This is an Application Brief and does not contain a detailed Experimental section.
This application brief demonstrates that the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System is optimized for lowest extra-column band spread, enhancing the separation quality for both high resolution and high throughput UPLC separations. The importance of these improvements will be shown for both impurity analysis and ballistic gradients.
The low dispersion characteristics of the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System allows you to take full advantage of sub-2-μm particles, whether you require higher throughput for your analysis or higher resolution in your separations.
The improved peak capacity and resolution possible for separations utilizing columns packed with sub-2-μm particles has been demonstrated for many applications, resulting in dramatic improvements in resolution and throughput. However, achieving the maximum resolution possible for a given separation requires that system dispersion be minimized. Any fluidic line or connection that is part of the system flow path post-injection will contribute to extra-column band spread. This includes the injection valve, solvent pre-heating assembly, connecting tubing, fittings, and the optical flow cell. Many vendors have tried to improve UHPLC system dispersion compared to HPLC predecessors, but with limited success. While dispersion may have been reduced, it still has not been optimized to take full advantage of narrowbore UPLC columns (2.1 mm I.D.). The lower flow rate requirements of these columns deliver greater return on investment against the cost of analysis per sample, providing that efficient separation with sufficient resolution can be obtained.
The ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System was optimized to reduce extra-column band spread in each of the contributing components post-injection. Newly designed UV Detector flow cells use the same optical path as their ACQUITY UPLC predecessors so the same high sensitivity is achieved; however, fluidic lines and connections have been re-designed to further reduce band spread. The use of active solvent pre-heaters is necessary to minimize the temperature gradients that contribute to on-column dispersion effects. Therefore, the volume of the solvent pre-heaters has been minimized to ensure that the sample plug is delivered to the head of the column with minimal distortion while still providing excellent solvent heating characteristics even at high temperature and high flow.
The ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System can be configured with two Sample Manager options depending upon your laboratory's needs. Whether using the fixed-loop (SM-FL) or flow-through needle (SM-FTN) injector, dispersion in the injection mechanism has been minimized with low volume needle ports, connection lines, and internal valve channels. Typically, less extra-column band spread is observed on fixed-loop injector designs due to a reduction in the volume of the injector flow path. By optimizing every component, extra-column band spread is significantly lower than any other commercially available LC system. Table 1 summarizes the band spread values obtained across multiple vendors' systems (including UHPLC systems).
The ACQUITY UPLC family outperforms all other systems when it comes to maintaining the integrity of high resolution separations by reducing band spread to 9 μL on the ACQUITY UPLC H-Class System and as low as 5.5 μL on the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System. The reduced system dispersion can be directly translated into increased resolution on the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System. Separations can be pushed to ballistic gradients that maintain the resolution found in typical analytical gradients. The separation of a series of anesthetics analyzed in 10 s with a 4 Sigma peak capacity of 46 is shown in Figure 1. Even with these rapid analysis times, performance is maintained with a standard deviation for retention time as low as 12 ms. The reduced system dispersion is also realized in high resolution separations such as impurity analysis. Figure 2 shows an impurity analysis of tetracaine. This separation, run under the same conditions on the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System and the UHPLC system from Vendor B, achieved significantly better resolution on the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class. Vendor B's system, configured with their recommended 60 mm pathlength flow cell, showed such significant band spread that the shoulder peak could not be detected.
The ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System delivers unparalleled performance for today's most challenging separations. The flexible system configurations have minimized extracolumn band spread to achieve optimal separation performance on UPLC columns, whether your laboratory's separations require increased resolution or increased sample throughput.

Upon checking my facebook page today, I realized I never made a blog post yet for our short trip during last February's Panagbenga Festival, so to account our little spree with Baguio's Flower Festival I wrote this one. Its better late than never right?
Our eagerness to experience the Panagbenga Festival in Baguio City just started last year when I and Flori read post updates about the upcoming festival. We were so excited…until the actual day didn't met our expectations. Yes, Pity us! We had planned to wake up early, dress up and show up happy for the float parade but unluckily we didn't made it. Flori did have a scheduled concrete pouring on the night before the event. I also had project billings and reports to do so we both returned to our accommodation late at night. Haha so this was the big fat reasons why we haven't seen the float parade we've been always wanted to see. Some things just happened unexpectedly just like this, but it's all right, maybe it's not yet our time ;)
But a happy soul still made our day to experience Panagbenga Festival even so badly we haven't seen the float parade. There was a display of all the floats at Melvin Jones Grandstand near Burnham Park. At least at the grandstand we've seen those lovely and colorful floats. Here are some of the floats at the grandstand.
We also used our spare time to visit Burnham Park and tried to eat some of those mouthwatering street foods.
In case you like to know :) Panagbenga Festival or the Festival of the Flowers of Baguio is an annual festival in Baguio held throughout the month of February. Panagbenga the word means, "during the growth, flowering period." Aside from different lovely flowers being displayed and presented during the festival, bright bursts of fireworks, night markets, street dancings, concerts, float parade and more are also being showcased.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has arrived in Russia for his planned meeting with the country's President Vladimir Putin.
Pictures show Kim stepping out of his green private train at a station in the eastern city of Vladivostock on Wednesday afternoon.
Kim and Putin are expected to meet on Thursday, but do not plan to sign any agreements or make a joint statement, CNN reported.
North Korean state news agency KCNA said Kim had left the capital of Pyongyang on Wednesday at dawn and travelled to Russia by train, just as he did for his summit with US President Donald Trump in Hanoi, Vietnam.
The journey from the train station in Khasan, near the North Korean border, to Vladivostok took about nine hours.
After crossing the Russian border, Kim stopped at the Khasan station where was presented with flowers as well as bread and salt — a Russian tradition for welcoming guests.
The Russian region of Primorsky reported on its official website that Kim was 'happy to be on Russian soil'.
The meeting between Kim and Putin comes at a significant time, after an impasse in talks between Kim and President Trump over North Korea giving up its nuclear weapons.
Analysts say that Kim's meeting with Putin could be a way for the young North Korean leader to assess his diplomatic options outside talks with the United States.
The dictator is hoping for Russian support in pressuring Washington over sanctions relief.

The Club / El ClubInternational Feature Film Competition
Breaking the rules of a proper Catholic life leads Father Lazcano to a residence of excommunicated priests who atone for their sins in a house at the edge of a seashore village. The inhabitants are in the custody of a nun who is both their warden and accomplice, and they spend their days training dogs for illegal races. The investigation of a sudden tragic event triggers exploration into the past, soul-searching, and examining today's Church which prefers to deal with its problems far from the public eye. The brilliantly narrated story explores the issue of guilt and punishment, and focuses on the relationship of faith and homosexuality, pedophilia, and other hushed topics. With its hypnotically constricting imagery, the film balances black comedy and chillingly disconcerting drama which critiques more than just the institution of the Church. The fifth film of Pablo Larraín, today's most distinctive Chilean director, won the Grand Jury Prize at Berlinale and was nominated as Chile's representative for Oscar for the Best Foreign Language Film.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - As much as 5 percent of the population past the age of 70 could develop a type of memory loss known as mild cognitive impairment every year — far more than previous estimates, U.S. researchers reported on Monday.
The numbers rise to 7 percent for those older than 80, the team at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, found.
"If we extrapolate these findings to the baby boomers, who are aging into the period of risk, we're talking about a significant number of individuals who may become cognitively impaired in the very near future," Dr. Ronald Petersen, the neurologist who led the study, said in a statement.
"Consequently, if we don't find a cure or treatment to delay the onset of Alzheimer's disease, we're going to be overwhelmed by the burden of these individuals on the health care system."
Peterson's team was studying 2,000 people past the age of 70 who started out normal and healthy. Every year, more than 5 percent had enough loss of mental function and memory to be diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment, known as MCI.
"The rates that we had found are considerably higher than we had anticipated," Peterson said.
MCI is defined as having memory problems — more severe than occasionally or even regularly losing car keys — slower thinking and a reduced ability to learn. Memory problems might include missing regular appointments or activities.
MCI is a first step toward Alzheimer's, an incurable disease that has few treatments and the leading cause of dementia, Peterson told the Alzheimer's Association International Conference on Alzheimer's Disease in Chicago.

Welcome to What's Trending In Payments – a weekly look at the most popular, irreverent and important stories the payments industry had to offer over the past five days. Which companies grabbed the most headlines – for better or for worse – this week, and which topics have the industry abuzz with intrigue, laughter or disbelief? Featuring breakdowns from the PYMNTS.com staff and commentary by Karen Webster, here's our take on what all of you payments peeps thought.
Pinterest Steals Facebook's eCommerce Crown
Why It's Hot – Facebook has long been the perceived as the social platform that would help deliver more eCommerce to masses, but in just four years, Pinterest has edged it out to reach number one.
Karen's Commentary – Not surprising. Eighty-four percent of Pinterest users are women with an average income of $100k – an AVERAGE income of $100k – and we all know that women do the shopping. They are the big spenders – oh, and Pinterest doesn't have to convince users that the world (or most importantly their husbands…) won't find out that they just bought that red ponyhair bag with grommets from Burberry. Put a in Pin in that one …
PYMNTS Commentary – Our big takeaway? This proves that King Facebook isn't bulletproof after all, and that the social space might just have more room for the taking. Kind of makes you want to give up being a doctor, doesn't it?
Top Tweet – @smclt – "Facebook is about brand awareness Twitter = info sharing Pinterest = ecommerce Instagram = storytelling" @SamAShepard #smclt
VCs See Double With Twin Loop Fundings
Why It's Hot – We were seeing double yesterday when it was revealed that Loop and Loop commerce both received new funding rounds, and the release had us checking more than a few facts before the dust settled. Could a battle of the Loops be near?
Karen's Commentary – Well, it's a very good thing that we weren't out of the loop on this one … hehe
PYMNTS Commentary – While both Loops seem promising, we're giving the edge to Loop over Loop Commerce. Online gifting is nice, but cracking mobile payments? That's a gift that keeps on giving.
Top Tweet – @jameswester – A Mobile Wallet Game Changer $10 million funding announced http://bit.ly/1jSAV3O — WADR to @JimMarous, same game. No change.
Homeless Coder Releases Feel Good App Of The Season
Why It's Hot – Because if you were thinking your excuse for not having a mobile app was a good one, you were wrong.
Karen's Commentary – Reading this story made me want to thank the guy who dedicated his time to helping his homeless protégée learn a skill. And to scream at those who used the power of the media to criticize him for not doing "enough." Like they've probably done so much – or anything – themselves. There will always be people who live in those glass houses and keep throwing stones because they know no other way, what a shame for them.
PYMNTS Commentary – Not only does this go to show the power the mobile, but doesn't everyone love a heartwarming story in time for the holidays?
Top Tweet – @sanjay – teach a man to code (not fish) and he can help change the world. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/leo-the-homeless-coder-finished-his-app–and-you-can-download-it-right-now-195026043.html …
New PYMNTS Report: Preventing Financial Crimes Playbook – July 2020
Call it the great tug-of-war. Fraudsters are teaming up to form elaborate rings that work in sync to launch account takeovers. Chris Tremont, EVP at Radius Bank, tells PYMNTS that financial institutions (FIs) can beat such highly organized fraudsters at their own game. In the July 2020 Preventing Financial Crimes Playbook, Tremont lays out how.

5 Amazing Things to Do in Rishikesh for Women Travelers
The pristine nature– fresh air and the warmth of golden sunshine enkindles the soul, the melodious chants and hymns elevate the spirits, the picturesque Himalayan backdrop refreshes the senses, the alluring temples are a charmer, and the adventure sports provide thrilling feelings — this is Rishikesh, India — a plateful of two worlds.

There are endless things to do in Rishikesh and with such diversity, it becomes difficult to select what to see and what not to do. Therefore, I have compiled a list of the top five things to do in Rishikesh.
Come and explore the town of Rishikesh
1. Adventure Sports
Rishikesh is one of the hottest hubs of the wanderers and the venturesome. With amazing landscapes, scenic beauty, and gushing Ganges between the rocks forming mighty rapids, Rishikesh, India, is ideal for thrilling sports. Some of the top adventure activities include:

Very rare for me to get giddy with excitement about this sort of thing, but quite honestly I'm really quite giddy :) . Absolutely love all the Pre-Heresy stuff - find it much more interesting than anything else WH40k-wise really. Not that I'll ever play the game again, but all the lovely background material...drool.
Go nicely with my Horus Heresy big book!
I loved the 40K pre-heresy stuff also, the book where a great read, that will not be repeated easily. The game I will never look back on, over rated, over priced and your never finish with buying. But the background is where the rule, not seen that with any other company jet.
Have to see what this book brings, but I fear it is just anther cash-cow.

Anxiously Eager
Keith from East Jordan called in one of his pet peeves: anxious and eager being used as synonyms. He pointed out that they should be more scrupulously distinguished.
Anxious comes from a Latin verb that means to be in distress, almost to the point of choking up. By its nature, it originally indicated concern, anxiety, and dread. Thus, say some commentators, you might be anxious about receiving the results of a medical exam searching for cancer, but you would not be anxious about what you will receive as a Christmas present; you would be eager to know that.
Today, eager seems to be a more positive word than anxious, in spite of the fact that it started life meaning biting, sharp, or severe. It indicates keen anticipation, impatient longing, and avid expectation.
However, there is a historical fact that needs to be taken into account. As early as 1743, anxious was already being used as a synonym for eager. Robert Blair wrote of "The gentle Heart Anxious to please." So the blurred lines are not new. They came into existence over 250 years ago, and writers have been using the two interchangeably ever since. In the light of such continuous usage, it is difficult for me to assign rigid meanings dogmatically.

The hurricane with no name threshed across the Atlantic coast in mid-September 1713, ripping at tobacco crops and sending panicked colonists inland, where the storm's destructive power found them. "Ships were drove from their anchors far within land, particularly a sloop in North Carolina was drove three miles over marshes into the woods," one observer wrote.
By then, the Spanish mustangs had already made a home on North Carolina's thin, boomerang-shaped Outer Banks for two centuries, passing down cyclone-survival skills to foals for generations that have spanned the state's earliest European settlements.
And now, with Hurricane Dorian whipping a path toward the barrier islands, residents and tourists have been advised to evacuate and seek shelter.
But the horses will stay and ride it out like they have since the 16th century - with their "butts to the wind," the Corolla Wild Horse Fund said.
"They go to high ground, under the sturdy live oak trees to ride the storm out," said the nonprofit group, which helps manage and conserve the few hundred horses that roam the extreme northern and southern edges of the nearly 200-mile stretch of sand-swept barrier islands.
A herd manager will remain on a rescue ranch on the northern edge of the island in Corolla, the group said, after stocking up on hay, grain and water, and ID tags braided into their manes will help track them should they break free.
Origin legends for the mustangs have persisted nearly as long as they have found a home on the islands and thrived in the salty marsh.
They are thought to be descendants of horses that swam ashore after the shipwrecks that ringed the Outer Banks with such frequency that it has been called "the Graveyard of the Atlantic."
Others believe they were simply abandoned by the Spaniards after various violent clashes with Native Americans and English settlers.
In 2010, the Spanish mustang became the state horse of North Carolina, even as conservationists feared their future was far from certain.
Their numbers, once in the thousands, have been whittled down to a few hundred, and they are imperiled by disease and human expansion. But since they are nonnative species, they don't meet some criteria for federal endangered-animal protection, CBS News reported.
In short: The wild mustangs may not survive another five centuries. But if they ever disappear, it's unlikely that a hurricane will be the culprit.

Arkansas is in communication with big man Bradley Ezewiro, and an official visit might happen in the near future.
Assistant coach Clay Moser visited Oak Hill Academy in Virginia to check on Arkansas point guard target Khalen Robinson and Ezewiro on Monday.
"He's telling us we would be good together and we would like playing with each other and we could be like kings of the SEC," Ezewiro said.
Ezewiro, 6-9, 270 pounds, transferred to Oak Hill from Bishop Montgomery in Torrance, California, for this upcoming season. He reportedly has offers from LSU, Tennessee, Virginia Tech, Arizona State, TCU, New Mexico and others.
He is impressed with the Razorbacks' recruitment of some highly rated guards.
"I know they're recruiting Moses (Moody), KK, Kyree Walker," he said. "We can recruit a massive recruiting class. We could be, like, crazy."
Ezewiro averaged 9.9 points and 5.1 rebounds per game while shooting 50% from the field for the Oakland Soldiers in the Nike EYBL action over the spring and summer.
He said he plays physical and has a good midrange game and the ability to score with his back to the basket.
"I'm powerful, I can dunk through contact, finish through contact," Ezewiro said. "Any kind of contact doesn't seem to really bother me. I can just finish at any time."
Coach Eric Musselman visited the school last week.
"They want to see if they can get me on an official with KK," Ezewiro said. "They still have to talk it over as a staff."
Ezewiro has officially visited LSU and plans to visit New Mexico on Thursday. He hopes to visit Arkansas for the Auburn football weekend Oct. 18-20.
"After that I'm probably going to go to Tennessee," he said.
He wants a coach that can elevate his game and help him get to the NBA.
"A coach that's going to push me to be the best I can be," he said. "Coach Muss told me a lot of bigs came through Arkansas. He helped a lot of bigs."

pricing items by weight
Since this is your slow time, and I'm sure you are looking for things to keep you busy :), I wanted to ask for an upgrade to the order form. We sell mostly meat and cheese, which is priced by the pound, rather than by the item. Is it possible to add some flexibility to the website to enter an actual weight? We currently use an estimated weight, and then have to change the price when we sell an item and have the actual weight. It would be much more convenient to be able to have the price per pound entered, and just enter the actual weight. Also, we are using the store for shipping, and mostly shipping via FedEx. Will the FedEx rate calculator ever work with SFC? Thanks,
Hi Rebecca:
We've talked with various farms over the years about ways that we might be able to create a better system for items sold per pound that weren't sold in exact ounce or pound interval weights.
The 2 systems that make the most sense are:
1) The system you currently using where you put the item up at a "target" weight and cost and adjust accordingly when packing the specific cuts.
2) The other option would be to pre-weigh specific cuts and add inventory for each cut and enter the specific price for each so the customer can decide if they want the 1.9 lb or the 2.2 lb cut and pay accordingly.
The first has a bit more work on the packing side and the second has more work on the front end. We haven't had any ideas that made sense and that would be functionally easy to implement that solved this problem.
As for the FedEx shipping calculator, it is currently not something we are supporting. They made some changes so their previous calculator no longer works with our software and unfortunately the demand for this feature is low, so i'm not sure when this feature will be re-added.

Taiwan shares close higher led by Apple concept stocks
Taipei, Sept. 11 (CNA) Shares in Taiwan posted moderate gains Wednesday as major Taiwanese suppliers to Apple Inc. moved higher in the wake of the launch of the next-generation iPhones overnight, dealers said.
However, turnover was capped with many investors sidelined, as market sentiment continued to be cautious about trade tension between the United States and China, although the two countries have agreed to resume talks in October, the dealers said.
The weighted index on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE), or Taiex, ended up 36.77 points, or 0.34 percent, at 10,790.35 after moving between 10,746.87 and 10,815.59, on turnover of NT$119.20 billion (US$3.82 billion).
The market opened up 0.32 percent on a technical rebound from a session earlier, when the Taiex closed down 0.44 percent, and momentum continued to push up the index to the day's high with Apple concept stocks in focus after the U.S. consumer electronics giant introduced its newest iPhones overnight, the dealers said.
But with the main board breaching the 10,800-point mark, some selling set in to limit the upturn and drag down the Taiex below that level by the end of the session, they added.
"Technically speaking, there has been heavy technical resistance ahead of 10,800 points," Concord Securities analyst Kerry Huang said. "Since turnover was moderate today, it was unlikely for the main board to make a breakthrough after fluctuating in a narrow range throughout the session."
Huang said the bellwether electronics sector continued to serve as a driver to the gains on the broader market Wednesday.
"Thanks to the introduction of the new iPhones by Apple overnight, investors rushed to pick up major Taiwanese suppliers today amid hopes that the peak-season effect will boost their shipments," Huang said.
Apple unveiled two high-end iPhones -- the iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max -- along with the cheaper iPhone 11 to replace the previous models of the iPhone XS, XS Max and XR, respectively. Global sales are scheduled to begin Sept. 20 and Taiwan is one of the markets to sell the new devices in the first round of sales worldwide.
The bellwether electronics sector ended up 0.55 percent.
Among the gaining suppliers to Apple, contract chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), which is said to supply processors for the new iPhones, rose 0.57 percent to close at NT$263.00, with 36.17 million shares changing hands.
On Tuesday, TSMC reported that its consolidated sales for August hit a new high of NT$106.12 billion, with analysts attributing the growth largely to an increase in orders placed by Apple.
Other major Apple concept stocks also moved higher on the new iPhone debut, with iPhone assembler Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. up 0.54 percent to end at NT$74.50, metal casing maker Catcher Technology Co. up 2.86 percent to close at NT$233.50 and smartphone camera lens supplier Largan Precision Co. up 3.31 percent to end at NT$3,900.00.
"Foreign institutional investors kept buying into local equities to push up the Taiex, although the gains were limited," Huang said. According to the TWSE, foreign institutional investors bought a net NT$6.42 billion-worth of shares on the main board Wednesday after a net buy of NT$2.27 billion the previous day.
Huang said that with the tech sector dominating Wednesday's session, old economy stocks were largely in the doldrums throughout the session.
Among the old economy stocks, food brand Uni-President Enterprises Corp. fell 0.26 percent to close at NT$76.80 and Formosa Petrochemical Corp. lost 0.52 percent to end at NT$96.50.
In the financial sector, which closed up 0.16 percent on rotational buying, Shanghai Commercial & Savings Bank rose 1.48 percent to end at NT$54.80 and Fubon Financial Holding Co. added 0.11 percent to close at NT$44.95, while Cathay Financial Holding Co. ended unchanged at NT$41.40.
"The trade dispute between Washington and Beijing remained a major concern to investors at home," Huang said. "But the silver lining is that the local equity market has been awash in liquidity, so any major pullback is unlikely for now."

IT'S felt like a marathon more than sprint at times but we've finally reached the finale of Euro 2016.
Great games have been few and far between and that's down to the increase in teams and too much caution shown by coaches playing not to lose.
Hosts France have battled through more comfortably than Portugal and will face in Paris on Sunday night.
I tipped Les Bleus on the anteposts and they've only suffered a couple of minor scares on their way to the Final.
Now it's pragmatic Portugal v flamboyant France and home advantage should help see Didier Deschamps's side across the line.
France have been the best team throughout the tournament but Portugal have proved impossible to beat and tough to break down.
I'm backing the favourites at 21-20 with McBookie and bet365 to win in 90 minutes and 4-9 at William Hill and Ladbrokes to qualify. Portugal are 15-8 at bet365 and 15-4 at Ladbrokes respectively while a draw in 90 minutes pays 11-5 at Ladbrokes and McBookie.
Either team to win on penalties pays 4-1 at Skybet and either to lift the trophy by winning in extra time is 13-2.
France weren't brilliant in their semi-final against Germany but did enough to win. Deschamps will be pleased at the clean sheet after conceding two against Iceland while Antoine Griezmann has the Golden Boot wrapped up after a double took his tally to six.
He'll be eyeing up No.7 against CR7 and Co and is 7-4 at Ladbrokes to net again. Griezmann has looked sharp in the past few games and I'm on the Atletico Madrid ace to net first at 9-2 at bet365.
Ronaldo needs to net three more than Griezmann to make it a top-scorer dead heat. That pays 66-1 but isn't going to happen.
Critics are saying Portugal are the worst side to reach the Final since Greece won, ironically against Portugal in Lisbon in 2004, but that's harsh.
Portugal boss Fernando Santos coached in Greece for eight years and managed the national team for four so it's no surprise his side play like the 04 champions.
There's one difference though – he has a matchwinner and superstar in Cristiano Ronaldo. The Real Madrid star hasn't been brilliant in France but has three goals and scored one and created one in the semi-final success against Wales.
Portugal brushed Wales aside with ease and can't be underestimated but France should be fine as long as they keep Ronaldo quiet.
People said Wales were a one-man team – and they weren't because Aaron Ramsey was sorely missed by Gareth Bale and his team-mates in the semis.
But Portugal rely so much on Ronaldo they let him do everything. He still takes every free-kick and still misses them all – in a sense he's taken the burden of Portugal winning a trophy solely on his broad shoulders.
Ronaldo is 11-2 at McBookie to break the deadlock as he did against Wales and 23-10 to net at any time.
His powerful header is probably giving Deschamps nightmares as he's almost unstoppable in those situations. Portugal have attempted more crosses per match (30) than anyone else in the tournament and are likely to have plenty of joy against ageing full-backs Backary Sagna and Patrice Evra.
Ronaldo is 10-1 to net with a header while Olivier Giroud is favourite in this market at 8-1.
Deschamps left out N'Golo Kante against Germany after he missed the Iceland win through suspension but I expect to see the Leicester star restored to the starting line-up.
France went with a 4-4-2 against the Germans and were dominated in midfield so Deschamps is could revert to 4-3-3 and if Kante can gain control against the likes of Renato Sanches he might win the man-of-the-match award. That pays 25-1 at McBookie while Griezmann is 9-2 favourite ahead of 5-1 Ronaldo.
Keep Ronaldo and Sanches quite and France will win this – possibly to nil at 19-10 with McBookie.
Recommended Bets
France to win to nil
Griezmann to score

text: From COTA last Saturday. During Q2 (qualifying for poll position in MotoGP) Marc Marquez pits for a rear tire change. They have trouble getting the bike started but he makes it back on the track. Here's where the video starts. Once on the track he gets a warning light, parks the bike propping it up near the end of the pit wall, jumps the 5 foot pit wall, sprints flat out through the pits for 42 seconds and jumps on his backup bike with 2:36 left on the Q2 clock. What does he do? He sets a new ******* lap record @ 2:02.135! Damn you Dorna Sports


text: 1. Use mobile boarding passes Pretty much all airlines allow you to check in online and to download your boarding pass onto your mobile phone or screen shot your itinerary including confirmation numbers. Super easy when you need to scan it or show it! The less stuff you have on you, the better! 2. Create a packing list Use the app 'Wunderlist' to create packing lists or use a Travel Checklist. With "Wunderlist" you can easily mark items you've already packed, check it when packing to return home, and it allows you to save a list for your next trip. It's easy to add items or to cross them out if you don't need them. Perfect! 3. Leave early Try to be at the airport at least two hours in advance. Yes, even when you've already checked in online. Leaving extra early helps ensure you will board your plane on time. Between traffic, weather, and other unforeseen occurrences leaving early is always smart! 4. Keep your personal belongings with you Make sure to put your personal items in your carry on, bag, or backpack (preferably underneath the seat in front of you). Personal items to keep with you If it's important, keep it with you. Paperwork, money, medications, jewelry (just wear it and keep it simple), earbuds, an extra set of underwear, and if headed to the beach a swimsuit. Don't leave your things unattended and check if you still have everything before you land. 5. Include in your carry-on Headaches happen, stomach issues occur at the worst times, and motion sickness when flying can all make travel miserable. Don't forget your daily meds like prescriptions, I always pack enough for one extra day just to be safe. Knowing you've got everything you need with you is a comforting idea! 6. Make sure your passport is up to date Your passport has to be valid for at least another six months from the date that you start your trip. 7. Bring a nice book Or a magazine, or some music… Whatever helps you relax and destress! 8. Make sure to bring a credit card or an international bank card Another small but important detail: don't forget to check if you can use your bank card abroad. Notify your bank and credit card provided with the places you will use your cards along with the dates that should be authorized. 9. Contact your phone provider to confirm what your cell phone plan covers Knowing the when, where, and how you can use your phone is crucial. Most airports, hotels, and resorts provide access to wifi helping you stay in touch with the world when needed, just remember to be safe when using public online services. 10. Bring an ink pen! Know information about all the people you will be responsible for when traveling out of the country. The head of the household will have to complete paperwork, usually on the plane, before landing. You will be expected to list the names of people you are responsible for, passport numbers, and any personal property over $10,000. You will also need to know the name of the resort you're staying in, dates of your trip arrival and departure, purpose of travel, and flight numbers for both arrival and departure.

1277. Clarification regarding applicability of section 269T to amounts kept by agriculturists out of sale proceeds with commission agents
1. Section 269T of the Income-tax Act provides that no company, co-operative society or firm shall repay to any person any deposit otherwise than by any account payee cheque or account payee bank draft where the amount of deposit and interest thereon, if any, is Rs. 10,000 or more.
2. The Direct Tax Laws (Amendment) Act, 1987 has amended the definition of "deposit" for the purpose of section 269T of the Income-tax Act. Under the amended definition, the said term has been defined to mean "any deposit of money which is repayable after notice or repayable after a period and, in case of a person other than a company, includes deposit of any nature".
(The italicised portion has been added by the said Amendment Act.)
3. A number of references have been received by the Board seeking clarification whether the sale proceeds of agricultural commodities, left over by the agriculturists with their 'Kachcha Arhatiyas', would also come within the ambit of deposit of any nature necessitating its payment by an account payee cheque as provided under section 269T of the Act.
4. The Board is of opinion that where a 'Kachcha Arhatiya' sells goods belonging to an agriculturist, the sale proceeds thereof which remain with him cannot be regarded as a deposit made by the agriculturists with the 'Kachcha Arhatiya'. Further, whether the 'Kachcha Arhatiya' remits only a part of the sale proceeds to the agriculturist, the unremitted part of the sale proceeds would also not assume the character of a deposit. Therefore, the repayment of such sale proceeds does not fall within the purview of section 269T of the Act.
5. However, such unremitted sale proceeds would assume the character of a deposit if the amount is retained by the 'Kachcha Arhatiya' in pursuance of a direction in this regard by the agriculturist, irrespective of whether the amount is retained in the same account or transferred to different accounts and irrespective of whether the directions are to call it a deposit or just to retain the same for future payment. The repayment in such cases will be covered under section 269T of the Act.
Circular: No. 556, dated 23-2-1990.
n The above circular was relied upon in Harpal Singh Jaswant Singh v. ITO [1995] 126 Taxation 12 (Trib.), and it was held that the provisions of sections 269SS and 269T were not attracted to the facts of the case. (pp. 20-21)

Author: Colm Tóibín
Information about the author.
The Master
Like Michael Cunningham in The Hours, Colm Tóibín captures the extraordinary mind and heart of a great writer. Brilliant and profoundly moving, The Master tells the story of Henry James, a man born into one of America's first intellectual families two decades before the Civil War. James left his country to live in Paris, Rome, Venice, and London among privileged artists and writers.
In stunningly resonant prose, Tóibín captures the loneliness and longing, the hope and despair of a man who never married, never resolved his sexual identity, and whose forays into intimacy inevitably failed him and those he tried to love. The emotional intensity of Tóibín's portrait of James is riveting. Time and again, James, a master of psychological subtlety in his fiction, proves blind to his own heart and incapable of reconciling his dreams of passion with his own fragility. …[more]
Brooklyn: A Novel
It is Enniscorthy in the southeast of Ireland in the early 1950s. Eilis Lacey is one among many of her generation who cannot find work at home. Thus when a job is offered in America, it is clear to everyone that she must go. Leaving her family and country, Eilis heads for unfamiliar Brooklyn, and to a crowded boarding house where the landlady's intense scrutiny and the small jealousies of her fellow residents only deepen her isolation.
Slowly, however, the pain of parting is buried beneath the rhythms of her new life—until she begins to realize that she has found a sort of happiness. As she falls in love, news comes from home that forces her back to Enniscorthy, not to the constrictions of her old life, but to new possibilities which conflict deeply with the life she has left behind in Brooklyn.
In the quiet character of Eilis Lacey, Colm Tóibín has created one of fiction's most memorable heroines and in Brooklyn, a luminous novel of devastating power. Tóibín demonstrates once again his astonishing range and that he is a true master of nuanced prose, emotional depth, and narrative virtuosity.
The Blackwater Lightship: A Novel
- 2001 IMPAC Dublin shortlist
- 1999 Booker shortlist
- Score: 12.51
A beautifully written, deeply resonant story about three generations of an estranged family reuniting to mourn a tragic, untimely death—from the author Nick Hornby called "one of the most promising novelists writing in the English language."
It is Ireland in the early 1990s. Helen, her mother Lily, and her grandmother Dora have come together, after a decade of estrangement, to tend to Helen's beloved brother, Declan, who is dying of AIDS. Under the crumbling roof of Dora's old house in Ireland, Declans' two friends join the women as each waits for the end. All six of them, from different generations and with different beliefs are forced to plumb the shoals of their own histories and to come to terms with each other.
In spare, luminous prose, Toibin explores the nature of love and the complex emotion inside an unhappy family. The Blackwater Lightship is a novel about morals and manners, and the clashes of culture and personality. But most of all, it is a novel about stories, and their incomparable capacity to heal the deepest wounds.
The Testament of Mary
- 2013 Booker shortlist
- Score: 6.63
From the author of Brooklyn comes a short, powerful novel about one of the most famous mothers in history.
In a voice that is both tender and filled with rage, The Testament of Mary tells the story of a cataclysmic event which led to an overpowering grief. For Mary, her son has been lost to the world, and now, living in exile and in fear, she tries to piece together the memories of the events that led to her son's brutal death. To her he was a vulnerable figure, surrounded by men who could not be trusted, living in a time of turmoil and change.
As her life and her suffering begin to acquire the resonance of myth, Mary struggles to break the silence surrounding what she knows to have happened. In her effort to tell the truth in all its gnarled complexity, she slowly emerges as a figure of immense moral stature as well as a woman from history rendered now as fully human.

Hi everyone. Last night as I was laying in bed about to fall asleep I was feeling thankful that I felt physically well. This past year was crazy with lots of ups and downs with health stuff. I totally took my good health for granted before that.
So, while thinking about how thankful I was I suddenly had the most obvious epiphany. The secret to a good life on Earth is focusing on what is good in your life, and NOT focusing on what is bad.
I know that this is a simple idea but that is not how I have lived my life up until now. I have been doing lots of gratitude this past year and have experienced outstanding results. However, I was still focused on what was wrong in my life. I thought a lot about how to fix problems.
Last night I realized that these problems are none of my business. I should never be focusing on them. I think I could have created the life I wanted 20 years ago by streamlining my thought process to focus on what I was grateful for all day.
Gratitude is easy and complicated. The reason for that, or at least the way that I was doing it was all wrong! I was dedicating a portion of my week to doing gratitude. This works wonders but the other part of my week was spent on other and less positive thinking. We all know by now that what you focus on creates more of the same.
My life really is quite amazing now so there are less problems to focus on but Ascension gave me much to reflect on in that department. Today, each time that my mind would go into fixing or thinking mode I corraled it back to that thought of how great I felt last night.
I reminded myself how thankful I was last night. You can also just stop and remind yourself all day long to simply say thank you but this reflecting on how good I felt last night felt more powerful than saying thank you.
I know that things are intense but there has to be at least one thing that you are incredibly thankful for each day. Just focus on that all day and you can gradually train yourself to be in that energy all the time.
It is worth it because gratitude is as powerful as love and because you are working against yourself when you are angry or worrying about problems.
It feels really good to focus on what you are thankful for. It has not been hard to train my mind to do this either. This was not hard to remember. I usually forget to do things like this.
My Guides said that you can actually heal or fix things this way as well. They showed me a highway with 8 lanes that was gradually thinning down to one or two lanes. This was a metaphor to represent issues being healed one by one with gratitude. Happy Holidays!
I love you guys.

Do you have solar on your roof? Are you happy with your choice of system? Why/why not?
We have solar water panels but that fills our roof! We have a small house in the UK, we love to have PV panels but we don't have the room. We had the solar water panels installed twelve years ago and they have saved us a lot of money and we have been really pleased with them.ReplyDelete
It's great that your solar hot water panels are saving you money and that you are still happy with them after more than a decade. Such things are not only great for supporting the environment but are also an investment of your money and it's nice to see a return on that.Delete
Great points Meg. We are considering solar in NZ and it is a costly thing to get wrong.ReplyDelete
I think solar, if a family can afford it, is a great thing but it's so important to really look at the system size and whether that works for your family's patterns of energy usage. We are looking forward to the day when we can get battery storage. It's prohibitively expensive for us right now but it's predicted to come down in price over the next 5-10yrs. You must be looking forward to heading to NZ and setting up a new home there, Fiona. Thanks for visiting here. Meg:)Delete

Female squirrels with foresight have more surviving young in years of abundance
Baby boomer squirrels master tricky timing.
By KATIE WILLIS
Female squirrels who align their reproduction to take advantage of food-rich years have more pups that survive to maturity, according to new research from UAlberta biologists.
This year, spruce trees produced unusually high numbers of cones, a phenomenon that occurs roughly twice a decade.
Squirrel baby boom
"When this happens, there is enough food around to support many more squirrels than at times of low cone production," explained Anni Hämäläinen, a UAlberta biologist and postdoctoral fellow. "Any babies born on the eve of such abundance will have a much higher chance of surviving the harsh winter ahead, relying on a pantry full of cones.
Natural selection at work
"It is a prime example of natural selection due to variation in the environment," added Hämäläinen. "Female squirrels who can identify a mast year and maximize their breeding efforts accordingly have enduring legacies, as more individuals in the next generation of squirrels will be carrying her genes."
Producing and raising offspring takes a lot of time and energy. For squirrels, being a parent can shorten one's lifespan when time and energy is limited. Squirrels' ability to interpret cues from the environment that allow the parent to anticipate mast years allow them to make more informed reproductive decisions, and set their pups up for success.
The paper, "Fitness consequences of peak reproductive effort in a resource pulse system," is published in Scientific Reports.
