Ukraine-made Hrim (Thunder) kamikaze drone has passed tests of its control systems and target detection algorithms.
The drone carries a 3.5 kg warhead, has a total take-off weight of 10 kg, being able to accelerate to 120 kmh and stay in the air for up to 60 minutes, as reported by Defense Express.
An optical station with a powerful camera allows detecting even small targets from an altitude of over 1,200 meters.
The drone's feature is the use of a powerful multitool, which simultaneously performs several tasks, namely lifting the Hrim to its cruiser altitude, barraging, and relaying control signals and telemetry. This allows increasing operating time and expanding the range of stable data transmission, even in the face of massive enemy e-warfare.
Hrim is a new type of weapon, which is barraging ammunition, combining the concepts of unmanned aerial vehicles and high-precision weapons.
Such drones are able to seek out a target and destroy it on their own.

More a book about Coast Guard heritage than an academic history, this book focuses on a variety of relatively unknown Coast Guardsmen who personify the service's core values. The author highlights the contributions of a variety of individuals, from seamen to admirals on active duty, as well as Reserves, Auxiliarists, and civilian members of Team Coast Guard. These heroes, representing a great diversity in age, sex, race, and ethnicity, set an example worthy of emulation and serve as role models for today's Coast Guard men and women.n the 1960s, as a young cadet at the Coast Guard Academy, I learned to recite from memory the mission of the academy. ... tothe Naval Academy in Annapolis, I wasstruck bythe number ofmonuments to U.S. Navy officer heroeson that campus . ...

Beginning in 1808, a young man begins keeping a secret, ciphered journal of his life with terse detail of his days.

On Monday morning, ESPN’s Adam Schefter announced that veteran kicker Jay Feely would be released by the Arizona Cardinals. Shortly after his tweet, Jay Feely confirmed on his own personal Twitter account, that he had been released by Arizona. To some, this comes as no surprise. Feely had been splitting time with rookie Chandler Catanzaro during the offseason, with head coach Bruce Arians set to decide between the two, who would be locked into the position before regular season began. “I think you always have competition, whether you have somebody here or not,” said Feely, per ESPN.com’s Josh Weinfuss. “You’re always looking around the whole NFL. You’re not just competing against [another kicker] in the locker room, and I’m not just competing for this job. It’s just the reality of kicking in the NFL.”
Mike Jurecki of Fox Sports 910, reported that Feely’s 2014 cap number sat at $635,000 while Catanzaro’s was at $420,000. The Cardinals decision to go with the younger, cheaper kicker, while releasing the veteran Feely saved them some cash. Feely missed a 48-yard attempt against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, and many have speculated that this may have been the final straw that led to his release. Whatever the reason, Feely most likely won’t be out of work very long as there are a few teams, most notably the Philadelphia Eagles and Denver Broncos, who could use a veteran kicker on their squad. With 13 years under his belt, Feely may be able to fill a void on a roster somewhere. We wish him the best of luck.
The Cardinals also released several other players ahead of the league-mandated roster cut which must trim rosters down to 75. The announced roster moves are below: (via azcardinals.com)
Also, an update on injured DT Darnell Dockett. He had his ACL tear surgically repaired Monday according to coach Bruce Arians. Arians said he would like to have Dockett around the team during the season, and on the sidelines on game day. We wish him a quick recovery and hope to see him back on the field in the future.

Associated Bank locations in Central and Northern Wisconsin collectively raised $1,259 for breast cancer prevention through Marshfield Clinic’s Pink Ribbon Campaign for the Catherine Fonti Breast Cancer Angel Fund.
The Angel Fund provides mammograms and other breast cancer prevention services to Marshfield Clinic patients who are struggling financially.
This is the second year Associated participated in selling pink paper ribbons to customers. Participating branches included: Abbotsford, Ashland, Crandon, Eagle River, Hayward, Hurley, Marshfield, Marshfield Festival Foods, Medford County Market, Mercer, Merrill, Minocqua, Mosinee Piggly Wiggly, Neillsville, Park Falls, Pittsville, Plover, Rhinelander, Rothschild Cedar Creek, Stevens Point, Wausau Downtown, Wausau Main, Weston, Wisconsin Rapids and Wittenberg.
“We are thankful to Associated Bank and their colleagues for again participating in the pink ribbon campaign and helping to raise awareness around breast cancer,” said Brooke Wolff, stewardship coordinator, Marshfield Clinic.
This winter’s donation helped create awareness for breast cancer prevention and further demonstrated Associated’s strong commitment to women’s health. Associated donated $250,000 to Marshfield Clinic for its Mobile Mammography Unit in 2012.
“We learned that the Angel Fund was depleted greatly over the summer because of the overwhelming need in our communities,” said Theresa O’Neel, senior branch manager, Associated Bank in Marshfield. “It’s great to know that our colleagues’ work will help ensure those in need receive potentially lifesaving services.”

TV Report about Rodney\’s Case and the latest investigative report:http://www.bostonreview.net/BR38.2/beth_schwartzapfel_valerie_finley_innocent_convictions.php
Rodney K. Stanberry- Innocent and Incarcerated: Year 17 Begins
March 24th, 2013
Today marks the completion of Rodney K. Stanberry’s 16th year in prison for crimes he did not commit. The Mobile DA’s office had evidence of Rodney’s innocence, it didn’t fit the prosecutor’s theory, so Rodney remains in prison and an injustice continues. Please keep Rodney, his family, and the victim’s family in your thoughts/prayers, as the Mobile County District Attorney’s office has done both families wrong. No one wins when the wrong person is convicted.
Rodney was arrested in 1992, convicted in 1995, and began serving his prison sentence in 1997. He was approximately just shy of 23 when arrested, 26 when sentenced, and one month shy of his 28th birthday when he spent his first day under the Alabama Department of Corrections. Imagine what his 28th birthday was like, innocent, incarcerated, and away from his parents, his new baby, his wife, his sister and his loved ones. He is currently 43, he will be 44 on April 27th, 2013. Rodney’s father was 58 when Rodney was arrested, 61 when Rodney was convicted, 63 when his son spent his first day in prison, and he is 79 on his son’s 16th complete year in prison. Rodney has a son who is now a teenager, and his mother died on September 8, 2012, cared for and surrounded by his father and his sister. His parents’ retirement years were taken away over this ordeal. Rodney came from a solidly two-parent, middle class household. His parents were married for as long as he has been alive. He did not have a criminal record, he had a steady job that he worked at until began serving his prison term, he had a bank account, an excellent reputation as a law abiding citizen, his entire future ahead of him, close friends and family and so on. If the Mobile DA’s office had followed the evidence instead of a theory, this ordeal would have been over long ago. Instead, on March 25th, 2013, he will begin his 17th year in prison for crimes he did not commit. While a book can and will be written to fill in what occurred during each of the years below, only some highlights are provided for your review.
Although calls to the Mobile District Attorney’s Office seem to be futile, your calls are needed to let District Attorney Ashley Rich know that you are concerned about the continued incarceration of Rodney K. Stanberry. She can be reached at (251) 574-6685 or firstname.lastname@example.org or her Chief Investigator Mike Morgan at (251) 574-8400 or email@example.com.

LagniappeMobile calls for an innocent project, the editorial includes the following: “Another case I believe needs an independent look is that of Rodney Stanberry, who has been in jail for murder for roughly 20 years now. A Lagniappe story in 2009 detailed the very shaky circumstances surrounding his conviction.” (Nov 2012: http://classic.lagniappemobile.com/article.asp?articleID=5978)
March 2013: Investigative Journalist Beth Schwartzapfel completed and published her investigation in the Boston Review. You can read it here: “Who Shot Valerie Finley: Why Is One Man’s Innocence So Hard to Prove” http://www.bostonreview.net/BR38.2/beth_schwartzapfel_valerie_finley_innocent_convictions.php
In this article, she includes the confession by Terrell Moore, a confession that the District Attorney’s Office worked to suppress BEFORE Rodney’s trial, even as he confessed in front of the prosecutor and was given immunity from prosecution if he did so, AGAIN, before Rodney’s trial. You can read the confession here: http://freerodneystanberry.com/yahoo_site_admin/assets/docs/20100914155256.256155350.pdf.
But here is a portion of investigative journalist Beth Schwartzapfel’s article as it relates Moore appearing before Rodney Rule 32 Post Conviction Hearing:
Aside from Mike Finley, Taco Jones, Tyrone Dortch, and five of Rodney’s coworkers who testified at Rodney’s trial, there was one additional person who would not have corroborated everything that Valerie said: Terrell Moore. Hoping that Terrell would finally “come clean,” as he had promised Ryan Russell he would, Knizely called him to the stand at the hearing. Terrell seemed prepared to testify.
But Knizely had no sooner asked Terrell his name than Martha Tierney, the assistant district attorney, jumped in. “Judge, I hate to interrupt Mr. Knizely, because I have the world of respect for him,” she began, “but if Mr. Moore is going to testify about the things we anticipate he will testify about, and I’m concerned this is a state forum, and that he would take this stand unrepresented and with no grant of immunity to make statements that could have life consequences for him. I just wish that the Court be apprised of that and our concern about that, sir.”
Knizely was incredulous. “Judge, from our understanding, the State’s [position is that] the man—he has no credibility. And are they are telling us now they are going to prosecute him if he confesses to it?”
It was a good question. If the district attorney’s office truly believed, as it had maintained all along, that Rodney was guilty and Terrell was (for some inscrutable reason) lying about his involvement, then why threaten to prosecute him? To prosecute him, the state would have to believe he was guilty. It would have been almost impossible for both Terrell and Rodney to be guilty, since one story contradicted the other. And yet Tierney was simultaneously defending the verdict against Rodney and threatening to prosecute Terrell. It seemed she was trying to scare Terrell off the stand in order to preserve Rodney’s conviction. The Mobile District Attorney’s office did not respond to multiple requests for comment, submitted via email, by phone, and in person.
Tierney pressed on. “If he comes in here and says ‘it’s me pals,’ then it’s goodbye sunlight for the rest of his living life, and he’s young,” she said.
Finally, after some additional back-and-forth, Knizely was allowed to proceed. “Mr. Moore,” he began, “you recall whenever a lady named Mrs. Finley was shot? Do you remember back in those days when you were called as a witness in this case?”
Tierney interrupted again. “Judge, may I object sir, for one minute? Could you just, Your Honor, if I may respectfully ask that at least you instruct him that he does have the right under the Fifth Amendment not to make any statements.”
“I thought I just did that,” McRae said, “but I’ll do it again. Under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution,” he told Terrell again, “you do not have to answer any question which could even possibly incriminate you. Do you understand that?”
“Yes, sir, I understand it.”
“Okay, proceed,” McRae said. But Tierney interrupted again.
“And that the State would use anything he says today, Your Honor, against him.”
“The State can and may,” the Judge said.
“Yes, Your Honor, I understand,” Terrell said, “and I plead the Fifth Amendment.” http://www.bostonreview.net/BR38.2/beth_schwartzapfel_valerie_finley_innocent_convictions.php
As Rodney begins his 17th year of incarceration on March 25th, 2017, will Mobile County District Attorney Ashley Rich work to release Rodney K. Stanberry? Rodney has his third parole hearing on July 2013. District Attorney Ashley Rich has worked to block paroles during her time as District Attorney. While one can understand blocking the parole of those who are truly guilty, but to keep an innocent man in prison is far from understandable. When inmates come before the parole board, the parole board wants to hear that they are guilty and express remorse. Rodney refuses to say he is guilty for crimes he did not commit. It doesn’t matter that he has jobs lined up, family support, sponsors, supporting letters from co-workers, friends and even, as occurred during his previous parole, a letter from the arresting officer, the parole board wants to hear that a person is guilty. This is a true travesty of justice, and, as the New York Times carried about the innocent prisoner’s dilemma: http://www.nytimes.com/video/2010/06/04/nyregion/1247467961918/the-innocent-prisoner-s-dilemma.html.

Probably the most controversial and most polarizing movie of this entire year.
Fans of the iconic original Ghostbusters movies were longing for a third adventure of the ghostbusting crew for many years now.
After a long time in development hell, the new Ghostbusters movie now comes in the form of a female led protagonist crew and a full on reboot.
Yet considering that the first trailer for this movie already gained the status of one of the most disliked movie trailers on YouTube ever, is the Ghostbusters reboot really actually that bad or is it only a badly marketed movie?
Time to find out...
Following a ghost invasion of Manhattan, paranormal enthusiasts Erin Gilbert and Abby Yates, nuclear engineer Jillian Holtzmann, and subway worker Patty Tolan band together to stop the otherworldly threat.
The new Ghostbusters reboot sure will be remembered as one of the worst marketed movies in recent memory.
Aside from the general backlash from the public and especially fans of the original two movies, it has to be said that Sony Pictures really clumsily handeled the controversy and extremely polarizing reactions to the first trailers of the movie. With an unhealthy focus on people who disliked the movie being mostly called childish sexists, the movie was destined to have a very rough start.
But with all that aside and now that the movie is released, it turns out that the Ghostbusters reboot sadly nevertheless feels just as soulless, overproduced and greedy as the film universe trend addicted Hollywood itself. Without a strong comedic script, rather bland characters and the sole selling point of the movie being nostalgia and that it now features a female cast, the Ghostbusters reboot simply pales in comparison to the iconic original as a slapped together nostalgia cashgrab.
|The only thing that's even worse than the actual movie is its marketing.|
Starting off with the story, being presented as a reboot, one would've expected a whole lot more from this newest Ghostbusters movie.
While the story checks off enough points to make for an overall rather servicable story with a clear beginning and end and doesn't nearly feel as sequel-baity as expected, the Ghostbusters reboot orients itself very much (and in many aspects too much) on the story structure of the first movie. With only a few diversions, the way the Ghostbusters meet each other, their first successful ghostbusting job, to the grand finale featuring a big white monster stomping across New York, the movie has so many parallels and familiar beats from the original that the Ghostbusters reboot often feels like a remake rather than a reboot.
Sure enough, the addition of now female Ghostbusters is a nice way of freshening things up, yet the movie's story feels so samey to the original that it feels actually quite pointless to have female Ghostbusters when the exact same story and almost same dialogue could be done with a cast of pretty much any gender.
However, does that all at least mean that the Ghostbusters reboot is at least just as funny as the original? - Not in the slightest. While many expected the movie to feature bad comedy all throughout, the Ghostbusters reboot actually isn't as much bad as it is just bland and flat. Considering that especially Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarthy work with the exact same style of comedy that is expected and known from them (like in Bridesmaids, Tammy, Spy, etc.), the comedy in the movie feels just as uninspired as the movies storyline.
But seeing that the movie's story could at least be presented and repackaged here as a "remake", the now rather flat comedy and jokes of course can't and thus reveal the true uninspired core of this forgettable reboot.
|"I take the slapped together rehash of the original menu."|
But why doesn't the comedy work in this reboot?
The answer is simple: 1. because the jokes are predictable, not memorable and not funny and 2. because despite the different looks of the new female Ghostbusters members, each of them feels like the same character.
In the original Ghostbusters, most of the comedy in the movie was generated through the simple combination of four very different characters in a team. Whereas Murray was the smartassy womanizing cool guy, Aykroyd was the smoking wannabe badass, Egon was the down to earth brains of the team, and Ernie Hudson was the "I'm too old for this shit" kind of guy, it is obvious that the Ghostbusters reboot desperately tries to recapture this exact same team combo but just fails.
The result are four female actresses that actually can be funny, but who just aren't in this movie. Sadly this is mostly because their characters happen to be written way too similarly. Sure enough Patty the sassy black chick and Jillian the badass tech genius of the group alone stick out visually, yet when seeing how the team interacts in the movie, there is barely any dialogue between the members that creates good comedy due to their personal differences. It often feels like many lines from the Ghostbusters women could easily be switched around at will. Especially in the big finale and overly long showdown of the movie (which also ends in a ridiculous Deus Ex Machina solution by the way) it feels like you are watching the same Ghostbuster woman fight the ghosts in each scene and not four distinctly different female characters.
|Despite their different appearances, they all feel like the same character.|
What also is very obvious in the movie, and this is in no way related to me being a sexist or whatever, is that the entire movie has a very "girl power"-esque feel to it. And while this can rightfully and understandably be a theme in this now female led Ghostbusters movie, it is painstakingly obvious that there are absolutely zero intelligent or good male characters present in the movie which makes this theme feel kind of aggressive.
Even all the way down to the cameos of the original four Ghostbusters actors, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson, the Ghostbusters movie in its own way might come off as feeling sexist towards men or agressively feminist sometimes in its own way. At the latest when there are absolutely no relatable male characters in the movie or when the big bad guy Rowan in his gigantic ghost form gets shot in is testicles by the Ghostbusters team, you know that this movie doesn't even try to deliver its "girl power" theme in any subtle way whatsoever.
|That claw trap in the back there is called The Nutcracker....No joke.|
Yet the most offensive thing about the ridiculous depiction of the male characters in the movie happens to come in the form of the Ghostbusters' new secretary Kevin, played by Chris Hemsworth.
I don't know if Hemsworth lost a bet or anything or just happens to have one of the most useless agents ever, but the kind of character he is depicting here is beyond tasteless. The entire comedy surrounding Hemsworth's character Kevin is that he is ridiculously stupid. Not in a clever quirky way but just absolutely unrealistically stupid. He is the kind of guy who tries to touch fish in an aquarium but bumps into the glas with his hand because he is too stupid to realize how glas works. THAT kind of stupid. And it's just mindboggling that even in a movie that already features mostly flat and predictable comedy, this character manages to stick out as flatout unfitting and over-the-top bad. It honestly feels like his character would be more suited for a Scooby-Doo movie for toddlers or something and not a reboot of one of the best comedies and most iconic 80s movies of all time.
|Chris. Honestly. For the love of god, fire your agent!|
Taking a quick look at the villain in this movie, he is also as forgettable as they come.
While the antagonist called Rowan happens to be some lunatic who believes in the downfall of mankind and wishes for the apocalypse to finally get rid of the world's population, it will get instantly clear that no real creative thought has been put into his character. He is simply characterized as the maniacal freak who wants the world to burn without any realy backstory or reason to it to convince any viewer that his motivations have some good points or anything.
With the original Ghostbusters movie, there, the movie didn't even have to resort to any human villain but simply and luckily put a supernatural demon in the forefront. With Gozer being the genderly-undefinable bad entity who wants to rule over the world, one didn't need to much of an explanation. It's an evil godlike entity - that's it. Yet the Ghostbusters reboot thought that the same logic would equally well apply to a human villain so that the movie could have the same big showdown as the original movie. But surprise: what it only leads to is a bland villain and a showdown that feels unnecessarily much like a rip-off.
(This gets especially dumb when Rowan asks the Ghostbusters to choose the form of the destroyer - which makes absolutely no sense, especially when Rowan is a human ghost and not even a godlike demon!)
|Because we desperately needed to also have a big white monster in the finale.|
Overall, despite a female led cast and having doors wide open to play around with the Ghostbusters lore and world with new ideas, it turns out that the Ghostbusters reboot only barely has any actually creative or good ideas of its own.
With the only selling point of this reboot being that the Ghostbusters are now female, there's nothing else that makes this reboot feel necessary or let alone worth watching that hasn't been already done leagues better in the original two movies.
Featuring a storyline that feels like an uninspired rehash of the original, a lack of any worthwhile jokes or comedy, too undistinguishable and uninteresting lead characters, a boring cardboard-cutout villain and an insultingly idiotic secretary played by Chris Hemsworth, the Ghostbusters reboot's lack of anything that could potentially lead the franchise into any new interesting paths makes the entire movie feel exactly like the blatant nostalgia cashgrab that it sadly turns out to be.
While the hate for the now female Ghostbusters is of course absolutely unjust, it's undeniable that the reboot feels like a slapped together mere shadow of the original.
The female Ghostbusters reboot really had a chance to revive the franchise in style, but sadly absolutely fails to do so since it obviously seems more interested in badly mimicing the original than to come up with a worthwhile strong identity of its own.
Final Verdict: 2 out of 10

When wearing her jeans and shouldering a backpack on campus, Seher Awan has sometimes been mistaken for a student rather than Mission College’s 12th president. She doesn’t fit the traditional stereotype.
Her nonconformity—added to a Doctor of Education Degree from Pepperdine University and 16 years of community college work experience—just may be what will give Dr. Awan an edge in meeting the needs of the diverse students at Santa Clara’s Mission College, founded in 1976.
At 36, Awan, believed to be the youngest California college president, embodies the American immigrant dream of success. Although she was born in Los Angeles, her father was born and raised in Kenya and her mother as a sheltered Muslim woman in Pakistan.
Her father, who grew up in poverty, immigrated to California at 15. In time, a traditional Muslim marriage was arranged for her parents. They got engaged long distance by phone, met and married in Los Angeles—and fell in love.
“I struggled, being a child of immigrants,” said Awan, who has a younger brother. “We are a close-knit family, but there was a misalignment in culture.
“I was not socially normed as a Muslim woman,” Awan continued. “It was difficult to reconcile the cultures.”
Awan is the first in her family to graduate from college, starting out at College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, Calif., where her mother also once attended. But Awan’s high educational achievements were not a given.
“I wasn’t the best student in high school. I drove my parents nuts for a while,” said Awan. “I had fun doing things I wasn’t supposed to be doing. But it’s not where you start, it’s where you finish [that matters].”
“I believe in the power of education to change lives and uplift families to a better future. I started out as a first-generation community college student and can relate to the path of [Mission College] students,” said Awan. “I love what I do and helping others makes my life complete.”
Awan was president of Los Angeles Southwest College from July 2018 until she began her tenure at Mission College on Aug. 1, 2022. She wasn’t looking for a new job but couldn’t resist the lure of Mission College.
“Mission College is an amazing institution. I wasn’t necessarily looking for a change, but when I became aware of the opportunity and learned more about Mission, I felt that the institution aligned with my values and called to me,” said Awan.
“This is a great college doing amazing equity work to support students and the community. I felt I could make a difference at Mission and support the college in reaching its potential and shining brightly within the region,” she continued. “My values and beliefs deeply aligned with the college’s mission, values, and equity framework around social justice.”
With equity, students are provided with individualized opportunities to succeed. Not all students need the same assistance.
“We’re conforming to what students need, not vice versa,” said Awan.
“I’m excited and happy to be here. I’m excited for more people to know what a jewel Mission College is,” said President Awan.
“This is very joyful work, and if you’re not finding joy, you should reassess.”
Beyond campus, Awan, who lives in San Jose, finds joy in hiking and traveling with her husband and pampering her Yorkshire terrier. Follow her on social media: on Instagram @MissionscPrez and on Twitter @SeherAwan13.

What would a fair price from a mechanic be for turning 2 front rotors and cleaning throttle plate and airflow sensor?
by Visitor in Pigeon Forge, TN on February 08, 2011
it pays .5 hours per rotor to resurface according to my books.
throttle body service runs about 30
you do not clean todays throttle body's due to the coatings on the plate. air flow sensors are the same. cleaning rarely works.
Frankly, it's often better just to put in new rotors given the small price difference and sometimes questionable outcome of turning..Turning rotors is my area can cost 16 each and new rotors can be had for 30.
Thank you for the answers. I had new front rotors put on my 03 Escape three years ago and recently experienced squeaking when brakes were applied, so after a trip to a mechanic and $90 later I now have 2 turned rotors--I guess that was not the best option for me to take. In response to the throttle plate and airflow sensor I have had the IAC replaced twice and after some trouble starting the vehicle(the same trouble before the two new IAC's) I figured I would have to have another IAC, but $60.00 later I now have a cleaned throttle plate and airflow sensor which rarely works---Hummm! Thank you for your honest answers!

About the programme
Art and Disability aims to support greater access to the arts by disabled people as audiences and as artists. We work with leading Italian institutions to celebrate the unique generation of disabled artists in Italy and the UK, and to support exchange of best practice between arts professionals. It is a major ongoing commitment of the British Council. We aim to transform the way that disabled people access the arts as artists and arts professionals, and also as audience members and visitors.
Across Europe, disabled artists are transforming different art forms. In dance, disabled artists are challenging traditional approaches to the body and movement, as well as developing new dance vocabularies. In theatre, disabled artists are telling new and unheard stories, and communicating these stories in powerful and unexpected ways. In the visual arts, disabled artists are revealing diverse perspectives and exploring different ways of experiencing the world.
For us, disabled artists are offering some of the biggest creative opportunities of our time.
Together we can make a significant difference to the cultural opportunities for disabled Italian artists and audiences, as well as introduce Italian examples and best practice to UK organisations.
Our main Italian arts partners include:

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Sazerac is taking the plunge into Tennessee whiskey production, continuing an expansion strategy highlighted by its purchase of Southern Comfort.
The family-owned, privately held company said Thursday it purchased a distillery in Newport, Tennessee, for an undisclosed price.
Sazerac says it expects to begin producing Tennessee whiskey at the distillery in early 2017.
Before production begins, the company says it needs to modify the distillery's pot stills.
The company says it's long been interested in expanding to Tennessee whiskey production. The dominant Tennessee whiskey brand is Jack Daniel's, the flagship brand of Sazerac rival Brown-Forman Corp.
Sazerac purchased Southern Comfort from Brown-Forman earlier this year in a deal that also include Tuaca, a premium liqueur brand.
Sazerac has an extensive lineup of whiskeys, vodkas, gins, tequilas and other spirits.

There is a Greek player who is preparing for the tennis Australian Open wearing a Japanese soccer team uniform.
Greek tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas (24) wore the away uniform of the Japanese national soccer team while preparing for the Australian Open (total prize money of 76.5 million Australian dollars) to open in Melbourne, Australia on the 16th. This uniform is the new Adidas uniform announced ahead of the opening of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Tsitsipas is a tennis player sponsored by Adidas. Even if it is the same brand, it is unusual for a tennis player to train in public wearing a different sports uniform. In addition, he chose the Japanese uniform of Asia, not the uniform of his home country, the Greek national soccer team.
Here’s an interesting point. In fact, the Japanese soccer team players have never worn this away uniform at the Qatar World Cup. Japan played in a total of 4 matches, including 3 group stage matches and the round of 16, and wore a blue home uniform in all 4 matches. This is because the colors of the home uniforms of the opposing teams (Germany, Costa Rica, Spain, and Croatia) do not overlap.
Chichipas said, “The Japanese uniform I wear is a medium that connects the spirit of sports and the spirit of the Japanese samurai. “It is clothes that contain Japanese cultural heritage,” he said. “It also connects the modern and the ancient. It contains both the power of the present age and the beauty of the ancient times,” he wrote on social media. 안전놀이터
Tsitsipas is a notorious football fanatic. Shortly before the Qatar World Cup final between Argentina and France, he posted a picture on social media wearing the Argentina captain Messi uniform. Below that, he prayed for Argentina’s victory, saying, “Let’s go, Argentina!”
As Tsitsipas had hoped, Argentina won the World Cup in Qatar. Messi set various World Cup records and became the best player of the tournament. Meanwhile, Greece, the homeland of Tsitsipas, failed to participate in the World Cup in Qatar as it was eliminated from the European qualifiers.

We have given due respect to the president for his re-election.
Unfortunately to his cause for redistribution of everyone's income who works for a living, it does not give him carte blanche to take our assets and give them to the throngs of people who refuse to work and rely on government handouts.
The voting was not a landslide. A 52% to 48% voting distribution does not qualify as a landslide and will not be acknowledged as such.
With three weeks having passed, we are at the same position as we started. The Republican House versus the Democratic Senate and White House.
The president has performed an excellent job at maintaining a divided country, his Nobel peace prize is lacking in peace in the Middle East, and all we hear is how we are going to pay dearly for his agendas.
What we haven't heard is how we are going to come together and fix this country. What bothers me most of all is the highly educated writers who continue to flaunt their beliefs (Andrew Heller) and provide no answer as to how this mess is going to be fixed.
There aren't enough tax dollars available to fix this mess. The president isn't going to get business on board any time soon. Business is figuring out how they are going to cut their healthcare benefit programs now that the Affordable Care Act is here to stay. There aren't enough Federal dollars available to pay for the cost given the explosion of people who will be on the government's healthcare plan.
No Mr. Obama, you will not be able to keep your healthcare plan. The masses will not be able to afford healthcare once they begin paying their own premiums.
The taxes collected at the federal level will go to support the spending at the federal level, thus ignoring the multitude of problems that continue to exist at the local level. The voting did nothing to solve our local issues of dwindling tax base and increasing costs.
Let me be clear, I am not a Republican. I voted for as many Democrats as I did Republicans. Tax our corporations, but remember you take away income that would go to shareholders who happen to be current and future retirees.
The pension funds of teachers, policemen, firemen, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers will be forever strapped due to the decisions you make in the short run to solve problems that are long term structural issues.
We have educational and socio-economic issues that we need to solve. They will not be easy or pleasant. It is necessary.

Don’t forget we have to wake up Green Day tomorrow.
Ok just a reminder to everyone: If you’re planning on tweeting billie joe armstrong “wake up” or something tomorrow, DON’T. The song is about his father’s death and so it’s really personal and treating it like a joke isn’t the right thing to do. Plus he’s asked so many times for people to stop and no one listens so yeah. Please don’t do that.
I literally overcame self esteem issues by making ironically over-arrogant claims because even if you’re joking about something a lot you start to believe it and that can totally work in a good way if you let it
They’ve done studies and the “fake it till you make it” mindset actually works and if you keep up a mantra you come to believe it after a time. It actually is how I came to really love myself.

CIRCULATORY collapse following acute myocardial infarction usually is attributed to a central or "pump" failure. Contrariwise, circulatory failure following blood loss is associated with peripheral hemodynamic alterations which, although not fully understood, may lead to circulatory collapse in spite of restoration of blood volume. Moreover, the relative roles of central pump failure and peripheral vascular failure in the genesis of surgical shock are ill-defined. Further, the hemodynamic patterns and interrelationships between shock arising from different etiologic agents as hemorrhage, trauma, and sepsis are poorly understood.
The present communication describes hemodynamic measurements in a series of 100 patients who were in various degrees of circulatory disturbances. Included in this series were normal control subjects; patients who had been in shock but were compensated at the time of study; patients who were in shock incident to hemorrhage, surgical trauma, and sepsis; and a group of patients with miscellaneous surgical problems.
