Miley Cyrus Takes on Donald Trump
The singer is the latest celebrity to criticise the Presidential candidate
Donald Trump is playing dirty now that things are getting heated in the presidential race. The Republican Presidential candidate took to Twitter to attack fellow White House hopeful Ted Cruz. He did so by retweeting a photo that compares Heidi Cruz with Trump's own wife, Melania. The text on the photo reads, "No need to 'spill the beans' the images are worth a thousand words."
Trump has been threatening to "spill the beans" on Cruz's wife on social media, but has given no indication as to what his revelations are about.
Singer Miley Cyrus took note of the exchange, and has waded into the political fray, calling the controversial billionaire entrepreneur out for being sexist.
Posting a screenshot of an article about Trump and the image he retweeted, she wrote: "Trump can't stop won't stop saying stupid a** sexist s**t!!!! Comparing two women! Are you f**king kidding! We will not allow you to destroy everything we have overcome as women! I feel as though we are stronger than ever as a unit."
The We Can't Stop hitmaker went on to say:"We have an understanding and respect for one another (more than Trump can say about anyone, his fellow candidates, other races and religions, other public figures, just HUMAN BEINGS in general, and of course animals! Check out his family hunting photos!!!!)
This isn't the first time that Miley has referenced Trump's family hunting photos. The singer, who was recently announced as a new judge on the next series of The Voice, criticised Trump earlier this month, when she posted a photo on Instagram of the Republican candidate's two sons with the dead carcass of a leopard they had shot on a hunting trip. She captioned the shot, "F**k u."
"It's absolute insanity that this has gone on this long and far! Wake me up from this nightmare someone PLEASE!" she ended her rant saying.
Trump has clearly stepped on some influential toes on his campagin as Presidential hopeful.

Listening in on rehearsals for the new Jake Heggie Ahab Symphony a companion to his opera Moby-Dick), I wrote. Tonight (24 April 2013), if you're not able to attend in person, you can watch and listen to the live streamed performance of the world premiere at 8 pm CST at this link, featuring tenor Richard Croft, the University of North Texas Symphony Orchestra and Grand Chorus and conductor David Itkin: http://recording.music.unt.edu/live. In the meantime, from me:Characteristic Frequencies
Light, to begin, as though it were the dawn,
And whispered voices breathed themselves awake,
And sentience would rise and fall and make
A storm, turn faint again, scarce moving on–
On lyric waves these messages were sent,
Foretelling danger and the pangs of grief,
Then, gentler, sing of comfort and relief,
Follow each graceful passage where it went–
This, while the song comes lapping up at me,
Comes pulling like the most insistent tide,
Whether the sound grows deep or thin and wide,
Draws me on deeper in this sonic sea–
Seek me no more, but let me run aground,

With the help of new technology, three experts in ancient Hebrew have been able to discern a different reading of the passage from a fragment of one of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Prof. Elisha Qimron had been working on the final stages of the second volume of the new edition of the Hebrew writings of the Dead Sea Scrolls when a particular fragment of a Dead Sea Scroll had been posted on the joint website of Google and the Israel Antiquities Authority − the Leon Levy Dead Sea Scrolls Digital Library website.
The website features very high resolution photographs of the Dead Sea Scrolls using a special camera, which not only records the condition of the actual scrolls to help preserve them, but also brings to light for the first time faded and hidden letters.
The fragment, found in Cave 4 at Qumran, measures a paltry 7 by 10 centimeters and is very poorly preserved. However, one look at the new photograph of the fragment on the site was enough for Qimron to put off publication of the volume to try and decipher the text.
Qimron sent the photograph to Hanan Ariel and Alexey Yuditsky − two of his assistants on the Hebrew historical dictionary project he had helped head for the Hebrew Language Academy. "He said he wanted each of us to read it independently. We each read the letters differently, but after negotiations we agreed on a wording. After we stopped debating and agreed, we immediately understood what was written," Ariel said.

Cinnabon was first featured on "Breaking Bad's" penultimate episode, "Granite State," when Saul Goodman contemplated his future and new identity outside of Albuquerque. "If I'm lucky, in a month from now, best-case scenario, I'm managing a Cinnabon in Omaha," he says.
"Cinnabon is an all-American brand that requires no explaining — that fact appealed to us greatly. We loved the idea of our Saul Goodman character taking on a secret identity as the manager of a mall bakery, making a delicious product that's well-known to everybody everywhere. And fortunately, the nice folks at Cinnabon allowed us to make that happen," said "Better Call Saul" creators and executive producers Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould.
"This has been such a sweet collaboration for AMC and we are thrilled that Cinnabon is working with us to give something special back to the 'Saul' fans. Vince and Peter have crafted an incredible and cinematic opening sequence for 'Saul's' first episode and we are so excited to bring even a small part of that to life through this partnership," said Linda Schupack, EVP of Marketing for AMC.
"Being part of a partnership where each brand has a beloved cult following is tremendous. And it provides an incredible opportunity to connect and share all the new things that are happening at Cinnabon," said Kristen Hartman, SVP of Marketing for Cinnabon.
Additional details on AMC and Cinnabon's partnership are below:
· FREE MINIBON IN-BAKERY GIVEAWAY – Monday, February 9, 5:00-9:00 p.m.
All participating U.S. Cinnabon locations will give one free MiniBon to each Guest who comes into the bakery between 5:00-9:00pm. Guests are encouraged to grab their free sweet treat and head home to watch the second premiere episode at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.

* Grand Prize Winner will win a Cinnabon fulfillment card entitling them to one (1) free Cinnabon® Cinnapack® per month for 12 consecutive months, redeemable at participating Cinnabon bakeries.
"Better Call Saul" is a prequel to the award-winning series "Breaking Bad," whose creator Vince Gilligan and writer/producer Peter Gould serve as showrunners of the premiere season. The story is set six years before Saul Goodman (Odenkirk) meets Walter White. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny and hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside and often against Jimmy is fixer Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character first introduced in "Breaking Bad." The new series will track Jimmy's transformation into a man who puts the criminal in "criminal attorney." The series is executive produced by Gilligan, Gould, Mark Johnson ("Breaking Bad," Diner, Rain Man) and Melissa Bernstein ("Breaking Bad," "Rectify," "Halt and Catch Fire") with "Breaking Bad" alums Thomas Schnauz and Stewart A. Lyons as co-executive producers for Sony Pictures Television. The series airs Mondays at 10:00 p.m. on AMC.

An awesome article on Destructoid covers everything about the Diablo III music and sound effects. It's a massive piece; four separate interviews on a single page, featuring numerous questions each for Russell Brower, Joseph Lawrence, Derek Duke, and Lawrence Juber. I can only scratch the surface with a quote so it's highly recommended that you dig into it yourself. A couple of questions from the start with Russel Brower.
It was important to give Diablo III its own "sound"— not only via the compositions, but even in the way it was recorded. To complement the "bronze-age" sound of Warcraft, and the "space-opera" sound of StarCraft, we decided to record this score in concert hall that relies on the oldest acoustical traditions known to humankind. The Pacific Symphony performed the score in the Segerstrom Concert Hall in Costa Mesa. All of the orchestral music was recorded live, with nearly 100 musicians in the space, playing together. This technique provides a subtlety to intonation, ensemble and timbre which is not achievable via modern studio multi-track recording.
We also record two choirs: one for The Heavens, and one for The Hells. Working somewhat against conventional expectations, Hell is a beautiful and seductive sound, provided by Dublin's uniquely astounding choral group ANÚNA, while Heaven is represented by the powerful and mostly-male subset of the London Voices, which we recorded in the legendary Studio 2 at Abbey Road.
The Composers also performed a great deal of the music in the studio; I even took a turn on the great Segerstrom pipe organ!
On the hour-long guitar recording from Matt Uelmen used in the soundtrack:
If memory serves, it was late 2007 and Derek Duke and I had been witness to much of Matt's early demo work on Diablo III. With the DNA of the Diablo music clearly so present in Matt's mind, we invited him to pour his "musical stream-of-consciousness" into a microphone. What followed was a musical tour of the themes which were forefront in Matt's mind at the time. He provided a running commentary as he played, noting the significance of each motif and even some clues to what changes he was percolating upon in the moment.
Prior to the BlizzCon debut of playable Diablo III content, then again during final music production in late 2011, I had the privilege of re-visiting these recordings, and creating an epic "mash-up" of both Matt's and Laurence's guitar musings.
Blizzard is a collaborative and iterative culture; I can't think of a more fitting example than the Diablo III musical score.
Crazy the number of interviews and depth of info Blizzard has rolled out for us over the past couple of weeks, now that the wraps are off and the full game is nearly here. Remember all those months of Diablo droughts™ we suffered through back in 2008-2011, when were excited just to see a new @Diablo tweet about nothing in particular?
As for the Diablo sound and music, I remain of the opinion that I have yet to hear any of it. I've heard some in sample tracks, but in the actual game? While playing the beta I turned down the volume on dialogue and sound effects and turned it up on background sounds and music, and still hardly caught more than faint ambient creaking sounds and wind. I'm curious to hear the musical presentation change (or not) in the final game.
It's interesting to compare to Torchlight 2, which I've been beta testing for the past week. TL 2's musical direction is in the style of Diablo I and Diablo II; not only because Matt Uelmen created them all, but because of how TL2's music and sound is presented. In TL2, as in D1 and D2, the music is present and audible and feels like a big part of the game world, and does much to set the mood and tone and feeling of levels.
In D3, conversely, the music is sparse and used only in key moments, while most of the sound is ambient background effects. I think this was an intentional choice by the developers to focus the player's attention more on the car crash sound effects of the skills, the monster noises, the sound of destructibles being destroyed, etc. All those sounds are fairly non-stop in D3, and a strong musical score would just clash with them.

Rose Arianna McGowan (born September 5, 1973) is an American actress and singer. She is best known for her role as Paige Matthews in The WB Television Network supernatural drama series Charmed.
She portrayed Cherry Darling in Planet Terror.
Born on September 5, 1973 to Terri and Daniel McGowan (of French and Irish origin, respectively), Rose Arianna McGowan is the second eldest of six siblings. She was raised within the Italian chapter of the Children of God, an extremist Christian cult.During the early 1980s, her family severed ties with the community and migrated to Eugene, Oregon, USA. Following the divorce of her parents, Rose relocated to Gig Harbor, Washington, to live with her grandmother. At age 14, McGowan was accused of drug use by a family friend and committed to rehabilitation. She has consistently maintained the decision was unjustified. Upon release, she spent a year without a home and was emancipated from her parents by the age of 15. Her early formal education included attendance at Roosevelt High School and Nova Alternative High School. Further education included qualifications as a licensed beauty operator.
McGowan's career as an actor began with The Doom Generation (1995). Originally intended for Jordan Ladd, the character of Amy Blue was, coincidentally, awarded to McGowan by an associate of director Gregg Araki. For her performance, she was nominated at the 1995 Independent Spirit Awards for Best Debut Performance. Subsequently cast in Wes Craven's Scream (1996), she experienced further success when the project defied expectations to become one of the highest grossing films of the year. The innovative career of McGowan was overshadowed throughout much of the 1990s by her high-profile relationship with musician Brian Warner (aka Marilyn Manson). Strong performances in Going All the Way (1997), Lewis & Clark & George (1997), Southie (1998) and Jawbreaker (1999) were largely unseen by the general public. When the relationship ended between Rose and Manson in 2001, she remarked: "There is great love, but our lifestyle difference is, unfortunately, even greater".Rose continued to work solidly, appearing in a string of soft-sounding studio and independent films. Performances from this period included: a political activist in Showtime's The Killing Yard (2001) (TV), a grifter in Strange Hearts (2002) and a factory worker in "Stealing Bess" (aka Vacuums (2003)). She was re-introduced to the mainstream as Paige Matthews in Aaron Spelling's "Charmed" (1998), a popular television series for which she devoted five consecutive years. When "Charmed" finished its run in 2006, McGowan emerged in top form. Critics praised her efforts in Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror (2007), and Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof (2007).
In several interviews, McGowan has expressed a disdain for Hollywood, yet despite this she has maintained a strong work ethic. Her upcoming projects include an adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart (2012) and a romantic thriller titled Napa (2012).
- Auditioned for the role of Lisa Rowe in "Girl, Interrupted", which eventually went to Angelina Jolie.
- She won the role of Amy Blue in "The Doom Generation", after Jordan Ladd backed out.
- Was engaged to Marilyn Manson. [1998-2001]
- Modeled as a child.
- Second oldest of six children.
- She and Marilyn Manson announced that they were splitting up. [18 Jan 2001]
- Told Howard Stern that she broke up with Marilyn Manson because she tired of the rock and roll lifestyle he engaged in. When pressed further, she admitted that drug use was a big part of that lifestyle. [Oct 2001]
- A tattoo of a woman on her right shoulder has been surgically removed.
- October 2013, she marries artist, Davey Detail in Los Angeles.

Mortice locks
Mortice locks, in addition to the surface locks, are among the most common door closure. It can be said, that currently each doors are equipped with this type of lock, while surface locks are using as a additional protection, particularly in external door.
Rules for selection of mortice locks:
- Dimensions of locks:
- Locks span – size A, the distance between the axis of the handle, and the axis of the key (or insert, WC handle), the most common spans in Poland are 60 mm, 72 mm, 90 mm, in Germany popular is 90 mm span – in Poland found in imported doors and locks. We recommend the use of 72 mm locks, because it seems that the elongated handle with wheelbarrow looks most proportionally.
- Distance from the face of the lock to the axis of the handle - size B, the most common span is 50 mm or 60 mm. In narrow locks used in PCV and aluminium joinery this amount is 25 mm or 35 mm.
Locks for wooden doors
- Savings locks- lock equipped only with ratchet, which is opened by handle. Because of lack of closing ratchet by a key or insert door can not be closed by a lock This type of locks are used in inside doors without necessity of key locking.
- Valve lock – lock equipped with valve operated by handle and ratchet locking by a key. Ratchet locking mechanism and key come as a set with lock and they're selling jointly. These locks are used as a interior locks, in rooms that do not require higher protection.
- Lock with insert (cylinder lock) – this lock require cylinder insert for proper operation. Advantage of this solution is easy possibility of exchanging key by exchanging the insert itself. Room protection is much better, If used can be any insert from very wide range, also certified. Opening up even the simplest of inserts without the key is quite difficult. In addition, cylinder insert keys can open Master key system, several locks can be fitted with inserts opened for the use of the same key etc. This locks are usually selling without cylinder insert, is have to be bought separately (we offer very wide range of cylinder inserts, different lengths and safety classes, inserts can make master key systems).
- Without-key lock (WC) – ratchet of this lock is closed by a handle-blockade. This locks are used only in bathrooms.
- Multi-point locks are the modern way of crimp the door. This locks are used in front doors or another, from which we require increased resistance to burglary. The lock complex consisting of one or two locks and additional hooks performs the functions of mortise lock and can replace the surface lock.
We offer a very wide selection of strip locks many domestic and foreign manufacturers, including:
- Single-insert locks
- Double-insert locks
- Double-insert locks with lower lock blockade
- Hook lock with locking pins
- Locks hook with a locking wedge
- Certified locks
Dimensions of slatted locks comprise the following range:
- 72/55 16x2300 size
- 72/55 20x2300 size
- 72/55 16x1728 size
- 72/55 16x2100 size
- 72/65 16x2300 size
- 72/65 20x2300 size
- 72/65 16x1728 size
- 72/65 20x1728 size
- 90/50 18x2040 size
- 90/50 22x565 size
- 72/50 22x565 size and other
Gate locks
- Gate lock – lock used for large, heavy wooden doors, differs from the usual mortise lock in large size and a larger diameter mandrel handle (10 mm). It occurs in a variety valvular or drum and ratchet or roller (roller, valvular locks on the picture)
- Lock of sliding gate – lock used in sliding gates, lockable on hook bolt
Locks for PCV or ALUMINIUM doors
This is a very wide range of locks for use in PVC and aluminum joinery. Locks are adapted to the appropriate profiles of PVC and aluminum. Locks of this type differ considerably in the closing mechanism, corps dimensions, shape of the front lock etc. We offer a very wide range of locks for PVC and aluminum.
Locks for steel doors
This type of locks are used in steel doors, there are several variations of this type of locks.
- Determination of the lock side (left-right). Currently, most mortise locks are manufactured as universal, which mean you can change the lock right on the left by rotating pawl / such action, it takes three seconds and requires no tools/, however, some locks are made as left or right, then you must specify the required page by the scheme:
- lever (with lever / without lever) lever it is a opening pawl mechanism (normally opened by handle) by turning the key in the opposite direction to close. Currently most of the locks are equipped in levers, however, in particular, when we want to use knob in door we have to check, If lock has the lever, because without the lever it won't be possible to open the closed but unlocked doors.
- Color and cover of the lock - Here are critical aesthetic considerations, you must choose the color of the lock and the striker to best harmonize with the color of the door and the frame. Available are painted locks (colors: brown, white, black), galvanized, and also with brass front.
Locks differ in the way the covering, may be present as: painted /white, brown, black/, galvanized, brass. We offer also corrosion resistance, locks with brass elements, for use in watercraft and stainless steel locks.
For production companies, we offer the locks in bulk without packaging, also without braces and screws - special prices.

Up to that time, instant messaging and the information services on it seemed much less controlled then the Internet was in China. The Party and government learned its lesson from the SARS epidemic. Afterwards the media watchdogs turned their attention to cell phone messaging, adding monitoring, filtering and even at times "cool it" warnings and informative messages sent out by the local government or police to the populace.
Cell phone messaging had already become a big business in China. The cell phone companies even employed staff poets to create elegant sayings that people can exchange with one another. Incurring telecommunications charges, of course. This early cellphone poetry may have inspired others to turn their hand to it. The poem spread virally as many people waited anxiously at home. Their distrust of official news media made the messages all the more credible.
Criticizing the regime is one thing, but laughing at it is probably even more serious.
Here are some examples of popular poetry/doggerel that circulated in China during SARS.
Beijing Voices on SARS: Instant Messages Translated
A translation of a collection of cell phone instant messages transcribed on emails now circulating in China. Some of these class messages can be found in Chinese at http://chinese.wooster.edu/files/jokefolder/sars.gb.html
Beijing has already become an area that has "fallen" to SARS. The cell phone tribe doesn't feel lonely for it exchanges instant messages of friendship, to please themselves and others, which reflect the feelings of Beijing people these days.
The Instant Message Closest to the Masses:
Until we met SARS we didn't realize how valuable breathing free really is!
Until we wore a face mask, we didn't realize how valuable our true face is!
Our thoughts during the emergency period show just how valuable friendship really is!
The Simplest Instant Message
White radish, tangerine skin, ginger, scallion bulb, and coriander stir out spirit. To help protect everyone's respiratory passages, we resort to fire and water. We suggest everyone drink hot soup.
Most Classic Short Message (Lost Something in Translation):
A web citizen who buries himself in the classics discovered that China's first reference to SARS [abbreviated feidian for "atypical" — literally not classic] is in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Cao Cao was suddenly attacked, but Dian Wei gave his life to save Cao Cao. After Cao Cao was out of danger, he realized that Dian Wei had no weapon. Cao Cao cried out. "Dian was awesome! If I had not Dian [feidian — SARS abbreviation] I would certainly have died!"
[For more on Dian Wei see http://www.kongming.net/novel/sgyy/dianwei.php ]
Most Melodious Rhyme [but not a melodious translation]
SARS is so very dangerous
Some are already afflicted
To avoid harm
We must wear a mask
But only by maintaining a calm state of mind
Can we avoid being harmed by SARS
Finally I wish you happiness each and every day.
Moonlight thick as wine
The colors of spring, the wind in the willows
The peach blossoms opened some time ago
Don't know if you noticed
A virus very rare arose
Now chaos is everywhere!
Never mind. Just disinfect by washing your hands.
The Instant Message Most Like a Story:
The old lady who has heard so much about SARS [ pronounced feidian, the same pronunciation as "waste electricity" in Mandarin Chinese], said "If you don't want to waste electricity, then don't turn on the lights!" Beijing citizens, politically aware as they are, would not forget to look out for political trends even in the middle of the SARS epidemic. Here are a few examples:
Idealism chapter
[A parody of former Chinese Communist Party Secretary Jiang Zemin's "Three Represents" philosophy — that the Chinese Communist Party represents advanced productive forces, advanced culture and the interests of the vast majority of the Chinese people. For background on the Three Represents see http://www.iisg.nl/~landsberger/jzmt.html ]
The "Three Represents" of SARS
SARS represents the demand of a special virus for development.
SARS represents the advancement of a culture of terror
SARS represents the basic interests of the broad masses of wild animals
Political Chapter
The Center is so troubled
This has already brought some officials low
Too bad about the Minister of Health
His numbers were a bit too low
That Party Secretary Xuenong
Didn't do his job well.
The core of the fourth generation leadership, Chairman Hu Jintao
Only wants the efforts to halt the epidemic to bear some fruit
But it is late! News of more cases arrives, with still more to come!
[Note: The reference Xuenong is to Meng Xuenong, the Beijing mayor who was fired along with the Health Minister to take the blame for the SARS cover up.]
Bureaucratic Chapter
The Party can't stop officials from eating and drinking at public expense
but SARS did!
The Party can't stop junketeering officials,
but SARS did!
The Party can't stop endless futile meetings,
but SARS did!
The Party can't stop the deception of superiors and the cheating of subordinates,
but SARS did!
The Party can't stop prostitution,
but SARS did!
"党治不了的, 非典都治"
Epidemic Situation Message
Guandong got SARS then Beijing caught it
The government isn't so strict now, so the media dares to speak up
Many people have SARS now, the hospitals are full
The doctors and nurses are having a tough time,
the front line shock troops confronting danger
The masses are scared out of their wits,
wearing masks to cover their faces
International organizations have come to take charge,
SARS will soon be brought under control
Take your Chinese medicine boiled in the pot,
be sure to get some exercise.
PRC National anthem ["Marching Song of the Volunteers" parody message]
Arise, you people who don't want to get SARS, make our contributions an anti-SARS Great Wall. The Chinese nation is at the moment of its greatest peril, everyone must yell their loudest yell, Close our doors!, Close our buildings!, Seal off our city!
[The real "Marching Song of the Volunteers" a song of popular resistance to Japanese invaders that became the PRC national anthem. A elderly Taiwanese man told me that some residents of Taipei sang it to welcome the KMT coming to Taiwan in late 1945 — only to discover later that it wasn't a song the KMT liked to hear!]
Arise, Ye who refuse to be slaves!
With our very flesh and blood,
Let us build our new Great Wall!
The peoples of China are in the most critical time,
From each one the urgent call for action comes forth.
Millions of souls with one heart,
Braving the enemy's gunfire, March on!
Braving the enemy's gunfire, March on!
March on!
March on!
On! ]
Poetry Chapter
In the capital city Beijing
Sickness for one thousand li all round
The virus now spreads ten thousand li
Both within the city wall and without
People's hearts are trembling
About the City wall there is a great clamor
People eat isastis root to fortify themselves
They eat their vitamins
The will to health and SARS test one another
No peaceful days
As I watch the gloves and the face masks
selling out so very quickly


text: From Outer Space to Hotel Floors 08/31/2018 By Kadie Yale 35 Shares When Utah State University's interior design students were asked to create a rug design for the 2018 Durkan competition, then-junior Brianne Brooks jumped at the opportunity. While product design is outside of her typical coursework, it was an exciting experience. "For me personally, I love pattern," Brooks explained, "but for a rug, you can't just have a pattern. It was hard for me to create something that wasn't just a geometric pattern. However, once I understood [Durkan's] products and what they do, it made it easier for me." Brooks rug design was announced as the first place winner this summer. The award provided her with a $2,500 NEWH Scholarship, and a trip to Las Vegas in May to attend HD Expo. Rug Design from Space Inspired by outer space, her winning design blends shades of grey with vibrant greens that "emulates the bright, unexpected bolts of color in the dark void of space," reads Durkan's release on the design. "My rug was inspired by space nebulas," Brooks explained. "I love the contrast between the bright colors and the dark of space. I really wanted my rug to be very modern, contemporary, and cutting edge." Heading into her senior year at Utah State University, the Durkan win is just the tip of the iceberg for Brooks. While she isn't closing any doors which may open along the way, being exposed to the ins and outs of hotel product design has helped her to move towards her future. "I feel like I'm pretty open with any opportunities that come my way. But my dream would be to do hospitality [design], I think hotel design would be really fun."

I got a call from 70000023. It was a man with an Indian accent. He said my computer was sending out information. I've worked in the IT field for a while, and have had to clean up many computers from scams like this. This is called Ransomware. Do not talk to them, and do not give them any information.
Weird calls from this number. I added it to my block list.
I just recieved a call from this # & a male with an India accent stated that he was with Windows & that my computer is infected with make ware & wanted me to turn it on so he could walk me through fixing the issues. I replied, that is impossible. He asked if I thought he was lying, I stated; Yes,I do & I will not turn on my computer. He then hung up without a cordial end to the call. My computer is new with protection & has not been linked to the Internet outside of the initial set-up that was done in store. This is a SCAM...
Wanted me to sit on my PC and do stuff. Started to ask about his company's website and name, he hung up. I believe they are trying to record some words out of my mouth.

A foreign person I could barely understand told me NY computer had been sending error messages to them for a long time. Said I needed to get their help very soon as it was a threat to Nat'l security. . . Then he asked me if I even had a computer. OMG...He must think I am a total moron!! LOL
this obviously isn't a full phone number, so i didn't answer it. they, of course, didn't leave a msg ... it's a sure sign of a scam.
I received 2 calls today from this number. The person said there was a problem with my credit card and I need to give them my CC number to verify myself.
Total scam don't fall for it.
He said my computer sent him an alert that there was a security threat
I told him to take me off his list he laughed and told me no and then said he was giving my number to everyone in the room to call me every day
I hear a brief inaudible foreign voice and then nothing.

If we'd ask your mom what you do for a living, what would she reply? Chances are she'd oversimplify your role. Alas, we too as social media managers don't escape this simplification coming from our parents. "She puts posts on Facebook all day", she thinks.
Unfortunately, some brands tend to act like mothers. We can't blame them, because, despite the growing digitalisation in marketing, some marketers just haven't taken a deep dive into social media.
So here's to all the "mom's" among the brands. No, we don't just post things on social media:
- We investigate your brand
- We look at what might trigger people psychologically
- We play with words to make the trigger stronger
- We curate images because after all, they say more than a thousand words
- Sometimes we even take matters in our own hands and produce images, hell, why not video
- We post (correct, mom's!) but doing so at just the right time, and pushing towards a broader audience so a brand gets the most boost out of its media budget
Don't even get us started on that last one. Paid advertising on social media has indeed become accessible to all, but to master, it is no easy game.
We love our moms, and we'd love to talk to you about what makes social media a true expertise.

BIR Cagayan de Oro City holds 'Panaghinabi kang Commissioner Billy'
CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY-- True to his promise of paying this side of the country a visit, Commissioner of Internal Revenue Caesar R. Dulay held a dialogue with all the stakeholders of Revenue Region (RR) No. 16 � Cagayan de Oro City last 30 March 2017 at the Cattleya Function Room of N Hotel.
Dubbed as Panaghinabi kang Commissioner Billy (translated as a conversation with Commissioner Billy), the gathering was in keeping with the Commissioner's wish to hold talks with all the stakeholders of the revenue region, especially the taxpayers, to enlist their support for the BIR's tax collection efforts for this year.
The Commissioner was supposed to meet the stakeholders last 28 February 2017 during the region's tax campaign kickoff but was aborted in the last minute after he was summoned to attend a congressional hearing on the same date.
In his usual jovial mood, Commissioner Dulay thanked the select group for responding to the invitation of the revenue region. Turning serious, he told them that Cagayan de Oro City will be the next Mega City and that the future of the City is in their hands and the generations that will follow their footsteps.
Cagayan de Oro is a first class highly-urbanized city and the capital of the province of Misamis Oriental. It is a chartered city where governance is independent and separate from the province. It is also known as The City of Golden Friendship and other monickers such as The Adventure Capital of the Philippines, River Rafting Capital of the Philippines, The Heart of Northern Mindanao, The Gateway to the Land of Promise, and The City of Gold.
He said that the main mandate of the BIR is to collect taxes and that it provides around 80% of government tax revenues to fund the expenditures of government - from the payment of the salaries of government workers to the building of roads and other infrastructures. The remaining 20% is sourced from other revenue generating agencies like the Bureau of Customs (BoC).
The tax agency collected P1.576 trillion last year as against its collection target of P1.620 trillion, or an achievement level of around 97%. Media, however, zeroed in on its (3%) failure to achieve its collection goal.
BIR Cagayan de Oro City collected P12.47 billion in 2016 as compared to its tax take of P10.75 billion in 2015, posting a growth rate of 15.96% or an increase of P1.72 billion. This year, the revenue region has been assigned a collection goal of P12.87 billion.
As an organization, the BIR is tasked to collect P1.829 trillion to which Commissioner Dulay said that it is precisely for that reason (collection goal) that he asked for the dialogue to appeal to all the stakeholders to help the tax agency achieve the said target, adding that the funds to be raised will be used to support the programs of the administration of President Duterte.
He asked everyone to pay their taxes correctly to help fund the government's massive infrastructure spending that will benefit the country and most especially Mindanao.
Commissioner Dulay quipped, We appeal for your support and cooperation. We do not have to push you and this is exactly what this conversation is all about. I am humbled no end by your all-important presence in this gathering.
The Commissioner closed the dialogue with an assurance that the BIR � the regional and district officials � will be fair in making assessments and truthful in dealing with taxpayers.
The Revenue District Officers of the six (6) Revenue District Offices (RDOs) of RR No. 16 � Cagayan de Oro City are: Rolando C. Ompoc, RDO No. 97 � Gingoog City; Venerando B. Homez, RDO No. 98 � Cagayan de Oro City; Samer R. Muti, RDO No. 99 � Malaybalay City; Noel B. Gonzales, RDO No. 100 - Ozamis City; Amanoding D. Esmail, RDO No. 101 � Iligan City; and Nasrollah B. Conding, RDO No. 102 � Marawi City.
Panaghinabi kang Commissioner Billy was conceptualized to hold a friendly and caring dialogue, reach out to taxpayers of Region X, from as far as and including Misamis Occidental, Lanao Del Norte and Sur, Bukidnon, and the Island of Camiguin, and enlist collective support for the collection initiatives of the Bureau. It was staged on short notice with the collaborative efforts of responsible regional and district officials and personnel who gracefully overcame limited preparation time. The efforts produced an A-1 ensemble of taxpayers and stakeholders interacting with Commissioner Billy.

12 Reasons You Should Visit Wales This Summer
Wales - rainy, cold, lots of sheep... Right?
Wrong! Wales has heaps of culture, celebrating history, food and music, just to name a few things. Not to mention spectacular scenery, and heaps of activities to get stuck into. There are loads of hidden treasures waiting to be discovered, just over the Severn bridge.
So instead of the hassle of going abroad this summer, why not visit Wales this summer? Read on for some inspiration for your new favourite summer holiday.
1. Castles
Image Credit: nicolerugman
Did you know that Wales has 641 castles? Some of the most well-known include:
- Cardiff Castle
- Castell Coch
- Cyfarthfa Castle
- Caerphilly Castle
These hundreds of ancient monuments dotted around Wales have a rich history, and host a multitude of events that run throughout the year. At Cardiff Castle this summer, there will be open air theatre for the long sunny afternoons. For the kids – or the big kids out there – there's also a medieval melee to see some brave knights in action. And that's just at one castle!
From a Festival of Archaeology to art exhibitions, Wales does its heritage proud by preserving its ancient ruins and providing fun ways of learning about history for adults and children alike.]
2. Foodies

3. Beaches

Oh we do love to be beside the seaside! Don't let the stories about Welsh weather put you off experiencing some of the best beaches in the UK.
Beaches in Wales are the perfect getaway because they can cater for any event. Families won't be disappointed with sand castle building, donkey rides and classic tea with chips by the sea. And for quieter days, theses beaches are the ideal place to settle down with a book and watch life go by – until the tide comes in of course!
Places such as Swansea Bay and Gower are award winning beaches, including facilities for families such as access to public transport, watersports and wheelchair access. Gower was even included in The Times' Top 10 Coastal Walks and 25 Best Beaches in the World. So what are you waiting for?

Make a day of Wales and take on the best family experiences:
Test your luck and go dolphin spotting in Cardigan Bay and marvel at the cathedral cave in the Dan yrOgof Caves. Make like a monkey with Go Ape; this obstacle course takes you through the mud and up into the tree tops.
Take two experiences in one day and go to Oakwood Park as well as Folly Farm – they're next to each other! It's sure to be a day that younger members of the family will never forget.

Millennium Reserve features Bronzeville Historical Society Jan. 2016
Excerpt from Newsletter:
Williams is founder of the Bronzeville Historical Society, and the cottage building is the organization's home. The Society is located on Illinois Senator Stephen A. Douglas' former homestead; the landmark site is adjacent to Lake Michigan and the Illinois Central Railroad. A few yards from the cottage building lay a couple of African Heritage Gardens and a Migratory Bird Oasis. (The Oasis is a sanctuary for more than 20 species). The constant arrival of birds to the Oasis and gardens echo the history of the Great Migration, the movement of six million African-Americans out of the rural Southern United States to the urban Northeast, Midwest and West that largely occurred between 1910 and 1970. That history is central to the experience of African-Americans in Chicago who, like so many others, came here from another place.

Yellow-rumped Warblers (What were you thinking?) are not nesting residents here at the Audubon Center at Francis Beidler Forest, but that does not prevent them from doning their breeding plummage prior to their trips north. The male in the image perched just outside our open office window. Maybe the cool air that we were enjoying was also delaying the Yellow-rumped Warbler's departure.
Yellow-rumped Warblers are common and easily-seen as they congregate in small flocks. They are likely the only warbler to be observed in the winter. In preparation for their trips north, they have been dining on a combination of berries and insects. They will nest in the norther coniferous and coniferous/deciduous forests. Unfortunately, in the east the species is a common cowbird host, which means they may raise a large cowbird chick instead of their own chicks.
Meanwhile, our resident songbirds are busy building their nests in the swamp and the neighboring forest. A pair of Prothonotary Warblers were seen pulling bill-stuffing quantities of liverwort from the bases of trees and cypress knees.
Maybe when all the Butter Butts depart, the warmer weather will finally set in!

Type: Red vs Blue (vs White)
Synopsis: This show is about a high school boy named Natsuru who wake up one morning and finds out he's become a high school girl with a tremendous chest. He also finds out that he's now a "Kampfer," or a new member in a battle to the death and can shoot fire. He fights other girls in the same situation, and they become friends, and they sometimes make out with each other. Total girl on girl action. But then you remember that girl Natsuru is a boy, and you feel kinda weird about it. Then you try to justify your feeling to yourself. Then you end up seriously reflection on these strange emotions you've always hide from yourself and….wait, what where we talking about?
Pros: I really ended up liking this anime. It's funny, it's sexy, and it's a lot more clever than I expected it to be. The first half of the show has a serious superhero quality to it. Natsuru ends up getting into a love triangle with the girl he likes, his female alter ego, and his male self. Classic comic book stuff. It was very fun watching Natsuru try to deal with having to turn into a girl at random times. He also develops an interesting relationship with Akane, another "Kampfer," who become his closest confidant. Even when other girls where added, Akane and her bad ass alter ego stood out. I could easily imagine Natsuru falling for her or Shizuku. Halfway through, the anime turns into a harem show, which just adds more layers of fan service based humor. This show knows how to titillate properly. I really, really, really hope that this gets a second season down the line.
Cons: For a show about a mysterious battle between "Kampfers," the actions scenes aren't really impressive. They're just sorta there. It's also not explained why Kampfers are only allowed to be girls, or why Natsuru was chosen. I'm assuming that's for future episodes (if any). The show does explain why Kampfer are battling in the first place, but this explanation is far from satisfying. The final bad guy in all this is predictable, but the way Natsuru reacts to this person is bothersome.
Watch it?: It's almost as good as Red vs. Blue (4/5)
MVP: Akane Mishima (Kampfer)
Bang Bang
Best Episode: Ep. 8 "Sweetheart: The First Date" (don't you hate it when people don't know if it's a date or not?)

You sold your
property and agreed to finance your buyer (carry back paper) for some or most of the purchase price, you've done
your "due diligence" your buyer appears to be a good credit risk and promises to make all the payments on time.
Life is full of changes, the old proverb "the only consistent thing is change" is as true today as ever. Some
changes we control, others are beyond our control; changes in health, job transfers, loss of employment, divorce
etc. there are three common outcomes:
The first scenario is easy, no further explanation is
needed the seller receives all of their payments as agreed.
The other two scenarios however require some explanation.
The biggest factor is the amount of time that has passed since the sale of the "partial".
Let's discuss an early payoff first; as the payors makes
their regular monthly payments their principal balance reduces according to the original amortization schedule,
the investors principal balance reduces likewise however at a different rate because the note was purchased at a
discount (please refer to amortization schedule).
We'll assume the payors sells or refinance the property
24 months later, the payoff balance according to their original amortization schedule is $196,519.89, the payoff
balance on the investors amortization schedule (for the partial purchase) is $90,852.74 that means the investor
is paid off and the original note seller receives the difference = $105,823.48. It's that simple!
The buyer has the same payoff balance they originally
agreed to, the investor earned a good rate of return; the note seller received the cash he needed now plus the
balance when the note was paid off.
In the event of a default or foreclosure, the scenario is
identical with one caveat. We will make "best effort" to service and collect the account. In the event we are
unable to collect the payments the note seller will be contacted and given numerous opportunities to "step in"
to assist in collecting the payments.
Remember: This is still your note, you are in
1st place, and we have an "assignment" but like any other lender (mortgage, auto or otherwise) we
never want the collateral. The real estate is merely the security to assure repayment. We don't want the real
estate; we want the payments that we purchased.
So what are your options?
The possibilities are too numerous to consider, but
again; remember we never want the real estate.
In the event the note seller does not wish to exercise
any options to mitigate the situation we will foreclose; the property will be sold at a foreclosure auction for
the current balance on the original note (in our example $105,823.48) the note seller will receive all proceeds
over the outstanding balance.
In all fairness; it must be said in the unlikely event
the note seller refuses to participate or pay off the partial, we must foreclose on YOUR note to recoup our
investment. If the property does not sell and becomes an REO; proceeds from any future sale or purchase money
mortgage will not benefit the note seller.
And that's how a "Partial Purchase" works. You truly can
have your cake and eat it too.
PS: let's talk
about the "discount"; contrary to popular belief and unlimited misinformation on the Internet a discount on a
payment stream of any type (seller financed note, lottery annuity payout, disability annuity payout) is NOT a
result of gouging or someone taking advantage of the seller! The DISCOUNT is a result of the difference in the
interest-rate being charged and the required "yield" or rate of return for the buyer. In this economy the cost
of money is high so minimize the discount and sell only what you need to.

To Og7701, I found your comment about the image I put into the Clearwater County, Idaho page in the Wiki. I uploaded the image from the Idaho State Forestry division, with their permission to use their pictures. The image I used was one of these and they had it labled, Clearwater CO. Landscape near Weippe, Image 891 (Weippe Area_1914_25). This is the only image they had of Clearwater, that's why I used it. I don't know anything about a Pioneer Mountain image. Thank you Sister Heaston

Announcing R&B Cabo San Lucas!
Mas Cerveza, Mas Rock!
Announced across major news media: KISS front men and Rock & Brews owners Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons announced plans to open a second Los Cabos location of their popular restaurant and entertainment concept, Rock & Brews! To purchase your grand opening tickets, contact Martha Muños at firstname.lastname@example.com or at 6243556070
The grand opening of Rock & Brews Los Cabos will welcome about 400 KISS fans from around the world, along with music industry notables and local VIPs.
For information about or to book the KISS Army package at the Sheraton Hacienda del Mar Golf and Spa Resort, visit www.sheratonloscabos.com, or call (011) 52-624-145-8000. The rate code is KISARRB.
They are joining airlines, hotel companies, local residents and others in the widespread Los Cabos Unstoppable effort to foster a speedy recovery of Los Cabos following Hurricane Odile. The new restaurant will be located in Cabo San Lucas on the waterfront in the Marina. The first Rock & Brews in Los Cabos opened in 2013 in San Jose del Cabo.
Oye Como Rock!
"Our restaurant in San Jose del Cabo was severely damaged by the hurricane, and we are excited to join the persevering people of Los Cabos in their Los Cabos Unstoppable efforts to rebuild and recover following the hurricane," said Paul Stanley. "Los Cabos is a spectacular destination and we look forward to welcoming local residents and visitors to both of our restaurants there for many years to come."

The new Rock & Brews Cabo San Lucas features a unique rock-inspired atmosphere, complete with hand-painted murals of rock artists, album and tour art as well as the brand's signature "Great Wall of Rock." Guests can take advantage of indoor or al fresco dining overlooking the marina. The restaurant features quality American comfort food as well as local favorites, a full bar and one of the largest selections of international craft beers in Los Cabos. It is set to be a main late-night attraction for locals and tourists alike, as after the dinner rush, a DJ will be spinning tunes nightly.

Whether buying or renting, the Internet is a great way to find a new house. Not only can mortgage providers be researched and found but Portals such as http://www.realtor.com, http://www.rightmove.co.uk and http://www.realestate.com.au provide a one-stop place to find available properties.
Real Estate and the Internet
The property/Real Estate Portals have certainly taken over from individual Real Estate agent Websites. Before Portals, people would need to access many Websites (i.e. many independent Real Estate websites) to view a range of properties. Portals then came along and provided a single Website where visitors are able to see all properties advertised on that Portal. Portals are mostly good for property seekers however are an additional advertising expense for Real Estate agents; they now need their own Website and need to advertise on multiple Portals to get maximum exposure (as stated before, the Portals also only show visitors advertised/paid properties).
Use Google For Real Estate Search
The traditional Real Estate Portal is, however, not the end of the story. The power is shifting back to the Real Estate Websites in the form of Google. Google has a truly fantastic Search function which may be found at Google Maps. Put in any location and enter the Real Estate options and Google provides a map, descriptions and links to properties for sale or rent according to the Search criteria. Google is effectively now a Real Estate Portal which displays information from the entire Web (as opposed to other Real Estate Portals which only show those properties which constitute paid advertisements). So, no matter if a private individual, Portal or Estate Agent Website is advertising the sale or rental property Online, Google will show it.
Again Google shows its leadership in Web technology, functionality and usability.
P.S. It's a bit tricky to find the Real Estate search on Google Maps so follow this link: Google Real Estate Search
Note: Google have now retired this absolutely awesome Real Estate Search. Aaahhhhh!!!!
