Why Car Companies Will Win Either Way
Will the robotaxi model come to dominate the car landscape or will the current ownership model persist? Will electric cars come to dominate? These are big questions for the US automotive industry. However, the answer is that it likely won't matter because Detroit will win either way, especially GM. While Tesla would have no backup plan if electric cars didn't become mainstream, GM could continue on with its main business line. Further, GM has a valuable self-driving card division, Cruise, which could do very well if robo taxis become the predominant model.
FINSUM: A couple things to note here. Firstly, GM is the cheapest stock in the S&P 500 on an earning basis, so it has a lot of upside. Secondly, we don't think the robo taxi model will take over as the cost per mile to the end consumer is likely 2-7x the current cost, which means there would need to be massive changes to make it competitive.

It is amazing how many people share the same experience. When they try talking to their doctors about using vitamin and mineral supplements, they are met with condescension, laughter or belittlement.
These are the same doctors mind you, that when working with a woman who has just become pregnant, insist that they take a prenatal multivitamin/mineral supplement for the health of their baby.
Fortunately people are educating themselves on the value of a good quality multi-vitamin/mineral supplement because they have access to the thousands of peer-reviewed studies published every year validating the use of vitamin and mineral supplements in the prevention and treatment of disease.
Despite the media frenzied attempt to discredit nutritional supplements, the latest government-sponsored survey, found that more than half of American adults take nutritional supplements and more than three-quarters of U.S. Physicians (79 percent) and nurses (82 percent) recommend dietary supplements to their patients, and a similar number – 72 percent of physicians and 89 percent of nurses – personally use dietary supplements regularly, occasionally or seasonally.
"The increase in supplement use may be due to increased awareness and education about dietary supplement use," said lead report author Jaime Gahche, an associate service fellow in the CDC's National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey/Planning Branch at the National Center for Health Statistics.
An optimal daily intake of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other phytonutrients is so important to maintaining health and well-being that scientists at the Harvard Medical School have advised all adults to take a multivitamin supplement to help prevent deficiencies that may contribute to the onset of chronic diseases.
The lead researcher on one breakthrough study of multivitamins, Dr. J.M. Gaziano, MD made the vital importance of taking multivitamins crystal clear: "Multivitamins are the cheapest health insurance a person will ever buy. This study should finally answer all the doubters out there who still think multivitamin supplements have no value."
The reason for the growing popularity of nutritional supplements is both simple and complex. The fast pace of our society makes it difficult to make the best nutritional choices in the foods we eat. As a result, nutritional deficiencies are prevalent in our world today.
Reverse The Trend – Add 10 Years (Plus Quality) To Your Life!
According to a recent study conducted at the National Institutes of Health, researchers examined end segments on the DNA strands of over 580 women. These segments, called telomeres, shorten a little each time a cell divides. Shorter telomeres have been linked with an increased risk of serious health issues and death.
The researchers found that study participants who took a daily multivitamin had, on average, 5.1% longer telomeres than those who did not — the equivalent of approximately 9.8 additional years of life!
It is thought that because nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin E and the B vitamins (especially vitamin B12) and specific minerals can help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, they may be useful for the maintenance of telomere length, especially when consumed in ratios that supply each nutrient with its supporting co-factors.
Clinical studies have found that other nutrients and lifestyle habits help preserve telomere length as well, such as vitamin D, resveratrol, exercise and calorie restriction. This study provides yet another good reason to take a high-quality multivitamin on a daily basis – something too many people brush off as unnecessary.
Bruce Ames, PhD, one of America's best-known and most-respected scientists, believes a daily multivitamin and mineral supplement could be your best protection against age-related disease.
He postulates in his "triage theory" that when micronutrients are in short supply, the body allocates scarce resources to activities necessary for short-term survival, such as energy production, blood circulation, and brain function. This leaves other, less vital processes—DNA and mitochondrial repair, for example—to bear the brunt of the deficiencies. Over time, Dr. Ames maintains, cumulative damage and disruptions in metabolism lead to diseases of aging.
Take Stock Of Your Life Starting Today
Let's face it – most of us do not take a personal inventory of what we eat on a regular basis to ensure proper nutrition. Even if we are diligent, much of the nutrition in the foods we eat today have been stripped of their nutritional value by over processing.
Nutritional supplements are more widely used today than at any other time in our history. People are using nutritional supplements to fill the gaps between our unhealthy diets and our body's needs, helping to enhance everything from our workout regimens as well as our memory and mental functions.
The lack of proper supplementation may not be apparent; your body is amazingly equipped to keep you in balance, even when you are not providing the proper amounts of nutrients. This takes its toll on our bodies.
Our bodies, unlike cars, have no body shops to change our oil, perform tune-ups or rotate our tires. Our bodies rely upon the nutrients we take in to allow it to self-perform these regular life essential tune-ups. If these nutrients are not provided to our bodies, the next step is a trip to the hospital, taking pharmaceutical drugs, which if you took them when you were well would make you sick. We can help avoid such human body shops with proper nutritional supplementation.
You have the power to not only support longevity through supplementation but also improve the quality of your life along the way. You have a choice not to suffer from premature aging, fatigue, weakness, insomnia, irritability, nervousness, depression, poor concentration, memory loss, aches and pains, recurrent infections, allergies, circulatory problems and just not feeling at your best.
Now It's Your Turn To Act
Do you take a high-potency daily multivitamin/mineral? Don't wait any longer; take control of your health with proper supplementation!

Microsoft has donated $1bn (£700m, €908m) in cloud services to what it calls the public good. The cloud computing resources will be available to 70,000 non-profits and 900 university researchers over the next three years.
Brand Smith, president and chief legal officer of Microsoft, said, "Cloud services can unlock the secrets held by data in ways that create new insights and lead to breakthroughs, not just for science and technology, but for addressing the full range of economic and social challenges and the delivery of better human services."
Microsoft has planned three initiatives. One part of it is Azure, Microsoft's cloud computing platform, using which nonprofits can develop applications. It will also add Enterprise Mobility Suite (EMS) and CRM Online for the researchers.
The Office 365 nonprofit programme includes cloud-based versions of Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPont, besides Microsoft Power business intelligence for researchers. Finally, the company wants to provide internet connectivity and cloud services to the news communities in as many as 15 countries by the middle of 2017.
In an official blog post, Microsoft said: "Providing nonprofits with better access to Microsoft Cloud Services, including the powerful Microsoft Azure platform, builds upon Microsoft's long-time commitment to making cutting-edge technology available at no or low cost to organisations working on solving some of society's toughest problems."

Supporting, mentoring, sharing risks and funding your peers' projects creates a 'rising tide' or 'a positive-sum game' to help carry the entrepreneurial community into 2017 – that's the message emanating from co-working spaces and entrepreneurial networks. So, is it now essential to share more than office space or networking drinks with fellow founders, especially as the market deals with the events of 2016? These convincing insights will make you want to play your part.
Society is divided, so collaborate
Gabriela Hersham, founder of the London co-working space for innovative start-ups, Huckletree, tells it straight: "Without open, collaborative and encouraging ecosystems, the entrepreneurial success rate would plummet. Every single stage of the entrepreneurial journey is a huge challenge, not least fundraising – and yet with the right community of innovators and influencers around you everything becomes more tangible and achievable.
"2016 has shown us that society is more divided than ever. In the tech community it's very easy to get wrapped up in euphoria around the latest funding rounds, enormous salaries for junior engineers and successful exits, and these are all incredibly exciting things. But with the election of Donald Trump and the British public's decision to leave the EU, it has become clear that we all need to be mindful of the radical polarisation that is occurring, and the part we play in it."
"We cannot be blind to it. If we collaborate and spend time empathising with those who are different to us, the probability of being able to build a healthy, sustainable and productive world is much greater."
This founder is fully committed to the call for entrepreneurs to share responsibility for each other's success, saying collaborations happen between Huckletree members every day. And there's demand for three programmes – mentors, ambassadors, and weekly VC office hours – from members seeking support.
"These three programmes have become the very cornerstone of what we're building – helping our entrepreneurs to break past the hurdles between them and success," says Hersham.
Give advice, be a role model
Sharing your story with the world at large is important, so that future entrepreneurs have role models and tips to draw on. Which is exactly why Lu Li, the founder of the Blooming Founders network for early stage female entrepreneurs, has published an anthology of advice. The project was about creating more female role models in entrepreneurship, said Li.
"Collaboration, for me, is about understanding the needs and goals of each collaboration partner to create win-win situations. It suggests creativity and innovation, but also knowing that success is not a zero-sum game. A rising tide lifts all ships – this is exactly what happens when entrepreneurs work together and share responsibility for each other's success.
"My book Dear Female Founder is a product that was co-created with 66 female entrepreneurs and investors, who have each contributed a letter of advice written to the next generation of entrepreneurs."
Collaborate expecting dissatisfaction
John Arenas, CEO and founder of Serendipity Labs co-working space, reminds us that shared responsibility leads to endless listening and a measure of discomfort.
"Collaboration fosters the open exchange of ideas and shared responsibility for achieving a goal. In business that takes the right kind of culture, setting and workplaces. Collaboration requires listening. That often leads us to reconsider our own positions toward a compromise. I've found that collaboration provides the most powerful result when everyone involved has compromised enough to be just a little bit dissatisfied."
Pooling data and funding
Taking the question of responsibility to another level is the doctor-created repository of health expertise, Health Tap. Its founder and CEO Ron Gutman says: "Collaboration and compromise are important in business because they help us bring people and data together, which creates the foundation for interoperability that underlies more engaging, smarter, next generation products and services advancing human welfare."
And in conclusion, the success of so many entrepreneurs is due to their community agrees Ryan D. Matzner, co-founder of Fueled, the Manhattan start-up collective. Nothing drives innovation more than teams of people who feel at ease taking risks, challenging each other, and finding common ground, he says.
"From investors to mentors to customers, a huge part of success depends on the ecosystem around innovators. One of the key components is on the funding side. A very high percentage of angel investors are themselves entrepreneurs who have enjoyed success and are reinvesting some of the capital they earned in an exit. The more one entrepreneur succeeds, the more the community succeeds. It's completely a positive-sum game."

Drip by drip
West Indies needed 216 to beat Pakistan in Antigua, but looked dead in the water at 197 for 9 as Courtney Walsh strode out swinging his arms. But his captain, Jimmy Adams, was still there, and drip by drip (Adams' 48 not out came in almost six hours, with not a single boundary) they saw West Indies to the ninth one-wicket win in Test history. It shouldn't have been so: replays showed Walsh was caught via bat and pad off Saqlain Mushtaq, who then missed two clear run-out chances, one of them a sitter when Adams and Walsh ended up at the same end. Wasim Akram, who had put the burgeoning match-fixing scandal aside to bowl heroically for figures of 11 for 110, was the unluckiest of losers.
The beginning of the inaugural Test at Edgbaston, and England picked an XI who all had first-class centuries to their name. It was also, according to some very good judges, including Frank Keating, the greatest team they have ever picked: Archie MacLaren, CB Fry, Ranji, FS Jackson, Johnny Tyldesley, Dick Lilley, George Hirst, Gilbert Jessop, Len Braund, Bill Lockwood and Wilfred Rhodes. Rhodes - a man who scored almost 40,000 first-class runs - was some No. 11. He made 38 not out, and with Tyldesley cracking 138, England made 376 for 9 declared. That was worth plenty more on a pitch so poor that Australia were then skittled for 36, their lowest Test score. Rhodes took 7 for 17, but as England moved in for a quick second-innings kill, rain ruined the last day and the match was drawn.
Having already qualified for the Super Six stage by demolishing all comers, South Africa were probably not overly concerned when they lost their final group game against Zimbabwe in Chelmsford. But the repercussions were considerable: as well as knocking England out, it meant that South Africa carried two fewer points to the Super Six stage. With those two points, they would have finished above Australia in the Super Sixes and things might have turned out quite different.
But for his namesake Deryck, David Murray, the West Indian keeper, who was born today, would surely have played many more than 19 Tests. He was talented behind the wicket and a capable batsman who made three Test fifties and a first-class double hundred, in Jamshedpur on the 1978-79 tour of India. He took over from Deryck Murray - they were not related - in 1980-81, and was briefly No. 1, but he was banned from playing cricket in the West Indies after he went on a rebel tour to South Africa, and his last Test appearance came in Sydney in 1981-82.
A maiden IPL title for Sunrisers Hyderabad, who beat Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. Sunrisers were led from the front by David Warner, who finished with 848 runs in the tournament, and their bowlers - in particular Mustafizur Rahman and Bhuvneshwar Kumar - were stellar as well. Royal Challengers' path to the final was more dramatic, after they won only two of their first seven matches, and that they got there was thanks in large part to Virat Kohli, who scored a record four centuries in the season. But in the end it was Sunrisers who emerged victorious in a match in which over 400 runs were scored. Ben Cutting's tail-end 15-ball 39 was to prove vital.
Talat Ali, who was born today, played ten Tests for Pakistan in the 1970s, but he is better known as a match referee. Talat was a dogged opener who got his Test career off to a traumatic start when he fractured his thumb on debut, facing Dennis Lillee in Adelaide in 1972-73. Pakistan won only one of his ten matches, when he made 40 and a Test-best 61 in Christchurch in 1978-79.
Birth of the first man to be dismissed in a Test. Australian allrounder Nat Thomson was bowled by Yorkshire's Allen Hill for 1 at the MCG in the inaugural Test in 1876-77, but within three weeks his Test career was over. Thomson was dropped after the second Test, despite having made 41 in the second innings of a match where no Australian reached 50. He died in his native Sydney in 1896.
On the same day that Thomson was born, so was Edward James "Ned" Gregory. He also played in that first Test, and became the first batsman to fall for a duck in a Test. It was his only appearance. His son Syd, who was born on the site of the SCG, later captained Australia. Ned was curator at the SCG for 30 years, where he died in 1899.

Special favor: Psalm 4.3 VOTD
"Realize that the Lord shows the godly special favor; the Lord responds when I cry out to him."
Psalm 4.3
David speaks to those who seek to bring shame upon him, v 2. He appeals for their repentance, v. 4.
God hears his people's prayers. They alone are so privileged. He helps those who seek him. What pleas do you make to God today?
12-8-2016 God Hears "Help!"
"Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the LORD his God, Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever, Who executes justice for the oppressed, Who gives food to the hungry. The LORD gives freedom to the prisoners" (Psalm 146:5-7 NKJV). God gives "help," a word meaning "to run at a cry." The Creator God is the source of life, truth, justice, food, and freedom. In the Apostle Paul's vision "A man of Macedonia stood and pleaded with him, saying, 'Come over to Macedonia and help us.' Now after he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them" (Acts 16:9-10 NKJV). God hears cries of "Help!" for either physical or spiritual needs.
This is Johnny Polk, with "Words of Wisdom" brought to you by the Oneida church of Christ.
4 Ways to help defeat discouragement
Some things that we can do to send discouragement packing doesn't have anything to do with getting things – it has everything to do with getting rid of things:
- One, since misery loves company, we need to quit hanging around people who discourage us from doing or thinking right (think along the lines of Galatians 5:7 or 1 Corinthians 15:33 when it comes to the ability of others to influence us negatively) – if people can't talk right or be anything but a downer towards you, then don't talk to them.
- Two, as best as possible, forget the critics and remember the encouragers of life (there will always be more critics than encouragers).
- Three, don't dwell on the past – if the past helps, good; if the past hinders let it go (read Philippians 3:13 or think about the 2nd stanza of the song "Higher Ground").
- Four, get rid of the idea that says everything is supposed to be fine all the time and that problems are signs of weakness (that type of reality isn't the reality of this dead and dying world – Job 14:1).
"looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls." (Hebrews 12:2-3)
One Honest Man!
One of the most honest people (if not the most honest in many ways) that Jesus ever dealt with is found in Mark 9:17-27.
Who is this man? We don't much about him, but we know enough. He was a father who needed help for his child. He was a man caught in a situation that he could not fix by himself. He was a man who was heading in the right direction when he came to Jesus.
So what makes this man so honest? It was his willingness to admit his weakness!
"Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!"" (Mark 9:23-24).
The man knew he needed stronger faith. The man knew that pride would get him nowhere in this situation. The man knew there was only one place to go, not only for his child, but for himself as well. That's why this man was one honest man!
This isn't an opportunity to talk about how a person can do whatever they want if they just have the faith. It's an opportunity to learn that if God wills something to be done, then He can provide us with the faith to see it through – if we're willing to be honest with Him that is.
Just how honest, brothers and sisters, are we willing to be with ourselves? Lord, help us with our unbelief!
"For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself." (Galatians 6:3)
Words That Can Make Better People
During our last gospel meeting, we had a television commercial that pointed out the Bible was the only how-to book someone needs to learn how to become a better person.
Often, the Apostle Paul's inspired direction to Christians came in simple statements. They were designed to help people improve themselves. A good example of this is Colossians 4:1-6.
- "Grant to your slaves justice and fairness, knowing that you too have a Master in heaven." Few of us have slaves these days, but shouldn't our dealings with all men be just and fair? When asked what the greatest commandment was, Jesus combined two into one by saying, "The first is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one: and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength. The second is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these," Mark 12:29-30). We must remember we have a Master in heaven who expects us to do what is right.
- "Devote yourselves to prayer…" The components of this devotion include steadfastness and watchfulness with thanksgiving. The word "steadfastly" was also used in Mark 3:9, describing how the little boat was to keep close to the shore, ready to be used by the Master. This is the kind of devotion we should have. Watchfulness is a component, too, a present active participle, meaning we should never stop.
- "Walk in wisdom…" The Bible often uses the word "walk" to indicate how we should conduct ourselves as Christians. We are being watched. People are making judgments about Christianity based on what they see in our lives. A large part of that conduct is composed of what we do with our speech, isn't it? It is how we speak that determines what people think.
- "Seasoned with salt…" The two important parts of speech are grace and salt. Of this verse, A.T. Robertson said, "Grace and wit make an ideal combination." Adam Clarke said the Christian's speech must not only be holy, "but wise, gracious, and intelligent." Salt seasons food, but it also prepares it. Good speech prepares us to influence others for Christ.
Grant, devote, conduct, seasoned are simple words, but the wisdom they communicate is beyond human attempts to order peoples' lives. The Bible is, indeed, the only how-to book that can help us all become better people and fit our souls for heaven.
Good Marital Sacrifice
A good marital sacrifice, is when one mate is incapacitated for a period of time, to take over the chore of cleaning the house, washing the dishes, buying the groceries, preparing the meals, etc.
The "little ones" in my life is my con…
The "little ones" in my life is my congregation of loving and caring people who help me when I'm in financial straits. Conversely, I help them in preaching and teaching the sound gospel of Christ (or whatever else needs to be done). We help one another, and in so doing, both of us are richly blessed by the Lord.
My Most Useful Gift
My most useful gift was a Dickson Bible that my wife and father-in-law gave me on Christmas Day in 1981. It contains many Bible helps that today's cheaper Bibles do not have. I've used it very extensively in Bible class teaching.
My favorite hymn is "Hold to God's Unc…
My favorite hymn is "Hold to God's Unchanging Hand" by F.L.Eiland: http://www.scripturessay.com/song/2-19Track19.mp3
The lyrics of the song are taken from Hebrews 13:5-8, where the Hebrew writer talks about the fact that we need to be satisfied with what God has provided us (Matthew 6:19-34). For us not to worry about the necessities of life, because the unchanging God we serve, will never leave us or forsake us – always there to help us when we need help.
Yesterday I spoke on hope in troubled times, focusing on passages that give me hope.
The words I long to hear more than any other: "Well done." Christianity for the two-talent and the five-talent people was a blessing. Christianity is a livable religion with a bearable yoke. You can go to heaven. 2 Tim. 4:6-8 tells of an awards day. The Day of Judgment is not all negative; there are judgments of life too.
When things were at their worst, Jeremiah sang in his Lament the beautiful passage from 3:21-24… The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases. His mercy never comes to an end…

Just in case you were wondering … the Aylesford Knitting Group will be meeting tonight, usual time and place. It's our first meeting of the New Year, so let's share our knitting resolutions. My number one plan is to work through my WIPs without starting too many new projects. Let's see how long that lasts! Oops! I fear I may already have broken that particular resolution.
Never mind. As I always say – you're not a proper knitter until you have at least 9 or 10 projects on the go at once!

The Adventure of the Treasure Hunt
by Musa Demets, age 8
One day, Musa and his dog were sitting on a rock, and Musa's dog said, ''What are you looking at?'' Musa said, ''I am looking at a map.'' Then, Musa's dog said, ''Maybe we can find the treasure in the map.'' ''Yeah! That would be awesome!" said Musa. "Come on! Let's go!"
The first obstacle of the map was to cross the river with the crocodiles. Musa found some rocks in the river and then he took action. Guess what he did? He hopped from rock to rock, and so did his dog.
Then it showed on the map that there was a harder obstacle coming up. They looked up and guess what they saw? They saw a huge mountain, and it said on the map that they had to climb it. Half of the day was gone when they finished climbing it.
Then the map said they had to go through the mountain's jungle, filled with roaring tigers and lions. To get through it, they made cardboard cut-outs of themselves (do not tell the lions and tigers OK?). They hung the cardboard cut-outs on a tree, and then they (the real ones) went on around the bushes to pass them secretly. The lions and tigers were distracted by the cardboard Musa and his dog.
Then they found a place with so many bushes. One of them had the treasure, but which one? Then Musa heard his dog say he found something. Guess what it was? The treasure!! Musa opened the treasure. Guess what was in it? It was another map to find the real treasure!!
So Musa said to his dog, "What is this! We came here for this!" Musa's dog said, ''So let's find the next treasure on the map, instead of talking about how we came all the way here. Ok, so should we start?'' Musa said, "You are right and so let's get started! So now it says on this second map that we have to go across the mountain to the other side. Let's start then.''
They suddenly stopped. There in front of them was the most hugest snake they ever saw in their life! It was bigger than them! Musa took his flute out, and he used it like snake charmers do. The snake was happy and it got distracted by it. They ran away and got to the opposite side just in time.
The next thing was to jump from the other side of the mountain. Luckily, they had some help from their gear boxes -- they had parachutes! The last thing on the map was a hard one. At the bottom of the mountain was a huge river with rapid water, and it said they had to go to the bottom of the floor of the rapid river. So they put on their super diving suits and went in.
Then a horrible shark looked at them with a terrifying face. They saw baby sharks at the bottom of the river. Then they knew what the shark wanted - she wanted them to get away from her babies.
Then Musa's dog said ''I see something under the sharks place where she keeps her babies! It's the treasure!! Yay, lets pull it out!" When they opened it, they saw golden coins that showed an 'M' logo on it! Under it was another map again!
Musa and his dog went back to their lab with their treasure, and they found out that there was a certain type of bad group that was trying to steal the treasure. So now Musa and his dog knew that they were not the only ones trying to find the treasure. If the bad group found the treasure first, they would do something very bad.
At the same time, Musa and his dog were trying to find out who this mysterious person was who had made the whole treasure hunt. A bit before, Musa and his dog used their super scanners to find any information on the treasure and they found a photograph. Because the photo was so dirty, all they could see was a picture of a bit of a temple, so they figured that the mysterious person must have lived there.
Musa and his dog needed to get back to finding the treasure, so they looked at the map and it said to go through the Wicked Path. "It's called the Wicked Path because there are blood sucking bats, dark trees, it's all dark and it has wicked ghosts in it," said Musa. So now how will Musa and his dog get past?
I don't know how they did it, but they did, and this is how they did it. They took out their wings from their backpack and those wings have jets. So they attached them their bodies and flew over the wicked path easily and fast!
When they passed the wicked path, they met some strangers, but the strangers were the same bad group they looked up before! So Musa and his dog ran! But the bad people ran after them, so Musa and his dog took out their fighting suits and their swords and they charged! But the bad people had swords too!
They charged as well but then Musa and his dog heard footsteps. They were from two knight guards who heard the noise and came to see what was going on. Then Musa and his dog saw the logo on the knights and it was of the temple that they saw on the treasure! So the knights took the bad people to jail and took Musa and his dog to the temple.
Musa and his dog saw the mysterious person (his name was Super Master). He gave them the treasure. It was two golden swords and they had energy crystals with super energy. Whoever has the crystal will be the most awesome person in the universe. He also gave them $1,000. Musa and his dog were very happy they had completed their quest, and were now the most super boy and dog in the universe!

See how this recipe was made on Facebook Live!
Snobs be damned, cheap wine is fabulous. We're not talking about cooking wine or sticky-sweet varieties (ask me about the time in high school when I drank an entire bottle of Manischewitz at a party and got purple puke all over the front lawn). I mean the $3 to $6 bottles you always end up sticking in your grocery basket, figuring they're not good enough for company, so you sip them alone. Well, with a few little tricks, your $3 wine can taste like $50 bottle of wine. Or at least one in the low- to mid-twenties range.
Decant It. This simply means transfer it to a new container- like a pitcher or another bottle. The act of transferring and moving the wine around helps to introduce oxygen into it, which improves the flavor. Note: don't try to decant sparkling wine, as it will only make the wine go flat faster, which improves the flavor only for older, more expensive sparkling wines.
Aerate It. When decanting isn't enough, try aerating your wine, by either pouring it through a wine aerator (look for them in wine stores and cooking supply shops) or simply stirring it. My favorite way to do this without a wine aerator is to pour the wine into a large jar or pitcher and whisk it with a wire whisk for 30 to 60 seconds. Then let it sit for a few minutes. You will most likely find the wine's flavor to be improved.
Chill It. Even if it's red. But no ice cubes.
Blend It. This may sound crazy, but I promise you, nobody will ever know. If you mix a bottle of cheap wine with a bottle of slightly less cheap wine in a big pitcher, aerate it well, and put it in front of your friends, do you know what they'll do?
They'll smile because you just put a HUGE pitcher of wine in front of them. Then they'll drink it and comment on how unique it tastes. I promise. Try it.
Mull It. Simmer your wine with a few cloves, cinnamon sticks, cardamom pods, and orange peels. Not only will your house smell amazing, but your crappy wine will mellow into the ultimate stay-warm sipper.

Astrology Prediction : Query by Anuj Ghai, from Jalandhar city (India)
Name : Anuj Ghai
Date of Birth : 10-05-1995
Time of Birth : 18:30 Hrs (IST)
Place of Birth : Jalandhar city (India)
Query : namstey sir, main janna chahta hu k mujhe Moksh mile ga k nahi
Anuj Ghai,
According to Vedic astrology my observations are as follows:
(I am really surprise that at the age of 21+ years you are asking your Moksh position)
1. Libra ascendant and lord Venus is exalted in the house of enemies, health and related issues, this Venus is representing house of Occult science too. Lord of Trik house Jupiter retrograde from the house of conversation and finance is giving aspect on ascendant lord. Indicating your interest and other issues. This Venus is giving aspect on the house of hermitage/Moksh etc.
2. Karma bhav has Neech Mars, in the last degrees, lord of Karma Moon is in the house of gains and ambitions, Kam Tikon. This Karma related Mars (Neech) also indicates lordship of Kam trikon (house of marriage) and finance, is afflicting house of spiritualism and lord of spiritualism.
It is clear that due to your own reasons, mood, emotions and interests, I don't think that this horoscope is indicating for Moksh.
It's a age to give your best for the Karmas.

Question about canon modification.
Posted 16 December 2012 - 10:23 PM
Posted 17 December 2012 - 12:06 AM
So even if we only have a few ADU of star bloat in the RAW, by the time we stretch the histogram to a final presentation level, it can become very visible. So the appearance of IR effects is dependent on processing style and extent of histogram stretching.
Actually, this makes a lot of sense to me! Good point
Posted 17 December 2012 - 12:13 AM
Also, you mention that some people experience little star bloat and that the difference of a few percent may not be noticeable.
Is it also possible some refractive OTA's are better corrected in the IR than others?
Posted 17 December 2012 - 02:02 AM
As for Mike's image, I can only go on what he says was done to his camera. In any case, it is an obvious demonstration of IR caused star bloating.
Hap, we are talking science and Mike's image is an uncontrolled test and/or for that matter an uncontrolled mod. I am for using empirical evidence before hastening to the point of citing it. To be fair, at this point I don't think we have countered Brent's point of replacing LPF-2 with expensive alternatives being wasteful science, if not the money. Regards
Posted 17 December 2012 - 02:05 AM
I'm totally agree (about the LPF-1) and...
I know, I know, (yes I learn something haha! )
But Primary! just want to keep this simple...
(I have experiences with peoples/material that don't want astrophotography complicated,
perfect sky balance at each shot, this is why we
choose the Happ's astrodon or baader filter, we found that full spectrum with filter is risky,
and mess a lot of nights, time, money... this is why we choose the DSLR...
(full spectrum for a first camera?...)
Just to say to don't forget about the distance for focusing on focusing,
Aboy wants to use his nikons lens with an adapter... full spectrum, (no glass/LPF-1) will not work, focussing distance will not be good
The cost/bill of material is near the same full spectrum or not...
(if done by yourself, because not complicated...)
Posted 17 December 2012 - 07:18 AM
Just to say to don't forget about the distance for focusing on focusing,
Aboy wants to use his nikons lens with an adapter... full spectrum, (no glass/LPF-1) will not work, focussing distance will not be good
Yes. I'll use an adapter.. But up to I know it's possible to use it manual, that is in theory.. But I'll find out in real life soon.
Ps. I am learning a lot with this thread
Posted 17 December 2012 - 10:45 AM

To be fair, at this point I don't think we have countered Brent's point of replacing LPF-2 with expensive alternatives being wasteful science, if not the money. Regards
Agreed. I'd like to see more images taken with LPF#1 only modified cameras through refractive systems with bright stars in them. As for the money, as I said before, the difference between a clear glass mod and a Baader or Astrodon mod is minimal when compared to the entire cost of the modification and shipping and the value of your imaging time if you find, as Mike did, that you have IR induced star bloat (which is what his image really looks like). Like I stated before, we spend lots of time and money on our scopes, mounts, observatories, travelling to dark sky sites, etc. If we want the absolute most pinpoint star images that our optics are capable of, we need to minimize IR leakage. The stock Canon's have two layers of IR rejection. By removing one of them, you are leaving the camera with less IR rejection than it had in stock condition. Brent's test image of a stove eye that is invisible with both LPF#1 and LPF#2 in place, yet is clearly visible with only LPF#1 in place shows that IR light definitely goes through LPF#1 in amounts sufficent to make a clear photograph. Do you want to have that amount of IR reaching your sensor? It's up to you.
Posted 17 December 2012 - 03:00 PM
Regarding Brent's suggestion that reflections could be partly to blame, I'm hopeful this is not the case. I have imaged the Pleiades with the same 'scope and CLS filter previously, though with a different (and unmodded) camera, with no internal reflection issues.
I'm looking forward to trying out the 2" Baader IR/UV-cut, but alas there is no clear sky on the radar at the moment.
Posted 17 December 2012 - 07:19 PM
I am told that the main filter was to be removed, and not the second (LPF-1 in the terminology used here)
Mike, sorry, but you are repeating the ambiguity most of us are trying to avoid. There is no such thing as "main filter" and your sentence is confusing at best as to which one was removed, LPF-1 or LPF-2?
Please confirm with a statement, e.g., "LPF-2 was removed, although you are doubtful". Thx
Posted 17 December 2012 - 07:47 PM
You can tell if LPF#2 has been removed by setting the automatic white balance to daylight and shooting a JPEG of an outdoor scene. If the overall tint is reddish, then LPF#2 is missing.
Mike, please do these tests and let us know the outcomes and we will have a better idea of the actual status of your camera.
Posted 18 December 2012 - 08:20 AM
Hap: I do have the overall red tinge to daylight shots, and am getting good results with emission nebulae imaging, e.g
Note that both of these display the red disks around the bright stars that I believe to be due to IR.
The self-cleaning routine on the camera works when I switch it on and off (or at least it does not display an error message).
Posted 18 December 2012 - 12:15 PM
Thank you for the additional images with the bright stars. The fact that the bloating is in the red channel is pretty conclusive that the issue is IR related.
Posted 18 December 2012 - 05:03 PM
I'm the "Brent" that did the stovetop tests.
My T1i and another T1i I modded for my friend Jeff Ball, don't show star bloat. Both are the LPF#1 only mod (LPF#1 filter left in camera, LPF#2 removed with no replacement filter)
I can only speak from my experience, but using my relatively low-end imaging gear (Nikkor lenses), I don't see adverse affects of IR related star bloat. Maybe the Nikkors are well corrected for IR.
Now Jeff, on the otherhand has high-end APO gear that probably corrects well for IR, and his images don't show IR bloat issues either.
So, what does this mean. For me, I'm replacing my T1i with a T3i that I will be modding soon. I will remove LPF#2 and
leave only the LPF#1 in place, but before doing so, I will try to perform additional test of before and after to add more "data" to this discussion.
I may repeat the "stovetop" test, and throw in some additional IR remotes that may be transmitting at different wavelengths. I also have a B+W 486 IR filter, A Baader IR 1.25" filter, and an original Baader BCF filter that I will use in the tests to see what results I get using different IR filters.
I will also take series of star images with the T3i before mod
and repeat using the same setup after mod to see if star bloat is apparent.
For other users with different optical systems, the results may be different, so take that into consideration when I post the results.
Posted 18 December 2012 - 06:53 PM
Posted 18 December 2012 - 07:10 PM
I'm presuming that it is entirely possible to remove LPF2 and if the star bloat is experienced to go back and install a secondary filter (Astronomik, Baader, Asrtrodon ...etc) at a later time without affecting the camera further?
Yes, that's one school of thought per discussion thus far. Thx
Posted 18 December 2012 - 10:25 PM
Posted 19 December 2012 - 01:25 AM
I have done many tests over time showing that the original Canon front filter of the newer two-filter models by itself does not fully block infrared. A still image test comparing the front filter only of a 1000D (XS)camera to a Baader BCF-1 DSLR replacement filter is HERE.
Today, I posted a YouTube video using a Full Spectrum modified camera to demonstrate how much more infrared light the original front filter passes than in a Baader (or Astrodon) modified camera. The YouTube video is HERE.
The front filter does not have a sharp cutoff at 700nm like the Baader or Astrodon filters. Baader has the transmission curve of the Baader BCF filter posted HERE. In the FILES section of DSLRmodifications there is a spectral curve by Ken Harrison that shows the front filter of a 1000D (XS) passes infrared above 700nm.
If you are imaging with a reflector, SCT or RC at prime and using a "front filter only" modified camera you should not have star bloat. Once you add a lens such as a reducer or barlow you will and would need to add an IR blocking filter.
Posted 19 December 2012 - 09:35 AM
Those of us who are offering filter modifications are not trying to sell an extra filter that customers don't need (except in very special cases) but a solution to the IR problem that has been demonstrated clearly by the test images shown in this thread. If you feel that the Canon LPF#1 by itself provides all the IR blocking that you need, that's fine and it's your choice. In my experienced opinion after having worked with television camera optics for 34 years, performing over 800 Canon DSLR modifications and having my DSLR astro images published in books and magazines, I feel that the most versatile modification that will ensure that your Canon DSLR can be used with any telescope you will ever get without resorting to external filters, is one that replaces LPF#2 with a true astronomical UV/IR filter.
Posted 19 December 2012 - 09:42 AM
Posted 19 December 2012 - 10:28 AM
I have been telling my customers that even though SCTs have a corrector lens up front, it is a weak lens and does a good job of focusing both infrared and visible (RGB) light to the same point. Also, that the Celestron SCTs are especially good in this regard since their correctors are a little thinner than those of Meade SCTs. Samir Kharusi on this page:
..says this...
"Another common remark is that refractive optics need to be used with a UV/IR Blocker; true, but the corollary that SCTs also do because of their corrector plates is not true. The corrector plates are very weak "lenses" and in actual usage resolution is not impaired to any noticeable extent. In fact I got sharper images in planetary webcamming with no UV/IR blocker than with. Ditto with trying to image the 6 stars in the Trapezium or the zillions in M13 using the modded 20D. Do your own testing. The IR does allow you to use very short exposures, important in hi-res imaging, and you should not throw it away by blindly following weighty pronouncements by the Wise."
I have a 10" Meade LX200, so I could do some testing, but I haven't imaged with it in a very long time. Many have been buying the new HD versions of SCTs and with their extra lens elements, I would expect an IR blocking filter is needed. I'd rather be imaging than testing.

Ps. I am learning a lot with this thread
Aboy, I think you get your post stolen,
yes you will see that with lenses, focal distance without glass/filter is important
(don't be surprised if you can't focus) HAHA!
(someone disagree with that???)
Sadly, the people with so much experiences can give you a little advices?
Just received my nikkor 180mm ED F2.8 with canon adapter wow! focus like a charm! woooooo!
Posted 19 December 2012 - 09:23 PM
I do image with a Nikkor 180mm ED F2.8 camera lens using the Nikon to Canon EOS adapter. Some images with the Nikkor lens can be seen HERE. The lens has no problem reaching focus with my Full Spectrum and Baader Modified cameras. My Full Spectrum cameras use an Astronomik MC DSLR clear glass replacement so focus is not an issue. My guess is that if the Full Spectrum modification is one in which both original filters were removed and replaced with nothing, the lens will not reach focus at infinity for stars.
I'm sure you'll enjoy your new lens.
Posted 19 December 2012 - 11:31 PM
Here is an image showing the dual filter system used in 90% of newer models(ALL Canon from the 400D and newer, and most Nikons)
That image does not represent the "dual filter system used in 90% of newer models(ALL Canon from the 400D and newer".
That image shows the frontmost filter as the Infrared Absorption Glass which may be true in the Canon EOS 1D model but that is not the case in the Canon models 400D (Xti), 450D (XSi), 500D (T1i), 550D (T2i), 600D (T3i), 650D (T3i), 1000D (XS), 1100D (T3), 40D, 50D, 60D and 5D Mark II. In those models it is the second filter that is labeled by Canon as the "Infrared Absorption Glass". A list of Canon Filter Diagrams for various Canon models with the correct labels by Canon is HERE.
Posted 20 December 2012 - 06:34 AM
If you are imaging with a reflector, SCT or RC at prime and using a "front filter only" modified camera you should not have star bloat.
Gary, are you implying that there will be star bloat with a refractor at prime focus and using "LPF-1 only" modified camera?

Brain Healthy IngredientsEggs, Nuts, Sweet Potatoes
Serves: 8-10
Sweet potatoes are rich in beta carotene—a powerful antioxidant—which studies suggest is an important nutrient for cognitive function, especially in older adults.
When cooking nuts in the oven, they can go from raw to burnt in no time flat. Be sure to keep a close eye on them!
- 2 large sweet potatoes, about 1 lb each
- 1 (16 ounce) loaf day-old soft bread, cut into 1 inch cubes (Challah bread is best)
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg whites
- ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp cinnamon
Maple Pecan Crunch
- 2 cups pecan halves
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp bourbon (optional)
Whiskey Sauce
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 Tbsp bourbon (optional)
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Prick each sweet potato a few times with a fork. Place on a baking sheet and bake in oven until soft, approximately one hour and 15 minutes. Allow to cool, then remove skins and transfer sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Mash with a potato masher or fork.
- Add milk, eggs, egg whites, brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon to sweet potatoes. Whisk until well combined. Fold in bread cubes.
- Pour bread mixture into a greased 9×13 pan and smooth top. Cover and chill for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Maple Pecan Crunch
- Stir together pecans, maple syrup, and bourbon in a large bowl. Spread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cook 12-14 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes and watching carefully so that they don't burn.
- Remove from oven and move parchment paper to a cool surface. Allow pecans to cool, stirring frequently so they don't stick together. Coarsely chop.
Whiskey Sauce
- In a double boiler (or a bowl set over simmering water) melt butter and sugar and whisk until sugar is dissolved, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and whisk in egg, stirring vigorously to prevent egg from curdling.
- Stir in bourbon.
To Bake and Serve
- Remove bread pudding from refrigerator and bake at 400 degrees F until firm and lightly browned, approximately 35-40 minutes.
- Sprinkle pecan mixture on top, pressing in gently to secure. Serve warm with whiskey sauce.

I'm not going to lie. When my husband was deployed, certain rules and routines in our house kind of fell apart. The worst of these was probably TV.
Between pregnancy, a hellacious cold that kept me up at night for literally weeks on end, sciatica that just wouldn't quit, work stresses, and, lest we forget, winter, we watched a lot of television, my 3-year-old and I.
By the time his baby brother was born, Isaac could actually navigate streaming Netflix by himself. I'm not proud. (But I am thankful he couldn't figure out how to turn on the TV, so I never found him watching Power Rangers by himself at 2 a.m. or anything.)
But by then, we were in triage mode -- let's just get to the end of the deployment by any means necessary. Heck, a lot of mornings, it was, let me have a shower by whatever means necessary.
When my husband got home, we started enforcing the limits better (man-to-man defense is much easier, as my friend Beth points out). Isaac went along, but he was awfully cranky about it -- and he pushed back a lot.
Then there were my own TV habits. After five-and-a-half years of blogging about reality television for The Sun, nearly every night during some parts of the season (though after my son's bedtime, for the record), I was just kind of used to watching it. And these days, there is some reality show or another on all. the. time.
But then, our (brand new) TV broke. Between repair visits and back-ordered parts and miscommunications, we were without television for almost two weeks. It's maybe the best thing that's ever happened.
It completely reset Isaac's habits. After day care, he runs immediately to his toys, colors and books, rather than whining to go to the basement and watch TV. He earns maybe one (short) show a night, but not every day, and much of the time, he's having so much fun doing other things that he doesn't even think about it.
It's a relief. Like I said, we were working in that direction in the first place, but when there wasn't a choice, it made resetting the habits so much easier.
And as for my own viewing, the long-standing routine is broken. I don't need to know what song the American Idol finalists sang the night before the winner was named or which celeb got the highest score on Dancing With the Stars. I still watch a couple of my favorites, but rarely on the night they're broadcast, and with much more fast-forwarding than in the past.
I'm enjoying the relative quiet.
If you let limits on television -- or anything else -- slide, how did you go about resetting them?
I'm not going to lie. When my husband was deployed, certain rules and routines in our house kind of fell apart. The worst of these was probably TV.

Miiverse is a stage for the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U. The stage is functionally the same as Battlefield, but has Miiverse drawings in the background. It was added to the game in version 1.0.8 on June 14, 2015 though it is featured in its omega form as the online practice stage
Stage Features
The stage is functionally similar to Battlefield in that it is made of one large platform with 3 thin platforms in a triangle formation. It is slightly wider with a slightly higher ceiling than Battlefield.
The main gimmick is the background drawings. Drawings pulled from Miiverse appear in the background. Scoring a big hit or KO can add a new drawing while old drawing disappear throughout the match. The more a character is winning, the more drawings for that character appear. These drawings are not fully screened before they can be pulled though. After a match, the winning player is prompted to make a Miiverse drawing for their character. Each character has a Miiverse community filled with the drawings the stage pulls from. If the console is not connected to the internet, there are still generic drawings shown in the background.
Italics refer to that the song is returning from a past game and bold means the song must be unlocked

People, Americas, Inclusive Growth
World Resources Institute | Jul 21, 2017
WASHINGTON (July 12, 2017) — According to a new report from World Resources Institute Ross Center for Sustainable Cities, 330 million households in cities around the world, equivalent to 1.2 billion people, do not have access to affordable and secure housing. Without immediate action, the problem will become even more critical, as this housing gap is projected to grow by 30 percent to 1.6 billion people by 2025.
"Cities are the engines of economic growth and policymakers need help prioritizing solutions," said Ani Dasgupta, Global Director of WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities. "Supporting affordable housing is one of the best ways to help fast-growing cities in the global south run smoother and provide benefits to all residents.
"Two and half billion additional people will be living in urban areas worldwide by 2050, with Asia and Africa seeing nearly 90 percent of this growth. The housing gap has a human cost and is a major drag on the economy and the environment. We need to take immediate action to avoid creating cities that are less productive, less efficient and less inclusive—something that would truly impact everyone."
The latest installment of WRI's flagship World Resources Report "Towards a More Equitable City," which examines whether prioritizing access to core urban services for the underserved will create cities that are prosperous and sustainable for all people, emphasizes housing as one such critical core need.
"Housing is often seen as falling into discrete categories such as public or private, formal or informal," said Robin King, lead author and WRI Ross Center Director of Knowledge Capture and Collaboration. "But we view housing options on a spectrum that combines different elements of ownership, space, services and finance. In some cases, land may be public while the dwellings on it are private. This spectrum allows a more nuanced analysis of the reality of housing markets in the global south and consideration of a wider range of possibilities."
"The paper is coming out at a very important time, when the discussion about affordability, adequacy and issues of secure tenure have become very critical in global cities of the south," said Sheela Patel, founding member and Chairperson of Slum/Shack Dwellers International. "Cities produce aspirations. If you don't fulfill those aspirations, which start with safe neighborhoods, a good environment, a good education—these are all settlement and neighborhood related amenities and services—you produce discontent."
The study focuses on three actionable approaches city officials can use to address the housing crisis, while highlighting specific examples from around the world:
"These solutions will help urban policymakers in fast-growing cities meet the demand for housing while encouraging economic development and cleaner, safer environments," said King. "Closing the housing gap by providing access to affordable, adequate and secure housing will benefit everyone, not just the poor and underserved, as cities become more productive, environmentally sustainable, and truly places for all."

text: Wild Ride ConneXion!! The Wild Ride introduces ConneXion™, the new coverstock by Brunswick, that provides the wildest response at the break point ever seen in a Brunswick ball. Core The Wild Ride migrates the proven medium RG Torsion Asymmetric core into the High Performance price point. This core/coverstock combination allows the Wild Ride to skid easily through the front part of the lane, dig in aggressively at the end of the mid-lane, then stick strong to to the back-end providing powerful traction hooking action off the break point. The ConneXion coverstock united with the familiar Torsion Asymmetric core provides a ride that is unbelievably wild. Coverstock Eighteen months in development, the new ConneXion coverstock has been fine-tuned to adhere to the lane providing unbelievable traction response from foul line to head pin. The Wild Ride pushes easily through the heads, staying on line to target on both light and heavy oil conditions both when the lanes are freshly oiled or when they''''ve broken down. The wild side of the ConneXion coverstock comes alive when the ball reaches the end of the oil pattern and then aggressively connects to the back-ends. The traction created provides a strong recoil reaction to the pocket that results in the most angular skid-snap reaction ever produced in a Brunswick ball. The aggressive connection of the Wild Ride to the lane surface inspires the confidence in the ball reaction that allows bowlers to play the lanes the way they want to.

Charlie Heaton from the series, Stranger Things, was caught by border police officers at an airport in Los Angeles on the 21st of October as reported by several publications. According to The Sun, the 23-year-old actor flew from London, United Kingdom, to the United States for the second premiere of Stranger Things.
However, US border officials sniffed out drugs on the performer, and he subsequently was denied entrance by the authorities. In a report from TMZ, police did not arrest him, but they did send him back to the United Kingdom.
Heaton isn't the only Hollywood star to get hit with drug charges recently. Police stopped Corey Feldman's tour bus when he traveled across the United States.
Several of the members of his band acquired minor drug charges by the police. Feldman took to Twitter not long after to state they did not arrest him; they merely made him pay a fine.
The announcement of his deportation to London explains why he didn't attend the highly-anticipated premiere in Los Angeles.
On the show, he portrays Johnathan Byers, who is one of the leading protagonists. Not long ago, Heaton divulged on the details of the next season.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, he said that when viewers follow "these characters for a year," they end up meeting Hawkins who "we all know and love."
Additionally, the actor stated that "it's going to be a ride." Earlier in 2017, paparazzi spotted Heaton holding hands along with his co-star, Natalia Dyer, on several occasions which sparked dating rumors.
However, neither party has confirmed the rumors yet. As for Dyer, she managed to make an appearance at the premiere, unlike her rumored boyfriend.

Buckeyes fans will no longer have the opportunity to watch current and future members of the Ohio State football team work out in Ohio Stadium this evening.
Ohio State announced Friday afternoon that due to the threat of inclement weather this evening in Columbus, Friday Night Lights has been moved indoors to the Woody Hayes Athletic Center and will be closed to the public. The team workout that was scheduled to be held at Ohio Stadium prior to Friday Night Lights has also been moved indoors and will be closed to the public due to space limitations.
This marks the first time that Friday Night Lights – which has also previously been held in July – will be held indoors instead of at Ohio Stadium since the event started in 2012.
Unfortunately, this means that both events will also be closed to the media, which means Eleven Warriors will not be able to provide live updates from the scene.
Nonetheless, Eleven Warriors will still be keeping an eye out for several potential commitments that could come from Friday night's event, as the Buckeyes welcome a star-studded list of recruits that includes six official visitors.

5 years ago: Digital Feudalism and How to Avoid It
I learned a lot in those five years and we're still working for the same goals. Surveillance Capitalism is worse than it ever was but we also have new hopes: @Purism, Mastodon, @gnome, DAT, …
The one thing I'd change is to replace "open source" with "ethical technology" and "free (as in freedom)" in my words.
@aral @Purism @gnome today I was told that google G Suite for education has 70m+ customers and that in the USA, two schools in three are using it. I haven't checked this figure, but if it is even close to being true we are placing the data of millions of children into the hands of the largest dealer in data on earth - before we even give them a choice.
A whole generation sold into data serfdom.
We have to get the technology you are talking about into the hands of educators.

Samsung Galaxy, Nokia N97 hop on to Bell network
Bell will soon get to boast of its first-ever Android phone, with Samsung attaching its Galaxy smartphone to the carrier's network. And, this is not all. Bell has gone in for a double whammy by bringing in the Nokia N97 also on to its network.
Thursday was indeed Bell's day with two smartphones brought under its fold. The Samsung Galaxy, in fact, has given the carrier a place to be noted as it is also the first North America-ready version of the device. An Android 1.5 handset, the Galaxy carries with it 850MHz and 1,900MHz 3G. The Galaxy is a smartphone with a bagful of apps, one among them being the Android Market.
Truly a top of the line Android device, the Galaxy on Bell would bring with it a 5 mega pixel camera, GPS, Wi-Fi connectivity and a 480 x 320 AMOLED display. On the storage front is 8GB space tucked along with an optional microSDHC card. The Galaxy on Bell could be yours for a paltry $100, plus a three-year contract. Bell would bring it to you doorstep for a $450, minus the contract.
Meanwhile, the Nokia N97 makes bell the first major North American carrier to adopt the smart device. Besides the 640 x 360 touch display and a 5 mega pixel camera, the N97 boasts of 32GB of internal storage and GPS, Wi-Fi capabilities. Bell attaches the Nokia N97 with a $200 tag for a three-year contract.

Belfast-born Hale joined Blues back in the summer of 2015.BCFC
The 20-year-old will now join NIFL Premiership side Crusaders FC.
Belfast-born Hale came to Blues back in the summer of 2015 after leaving Cliftonville.
His early prolific goalscoring form with Blues Under-18s saw him rewarded with a three-year professional contract which was due to come to an end this summer.
However, the Republic of Ireland Under-21 international was unable to make the breakthrough into the senior ranks and recently spent an extended period out on loan at Derry City.
The Club would like to wish Ronan all the very best in his future career.

So amazing writer Jon Acuff, who I follow on both Twitter and Pinterest, proposed a 30-days of hustle to complete a goal.
I signed up with three major goals in mind, and got the first email today, April 1, 2014.
So today's goal is to pick one of the main goals I have for the year and describe it as "What – is it?"
It's supposed to be specific, so without describing the "Why?" (because apparently that's tomorrow) I will say the goal:
This month, I will complete with my mother her living directives.
The attached photo is very recent, and my mom is sitting on the chair with two of my three kiddos. She's doing well, and I have to take advantage of that blessing.
Here we go!

Oscars, Leap Year & Infertility Share #TwoFertilityWords- Resiliency & Rigorous
It's a special day. It's February 29th, 2016. A leap year. An extra day. An extra day?
It's also the day after the Oscars. Possibly one of the most political Oscars we've ever had. Love it or hate it, there was a lot said last night.
So what, who cares, what does that have to do with infertility?
There's the big picture— not the movies, but the real big picture. And what is that?
Why is infertility so important?
Infertility is not life and death, after all. And many of our loved ones do point that out to us. Typically? It's unhelpful to have it pointed out. It's not cancer. It's not heart disease. In fact, it's barely a disease, right? Wrong.
Infertility is not life or death?
I beg to differ. Ok, I don't beg, I just disagree— strongly.
Infertility is life and death. It's the lack of being able to create a new life, a continuation of our family heritage. It's the death of a dream, more than that; it's the death of a future family.
Yes, it's life and death. And yes, it's a disease
A part of us dies— that part that is yearning to become a parent— when we discover that it's not going to happen easily. Or maybe at all. The realization that there may not be a new life is crushing. Literally, the breath feels like it's leaving the body and never going to return. Literally, it feels that way. Luckily, it's not literal. We do breathe again. We do hope again. We do try again.
The big picture is that it's not just about us. It's about different views and seeing that, really recognizing that. It's the global view and about how we treat the planet. It's about the interpersonal and how we treat each other. It's about us, you and me, and if we are willing to look at ourselves and make a genuine attempt to be honest.
Scary stuff. A lot of it got hit on last night at the Oscars. All the biggest stuff. All the "-ism's". Our deepest fears. The darkest places that we go, together and alone. The places where we shut our eyes tight and where our eyes are wide open.
Chris Rock said a lot last night. We each had our own reactions and responses, no doubt. Funny. Uncomfortable. Astonished. Those were three of my reactions. And I kept watching and I kept listening.
#TwoFertilityWords based on last night's Oscars and in honor of Leap Year- Resiliency & Rigorous.
Resiliency because we can recuperate— I have to believe that damage is not irreparable and that we can, with due diligence, heal. Rigorous because it is not easy, it's work, hard work, sustained hard work. Thinking outside of the box work- willing to give up and up and up work.
We can do better. That's what's necessary.
Leap Year, every four years gives us a gift. A February 29th. Of course it's not an extra day. It's a day, with a different name. Why not take the gift? As a reminder that it's a day, today, a special day. One that will never pass our way again.
Yep, I'm going with Resiliency & Rigorous
For all those parents to be out there- you're my big picture, my global effort. You're my community.
You are me.
