One of the joys of watching period films is the beautiful costume design that usually comes with it. Movies like Pride and Prejudice, Little Women, Mary Queen of Scotts, and even Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them feature gorgeous costumes that emulate a particular point in time. One of the films currently being talked about online not only for its cast and fun story but also for its costumes is Netflix’s Enola Holmes starring Millie Bobby Brown, Henry Cavill, and Sam Claflin.
The flick is an action-packed mystery set roughly around the 1880s. It puts the spotlight on the relatively unknown sister of iconic fictional detective Sherlock Holmes as she searches for her mother. Though the historical accuracy of costumes in films do elevate the overall viewing experience to fully immerse you into the story, most viewers don’t bother so much to fact-check. Luckily, there’s a YouTuber who already did all the work.
Karolina Å»ebrowska is a Polish content creator who specializes in vintage and Victorian fashion. A quick scroll through her channel will show you how obsessed and well-versed Karolina is with 18th to 19th century style. She even makes her own clothes that are period accurate—whether that be an Edwardian OOTD or a 1940s golden gown. So it comes as no surprise that her subscribers asked her for a detailed breakdown of the costumes in Enola Holmes.
Below, we’ve categorized which frocks are historically accurate versus those that missed the mark for, well, give or take 20 to 30 years.
Enola Holmes' casual deep blue dress.
Karolina explains that this is reminiscent of teenage fashion during the early 1890s. She points out that the most common mistake in films is putting teenage girls in full adult dresses of that era when in reality the fashion for children and teens would be completely different during that time.
The corset Enola wears under her red dress is one of the best and most accurate Victorian-inspired clothing on the film.
Karolina was surprised the movie was able to find a corset that looked so period perfect. On the bust, you can see that it gives that Victorian hourglass shape so beautifully. “Just look at this beauty! The curves are amazing!” Karolina points out.
However, Karolina is torn regarding the red dress Enola puts on to be a lady. The YouTuber points out that the skirt is accurate to the styles seen in 1880s painting but the bodice emulates more of 1870s fashion.
She also thinks the neckline is too scandalous for a young girl during the day.
The black dress for the mourning scene is one of Karolina’s favorites because it evokes the style of the period really well.
She just wished that Enola wore a different hat, so a bit of her hair would peek through.
Not So Historically Accurate
The blouse worn by Enola’s mother played by Helena Bonham Carter is nowhere near Victorian fashion at all.
The shape is undistinguishable, and her gathered skirt is also just as confusing.
The headmistress’ coat and corset are more Edwardian (1901-1910) or even 18th century (1701-1800) than Victorian (1801s-1900).
Karolina points out that the silhouette favored by the 20th century was more focused on straight structured lines, while the inner corset of the character depicted the shape of the mid 1700s, which was a lot more severe versus the fluid hourglass shape of the Victorian era.
Enola's outfit when she wore Sherlock’s old clothes doesn’t make any sense, according to Karolina.
Since Enola is wearing Sherlock’s clothes as a young boy, the fashion should emulate the style of the 1850s and not the 1880s. Also, Karolina points out that they’re clothes that suit more of a “farmer’s son,” which doesn't add up because Holmes family is “kind of rich.”
The scene where Enola goes through some Victorian street shops, except the clothes being sold, is outdated.
The white crinolines hanging outside the shop or structured petticoats are 30 years out of style since the “bustle” (the Victorian silhouette where women wear a tiny petticoat on their bum to enhance their curves) was already in vogue.
Enola’s pink dress is more 1870s than 1880s.
Though Karolina points out that the shape of the bodice is pretty good, it’s the trimmings and the back of the skirt (which is a lot more flat than a bustle) makes it look a decade too late from when the film is supposedly set.
This casual cream embroidered dress is beautiful, but again, is a decade too early.
Karolina points out that though it is accurate for the late 1890s, all the extras are in 1880s clothing. “She’s looking like a snack, but a late 1900s snack,” Karolina quips.
Watch her detailed breakdown below:

God save the Briefs. Like all the Sex Pistols/Ramones worshippers before it, the band does nothing to reinvent old-school punk; unlike the other misfits, however, the Briefs do everything possible to take the piss out of punk with quick wit and swanky style. On the cheeky Seattle foursome's debut LP, Hit After Hit, the Briefs deliver the kicks in snap-crackle-pop fashion, charging through 13 songs in 25 minutes. Snotty little punk numbers like “Shut Up You're Stupid,” “C'Mon Squash Me Like a Bug,” and “Silver Bullet” (with its command to “Kill Bob Seger right now”) fly the middle finger even higher than the band members' shit-eating grins. Stylewise, the Briefs exude new-wave cool with mod suits, striped ties, and the kind of oversized sunglasses usually reserved for toddlers aping rock stars. And finally, while the Briefs may not sing in authentic limey accents, they do channel the Lydon spirit with snappy four-part sing-alongs.
It's only been a year and a half since the bandmates — guitarists Daniel J. Travanti and Steve E. Nix, bassist Lance Romance, and drummer Chris Brief — came together over their mutual love for a few simple chords and the desire to share vocals onstage. Since then, the band has released four 7-inch singles and last year's aptly titled full-length. But to get the full Briefs experience, you have to check out the live show, where the boys bounce around the stage like pingpong balls in a Lotto machine, tossing out burned-my-ass howls, bendy guitar licks, and bratty lyrical metaphors. In the end, the Briefs may be more bottle rocket than rocket science, but they sure uncork one hell of a bang.

I am using the web request action (for the first time I might add) and in the json I pass in the initiator of the workflow as follows:
However, when I am the initiator that comes out as
the \f is replaced by a symbol.
How do I stop that? I am hoping it's super simple and I am being really silly.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I'm guessing that \f has been interpreted as an escaped character by the receiving web service and it needs two backslashes to make it valid in json
You could use the regular expression replace on the initiator variable & replace the single '\' with a '\\' e.g. (\) as the expression & \\ as the replacement


It's so difficult following Cardiff City at the moment.
You never find yourself talking the club up. You want to be sitting here saying, wow, weren't they good last night? How good was the pressing, how good was the football?
There's Rickie, he gets two goals on Saturday. You hope he can go on a bit of a run, build that confidence around him, build some momentum going forward.
Bang. Back down to earth on Tuesday, he's injured. That's the only glimmer we've had in the last few weeks really, other than the form of young Kadeem Harris, and he's on the bench.
I felt the warning signs for the Derby game were there against Rotherham.
That result was more down to Rotherham scoring and then retreating, rather than Cardiff's great play. Rotherham gave up the all important momentum they had and yes, it was a big plus that Cardiff took advantage. I did feel, though, that if you were analysing the game from a Rotherham perspective, you'd be saying that they gave their opponents the chance to take the three points.
It is difficult to put your finger on why Cardiff are struggling. It could be fitness, it could be tactics, but I think largely now it's down to confidence. Their confidence is ebbing away with every game, they might win the odd one but that's the worry, it becomes just the odd one.
You look at Cardiff and okay, they might not have a lot of pace, but they've got some good technical players, a lot of experience, which should mean they are very difficult to beat at the very least.
You can get a skewered look of things from the outside so I can't say for sure, but you have Sean Morrison, Lee Peltier, Aron Gunnarsson after the Euros, I'd also look at Peter Whittingham and Matt Connolly. Bruno Manga should be able to lead by example on the pitch. There are six players who should be and can be leading, and I hope they are.
First and foremost, though, they don't seem to believe in themselves, and I think that may be because they don't believe in the way they are playing.
With Russell Slade last season you knew what was happening, even if it wasn't very exciting. A lot of fans wanted him out and I didn't say one way or the other on that but I look at it now and ask, is the manager giving the players the confidence they need?
At the start of the season I'd say they had it but when you change system, it tells the team that you don't believe they can play that way. If you've got a lack of pace in a counter system, the two aren't going to go. Now that you're not playing well in a 4-3-3 or a 3-5-2, that's when players will start clamouring, let's go back to 4-4-2, where everyone knows what they're doing.
The key is getting into players' heads. Derby are the perfect example of that, a club who have a brilliant squad of technical players, but can't quite get over the line and have struggled this season.
You look at Fergie, the greatest manager of the lot. He'd be the first to say he's not the best coach, but how many players has he taken, got into their heads, and made them start believing? “We'll score in extra-time”, he'd say, and people started to believe it. Forget looking at what other teams are doing, look at your players and get into their heads. You've got make them believe in what you're doing and that they're the best players to carry out the instructions.
For Wales when I played, you had Bellers, Sparky, John Hartson, Speedo, Neville Southall. We were never intimidated wherever we went, even places like Turkey. Cardiff need that at the moment.
In my view, Paul Trollope wasn't one of those players when I played with him and I'm not sure he's strong enough to get into the player's minds. I'd love for him to prove me wrong and rub my face in it.
Ultimately, though, it's a collective problem, and I fear he will be the fall guy. Would that be fair? No. But the managerial merry-go round has started even earlier this season with the sacking just down the road at Newport of Warren Feeney.
Things already looking up for Le Fondre elsewhere
I saw Adam Le Fondre scored for Wigan and then I saw his tweet. You can hear the happiness coming across in what he said, that he's actually enjoying himself. And that's even though he's at a lesser club than Cardiff, even if they were in the Premier League for five or six seasons. It's much a smaller fan base, here you're in the capital city of a country and you've got a wonderful stadium, for which I always say well done to the owner.
But you haven't got a training ground of your own or too many people in the background who really know the game, so what happens?
We're not the only club in the league like that, of course we're not. But you look at these owners that have come in and you just think, what's happening?
Cardiff are a wounded animal and Burton will be licking their lips
Burton have started really well and will be salivating at the knowledge that Cardiff are coming. They'll have identified games that they felt they had to win at home and Cardiff wouldn't have been one of them. Now they will be. It's like a wounded animal, when you're down people will want to take advantage.
They'll want to stop Cardiff having a sniff, keep a clean sheet, play their stuff as the game goes on. They've got Lloyd Dyer who has real pace and was a canny signing, while Chris O'Grady will hold it up well and bring others into play. They'll feel they have nothing to lose.

Our skin forms the outermost layer of our body – apart from being the biggest organ in our body, it is also the most versatile organ we have. If it weren't for our skin, our entire body in all the organs on it would be exposed to all kinds of environmental factors. Our skin is a natural protective layer on the rest of the body, which acts as a barrier to protect the rest of the organs present under it. It is exposed to all types of environmental factors and hence also has to suffer the most in the face of adversities.
Therefore, it is imperative to be caring and protective of our skin as well. The barrier that protects the rest of our body also needs care and protection for it to be able to fulfill its function properly. However, humans being humans, we hardly show gratitude and love toward our skin – and hence soon enough, our skin starts showing signs of betrayal. Okay, maybe we're being too dramatic!
But the point here is that when we don’t take enough care of our skin, our skin starts suffering, and soon enough, those consequences become visible on our skin. People who take their skin for granted start developing painful and potentially dangerous skin conditions – that can also lead to skin cancer. One such widespread and hazardous condition is Actinic keratosis.
If you are hearing this complicated name for the first time, then you need to continue reading this article. Today we are discussing the symptoms, prevention, and treatment of actinic keratosis – a common and sometimes dangerous skin disorder.
All You Need to Know About Actinic Keratosis
Actinic keratosis – also commonly known as solar keratosis, is a skin disorder that causes the development of rough, scaly patches on the skin, usually due to years of exposure to the sun. It is a type of pre-cancer condition which means if it doesn't get treated soon enough, it can turn into benign cancer – squamous cell carcinoma. However, the good news is Actinic Keratosis can be easily treated. It is the most common type of pre-cancer, especially in the US; over 58 million Americans have been reported to have at least 1 to 2 spots of AK.
Actinic Keratosis has very distinctive symptoms that appear on the surface of the skin – making it easier for doctors to diagnose the condition. Some of the common signs and symptoms of cancer are:
- One of the first signs of AK is raised, rough bumps appearing on the skin. These bumps can vary in colors, such as grey, red, or pink do have a yellow-brown crust on top. Some bumps are also the same color as your skin.
- Scaly patches on the skin that seem dry and rough. These patches are less than 1 inch in size (usually as small as 2.5 cm in diameter). Because they are rough and dry, these patches are sometimes itchy.
- Raised patches on the skin – apart from rough bumps, some patches also feel raised or bump-like on the skin's surface.
- Patches of varying colors – most patches look appear pink or brown
- Itching and burning on the skin which often also leads ot crusting
- In some extreme cases, skin also develops a wartlike surface which means it develops unsmooth projections that resemble warts.
Like most skin-related disorders and skin cancer, actinic keratosis also develops due to intense and long exposure to UV rays – these rays can be from the sun or from artificial tanning beds. However, some people are more prone to developing the condition than others. Here are some risk factors of the diseases that increase the chances of a person developing the problem:
- Age – mostly older than 40
- People with fairer skin or fewer melanin cells to protect their skin from sunburn
- Blonde or red hair with blue eyes
- People living in warmer and sunny areas such as Florida or California
- Week immune system
- People increased outdoor work
- Family history
By knowing about the causes, we are sure you must have understood that actinic keratosis is easily preventable. If you take the following preventative measures, you can actually protect your skin and prevent it from developing AK.
Limit your time in the sun; long exposure to the skin can cause actinic keratosis – especially the bright sun between 10 am to 2 pm is very dangerous. Avoid going outdoors during this time.
Avoid tanning beds because they are also a source of UV rays, which can lead to serious skin damage. Though artificial, UV rays from tanning beds are just as harmful as that from the sun, so it's best to stay away from them.
Use sunscreen at all – invest in a good sunscreen and use it all the time, even when you are at home. It can help protect your skin not only from direct sunlight but also from heat. No matter the weather – even if it's cloudy, don’t ditch the sunscreen.
Wear clothes that can cover your properly. Actinic keratosis usually starts appearing in areas that are most exposed to the sun, such as your arms or face, so it's best to wear clothes that can cover you up. For your face, you can wear a hat to avoid direct sunlight.
Like we said, thankfully, actinic keratoses are reversible and can be treated, given it is diagnosed at early stages. Some of the common treatment methods for the skin condition are:
Cryotherapy (freezing): removes AK by freezing them with liquid nitrogen as it allows blistering and peeling.
Laser therapy: an ablative laser device is sued to destroy AK patches on the skin.
Scarping (curettage): a device called curet is sued to scrape off damaged cells.
Actinic keratoses are one of the most painful and dangerous pre-cancer skin conditions that must be treated as soon as possible. This is why everyone needs to look out for symptoms and take care of their skin – the moment you spot something on your skin that resembles any of the symptoms, it's best to approach a good dermatologist so the disorder can be treated in the early stages. Otherwise, it can get much worse and lead to skin cancer.

UPenn law professor Tobias Wolff, who served as chair of the national LGBT policy committee for the Obama campaign, sent an email to associates last night announcing that gay attorney Matt Nosanchuk has been hired for the Justice Department as a liaison to the gay community.This is good news.
Nosanchuk Wrote Wolff: "I am pleased to pass along the news that Matt Nosanchuk has been hired as Senior Counselor to the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights in the Department of Justice. Matt served as one of the leaders of the LGBT policy group from the first days of the Obama campaign. He is a respected out gay attorney and public policy advocate whose previous positions include serving as counselor to Senator Bill Nelson of Florida and doing significant policy work on gun control. In addition to his other duties as Senior Counselor to the Assistant AG, Matt will be the front office point person on LGBT issues for the DOJ Civil Rights Division."
Early in office, Obama's administration decided not to have an LGBT liaison, a position past administration's used with varying success, but at least it existed. Obama passing on a liaison proved to be a mistake.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) angered the LGBT population by filing a brief back in June comparing marriage equality to incest. Many said this could have been avoided if a liaison had existed and had objected to the filing, which apparently hadn't even been reviewed by Obama or raised any red flags in the administration before the brief was filed.
Yesterday, the DOJ attempted to make slight amends by stating in its newest filing that it thought DOMA was discriminatory and called for its repeal. However, many said it wasn't enough since it was still defending the law.
Though Nosanchuk won't by an administration liaison, working for the DOJ will still hopefully prove beneficial. Several LGBT DOMA lawsuits are working their way through the federal court system, among others. The DOJ has shown that its in dire need of Nosanchuk - hopefully they can avoid anymore mistakes, mistakes that could give ammunition to LGBT opposition and can be costly to LGBT equality.

Bollywood Songs: Reflection of Wounded Nation in the Post-Independence
The present paper examines how the Bombay-based Hindi film cinema culturally obliges to respond to the national crisis in the post-independence era. The paper will deal with Bollywood lyrics in general and how they highlight the crisis of the nation one after the other, for instance, brutal partition, Indo-China War, Indo-Pak War, White-Revolution and Green-Revolution. Along with, the brief discussion will be on the lampooned religious identities and religious tensions shown in Bollywood songs in the aftermath of partition of India/Pakistan. Songs were often based on communal harmony and the paper will briefly examine how the Muslim characters were shown sane and sensible in the Bollywood films. The project analyzes Hindi film lyrics through the compilations of Harmandir Singh Hamraz’s Hindi Film Geet-Kosh and Mir, Ali Husain., and Raza Mir’s Anthems of Resistance: A Celebration of Progressive Urdu Poetry (as primary texts). The project undertakes the study of various other articles and books related to the area of research. The paper will conclude by discussing the emergence of White-Revolution and Green-Revolution during 1960s.

Death of broilers was not due to bird flu
Chennai, Mar 24 (UNI) The Directorate of Animal Husbandry today said the death of about 500 broiler chicken in Coimbatore was due to starvation and not because of bird flu or any other infectious disease.
Soon after the death of the birds was reported at Thanneerpandal village in Coimbatore district, the Regional Joint Director of Animal Husbandry, along with Animal intelligence unit and special teams, rushed to the spot and examined the dead birds and found that they had died of starvation.
''It was found that about 500 broilers which were seven weeks old, died because of starvation, and not due to bird flu or any other infectious diseases,'' Dr T N Palanivelu, Director Tamil Nadu Animal Husbandy and Veterinary sciences said in a press release here.
He said enquiries revealed that the birds were not provided with the usual feed for the last three weeks. During the past five days, no feed was provided.
''This resulted in pecking and cannibalistic behaviour among the birds and the dead birds had severe injuries. Even internal organs like intestines were hanging out because of pecking injuries,'' he said.
Post-mortem examination has been conducted and samples had been collected and sent for laboratory investigation. All the farms in the area was put under surveillance by the department, Dr Palanivelu added.
He said the department had arranged for supply of feed to the farm to prevent further deaths due to starvation.

Joffrey Bieber Tumblr Is Everything You Hope It Would Be
Some things were meant to be. The Joffrey Bieber Tumblr is the natural marriage of two people everyone (well, almost everyone) loves to hate: Justin Bieber and Joffrey Baratheon from 'Game of Thrones.'
They're both blonde, smug and a little too big for their britches (or they would be, if Justin Bieber didn't insist on wearing such ridiculous pants). The Tumblr describes itself as "where fiction's biggest brat and real life's biggest brat become one" and Photoshops both twerps into one person, with very satisfying results.

Poison ivy/oak dermatitis. Use of polyamine salts of a linoleic acid dimer for topical prophylaxis.
Orchard S; Fellman JH; Storrs FJ
Arch Dermatol 1986 Jul; 122(7):783-789
The ability of 156 different preparations of 22 different chemicals to prevent poison ivy dermatitis was investigated. Occupational exposure to the allergic component of poison ivy, urushiol (53237595) occurs in the logging, agriculture, forest fire fighting, construction and utility maintenance industries. Poison oak was listed by the state of California as the most frequent causal agent of occupational skin disorders, accounting for about 24 percent of all reported cases of occupational skin disease in the year 1979. Substances tested for their prophylactic abilities against poison ivy dermatitis included reducing agents (in an attempt to prevent oxidation of urushiol to the more reactive quinone form), simple nucleophiles and polyvinylpyrrolidone (as preferred substrates for reaction of urushiol derivatives), a dimer of linoleic-acid and several linoleic-acid dimer salts. Seventy-seven paid volunteers underwent closed patch testing to six different dilutions of a poison ivy extract to determine degree of sensitivity. Three or more weeks later, evaluation of protective substances (40 to 60 milligrams of protectants per 29.5 x 6.5 centimeter skin area) was initiated. Several polyamine salts of a linoleic-acid dimer were found to provide complete prophylaxis of the usual dermatitis in about 70 percent of tested subjects. Washing off both protectant and the antigen after 12 hours of exposure enhanced this prophylactic effect. The usefulness of these substances in preventing dermatitis occurring as a result of occupational exposure to poison ivy or poison oak was discussed.

You're Trying My Patience, Try Pink Carnations, Red Roses, and Yellow Daffodils
The reason I finally remembered the pin request is that I needed something to embellish these felted clogs, and thought felted flowers would be a good way to go. I considered needle felting something, but I have zero experience and I wasn't able to locate my needle felting supplies (I'm still looking for them). Also, since the clogs are likely to be washed at some point, I wanted to avoid things like beads and sequins (which would have looked awesome) that might fall off in the wash. I knit a large flower and a leaf for the pin, and then I knit a pair of smaller flowers for the clogs. Here's what they looked like unfelted:
And here they are felted:
Here are the finished clogs sitting on the back of the couch (with mild dachshund intervention):
The slipper suspense is mounting--I haven't given them away yet (yes, it's mid-January), so I'm not sure whether they will fit J____ or whether she'll like them as much as Frieda and Gretel do. Fingers crossed I can deliver them this weekend--can't wait too long with a growing kid, or the "it fits" window may pass right by!

With the recent NIH requirement to include female subjects in biomedical research, you may be wondering how this will complicate your experiments. Adding a female cohort already doubles the required number of experimental animals, but hormonal fluctuations due to the female reproductive cycle will add an additional variable. Should reproductive cycles be considered in behavioral research, and why?
The female reproductive cycle, called the estrous cycle in rodents, involves cyclical changes in hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and their metabolites. Estradiol, the main circulating estrogen, reaches a peak mid-cycle that triggers ovulation, after which progesterone is released in high levels from the ovary. If fertilization does not occur, hormone levels fall rapidly at the conclusion of the cycle
These changing levels of hormones have been demonstrated to influence a variety of animal behaviors, including emotion-related behaviors, social behaviors, drug taking, and cognition, among others. These effects are largely caused by the direct actions of reproductive hormones in the brain, which expresses steroid receptors throughout behaviorally relevant brain regions.
Steroid derivatives can also affect brain activity. For instance, the progesterone metabolite allopregnanalone acts as an agonist at GABAA receptors, the major inhibitory receptors in the brain. Allopregnanolone has anxiolytic activity and promotes stress resistance. Its blood and CSF levels are reduced in patients with depression and anxiety[3, 4].
With respect to effects on cognition, estradiol fluctuations across the estrous cycle are associated with changes in hippocampal spine density and volume[2, 6]. These changes have been shown to alter recognition memory and are associated with the use of different navigation strategies in the T maze.
Females also show cyclical changes in tests of anxiety and depression. The increase in female hormones during the estrous cycle increases the rodent stress response and anxiety behaviors. However, on estrus and proestrus (the ovulatory stage of the cycle), rodents display reduced anxiety[8, 9]. Depression-like behavior in the forced-swim test also shows estrous cycle-dependent changes.
These data clearly demonstrate the importance of considering this variable in your behavioral experiments. How can cycle effects be controlled?
There are several possibilities for either assessing or minimizing the impact of reproductive cycles on experimental outcomes. All of these methods require tracking the cycles. In rodents, estrous cycles are monitored using vaginal cytology, which involves taking vaginal swabs and using a microscope to analyze the vaginal epithelial cells, which show characteristic changes during each cycle stage.
To minimize the effects of hormones on behavior, females should be studied during the phase of the cycle in which hormonal changes are the least dynamic, which is diestrus in rodents. In behavioral tests where there isn’t a large overall sex difference, diestrus females behave most similarly to males. The difficulty of this method is that your experimental schedule will be determined by the animals’ cycles, which can vary in length and timing.
You can also choose to run your experiments as scheduled, assess the estrous cycle stage after testing each animal, and then run statistical tests to assess possible effects of cycle stage. However, without a large number of animals, you will have a limited statistical power to detect differences, since relatively few animals are likely to be in proestrus on any given day.
If you are interested in studying rather than eliminating a potential effect of cycles on behavior, you can track the animals’ cycles and then administer tests to a specific number of mice per cycle stage. However, this method will be the most time consuming, as it may take days to weeks to obtain the appropriate number of animals in proestrus.

Video game review number one hundred and nineteen in my 365 Games in 365 Days project is"Buko Sudoku".
This is the first of two in a short series I'd like to call "Games my Grandma might have played".
When I was a kid, I used to visit my grandma's house at least a couple of times a month. Of all my relatives, my grandma was the best at spoiling me. She'd cook steak or fried chicken for my grandpa and I without fail. She stocked up the cabinets with all the "sweet" cereals I wasn't supposed to have at my house, plus enough candy to make it feel like Halloween 365 days of the year. Her house had an Atari 2600 with a whole bunch of games (!!), plus cable TV...and if that ever got boring, my Grandpa was always willing to take me fishing. Grandma's house was cool.
Whenever I was over there, my grandma would usually be working on a puzzle book of some kind. Crosswords, word searches...all that shit they make people on the Real World/Road Rules challenges (Or Survivor) do these days. She would sit on the couch with a pencil and work on a book of those things until she finished it, then she'd start a new one. I'm not sure where she got all the books, but she'd do this all day, every day. I don't think Sudoku had become mainstream back in the 80's, but if it had...I think she'd probably be a master at it. I couldn't help thinking of that when I started playing this game.
Much like solitaire, Buko Sudoku is one of those games that is probably more fun to play manually than it is in the video game universe. I have never sat down with a book of Sudoku puzzles, but I think using good old fashioned pencil and paper would be a little easier than manually clicking through the numbers in this puzzle game.
Still, Sudoku is fun, so this game is kinda fun. The graphics aren't great (they look like Nintendo DS graphics), but the numbers are big enough that you can read them, from all the way across the room if needed. That's nice. I'm not sure what else I can say about the graphics, we're talking about 9 numbers on a square, so it's not exactly 3D here.
There are different difficulty levels, ranging from 6*6 squares (appropriately made of baby blocks), all the way up to 12*12 squares....which are pretty darn hard to solve. I played several of every type (enough to get a few achievements) and then I tried to check out multiplayer. Unfortunately...there was no one online.
Overall? I'll give this a 7/10...strictly for re-playability. I can see doing one of these puzzles whenever I'm bored and don't feel like playing a shooter or something.
Achievements: Here are the few I've unlocked so far:

Petting your dog is just one way to show it that you love it. The love and attention that a dog gets from its owner can be similar to the love and attention a child receives from their parents. Dogs can also help lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels in humans, so petting your dog might not only make them happy but also improve your health. In case you need an extra reason to spend time with your dog today… here are 7. You’re welcome!
Oxytocin is a hormone produced in the brain and released by the Pituitary Gland. This hormone has been found to have a positive effect on our mood and may even help with depression. One of its functions is to aid in bonding mothers and their newborn babies. It is released when mother and baby look into each other’s eyes.
Studies show there is a similar effect between humans and dogs, where the oxytocin levels in each are increased as they look into each other’s eyes. Oxytocin in the dog increases as it looks at the human, causing the human’s oxytocin to increase, which causes the dog’s oxytocin to increase… and this “positive loop” continues
Brian Hare, an expert in canine cognition at Duke University, tells Science Magazine, “It’s an incredible finding that suggests that dogs have hijacked the human bonding system”
One of the most popular reasons is that it increases prolactin, which is a hormone that helps reduce stress and heals wounds. It also lowers blood pressure and reduces anxiety.
Petting your dog can also help with insomnia, depression and pain management.
Most widely known for causing the production of milk in new mothers, prolactin has also been shown to regulate behavior, the immune system, metabolism, and reproductive systems
Multiple studies have shown an increase in prolactin in humans as a result of petting dogs
Functioning as a hormone and a neurotransmitter, dopamine contributes to positive feelings and how we experience pleasure
Studies show increased dopamine levels in humans and dogs during interaction. This experience is more typical when the interaction is between a human and dog that are familiar with one another
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that, among other things, regulates feelings of well-being and happiness. Low serotonin levels are believed to be one cause of depression, so it is important to support the production in our bodies
A University of Missouri study documented the change in serotonin levels in humans after petting dogs. The lead author of the study, Dr. Rebecca Johnson, says that “by showing how interacting with pets actually works, we can help animal-assisted therapy become a medically accepted intervention”
Cortisol is the body’s primary stress hormone and is often referred to as the body’s natural alarm system
A Washington State University study observed cortisol levels in students who were able to interact with dogs in a “Pet Your Stress Away” program. All students who interacted directly with these dogs had significant reduction in cortisol levels
Decreased Blood Pressure & Heart Rate
Many studies have linked owning a dog with healthier blood pressure levels and heart rates. Some research has shown that people who own dogs experience less change in blood pressure and heart rate during stressful situations
One study even showed that blood pressure levels and heart rates reduce specifically while the physical act of petting a dog is taking place
Boost Immune System
Multiple studies have shown how owning a dog can have positive effects on the immune systems of young children. Researchers at the University of Arizona’s Department of Psychiatry are now comparing the effects of owning a dog to a probiotic.

As Iranians head to the polls to elect a new president, observers predict the successor to two-term moderate President Hassan Rouhani, is most likely going to be a conservative, who will be fully committed to advancing the Supreme Leader’s domestic and foreign policy goals.
According to several independent political experts, Friday's election will have one winner – and that is the ailing Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, who needs a lifeline for Iran’s fading revolution and the country’s clerical regime. “The guardian council has already disqualified most candidates. The next Iranian president will be a regime loyalist with limited authority,” said Dr. Hooshang Amirahmadi, a Distinguished Professor and former director of the Rutgers’ Center for Middle Eastern Studies.
In a no-holds-barred interview over Zoom, Dr. Amirahmadi, who has been a presidential candidate himself, said the strict vetting of candidates by the ‘unelected’ Guardian Council, the most influential clerical body in the country, that operates under the close supervision of Khamenei, shows that the winner has already been 'ordained'. Ebrahim Raisi, Iran’s chief justice and a close ally of the country’s top cleric, Dr. Amirahmadi said will win the contest.
The guardian council has already disqualified most candidates. The next Iranian president will be a regime loyalist with limited authority
Dr. Hooshang Amirahmadi, Distinguished Professor and former director of the Rutgers’ Center for Middle Eastern Studies
Having been rejected by the Council, the New Jersey-based political expert said the watchdog routinely disqualifies moderate candidates. “Surprisingly, they even rejected former hardline president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He was fit to serve for eight years, but not anymore,” he quipped.
Ahmadinejad, who famously railed against former US president George W Bush at the United Nations, accusing his administration of promoting hegemony, is not the only one barred from contesting the presidential election. He joins more than 1,600 candidates, who have been excluded from the race, leaving only four men on the ballot for the top job in Tehran: the frontrunner and predicted winner, Ebrahim Raisi, Abdolnasser Hemmati, Mohsen Rezaei, and Amir Hossein Ghazizadeh Hashemi.
Friday's election, Dr. Amirahmadi said, is not about Iranians or the country’s laundry list of domestic issues. “It is about ensuring that the regime cleanses secular and moderate taints from Iran’s society – making it a devout Islamic nation as envisioned by the country's Supreme Leader.
“To revive Iran’s revolution, the Supreme Leader wants to establish a government that is full of conservative clerics. Only then can he create an Islamic government and be able to implement policies that would advance the objectives of the revolution,” explained Dr. Amirahmadi.
While most experts appear to be fixated on the idea of high voter turnout and its ability to change the outcome of the election, Dr. Amirahmadi predicted a low turnout -- and that he said would help the clerics. "It helps them more than it helps the moderates,” he added.
In Washington’s policy circles criticism aimed at former president Donald Trump has been increasing since he left office this year. Experts fault the 45th president for helping the conservatives in Iran through his maximum pressure policy. “Donald Trump may no longer be president, but he looms large over Iran’s presidential elections,” wrote Trita Parsi in a piece he recently coauthored with Rouzbeh Parsi.
The idea that US sanctions have brought it to the brink of collapse is just false. Iran has found ways to bypass the restrictions. It is certainly suffering, but it is not on its knees
Mark Fitzpatrick, Former director of the Non-Proliferation Programme at the International Institute for Strategic Studies
In his article for the Responsible Statecraft, a publication of the Quincy Institute, Parsi, who is also the Washington-based think tank’s Executive Vice President wrote that the regime has benefited from president Trump’s sanctions. “His maximum pressure has had a devastating effect on the economy, but not the priorities and policies of the Iranian state.” Parsi’s views were also supported by Dr. Amirahmadi, who said the sanctions were aimed at crippling the state and not the ideology behind it.
Former director of the Non-Proliferation Programme at the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), Mark Fitzpatrick, was quick to say that Tehran has been under immense pressure from the United States over the past four years and generally over the past 40 years, but it has survived. “The idea that US sanctions have brought it to the brink of collapse is just false. Iran has found ways to bypass the restrictions. It is certainly suffering, but it is not on its knees,” said Fitzpatrick from Washington over Skype.
The veteran US Foreign Service Officer said: “While many Iranians would want a different leadership, they are not seeking to overthrow the clerical leaders, who happen to be an important component of Iran’s complex political ecosystem."
Fitzpatrick, who has also served as the acting US Deputy Assistant Secretary for Non-Proliferation criticized the Trump administration for imposing the sanctions on Iran, which he said, brought no benefit to the United States. “They brought no benefit to Washington other than weakening a potential adversary. None of the policy objectives were met.”
To the contrary, the Washington-based expert said, Iran became more problematic – particularly its nuclear program expanded in ways that are concerning. “The sanctions were certainly counterproductive,” he added.
On Tehran’s foreign policy, Dr. Amirahmadi said: “Regardless of who wins the race, Iran’s foreign policy will remain unchanged. The Supreme Leader had the final say and will continue to call the shots.” "Expect no change in the manner in which Iran will conduct business with the rest of the world,” he added.
Anti-Americanism, in some form or shape, the Rutgers professor said will continue to define Tehran’s foreign policy. In Dr. Amirahmadi’s view, through its new conservative president, the regime will continue to advance Tehran’s objectives. "They will continue to lend support to militant groups wherever and whenever possible."
There is no reason for this election to make any difference to Iran’s foreign policy. The presidency in Iran does not shape strategic policy; that is mostly done by the Supreme Leader
Alex Vatanka, Middle East Institute's senior analyst on Iran
Alex Vatanka, who specializes in Middle Eastern regional security affairs with a particular focus on Iran had similar views about Iran’s foreign policy under its new president. “There is no reason for this election to make any difference to Iran’s foreign policy. The presidency in Iran does not shape strategic policy; that is mostly done by the Supreme Leader,” explained Vatanka, from the Middle East Institute, the oldest Washington-based institution dedicated to the study of the Middle East.
Nuclear deal through diplomacy
After four years of tough rhetoric from former US president Donald Trump, Iran’s regime is hoping to make the most of the Biden administration’s leniency. “The regime will sign the deal. There is no doubt about that,” said Dr. Amirahmadi from New Jersey where he is based.
Taking a potshot at the Biden administration, he said: “The president has no plan. He is simply trying to revive the deal his former boss signed before leaving office.” Obama, he said, wanted to cement his legacy and therefore he rushed to seal the agreement.
Other than preventing Tehran from producing nuclear weapons, the deal, he said, offered nothing. “If you view it from Washington’s lens, the nuclear deal that Obama signed was a complete waste of time,” the professor said.
Once Washington manages to bring Iran back to the agreement, the former presidential candidate said, very little will change on the domestic front for people in Iran. The sanctions and restrictions, he explained, only account for 20% of Tehran’s financial problems.
Referring to the situation in Iran, he said, the most pressing domestic issue for Iranians is the economy, which has been teetering on the edge of collapse since Washington imposed sanctions in 2018. “Lifting of sanctions – particularly on the oil and other sectors will be on the to-do-list for the incoming president when he walks into office,” said Dr. Amirahmadi.
“So, yes, the regime will sign the agreement, but it is an insult to see the manner in which the Biden administration is negotiating,” he added.
Supporting Dr. Amirahmadi’s views about the possibility of reviving the nuclear deal between Washington and Tehran, Middle East Institute's senior analyst on Iran, Alex Vatanka said: “Both sides clearly want a deal for various reasons. Iran needs the sanctions lifted; the US wants to contain Iran’s nuclear program and open up space to deal with other foreign policy issues.”
Vatanka said the incoming president will employ nuclear diplomacy to relieve the economic burdens that came with the sanctions.

The UK and agencies in the US, Australia, Canada and New Zealand have issued new advice to help organisations detect China state-sponsored activity being carried out against critical national infrastructure networks.
In the new joint advisory the National Cyber Security Centre – a part of GCHQ – alongside international partners highlight how recent activity has targeted networks across critical infrastructure sectors in the US and how the same techniques could be applied worldwide.
The actor has been observed taking advantage of built-in network administration tools on targets’ systems to evade detection after an initial compromise.
The advisory provides technical indicators of compromise and examples of techniques deployed by the actor to help network defenders identify the malicious activity.
Paul Chichester, NCSC Director of Operations, said: “It is vital that operators of critical national infrastructure take action to prevent attackers hiding on their systems, as described in this joint advisory with our international partners.
“We strongly encourage providers of UK essential services to follow our guidance to help detect this malicious activity and prevent persistent compromise.”
Sylvain Cortes, VP Strategy at Hackuity, commented: “Persistent threat actors such as ‘Volt Typhoon’, which have been acting against critical national infrastructure since 2021 according to Microsoft, thrive on the exploitation of zero-day vulnerabilities and the lack of knowledge around them.
“There are a variety of reasons for nation-state driven attacks such as ‘Volt Typhoon’, but mainly their attacks are designed to cause minimum noise and maximum disruption, until it’s too late and an attack is fully underway.
“To maximise preventative measures, organisations must develop a routine of vulnerability scanning to stay one step ahead of attackers. What’s more, running standard audits of your internal system to locate critical access points in a timely manner will increase your chances of spotting unusual activity among your users.”Click below to share this article


The Braves have been the class of the National League East and look built to contend for a while.
Just like they did in the 90s.
This young Atlanta core has the Braves positioned to be a threat for many years. On offense there’s a five-tool star in Ronald Acuña Jr., plus other big-time players in Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley, among others. The pitching staff is elite, headlined by perhaps the most dominant pitcher in baseball right now in Spencer Strider.
Meanwhile, Braves general manager Alex Anthopoulos has done a fantastic job of getting stars signed when they are young. That’s allowed them to establish a core that can succeed for years on team-friendly contracts, while still being able to sign guys like Matt Olson and Sean Murphy to long-term deals.
In some ways, it feels like the days of John Smoltz, Greg Maddux and Co. again. Smoltz detailed the similarities between the current Braves and the teams he was on during an appearance Tuesday on The Morning Shift on 92.9 The Game..
“I think the biggest thing is collectively they have a really, really good pitching staff, and that’s obviously what made us pretty special during the 90s," Smoltz said. "But their offense is way better than any offense we ever had. I think the depth of their offense and the flexibility that they have speaks to the obvious talent of Acuña at the top, Albies, and just the young core that they’ve put together. That’s going to keep them relatively in every game because of what they can do.
“You win with pitching and defense, typically that’s what wins championships, but it’s nice to have the complement of knowing you don’t have to be perfect. Every once in a while that offense might get shut down, but it doesn’t seem like a long-term kind of issue, it just seems like their offense is way better.”
Smoltz’s Braves ended up winning one World Series across five appearances during the 90s. The current group has one so far, and it’s not far-fetched to think more could be on the way.


The fashion industry’s finest started off the first Monday in May at the Metropolitan Museum of Art this morning. Ahead of tonight’s highly anticipated Met Gala, The Costume Institute opened its doors to the press for an early preview of its spring 2017 exhibition: “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between.”
Vogue‘s Anna Wintour sat front and center inside the museum’s European Sculpture Court as museum director Thomas P. Campbell, Caroline Kennedy and Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton spoke about the exhibition and Tokyo-based designer and Comme des Garçons founder Rei Kawakubo.
“Rei has changed the course of late 20th- and early 21st-century fashion,” said Bolton. “If she didn’t already exist, we’d have to invent her.”
The exhibition features approximately 140 examples of Kawakubo’s womenswear designs for Comme des Garçons, dating from the early 1980s to her most recent collection, while also examining nine expressions of “in-betweenness” in Kawakubo’s collections: Absence/Presence, Design/Not Design, Fashion/Antifashion, Model/Multiple, High/Low, Then/Now, Self/Other, Object/Subject and Clothes/Not Clothes.
As The Costume Institute’s first monographic show on a living designer since the Yves Saint Laurent exhibit in 1983, “Art of the In-Between” examines Kawakubo’s fascination with interstitiality, or the space between boundaries.
According to Bolton, the concept of in-betweenness is reflected in the design of the exhibit. For instance, the entire space is white, which focuses your attention on the fashion. Typically, the museum uses spotlights to highlight each piece of art, but instead visitors and artworks are here lit uniformly.
As Kawakubo is known not to explain her work, The Costume Institute made the conscious decision not to display any text descriptions throughout the exhibition. Visitors are provided with a guide booklet upon arrival, which explains that the exhibition “is intended to be a holistic, immersive experience, facilitating a personal engagement with the fashions on display.”
“She lets her clothes speak for herself,” added Bolton.

The Oculus Rift is a virtual-reality headset that makes for a crazy-immersive experience. (Example: you can feel what it’s like to get your head lopped off without actually getting it lopped off!) Turns out, it’s a pretty cool gadget for real-reality experiences, too.
The engineers at Intuitive Aerial, a company that makes aerial camera rigs, hooked the Rift up to a drone’s cameras, feeding a video stream through a Wi-Fi-connected laptop. That means the pilot can see what the drone sees, almost in real-time. (The latency’s slight: just 120 milliseconds between the drone’s cameras and the pilot.) But there’s at least one problem with the rig: since the drone needs a Wi-Fi connection, it doesn’t work past, at most, 100 meters. But still, the real world has pretty great resolution.

One of the most powerful things that I have learned in this journey that I have been on, is that I am in control of only one thing, my self.
This sounds kind of obvious and almost defeatist, but its not. In fact it is incredibly liberating.
People do what they do and some people can really get under our skins. Those who are closest to us can naturally have the biggest impact on us and this causes us to question whether or not they love us. If they don’t love us, why don’t they? What is wrong with us?
We can make ourselves absolutely miserable trying to please them, trying to win their love, because they matter to us. Or we can try to change them, to stop them from hurting us, because we love them so much and they make it hard for us to do so.
We can only control ourselves, and we shouldn’t expect them to change just to suit us, any more than we would be willing to change for them. All we can do is take control of and responsibility for how we react to them.
If someone criticises the way that we live our lives and needs to tell us that we ought to live our lives more like them we need to stop and think: if that’s how they live their life, how do they know what it is like to life like I do?
How would someone who has lived their life in a completely tidy and orderly fashion know what it is like to live in a slightly chaotic less regimented manner?
How would they know about the creative stimulation that can come from a little bit of mess? How would they know what it is to not be stressed all the time about how clean everything needs to be around them?
If they haven’t lived life the way that you live it, how could they possibly know that their way is the best way to live?
Quite simply, that can’t possibly know and therefore they cannot be in a position whereby they can judge you for the way that you live your life and unless you have lived your live like them, neither can you judge them.
In fact in most cases when someone feels compelled to make comment about us or our lives, it is them comparing themselves with us. They are actually questioning and evaluating their own life and values, not ours. They are wondering whether your way of life may be better, less stressful or more fun than theirs. But it is difficult for anyone to accept any criticism of the values by which they live, so they will instead look to criticise yours, to make them feel better about themselves.
All you can do is control the way you react to them and their expectations. In this case its best to understand that they are welcome to their opinions and they can express them as much as they like, but ultimately it means nothing.
What really matters, is what matters to you.
Thank them for caring enough to share their opinions with you and carry living your life the way that you want to live it.

- Office of Road Safety, Western Australian State Government
In light of the recent tragedy involving a driver who ran a red light and killed a 5 year old child, we are concerned about the lack of attention paid to red light offenders in terms of punishment and enforcement.
The problem here in the state of Western Australia, offenders receive only a traffic ticket for the amount of $150 and three demerit points for violation of a traffic control device. This means the fact that they caused an accident and injured another human being often does not come into play.
We believe the law for running a red light and causing an accident should be more then just a fine. That is why we propose, that in a case like this the person at fault should have their drivers license suspended for 3-6 months depending on their driving record.
We also propose that cameras should be put up at all intersections (big & small). So for those that thought they got away with it, really didn't.
We, the undersigned, ask the Members of Parliament of Western Australia to take a look at our traffic laws, in regards to red light running and related accidents and make the penalties stiffer for those who can't obey the rules of the road.
We need to stop the red light runners.
The Stop Red Light Runners petition to Office of Road Safety, Western Australian State Government was written by Shaun Meagher and is in the category Law & Order at GoPetition.

23 Apr Ask Jenny: What Does Insulin Have To Do With Fat Loss?
Regulating insulin and blood glucose is one of the key tools I use my Lean and Clean program, and by asking my clients to test their blood glucose every morning I can monitor their progress internally as well as externally. Your blood never lies!
When we eat carbohydrates our pancreas releases the hormone insulin, in response to the rise in our blood sugar (glucose) levels. Insulin helps us to shuttle the fuel (the glucose in the blood) into our muscle and fat cells – think of it as the key that unlocks the cell to let the glucose in. Within the program I call this insulin sensitivity, and my aim is to make you as insulin sensitive as possible so you efficiently use your food for fuel rather than storing it as fat.
A high carbohydrate diet combined with a lack of exercise means we become insulin resistant, rather than using our food as fuel we start to store it as fat. If we are eating too many carbohydrates and our cells have already taken in enough glucose the excess will be converted and stored as both subcutaneous fat (the fat underneath the skin) and visceral fat (the fat around the organs and belly).
If this continues for long periods of time then we develop insulin resistance, which is the precursor to Metabolic Syndrome and Type 2 Diabetes. In insulin resistance the cell either stops responding to the insulin, preventing the glucose from getting in to be used as fuel (and therefore being returned to the bloodstream to be stored as fat), or the pancreas stops secreting insulin as there is already so much in the bloodstream (in some cases both these effects occur).
My Lean and Clean Program lowers blood glucose and increases insulin sensitivity through my targeted tools of nutrition, fitness and wellbeing:
- My low carb, high fibre diet with quality proteins and some good fats which help to stabilize and lower insulin levels (whilst simultaneously managing our hunger hormones leptin and ghrelin).
- Strength training, HIIT and walking are used to increase insulin sensitivity and help us burn body fat.
- Stress management and quality sleep are prioritized as when our stress hormone cortisol is raised it in turn raises insulin. We are also more likely to store belly fat at times of stress.
Testing your blood glucose at home is a super simple finger prick test, and you can purchase a meter from CVS, Walgreens, or by using the link below. Take the test before you have breakfast or drink your coffee, and ideally I am looking for a fasting blood glucose level of between 80-90ml.
