A good note taking system is extremely valuable. There are numerous times in any given week in which there's some piece of information I need to capture in a reliable place. The safe place for this type of information for me is Evernote. It is available on every device I use and it syncs effortlessly so I know my information will always be available. However, I have been in situations where my phone died during the evening and all of a sudden have no access to the system I use for capturing important data. Pondering this I wondered if there was some way I could leverage someone else's working phone to still capture new info I might come across during the rest of the evening. An app is not a great solution in this case since it's someone else's phone. What would be perfect would be to allow someone to text or call my Twilio number and have that use that communication to send a note to Evernote. Using some Ruby code, the Evernote API and Twilio that's exactly what we'll build in this post.
What you will need
- A Twilio account — you can sign up for one here for free.
- An SMS-enabled Twilio phone number
- Ruby
- Twilio Ruby library
- Sinatra
- Evernote API and Developer Key
- Evernote Sandbox Account
- evernote_oauth RubyGem
Getting Started With the Evernote API
Before we build our note taking on the go system we need to take a look at the objects we will be working with in the Evernote API. Take a look at this data model graphic from the Evernote Developer docs:
In our system we will be working with the Notebook, Note and Resource nodes inside of the NoteStore. Notebooks contain Notes which can contain one or more Resources. A Resource is similar to an attachment in an email and can represent things like images, audio or video. Notes must be contained in a Notebook so there will always be at least one Notebook in the NoteStore. If a Note is added without specifying a Notebook, the Note will be added to the default notebook in the user's account. Details about the properties and methods available on each of these objects can be found in the Evernote API Reference.
To use the Evernote API to access an arbitrary user's account typically would require implementing an OAuth workflow. Thankfully (because sometimes that can be a pain) we don't need to do this to work with our own accounts. During development we'll work inside of the Evernote Sandbox which is a separate server where we won't cause any harm to our actual Evernote data. Start by creating a Sandbox account. We'll be working inside of the Sandbox a lot so keep it open.
The next thing we need to create to work with the Evernote API is a developer token. We'll use this in lieu of the auth token that would usually be obtained from the OAuth workflow. This will allow us to work with our own NoteStore objects without needing to authenticate. Any API call that takes a token can receive the developer token you create in this step. Once created there's no way to retrieve it so make sure to put it in a safe place. The code we write later will retrieve it from an environment variable named
EVERNOTE_DEV_TOKEN so that would be a great place to store it:
$ export EVERNOTE_DEV_TOKEN=***Your dev token***
If you lose the dev token, you can recreate a new one later.
Now that we have an account to test with and a developer token we can begin to work with the Evernote API. Let's start by creating a Gemfile for the gems we'll be using in the project:
source "https://rubygems.org" ruby '2.2.0' gem 'sinatra' gem 'rack' gem 'thin' gem 'twilio-ruby' gem "evernote_oauth"
After creating this file, run
bundle install to make sure you have all of the gems installed in your setup. Now that the gems are installed we are ready to create our application. Create a file called
app.rb and open it in your favorite editor. To get started we'll create some helper methods for objects we will be using frequently as well as requiring the gems and libraries we will need:
require 'sinatra' require 'twilio-ruby' require 'evernote_oauth' require 'pp' def dev_token # Pull dev token from environment @dev_token ||= ENV['EVERNOTE_DEV_TOKEN'] end def client @client ||= EvernoteOAuth::Client.new(token: dev_token, sandbox: true) end def note_store @note_store ||= client.note_store end def notebooks @notebooks ||= note_store.listNotebooks(dev_token) end
dev_token is the developer token we created earlier.
client is an object we will use to get access to the objects in the Evernote API.
note_store gives us access to our Evernote data and
notebooks provides us a list of all of the notebooks in our account.
Next, we're going to build a method that creates a new note in a notebook specific to our app. To do this we're going to need to do several things: find or create the notebook and retrieve its notebook GUID, create the body of the note (which is specified in a markup language describe below), and then send the request off to Evernote. Let's tackle each part of this process with an individual method. We'll start with the method that finds or creates a notebook with a name passed in as a parameter:
def find_or_create_notebook(notebook_name) if notebooks.any? {|notebook| notebook.name == notebook_name } # Notebook exists, get the notebook GUID notebook = notebooks.find { |nb| nb.name == notebook_name } notebook.guid else # Create notebook and store GUID notebook = Evernote::EDAM::Type::Notebook.new() notebook.name = notebook_name new_notebook = note_store.createNotebook(dev_token, notebook) new_notebook.guid end end
This method checks to see if there's a notebook in the NoteStore named
notebook_name. If it exists, the GUID for the existing notebook is returned. If it does not exist, it is created and the GUID for the new notebook is returned. We'll need this notebook GUID when we create the note.
Next, let's create the body for the note. Evernote notes are created using a markup language called ENML which is a set of XML tags that define the parts of a note such as text and resources. Add the
generate_note_body method:
def generate_note_body(note_text) note_body = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>" note_body += "<!DOCTYPE en-note SYSTEM \"http://xml.evernote.com/pub/enml2.dtd\">" note_body += "<en-note>#{note_text}</en-note>" end
First we add a fairly standard XML preamble and DOCTYPE to
note_body. Then we create the
containing the
note_text passed in. If we have passed in a Resource (such as an image, sound or video file) to attach to the note we would add this to the note inline after the text (more on that in Part 2!).
The last component of our note making process is a method that we'll use to create the new note on Evernote. Add the
create_note method to
def create_note(new_note) # Attempt to create note in Evernote account begin note = note_store.createNote(new_note) rescue Evernote::EDAM::Error::EDAMUserException => edue ## Something was wrong with the note data ## See EDAMErrorCode enumeration for error code explanation ## http://dev.evernote.com/documentation/reference/Errors.html#Enum_EDAMErrorCode pp "EDAMUserException: #{edue}" pp edue.errorCode pp edue.parameter rescue Evernote::EDAM::Error::EDAMNotFoundException => ednfe ## Parent Notebook GUID doesn't correspond to an actual notebook pp "EDAMNotFoundException: Invalid parent notebook GUID" end end
Many things can go wrong in the creation of the note so we make sure to catch any exceptions that might occur. With all of the pieces in place we can finally write our
make_note method:
def make_note(note_store, note_title, note_text, notebook_name) notebook_guid = find_or_create_notebook(notebook_name) note_body = generate_note_body(note_text) # Create note object new_note = Evernote::EDAM::Type::Note.new( title: note_title, content: note_body, notebookGuid: notebook_guid ) create_note(new_note) end
This method will create a new note in your Evernote Sandbox account using the methods we have built so far. Let's try it out to make sure it's working before moving on. Fire up a terminal window and run the following from your project directory:
$ irb > require './app' > make_note note_store, "Test from irb", "Testing out the make note method to see if it creates a note in the Sandbox.", "Twilio-Evernote"
This will create a note titled "Test from irb" in the notebook "Twilio-Evernote" with the text "Testing out the make note method to see if it creates a note in the Sandbox." Head over to the Evernote Sandbox and click on the Twilio-Evernote notebook and then on the note you just created. It should look like this:
With a working note creation mechanism we're ready to take the next step: creating notes from text messages.
Adding Notes to Evernote With SMS
Before we can send text messages to our Evernote account as notes we need to set our app up to communicate with Twilio. When Twilio receives an incoming message at your phone number it will need to make an HTTP request to our app. If you want to test locally you will need to expose your localhost to the outside world. I recommend using ngrok for this. Once you have that up and running, configure the Messaging URL for your Twilio number in the numbers portal to point at your local server's
/message endpoint which we will write in a moment:
Next, let's add the
/message method to our Sinatra app:
post '/message' do message = params[:Body] make_note note_store, 'From SMS', message, "Twilio-Evernote" end
When Twilio makes a POST request on an incoming text message we extract out the text of the message. Then we use the
make_note method we created previously to create a new note in the Sandbox containing the body text from the SMS. Now we can add notes to Evernote without needing a smartphone app!
Next Steps
In this first part of a two part series we were introduced to the Evernote API. We then used what we learned to create a note using a text message. In the next post we'll add a picture to our note using MMS and create voice memo notes using Twilio call recording and transcription. While you're waiting for the next post to make its way to the blog, try a few of these things using what you've built in this post:
- Enable setting the title and notebook name in the SMS message.
- Retrieve notes from any notebook using an SMS workflow.
- Allow the user to send the note to an arbitrary notebook.
- Try this out on your actual account instead of the Sandbox.
I'm super stoked to see what you all create with Twilio so I'd love to hear about what you're working on. Hit me up on Twitter @brentschooley or through email at firstname.lastname@example.com to show me all the cool stuff you're building. See you in Part 2.

Starry, Starry Night
Children's Memorial Hospital launched its \"Heroes for Life\" initiative with an event that played off the campaign logo and took advantage of the night sky.
On Wednesday night, Children's Memorial Hospital invited 800 donors and community members to an event on Northerly Island. The evening—replete with multiple forms of live entertainment and a custom fireworks show—served as a launch for the hospital's new "Heroes for Life" campaign, which will raise funds for the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, slated to open in Streeterville in 2012.
"The main goal of the evening is to publicly announce our fund-raising campaign and the [$600 million] goal...which is one of the largest ever announced by a U.S. children's hospital," said Jennie Steffus, vice president of annual programs and events for the Children's Memorial Foundation. "We wanted the opportunity to create excitement and pride around Children's Memorial, as well as recognize and thank our key campaign donors."
To help design the event, Steffus and her team called on the support of Event Architects—the same production company that helped with the hospital's April groundbreaking ceremony. "For the groundbreaking event, fabric was the big thing," said Emily Olson, a senior account manager with Event Architects. "This time, we went with beautiful lighting."
The event took place in a tent that was divided into two sections. In the northern end of the tent, a buffet dinner from Food for Thought offered sushi, wild mushroom risotto, and beef tenderloin. "We worked with our board leadership quite a bit to settle on the type of event that would allow them maximum time to meet and greet our donors," Steffus explained. "They didn't want a sit-down dinner because it would limit them to the nine other people at their table for the majority of the evening." In the center of the tent, a frosted Lucite bar was backlit in blue to provide a glowing visual centerpiece.
The dinner spilled outside, where lowboy tables bore linens of orange, green, and blue—the same colors featured in the campaign logo. The logo's color scheme was also echoed in the floral arrangements on each table, the rock-candy swizzle sticks that adorned the evening's specialty "Superhero" cocktail, and even the paper towels beside each sink in the restrooms.
Another element of the campaign logo—a cluster of stars—set the tone for the lighting in the southern end of the tent, where a special presentation took place after dinner. As guests took their seats, a pattern of glowing stars overtook the ceiling of the tent, giving it the look of a night sky. Dennis DeYoung, a Chicago native and former member of the band Styx, started the program off with a short set of his best-known songs, including "Babe" and "Come Sail Away." DeYoung interrupted his set to tell the crowd about his personal experience with Children's Memorial: In 1980, his son was treated at the hospital, "and he's here tonight, working the lights," DeYoung concluded.
Between a series of speeches from hospital staff and major donors, a brief video showcased interviews with children who had been treated at Children's Memorial, and guests began pulling out tissues—and, in one case, a bottle of eye drops. "In that five-minute video, I felt like I really connected with each of those children," one guest remarked. "I've seen two-hour movies that don't allow me to connect with a character as much. I am definitely donating."
The presentation ended with a performance of an original campaign song, sung by Broadway star Heather Headley. As Headley sang, 35 members of Chicago's Star Bright gospel choir appeared at the back of the room, then made their way down the aisles as they sang along. Onstage, former Children's Memorial patients—some of whom appeared in the video presentation—stood holding black panels adorned with glittery numbers. When they stood in a line, the children's signs combined to spell out "$600,000,000" (the campaign goal).
The music continued into the evening's dessert reception, where blues performer Buddy Guy sang as guests loaded their plates with crepes, cookies, tarts, and chocolate from the stations. Hospital staff circulated with glowing star necklaces and urged guests to head to the lawn outside the tent, where a custom fireworks show took place. When the display was over, the crowd of guests in glowing necklaces created its own scene of lit-up stars on the dark lawn.

Two sizzling tales by two very twisted sisters…
Heart of the Jaguar by Myla Jackson
When jaguar shifter Reme Denux stumbles into his ex-girlfriend's palm reading parlor in the French Quarter of New Orleans, he's fuzzy about how he got there. The last thing he remembered was a drink at a bar and having another man's dark, sensuous dream.
As soon as Reme enters her building, Sybille can sense the black magic haze hanging over the man she still loves. With the full moon on the rise, she has to do something to save him from a death-swapping hex or lose him forever. With the help of a voodoo priestess, Sybille and Reme weather the moon's supremacy and the soul-stealing storm, forging a bond of lust and love, neither has the strength to resist.
She's All That by Delilah Devlin
Librarian by day, Melanie Bradshaw, is driven to desperation by her torrid dreams. However, when she acts on her desires, things go horribly wrong and she witnesses the murder of an overly amorous lounge lizard. With the body disintegrating before her eyes, who's going to believe her?
When Detective Moses Brown gets the latest Full Moon case, he's hoping it's no more than another crazy looking for attention—until he meets the delectable librarian. Melanie took a walk on the wild side straight into vampire territory. They know her and now she's not safe. Until he can find out why, he's going to stick to her like glue. If his own attraction gets between him and his good intentions, he'll just grit his teeth and do his best to ignore it.
But pretty little Melanie has designs on his body. How's a brother to resist?
by Myla Jackson (Delilah's Sister)
Heat radiated throughout his body as Reme struggled to open his eyes. The thrum of drums beat against the base of his skull, placing pressure on his spine, rendering his body inert, temporarily paralyzed. He couldn't move, couldn't rise from ground, couldn't force air past his vocal cords to shout out for help.
In the darkness, a low steady chant throbbed against his ears. His inner cat squalled, fighting to free him from bindings without substance. Fear, anger and trepidation spiked the hair on the back of his neck.
The cloying fragrance of burning incense and candles surrounded him, the heat and humidity of the room intensifying until sweat dripped down his forehead into his eyes, stinging.
He tried to focus, tried to move his hands, but none of his muscles cooperated. He lay completely still, as though death had claimed a part of his body.
Steadily beating drums rumbled against his ear, the rhythm increasing in tempo and volume. A monotonous chant swelled to fill the air around him, pounding against his senses. Something cool slithered across his skin, coiling around his throat and across his chest.
Reme wanted to strike out, to bellow and yell, to chase away the darkness and the invisible lashes holding him down, keeping him from moving even the muscles of his eyelids.
Release me! he shouted. His cry didn't reach any ears, even his own.
A dark, empty force pressed against him, the pressure stealing the air from his lungs, pushing at him from outside and inside until he thought his ribs and head might explode. The rotting stench of death filled his nostrils, overwhelming his mind with shadows and evil, ramming into his soul in an effort to oust his essence from his body.
Reme fought to keep the force from sucking the life out of him, refusing to give in to the undulating shadows, twisting and swirling inside his head, reeking of malevolence, and an evil so wicked and powerful, if allowed to, would steal his very spirit.
Hands slid across his naked chest, fingers touching, feeling, mesmerizing in their smooth and urgent contact. Breasts pressed against his chest, the naked tips poking him with hardened nubbins. A woman's body straddled him, her hair drifting across his face and neck, her pussy pressing against his cock, making him jerk to attention and harden. She leaned close, her breath warming his ear. "Come to me, gros-bon-ange. Rise again."
What kind of dream was this that he couldn't move, couldn't touch the body offered? Every part of his anatomy paralyzed, except his cock. Why couldn't he awaken?
Reme summoned his inner cat, urging it to rise above his human form and shift into the animal he knew he could be. Perhaps then he would awaken from this endless, sinister nightmare.
The woman atop him moved, taking him into her, sliding down to sheathe his cock with her heated channel. She rose and fell over him, her fingertips tweaking his nipples, pinching harder until pain made him want to cry out. But he couldn't.
She rocked, up and down, her toned thighs pressing into him with each thrust.
Again, a cool, thick form slithered across him, sliding between his torso and the woman's breasts. The cool scales, inching across his skin, made him shiver inside yet did nothing to chill his heated skin.
The woman tensed, her body lowering over his, her mouth hovering above his lips. "Come to me, gros-bon-ange, come to me, my Adrienne."
I'm not Adrienne, he tried to say, I'm Reme. Nothing came out, his lips didn't move. Could he be occupying another man's dream?
Darkness sucked at his feet, tugging at his arms and legs, threatening to pull him down, drown him in a sea of faceless people filled with anguish and suffering. He swam to the surface, only to be dragged under again.
Wake up, Reme. Wake up!
His chest ached with longing, his body cried out to be free, his voice remained silent, useless, lifeless.
He sank into a deep, fathomless pit, its bottom forgotten, the darkness so black it absorbed every bit of light within until Reme dissolved into unconsciousness.

Massachusetts' top court on Friday rejected Exxon Mobil Corp's bid to block the state's attorney general from obtaining records to investigate whether the company for decades concealed its knowledge of the role fossil fuels play in climate change.
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled Attorney General Maura Healey had jurisdiction to seek records to probe whether the oil company's marketing or sale of fossil fuel products violated the state's consumer protection law.
The ruling marked another setback for Exxon after a federal judge in March dismissed a related lawsuit it filed seeking to block investigations by Healey and New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman.
Exxon argued that as a corporation incorporated in Texas and New Jersey, Healey had no basis to issue a demand for documents in 2016 to conduct a Massachusetts-based investigation of whether the oil company misled consumers and investors.
But Justice Elspeth Cypher, writing for a 6-0 court, said jurisdiction existed because of Exxon's control over advertising conducted for more than 300 franchise gas stations operating under the Exxon and Mobil brands in the state.
She said Healey's probe related to how manmade greenhouse gas emissions had caused climate change, "a distinctly modern threat that grows more serious with time, and the effects of which are already being felt in Massachusetts."
Healey in a statement declared victory and said Exxon must come forward with the truth about what it knew about climate change and when it knew it.
"The people of Massachusetts - and people everywhere - deserve answers," she said.

An appellate court ordered a Joliet murderer to be resentenced because a 2009 felony conviction that was used against him was unconstitutional and void.
On Sept. 19, 2016, former Will County Judge Carla Alessio-Policandriotes found Aloysius "June" Alexander, 34, guilty of fatally shooting Johnny Lockhart, 59, during an argument that took place Dec. 6, 2014, outside Lockhart's apartment on Chicago Street.
Alessio-Policandriotes found Alexander guilty of murder, aggravated battery and unlawful use of a weapon, and sentenced him to 54 years in prison.
The 3rd District Appellate Court reversed his unlawful use of a weapon conviction Oct. 1.
The appellate court ruled that the charge was based on Alexander's 2009 conviction for aggravated unlawful use of a weapon.
The Illinois Supreme Court found a section of the aggravated unlawful use of a weapon offense to be in violation of the right to bear arms, the appellate court said.
The appellate court ruled that Alexander's 2009 conviction was void and "cannot be used for any purpose, including to increase his punishment for a new offense," and reversed the unlawful use of a weapon conviction.
The court ordered a new sentencing hearing on Alexander's other convictions because it had no indication as to what extent Alessio-Policandriotes considered the aggravated unlawful use of a weapon conviction when deciding his sentence.
"While we affirm defendant's other convictions, we remand them for resentencing because it is unclear how the court considered the [aggravated unlawful use of a weapon] conviction during sentencing," the appellate court said.

News happening around Little Rock Air Force Base
By Staff Sgt. Jeremy McGuffin, 19th Airlift Wing Public Affairs
/ Published January 30, 2018
Mobility Command is extending the life of the C-130J as they change how they
manage the fleet, ensuring more flexibility to respond to operational needs.
The Air
Force's current fleet management approach assigns platforms to particular wings
and keep them with those units through the life of the platform. This approach
gives wings ownership of aircraft, but according to Brig. Gen. Steven
Bleymaier, AMC's director of logistics, it can also lead to an imbalance in fleet
health based on how those wings use and maintain the airframes they own.
wings have different missions, so you have the same weapons system at different
wings, but at one wing, the aircraft are aging a lot faster in terms of flying
hours or the profiles that they're flying," Bleymaier said in an Oct. 28
interview at the Airlift Tanker Association conference. "What we've
learned is that when you do the analysis, perhaps that's not the best way for
the long-term health of the fleet."
The new
approach, called Total Force Enterprise Sustainment
and Modernization, aims to swap aircraft among units, as needed, to balance the way
the airframes are being used and increase longevity of the fleet. The C-130J is
a part of this new approach and the 19th AW welcomes the change as it ensures
the operational readiness of the physical aircraft, remains consistent.
William Westendorf, 19th Aircraft Maintenance squadron operations officer, said
that moving to an enterprise management approach for the C-130J allows staggering
of the heavy maintenance cycle, greatly affecting the aircraft life expectancy.
This management allows the 19th Airlift Wing to better manage the flying hour
program with a significant near-term cost avoidance, he noted.
received a completely new aircraft from the assembly line last year and in
exchange we sent one of our aircraft to Yokota AFB in Japan," Westendorf said. "This
enabled us to spread the mission requirements across the fleet which reduced
wear and tear on our aircraft."
C-130J has a number of variants, and with AMC taking care of so many airframes,
it is important to get the C-130J platform moved as quickly as possible to ensure
consistent readiness across the fleet.
"When the
Air Force added the C-130J to its fleet, they were given to Little Rock Air
Force Base and other AMC bases in succession from Lockheed Martin," Westendorf
said. "Receiving the new aircraft one after another from Lockheed Martin caused
each base's fleet of J-models to be due for depot maintenance at approximately
the same time."
This impacted
flying operations significantly because when the aircraft go through depot maintenance
it can take months to return back to operations. When the aircraft are swapped with
other AMC bases though, it staggers the depot maintenance cycle so that each
base does not have too many of its aircraft at depot all at once.
"The availability of aircraft greatly affects our ability to carry out combat operations as well as support global humanitarian efforts. We take pride in our abilities to carry out any mission or tasking when called upon providing agile combat airlift across the globe," Westendorf said.
noted that for some fleets, achieving a level of homogeneity among variants
that allows the service to swap wings may be cost-prohibitive. The transition
to the new construct, which will take some time to implement, could drive more
homogeneity on legacy fleets, improving consistent readiness.
swapping of aircraft within AMC promotes the overall health of the USAF's
C-130J fleet, which in turn enhances the USAF's global combat readiness and
humanitarian support, and we're extremely proud to be a part of that process,"
Westendorf said.

In Lightroom Classic, clicking on a folder in the Folder panel displays not only the photographs in the selected folder, but also any photographs in subfolders. This may be confusing if you are accustomed to viewing images in the operating system or in Adobe Bridge where the default view would display the photographs in the folder and folder icons for any subfolders.
To change Lightroom's default view to display only the photographs in a folder (hiding any images in subfolders) select the Library menu and disable Show Photos in Subfolders (or, on the Folders panle, click the + (plus) icon and disable Show Photos in Subfolders).
Note: With Show Photos in Subfolders off, the photo count (displayed in the Folder panel) will most likely change (because Lightroom is counting only the photos in the folder and does not include any photos in subfolders). If you store all of your images in subfolders, don't be alarmed if the parent folder displays a count of zero (because it's not counting the photos in the subfolders).

If you're here, you've probably seen banners popping up across the internet or on the streets of Chicago about the 2017 MLS All-Star Game presented by Target, and you've got questions. Luckily, we've got answers!
The 2017 MLS All-Star Game presented by Target will be played on Aug. 2 at Chicago's Soldier Field.
So let's start with the big question...
What is this?
Basically, the MLS All-Star Game is, like Major League Baseball's summer classic, an annual exhibition game featuring some of the league's best players. It's happened every year since MLS's inaugural season in 1996, though it has changed formats a couple times since then. We'll get to that later.
What's the format of the game?
Okay, we'll get to it now. In other North American sports leagues, the all-star game typically pits teams of players from different conferences.
MLS did that too – the first couple of editions saw the Eastern Conference play the Western Conference.
Then, in the late '90s/early 2000s things got really experimental. (Didn't everyone have experimental times in the early 2000s? Just look at your fashion and hair choices from then.) A few of the formats included American players vs. International players and a matchup between the MLS All-Stars and the US national team.
In 2003, the league inaugurated the format that has carried it through today: MLS vs. international clubs. That first year, the MLSers took on – and beat – Mexican giants Chivas de Guadalajara, and since then, they've taken on big-name English Premier League teams like Chelsea and Manchester United, Italian club AS Roma, and German heavyweights Bayern Munich, among others.
This year, that tradition is bigger than ever: The MLS All-Stars will face off against iconic Spanish club Real Madrid.
Are there any rule changes?
No. It's your standard 90 minutes, though there are extra substitutions allowed, as is normal for friendly exhibitions like this around the world. The only rule change is that if the teams are tied after 90 minutes, the two teams will go straight into a penalty-kick shootout.
Who are Real Madrid?
Quite possibly the most successful club in soccer history, Real Madrid are 11-time European champions and the reigning holders in the UEFA Champions League, Europe's top competition. Known the world over for their all-white kits and cavalcade of superstars, "Los Merengues" are 32-time Spanish league champions and have also won the Copa del Rey, Spain's cup competition, 19 times. They're also the official reigning club world champions, having won last year's FIFA Club World Cup, their second such triumph.
Founded in 1902, Madrid are both a history-rich institution and a modern superclub, adored by millions across Spain and around the world. Their current roster is packed with hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of elite talent like Sergio Ramos, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema. But the brightest star in the firmament is Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese attacker who has won the Ballon d'Or, awarded to the world's best player, four times.
Why is the All-Star Game in Chicago?
The game rotates every year to a new city with an MLS team. This year the match will be played at Soldier Field, former home of the Chicago Fire and a perennial host to big games from the 1994 World Cup to last year's Copa America Centenario.
The venerable Chicago landmark also has a rich MLS legacy, as it was home to the Chicago Fire for the club's first four seasons, from 1998-2001, and then again from 2003-2005. The Fire owned a 62-23-10 record (.705 winning percentage) in their home games played at Soldier Field, a span which also includes the club's three appearances in MLS Cup.
While this is the first MLS All-Star Game to be played at Soldier Field, it's the second time the MLS summer showcase has been played in the Chicago area. In 2006, the MLS All-Stars defeated Chelsea FC 1-0 in a match played at Toyota Park in Bridgeview, Illinois, with Dwayne De Rosario scoring the game's only goal.
So, who exactly is playing?
The All-Star Team features the biggest names and most talented players in MLS, which last year included US national team stars like Clint Dempsey and Darlington Nagbe, international superstars like Sebastian Giovinco and David Villa, the last two MLS MVP winners.
How are players selected?
Fans get to vote for 11 players, the Fan XI. Last year they voted for the team's captain via Snapchat and their choice?
MLS Commissioner Don Garber adds two Commissioner's Picks. Finally, the coach gets to name the final roster of 22 players.
What about the coach?
Since 2013 the host city's MLS club coach also manages the All-Star team. So this year, that's Veljko Paunovic, head coach of the Fire.
A longtime regular in Spain's La Liga – where he spent several seasons with Real's crosstown rivals Atletico Madrid – and other top European leagues during his own distinguished playing career, Paunovic played one season in MLS with the Philadelphia Union before moving into coaching. He led the Serbian Under-20 national team to a FIFA U-20 World Cup championship in 2015 and took the reins in Chicago in November of that year.
What else is going on around the game?
The short answer is: a lot. The game itself takes place on Wednesday, Aug. 2, but MLS's takeover of the Windy City starts days before. Stay tuned for more information about the events happening during All-Star Week.

Cronic Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM helped raise $1,120 for Anne Street Elementary School during a "Drive For Kids" test drive programat the school earlier this month.
A check for that amount was presented to Anne Street principal Evelyn Jones by Lee Howell, advertising director for the Cronic Automotive Group, during brief ceremonies at the school this week.
"It is a pleasure to present these much-needed funds to Anne Street Elementary School on behalf of Wanda Cronic Howell, the dealer at Cronic Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM, and all the employess there," Howell said. "For as long as I remember, Cronic has been involved in supporting our public schools and I am proud to continue this tradition."
Howell said that the "Drive For Kids" program was held in the school's front parking lot and "gave parents, staff, and friends of the school the opportunity to test drive 2013 models, including the Chrysler Town and Country minivan." He said that each test drive earned the school a contribution of $10 and that 112 people participated, including Griffin Spalding County School Superintendent Dr. Curtis Jones.
"We were happy this event was so successful and we were proud to be able to help one of our local schools raise funds," Howell said. "Last year, we helped the staff at Orrs Elementary School raise money through this program and we are looking forward to working with another school next year."
In addition to raising money for the local school, each participant was automatically registered in the 2013 Chrysler Sweepstakes for a chance to win a credit in the amount of $45,000 to be used toward the purchase of any eligible Chrysler Group vehicle, which include Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM, and FIAT.
"Drive For Kids" is a national program, sponsored by the Chrysler Corporation and its network of dealers. Since its inception, the national program has generated $5 million for schools in cities and states across America.

VICTORIA Beckham has moved to protect Brand Beckham by insisting that her husband David realises the couple are "stronger together".
In a bizarre interview in Vogue magazine the Spice Girl will try to quell months of speculation about the state of their marriage.
Tellingly, David refused to be part of the family shot on the cover, which even features their dog Olive.
But he agreed to be included in one of the pictures inside the fashion bible, after persuasion from Victoria following social media speculation that she was going to announce her divorce.
Speaking about their marriage, Victoria, 44, claims the troubled couple are "pretty used to ignoring the nonsense and just carrying on as normal".
In reference to her children — Brooklyn, 19, Romeo, 16, Cruz, 13, and Harper, seven — she says: "But these things have a wider effect on the people around us, and that's unfair."
Then the businesswoman curiously adds: "We both realise that we are stronger together than we are as individuals. Would either of us be in the position that we are in now had we not met and been together all those years ago? It's all about the family unit.
"We are much stronger the six of us, than we would be if we were individuals.
"We respect that family bond and that is key."
Where are her words of love?
THIS is a surprisingly cold defence of a marriage that has long been strained, with one crucial word missing . . . LOVE!
Like the failed Remain campaign, Victoria talks of her and David being "stronger together".
Brand Beckham is far too important to both of them to let their regular rows get in the way of a multi million-pound family empire.
But even with this elaborate Vogue shoot, the disagreements are clear for all to see.
David is concerned about how much his kids are put in the public eye by Victoria.
While he agreed to appear inside, he wouldn't join the rest of his brood on the mag cover.
- By Dan Wootton, Executive Editor
The Vogue feature — which also saw her dress up in a catsuit for a video poking fun at her Spice Girls past — was initially planned to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of her financially-troubled fashion label, which lost £8.4million last year.
But there was intense speculation about the feature after the Beckhams were forced to deny they were on the verge of splitting in June — a rumour that spread like wildfire on social media.
In the first family interview, Victoria will also reveal her daughter Harper has been wearing make-up and high heels at their home since she was a toddler.
She says: "She's been able to run in Alaïa platforms since she was three.
"On one hand, she's quite girly, but on the other hand she has three big brothers and likes to run around and play football. She's not scared of being pushed over. She wants to be an inventor."
Commenting on the magazine cover yesterday on Instagram, England legend David, 43, wrote: "So proud of everything Victoria has achieved in business being a leader but her biggest achievement is what you see in this photo."
It's hoot at vid shoot
POSH wears a PVC catsuit and clutches a phone in a jokey Vogue video poking fun at her days in the Spice Girls.
It is a nod to her outfit for 1996 hit Say You'll Be There.
Victoria also flashes a Girl Power V for Victory sign while in a dressing gown.
The star is covered in gold body paint in a further scene.
And she deadpans to camera: "We're celebrating the rich and inspiring history of one of the most enduring style icons of all time... me."
She also pretends to bicker with editor Edward Enninful.
Wearing an over-the-top gown, she says: "I'm a minimalist. Simple every time."

The Argentine attacker might not have another 700 goals in him, but his manager believes there's still plenty more to come
Quique Setien praised Lionel Messi after the Barcelona superstar scored his 700th career goal on Tuesday.
Messi celebrated the landmark moment as stuttering titleholders Barca drew 2-2 at home to Atletico Madrid in La Liga.
The six-time Ballon d'Or winner's delicate 'Panenka' penalty put Barca ahead in the 50th minute before Saul Niguez's second spot-kick ensured the points were split.
Discussing captain Messi – who has scored 630 goals for Barca and 70 for Argentina – post-match, Barca head coach Setien said: "I suppose that another 700 goals will not be scored by Leo, but he will continue to score.
"You don't know what the ceiling is for a player of this type."
Diego Costa's 11th-minute own goal had put Barca ahead before Saul's penalty restored parity for Atletico eight minutes later.
Messi converted a penalty of his own five minutes into the second half to bring up his landmark goal, but another Saul spot-kick – in the 62nd minute – secured a draw for Atletico.
Barca are one point behind leaders and rivals Real Madrid, who can move four clear with victory over Getafe on Thursday, as pressure mounts on Setien.
Setien's side have only won one of their past four league fixtures but the Barca boss said: "I'm quite happy with them [the team]. It's true that we haven't been able to win, but at times we controlled the game well.
"It's not easy against this team. They're disciplined. I'm quite happy with my players' work.
"I don't feel at all under threat. It's a shame. We're having more and more difficulties. Leaving these points behind means we're moving further away from the title. But we have to keep working and Atletico are a good team."
Article continues below
Antoine Griezmann was only brought on as an injury-time substitute on Tuesday with Setien admitting the French attacker has the potential to 'destabilise' his side.
"I understand it's tough for Griezmann to come on when so little time left. I will speak with him tomorrow, I won't say sorry because [it's about] decisions," Setien said.
"But I understand he may feel bad and I feel bad for him because he's a great person and professional."

The other Company Leaders looked towards Wei Feng. They were clearly still rather wary of Zhou Weiqing, but Wei Feng waved them away. He knew that if Zhou Weiqing wanted to harm in, he could have done so earlier. Furthermore, Wei Feng was extremely confident that he would still be of great use.
Zhou Weiqing, Shangguan Fei'er and Wei Feng returned to Xiong Guangming's tent.
Zhou Weiqing turned to him and said: "Vice Commander Wei, please inform me, what do you think the three greatest difficulties our Ruffian Battalion is facing now?"
If you force them with force/fear, they are going to be even more disloyal, ready to be deserters on the first moment of bad events
If you think like that then you really lack the power to appeal to other people. Trust can be built through time not by force.
He does want them to die in the first place, that's not his style so no she's not. He's most likely gonna make these guys do guerilla tactics and run from danger.

Thus far, I had associated biometric security with fingerprint scans and eye scans. It now appears that our posteriors might be just as unique and effective as an identifier.
The Advanced Institute of Industrial Technology in Tokyo claims that a butt-scan is 98 per cent accurate. That is the concept behind a new approach to car security.
A car-thief may be easily able to enter your car, but unless she or he is only looking to take away the music system or other gadgets, the goal is usually to steal the entire car.
To do so, the thief would have to seat himself in the driver's seat. And that's when the 360 sensors inside this concept car seat measure the force exerted by your posterior on the seat and transmit the data to an on-board computer.
Only if the analysis of the pressure data is an exact match of the pressure profile stored on the computer, can the car be driven. With emerging technology, there are always ifs and buts.
Maybe I should say ifs and butts, if you get my drift. What strikes me is how the car seat will react if I choose to be a passenger in my own car, and ask someone else to drive?
Logically, I guess it should be ok as long as that person's butt-profile is stored on the on-board computer. How easy it is to do that I do not know. The entire concept is still being developed and refined.
It may well take a couple of years for it to be incorporated into the cars you and I buy. Till then, I suppose car thefts will remain a pain in the backside.

Two apparently related non-members of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange agreed to be permanently barred from ever trading on CME Group exchanges and to remit trading profits of US $407,491 for allegedly trading on misappropriated information.
According to CME, between January 2011 and October 2012, Stuart Madden disclosed non-public order information of his employer to Paul Madden, and Paul Madden used that information to establish positions in Euro FX futures positions that he often offset through trading opposite the employer's account.
In an unrelated matter, Aardvark Trading LLC agreed to pay a fine of US $205,000 to the CME because of two incidents with its automated trading systems. CME claimed that on November 13, 2014, an Aardvark ATS did not function as intended because of "improper configuration and modification of the ATS's code" that caused the execution of 17,000 contracts in the associated legs of the Eurodollar complex. This, said CME, caused price and volume "aberrations" over a nine-second period. Also, charged CME, on "several occasions" in June and October 2014, "ATSs that Aardvark operated did not operate as intended as a result of supervisory errors," although there was no "significant" market impact.
Aardvark also agreed to pay a separate fine of US $40,000 to the Chicago Board of Trade because of alleged configuration errors and a failure to deploy self-match prevention technology that caused numerous self-matched trades, as well as price and volume "aberrations" on July 6, 2015 in the September 2015 Two-Year Treasury futures contract.
Similarly, Natixis agreed to pay a fine of US $75,000 to resolve CBOT charges that one of its automated trading systems allegedly entered incorrect orders in 29 Federal Futures contract months causing "aberrant prices." According to CBOT, at least part of the cause of Natixis' incorrect orders arose from the failure of an employee to deactivate a certain pricing tool associated with its ATS.
In addition, Noble Resources Pte. Ltd., a CBOT member firm, agreed to pay a fine of US $75,000 for engaging in pre-execution communications with a counterparty related to proposed soybean futures hedges in connection with the execution of prepaid soybean swap agreements. Under CME Group rules, pre-execution communications involving soybean futures are not permitted.
Legal Weeds: Earlier this year, a panel of the Business Conduct Committee of the New York Mercantile Exchange found that, from April 18 through December 10, 2012, Jon Ruggles, a nonmember and former trader for Delta Airlines, traded two accounts of his wife, Ivonne Ruggles, relying on confidential information of his employer in a manner that disadvantaged it. The BCC concluded that as a result, Mr. Ruggles earned in excess of US $3.3 million as a result of his unauthorized trading. In response, the BCC imposed a fine of US $500,000 against Mr. Ruggles, ordered disgorgement in excess of $2.8 million, and imposed a permanent CME Group all-products trading prohibition. (Click here for more details regarding this CME Group disciplinary action in the article, "Trader Sanctioned Over US $3 Million by CME Group for Trading on Confidential Employer Information; Both He and Wife Barred From Exchange Trading" in the June 19, 2016 edition of Bridging the Week.) Later, in September 2016, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission brought and settled charges against Mr. Ruggles for the same offense, claiming that Mr. Ruggles' conduct constituted trading on illicitly misappropriated information, and based its action, in part, on a theory equivalent to the securities concept of insider trading. (Click here for details, in the article, "Ex-Airline Employee Sued by CFTC for Insider Trading of Futures Based on Misappropriated Information" in the October 2, 2016 edition of Bridging the Week.) The disciplinary actions against Stuart and Paul Madden rely on an express CME Group rule that prohibits inducing any person from disclosing non-public trading information to another person or from taking any action based on non-public information no matter how acquired (click here to access CME Group Rule 532). However, it may not be too long before the CFTC applies the relatively new provision of law and CFTC rule that prohibits employment of a manipulative or deceptive device or contrivance in connection with futures or swaps trading that it relied on in its enforcement action against Mr. Ruggles as authority to bring an enforcement proceeding against a trader who not only misappropriates trading information and passes it illicitly to another, but also against the recipient of illicitly-obtained information who trades on it – a so-called "tipper" and "tippee" scenario. (Click here to access Commodity Exchange Act Section 6(c)(1), US Code § 9(1), and here to access CFTC Rule 180.1. Click here for a discussion of a recent federal appeals court decision regarding tipper and tippee liability under US securities law in the article, "Appeals Court Sets Aside Insider Trading Convictions Saying Traders Distance From Corporate Insiders Too Far" in the December 14, 2014 edition of Bridging the Week.)
Compliance Weeds: Generally, for approved contracts only, CME Group exchanges permit pre-execution communications to facilitate trading subject to strict requirements. Among these requirements are that the party on whose behalf a communication is made previously consented to such communication and that no person involved in pre-trade communications takes advantage of information conveyed except to facilitate the relevant trade. Other than for CBOT EU Wheat futures and options, pre-execution communications are never permitted for CBOT grain and oilseed futures at any time. Moreover, CME Group rules regarding cross trades vary by product and by futures and options. Even the mechanical steps vary for executing a cross trade following a conversation. There are Globex Crosses, Agency Crosses, Committed Crosses, and RFQ and RFC Crosses. (Click here to access the relevant CME Group Market Regulation Advisory Notice regarding Pre-Execution Communications (August 16, 2016).) However, despite the complexity, the consequences of getting it wrong can be severe, resulting in not only potential CME Group sanctions, but possible sanctions by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission too. (Click here to access the article "CFTC Fines FirstRand Bank for Unlawful Pre-Execution Discussions Related to Soybean Futures Trades" in the September 1, 2014 edition of Bridging the Week.) Most simply, all noncompetitive trades are strictly prohibited under CFTC rules, and any violation of a CME Group rule regarding pre-execution communications could also be deemed a violation of this CFTC requirement.

The former TOWIE star has been dragged into some drama with her ex and his new girlfriend. And she's set the record straight...
If you're a TOWIE fan, you'll know that there's been quite a bit of drama brewing between Danielle Armstrong and ITVBe newcomer Yazmin Oukhellou.
James Lock's new lady hasn't shied away from speaking up about Danielle, who walked away from the series following her break-up with the Essex lad. Despite the fact that she's moved on with a new romance and has a blossoming fitness business, Danielle is still finding her name being dredged up both on-screen and in the press.
See: Danielle Armstrong Gets Sucked Into The TOWIE Drama On Twitter
And, it seems, she's had enough.
Following another interview which saw Yaz branding her 'embarrassing', the 28-year-old took to Snapchat to set the record straight.
Speaking directly to camera, Danielle said that 'sometimes you have to say your side of the story.'
The reality star told her followers: 'I didn't want to discuss it, I'm so happy in my little life. I've come away from all that s*** and drama.
'But all I keep hearing on Twitter, on WhatsApp etc is "someone is talking about you again."'
See: James Lock Shares His Thoughts On Girlfriend Yaz's Spat
Speaking about the rumoured restaurant 'fight' with Yaz, Dani explained: 'Yes I was out for dinner with friends, I got the bill. I was on my way out and me and Yazmin had a few words – little bit heated, no fights, no rows. I left, end of.'
Yazmin also appears to have claimed that Danielle was inappropriate towards her ex on the night in question, saying that she had danced in front of her ex 'like a zoo animal'.
Danielle continued, 'There was that many people in there, if you think me and her were fighting, I was dancing, twerking over my ex, do you not think someone would have videoed me? In the industry we're in now, yes they would…'

Latest Stories
This Snapchat rant came after Yazmin gave an interview to OK! magazine about Danielle, after weeks of drama on The Only Way Is Essex.
Will it all end here? We'll just have to wait and see…

Introducing KLAMP
A bottle opener that doesn't look like one.
Over the weekend five members of team Firebrand competed in Start Up Weekend Dunedin on some exciting product based projects. One of those was KLAMP which placed second overall. Consisting of Alex, Georgina, Tony, Anton and Bekah.
Team KLAMP spent the weekend turning our creative skills to something a bit more physical than usual. We drilled metal, filed edges, made patterns to sew and learnt about fabric strength. A huge thanks to Steve at Dunedin Print, Darren from Moran Fabrication, Trevor from RCR Energy Services and Mon and Jeff from BEATS Clothing. We also came up with a solid business case, here's a summary:
The Problem.
Current bottle openers are bulky so often left at home meaning DIY methods are required. Whether it's teeth, arms, other bottles or lighters these opening approaches can be dangerous.
70% of New Zealanders drink. That's 940,000 bottles needing to be opened each year!
The Solution.
KLAMP is a bottle opener that attaches to your apparel. The focus - make it a fashionable extension of your outfit so you never leave the house without it. No more key bulk or awkward pocket bulging.
The Markets.
Brands - we'll work straight with brands to produce their unique KLAMP for selling in retail. We dream of working with stores such as Barkers or companies such as Emersons.
BEATS Clothing are keen to start their own range of KLAMPs and sell to their 30k following.
Promotional Companies - we'll supply Print and Promo companies with plain KLAMPs ready for them to brand for their clients.
Konstruct are interested in buying 5,000 units!
The Brand.
Key to the success of KLAMP is our marketing. We'll start with prominent brand ambassadors who are highly active on the feeds of our potential users. Think the likes of Johnny Danger or Leigh Hart. We'll continue to tell the story on social through video - our first teaser video is live. Thanks Paul for your production and editing genius.
What Next?
We're now looking to gauge interest and connect with people who have contacts or are keen to stock. Visit our Pledgeme to pre-order and help meet the target of $3,000 to get the idea off the ground. Also, check out the KLAMP Facebook page and get in touch with Alex there.

Who knew that celebrating Labor Day could be done with a few swipes of silver and blue shadow and a juicy red pout? That's right — we're serving you some patriotic makeup just in time for your end-of-summer festivities. Head to that BBQ with this subtle look and you'll be the talk of the town (or at least the backyard).
What You Need:
Eyelid Primer
Silver or White Eyeshadow
Bright Blue Eyeshadow (or eyeliner)
Cosmetic Brushes
Red Lipstick
Step 1: Grand Old Primer
Apply a coat of eyelid primer across your entire lid to just above the crease. This is especially important if you're wearing a glittery shadow! I'm using Urban Decay's Primer Potion. If you don't have a primer, substitute concealer.
Step 2: Of Silver I Sing
Once your primer has dried, apply your silver (or white) shadow. I'm using Revolt from Urban Decay's Electric palette. To build color, pat your shadow brush onto your eye instead of swiping it across your lids.
Step 3: Blue Crush
Grab an eyeliner brush and slightly wet it. Dip the damp brush into your bright blue shadow (I'm using Chaos from the Electric palette). Draw a fine line from the inner corner of your eye and extend it just past the outer corner. Also apply a the liner along the inner lower corners of your eyes for even more impact. Note that you can use a blue liquid or pencil eyeliner if you prefer.
Step 4: Red Lips Forever
To really make this look patriotic, apply a generous coat of red lipstick to your lips. I'm using Rimmel Show Off Lacquer in Big Bang, a liquid-y blue-red that really pops.To make your lip color last longer, use a primer and liner before applying lipstick. Oh, and don't forget your mascara.

Blame it on the Russians. According to the leaked DNC emails, the Dems are blaming the Russians for their problems. And – CNN is going full out blaming the Russians for hacking DNC emails. Okay. Now it's Putin's fault. He's trying to influence our election. What we are starting to see is the Obama Administration and their fawning media going full-on Canadian Bacon, when it comes to Russia and Vladimir Putin. I gather there's something evil about Donald Trump because he is trying to behave in a rational manner when it comes to Russia. Hillary, by maintaining the Obama-Kerry status quo, is continuing the Obama push toward World War III.
I think we need to as why. Anyone who knows the Clintons knows there are big bucks involved. They never do anything for altruistic reasons, only money and power. They are bought and paid for by George Soros, who hates Putin. I believe Putin would like to see Soros in prison? Obama needs a war with Russia to deflect from his irrational hatred of Putin. We're closer now to a nuclear war than we were, except for the Bay of Pigs.
Oh, please! Even Clinton's campaign manager is saying Russia is helping Trump. They are insane. I lived through Nixon, as a teen. I became a writer because of Woodward and Bernstein. I know what paranoia, manipulation, and insanity is. And – this is it.
This is full blown shark jumping insanity. There is even more. According to leaked information the Saudis are funding up to 20% of Hillary's campaign. That explains why the Dems are trying to say Trump is seeking foreign donations. I'm learning, with this election cycle, if the Dems accuse Trump of doing something, they've already done it, themselves.
There is even another list of what the DNC & Hillary has done to both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders. It is one of the nastiest things I've seen. Frankly, I don't see how anyone can vote for this woman, now. Add the Clinton Foundation and quid pro quo with Saudi Arabia and it would doom a Republican. We're talking about Hillary Clinton. In order to hide her duplicity, the Democratic world must bash Putin, to the point where we are standing on the brink of World War III.
"…He's the preeminent world leader, its foremost peace and stability champion, saying what he means and meaning what he says forthrightly – polar opposite how Obama and other US officials operate.
You'd never know it from relentless bashing he takes – shamelessly blaming him for nonexistent "Russia aggression," fantasy revanchist aims, imaginary super-wealth stashed in tax havens, Hillary comparing him to Hitler – to accusing him of helping Trump by hacking DNC emails and handing them to WikiLeaks for publication.
Romanian Guccifer 2.0 was responsible. Russia had nothing to do with it. Putin is automatically blamed whenever the chance arises, due diligence checking systematically avoided – propaganda taking precedence over facts.
A same-day article explained thousands of emails WikiLeaks released showed Democrat party bosses rigged things for Clinton, aiding her fundraising, enlisting one-sided media support, stealing primaries and caucuses, along with other dirty tricks.
She didn't win a majority of delegates for nomination. Enough were handed to her to assure it – more criminality added to her notorious rap sheet…."
This is political corruption on an entirely new scale. If we were talking Republican, the candidate would have already been forced to resign. Hillary will get away with it. She is that corrupt, the media is that corrupt, and Democrats obviously don't care.

Singing in public is usually a terrifying ordeal for a child. Not for Marleigh Miller, however. She nailed "How Great Thou Art" in church when she was just 7 years old. And while the performance — which was captured on video — happened in 2011, it's only now going viral.
Clad in a black dress with red ribbons, Miller confidently belts out the rangy song and nails every note.
RELATED: Vince Gill's acoustic version of "How Great Thou Art" will absolutely floor you
Miller is 13 now, and we hope she's basking in all this newfound attention.
She has several other videos on her YouTube channel, including one of her singing Carrie Underwood's "Jesus, Take The Wheel," also in 2011, plus a 2015 clip of her nailing LeAnn Rimes' "Blue." The most recent videos are from this year, in which a now teenage Marleigh sings "Mom" in church on Mother's Day, and covers "American Idol" winner David Cook's "Time Of My Life" anthem at a sports banquet.
RELATED: Alan Jackson's live performance of "How Great Thou Art" is simply wonderful
Look forward to seeing what's next from this gifted girl.

To address this issue, operators have come up with pools of members of staff from whom they can obtain as much as desirable. For example, quite a few Hiring company has recently developed to cater for post-acute and long-term care.
Adoption of Electronic Health Record (EHR)
Seniors will now be able to access their care givers through web-based communications between healthcare providers and patients to ensure improved health care. EHRs have many advantages, and they are rapidly increasing in the world of retirement homes. For example, there are quite a few systems which not only enable electronic storage of medical information but also streamlined contact with families.
Also, there has been a continual adoption of technology among old-age living operatives in the prediction- and for beneficial reasons. With devices like Google Home and Amazon Echo, seniors can utilize technology to switch the lights off, close their doors, control settings of appliances, create lists for shopping, and set verbal alerts. Technological support in retirement homes, like motion sensors, webcams, window and door sensors, motion sensors, reminders, emergency response devices, and a variety of video-calling devices do not need you to be computer literate to operate. Integrative and innovative programs that comprise of individuals of from all ages will burst out within the retirement sector of living, particularly retirement home. Retirement Home has transpired as a more reasonably priced choice for seniors.
Urban setting
2018's construction boom for retirement homes has created a drive to incorporate senior living communities into skillfully-developed communities where facilities like fitness centers, dining areas, and salons face the public to inspire improved interaction with the society in general. For example, new senior resident homes are being built in areas with things that incite pride among residents who adore exclusive and personalized experience like restaurants and coffee houses.
Rooms with various uses and flexibility
Spaces with several uses and adaptability are still prevalent, but as an alternative to having spaces regarded as multipurpose, developers will explore services that they can conjoin to perform various roles. For example, they can combine a coffee shop and a library instead of having the two.
Smart and inclusive layouts
Innovative footprints and elegant design are two significant factors in 2018 retirement home trends. Seniors are not appealed by sterile and bare houses. With this in mind, various retirement home developers are starting to offer units in apartment styles with a larger size, and resembling but not representing traditional units. Senior residential apartments are becoming more customizable, and seniors are being involved in selecting their finishes of choice.
The other most common activities taking place in top retirement homes in Canada are literacy or language programs, reminiscence or oral history interviewing, health and wellness events, arts programming, and friendly visiting. These are excellent, but there need more innovative and substantive methods, like new models of housing and new partnerships.
