The TEFL Academy review, submitted by Mark.
I have been teaching for a few years now and needed to get hold of a TEFL certificate due to the recent clamp down over here in China-meaning all teachers are expected to have one now. Because of this I chose the first one I saw which fit my budget and the TEFL Academy just so happened to be the one I chose. Thought the course was alright (besides a poor decision to rely on Wikipedia and About.com for course content) and it was a good means to an end for me. Not really sure if I would recommend it to people starting out fresh, but it would be ideal for someone who just needs a cheapo TEFL certificate. China accepted the certificate so don't sweat about it being recognized or not.

It's a show on its own: watching the pizza chef at your favorite restaurant toss freshly-made dough into the air before serving it up to your table—and your tummy. But this particular pizza shop owner certainly dishes up a different set of looks with his spinning talents. As a thirteen-time World Pizza Champion acrobat, Justin Wadstein knows how to put the "oh!" in dough.
From what started as a side-act in a family show, blossomed into many fiery performances. Every year participants from all over the globe compete for the title of World Pizza Champion at one of two competitions in Italy and in Las Vegas, Nevada. The elaborate two-to-three-minute routines set to music resemble a similar act to that of rhythmic gymnastics—but, instead of colorful ribbons, the competitors use pizza dough!
During his first competition, Wadstein competed in Las Vegas, bringing home first place in the United States and fourth in the world. It was during this contest that he met 13-time World Champion, Tony Gemignani. As a seasoned pizza spinner, Gemignani has been a great friend and inspiration for Wadstein's work. Eventually, he even added the element of fire.Wadstein has now integrated his love of performing with his love of cooking. His day-to-day life as a chef has allowed him to express his pizza-spinning abilities alongside his delicious pizza-making skills. This thirteen-time champion is certainly bringing home the dough with his thin crust and his spin crust.

You bought your electric car in order not to pollute the environment and also to save some money. But you often have to hear those guys that have not even made the effort to inform themselves properly that your EV is dirtier than an ICE car. There is a way to definitely dismiss this sort of conversation: by installing solar panels in your house. And eventually getting rid of your power bill in the process.
This is what Sean Mitchell tells us in this video with one of his real-estate clients. Mitchell helped him find the ideal home for the installation of a Tesla Solar System with 30 panels, each being a 330W Panasonic panel. All of them together are able to generate 9,900W, or 9.9 kW. With a 10 kW inverter.
Ever since, the owner of the house managed to not spend a single penny on electric energy. But he has to pay monthly installments of $225 for a 10-year financing of $30,600 for the whole Tesla Solar System.
He believes he would be paying more for power if he did not have the solar panels installed. And also that he will eventually just have free energy as soon as the financing is over. Which may be true if the panels last more than ten years without a lot of need for maintenance.
There are some interesting aspects of having such a system. If you are generating your own electric energy and have more than you actually need, for example, the energy provider may not pay you a lot of money for the extra.
They will probably pay you a lot less than what they charge you for the power they provide. And a lot may be a euphemism.
Does it pay off to spend that much money on solar panels? Watch the video and find out what Mitchell's client has to say about that.

Also, the BODHI PROJECT company members have the freedom to attend all and any of the technical classes in SEAD's Professional Undergraduate Training Program "Artist in Process" and will have different opportunities for joining workshops throughout the year.
The mornings begin with technical classes and in the afternoons the BODHIs are either working in creations, rehearsing, performing, etc..
Once the new creations are completed, a trailer is made and sent to various venues and Festival organizers. The tours are then during the academy year.

On Friday night, the semifinal line-up completely emerged in the prestigious season-ending finale at O2 in London, where Barclay's ATP World Tour Finals will conclude on Sunday. The last man to enter the last four in men's singles was Stanislas Wawrinka, who got the better of Marin Cilic in three set 6-3, 4-6, 6-3. Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Kei Nishikori also ensured their places in the semifinals on Thursday and Friday. While Djokovic and Federer didn't have to break sweat in their matches against Tomas Berdych and Andy Murray respectively, Nishikori needed three sets before beating David Ferrer 4-6, 6-4, 6-1. Incidentally Ferrer came as a perfunctory replacement for Milos Raonic, who pulled out mid-way through the tournament due to injury. In Saturday's semifinals, Djokovic will take on Nishikori while Federer will play compatriot Wawrinka for the places in the final on Sunday. In the men's doubles first semifinal on Saturday, I Dodig/M Melo will meet L Kubot/R Lindstedt, while in the other semifinal the Bryan Brother will play against J Benneteau / E Roger-Vasselin.
After the Canadian Milos Raonic pulled out of the tournament, Nishikori had to play new man David Ferrer on Thursday night and needed to beat the Spaniard for still retaining his chance of making it to the last four. The condition was Murray should lose to Federer on Friday. That happened and the Japanese made to the ATP world tour's last four. If Murray had beaten Federer in two sets, Nishikori would have gone out of the reckoning.
Kei Nishikori fought hard after losing the first set 4-6 against David Ferrer in his last Group B match. But the doughty Japanese staged a remarkable comeback by breaking the Spaniard in the opening game of the second set. After that the set went on serves with Nishikori taking it 6-4. Nishikori broke again early in the third set and reeled out 5 of the next 6 points to seal a 4-6, 6-4, 6-1 victory in just under 2 hours. But it did not mean that Japanese had made it to semifinals. His chances rested on the result of game between Roger Federer and Andy Murray on the following day.
Murray obliged Nishikori as he suffered his heaviest defeat ever in ATP World Tour Finals. The Scot was up against the master craftsman Federer, whose fantastic performance left no room for Murray to make any mark. Against a completely dumb-founded Murray, Federer cruised through 6-0, 6-1 in an emphatic fashion. The result was a great delight for Kei Nishikori, who found himself in the last four courtesy a virtuoso performance from Roger Federer.
In the other match on Thursday, defending champion Novak Djokovic beat Switzerland's Stanislas Wawrinka 6-3, 6-0. Wawrinka began with a bang and took a 2-0 lead in the first set. But the 2014 Wimbledon champion won the next 12 out of 14 games and made life difficult for Wawrinka. On Friday, however, Wawrinka defeated Marin Cilic in three sets and since Tomas Berdych had already beaten Cilic in straight sets, Wawrinka needed to win only three games to enter the last four. Despite the minor task at hand, Wawrinka began authoritatively and produced some clinical winners. He won the first easily but his concentration wavered in the second as Cilic resisted sternly and forced the third set by taking the second 6-4. In the third set, Cilic held his opening service game and took a game off Wawrinka to lead 2-1. But Wawrinka came up some stunning display and eventually won 6-3 4-6 6-3.
Djokovic needed just one set from Berdych on Friday but the world's no.1 player demolished the Czech 6-2, 6-2 to set up the semifinal clash with Japan's Kei Nishikori on Saturday. In the other semi-final, Roger Federer will play Stanislas Wawrinka.
In men's doubles, Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan, the three-time winner in ATP World Tour Finals reached the semi-finals after they finished Group-A with a 2-1 record on Friday by beating Alexander Peya and Bruno Soares. It was a hard-fought encounter for the top seeds against third seeds Peya and Soares with the first set going to five deuce-point games. But the Bryans targeted the inconsistent Soares in the tie-breaks and won at 7-6, 7-6. On Saturday, the Bryans will meet fourth seeds Julien Benneteau and Edouard Roger-Vasselin in the second semi-finals. The other men's pair to reach semifinals was the Polish-Swedish team of Lukasz Kubot and Robert Lindstedt. They completed the round-robin play in Group with a 3-0 record with a 6-4, 7-6 victory over fifth seeds Jean-Julien Rojer and Horia Tecau in 88 minutes. For a place in the final, Kubot/Lindstedt will play the first semifinal against Ivan Dodig and Marcelo Melo, who were placed second in Group B.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine Season 7 Episode 8 Recap:
In episode 8, the Pontiac Bandit, Doug Judy is back. But Jake discovers that his friend is getting married and he is not invited. Obviously, the news ends up hurting him. When Jake asks Judy the reason, the latter admits that he was worried Jake would start mixing with his criminal buddies. In an attempt to reconcile, Judy invites Jake to his bachelor party instead — under an alias. The whole group then reaches Miami for a wild celebration.
As expected, it is not long before Jake's identity is revealed with the arrival of Trudy Judy. On the other hand, Jake learns that Judy's friends have stolen diamonds and he guides them in reversing the heist. However, once the diamonds are safe, Jake calls in the cops and gets the gang arrested.
But here's the twist! Apparently, Judy had planned the entire trip as he already knew that his friends would steal the diamonds and Jake would carry out his duty. Judy's fiancee is a federal judge, and he wanted to avoid his criminal peers during the wedding. He also tells that he had always had only one name in mind when it comes to his best man at the wedding — and that's Jake!
In the other subplots, Terry and Rosa try to replace an important business card on Holt's desk, which was discarded by Terry. The duo is able to solve the issue, bringing this arc to a closure. Meanwhile, the rest of the characters are busy arriving at a decision regarding the new vending machine in their break room. Well, that's all for this week! Tune in for some more crazy goof-ups in the next episode in the upcoming week.

Tweed from Great Britain
Tweed is a woolen fabric, of a soft, flexible texture with small nap, usually woven with a twill (diagonal) structure. There are blended melange fabric or fabric with fancy yarn. Jackets, trousers and headdresses for men are sewed from this fabric as well as costumes, women's dresses and skirts.
Tweed is a traditional English material, a woolen melange fabric from thick untwisted yarn. Warm and soft, fetching and durable, modern and in the meantime traditional it suits perfectly for chilly and rainy weather of Foggy Albion. Tweed's attraction is in its exciting colourings. They are possible because of mixing of freshly painted wool in some pure colours. The yarn in the warp can be bound in six colours, what gives the material a special relief.
Buy tweed clouthes from Great Britain
A genuine tweed suit is heavy, rough and hard therefore it resists very good cold winds, rain, dank fog and even frost. Continental tweed suits in European style are softer and plainer; they can have elbow pads from hard leather, leather buttons and sometimes a lining at the full length of trousers to protect legs from touch with prickly wool. Modern cut of the tweed suit is also very different from the original British style because the true tweed suit has three buttons, a slit from the rear of the jacket, pockets cut out skew, tight trousers without a lining and without gathers. Usual material is rough greeny-brown pane checked tweed. Truly speaking it reminds of a carpet by touch but it is thick like a carpet and, consequently, hardly let wind or moisture in.
Tweed suits can be worn both outside and inside. With ever increasing frequency men, who are obliged to wear a formal suit, choose a little modified variants of the original tweed suit. These days tweed is preferred by professors, creative thinkers and free artists.
In the English shop you can get an original tweed suit, which would be appropriate on the horse race, fields chilled through by the wind and during hunting. If you need a suit to these effects, you can't find anything more pertinent than genuine British tweed.
Tweed wares are a perfect way to diversify your clothes with practical things that can be worn almost throughout the year. If you need a practical elegant stylish and reliable fashion item, which could be your favourite and serve you very long, it's worth to pay attention to tweed clothes.
In our online-shop we offer a wide choice of tweed wares. We have in assortment the most popular and the most famous models including jackets Harris Tweed and other variants.

Pop Psych: Where we ask a real psychotherapist to delve into the mindsets of our favorite pop culture characters. This week: Noah Hawley's Marvel mind-bender delves into sibling insanity.
It's easy when working with any client to place the focus directly on them, to develop a sort of tunnel vision that bends all light until it's all filtered through them. This is doubly true when working with families, and is the sort of therapeutic mistake that is warned against by every book, teacher, and supervisor worth the trouble of consultation. As Humans, we want simple answers; we want small problems with real solutions. As therapists, we have to remember that people live in communities, in systems, and that systems are deeply interconnected. Change one small thing, get large and unexpected results. Something as innocuous as cheaping out on your research could lead to Jeff Goldblum having to outrun a T-Rex.
True to form, FX's new show, Legion, puts the focus squarely on its unreliable protagonist, David Haller (Dan Stevens). We viewers don't know a ton about the guy, which isn't helped by his brain's able participation in creating alternative facts, but when we meet him he is in a psych ward, ostensibly as a result of a suicide attempt. As the first episode goes on, we learn that – assuming what we see is mostly true – he's a man possessed of and by incredible powers to alter the world around him. Further, he appears to be quite magnetic, though not in the mutant sense. People flock to him, whether it be to cure, to befriend, to date, or to use. Say what you will about vivid mental illness, it at least grabs the eye.
Scooting around the edges of the narrative, though, we have David's sister, Amy Haller (Katie Aselton). For as little as we reliably know about David, we know even less about Amy. But because families are systems, and they're from the same family, we can start to make some guesses. We know from the opening montage that David was a firecracker from the start, causing trouble seemingly before his powers started to manifest. Hanging with a tough crowd in the neighborhood, setting fires at school, and getting mixed up with the cops as an adolescent, this kid was obviously a handful. Like I said above, David is magnetic, and without a doubt, he would have some kind of magnetic effect on his parents, either to pull them in or push them away.
Whether their parents move closer to David to try and control him with greater discipline, or further away to try and distance themselves from the heavy responsibilities of raising him, it leaves Amy alone.
Of course, David's parents are Amy's parents, too, and this is where we can start to wonder about her life. Whether their parents move closer to David to try and control him with greater discipline, or further away to try and distance themselves from the heavy responsibilities of raising him, it leaves Amy alone, and with a lot of work to do. If you're an adult, then you know that adult responsibilities are very hard under the best of circumstances. If you have children, then you know that raising children well adds severely to that burden. And if one of your children, who you love dearly, is violent and chaotic, well, you know how little time you may have for anything else.
But the fact is, all children are violent and chaotic. Or, more realistically, all children need special attention from their parents. Some children, ones like David, are more obviously in need. In the world of psychotherapy, these children are called Identified Patients, as it is plain to see they need extra attention. As a result, parents often focus too much attention on them while neglecting their siblings. In the process of doing so, parents will subconsciously send a message to those siblings about how to behave. Sometimes that message is that in order to get attention they need to act up, sometimes that message is that in order to get attention they need to be quiet and helpful, sometimes it's something else entirely. But whatever it is, it has an effect.
[Amy's] mind is more anchored in the fantasy of normality than in the reality of insanity.
In Amy's case, the message seems to have hewed more closely to the "quiet and helpful" option. If you look at how she shows up so far in Legion, it's very meek. She dresses conservatively and seems to espouse traditional conservative values: she brings David a cupcake to the mental hospital on his birthday; she, not their parents, makes an effort to maintain family ties in the face of great suffering. But perhaps more tellingly, she doesn't seem to understand the gravity of the situation. We know that David has been in the hospital for over 5 years, but she still tries to pass him the cupcake, not because she wants to break the rules but because she has forgotten them. Her mind is more anchored in the fantasy of normality than in the reality of insanity.
We see this continue and deepen further into the episode after David escapes from the hospital and holes up at Amy's house. She sets him up on a couch bed in the basement and goes in for a hug. Though she and her husband have been visibly shaken throughout this entire sequence, she leans into David and says, "it's good, it's gonna be good." The glib understanding of this might be that she's trying to convince herself, but that's not quite it. She tells David it's going to be good and, though he obviously knows better than to believe that, appears to do so all the same. He calms down. The music changes over to something that inspires wonder, and he flashes back to being a baby experiencing the simple joy of regular life.
What's going on is that the two of them are re-experiencing their family system and, thus, their childhood. A childhood in which it seems likely that Amy ended playing the role of the caretaker (something we see Lenny (Aubrey Plaza) do as well, briefly, right before David snaps at the hospital). Of course, this isn't really fair to Amy; children aren't supposed to be caretakers. Sisters shouldn't have to raise brothers. But sometimes the normal rules go out the window and family systems make do.
The result, though, is not just that Amy loses much of her childhood to playing grown up, but that her grown-up life ends up being formed by her childish vision of it. This may be why she seems so out of step with the world, why she seems so old fashioned. She had to learn to be an adult when she was still a child, which meant growing into a child's fantasy of adulthood. Which is not necessarily a worse (or better) option, but, like all options, comes with the cost of every other option not pursued. Who knows who she would have been if she had time to choose carefully?

Average Health Insurance Cost by Age and State
Healthcare has been one of the biggest talking points in politics over the past several decades. Health costs and the ability of the average person to afford them have been at the forefront of many presidential and Congressional debates -- from arguments for and against the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to the rise in insurance premiums to growing support for Medicare for All plan.
Many factors determine health insurance rates and premiums and what's offered. Individuals seeking healthcare may have options provided by an employer or may get health insurance through the ACA. Depending on a person's income and health, he may have several options to choose from or may only be able to qualify for certain plans.
With this in mind, what does the average health insurance cost?
Average Health Insurance Costs
With so many different variables impacting how much health insurance will cost a person on a monthly or yearly basis, we're better off breaking things down instead of giving one general number.
So what are some of the biggest factors in determining how health insurance costs can vary? Certainly, the type of plan someone has and the tier of the plan she has to go a long way. Medical history -- not to mention whether the person is a smoker -- can play a role in whether insurers give a higher rate. Someone in need of insurance for a family is going to have a higher premium than someone seeking an individual plan.
Two factors that can also play a large role in healthcare rates and premiums is how old someone is and where he lives.
Average Health Insurance Cost by Age
Age plays a big role in the cost of a premium for health insurance; generally, younger people have lower premiums, as they are seen as less risky and less likely to require more medical care.
Often, the starting point for an insurance rate is based on that of an individual who is 21 years old. According to ValuePenguin, the average health insurance premium for a 21-year-old was $200 per month. This is also an average for a Silver insurance plan -- below Gold and Platinum plans, but above Bronze plans.
How does the breakdown of premiums by age look? Slowly in small increments, the average premium will increase. Ages 21-24 were all consistent at $200, but at 25 the premium goes up to $201 -- about 1.004 x $200.
Slowly the amount it goes up increases. At 26 the average premium is 1.024 times the base premium, up to $205. By the age of 30, though, it has gone up for an average premium to $227, or 1.135 x $200.
Going through the list of ages, this pattern is pretty consistent. The average premium for a policyholder at 35 years is $244, 1.222 times the base rate; at 40, it's 1.278 times that rate to bring the average premium up to $256.
From here, though, the premiums start going up at higher rates. The average health insurance premium for a policyholder at 45 is $289, up to 1.444 times the base rate, and by 50, it's up to $357, which comes out to 1.786 x $200.
After age 50, premiums rise tremendously. At age 53 the average premium is more than double the base rate, and by 55 the average premium is $446. At age 60, the average premium is $543. If a person is 64 years old, the average health insurance premium is $600 - 3 full times what it is at 21.
It is also important to note that while this is a general guideline, prices vary dramatically from state to state. Some states, like New York, don't factor age into premiums at all.
Average Health Insurance Cost by State
Residents of different states can see some pretty stark differences in the average cost of health insurance. Which states have the highest premiums, and which ones have the lowest?
Using ValuePenguin data on certain states, the state with the highest monthly rates is Alaska at $426 for a 21-year-old. Multiplying for someone who is 30, that becomes $483.51. It becomes $544.43. for a 40-year-old, and a whopping $1,156.16 for a 60-year-old. The second-highest rate is in Wyoming at $366. Doing that math again, for those who are 30, 40 and 60 that figure turns into $415.41, $467.75 and $993.32, respectively.
These are particularly extreme examples, but even states that aren't quite as high compared to the average rates can have monthly premiums not everyone can afford. The average health insurance premium for a 21-year-old in Florida is $285; not as large as Alaska or Wyoming, but still a lot, especially as a person gets older (for someone who is 60, the rate is $773.49).
Still, there are states where premiums aren't as expensive as these. Utah, for example, has an average cost of $180. While $180 can still be quite a lot of money per month for someone working in Utah at 21 (or $488.52 at 60), it is still a lesser figure than other states. In Montana, the average health care premium for someone at 21 is $210 per month. Check your state for more details, because the range of premiums can vary even more wildly than you may expect. ValuePenguin's list did not include every state, such as Massachusetts.
Average Health Insurance Cost by Plan
Less surprising, though, is how the cost will differ based on the plan you use. After all, different plans offer different services, and those with more services and flexibility come at the price of a higher premium.
The four types of plans you may be able to get for your health insurance are a health maintenance organization (HMO), point-of-service (POS), preferred provider organization (PPO) and exclusive provider organization (EPO). Per ValuePenguin, the average monthly rate for a 21-year-old on each plan is:
Average Health Insurance Cost by Plan Tier
In addition to the different sorts of health plans, the offerings tend to get divided even further into "metal" tiers, as well as a lower "catastrophic" tier. These metal tiers -- Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum -- all offer progressively more coverage for medical care, and that results in progressively higher premiums for each tier.
For a policyholder 21 years of age, the average monthly premiums by tier are:
- Catastrophic: $167
- Bronze: $201
- Silver: $247
- Gold: $291
- Platinum: $363

Sublimation Tie-Dye T-shirt with Artesprix Markers!
Easy & Fun Sublimation DIY T-Shirt Project
Learn how to design an easy Vacation T-Shirt using Sublimation
If your Summer is looking a bit like ours, we are definitely homebound for most of it. This Sublimation Tie-Dye T-shirt project will make sure you know you can have fun while you are home. We made these awesome T-shirts with Artesprix Markers "Get Lost," theme and we loved how they came out!
My daughter and I love to Tie-Dye, it makes everything bright and cheery!
The key to making this Sublimation Tie-Dye T-shirt Project is that all text needs to be done backward and I have a nifty trick to help with that process. In the sublimation world, we call this, "mirroring." In order for the text to read correctly after the Heat Transfer process, you need to mirror all text designs on your copy paper.
What are Artesprix Sublimation Markers?
Artesprix Markers have the capability to transfer your drawings from any kind of plain paper to any polyester fabric or polyester coated items with our unique sublimation process by simply adding heat and pressure.
2. Copy Paper
3. Heat Tape
5. Artesprix Heat Press, dry iron or home iron
6. Project Mat
T-Shirt Step-by-Step Tutorial:
Step 1.
Tie-Dye your T-shirt using Tulip Tie-dye. Follow the instructions on the packaging and allow your T-shirt to dry before creating a sublimation.
Step 2.
Print out the "Get Lost" graphic below for Sublimation Tie-Dye T-shirt designs.
Step 3.
Turn the print upside down and with a new piece of computer paper on top use the Artesprix Sublimation to trace your design. Remember to mirror the text so that when the text is transferred onto the blank it will read correctly. Artesprix always recommends using a clean sheet for your Iron-on-Ink design due to the unknown of makers ink in their printers that may affect your blank during the transfer process.
Pro Tip: It helps if you have a window nearby or light box to trace evenly and accurately.
Step 4.
When creating the lettering, be sure to use bright colors and a black outline for a nice bright contrast to your t-shirt.
Step 5.
Preheat your Artesprix Heat Press to 370 degrees Fahrenheit.
Step 6.
Secure your design (face-down) to the front side of your Sublimation Tie-Dye T-shirts with Artesprix Heat Tape.
Pro Tip: Leave at least 1-2 inches of space of paper around the traced area so the tape does not cover your design. Just remember, anywhere you place the tape heat your design will not transfer through thoroughly. Artesprix Heat Tape can be used to fix any "oopsie," on your design before transferred. Place a piece of tape over your, "oopsie," and it will not transfer to your blank.
Step 8.
Create a "Sublimation Sandwich" Sandwich your Sublimation T-shirt between two pieces of protective paper and place on your project mat.
Step 9.
Set your Artesprix press timer for 45 seconds.
Step 10.
Take out of Heat Press and let Sublimation Tie-Dye T-shirt cool before handling.
Step 11.
Peel off the paper from your T-shirt to reveal your beautiful completed Sublimation T-Shirt design!
Pro Tip: Be sure to turn off your heat source.

Vizio's new Sound Stand aims to be a simple, cheap ($250) solution for your TV's crappy sound, even simpler and more discreet than a sound bar. But even if it's cheap and convenient, the Sound Stand is less than you bargain for.
What Is It?
A $250 sound system you're supposed to place under a tabletop TV. It's specifically billed for people who don't even have enough space for a sound bar.
Why Does It Matter?
Sound bars have made a lot of headway in recent years in large measure because TVs have gotten so skinny that there's no room for decent speakers in them anymore. Sound bars are also good enough now that they're a perfectly acceptable sound solutions, even for people who would ordinarily buy a five channel home theater system. The sound stand promises to be the same kind of product for an even more space-constrained human.
And if somebody is going to bring a new category to tons of people—especially an affordable one—it's Vizio. The company sells loads upon loads of TVs and sound bars precisely because they're cheap and very high quality. They'll sell you a passable sound bar for $80 and decent sound bar/sub combo for $150. And for $250, you can get a downright convincing 2.1 sound bar system. They don't always have the glitz and features offered by some of their more expensive Asian competitors, but Vizio is impossible to beat on price.
At just 21-inches long, the Sound Stand is considerably shorter than even the shortest sound bars, which usually measure about 30 inches. Theoretically that means the Sound Stand is going to fit in tighter spots than anything else. It is a "stand," so you just plop your TV right on top of it. (Vizio cautions that you shouldn't use a TV larger than 55-inches on it. Which is fine; if you have a 55-inch TV worth of real estate, you should buy a sound bar anyway.)
The plastic enclosure stands three inches high, and it's very bland in appearance, especially when compared to similar new LG ($400) and Samsung ($300), which have a sleek, modern look. This thing looks more like a schlubby cable box than a svelte high-definition panel. And because it's made of plastic and not MDF (wood) like higher-quality sound products, you can expect some rattling and vibration from the get go.
Besides the stereo 2.75 inch drivers in the front, the Sound Stand also has a 5.25-inch down firing subwoofer, which sets it apart from the skinnier stands from LG and Samsung. The back of the enclosure is partially cut away to give the sub a little space to push air.
On the I/O front, the Sound Stand is pretty simple: RCA, 3.5mm mini jack, optical, and RCA coaxial. Yup, no HDMI.
For controls, the Sound Stand is similarly spartan. There are buttons on the side of the enclosure for power, input selection, Bluetooth pairing and volume. In all likelihood, you'll use the included remote, which adds additional controls for treble and bass levels as well as buttons that toggle a couple of DTS digital signal processing modes.
Using It
Setting up the Sound Stand takes about one minute once it's out of the box: Connect the included digital optical cable, plug it into your TV, plug in the power and you're ready to go. Because there are no HDMI ports on the Sound Stand, your TV or some other port-rich device will have to serve as the hub for your set-top-box, Blu-ray player, gaming console, etc. Given the price point that makes sense, though, more advanced users often prefer to use sound devices as media hubs.
From there, controlling the Sound Stand is a breeze When you flip it on, it automatically listens to all of the inputs for a signal and selects the one that you're probably trying to use. The Sound Stand communicates levels to you with a series of LEDs across the bottom left of the stand. Sometimes this scheme can be a little confusing. For example, if you've hit the bass button to adjust the low-frequency response, it lingers on that setting until you hit the bass button again to deactivate it. Nothing major, but certainly not the model of intuitive experience. Bluetooth pairing from your smartphone for music playback works seamlessly.
Up until now, we've got what we'd expect from an inexpensive product. Unfortunately, the actual sound of the Sound Stand left me wanting a lot more, even for the relatively low price. The unit is admittedly very powerful, and when watching big loud action movies like The Avengers, it produced enormous roars and explosions. But for the most part, these roars were distorted and crunchy and not at all clear or nuanced. To make matters worse, the down-firing sub annoyingly rattled the TV stand below it. It could really use some rubber feet to stand on. The Sound Stand certainly did its part to make movies sound huge, but like a juiced subwoofer system in the back of an SUV, the sound was all power and no detail. The same was true for music.
The included DTS TruVolume and DTS TruSurround modes are terrible and you're better off leaving them off. The former is supposed to level out the dynamics of what you're watching so that nothing is ever too loud. The latter is supposed to optimize multi-channel sound for the 2.1 system, providing enhancements like vocal clarity and simulated surround sound. Neither is great.
For best results, turn the bass and treble levels down below "0" and never push the overall power past 60 percent. That's right, use this product to only 60 percent of its potential.
Simple, space-efficient design. Easy to setup.
No Like
Few advanced features. Sound is subpar, even for a $250 product.
Should I Buy It?
Nope. Get a $250-$300 sound bar with a wireless subwoofer instead. In fact, we recommend Vizio's cheaper products on this front because they've historically done well in our comparisons. Having a separate wireless subwoofer makes sound considerably better, and I don't really understand how it's SO much more inconvenient. Maybe you think it's an eyesore, but if you care about sound, maybe you can teach your eyes to adjust.
In fact, I don't even know that the world really needs the Sound Stand as a product category, even if many different companies have just started producing them. There's a slight argument to be made for its space saving-benefits. But as a New Yorker who lives in a tiny apartment I dispute the number of use cases that both require better sound and can't accommodate a sound bar. I suppose I could maybe see using the Sound Stand in a seriously constrained space, like if you have a tiny set in your kitchen or something. But even then, are you really going to buy an auxiliary sound product? The Sound Stand is definitely designed with living rooms in mind, and your living room is better off without it.

Battery & fuel cell
The world of e-mobility is moving more quickly and dynamically than ever before. The industry must accelerate the development of lithium-ion batteries in order to enable longer distances and higher performance, as well as to increase battery life and lower production costs. The solution: Increased industrial production, which allows for simultaneous cost reduction and quality improvement through economies of scale, automation, and technological innovation, as well as resource and energy efficiency. Absolute precision is required when processing material webs to produce lithium-ion batteries to ensure a safe and high-quality product. BST addresses this issue through our diverse product portfolio, such as our inspection and web guiding systems. Our inspection systems can perform a variety of measurement tasks while also communicating their measurement data to web guiding systems. The result is high-end production with optimized processes – Perfecting your Performance.
BST web guiding systems ensure that machine speeds are fully utilised and, at the same time, ensure that all daughter rolls are properly rolled up. In addition, the cut width of the individual webs can be monitored using the slurry or the web itself and can also be controlled via BST PROSolutions. This means that all deviations can be corrected before they become quality problems.
BST offers solutions to position the material web exactly to the laser cutter and thus ensures that the tabs meet the geometric requirements of the base material for coating. With the "BST Shape Measurement" inspection solution, we enable the monitoring of the geometric relationships, which can also be fed back into the process via the BST PROSolutions visualisation and operating platform.
When laminating and stacking (pouch cell), BST networks several web guiding systems with one another. This helps correct deviations from the target positions of the individual edges and ensures the precise guidance of different webs to one another. To ensure that this works to the highest degrees of precision even in the smallest of spaces, we recommend our uniquely flat FRAMEGuide web guiding system.

City of London Sinfonia make their first visit to Bradford this October for The Fruit of Silence, a musical event which explores the relationship between sound and spirituality, using the spaces and architecture of our building to help you see classical music in a completely new light.
The music of Pärt, Vasks and Tabakova evoke the transcendental, with chant-like washes of colour and spellbinding soundscapes.
We spoke to Matthew Swann, the Orchestra's CEO, about what to expect from this amazing event.
Can you give us an introduction into City of London Sinfonia and The Fruit of Silence?
Over the last few years we have really looked a lot at audience experience. Lots of people go to orchestral concerts and enjoy them, but a lot of people today are after something a little bit more. Part of the reason why we're taking this new approach is because we want to provide something that's more immersive and interactive, so people can actually be part of the performance. The audience will enjoy incredible music by Dobrinka Tabakova and Pēteris Vasks, and the music that the Bradford Cathedral Director of Music and wonderful choristers are doing. It'll be performed in a more informal way, but one that is still speaking to the growing need for ritual and spirituality.
We have seen the rise in popularity of events like immersive cinema; is this the future of big cultural events?
I think it's because so much of our entertainment, and so much of our lives, are moving online. For all the brilliance of Netflix and YouTube, it's still quite a passive experience. Yes, you have a lot more chance than you even had two or three years ago, never-mind ten or twenty, but you're still being entertained at. When people experience live acts, they're increasingly looking at how to be a part of the performance, and they want to feel that they're having an experience that goes beyond what they could just be watching on a screen. It's like pantomime: people want that back and forth experience. That's maybe a slightly flippant point but it's relevant: centuries ago, people would have experienced religious music in a much more interactive way and the audience would have really focussed in on being part of the experience rather than being passive.
What is the concept behind The Fruit of Silence?
It's music which speaks to a lot of people: music by Pēteris Vasks is becoming increasingly popular, and it's certainly covered a lot on stations like Classic FM. If you look at Spotify playlists, a lot of his music is there, and we want to give the audience a taste of that. But we also want to celebrate the beauty of our own architectural heritage; Cathedrals have a choral tradition which is hugely important, but we're going to do it in a contemporary way so we'll hopefully bring people in who would otherwise not usually experience it.
Do you have a favourite piece of music from the programme?
I think the highlight of the concert is the final piece by Dobrinka Tabakova. Up until that point, you're experiencing City of London Sinfonia musicians and the Bradford Cathedral Choir separately. There will be pop-up elements around the cathedral performing short works that lead into one another, which will encourage people to wander around. It's only at the last piece that everyone comes together, and you experience the musical weight and the big sound that you only get when an orchestra and choir come together. It's a very special moment.
What else can people enjoy from City of London Sinfonia in the future?
I hope it's not too long before we come back to Bradford or Yorkshire again. On a slightly negative note, touring is difficult and costs a lot of money, and whilst we're very keen to build up relationships and we will do another cathedrals tour, it may not be for another two or three years, which is the reality of the situation. It's taken the best part of three years to put this tour together in terms of getting funding and finding partners.
To find out more about us before the concert, we do have a very active Spotify playlist with lots of things you can experience on there.
City of London Sinfonia presents The Fruit of Silence at Bradford Cathedral on Saturday 12th October at 7pm. Join us as we follow the Orchestra and Choir around the building as part of this spectacular event. You can reserve a seat or a cushion at www.cityoflondonsinfonia.co.uk/whats-on/2518/the-fruit-of-silence-bradford/

We were having a scan for a food article when we stumbled across some pictures of cows and the beef cuts they provide (poor old cows, eh?). We were getting ready to do a comparison of the UK vs USA when, shock horror, we realised the US variety can have many combinations jammed together to make '50s Hit Singles! Consider such hits as;
Chuck Rib Shank, Rib Shank Shank, Chuck Flank Shank, Short Loin Rib Shank, Plate Round Shank, Shank Flank Shank, Shank Shank, Shank Rib, Round Flank (a hit for Elvis, surely!), Sirloin Round (another Elvis mijigger), Rib Chuck, and many, many more!
We believe this would make quite the amazing album and, eventually, Jukebox! Imagine all the beef loving maniacs stuffing their faces with steaks and beef burgers whilst they listened to those Beefy hits getting blasted out of an epic sound system. OMG, it's like a dream that's not going to come true! And not a scary dream (okay, so it is a bit frightening), but one of those dreams you wake from and wish you were still in the dream (possibly).

Muhammad Wilkerson, the Jets' $86 million defensive lineman, will finish up his underwhelming and unproductive season Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
Before then, though, he made sure to throw the Jets' training staff under the bus.
Wilkerson underwent offseason surgery to repair a broken leg he suffered in the Jets' 2015 finale, and he's dealt with lingering effects of that procedure throughout this season, specifically in a tendon along his right ankle. On Thursday, Wilkerson blamed those issues on the Jets' medical team, saying the trainers failed to develop a strategy to manage his injured leg through the first half of this year.
"We just didn't have a plan as far as myself and with the training staff. We didn't have a game plan going into the season," said Wilkerson, who signed a five-year contract extension with the Jets in July. "There should have been one, but there wasn't. … It's in the past. It's not like we can go back and change it."
Wilkerson claims the gaffe was "mutual." But the training staff is ultimately responsible for maintaining player health. And considering the Jets committed close to $90 million to Wilkerson in the offseason, it's hard to understand why the defensive lineman's well-being wasn't a priority for the organization.
"We figured out a game plan. But it was too late," Wilkerson said. "I guess I thought that it was good to go, and maybe I just needed more time, more rehab."
Despite noticeable signs that Wilkerson wasn't performing at his typical level, the Jets continued to play him for almost all of their defensive snaps.
Through the first six games of the season, Wilkerson played 372 of a possible 386 defensive plays, which comes out to close to 97%. Todd Bowles was asked repeatedly about whether he considered limiting Wilkerson's playing time, given the lineman was coming off major surgery. Bowles brushed it off.
"It hasn't affected his play yet," Bowles said in mid-October. "He's going to be sore here and there throughout, which is going to be maintenance regardless of what he does during the game. It can be 50 snaps — he'll still be sore after the game. That's just normal."
But according to Wilkerson, the workload was too much, too quickly. He wasn't ready, and it showed in his production. Wilkerson totaled just 1.5 sacks in the first six games, all of which came in the season opener. And he had 2.5 sacks in his first 13 games. The ankle pain also forced him to sit out an Oct. 23 win over the Ravens.
"It wasn't feeling the way that I thought it should have felt," Wilkerson said Thursday. "I knew I wasn't moving around on the field like I feel like I'm capable of doing."
That Wilkerson's ankle impacted his play is nothing new. He admitted as much in October. What's surprising is that, according to Wilkerson, the Jets training staff did nothing to combat the residual problems from his offseason surgery until the damage had already been done.
"It's my first major injury. It was new to me," Wilkerson said. "It happens."
Wilkerson said he hasn't lost any trust in the Jets' medical staff as a result of the situation.
"We got the greatest training staff in the league," he said.
Wilkerson doesn't need any further surgery on the ankle, and he expects to be back to full health for 2017.
"You'll see my play next year," he said.
Wilkerson has drawn the ire of many Jets fans who believe his diminished production this season is related to his big contract.
He hears the disapproval. On Thursday, he brushed off the criticism.
"People are always going to criticize me regardless. And I'm really not concerned about that. I know the player I am and am capable of being," Wilkerson said. "People in this building know who I am and what I can do. And that's that. It really doesn't matter what other people say or feel about me. I'm not going to let that get me down, because at the end of the day, they didn't go through what I went through."

It's official! Behold the Savior will be launching a new project about Biblical Archaeology. Over the next few months as the ground work is being laid in preparation for the this presentation I am looking for stories, valid and verifiable information regarding archaeology, and actual artifacts that I can include in the presentation.
This will be the first seminar that will be accompanied by a video release and we are very excited about putting this into the hands of anybody and everybody. Please check back regularly for updates and click below submit your stories, information, and prayer requests.
The Dead Sea Scrolls
Two kilometers inland from the northwest shore of the Dead Sea, a Bedouin shepherd by the name of Muhammed edh-Dhib and two others discovered scrolls in a cave. The scrolls were discovered between 1946 and 1947. The caves where the scrolls came from were rediscovered from 1949 - 1951. Though largely non-biblical in nature there were some Biblical scrolls included.
The Sumerian King List
This 4,000 year old cuneiform tablet was discovered in the early 1900s by Hermann Hilprecht. What this German American scholar discovered at the ancient site of Nippur, was a list of kings recorded in the Sumerian language. The interesting thing is that this list of kings pauses to specifially mention "the flood that swept over the earth...". Mention of a flood seems unecesary in a list of kings. This is a great argument in favor of a worldwide flood.
The Epic of Gilgamesh
Discovered in 1853 by Hormuzd Rassam at the palace of Assurbanipal at Nineveh, the Epic of Gilgamesh stands as one of the most complete extra-Biblical flood accounts and is seen as the earliest literary work.
Take a look at the amazing similarities that exist between the Epic of Gilgamesh and the flood account of Genesis:

5 Signs That Indicate That This Relationship Is Not The Right Fit For You
Relationships are meant to be simple. It's the head that complicates it. There are cues we get all the time when it feels good and when it doesn't but the head isn't ready to work with the signs. So, we let head take the lead and there starts the visit through the amusement park!
Oh, don't worry! I have visited this amusement park – some spend more time there and some are fortunate enough to make it quick because they got the perfect ice cream and decided to enjoy it slowly! So these amusement parks are huge and some people figure their way pretty well, which is why they get to the ice cream while others miss the signs completely!
I have missed some of those signs but with experience, I gained wisdom and so I want to make the 'relationship amusement park' easy for you to maneuver – show you the signs upfront – mark them in RED – they will bring clarity when to cut your losses and value your time. They will tell you this relationship's probability of working is low and then maybe its time to accept that it's not the right fit for you.
It is true that different relationships work for different people but there are some universal truths about being in a fulfilling relationship. When they are missing, we are tempted to convince ourselves that this can be worked upon – maybe yes but mostly no. So, let's get to the signs:
#1: Not on the same page with core values: We all have core values we believe in. They dictate our actions. For eg. Discipline is one of my core values and it wasn't of my ex-partner. It doesn't make someone better than the other. It just doesn't bring harmony in day to day choices. I like my days with routines and habits around a certain time. For someone else, this might not be how they function. Then even if there is a connection, things don't match. It creates unnecessary friction. The long term friction leading to other micro-situations that are unpleasant. So figure what your core values are. Cap them at 3 most important ones and see if those match with your partner's values.
#2: Find it to be difficult to be vulnerable even after a while in the relationship: Vulnerability is power. Most see it as a weakness because what if I get exposed to how I feel? What if after knowing that he/she will take advantage of me? What if I get hurt because of it? Firstly, being able to be vulnerable comes easily with high self-worth but also if we aren't truly comfortable with someone, we won't be able to be that. So if the latter is happening, then there is trouble in paradise! We need to reflect where is the gap? Self-worth issue or is this is a specific issue in this relationship? Without vulnerability, we don't allow ourselves to feel all emotions in a relationship – this won't make this a fulfilling one.
#3: It is not a solution-oriented relationship: Let's face it! We aren't with our clones!!! We will have differences that we need to share and arrive on a common ground to move forward. However, the attitude needs to be solution-oriented for both people. There needs to be a yes, I want to make this work so what's the solution? How do we make each other comfortable? How do we keep our beautiful relationship intact? I have seen clients who are struggling here because one of them is operating from this attitude and the other is constantly poking holes!
#4: Lack of intimacy: After some time in a relationship, intimacy is not there and it's fine – we hear this from friends and read it often enough to start thinking that health of a relationship isn't determined by this. Of course, it is! It's such an integral part of the human need to feel love through touch. This can be worked on but if it pertains long enough then time for a real wake-up call.
#5: The energy felt around the person is edgy: Energy introduces our relationship and us before words do! There is a calmness and feeling of home when the energy is powerful and there is constant 'what if I say this or do this' when the energy is edgy. We think this is an expectation thing but you know what? We need to be who we are loved like that. Sure, we will constantly grow and evolve but it can't be based on the hope of the relationship being something else. Energy is speaking a language – be quiet enough to listen to it.
Observe these 5 signs – with your breath, your mind and heart open- to not be in denial. This will help you maneuver the relationship amusement park more smoothly without being scarred and exhausted – the ice-cream is delicious if the flavours match us!

Ottawa, ON – The Honourable Andrew Scheer, Leader of Canada's Conservatives and of the Official Opposition, issued the following statement on Purim:
"Today, Jews in Canada and around the world celebrate Purim.
"The story of Purim captures yet another moment in history when the Jewish people faced destruction at the hands of their enemies. But as we learn from the Scroll of Esther, the story turned from one of darkness and despair, to a miraculous one of victory.
"During Purim, Jews will retell the story of Queen Esther, her Uncle Mordecai and the defeat of their enemies, which reminds us of the power of trust in God. Celebrations will include eating hamantaschen pastries, giving to charity, listening to the Megillah, dressing up in costumes, and sharing holiday meals with family and friends.
"On behalf of the Conservative Party, I wish all Jews a happy and joyful Purim celebration. Chag sameach!"
