Huawei has been pretty aggressive with marketing its new brand of smartphones, and the Huawei Honor 4C happens to be one among the few that it has launched in India. With its price set at just Rs 8999, this device is competing in the most fiercely fought segment in the Indian market right now. Let us take a look at its traits and see what sets it apart from other similar offerings.
One disadvantage the Huawei Honor 4C possesses is the fact that it does not feature 4G connectivity. Handsets like the Yu Yureka, the Xiaomi Redmi 2 and the Lenovo A7000 which can be purchased at similar retail values, all kick in support for LTE. However, it’s not that big a deal yet since very few areas in India currently get to enjoy the fast data standard.
This new dual SIM Huawei phone fits inside a body that’s just 8.8mm thin, but at 162gms it’s a bit towards the heavier side. Its rear surface is highlighted by the fact that it possesses a 3D laser-etched pattern which is smooth to the touch.
Like most devices of its class, the Huawei Honor 4C has gone for a 5-inch 720p HD IPS display. This assembly results in a pixel density count of 294ppi, making it a pretty satisfying offering for those who consume media on their smartphones a lot.
As for the stuff that can be found inside the Huawei Honor 4C, the 64-bit Kirin 620 octa core processor is the major headliner. This in-house unit is clocked at 1.2GHz and is assisted in its operations by 2GB worth of RAM. There’s 8GB of storage space onboard the Huawei Honor 4C as well, apart from a microSD card slot that supports another 32GB.
Another impressive aspect of the Huawei Honor 4C is the fact that it carries on its rear surface a 13MP camera. Accompanied by an LED flash, this snapper boasts of an f2.0 aperture and a 27mm wide-angle lens. For selfie enthusiasts, there’s a 5MP front shooter to take advantage of.
Next, we come to the important topic of battery life. A 2550mAh power pack can be found cradled inside the Huawei Honor 4C. We’re not quite sure about how good the battery life is, but the makers of the Honor 4C have indeed mentioned that it grabs a special SmartPower 2.5 technology for extracting more power from the unit than usual.
This new Huawei smartphone features the Android 4.4.2 KitKat OS that’s layered with the company’s EMUI 3.0 user interface that comes equipped with some really interesting software attributes. Moreover, an update to the 5.0 Lollipop version of Android has also been guaranteed for it.
Huawei’s smartphone is now available for sale exclusively through Flipkart in exchange of Rs 8999. The fact that it isn’t sold via annoying flash sales is something that could give it a slight advantage over its competitors.

Berry applied the Page 69 Test to The Notorious Pagan Jones and reported the following:
From page 69:Visit Nina Berry's website.The envelope was unsealed and yellowing at the corners. Pagan lifted the flap and carefully pulled out a stack of folded stationery on heavy white paper. Letters. She unfolded the first one with the care of an archaeologist unrolling an ancient papyrus.It’s 1961, the height of the Cold War, and to Pagan Jones the events of World War II are like some distant nightmare. But as the story moves along, that terrible conflict casts a warped shadow over everything she thought she knew about her family.
Handwriting in black ink slanted across the paper in a jagged scrawl. She didn’t recognize it. Her breathing quickened as she read the first two words. Liebe Eva.
Her mother’s name, Eva, with a casual German greeting in front of it. Pagan understood enough German to know that Liebe was, at the very least, friendly. It didn’t have to be more than that.
But it could be.
The events on page 69 of that book may seem small, but they are vital to the backstory of Pagan’s mother’s mysterious past, and to what motivates Pagan throughout the rest of the book. Eva Jones committed suicide when Pagan was only 12, sending her sensitive daughter into a dark spiral of alcoholism. But why did Eva kill herself? She left no note, and had seemed completely happy up the morning of her death.
Pagan knows she shouldn’t blame herself for her mother’s death, but the guilt weighs on her just the same. Maybe if she finds out what triggered the suicide, that is one burden, at least, she can set aside. So Pagan is driven to find the truth, and what she finds in her father’s safe on page 69 is the first big clue that will send her on a quest that will traverse at least three books and as many continents.

Translation made by DeepL Traduttore
The RGPD (Reglamento General de Protección de Datos), or GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), is a new European law that applies as of May 25, 2018.
It concerns all bodies and companies that process personal data of persons in Europe, regardless of the country from which they operate.
Let's talk a little bit about the law
Consent must be "unequivocal"
Consent to data processing is valid if it has been given by a statement of the data subject or by clear affirmative action, not by omission, as it is based on inaction.
In some situations, in addition to being unequivocal, it must be explicit:
• Processing of sensitive data.
• Automated decision making.
• International transfers.
The data will remain legitimate as long as the consent was obtained in the manner provided for in the GDPR, with other words, through a manifestation or affirmative action.
Particularly cumbersome formulations which incorporate references to legal texts should be avoided.
Information should be provided on why and for what purpose such data are obtained.
Procedure for the exercise
Users must be facilitated in the exercise of their rights, and the procedures and forms for this must be visible, accessible and simple.
Those responsible are required to make it possible to submit applications by electronic means, especially when processing is carried out by such means.
The exercise of the rights shall be free of charge.
The person responsible must inform the user of the action taken on his request within one month (two more months may be extended in the case of particularly complex requests and this extension must be notified within the first month).
If the person responsible decides not to comply with a request, he or she shall inform the Commission within one month of its submission, giving the reasons for his or her refusal.
Those responsible should take steps to verify the identity of those requesting access and those exercising rights.
Right of access
Those responsible will be able to comply with this right by providing remote access to a secure system that offers the data subject direct access to their personal data.
The right to obtain a copy of the personal data processed is recognized.
Right to be forgotten
A procedure must be provided for exercising the right to the deletion of personal data.
It is a manifestation of the rights of cancellation or opposition in the online environment.
Limitation of treatment
It consists of not applying your personal data to the processing operations used.
The same time limits and procedures apply to this right as to the other rights provided for in the GDPR.
The right to portability provides the data subject with a copy of his/her data, which must be provided in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
This right can only be exercised:
• When processing is carried out by automated means.
• When processing is based on consent or a contract.
• When the data subject so requests with respect to the data provided to the data controller and concerning him/her, including data derived from the data subject's own activity.
All those responsible must carry out a risk assessment of the processing operations they carry out.
Large organizations: as a general rule, the analysis should be carried out using one of the existing risk analysis methodologies.
Smaller organizations and less complex treatments: the analysis will be the result of a minimally documented reflection on the implications of processing for users' rights and freedoms.
Data protection from the design and by default
Those responsible should take measures and techniques to integrate the principles of GDPR into their treatment.
Decision-makers should take measures to ensure that only the necessary data, the length of processing, the retention periods and the accessibility of the data are processed.
Those responsible and responsible shall establish the appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure an adequate level of security in accordance with the risks identified in the preliminary analysis.
Notification of "Data breaches"
When a breach of data security occurs, the data controller should notify the competent data protection authority, unless the breach is unlikely to pose a risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects.
Notification of the bankruptcy to the authorities must be given without undue delay and, if possible, within 72 hours after the person responsible has knowledge of it.
Those responsible must document all security breaches.
In cases where it involves a high risk to the rights or freedoms of users, notification to the supervisory authority shall be supplemented by notification to the latter.
The aim is to enable them to take measures to protect themselves from the consequences. The purpose is always to enable the affected user to react as quickly as possible.
The RGPD adds to the contents of the notification recommendations on the measures that can be taken by the parties concerned to deal with the consequences of breaches.
Impact assessment on data protection
Data controllers shall carry out a Data Protection Impact Assessment.
When the analysis is carried out on processing operations initiated prior to the date of application of the GDPR, these present a high risk to the rights or freedoms of data subjects.
Data Protection Officer
The figure of the Data Protection Officer (DPO) shall be mandatory in the following cases:
• Public authorities and organizations.
• Responsibles or managers whose main activities include processing operations requiring regular and systematic observation of large-scale interested parties.
• Data controllers or data processors who have among their main activities the large-scale processing of sensitive data.
The DPO should be appointed on the basis of its professional qualifications and, in particular, its knowledge of data protection law and practice.
The designation of the DPO and its contact details should be made public by the persons responsible and responsible and should be communicated to the competent supervisory authorities.
Treatment of children's data
Obtaining consent will only be valid from the age of 16 onwards, with the consent of parents or legal guardians under that age.
The GDPR allows member states to set a lower age, provided that it is not less than 13 years old.
In the case of Spain, the LOPD sets the age at 14 years of age as a general rule.
Up to €10,000,000 or 2% of the previous financial year*
• Failure to obtain consent from minors
• Do not apply technical and organizational measures by default
• No record of processing activities available
• Do not report security breaches
• Not conducting the Impact Assessment
• No DPO designation
Serious or Very Serious Infringements
Up to 20,000,000 € or 4% of the previous financial year*
• Failure to comply with RGPD principles
• Failure to comply with Interested Parties' rights
• Failure to comply with international data transfer requirements
• Failure to comply with the Control Authority's resolution
* Applies the highest amount

Faith, Dogs aren't colorblind, but they do see colors differently than we do. Dogs don't seem to be able to see reds and greens very well, so their world probably seems to be in shades of yellow and blue. For a comparison of how you and a dog see colors, go to this web site: http://www.uwsp.edu/acad/psych/dog/dvision.htm Press the link for "Dr. Ps training site", then "General Topics", then "Vision". The first article on acuity and color vision has the picture you should look at, so you'll see what I'm talking about. Dogs don't see fine details as well as humans, either. We usually see 20/20 or a little better, but dogs see about 20/80. That's four times blurrier! Dogs do see better at night, though, and they also see moving things better than we do. That may explain why your dog can spot the moving ball that you throw in the woods. He can tell exactly where it stopped moving. This would come in handy for a dog in the wild hunting squirrels and other small stuff. He'd be able to tell where the squirrel was going, and if it stopped, he could figure out exactly where. I found some pictures of dog retinas too. The retina is the back part of your eye that does the seeing for your eye. There's one picture of a normal eye, and three pictures of dog eyes with a disease called progressive retinal atrophy. http://www.sheepdog.com/diseases/pra/pra.html I hope this helps to answer your question!

Cameron Joseph reports at The Hill:
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) delivered a fiery speech in Iowa on Saturday, wowing the conservative crowd with a passionate argument for small government and his own lengthy resume.
The Wisconsin governor, in rolled-up shirtsleeves, paced the stage as he blasted big government and touted a long list of conservative reforms he's pushed through in blue Wisconsin.
The governor also showed a rhetorical flourish that's largely been absent from his previous campaigns, drawing the crowd to its feet multiple times.
"There's a reason we take a day off to celebrate the 4th of July and not the 15th of April," he said, almost yelling as his voice grew hoarse. "Because in America we value our independence from the government, not our dependence on it."
Walker's speech had something for every element of the activist crowd. The governor touted his three victories over Democrats and recall win as well as his state-level education reforms. Each new policy he helped pass drew cheers: Voter ID laws, education reforms, tax cuts and defunding Planned Parenthood.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an improved multi-function cycling computer.
2. Descfiption of the Prior Art
As computers become smaller and less expensive, the possible applications for compact computers continue to expand. One such application which has found favor with computers is the sports industry. The merging of the sports and fitness industry with the computer technology has produced a wealth of useful information on the athlete's ongoing output and biological conditioning. Through performance monitoring and trainers, individual athletes gain the ability to modify training output levels according to real-time feedback.
One such computerized device is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,862,395 issued to Fey et al. on Aug. 29, 1989. The bicycle data display instrument shown uses a pedal rotation sensor and a wheel rotation sensor to calculate and simultaneously display both the current speed and actual cadence (pedal rpms) of the rider. Other data displayable include historical data such as average speed and travelling time.
Another data display unit is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,642,606 issued to Tsuyama on Feb. 10, 1987. The data display unit uses a magnetic pickup and sensor mounted to the pedal crank arm and another to the front wheel of the bicycle to calculate speed and actual cadence. A liquid crystal display shows the: maximum speed, average speed, and actual cadence of the rider.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,335,188 issued to Brisson on Aug. 2, 1994, shows a performance comparator and display means connected to a bicycle. The comparator senses performance data which can be stored by the user for retrieval later as historical performance data. The historical performance data can be displayed adjacent: the current performance data on the computer display to show relative improvement of the user over the historical performance.
As a further use of computers in the bicycling area, an electro-mechanical system for manually or automatically shifting gears on a bicycle is the subject of U.S. Pat. No. 5,059,158 issued to Bellio et al. on Oct. 22, 1991. In an automatic model, a central processor receives actual cadence input and compares the current shifter position and gear ratio to a stored database representing the different gear ratios available on the bicycle. The computer compares the current cadence to pre-stored cadence limits and when necessary shifts the derailleur of the bicycle to achieve a gear ratio which will bring the cadence within the cadence limits.
The Bellio et al. patent further shows a computer mode where the computer calculates the cadence from the speed and a derailleur or shifter position sensor. The cadence is then compared to the pre-stored cadence limits and displays an up or down arrow to signal the rider to shift up or down.
None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed.
The current invention provides a novel approach to providing an on-board computer coach to provide real-time instructions to the rider. Variables such as cadence, heart rate, breathing rate, and speed can be used to monitor the effectiveness of ongoing training sessions, races, etc. And as cycling coaches and sports health specialists gather information on cycling techniques, various training methods and bio-feedback checkpoints continue to be identified and proven effective.
The effectiveness of the training device and the willingness of cyclists to implement the different instruments depend in great part on the effort and expense involved in equipping and using the device. If the weight of the device, installation time, or its cost are perceived to outweigh or in great part negate the value of the instrument, then the user will be reticent to employ the device, irrespective of the potential benefit of the computer.
A cyclometer computer according to the present invention provides the rider with significant information about the current performance of the rider and offers instantaneous suggestions about how the rider can improve his current riding output. The simplicity of the device to install, the reduced sensors, and equipment necessary to drive the full function computer greatly add to the usability of the device.
The computer has a central display mounted on a handlebar bracket. A single sensor mounted to the front wheel detects the current wheel rotation of the bicycle. Stored data in the computer including the diameter of the wheel, and the front and rear gear sizes (i.e., teeth count) are used to determine the current speed of the bicycle and theoretical cadence for each gear at the current speed.
The display shows the theoretical cadence for three gears which will produce a cadence within pre-stored cadence limits. An arrow or other indicator denotes whether additional gears are available which also produce the desired cadence. The rider then can choose gears recommended by the computer to place his cadence within the limits calibrated or preset by the user.
Function and mode buttons provided on the computer also control separate outputs on the display, including stop and start for the timing functions on the computer. The mode button controls scrolling of historical and current performance data on the computer display including max speed, odometer, trip distance, elapsed time, average speed, current time of the day, and gears/cadences.
Optionally, sensors can be provided on the computer which sense the gears through attachment to the shifters or derailleur cables to sense the exact gear combination and thus the gear ratio currently being ridden. With this information, the computer can prompt the rider to shift up or down, and inform the rider of the current cadence for the exact gear being employed.
Optionally, a sensor can be mounted to the chainstay to sense motion of the crankarm to detect actual cadence. A cadence alarm can then be sounded when the rider has a cadence outside a user pre-set effective cadence maximum and minimum. Also the computer can display the difference between the rider's current rpms and the average of the effective cadence maximum and minimum.
Mounting of the computer to an existing mounting bracket and sensor is simplified by the use of a converter bracket which mounts between the existing bracket and the cyclometer. A dual converter bracket can also be used to mount the cyclometer along with the existing computer or beside a second computer according to the present invention.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of the invention to provide a cyclometer computer which has a simplified mounting process which displays a theoretical cadence derived from the wheel speed.
It is another object of the invention to supply a cyclist with enhanced current performance data in the form of theoretical cadence for various gear combinations available on the bicycle.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a simplified upgrade kit including a bracket which allows a computer according to the current invention to be installed on an existing computer mounting bracket.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a dual converter bracket which can be installed on the handlebar or stem of a bicycle to allow a plurality of computers to be mounted side by side providing the rider with enhanced performance data.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a cable or shifter mounted sensor which senses and records the current shifter or derailleur position, and transmits the data to the display so that the actual cadence of the rider can be displayed.
It is an object of the invention to provide improved elements and arrangements thereof in an apparatus for the purposes described which is inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes.
These and other objects of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
FIG. 1 is a top plan view of the cyclometer computer and display face with all of the various display elements shown.
FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the cyclometer computer and display face in a calibration mode.

FIG. 10 shows a side elevation view of a prior art bicycle computer with a wheel sensor and a cadence sensor.
Similar reference characters denote corresponding features consistently throughout the attached drawings.
The present invention is an improved bicycle computer training coach and mounting device. Referring to the drawings a more detailed description of the invention will be made.
FIG. 10 shows a prior art computer 2 mounted to a bicycle. The computer 2 is in communication with a sensor 4 which sends a pulse to the computer 2 through cable 5 each time a magnet 6 mounted to the wheel 9 passes in close proximity to the sensor 4. The electrical pulses initiated by the sensor are counted and timed by the computer to estimate theoretical present speed of the bicycle. A cadence sensor 3 mounted to the chainstay 1 of the bicycle frame detects each revolution of a magnet 6 mounted to the crankarm and sends an electrical signal through cable 7 to the computer 2. The computer then calculates the actual cadence by timing the period between successive electrical signals from the sensor 3.
An LCD display on the bicycle displays the current bicycle speed and distance ridden. The rider can use this information to gauge the approximate time that the current trip or race will take to finish.
FIG. 1 shows a cyclometer computer display module 10 according to the present invention with enhanced performance display information. The face 12 of the cyclometer 10 is an LCD screen displaying information about the user's current and historical performance to provide the user with enhanced data about his current performance. While FIG. 1 shows all of the information available to be displayed, it is preferred that only some of the information appears at any one time to prevent information overload on the rider, as will be discussed below.
According to the first embodiment of the invention, the computer is in communication with a sensor (not shown) mounted on the front fork which counts revolutions of the front wheel in the manner discussed above with reference to FIG. 10. The time between electrical pulses from the sensor is calculated and compared to stored wheel calibration information to estimate the current theoretical speed of the bicycle, where
Speed=k * [Wheel Circumference/Time Interval]
Wheel Circumference is a measured constant, stored in memory;
Time Interval is the time between adjacent pulses, or the time for the wheel to make one complete revolution;
and k=3600/63,360, the conversion factor between inches per second and revolutions per minute (rpm) when the circumference is in inches, and the time interval is in seconds.
The current speed 14 is then displayed on the computer face informing the rider of his current performance. Preferably this information is always displayed when the bicycle is in motion, i.e. non-scrolled. The data is also used to determine the wheel revolutions per minute (rpm) which is stored for later use.
In a like manner, a trip timer is initiated by the start/stop button 16 to provide a frame of reference for additional calculations. The results of these additional calculations are displayed on the left side of the computer face, and are preferably displayed in groups of three at a time. The max speed (MAX), odometer (ODO), trip distance (DST), elapsed time (TM), average speed (AVS), and time of day (CLK) can be displayed for the rider's benefit. Initially the max speed, odometer, and distance are displayed, but by depressing the MODE button 18, the display can be caused to shift once (scrolled down) to display the odometer, trip distance, and elapsed time. This process is repeated until the bottom three values, time of day, average speed, and elapsed time, are displayed.
A separate set of calculated data is displayed below the current speed 14 relating to the actual or theoretical cadence of the rider. Depressing the MODE button while the time of day, average speed, and elapsed time are displayed transfers the scroll from the distance/speed display calculations to the gear/cadence calculations. The user can then scroll through available gear/cadence data, as will be discussed below, by depressing the start-stop button. Likewise, continuing to depress the MODE button will cause the display to "roll over" to display the max speed, odometer, and trip distance and so forth. One skilled in the art would also appreciate that a separate button could be used to cause scrolling of the gear/cadence data.
In order for the computer to calculate the cadence, the user must calibrate the computer for the bicycle. FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrate the manner in which the computer is calibrated.
The calibration mode is entered each time the power supply is reset, typically during insertion of a new battery into the computer, but could be initiated by a number of means, including shorting across the positive and negative leads of the computer (not shown), or other well known methods. When the computer display is in the calibration mode, the screen shown in FIG. 2 is displayed to the rider. "Calibration" appears at the top of the screen, and "A0.53" appears near the bottom right of the screen, representing the first gear to be set (the first front chainring) and the default value for that gear. While one skilled in the art would recognize that the calibration process could be performed by entering gear ratios into the computer rather than individual gear sizes, it is preferable to enter the individual gears to reduce the amount of calculations which must be performed by the user.
Beginning at step 312 of the flow diagram of FIG. 3, the process for entering the Front and Rear Gears of the bicycle into the computer is commenced. Proceeding to step 316, the register "n" is set to three representing the three possible front chainrings that may be present on the bicycle. Register "i" is then set to 1 in step 320, representing the first chainring of the bicycle to be entered. Proceeding to step 330, the current gear being entered into the computer is displayed.
The computer retrieves the value of n and i to determine the current gear. If n=3, then a front gear is being entered into the computer; otherwise a rear gear is being entered. If i=1, then the first largest gear is being entered, etc. The front chainrings are assigned arbitrary names A, B, and C, and the rear gears are assigned 1-8. Gears which are not present will be assigned the value of 0, as will be discussed below. An initial default value is also displayed with the gear, which value can be increased or decreased to match the value of the gear. Initially, the first gear "A" is displayed along with the value 53 as the default value for the largest front chainring. The user depresses the start/stop button in step 332 to decrease the value until the number of teeth on the respective chainring is shown. When the value reaches 0, depressing the start/stop button will cause the value to "roll over" to 150. One skilled in the art would recognize that other scrolling methods could be used to set the gears, such as holding in the start/stop button to reverse the scrolling direction, etc.
The value for the chainring is entered into the computer's registers by depressing the MODE button. A zero is entered if the respective gear being entered on the computer does not exist. For example, if the bicycle has two front chainrings, then 0 is entered for the third chainring value.
The entered value is then compared to zero in step 334. If the gear is not equal to zero, then the computer proceeds to step 336. The gear is compared to 60 to determine whether cadence data or gear data is being entered. If a value of 60 or greater is entered, then the computer enters a cadence alarm mode as will be discussed below.
If the gear entered is less than 60, then the gear register "i" is incremented by one in step 322. The value of i is then compared to n, the maximum number of gears, in step 324. If the value is less than n, then the computer returns to step 330 to enter the next gear value. If i is greater than n, then the computer must determine whether the front or rear gears were being entered. The value of n is compared to 8 in step 328. The value of n will be equal to 3 for front gears. If n is equal to 3, then n is set to 8 in step 318, representing the 8 possible gears on the rear freewheel (not shown). The gear register i is then reset to 1 in step 320 in preparation to enter the first rear gear in step 330 and 332 as discussed above.
If in step 328, the value of n was equal to 8, signifying that the rear gears were being entered, then the computer proceeds to step 340 to the cadence entry mode.
Or if in step 336 a value greater than 60 is entered, the computer breaks from the gear entry mode loop and into cadence entry mode, step 340. The value 60 is chosen as a value slightly higher than the largest standard front chainring sold which has 54 teeth.
The computer then proceeds to step 340, which displays the value entered. The value is entered into a first cadence register representing the maximum effective cadence by depressing the MODE button. The computer then proceeds to step 342 to enter the value for the minimum effective cadence value into a second cadence register. The computer then proceeds to step 346 to store all of the gear values and cadence values for use in calculations. In step 348, the calibration mode is ended and the normal display is commenced.
Beginning with step 400, FIG. 4 depicts a flow diagram showing the operation of the cadence display in the normal display mode which appears near the bottom right of the computer display. The computer 10 retrieves the current speed v and wheel revolutions per minute from memory in step 402, the calculation of which is discussed supra. The computer proceeds to step 404 to retrieve the front and rear gear values stored in memory. A table is generated showing each possible front and rear gear permutation, and the resulting gear ratio, where the ratio is defined as the number of teeth on the front gear (chainring) divided by the number of teeth. on the rear gear (cog). Each gear ratio value in the table is then converted into a theoretical cadence from the current speed. The. formula for this conversion is as follows: ##EQU1##
In other words, the cadence, or revolutions per minute of the pedals and the rider's feet is calculated as the number of revolutions per minute of the front wheel (which is theoretically the same as the rear wheel rpms) times the number of teeth on the rear gear divided by the number of teeth on the front gear. With this data calculated and tabulated, the computer can analyze in step 406 how many gear combinations produce a theoretical cadence which is between the minimum and maximum effective cadences.
The computer then must determine which gears to display on the screen. Initially in step 408, the computer determines if any fall. within the cadence range. If no gears fall within the range, the computer proceeds to step 420 to display the three smallest gear ratios and their respective cadences. If there is at least one gear combination resulting in a cadence within the range, the computer will select the gears which are closest to the middle of the range in step 412. If less than three gears match, then the gears producing cadences closest to the range are selected until at least three gears are selected. If no gears match the effective range, the three lowest gears and their theoretical cadence values are displayed as flashing values.
Next the computer determines if more than three gears fall within the effective cadence range in step 424. If there are not more than three, then the computer's selection process is complete and the three selected gears (matching or not matching the range are displayed). If there are more than three gears matching the cadence range, then the computer must determine whether a down arrow or an up arrow should be displayed to show the rider that additional gears are available that fall within the effective cadence range.
Step 414 determines whether any of the additional gears producing theoretical cadences falling within the range have a cadence less than the three selected cadences. If not, then an up arrow symbol is initiated by step 422. If there is at least one lower gear, then a down arrow is set in step 416. In step 418, the computer determines if there are also cadence values which fall within the range which are above the three selected cadences. If so, then the computer proceeds to step 422 to display an up arrow in addition to the down arrow to inform the rider that there are gears which produce cadences at the current speed which fall within the preselected effective cadence range. If so, then an up arrow is set in step 422, and proceeds to step 442. If not, the computer proceeds directly to step 442. The computer then displays the three selected cadences, their associated gears, and any appropriate up or down arrows in step 442.
The computer then proceeds to step 444 and begins the process over again. Preferably the cycle is restarted after a certain time lapse to preserve energy requirements of the system, as well as to smooth out the readings by avoiding rapid changes for minute time periods.
Returning to FIG. 1, the rider viewing the computer display 12, will see the three selected cadences in the lower right of the display 20. A symbol "A" or "B" is also shown to inform the rider of the front chainring in which the cadence can be accomplished. The up arrow 22 and down arrow 24 show the rider that the cadences can be scrolled using the start-stop button in the particular direction to show the rider additional cadences.
In this manner, the rider can select and preprogram in a cadence range such as 60 RPM to 90 RPM which represent the most efficient cadence range for the rider to employ. If the rider's cadence is too low, he is exerting too much effort with his legs, resulting in tiring, and a poor performance at the end of the ride. If the rider's cadence is too high, too much loading is placed on the lungs and heart of the rider, possibly causing the rider to enter an anaerobic state. Riding in an anaerobic state where the amount of oxygen entering the rider's bloodstream is insufficient; to support the energy requirements of the rider is inefficient and is only sustainable for brief periods of time. The overall effect; of the overly high cadence is that the rider tires by using up too much of the body's resources without seeing a comparable increase in work output.
A sensor on the computer determines if an optional cadence sensor is installed to provide the rider with additional. information. An add-on enhancement to the computer in the form of actual cadence information is also shown in FIG. 1. An additional. sensor may be located on the chainstay of the bicycle in close communication to a magnet attached to the crankarm of the bicycle. Electrical pulses caused by the magnet crossing the sensor are sent by a cable to the computer and compared to a timer tracking the elapsed time between successive passes of the magnet across the sensor. This information is used similar to the speed calculation to determine the actual cadence or revolutions per minute of the rider's feet. The calculation for the cadence in revolutions per minute (rpm) is as follows:
Actual cadence (rpm)=60/ time elapsed,
where the time elapsed is the number of seconds that the crank takes to move one revolution measured as the time between successive passes of the magnet past the sensor.
This information will be displayed when the optional sensor is in place, represented as the cadence CAD 70.A.19. Near the bottom center 26 of the computer display 12, the difference between the actual cadence and the middle effective cadence is displayed, where the middle effective cadence is calculated as the average of the maximum and minimum effective cadence. A positive or negative sign 27 is used to show whether the rider's cadence is above or below the middle effective cadence. In addition, a speaker 28 emits an audible, beeping alarm when the rider has an actual cadence outside of the effective cadence range.
In a second embodiment of the invention, an alternate method of sensing the actual cadence is disclosed. In FIG. 7, a handlebar with a shift sensor according to a second embodiment of the present invention is shown mounted on a bicycle. The handlebar 70 is shown in section with a shift lever/brake lever combination 72 mounted to a front portion of the handlebar by a clamp band 73. This type of shifting and braking lever 72 is well known in the art, available from companies such as SHIMANO and CAMPANGOLO. The front lever 74 tensions a front brake cable (not shown) when the lever is pulled straight back towards the handlebar 70. When the lever 74 is rotated parallel to the handlebar, a ratchet mechanism (not shown) tensions the front derailleur cable 78 to cause a derailleur (not shown) to move in one direction. When the front lever 74 is rotated in conjunction with the rear lever 76, the ratchet mechanism is moved in a reverse direction to release tension on the cable 78 in a well known fashion. A mirror image braking/shifting lever is mounted to the right side of the handlebar (not shown) which controls the rear brake and rear derailleur in a similar manner.
A shift sensor 80 mounted along the derailleur cable 78 between the ends of the cable housing 82 senses motion of the cable 78 within the sensor 80. The cable housing terminates at an existing cable stop welded to the bicycle frame and provides a static frame of reference against which cable travel can be measured. The operation of the cable position sensor is similar to the "OPTICAL GEAR INDICATOR" manufactured by SHIMANO (TM) as shown on page 46 of Bicycling Magazine published December 1994.
By mounting a sensor to the front derailleur cable and mounting another sensor to the rear derailleur cable, electrical signals can be generated and transmitted to the computer representing changes in the selected front or rear gear.
The computer receives the electrical impulse, converts the data according to a calibration chart stored in the computer's memory to a cable distance travelled. This value is then added or subtracted to the previous position of the cable. A cable position calibration table is then used to determine which front and rear gear number the chain is riding on. The computer then converts the gear numbers, A.17, B.19, or other alphanumeric representation of the current gear, to an actual gear ratio according to the stored table entered during the computer calibration as discussed above.
The computer can then use this data to determine the current actual cadence as follows: ##EQU2##
Where wheel rpm is the stored value calculated above, rear gear value is the number of teeth on the rear cog, and front gear value is the number of teeth on the front chainring or other gear size measurement such as diameter which would yield a gear ratio.
This cadence value is then displayed on the computer display 12 as the cadence CAD 70.A.19. In this mode, the number of the front chainring is also displayed, in the example shown in FIG. 1, "A" represents the first chainring shown at 29. Because the actual cadence is calculated with the sensed data, the computer can also display the difference between the actual cadence and the middle of the effective range. In the example shown in FIG. 1, a cadence differential of 10 rpm is shown in the bottom center 26 of the display 12.
In accordance with a third embodiment of the cadence sensing mechanism as shown in FIGS. 8, a shift sensor for use with a down tube shifter is shown. The shifter 90 controls one of the two derailleurs in a well known manner by controlling the tension of the derailleur cable linking the shifter to the derailleur (not shown). The shifter 90 typically has a lever 92 attached to an indexing ratchet 94 which controls the number and length of the shifts. A bolt 96 connects the shifting elements and a washer to the frame as shown in FIG. 9.
A shift sensor 99 (FIG. 8) is added according to the third embodiment of the present invention to determine the position of the shifter. The sensor 99 sends an electrical signal to the computer representing the angular change in position of the shift lever. A calibration table converts the current position of the shift lever into a gear number. By using a shift lever sensor on the front and rear shifter, the current front and rear gears on which the chain is riding can be determined, and the current cadence can be calculated from the current wheel rpms and gear ratio table as discussed above. One skilled in the art would appreciate that in addition to an in line cable position sensor similar to that shown, a ratchet/rotation sensor can also be employed with the shift lever/brake lever discussed previously as well as with a handlebar thumb shifter or GRIP SHIFT (TM) shifters.
Mounting of the computer to the bicycle is also improved according to the present invention. Prior art devices as shown in FIG. 10, were mounted by a clamp band 8 mounted to the handlebar or stem of the bicycle. A bracket 62 as shown in FIG. 6 receives a lower dovetail 68 of the existing computer. Contacts 64 positioned in the base of the bracket 62, integral with the band 8 (FIG. 10), provide communication between the computer and the sensor cable 5 (FIG. 10). A detent 66 provided at one edge of the bracket mates with a depression (not shown) in the existing computer 2 to secure the computer 2 to the bracket.
According to the present invention, a converter plate 162 as shown in FIG. 5 is provided with a dovetail 167 which mates with a slot 61 in the existing bracket 62. Contacts 164 in the converter plate extend through the bracket and are in electrical communication with the existing contacts 64 when the converter plate 162 is installed on the existing bracket 62. The bottom of the computer 10 according to the present invention is provided with a dovetail 168 which mates with the converter bracket to secure the computer 10 to the bracket 162. This allows the computer 10 to be installed as a replacement to an existing computer and to receive electrical signals from the existing sensor. One skilled in the art would appreciate that the dovetail and slot which have been shown to have a rectangular outer flange, could be made to any convenient shape as long as the dovetail and slot mate securely together.
FIG. 6 shows an alternate embodiment bracket 262 which allows two computers to be installed on the existing bracket 62. A computer according to the current invention 10 is installed on one side of the dual, tandem converter bracket 262 and a separate computer 110 either according to the present invention or the existing computer is mounted on the other side of the bracket. The dovetail slot 268 of the bracket can be dimensioned to receive the dovetail 68 of the computer 110 desired to be mounted on the bracket 262. Contacts 264 provided on each side of the dual converter bracket 262 and connected in parallel to contacts 64 to receive information from the sensor 5. One skilled in the art would recognize that the information received by the computer could include additional sensed information such as from a cadence sensor mounted on the chainstay of the bicycle.

Sights in Crete
Crete is of the largest Greek islands, which attracts numerous tourists with a pleasant sea climate, beautiful nature and gentle warm sea. However, it has been said that the island you can look at the boring ruins left over after Cretan-Minoan civilization existed from 2700 to 1400. BC.
It’s a misbelief! The sights of Crete are of its main landmarks. Sights in Crete are located almost every corner, as it is not ancient buildings but also unimaginable natural beauty.
In its territory, besides the fact that the island is washed by four seas, the majestic mountain ranges resonate with the bays and lagoons, and the hills covered with olive trees with endless serpentine and mountain streams create landscapes worthy of paintings.
This island really knows how to surprise, since visiting the sights of Crete, its historical buildings and monuments will leave indelible impressions and unforgettable memories.
Of course, the main sights of Crete are associated with ancient Greek mythology, its gods, muses and brave heroes. of the most popular places to visit is the Palace of Knossos located in Heraklion. According to legend, the Minotaur himself walked through the labyrinths of the palace.
The list of the best sights of Crete includes:
- Temple of Apollo, dating from the II century BC;
- The monasteries of Gouverneto and Agia Triada, preserved to our days, constructed in the Renaissance style, which are located the Akrotiri-Chania peninsula;
- The caves of Matala, Milatos and Melidoni, which served in their time as housing for ancient people, as well as shelter places during the battle with the Turks;
- Elounda Bay and Spinalonga Island;
- Balos Lagoon and its stunning pink beach;
- The palace of Agia Triada located near Phaistos;
- Archaeological Museum of Heraklion.
When planning to visit Crete, the sights should be included into the list of places required for viewing.
To see the sights of Crete — is the dream of every tourist, but, unfortunately, a vacation is not always enough to visit all these places.
You can conditionally divide them into:
|Picturesque Gorges of Ha, red butterflies, Sarakina, the cave of Zeus, the islands of Koufonisi and Gramvousa, the large Anopolis plateau and many others.||Venetian harbour and Koules fortress, the ancient city of Elefterna, the majestic medieval fortresses, the Cretan Aquarium.|
You can also find the photos of travellers who visited the island and dozens of places the forums request «sights in Crete». With their help, you can decide where exactly you want to go first.
There are several ways to visit the sights of Crete: independently, by renting a car and taking a map of the island or ordering a guide.
Visiting the sights of Crete with a guide, you get a lot of impressions, capacious and non-trivial information about each place and forget about all sorts of organizational troubles. It remains to charge the camera to take as many photos of the sights of Crete as possible.
Prices for visiting various museums, temples, palace parks and other architectural monuments usually do not exceed 10 € and in some places are free for children.
By contacting Moysidis Travel Company you can not have a first-class rest, but also visit the sights in Crete. We guarantee that you will be able to see all the interesting sights in Crete, because we individually work with each client.
You can contact us at: +30 699 280 03 29, +49 157 755 932 78 or leave a request in active form our website after which our manager will call you back.

The past five Mondays I hiked up or walked around Pilot Butte and shared my tale.
Sunday evening, 5/15/16, I returned from a four-day quilt retreat at Sew-N-Go Quilt Retreat with my longtime “Quilt Sisters” from Oregon, Washington and California. Monday I spent recovering from my drive and unpacking (unpacking did involve trying to figure out what to do with the new fabric and quilting tools I acquired while at the quilt retreat…other quilters are bad influences!).
So I skipped Pilot Butte on Monday. I am not sure if the 2 mile walk with Terry “the Quilting Husband” and the dogs made up for it, but at least I did something besides fondling my new fabric purchases.
I will share my adventures related to quilt retreating in my posts the rest of this week, but I wanted to follow up on last week’s post The Monday, Post “Yard Bark Mulching” in which I discussed “xeriscaping” (low water landscaping with native plants) and laying down endless bark mulch.
One of the tierneycreates blog readers asked to see photos and here they are:
Xeriscaped Front Yard (with fresh hemlock bark mulch)
Another example of a Central Oregon xeriscaped yard from my neighborhood (they used rocks instead of bark mulch):

As I mentioned, the rest of the week I will share stories and photos from the quilt retreat I attended.
Currently I listening to the audiobook – The Path: What Chinese Philosophers Can Teach Us About the Good Life by Michael Puett and Christine Gross-Loh.
Parts of this book seem fairly esoteric, while other parts are deeply profound and very accessible. If you can be patient through some of the more scholarly sections (the author is a Harvard professor) you will be rewarded with timeless insights into human nature from ancient Chinese philosophers.
I feel I grow more enlightened by listening to this excellent audiobook.
The disease of men is that they neglect their own fields and go to weed the fields of others. – Mencius

They came from all over the county, they heard what The Gathering 2013 can do for community spirit in Co Longford and they gathered together some of the best ideas to promote the county. The end result will be to extend the hand of friendship across the world and showcase what this wonderful little county of ours has to offer when next year’s festivities get under way.
The Longford Gathering 2013 event took place at the Longford Arms Hotel last Tuesday night where representatives from the National Executive told all those present what next year’s event was all about and how to bring communities, parishes and the local diaspora overseas together, for what is guaranteed to be a very special year of celebrating all that is good about the localities in which we live. The ideas ranged from an international women’s day to celebrate the achievements of the first ever Irish Ban Garda Sarah McGuinness from Longford town, to literary treasure hunts celebrating the life and times of Maria Edgeworth, Padraic Colum and Oliver Goldsmith; the gathering together of the most internationally elite architects and conservationists to St Mel’s Cathedral and abundance of music festivals and cultural events, guaranteed to place Longford firmly on the table of best destinations in Ireland.
Longford native and broadcaster with RTE, Fran McNulty was MC on the night. Mr McNulty spoke about how he along with three other Longfordians in RTE decided to run the Longford Marathon earlier this year and how all four were now in the process of encouraging their fellow workers to run in next year’s marathon and see for themselves all that Longford has to offer. “That is how The Gathering 2013 works,” he said, adding that it was about speaking to people directly and asking them what they would like to do. “It is about people coming together and reaching out to family and friends; it’s about celebrating all the very best that this county has to offer, but the challenge will be to find that something that is unique and different.”
Mr McNulty went on then to speak about the ideas that emerged during last Tuesday’s event. “Firstly it was a very positive event and it was evident that those in attendance had a great pride in Longford,” he explained further. “Secondly, there was a real sense of a we-can-do attitude and I hope that people will continue feeding in their ideas. We have so much to offer in Longford; we have natural infrastructure that we do not exploit such as the canal and in actual fact there was a fantastic idea submitted where by visitors to Longford would be provided with an opportunity to experience ‘A Day in the Life on the Canal’. People were getting very excited about what could be achieved as the event wore on.”
County Mayor, Sean Farrell was also part of the proceedings last Tuesday night. “We have so much to offer in Longford, from Loch Gowna in the north to Lough Ree in the south,” he said. “As recently as last week, there were 1,500 people in Newtowncashel for the Celebrity Banisteoir match and they were people, who were not just from Longford; they were people who had an interest in the event and came to Longford to see it. This proves that it can be done and that we can do it.”
A Longford Steering Group has been established and viable ideas will feed back through the committee, which will then determine the events for The Longford Gathering 2013. Is féider linn!

MACBETH, Festival Theatre. Henry Godinez's outdoor staging of the Scottish tragedy is as rough-hewn as the dead limbs and menacing rocks of Geoffrey M. Curley's pseudobarbaric set. Where violence is endemic, it's useless to resist. Kevin Gudahl's Macbeth does try, but he's soon destroyed by a predatory ambition given apparent supernatural sanction. His motivators--three witches and a wife (coldly and sadly played by Lisa Tejero)--open up a killing field for this villain eager to confuse destiny with prophecies.
Festival Theatre's traditional production--its first Macbeth in 25 years of Shakespeare under the stars--drives home the bitter isolation that comes with illicit power. Macbeth murders more than sleep; he exposes Scotland to horrors once unthinkable, now common. Against that extreme, the stalwart, energetic performances of Brian Hamman and Ned Mochel as the good guys seem so much sound and fury. Only at the end does Mochel's Macduff rise to Macbeth's savage vigor. Less successful is Godinez's idea of having Lady Macbeth play the messenger who warns Lady Macduff of her coming killers: by this point the wicked wife is crazed with guilt and confined to the castle.
Barbara Niederer's competent costumes range from hideous masks for the weird sisters to sumptuous but ill-gotten robes for the Macbeths. David Gipson's lighting separates the occult from the ordinary. Macbeth may face new enemies here--noise from jet planes, dogs, boom cars, sirens, firecrackers, and an ice cream truck--but you can't keep a bad man down. --Lawrence Bommer

BRISTOL - With any chances of sharing in a conference title gone with Fridayâ€™s loss to Newington, the Bristol Central football team now must turn toward a strong finish to what has been an up-and-down year so that the young Rams can move forward to next season on a positive note.
With only one healthy senior left in the regular starting lineup, the final two games must serve as a positive learning curve for a talented group of underclassmen.
â€śWe have to get in gear for those last two games,â€ť head coach Jeff Papazian said after Fridayâ€™s tough 21-16 loss at home. â€śWe have to take look to figure out what went wrong and use it to build on.â€ť
Barring any unforeseen changes, the Rams will return virtually their entire line up for next season, and closing out this year on a winning note will be a big plus in the offseason. Central is 4-4 after Friday nightâ€™s loss and needs to pick it up, especially on the offensive side, if they hope to end the year with a winning record.
The Rams again played tough defense for much of the game against Newington, but a lack of consistent offense, especially in the second half, allowed the Indians to wear down the defensive unit.
â€śUnfortunately the offense kind of got bottled up in the second half,â€ť Papazian said. â€śIn a game like that, if we had been able to pick up a first down or two it would have changed the momentum and allowed us to keep the defense off the field for a little longer. We left the defense out there a little too long and they were able to take advantage.â€ť
Fridayâ€™s game was a battle from the start with both teams trying to capitalize on what they do best.
Central got its starting quarterback back after a two-game absence and took advantage by showcasing the sophomore speedster. Victor Rosa ran for a 63-yard touchdown on the Ramsâ€™ first possession and finished the night with 168 yards on 18 carries.
Newington countered with the combination of running back John Amaning, who had 140 yards rushing, and quarterback Nick Pestrichello, who hit on 9-of-14 passes for 115 yards and three touchdowns. All three scores came on the same corner pattern from less than 20 yards out.
The Indians had been averaging well over 30 points a game coming into Fridayâ€™s contest and the Rams adopted a bend-but-donâ€™t-break attitude that kept them well below that average. Central forced a fumble at the 1-yard line to stop one Newington drive and was able to slow the running game enough to force the Indians to punt the ball away.
But in the end, the Rams couldnâ€™t stop the short passes to the corner from inside the redzone and that proved to be the difference.
â€śIt was two pretty good teams going at it pretty hard all night long,â€ť Papazian said. â€śThey made a couple of big plays at the end and we didnâ€™t.â€ť
Offensively, Central struggled to find a balance behind the running of Rosa. Tre Jones came up with a couple of big runs, including 37 yarder to set up the final score, but for much of the game the Indians were able to contain everyone but Rosa.
The Rams were not able to get any kind of aerial attack going in the game until the final plays when Rosa hit two straight passes to Shawn Rodriguez for the final touchdown. Rosa completed just 3 of his 11 passes for 33 yards. Central will need to find better balance in the attack going forward as it prepares to face a couple of pretty good defensive units over the next few weeks in Conard and Bristol Eastern.
Trailing by five after that last score with three minutes to play, the Rams tried desperately to get one more chance with the ball. An attempted onside kick failed to go the necessary 10 yards, but the defense came up with three stops to set up a chance to get the ball back with two minutes to go. On fourth down, Pestrichello made a big push to get a first down by inches and Newington was able to run out the clock.
The Rams wrap up the season with an interdivisional crossover against Conard in the home finale on Friday night before taking on Bristol Eastern at Muzzy Field on Thanksgiving morning.
Conard comes into the game with a record of 5-3 after a big win over South Windsor last week and will be another stiff challenge for the Rams. The Chieftains have won three in a row since being shut out by Simsbury and seem to have gotten their offense in gear after struggling to score in the early part of the season. They will be another big test for the Central defense.

Catena Media announces acquisition of Lineups.com
Catena Media has revealed its most recent acquisition of the US-facing online sports affiliate business Lineups.com in a deal worth $39.6 million. This price will be payed in cash through three different installments during a two-year time period. This includes a down payment of $25 million, $9.6 million one year after the deal is closed and then $5 million after another year has passed.
An extra cash payment worth $500,000 is also needed if there are some requirements that are fulfilled within the first three years after the transaction is done, such as if New York ratifies sports betting during that time.
Lineups.com focuses on betting predictions and analytics, as it offers confirmed line-ups for all the major sports leagues in the United States including the NBA, NFL, Major League Baseball, NHL and more… During the 1-year period leading up to April the 30th of this year, Lineups.com witnessed $7.5 million in sales. Catena further mentioned that this takeover will improve its EBITDA starting from today.
Furthermore, Sam Shefrin, who is the founder of Lineups.com, will still be involved in the business and will serve as an exclusive consultant to Catena Media.
Chief executive of Catena Media, Michael Daly, commented:
“The acquisition of Lineups.com strengthens Catena Media’s leading position in the growing US betting market with a complementary product that fits perfectly into our existing US portfolio. It gives us a second, even stronger, national sports betting affiliation site, alongside thelines.com. This will allow us to capture more market share across North America, as well as to take advantage of shared tools across multiple Catena Media sites.”
Just last month, the firm stated that it was anticipating to report a year-on-year rise in its adjusted EBITDA and its revenue for Q1, which has been massively aided by a strong performance in the States.
Revenue for the period leading up to the 31st of March is expected to be somewhere between $47.1 million and $48.6 million, which might account for a rise between 46% and 51%, as the adjusted EBITDA could possibly be up to $30.1 million.

Annual Report provides information on the equity, effectiveness and efficiency of government services
The Productivity Commission will release the annual Report on Government Services (RoGS) over the next two weeks, starting with the housing and homelessness data.
The RoGS provide information on the equity, effectiveness and efficiency of government services in Australia.
Public housing has decreased
According to the RoGS data, the WA state government’s net recurrent expenditure on social housing was $627.3 million in 2018-19, a decrease of $87M from investment of $714.3 million in 2017-18.
Furthermore, the number of public housing households in Western Australia has decreased over the last decade, with 31,432 households in 2010 and 30,558 households in 2019. There has been an increase in the number of households in community housing from 3,561 households to 7,374 in 2019.
The proportion of public rental stock occupied in Western Australia was 95.5 per cent for public housing and 92.5 per cent for community housing, with 89.1 per cent of total Indigenous community housing rental stock being occupied. Occupancy rates are influenced by tenancy turnover as well as by housing supply and demand — dwellings that have, for example, reached the end of their useful life may require major redevelopment or replacement before being allocated to a new household.

Recurrent WA state government expenditure on specialist homelessness services in Western Australia for 2018-19 was $77.7 million — 98 per cent of which was provided to agencies to deliver specialist homelessness services.

Liverpool have reportedly received a bid from Juventus for Roberto Firmino.
Firmino, 30, has enjoyed seven successful years at Liverpool where he’s helped the club win the Premier League and UEFA Champions League.
The Reds currently have Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota for the central forward role which has left Firmino struggling for regular game time in recent seasons.
The Italian side have been linked with a move for the Brazilian – Tutto Juve claims that Juventus have ‘presented’ a formal offer of £19.5M.
Jurgen Klopp: "For people with football knowledge, I'm pretty sure they'll write books about the way Bobby interpreted the false-nine position." 📖🇧🇷
Liverpool have Salah, Diaz, Jota & now Nunez. But never forget their most underrated hero, Roberto Firmino 🙌 pic.twitter.com/CPbVXv4o87
— GiveMeSport (@GiveMeSport) July 23, 2022
Latest transfer news on Firmino
Juventus have targeted Firmino but it seems their bid of £19.5M has failed to convince Liverpool; we may see an increased bid come in before the end of the window.
According to the Liverpool Echo, the Reds have no desire to let their fan-favourite leave despite the forward entering the final year of his deal.
Despite that, he had previously outlined that he saw his future at Liverpool and is hoping for a new deal.
“I’m very happy here. I’m grateful to God that I’m here playing for a great club with great players, winning titles. And my will is to stay,” Firmino declared.
“My wish is to stay here. I want to be here. I’m happy here. So that’s all I can say, I want to stay.”
His 35 appearances in all competitions last season was his lowest since arriving on Merseyside but he remains a key, experienced figure in the squad.
Should Firmino stay?
Liverpool fans adore their Brazilian forward and are surely hoping that he remains at the club this season.
After all, Jota has already tweaked a hamstring ruling him out of the opening few games leaving Nunez as the only available central forward.
Firmino offers that depth – even if he isn’t the player he once was. He still holds the record for the most goals in a single season by a Brazilian and still has something to offer this team.
He still managed 11 goals and five assists last season despite hamstring and muscular issues that combined to reduce his game time.
