John McCain's Daughter has a blog. She is 23 and out of Columbia. (Perhaps that will draw out one of our bloggers). I note that John McCain's kid is blogging for him. She is not, for instance, not speaking to him or supporting OBAMA. Further, McCain's youngest son called from college, a place they call The Naval Academy.
Now Meghan here is a little OMG! for my taste but she was very nice to Chelsea Clinton and seems to be the pleasant sort. John McCain has 7 children and the all come home.
I do think the anti-illegal alien crowd will be upset that she ate at a Mexican Restraunt election night in both of his Presidential runs.

Sarappo's Pizza has been around for nine years, but it took an economic downturn for the business to rise to the top…
Read the rest of the article here.
Today we asked Ebyline Freelancer Nicole Loughan about her journalistic work covering the hottest food spots in her area. She also recently published her first book, "To Murder a Saint", which made the top 100 bestseller list on Amazon last week. It was #71 overall and the #1 bestselling mystery. Read our interview with her below and congratulate her after!
There are two lines here you did a great job not blurring. One was that the economy made people want a cheaper night out. The other, that restaurants should never apologize for their prices. How did you organize your work to keep out confusion?
With any article that I write I spend a lot of time on the lead. If I get the lead right the rest of the story usually falls easily into place. For the most recent story, "The Recession that Grew a Pizza Place" I was fascinated when the owner told me the business took off during the economic downturn. We hear so much about the recession, but to see what it meant for real business owners was fascinating. His business thrived while many others closed their doors because he specialized in take-out and B.Y.O.B. It was a way for people to eat out without spending a lot of money. He also made it clear that his prices, while lower than most in his area, are not rock bottom. He felt that quality food would win out even in a recession and they did.
What is it that drives people to know the people behind the food they eat?
I am not sure that people are driven to learn more about the people that cook their food, that's why it's important that I find an angle that is interesting. For, example one of my favorite interviews was with a restaurant owner who used to be homeless. He and his wife moved to the U.S. without knowing a word of English and spent several years hungry. He told me that he spent an entire year with only one shoelace because he did not have the money to buy a second one. Today he owns a beautiful restaurant and never lets anybody he meets go hungry. It's stories like that which drive people to want to know more about the people serving their food.
When you go about writing an article that includes quotes from interviews, how much interview material do you have when you begin and how do you narrow that down to the bits to include in an article?
I always get a lot more than I need for an article. I usually start by visiting a restaurant's webpage, then checking them out on social media. I get a feel for what people like at the restaurant or what interesting events they have hosted or have coming up. After I have a good idea of what the restaurant is about then I start making calls. The restaurant owners usually say something that sparks my interest. Once I wrote a story about a cake bakery and learned that they were featured in a national magazine as the creator of the melted snowman cookie. The melted snowman cookie turned out to be the angle of my whole story.
Did you try the food? Which was your favorite dish?
I wish I was able to try the food. The newspaper used to have food critics who would try everything, but it became a very costly endeavor. They decided to try food features, which is where I came in. Features are a good way to talk about new restaurants, menus and chefs from a social standpoint. As far as what I would order and what would be my favorite, it would be anything with cheese. I am a cheese connoisseur. I love stinky cheeses and buttery brie. The way to my heart is definitely through dairy.
Nicole is an award winning journalist. She was awarded first place in feature writing by the Michigan Press Association for her story "Family Keeps the Faith." She also writes two regular features for Calkins Media, "My Bucks County" and "Fresh Offerings." She has a gig as Happenings Media syndicated Columnist, "The Starter Mom."

HORRIBLE PHONE ONE CAN EVER BUY !!!!!! I am using this phone for last 1 year. It's THE WORST phone from the entire lot. Samsung made a blunder in setting up their own OS - Tizen. It's a complete FLOP. There's no playstore, practically there's no Utility App. All the important Apps are out dated. Once you update, it stops working... OLA never works. UBER, AXIS BANK, KOTAK BANK app these are not there in its store... Whatsapp facebook Instagram runs on old version. Camera is good more or less... battery back was good since you have nothing to do with the mobile except calling and messaging so battery stays for 2 days entirely..
But today, it happened that suddenly ph got switched off and not working at all for last 5-6 hrs now... feel like throwing it in the drain... Now have to buy a mobile by tomorrow.... After this ph, im very scared with all the brands available in the market.
Ishan Bhati , 29 Aug 2016Their is no play store in Samsung z3 and not use full app in tizen store like 9app , mobomarket Imo
worst phone ever, it has hanging prob, ba3 doesn't last and its storage is messed up
the worst phone i have ever seen in mah lyf nit does nt wor properly.. hang automatically. sometyms it makes so irritated dat i would trow the phone . my lyf s the worst decision to buy this phone .... i suggest not to buy this phone any more
The worst phone from samsung family....this phone hanged the first day itself i purchased....samsung is cheating their valuable customers....plz make a provision to refund or replace this phone. FRNDS NEVER PURCHASE THIS PHONE....
unknown, 19 Jan 2017Only camera is good
Otherwise this phone is just a waste of money
No video calling supporte... moreUn like the samsung user who feels that only the camera is ok....by my experience it is a shocking camera also! The phone is absolutely not user friendly one cant enlarge the font and yes as suggested by someone else everything goes through another application and one cant download the original.....absolutely GONE!!!!!!is the security of whatsapp coming through facebook as it does...making calls to institutions requiring one to select options by numbers.the screen locks before one is done... Gosh I am SOOOOOOOOOO freaked out about this phone it is utterly shoddy!.

ANDROID 1.6 was a MILLION times better....
104 GBP for a phone that will ONLY take and play video and pix taken on the camera....
Hardware fine...operating system...?
Samsung was a good company, but they lost the plot with this and the S7 battery problem.

Long Jing or Lung Ching is a green tea that comes from the region of Longjing and is named after the growing area. This area is also known as the Dragon Well or Dragon Well and so the tea is often translated as Dragoon Well Tea. According to legend, more than 1,000 years ago a dragon lived in a well near the tea gardens, which caused enough rain. This is how this fine tea was made. Today it is known as one of the best green teas from China, because the taste is uniquely mild. Due to the high content of amino acids, the taste is not bitter. These are whole tea leaves, which are also roasted after drying. These come in a kind of wok pan and the leaves are pressed by hand on the hot pan edge. This is how the flat, elongated leaves are created.

Evolutionary and genetic processes fascinate many organic chemists, and with good reason. They've provided us with the greatest set of chemical catalysts we know of: enzymes, which are a working example of molecular-level nanotechnology, right in front of us. A billion years of random tinkering have accomplished a great deal, but (being human) we look at the results and wonder if we couldn't do things a bit differently, with other aims in mind than "survive or die".
This has been a big field over the years, and it's getting bigger all the time. There are companies out there that will try to evolve enzymes for you (here's one of the most famous examples), and many academic labs have tried their hands at it as well. The two main routes are random mutations and structure-based directed changes – and at this point, I think it's safe to say that any successful directed-enzyme project has to take advantage of both. There can be just too many possible changes to let random mutations do all the work for you (20 to the Xth power gets out of hand pretty quickly, and that's just the natural amino acids), and we're usually not smart enough to step in and purposefully tweak things for the better every time.
Here's a new paper that illustrates why the field is so interesting, and so tricky. The team (a collaboration between the University of Washington and the ETH in Zürich) has been trying to design a better retro-aldolase enzyme, with earlier results reported here. That was already quite an advance (15,000x rate enhancement over background), but that's still nowhere near natural enzymes of this class. So they took that species as a starting point and did more random mutations around the active site, with rounds of screening in between, which is how we mere humans have to exert selection pressure. This gave a new variant with another lysine in the active site, which some aldolases have already. Further mutational rounds (error-prone PCR and DNA shuffling) and screening let to a further variant that was over 4000x faster than the original enzyme.
But when the team obtained X-ray structures of this enzyme in complex with an inhibitor, they got a surprise. The active site, which had already changed around quite a bit with the addition of that extra lysine, was now a completely different place. A new substrate-binding pocket had formed, and the new lysine was now the catalytic residue all by itself. The paper proposes that the mechanistic competition between the possible active-site residues was a key factor, and they theorize that many natural enzymes may have evolved through similar paths. But given this, there are other questions:
The dramatic changes observed during RA95 evolution naturally prompt the question of whether generation of a highly active retro-aldolase required a computational design step. Whereas productive evolutionary trajectories might have been initiated from random libraries, recent experiments with the same scaffold dem- onstrate that chemical instruction conferred by computation greatly increases the probability of identifying catalysts. Although the programmed mechanisms of other computationally designed enzymes have been generally reinforced and refined by directed evolution, the molecular acrobatics observed with RA95 attest to the functional leaps that unanticipated, innovative mutations—here, replacement of Thr83 by lysine—can initiate.
So they're not ready to turn off the software just yet. But you have to wonder – if there were some way to run the random-mutation process more quickly, and reduce the time and effort of the mutation/screening/selection loop, computational design might well end up playing a much smaller role. (See here for more thoughts on this). Enzymes are capable of things that we would never think of ourselves, and we should always give them the chance to surprise us when we can.

Bestinvest's Tales from Tax Year-End08 April 2019
- Three minute scramble - our final ISA investment came in at 11.57pm
- A new ISA account was opened at 11.54pm
Welcome to a new tax year and with it renewed allowances. The ISA allowance remains the same of £20,000 personal limit, however Junior ISAs have increased to £4,368 and the personal tax allowance has increased to £12,500. We now have the next year to fill our boots with the tax free perks that are offered. Yet we know that it is human nature to leave things until the last minute, and Friday's end of tax year 2018/19 proved no different. Lee Dooley, Chief Commercial Officer at Bestinvest, part of the Tilney Group, comments on the tales learnt from the end of the tax year:
"Friday night was no different to any previous years, with many investors investing up until the final stretch. Our telephone lines were open up until midnight to assist with any last minute requests which came in thick and fast. The last ISA account was opened at 11.54pm with the last subscription coming in at 11.57pm, leaving only 180 seconds to sort out their investments!
"ISA investing doesn't have to be left until the final moment. Not only does investing earlier in the tax year remove some of the pressure to make a hasty decision; it also means your hard earned cash is put to work for longer. After all, as the saying goes 'the early bird catches the worm' and in the case of an ISA there is a whole year of potential returns to be had.
"Another option is to take the timing out of the process altogether by investing on a regular basis. Investing regularly takes the emotion out of investing: it is all too easy to have your investment decisions clouded by current sentiment or events that shouldn't really matter if you are investing for the long-term. Investing regularly should also help to reduce market timing risk as you'll end up with 'pound cost averaging', an average entry price that reflects some days when the market is up and others when it was down."

You should immediately go to a doctor after your Florida automobile accident. There may in fact be time limitations imposed by your own insurance company with regard to payment for medical treatment, so you should immediately seek medical treatment. In some instances, even if you are not necessarily feeling pain, you should still go to a doctor and get checked out because problems can arise one, two, three, four days after an accident.

Search engine optimisation (Dubai) is the dynamic practice of improving or increasing the volume and/or the quality of traffic to a website generated from search engines through organic search results.
[Results pages that appear because of their relevance to the search terms, as opposed to being advertisements] Characteristically, the earlier a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine.
The practice of SEO (Lebanon) is to target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, blogs and industry vertical specific search engines which is a vital tool for modern business.
SEO (Dubai) considers how search engines work and what people search for to generate targeted traffic. Optimising a website primarily involves two elements. One is to edit its content and HTML coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords & to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines while the second element involves getting links from other websites so that search engines define a particular webpage as important for a certain subject.
SEO services (Dubai) are often provided as a stand-alone service or as a part of a broader marketing campaign. Because effective SEO (Lebanon) may require changes to the HTML source code of a site, SEO (Dubai) tactics should ideally be incorporated into website re-development and redesign.
The term "search engine friendly" may be used to describe website designs, menus, content management systems and shopping carts that have been optimized to maximize search engine results.
The best organic search engine optimisation (Lebanon) campaigns integrate a number of SEO (Lebanon) strategies to improve the level of traffic and enquiries from a website. Elements of an effective natural SEO campaign are:
- Keyword Research
- Competitive Analysis
- On Page search engine optimisation (Dubai)
- Search Engine Copywriting
- Link Building (Backlinks)
- Website Traffic (Analytics)

Hello our newbie Precious Moment...
Posted by Nicola Elliott
What really is more precious than emeralds? Precious moments of wellbeing. And oh how I love you Precious Moment.
The beautiful colour of the jade green glass filled with the 21 amazing essential oils we've blended for this cosy AND fabulously vibrant NEW blend, truly boosts your wellbeing. And what could be more precious than that? A truly welcomed and loved part of our Christmas fragrance library and I absolutely adored creating this festive fragrance. I started with the seriously-warming deep amber oil of vetivert.
It's the first time we've created something that's so woody and punchy and I have wanted to use this oil for some time, because it's so earthy and cosy yet also is brilliant for energising too. Add a punch of black pepper which is steam distilled from the dried crushed berries and a drizzle of invigorating and vibrant ginger oil gives this fragrance a stripped back yet warming and comforting kind of vibe. Spicy yet fresh notes clear your mind. Finally a splash of the energising citrus oils of orange & bergamot (which are cold pressed from the peel) gives it a little sweet, fresh and fruity vibe.
Great to uplift you (and as a morning pick-me-up) whilst surrounding your home with a beautifully invigorating scent of Christmas. A fab scent to use as a fantastic invigorating pre-party fragrance, for a morning pick-me-up or for that alternative, woody natural and modern Christmas choice with the power to help you kick ass!

Excellent five star service, very nice people to deal with and real experts on BMW CCC and similar electronics, highly recommended.
I left my ccc drive from my e60 535d to these guys as it was rebooting and showing bmw logo.. Like anyone I was worried about sending it away and never seeing it again..
Absolutely brilliant service.. Mihaela Keeps you updated about your device and when he has recieved it and when they diagnose what's wrong with it.. I'm from Northern Ireland my ccc was back within 2 weeks and working like new..
My nav computer in my 2003 330ci would only work with the eject button pressed, - the screen in the car would constantly keep cycling back to the blue screen - as others have said before, I was a bit nervous about sending the unit away particularly out of the country, but other reviews gave me the confidence to send it. Throughout the entire time the unit was away, Mihaela kept me up to date with the progress of the repair, and it was only away for a matter of a week or so! And the repair was very reasonably priced!
Needless to say the unit is now back in the car and functioning as intended, - and I have the confidence of a 12 month warranty!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the services of Mura Car Accessories -
E61 ccc module completely gone. Sent it to MCA and within 4 working days I received it back, fully working and one year warranty! Thanks guys!!!
Hi, I'm located in Lowell MA (USA). I have a BMW 530I and my ccc unit was damaged. I made some researches on the web and find MCA. I noticed that my ccc unit had the same symptoms described by them and that their price and warranty were to much better than here in USA. I contacted those guys and and followed their intructions. I sent them my ccc unit and they kept me updated during the entire process. Today after 6 months, my radio is working like brand new. These guys are very honest and responsible to do business with. I recommend "MCA" 100%.
Great service highly recommended. I was skeptical about the over seas thing but I'm glad I did . I just followed all their instructions and I can't be happier the unit is updated and works great
I have installed all units and everything is functioning ok,
I'd like to thank you for the assistance and also thank your engineer's for doing the repairs on my BMW CCC unit and Mulf TCU.
In Croatia nobody repair CCC for BMW. I sent it to Romania,and in few days it's repaired and returned back!!! Thanks MCA! And special thanks to Mihaela, she is great, 24 hours she was available for any questions!
Prix imbattable pour mon ccc très content du prix et du service personne très professionnels je recommande fortement en 2 semaines réparation et envoi tous compris pour 250€ ces imbattable merci à vous
I was a bit skeptical at first sending iin my unit overseas., but I'm glad i did .they did a fantastic job and Mihaela was great
I had no surprise regarding costs and the delays for repair were really good. My CCC worked as before I recommend this seller truly professional.
Very responsive on E.mail. Kind and very helpful, and my CCC worked like a charm when i got it back. CCC was even faster on startup now.
I would recommend this company to anyone at any times
Couldn't be happier!
Great service, nice people. Thanks alot.
Very good repair, fast customer support. They fixed the restart loop and no sound issue on my ccc bmw e61.
Perfect service! Great staff too!
I was quoted a lot more here in Germany for replacing my broken CCC. I sent my CCC to MCA in Romania and they fixed it for a fraction of the cost. It works perfectly !
I've sent my CCC to them from the UK because here I found nobody that could fix it. Got it back as good as new, great work ! I recommend this company to anyone, no matter where you are ! With the optional expedited repair and expedited return shipping, I got my unit back the next day !
Excellent service and great customer support
Profesionalism, seriozitate, determinare si punctualitate! Asa as caracteriza echipa Mura. Specialist desavarsiti, doresc sa le multumesc frumos pentru promptitudinea si calitatea de exceptie a serviciilor prestate! Recomand cu incredere!
Absolutely excellent service. Fixed and returned my BMW CCC device within a few days. Email support was always fast.
Great service! Fixed my CCC unit for my BMW E61.
Nice and fast email contact, always answer within a day. Email updates about my units status etc.
Very good price, compared to buying a brand new unit and letting a BMW workshop install it for you!
Easy payment via Paypal also.They where also able to do simple upgrades on the CCC unit, in my case to upgrade my unit to be able to connect AUX Audio. Sending a package from Sweden to Romania took about 4-5 days, but totally worth the wait!
What can I say. Outstanding service, I can highly recommend MCA enough to all of my fellow BMW drivers.
I had issues with my Becker Professional BM54 Amp as I only had one speaker working in my BMW E46 Vert and this is a known issue with this particular amp. The quality of work done on the amp is excellent. I was initially going to send the amp to the UK to get refurbished until I came across MCA by pure chance and thankfully I did.MCA are cheaper and so much faster, sent my amp to Romania from Ireland, amp refurbished then sent back to Ireland all within 10 days...amazing!Guys, thank you so much and I wish you the very best of success.
"The CCC of my 2005 E91 simply displayed...nothing. And it's fan was running continuously, even with the key removed.
It costed me 130 Euros to get a diagnosis from my BMW dealer: your CCC is dead.
They issued an estimate of 1000 Euros for a Standard Exchange+ Reprog.
After extensive research, and contatcs with UK and German Repair Stations, offering quite long delays and not so precise estimates (be prepared for surprises when we receive your module), between 300 and 400 Euros, I came to MCA.
Outstanding ! Within twelve days, the CCC was fixed, for the lowest cost I have seen.
Email support has been quick and friendly, and PayPal payment flawless.
Thanks to MCA for their professionalism and expertise."
Fast and quality service !
I got my E91 -06 CCC fixed by MCA. Very good service and they also kept me well informed during the repair process. Strongly recommended.
I have a Digital tuner connected in my BMW M5 E39 since one year now...
I ve completed my installation with a rear camera pluged at the Digital Tuner,
The product is perfect and all the connection are very clean
The installation respect the original spirit of BMW manufacturer
I'm very happy. Very good job!
Thank you
Fast and very detailed response for every time, I have asked something about
CCC-repair service.
I really can strongly recommend MCA shop for everyone, who needs help for
BMW CCC-units!
Thanks a lot for a fast and professional service! 😉
Amazing company. I'm located in United States. Mura Car Accessories fixed my BMW E60 CCC unit. I was getting the dreaded BMW logo reboot on my iDrive after every start. My unit would not start successfully. I sent my unit over to Mura Car Accessories via USPS Priority Mail Express International and they repaired it within a few days and sent it back. Full turn around time from Romania back to me in United States was about 26 days (this is with express mail service) due to transit times but everything was well worth the wait. The service was at a great cost and it sure beats purchasing a new unit for more than triple the price! I would recommend this company to anyone who wants to resolve their BMW CCC unit from any sort of failures. Don't hesitate to use them! They are 100% legit and very fast with communication. A++ service!
They repaired my faulty CCC drive from my e60 535d 2006, it was showing bmw logo. It's up and running again. Fast and reliable service. Amazing company. Fast and very detailed response for every time.The total cost was less than 250 euros! Highly recommended!
Perfect service. Very fast shipment back to our place with a device full repaired.
Everything is working perfectly.So much cheaper than expected/told by BMW.
Thank you ! Hignly recommended.
These guys were fast in fixing both my CCC and MULF. And they did some coding on another module that I wasn't able to do myself. Highly recommended!

Have you ever noticed that you make the very same mistakes again and again when dealing with people?
I like to refer to this as... the futility of repeating what does not work! And we all fall into this trap to some degree. We become so used to not being able to do something that we think it cannot be done.

Aurora Borealis
A light in the sky
Northern lights are wery often seen in Iceland, but we can not order it at any time.
Day 1
Arrival in Keflavík, meet & greet with your driver/guide.
We start driving up to the famous Geyser area in our comfortable Super Jeep where we stay overnight. Over a good dinner we go through our program for next days and get a briefing about the Northern Lights. After dinner we go for our first Northern Lights hunt.
Day 2
Just after an early breakfast we explore the area of the great Geyser. We will see the geyser Strokkur spout boiling water to the height of 25
to 30 meters. We then head up the road to look at the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall cascading down the white coloured Hvítá river with its powerful glacial run-off waters. After seeing
these two magnificent sights we head south through the agricultural headland of southwest Iceland along a river valley with small settlements. After about an hour drive south we turn eastwards along
the south coast of Iceland
and pass stunning waterfalls such as Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss before we reach the beautiful and small village of Vík. We have lunch in Vík or its neighbourhood.
From Vík we head over the incredible expanses of black sands from the volcano Katla. And there is more to come because then we drive through the largest lava field that has run in Iceland?s historical times. Eldhraun is a mossy grown lava field from 1783. The lava field is 565 km2 in we reach the glacial lagoon in the afternoon after an impressive drive past towering mountains and glaciers. The glacial lagoon is probably among the most powerful sights in Iceland. After we have admired the icebergs for a while and possibly spotted some seals we go to our hotel in the town of Höfn in Hornafjördur fjord. Nightly hunt of the Northern Lights.
Day 3
We are staying in the realm of the great Vatnajokull glacier and drive to the glacier to experience the size and vast expansion of the largest ice cap in Europe. We start a visit to the Glacier Museum, before we head up to the real Vatnajökull glacier, the 8.300 km2 big ice cap. On the way we might spot reindeers roaming around. We have a picnic lunch on the glacier. Optional today is different activity such as snowmobiling tour. In the afternoon we return back to Hornafjörður after adventurous day where we relax before our nightly Northern Lights hunt.
Day 4
After breakfast we depart for Reykjavík with Air Iceland, the domestic flight. You are picked up from Reykjavík airport and transported to your hotel. Rest of day is at your own leisure. (-Such as visiting museums and galleries, shopping, dinner, nightlife, etc.)
Day 5
Departure for the Keflavik international airport or an optional extended stay in Iceland. It is possible to extend the tour for additional days and more excursions, or just enjoy a relaxing time in Reykjavík.

Tamluk: Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday laid the foundation stone for a university named after Mahatma Gandhi that will come up at Tamluk in East Midnapore. This apart, she announced renovating the Gandhi Bhavan at Beleghata in Kolkata at a cost of Rs 3.5 crore.
A separate program was organized by the Mahishadal Panchayat Samity In Bamunia. For the administrative work, Midnapore district was divided by two East and West. But after the division of the district, the demands of separate university in East Midnapore were not being fulfilled.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has announced earlier that she would set up separate university in East Midnapore, during the visit of Digha. Haldia Development Board gave clearance to set up a university on 20 acres of land in Bamunia Mouza. And on the same day, the work of building new universities began.

Amazon.com is my favorite place to shop. It is the "magic bazaar" where you can window shop, read buyer reviews and do all the research a smart consumer will ever need to make smart buying choices. If you can cobble together $25 bucks worth of purchases they'll ship it to you for free, and they nearly always offer the best price. When I have needed to contact customer service, whether by phone or email, I am assured prompt and courteous attention.
While I am not a big buyer of general goods, when I do choose to buy toys, a camera, an RV accessory, a household item or anything else I generally choose Amazon.
My biggest purchases from Amazon are for books. I bought an Amazon Kindle and now enjoy buying e-books at steep discounts. It adds up to alot since I read about a hundred books per year. The Amazon Kindle lets me sample books before I buy, offer free books from up and coming writers, and I have my choice of a few million royalty free books to download for free.
I'm now ready for Amazon to expand their horizons. We could have Amazon list all of our Presidential and congressional candidates, document how they voted on specific legislation, along with reviews from their consituents so we could see how theyh're really doing. We cold scrap the current dirty fund-raising methods currently employed and have Amazon handle the candidate contributions and document who gave what to whom. We could name Amazon the "sole-source provider" for those $4,000 dollar toilet seats and $5,000 dollar hammers that the Defense Department procures from the most generous defense lobbyist.
We could have Amazon assume the current duties of the IRS; their customer service would certainly improve. Gotta go, I'm doing my taxes and I'm only up to page 336 of the current tax code.

SunTrust Center is a Class "A" Office Building located at 200 South Orange Avenue in Orlando, Florida.
Constructed in 1988, the SunTrust Center was designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill of Washington, D.C. and built by McDevitt & Street of North Carolina. The project consists of two buildings, a 30 story Tower and a 7 story Park Building.
The project's overall design is modernistic - the tower is topped by four, five-story fiberglass green turrets and dominates the Orlando Skyline due to its size and unique design. The facades of the two buildings are constructed of reinforced concrete and contain granite and marble finishes, emphasizing pastel colors from the Texas Pink granite and rose-hued windows.
The property's exterior appearance is further enhanced by a park-like setting on the front (east) side of the Park Building. This includes a large grassy area bordered by picnic seating, fountains, raised granite encased planters with flower rotations and large tables with umbrellas. Inside, beyond chrome framed glass entry doors; the expansive 8 story lobby atrium is constructed of glass, marble and granite. The lobby atrium features an original sculpture by artist George Segal, illuminating the building's landmark quality. The central lobby flooring, at approximately 7,420 square feet, is a combination of Statuary White marble, Andes Black granite and Grimaldie marble. The lobby walls are made of Indiana limestone with polished marble portals.
On all other floors, the elevator lobby decor consists of cherry veneer wall panels, and white sheet rock ceilings with recessed canister lights around the perimeter. The twelve passenger elevator cabs' interiors are similarly finished, with cherry veneer wall panels.
The property also boasts a state-of-the-art Fitness Center and conference center, both located in the Park Building. The sophisticated Conference Center features an open lobby/sitting area suitable for multi-purpose use, two small meeting rooms and one large meeting room. The Fitness Center facility, known as Park Fitness, is equipped with state-o-the-art fitness equipment, a group fitness studio, locker rooms with showers and an on-site Fitness Consultant.

Multiscale representation of simulated time
To better support multiscale modeling and simulation, we present a multiscale time representation consisting of data types, data structures, and algorithms that collectively support the recording of past events and scheduling of future events in a discrete event simulation. Our approach addresses the drawbacks of conventional time representations: limited range in the case of 32- or 64-bit fixed-point time values; problematic rounding errors in the case of floating-point numbers; and the lack of a universally acceptable precision level in the case of brute force approaches. The proposed representation provides both extensive range and fine resolution in the timing of events, yet it stores and manipulates the majority of event times as standard 64-bit numbers. When adopted for simulation purposes, the representation allows a domain expert to choose a precision level for his/her model. This time precision is honored by the simulator even when the model is integrated with other models of vastly different time scales. Making use of C++11 programming language features and the Discrete Event System Specification formalism, we implemented a simulator to test the time representation and inform a discussion on its implications for collaborative multiscale modeling efforts.

Prince of Persia: Rival Swords is a portal third-person action adventure video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal, Pipeworks and published by Ubisoft for the PlayStation Portable, Nintendo Wii. Like Prince of Persia: Revelations, Rival Swords is a direct port of Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones[2], released for Sixth Generation Consoles and the PC in 2005. When released on the Nintendo Wii, its control scheme was modified to suit the needs of the Wii Remote.[2] The game was released April 3d and 5th, 2007[1]. It was rated T for Blood and Violence by the ESRB unlike its original which was rated M.
Official Description
- "In Prince of Persia Rival Swords, the Prince makes his way home to Babylon, bearing with him Kaileena, the enigmatic Empress of Time, and unspeakable scars from the Island of Time. But instead of the peace he longs for, he finds his kingdom ravaged by war and Kaileena the target of a brutal plot. When she is kidnapped, the Prince tracks her to the palace – only to see her murdered by a powerful enemy. Her death unleashes the Sands of Time, which strike the Prince and threaten to destroy everything he holds dear. Cast out on the streets, hunted as a fugitive, the Prince soon discovers that the Sands have tainted him, too. They have given rise to a deadly Dark Prince, whose spirit gradually possesses him."
- —Official description[3]
- Prince - The protagonist of The Sands of Time Trilogy, the Prince returns to his home in Babylon to find his kingdom under siege by the Scythians, led by the Vizier. When Kaileena is killed, he is infected by the Sands of Time and his darker persona is given sentience in the form of the Dark Prince.
- Dark Prince - The Dark Prince is agglomeration of the Prince's darker qualities and guides the Prince through the transition of his powers when he takes over his body. Though he appears to be an ally of the Prince, in truth, the Dark Prince works toward his own goals for power and control over his dominant persona.
- Kaileena - The Empress of Time narrates the harrowing tale of the Prince after she is killed and the Sands of Time are recreated by the Vizier.
- Farah - A prisoner of the Vizier, Farah inadvertently reunites with the Prince and works to free Babylon's citizens from the reign of the Vizier, now a self-proclaimed god known as Zurvan.
- Vizier - Resurrected by the actions of the Prince (who prevented the creation of the Sands of Time by rescuing Kaileena), the Vizier continues his quest for immortality and earns it when he kills Kaileena and recreates the Sands of Time.
- Zurvan - The alter ego of the Vizier, Zurvan reigns over the Prince's kingdom with the powers of the Sands of Time and the Scythian army, transformed into Sand Creatures.
- Main article: Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
- Main article: Vizier's Generals
- "Based on 2005's Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones, this first entry in the series for the Wii takes advantage of the system's revolutionary controllers. Players will be able to clash swords with enemies, execute speed kills and perform the Prince's well-known acrobatic moves such as running on walls. The game creates an epic experience by combining two playable characters in gameplay that mixes combat, platforming, puzzles and a compelling storyline."
- —Official description[4]
Prince of Persia: Rival Swords was received with mixed to average reviews from the gaming press and users alike. In general, Metacritic gave the PlayStation Portable and Wii a 74 and 70, with a user score of 8.1 for the PSP and 7.8 for the Wii.[5][6] GameRankings gave Rival Swords 70.44% for the PlayStation Portable and a 71.22% for the Wii.[7][8]
Gamespot.com PSP version of Rival Swords a generally favorable review with a score of 8.1, outlining the positives of the the game's transistor from home console to portable systems, while highlighting the setbacks of the game (graphical downgrade, audio issues and mini-games)[9]
IGN.com's review of the Wii version of Rival Swords, which featured a toning down of violence, blood and gore, was also favorable, their major quibbles being the $49.99 price tag and control issues with the camera. The game's only major difference, the implementation of the Wii remote, worked for a more immersive player experience, but also made for unnecessary difficulty as the camera controls were "sloppy" and slow to respond.[1] GameTrailers.com review for the Nintendo Wii was not dissimilar from the aforementioned, however, believed the story (dependent on the previous games) would leave newcomers "lost".[2]

Flooring in the food and beverage industry requires the best concrete protection due to the extreme conditions to which it may be exposed. No matter the application domain in the food industry, protecting this concrete will extend its lifetime while responding to the industry's needs.
Description of the Food and Beverage Environment
Environment characteristics
- A high standard of hygiene is paramount throughout the industry as a whole.
- Subject to intensive cleaning methods, such as daily pressure washing and corrosive chemical agents.
- High risk of ponding water, damaging oils and chemicals, as well as other hazardous wastes and substances.
- Health and safety risk of slippage.
- Proliferation of bacteria is one of the most important issues of this industry.
- Subject to frequent thermal shocks (very high temperatures, vapour cleaning, freezers, etc.).
- High traffic of heavy equipment.
The food and beverage industry includes:
- Food processing
- Agri-food
- Bakeries
- Industrial kitchens
- Cheese industry
- Food services
- Pet food
- Others
Areas with similar attributes and flooring requirements as the food and beverage industry:
- Pharmaceutical industry
- Industries working with chemicals
- Light, medium and heavy industrial manufacturing
- Animal care facilities
- Changing rooms and showers
- Sanitary rooms
- Others
Food and Beverage Flooring Requirements
Temperature Variation Resistance
In a food and beverage environment, flooring may be exposed to different temperatures (e.g., freezers, cooking zones, high-temperature sanitation, etc.). According to the MAPAQ (Québec ministry of agriculture, fisheries and food), complete high-temperature sanitation should reach 77 °C for 30 seconds.
Anti-Slip properties
To minimize the risks of slipping and falling, floors must have a minimal slip level while providing an easy-to-clean surface. Ponding water, oil or greasy substances are often found on the floor in this kind of industry.
Bacteria Resistant and Easy to Clean
A 100% waterproofed flooring that can handle ponding water is essential. Plus, a system that can facilitate cleaning is also expected in this market. As we know, bacteria proliferation is a big issue in this industry, which is why flooring is cleaned up each day with a high-pressure system. The waterproof surface and the absence of floor seals prevent all bacteria proliferation and make maintenance easier.
curing Time
A fast-curing product is essential. Often, we can't stop production for a long time as it would be too costly for the business. Faster curing permits a faster return to production.
Chemical Resistance
Flooring in a food and beverage environment is exposed to harsh chemical spills and frequent cleaning. Products used during the cleaning process are corrosive. But proper flooring will not be damaged, even after many chemical exposures.
Mechanical Resistance
Flooring in this environment or other similar environments is exposed to many mechanical shocks, such as falling equipment, high traffic, and the use of lifting devices.
Food and Beverage flooring requires a surface that is self-extinguishing because the risk of local fire is frequent. For example, if a small fire starts in a room, it will extinguish itself and will not spread.
Odourless and VOC-Free
An odourless and VOC-free floor is extremely important, primarily when the product is installed in an existing factory (upgrade or floor restoration and repair). Minimizing the potential for contamination of equipment is essential to the longevity of infrastructure.
Featured Projects
Big Axe Brewery
System: ALSAN FLOORFLAKE
Area: 418 m² (4,500 ft²)
This customer needed good-looking flooring that was also a heavy-duty system to handle the day-to-day operations of its brewery.
Weston Bakeries
System: ALSAN FLOORGRIP
Area: 325 m² (3,500 ft²)
A high-performance and anti-slip system was required for this bakery. Adding silica sand to the top coat prevents employees from slipping even if there is water or oil on the floor.

Apple has been struggling with stagnating hardware sales for some time now, and has thus shifted a lot of its focus to services. One such service is Apple Pay; and to complement it, Apple has unveiled its first-ever physical credit card - dubbed the Apple Card.
The Apple Card is a credit card that people can use to pay across retail stores with their Apple Pay balance, and earn up to 3 percent cashback on each purchase. Here are 5 features of Apple Card that will come to the US this summer.
As are all things from the company, the Apple Card is made to work seamlessly with your iPhone. The card is connected to your Apple Pay account and you can track all of your charges and payments using the Apple Pay app on your phone.
The Apple Pay app on the iPhone will provide you with detailed charts on your spending patterns. Apple Card uses machine learning and Apple Maps to clearly label transactions with merchant names and locations. Apple Card provides weekly and monthly spending summaries.
All customers will receive a percentage of every Apple Card purchase amount back as Daily Cash. They will receive 2 percent Daily Cash on all purchases, and 3 percent Daily Cash on all Apple purchases, including at Apple Stores, on the App Store, and across all Apple services.
The Apple Card is made of titanium with a super minimal design. It has no card number, CVV security code, expiration date, or signature, but is still more secure than any other physical credit card.
There are no fees associated with Apple Card: no annual, late, international, or over-the-limit fees.

You are the only one I've seen so far that mentions some type of magnified optic. I have to keep reminding people that its a good idea to be able to survey your surroundings from a distance.
Thanks for some great additions to my bug out bag... Bolt Cutters! That's huge, and that pipe wrench is excellent... Never used the Vaseline cotton balls but ill give that a try tonight... I always used dryer let and candle wax- or any fat in general..
Always gotta be prepared. I suggest only one addition a nice high quality radio- UHF/VHF transmitter with AM-FM capability... Picked up a nice one for about 85$.
A tip on making a instructable if other members wanted to use this to get the gear you have in this instructable they would not be able to because you did not exactly give the name of the gear you only put what brand they are ex. SOG,Gerber it would help others if you gave all the specific details
well, if that works great for you that's good. Others might want more instructions. It looks like you didn't put to much thought into this particular one. One photo and a list of stuff isn't much. I hope you will expand on it.
Nice for having some "adventures" in a bug out situation
You missi some simple common and fundamental items. A first aid kit with iodine and bleach, a copy of your documents, a map of your area, some subway/trasport tickets (you should not assume they don't work at all), CASH is KING, soap, uderwear, something to keep you warm as a blanket, rope/paracord, zipties...

Originally published in the NITE LIGHT Natural Health Quarterly, 16th Edition, Summer 2018.
Is your dog trying to tell you something is off? Are you listening?
Just 50 years ago, one in 100 dogs got cancer. Since then, the number has increased to one in 1.65 dogs. Cancer is currently the leading cause of death in dogs (excluding euthanasia by humans for various reasons). Skin disease is the leading reason for elected euthanasia and it's why people often surrender dogs to shelters. These dogs are literally living with debilitating chronic dis-ease their entire lives and, much worse, living in the torment of their own skin.
As with humans, chronic dis-ease for dogs is really a state of imbalance. And it begins with symptoms… UTIs, diarrhea, itchiness, ear infections, yeast overgrowth and anal gland issues are all an effort to say, "Hey, I'm out of balance!" When we simply "treat" or suppress the symptoms using drugs, the issues don't go away. In fact, this only pushes them deeper down in the tissues and creates a much bigger problem for the dog in the future.
Except in the case of a true emergency, when your dog communicates with you by showing a symptom, always seek ways to help your dog heal using natural modalities. The pet health crisis is real. Our pets can't protect themselves — so it's up to us to help them achieve balance in a toxic world. And it's time for us to include our four-legged loved ones on our quest to living a more nourished life.
Let's look at four ways to get your dog started on the journey to real preventative care and root cause healing.
Let Food Be Thy Medicine
What you choose to feed your pet is the foundation of their health. And, let's face it, much of the pet food we find on shelves today is filled with chemicals. Processed pet kibble taxes the liver and increases general toxin levels. Processed wheat and corn are NOT healing foods. Not for humans. Not for dogs. They irritate the GI tract; cause a sudden increase in blood glucose (raising the glycemic index, affecting inflammation in the body); are carbohydrates that contribute to obesity, diabetes, arthritis and inflammation; and are genetically modified. And here's more truth to consider: Dry kibble can sit in a dog's digestive tract like a cement block, sucking up all their body's moisture just to move through. This can cause kidney disease and overall weakness. Ultimately, this process is creating dehydration and stripping the dog's minerals. Without minerals, the body can't make or use incoming vitamins. It's a big problem!
Watch out for the table scraps like sugars, grains, white potatoes, wheat, corn, syrup and bread, as these are most likely only contributing to acidity and inflammation in your dog's body. Carbs increase inflammation! Chronic, hidden inflammation is a silent killer. It's the root of nearly all disease. If it's a healing food, give it. If it's a hurtful food, put it in the compost or the trash! I recommend feeding your dog a balanced, raw food diet that includes meaty bones, muscle meat, organ meat, and fruits and veggies. If feeding kibble, opt for a grain-free version and soak with a little bone broth or raw milk. (Note: dogsnaturallymagazine.com is a phenomenal resource for recommendations on raw feeding.)
Your Dog's Source of Water Matters
Just like humans, pets need clean, filtered water. Consider supercharging their water by adding in cell salts. Healthy cells are essential for a healthy body, and cell salts can be used to restore balance in the body's cells. This is one of the most simple, affordable and effective remedies to begin adding into your dog's diet immediately. BioPlasma is a combination of all 12 cell salts and is a great place to start. Simply add the pellets to your pup's water, and you'll likely notice some positive changes in overall vitality.
Fill in the Nutritional Gaps
In today's toxic world with soil depletion, dogs need whole food supplements to help fill in the nutritional gaps, too. Here are a few of my favorites:
Herbal Trace Minerals is a combination of kelp, alfalfa and dandelion. Rich in minerals, this blend was originally designed as a supplement for pets. It prevents fleas and improves skin and coat health. Just dip the tablet in coconut oil and give to your dog.
Liquid Chlorophyll is nature's blood cleanser for animals. It helps red blood cells take up oxygen and supports the immune system. It aids in digestion and deodorizes the body. Chlorophyll, with its pH of about 11, will help to create an alkaline body as well as dump toxins out of the cells. Simply add a splash to fresh water.
Turmeric is an amazing herb. It has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, wound healing and anticancer activities. Turmeric by itself can be hard for your dog to absorb, so be sure to combine it with a healthy oil like coconut. While turmeric works and is safe, it's a "warming" spice, so if your dog is always hot and seeking out cool floors, turmeric may not be for them.
Pau d'arco kills yeast (especially candida overgrowth) and viruses, expels parasites, relieves inflammation (and therefore pain), enhances immune system function and fights free radicals. It really shines to heal serious internal or external fungal infections.
Hemp-Derived CBD Oil gives the healing of cannabis without the high, as it only has trace amounts of THC. It's incredibly calming to the body and supports both chronic and acute dis-ease. Studies show that CBD oil reduces anxiety, fights cancer, treats seizures and epilepsy, relieves pain, reduces chronic inflammation and autoimmune dis-ease, promotes cardiovascular health, aids digestion and so much more. Holistic vets are also finding CBD oil to be useful in treating acute ailments like sprains, strains, torn ligaments, bone breaks and even during post-operative care to reduce swelling, pain and stiffness. CBD is a proactive preventative (or even lifesaving) herb for many of the issues pets develop. Be sure to choose a quality CBD oil that has lab test results from accredited third-party testing facilities.
Living Pet Probiotic™ contributes to the health and balance of the intestinal tract by supplying the necessary "friendly" bacteria for proper digestion and bowel health. The digestive system is the first line of defense for the immune system. Just add to water and you will see, within days, your animal will be livelier and their energy levels will increase significantly.
Embrace Routine Cleansing
It just needs to be done — the natural way, of course. Pets, like humans, can't escape toxins. Because the liver works so hard at filtering and eliminating all of these toxic substances, it's highly susceptible to serious damage. Milk thistle is a beautiful restorative herb that not only prevents damage to the liver but also helps to repair it. Consider adding milk thistle into your dog's protocol routinely with the seasons, such as every spring and fall.
Trust that as with all things, baby steps are the best place to start. Add a little bone broth to your dog's food, and start incorporating raw scraps and meaty raw bones when you can. STOP feeding your dog carbs of all kinds (yes, even when they give you those puppy eyes) and use real food treats instead. If your dog has serious health issues, don't fall victim to suppressing the issues deeper in the tissues. Instead, work with someone who practices traditional naturopathy to get to the root issue. Just like with humans, the root cause of all pet dis-ease is toxicity and nutritional deficiency. And the more we build up the body with minerals, the more the body will naturally push out the toxins.

For some reason, there is this general attitude that every actor/actress of African descent must represent the Black race as a whole.
That may have meant something in the 1960's and 1970's, but in this current generation; I don't want to be associated with many of those who are part of the Hollywood/Celebrity cliques today. Although many of them can and are very talented and interesting; their lives and behavior are not reflective of the convictions that I hold or the community at large, per se.
I know who I am.
There is nothing that Denzel Washington, Steve Harvey, Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, Laurence Fishburne, Whoopi Goldberg, et al., can say or do that defines the character, intellect and spirit of my being better than I can.
Celebrities are nothing more than an extension of the larger community of our people. They are not spokesman or clergy. They represent a conglomerate that is designed to sell illusion. Nothing more.
When their actions condemn them; the media is quick to come to our community and ask our reaction. As is the case with Tiger Woods. But for those of us who PAY ATTENTION; Tiger Woods condemned himself over 15 years ago on Oprah when he stated that he did not consider himself Black. He looked directly at Oprah and stated that he liked to refer to himself as a "CAUBLINASIAN." And in an audience filled with Black folks mind you. Thus, when he got caught with his pants down with all of those poor white COCKtail waitresses--who just happened to get very rich after scandalizing him...causing his divorce from his very blond Swedish wife; the Black community reminded Tiger of what he said to Oprah in 1997, and thanked him sincerely. For once, this one wasn't on us.
African history is far deeper than what Hollywood could possibly portray, but Hollywood doesn't like Black people and doesn't mind reminding us of that.
Thus, I contend that Black people need to stop looking to celebrities in general as a means of identity of who we are. But we need to always make Black celebrities accountable if what they represent to the media contradicts who and what we truly are as a people.
Can you dig it?

Thanks to SS for this HILARIOUS action shot. We laughed out loud for about fifteen seconds after opening your email. Great work.
Also, why is he so close to Newspaper Man when there's all that room to his left? Inconsiderate in every way possible. He should have offered Newspaper Man a bite.

Simply Chocolate Chip Cookies from Keebler
May 15th is "National Chocolate Chip Day" and in honor of that I wanted to share a review of a product I was sent months back from Keebler through the Amazon Vine program. These are the Keebler Simply Made cookies in the Chocolate Chip variety. The point of this brand is that they are made with basic ingredients no added components that you can barely pronounce or which have questionable health benefits and seem more like cost cutting measures than anything else. The ingredient list here only has: wheat flour, semisweet chocolate, sugar, butter, canola oil, "natural flavor," baking soda, salt, vanilla extract, eggs. However when you look a bit closer you do see other ingredients like "dextrose" as well as just plain "sugar" in the chocolate so the ingredients are not as simple as what you might be led to believe. Those chemical names are just extracted forms of what you and I might call "simple ingredients" yet it felt disappointing, but not surprising, to see them at all. I'm sure many of you reading this are principally interested in the taste and texture of the cookies.
Two cookies equal one serving so your Chocolate Priestess tried two and shared the rest for this review. Each cookie is two inches in diameter but these are also the thin, crispy variety of cookies not the thick, chewy type I personally prefer. This isn't about my preference, this is about the chocolate so look first at the amount of chips. The amount you can see ranges from one or two to nearly a dozen and given the thickness of the cookies there probably are not many more hidden under the flour part of the pieces. The cookies have a buttery flour scent with hints of slightly bitter chocolate so that's a good sign. We tested them within a few days of receiving them so they did not feel dry to the touch and made a soft crunchy sound when I took a bite and chewed. They have a strong sugar taste along with the butter and flour and if you get a chip a burst of semi-sweet chocolate does pop out strongly but otherwise it really is the dough part you are really experiencing but that's true of all plain chocolate chip cookies, isn't it?
What you may also see in our photos are that most of the cookies remained intact during shipping but some did break up. This can happen in shipping of any type unless you really wrap them well and that adds extra costs. Since you can find these in brick & mortar stores you should just treat them with the same care as you would with any pre-packaged cookie. If you've tried these please leave a comment below and let us know what you think. I wish these were more simply made frankly and perhaps in the future they will cut out some of the other ingredients and truly make this simple chocolate chip cookies. For a mass produced cookie this isn't bad at all.
Later in the forthcoming week I'm going to try and make a chocolate chip recipe in our crockpot and share the results with you. Does that sound fun?

We've seen this movie before. All Blacks fans and neutrals categorise it as science fiction. Disciples of the opposition might describe it as horror, though.
The All Blacks shift up a gear after the break to turn a close race into a comfortable victory. Then the black car retracts its wheels on the hour-mark to reveal the truth: it's not a car, but a spaceship.
Buttons are pressed and switches are flipped. Suddenly the craft is approaching warp speed. Twenty minutes on, and the All Blacks have turned a comfortable victory into a one-sided rout.
There's plenty of evidence to support the claim that the All Blacks have evolved – and enhanced that spaceship –since winning the 2015 World Cup. They've improved in all aspects of the game over the past three years, and have targeted the second half as the best time to exercise their superior skills and fitness.
The battling Boks have averaged 2.5 tries and 23 points per game since the start of the 2016 season. The All Blacks, however, have averaged three tries and nearly as many points (20) in the second half of Tests played during this period.
We saw how the All Blacks toyed with France in June. More recently, we saw how they traded punches with Australia and Argentina in the early stages, and then delivered the knockout blow.
After trailing France 8-11 in the opening skirmish of the three-Test series, the All Blacks put 44 points and seven tries past Les Bleus in the second stanza. They scored 28 points and four tries in the second half of the third Test.
New Zealand overturned a 5-6 half-time deficit to win 38-13 in Sydney. They led 14-7 at the break in Auckland, then shifted gear to hand the Wallabies a 40-12 hiding.
Argentina were commended for their first-half efforts against a second-string All Blacks side in Nelson. The match ended with the Pumas having leaked 46 points and six tries, though, the bulk of those in the latter stages.
It begs the question, were France, Australia, and Argentina given too much credit for their performances, or were the All Blacks not given enough?
The All Blacks will host the Boks in Wellington this Saturday. They will welcome back a host of first-choice players for the clash.
One cannot see the Boks pushing the All Blacks close in this fixture. Indeed, the big question is whether this Bok side has what it takes to avoid complete annihilation.
The Boks lost 41-13 in Christchurch two years ago, and by a record 57-point margin in Albany in 2017. There must be some trepidation ahead of a game that could witness a similarly inflated scoreline.
It's not enough to be within seven points of the All Blacks at the break. The Boks will have to fight tooth and nail this Saturday to prevent the All Blacks from running away with it in the second half.
South Africa dominated New Zealand in 2009, winning all three Tests against the old foe that season and claimed the Tri-Nations title.
Since then, the All Blacks have dominated this fixture at home, in South Africa and even on neutral ground, outscoring the Boks in the second half 15 times in 17 matches during this period.
Last season's meeting in Cape Town witnessed an extraordinary feat in that the Boks scored more points (21) and tries (three) than the All Blacks in the second stanza. It was the only game, however, in which the Boks scored more second half-tries than the All Blacks (between 2010 and 2017).
Since 2016, the All Blacks have averaged 26 points and 4.25 tries against the Boks in the second half. That average is significantly higher than the All Blacks' average against all teams since the 2015 World Cup (20.8 points and three tries).
It's hard to know what to expect from the Boks this Saturday. They've been consistently poor in terms of results over the past three seasons, and are currently ranked seventh in the world.
They've blown hot and cold in 2018. The Boks scored 17 second-half points in the one-off match against Wales after trailing 14-3 at the break. They managed to fight back after some poor starts in the first two Tests against England, and outscored Argentina in the second half of matches played in Durban and Mendoza.
In their most recent fixture against Australia, however, the Boks scored zero points in the second stanza. It's that stat which should worry Rassie Erasmus most ahead of a clash against the sport's most ruthless finishers.
