We hit bottom (we hope) | Go Know!
Sometimes you get to a town and you know you just aren't going to hit it off. It won't be a place you remember fondly, though you may recall it in flashbacks or troubled dreams.
So we are in relatively nearby Pyrgos, which all the guidebooks say to avoid, perhaps due to its general air of grime. We had no choice.
The big hotel here is also sold out, so we are in a place that bills itself as a luxury boutique. Guess that's why the certificate of mattress disinfection is framed and so proudly displayed in our room. You don't get that kind of guarantee in ordinary boutiques, it seems.
We evidently arrived too early for our hosts – Don will elucidate – and headed out to find lunch and to visit the local acclaimed Archaeological Museum. Having carefully checked the guidebooks and website several times, Don knew it would be open till 3 PM.
Finding no restaurants on our way to the museum, we dined graciously as noted below. Having waited a respectful interval, we went back to the hotel we can now identify as Fawlty Towers, with the hope that our host Basil would have finally determined what room we would occupy. When we returned, there were lots of smiles but no action, so I surrendered to certain demands and asked to use the WC, which is on the next floor up from the lobby.
I happened to notice an open door to a room which contained our luggage. I said a prayer that we would get a room just as nice, and went back downstairs – and we're talking a looonnnggg stairway – and asked if, since our luggage had a room, we might have one too.
Five minutes of kerfluffling later, it was determined that we could be reunited. A further five minutes later, we were given our keys.
I know this might sound a bit whiny, but it seemed important to reveal that travel is not all glamorous, and sometimes downright infuriating. But, at least we know that our mattress has been disinfected.
If it weren't so hot and if we hadn't already endured a three-hour trip to this town from Patras, our experience at this so-called luxury boutique hotel might have been humorous. It started with a taxi driver who was somewhat startled that we were not staying at the number one hotel in town. After squinting in disbelief at the name of our hotel for several moments, he agree to take us. The ride here was through some of the worst slums we have seen in Greece. I'm sure there are other slums like this, but we just haven't seen them.
We were deposited on the steps of the "luxury boutique hotel" but couldn't find the entrance. The taxi driver pointed us to an unmarked door. Next to the door was a tiny doorbell with the name discreetly labelled. Suddenly the door was flung open by a short and more frantically animated version of Basil (John Cleese) of Fawlty Towers fame. First, he tried to pick up our major piece of luggage and wanted to know if we had rocks in it. That's a good question that I have tried to pose to Jo since I know I have trimmed down what I have packed to near bare threads of two extra shirts and one extra pair of pants. Since we were still then on good terms with our Basil of the so-called boutique hotel, I joked that we picked up a few relics we found on the Acropolis. I think he believed me.
Many other minutes passed with more computer clicking and staff directives. Finally, he allowed one piece of luggage — the one with the rocks — to be placed in a tiny elevator and motioned that we should follow him upstairs. Jo, using a new knee as an excuse, asked to use the elevator. This was reluctantly allowed. And we all moved up one flight of stairs to a room.
The room was ready for occupation, but when he showed us the bathroom, which only included a large bathtub and no shower, we said we wanted a shower, and a bathtub wouldn't work for us. This threw Basil into a conniption. He explained that the hotel was fully booked for the night and all the rooms would have to be reassigned and that could take a long time. We said fine and that we would come back later because we wanted to go to the museum before it closed at 3 pm. Then, he pointed to a window shelf in the hall and told us to put our luggage up there out of the way. The uniformed cleaning ladies were scurrying about, all in a panic, with Basil setting the tone.
Then, after we returned to the reception area downstairs we made the mistake of asking for a map and directions to the museum. This was a convoluted affair and Basil, using far too many words and tortured explanations, ended up directing us through slum-like side streets when, we found out later, the main drag and pedestrian walking area that could have gotten us there were one block away in another direction. If I hadn't left the Valium in one of the bags left on the window sill on the second floor, I would have popped one right then.
After finding out that the museum was closed on Monday, we were next defeated by the area immediately in front of the museum as a place to find something to eat. We happened into a souvlaki joint and we each had an indifferent pork souvlaki and a couple of Diet Cokes. $10.
Walking back to Fawlty Towers, we ventured two blocks in a different direction and found a lovely square — which was directly behind the museum — with lots of nice-looking cafes. Basil failed to mention this section of town and its proximity to the museum and to the hotel itself. Maybe he doesn't see the difference between the dicey-looking slum streets and the more civilized-seeming cafe-lined pedestrian walkways. I'm not going to ask him.
When we returned, we started round two of the battle with Basil until finally we were permitted to enter the room where our luggage had already taken up residence and to turn on the air conditioning. We're resting to prepare for our trip to Olympia tomorrow with some trepidation about encountering a motorcycle rally there.
What an experience. Hope you had a good night's sleep and that the motor bikes set off home as you arrive. Do you think the Gods were testing you with the bus and this episode? Sounds a bit like the Clashing Rocks equivalent!!!! All we can see is must from our hotel window. Can't see the other side of the lake, but the hotel owner is kindly taking us to see their restored Lemonade, the citrus conservatory which allows these trees to produce fruit this far north. Once grown commercial until reunification, when Sicily outsmarted them. Then home this afternoon. Wish we were staying longer.
Yes, there was indeed a motorbike rally in Olympia. Doesn't fit, does it? We didn't let it get in our way, and managed to navigate around them. Sorry you didn't have a lot of sun – or at least that's what it sounds like. Since you have so many of these small jewels of holidays, I refuse to feel sorry for you, sister dear.

Just one year after Marisa Ruiz of Madrid-based Lalzada put the finishing touches on a long-time client's DC residence, a two-alarm fire ravaged the house. Thankfully, no one was hurt; the owners and their five children were on holiday in their native Spain when they learned that their Spring Valley home and its contents were in ruins.
"It looked like old Civil War pictures of Richmond after the flames. Only the outside walls were left standing," recalls architect Dwight McNeill, who was hired to recreate the grandeur of the original European-style country house, built in 1996.
She and her team—who designed the clients' four other homes, all located in Spain—collaborated closely with McNeill and architect Dean Cretsinger throughout the design phase. The new plan added a third floor to the home, as well as an elevator, a secondary staircase and a butler's pantry near the kitchen. Unlike the former, traditional kitchen, the new one would be open, sleek and modern—designed with the homeowners' close friend, chef José Andrés. The lower level would see a new wine cellar and movie room, while an ambitious landscaping scheme would create more space for al fresco entertaining.
From Italian travertine tile in the foyer to Spanish oak floors and bespoke millwork, Ruiz and her team selected top-quality materials to achieve a refined, elegant look. Most of the furniture was designed by Lalzada and fabricated in Spain by artisans—including metal workers, upholsterers and woodworkers—who frequently collaborate with the firm.
Today, the 11,000-square-foot residence suits the lifestyle of a busy family with kids ranging from seven to 16. "The house is always full," says Ruiz. The layout is ideal for large parties, with the expansive foyer leading into the living, dining and family rooms.
The kitchen is designed to perform on all cylinders. And from a cooking standpoint, it would be the envy of any home chef—even one with José Andrés on speed dial. White Poggenpohl cabinetry is organized around a large central island and a massive custom hood. With input from the chef, the owners selected cooking appliances that run the gamut from gas, teppanyaki, wok and induction burners to traditional and steam/microwave ovens.
The second floor houses the master suite and two guest suites, along with a casual family room for the kids. But the third floor is the younger set's domain, where new bedrooms were designed with custom furniture and novel accents—from tufted panels that give the teenage daughters' room a hip vibe to a "wall" of stretched bungee cords in the younger girls' room. The middle son's room is covered in wallpaper depicting vintage maps of the U.S.

HARARE - Despite the fact that millions of Zimbabweans are trapped in abject poverty, Zanu PF is going on a spending spree ahead of the 2018 polls to ensure its campaign machinery is well-oiled to face a tricky opposition that appears likely to rally behind one presidential candidate to face President Robert Mugabe.
The Daily News can report that the ruling party will be spending big on campaign material, advertising and promotions, as well as on vehicles to get its officials to connect with the grassroots, especially in its rural strongholds.
Much of the budget would be directed towards vehicles, amid indications that 210 Ford Fiestas with a retail value of about $25 000 each would be allocated to those who would have won in the primary elections and given the green light to stand on the party's ticket.
The party is also considering buying a new fleet for its provincial chairpersons and other vehicles for party districts which act as the bridge to party wards and cells.
Zimbabwe has 10 administrative provinces and 59 districts.
Assuming that the party decides to go for all-terrain Ford Rangers for the 59 districts and 10 provinces, it would have to part with at least $3 million.
Combine that with the vehicles for the aspiring Members of Parliament, Zanu PF could easily fork out about $8 million on vehicles alone.
Earlier this year, the ruling party splurged almost $60 million on vehicles and buses, which are being used to mobilise the masses to attend its rallies.
Zanu PF's secretary for transport, welfare and communication Oppah Muchinguri confirmed to the Daily News that the vehicles will be bought but refused to divulge at what cost, saying the revolutionary party does not discuss its plans in the media.
"Since when did we start sharing what we are doing with the media to say we are buying cars for so and so? Besides, we have not had our primary elections so it does not make sense to be giving MPs cars now because they have to win internal elections first," she said.
"What I know, however, is that we last replenished our fleet in 2007 and it is those cars that are in a deplorable state now hence we are seeking to replace them for our provinces and districts," said Muchinguri.
The Daily News is, however, reliably informed that Zanu PF will splash millions on Ford Fiestas for its aspiring lawmakers, which are lowly-priced than the Ford Everests acquired ahead of the 2013 polls.
Well-placed Zanu PF insiders told the Daily News that the party would soon take delivery of the 210 new vehicles for use in campaigns for the 2018 elections.
Among the new fleet are Ford Fiestas — similar to the ones which were recently purchased for the police — and top-of-the-range Ford Rangers and buses.
On average, a standard Ford Ranger single cab starts at about $40 000.
Critics are, however, questioning the source of funding for the election-related projects amid fears that Zanu PF could be engaged in foggy back-to-back deals that could involve conflating the party's financial needs with those of government.
This could involve arrangements whereby investors gaining access into the resource sector might be coerced into funding specific party projects as a precondition to get the necessary approvals.
It is known that the party has not been getting much from its ordinary membership as well as from its investments due to the harsh economic environment in which the majority of Zimbabweans are living on less than $1 per day.
Most of the companies in which Zanu PF is invested in are bellies up and face the risk of closure, while a number of the party's officials are also fighting sequestration due to mounting debts.
All these difficulties have seen the party's coffers running dry to the point where Zanu PF is failing to pay its workers and service its debts.
Coming at a time when long-suffering Zimbabweans are struggling to make ends meet, opposition parties have accused Zanu PF of being insensitive to the plight of the masses.
The secretary for finance and economic affairs for the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Vince Musewe, said it could be that the ruling party might have been behind the missing $15 billion from diamonds, otherwise how else could one explain the source of funding.
"We can only speculate that the missing $15 billion is now coming in handy. We are dealing with a kleptocracy that can never imagine itself out of power. One fine day the chickens will come home to roost. The economy is bleeding each day; no amount of cars in the streets will change that," Musewe said.
PDP spokesperson Jacob Mafume weighed in saying Zanu PF was abusing foreign currency to prepare for 2018 elections.
"The foreign currency is being abused by Zanu PF to oil their machine ahead of 2018 elections.
Only last year, the party spent almost $60 million on a new fleet of cars, trucks and buses, for party businesses.
Apart from buying cars for its parliamentary candidates and party structures — the ruling party is also under pressure from traditional leaders to buy them cars.
A fortnight ago, traditional leaders told the Daily News that they were demanding cars.
Considering that the country is hurtling towards crunch elections in 2018, it is likely that the chiefs will have brand new cars ahead of other urgent national needs.
MDC spokesperson Obert Gutu said the ruling party doesn't care about people's plight.
"The Zanu PF regime has never really cared about the well-being of the generality of the people. Zanu PF has always been a commandist and fascist organisation that believes in retaining power at whatever cost," Gutu said.
"This is the main reason why State resources are being abused for the purposes of purchasing campaign motor vehicles for every Zanu PF 2018 parliamentary candidate.

"They spent money like it's about to get out of fashion. In fact, Zimbabwe will be permanently located in the miserable pool of failed States if the incredible happens and Zanu PF somehow manages to win next year's elections," said Gutu.

Economic Prosperity or a Clean Environment? Why Not Both?
In the recent midterms, voters across the country rejected ballot initiatives that would have imposed punishing restrictions on oil and natural gas producers.
Washingtonians squashed a proposed carbon tax. Coloradans voted down a de facto ban on fracking throughout most of the state. And Arizonans rejected a proposition that would have mandated huge increases in renewable energy production.
By defeating these ballot initiatives, voters sent a message to their political leaders. They don't want to choose between a clean planet and abundant, affordable energy. They want both. And thanks to recent advances in drilling technologies, they can get their wish.
Around the turn of the century, energy firms developed new technologies empowering them to tap into huge underground oil and natural gas deposits that were previously inaccessible. Fracking, horizontal drilling, and other innovative drilling techniques have enabled a breathtaking expansion of domestic energy production.
Since 1990, U.S. natural gas output has spiked 50 percent. Back in 2009, we surpassed Russia as the world's leading natural gas producer. And just this September, we unseated Russia to become the top oil producer, pumping out 11 million barrels a day — nearly double the daily total just two decades ago.
This expansion has generated immense economic rewards. Today, oil and gas support over 10 million jobs. And the industry annually adds $1.3 trillion to the national economy.
We're also well on our way to achieving what was once dismissed as a pipedream: total energy independence. Within just a few years, America will no longer heavily rely on foreign energy imports, including those from rogue regimes that have often constricted supply for political gain.
The central gospel of the modern environmentalist movement contends that this energy renaissance must be having catastrophic effects on the planet. Rapacious fossil fuel behemoths may make us rich, but they only do so by despoiling the natural world, accelerating climate change, and pumping toxic chemicals into the water and soil. Energy wealth and environmental preservation are mutually exclusive goals. Or so they claim.
This gospel is belied by the fact that the United States has become the world leader in carbon emissions reductions. America's energy renaissance is helping, not harming, the environment.
Here's why. The surge in natural gas production has caused prices to plummet, making the fuel a cheap substitute for coal in electricity production. Many power plants have switched over from coal to gas.
Natural gas produces about 50 percent less carbon dioxide emissions than coal. Power plants' mass migration to natural gas has pushed electricity-related carbon dioxide emissions into a freefall; they've dropped over 19 percent since 2011.
As a result, overall emissions have nosedived. Last year, total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions fell nearly 3 percent, marking the third consecutive year that carbon dioxide emissions declined. The United States has posted the world's largest annual drop in carbon dioxide emissions nine times this century.
America is enjoying an unprecedented oil and gas boom. Simultaneously, carbon dioxide emissions have fallen to a 25-year low. By the standard environmentalist logic, this is impossible. American energy dominance must come at the expense of the environment.
But it clearly doesn't. Fortunately, voters recognized they can have abundant, cheap energy, a thriving economy, and a clean environment. There's no need to choose only one.

Painting Of Two Soham Men Who Helped Save The Town From A Rail Disaster Is Discovered
Published: 9:16 AM August 11, 2009 Updated: 11:24 AM November 1, 2020

A PAINTING depicting the heroism of three men - two of whom were from Soham - is now on display at the March museum after it was discovered in Gloucestershire.
The painting is one of a number of items concerned with the Soham rail crash which has been brought back to March by museum officers to be added to the existing display of mementoes.
On June 2 1944, train driver Benjamin Gimbert, from March, and fireman James Nightall, from Littleport, saved Soham from possible disaster by detaching a burning ammunition wagon from the other 51 wagons in the train.
Mr Nightall and Frank Bridges, the Soham signalman, were killed but Mr Gimbert survived with serious injuries. The two crewmen were awarded the George Cross for their actions.
In 1984 Mr Gimbert's medals were sold at Sotherby's. London accountant Christopher Clayton was the successful bidder and donated the medals back to the town.
Richard Munns, vice-chairman of March and District Museum Society, said: "Recently, March Museum was offered some scrap books which were given to the purchaser of a chest of drawers from a house that was up for sale. They were found to contain records kept by Mr Clayton of the purchase of the medals and their subsequent return to March.
"When these items were given to the museum, it was mentioned that there was a painting 'something to do with the event', under a friend's bed in Drybrook, Gloucestershire."
Museum officers travelled to Gloucestershire to collect the painting, along with an illuminated address which was given to Mr Gimbert by March Urban District Council when a plaque was unveiled in the council chamber in 1945.
The painting, by JP Honeywell of Charlton Kings, Cheltenham, shows engine 7337 with the driver, fireman and the signalman carrying a fire bucket, as the burning wagon is being drawn away from the remainder of the train.
It has been used on the front cover of a book, But For Such Men As These by Anthony Day, which recounted the events of June 2 1944.

Definition - What does Parivrtta Janu Sirsasana mean?
Parivrtta janu sirsasana is a revolved forward bending posture. It is a variation on the asymmetrical forward bend, janu sirsasana. It is considered a calming and soothing asana with significant benefits for the mind as well as the body. It also works to stimulate the chakras, improving the flow of prana.
To perform this asana, the yogi assumes a wide-legged seated position, then draws the left leg in so the foot rests on the inner thigh of the extended right leg. The left arm rests on top of the leg while the other arm reaches over to grab the foot.
The name for this asana comes from the Sanskrit parivrtta, meaning "revolved," janu, meaning "knee," sirsa, meaning "head," and asana, meaning "pose." The English name for this asana is revolved head-to-knee pose.
Parivrtta janu sirsasana is often included toward the end of a yoga class when the body is open and the mind can absorb all the benefits of its relaxing and stimulating stretch.
It is considered therapeutic for a wide range of conditions, including anxiety, depression, headaches and fatigue. Some people also find it relieves insomnia.
As a powerful hip and groin opener, parivrtta janu sirsasana works to balance and activate the svadisthana (spleen or sacral) chakra, which is connected with the element of water. This is thought to cultivate both freedom of movement and self-nurturing qualities. The twisting element of the posture also stimulates the manipura (solar plexus or navel) chakra.

Link's Awakening: Critical Consensus
Faithful modern-day remake of original Game Boy game charms reviewers despite underwhelming dungeon creator, frame rate issues
Nintendo's newest Zelda title isn't terribly new at all, as The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening for the Switch is a remake of the 1993 Game Boy title. While reviewers of the new remake have differing degrees of familiarity with the original release, they are overwhelmingly in agreement that it is an enjoyable and charming game.
GameSpot's Peter Brown said "the renewed presentation is easily the star of the show" in his 8 out of 10 review for GameSpot, praising the visual overhaul that gives all the game's denizens a glossy, rounded look.
"Having been transformed from little pixelated people to shiny, cartoony toys come to life, everyone in Link's Awakening brings newfound energy," Brown said. "It's equally true for monsters and bad guys as well. Game Boy games have retro appeal, but the remake casts aside ancient aesthetics for something entirely different that works on its own terms."
Vice's Patrick Klepek agreed in his unscored review, saying, "The game's tilt shift aesthetic, complete with blurring along the screen's edges, makes the world look and feel appropriately toy-like, as if you could just place your fingers onto the screen and pluck things out. It's absolutely gorgeous."
"For a game so focused on capturing scenes filled with joy and character, the performance issues frequently took me out of the illusion"
Russ Frushtick
However, Klepek said that visual experience was dampened by "frustrating" frame rate issues, something he said he isn't particularly sensitive to in games.
"Even when Link is doing nothing more than walking from one screen to the next, lacking enormous enemies or taxing explosions that might understandably cause the underpowered Switch to buckle, Link's Awakening rarely achieves the smoothness its visuals demand," Klepek said.
Polygon's Russ Frushtick echoed that sentiment in an unscored review, saying, "For a game so focused on capturing scenes filled with joy and character, the performance issues frequently took me out of the illusion. They never made the game unplayable, but they definitely hindered the visual experience."
But there's more to games than graphics, and reviewers largely praised Link's Awakening's gameplay as well. Much of the game is exceedingly faithful to the original in terms of map layouts, characters, and puzzles, but there were some quality-of-life improvements made. For example, the Game Boy had just two action buttons, so the Switch's comparative cornucopia of inputs is used to make juggling equipment and other tasks easier.
Link's Awakening has an all-new visual style and (almost) all-old gameplay
Frushtick said the adherence to the original's action makes the new Link's Awakening an ideal introduction to the franchise.
"The first two Zelda games on NES were broad, directionless, and incredibly difficult for their time," Frushtick said. "Link's Awakening is more guided and, frankly, easier... if you're looking for a way to introduce Zelda to someone under the age of 10, it's a great thing. But for adults, the game may feel a bit lacking compared to the complex adventures of Breath of the Wild and A Link Between Worlds."
Brown noted in his review that the game seems to be intentional in taking a different path than the more epic, mainline Zelda titles, often to its benefit.
"It works, instead, as a fanciful side story, and it ultimately stands out for its playful attitude and moments of bittersweet melancholy."
"All these years later, this version is exactly what I had hoped for"
Much of that attitude and melancholy is delivered through the colorful inhabitants of the mysterious Koholint Island, where Link spends most of the game marooned.
"Their identities and stories aren't all that deep, but your interactions and exchanges help shape the identity of the locale and brighten up your time spent outside of dark and dreary dungeons," Brown said.
The result is exactly what Eurogamer's Tom Phillips wanted, as could be guessed from the 'Essential' tag he bestowed upon the game.
"All these years later, this version is exactly what I had hoped for - a chance to play through a modern recreation of Koholint's original design, laid out exactly as it was and without any of its oddball charm being lost on the way," Phillips said. "It's an astonishing balancing act to see the remake's choice of new visual style - tactile terracotta buildings and model-like figures cast against bokeh-drenched backgrounds - so accurately preserve the original's quirks."
That's not to say Phillips -- or any of the reviewers who pulled out their site's top-end plaudits for the game -- loved everything they saw in Link's Awakening. One of the game's few new features, a build-your-own dungeon feature, left reviewers almost uniformly unimpressed.
IGN's Joe Skrebels called it "a lovely idea" in a 9.4 out of 10 review, but was not impressed by its lack of options and limited ability to share created dungeons (they can only be transferred by loading them onto an amiibo for someone else to copy it from).
"It's a curiosity," Skrebels said, "but won't be a compulsion."
USgamer's Nadia Oxford agreed in her 5 out of 5 review, saying, "Assembling dungeons is a fun diversion, but don't expect to make anything as complicated as Koholint's own caverns. The whole endeavor plays suspiciously like a tutorial for a Zelda Maker, which makes me more certain than ever that we'll eventually be designing our own dungeons in a dedicated Maker game."
While each reviewer summarized their write-up in slightly different ways, the overriding sentiment was largely the same.
"The remake's charming graphics, epic soundtrack, and hugely welcome improvements to its control scheme... make it well worth Nintendo's asking price. It's a great game bestowed with great improvements," Oxford said in her conclusion. "It is, in a word, dreamy."

Stalwart friends Piggie and Gerald the elephant push the metafictive envelope in a big way when they realize that "someone is looking at us." Is it a monster? worries Gerald. "No," replies the squinting Piggie. "It is... / a reader! / A reader is reading us!" How? wonders Gerald. Piggie drapes herself on a word bubble to demonstrate: "We are in a book!" "THAT IS SO COOL!" Joy leads to a little bit of clever practical joking-Piggie figures out how to make the readers say "banana" out loud, and hilarity ensues-which gives way to existential angst: "The book ends?!" exclaims an appalled Gerald. Emergent readers just beginning to grapple one-on-one with the rules of the printed codex will find the friends' antics both funny and provocative: Just who is in control here, anyway? As always, Willems displays his customary control of both body language and pacing even as he challenges his readers to engage with his characters and the physicality of their book. The friends' solution to the book's imminent end? "Hello. Will you please read us again?" You bet. Kirkus"
After several rousing adventures, it's probably about time that Elephant (aka Gerald) and Piggie start questioning the facts of their existence-namely, that they are characters in a book, and that books end. Not to worry-they don't get all the way to the crisis-y part of such a postmodern existential dilemma; instead, being Elephant and Piggie, they explore the mystery and wonder of having an audience. Though Gerald is freaked when he realizes someone is looking at them, Piggie fearlessly approaches the book's horizon to see who it is; she discovers not only that it's a reader but also that she and Gerald can make the reader say whatever they want just by putting the text in a speech bubble. Piggie's making a reader say "banana" is all that's needed to send the friends into paroxysms of gasping laughter, until Piggie points out that Gerald may want a turn before the book ends. Gerald once again panics, and Piggie once again gathers information and formulates an idea that will save them. As always, Willems' finger is firmly on the pulse of today's kids and their culture, as he plays with the joyful, performative aspects of seeking and sustaining attention, with Gerald particularly antic in his exuberant reactions to each new development. It's a good thing that Willems chooses to place his characters on flat white backgrounds and limit the color palette to their signal pink and grey, linking them to more muted shades of those colors in their speech bubbles, since the physical comedy of their actions would be too chaotic otherwise. Gerald and piggy are so delirious with the possibility of sly manipulation of their readers, not to mention so open with their need (Gerald's embodied hysteria over finding out that the book will end closes with the small fonted, droopy-postured plea "I just want to be read" that even the smallest culture-mulchers will know how to intone). That the readers will be happy to play along-heck, who ever needed a fourth wall anyway? BCCB"
Make room for another satisfying episode in the escapades of lovable Elephant (aka Gerald) and Piggie. This time the best buddies star in a witty metafictional romp replete with visual gags, such as Piggie hanging from a speech bubble and Elephant blocking the author's name on the title page. Willems revs up the fun when the friends realize that someone is watching. Who can it be? Cautious Gerald asks, "A monster?" while savvy Piggie answers, "No. It is...a reader! A reader is reading us!" Mirth ensues as the delightful creatures comprehend a newfound power: "If the reader reads out loud," they can make the reader say words. Piggie decides upon "Banana" and Gerald's sidesplitting laughter proves contagious for all involved. But, when Gerald learns that books end, with Piggie demonstrating by turning the bottom corner of the page to see how many are left, he shouts, "This book is going too fast! I have more to give!" Not to worry the ever-resourceful Piggie has Gerald ask, "Will you please read us again?" Beginning readers will grant Gerald's request, while grown-ups will marvel at Willems's extraordinary ability to animate his personality-packed gray and pink characters with the widest range of emotions, all drawn with the simplest of line. SLJ"
In their latest pairing, Elephant and Piggie are finally ready to get meta. Realizing that their trademark blank background is, in fact, a page, the duo has a blast convincing the reader to say funny things out loud-until Piggie mentions that the book will soon end. Cue Elephant's existential crisis: "WHEN WILL THE BOOK END!?!" From there on, it's a cute-but never too heady-play on the physical object that the reader is holding, including a bit where Piggie appears to flip the pages forward to get a sense of how much time they have left. Willems' satisfying (if self-serving) solution? Read it again! Booklist"

I am creating two apps that need to talk to each other which will on the same PC, one using BCB5 and one using BCBXE5. Thought I would use the FastNet UDP control as I have used it in BCB5 many times without issues. In BCB5 it's real easy to send and receive simple strings in XE5 not so much. I just spent most of the night on Google trying to figure out exactly how to receive a string with TIdUDPSocket in XE5 and now just as confused as ever.
The OnDataReceived event in the BCB5 version doesn't work the same way in the the XE5 version and they have added a LocalHost property that I have no idea what to set to. The computer will not be connected to a network and won't be able to guarantee it will even be assigned a local IP address.
Anyone have a simple example of detecting when and retrieving a string with the TIdUDPSocket control in XE5?
What settings for ports and hosts would work with both apps running on the same computer?
Is there a better (easier) way to have two apps running on the same computer to communicate with each other?

There is no TIdUDPSocket component. Indy has TIdUDPClient and TIdUDPServer components instead. The deprecated Borland Kylix-era Socket components have a TUDPSocket component. Which are you really using?

What LocalHost property are you referring to? There is no LocalHost property in any Indy components. Are you maybe using the Kylix-era UDP component instead?

BReeves wrote: Anyone have a simple example of detecting when and retrieving a string with the TIdUDPSocket control in XE5?
Not without first establishing exactly which component you are really using. Each component is used differently.
BReeves wrote: What settings for ports and hosts would work with both apps running on the same computer?
Any unused port on 127.0.0.1.
BReeves wrote: Is there a better (easier) way to have two apps running on the same computer to communicate with each other?
There are MANY different ways. Named pipes, mailslots, COM, RPC, sockets, window messages, shared memory. Each has its share of advantages and disadvantages. Use whatever suits your needs.
The XE control is TUpdSocket found under the Internet tab, sorry if I misnamed it.
Kinda irrelevant now as I have decided to use Mail Slots to communicate between the two applications. Had forgotten about a project I did several years ago in which I used Mail Slots and was able to port that code over to XE5 which solved the problem.
Sorry for taking up your time to chase my ghost.
BReeves wrote: The XE control is TUpdSocket found under the Internet tab, sorry if I misnamed it.
The components in the Web.Win.Sockets unit have been deprecated for a long time, and were finally removed in XE6. You really shouldn't be using them at all. Even in earlier versions before they were removed, they were not very good components to use. You should use the Indy components instead, if not another component suite, like ICS or Synapse.

As ofit may be time to officially declare privacy dead. With the invention of the internet, cellular phones, and various social media platforms, getting a hold of someone's information is seemingly easier than ever. It may not be fair, but keeping private e-mails or images on one's computer or cell phone is a risky proposition these days. Sadly, the world is full of people who are looking to exploit someone's private content for profit or in some cases simply Jane Slater Nude own amusement.
That being said, there is no excuse for stealing someone's intimate photos of themselves and distributing them to the world. However, there are a few athletes out there who may have sent some pics in which the receiving party didn't necessarily appreciate.
In this piece, we will explore the leaked photo phenomenon that has become so prevalent in pop culture today. To this end, we will take a look at 15 athletes who had their private photos leaked. As you will see, many of these athletes are clearly victims who were wronged.

Solo has also received her fair share of negative publicity stemming from allegations that she was involved in a domestic dispute with her husband, former NFL tight end Jerramy Stevens. She was even suspended by the league for calling Sweden's soccer team "a bunch of cowards" after they eliminated the United States from the Olympic games back in And inthere was the infamous iCloud celebrity photo leak involving Solo and several other big name celebrities.

The Tigers star is also currently engaged to supermodel Kate Upton. The leaks featured nude images of the celebrity couple together.

As of , it may be time to officially declare privacy dead. With the invention of the internet, cellular phones, and various social media platforms, getting a hold of someone's information is seemingly easier than ever. It may not be fair, but keeping private e-mails or images on one's computer or cell phone is a risky proposition these days. Sadly, the world is full of people who are looking to exploit someone's private content for profit or in some cases simply their own amusement. That being said, there is no excuse for stealing someone's intimate photos of themselves and distributing them to the world. However, there are a few athletes out there who may have sent some pics in which the receiving party didn't necessarily appreciate. In this piece, we will explore the leaked photo phenomenon that has become so prevalent in pop culture today.

Follicular enlargement, peg-shaped incisors and canine-driven resorption
Bulletin #60 November 2016
Introducing the problem
The 9 year old female patient came to see me initially in April 2014 and was accompanied by her mother, who complained of the poor appearance of her anterior dental display. The anterior teeth were widely spaced, due in part to two newly-erupting peg-shaped maxillary lateral incisors and a shift of 2-3 millimeters of the maxillary dental midline. Her dentition comprised four permanent molars, four maxillary and four mandibular incisors, but also included all four second and the right maxillary primary molars. The mandibular permanent canines were just erupting. From the dental history, it was learned that the other 3 deciduous first molars had earlier been extracted due to caries, while all four deciduous canines had shed spontaneously.
There was a mild degree of crowding in the mandibular dentition. The overjet and overbite were 4-5mms and the two maxillary canines were still unerupted, although the right canine could be palpated on the palatal side of the incisors. Mother also produced a panoramic radiograph that had been taken in November 2013, which was prior to the eruption of the left lateral incisor (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1. Panoramic radiograph of November 2013. Note the normal location of the unerupted maxillary canines and the relation between the crown tip of the right canine with the developing apex of the right lateral incisor.
In my initial discussion with mother at that first visit, I explained the necessity for future orthodontic treatment and that there would likely be a problem with the canine that might require surgery. Based on the panoramic view taken only 4-5 months earlier, I advised that the last remaining deciduous first molar be extracted with the intention of facilitating rapid eruption of the first premolar and, thereby, permitting the right canine to undergo some degree of spontaneous positional improvement. I then requested that I see the child again in the Spring of 2015 with a new panoramic film to be taken at that time, in order to re-evaluate the dental development and positional changes that will have occurred.
What were the factors that were taken into account to justify this decision?
Due to early shedding of the deciduous canines and the extraction of 3 of the deciduous first molars, I viewed the extraction of the 4th primary first molar to be the realization of a prophylactic protocol proposed by Alessandri Bonetti and co-workers.1 This protocol involves the prophylactic extraction of the maxillary deciduous canines and first primary molars and has been shown to improve the fortunes of potentially impacting maxillary canines and to result in their spontaneous eruption in a large proportion of the cases.
The child's dental age was assessed at 8½ -9 years, with open apices in the permanent molars and incisors and with premolar roots less than ¼ developed. Together with the fact of so many unerupted teeth, actively initiating orthodontic mechanotherapy was contraindicated. Nevertheless, the crown-to-apex orientation of the right lateral incisor was not apically convergent with the central incisors, as would be expected at this age and the developing apex appeared to be in close proximity to the unerupted and normally-located right canine in the mesiodistal plane. On the left side, the unerupted and peg-shaped lateral incisor shows a more normal orientation, characteristic of this early stage.2 It may be argued that a proactive environmental alteration, in the form of re- orientation (mesial over-uprighting) of the right lateral incisor root3 would improve the chances for normal eruption of the right canine. This protocol was well illustrated in a lecture I presented at the AAO Annual Session earlier this year,4 although its efficacy has yet to be tested in a large patient sample.
Follow-up of the case
Fig. 2. Panoramic radiograph of September 2015. Note the presence of an enlarged follicle surrounding the right canine and the enlargement of the image of the canine crown and its superimposition on the root of the peg-shaped lateral incisor.
The parents of this child work full time and, because of the distance between their home and my office, they decided to see another orthodontist locally and a new panoramic film was commissioned in September 2015 (Fig. 2). This showed the presence of an enlarged follicle surrounding the crown of the unerupted maxillary right canine but some progress in the descent of both canines, which showed mild overlap of the lateral incisor root on the left side and complete overlap on the right side.
The projected image of the crown of a tooth in a panoramic film may be enlarged, depending on the distance of the tooth from the film. The projected image of the crown of the right canine was much enlarged and, by direct mesio-distal measurement on the film, appeared to be 19% wider than that of the adjacent central incisor. This is despite that, in reality, the incisor has the larger mesiodistal width. For the left side, the canine measured 15% larger than its adjacent central incisor. In this film, the right canine may be seen to superimpose on the mid-section of the root of the central and lateral incisors, while the left canine is in the coronal zone of the incisor roots. At these levels, an enlargement of the canine crown measurement of 15% or more above that of the central incisor determines that both canine are palatally displaced.5, 6
Through the partially radiolucent image of the canine crowns on the September 2015 panoramic view, the clear and undisturbed 2D outline of the roots of the superimposed lateral incisors may be clearly seen, along their full length (Fig. 2). There is no indication of resorption of these roots. However, since the canines were palatal, considerable resorption of the palatal side of the incisor root could conceivably have occurred before its extension interproximally could alter the root shape, to make it diagnosable on this or any other planar film.

Fig. 4. Panoramic view of August 2016. Note the autonomously erupted left maxillary canine and the impaction of the right canine. The root of the right lateral incisor has largely disappeared, although the reader may be excused for considering the right lateral incisor to be unaffected.
The patient was only seen by the orthodontist 11 months later, in August 2016, when a single periapical radiograph revealed severe resorption of the right lateral incisor, with the disappearance of 90% of its root (Fig. 3). A new panoramic film performed at the same time (Fig. 4) confirmed this and also showed the left canine to have autonomously reached its assigned place in the dental arch and to have fully erupted. Its immediate incisor neighbor showed good and apparently healthy, completed root development. On the right side, the canine remained impacted and had migrated further down and mesially to overlap the distal side of the central incisor root. There was only the faintest outline of root visible where the canine crown was superimposed on the lateral incisor.

Realizing the seriousness of the condition and its influence on the prognosis of the right lateral incisor tooth, the parents decided to consult me once more. Having seen the new periapical and panoramic films, I considered it essential to assess the degree of resorption that the lateral incisor had undergone, in order to evaluate whether this tooth was savable, since the overall malocclusion was typically a non-extraction case (Fig. 5).
New findings of the CBCT imaging
In general, it is true to say that accurate and detailed interpretation of the CBCT can best be derived through slices made in the 3 planes of space, with cross-sectional, axial and coronal cuts. These are usually performed as a series of parallel slides at millimeter intervals or less. They may also be made longitudinally at various angles to these planes, although they are then more difficult to interpret. Creating 3D pictures or movie video clips are an excellent bonus, to complete the depiction of the location and orientation of the impacted tooth in relation to its neighbors and, as in this case, will show any resorption craters in full and easily understandable detail.

Fig. 6b. A close-up slightly angulated cross-sectional view of the same tooth showing the complete severance of the incisor root, leaving the sequestered apex unharmed.
Fig. 7. A series of cross-sectional CBCT slices at 0.5mm increments, showing the severity of the resorption of the left lateral incisor. This could not be diagnosed from the 2D panoramic view which was taken only 1 month earlier.
Fig. 8. A 12 slide series of axial cuts performed with 0.5mm increments shows the differing patterns and severities of resorption of the two lateral incisors (yellow arrows), the gradual appearance of the canine in the higher cuts (green arrows) and the enlarged dental follicle (pink arrows).
The selected images shown here (Figs. 6-8) illustrate how the continued progress of the impacted canine has traversed the middle of the root of the lateral incisor, leaving the crown almost completely severed from its residual and unaffected apex. At the same time, however, it also shows an extensive resorption crater located on the lingual aspect of the left lateral incisor (Fig. 7), which was clearly the result of the final eruptive throes of the left canine prior to its successful autonomous eruption. Referring back to the August 2016 panoramic film, a careful re-examination of the image of the left lateral incisor, with the benefit of 20-20 hindsight, reveals a minor radiolucency in the distal and cervical area of the tooth at its cemento-enamel junction, which had been earlier overlooked.

At the very end of the clip, the lesion on the palatal side of the left lateral incisor comes into view.

With the video clips herewith (Figs. 9, 10), we will now have a much clearer picture of the status of the maxillary anterior dentition vis-à-vis the degree of resorption of the two lateral incisors and their prognoses, the palatal location of the impacted maxillary right canine and the inadequacy of space for its alignment.
Could this have been predicted?
According to a study performed in Sweden almost 30 years ago,7 the presence of an enlarged follicle around the crown of an impacted tooth is not an etiologic factor in resorption of incisor roots. Furthermore, studies performed by our group in Israel have shown that small and peg-shaped lateral incisors are strongly associated with the occurrence of impacted canines.8 However, we have also shown that, while those with large and larger-than-normal lateral incisors are likely to be affected by root resorption, resorption is highly unusual in cases with lateral incisors that are small or peg-shaped.9
The present case paradoxically shows severe and rapid resorption despite the presence of an enlarged canine follicle and peg-shaped lateral incisors. However, it falls into line with another study from our group which has shown that the likelihood of this extreme degree of resorption severity shows a 5:1 affinity for affecting females over males.10
Certainly, a more disciplined follow-up was indicated in this case, the more so since a study of incisor root resorption associated with impacted maxillary canines11 has indicated as many as 67% of affected incisors. The reason for this very high figure is undoubtedly due to today's use of accurate diagnostic modalities such as CBCT, through which it is possible to detect early lesions. It should nevertheless be remembered that every one of the severest and most extreme resorption cases starts life as a small and undetectable lesion!
It should be quite obvious in this case that the presence of extensive lesions in both lateral incisors spells their early demise. This demise will also be hastened if attempts are made to prosthodontically enhance their crown form, since the resorption front in each is at the CEJ.
In this situation, the two incisors should be extracted, taking care to remove the sequestrated apical portion of the root on the right side. The next task will be to resolve the impacted canine.
Three alternative lines of treatment are then available, as follows:-
1. Recreate the lateral incisor spaces, including correction of the midline and disperse the crowding by distal movement of the posterior teeth in both arches.
2. Bring forward the maxillary posterior teeth to close up the spaces and alter the crown form of the canines to simulate lateral incisors, finishing the posterior occlusion in a class 2 relationship.
3. Extract a mandibular premolar on each side to compensate for the missing lateral incisors and to maintain and improve the present class 1 molar relations, while closing up all spaces.
Lessons to be learned
From evidence-based studies of the phenomena described here, many associations between the presence of certain anomalies and the likelihood that certain unwanted side-effects will occur , may seem remote. Nevertheless, as orthodontists, we treat our patients on a one-by-one and a one-to-one basis and, in the end, our treatment must be tailored to the individual requirements of the patient and his/her malocclusion and not to a general statistic. In the present case, extreme root resorption of the incisor roots has unexpectedly been caused by eruption disturbance of adjacent canines, in the presence of peg-shaped lateral incisors and an enlarged canine follicle, features that clinical studies have shown to be normally unassociated with resorption. On the other hand, the existence of resorption of such extreme severity serves to emphasize the finding that it has a predilection for females.10
