I was looking for someone to replace a rotting deck. Anthony came over and looked at deck and gave us a quote. He was a pleasure to meet and I would have hired him, but the original builder of the deck was shocked at the condition of it and will repair at his cost plus discount. will call Anthony for any other repairs I might need in the future.

The STLFD referred me to the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department. A detective (remember--I don't do names. I wrote down the phonetic spelling this time, but left it at work) returned my call today while I was at work.
Essentially, the conversation in my cubicle quickly became a trial of my logic and a defense of Blairmont. Also interesting was that the detective was fully aware of who or what "Blairmont" was, sometimes referring to the company as a "he" (Paul McKee, Jr.?). Read on.
As usual, this is NOT an exact transcript, just my memory of the exchange. If that sounds altogether too shaky for you to accept, feel free to disregard the post. I was pretty fired up (pun truthfully not intended), so a lot of what was said was burnt into my otherwise wont-to-falter memory.
Me: "I was just calling to see if the Police Department was aware of the owners of the property in that string of arsons last week in north St. Louis, because the Blairmont holding companies own almost all of them."
Detective: "Blairmont doesn't own them all, but, yes, we are looking into the case. Does that settle your question?"
Me: "Well, Blairmont owned nine out of eleven. That's a significant percentage."
Detective: "Well, they own a lot of buildings in the area, so that makes sense" [he laughs]
Me: "The LRA owns even more property, and not a single one of their buildings was burnt."
Det.: "Look. This city experiences arsons quite often. Are you suggesting Blairmont is committing arson? That's a pretty bold claim."
Me: "The arsons just happened to occur in the area that Blairmont is speculating within. Plus, there were eleven. I have been tracking the Blairmont companies through several websites and blogs. They routinely empty out occupied properties. At best, they remove the boards from the windows and at worst they seem to summon illegal brick rustlers. I fully believe that the case is pretty strong against Blairmont. They have an awful track record."
Det.: "I have been on the force for 14 years. These fires are not that uncommon. We've had problems with properties being vacant for years, long before Blairmont. And we've had a problem with arsons long before Blairmont too."
Me: "Well, then, let me ask you: in your 14 years, how often have 11 buildings been put up in flames in the same neighborhood in one night?"
Det.: "It's happened at least two or three times."
Me: "Two or three times doesn't seem like a lot to me. I'd say that this is a pretty suspicious occurrence. Especially when you consider that Blairmont has to take action by June in order to collect on a tax credit act he secured for land acquisition up there in north St. Louis."
Det.: "Why would he burn the buildings? That ruins the brick. Brick rustlers wouldn't want them burned."
Me: "To my knowledge, the fire helps separate the bricks from the wood so they're ready to be stacked and carted away."
Det.: "That's not my understanding. I have to disagree with that. The bricks get charred."
Me: "Well, I'm just stating what I've read on some architecture websites and blogs. Plus, the arsons make for cheaper demolitions, do they not?"
Det.: "I don't think so. I mean, the owner still has to clear away the rubble. I think it might cost more to do it that way."
Me: "I don't have the numbers on that, but I've always thought it would be cheaper to have a fire take down a building, along with brick rustlers, than it is to hire a demolition contractor to take down 75 acres worth of buildings."
Det.: "I don't think so. I think the owner still pays for all that."
Me: "Well, even if you're ready to dismiss that Blairmont might have started the fires themselves, you have to treat Blairmont properties as especially dangerous considering how often they're subjected to brick rustling, demolition by neglect, and arson. Even if it is coincidence, you have to look at the fate of each one of his buildings. They're falling down. One blogger has taken photos for the past 70 days of Blairmont properties. Like clockwork, after Blairmont gets to them, they're turned into rubble and brick rustlers get to them. Seems a little odd to me. If I were conducting an investigation of the arsons, I'd be suspicious of Blairmont. I'm not saying that it's a clear and demonstrable fact, but there is certainly enough circumstantial evidence to warrant an investigation, I think."
Det.: "I have to prove. I can't go on that kind of evidence. So you're wanting to accuse them of arson. That's pretty bold."
Me: "Blairmont has shown such a demonstrable lack of care for its properties in north St. Louis that it's hard to ignore what's happening. I would suggest you visit the blog I'm talking about. It has pictures--before and afters and stuff."
Det.: "What is it?"
Me: "builtstlouis.blogspot.com"
Det.: "Well, I will look into this. Thanks for calling."
Me: "Yeah. Thanks for your time."
The detective's tone bordered on mockery. It sounded as if he was tasked with deflecting public criticism and scrutiny in light of the strong case one could make against Blairmont.
If the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department is not outraged by the endangerment of city residents enough to further investigate (perhaps indirect) foul play by Blairmont, what hope do any grassroots groups and citizens have to fight the urban renewal scheme--or at least involve themselves in it?
Sure makes you wonder.

Something you might not know about me is that Cameron Crowe is one of my all-time favorite writers and directors. Oddly enough, he we also my very first interview when I began my writing career.
Of course, I love his Academy Award-winners Jerry Maguire and Almost Famous – but I also love his critical flips Vanilla Sky and Elizabethtown. From dialogue to mood and tone, his writing very much speaks to me.
Crowe's new film, We Bought a Zoo, stars Matt Damon as single dad who relocates his family to new home that ends up being a zoo. Literally. Co-starring Thomas Haden Church, Scarlett Johansson, Elle Fanning and Patrick Fugit, the trailer for We Bought a Zoo has the classic Cameron Crowe stamp all over it. His signature is evident through its script, music and tone.
I hope you will enjoy this trailer and look forward to the film as much as I do.

Hardwood Kitchen flooring – Features and Benefits
Compared to other eye-catching elements, which usually attract our attention, kitchen flooring seems like a considerably less important. However, this just couldn't be further from the truth. If you really want for your kitchen to be fully functional and visually appealing, then you have to take into serious consideration kitchen flooring, rather than to spend all of your available money and time on bench tops and appliances, among other things. When it comes to your kitchen contemporary design, every single detail matters. Therefore, your preferred kitchen floor can easily ruin it all, or be the last, but the most profound aesthetic touch to determine the overall positive tone.
Our story about kitchen floors eventually has to come down to the materials, you can use. It's of great importance for these materials to correspond with your kitchen structure and above all your expectations. The more you know about these materials, the more likely you're to make the right choice.
Hardwood Kitchen flooring – Features and Benefits
In the world of kitchen flooring materials the hardwood is a timeless classic. If your kitchen floor is to be made of hardwood, then you've ensured a stunning visual appearance for your kitchen, including the appealing warmth for your entire home. In addition, hardwood kitchen flooring is a perfect match for kitchen design enthusiasts, with the primary concerns about the contemporary look and tone. Without any exaggeration, we can freely say that hardwood kitchen flooring will always be a part of the prestigious kitchen style. This claim just couldn't be truer for the open floor spaces, which are extremely rewarding if you choose to include it as your preferred choice.
Hardwood Kitchen Flooring Demands Proper Maintenance
On the other side, you can expect to solve the majority of your efficiency problems, and especially the ones associated with your optimal durability expectations. Again, it's hard to avoid any unintentional exaggerations, but you're very likely to achieve decades of flawless use with this type of flooring material. However, this advantage comes with a price you need to pay for proper maintenance. If you don't treat it properly, your hardwood floor can easily transform from your kitchen's best friend into a worst enemy. Moisture-related troubles are unavoidable, if you allow yourself a luxury of neglecting your gorgeous hardwood kitchen flooring material. Therefore, regular and quality prefinished solutions are an absolute must in this case. You also shouldn't forget that this type of kitchen flooring asks for a top quality of wood. This means that your options are going to be very limited from the very beginning. Nowadays, top quality wood is one of the most expensive and rare materials to look for. Depending on your specific wood type choice and the amount of invested money, your kitchen floor will be more or less unwanted-movement-resistant. In other words, if you can't avoid significant oscillations of your kitchen's humidity and temperature, then this type of kitchen flooring may not be your best choice. Hardwood kitchen flooring asks for a remarkable wood materials expertise combined with the unreserved commitment to pay a great deal of attention to the top class maintenance.

At the end of the month of March 2014, President Obama made a quick trip to Saudi Arabia after having met America's allies in Europe in discussing the Ukrainian Crisis and the annexation of Crimea by Moscow. The hyperbolic rhetoric on European and American sides in comparing and linking Putin's foreign policy to Nazi expansionism in the 1930s brought echoes of a new cold war and conflict in Europe. It was during this period that the perennial problems of the Middle East and the security challenges posed by terrorism and regional wars in the Middle East had been forgotten briefly. The visit by president Obama was to reassure its main Arab ally, Saudi Arabia, that the US had not forgotten the area.
Saudi Arabia's quest for security in the last three decades have seen a primary confrontation with the rising power of Iran and its regional allies in Lebanon and Syria and the attempt to contain Iranian hegemonic ambitions in the Persian Gulf. The second and equally important Saudi concern has been a resolution of the Arab-Israeli conflict, while a more immediate concern in the last three years was the Syrian civil war as one of the conclusive chapters of the so-called Arab Spring that had seen the rise of the Muslim Brothers in Egypt and the defenestration of President Mubarak's regime. He had been a steady reassurance for Saudi security, however when the Arab Spring began, the Saudi perception of Washington's support for the Muslim Brotherhood and the humiliation of President Mubarak in Egypt rankled Saudi leadership.
The Election of a new president in Iran, Hassan Rouhani, and American and European diplomatic opening toward Tehran regarding the Ayatollahs quest for nuclear weapons had alarmed the Saudis to the extent that their top leadership had even approached the Israelis to encourage a preemptive attack on Iranian nuclear installations. The opening with Iran was taking place as the Syrian civil war saw an emboldened Iran protecting Assad's regime against an opposition that had been aided and abetted by the Sunni world principally Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. By March of 2014 however, it seemed as if Iranian military advisors and Hezbollah fighters from Lebanon had been able to stop the Sunni and Islamist radical attempt to seize Damascus. The Saudi support for the Sunni opposition to Assad's rule derived from the close alliance of Damascus with Tehran which had basically become an example of Iran creating client states and rulers in the Levant as its power expanded even in Iraq as Tehran came to increasingly influence Iraqi politics due to its Shiite connection to the new government in Baghdad.
The civil wars in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, and Iranian contribution to instability in Bahrain created critical and strategic concerns in Riyadh to the extent that American reassurance was sorely needed and in fact Obama promised not to agree to a nuclear deal with Tehran if the deal did not put a stop to Iranian nuclear ambitions. It has often been forgotten that regardless of Iranian claims for a peaceful pursuit of nuclear power, the Ayatollahs were busy building long range ballistic missiles that could carry nuclear warheads and certainly were not to be equipped for just conventional warheads. In the months following the opening between Washington and Tehran, Iran began a charm offensive in the Gulf in trying to reassure members of the Gulf Cooperation Council of its peaceful intentions, this is while vitriolic denunciations of the Zionist entity and calls for the destruction of the state of Israel were routine pronouncements by the Ayatollahs in seeking support from Radical Shiite fundamentalists within Iran itself.
Saudi's foreign policies should be understood in terms of not only immediate regional threats, but of domestic developments that range from demands for increasing political participation by the Saudi population, increasing social freedoms for women, and economic policies to favor the replacement of foreign workers by Saudi nationals, a policy that had yet to bear any fruits. Riyad was also confronted by the presence of a Shiite minority in the eastern regions where Saudi oil extraction was concentrated and where Saudi fundamentalist Wahabi doctrine perceived Shiites as pagan and heretics.
There was a second front that challenged the Saudi leadership but has not received and does not receive much academic focus, and that is political violence and instability in Yemen where Shiite groups in the north and al-Qaeda radical sympathizers in the South challenge the government in Sa'ana. In fact, Yemen had seen also an Arab spring chapter where the long lasting president, Ali Abdullah Saleh had been forced to resign in November of 2011. Yemen's exploding population and unemployment were certainly not conducive to political stability in southern Arabia as the Ayatollahs in Tehran were fishing for challenges to Saudi power by supporting Iranian leaning minorities in Yemen, principally the Houthis an offshoot of Shiism. Thus, Saudi Arabia saw itself surrounded by Persian sympathizers whose religious beliefs were considered anathema by the Wahabi establishment that considered itself and Saudi Arabia the purest example of what Islam is supposed to be.
Meanwhile, the American Secretary of State, John Kerry, as he was trying to deal with Moscow and the European Union, was trying to negotiate again the restart of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations for a two state solution, one that could have diffused one of the historic problems of the Middle East and had been a catalyst for rationalizing the failures of the political systems of the area.
Saudi ruler's legitimacy derives principally by their claim on protecting Mecca and Medina as the sacred sites of Islam. In this quest, any challenge to Wahabi legitimacy by Shiite powers is a mortal danger to the monarchical establishment in Riyadh. Thus, Iran is the main security dilemma in the international relations of Saudi Arabia. On the other hand, the profound antipathy and objection to the reality of an Israeli state and Zionism have been part and parcel of the Saudi political, popular, and populist worldview in buttressing a political, national, and religious identity held together by enormous oil revenues, American security guarantees, and religious inspired social and political repression in domestic politics.
President Obama reassured Saudi rulers after his short visit that America's commitment to security in the area was not going to decrease. In fact, by the end of 2013, the United States had agreed to provide Saudi Arabia and the Emirates with over 10 billion dollars worth of new weapons to counter Iranian security threats that were being compounded by Saudi quarrels with Qatar that was being denounced for its support of radical Islamists and Turkey that were perceived by Riyadh as being a threat to Saudi ambitions.
The Saudi rulers were thus confronted by the hegemonic aspirations of Erdogan's regime, Persian-Shiite imperialist ambitions, and radical Sunni Islamist groups that were and are challenging every regime in the Arab world. Washington had thus come to reassure Riyadh that the United States was there. The Syrian crisis was seen more and more as a victory for Iran, thus confronting Saudi Arabia and some of her allies with ever-greater anxiety of Iran's attempt to gain hegemony in the Gulf and the Fertile Crescent. One of the main pillars of the Saudi foreign and defense policy is the Gulf Cooperation Council, however by the time of Obama's visit, Qatar and Kuwait were not in tune with the perspectives of the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Oman, and of course Saudi Arabia. Obama's visit was part of the configuration of American diplomacy as Washington attempted to move from the Middle East to the Far East in confronting trade and security in the most dynamic area of the international system with a rising China challenging Japan and other Asian countries.

Top Gun 2 casts Miles Teller in an intriguing key role.
Recently news emerged that the long in development sequel to the 1980's favourite Top Gun is actually going to happen and it was also confirmed that the long in gestation project would feature not only the original film's star, Tom Cruise, but it would also see the return of 'Iceman' himself, Val Kilmer.
One of the original cast who has no way of returning is Anthony Edwards who's character 'Goose' died in the original, leaving many a viewer fighting back the tears in the darkness of the cinema. News has reached us that whilst Goose can't return, it doesn't mean that his legacy won't live on, with the new film set to feature his son, who according to Variety will now be played by Miles Teller.
The actor, probably best known for his superb performance in 2014's Whiplash, is said to have beaten both Nicholas Hoult (X-Men: First Class) and Glen Powell (Hidden Figures) to the part having tested most sucessfully with Cruise.
The introduction of the character may give away some of the plot for the second film which is so far going under the title Top Gun 2: Maverick and is thought to feature Cruise's character training a new generation of fighter pilots. Could this storyline be taking a leaf out of Ryan Cooglar's Creed and perhaps feature the son of a fallen friend looking for a new mentor and father figure perhaps?
Joseph Kosinski, who previously worked with Tom Cruise on 2013's Oblivion, is set to direct, following on from the late Tony Scott who directed the original and who was actually at one point looking to kickstart the sequel before his death in 2012.
However, Paramount will try to keep a familar feeling to the movie with both Harold Faltermeyer expected to return to once again provide the film's score and Kenny Loggins who recently revealed that he's going to record a new version of 'Danger Zone' with a so far unnamed artist.
Production on the new movie kicked off at the end of May with Cruise revealing the first official photo via his social media accounts. Since then little else has been revealed. Paramount have the movie slated for release on July 12th 2019.

Part two in our Time to Shine Online Dating series.
I am dying to know how you got on with the homework from supersizing your self-love.
What's that I hear? You didn't have time to do it? It's OK, forgive yourself – that's an important part of being your own best friend!
You can always start from today. I have my own self-love check list which I look at regularly to make sure I'm staying on track, which I would like to share with you here:
Self-love check list
- Master the negative voice in your head and replace with a relentlessly positive one, be your new best friend
- Remind yourself why and how you're so great
- Take care of yourself – exercise, eat well, follow good hygiene, leave affirmations on post-it notes around the bedroom, drink lots of water, etc.
- Do good deeds whenever you can
- Remember to be grateful for what you have
- Forgive yourself when you screw up and move on
- Praise yourself when you've done something well
- Remember how you felt when you were at your most self-confident and return to that feeling whenever you need a boost
Fast-track to success
Once you're on track with your self-esteem, we are ready to move on to the next phase. Today my goal is to help you think about online dating in a new way that will help you stop romanticising it and take a more business-like approach.
I know what you're thinking, that doesn't sound fun and it certainly doesn't sound very romantic…
What I'm actually aiming to do is fast-track you to finding relationships that work for you and prevent you from wasting time and energy with people who are wrong for you. That sounds more like it, doesn't it?
Are you planning to leave things to chance?
If you are anything like I was when I started out online dating, you probably have got as far as wondering which pictures you might choose and agonising over what to write on your profile.
You will put them on the first dating site you hear about and wait for the messages to come rolling in. Am I right?
That was me at the beginning – I had no goal in mind and no real idea of what kind of man I was looking for. Instead of being proactive in my search for love online, I allowed myself to be carried along, thinking it was romantic and therefore the best way to find love.
Let's save the romance for the right person
One day the penny dropped after I came home from another tacky date. I wouldn't ever approach my career using this laissez-faire attitude. By using romance as an excuse, I was leaving my future relationship happiness to chance.
From that moment on, I completely changed my approach to finding love online. I would take control by doing the same things I did when looking for a new job.
Unromantic? Yes. Sensible? Yes. Ultimately successful? Absolutely, yes. My advice to you would be to leave the romance for when you find an awesome person worth being romantic with.
Today, I want you to focus on exploring what your ideal relationship looks like and get you to write it down and then visualise it so that you are clear about what you are aiming for.
In our love lives we attract what we think we deserve. What do you think you deserve? After supersizing your self-love last week, I hope you know just how much you deserve.
The more you believe you deserve from a partner, the more you can expect. Establishing from the get-go the boundaries of what you will and won't accept in a relationship is crucial.
Mini exercise – define your ideal relationship
Take a bit of time to answer the following questions writing down your answers. Don't let anything hold you back at this stage.
In my ideal relationship:
1) I value and expect…
trust, loyalty, patience, kindness, spontaneity…
2) I prioritise…
reliability, fun, financial stability, harmony, excitement…
3) I am happy when…
I'm cared for, I'm appreciated, I feel respected, I'm listened to, I can share problems, my partner actively supports my dreams and goals…
4) I love it when…
I am treated to something nice on special occasions, the DIY gets done, I don't have to ask twice, I get cooked for…
5) I would be willing to put up with…
not always being the top priority (for example if children are involved or work is particularly stressful), rows about the small things from time to time…
6) But I would consider these deal breakers…
Never being a priority, not being trusted, being put down in front of others, a lack of respect, not sharing the same values when it comes to money…
7) My goals for my future relationship looks like this…
We will live together, we will discuss our issues when they come up, we will not sweat the small stuff and share the big stuff, we will actively support each other…
How did you find that? Did it come easily or did you struggle to articulate exactly what makes up the ideal relationship for you?
By doing this exercise, you have created your own personal guide to help you determine whether somebody is right for you or not. Exciting, huh?
This will keep you on the straight and narrow and save you from being distracted by the wrong ones as you continue on your online dating journey.
One last thing
Take a minute to write down all the things that might be holding you back from securing your ideal relationship.
Have you written down things like the following?
- I am too old to find love online
- I had my big love and it failed, I won't find love again
- All the good ones are married
- I don't feel attractive enough to go out and find someone who matches up to this
- They will be out of my league
- I don't deserve someone like that
- I won't have the energy to go out and look for this relationship
- I don't have time to devote to finding this relationship
I'm hoping that after last week's look at ramping up your self-love, you won't have included any of the above. However, working on your self-love is an ongoing process so you may well have gone for these sorts of reasons.
Limiting beliefs
What I want to clarify for you here is that all the 'reasons' outlined above are not actually reasons, but what life coaches call 'limiting beliefs'.
The sad thing about limiting beliefs is that they are ideas that are believed by you (for whatever reason) that hold you back from living your life to the fullest.
The exciting thing about them is that they are just ideas believed by you (for whatever reason) and you totally have it within your power to turn them on their head and transform them into empowering beliefs.
It takes practice and a bit of patience while you search for evidence to back up your newly revamped beliefs, but it is so worth it.
Take the time to work through all the reasons you listed above and rewrite them as empowering beliefs. Then write alongside your new beliefs examples of evidence to back it up.
For example:
Old limiting belief: I am too old to find love online.
New empowering belief: I am the perfect age to find love online.
Examples of evidence: Plenty of people find love online in their 40s, 50s and upwards and I have found articles telling their stories. I have found websites dedicated to women of those ages. I have found forums and online networks where women of those ages are discussing how well they are getting on finding love online.
Old limiting belief: I had my big love and it failed. I won't find love again.
New empowering belief: I am looking forward to falling in love all over again with someone equally special, if not more so.
Examples of evidence: There are many stories of people who have lost the love of their life either through divorce or even death who have gone on to find a special love again. There are stories which support the idea that people who are willing to be open to the possibility of a new love, can indeed find it again.
Powerful isn't it?

New Construction Home Upgrades That Are Worth The Investment
Purchasing a new construction home can be very exciting. Knowing that you're the first family to live in a home and everything is brand-new is a great feeling. If you're interested in buying a brand-new home, begin visiting model homes with your real estate agent. When you tour model homes, there may be a specific home that you fall in love with. One thing that you need to know is that model homes have a lot of upgrades, which are not included in the base cost. It can be a good idea to include some upgrades when you purchase a new construction home, but some upgrades are not worth the money. Some of the new home upgrades that are worth investing in include:
The Kitchen
A builder-grade kitchen will be nice enough but nothing special. If you have room in your budget for upgrades, you should definitely consider spending some of it in the kitchen. Upgrading your kitchen during the construction process will help ensure that you don't have to spend money a few years down the road on a kitchen remodel. When it comes to kitchen upgrades, consider taller cabinets made of higher-quality materials, stone countertops, and upgraded appliances. Adding upgrades to your kitchen can increase your home value and make it easier to sell down the road.
Energy-Efficient Options
When you're having a brand-new home built, it is the perfect opportunity to make your house as energy efficient as possible. Spend a little bit more money to have highly energy-efficient windows installed, and purchase the highest-rated HVAC system available. It is also a smart idea to upgrade the insulation that will be placed in your new home. These types of energy-efficient upgrades may cost a little bit more than the builder grade options up front, but in the long run, it will be worth the cost since you will save a lot of money on your heating and cooling bills.
Carpet Padding
Many new homes have a combination of carpeting, tile, and hardwood floors. Whether you plan on having carpet only in the bedrooms or will have several rooms throughout the house with carpet, definitely invest in upgraded carpet padding. Upgraded carpet padding is not the most expensive upgrade available, but it can make a huge difference. Having upgraded carpet padding will make your floor feel much more comfortable, and it can also help your carpet last longer.
Reach out to a real estate agent that deals with new home sales to learn more.

Last month was the hottest May on record, as the world creeps closer to a dangerous threshold
Published Friday, June 5, 2020 11:36AM EDT

Last month was the hottest May on record worldwide, a European climate agency has reported, with temperatures in Siberia rising 10 degrees Celsius above their normal levels.
Globally, May was 0.63 degrees Celsius warmer than the average May between 1981 and 2010, making it the warmest May in this data record, the Copernicus Climate Change Service said.
And when compared with pre-industrial figures, their recordings indicate that the world is creeping dangerously close to the temperature threshold that international organizations warn would be so devastating to the planet if exceeded.
The Copernicus figures correlate to a 1.26 degree Celsius rise on pre-industrial levels for May. Global temperatures must be kept from rising above 1.5 degrees Celsius on those levels to avoid major impacts on the climate, the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has concluded.
May's increase follows a clear trend recorded by Copernicus over the past year. In the last 12-month period up to May, global temperatures were 0.7 degrees Celsius warmer than average -- matching the previous year-long high between October 2015 and September 2016.
Europe generally was slightly colder than average, but with sharp geographical differences, the report said.
The most striking spike was in Siberia, the typically freezing region that spans much of Russia, which was up 10 degrees Celsius on average levels.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has this week ordered a state of emergency in the Siberian city of Norilsk, after 20,000 tons of fuel spilled into a nearby river from a power station in an incident officials are blaming on melting permafrost in the region.
An environmental group has described the damage as "catastrophic," and the concentration of contaminants in nearby waters has already exceeded permissible levels tens of thousands of times over, according to Russian environmental agency Rosprirodnadzor.
Two thirds of Russia sits on permafrost, which is degrading rapidly, puncturing places with giant sinkholes.
It follows a remarkably warm winter in Russia, which would usually be blanketed in snow at the start of a year.
Instead, it saw the hottest winter in the 140-year history of meteorological observations, beating the previous temperature record from the winter of 2015-2016 by 1.3 degrees Celsius (2.3 degrees Fahrenheit), the country's state-run Hydrometeorological Center of Russia reported in March.

Tibet in Turmoil: Canadian bankers and miners help luxury train to Lhasa keep on track amid chaos
April 1, 2008
The Globe and Mail
March 31, 2008
BEIJING -- The timing was awkward, to say the least. On March 13, as
Lhasa was about to explode into bloodshed, a tourism company was
announcing that China's first luxury train would soon be carrying
"travel connoisseurs" to Tibet - complete with butler service "to cater
to the whims of each guest."
The next day, Lhasa was in flames and Tibetan monks were battling
Chinese police. Hundreds of people would be killed or injured over the
following two weeks. But none of the violence has deterred the
entrepreneurs - including Canadian financiers and mining companies - who
still see Tibet as a happy hunting ground for potential profits.
China has banned almost all foreigners from entering Tibet since the
protests began but foreign investors have managed to keep their projects
"We're pleased that we're moving forward," said Bill Edward,
vice-president of marketing at Tangula Group Ltd., which is charging as
much as $5,500 (U.S.) per ticket for the luxury train to Tibet,
beginning shortly after the Beijing Olympics this summer.
He admitted that ticket sales have been "a little bit quieter" since the
Tibetan protests erupted. "But we're still getting requests for group
bookings," he said. "Our plans are definitely going ahead. We're on
track to launch on Sept. 1."
The company says it is offering "the ultimate in luxury rail travel" - a
kind of Orient Express for today's wealthiest tourists. It promises an
experience of "relaxed elegance" that provides "remote exploration in
comfort and style." Passengers will have "privileged access" to
"mystical Buddhist monasteries" and can enjoy the opportunity of
"sipping tea with grassland nomads."
Its train cars will feature flat-screen televisions, wireless Internet
service, entertainment systems, en-suite bathrooms and showers, gourmet
meals, around-the-clock butler service, and in-room "wellness"
treatments. "Every need is anticipated, every whim satisfied," the
company boasts.
Canadian investors were instrumental in launching the luxury train
company, although a majority stake was purchased by a Hong Kong tourism
company for $52.9-million last November. Its 49 custom-built train cars
were manufactured by a joint venture between a Chinese company and two
Canadian firms - Bombardier Inc. and Power Corp.
Some Tibetan activist groups, calling for a boycott of the luxury
trains, have criticized the heavy Canadian business involvement in the
region. One group, Students for a Free Tibet, has said it is "appalling"
that Canadian companies are profiting from China's "colonial policy" in
But Canadian entrepreneurs are still gung-ho on Tibet, despite the
violent protests and the eviction of foreigners from Tibet.
Howard Balloch, a former Canadian ambassador to Beijing, is one of the
shareholders in the luxury train company and served as an adviser to
help it get started. He believes that the Tibet crisis will not have a
serious impact on foreign investors in Tibet. "I don't think this will
deter the Chinese government from encouraging foreign businesses to
invest in Tibet," he said in an interview.
Mr. Balloch, who heads an investment banking firm in Beijing, insists
that foreign investment is beneficial for Tibetans. "I continue to
believe that development is good and has a positive impact on people's
lives," he said. "Tourism brings in a substantial amount of activities
which local people can benefit from."
At the same time, Canadian investors in Tibet should make sure that they
are helping local residents, he said. "I hope Canadian companies will
make a special effort to maximize their benefits to the local community.
If recent events have opened up wounds in Tibet, it's all the more
important to show that their activities have benefits to the local
Continental Minerals Corp., a Vancouver-based mining company, is pushing
ahead with plans for a $500-million copper and gold mine in central
Tibet, even though the Tibetan crisis has disrupted some of its
activities in recent weeks.
"At the moment, it seems to be getting back to normal, and we have no
plans to change our business plan," said Dickson Hall, the company's
vice-president of business development.
"From day one, we have worked very carefully to establish ourselves as
good corporate citizens in the area," he said. "We'll monitor and see
what happens, but we feel that the project will continue."
Continental has finished its feasibility studies and is aiming to apply
for a mining licence by the middle of this year for what would become
the first foreign-owned mine in Tibet.
The company's office in Lhasa was closed for 10 days because of the
violent protests and some of its business was interrupted by the
temporary shutdown of banks in Lhasa, but these were "nothing but minor
headaches," Mr. Hall said.
He agreed with Mr. Balloch that community benefits are crucial to
business projects in Tibet. His company has cultivated relations with
local villagers around the mine site by providing jobs, training, road
equipment, electrification and donations to the local school.
Several other Canadian companies have invested in Tibet and the broader
Tibetan regions of China, including other mining companies and a
producer of mineral water.
Bombardier and another Canadian company, Nortel Networks, played key
roles in supplying equipment for China's controversial railway to Tibet
in 2006.

Dozing Chris is left blissfully unaware of the prank going on around him.
And he is sent crashing to the floor when the jigsaw completes the arc around his head.

Describing it as "one of the most rewarding and challenging experiences of my life", singer, songwriter and actress Mandy Moore has just fulfilled a dream that she has had since she was 18yrs old – that is to climb Kilimanjaro.
Whilst on a break from filming, the This is Us star in partnership with outdoor outfitter Eddie Bauer, accompanied by her fiancé Taylor Goldsmith and a group of friends, successfully summited Kilimanjaro on a 7 day trek that is typical of the climb.
Mandy recounts her journey, which began on the 23rd March in a series of photos and videos on Instagram @mandymooremm which show just how much fun her and her friends had on their expedition.
She speaks of how climbing Kilimanjaro was a deeply bonding experience for the group, and how the simplicity of the daily ritual forced them all to focus on one thing, putting one foot in front of the other in order to accomplish their goal of summiting.
The trek was not without its' challenges though and Mandy describes the tough conditions that they had to overcome on the night of their summit to Uhuru Peak, 5,895m above sea level.
"On the night of our ascent to the summit, we woke up at 11pm (after a few hours of napping) to enjoy a couple of nervous minutes together with a cup of coffee before it was time to gear up in my our warmest layers and start the nearly 8 hour trek to highest point in Africa – 19,341 ft. In total darkness, we took it pole pole (slow slow) and trudged through rain, sleet and snow, where seemingly everything on our person managed to freeze (water bottles, backpacks, our eyelashes, hair, fingers, toes, etc…) Oddly, I've never felt more determined to tackle such a physical challenge before and yet the combined elements of exhaustion and extremely cold weather made it much trickier than any of us were prepared for."
"All of that aside, ultimately reaching the threshold of the true summit was more emotional and overwhelming than I had thought possible. Kilimanjaro demands a lot from those who traverse her trails. You have no choice but to show up. And we did. There's nothing more empowering than realizing that we are all capable of so much more than we give ourselves credit for."
Despite describing herself to Vogue as "not particularly outdoorsy" and never having camped or slept in a tent before, Mandy seemed to have a great time of it and in a comment on her Instagram photo, told Alpenglow Expeditions who led her trek that she "can't wait to find our next adventure". Well done from us Mandy!
A lifelong passion for writing combined with a sense of adventure inspired by the outdoors makes travel writing an obvious affair for Megan.

Halsey called in to talk to Maxwell on Most Requested Live. Check out the interview below!
On adding Big Sean and Stefflon Don to "Alone":
"Me experimenting with the world of features has been a journey... I don't do this a lot, but the thing that's cool is that both of them add to the narrative in such a special way... all those different perspectives make the song so cool... when I got it back I was jumping up and down."
On the perfect fortune cookie:
"Everything will be okay."
On how she and G-Eazy found out "Him & I" had gone #1:
"I think we were in an argument about something - I think we were bickering about something stupid - and the news came in that we had the #1 record... I was like, 'Babe, 'Him & I' is #1.' We were kind of just like, whatever we were arguing about is obviously not worth it... We have incredible lives that we get to share with each other."

Nazi humor and elder bashing. I am so going straight to Hell for laughing. Seriously, this may be the one that sends me to the fires that consume yet don't combust. But how can you not giggle at Sweet Dee's fear of old people? "I think they're gross... you can see through their hands." No wonder our beer-serving ageist puked after her pop-pop stuck his fingers in her mouth. That man was nasty! Which is fitting, since he was also apparently one of Hitler's henchmen. I'd upchuck if one of those freaky people came near me, too. As for Dennis and Mac fighting over the granddaughter of the dead dude they found in the bar, yeah, I get it. After all, it was Haley's sister from One Tree Hill, and we lovelovelove that show. Plus, the fact that they worked their game all the way to the D.O.A's wake almost makes me feel less icky for cruising hot mourners at the funeral home next to my house. Like I said folks, straight to Hell. Thankfully, I'll probably have these guys to keep me company down there. Damian J. Holbrook

- Leak suggests the smartphone will come with a gradient back finish
- Vivo Z5 will be officially launched on July 31
- Vivo Z5 is seen to pack a dedicated voice assistant button
Vivo's upcoming smartphone, Vivo Z5, has reportedly been showcased in a fresh set of hands-on images. The invites for the Vivo Z5 launch event set to take place in China have already been sent out, and the unveiling date has been set for July 31. Moreover, the Chinese tech giant has already confirmed the key specifications of the Vivo Z5, and it is suggested that the smartphone will come sporting an in-display fingerprint sensor along with a triple-camera setup at the back.
Shared on Chinese social media website Weibo, the alleged hands-on images of the Vivo Z5 showcase the retail box as well as key design details of the smartphone. The retail box features a pretty minimal design with just the phone's name mentioned on the front. Moving on to the device itself, the images of the Vivo Z5 show the device sporting a display that has a waterdrop-syle notch at the top and pretty thin bezels. At the back, the smartphone flaunts a gradient design finish and that's where the triple-camera setup is also found. The right frame of the Vivo Z5 is equipped with the volume rockers and the power button, whereas the left frame is seen flaunting in what seems to be the dedicated Jovi AI button.
Moving on, the bottom of the device is seen sporting a speaker grille, a USB Type-C port and the beloved 3.5mm headphone jack. Finally, the images also point out that the Vivo Z5 will include a fast charger in the box capable of up to 22.5W fast charging.
The Weibo listing was spotted by GizmoChina. The Vivo V5 official launch is very near and we'll get to learn more about the device on July 31, when the company will officially take the wraps off of the smartphone. If you can't wait, then you can check out our previous report on the Vivo Z5, as the smartphone has already been listed on TENNA for a pretty long time now, revealing some key specifications of the device.

OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the association of blood lead levels (BLLs) with pubertal onset in a longitudinal cohort of Russian boys.
METHODS: A total of 489 Russian boys were enrolled in 2003-2005, at 8 to 9 years of age, and were monitored annually through May 2008. Cox proportional-hazards models were used to evaluate the association of BLLs at enrollment with time to pubertal onset during follow-up monitoring.
RESULTS: A total of 481 boys had BLLs, with a median of 3 microg/dL and 28% with values of > or =5 microg/dL. The proportion of pubertal boys increased with age, from 12% at age 8 to 83% at age 12 for testicular volume of >3 mL, from 22% to 90% for genitalia stage 2 or higher, and from 4% to 40% for pubic hair stage 2 or higher. After adjustment for potential confounders including BMI and height, boys with high BLLs (> or =5 microg/dL) had 24% to 31% reduced risk of pubertal onset, on the basis of testicular volume of >3 mL (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.73 [95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.55-0.97]; P = .03), genitalia staging (HR: 0.76 [95% CI: 0.59-0.98]; P = .04), and pubic hair staging (HR: 0.69 [95% CI: 0.44-1.07]; P = .10), compared with those with lower BLLs. Pubertal onset occurred 6 to 8 months later, on average, for boys with high BLLs, compared with those with BLLs of <5 microg>/dL.
CONCLUSION: Higher BLLs were associated with later pubertal onset in this prospective study of peripubertal Russian boys.

Kgosi Puso Gaborone of Batlokwa and Tshipe Tshipe of Mahalapye region have been re-elected to their positions of chairperson and deputy chairperson of Ntlo ya Dikgosi.
The duo retained their positions unopposed in an election that took place this morning, Monday January 27.
This year marks Kgosi Puso's fifth term as chairperson of Ntlo ya Dikgosi. He was first elected in 2009, taking over from the late Kgosi Seepapitso IV.
In his remarks, Gaborone said they are concerned about out dated laws that govern the house, adding that the laws are not at par with the developments taking place, hence there is need to change them to enable the house to grow.
"We have made a proposal to the Office of the President for our constitution to be changed," he said.
Gaborone pointed out that they are also concerned by the annual election of the Chairperson and Deputy, and they wish that the two can be elected for a two years term or even five years to enable them to carry out their duties effectively.
"The time has come to give this house its rightful stand. That transformation will enable growth."
Gaborone said they aim to raise the status of the house so that it is able to play its role in the country.
Prior to the meeting, Kgosi Puso said members of Ntlo ya Dikgosi attended a weeklong training in strategic planning at the Botswana National Productivity Centre aimed at empowering them. With the knowledge they acquired Gaborone said they are setting the mission and vision of the house. They are also on their way of developing a strategy map.
The strategy will be aimed at improving the state of chiefs, excellence, preservation of culture and improve the image of the house.

WATCH: Charity takes the spotlight as Run Barbados sets record
It is all about fun, good rivalry and charity at this year's Cave Shepherd Run Barbados Marathon Weekend. (Run Barbados Facebook photo)
The Cave Shepherd Run Barbados Marathon Weekend is here.
This year's edition promises even more excitement and nail-biting
With just a few hours of activities finished, persons have already been able to get a full dose of rivalry and fun, leaving them with great expectations for the remaining activities. And even more is in store, as the inaugural Cave Shepherd Village presents a hive of activities to keep everyone engaged.
Cave Shepherd Run Barbados Marathon Weekend 2018
The record number of persons registered for the three days of activities is another indication of the anticipation around the event.
This was clear when Loop News spoke with Gail Welch, the Executive Assistant to the CEO at the title sponsors of the event, Cave Shepherd & Company Limited:
"The registration numbers are really high and surpass last year - so we have a record number of persons registering for 2018."
Retail Manager at Colombian Emeralds International, Mary Sealy, noted that such record numbers are further evidence of the quality of the event, and therefore part of the reason that company is involved:
"It is really an honour for Colombian Emeralds International to be involved because we like to be associated with anything first-class and Run Barbados is definitely a first-class event."
But it is not only the excitement of it all that has driven these companies to be part of this annual initiative, but the potential to positively impact lives.
Ms Gail explained that the Ganzee 5K Walk taking place on Saturday will give everyone the opportunity to do just that, as she encouraged persons to come out to the walk in aid of the Substance Abuse Foundation:
"This year the charity is the Substance Abuse Foundation and we are extremely honoured to have them be a part of our effort through the Ganzee 5K Walk.
"The Substance Abuse Foundation has recently opened the Maria House, which is the facility for female clients who are challenged with substance abuse. So we are really excited to partner with them to make persons aware of the fantastic service that they are offering."
When asked about the lack of public awareness about substance abuse among women in Barbados, Ms Gail noted that the growing demand among women is why the Maria House was established and urged Barbadians to do their part to help change the lives of these women and their families - stressing that they can register for the event up to a few minutes before it starts:
"That is why the Substance Abuse Foundation sought to create an institution separate from Verdu House which is for the men.
"We really want at least 1000 persons to walk for this charity this year and show their support for the Foundation. The good news is that there is no cutoff time to register for the walk - you can register even two minutes before."

*To say this didn't end well would be a severe understatement. Hey, by now you guys know I love animals. I've even been on a horse or two in my life. Since I live near horses, I even stop to pet and feed them carrots on occasion. But even with all this love, I would think twice, no three times, before straddling a retired race horse and having them open the gate. But then again my name is not Nick Bull.
He's singing the 'Sorry' tune now.
Shamrock, who once enjoyed life as a racehorse, took off like lightening with poor Mr. Bull on his back. He must've been having a flashback to the good 'ol days because he started running faster and faster. Poor Mr. Nick was screaming things like, "Whoa Shamrock," "Dear Jesus," "No Sham…for f*ucks sake!" and anything else he could think of.
But alas, it was too late. Shamrock was in another world by then.
Eventually…and I do mean e-v-e-n-t-u-a-l-l-y, Shamrock couldn't take it anymore and Mr. Bull, well, I'm not going to spoil it. Scroll down and watch how it ends for yourself.
At least he's got a sense of humor. HE uploaded the video to YouTube.
I swear, I can't stop laughing.
Warning: You may break out into severe laughter…Oh yeah, and hear some strong language.
I have one question: Where is Shamrock?
