.
"The really bad thing about all this is that Shannon Miles is going to be a hero when he gets to the penitentiary," Fitch says. "He will be seen as a hero. Then when Texas executes him, he will be a martyr."
Fitch was a guest on the Mark Reardon show on KMOX. Fitch says 15 of the 59 officers who were killed in the line of duty last year were ambushed, triple the number the year before.

| At five a.m. this morning, my husband woke me while taking money from my wallet to buy donuts for himself and our fourth child who was to accompany him to the lumberyard. He was buying wood to build a picnic table and a couple of porch swings.
My husband shouldn’t be driving a car. He shouldn’t be making things with wood yet. He had shoulder surgery several weeks ago, and at this point, his arm should be immobilized ninety percent of the time. He’s on short-term disability, home from work for an entire month, and he’s bored silly, so immobilization couldn’t last. It barely lasted a week.
Now he’s making furniture and renovating the storm windows. If he gets on a ladder, I’ll scream. And that should stop him. I think it really will.
It’s been interesting having him home all day. For the first week I gave him sponge baths, made him eggs, brought him entertainments, and took leisurely walks with him in the park. It was heaven. I thought I might amputate his legs, and keep him here with me all the time as my special patient. How delightful it was to serve, to experience his gratitude and dependency.
The second week, it seemed that he was willing to exert himself selectively. He was still too sore to do tedious tasks, but somehow he rallied for the interesting ones. I watched as he exhibited competency on the things I kind of enjoyed doing, like making the eggs. It seemed he was branching into my department of service, but leaving the position unfilled when it came time to throw away his Coke cans.
By the third week, he’d started asking for nooners.
“I don’t think you’re sick anymore,” I said.
He answered with a couple bars of the Marvin Gaye song, “Sexual Healing,” which made me think that a few light projects around the house might not be a bad idea.
And now, we are almost back to normal, the temporary politenesses have dissipated. I keep imagining that there are easier ways to love and be loved, and so my attentions have returned to the children, who are helpless and needy, and who have begun their marathon of checkups that attend the imminent return to school.
I miss my husband and those languorous post-op days when the kids were at my parents’ house and it was just him and me, watching movies, talking, and making a good recovery.
I wouldn’t really amputate his legs to keep him home with me, but there’s something so pleasing about unlimited, unstructured time together. There was of course also something that made us both anxious. The return to action and doing things was inevitable, not only because things just needed to be done, but because in some way, too much time together is terrifying.
In a recent interview in America Magazine, Jean Vanier, founder of L’Arche, said:
Love is to reveal to someone: “you are beautiful and you have value.” That is the secret of love. It’s not primarily to do things for people, because then we find our glory in doing things. The secret of love is to reveal to someone that “you are precious,” that “you are beautiful.
It’s so much easier for me to love the helpless than it is to love the strong. As long as there’s a meal to cook and laundry to wash, I’m doing my ever-loving duty.
Where there’s strength, however, there’s no need for my action. Giving my husband complete attention as his strength returned required a focus, inactivity, and self-abnegation that bore too much resemblance to a turnip to be very comfortable.
I can’t help thinking of Jesus letting his body be destroyed so he could take up residence in a piece of bread. I used to receive the Eucharist thinking I’d take it out to the unchurched masses, donating my own strength in heroic acts of evangelization, and thus would Christ’s mission on earth be fulfilled.
The more I discover how I want to be loved, however, it seems more likely that Christ becomes present in a piece of bread—flesh, spirit, wholly present—in order to say, Look, I’m the source of all strength, so technically, I don’t need you. Even so, I love you, and I’m not going anywhere. I’ve got no arms, no legs. I’m just here to be unadulterated, unconditional Presence to you.
There’s a dark corner of my heart that’s always secretly suspected that crucifixion isn’t that big of a deal. We all die in the end, and so many apostles and martyrs underwent equally gruesome deaths.
I could even make a pretty good case that I have undergone, and continue to undergo crucifixion for my own family. Do I not nail my foot to the gas pedal and my hands to the steering wheel every night driving my kids to their various activities out of love? Have I not been wrenched from the inside out with each pregnancy and birth, with each small death I undergo in a day trying to live with these people who wake me up at five a.m. to steal my cash and do unreasonable things with it?
The truly miraculous thing is this host. Who can become food? Who can let themselves be consumed again and again? Human nature revolts at the thought—personality expunged, strength yielded, body wasted—for the sole purpose of nourishing someone else.
The great terror of spending too much time in this unmitigated presence is that eventually I might consume and be consumed by it, that the two might become one. Oh Lord, it makes me want to run for my life.

The TSC has advertised positions for 70,000 relief tutors. PHOTO | ANTHONY OMUYA | NATION MEDIA GROUP In Summary According to the TSC, the 70,000 teachers will supplement around 45,000 others who are already on duty. Currently, there are 288,000 teachers employed by the TSC. The applicants must also be registered as teachers as required by Section 23 of the Teachers Service Commission Act By MARYANNE GICOBI
More by this Author The fate of the striking teachers now hangs in the balance after their employer advertised positions for 70,000 relief tutors.
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) says it is recruiting 50,000 primary school teachers and 20,000 secondary school teachers on a three-month contract. The TSC announced the hiring in an advertisement to appear in local dailies on Thursday. The application deadline is Monday, October 5, and the teachers should apply through their county directors of education. The contract teachers are expected to restore learning that has been paralysed for a month now due to the teachers’ strike. “The teachers will be hired on a three-month contract and will thereafter be considered on a priority basis for employment on permanent terms when vacancies arise,” reads the letter by the TSC’s chief executive officer, Ms Nancy Macharia. According to the TSC, the 70, 000 teachers will supplement around 45,000 others who are already on duty. Currently, there are 288,000 teachers employed by the TSC. School administrators — heads of institutions, their deputies and the senior teachers — have been on duty, as they usually do not take part in strikes. BELOW 45 YEARS The employer is looking for teachers who are below 45 years old, are Kenyan citizens and have original professional and academic certificates. The applicants must also be registered as teachers as required by Section 23 of the Teachers Service Commission Act. “All applicants, both Primary and Secondary should submit their applications together with certified copies of certificates, transcripts, testimonials and ID Card to the TSC County Directors of their respective home counties not later than 5th October, 2015,” says Ms Macharia. Those applying for vacancies in primary schools are required to be holders of a P1 certificate whereas applicants for vacancies in secondary schools must be holders of a minimum of a diploma in education certificate. The TSC has advertised vacancies available in each county. Successful applicants are asked not fill employment forms in more than one station as this will lead to disqualification. | EDUCATION |

| …It’s a confusing world out there. Some say gold is going to $700 (and they might be right, temporarily), and others say gold will shoot to $10,000 (and they might be right, temporarily). I’m in the middle and, when I tell you why, I hope you see the wisdom of why you should join me there, too.
The above comments, and those below, have been edited by Lorimer Wilson, editor of munKNEE.com ( Your Key to Making Money! ) and the FREE Market Intelligence Report newsletter (see sample here – register here ) for the sake of clarity ([ ]) and brevity (…) to provide a fast and easy read. The contents of this post have been excerpted from an article* by Jeff D. Opdyke (sovereignsociety.com) as posted on Gold-Eagle.com under the title The Next Gold Rush and which can be read in its unabridged format HERE . (This paragraph must be included in any article re-posting to avoid copyright infringement.)
The world is not in a good way
Seven years on from the worst financial calamity since the Great Depression and not a helluva lot has really changed for the better.
The world’s most important countries are deeper in debt. The world’s most important consumer populations are deeper in debt. The too-big-to-fail banks are bigger, so we know that moral hazard is now bigger since governments can never let those banks fail. The world’s politicians…have done little to improve the lot of the common man or manage well the treasuries those politicians control. Instead of prescribing a financial enema to allow the world economy to purge its collected refuse, global central bankers have been stuffing the world economy with sweets and high-calorie junk food (quantitative easing and other such monetary gerrymanders) in order to induce a sugar high to make us all think life really is better than it was back in 2008.
Is life really better than it was back in 2008. Of course not! It’s a good bit riskier than it was back then, which is why physical gold is such a necessary component of any collection of financial assets. [As I see it] a reckoning is coming. It has to.
A crisis is the only catharsis to a world addled by excessive debts at every level of society. The pain will surpass 2008. The problem, however, isn’t leading the horse to water or getting him to drink – it’s getting the horse to recognize he’s thirsty in the first place.
Gold Is More Than an Investment
Buying gold for its investment merits is like buying a car because it’s a great place to listen to music.
Cars are not useful because they play music, and gold is not useful because it’s an investment. Gold is useful because it’s governmental insurance.
Government…[has] built up too much debt in the world. That debt, in turn, impacts the ability of central bankers…to do their jobs properly. They’re left to manipulate monetary policy and markets in order to save the world from what politicians have created.
This won’t go on forever. At some point, a crisis must happen to relieve the pressures that have built up and, in every crisis throughout history, gold has played a role and it has risen in value to protect purchasing power. It will do so again.
Even a 21 st century financial system is not so different that gold’s role as currency insurance of last resort will be diminished. In the right moment — in a debt-fueled currency crisis — gold will shine just as brightly as it always has in moments of total global chaos. That’s the path we’re on – and there are no exit ramps.
You can buy gold now at cheap prices and prepare for the future, or you can decide gold is dead and even then you’re still preparing for the future — just in the wrong way.
The race doesn’t always go to the swiftest but to the surest of foot. [Buy gold – now!]

Related Articles from the munKNEE Vault:
1. Is There A Correlation Between Gold’s Price & U.S. Public Debt?
Is there a one-to-one positive correlation between the price of gold and the U.S. public debt? Yes and no. Let me explain.
2. Does gold really serve as an inflation hedge?
The traditional motive behind investing in gold is as a hedge against inflation but the hedge properties of gold are increasingly questioned. In fact, its role as an inflation hedge is perhaps the most debated and ambiguous issue in the financial press and academic literature. This article analyzes all the research and puts forth a convincing conclusion.
3. Gold’s Price Is Mostly Affected By These Macroeconomic Factors
For relevant analysis of gold prices, the so-called “fundamentals” provide scant help. What is required is an understanding of the macroeconomic drivers at play. This article addresses 9 such factors.
4. Gold – Is It A Commodity, A Currency, Neither or Both?
To answer the question “what drives the prices of gold” we have to determine the nature of gold. Is it a commodity, a currency, neither or both? This article does just that. Read on.
5. Noonan: Why Buy Gold & Silver? Here’s Why
Here’s the best reason to buy and hold gold and silver, at any price, and especially at these artificially suppressed prices.
6. Is gold a good portfolio diversifier?
While the correlation between bonds and stocks tends to increase during economic turmoil, gold usually becomes negatively correlated with other asset classes in such times. This means that the diversification benefits of gold are maintained and may even increase in during severe crises. Let me explain further and provide some caveats.
7. Own Gold As An Insurance Policy On Your Investment Portfolio – Here’s Why
We are content to pay for house insurance for most of our lives yet very few of us have actually experienced a fire or a major disaster where we had to use the insurance. We are comfortable with paying the premiums every year in order to avoid a catastrophic loss. Well, owning gold is tantamount to owning an insurance policy on your investment portfolio.
8. Protect Your Portfolio By Including 15% Gold Bullion – Here’s Why
Only about 2% of ‘investors’ actually have gold in their portfolios and those that have done so have insufficient quantities to offset the future impact of inflation and to maximize their portfolio returns. New research, however, has determined a specific percentage to accomplish such objectives. Words: 1063
9. Gold & Silver, Not Cash, Are the Ultimate Risk-free Investment Class – Here’s Why
Instead of gold, people commonly think of paper money as the only medium of exchange and as a store of value; cash is after all their unit of account. They see the gold price rising when they should be seeing the value of paper money falling.
10. What Is Gold’s Role In An Investment Portfolio – If Any?
There is a plethora of information available in all sorts of media that is negative about gold – gold is risky, volatile, a barbarous relic, and so on – but these arguments miss the point entirely, because they treat gold as an investment. To fully understand gold’s role in an investment portfolio, we need a new mindset—a gold mindset – [and HERE it is].

| One of the world’s most-viewed p****graphy Web sites is offering a new $25,000 college scholarship for a student who will be judged partially on a homemade video submission answering a single question: “How do you strive to make others happy?” P0*nhub.com, which touts 78.9 billion online video views each year, recently began accepting submissions for the scholarship as part of the site’s expanded philanthropic efforts. Washington Post reports:
“We work hard to help make millions of people feel happy every single day,” according to the scholarship Web site. “In turn, we would like to help support the recipient of the first annual P0*nhub Cares Scholarship to realize their goal of doing the same.” The scholarship offer from a prominent P0*n site immediately drew fire from feminism activist groups, which said they have concerns that the campaign is a thinly veiled ploy to exploit young women who are struggling to pay the rising costs of higher education.
Dawn Hawkins, executive director of the National Center on s*xual Exploitation, described the scholarship as a “an amazing and deceptive marketing tactic,” aimed at a vulnerable demographic: cash-strapped college students. “A lot of younger people don’t realize the consequences and harm of p****graphy,” Hawkins said. “These videos follow them the rest of their lives and affect their jobs and relationships in the future to have this out there. … It’s really unfortunate we’re forcing our kids to sell their bodies to get an education.”
A woman known professionally as Belle Knox, a p****graphy performer and Duke University student, made headlines around the world after another student at her school outed her. Knox, whose real name is Miriam Weeks, later took part in a documentary describing her path to p****graphy in part to help pay her crushing college tuition debt.
Corey Price, vice president of P0*nhub, acknowledged that the scholarship could be considered controversial, as p****graphy’s rampant spread across the Internet has long drawn debate about its role in society and how people view women. Price said that “if you’re against p****graphy and an anti-p****graphy crusader, this is probably not the scholarship for you.” | OTHERS |

Women's groups from seven countries agree to work together and share expertise. Images of refugees desperate to reach Europe come to us daily on our TV screens, newspaper pages and Twitter and Facebook feeds. We see images of desperation and tragic death when the journey to safety and new beginnings is cut short by the waters of the Mediterranean, or in a truck abandoned on an Austrian motorway. While European politicians debate whether we should call these people 'migrants' or 'refugees' and try to decide who is worthy to call Europe their home, far less media attention is given to the situation in the countries these refugees come from. That is unfortunate, not least because away from the cameras there are brave activists who, at risk to their own lives, are working tirelessly on finding ways out of violence and striving for peace, security and justice. These brave women and men work to address the root causes of the refugee crisis and they deserve our attention and support. In an effort[...]

| Lauri Parks in 2008 is sworn in as Grand Rapids city clerk by Mayor George Heartwell.MLive file photo GRAND RAPIDS, MI – A $1 million lawsuit filed by fired Grand Rapids city clerk Lauri Parks against the city and its mayor was dismissed Wednesday by U.S. District Judge Janet Neff. Parks, who was appointed in 2008 and fired five years later, sued the city and Mayor George Heartwell alleging that she was fired because of the city's "pattern and practice of eliminating women and minorities from Defendant's workforce," the lawsuit said. Parks is the granddaughter of Grand Rapids' first African-American mayor, the late Rev. Lyman S. Parks. Her annual salary was around $95,000. The city contended that her work performance led to her firing. Her position is one of four that serves at the will of the City Commission, which makes the appointments. "Ms. Parks' performance evaluations were negative beginning at least as early as the evaluation of 2011," attorney Laura Amtsbuechler, representing the city, said in her motion to dismiss the case. She said two city commissioners began working with her to improve her performance and suggested that she seek guidance from outside advisers and other appointed officials. She did not, the city said. In September 2013, after a third year of unsatisfactory evaluations, she was offered the opportunity to resign with six months of severance pay or take another job with the city, Amtsbuechler said. Parks did not respond to a deadline and she threatened legal action, the city said. "It is a matter of public record that Ms. Parks has been replaced by an African American female, Darlene O'Neal, who had served as Deputy Clerk during Ms. Parks' service as the Clerk," Amtsbuechler wrote.

| Looking at breaches in information systems and Cyber Crime the focus of the perpetrators is always aimed at our data. The goal is to copy, modify or even destroy the core of our business. Data protection serious business and you need to take serious measures to prevent unauthorized access.
Almost half of all organizations experience data breach in the past year. And a lot of these breaches originated from within the companies network. (the exact numbers vary a bit but the rough idea stays the same). This means that unauthorized people gain access to this data via the (mis)use of privileges or by gaining access through the account of someone with more privileges. It is an illusion to shield a database via one point of access and prevent breaches by guarding the “official” data connection string used by the “official” application. Over the life-cycle of the application new connections get added, external sources gain access to the database and even the financial controller connects to the system via a direct JDBC connection in his personal Excel spreadsheet ( I know from personal experience).
Protect your data via a solid solution
MySQL is the second most popular used database system. These systems contain critical and vital information supporting the primary activities of an organization. Let alone the privacy and compliance consequences when this data is breached. How can you ensure that your MySQL databases are protected against external attacks and misuse of information while achieving regulatory compliance? You can write code to secure your connection and protect your data or have a very strict access protocol in place. These measures rely unfortunately on enforcing the rules passively. You have to be aware of them to use them. What we need is an implicit solid solution to protect our data. A system that is always available and shields the whole system from access. Oracle has developed a lot of best practices and techniques for shielding off your data against breaches and security threats. Similar options are now available for MySQL database. The most important is the database firewall.
Database Firewall
The most impressive feature of MySQL security is the Database Firewall. The firewall works with a fairly simple process. You record the queries on a certain database system for a certain time-frame and then add the queries to a white-list. After this period you lock the firewall and the system only allows these queries and rejects all others. This means that the spreadsheet Controllers are less a threat to data leakages. Since they only allow them to get the data they need and not the whole schema. (It is my personal opinion that connecting excel to a database via JDBC is fundamentally wrong).
Via the database firewall you limit the queries executed on the system to the legitimated list and avoid SQL injection. Technical background about the MySQL Database Firewall is available in this excellent blog by Tony Darnell .
Source:https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/firewall.html
Do you want additional information on MySQL security. Then I can advise the following documents from Oracle and the video by Mike Frank of the MySQL team.

| Compiled by Thomas Baldwin, 9/11/2015
Included in this blog are two very important recent posts about the nature of damage done to buildings in NYC from the 9/11 attacks in 2001. Architechs and Engineers for 9/11 have provided an excellent film showing evidence that Building 7 was demolished from explosions planted to implode the building. These are competent professionals who are not promoting a conspiracy but explaining that we were not told the truth by our government!
Published on Feb 24, 2015
This is the original video that YouTube took down, without notice, on or about Feb 20, 2015 - which left the following notice for those who follow one of thousands of locations of the YouTube link out there on the internet:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature... Embedded below.
"This video has been removed as a violation of YouTube's policy against spam, scams, and commercially deceptive content"
Which makes no sense whatsoever given the scientific evidence that this documentary sticks to. Of course we are appealing the action to the extent that we can and will take legal steps as well.
The video had over a Million and a half views prior to be taken down.

In addition this article was published by Paul Craig Roberts on his website on 9/10/2015:
9/11 Fourteen Years Later
Millions of refugees from Washington’s wars are currently over-running Europe. Washington’s 14-year and ongoing slaughter of Muslims and destruction of their countries are war crimes for which the US government’s official 9/11 conspiracy theory was the catalyst. Factual evidence and science do not support Washington’s conspiracy theory. The 9/11 Commission did not conduct an investigation. It was not permitted to investigate. The Commission sat and listened to the government’s story and wrote it down. Afterwards, the chairman and cochairman of the Commission said that the Commission “was set up to fail.” For a factual explanation of 9/11, watch this film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsoY3AIRUGA&feature=youtu.be
Here is a presentation by Pilots For 9/11 Truth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Laaq44SDgg Embedded below
Here is an extensive examination of many of the aspects of 9/11:http://www.luogocomune.net/site/modules/sections/index.php?op=viewarticle&artid=167
Phil Restino of the Central Florida chapter of Veterans For Peace wants to know why national antiwar organizations buy into the official 9/11 story when the official story is the basis for the wars that antiwar organizations oppose. Some are beginning to wonder if ineffectual peace groups are really Homeland Security or CIA fronts?
The account below of the government’s 9/11 conspiracy theory reads like a parody, but in fact is an accurate summary of the official 9/11 conspiracy theory. It was posted as a comment in the online UK Telegraph on September 12, 2009, in response to Charlie Sheen’s request to President Obama to conduct a real investigation into what happened on September 11, 2001.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/celebritynews/6177194/Charlie-Sheen-urges-Barack-Obama-to-reopen-911-investigation-in-video-message.html#disqus_thread
The Official Version of 9/11 goes something like this:
Directed by a beardy-guy from a cave in Afghanistan, nineteen hard-drinking, coke-snorting, devout Muslims enjoy lap dances before their mission to meet Allah.
Using nothing more than craft knifes, they overpower cabin crew, passengers and pilots on four planes.
And hangover or not, they manage to give the world’s most sophisticated air defence system the slip.
Unfazed by leaving their “How to Fly a Passenger Jet” guide in the car at the airport, they master the controls in no-time and score direct hits on two towers, causing THREE to collapse completely.
The laws of physics fail, and the world watches in awe as asymmetrical damage and scattered low temperature fires cause steel-framed buildings to collapse symmetrically through their own mass at free-fall speed, for the first time in history.
Despite their dastardly cunning and superb planning, they give their identity away by using explosion-proof passports, which survive the destruction of steel and concrete and fall to the ground where they are quickly discovered lying on top of the mass of debris.
Meanwhile in Washington
Hani Hanjour, having previously flunked Cessna flying school, gets carried away with all the success of the day and suddenly finds incredible abilities behind the controls of a jet airliner.
Instead of flying straight down into the large roof area of the Pentagon, he decides to show off a little.
Executing an incredible 270 degree downward spiral, he levels off to hit the low facade of the Pentagon.
Without ruining the nicely mowed lawn and at a speed just too fast to capture on video.
In the skies above Pennsylvania
Desperate to talk to loved ones before their death, some passengers use sheer willpower to connect mobile calls that would not be possible until several years later.
And following a heroic attempt by some to retake control of Flight 93, the airliner crashes into a Pennsylvania field leaving no trace of engines, fuselage or occupants except for the standard issue Muslim terrorist bandana.
During these events
President Bush continues to read “My Pet Goat” to a class of primary school children.
In New York
World Trade Center leaseholder Larry Silverstein blesses his own foresight in insuring the buildings against terrorist attack only six weeks previously.
In Washington
The Neoconservatives are overjoyed by the arrival of the “New Pearl Harbor,” the necessary catalyst for launching their pre-planned wars.

| Yesterday was officially the first day of fall, and many racing series are getting ready to wrap things up for the winter, even if there’s still a race or two left on the schedule. For Callaway Competition, not only does the 2016 racing season mean a fresh schedule, but also a brand new car to break in and drive to victory as the seasoned Z06.R GT3 prepares to retire.
On October 3rd, Callaway Competition will unveil its all new Corvette C7 GT3.R in Hockenheim, Germany for the 2016 ADAC GT Masters.
Many of you probably haven’t heard of the ADAC GT Masters series, and there’s a reason for that as almost all of the races are run in Germany itself. Launched in 2007, the series tackles tracks like the Nürburgring and Hockenheimring, though it also runs an event at Assen in the Netherlands. Callaway Competition took the championship in 2013 with the Z06.R GT3, but it’s ready to move onto the C7 generation of Corvettes in a bid to stay competitive.
Not that the Z06.R is doing terrible, having snagged four podium finishes despite being in its tenth year of service. But Callaway has actually been developing the C7 GT3.R since 2013, pausing the project during GT Convergence talks. With those complete, work can finish up, and the new C7 competitor will break cover early next month. The C7 GT3.R will incorporate lessons learned from its predecessor, and with two years to finely tune its work, we have high expectations for Callaway Competition in 2016. | SPORTS |

| September 3, 2015 We're told from a very early age that patience is a virtue. However, very few of us are ever really shown or taught how to be patient. Patience is not something we have; it is something we consciously do. Patience is like any other hard-earned discipline: The more we practice it, the more patient we become.
Related: How Patience and Good Timing Paid Off for This Super Hot Startup
To be successful, we need patience when it comes to employee relations, business negotiations and communications, as well as achievement of the strategic goals we've set. Further, we have to remain calm amid the big and small twists and turns that come with life. It is only through being patient that we can truly learn from the curveballs which get thrown in our path.
Here are eight benefits of practicing patience:1. Positive rewards
Impatience is a habit, and so is patience. When we lack patience, we are unable to delay gratification for more than the moment, which fills us with frustration. Frustration is the emotional energy that drives “quitting.” When we're impatient, we're unable to work toward our business goals in a dedicated fashion. We start to quit in order to start again, and we run this pattern over and over.
Changing a habit requires strong motivation. We have to be guaranteed rewards that will come from adopting a more mature response. Patience can reward us with positive recognition, greater sales, increased customer satisfaction, stronger profits or a promotion we seek. Whatever the measure of realization looks like, surely it is the sum total of patience plus hard work.2. Smart decision-making
When it comes to making good decisions, patience is your most formidable resource. Many people in business are looking for an edge over their competition and ways to improve their performance. If this is you, don't be disillusioned enough to believe that sharp business plans and the best talent around are a substitute for the virtues needed to guide and direct a business in the right direction.
Patience is one of those virtues. When we are patient, we stay out of the negative stories that can cloud our judgment. “What-iffing” ourselves with disastrous outcomes is typically human, but also completely destructive to our capacity to make sound decisions. When we are patient, we have the mindfulness to stop and focus on the present moment. By being in the moment, we are able to make wise choices that take the big and small picture into account.
Related: 3 Occasions Where Patience Is Key3. Builds reputation
Successful businesspeople set themselves apart from the rest of the pack by mastering the skill sets which lead to success. Patience gives us grit. It gifts us the ability to work steadily toward our goals. And when we reach our goals consistently, we build our reputation. Great reputations are developed through persevering, not giving up.
It is when we persist, despite the odds, that we achieve the desired levels of success we seek. Any endeavor that could potentially become a great success requires us to dedicate ourselves to a long, hard effort. This is only a possibility when we are patient with our progress, no matter how fast or slow it goes. So, strive to be the last businessperson/company standing, and others will see you as accountable, dependable and their first choice for someone to conduct business with.4. Self-possession
Patience puts us in direct control of ourselves. And there is no more powerful an aid to success then self-possession. When we are patient, we give ourselves time to choose how to respond to a given event, rather than get emotionally hijacked by our emotions. It allows us to stay gathered no matter what is happening. With self-management we build trust in our capacity to deal with whatever comes our way.
A lack of success or progress can almost always be boiled down to a lack of patience. The most basic reason for impatience is a lack of control. When we lack control, we lack understanding and insight. When we lack understanding and insight, we lack the ability to plan, communicate and set realistic expectations. But when we claim control over these issues, we get to bask in the rewards patience can deliver.5. Tolerance
Patience increases our threshold of tolerance. It gives us the foresight to expect obstacles on our path and to deal with them diplomatically. When we expect challenges, we respond with more courage, strength and optimism. We understand that emotional discomfort is a part of any obstacle and accept that life’s curveballs are a natural part of the business cycle; therefore, we don’t add any additional suffering, bitterness or revenge to the mix. Instead, we roll up our sleeves and do the work we need to do.
The more easily we roll with the punches and learn to tolerate the quirks of other human beings and the unpredictable ebb and flow of the cycles of success, the less stress we experience and the more resilient we become.6. Hope
Patience brings hope. It brings a continued renewal of belief in our desired goals and in the heights we are striving to achieve. When we are hopeful, we have a natural resilience and willingness to keep trying because we trust in the possibility of a good outcome.
As we succeed, slowly but surely we come to understand that delay doesn’t equal denial.7. Positive team culture
Being patient gives way to remarkable results. The main focus and priority of any businessperson, leader or company should be the attitude or emotional tone of its culture. If the culture of our business is right, all of the other elements required for success, such as great customer service, will just happen. Developing a culture of engagement can be realized only through a patient devotion to what you are trying to achieve.
Being patient, then, increases our chances of achieving what we want. When we are patient, we are better people, managers and business leaders. With patience we treat other people with a sense of decency, which in turn increases the possibility they will respond in kind.8. Excellence
Patience develops excellence. Talent is long-earned patience. At the core of every true success is an awareness of the difficulties inherent in any achievement and the confidence that by persisting and being patient, something worthwhile will be realized. In this way, genius is nothing but a greater propensity for patience.
We fulfill our potential with patience. Through patience we are able to offer our distinctive mark of excellence to the world. This is no small thing, for the world desperately needs the best of what each of us has to offer.
Building a brand and reputation takes time. We cannot plant a seed and expect it to flower overnight. Success always begins with patience and the commitment to put in the due diligence necessary for excellence.
Yet patience is not easy to come by. Be the type of businessperson who is making sound decisions based upon solid values rather than impulsive reactions. Patience is the one virtue that serves us as businesspeople well. Patience takes time and conscious effort to master, but impatience can lead to our demise. As Thomas Edison said, “Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”

| The head bankster thinks the country is looking for a "dealmaker." WSJ has the details:
One of Wall Street’s top executives sought to explain Donald Trump’s surprising appeal as a presidential candidate, noting the real-estate developer and reality-television star may have tapped into voters’ longing for more dealmakers in Washington.
“We’ve put together a country that lets everyone into Washington with an absolute pledge not to compromise on anything,” Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s chairman and chief executive, said Wednesday during a talk at The Wall Street Journal’s “Viewpoints” executive-leadership series in Midtown Manhattan. “And then Trump comes along and talks the language of dealing.”
Mr. Blankfein, a Democrat, stopped well short of endorsing Mr. Trump’s run. Some of Mr. Trump’s statements, the Wall Street executive said, are “wacky.” And the image of Mr. Trump “with his finger on the button blows my mind,” he added, drawing laughter from the audience.
Yet his candidacy may signal voters are ready to support politicians who are willing to compromise and “get the best deal for my set of positions.”
“Nobody who listens to him thinks he’s ideologically stuck on the most extreme position,” Mr. Blankfein said of Mr. Trump.
An avid reader of history, Mr. Blankfein went back to the early 1800s when an unconventional candidate named Andrew Jackson won the presidency.
“What must people have been thinking when he got elected?” he said of Jackson, an “unkempt and noisy” populist from the woods who ended the line of establishment candidates in the nation’s highest office. “Could that be happening now?
“We’re being kind of dismissive of things. But people must’ve dismissed that.”
When asked if he could live with Mr. Trump in the White House, Mr. Blankfein demurred: “I didn’t say that.” | POLITICS |

| by Terry Pratchett
I have enjoyed reading several Pratchett novels but this little "fairytale for all ages" was not one of them. Early on I thought first- or second-graders would giggle shamelessly if their teacher were to read this to them but closer to the end I realized they would be as bored as I was.
There were a lots of vocabulary words to talk about poo or going poo, such as doing one's business. And I suppose there was even occasion for learning new things, such as hippos whirling their tail around so as to splatter the poo as far as they can to mark their territory. This would be especially memorable if the children could watch a video in science showing such a thing.
That said, I would suggest not bothering with the book. Talk to your husband, children, or grandchildren to learn what there is to know about poo. It dawned on me as I wrote that last sentence that Pratchett is from England so maybe the husbands, children, and grandchildren over there don't talk about these things in polite company. Thus, the need for this book. | ENTERTAINMENT |

| If you’ve got time and a sense of adventure, ultra-luxury line Silversea just might have the once-in-a-lifetime trip you’ve been looking for.
As part of their Silversea Expeditions brand of luxury adventure cruising, the line has created five special Grand Expeditions – journeys that combine two very different luxury expedition cruises along with a land adventure to create one massive experience.
Guests from onboard Silversea’s Silver Galapagos explore Caleta Tagus, Galapagos, Ecuador at sunset. Silversea is now giving guests the opportunity to book two back-to-back expedition voyages paired with an overland tour. Photo © 2014 Aaron Saunders
These Grand Expeditions begin with a weeklong cruise in the Galapagos Islands aboard Silver Galapagos , Silversea’s dedicated Ecuadorian expedition vessel. Launched in 2013, the ship was heavily refitted in 2013 and 2014 to better tailor it to the needs of Silversea guests. She sails alternating Western and North-Central Galapagos Island itineraries departing roundtrip from Baltra .
Following the voyage aboard Silver Galapagos , guests are then treated to a land adventure through South America before they embark Silversea’s other expedition vessel, the luxurious Silver Explorer .

These five Grand Expeditions range in duration from 18 to 34 days, and each include a different voyage aboard Silver Explorer . Sailings include voyages to Central America, South America , and Antarctica – the pinnacle of all expedition cruising.
“Our Grand Expeditions offer a unique blend of overland adventure combined with two amazing expedition cruise experiences — all expertly curated by our destination experts,” said Kristian Anderson , Silversea’s senior vice president and general manager for the Americas.

Voyages include all landside hotel accommodations, land tours, return air travel between mainland Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands; intra-tour air travel, ground transportation, and charter flights to Ushuaia, Argentina for connections to Silver Explorer ’s Antarctica voyages, if applicable. Pricing incorporates cruise fares for both voyages at 20 percent off the individual published rate.
So where can you go? The full list of Grand Expeditions for 2015:
Latin American Delights / 18 Days / October 1 – October 19, 2015
Silver Galapagos will explore the western Galápagos Islands, known for spectacular volcanic landscapes, penguin spotting, and snorkeling. Guests enjoy a post-cruise overnight stay in Guayaquil and then fly to Panama to embark Silver Explorer. Sailing from Colón to Guayaquil, guests will witness amazing wildlife, float up river in the Darien Jungle, and discover the beauty of Colombia’s Pacific coast. ( Combines expedition voyages 8537 and 7522 .)
South American Sojourn / 25 Days / October 8 – November 2, 2015
Genovesa Island’s Great Darwin Bay, formed by a collapsed caldera, and Española Island’s abundant wildlife highlight this north central itinerary of Silver Galapagos . A two-night, post-cruise stay in Guayaquil features an afternoon tour of the city before guests embark Silver Explorer . Voyaging from Guayaquil to Valparaiso, guests will be immersed in the unique cultures and landscapes of Peru and Chile. ( Combines expedition voyages 8538 and 7523 .)

Frigatebirds, Ice Fields & Fjords / 23 Days / October 22 – November 14, 2015
Genovesa Island’s Great Darwin Bay, formed by a collapsed caldera, and Española Island’s abundant wildlife highlight this north central itinerary of Silver Galapagos .

| Thanks to director and veteran animator Genndy Tartakovski (best known for creating Cartoon Network shows like Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack and Sym-Bionic Titan), Hotel Transylvania 2 is a joy to watch. His artstyle is in the classic animation method of exaggeration, allowing his characters' bodies to bend and snap back at a moment's notice. And instead of showing a character run from one side of the room to the next, they just zip over in a streaking blur. This was a method Chuck Jones liked to employ in the old Looney Tunes shorts to keep the pacing of the cartoon faster. Tartakovski has studied this classic style well, and it's quite fascinating to see this style represented in CG. When so many studios are going for photo realistic artwork and settings, he is not afraid to embrace the old traditions of animation.
But how is the movie itself? Much to my surprise, I think I liked this one a little bit more than the original film from 2012. It's faster, tighter paced, and I laughed more. The first movie hit a nerve with kids by understanding that children are fascinated by monsters. It was a cute, but not exactly memorable, animated film that went on to become a surprise hit. This sequel opens things up a little bit more, by allowing the monsters to interact with the human world. I liked this idea, and I also liked how the filmmakers expand on the world of the monsters in this sequel. There's an extended sequence where the characters visit a summer camp for vampire children that's kind of inspired in its satire. The camp has become so overly safe and sanitized, and the counselors are so driven to not have anyone get hurt, that it takes on an absurdist quality. Heck, this scene alone could inspire its own movie, as I think there are a lot of comedic possibilities surrounding a summer camp for vampires.
The plot, as expected, is merely a hook for which to hang a lot of visual gags, but it works well enough here. As we rejoin concerned parent and monster hotel manager, Count Dracula (voice by Adam Sandler), he has given his blessing for his vampire daughter Mavis (Selena Gomez) to marry her human lover, Jonathan (Andy Samberg). Just one year later, the young couple give birth to their first son, Dennis (Asher Binkoff). Dracula is a proud grandparent, but as young Dennis approaches the age of five, he becomes concerned that the kid's fangs haven't grown in yet. There is talk that Dennis may actually take after his dad and be a human, rather than a vampire. Getting desperate, Dracula sends Mavis and Jonathan off to California in order to spend time with Jonathan's parents, who have never been comfortable with the idea of their son marrying a monster. While they are gone, Dracula heads out with his friends the Frankenstein's Monster (Kevin James), Wayne the Wolfman (Steve Buscemi), Griffin the Invisible Man (David Spade) and Murray the Mummy (Keegan-Michael Key, stepping in for CeeLo Green from the first film) in order to help Dennis become a monster.
At its core, Hotel Transylvania 2 is not far removed from many of Sandler's live action films. It serves mostly as an excuse for him and a lot of his acting friends to be silly and have a good time. The difference here is in the screenplay, which is credited to Sandler and Robert Smigel. Unlike a lot of his recent live action output, the gags actually work most of the time, and the chemistry between the actors is genuine, and it doesn't feel like everyone's cashing a paycheck. Just two months ago, in my review of Sandler's summer misfire, Pixels, I commented on how he looked deflated and lifeless up there on the screen. But here as the cartoon Dracula, not only does he get laughs, he manages to build a fairly well-rounded performance as well. This voice over performance may be some of his best work in years, and I mean that in the best way.
The supporting monsters get some good moments, too. I liked the chemistry between Sandler, James, Buscemi, Spade and Key in the central roles. They work well off of each other, and each get at least one funny individual moment. I especially enjoyed the running gag where Spade's Invisible Man character kept on trying to convince his friends that he had an invisible girlfriend with him at certain times. The movie is really at its best when its just cutting loose and letting these actors play off each other. When it tries to become plot-oriented during the last 20 minutes or so, the movie slows down, but not enough that it hurts the film. The movie manages to be fast-paced, often funny, and I'm sure it will be an instant hit with young kids. Most importantly, accompanying adults will find themselves laughing along with them at certain times. There's even a refreshingly small amount of bodily fluid humor, which is kind of different for a Sandler production.
Compared to animated films like Inside Out or When Marnie Was There, Hotel Transylvania 2 is still fairly minor, but it's entertaining enough to stand out. There was no doubt walking in that this movie was going to prove to be a big hit with kids. But, walking out, I realized I enjoyed it a lot more than I had anticipated. I wouldn't even mind seeing these characters again, as long as Tartakovski again brings his animation skills along.

| It was Blind Squirrel-Broken Clock Promo Night in Seattle, as David Murphy was slotted into leadoff, something he had done in only 12 other games in his MLB life. And it worked!
Get used to it. Mike Scioscia put David Murphy into the leadoff spot last night, mostly based on the idea that Murphy has more RBI's against Felix Hernandez than anybody else in Major League Baseball. The fact that in his entire career Murphy had only batted leadoff in 12 other games. 18 total Plate Appearances. 13 total at-bats. 4 career hits.
Well, it worked. On the upside, we got a much-needed win out of that move. On the downside, we can expect Sosh to use last night as a reason to leave Murphy there the rest of the season.
So here, enjoy some Lucky Links...

Angels Baseball
Huston Street: Word comes out that Street came down with flu-like symptoms on Sunday, and that he has needed a couple of days to recover. Supposedly, he was throwing up in the bullpen prior to his appearance. The jokes write themselves here. I am superfluous. But, for the worried, he is due back tonight...........
Cattle Call: Arte is opening the floodgates to the GM search. The names are adding up so fast that soon they will be needing to do all that interviewing via Twitter. With the additions of (how many have YOU heard of???) Ross Atkins, Tony Clava, Hal Morris and Mike Hazen we are up to 7 so far. To me, all these names sound a lot like "Dick Walsh"..........
David Murphy: Murphy must be impressed by Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm. Or In'N'Out locations every 5 miles. Or maybe he took advantage of the OC beaches. because in his very short time here he has already decided that he wants Arte to pick up his option so that he can stay. But here we go. The luxury tax discussions get in the way. I'll leave it to you to figure out if this outcome is a good thing or a bad thing............
Matt Shoemaker: Shooey threw a simulated game yesterday and reports are that he looked great, well enough that he might start this weekend against Minnesota. Maybe we need to try this "simulated game" thing on some of the other starters in our rotation?..........

Elsewhere in Baseball
Drip: Some things are just not supposed to happen. Things like coming back from 3 runs down on your final strike of the game against a dude who swears that preventing just that event in that situation is the only thing you are even allowed to ask him to do. Or...this....having a multi-million dollar stadium with a retractable roof to protect the people inside (who paid for it) from rain, dump rain on the people inside (who paid for it)..........
Boom: Alex Rios of the Kansas City Royals hit a home run. It happens. And after his home run fireworks were shot off to celebrate. That happens too. Too bad for Mr. Fireworks Setter Offer that all this happened in Cleveland............
Stockpiling: The Rangers made a run at Stephen Strasburg last winter?? When you look at the players who moved to teams like the Astros, Rangers and Royals at the trade deadline, and you add in discussions like this, you have to wonder why Anaheim is now so far out of the mainstream in team building/tuning? Even the Padres powered up. Well, at least they tried. It's becoming a theme. Why does it feel like everybody else is playing with a fuller deck of cards than us?............
OMNI: MLB fan voting awards marches down the trail blazed by The People's Choice Awards and MTV. Seriously. "Best Trending Topic"???...........Throwing out batters at first base is common. But right fielders are only supposed to be this in Little League...........This fan tried to catch a foul ball and - boink! - clearly needs to wear glasses. Oh, wait. He WAS wearing glasses.............Here's an idea that's time has come. Arte should mimic this gold watch as a lifetime pass idea. Instead of granting a pass to Ebbets Field, which no longer exists, he should offer it up for Anaheim Stadium, which already doesn't exist.............Anybody have any idea why the unimaginative and unromantic Angels franchise refuses to allow marriage proposals via the Jumbotron in Anaheim?
How much it costs to propose at every Major League Baseball stadium. pic.twitter.com/NpjYOdTQ4g

| Last night, I listened to the sound of the gecko. He loves me. He loves me not. He loves me. He loves me not. He loves me. You don’t have any idea how much each stop or pause of the gecko can affect me. I feel some tightening in my stomach as I lay still thinking of you. I came here by way of Kialeg, where I heard about a new bike trail being carved in one of the mountain barangays in time for the approaching local festival. I learned about the B’laan community in a village called Tagaytay. On my way home, he stopped by the roadside, fiddled with his phone and gave me your number. I couldn’t resist taking it. The number would bring me a step closer to you, a proximity that is fret with risks or dangers, depending how I would use it. I noticed the way he slumped his shoulders. I kept thinking of what I should (or should not) do with your number. With each sound of the gecko, I keep thinking of you. He loves me, he loves me not. He loves me. He loves me not. I lie still in utter darkness until I drifted off to sleep. | OTHERS |
