Construction of a border pipeline-jumper between the gas networks of Serbia and Hungary, designed to pump 6 billion cubic meters. m. of raw materials per year, continues. However, Budapest decided to postpone the commissioning of the expansion of this section to 8,5 billion cubic meters. m of gas per year from October 1, 2022 to October 1, 2023. Hungary once again stood in the way of the Turkish Stream, preventing the flow of gas to Austria and the energy project reaching its full capacity.
The main section will be commissioned as planned on October 1, 2021. But under the pretext of US sanctions against the Turkish Stream, the Hungarians decided to bargain for the best conditions from the Russians and themselves ruined their own “open season” in collecting applications for the distribution of capacity for future expansion. As a result, they simply did not have time to meet the beginning of the next heating season, so they postponed the construction time. This is evidenced by the "gestures" of the Hungarian GTS operator FGSZ and the Hungarian state regulator MEKH.
FGSZ published the MEKH decree, which clearly states that the state regulator decided to postpone the construction at the request of the GTS operator itself. At the same time, the state regulator clarified that due to fears of falling under restrictions under the US law "On Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions" (CAATSA), the Hungarian GTS operator itself stopped the process of collecting applications. To be on the safe side, the Hungarians even wrote that gas from Azerbaijan could flow through the aforementioned pipeline in two years, though without details.
It should be noted that Hungary's falling under US sanctions because of the Turkish Stream is highly doubtful. The thing is that this gas pipeline, which runs along the bottom of the Black Sea and consists of two lines, ends at a hub in the European part of Turkey. This gas pipeline does not pass through the territory of Bulgaria, Serbia and other Balkan and Central European countries.
Raw materials are pumped through the expanded national gas networks of these states, which in fact have nothing to do with Turkish Stream. Simply in the media space, to simplify the understanding of citizens, the term "Turkish Stream" is used, which supposedly runs from Russia to Austria. But from a legal point of view, this is not the case.

Hawaii isn’t all beaches, sunsets, and palm trees. One of the first things to strike me each time I visit the lush (Hilo) side of the Big Island is the abundance of wild flora considered “exotic” back home. Here, nobody thinks twice about roadside hibiscus, bougainvillea, impatiens, or orchids that would (at the very least) require a trip to Home Depot and months of nurturing to enjoy on the Mainland.
I found this orchid while wandering the trail at the back of Lava Tree State Park in Puna, south of Hilo. Directly across the path from me was a tree draped in yellow hibiscus; just around the next bend the jungle opened to reveal a field of pink orchids stretching a hundred yards to more jungle beyond. This lone orchid was a harbinger of what lay ahead, but before moving on I took the opportunity to isolate it against a background of arcing ferns.
Bouncing between beach sunrise/sunset and rainforest macro scenes can lead to visual whiplash. But the same compositional rules still apply: Find your subject, identify a complementary foreground and/or background, and eliminate distractions. Composing this scene, I thought the dark green ferns made an ideal background for this brilliant pink orchid and carefully positioned myself so the the arcing fronds framed the orchid without intersecting it. Exposing for the bright bloom turned the deepest shadows a natural dark forest-green velvet backdrop. To prevent the intricacies of ferns’ lacework fronds from competing with the orchid, I opted for a large aperture that softened everything but the stamen.
When I photograph flowers in the wild I always like to get a bit of orange or at least a little of some contrasting color to break up all the green. I’m thinking about getting a piece of velvet that is partly tie died with a little orange as a back drop. Perfect composition in this flower photo
Cindy….do you share your photos…love to see artist contributions, esp. artist who understate their works….
Garty, do you share your students works…I love your works….would like to see what your students capture while with you
That’s something I’ve thought about doing, but don’t yet have a mechanism in place.

Residents pear that the authorities may demolish the entire Slum in next few days and evict the slum dwellers from the site.

Voters were asked to eliminate one sales tax and one development district, create another development district and—oh yes, by the way—elect a mayor and two council members.
And you voted on up to three different ballot questions depending on where you lived within the old new city limits, new city limits, extra-territorial jurisdiction or planet of your choice.
Well, maybe not the last one. But it was as confusing a situation as Rockdale city voters have ever faced. And that’s not anyone’s fault. There was no other way to set this one up. You know the old cliché about omelets.
Here’s what will happen now that the voters have had their say:
• The Rockdale Hospital District will no longer collect any sales tax.
• Rockdale’s new Municipal Development District (MDD) will now collect all the sales tax which has been going to the hospital district.
• The talk of “new city limits” or “old city limits” ceases, at least so far as the city in concerned.
• Rockdale now has a revenue stream it has needed for many years to try and attract jobs to our area.
It’s difficult to predict just how much will be available for the new, the one and the only MDD to use but if collections stayed the same as over the past year it would be in the neighborhood of $265,000.
Let’s not forget a couple of factors. The hospital district board voluntarily elected to give up the rest of the sales tax. That’s a tax, by the way, voluntarily imposed by Rockdale citizens to help out Richards Memorial Hospital.
And now those citizens have come to the aid of their community again.—M.B.

As much as I like Joan, and her suits, I don’t understand how someone who can’t type has a Facebook profile. Surely there should be a group for Joan more than a fake profile? I mean Facebook try hard to make the profiles genuine.
I’m disappointed with the candidates too. Not just Howlin, the big mad breeder. Will they have a “Who’s got the best zimmerframe?” competition in the hustings too?
And watching how some of them operated the night of the election count and their nasty, bitter and deluded supporters HELLO SUPPORTERS OF JOE COSTELLO!, I worry that the party still has the people’s front of judea attitude to politics and I’d rather seem them agree on something, agree to compromise and then drive hard to take the lead in progressive politics.

Having commenced farming in the hills of a small town named Semi Vicoli located in Abruzzo Italy during the 1930s, it was here the family set up the original vineyard. During the periods post the second world war the family left their home town and migrated to Australia.
In 2018 Dino Giammarino situated his winery and vineyard in St Andrews, Yarra Valley, whilst his parents Nicoletta and Vittorio have their vineyard in the Mornington Peninsula.
The choice of establishing vineyards in Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Valley were due to the diversity in climatic conditions and the similarities to Italy they both shared.
With a passion for Italian varietals such as Sangiovese, Nebbiolo, Montepulciano and Fiano along with a love of Shiraz, Pinot and Chardonnay, Giammarino Wines' intention is to continue in the journey of creating wines from their lovingly cared-for vineyards.
"Una settimana di pranzi" ( A week of lunches) - Mon 12 November to Fri 16 November
Partnering with Second Home Restaurant and Baranows Emporium Italian Whisky Importers, both located in central Eltham, Giammarino Wines will host a week long, Italian-inspired lunch gatherings held at Second Home with accompanying Italian Wines supplied by Giammarino and Puni Italian Whisky supplied by Baranows Emporium. There will also be Italian desserts and Coffee Martinis. Alongside the lunches there will be non-amplified opera singers, vintage Vespas and Ferraris to view in the car park, with the restaurant being furnished in Italian-influenced décor.
Location : 21 Brougham St, Eltham VIC 3095
Maximum locations for each lunch is 55 seats so bookings are essential!
"Giammarino Wines Open Day" - Wed 21 November
Giammarino vineyard and winery in St Andrews has plantings of Italian varieties Sangiovese, Nebbiolo and Fiano which they also use to make their single estate wines from.
Take a journey through an Italian vineyard, learning about:
- Piedemonte where Nebbiolo is from
- Tuscany where Sangiovese is from
- Campania where Fiano is from
Giammarino Wines will be telling family stories including a special mention about one of the family members who brought the first cappuccino machine from Naples to Port Melbourne Pier.
There will also be a comedy quiz with questions such as:
- Name a Famous Dino ( e.g. Ferrari, Dean Martin etc)
- What are the origins of Margarita Pizza ( Queen Margarita)
Giammarino Wines will be serving pasta and pizzas throughout the day.
Your hosts, Nicoletta and Vittorio Giammarino, will be choosing their favourite Italian songs from when they were growing up and these will be playing all day in the back ground.
Location: Giammarino Winery and Vineyard 125 Rifles Range Road St Andrews.
Giammarino Wines will be open every Saturday (10, 17 and 24 November) so come and share a journey through the family's vineyard and Italy.

September: Autumn, Warmth, Routine, Reflection
This book was difficult to put down. It’s a truly enjoyable read; so well written. It’s a post-apocalyptic novel but is also so much more; it’s a story about love, connection and what it means to be alive. If you’re looking for a new book to read go for this one.
My Local Library
I’ve been living in Canada Water for 18 months now and it was only just over 3 months ago that I signed up to join the library. Not only is my library in a stunning building and beautiful inside but more importantly it provides me access to 1,000s of books for free. Since then I’ve currently borrowed and read 22 books – that’s a lot of money I’ve saved! I only wished I’d joined sooner! If you’re not sure where your nearest library is and you’re in the UK check out this website.
This TV show is available on Netflix with season 3 having just been released. The show revolves around 3 main characters as they navigate motherhood as working women. It’s absolutely hilarious. A super funny, easy watching, binge-worthy show.
Kate’s back catalogue of recipes is amazing – there isn’t one recipe I’ve made of her’s that I haven’t loved. Very much based on whole foods her recipes are vegan or can be easily made vegan. I’ve been a bit lacking in the recipe creation this month whilst I’ve been working and completing a diploma so her recipes have been wonderful to help me explore new dishes and find easy meals to make.

Karen Atuhire, soon after she began treatment on anti-retroviral drugs.
NPR's Brenda Wilson reports on efforts in Uganda to provide medications to people with HIV or AIDS. Just a couple of years ago, federal officials said that Africans wouldn't be able to follow the strict regimens required to make the drugs work. But experience is showing that not only can the regimen be simplified, Africans are more scrupulous about staying on the drug schedule than Americans. In fact, Wilson reports it's become clear that the challenge in treating AIDS in Africa is not culture, education or a complicated regimen; it's money.


Ukraine’s January elections under-funded?
The country's presidential elections on 17th January may face a huge under-funding problem, according to a member of Ukraine's Central Election Commission, which is responsible for organizing the polls.
The Commission member says only around thirty percent of the funding needed to hold the ballot has been made available.
The country’s Treasury has funded 73% per cent of the roughly $17.5 million required for the elections, according to the preliminary state data.
Earlier the commission had warned that the election could be disrupted if it doesn't get sufficient funding.
Ukraine has been torn by political scandals and infighting between the two former Orange revolution allies, President Viktor Yushchenko and Prime Minister Yulia Timoshenko.
Former Prime Minister Yanukovich is leading the polls, which suggest he will face Timoshenko in the run-off.
The country has been battered in the recession, with its economy expected to shrink by 15% in 2010.

Quilters Take Over Convention Center
Jake Judd | Jun 13, 2018 AT 5:04 pm
(KNSI) - Sewing enthusiasts are flocking to St. Cloud for the largest quilting convention in the state.
The Minnesota Quilters Association chose the River's Edge Convention Center as the site of the 40th annual show. The event is expected to draw around 8,000 people through Saturday.
Janelle Coy, with St. Cloud Sewing, has been coming to the convention for more than 20 years and says quilting is a great activity.
"It’s the creativity, the self-satisfaction of a beautiful job well done and the challenge to better yourself each and every time."
She says 95-percent of everything she makes, she gives away as gifts.
Dawn Shuck drove more than 700 miles from Branson, Missouri, for the convention and says there's just something special about quilting.
"I think it's the camaraderie, women getting together and doing something that they love."
She's been coming to the convention for 10 years.
The quilts on display are judged throughout the event in several categories, with creators as young as 8 years old.
On Thursday, Mayor Dave Kleis will select the official St. Cloud quilt for the city.
Daily entrance to the expo is $14 for non-members of the Minnesota Quilters Association, $12 for members, $5 for kids age 8 to 12 and kids under 8 are free.
The expo hall is open 9 to 6 Thursday and Friday, and from 9 to 4 on Saturday.
In celebration of the event, Beaver Island Brewing Company has partnered with the quilters to release a Special Edition Quilters Beer that will be available during the conference at the Beaver Island Brewing taproom
This is the sixth time since 2000 that the Minnesota Quilters Association has held their annual event in St. Cloud.
Next year, the event will be in Rochester and then back in St. Cloud in 2020.

The Ondo state Caucus of the house representative in the National Assembly has sought the intervention of the Federal ministry of works and housing on the rehabilitation of Federal government roads in the state.
The lawmakers, who met with the honourable Minister for works and housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola and his minister of state on Tuesday called his attention to the deplorable states of many Federal roads linking the state.
Speaking through their caucus leader, Hon. Mayowa Akinfolarin during the meeting, they noted that some bad federal roads in the state have been abandoned for over thirteen years, and have constituted major security threats to hundreds of travelers. He further appealed to the Minister for his personal intervention on the roads.
Also speaking at the event, Honourable Ade Adeogun representing Akoko southeast/southwest federal constituency in the state said the ministry has not initiated the construction of any road in the state, since inception of the President Buhari administration, while adding that the bad roads have become striking points for armed robbers and kidnappers in the state.
In his reaction, Fashola thanked the Honourables for initiating the meeting, saying it gives a platform to discuss challenges and possible solutions between the two arms of government.
He however blamed the situations of the bad roads on paucity of funds, and difficulties in paying contractors.
He urged the lawmakers to assist the ministry to deliver better on its mandate, by reaching consensus on specific roads of top priority, so as to concentrate resources on them and get expected results.
Other honourable members also present at the meeting include Honourable Abiola Makinde, the deputy chairman, house committee on Federal Character, Hon. Omolafe Adedayo, Hon. Oluwatimilehin Adelegbe and Hon. Tajudeen Adefisoye.

By the way, Eugene has recently shared a picture of Yulia Snigir, his current lover and mother of his eighth child — Theodore. Now, when the passions of his departure from the family subsided a bit, the artist can afford to share details of his personal life. Maybe soon the actor will present to the public and little Theodore, whom they wife and yet hide from the public.

Elizmi Haze Spits Fire With Her Brand New Track “No Fight”
At Indie Star Radio, we receive hundreds of submissions every single week for music to be played and featured on our station.
Once in a while, a track comes along that makes us sit up and take notice. Sometimes it is the uniqueness of the track itself, or the talent that jumps from the file. Sometimes it is simply the “It” factor. “No Fight” by Elizmi Haze has “It”.
Many of you reading this may be wondering what “It” is. I can’t help but think back to Faith No More’s “Epic” asking the question over and over. Quite simply, the “It” factor has no real definition. However, for the sake of argument, let’s take a look at what that could be in regards to this particular track.
It could be the opening, a hook laden delicately placed blend of synths leading into a cymbal crescendo that introduces us to Elizmi Haze. Her voice is reminiscent of Dua Lipa with an almost sultry quality and a palpable power. It could be the transition to the body of the song, with perfectly placed bass drops followed by a reggaeton beat that distinguishes the song as something unique and definitely something to move to. From this solid foundation, Elizmi makes empowering statements with her words, fiercely pleading for peace in situations where violence could so easily erupt.
From there comes what I feel is the most fierce and real part of the song. Elizmi breaks into a vicious rap verse where her British accent powerfully spits bars that any rap aficionado can appreciate. This verse fits perfectly in the whole idea of the song; an intense plea to do the right thing, and shows that Elizmi Haze is not only a great singer, but creative and willing to stretch the boundaries of what “pop” means. The song concludes going back to showcasing Elizmi’s vocal talents on full display.
So in conclusion, perhaps “It” is not one thing, but the sum of the parts. I do know one thing for certain; Elizmi Haze is definitely one to watch, follow, and admire.

As the convoy reached Panabo, the riders had the opportunity to open up their throttles and enjoy the open road flanked by tall palm trees. The twisty mountain roads of Mati also served as treat, having a beautiful ocean view in the horizon. Some just had to stop to take time taking in the scenery. One attraction in the area is the view of an island the locals call “sleeping dinosaur” as its sshaape resembles that of a giant reptile sprawled on the sea.
Upon arriving at the venue, the guests were greeted by colorful tents and a sumptous lunch feast. Yamaha facilitated some friendly games before giving everyone some free time in the afternoon. At the dinner party, a Motoworld representative raffled off some of their products. Motoworld is a motorcycle gear and apparel retail chain currently operating in Luzon and Visayas.

Valérie Plante, who was sworn in as mayor of Montreal today, said she will ask the provincial government for the power to levy a tax on residential real estate purchases made by foreigners. Plante wants Montreal to be able to impose a foreign buyers’ tax in case the housing market overheats.
Plante has spoken to Gregor Robertson and John Tory, the respective mayors of Vancouver and Toronto – two cities where taxes on foreign buyers are in place. Both mayors told her they would have liked to act more quickly in dealing with rapidly rising housing prices in their cities.
Currently, if Montreal wants to impose a levy on non-residents purchasing real estate, it would have to seek permission from the provincial government. Plante wants to obtain the authorization before the housing market becomes problematic.
“Maybe we won’t use it,” she said. “We want to protect social, economic and cultural diversity and that starts with housing.”
Earlier on the campaign trail, Plante promised to force property developers to set aside 40% of their projects for social and low-cost housing. Many real estate developers have called this an “impossible target” and say it could have a detrimental effect on the city’s economy.

After nearly four weeks of trying to grow grass seed and rejuvenate our backyard it has become quite clear that the weeds and the mud have teamed up against us. We set out to join forces with the weeds and dominate over the mud and rehabilitate our backyard, but instead, the weeds really just took matters into their own hands and abandoned us by taking over the entire yard.
It certainly isn’t for lack of trying that we are fighting with the backyard again. The damp mud has just created a perfect breeding ground for the weeds to grow and they seem heartier than the new grass seed, which just isn’t taking off.
Both Alex and I are extremely frustrated to be basically back to the drawing board again. If someone comes over and happens to have a cement truck full of extra cement I would happily allow them to dump it and spread it across our backyard right now.
In reality we are backtracking to instal a partial patio/walkway by way of pavers and small rocks so that we can minimize the area of our backyard that contains grass.We now fully understand why our neighbors loath grass, why one family literally blacktopped over their backyard, and why most people in our neighborhood have turned their entire yards into beautifully landscaped masterpieces to avoid grass. It is just that hard to maintain it in this dog loving, wet climate with clay soil.
patiently impatiently awaiting the call back from the landscaping company we liked the best to hear just how much this will set us back. Initially back in February we didn’t want to spend any more money on our backyard but we’ve reached the point where the weather has been so nice that we’ve been quite disappointed to not be able to go back there, plus we’re just so tired of dealing with it that we’re willing to compromise.

Activists plan rally outside Disney shareholder meeting in Denver on Wednesday, March 8; Will Iger side with hate, or with families?
DENVER â€“(ENEWSPF)â€”March 7, 2017.Â Â Community members and activists will protest outside the Walt Disney Company shareholders meeting in Denver on Wednesday, March 8, demanding that Disney CEO Bob Iger step down from Trumpâ€™s Business Advisory Council. Â The rally will take place at the Sculpture Park, Denver Performing Arts Complex, Champa Street and Speer Boulevard beginning at 9 a.m.
A coalition of organizations representing millions of people have come together to hold Disney accountable to families. They have collected petitions with a half-million signatures from throughout the country telling Iger that by teaming up with Trumpâ€™s collection of troubling characters, he is also aligning Disney with racism, anti-immigrant policies and endorsing the administrationâ€™s Muslim ban.
Disney has entertained generations of families. Now Iger is selling out those families, customers and workers in exchange for big corporate tax breaks. Disney is one of the corporations that would benefit most from Trumpâ€™s corporate tax cuts â€“ and families stand to lose the most.
In Denver, Disney shareholders have a chance to join more than a half-million people nationwide and tell Iger to be a prince and walk away from Donald Trump.

Soldier Songs and Voices seeks to help Upstate veterans cope with PTSD through music
This article has been edited to correct the email address for the organization.
It’s no secret that listening to music can offer emotional connections that go beyond simple appreciation for a well-written lyric or a mind-blowing guitar riff.
But the creative process of writing music can offer a whole other form of connection and healing.
That’s the premise behind Soldier Songs and Voices, an organization that provides musical instruments and songwriting lessons to veterans, in hopes that the creative process can help heal the psychic wounds of post-traumatic stress disorder.
Greenville is starting its own chapter of the national organization, kicking things off with a concert Aug. 17 at the Firmament, followed by monthly songwriting sessions and music lessons for vets.
The national organization was founded by Dustin Welch, son of songwriter Kevin Welch, and Greenville therapist and music lover Neil Sondov is starting the Upstate chapter with musician Charles Hedgepath.
“Through the work that I do as a counselor, I would see that while there are resources for our veterans, they need something more,” Sondov said. “They call music the universal language for a reason.”
According to statistics from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, about 20 veterans die by suicide each day.
'Please find a way to forgive me':Greenville veteran's suicide leaves family searching for answers
Hedgepath was struck by those stats, and said he would like to do his part to help reduce that number.
“There’s no reason for that to be in the equation, if we can find a way to help that,” Hedgepath said. “In situations like that, if you’re feeling down in the dumps, you don’t know necessarily where to turn. You might be turned off by traditional therapy and things like that, where this is very open and non-threatening. It does have the goal of helping the people, but it’s not being done in a way of any kind of judgment. These kinds of groups are going to work these things out themselves.”
A different musician will attend each meeting, acting as a facilitator to help the veterans find ways to express themselves musically.
The program will be free to veterans, with musicians volunteering their time, and Pecknel donating some of the instruments and musical equipment, Hedgepath said.
“It’s not therapy, but it is therapeutic,” Sondov said.
The sessions aren’t beneficial only to the veterans, Hedgepath said.
“The musicians who are involved get a lot out of it. It doesn’t matter what you’re doing, if you’re in a situation, and you’re explaining your craft to other people, it makes you more aware of what you’re doing. If you’re leading a songwriting exercise, that’s forcing you to write. I imagine that through this process, I’m going to become a better songwriter, and I’m going to learn from these people in this experience too,” Hedgepath said.
TELLING IMPORTANT STORIES
Through local journalism we help keep you informed about sometimes difficult issues in the community. Become a subscriber and access all our stories. Here's our special offer.
SSV was founded in 2011, and there are now nine chapters, with five more in the works. Sondov had heard about the program for several years before he began looking at starting a local chapter.
His mother’s death last year nudged Sondov to start the process.
“She wasn’t a veteran, but she was born on Nov. 11th, which is Veterans Day, and so I wanted to do something that was sort of a tribute and an ongoing memorial for her,” he said.
Sondov felt he needed to partner with a Greenville musician to help bring the plan to life.
He and Hedgepath had crossed paths over the years, so Sondov approached him in hopes that he would either want to participate or could offer suggestions of other musicians who might be willing to get involved.
Hedgepath immediately said yes, and “it’s been since Charles came on board that this has really taken off,” Sondov said.
The Upstate chapter’s first meeting and songwriting session isn’t until October, but the group is putting on a show in August to raise money and awareness.
The concert, which takes place Aug. 17 at The Firmament, will feature music by Cravin’ Melon, the Jeff Sipe Trio, Bad Popes, and Morgan Riley.
Research has shown the benefits of music, songwriting in particular, in healing a brain that is battling PTSD, Sondov said.
“The amazing thing about the process is that there really isn’t a process. It’s people of like minds with shared experiences sitting around telling their stories, stories they need to tell, stories we need to hear, and doing it through songwriting, which is an amazing medium,” he said. “Again, the universal language. And neuroscience has advanced, and shows when they map the brain, not only the effects of music but the effects of songwriting and how it can help re-educate and recalibrate and actually almost rewire the brain.”
By the end of the first year, Sondov hopes to put on a showcase with the veterans performing songs they’ve written.
And eventually, Hedgepath said, they may be able to release an album of the participants’ music.
In May, Sondov attended a couple of chapter meetings of SSV groups in Texas, and he was touched to see the creative energy swirling among the participants. He’s hoping for a similar impact when the Upstate chapter gears up.
“It was really amazing to watch these men and women tell their stories and convert them into these songs, and to see the comradeship and the companionship, and to see that they were all doing all right,” Sondov said. “They all had their stuff, and some of it was pretty intense, but (during that time), they were together, they were taking what could be a horrible negative for them and turning them into these works of art, these things of beauty.”

Stoke City fury at Arsene Wenger's double apology snub
Wenger infuriated Stoke by claiming Shawcross had deliberately kicked Tottenham goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes in a match on August 21.
The centre back has watched the match video and claims 'at no point did I go anywhere near Gomes'.
Sickener: Shawcross can’t look and walks away after breaking Ramsey’s leg last season
Stoke are also fuming over the Frenchman's accusation that their style of play is more in line with rugby.
They are mystified they have not received a reply from the Emirates and have called on the FA and the Premier League to take action against Wenger.
Stoke chief executive Tony Scholes said: 'Many of you will have seen the comments made by Arsene Wenger recently in which he was critical of the club generally, and Ryan Shawcross in particular.
'We have written to him objecting to these comments and have asked for an apology.
'Much as we respect Arsene Wenger, we cannot allow him to continue criticising us in this way. Therefore, in the absence of any apology, we will continue with our complaint, even though it has been reported the FA will take no action.
Angry: Allardyce hit out at Wenger earlier this week
'We cannot accept that. It is not right that anyone in the game can criticise one of our players without reproach.'
Arsenal maintain that the letters were in fact addressed to chief executive Ivan Gazidis, who has responded. Gazidis, it is said, outlined Wenger's right to discuss the protection of keepers along with his right to discuss specific examples.
Wenger, however, has seemingly had issues with Stoke, and Shawcross in particular, ever since the defender broke the leg of Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey at the Britannia Stadium last season.
The comments from chief executive Scholes were made in the programme for last Monday's Aston Villa game and would appear to be a deliberate attempt to ensure the issue remains in the public eye. Certainly the move cranks up the pressure on Wenger in a week that Allardyce and Coyle laid into the Frenchman.
Coyle claimed Wenger had been hypocritical in his reaction to a Paul Robinson tackle that injured Abou Diaby last Saturday, sending him a text congratulating Bolton on their performance before hammering them in public.
Blackburn boss Allardyce accused Wenger of using the media to try to influence referees ahead of Arsenal's trip to Ewood Park.
And on Friday Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp suggested Wenger might be overreacting. 'It's just as well he wasn't here in the 1960s, really,' he said.
You can't be serious: Spurs boss Redknapp reminded Wenger tackles aren't as bad as they were in the 1960s!
'If he'd have seen some of the tackling that went on in those days, we would have something to worry about. The tackling now is nothing to what it was.
'You always get one or two injuries but in the games we've played, we've had no problems.
'We've all had teams that can dish it out a bit. Arsenal, a few years ago, had Adams, Keown, Bould, Winterburn, Dixon, Vieira, Petit. That was a very strong, aggressive team. They had their share of cards, the same as everybody.'

3 quotes from Aung San Suu Kyi that will ruin you for the ordinary
I am scribbling these notes on a scrap of paper, seated in a dingy little Burmese café in Yangon, the capital city of Myanmar. My heart is full.
Though many hurdles remain, there is a new sense of hope that change could come to a nation that has struggled for decades to be free of the iron fist. If all goes well, this will be the first time since 1962 that a military regime does not control the Burmese government.
When breakthroughs like this come, all who hope for change in this world of violence are spurred on.
Last night my Burmese friend smiled when I asked him about Sunday’s election. “Our mother has come home,” he beamed.
For as long as I have pursued justice and the Kingdom of God, I have heard the name of “the Lady,” Aung San Suu Kyi. Like many of those who have most deeply impacted the world, she has suffered. A political prisoner, she was held under house arrest for 15 years. She was separated from her children and her husband who died of cancer in 1999. Now, finally Aung San Suu Kyi has led her party to victory.
Suu Kyi’s story spurs me to reflect on our response to the violence and terrorism facing the world today. And her words have challenged me over the years to pursue justice, grace and love in more profound and costly ways.
At this historic moment where Myanmar is on the cusp of seeing major change, it seems good to reflect on some of her words. So, here are 3 challenging thoughts from Aung San Suu Kyi that will spur you towards justice:
On Fear and what we allow it to stop us doing…
One of her most famous speeches was Freedom From Fear, which began:
Fear is a theme she was to return to often.
Though most of us do not live under the iron fist of a military regime, we still give fear an outsized role in our lives. We have no need to fear torture, death or imprisonment, yet we allow fear of suffering in other smaller ways to stop us from pursuing the Kingdom of God.
Knowing this, Aung San Suu Kyi says, “You should never let your fears prevent you from doing what you know is right.”
Perfect love casts out fear. Even those tiny acts of beauty, goodness and justice which others write off as insignificant, silly or futile, are blows against a massive brick wall of oppression. Aung San Suu Kyi reminds us that lighting even the tiniest flicker of candlelight in the darkness is worthwhile.
On Freedom and how we use it…
The fact is, we have the kind of freedom to fight for justice that Aung San Suu Kyi has rarely known. And so she challenges us,
The political prisoner, the trafficked girl, the maligned asylum seeker – none have the kind of freedom to make even a simple phone call, send an email, attend a rally or speak out and agitate that you and I have.
And what do we do with that freedom? Play Candy Crush. Read about Kim Kardashian’s butt. It sounds pathetic because it truly is pathetic. We allow those moments of freedom to flow through our fingers like grains of sand, never closing our fist on that sand and flinging it in the bully’s eyes.
Use your freedom to promote ours. This is the cry of the oppressed. This is the challenge found in Scripture, "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves." (Proverbs 31:8).
How will you respond?
On Hope and how far it gets us….
Someone else put it like this: “Faith, without works, is dead.” (James 2:17)
Too often mere words, tweets or Facebook posts – slacktivism - are the extent of our work for freedom. But words, or even sincere beliefs, are meaningless if not backed by action.
Hope without hard work, bears zero fruit. So, what is God stirring within you today? What situation of injustice lights the fire in your heart?
What is one concrete action you can take in the direction of justice and freedom?
I will close with more words from Aung San Suu Kyi. She is not a saint. She is merely a flawed human being who has been able to see meaning in her suffering. And perhaps that’s why she says...

Western Union Owner Takes New Bid
The bankrupt owner of Western Union Financial Services said Wednesday it will sell the money transfer company to a subsidiary of Forstmann Little & Co. for $650 million, setting aside a deal reached just last week to sell the company for $595 million.
Western Union's owner, New Valley Corp., said it would sell the company to Forstmann Little's Morse Acquisition Corp.
New Valley had agreed June 9 to sell the company to Hackensack, N.J.-based First Data Corp., an information processing firm.
"New Valley's Board invited and accepted the new offer based on its conviction that this is a superior transaction for all of New Valley's constituencies," said Robert Amman, president and chief executive.
"Among its many advantages, the price is significantly higher," he said of the deal with Morse Acquisition Corp., established by Forstmann Little to bid for Western Union.
First Data said it has not had the chance to evaluate the new bid for Western Union, and would not comment until it had.
Locally, Western Union has about 900 people at its customer service center and accounting offices in Bridgeton, near the intersection of interstates 70 and 270. …

Who invented donut holes?
Hanson GregoryOne of the most popular credits American seafarer Hanson Gregory with inventing the donut’s hole in 1847 while aboard a lime-trading ship. He was just 16 years old at the time. As the story goes, Gregory wasn’t happy with the doughy consistency of the fried cakes served on the ship.
Why are Doughnuts bad for you?
Doughnut and pastries. Doughnuts will cost you 250 to 550 calories, but the 15 to 30 grams of sugar in each is the real problem. With such a huge amount of sugar in a small package, your body pumps out loads of insulin to try to accommodate. A huge blood sugar spike leads to an even bigger sugar crash.

A recent Census Bureau report showed Iowa families are changing, with nearly three in four new households composed of unmarried couples. ISU Extension family specialist Cindy Fletcher says that reflects a national trend.Fletcher says family structure is more diverse, just as our culture is today, and our families reflect much broader social, cultural and economic trends. Fletcher also says you can’t pin the change in family makeup on any one factor like the economy or tax policy.She says we accept diverse lifestyles more today, and no longer is there an expectation that one form of family is the right one. While some of the new families in Iowa are single-parent and struggling households, Fletcher says many others are higher-income couples who remain unmarried for a variety of different reasons.

- Shares of Chinese short video app company Kuaishou started trading on Friday in Hong Kong, marking the start of the company's life as a publicly listed company.
- Kuaishou brought in revenue of 40.68 billion yuan in the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2020, a 49% year-on-year rise.
- The company makes money primarily through livestreaming and virtual gifts, as well as advertising and e-commerce.
GUANGZHOU, China — Shares of Chinese short video app company Kuaishou started trading on Friday in Hong Kong, marking the start of its life as a publicly listed company.
Shares of Kuaishou soared nearly 200% to open at 338 Hong Kong dollars. The company priced its shares at 115 Hong Kong dollars, which was at the top of its range. The initial public offering (IPO) raised 41.28 billion Hong Kong dollars ($5.32 billion).
It marks another win for the Hong Kong stock exchange which has managed to attract a number of high-profile Chinese tech listings.
But what is Kuaishou and how does it make money? CNBC runs through the company's business model.
The company was founded in 2011 and started out as a mobile app called GIF Kuaishou, which lets users create animated images called GIFs (graphics interchange format).
In 2013, the short video and social media platform was launched followed by live-streaming in 2016.
Kuaishou's apps now have 769 million monthly active users.
It is also starting to push into other areas such as e-commerce.
However, the company swung to a loss in that period, reporting an adjusted net loss of 7.24 billion yuan as marketing expenses ballooned.
Kuaishou said it had 262.4 million daily active users for its app in the first nine months of 2020, up from 165.2 million in the same period in 2019. Its monthly paying users grew to 59.9 million from 48.5 million in that period.
The company makes money off its users in a number of ways.
1. Live-streaming: The main revenue driver is its live streaming business. This involves users buying virtual items from Kuaishou to gift to their favourite streamers. Live streaming revenue brought in 25.31 billion yuan of revenue in the first nine months of 2020, accounting for around 62% of total sales.
2. Ads and online marketing: Kuaishou also makes money from online marketing services or advertising which brought in 13.34 billion yuan in the the nine months ended Sep. 30, a more than 200% year-on-year rise. This accounted for around 32% of total revenue.
3. E-commerce and games: The Chinese tech firm has also began venturing into e-commerce and mobile games. Users can purchase items from online streamers via the Kuaishou app. Kuaishou said that 204.06 billion yuan worth of transactions were facilitated via its app in the first nine months of 2020 — a rise of more than 1,100%. Not all of this will translate directly into revenue for Kuaishou.
Kuaishou's IPO comes at a time when Chinese authorities are stepping up scrutiny of the technology sector. China's State Administration for Market Regulation released draft anti-monopoly rules last year aimed at digital platforms.
In November, the Chinese government also introduced rules around live-streaming shopping which includes limits on user spending and restrictions on minors buying items.
"Given that the internet business is highly regulated in China, intensified government regulation of the short video, live streaming and e-commerce industries in China could also restrict our ability to maintain or increase our user base or the user traffic to our platform, which will materially and negatively impact our business operations and financial results," Kuaishou warned in its IPO prospectus.
The company is also a competitor to Douyin, the Chinese version of short video sharing app TikTok, run by internet giant ByteDance. Douyin has 600 million daily active users versus Kuaishou's 262.4 million users.
Tencent, a major investor in Kuaishou, has also launched its own short video feature within its WeChat messaging app. Competition is also ramping up.
"The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, and we face significant competition from internet companies that operate content-based social platforms, online marketing businesses and e-commerce platforms in China," Kuaishou said.
"If we fail to compete effectively, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected."

Who won the debate? Ted Cruz. The conservative firebrand – been waiting to use that phrase for like, forever – showed once again why messin’ with a pit bull isn’t a great idea. Marco Rubio and Chris Christie had some impressive moments as well. Biggest loser? CNBC. Also known as DNC shills in cheaper suits.
On the local front, I hate to drag out the old “See? I told you so” tap dance. But hey! In light of Wednesday’s story in The Daily World, Hospital District Will Go After Levy Dollars, some of us did try to tell you so. Especially liked this part:
The hospital district spans from Montesano west to the beaches, covering all of the property between. The levy would mean that an owner of a $100,000 home within the district — which covers all but the far eastern portion of Grays Harbor County — will pay $50 in property tax to the hospital in addition to what they already pay to other taxing entities. (Emphasis added.)
Some of us were beating this drum when the question was on the ballot last year. It went like this:
The question of the formation of a public hospital district in Grays Harbor is breathing hot and heavy down most everyone’s neck this election cycle. This measure has revved up the Chicken Little crowd like A.J. Foyt at the Indy 500. It’s Our Hospital signs have sprouted up like overnight mushrooms. Pro interviews have blanketed the air waves like a pea soup fog. Organized opposition is zero.
With ballots going out this week, here’s the short response on the question of a Grays Harbor Hospital District: No. Here’s the short, short version of why:
Follow the $
Speaking of following the moola, Sens. Hargrove and Hatfield’s roles in the whole public hospital thing have been curiously absent from much of this debate. This dynamic duo co-sponsored SB 5859, “providing enhanced payment to small rural hospitals that meet the criteria of a sole community hospital.” Bill digest:
Increases payments for recipients eligible for certain medical assistance programs when services are provided by a rural hospital certified by the centers for medicare and medicaid services as a sole community hospital.
Translation: Either Grays Harbor Community Hospital “goes public” to receive higher Medicaid reimbursement rates, or no moola.
The old carrot and stick routine?
According to a March 13, 2014 report by The Daily World, “language (was) added to the bill stating a hospital must be owned and operated by a state or political subdivision… in order to receive reimbursement,” and was included as a “last resort” to get the bill out of committee.
I’m not going to rehash hospital financials, assets and liabilities and all that cool stuff here. That’s already been done elsewhere. And elsewhere. I am going to ask why Grays Harbor taxpayers should be burdened with the debts accrued by this private company when a perfectly good legal remedy already exists for that kind of thing. It’s called filing for bankruptcy.
Contrary to the run for your lives, duck and cover, May day! May day! fear-mongering that’s been running rampant on this question, the hospital won’t close and Harborites won’t be forced to head to Olympia for medical care if this measure doesn’t pass. (I’m pretty sure the sky won’t fall, either.) Bankruptcy court can allow the hospital to reorganize and restructure its debt while it continues to function – without soaking taxpayers in the process.
Meanwhile, this deal offers a golden hat trick opportunity to present a coherent argument in opposition to the measure and speak up for tax payers, hold Sens. Hargrove (D-Hoquiam) and Hatfield’s (D-Raymond) feet to the fire, and extol the “virtues” of that DemoLib Top Ten fave, Obamacare.
But you already knew that.
Ballots are due back August 5.”

"If you are to become an artist working as a director there are three studies which should be part of every producing effort. Two of these are obvious: the script and the actors who will bring it to life. The third may not be so apparent: the theatrical space."
