African Americans have lost, by some measures, two generations of gains since the onset of the “Silent Depression” in the early 2000s. So profound is the decline, “nothing but the most wrenching and thorough social transformation – something like a revolution – offers any hope of eventual economic parity with Whites.” But the “Obama Effect” convinces many Blacks that, despite the evidence, the African American condition has actually improved under Obama.” It is a fatal delusion.
In the soon to be released movie “The Obama Effect,” the protagonist, played by Charles S. Dutton, has a heart attack. “Facing the end,” intones the trailer voice-over, “it was time for a new beginning.” Dutton’s character becomes obsessed with the idea of a Black president, and throws himself into the Obama campaign, neglecting all else.
I’m sure the movie has a happy ending, but in the real life and history of Black people, “The Obama Effect” has been disastrous. Black economic progress is not just at an end; the African American economic condition has so deteriorated, nothing but the most wrenching and thorough social transformation – something like a revolution – offers any hope of eventual economic parity with Whites.
The latest Census Bureau figures show that the median White household is now 22 times more wealthy than Black households. White families are worth more than $110,000, compared to just under $5,000 for Blacks.
The gap has widened, since 2009, when Whites registered only 20 times more wealth than Blacks. The State of the Dream Report for that year described Blacks as experiencing a kind of “Silent Depression” – one that is “unnoticed, unacknowledged and unaddressed – and yet the evidence is striking.” Back then, more than three years ago, 30 percent of African American households had no wealth at all, or negative wealth, less than nothing, and the gap between Black and White incomes was proportionately larger than it was back in 1968, the year Dr. Martin Luther King was assassinated.
And now, almost four years after the Wall Street meltdown and President Obama’s election – and going on a decade since the Black Depression began in the early 2000s – African Americans are in even worse shape. There is absolutely nothing on the horizon that would reverse the steady relative deterioration of the Black economic condition, absent massive, targeted government intervention. The Republicans aren’t going to do that – and neither will President Obama, of his own volition. He avoids even the whiff of targeted federal intervention that might tend to favor Blacks. It’s against his philosophy, as he has repeatedly stated since the Spring of 2009, when Obama declared that a “rising tide” will lift all boats and that Blacks should not make special pleadings. Even when the Congress provided him with $6.7 billion targeted at those worst hit by the housing catastrophe – and the certainly means Black folks – Obama’s Treasury Department let most of the money sit there, unspent.
I would call Obama a fraud – except for the fact that Black folks mostly fooled themselves into believing that Obama’s success was their own. As a number of polls and studies have shown, even as Blacks were losing two generations of economic ground, large numbers of African Americans believed that the Black condition had dramatically improved under Obama. Last week’s numbers confirm once again that the Black condition is only getting worse. The Obama Effect might have saved the fictitious Charles Dutton movie character’s life, but it’s made African Americans blind and deaf, seemingly incapable of putting up a fight. The real Obama Effect can destroy a people.

Are you at the crossroad of letting go or holding on? Letting go is never easy and holding on holds us back from all the possibilities available. I know this to my core, but I realized it is okay not to let go. Well, not to let go too soon.
I read a book a few months ago called “Tuesdays with Morrie” by Mitch Albom. It is an incredible book, and it is worth the read. However, a line in the book has caused a shift in the way I look at letting go.
Morrie told Mitch, “Don’t let go too soon, but don’t hang on too long.”
Reading those words spoke to me most profoundly. And now, instead of just letting go, I appreciate the art of holding on. Of course, I have held on too long in many situations, with clients, projects, and relationships. And I am sure that even with what I now know, I will sometimes hold on for a little longer than I should. Or, in some cases, I will let go too soon. But I figured it out. Instead of letting go as quickly as I may want to, I now practice first holding on.
How does letting go and holding on affect our lives?
Rumi said, “Life is a balance of holding on and letting go.” And that is true. I have realized that in our lives, our choices come down to one of two things: to let go or hold on. It may not always be as neat and tidy as to let go or to hold on. But when we are in seasons of challenges, we become confused. We are often faced with decisions such as—should we hold on to a relationship or should we let go, should we find a new job or stay where we are, and the list goes on. But the fact is we are faced with should I let go. Or should I hold on?
We are sometimes at the juncture of letting go and refusing to hold on, or we hold on too tightly, incapable of letting go. However, I understand that letting go and holding on are connected actions we must practice in harmony.
How do we know when to hold on [but not for too long] and when to let go [but not too soon]?
Sometimes we will let go too soon, while other times, we will hold on for dear life. And in both situations, we will question our decisions. Letting go too soon often forces us to question our choices, and we might find ourselves battling with the “what ifs.” On the other hand, hanging on for dear life is destructive and keeps us stuck in bad situations, which is emotionally and mentally draining. But to get to a place of knowing which we MUST choose, we MUST look within and without.
Letting go is unnatural for most of us. It takes courage to have a conscious awareness to concede that we are holding on to something that is no longer serving us. Letting go is hard. A part of it is that many of us feel we have failed or have lost something meaningful. It is also possible that we have worked so hard that letting go feels like we are losing. There is also the aspect of convenience and the possibility that the thing we should let go of serves a different purpose. It is comfortable for us, and it fulfills a need within us.
Look within and without.
The best way I have found that gets me to a place where I know I should let go or hold on is to tune in. I believe the answers are always within, but we often neglect to look or tune in. So many times, I held on for dear life, but it was because I was too afraid to let go. Whether consciously or unconsciously, the essence is I was scared to let go. And we are all there at some point in our lives.
From my experience, I urge you to examine yourself objectively and consciously. It is the only way to know what is true for you in every decision. For example, when I look at a situation closely, if I am comfortable and in a state of peacefulness, I know that I can hold on a little longer. I see the problem has earned more time. But when I am in a state where I feel uncomfortable, anxious, and Depleted. A place where I am drained and unable to function. Then I know that holding on is causing me pain, and it is time that I let go.
When we look inward, we must also investigate the outward situation. What does it look like? Has it become toxic? Is it stagnant? Have we given the situation or the person[s] involved several chances?
It is often apparent when a situation or relationship dies, but we try to revive it in vain. It is valuable to hang on when there is space left for hanging on. However, if the situation has reached its limits, and we feel we are repeating destructive patterns, it is time to let go.
So where are you? Are you in your season of holding on or letting go? Comment below.

Shia LaBeouf, 27, has had a very interesting month lately. He was busted for plagiarizing someone else’s work for which he hired a plane to skywrite an apology, he was called smelly by his fellow actors on set for not showering, and now he has admitted to sending pictures of his penis to someone in the industry!!
In order to land his role in the sexually explicit film Nymphomaniac: Volume I & II, Shia was asked by the film’ production team to do something to prove he was fearless enough for such a role…send of pic of his junk! And he did!!
“The first info we got — and I’ll never forget this because my entire team reacted with such fear — the first request from the production end, not Lars, was for pictures of my penis,” Shia revealed this week in a video interview released by the film’s production company.
This isn’t the first time Shia was in the “Beouf” (wink!) though. Last June, the former Disney child star went full frontal in a video for Icelandic band Sigur Ros’ “Fjogur Piano.” That video definitely helped convince the film director Lars von Trier that he was right for Nymphomaniacs.
“Nymphomaniac,” also stars Uma Thurman, Christian Slater and Charlotte Gainsbourg. The movie will be released in two parts with Part I due out on March 21st and Part II due out on April 3rd.

Three Lebanon, Pa. men were arrested June 27 following a traffic stop on U.S. Route 113 in Georgetown.
According to the Georgetown Police Department, a broadcast was put out by dispatch that the subjects in a vehicle traveling on northbound U.S. Route 113 were reportedly smoking illegal narcotics. Police said the vehicle was observed by a patrolman on U.S. Route 113 in the area of N. Bedford Street. Police said as the patrolman attempted to catch up to the vehicle, the operator, 20-year-old Jordan Vasquez, made an abrupt lane change in front of another vehicle. Police said a traffic stop was initiated and officers could smell a strong odor of marijuana emitting from the vehicle. Police said a subsequent search was performed on the vehicle and the officers located about 64 grams of suspected marijuana, several pipes allegedly used to smoke marijuana, and digital scales. Kenneth Hernley, 18, and Mykola Keener, 20, were passengers in the vehicle and police said some of the suspected marijuana and paraphernalia belonged to them.
Police said all three were charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. They were released on an unsecured bond with a future court date.


Braves win 13th straight, down Nationals
Washington, DC – The Atlanta Braves just keep on winning.
Jason Heyward broke a tie in the eighth inning with an RBI single and Justin Upton followed with a two-run double to cap a 3-for-4 game in Atlanta's 13th consecutive victory, 6-3 over the Washington Nationals to complete a three-game sweep.
Thanks to this whitewash, its second straight of the Nationals in Washington, Atlanta, trying for its first division title since 2005, now sits a comfortable 15 1/2 games ahead of the Nats for first place in the NL East.
Upton also homered for Atlanta, which has swept its past four series and 11 total this season, and is now 16-4 since the All-Star break. B.J. Upton had four hits.
"We knew they are fighting to get back in it," said Upton. "We knew that they weren't going to be a pushover here and these were some tough games that we had to play."
Kris Medlen (9-10) won his third straight start as he gave up three runs on three hits with a walk and six strikeouts over seven innings. He also drove in a run.
Jayson Werth hit a two-run home run and scored twice, while Ian Desmond also had an RBI for the Nationals, who have lost four straight and six of eight. Jordan Zimmermann went just four innings and gave up two runs on seven hits.
"It's been a tough season all around but we're going to do what we know how to do and that's come out here on Friday and do our best to win," said Werth.
With the score tied in the eighth, the Braves went ahead with a two-out rally. Andrelton Simmons doubled to right off Ryan Mattheus (0-1) and Joey Terdoslavich followed with a walk. After Ian Krol took over on the mound, Heyward singled to right to score one run and Justin Upton's hit to left scored two more for a 6-3 lead.
David Carpenter pitched a scoreless eighth while Craig Kimbrel left the bases loaded in the ninth to pick up his 36th save of the season. Wilson Ramos flied out to right to end the game.
The first inning saw Atlanta get on the board as Heyward led off with a double and came home two batters later on Freddie Freeman's single to center.
In the fourth, the Braves pushed another run across on Medlen's sacrifice fly with the bases loaded.
Medlen went through the Washington lineup unblemished the first time around and got the first two outs of the fourth, but Bryce Harper worked a walk for the Nationals' first runner of the game and Werth followed with his 16th home run of the season.
The score stayed 2-2 until the seventh when Upton homered to left for his 21st of the season, but the Nats tied the game again in the home half on a run- scoring groundout from Desmond.
The Braves are on their longest winning streak since ripping off 15 straight from April 16-May 2, 2000 ... Atlanta hosts Miami for three games starting on Friday ... Washington welcomes Philadelphia for a three-game set beginning on Friday ... The Braves have taken 10 of 13 from the Nationals this season ... Atlanta batted 4-for-12 with runners in scoring position and left 11 on base.

By Paige Rohe
Paige Rohe is assistant director, news and information, of the Carter Center’s Office of Public Information.
A torrential rain began in Monrovia, Liberia, causing the power to flicker and the Internet to shut down, but Georgia Institute of Technology professor Dr. Ellen Zegura didn’t let the disruption stop the computer and software training session she was holding with Liberia’s first class of mental health clinicians.
Overcoming challenges is one of the foundations of Georgia Tech’s Computing for Good (C4G) initiative, through which students and faculty explore computing solutions for the world’s most urgent social problems.
“We’re all familiar with the impact of computing on things like business productivity in the developed world, but I think we are just starting to see the ways that technology can have impact on the developing world,” says Dr. Zegura, professor and chair of Georgia Tech’s School of Computer Science. “Our C4G work with The Carter Center in Liberia is a fantastic opportunity for us to take some theories of what might work in an extremely technologically limited setting and actually apply them on the ground.”
Since 2010, Georgia Tech has collaborated with the Carter Center’s Mental Health Program Liberia to provide the software and support that the Center and the Liberian government need to monitor the nation’s progress in building a sustainable mental health care system. The Carter Center’s five-year project in Liberia is training a cadre of local mental health clinicians and working to reduce stigma and discrimination against mental illnesses.

A computer services business in Monrovia, Liberia.
One of the world’s poorest nations, Liberia still is recovering from a brutal 14-year civil war that ended in 2003. Because millions of Liberians suffer from mental illnesses but have virtually nowhere to turn to receive cost-effective treatments, the Liberian government has made improving access to mental health services a priority. However, one of the major challenges of this effort has been for the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare to identify where the greatest areas of need are and how to most effectively use resources to address those needs.
“Georgia Tech really has helped The Carter Center and Liberia to leapfrog over technological challenges that would have delayed our ability to achieve our goals or diverted our limited funding from other important activities,” says Shelly Terrazas, assistant director for the Carter Center’s mental health project in Liberia, who is herself an alumnus of Georgia Tech. “Georgia Tech’s support has been invaluable as we seek to prevent unnecessary suffering among some of the world’s most vulnerable people.”
Dr. Zegura and her C4G team of undergraduate and graduate students spent months designing software that allows the Center and the Liberian government to anonymously track patient outcomes to evaluate the clinician training program and conduct health surveillance and monitoring. Her team also extensively researched computers, smartphones, and other devices to see which would be most appropriate for the country’s uncertain electricity supply and extremely humid and hot tropical climate.
Careful consideration was taken in how to design these computer-based patient evaluation tools so they could be used easily by the new mental health clinicians, many of whom had limited or no previous experience working with computers. In addition, understanding that many of the clinicians will work in very isolated and rural areas, Georgia Tech created an online tool for the clinicians to stay connected with one another, remotely support each other, and brainstorm options for difficult patient cases.
Georgia Institute of Technology School of Computer Science Chair Dr. Ellen Zegura spent hours training Liberia’s first class of 21 mental health clinicians to use specially designed software and custom Hewlett-Packard laptops to help The Carter Center and the Liberian government track progress in their efforts to build a sustainable mental health care system.
Not one to rest on her laurels, Dr. Zegura is busy planning the next step of the project now that the clinicians are deployed to the field and using the technology she and her team worked so hard to provide.
“I am excited about the next four years of this project and how Computing for Good can help The Carter Center and its partners not only do good, but also how we can contribute to a greater understanding of how these technologies can be used around the world,” says Dr. Zegura.
In August 2011, Dr. Zegura participated in the graduation ceremonies of the first class of Carter Center-trained Liberian mental health clinicians, handing each of the new graduates custom laptops provided by The Carter Center. Dr. Zegura plans to continue to work with The Carter Center to evaluate the use of these tools as the Center completes its mental health work in Liberia over the next four years.

PLAYS: THE BLACK EYED
Four Arab women from across the ages meet in the afterlife. As these characters – who include the Biblical Delilah and a secular modern Arab-American - struggle to come to terms with their lives and their choices, this shockingly funny play skewers traditional views on sex, family, and terrorism.
World premiere at the Magic Theatre (Director: Jessica Heidt), European premiere in Greek translation at Theater Fournos of Athens (Director: Takis Tzamargias), and off-Broadway premiere at New York Theatre Workshop in 2007 (Director: Sam Gold)
“A gorgeously conceived and realized drama…[Shamieh’s] theatrical imagination, in its agility and its urgency, brings to mind Tony Kushner, whose faith in eloquence as an instrument of change is echoed here.”
~The New Yorker
“Shamieh’s writing is powerful! Violence haunts the four Palestinian women occupying an anteroom of the afterlife...these souls in Samuel Beckett-like transit are "The Black Eyed" which happens to be the title of Betty Shamieh's provocative theater piece.” ~International Herald Tribune
“Even though the women in [Shamieh’s} play have each either suffered or perpetrated horrific deeds, there’s plenty of humor and even whimsy as they sort out identities and tell their stories. Shamieh’s poetic text and vibrant performers depict a spectrum of vivid shades.”
“From its first words, Shamieh's play grabs you and won't let go.”
“There's an intriguing evenhandedness to [Shamieh’s] worldview. "Black Eyed" may take its name from the houris of Islamic heaven, but the afterlife where these women meet is full of Jews, Christians and Buddhists, too.”
~San Francisco Chronicle
“This play by Palestinian-American Betty Shamieh is a chillingly beautiful piece about the relationship between violence and seduction.
“Ms. Shamieh’s writing is thoughtful, her perspective informed.”
~The New York Times
“A skillfully written play about "unanswered questions" and "unquestioned answers" that is deceptively cute, funny and entertaining without ever undercutting the seriousness of its issues of violence, heroism and gender…there's an abundance of quirky, off-beat charm in The Black Eyed, which makes its effectiveness as a serious exploration of humanity's use of violence as a means of obtaining justice all the more striking.”

It’s time to explore the latest cabinet trends that are making waves in interior design. Cabinets play a crucial role in both functionality and aesthetics, providing storage solutions while enhancing the overall look of a space. Let’s dive into the exciting cabinet trends that are shaping the year.
Minimalistic and Sleek Designs:
Clean lines and minimalistic designs continue to dominate the cabinet trend. Homeowners are leaning towards sleek, handleless cabinet doors that create a seamless and streamlined appearance. These minimalistic cabinets not only exude a contemporary feel but also promote a sense of calm and tranquility within a space. Incorporating minimalist designs in your cabinetry can help create an open and uncluttered look, making the room feel more spacious.
Bold Colors and Contrasting Finishes:
While minimalism is on the rise, bold colors and contrasting finishes are making a strong comeback in cabinet design. Homeowners are increasingly opting for cabinets in deep, rich hues like navy blue, emerald green, and charcoal gray to add a touch of drama and sophistication to their interiors. Mixing and matching different finishes, such as matte and gloss, or combining wood with metal accents, allows for an eclectic yet harmonious design scheme.
Eco-consciousness continues to shape design choices, and cabinets are no exception. Homeowners are increasingly seeking sustainable cabinet materials that align with their environmentally-friendly values. Natural materials like bamboo, reclaimed wood, and FSC-certified lumber are gaining popularity, as they provide a warm and earthy aesthetic while minimizing the carbon footprint. Additionally, water-based finishes and low-VOC paints are being used to ensure healthier indoor air quality.
Smart Storage Solutions:
Efficient storage solutions are essential for maintaining an organized and clutter-free home. Innovative cabinet features are taking center stage, making use of every inch of available space. Customizable drawer dividers, pull-out shelves, and hidden compartments are becoming increasingly popular. Homeowners are also embracing vertical storage options, such as floor-to-ceiling cabinets and tall pantry units, to maximize storage capacity without sacrificing style.
Mixed Materials and Textures:
To create visual interest and add depth to cabinetry, designers are incorporating mixed materials and textures. Combining wood with glass, metal, or stone elements creates a captivating contrast and adds a touch of luxury. Textured cabinet doors, such as ribbed or embossed surfaces, are also gaining attention, as they provide a tactile and visually appealing focal point in the room.
Cabinet design is all about embracing elegance, functionality, and sustainability. From sleek minimalistic designs to bold colors and contrasting finishes, homeowners have an array of choices to make a style statement in their interiors. Smart storage solutions and the use of sustainable materials further enhance the practicality and eco-friendliness of modern cabinetry. So, if you’re planning a renovation or looking to upgrade your cabinets, consider incorporating these trends to create a timeless and stunning space that reflects your personal style.

October 13, 2013
Even though the threats are made faster than a prevention method or solution, it is vital to programs and computers to be kept up-to-date on security threats on both the computer users end, as well as the Internet servers. The Internet is a perfect place to find any information a person could want to know from the convenience of their home, but with this comes a risk not only to the computer itself, but also the information stored on and sent from the computer. These attacks are constantly updated to programs that prevent these attacks from occurring. Defenses for these attacks are on two major factors, personal security options and Internet server security implications. Each of these components helps ensure the integrity and privacy of the information stored on the computer and sent from the computer from the threats present on the Internet. There is a wide variety of threats present at any given moment on the Internet. And according to Niblett (2012) “So-called advanced persistent threats (APT), or continued state of ignorance (CSI), will continue. These are large-scale compromises, over a long period of time, possibly state-sponsored or condoned, aimed at extracting commercially or personally sensitive information from the targets.” One common method used is a targeted attack. This form of attack includes malware, spyware, and phishing attempts in order to obtain information from the computer or the computer user (Niblett, 2012). The information gained from phishing attacks can be used to compromise the security of a website or program by falsely asking for the user name and password be entered in to a site that is not legitimate, which results in a person having access to that account other than the intended user. Malware attacks are the method used to entice the use of an infected link that looks like it leads to a legitimate site and begins to attempt to obtain the persons e-mail, which can then be flooded with spam (Niblett, 2012). Next is spyware attacks, such as key loggers that collects every keystroke up to a certain number of strokes, pose a large threat to the integrity and security of the information stored and sent from a computer connected to the Internet, due to the attackers ability to upload all the keystrokes made on the computer, which can then be used to find usernames and passwords for accounts. The next main group of threats is called mass attacks which target vulnerabilities in popular software gaining full unrestricted access to information within, and the use of cracked software to spread viruses (Niblett, 2012). These attacks use what is called a “backdoor” in the programming. The backdoor is a flaw in the program that allows access that would otherwise be restricted. A recent example of a Mass attack would be the attack on the PlayStation Network in April of 2011. That attack compromised millions of email account information, along with other financial and personal information from the networks database.
To reduce the threat from an attack there are things that a computer user can do including keeping all software up-to-date, use of a firewall, and the use of proper security software. It is common knowledge that any out-of-date software is not going to be as secure as it should be, but this is often overlooked by some users increasing the threat of a successful attack. Enabling the automatic update option is an excellent solution to ensure the maximum benefit from protection software. Next according to Oppliger (1997) “A firewall builds a blockade between an internal network that is assumed to be secure and trusted, and another network, usually an external (inter) network, such as the internet, that is not assumed to be secure and trusted.” (p. 94). Larger network operators also have an additional security option available a standardized user-level authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) has been implemented for editing packet filters (Oppliger, 1997). Furthermore using the proper security software is vital to ensure the best level of security. It is best to have at least an antivirus, malware, and cleaner software installed and ran on a schedule that fits in with the amount of use the

Cheers! The Government has postponed a mountain of paperwork that would have added ten pence to a bottle of wine.
The suspension of import certification documents will save the wine industry more than £70 million a year.
The Wine and Spirit Trade Association (WSTA) said the move was a “huge victory” for wine businesses and consumers.
It feared the requirements would have hit the industry hard and “massively restricted consumer choice.”
Now, importers will not have to supply forms for nine months, or during a Brexit transition period.
Miles Beale, CEO of the WSTA, said:
“The government’s actions are a victory for common sense and will be met with a sense of relief by the UK wine industry as the threat of a £70m bill has been removed.
“As we made clear in our lengthy discussions with government officials had paperwork requirements not been suspended it would have added a massive burden on businesses and consumers alike.”

GEORGETOWN -- Lakefront property owners around Lake Walter F. George and the U.S. Corps of Engineers seem headed for a showdown over a recently released environmental assessment plan laid out by the lake's governmental overseers.
In the much-anticipated proposal, the Corps is seeking to return the lake's shoreline to a natural vegetative state, which it says will help limit erosion from downhill water runoff.
Property owners say the proposal will diminish their property values while the Corps contents it is for the greater good of all the lake's visitors.
The proposal has 17 changes to existing regulations, but the change that is drawing the most ire is a call for limited underbrush cutting.
The hot button item reads: "In all cases other than retaining walls, the area to be underbrushed will not exceed 100 feet or 50 percent of the property boundary of the common boundary whichever is less and shall not extend beyond 50 feet from the shore line. Small trees, three inches or less in diameter, may be cut."
"The No. 1 issue for us is the vegetation modification issue," Richard Sacco, the PR representative for the Friends of Lake Eufaula (as the lake is known in Alabama), said "Those who share shoreline common boundaries with the Corps will be affected by this thin strip of land. This proposal will depress values for all lakefront property owners."
Bill Smallwood, ACF River Project Manager for the Corps, says while he can understand the property owners' concerns, the Corps is considering the greater good of the Lake and its visitors.
"You have to keep in mind that Lake George receives more than 4 million visits per year, and we are looking at the longterm health of the lake for everybody -- not just the property owners." Smallwood said. "Basically this particular proposal is intended to allow for an erosion and runoff barrier. This border will provide some slowdown of the runoff.
"Lots of people use this lake, and this plan is in the long-term best interest of the lake and those who use it."
FOLE says lake area elected officials from the city of Eufaula; Barbour County, Ala., and Quitman County are anticipating declines in the value of their tax digest if the proposal is enacted. The group went on to add that all have submitted letters in opposition to the Corps' proposal.
FOLE will hold its annual meeting at 3 p.m. EDT on April 30 at the Eufaula Community Center to discuss the proposals and options.

Two hedge funds facing questions about their alleged insider trading of Washington Mutual securities have pushed back their depositions for the third time, causing hang-ups in the two-year-old bankruptcy case.
I reported last week that there are four hedge funds based in New York and New Jersey that have been accused of trading WaMu securities using confidential information obtained through their role in crafting the bankrupt holding company's plan of reorganization. What's at stake, largely the distribution of the $7 billion in WaMu Inc. assets, is detailed in my last post.
The funds, Appaloosa Management, Aurelius Capital Management, Centerbridge Partners and Owl Creek Asset Management, were all scheduled in March to be deposed by the counsel for the "equity security holders" about their trading activities. Bankruptcy Judge Mary Walrath granted the counsel the right to investigate the alleged insider trading in February after independent investor Nate Thoma raised concern about the funds' activities in a court hearing.
However, according to court documents, there have been multiple delays that have kept most of the depositions from happening. At least one Appaloosa official was scheduled to be deposed today at 10 a.m. in the downtown New York offices of law firm Susman Godfrey, but according to the court docket, the deposition has been pushed back (for the third time) until May 25.
Appaloosa is headed by Dave Tepper, who rose to relative fame in 2009 when his fund made $7 billion by purchasing distressed stock from Bank of America, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal.
Tepper's fund, along with all the others, have firmly denied any wrongdoing, calling the accusations "defamatory."
A deposition of Centerbridge was also pushed back for the third time. It was scheduled to take place tomorrow at 10 a.m. But court documents filed yesterday indicate it is now scheduled for May 26 at 10 a.m. at Susman Godfrey.
At least one official of Aurelius was deposed last week in the downtown New York offices of its attorney, Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel. A deposition for Owl Creek Asset Management is currently scheduled for 10 a.m. on May 16 at Susman Godfrey.

After years of planning and weeks of legislative defense for the project, Hinesville will welcome construction of its own four-year university later this year.
The state’s fiscal-year 2014 budget, adopted last week at the tail end of the 2013 General Assembly session, includes a $4.75 million line item for construction of an Armstrong Atlantic State University campus on Hinesville’s Memorial Drive.
The Savannah-based university currently has a Liberty Center, but the expanded campus will allow the school to increase its programs and strengthen its role in the community.
“We are excited about the new opportunities that an expanded Armstrong Liberty Center will allow us to create for the populations of Fort Stewart, Liberty County and the surrounding areas,” university President Dr. Linda Bleicken said.
The current facility will continue to be called the Armstrong Liberty Center, which also is the new building’s name. Once constructed, the center will serve populations within Liberty and surrounding counties, including dual-enrollment high-school students to working adults, military members and their families.
The university plans to expand associate of science degree options in health professions and science and technology at the new Armstrong Liberty Center, and education program offerings also will be expanded.
Georgia Board of Regents spokesman John Millsaps on Tuesday provided the Courier with project highlights.
“It will replace a smaller classroom facility located in a declining strip shopping center,” the presentation said.
The campus will be constructed on about 6 acres of land donated by the city on Memorial Drive near Welborn Street and Central Avenue.
It is approximately a half-mile from Fort Stewart and is slated to include a student-resource area, student-success center, study areas and faculty space for advising and tutoring.
The site will support undergraduate coursework and degrees in sciences, math, criminal justice, history, art and economics, according to the Board of Regents information.
Rep. Al Williams, D-Midway, spoke recently about the victory in a Liberty County Development Authority meeting. He said other area delegates Sen. Buddy Carter and Rep. Ron Stephens also focused on making the project a priority.
“It’s all a team effort, and I knew that from a political standpoint, the biggest effort I could make was to make sure that the issue stayed in front of the right people,” Williams said.
“This is a great, great addition to Hinesville, Liberty County and to all of this region. As far as I’m concerned, it was the most important local thing we had to do. So vital,” he added.
“We do need it here in Liberty County,” Hinesville Mayor Jim Thomas. “We’ve expended, I believe, $6 million on Memorial Drive, trying to get Memorial Drive to look like downtown.”
Hinesville City Manager Billy Edwards touted the economic benefits of the project.
“We are elated,” he said by email. “Having a University System of Georgia presence in the form of AASU within the downtown area will be a catalyst to the desired private sector investment along the Memorial Drive corridor as well as other downtown areas.”
“I’ve said for a long time now that we need an opportunity for our kids to go to college without having to commute or having to leave town,” he added. “We are the only Metropolitan Statistical Area in the state that does not have a permanent University System of Georgia presence, and Fort Stewart is the only military installation in the state that does not have an adjacent permanent USG presence.”
From an immediate perspective, the student presences downtown will spur business opportunities, he added. Longterm, having a workforce with college degrees or technical college training “is so very important to attracting good-paying employers.”
The city also has received a $350,000 commitment from the Georgia Department of Transportation for the Central Avenue realignment project, which is the last phase of the Memorial Drive realignment and is essential to the Armstrong project.
The Pirate campus will not be the only new addition to Memorial Drive, a corridor that has been about 10 years in the making. Across the street from the site, a new Hinesville public library will be constructed, and work is under way for the VA clinic at Memorial and Highway 84.
“We should all extend our appreciation to state Reps. Al Williams and Ron Stephens as well as state Sen. Buddy Carter for the tireless efforts they put forth in securing this project for the people of Liberty County,” Edwards added. “A special thanks should also be extended to Sen. Jack Hill and state Rep. Terry England for their critical support.”

Swollen feet during pregnancy and home remedies:
A pregnant woman should adapt several changes during pregnancy in every trimester as the baby develops. One of the most common change, is increasing in belly size. It’s quite natural for all the pregnant women. You may also notice swollen feet, ankles and legs during pregnancy, which feels more uncomfortable. If you notice severe swelling in other body parts like the face and hands consult the doctor as early as possible. Because that may be a sign of some serious blood pressure disorder aka Preeclampsia.
Though swollen feet are common. Sometimes you may feel frustrating and feel very uncomfortable while walking.
This article will help you to know the reasons for the swelling in the feet and the remedies to resolve them at home.
Reasons for swollen feet during pregnancy:
As you step-in to the second trimester you may observe these swollen feet and ankle in your fifth or sixth month of pregnancy. This may last till the end your pregnancy. The exact reason is as your growing uterus can put additional pressure on the blood vessels. These blood vessels carry blood from the lower part of the body to the heart, which results in retention of fluid also known as Edema. Causing the swollen feet, ankles and legs.
The other reason for the swollen ankles may be Hormonal changes in the body. When you are getting closer to the due date these hormones starts relaxing the pelvic joints which makes the labor possible. It also spreads or detaches the feet which appears like swelling in ankles.
How does it look like?
- You can feel like some fluid is filled under the skin of your legs.
- Your legs look puffy, stretched and shiny.
- If you sit by folding your legs or hold down a point on the leg for sometime, the effect of dimple is observed.
- You may feel like there is something under your feet or like you are stepping on a balloon.
When to consult a doctor, if you have swollen feet during pregnancy?
- If you notice a sudden swelling of face, hands and legs.
- When you feel swelling with pain.
- If you observe swelling with redness or heat in the feet.
- When Only one of your leg is swollen and the other is normal.
- When there is difficulty in the breathing.
- Unbearable headache.
- When you feel dizziness.
Remedies for swollen feet during pregnancy:
1. Rest or sleep on your left side:
Sleeping on the left side has many benefits like improvement of blood flow and comforts the baby position, which helps to reduce the puffiness of the feet and legs. When you lay on the left, pressure on the uterus would be reduced. As a result the blood flows back to the heart through the venacava (large blood vessel).
2. Take a massage:
A massage helps in the circulation of the blood flow, which will reduce swelling. When you can’t make it yourself, you can ask the help of your spouse. Add some essential oils for more relaxation. If your partner isn’t comfortable in doing that, not a problem there are many prenatal massage centers provide home service you can contact them. It also relieves from the stress on legs, which makes you feel more comfortable.
3. Adjust the size of footwear:
As the swelling feet will not allow you to wear your old foot fittings or high heels. It’s time to choose well fitting footwear which helps in reducing the swelling, back pain problems due to weight gain during pregnancy. Select some wider shoes to accommodate your swollen foot.
4. Take a frequent walk:
Taking a frequent walk for five to ten minutes after the short meals will help in food digestion and also promotes the blood circulation. Walking is considered as the safest exercise for the pregnant women, it also helps to reduce the swelling in the feet or legs.
5. Wear comfortable clothes:
Wearing tight fitted clothes will restrict the flow of blood, which results more swelling in the body parts. Try selecting some loose-fitting clothes which make you feel more comfortable near the belly and legs. Don’t choose the bottoms with tight elastic bands.
6. Rest by elevating your swollen feet during pregnancy:
Sitting with your feet elevating will really help you to heal the swelling in the legs. Try on maximum to rest while your feet is up. It helps to drain the excess fluid stocks from your legs.
7. Hydrate your body frequently:
Many women wonder, how would drinking water helps in reducing swelling? Yes, it really does. When your body feels that you are dehydrated, it starts to hold on fluids as a substitute. So, drink many glasses of water everyday to keep your body hydrated. Carry a water bottle along with you, when you are away from home. Its not necessary to drink only water you can also drink fruit juices, coconut water or lemon water and relax.
8. Cutoff caffeine intake:
Consuming too much caffeine isn’t good during pregnancy for the baby. Taking caffeine occasionally isn’t harmful. But the caffeine is a diuretic which makes you pee or urinate for more number of times. At this stage your body feels like to hold on fluids, which results in swelling.
9. Consume potassium rich foods:
Insufficient potassium will result in swelling. Your doctor will prescribe potassium pills if they observe swelling in legs. Potassium has the capacity to balance the fluids. So, it’s necessary to consume potassium rich foods like, spinach, bananas, sweet potatoes, potatoes, carrot, oranges, yogurt and other.
10. Less consumption of sodium intake:
One of the best ways to reduce swelling during pregnancy, less consumption of sodium. Salt has the capacity to hold extra water. Avoid stored or canned foods like pickles, as they add more sodium for preservation. Be conscious while cooking, avoid the usage of table salt in the dishes.
11. Avoid standing or sitting for long time:
Standing or sitting in the same place for a long time will result restriction of blood flow. Take a frequent walk for a while after sitting or standing for a long time. This will helps the blood flow, as a result swelling will be reduced.
12. Cool your swollen feet in cold water during pregnancy:
Cool your swollen feet and legs by giving a water bath. Slowly and gently massage your feet or ankles with ice packs for best results. It also makes you feel more relaxed and comfortable.
13. Wear compression stockings:
Wearing compression stocking will really help in reducing swelling in the foot. They gently apply pressure and squeeze the legs and feet, which helps in the flow of blood. Don’t use too tight stocking which makes the swelling more worse. Stockings till middle of your legs are only recommended not to use the stocking above the knees.
Regular exercise will keeps you more active and reduce swelling in the foot or ankle. It also helps to accommodate the blood flow. Consult the doctor before trying any exercises.
15. Avoid crossing legs when you have swollen feet during pregnancy:
Most of the women have a habit of crossing their legs while sitting or sleeping. Pregnant women should avoid crossing legs, because crossing legs will restrict the flow of blood which results in swelling.

Thursday I took Loki to the vet because he’s been acting not quite himself for a few months.
He was diagnosed with late-stage kidney disease. It’s a common old-age disease, but it doesn’t make it easy. It means he’ll slowly decline until he just can’t do it anymore. And then we’ll have to say goodbye. The vet gave us an outlook of a year. If he responds to the new diet and any support meds he might be fine for longer.
The disease will make his fur dull and shaggy. He’ll continue to lose weight and muscle mass. He’ll get weak and sleep a ton more. He’ll not eat. He’ll drink but it won’t be enough to clear the toxins in his blood.
I’ve got to try and be the best kitty momma right now that I can. I’m drowning in anticipatory grief and fear and Max’s ghost. Max hasn’t been gone a year yet and I’m already preparing to say goodbye to another kitty. My heart aches.

I decided to walk to Valpo along the coast from Viña del Mar, an upscale suburb to the north famed for great beaches.
Having walked the beaches the previous evening, I started near the castle.
There were plenty of runners and cyclists, but not many walkers.
Birds are always a highlight in Chile. Pelicans have always been some of my favourites.
Originally a port and fishing centre, much of the coast has not been improved for pedestrians.
Fishermen use mobile phones now.
There’s a lot of traffic on the coastal road. At one point you are pushed inland by train tracks.
Parts of this 3 hour walk I did enjoy.
Other sections I found annoying. Graffiti EVERYWHERE was starting to bother me.
A real highlight near Valpo is watching sea lions close up on this abandoned concrete structure. It’s amazing they can get up there. It’s entertaining to watch them negotiate who gets the prime real estate. And who gets pushed off back into the sea.
The best part was arriving in Valparaíso and joining a free (for tips) walking tour. The daughter of one of the gentlemen in our group had tons of fun sliding down a cement ramp.
When I moved to Hong Kong in 2008, I had this idea of a concrete jungle. This was indeed the case. However, foreigners usually don’t realize that Hong Kong territory is less than 10% urbanized, and over 40% of the land is designated as country parks. I soon discovered that there was a world of outdoor adventures for me to discover. However, the information that was available back then on how to get to the nicest trails, waterfalls, and other lesser known spots was scarce and mostly in Chinese. Furthermore, the instructions on how to get to the trails, and stay on the trails were approximate, at best!
That’s how the HikeHongKong blog was born; out of a desire to make access to the wonderful Hong Kong trails easy and accessible to all.
The response from hikers has been beyond my greatest hopes; as of July 2017, HikeHongKong gets over 100,000 hit a month, mostly from Hong Kongers, but also from the U.S.
Today, I have over 150 documented Hong Kong hikes with full instructions on how to get there without a car, difficulty ratings, cel-phone reception, maps, etc.

Beck Named One of Tampa’s Top Workplaces for 7th Year
- Apr 16, 2019
The Beck Group is one of Tampa Bay’s Top Workplaces 2019 by the Tampa Bay Times. This is the seventh year in a row that Beck earned a spot on the Top Workplaces list.
Beck’s employees were surveyed about several topics, including practices and policies that make these companies the top places to work.
“It is an honor to be recognized as a top workplace. We strive to provide our team with the best possible experiences, from career growth to leadership development, as well as benefits, diversity, and flexibility. This recognition is a culmination of those efforts,” said Holly Crowder, Chief Human Resource Officer at Beck.
The History of Top Workplaces in Tampa Bay
In the Tampa Bay region, more than 190 leading companies participated. To be considered for participation, companies or government entities had to employ at least 50 workers in Florida and be at least a year old.
The Top Workplaces 2019 in Tampa Bay program was created by the Tampa Bay Times and Energage. This is the section’s 10th anniversary. The companies were ranked based on leadership, compensation and training, workplace flexibility, and diversity.
“Over the past decade, we’ve recognized more than 300 Top Workplaces and shared stories from their employees about what makes them special,” said Times Business Editor Bill Varian. “This year’s list once again showcases a strong mix of returning leaders and newcomers, each with lessons to offer.”
Beck’s History of Building Community in Tampa Bay
Beck’s history in Florida dates back to 1961 when it built the very first launch facility, Launch Complex 34, for the new Saturn rocket series at Cape Canaveral.
For the last 30 years, the firm has been part of some of the first and most significant projects in the Tampa Bay area. Beck has touched every aspect of life in the region, from travelers passing through Tampa International Airport’s Airsides ‘C’ and ‘F’ to visitors exploring The Dali; from students living in one of our six University of Tampa residence halls to individuals heading to work at the USAA Southeast Regional office.
Beck is the architect and builder of the state-of-the-art University of South Florida Health’s Center for Advanced Medical Learning and Simulation (CAMLS), Ulele, and Le Meridien Tampa. Currently, the team is designing and preparing to break ground at the University of South Florida at St. Petersburg’s new residence and dining hall.

The Congress of the Hague, which took place in 1948 in the wake of the second world war, is surely one of the most remarkable events of this closing century, with a goal to reunite the people of Europe in a common organisation capable of ensuring a lasting peace. To mark this event, and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Council of Europe, Council of Europe Publishing has released a facsimile edition of the original proceedings of this historic congress. In its original form, these pages are permeated with history and record the debates and reflections of the great personalities which created both the concept of the Council of Europe and put in place the mechanisms which would make it an effective and dynamic tool for change in Europe. The first initiative of the congress was the requirement of urgently bringing together a European Assembly. A commission was to be given the task of immediately undertaking the preparation of a human rights charter. The future assembly would propose the creation of a court of justice capable of applying the necessary sanctions to ensure respect for the charter. Thus was outlined the essence of what was to become the mission of the Council of Europe and the European Court of Human Rights. The resolutions of the Hague deserve to be read and re-read because they define the task which was and continues to be the responsibility of those who wish to construct a united Europe.

This Blue Cheese, Bacon, and Scallion Cheeseball is perfect for parties. It spreads easily on veggies or crackers. Use low-carb, grain-free crackers to make it suitable for low-carb, gluten-free, grain-free, ketogenic, Atkins or Banting diets.

This Blue Cheese, Bacon, and Scallion Cheeseball recipe combines cream cheese with the blue cheese. The cream cheese softens the tang of the blue and makes a soft, spreadable treat. The addition of bacon, scallions, and a hint of parsley turns this cheeseball into smokey, oniony goodness. The lightly toasted walnut crust adds a nutty crunch. The final product makes a perfect party food for the holiday season.
This cheeseball is not only delicious, but also a cinch to make, and easy to transport. Serve it with low-carb, grain-free crackers, leaves of endive, or celery sticks–or not. I have been known to eat it with a spoon. Yep, it’s that good.
Cheeseballs were a part of the holiday season when I was a child. We didn’t go to a lot of parties, but we had our own little “parties” at home. My mother would break out a pre-packaged cheeseball, some crackers, and a bottle of ginger ale and we would enjoy our “party food” while we watched Frosty the Snowman.
Now, I’m not going to knock pre-packaged cheeseballs because they made a lot of great childhood memories. Today cheeseballs still help make my holiday season special, but I now love making my own. This Blue Cheese, Bacon, and Scallion Cheeseball recipe is my favorite. It’s quick and easy to make.
Of course, when you have a cheeseball, you need something to spread the cheese on! While celery sticks and cucumber slices can work for this, sometimes you may want crackers. Don’t worry, there are lots of low carb options available. You might want to spread this cheesy goodness on our Low-Carb Rosemary Parmesan Crackers (you may want to leave out the rosemary), or these keto cheese crackers from Low Carb Yum.
Whether you take this cheeseball to a party, or serve it at home, it’s sure to make an evening memorable.

A guest post by Cate Burton
In July 2014 I had the opportunity to attend the Global Institute of Theology (GIT) offered by the World Communion of Reformed Churches and hosted by the Universidad Biblica Latinoamerica in San Jose, Costa Rica. There were 30 participants from 15 different countries, as well as administration and academic staff. We came from Europe, Asia, Africa, the America’s and the Middle East. I was the only one from Oceania, Australasia and Pasifika and found myself as the unofficial representative from our part of the world.
The catch phrase which emerged from our three and a half weeks together was ‘Many Cultures, One Family.’ It was this sense of cross-cultural community which has marked me most. I am truly privileged and blessed to have experienced something of the beauty of the Universal Church (well, the Reformed part of it anyway).
On the academic side, the GIT included one core course and six elective courses, all taught in English. The theme of the core course was Transforming Church, Community and Mission, with one week of morning lectures dedicated to each of the three components. The elective courses took place in the afternoons with the first three electives held during the first week and a half while the remaining electives were held during the last week and a half. These classes were mixed according to gender and nationality with 10 students in each elective. The electives I attended were Eco Theology and Feminism and Masculinity.
The content of the core course and the elective courses has both broadened and deepened my theology. I now have a fuller understanding the theological, ecological, sociological, political and economic issues faced in other parts of the world. With this comes an increased desire to be mindful of and engaged in these issues globally, as well as encouraging the church in Aotearoa New Zealand to respond faithfully to these concerns as they present themselves in our context.
To the class room and coffee break discussions we each brought our own perspectives and experiences, and we shared these freely with one another. Contextual theology became very important for us, with many statements beginning, ‘in my context…’ and many questions being answered, ‘well, it depends on your context…’ This was freeing as well as frustrating.
There was a chapel service every morning and evening during the week, which was another opportunity for us share songs and liturgy from our own context as well as develop our own sense of corporate worship as a gathered community. One day I led worship with Rabih from Lebanon; we prayed in Te Reo Maori and we sang in Arabic. On another occasion I led with Jacoline from the Netherlands and I taught everyone how to hongi as a way of Passing the Peace. We sang in a variety of languages and we prayed the Lord’s Prayer in our mother tongues.
Once a week we visited local projects such as childcare centres for families of impoverished neighbourhoods and churches running support clinics for women with HIV and Aids. On Saturdays we would go sightseeing in San Jose or other parts of the country from the Central Valley to the Pacific Coast. On Sunday mornings we also attended local Presbyterian or Pentecostal churches, which were all in Spanish and were translated when possible.
My experience at the GIT has contributed for my formation as a disciple of Christ and as a Minister of Word and Sacrament. I will continue to be shaped by the relationships which developed and the way of life we shared together.
I am grateful to St Peters in the City for allowing me to take an extended period of leave when I was so new to my ministry role there and to the Kaimai Presbytery for endorsing my application for the Best Travel Fund which made a significant contribution to my travel costs.
Muchas gracias! Tena rawa atu koe!

A form of HDR, Dolby Vision constantly adjusts the screen based on what you are watching
We can't blame you for losing track of all the latest television and video standards. We all shifted to HD without too much concern and dipped our toes into the crystal-clear waters of Ultra HD. But then HDR arrived, followed by HDR 10, HDR 10+, and Dolby Vision. 3D came and went somewhere along the way too.
As well as seeing Dolby Vision on the specification sheets of some televisions, you may also have heard of it in relation to the iPhone 12, which can shoot video using the technology.
In this article we will explain what Dolby Vision is, how it is different to other forms of HDR, and how to get it in your home.
What is Dolby Vision?
At its simplest, Dolby Vision is a form of HDR, or High Dynamic Range. Not to be confused with the HDR feature of some cameras, where multiple photos are taken at different exposure levels then blended together into one perfect image, HDR for video features a greater range of contrast and brightness than regular video, known as Standard Dynamic Range.
Anyone who has viewed HDR content, on Netflix for example, will be familiar with how the TV screen brightness ramps up. Some televisions switch to a mode optimized for displaying HDR content, and the most obvious change is extra brightness.
But where switching to an HDR mode is just one step of optimization, Dolby Vision constantly optimizes the display based on what it is showing at each moment. Instructions for how the display should adjust are coded into the footage – the movie you are watching, for example – giving the screen a constant feed of instructions on how to adjust.
These instructions are known as metadata and have a television adjust its brightness, contrast and color for every shot of every scene of a movie or TV show.
Dolby Vision content can also be played on a non-compatible TV, where the footage will be shown as regular HDR or SDR if that's all the screen is capable of. When Dolby Vision content meets a Dolby Vision-compatible TV, the full metadata is sent to the screen, which then adjusts for every shot and scene.
Sony is a manufacturer who makes TVs compatible with Dolby VisionSony
What difference does Dolby Vision make?
There isn't a great deal of Dolby Vision content available just yet, but from what we have seen so far the experience is a notable improvement over HDR10. The overall impression is that of greater detail – not because of a higher resolution, because the footage is still 4K Ultra HD – but owing to improvements in tone definition and an improved color balance. For many viewers these differences will be small, but for movie buffs it's good to know your eyes are being treated to the very best.
As with any high-quality video content, Dolby Vision movies are best viewed from a UHD Blu-ray disc. As we wrote about recently, physical media still has a place in today's smart home, as it offers greater quality with less compression than the admittedly more convenient content delivered by streaming services.
How to watch content with Dolby Vision
Although the content itself is still quite rare, there are increasing options when it comes to hardware for viewing it. The Apple TV 4K, Amazon Fire Stick 4K and Chromecast with Google TV all support Dolby Vision, along with some televisions from LG, Sony, Panasonic and Philips. Samsung TVs aren't compatible as they work with HDR10+ instead, a rival to Dolby Vision.
For the best experience we recommend buying a UHD Blu-ray player, and an increasing number of these now come with support for Dolby Vision, including models from Sony and Panasonic.
You should check the spec sheet of the player (and television) you are interested in to ensure it is compatible – but remember, Samsung doesn't support Dolby Vision on any of its products, due to its backing of HDR10+, which also embeds display optimization metadata into video content. HDR10+ content is also limited in quantity for now, but does appear in some Blu-ray titles and is being used by Amazon Prime Video on its own content, including The Grand Tour.
Lastly, Dolby Vision content can also be viewed on some smartphones and tablets. These include most recent models of iPhone from the iPhone X to the iPhone 12, as well as all models of iPad Pro apart from the original. For now though, only the iPhone 12 family can record Dolby Vision footage of their own.
As for Android, phones with the Snapdragon 865 chip can display Dolby Vision content. These include the Samsung Galaxy S20 and Note 20, the LG V60, Sony Xperia 1 II and 5 II, , the OnePlus 8, Motorola Edge+ and numerous handsets from Xiaomi, Oppo, Redmi and Vivo.
What is Dolby Vision IQ?
Finally, we have Dolby Vision IQ. This system also includes the metadata to optimize a display, but also optimizes based on ambient lighting conditions. For example, the content will be displayed differently depending on whether your TV is in a light or dark room. To do this, Dolby Vision IQ combines the metadata baked into the content with the television's ambient light sensors to dynamically adjust the picture based on lighting conditions.

Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland’s insane actual salary has been revealed. The Norwegian International signed for City in the summer on an initial reported wage of £375 000 per week. However, after all the goal bonuses included in the deal, the actual figure is astronomically higher.
Haaland started this season in truly frightening fashion off the back of his £51million move from Borussia Dortmund, scoring 19 goals in his first 12 matches for the Sky Blues.
Haaland is on course to beat Mo Salah’s record of 32 goals in a single Premier League campaign having already racked up an astonishing 14 goals in 8 league appearances so far.
Given his fine form and the almost guarantee that he’ll score every week, Haaland’s salary inclusive of the bonuses places him as far-and-away the highest paid player in England, taking home a ridiculous £900 000 a week, according to Sportsmail.
There’s already been rumours of Haaland’s exit, with it being reported that the former Dortmund man contains a release clause in his contract, worth a reported £174million.
However, Pep Guardiola has dismissed the claims, shutting down the rumours Real Madrid are close to activating the clause.
“It’s not true,” said the City coach after their win over Copenhagen on Wednesday. “He has not got a release clause for Real Madrid, or any other team.
“Am I annoyed by the rumours? No, absolutely not. Rumours, and people talking, you cannot control it – so always we have to worry about what we can control.
“The important thing is that he has adapted [since joining City] really well. I have the feeling he is incredibly happy here, and this is the most important thing.”
Haaland will be looking to add to his league tally this weekend ahead of a fixture against Southampton at the Etihad. City currently sit second in the Premier League, but may find themselves top come the end of the weekend after first-placed Arsenal host Liverpool.

Sid- FOSTER NEEDED!
Posted on November 18, 2022
in Adult, Senior, Small, Special Needs
SIDNEY bka “Sid”
Our precious boy was born blind. Since he’s never known a different life, this “ailment” hasn’t affected him much at all. He embodies the “handi-capable” moniker. Sid is also a bit of a “close talker”. He doesn’t know personal space / boundaries because… well… he can’t SEE! Sid moves through life with reckless abandon. His throttle is stuck towards rabbit mode and like a bumper car, he just glances off things and keeps moving forward! Happy go lucky!
Sid is potty trained, very loving, and wants nothing more to be a companion animal to his humans. He hates being alone, crates are a big no, and while he’s dog-friendly, it’s important the other dogs in a potential home be the sort that would be ok with him bumping into them routinely.
Sid is about 12 pounds, HW-, UTD, neutered, and ready to interview forever families. Sid doesn’t let being blind stop him from enjoying life and we hope to find a family who agrees, it’s not big thing!
Sid especially finds tremendous comfort when allowed to snuggle with his people so if you’re looking for a constant companion, Sid may be the dog for you!
Sid will be fully vaccinated, Neutered and microchipped prior to adoption. Adoption donation is $250

It shouldn’t be a secret how much we use (and love) bobby pins & hair pins around here. I don’t know where I’d be without them. You can see some of our tips & videos about bobby pins HERE. Not to mention our Goody Spin Pins that are a fabulous substitute for lots of pins in a bun. You can check those out HERE and our video HERE But, obviously as wonderful as they are, you can’t use those when holding back bangs, or small sections of hair, etc. And while back I’d written on Facebook that I’d seen on Pinterest that if you put the ridges of the bobby pin against your head instead of the flat side, it’ll stay in your hair better (which I’ve tried & I agree – they do stay better!) So it got me thinking about bobby pins – a little too much I’m afraid!
I started poking around online and found all kinds of fun things! On Pinterest I found this fun instruction sheet that came with some bobby pins via the Bridal Guide (you’ll need to click on it to enlarge it). Their post can be found here.
I also got thinking about how often we lose bobby pins. Please say I’m not the only one! And by lose, I mean find them later in the carpet, on the floor tucked in under the bathroom cabinets or have random ones floating around in your purse or coat pockets! I think I’ve even found them in my washing machine now and then since the girls take them and shove them in their pockets.
As I’ve perused around Pinterest I’ve seen some fun ways to store bobby pins, fun and creative ways to decorate them, as well as other uses for them (yes – besides in your hair!) So I thought I’d dedicate this post to bobby pins today!
First up – decorating, adding embellishments and such. Do you do this? Or do you buy them decked out instead? The possibilities are endless when it comes to doing stuff to them to add some spice to your hair. Of course you can hot glue things on like we did to hair pins in THIS post back when Goose got baptized. Here are just a few fun ones I found:
I thought this was pretty cool – these come from Henry Happened and she took wider black bobby pins and drew on them with a white pen. If you put a few in your hair right next to each other, it would look fabulous! You can read her whole post DIY Missoni Bobby Pins over here.
These fun bobby pins were just painted with fingernail polish. You could probably use just clear & then add some glitter to add some ‘bling’ out of her regular ol’ bobby pins if you don’t have sparkly polish. These are from The College Prepster who also found this on Pinterest …
And for countless other ways to deck out bobby pins you can go here on Pinterest to see lots of the ones I found. You can add beads, buttons on the ends, flowers, the ideas are endless.
And back to the topic of keeping your bobby pins in one place, there is this great idea of putting them in a paper clip holder. I found this on A Law Student’s Journey. She made this cutie in about 5 minutes. You can check it out over here. You could decorate this any way you wanted and shake the bobby’s out as needed.
And I’m sure if you’re on Pinterest, you’ve seen this floating around one floating around. You can see the whole post here. I’ve got one of those magnetic “pin cushions” I’m thinking of pulling out and sticking mine on. Right now they are in little organizers in my drawer, but they are hard to get out.
There wasn’t a site that this one linked back to but I found this one found here. What a wonderful way to store them if you are traveling or want to keep some extra ones in your purse or backpack. I know you can buy some at Sally’s Beauty that come in a little tin, but this is a great way too I think!
Then I found some other ways that bobby pins can be used instead of just in our hair. I found a cute little idea here. Ironically, Goose was trying to get her school planner to open to the correct page this morning and there was a bobby pin on the counter and she grabbed it and did just this very thing. I laughed & asked her if she’d knew what I was posting about today!
Here’s another innovative way to use bobby pins found over here. You can slide them onto a hem to hold pleats in place as you iron them. Just be sure you don’t iron on top of the bobby pin because it might make a nice mark on your skirt where the bobby pins were!
And last but certainly not least – this has got to be my favorite non-hair usage of bobby pins. Over at PBJ Stories she reorganized her kitchen and to rotate her cans she used a magazine storage container. But the cans would have rolled out the end. So she opened up bobby pins making them flat and spray painted them white and stuck them on the end to keep the cans from rolling out. How smart is that? Her whole post can be found here.
So – what ways do you store your bobby pins? What other uses have you found for them? We’d love it if you shared your tips or ideas!
