PETE Students at GIH in Sweden
Jane Meckbach & Ingemar Wedman
Diagnostic information on new students at university level is not a regular part of planning for new students, even though there is ample information that is under-utlized for planning courses and developing a challenging study situation for the students. In Sweden, PE teacher training is carried out at 16 universities/colleges, which means that about 60% of all teacher training institutes have also PE teachers education.
Aside from more or less regular diagnostic information, and information concerning previous experiencees of new students, there is, at least in Sweden, also a discussion concerning the excellence of the students in itself. The aim of this study is among other things to describe the PE teacher students at the The Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH; their background, their experiences from PE & Health in school, and what kind of competencies they have in PE and physical activity. Beyond that, we would like to develop a national platform for diagnostic information covering all PE students in Sweden. In this study we present the first step in such a national platform.
As a first step we have used the information at hand at GIH and added information from a questionnaire consisting of 44 items, administered to 45 students (25 women and 20 men). Some of the items in the questionnaire were of open-ended character. The results were analysed using SPSS.
In our pilot study of 45 student described above, 50% had grown up in large city, the average age is 24 years, and the entrance score were very high (from 16,2 points to 19,6 point on a 20 point scale). All students had positive experiences from their previous studies and consider themselves as high performance students. More than three quarters of the students had parents who were well educated compared to Swedish standards. Many students, 65%, had spent time in other countries and not only as tourists. Most of the students had chosen studies at GIH as a first hand choice. When accepted to GIH, almost 50% had carried out university studies. Fifteen percent of the students have parents born in another country. Most students read a daily newspaper, 35% live by themselves in their own apartment and some of them live some distance from GIH (up to 150 kilometres). Many students at GIH have long experience as leaders in various situations, and in many cases within the sporting field. Most students perform well in many activities, e.g. know how save people in water, and understands the connection between health and physical activity. They knows less well about sports for disabled people and how to prepare skis for cross country skiing.
DiscussionIt seems quite clear from this pilot study that the PE students at GIH are well prepared for their future studies. At the same time the information gathered might be used in an effective way to enhance their studies and adjust the information in a better way than before. The question remains as to how typical our students are in relation to PE students at other universities and colleges in Sweden. We hope in the near future to be able to answer that question and thereby to contribute to the discussion about the future of PE studies in Sweden.

Catalogue text
Sequence Eighteen, 1973 – 75 shows Roger Kemp painting at full concentration. It is the result of an innovative method of contemporary abstraction he developed after two intense years spent overseas. Besides mixing with cultural identities and soaking up art in museums, Kemp was invited by the major British painter Bridget Riley to use a vacant section of her large studio-warehouse. This had enabled Kemp to attempt work on the grand scale of American and European abstractionists. So, upon returning to Melbourne, he rented a similar warehouse off Flinders Street, where he had the space, solitude and vision to paint in an international vein.
Sequence Eighteen is a bold, gutsy composition produced in that studio. Roger Kemp unfurled and fixed a wide roll of French art paper along his studio wall, then painted upon it a compositional structure of circles and bars using thinned acrylic. There was a serious point to his abstract geometry. The artist wished to suggest the perceptions of physicists and scientists who talk of implicit rational systems behind the seemingly haphazard world. Indeed, Kemp's big theme in Sequence Eighteen is the grand pattern evident behind the restless turmoil of an ever-changing universe.
Mind you, Sequence Eighteen is a long way from a physics diagram. The artist has not plotted out scientific ideas with compasses, rulers or numbered ratios. Instead, cosmic order is implied in a semi-visionary composition that owes much to that tradition followed by European masters like Wassily Kandinsky and František Kupka, as well as Kemp's New York contemporaries, the celebrated Abstract Expressionists.
Having defined his design basis the artist then set to work on Sequence Eighteen with full bodied American acrylics, sometimes interchanging broad brushes with imported paint rollers. Kemp used these sponge rollers – which were unknown in Australia – as a way to avoid resorting to 'fill'. They allowed him to apply acrylic as an irreducible rectangle. Forms were not coloured in, he would say, they denoted elementary units as in physics.
We can see Sequence Eighteen also involved a creative process of distribution and then layering. In early stages of the painting, Kemp distributed small coloured blocks and devices, balancing them across the overall composition. They were intended to sit beneath a final surface configuration. This is why, behind those strong white bands and arcs, we can make out a subtle secondary order of shapes in tan, reds, blues and purple structured in a different alignment. When explaining what was intended by doing this, Kemp would switch from scientific talk and refer to how in symphonic music strings or woodwind have assigned passages, their own melodic units, but these all ultimately merge in a dominant musical structure. And, much as a composer must weave the separate parts played by different instruments into a cohesive symphony, so too was Kemp striving to orchestrate subsidiary forms into a grand unity. Sequence Eighteen is a mighty work of art. Exhibited at the National Gallery of Victoria soon after completion, it signals this pioneering creator moving to the forefront of modern Australian painting.

COD:GW Update & Summer GamesYour in-game name: [IX]Volume[vVv] Picture of in-game statistics:
Some new changesSounds great. Playerbase also has gradually decreased. You people should start thinking about it too.
What do you want next?1. Converting a light roleplay server into a heavy one instantly will definitely decrease the playerbase. Not everyone is better on roleplaying each and every situation. As craze said, there are other better heavy roleplay servers, so why mudoo? The current heavy roleplay server already have a good playerbase and players there are dedicated and they also know what actually they're doing. SAMP servers are dying (exceptions for those Russian servers). Changing mudoo into heavy roleplay server will definitely make a drastic decrements to the playerbase since most of the players here isn't good with roleplaying. Because of the reason that SAMP is dying, playerbase also matters. The current condition of Mudoo seems to be fair where the exceptions can be made only for SWATs and the criminals. Both of the rivals keep hunting them, insulting and saying shits on public chat if one of them looses a fight or any valuable items. If SWATs are properly maintained i.e iif they do better roleplay which includes a strategic plan, strategic shooting rather than having no fear with guns, terrorists or mafia then, if criminals doesn't do the same in return, harsh punishments should be given to those. 2. There are some LEOs above claiming criminals just do /s stop or we shoot. The same thing is done by police officers obviously. Criminals are supposed to be more harsh (but ofc with a proper roleplay) with the condition they're facing. Criminals must perform criminal antics whereas the LEOs are supposed to stop the criminals with a patience and in legal way where as the criminals can even do it in illegal ways like shooting the tires of the enemy vehicle, shooting people who are inside a car or so. "/s stop or die " isn't the actual problem, its what criminals should do. The thing that actually lacks is the proper roleplay and players who're actually in target who don't feel like dying or bowing down. I see how a retarded cunt above mentioned the only group, Gambino who does /s stop or we shoot. PD and mafia/terrorist are rivals in game but a retarded fucker just started hating them while OOC. 3. Removal of blips can be an another effective way of increasing roleplay opportunities. Reasons are listed above by other players too. 4. Economy in mudoo isn't yet cared about. Players here earn millions in a day (IRL time). Millionaires should be rarely found but almost 70% players of mudoo are millionaires. Nerfing various money making method could be another effective way to control economy in mudoo.

Harold Gambino, Daryl Reznov and Rodrigo Corleone What happened? (quote what rule was broken) I just joined in-game, some csc,andolini and cm started following me. I ran off to angel pine. I called some LET for backup and daryl got one of andolini down in our HQ. Everyone else ran off from there. I went HQ and saw that Harold Gambino was having some admin situation. I had picked daryl from the roof and he was with me. I was talking with rodrigo and was asking what actually happened. Daryl took a car and got out from our HQ's gate but was just next to the fence of our HQ and was observing the admin sit. I was inside(gam hq) near the fence (admin sit) and he was just next to it but outside. Joey logged in, came to our HQ. He literally saw me and daryl on hq but ofc he should have noticed that I was with admin. A min later, I saw many people in radar and I heard gun shots and they were shooting daryl's car. I jumped over the fence and said them to stop because I was talking with admin still they killed me. I even hadn't pulled out gun. I reported joey only since there were many people involved.

Summer Showers
Maura McEvoy
With outdoor showers this refreshing, you'll want to linger long after the rinse cycle.
/Coastal Corner
Deborah Whitlaw
Make the most of a small space with a corner shower. The curved curtain rod shown here is a running rail salvaged from the bow of a boat. Water drains through the pressure-treated pine floorboards, which have been painted with high-gloss deck enamel to prevent damage.
Stand Out
Deborah Whitlaw
For this freestanding shower, the architect used vertical red cedar tongue-and-groove paneling to line the interior walls and brick-framed granite cobblestones on the floor.
Hanging Garden
Bruce Buck
If you just want a small open-air shower, mount a showerhead on an exterior wall. Provide privacy with an arbor. When placing a shower on an exterior wall, be certain the structure is sealed against moisture.
In the Details
Tria Giovan
Create an inviting atmosphere in your outdoor shower with fresh flowers and convenient storage. This well-equipped retreat holds a bench, mirror, towels-even a crab trap for rinsing beach finds.
Roughin' It
Maura McEvoy
Old cisterns and water tanks inspired the shape of this corrugated metal stall. Most of these durable components can be purchased at a local hardware or building-supply store.
Out in the Open
Maura McEvoy
Keep sand on the beach with a simple outdoor shower in a can't-miss location. Water drains through generous spaces between pressure-treated lumber, while a knee-high spigot makes foot- and dog-washing easy.
Bathing Beauty
Whitlaw Llewellyn
An outdoor shower can easily look like a natural extension of your home. Try incorporating some detailed woodwork to enhance the look. Install hooks within easy reach for wet bathing suits, bathrobes, and towels.
Stay Simple
Maura McEvoy
A terry cloth curtain on a circular rod creates privacy around this porch shower. Decking slanted away from the house and a drain in the floor whisks water away.
Bold is Beautiful
Maura McEvoy
Move over, modesty-these cabana-stripe showers aren't meant to blend in. An outdoor shower may tax your hot-water system, so consider updating it when you install one (or two).

Hi, I'm Cait
Real Estate is not just a hobby or a job, it's in my blood. My roots are deep. Madison has always been and will always be my home. I was born and raised here and am following in the footsteps of three generations of Madison Realtors ahead of me. Many of Madison's most desirable neighborhoods were brought to life by my family including: Shorewood Hills, Sunset Village, Westmorland, Orchard Ridge and more that I learn about all the time. I have been a full-time Realtor in Madison since 2012 and have sold 100+ homes in that time.
In 2013 my husband and I purchased our first home in Maple Bluff. It was quite the fixer-upper and we've been having a blast transforming it. Since then we've been filling the house up with our daughter, Olivia and our rescue dogs and cat. We love to take walks in our neighborhood, spend time at the pool and golf in the summers and walk over to Lake Mendota to watch the sunset.
For the past several years, I have been heavilly involved with Fetch Wisconsin Rescue in many capacities. From serving on The Board of Directors, to planning fundraising events, to running the website. My favorite part of being involved with the rescue has been fostering adult dogs and puppies and helping them find their forever homes. To date I have fostered over 40 dogs for Fetch and I am extremely passionate about sperading the message about adopting a dog or a pet in need.
I provide the most comprehensive and competitive services around, I am transparent with my approach and If I think of a service that no one is doing yet, I push the envelope and kickstart it. Setting the bar higher is what I do. I don't operate with generic templates and tired strategies. I have the flexibility, the vision and the tenacity to create a highly personalized experience for each and every client I am so fortunate to work with. Sellers enjoy my aggressive marketing approach that includes professional photos, HD virtual tours, floor plans, a custom branding package with website, personalized for sale signs, analytic reports, a paperless process and digital signatures. Buyers appreciate that I go the extra mile for them by offering my fine tuned neighborhood knowledge, finding properties before they go on the market and providing a simple paperless process.
Not all REALTORS® are created equal. In the State of Wisconsin it takes very little time and money to get a real estate license. Real estate is an attractive business to get into which leads to a lot of options so it is imperative that you do your due diligence when selecting an agent. I don't dabble in real estate. It's not a hobby. I work (practically) round the clock and am deep in the Madison market working with buyers and sellers every single day. There are many agents who practice part time or simply lack the edge that it takes to produce successful results for their clients. Did you know that on average 10% of agents do 90% of the business in most markets?
You can say I've been around the block in Madison. Perhaps around every block. I've lived in Madison my whole life and it will always be my home. I've got the Madison scene covered. My business is partnered with Realty Executives, a 50 year old International Real Estate Company. You can say they've got the national and international scene covered. What does that mean to you? Well, having a local, national and international presence in the real estate market means the most resources and exposure to buyers and sellers.
A surprising amount of REALTORS® don't market their negotiation abilities in their bios or when pitching themselves to prospective clients. I'm pretty confident that a REALTOR® that can negotiate is at the top of your list, if not the number one thing you are looking for. I can go on and on about about the services that I provide and all the reasons why you will enjoy working with me, but if I can't negotiate then what good am I? I can and will negotiate the best possible price and terms for you because it's what I love about what I do. There's truly a thrill in nailing a great deal for my clients.

The Basket Method
Tennis teaching professionals and coaches have always used the traditional metal ball basket when feeding balls to their students. Its design and method of use has been unchanged for over 4 decades. The traditional basket comes in many sizes and styles and can hold from 30 to 80 balls. Most of the baskets on the market rest on stationary legs that fold up when not in use. Many baskets are not very sturdy. Legs must be locked in to prevent the basket from wobbling. Often the teaching pro hits the basket while stroking, or the student may hit the basket while returning a feed. This causes the basket to fall, spilling the balls. This constant distraction breaks up the rhythm of the lesson. Traditional baskets are often to cumbersome to carry, weighing as much as 35 pounds. The excessive weight and bulkiness can often cause injuries to shoulders and arms when lugging or lifting.
Using the traditional basket, the feeder grabs 2 to 3 balls and starts feeding. The basket remains fixed to the same spot until the teaching pro moves it to another court position. This inflexibility limits the teaching pro's ability to feed balls from various court positions without first returning to the basket for more balls or to reposition the basket. This action distracts the teaching pro and student, leads to loss of feed rhythm and takes away valuable time from the lesson.
Most people can hold only 2-3 balls at a time. With balls in their opposite hand the teaching pro often finds it difficult to cradle the frame, making it uncomfortable when hitting full backhands. This often results in having to slice the backhand, thus limiting the students ability to hit various returns.

LePage threatens to remove Maine sheriffs, asks ICE to investigate state's immigrant groups
In a radio interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham on Monday, Governor LePage revealed he plans to issue an executive order to remove two sheriffs from their duties who, he claims, say they won't work with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Ingraham asked LePage for the latest on refugee resettlement in Maine. He said refugees were still coming in for a while when he first announced Maine was not going to participate in refugee resettlement during the Obama Administration, but "they're not now."
"We've asked ICE to investigate a few organizations in the state of Maine," LePage said. "Just last Friday -- I'm issuing an executive order right now because we have a couple sheriffs that say they're not going to work with ICE."
"Unbeknownst to them, the Maine constitution says if they don't follow state law, then I can remove them."
LePage added there was a "likelihood you're going to be hearing some stories about some sheriffs being removed from their duties."
Ingraham asked if there were two sheriffs in question, LePage said there was one in particular and one that hadn't come out and said he wasn't going to participate. "But he's sending signs he's going to ignore them. If they do, it's going to be to their dismay."
According to state law, the Governor has the power to remove a sheriff after receiving a complaint about said sheriff from the county commissioners. It is not clear whether or not Governor LePage has, in fact, received a complaint from the Cumberland County Commissioners about Sheriff Kevin Joyce.
Joyce announced in a press conference that his department would no longer hold some inmates for immigration agents. Because of this announcement, it is assumed that Governor LePage is talking about Sheriff Joyce when he says there is "one [sheriff] in particular" who he is considering removing from duty.
NEWS CENTER has reached out to the Cumberland County Commissioners and asked if they have filed a complaint with the governor's office about Sheriff Joyce. Commissioner Steve Gordon called our email, "a complete surprise."
"There must be some misinterpretation of the Governor's remarks, which I have neither heard nor read; as to my knowledge, no Cumberland County Commissioner has even entertained such a thought," he wrote.
Commissioner James Cloutier called LePage's threat "hot air," and said no commissioner has proposed a complaint, and none would pass.
"I know of no complaint," he said. "As far as I know, the Sheriff is completely correct about his stance related to the ICE detention request practice. The county has an agreement with ICE that we will detain lawfully arrested or detained persons, however, the detention of persons who are not the subject of a legal order of restraint has been ruled inappropriate and illegal in several recent court cases. The Sheriff is obeying the law."
The LePage Administration told NEWS CENTER no removal proceedings have been initiated yet.
"However, the safety and security of the children, families, and citizens of the State of Maine is the Governor's first responsibility. As a state established under the authority of the Constitution of the United States of America and of the State of Maine, the State must do its duty and work cooperatively at the federal, state and local level to enforce the laws that maintain our nation's sovereignty and keep us safe," Press Secretary Julie D. Rabinowitz wrote in an email.
Rabinowitz then pointed out sheriffs are required by state law to obey all orders relating to law enforcement which they receive from the Governor (30-A M.R.S.A. §401(4).)
She also referred to the provisions of Executive Order 001-2011 LePage signed in January of 2011.
"All Maine residents having lawful status are entitled to fair treatment by state officials and access to state services … certain prior Executive Orders may have created the impression that Maine was a so-called 'sanctuary state' for those who are in the United States without lawful status … it is the intent of this Administration to promote rather than hinder the enforcement of federal immigration law … I, Paul R. LePage, Governor of the State of Maine, under the power vested in me, hereby order as follows: 1. Executive Order 13 FY 04/05, dated April 9, 2004, and Executive Order 34 FY 04/05, dated February 28, 2005, are hereby rescinded, effective immediately. 2. Employees and officials of the State of Maine shall cooperate with employees and officials of the federal government on all matters pertinent to immigration, subject only to any limitations imposed by statutory law or by the Constitutions of Maine or the United States."
Rabinowitz wrote, "The Governor has the ability to exercise the authority granted to him by Article IX Section 10 of the Maine State Constitution:"
"Removal of sheriffs from office and replacement. Whenever the Governor upon complaint, due notice and hearing shall find that a sheriff is not faithfully or efficiently performing any duty imposed upon the sheriff by law, the Governor may remove such sheriff from office and appoint another sheriff to serve for the remainder of the term for which such removed sheriff was elected. All vacancies in the office of sheriff, other than those caused by removal in the manner aforesaid shall be filled in the same manner as is provided in the case of judges and registers of probate."
Sheriff Joyce is also getting support from within the law enforcement community. On Monday, York County Sheriff Bill King posted to Facebook, "I stand with Sheriff Kevin Joyce and will not honor a 'request' from the federal government to hold an immigrant without proper documentation. I make no apology for protecting the taxpayers of York County from needless litigation."
The governor said Maine has had a couple of terrorists and, "I'm not going to stand by and watch them settle in Maine, and do their harm from here in Maine."
Aside from the two terrorists of 9/11 who flew from Canada to Maine, he provided Adnan Fazeli as an example.
LePage said there are others with suspicions that have been picked up by ICE and are being looked at right now.
"We've had our problems," he said. "We're a border state and unfortunately, some do come in from Canada and that's been a problem. Some come by boat. We have 3,600 miles of coastline. It is a problem."

An award ceremony honoring six American Indians who were instrumental in the development of the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service's new national Office of Tribal Relations was held Sept. 22 at the agency's headquarters.
The award recipients include Butch Blazer, Nolan Colegrove, Keller George, Carol Jorgensen, Susan Masten and Robert "Bob" Tippiconnie. Each guest received a blanket decorated with various Indian designs.
"These American Indian leaders were instrumental in building our tribal relations program to better serve Indian Tribes and communities," said Forest Service Chief Dale Bosworth. "My vision is to work with Indian Tribes to meet tribal forestry needs and to make the benefits of all Forest Service programs available to the Indian Tribes."
The Forest Service has worked over the last several years to articulate consistent policies in its government-to-government relationship with American Indians, including policies on consultation, traditional uses of forest products, confidentiality for traditional knowledge and reburial.
Bosworth also received an award from Mark Rey, agriculture under secretary for Natural Resources and Environment, recognizing the chief's long history of leadership in building strong government-to-government relationships between the Forest Service and Indian Tribes.
The award ceremony was held during an open house marked by warm- spirited fellowship to celebrate and highlight the partnerships among American Indian Tribes, Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiians and the Forest Service. Guests included members of federally recognized Indian Tribes, presidents of Indian Tribal Colleges, state foresters, representatives from state Indian commissions and other Indian organizations, White House and U.S. Congressional representatives and other federal agency employees.
The multi-event forum also included the opening of the agency's new Hall of Tribes, a permanent gallery of interpretive displays and artifacts that commemorate the many tribal and Forest Service partnerships. Two presentations on partnership programs were also held, highlighting archaeological research and cooperative fisheries assessments in Alaska.
"The award ceremony, the Hall of Tribes, and the establishment of the new Office of Tribal Relations are very significant," said Dale Kanen, the agency's first director of the Office of Tribal Relations. "We look forward to building on the legacy created by those who helped us develop this new office by strengthening our partnerships with American Indians, Native Alaskans and Native Hawaiians."
Creation of the office is linked to a vision statement developed in 2002 by the National Tribal Relations Program Implementation Team commissioned to implement task force recommendations concerning relationships between the agency and native partners. It envisioned a future where the Forest Service and Indian Tribes work collaboratively through government-to-government relationships--a future where the Forest Service possesses the organizational structure, skills and policies to redeem our responsibilities in this partnership.
Two recent legislative actions provide new ways for the Forest Service and tribes to work together on tribal forestry. The Healthy Forest Restoration Act establishes the Tribal Watershed Forestry Assistance Program that provides for the Forest Service to work directly with tribes on Watershed Forestry Assistance projects. The Tribal Forestry Protection Act encourages the use of stewardship contracting to address fire, disease and other threats to Indian forest land or tribal communities.
The open house and award ceremony were part of the remarkable week-long First Americans Festival of ceremonies and native music, dance and storytelling events held in conjunction with the Sept. 21 opening of the Smithsonian's new National Museum of the American Indian.
Electronic photos of the award ceremony and Hall of Tribes are available.
Award Recipient Profiles
Six American Indians were recognized during a Forest Service awards ceremony held Sept. 22 at the agency's headquarters for their leadership, guidance, energy and support in helping the Forest Service design and establish its new national Office of Tribal Relations. Forest Service Chief Dale Bosworth also received an award from USDA for his long history of leadership in building strong government-to-government relationships between the Forest Service and tribes.
Butch Blazer has made wise natural resource management his goal for the past 25 years. A tribal council member of the Mescalero Apache and a co-founder of the Native American Fish and Wildlife Society, he presently serves the State of New Mexico and his people as the first-ever American Indian State Forester. His solid advice and collaborative help with the Forest Service has created successful tribal and agency partnerships in caring for the land.
Nolan Colegrove has also made natural resource stewardship his life's work. He currently serves as the Hoopla Valley Tribe's Forest Manager, the President of the California Indian Forest and Fire Management Council, and since 2001, as President of the Intertribal Timber Council (ITC). The ITC has consistently provided advice and guidance to the agency regarding natural resource issues that affect tribes and the need to redesign the agency's Tribal Relations Program. His support and leadership, particularly in the last several years, was noted for its valuable role in natural resource leadership. Gary Morishma, an ITC representative, accepted the award for Nolan in his absence.
Keller George was recognized for his service to the Forest Service as the agency strived to determine how to work with tribes and to develop an internal organization and policies to support that work. He has served his people of the Oneida Nation for many years on many committees. He is also serving his fifth term as President of the United South and Eastern Tribes. His Indian name, which translates as "tree planter," perhaps foretold of his nurturing effect on young tribal organization within the Forest Service.
Carol Jorgensen, currently the director of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's American Indian Environmental Office in Washington, D.C., is a former Forest Service employee. Carol served as a line officer in Alaska and other regions and as manager of the Forest Service National Tribal Relations Program, where she provided invaluable leadership and support to the task forces and teams that led to the first-ever Office of Tribal Relations. Her new role at EPA is leading to closer working relationships and more consistent federal policy on tribal environmental issues between the Forest Service and EPA and provides a strong example for other land management agencies as well. She is a member of the Tlingit Tribe from the Killer Whale clan.
Susan Masten, a leader of the Yurok Tribe, was Yurok Tribe Chairperson in 2002 and 2003. The Yurok Tribe is the largest federally-recognized tribe in California. She has testified often before Congress on a wide range of issues, including water quality and healthy salmon populations in the Klamath River and for better infrastructure development--telephone, power, roads--on the Yurok reservation. As President of the National Congress of American Indians, she supported and advised the Tribal Relations Program Task Force, and the consultation Policy Task Group, providing invaluable strategic insights and counsel. She also graciously opened a dialogue between the Forest Service and the many members of the National Congress on American Indians.
Robert "Bob" Tippiconnie, retired from the Forest Service, now works with his people's young men's warrior society, the Commanche Little Ponies. He was recognized for his work as the "lead pony" for the agency's tribal relations program through his outstanding service and many years as the first tribal relations manager for the Forest Service. He single-handedly led the development of the agency's American Indian policy in the late 1980s to formally recognize the Forest Service's government-to-government relationship and responsibility to tribes. He also provided internal cultural training and awareness of Native American rights and interests. Over time, he helped establish regional and forest level tribal liaison positions in the Forest Service. He also mentored and encouraged many of the Forest Service's current leaders. In a moment of profound honor and homage for all ceremony participants, the award symbolized his circle of service.
Forest Service Chief Dale Bosworth is recognized in Indian country for dealing opening and honestly with American Indians, Mark Rey noted in his USDA award presentation. Bosworth's impressive record in building strong relationships dates back to his tenure as a deputy regional forester. The chief's award recognizes his role in working with line officers to emphasize agency responsibility to tribes, in modeling appropriate behavior in his relationships with tribes, and for working collaboratively with tribes as good neighbors. Bosworth was also recognized for issuing clearer, consistent policy; enlarging the national tribal relations staff, proposing new legislation to clarify some of the agency's responsibilities to the tribes and for increasing the contracting volume with tribally-owned businesses.

There. I said it. I'm a Martha.
I won't even try to hide it, you guys. It is what it is. Honestly, there's no shame. I believe that God gave me a Martha side for a reason. But life is about balance.
Jesus balanced out His life by filling up through prayer and relationship with his Father after pouring out to others.
If Jesus needed to fill back up, how on earth can we be expected to not do the same?!
I certainly can't be all Martha, Martha, Martha! every minute of everyday, remaining sane and balanced in my relationship with Christ, without channeling some of her sister's natural traits. Trust me, I've tried.
P.S. It doesn't work well.
Embarrassingly, too often I reach my breaking point before I realize that my inner M&M sisters have been way out of whack in the balance department.
I knooooooow… it's not always easy. Life is cray, I get it. You're talking to THE ring leader of the circus-life-crazy-train.
But oh my goodness, how we desperately need our quiet time with Jesus.
Maybe the mere phrase "quiet time" sends shivers down your spine. It's okay.
Maybe it signals negative connotation and throws your anxiety into full breakout mode, because you just can't even think about having quiet time with Jesus unless it's perfect in every way. It's really okay.
Don't panic. God sees your heart, honey!
The other good news is that we are seriously not alone, and, we can do this together! I love that we have the privilege to come together and learn from one another as we walk in our relationships with Christ!
My beautiful friend, mentor, and "boss babe" Joanna Weaver is offering a free (yeah girl) live webinar on this very subject, and I think we all need to be there! It's like a big party where we all get to watch this sweet woman (who is so stinking real) teach us how to cultivate more of that Mary side of our hearts…. all while sitting in our stretchy pants… I'm in!
I'm guest posting on Joanna's blog today, and sharing about a super fun challenge on Instagram that will bring all of us Mary's and Martha's in sync to journey alongside one another.
Check it out here and join the Instagram challenge, and then check out the upcoming webinar, The Mary-Hearted Woman. I can't wait to see you there! (I'll be the one in black sweats sipping a Coke)

The BBC has pulled three-part drama Ordeal By Innocence from its schedules following two sexual assault allegations lodged against star Ed Westwick.
Although the corporation had yet to confirm an air date, previous Agatha Christie adaptations have aired on Boxing Day.
Two actors have come forward with allegations against Westwick, who is best known for playing Chuck Bass on CW drama Gossip Girl.
In a Facebook post published on Tuesday (November 7), US actor Kristina Cohen claimed that she had been sexually assaulted by Westwick three years ago in Los Angeles.
On Wednesday (November 8), actor Aurelie Wynn posted a separate Facebook post alleging that Westwick had raped her at his home.
The BBC said in a statement that "these are serious allegations which Ed Westwick has strenuously denied."
The corporation said it is "not making any judgement" against the actor, who also stars in BBC2 comedy White Gold, but "until these matters are resolved, we will not include Ordeal By Innocence in the schedules."
The BBC added that Westwick has "paused" from filming the second series of Fudge Park's BBC2 comedy White Gold "while he deals with these allegations."
Responding to Cohen's allegations on Tuesday, Westwick posted a statement on Twitter saying he "does not know this woman."
"I have never forced myself in any manner, on any woman. I certainly have never committed rape," he wrote.
Following the second rape claim, which he also denied, he said it was "disheartening and sad that as a result of two unverified and provably untrue social media claim, there are some in this environment who could ever conclude I have had anything to do with such vile and horrific conduct."
The star-studded Ordeal By Innocence is part of an extensive production deal between BBC1 and Agatha Christie Limited around seven Christie adaptations.
Previous productions include three-part And Then There Were None and two-parter The Witness For The Prosecution.
This story first appeared on Screen's sister publication Broadcast.

McCarron showed maturity in win
COLLEGE STATION — The emerging trust between Alabama coach Nick Saban and his quarterback, AJ McCarron, hasn't always been absolute.
There have been growing pains and a few rocky moments over the years. Even after leading the Crimson Tide to two national championships, McCarron's observations haven't always been heeded on his sideline.
But Saban and Alabama offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier are listening more to what the senior quarterback has to say. That game-calling acumen helped the No. 1 Crimson Tide escape with a wild 49-42 victory over Texas A&M on Saturday afternoon.
"Coach allowed me to check in and out of plays literally the whole game," McCarron said. "He gave me a run call, and then I had certain checks and a way to get out of it. He kind of left it in my hands to make a play."
That philosophy was especially apparent on the Crimson Tide's game-clinching touchdown late in the fourth quarter.
McCarron knew that tight end Jalston Fowler had been roaming free in the Aggies' secondary for most of the game. McCarron told his coaches that a run/pass option would work on the play if the Aggie defenders bunched the run on a crucial third-and-goal play.
"He wanted to have the ball in his hands on that play at the end of the game," Saban said of McCarron's clinching 5-yard touchdown toss. "It was a well-executed play-action pass."
It capped a strong effort by McCarron, who riddled A&M's secondary for 334 passing yards and four touchdowns — all to different receivers.
McCarron's numbers didn't match Johnny Manziel's. But he left Kyle Field with the satisfaction of victory and a sense of retribution after Alabama's home loss to the Aggies last season.
"AJ played fantastic," Saban said. "He got us in the right plays. He was accurate with all but a couple of throws and showed great leadership."
One of the biggest reasons for McCarron's big game was the protection he received. After being sacked four times by Virginia Tech in the season opener, McCarron wasn't sacked and barely was touched by A&M.
"It was an unbelievable job by our offensive line," McCarron said. "We've got three new starters out there, and the first game wasn't going to be perfect. You have to have time to get your stuff. It was a great job by them adjusting all game long."
Even after falling into an early 14-0 hole against the Aggies, the Tide never doubted their leader. The offense responded with four straight scoring drives, scoring on drives of 75, 80, 80 and 93 yards to take control of the game.
"All game long, AJ kept his composure," center Ryan Kelly said. "He's a great leader, obviously. This is his fifth year, and you wouldn't expect anything else."

In less than two weeks of opening in the Mena region, Avengers Endgame has smashed box office records to earn the accolade of the highest grossing film of all time.
The Marvel Studios film global box office dominance is all but likely as it now closes in on current record holder Avatar. Avatar has maintained the top spot since 2009 as it earned $2.78 million. Avengers: Endgame has earned $2.19 million in under a month beating Titanic. It's worth noting that six of the top ten films all belong to Marvel properties, four of them Avengers films. According to local studio figures, Disney has stated that Endgame earned AED 40.6 million in the UAE box office alone and it also beat the record for the highest gross opening weekend in the Middle East.
The 22 film saga from Marvel that was conceptualized in phases saw Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner and Josh Brolin deliver an end to a journey where the superheroes fight the mad titan Thanos to bring back half of all living beings in the universe that disappeared by the hands of Thanos after he snapped a finger with the Infinity Gauntlet.
Marvel Studios does have one more film to wrap up phase 3, the recently released trailer for Spiderman: Far From Home looks likely to play out as the epilogue for Avengers Endgame.

Parliament this week approved Tshekedi Khama's request for over P41 million emergency-funding for his Ministry to buy three (3) used helicopters to monitor elephants' movement.
But it was not without vigorous debate from opposition MPs, who argued that this is a waste of time and resources as it does not address the escalating human-elephant conflict that the Ministry of Environment, Natural Resources Conservation and Tourism faces.
Presenting the Financial Paper this week, Minister of Finance and Economic Development Kenneth Matambo said it contains supplementary estimates of expenditure from the Consolidated Fund amounting to P25, 114, 910 and estimates from the Development Fund for the sum of P41, 600, 000.
"The ministry request P41, 600, 000 from the Development Fund under the Sustainable Environment Programme, to be used for the procurement of three (3) used helicopters, aviation fuel bowsers (9) tankers and radio communication equipment. As a consequence, the 2017/18-ministry budget needs to be increased by P41, 600, 000 from P135, 075, 175 to P176, 675, 175," said the minister.
Matambo said P25, 114, 910 would be used for increasing manpower with 104 new staff, repair of 150 off-road vehicles, purchase of shade netting equipment among others.
Matambo however noted concerns by the Parliamentary Finance and Estimates Committee regarding supplementary funding requests by ministries. "With respect to the committee's comments that they approved the supplementary Estimates of Expenditure because there was a Presidential Directive, I wish to advise that the committee has the mandate to examine the supplementary budget request and make recommendations as they consider appropriate," he said.
In its report the Finance and Estimates Committee stated that it has observed with concern the perennial and large supplementary estimates submitted by ministries. The committee said some ministries don't heed advice to make requests for emergencies and unforeseen circumstances but instead request or budgetable items.
The committee called for fiscal prudence in all ministries and that where procurement is involved, ministries are advised to follow tendering processes and regulations, even where it involves selective tendering.
The Committee Chairman Ignatius Moswaane told Parliament that procurement has not yet been done for the helicopters. He said they were convinced as the committee by the relevant ministries and Accounting Officers that it would be best to procure the second hand helicopters.
Moswaane, who is also MP for Francistown West said that the ministry of environment has made research before settling for second hand aircraft. "There is no how they could have come before the committee without something to present. Looking at budget constraints they had to settle for used helicopters. They have also promised us that the helicopters would be bought through tendering process.
"I ask the MPs not to have any doubt and support the request because as the committee we have thoroughly done our work", said Moswaane who maintained that they were not pressured to approve the request.
MPs however dismissed the suggestion that helicopters would assist with driving elephants away from areas they are not wanted. They argued that this would be a temporary measure that would not bring any desirable results.
"I am not happy with this request especially for buying second hand helicopters. This would be a costly exercise. Why can't we reduce the number of these elephants so that we are able to manage them? We are keeping them in large numbers for whose benefit?" asked MP for Ghanzi North Noah Salakae.
MP for Chobe Machana Shamukuni also called for the elephants to be sold to help resolve the problem. He said the proposed strategy would only be short-lived.
Pius Mokgware MP for Gabane-Mankgodi stated that buying the helicopters is a waste of time. He dismissed the strategy as not viable. "Next year you will be coming to the same Parliament asking for yet another funding to buy helicopters because these used ones would be of no use to your ministry. At least try culling because your current strategy would be a drawback. Your ministry has been buying off-road motor vehicles, you took others from Central Transport Organisation (CTO) but they are not being used", he said.
In his request Minister Khama said there has been an influx of elephants in the country, which has caused problems. "The world is busy praising us for having a large number of elephants but they are not assisting us with the problems. We would have to at some point ask the world to assist us", the minister stated.
He said they want the supplementary funding to put in place measures to deal with the problem of elephant movements, which have been observed further south of the country in districts hitherto not populated by elephants such as Southern, Ghanzi, Kgatleng, Kweneng and Kgalagadi.

ST. CLOUD, Minn. — Beauty... and a good school lunch... is in the eye of the beholder.
The St. Cloud Public Schools learned that the hard way this week, when a new menu item was outed on social media, and drew so much derision that the district had to eat a big slice of humble pie.
It started on Friday, September 13 when a St. Cloud Apollo student named Maryn Holler posted a picture of her school lunch and an accompanying rant on her Facebook page. The lunch included a few carrots, a cup of marinara sauce and what appears to be a hot dog bun with a bunch of cheese melted on top of it.
"Alright, so I paid for this to eat at lunch today," Hollar wrote. "I thank God everyday that my family has the money where I get to go home and eat actual food. There are kids at this school who this is ALL THEY GET TO EAT and we were given a hot dog bun with cheese."
Hollar's post went bonkers, drawing more than 1,000 reactions, 700 comments and almost 900 shares. "What a joke. That's not a lunch, whoever came up with that is lazy as a cook and should be fired!," wrote Douglas Hawkinson after seeing the post. "My granddaughter came home from Apollo that day to tell me what they had for lunch...I thought she was Kidding !," added Kathy Deeren.
A gent named Kody Klaphake put it succinctly: "St. Cloud Area School District 742, I would be ashamed if I were you as a whole district, to be serving this as a lunch."
It didn't take long for the district to get the message, and issue a Mea Culpa. "Oops! We goofed," read a post on the St. Cloud Schools Facebook page. "Tried a new menu item today at lunch and we hear it was not a winner! Going forward, we will gather input from our students on new menu options. Thanks for the feedback!"
For her part, Maryn Holler sat down with Apollo's principal and was promised a meeting with a district school nutritionist to talk about what is served for school lunch moving forward. "This is the start of something that could forever change my district," she wrote.

text: We went to a grocery store for some basic supplies before getting some dinner. It was a small store though and had limited choices for me. We also went to dinner. I think that I've given up any hope of being at all vegetarian on this trip. It seems pretty much impossible. We (Ben, Andres, and I) went to a restaurant tonight and it had no pix of food and no English text (see photo below). The owners knew no english either. They either don't know my custom sign language for fish, or they didn't actually have any on their menu. So we randomly ordered 3 items off of the menu after the guy didn't want to choose 3 items for us. We got deep fried squid (very yummy), a bunch of raw bacon and a hibachi grill that we could cook it on, and a veggie stir fry dish with bacon with a side of deep fried squid! Hilarious. Andres also ordered a bottle of Sapporo Soft (white liquor of some sort that was actually pretty tasty and very smooth… Weird. The whole experience was weird. The place was about 3 blocks from the guy's dormitory which is about 6 or 7 blocks from campus. Anyhow, very interesting experience. Jet lag still has me under her grips and I am going down early and quickly these days. We'll see how long I last after sharing that bottle of alcohol… Origato! (Thank you!)

More and more veterinarians are recognizing the value of plant-based compounds and offering their patients supplements with these kinds of ingredients. Turmeric is a well-known and common ingredient in many human supplements. It is also becoming more commonplace in pet supplements at dosages specifically tailored to dogs.
Just like humans, as dogs age, their joints become stiffer and they might start to struggle with everyday mobility. Turmeric is a well-known and common ingredient in many human supplements, but is becoming more commonplace in dog supplements, too.
What is turmeric?
Turmeric is a spice that you might be familiar with if you like to cook. You'll typically find it as a yellow-orange powder in this case. It comes from a root in the ginger family and it's often found in Indian dishes.
The active ingredient in turmeric is called curcumin and numerous studies have shown evidence of its benefits. Turmeric's scientific name is Curcuma longa, so you may see that on labels, too.
How does turmeric work?
Dogs' bodies regularly produce free radicals, which are unstable atoms that can cause damage to cells and limit healthy tissue function. When dogs are younger, their bodies are able to fend off these atoms through their natural antioxidant system.
But as they age, their systems slow down and body parts—like joints—are susceptible to tissue damage and stress from free radicals. This is where turmeric comes in, working as a powerful antioxidant to help your dog's body scavenge the free radicals and protect your dog's joints.
How can turmeric help my dog?
The possible benefits of turmeric for dogs include:
• helps maintain healthy cartilage and connective tissue
• helps relieve occasional joint stiffness
• fights free radicals
• helps maintain a normal, healthy inflammatory response
How much turmeric should you give your dog
The easiest way to give your dog turmeric is in a supplement made especially for dogs. In supplement form, it is already correctly dosed based upon your dog's weight and needs. When looking for a supplement, always do your research and buy from a company you know and trust. Look for the National Animal Supplement Council (NASC) quality seal, so you know that the product has been rigorously tested for ingredient quality and manufacturing practices.
What are side effects of turmeric for dogs?
As with anything new that you give your pet, be aware of side effects. Possible side effects of supplements containing turmeric include:
• vomiting
• diarrhea
You can reduce the chance of these side effects by giving your dog the supplement during or after they have eaten.

With Shreveport being a big railroad town in its heyday, it's not surprising to find a lot of traces of old railroad tracks in and around downtown. Here are some pictures depicting such.
The Cross Bayou Bridge: Across Cross Bayou in just north of downtown is a KCS bridge in the form of a Waddell A-truss. There are only two of this type of bridge in the world, the other located in Parkville, Missouri.

It is difficult to gauge how widespread the problem is, but Ubisoft is already looking into resolving the known issues.
Posted By Ashish Isaac | On 09th, Nov. 2017 Under News
Last week, Assassin's Creed Origins had received a sizeable update with 1.03 which added Xbox One X enhancement support, new photo mode features and also fixed some known issues. Then patch 1.04 was released earlier this week on Monday which aimed at offering improvements to performance and stability.
Since the release of these patches however, many users have stated that these have led to a visual downgrade across the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro and the Xbox One. Poor draw distance and removed texture filtering are among the issues cited. "Since the last patch lighting, pop-ins, textures, and draw distances seemed have been tampered with. I had little to no problem with performance before so I don't know why they changed this so much," wrote a Reddit user. Similar issues have been reported across Reddit and even the Assassin's Creed Forum.
The problem doesn't seem to be universal and it's difficult to gauge exactly how many people are experiencing this problem. Ubisoft has already begun trying to figure out the source of the problem. "We received a few reports from players that after the 1.03 update that there were drops in the draw distance. Is this the issue you are experiencing after installing update 1.04? If so did you also experience this after installing update 1.03? As I mentioned this was reported and is currently being investigated," stated one Ubisoft Support Staff Member.
Hopefully, they are able to resolve these issues as soon as possible so that players can go back to having a great experience from the game.

Indian government announces policy to woo investments in semicon fabs
Better late than never, as the saying goes. The Department of Information Technology, Ministry of Communication and IT, Government of India, needs to be congratulated for coming up with the Special Incentive Package Scheme (SIPS)to encourage investments for setting up semicon fabs, and other micro and nanotechnology manufacturing industries in India!
The "ecosystem units" have been clearly defined as units, other than a fab unit, for manufacture of semiconductors, displays including LCDs, OLEDs, PDPs, any other emerging displays; storage devices; solar cells; photovoltaics; other advanced micro and nanotechnology products; and assembly and test of all the above products.
Just a week or two back, I was in conversation with some companies from Israel who were looking to develop business in India. Now, they, and others, have clear guidelines to follow. One of the companies, Nova Measuring Instruments Ltd, should feel happy that the definition of "ecosystem" includes assembly and test of products.
Nova develops, produces, and markets advanced monitoring, measurement and process control systems for the semiconductor manufacturing industry. Another well-known player, Tessolve, has been present in India since 2005 and would surely feel glad with the notification. At least, the media and others will take more notice of the company.
In Hong Kong, an ex-colleague and I used to cover OLEDs. When I first read about this technology back in the early 2000, I used to wonder whether India could have such a capability. Seems, it is now in a position to have OLEDs! I hope Lite Array (OLED) HK is watching and reading all of this.
Plasma display panels is another interesting line. The guidelines should interest LG, Matsushita, Sichuan Changhong Electric Co. Ltd, IRICO Group Corp. Panasonic, Asahi, Mitsui Chemicals, Nippon Electric, Samsung etc. Some of these firms are already present in India in one form or the other. It's just a matter of their being keen on developing PDP in India.
LCDs could be another big investment area. Taiwan's AU Optronics (AUO), Chi Mei Optoelectronics (CMO), Sharp, Samsung, as well as other biggies like LG, NEC, etc., need to be wooed.
It really excites me to see all the possibilities in front of India. If this goes on well, India would be in for a great ride in electronics manufacturing, and in the semicon space.
In the same context, the Bangalore Nano 2007, which will be held in December, could not be better timed. There should be a whole lot of companies looking to be present at this show!
India's now on the threshold of major initiatives in the electronics manufacturing space. Some semicon fabs will also come up, and the number of fabless companies should likely increase. Maybe, TSMC and Tower could oblige with some foundries too. Should all of this happen at the right time, we are in for exciting times.
November 26, 2009 at 12:43 am
Excellent culling of articles — look forward to reading more!

There are no takers for fabs in India.

Cape Town - Coach Allister Coetzee believes that Eben Etzebeth is the perfect fit as captain of the Springboks.
With the injured Warren Whiteley having been ruled out of action for the entire Rugby Championship, Coetzee has turned to Etzebeth to be his leader.
The 25-year-old lock also captained the Boks in the third Test against France back in June, but this tournament will test him on a new level.
But, after his announcing his side in Port Elizabeth on Thursday ahead of Saturday's tournament opener against Argentina, Coetzee said that Etzebeth was performing well in his role as captain.
"Our whole philosophy is about clarity and simplicity," Coetzee explained.
"The captain that we have has a 'no-nonsense' approach. There are no grey areas and that is how we want to make decisions.
"When the decisions are limited the execution will come.
"Eben's personality and mindset suits the DNA of the team very well. He's been good off the field and on the field."
Coetzee also pointed to the senior players in the side and said they all took some of the weight of Etzebeth's shoulders.
"The captain has to make sure that he manages the referee very well and that will be a challenge," said Coetzee.
"But he's got Jaco Kriel, Siya Kolisi, Elton Jantjies and Beast Mtawarira around him so hopefully he will be able to make the right decisions and adjust the game plan if needed."
Kolisi will serve as vice-captain.

Things tend to especially come to a head during the holidays, when family and social obligations eat up just as much of our time as work-related ones. Here's how fellow freelancers manage their time off during the wonderful, but hectic, holiday season.
By: TMFBookNerd, The Motley Fool
The gig economy is the same as the entrepreneurial economy, only in smaller increments of opportunities. Just like with every industrial revolution thus far, whether a boatman in the Andaman Sea, a vendor in a Mexican Village, or a freelance writer in New York City, smart people are figuring out how to leverage technology and get compensated by extracting the friction from every analogue system.
By: John Winsor, Forbes
Freelancers bring much to the table. They tend to be ambitious, agile, abundantly skilled, extensively experienced and highly disciplined self-starters. It's these kinds of traits that make freelancers among the most desirable and employable workers around.

text: SchizophrenicMC 27 Posted April 8, 2010 Hey, Macrossworld members. Been awhile since I was last on. Good to see not much has changed. In any case, Project A-Kon 21 is coming up this June 4th through 6th. Anyone who lives in Dallas, Fort Worth, or any surrounding areas of Texas and southern Oklahoma should attend. It's like $40 for a pass to all three days, and there'll be all sorts of awesome (as always) at the con. I hope to see plenty of Dallasite and Fort Worthers discussing the convention here.

This is the Maserati Levante Trofeo – a new flagship performance SUV and the Italian brand's answer to the Porsche Macan Turbo. Initially intended for the U.S. market, there are currently no plans to bring it the UK.
Revealed at the New York Motor Show, the Levante Trofeo is Maserati's answer to the Porsche Macan Turbo and is claimed to be 'the world's fastest SUV.' It's powered by a 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 that pumps out a not insignificant 590bhp and 730Nm of torque through all four wheels via Maserati's Q4 Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. This sees the SUV crack 0-60mph in 3.9 seconds and hit a top speed of over 186mph.
New turbochargers increase airflow, there are redesigned cylinder heads with specific camshafts and valves, plus new pistons, connecting rods and remapped engine calibration too. Their engineers have also adjusted the crankcase design, crankshaft assembly, oil pump, auxiliary belt and a different wiring layout.
As per the standard model, the Levante Trofeo also has a 50:50 weight balance and low centre of gravity, while retuned front double-wishbone and rear multi-link suspension improves handling. A new 'Corsa' driving mode with launch control adds faster gearshifts, stiffer suspension and increased engine responses.
The styling is conservatively applied over the standard Levante, such as simple tweaks around the lower front end and rear bumper while the bonnet features two new vents to help engine cooling. The Trofeo sports full LED Matrix headlights with the Maserati grille finished in piano black.
The side air intakes have a more aggressive design while a pair of aerodynamic wings helps push the weight of the nose over the shiny, new 22-inch front wheels. The new carbon fibre horizontal element and a body coloured lower extractor that houses the quad exhausts gives the rear-end a wider and more muscular feel.
Hop aboard, and the sculpted sports seats with 'Trofeo' logos stitched into the headrests are now available in a natural premium full-grain leather in black, red or tan. Matte carbon fibre trim and paddle shifters, specific instrument cluster graphics, unique floor mats and a special clock help identify the Levante Trofeo from the standard Levante. And then there's the 1,280-watt, 17-speaker Bowers & Wilkins premium surround sound audio system to get your head bopping.
Production is expected to start at Maserati's refurbished Turin factory later this year.
Check out the video below for a quick overview of the car at the 2018 New York Auto Show by the guys at Roadshow.

"Plants that wake when others sleep. Timid jasmine buds that keep their fragrance to themselves all day, but when the sunlight dies away let the delicious secret out to every breeze that roams about." Thomas Moore
Yes, jasmine buds. lovely, fragile flowers that are often underestimated and taken for granted.
I love how strong they actually are. I love how they couldn't care less about other people's opinions. I love how tame and weak they appear and how they surprise you by being neither.
I love how beautiful they are. Their petals simple, not caring for the protection of sepals. I love their simple white color so uncomplicated yet so refreshing.
I love how humble they are, giving their fragrance when few people can notice but giving anyway.
I love how sweet their fragrance is, mild, warm and soothing.
I love how daring they are, refusing to bloom when other flowers do, refusing to bend to laws and traditions.
I love how persistent they are, blooming when the time comes even when separated from their mother.
I love jasmine. It is , by far, my favorite flower of all time.
