Astrobiology is the study of the origin and development of life on this and other planets. What fascinates people about astrobiology is that it seeks answers to long-standing unsolved questions: How quickly did life evolve on Earth and why did life persist here? Is there life elsewhere in the Solar System or beyond? The research of astrobiology has become more crucial than ever in recent decades, as biologists have discovered microbes that live in ever more extreme settings, such as bubbling hot springs, in acid, or deep within rocks.
Genetic and archaeological finding suggest wildcats became house cats much earlier and in a much different place. This article was published in the June 2009 edition of Scientific American.

5 hours daily on phone increases risk of obesity
Researchers have found that students who use their smartphones five or more hours a day are prone to higher risk of obesity and likely to have other lifestyle habits that increases the risk of heart disease.
According to a study, researchers analysed 1,060 students (700 girls and 360 boys) of Colombia with an average age of 19 years and 20 years, respectively.
"It is important for the general population to know and be aware that, despite being undoubtedly attractive for its multiple purposes, portability, comfort, access to countless services, information and entertainment sources, mobile technology should also be used to improve habits and healthy behaviours," said study lead Author.
The study found that the risk of obesity increases by 43 per cent if a smartphone was used for five or more hours a day, as participating students were twice as likely to drink more sugary drinks, fast food, sweets, snacks and have decreased physical activities.
According to researchers, 26 per cent of the students who were overweight and 4.6 per cent who were obese spent more than five hours using their device.
Spending too much time using the smartphone facilitates sedentary behaviours, reduces the time of physical activity, which increases the risk of premature death, diabetes, heart disease and different types of cancer, the study said.
According to a surgical Gastroenterology, using smartphones today is not a mere choice, rather it has become a necessity. But using it for too long may risk your healthy life.
"The best way out is to encourage yourself to reduce the duration of time being used on phones and other related gadgets at the same time, to indulge in physical activities like yoga or any other sports or exercise pattern," researchers added.

Vision for a Malaysian Malaysia
By Tunku Aziz (The Malaysian Insider)
SEPT 13 – Fifty-two years of Merdeka, of being in full control of our own destiny, and what have we achieved as far as national unity is concerned?
It remains a forlorn hope, a gleam in the eye at best. A harsh comment, perhaps, but it is not far from the truth.
The polarisation which exists today and which appears to have taken a grip on the nation as a whole must not be allowed to gain a permanent foothold.
Bearing in mind that we are talking in national terms, the problem bedeviling us affects us all-they are our problems both individually and collectively. What can we all do about them?
Whether we succeed or fail in bringing about sustainable national unity depends very much on the social, educational, and economic policies that we develop and implement.
Of these, I consider education to be the most important agent of change. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that because our education policy allows for separate existence of ethnic schools, a sort of educational apartheid, whole generations of Malaysians of different racial backgrounds have grown up without the benefit of studying, playing together and enjoying the rich cultural diversity to be found in this country of ours.
The result is apathy, indifference, ignorance and prejudice. All this is a far cry from my own school days when we were in it together, and by the time we left school, we would have made friends with boys and girls of all races, many of whom are still my friends today.
Race was an accident, and it certainly never bothered me. I am convinced that the road to national integration is through the portals of our national schools.
I do not believe that you can create racial unity and understanding by putting young children in their separate national institutions.
My views on a single education system do not go down well with people who are blinkered, and care little or nothing about the future of their country. We have little choice in the matter if we want to achieve integration on a sustainable basis.
The government must find the courage to review the education system with the single, overarching objective of achieving national unity by providing one that, while meeting the language needs of the Chinese and the Indians, is truly national in every respect.
All of us must drop our chauvinistic and selfish grandstanding, and start to think about the country for once. Otherwise, there is not going to be a ghost of a chance of creating a society that can live side by side in harmony, grounded in mutual trust, respect and understanding.
The harmony that we proudly claim to exist in our country is not deep rooted. Scratch the surface, and what do we really see? Uneasy coexistence, compounded by the most irrational suspicion and prejudice.

Everybody apparently loves Chris … except for Will Smith.
Ticket prices for Chris Rock’s upcoming comedy tour—which kicks off at the Borgata in Atlantic City on April 2—have spiked in the days since Will Smith now-infamously slapped Rock across the face on stage at the Oscars.
Ticket resale website TickPick reports that prices went up from a minimum of $46 per ticket on March 18 to a minimum of $341 following the Oscars, according to Variety.
“We sold more tickets to see Chris Rock overnight than we did in the past month combined,” the site tweeted Monday, one day after the Academy Awards.
Rock, who lives in the ritzy celebrity enclave of Alpine, NJ, begins his nationwide Ego Death World Tour with two shows at the Borgata on April 2. On Tuesday night, tickets were sold out via direct Ticketmaster sales. On resale site Stubhub, Borgata tickets were going for $368-$720.
Prior to the official start of his tour, Rock, 57, is playing Boston’s Wilbur Theater from March 30-April 1. After his performances in the Garden State, he goes on to play cities including Pittsburgh and Las Vegas.
In a moment that shocked film fans worldwide, Smith walked up on stage and smacked Rock in the face at Sunday’s Oscars, after Rock made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s short hair. Pinkett Smith suffers from alopecia, which causes hair loss. Pinkett Smith has been open about her condition in the past.
Shortly after going after Rock, Smith, 53, won an Oscar, his first, for Best Actor for his role in “King Richard.” He gave a long, tear-filled speech that centered on defending his family.
During the speech, he apologized to the Academy and others at the show for his behavior, but did not mention Rock.
However, on Monday, he issued an apology on Instagram that read in part: “Jokes at my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada’s medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally. I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.”
Rock has lived in a $3 million mansion in Alpine—which consistently ranks as New Jersey’s most expensive zip code—since 2011. The four-bedroom, four-bathroom, 10,300-square-foot pad is located on 2 acres, according to the New York Post. Other famous Alpine residents include Tracy Morgan, Lil Kim and Stevie Wonder.

The Arizona Cardinals returned home Sunday, falling to the Philadelphia Eagles 20-17 in front of an Eagles-dominated crowd at State Farm Stadium as replacement kicker Matt Ammendola’s potential game-tying field goal attempt sailed wide right in the closing seconds. With the loss, the Cards fall to 2-3. The Eagles stay unbeaten, improving to 5-0.
Here are #FiveThingsWeLearned in Glendale.
1. Empty Nesters…The Cardinals, for whatever reason, simply can’t win at home. In fact, when the Cards return to State Farm Stadium for their next home game, Thursday, October 20th against the New Orleans Saints, it will mark nearly one full calendar year since Arizona has won a game on their home turf. After Sunday’s loss, their last win dates all the way back to October 24, 2021, a 31-5 victory over the Houston Texans.
— Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) October 9, 2022
Head coach Kliff Kingsbury was at a loss for words after the game. “I don’t have an explanation,” he said of the home struggles. “Each year is different. We have to find a way to win at home.” The home losing streak now sits at eight games.
2. Slow From the Get-Go…Another week, another first quarter with the Cards having a “0” next to their name in the scoring column. The Eagles scored early in the quarter, then were on the move at the end of the first 15 minutes of game action. This teams’ early-game offensive ineptness is head-scratching, especially considering how dynamic Kyler Murray is.
Cardinals fall behind early. That’s become a cliché over the last five weeks.
— Kent Somers (@kentsomers) October 9, 2022
“To come out flat five-straight weeks,” Kingsbury lamented. “We’ll keep trying. The margin of error playing against a talented team like [Philadelphia] is small.”
The Cards’ struggles Sunday benefited those with a sweet tooth back east.
— Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) October 9, 2022
Arizona has been outscored 38-0 in the first quarter of games this season.
3. Leg Day…While Murray may show more sizzle on some of his scramble runs, Philly’s Jalen Hurts simply sets the tone with his legs. The 2019 Heisman Trophy Award winner had a 17-yard run down the Eagles’ sideline, and two short touchdown plunges early in the game which got the Eagles soaring with Arizona, again, sleep-walking through the first quarter.
Jalen Hurts QB sneak for a TD run it back 💪
— NFL (@NFL) October 9, 2022
Hurts is on pace to set an NFL record for rushing attempts for a quarterback this season. He finished the day with a team-high 61 yards on 15 carries. Many of his runs helped open up Philly’s passing attack. Hurts was 26-36 for 239 yards and did not throw an interception (89.9 quarterback rating). His evolution as a complete NFL quarterback is a big reason for the Eagles’ fast start this season.
4. Fine Line Between Winning and Losing…The easy play would be to blame the replacement kicker for missing the biggest attempt in his NFL career but their were a number of key parts, including the three topics listed above, where Arizona could have stamped the Eagles with their first loss. While Murray was solid (28-42, 250 yards, one touchdown), he threw an interception and missed a couple of key throws – including a potential chunk play on a deep out to tight end Zach Ertz in from of the Arizona sideline, as well as a big drop by Hollywood Brown which could have gone for a long touchdown. A key false start on Kelvin Beachum on the Cards’ final drive, as well as allowing the Eagles to convert a key 3rd-and-12 earlier only adds salt to the wound.
“There were a lot of moments where we could have played better,” Kingsbury lamented.
Arizona’s first four offensive possessions were punt, punt, interception, punt. Good teams in the NFL exploit weaknesses. The Cards have found that out first-hand in their three losses against teams (Kansas City, Los Angeles Rams, Eagles) with a combined record of 10-4.
5. Hooray for Hollywood…It’s been a slow build up this season, but Brown’s emergence in Arizona’s passing attack, especially considering DeAndre Hopkins’ return from suspension in two weeks, is exciting to think about.
— Arizona Cardinals (@AZCardinals) October 9, 2022
Brown got the Cards’ scoring on track in the second quarter with a nifty 25-yard catch-and-run. His five catches and 71 receiving yards in the first half were both team-highs. He netted over half of Murray’s first half passing yards (141), and served as KM1’s primary target on most pass plays. His final stat line was eight receptions for 78 yards (both team highs) and the touchdown.
Arizona is back on the road next Sunday in Seattle against the Seahawks. In his post-game press conference, Kingsbury stressed the importance of putting this tough loss in the rearview mirror and looking to get their first NFC West win after falling to the Rams on September 25th.

Community: Mozy Support Community (community.mozy.com)
Lithy category: Best Community Technical Implementation
Three years ago we created the Mozy community to add a level of support for our customers. The community has helped decrease the number of support cases that have been created by customers while keeping a high level of customer satisfaction. We rely on our super users to help answer questions for their peers but we find ourselves asking support agents to answer questions in the community. We know there will always be a need for Mozy support agents to work with customers but would like the community involvement to answer a majority of the questions.
Since we launched our community we have been cultivating users to participate more frequently and with a higher level of knowledge. We provide knowledgebase articles, tutorials, and technical blogs for them to pull their information from. This process has helped us further reduce support costs while keeping customer satisfaction over what we agreed to be an acceptable level. Gamification has been a huge influence on the processes we have implemented to drive this participation.
As processes of gamification grow, so does the need to have a leveling system in place. To complement the Lithium rank structure we have implemented a leveling scale that shows the progress to the next rank. As community members participate and work towards the next level in the community, they can see their progress and have an idea of what it will take to get to the next level. We built a custom slider bar that shows how close the customer is to the next rank. Once the customer ranks up the slider bar refreshes to show what it takes to get to the next rank.
We have also implemented a rank system so community members can start off as a villager and work their way up to cook, ninjas, and eventually the overlord through participation. We used the default Lithium measurements for the rank system but changed the names and provided corresponding avatars. For example, when the user reaches the rank of Sensei the new avatar becomes available. We modified our notifications to not only alert customers that their rank has increased but that they can change their avatar as well.
To augment the new features we wanted to provide our community members with more context for the gamification concept. We wrote a story that goes through our protagonist’s life story and how he started off as a lowly villager and through much learning, dedication and will, worked his way up to be the Overlord and eventually the Emperor. The story can be found at http://community.mozy.com/t5/community-story/ct-p/communitystory . The story changes dynamically as the community member’s rank increases. If you were to visit this page while not logged in you would not see any information. If you create an account then you will see the first part of the story. Once you level up then more of the story will become available.
A member of our staff created all of the avatars along with full size images. We went through multiple versions of the story but eventually agreed on the story that is now available. We have had great feedback from our customers and staff members on this process.

Brad Paisley loves the troops, and he has no qualms about showing it. In fact, when two women attended one of the singer's recent concerts in Bangor, Maine with cardboard cutouts of their soldier significant others, Paisley went above and beyond to pay his respects.
Brad Paisley's wife Kimberly Williams-Paisley may play someone's mistress on the hit show 'Nashville,' but in real life, she and her superstar husband are totally committed to one another, despite rumors.
Brad Paisley and wife Kimberly Williams-Paisley (of 'Nashville') were recently swept up in a cruel hoax that all started with an email from a woman claiming her daughter was dying of neuroblastoma, a form of pediatric cancer.
There's nothing like a good promo for the 2013 CMA Awards to get us psyched up for country music's biggest night! And hosts Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley already have us laughing in a new promo commercial for the event.
Brad Paisley's track 'Accidental Racist' stirred up much controversy when 'Wheelhouse' was released and is possibly one of the most controversial songs in country music. The singer, never one to mince words, recently shared what he learned from this experience.
Brad Paisley is a major prankster. He's notorious for his love of sneaky shenanigans on tour -- usually done to his openers. But this time, his opening acts Lee Brice and the Henningsens got to him first, pulling a major prank on the singer.
Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood are back! The big announcement was made Monday night (Aug. 12) during the pre-taped CMA Music Festival broadcast on ABC. The pair will return to host the 2013 CMA Awards in Nashville this November. It's their sixth time co-hosting the ceremony.

Meghan Markle Just Wrote Encouraging Notes on Bananas & Now We Love Her Even More
It’s been a big day for Meghan Markle. Not only did the 37-year-old Duchess of Sussex utilize one of Kate Middleton and Prince William’s most tried-and-true parenting techniques and come face-to-face with a foul-mouthed (but funny) preteen, but she also proved she’s queen of thoughtfulness.
At One25 Charity’s outreach center, which specializes in assisting female sex workers and addicts, the duchess packed bagged lunches and came up with a clever way to share the charity’s positive message. Markle put her calligraphy skills to use and wrote notes of encouragement to women in need on banana peels.
In a video posted on Twitter by Kensington Palace, she explained, “I’m in charge of the banana messaging.”
As CBO (chief banana officer) of the operation, Markle wrote messages like, “You are special,” “You are strong,” “You are brave” and “You are loved.” She even included little hearts, because that’s just the kind of duchess she is.

While packing food that will later be delivered by the ?Yellow Van? outreach programme, The Duchess asked to write empowering messages on the bananas to the women pic.twitter.com/v8QnjgF8N5
The meals will be handed out to the women working on Bristol’s streets this evening, and they’ll surely be touched to find Markle’s kind messages.
It should also be noted that bananas hold a special meaning in Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s relationship. They are Prince Harry’s favorite fruit and when rumors of them dating first surfaced, Markle cheekily posted a photo of two bananas spooning on her Instagram account (RIP).
And with that, we’re off to write encouraging mantras on our own bananas. Thanks for the fruit-spo, Meg.

Compare the ways in which gender is presented within ‘The Gun’ by Vicki Feaver and ‘Chainsaw versus the Pampas Grass’ by Simon Armitage.
The theme of Gender is presented strongly throughout ‘The Gun’ by Vicki Feaver as well as ‘Chainsaw versus the Pampas Grass’ written by Simon Armitage. The theme of gender is key to both of these pieces of literature as it has been in much poetry and prose for centuries. Both poems discuss male dominance and femininity through the use of symbols, personification, diction and connotations to discuss the deeper perception of both genders.
The first way that gender is portrayed is through the symbolism of the chainsaw and the gun. This is a key similarity between both poems as both the “gun” and “the chainsaw” are described with harsh, angry imagery and connotations of violence as well as death. This is because they are both symbolising masculinity and the stereotypical ‘testosterone filled’ male. Armitage uses violent and angry lexis as a way of describing the chainsaw as a violent weapon capable of causing harm. “Grinding its teeth”, “Instant rage”, “bloody desire, sweet tooth for the flesh of the face and bones underneath”. Similarly, Feaver writes, “casting a grey shadow” and “King of Death” to create an ominous tone. This relates to the “instant rage” of the chainsaw and the feeling that at any moment it could become an angry murder weapon. In terms of gender representation, both authors are portraying masculinity as hyper-aggressive with no regard for life. Feaver also uses male pronouns when describing the “King of Death” with “his black mouth” to represent men as something evil and villainous, much like the gun and the power it holds.
In ‘The Gun’ femininity and the female gender in general is disregarded as Feaver prefers instead to only focus on the harm that men can cause. Apart from the mention of “sex” and the “cooking”, Feaver doesn’t mention any need or want for women which shows how the power and control the gun gives takes the place of any real relationship or other pleasure. The reference to sex is important because it hints at dissatisfaction that the speaker and the subject feel. In contrast, Armitage does discuss femininity more thoroughly through the use of the pampas grass to portray women as prideful and weaker. “The pampas grass with its ludicrous feathers and flumes” and “Sunning itself” are the key quotes used to describe women. However, Armitage doesn’t go any near as in depth when describing women as he does with men. The fourth stanza is significantly shorter than the others perhaps to show a certain mysterious quality that women possess and that men don’t fully understand.
The anonymity of the speaker is also powerful as both speakers have a sense of power because of the objects that they possess and are able to control. Although the two poems are set from different perspective, we can assume based on their behaviour that the subjects are both male. Through this, we see the recurrent theme of men becoming “power crazy” and losing themselves. In ‘The Gun’ through a (most likely female) third person perspective we see a soother and wiser tone as if the speaker can already see what is going to happen from the moment the gun enters the house. “Bringing a gun into a house changes it.” This makes the poem not only menacing but also a cautionary tale as if the speaker is trying to warn others.
In conclusion, both poems centre around a female versus male contest. Through the use of the chainsaw and the gun we see masculinity being a passionate, angry power while the pampas grass and the speaker in “The Gun” express femininity as consistent and gentle. The use of the grass continuing to grow in “Chainsaw versus the Pampas Grass” also shows that male strength may not always win in the end.

BARCELONA – FC Barcelona will try to make the most of their 3-0 first-leg advantage when they take on Liverpool, who will be missing Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino, for the first berth in the UEFA Champions League final.
Besides Salah and Firmino, Liverpool will have to do without midfielder Naby Keita, while Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele has been sidelined due to injury.
Barça, led by star forward Lionel Messi, who scored twice in the first leg, will look for their 9th Champions League final and their sixth title and the first European title in four years.
Back then, in the 2014/2015 season, Barcelona clinched a triple of La Liga, Copa del Rey and UEFA Champions League titles, a dream that they are chasing again this season, having already secured the Spanish league title and being a win away from Spain’s cup title.
Barcelona is heading to the Anfield stadium with a big advantage, but they will have to deal with a lot of pressure at the English team’s renowned stronghold, often described as a 12th-player in addition to those on the pitch.
The performance Liverpool put in the first leg a week ago suggests that the English team will spare no effort and will try to impose the rhythm of the match, forcing the Spanish team to adapt to their approach.
It has already happened before at the Camp Nou stadium when Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde resorted to Arturo Vidal in a bid to match up to Liverpool’s power in the midfield at the expense of Arthur Melo.
In the first leg, Valverde counted on a three-man attacking lineup comprised of Philippe Coutinho, Luis Suarez and Messi.
With Dembele sidelined, Valverde has to decide whether to adopt the 4-4-3 formation or go for 4-4-2 and whether he is going to rely on the same midfielders.
If the match comes down to a midfield combat, Barcelona could face many problems while trying to set the pace and in this scenario, while Liverpool will try to move the ball faster onto the Spanish team’s half.
The Catalan team will seek out an early goal, as they did four years ago at the same stage of the championship when they prevailed over Bayern Munich in the first leg 3-0 and an early goal by Neymar in the second leg settled their nerves.
After the rest the regular starters were given a rest by Valverde on Saturday, they are all expected to play at the Anfield, with what playing system and whether Vidal will return to the starting lineup being the only questions left for the coach to answer.
The Chilean player is most likely to start, especially after Arthur Melo played the whole 90 minutes against Celta Vigo.
At the other end of the field, things seem to be more complicated for Klopp after the German coach said that both Firmino and Salah are not available for the match.
During the vital Premier League clash against Newcastle, Salah was hit in the head and had to leave the pitch on a stretcher, visibly hurt and in tears.
The worst possible scenario was confirmed on Monday when the coach said that the Egyptian player will be unable to take part in the match.
“It’s a concussion (for Salah), so that means he would not even be allowed to play. That’s it, that’s all,” the coach said during a press conference on the eve of the match.
“He feels OK, but it is not good enough from a medical point of view, that’s all. He is desperate and everything, but we cannot do it. That’s it,” he added.
Firmino, meanwhile, will continue on the sideline due to a muscle issue that kept him out of action for the past three games.
Both players have scored between them 42 goals and Klopp has to resort to players such as Daniel Sturridge who has scored only four goals this season and Divock Origi, who has found the back of the net five times.
The other option is to have Sturridge or Origi as a striker and inserting a fourth midfielder with Xherdan Shaquiri, whose role with the team has been reduced over the last few months.
Liverpool’s Naby Keita is also set to miss the game with an abductor injury he sustained in the first leg and will keep him on the sideline for at least two months.
Jordan Henderson, who was a substitute in the first leg, and James Milner are possible alternatives for the second leg.
Liverpool’s need for goals makes Alexander-Arnold the favorite to start at right back.
The Reds, who dominated the first leg but lacking the accuracy on the final touch, will be evoking epic wins at the Anfield stadium, where they scored three goals in the first 45 minutes of the first leg of the 2017/2018 Champions League quarterfinals.

Police in the town are clamping down on illegal parking and have issued 31 parking fines in the last month.
The majority of the tickets have been handed out in the last 10 days and police are warning that they will continue to target those who flout parking laws.
The figures were revealed at Monday night’s meeting of Hawick Community Council in the Lesser Town Hall, and one member is thrilled that police are taking action.
Speaking this week, Community Councillor Jim Little said: “I am delighted to hear that the police are targetting illegal parking. When the traffic warden finished I was concerned that there would be an increase in parking problems, so I am glad that the police are dealing with this. If this gets into the pages of the local press and people get to know that the police are handing out tickets they might think twice about taking a chance.”
And Hawick and Hermitage member George Turnbull agreed: “I am pleased that the police are being proactive in this. It is reassuring to know that those who think they can park illegally are being dealt with.”
Other councillors expressed concerns over parking issues in Oliver Place and at Teviot Medical Practice which may obstruct vehicles collecting and dropping off patients.
The police representative told Monday’s meeting that illegal parking is seen as a priority, potential problem areas will be patrolled regularly and they will continue to ticket offenders.

The Thursday red beans and rice special used to pack them in at Faye's Kitchen. But when International Paper closed its Moss Point mill last year, the diner across the street suffered. Faye's lunch crowd dropped by as much as 50 percent.
L.C. Triplett and his wife run the restaurant. "We've laid off three people already," Triplett said. "The next step will be closing down."
In the year since International Paper announced the mill had to close, former plant employees have had their share of problems. Moss Point resident Ralph Davis knows a number of the former workers.
"Friends of mine, people I know that depended on that mill for a living to support their families," Davis said, "they've had to get out and go somewhere else."
Davis serves on a Moss Point active citizens committee that's trying to breathe new life into the nearly vacant mill.
"There is a future for it," Davis said. "We don't know exactly what it is. But we have got a future."
Jackson County economic development leaders can't say what's in IP's future, because right now they don't know. What they can say is steps are being taken to eventually market the mill and its adjoining 300 acres of land, so it can once again create jobs for Jackson County.
George Freeland is the executive director of the Jackson County Economic Development Foundation. "In a general sense," Freeland said, "we can say that we are aggressively moving to reposition the site for economic development."
Freeland said it will be at least two years before anything happens at the Moss Point mill. The Tripletts hope that whenever something happens, they'll still be serving their lunchtime meals.
International Paper closed about the same time that Rohm and Haas announced it was leaving Moss Point. The closings caused Jackson County's unemployment rate to jump to 6.5 percent.

Mazda tries to make friends on Facebook with MX-5 discount
Mazda has announced it will be offering large discounts on its MX-5 sports car to Facebook users that 'check in' at one of five of the brand's dealerships.
Customers must check in at the showroom via the latest version of Facebook on their smartphone, click on 'claim the deal' and then present their voucher to the salesman to claim a whopping 20 percent discount on the latest MX-5.
The money off deal, which could see buyers claim more than £4,600 off the cost of a new car, is valid from today until 7 March but is only available at dealerships in Glasgow, Twickenham, Manchester, Exeter and Romford in Essex.
As further incentive to pop to one of the five dealerships – virtually if not in person – Mazda has also announced a competition to win an MX-5 Miyako special edition for a five month loan.
"Just by being one of Facebook's 26 million UK users you are suddenly entitled to some fantastic offers and 20 percent off Mazda's iconic sports car, a deal you cannot get anywhere else," said Mazda's UK marketing director, Claire Andrews.
The offer is all part of the newly launched 'Facebook Deals', which will list the best deals on offer in your local area. We reckon Mazda's offer could be the best one on there for some time.

By Jo Roberts
IT TOOK British singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock 20 years to become a Nick Drake fan. He was just 16 in 1969 when Drake, a shy British folk artist, released his first album, Five Leaves Left.
Hitchcock thought Drake ''was too soft''.
''It sounded a bit jazzy and breathy and orchestral,'' Hitchcock says. The teenage music fan was drawn more to music that had ''more of an edge to the voice'', such as Bob Dylan, the Velvet Underground, the Incredible String Band - artists who had all honed that ''edge'' through extensive shows.
''My theory is that with good rock singing, the voice develops a 'beak' to cut through shitty PA systems, so you develop that edge to your voice.''
Certainly it worked for Hitchcock, whose sneering nasal drawl first brought him fame in the late '70s with his punk/new-wave outfit the Soft Boys, and in more recent years as a crafter of dry-witted, surreal pop and regular visitor to Australia.
For Drake, however, a foray into live performance proved as fleeting as it was devastating. He played his gentle, autumnal folk pop at just six or seven shows to chattering, dismissive audiences. Utterly discouraged, he never played live again and retreated into a depressive fug. In 1974, with three largely ignored albums to his name - Five Leaves Left,Bryter Layter (1970) and Pink Moon (1972), Drake was found dead at his home in the English village of Tamworth-in-Arden from an overdose of antidepressants, aged just 26.
Hitchcock has now joined a cast of people - including his long-time friend and producer of Drake's first two albums, Joe Boyd - in presenting the tribute concert Way to Blue: The Songs of Nick Drake in Melbourne and Sydney.
The concert features many of the stars who brought the show's first incarnation to the Barbican in London in 2009, including British folk artist Vashti Bunyan (a contemporary of Drake now enjoying a career revival and whose debut album, 1970's Just Another Diamond Day, was also produced by Boyd), Irish singer Lisa Hannigan, former Scritti Politti singer Green Gartside, double bassist Danny Thompson (who played on Drake's albums) and Australian artists Shane Nicholson and Luluc.
The show's musical director Kate St John has another connection to Drake: the biggest Australian hit for her former band the Dream Academy, Life in a Northern Town (1985), was written about Drake. She was also involved in an earlier Drake tribute show with Boyd that was presented in 2001.
That first show came in a year of popularity resurgence for Drake. ''A skin too few'' - a saying used to describe an overly sensitive person - became the title of a beautiful 2001 documentary about Drake. It famously featured English singer Paul Weller contextualising the importance of Drake [to him at least] with the quote: ''If you went back to a girl's flat and you saw that she had a Nick Drake album, you'd think about marrying her.'' That same year, Volkswagen used the title song from Drake's third and final album in an advertisement. Selling fewer than 5000 copies when first released in 1972, Pink Moon - somewhat cruelly - took just three weeks after the first screening of the ad to sell a further 5000 copies.
Ten years on from then, Drake's name is now widely known and his artistry recognised as an influence on contemporary performers ranging from Belle & Sebastian to R.E.M., which recently disbanded.
It was through R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck's admiration of Drake that R.E.M. came to work with Boyd in 1985, recording their third album, Fables of the Reconstruction, with him. And through his friend Buck (who plays with Hitchcock's band the Venus 3) Hitchcock first met Boyd, when he came to visit them in the studio.
''I remember Peter Buck saying, 'Pink Moon, that's the scariest song ever' and I thought, 'Well, that's interesting.' I just started listening to [Drake] here and there and it just … started seeping into me.''
Hitchcock became a bona fide fan, even penning a song, I Saw Nick Drake, now the only non-Drake composition performed in Way to Blue.
''I get to sing it as the first encore,'' he says. ''It seems to be the right song for the occasion.''
In typical surreal Hitchcockian fashion, he elaborates. ''I suppose [Drake] was a bit like George Harrison: he was just a bit subtle, it wasn't something you could stick on the bonnet of a car and drive around town with. It didn't have a beak, it wasn't designed to cut through anything, it's just there like some sort of glorious poached egg, luxuriating.''
Hopefully that would have brought a smile to Drake's face.
Way to Blue: The Songs of Nick Drake, at the Melbourne Recital Centre, November 13-15.

I don't classify sex work as work because I don't think that consent to sex can be bought. And really, if it's just like any ol' job, why is it the only industry where you need exit programs if you want to leave?
However, I agree 100% that police action against sex workers (even of the "rescue" type) is never ever the way to go. Punish the people buying sex, not the people who feel they have no other choice but to sell it.
@Evan Hughes We already have an inconvenient and chaotic system, because we can almost never agree on what's correct. However, I can definitely see the appeal of having a set of rules to follow.
@Evan Hughes Why are we so willing to defend something as "correct" when it sounds strange and unnatural to most native speakers? Language changes, and I think it's changing in the "it was not me" direction. I'm literally okay with that. (Bad pun! Sorry!)
@Ellie Yes. Just yes.
@klemay And for the record, it's entirely possible to have your education paid for and not be an asshole about it. I'm not going to assume that someone who comes from money is a jerk. But some people just have a sense of entitlement. The rest of us have a right to be annoyed by it.
@jolie It's not an "us" vs. "them." I suppose I shouldn't have assumed people would know what I was talking about since I didn't even mention my school, though. There is a population at my school who fit into the "trust fund babies" category and they are truthfully obnoxious and inconsiderate (to the community around our school, to the services workers at our school, etc). They are not the majority of the student body, but to the community, it seems like they are. It's frustrating to be lumped in with them when I am a hard-working, respectful person.
@Charismatic Megafauna I am also from NH, and from now on, when anyone tells me they have a house there (everyone has a house there!), I'm going to take your "NO WAY, so do I!!!!"
@jolie Excuse me for being frustrated that I had to work much harder than most of my peers to get here but I'm still discounted as a brat anyway.
I realize that there is still a *lot* of privilege in going to school where I go. But mommy and daddy aren't paying my way through, and it's frustrating when people assume that they are.
I've experienced something similar at my school. I think the worst part is when you get, "Oh, you go to [expensive private university]?" and they assume you're a privileged asshole. Because, no, I worked my ass off to get here and I have to put up with those privileged assholes every day.


The 'Duck' semi-automatic clutch completely removes the requirement for left leg operation in a manual vehicle.
A small lever on the gear knob controls the clutch pedal allowing complete operation of the clutch for the driver.
Extremely suitable where an automatic version of the vehicle is not available. Although in essence manual, the 'Duck' is 'intelligent', being computer-controlled, and performs a true fly-by-wire control of the clutch; for instance knowing where the 'bitepoint' of the clutch is and automatically finding it on slight release of the lever.
Full clutch control is performed extremely naturally.
- Hand only gear change
- No modifications to original vehicle parts
- Vehicle can be driven conventionally
The Syncrodrive Semi-Autonatic clutch system is not suitable for all vehicles. Please contact us to discuss your requirements & conformation of suitabilty for your vehicle


A collaboration of professors at SICE has earned a critical NSF grant.
The National Science Foundation awarded a $995,000 grant to develop powerful, data-driven tools to support the reskilling and upskilling of tens of millions of U.S. workers whose jobs are being transformed by artificial intelligence and automation.
This pioneering project, "Convergence Accelerator Phase I (RAISE): Analytics-Driven Accessible Pathways To Impacts-Validated Education (ADAPTIVE)," is led by Distinguished Professor Katy Börner at the School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering (SICE), Indiana University. Börner’s team will collaborate closely with Xiaozhong Liu, Associate Professor of Information and Library Science at SICE, Professor Ariel Anbar, Arizona State University, Professor Martin Storksdieck of Oregon State University, Northeastern University’s Kemi Jona, and Michael Richey from Boeing Engineering, to pilot meaningful data visualizations and analytics about the available learning opportunities and credentials that will help workers make informed, labor market aligned reskilling and upskilling choices.
Specifically, the project will prototype a freely available career recommender "GPS" platform that supports a life-long trajectory of skill development and application. Learning analytics and outcomes data from course and credential offerings and real-time labor market data will be used to provide “honest signals” for learners who want to maximize return on investment of time, money, and effort throughout their career.
The team is comprised of data and learning scientists, economists, education researchers, and course designers. Partners include The Boeing Company, Burning Glass Technologies, L’Space, edX, O*Net, Emsi, The Open Syllabus Project, Credential Engine, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
“This project advances our collective understanding of learning in the flow of work and develops new, data-rich tools to help learners and education providers navigate the rapidly changing labor market,” Börner said. Details can be found at the NSF website for this project.
The Indiana University School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering is one of the world’s largest, broadest, and best technology and information schools. SICE prepares students to thrive in today’s jobs and adapt as technology careers change in the decades ahead.

Welcome to A Life in Writing. I am Zehra Cranmer, a London based writer and critic, a mother, a wife and nature lover. I write about all these subjects whilst trying to lead a slower more meaningful life whilst dreaming about owning land one day to live among goats and veg. Gentle parenting , connection & simplicity living where possible are key elements to our lives. This is what we are trying to achieve in the most authentic way.
I wrote a book Among Tigers Wild in my early twenties it’s sitting in my draw whilst attempting to finish my second novel Between The Waves and raise children at the same time. I write book reviews for Avrupa Times which you can read here also.
I am interested in the creative process in all forms of art, writing in particular. I am also interested in the way nature inspires the artist.
I believe in gentle parenting and seasonal celebrations.Teaching my children how to tread gently and take care of our planet is just one of the jobs I take seriously. Although they do not tend a Steiner education, we’ve adopted many of its values as seen on the blog and on twitter. I believe in letting children be children; letting them be outside in nature as much as possible and open to all that life has to teach them.
I wouldn’t call this a lifestyle blog but it is about my life (and family’s) my writing and motherhood.

A judge has called on the Crown Prosecution Service to expand its review of disclosure failures after a man spent six months in prison accused of carrying out an acid attack only to be freed on the first day of his trial.
Anthony Brack, 51, would have faced up to 16 years in jail if convicted, but when the case eventually came to trial on Monday the prosecution offered no evidence at Liverpool crown court.
The judge, Steven Everett, criticised both the CPS and the police after evidence emerged belatedly showing the victim had a medical history of burning herself with bleach and CCTV footage undermined her account of events.
Everett said he was astonished that the medical evidence had not been seen earlier, adding: “On the face of it, it seriously undermined the case.”
The case, reported by the Liverpool Post, is the latest in a series of failures by the police and CPS to disclose crucial evidence to the defence ahead of trials.
Most of the previous high-profile cases involved rape or sexual assault charges that were dropped after data downloaded from mobile phones contradicted the victims’ accounts.
However, a number of other types of cases have collapsed recently, showing the severe strains on the criminal justice system chiefly due to the massive volumes of digital evidence now associated even with routine cases.
Everett told the court: “Disclosure is a major issue as we all know and has been for a little while following various acquittals to people charged with rape.
“I am beginning to have real concerns that what really happened was that there was a review for rape and sexual assault allegations and the review was limited to that.
“I don’t know if that is right, but if that is right then the review was seriously flawed … the CPS and police will have to look at other case notes where there are assaults – not just sexual assault.”
Suzanne Gower, the managing director of the Centre for Criminal Appeals, which investigates miscarriages of justice, said: “This case is a stark reminder that failures by police and prosecutors to turn over vital evidence are not limited to rape cases.”
A CPS spokesperson said: “We keep all cases under continual review. Following receipt of further information from the police at the start of the trial we concluded there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction and stopped the prosecution.
“We note the comments of the judge and will work with the police to review the handling of this case and any lessons which can be learned.”

Shop / home / Ashleigh's Garden
I’ve met my match in Alison Sloane. She’s as opinionated as I am. Considering Baby’s Breath? Go elsewhere. And she counsels her brides that a centerpiece shouldn’t have to cost more than $50. She’s the Shoreline’s only greenflorist: her roses are sustainably farmed, using insects instead of pesticides to produce perfect blooms. With two degrees in fine art and a background in Dutch floral design (no foam for her), her full-blown arrangements are masterful.
Word of mouth and a hopeless devotion to her brides keeps her wedding business booked well in advance. But flowers are not the only reason to pay Ashleigh’s a visit. A roomful of laugh-out-loud greeting cards, a small but interesting selection of antiques and, as far as I know, the ONLY place to find Harbor Sweets fantastic chocolates from Salem, MA. Alison recues parrots, too, and twenty or so provide some amusing background chirping to your flower browsing. This place is worth a visit.

Paul Heyman is famous for not making predictions, but for revealing spoilers. Heyman tweeted before the Finn Balor vs. Pete Dunne NXT Title match at NXT Takeover: Vengeance Day. Finn Balor just teased the return of the Demon King.
Heyman said, #ICYMI – @TripleH has very high expectations for these two @WWENXT superstars #Vengeance #WeAreNXT #Spoiler – their title match will over-deliver tonight!”
Triple H recently said about Dunne’s friend Pat McAfee and his NXT absence, “Pat is one of the most successful… I hate to put a title on what he does because I feel like it’s limiting to him, but like you say… podcaster, media personality, sports world personality… almost every weekend that I look online during football season Pat seems to be trending on the weekends. His coverage of football, his association with FanDuel, just everything that he does.”
McAfee responded on his radio show, “I was talked about in the wrestling community yesterday by Triple H, actually, about my future plans. It was interesting. I mean, all very nice things he said there, but me learning about being written off TV did happen live on the air. He’s a very nice man, Mr. H, for everything he said. He did say, basically, like, ‘Pat has been very busy. Kind of a fat a– right now. He’s going to have to get back into shape,’ basically is what he said. And then maybe we’ll think about something.”
“I’ve not heard anything, by the way,” McAfee continued. “Have not heard anything. No ideas. But I do believe the first step would be to have the diet match the amount of conditioning I’ve been doing in the Oculus. And when that happens, look out.”

Adam West knew how to embrace the goofiness of the 1960s series "Batman" — and he carried that campy attitude forward in his later years.
The show wasted no time introducing its bizarre style — in the 1966 premiere episode, viewers got the first taste of "The Batusi," a dance where Batman waved his fingers over his eyes in the style of the Watusi, a popular dance at the time.
West even took to the beach for a surf-off against his enemy the Joker in one episode, donning swim trunks over his regular Batsuit.
After playing up the level of nonsense on "Batman," West found a second act in appearances on "Family Guy" as a fictional version of himself in the role of Mayor of Quahog.
West also made cameos in the "The Simpsons," "30 Rock," "The Big Bang Theory," "Fairly OddParents," "Robot Chicken," "Futurama" and "King of Queens"— commonly playing himself as ex-Batman.
"He knew comedy," creator of "Family Guy," Seth MacFarlane, said in a statement, noting his sense of fun was "undeniable."
"A true gentleman who delighted in making himself look silly," writer and producer of "Family Guy," David Zuckerman, wrote on Twitter. "My first (and funniest) Batman & the greatest Mayor of Quahog."
Here are some of his funniest, campiest, and just plain ridiculous moments:
The Batsui was the perfect introduction for audiences to get a taste of the campy show.
What better way to illustrate that this superhero doesn't take himself seriously then having him dance around in his cape to get information from the Riddler's assistant.
"I had a chance to create the dance craze of the country — the Batusi. When Jill St. John fell into the atomic pile and was cremated and Batman had a little tear and she was a go-go dancer and Batman said, 'What a way to go-go,' it worked," West previously said in an interview about the moment.
Adam West the Mayor of Quahog
Adam West portraying a version on himself on "Family Guy" just proved that he didn't miss a beat as he got older.
In an episode about hazing, West (who is still the Mayor on the show) spanks Chris Griffin with a paddle as part of bullying freshmen as "No More Mr. Nice Guy" plays in the background.
Forget Batman, it's Catman.
West played a knock-off version of Batman on the Nickelodeon children series "Fairly OddParents." He wasn't doing a good job at being a superhero, so he needed the help of main character Timmy and his fairy godparents to help him through rough times.
Fighting a tiger and henchmen dressed as kittens
Yes, Batman fights off a tiger in this one — and it isn't even the best part.
In the "Purr-fect Crime," Catwoman ridiculously dresses up her henchmen in striped costumes and cat ears. She also unassumingly sends Commissioner Gordon a kitten ... as a threat.
Adam West on himself
You're not funny if you can't laugh at yourself.
West has made plenty of comments outside of his on-screen appearances about himself and his career that have made him admirable to the public, including subtly shading the new superhero flicks.
"How many actors have a shot at being a part of something that became a part of pop culture? It's been very rewarding. I'm not getting the 20 million bucks for the new movies, but at least I'm getting warmth and recognition from people wherever I go."
Adam West as himself on "The Simspons" with the return of "The Batusi"
Back with the Batusi. The dance really was a craze — so much so that West made a cameo appearance on the cartoon series to bring it back in 1992.
Bart and Lisa deny that West is the real Batman, prompting him to recall his glory days.
"Why doesn't Batman dance anymore?" he asks before busting out the moves.


A joint venture, with leading partner ITINERA S.p.A is the contractor that will build the new Danish Storstrøm Bridge.
Dieseko Group provided the joint venture with an OEM-built compacting hammer, ‘the frog’, which will stabilise the gravel layer for the foundation construction. Recently Dieseko successfully commissioned this machine at a testing area in Denmark.
The new 3.84 km Storstrøm Bridge will connect Zealand and the island Falster via Masnedø. The Storstrøm Bridge will become the third largest bridge in Denmark upon the completion of construction in 2022. The new cable-stay bridge will carry a two-lane highway, a bicycle and pedestrian path and a double-track electric railway.

The first is week on us!
Anyone interested in a first-hand look at our programs is welcome to try two classes on us. All classes are age-appropriate and comprise both novice and veteran martial artists. No experience or uniform is required. Contact us today and set up the best training opportunity for you.
Karate (Empty/Hand) is a form of martial arts indigenous to the islands of Okinawa, Japan. Okinawa spawned a form of self-defense using all parts of the body (e.g. hands, feet, knees and elbows). Eventually, it systematized into an art encompassing warm-up exercises, striking arts, grappling movements, two-person drills, forms, weight training and body conditioning to name a few.
Blue Dragon Martial Arts focuses on Goju-Ryu Karate, one of the original styles of Karate. While training in Okinawa, Sensei Allain studied with the system’s primary teacher, Dai-Sensei Meitoku Yagi (1912-2003), and was directed by Sensei Yagi to open a school to share the teachings of Meibukan.
Self Defense · Self Confidence · Self Control · Fun to Learn
Designed to improve mental and physical fitness, these challenging and diverse body weight exercise sessions comprised of warm-ups, skills training, workouts and stretching help students maximize their physical capabilities. Students are always reminded to work at a level appropriate to their own ability at all times.
Cardiovascular & Anaerobic Health · Weight Loss · Strength Development · Heightened Reflexes
Our self defense course has evolved from Sensei Allain’s experience and research both as a police officer and martial artist. This part of our program is an important adjunct to Karate as it allows students to immediately access tools necessary for self-defense. It provides an easy-to-learn and systematic approach that should not change over a student’s lifetime. It is complete with theories about mental, physical and emotional defense. All age-appropriate sessions allow students a certain amount of critical confidence when faced with a threatening situation.

I know Katie Price has a lot of fans out there. I just don’t happen to be one of them. It’s not that I don’t think she’s pretty. She is, for sure. It’s more that her “in your face” attention grabbing ways kind of put me off. I’m not a fan of that kind of celebrity. In these photos, we see Katie strutting her stuff as she attends a photo call to launch her new Venture ‘KP Rocks’ in London and she looks just as good as she usually does while still bothering me just as much as she usually does. I don’t think Katie would be mad at me though. She has more than enough fans to keep her happy without having to add me to the list.
She is very pretty, but there is just something about her that strikes me odd. I am not really sure what it is. She has a great body and looks hotter than Hell in these photos that is for sure.
i pass on her, another self obsessed women with an ego even bigger than her own boobs
I have to agree with Lee on this, she is not good looking one bit. She sort of looks manly. That was a turn off right there. And I would say that she does have a big ego as well. Not really a fan of the pics. Sorry.

RECCE IAR v1
Infantry Automatic Rifleman is a concept adopted and used by the USMC. Light weight, accurate and capable of handling heat associated with the role of Auto-Rifleman. The M27 has become a beloved weapon in the Marine corps arsenal. This is our DI version of that upper.
Our goal was to create a version of the M27 IAR upper that would address issues with the M27, addressing heat and building in the ability to tune the upper for better performance with Suppressors.
We designed our Heat Mitigation System to fit a 16″ Mid-length SOCOM HBar barrel and straight gas tube. Just like our RECCE LMG upper line, the IAR v1’s barrel and gas system is incased with our 6061 Aluminum Heats Sinks and Copper/Nickel Alloy gas tube Heat Sink.
The SOCOM hbar paired with our HMS system is a game changer, in testing we have seen insane numbers of heat reduction. Effectively putting this upper comfortably into the Auto-rifleman role without sacrificing accuracy or reliability of the system.
Equipped with the excellent Riflespeed Gas Controls, this upper is easily tuned for ammo, suppressor choice, buffer weights etc. Extremely capable of adapting to any use you see fit. Duty grade, Rugged, Tool free adjustment, and minimal maintenance required, Riflespeed is the best choice for Adjustable Gas blocks bar none.
Optional PARA Mod. Is a Cut/Crown/ Threading service option. This makes the Standard RECCE IAR go from a 16″ Barrel to either 12.5″ or 13.5″ barrel.
RECCE IAR v1 Production 2024. All Orders placed are built to order. Uppers should ship 4-8 weeks from date of order.
Thank you for your patience.
