Joe Biden completely butchered the announcement of a new cabinet member yesterday as he continues his role playing from the “Office of the President Elect.”
In his announcement of his choice for Health and Human Services Secretary, Biden completely mispronounced his nominee’s last name AND called the department by the wrong name.
The Daily Mail reports:
“For Secretary of Health and Education Services, I nominate Xavier Bacheria,’ Biden said, mispronouncing both his surname and getting the health department’s title incorrect.
The former vice president then seemed to stumble over his teleprompter.
‘You know, Xavier Becerra… excuse me,’ Biden said, before carrying on and later correctly pronouncing Becerra’s name as well as correctly referring to the HHS.
I have a very hard time believing 80+ million Americans entrusted the future of our nation to this man.

You can add this incident to the extensive list of Joe Biden’s senior moments greatest hits. We expect this list to grow by the hour.
Can You Hack an Election in 7 Minutes?
Can an election be hacked in seven minutes?
Andrew Appel, a professor at Princeton University set out to do just that, hack into a voting machine. In order to do this he could have tried traditional ways of hacking or writing malware to sneak on to a machine at a polling place that are left unguarded for days, but he decided it was much easier to just buy one online.
For the cost of a whole $82, Appel became the proud owner of a behemoth machine called Sequoia AVC Advantage. This machine is one of the oldest and most vulnerable in the US and is unfortunately used in places like Louisiana, New Jersey, Virginia and Pennsylvania.
No sooner did a team of bewildered deliverymen roll the 250-pound device into a conference room near Appel’s cramped, third-floor office than the professor set to work. He summoned a graduate student named Alex Halderman, who could pick the machine’s lock in seven seconds.
Clutching a screwdriver, he deftly wedged out the four ROM chips—they weren’t soldered into the circuit board, as sense might dictate—making it simple to replace them with one of his own: A version of modified firmware that could throw off the machine’s results, subtly altering the tally of votes, never to betray a hint to the voter. The attack was concluded in minutes.
To mark the achievement, his student snapped a photo of Appel—oblong features, messy black locks and a salt-and-pepper beard—grinning for the camera, fists still on the circuit board, as if to look directly into the eyes of the American taxpayer: Don’t look at me—you’re the one who paid for this thing.
Appel’s mischief might be called an occupational asset: He is part of a diligent corps of so-called cyber-academics—professors who have spent the past decade serving their country by relentlessly hacking it.
Electronic voting machines—particularly a design called Direct Recording Electronic, or DRE’s—took off in 2002, in the wake of Bush v. Gore. For the ensuing 15 years, Appel and his colleagues have deployed every manner of stunt to convince the public that the system is pervasively unsecure and vulnerable.
Beginning in the late ’90s, Appel and his colleague, Ed Felten, a pioneer in computer engineering now serving in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, marsha led their Princeton students together at the Center for Information Technology Policy (where Felten is still director).
There, they relentlessly hacked one voting machine after another, transforming the center into a kind of Hall of Fame for tech mediocrity: reprogramming one popular machine to play Pac-Man; infecting popular models with self-duplicating malware; discovering keys to voting machine locks that could be ordered on eBay.
Eventually, the work of the professors and Ph.D. students grew into a singular conviction: It was only a matter of time, they feared, before a national election—an irresistible target—would invite an attempt at a coordinated cyberattack.
There is no singular national body that regulates the security or even execution of what happens on Election Day, and there never has been. It’s a process regulated state by state.
The Princeton group has a simple message: That the machines that Americans use at the polls are less secure than the iPhones they use to navigate their way there. They’ve seen the skeletons of code inside electronic voting’s digital closet, and they’ve mastered the equipment’s vulnerabilities perhaps better than anyone (a contention the voting machine companies contest, of course).
They insist the elections could be vulnerable at myriad strike points, among them the software that aggregates the precinct vote totals, and the voter registration rolls that are increasingly digitized. But the threat, the cyber experts say, starts with the machines that tally the votes and crucially keep a record of them—or, in some cases, don’t.
Cleary hacking into voting machines is an easy task, which is a major concern for our democracy. If powerful people with money and resources want to stay in control, we now know they can make that happen very easily.
A Witness Has Alleged that Voting Machine USB Drives Had Totals Altered Overnight in Nevada
At an evidentiary hearing on Dec. 3., the Trump campaign brought forth a witness that alleges the memory disks used to store vote totals from the election machines used during the early vote period had the vote tallies mysteriously changed overnight.
The witness said the vote tallies were collected each voting day and stored on USB drives overnight.
“What they would do is they would log these disks in and out. Good practice. And the disks had a serial number on them. And numerous times that disk would be logged out with one vote total on it and logged back in the next morning during the early vote period with a different number on it. Sometimes more, sometimes less,” Binnall said.
“What that means is that literally in the dead of night, votes were appearing, and books are disappearing on these machines.”
Binnall said that the USB drives were not encrypted and the voting machineswere not password protected. “And they were hooked up with laptops, then where the laptops themselves could have been compromised,” he added.
The allegation about the vote total alterations was one of several Binnall presented during an evidentiary hearing, the first of its kind for the Trump legal team’s six-state post-election effort.
LIVE: Trump legal team presents voter fraud evidence to Nevada judge (Dec. 3) | NTD https://t.co/I6Py1F0iX0
— NTD News (@news_ntd) December 3, 2020
At the core of the election challenge in Nevada are several batches of ballots that the Trump campaign alleges were either cast, processed, or counted illegally, including roughly 40,000 voters who allegedly voted twice. The campaign is also arguing that the signatures on more than 130,000 ballots were verified solely by a machine in contravention of Nevada’s election law.
At this point it seems that no amount of evidence will convince a Democrat or main stream media that there was voter fraud.

The Resource Articles and letters by Lord Northcliffe, 1914-1918
- Articles and letters by Lord Northcliffe, 1914-1918
- Inclusive dates
- In an article, 1914 November 13, probably sent to Will Orton Tewson, Northcliffe predicts that the course of the war will last much longer than the "experts" conclude. Although the Germans have retreated, seige warfare could go on indefinitely and the Germans can last much longer commercially. England's situation is comparable to that of the North in the American Civil War with lack of preparation and subsequent raising of a huge army. Ends with praise for Admiral ["Jackie"] Fisher and thanks for generosity of the Americans
- In an article for the "New York American" symposium, 1915 January, Northcliffe evaluates the progress of World War I, based on observations in Flanders the previous week. It is his "humble opinion that the German Army has about as much chance of getting to Calais as it has of getting to Chicago." He finds that "the war is only beginning" and that the "German soldiers who began by speaking of [our boys] as 'a contemptible little army' are finding that the quicker witted Anglo-Saxon, with his initiative and with his good physical training gained on the football field is more than a match individually for the heavy, imitative Teuton." He closes by "wondering what will happen in Germany when the Government there permits the truth to leak out." With this article is a covering letter, 1915 January 28, from H.G. Price of the "Daily Mail" to Will Orton Tewson
- In a letter to Tewson, 1919 May 24, Northcliffe writes briefly that every "means of linking the British Commonwealth and the great Republic deserves the suppoet of all people of vision."

We have worked together as a school community to embed a 'values' focus to the curriculum.
Dr Neil Hawkes, the founder of Values Based Education, delivered a whole day's INSET training to the whole staff in and inspired everyone. Since then, we have embraced VbE and it has had a profoundly positive impact on the whole school community.
This work was undertaken sometime ago and we have been building on this. We are now moving forward to link this to British Values and Rights Respecting Schools award in this academic year.
He then facilitated an evening's forum for parents and members of the wider school community, which also had amazingly positive feedback. It seems that everyone sees the value of Values! A set of values were created by everyone working together. The school has embarked upon a journey of deep exploration of these values, focussing on a specific one each month and building an 'ethical vocabulary' upon which to refer throughout each day - both at home and at school.
'At home both boys constantly remind each other of the values. For example, they might say, "You're not being kind, have you forgotten the kindness value?" to each other when arguing. They also talk about love, respect and compassion.'
Parent of Reception and Year 2 pupils
'My daughter insists on tidying her room more because it is showing respect and responsibility. Both our children treat insects with respect and compassion by not stepping on them or not hurting them. We think these values are inspiring and have really benefitted our children'.
Parents of Year 1 and Year 3 pupils
'I think the new values based initiative is a great asset to The Downley School. As a counsellor I often see vulnerable young people and when things go wrong in their lives, they have to make important decisions on whether to follow significant others, friends or trust in their own values. Values set at a young age can give a young person a foundation to build on - creating positive thoughts and behaviours'.

Rumours are circulating that Nikon is set to introduce an Android powered compact camera in its Coolpix range before the start of Photokina next month.
The camera, rumoured to be named the Nikon Coolpix S800c will be the first compact camera to feature an operating system from one of the mainstream brands.
At the very start of this year, Polaroid debuted what it dubbed a "smart camera", which was also powered by the Android operating system. However, the camera hasn't been distributed worldwide.
It seemed likely that one of the electronic giants already using Android technology elsewhere in its portfolio, such as Samsung, Sony or Panasonic would have been strong candidates for the first to bring an Android camera to the market, so it's a little surprising to see Nikon's name in the frame.
That said, Nikon has already introduced a Wi-Fi enabled DSLR (via adapter) this year which can be used with smartphones and tablets acting as a remote viewfinder.
There's not much known about the camera at the moment, however leaked pictures appear to show a 3x optical zoom lens housed in a typical Coolpix style body.
A shot of the back of the camera shows the camera screen resembling a phone screen, giving access to apps and even email. A shot of the top of the camera reveals GPS and Wi-Fi symbols.
Several compact cameras already on the market feature built-in Wi-Fi (for example, the Canon IXUS 510HS or the Samsung WB850F), so it potentially wouldn't be too much of a dramatic leap to also include an operating system.
It means that popular apps, such as Instagram, would be available to use on the camera, as well as image editing, sharing and other interesting photography apps.
A suggested announcement date of tomorrow (22nd August) is rumoured - so watch this space.

The photoacoustic frequency spectrum under steady-state conditions from Philodendron green leaves attached to the plant was measured in the 0.2-200 Hz frequency range. The PA amplitude spectrum showed a maximum at low frequency (around 1 Hz) which was attributed to an optimum frequency for oxygen evolution. The signal decreased at a lower frequency, where the oxygen or carbondioxide uptake starts to become important. Efficiency of the oxygen evolution as a function of excitation light intensity was determined for different levels of background light.

Increased strawberry farming on the plateau has dispelled previously held belief that it could not be grown in Nigeria.
Nigeria has huge potential for strawberry cultivation, thanks to favourable agro-ecological weather conditions.
Since the cultivation started few years ago, strawberry has now found love in the hearts of the people of Chaha community and it is now the most important produce that shapes the economic power of the farmers.
Chaha, which is located at the outskirt of Vom in Jos South LGA of Plateau State, is home to large numbers of farmers with only a few people in the community not cultivating the heart-shaped fruit.
This reporter went back to see if the farmers he met a few years ago are still farming the fruit and discovered that although the farmers have expanded their farms significantly, the challenges they face are still unresolved.
Elvis Choji, and his cousin, Isaac Choji, have remained in cultivation since our reporter met them in 2016 and have even expanded their farms.
Elvis’s father, Christopher Choji, a civil servant based in Abuja, has also joined in the cultivation and seems to find better market for his product elsewhere, Elvis said.
The cost of fertiliser and insecticides to combat termites, have made it difficult for many of the smallholder farmers in the community to grow.
Besides cost of fertiliser and insecticides, the cost of getting water to the farm as well as controlling rodents that destroy the plants are some other challenges the farmers face.
With regard to market for their product, many of the farmers still rely heavily on the local women who come to buy the product to hawk along the major Jos highways. Few, however, manage to get theirs to major super markets in Jos and Abuja.
Gyang Sunday, an NDII student of Plateau State Polytechnic, who started cultivating strawberry three years ago, told this reporter that he pays his school fees through what he realises from the farm.
His farm produces about four cartons every week. Each carton weighs about 5 to 6kg sand a kg sells for N1000 this add ups to approximately N20,000 per week.
The farmer, who is in his 20s, said strawberry farming helps him to deal with financial challenges that confront him daily in school, but lamented that the cost of inputs and chemicals to control insects and rodents remain his major challenge.
Like others, Polina Abbey makes money selling strawberry along the highway. She is one of the few women giving the farmers hope of remaining in business. They come to the farm every morning to buy from the farmers at N1000 per kg.
Whatever profit she makes, according to her, helps to keep their hopes alive for a better future.
Although, a farmer does not need to buy the seedlings every farming year, vines after production can be transferred as seedlings to another plot in the new farming season, which does not place any burden on the farmers each planting season.
The community has potentials for hundreds of hectares of strawberry farms, which any company or large commercial farmer could simply organize into smallholders to produce for them to export or sell locally. However, help has not come from anywhere yet – not even from the Plateau State government, which could easily attract investment into such venture that gives the state comparative advantage.

Ruth: God’s Redemptive Kindness
Ruth takes a risk and makes her interest in Boaz known. As we saw Ruth’s care for Naomi, Boaz shows a humble and loving response to Ruth. With the huge generosity of Boaz, we see the redemptive kindnesses of God. It would be difficult to miss the restoration/redemption of Naomi and Ruth from the loss, brokenness and “famine” through which they lived. Though caught in a harsh world, often times filled with pain and suffering, God is always at work.

The must read stories and talking points in health today
- Today’s must know: New trust ‘foundation group’ formed across counties
- Today’s talking point: Sir Mike Richards – More trusts to face prosecution for safety breaches
- Today’s departures: CCG leaders step down amid NHS England investigation
- Today’s risk: HR directors warn new union rules are ‘complete distraction’
Sir Mike’s ‘unfinished business’
More trusts may face prosecution under the CQC’s powers, Professor Sir Mike Richards confirmed in his exit interview with HSJ.
Sir Mike, who retires from his role as chief inspector of hospitals this week, said the recent successful prosecution of Southern Health should act as a “deterrent” for other trusts and the regulator was already considering starting legal proceeding against an unspecified number of trusts.
Although he was clear the Southern prosecution could not have proceeded more quickly due to the volume of evidence that needed to be collected, it is apparent that, as with Southern, the CQC does not intend to tolerate trusts that have ignored its warnings to the serious detriment of patient safety.
He also used the interview to signal that the NHS must try harder with cancer waiting times. He said the 62 day treatment target “ought” to be possible. The NHS has failed to meet the target for over three years. Revealing that he was taking up a trustee position at Cancer Research UK, he admitted that driving up cancer outcomes remained “unfinished business” for him.
Sir Mike also used the interview to warn about letting waiting times slip: “Why did they choose 18 weeks? Because it used to be 18 months, it is as simple as that.” Similarly, despite some CCGs drawing up plans to restrict access to elective treatment that they believe is clinically justified, he was firm that he “would never support restricting access to evidence based care”.
Funding was also on his radar. While recognising that austerity cannot “go on indefinitely”, he said the NHS must use any new money “wisely” by investing in system transformation that would take the pressure off patient flow between hospitals and social care.
Sir Mike also said that as NHS chief executives face more demands on their time, such as managing multiple hospitals or leading on new care models, the service needs to boost its leadership “capability and capacity”, despite the presence of “very capable” leaders around the country.
The leaders of South Warwickshire Foundation Trust and Wye Valley Trust will be among the busy ones, as they have agreed to become a “foundation group”.
HSJ first reported the intention of the trusts to form a hospital chain last November, but board papers reveal the chain, now renamed a foundation group, will be structured around a new joint committee with representatives from both trusts.
The committee will focus on transforming both trusts into ACOs, starting with closer integration with primary and community care providers.
Glen Burley, the chief exec of both trusts since November, said: “The foundation group model that we are proposing retains the identity of separate organisations and supports each to move to a model of accountable care with local partners.”


Litter is a public nuisance. It is hard to imagine there is anyone who appreciates the sight of litter in their neighbourhood or community. It’s ugly and it indicates an area has been overrun by slobs, criminals, and other lowlifes with no concern for anyone outside of themselves.
Littering is plainly one of the most annoying crimes, partly because it is the most unnecessary. Those who litter may claim the personal convenience is worth the risk of being caught, and that there’s already so much litter what is the harm in one more miniscule piece of litter fluttering about with all the other pieces of litter? All excuses aside: littering is just not cool.
How to Reduce Litter
So what can be done about it? How do we stop those who have no regard for the law or for the values of society? The answer is the appropriate enforcement of litter laws. Why do we need litter laws? Litter laws are in place to stop people from littering, but the real question is what kind of litter laws are most effective in dissuading potential litterers and punishing those who are unable to properly dispose of their waste.
In the opinion of many, steep monetary fines for those found guilty of littering is the best solution. The obvious justification for fining litterers is that it dissuades individuals from littering because they know if they get caught there will be financial consequences. Littering is such a seemingly inconsequential crime that some might be quick to not think twice, as is often the case in areas with a lot of litter.
Leveraging fines against those who litter is solid punishment because it demonstrates that while littering may not be among the most heinous of crimes, it is certainly not excusable and the monetary penalty will make that point clear.
Aside from dissuading potential litterers and punishing those who violate litter laws, another reason why fines against litterers make sense is that litter is an expensive problem to deal with. The clean-up of litter is not cheap, and by fining those responsible for littering some of the clean-up costs are recovered by the government. In order for litter laws to be most effective, heavy fines should definitely be given out and the public should be made aware of the serious legal and financial consequences of littering.
Do the Crime, Pay the Fine!
To do this most effectively it is important to differentiate between different types of littering. Intentional littering is worse than unintentional littering; to be fair fines should be higher for those who knowingly litter compared to somebody who fails to properly secure a load and inadvertently spills refuse. Companies who litter very likely have a greater environmental and aesthetic impact than an individual, accordingly it would make sense if fines against businesses violating litter laws were higher than those against individuals. Also, to be effective the fines for individuals who knowingly litter as well as commercial entities that knowingly litter must be well-known by the public, and they must be expensive- the impact on reducing litter of a 100 pound fine will certainly be less than the impact of a 250 pound fine. It is unfortunate that individuals may be fined such large amounts, but if they knowingly act in violation of the law there is no excuse no fine too expensive.
There’s no excuse for littering, period, and the policy of hitting convicted litterers with harsh fines is a great way to drive that point home while ensuring that potential litterers think twice.


While cruising, sailboats are highly affected by external conditions such as the sea, current, wind. The effective use of these vehicles are bound to information regarding surrounding environmental conditions. Recent sailing navigation systems are highly affected by the use of information collected from the surrounding through navigational technologies. On a boat, someone is responsible for continuously reading and interpreting the flowing data on fixed screens on the boat and deciding on critical strategies, while impeding conditions restricting movements and mental process. We believe that augmented reality (AR) technologies, which would project the data to surfaces on the boat instead of showing them on fixed displays, may provide significant improvements for this particular user experience conditioned under disabling environment. Here in this project, we explore the interface design and information visualization criteria for the use of two different AR technologies.

Mets Can Learn from the Jets
During the NFL offseason, the Jets made the somewhat surprising move of hiring Rex Ryan as their head coach. The hiring was met with mixed opinions from the pundits, and there were much eye rolling going on when Ryan addressed the media on several occasions with big talk about the Jets — and that he EXPECTED to win immediately:
Similarly, Wally Backman said in this interview that he believes a team’s goal should ALWAYS be to win, and has a major issue with managers who talk about “reaching .500”. He says the only number that should matter “is winning the fourth game of the World Series” :
I may be in the minority here, but I fully believe that there are some leaders — in every sport — who can have a significant, positive impact on a team’s success as a direct result of their attitude and the development of a “winning culture”. Bill Parcells is one of those guys, so is Bill Belichick, and so was Tom Landry and Vince Lombardi. In baseball, you can point to Bobby Cox, Tom Lasorda, Casey Stengel, Billy Martin, Earl Weaver, Whitey Herzog, Tony LaRussa. Yes, those managers often had talent, and they didn’t win a championship every single year, but they also fostered a winning culture and taught winning habits that can’t be measured on a stat sheet (though it can be seen through championship trophies and career won-lost records). There aren’t many “impact” leaders in MLB these days — but Wally might be one of those rare figures.
It can’t hurt to send him to Binghamton to find out, can it?

Myanmar court rejects appeal by jailed Reuters journalists
Published: 04:39 PM, 11 January 2019 Updated: 04:41 PM, 11 January 2019
Daily Bangladesh Desk
A court in Myanmar has rejected an appeal by two Reuters news agency reporters sentenced to seven years in jail for breaking the country's Official Secrets Act, in a case that rallied press freedom advocates.
Lawyers for Wa Lone, 32, and Kyaw Soe Oo, 28, had lodged the appeal in November against their conviction, citing evidence of a police set-up and lack of proof of a crime. The appeal argued that the original trial was conducted in an "unjust manner" and had called for the reporters' immediate release.
But High Court Judge Aung Naing on Friday said the lawyers failed to submit enough evidence to prove the pair's innocence. He said "it was not acceptable" to say that the defendants had acted according to journalistic ethics.
"It was a suitable punishment," the judge in Yangon said, referring to the seven-year prison term.
The defence has the option of making a further appeal to the country's Supreme Court, based in the capital, Naypyitaw.
"Today's ruling is yet another injustice among many inflicted upon Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo. They remain behind bars for one reason: those in power sought to silence the truth," Stephen J. Adler, Reuters Editor-in-Chief, said in a statement.
"Reporting is not a crime, and until Myanmar rights this terrible wrong, the press in Myanmar is not free, and Myanmar's commitment to rule of law and democracy remains in doubt."
Investigation into Rohingya killings
Before their arrest in December 2017, the two journalists had been investigating the killing of 10 Rohingya men and boys by security forces and local Buddhists in western Myanmar's Rakhine state during an army crackdown that forced more than 700,000 members of the long-persecuted, mostly-Muslim minority to flee to neighboring Bangladesh.
In September last year, a Yangon district court sentenced Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo to seven years in prison for illegal possession of official documents, sparking an international outcry from activists and diplomats in a case seen by many as a test of Myanmar's fledgling democracy.
The pair was among a group of journalists named by Time magazine as its "Person of the Year".
Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi said in September 2018 that the reporters' jailing had nothing to do with freedom of expression. In comments made the week after their conviction, she said they had been sentenced for handling official secrets and "were not jailed because they were journalists".
Bangkok-based independent Southeast Asian analyst Benjamin Zawacki told Al Jazeera he doubted Aung San Suu Kyi would offer the two journalists a pardon, and said the decision to reject the appeal was also a reflection of China's growing influence.
"(The decision) shows her contempt and the contempt in the country for international opinion," Zawacki said. "The continued rise of China has allowed a certain amount of political interference to be run on behalf of countries like Myanmar such that decisions like these can be defended internationally in a way that was not really possible 10 years ago, much less 20 or 30 years ago."
Myanmar's military admitted last January that its soldiers took part in the killings, but only after months of denials.
Human Rights watchdog Amnesty International says that a senior police officer "testified in court that the two journalists were set up by police" and called the rejected appeal an "appalling injustice."
"The decision to keep these two brave and innocent Reuters journalists behind bars plays in the hands of the Myanmar authorities' attempt to hide the truth about the atrocities committed in Rakhine," Amnesty's Director of Crisis Response Tirana Hassan said in a statement.
"One day in prison was already an injustice. This appalling farce must end now. Myanmar authorities must release the two journalists immediately and unconditionally. They must also ensure that the people of Myanmar have the right to freedom of expression, association and peaceful assembly, including by repealing or amending the oppressive laws that are used against journalists, activists and human rights defenders."
"We are very disappointed about today's judgment," said the journalists' defence lawyer Than Zaw Aung, adding that the decision would have a "negative impact" on the country and its media. He says his team will discuss the option of a Supreme Court appeal with the two reporters.

Adam Sandler‘s daughters are starring in a new movie about a bat mitzvah … and they’re taking home a paycheck big enough to make most bat mitzvah gifts seem, well, lesser.
Sadie and Sunny Sandler scored roles alongside their famous father in Netflix’s “You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah” … and their minor’s contracts lay out their compensation.
According to the contracts, filed with the court and obtained by TMZ, Adam’s teenage daughters are each earning $65,000 for the flick … and they’re gonna be paid in weekly installments during filming.
Adam’s got to be loving it … because it’s almost like an allowance for his kids.
The Netflix feature film is putting Fiona Rosenbloom’s beloved coming-of-age novel on the big screen … and Sunny is playing Stacy Friedman to Sadie’s Ronnie Friedman.
Sadie and Sunny’s contracts also call for them to get first-class accommodations if they have to film more than 50 miles from home, including swanky hotel rooms, business class plane tickets and car service, plus a $60 per diem and their own trailer on the movie lot.
Adam’s daughters could be in for a bigger payday down the line … there’s a follow-up book in the series, and if Netflix makes a sequel the girls are each set to earn $162,500.
It pays to have a big-time movie star for a father.


The task of the ball with helium in the car
Imagine that you are in a car where a balloon filled with helium is tied to the floor. The windows are closed. You push the gas pedal. What happens to the ball: will it move forward, backwards or will it remain in the same position?
What happens to the ball?
Move back against the movement;
Move forward in motion;
Will remain in place.
Intuition suggests that when accelerating, the balloon will be thrown back. However, we are wrong in this situation. Your task is to determine how the ball actually moves and explain it to the interviewer with the help of deductive argument.
A pretty nice solution is to suggest an analogy with the spirit level. Despite the fact that this thing is not always at hand when needed, there are still people who use it constantly. The spirit level has a narrow glass tube with coloured liquid and an air bubble inside. Each time a spirit level is placed on a perfectly horizontal surface, the bubble is in the middle of the tube. If the surface is not horizontal, the bubble moves toward the higher part of the tube. The analogy here is that a bubble is just a “hole” in a liquid. When the surface is not even, gravity pushes the fluid toward the lower edge. In turn, this moves the bubble to the opposite edge where there is no liquid.
Untie the balloon and let it hit the roof. Now it will become a kind of level. A ball is a “bubble” consisting of helium and a gas with a lower density in denser air. All this combination of gases is stored in a car. Gravity pushes heavier air downward, forcing a ball to press on the roof.
When the vehicle accelerates, air and your body are thrown backwards. It forces a more lightweight balloon moving forward. If you sharply press the brakes, the air will press on the windscreen, but the ball will be thrown back. You can face the same situation when cornering. In this case, the centrifugal force pushes the air in the direction opposite to the rotation axis, and the ball is pushed in its direction. Surely, the same thing happens when the balloon is tied to something, but now it has less freedom to move. Thus, the short solution to this challenge is the following: a helium balloon shifts toward the acceleration direction.
You do not believe? Then go to the supermarket right now, buy a helium balloon, and tie it with a rope to the gear shift lever or to the parking brake lever. Then go home and conduct a test. You will be shocked, but the ball really shifts in a different direction you could not even think about. When you accelerate, the ball rushes forward. Press the brakes coarsely and you will see that the balloon moves back. When twisting at high speed, your body is shifting strictly in one direction, but the balloon moves sharply in the other. You can watch many videos on YouTube about this strange fact.
Why does our intuition suggest us the correct solution about the spirit level, but the wrong one about a helium ball? Considering the spirit level, the inside heavy liquid is painted with fluorescent paint, while the bubble in it is almost colourless. We associate the colour with density, and transparency with emptiness. Accordingly, this instinct appears to be completely wrong in the case of a helium ball. The ball is painted in a pretty colour and looks like shouting: “Look at me!” We all forget that there is always a partial vacuum in the surrounding air. A helium ball shifts in the opposite direction to the bulk movement because it lacks weight. The real mass (air) remains invisible.
Interviewers giving this task do not expect to face a good knowledge of physics from your side. There is an alternative task version which is based on the principle of relativity. Let’s take a closer look at it.
This principle is related to the famous mental experiment of Albert Einstein in terms of the elevator. Imagine that you are in an elevator and going to the office. At that moment, someone decides it would be fun to teleport the elevator with you into intergalactic space. The elevator is an enclosed space, so there is enough air to stay alive for a while. The elevator does not have windows, so you cannot see where you are. This person tied the elevator to the cable and pulls it with constant acceleration, completely equal to the Earth’s gravity. Here is the question: can you define whether you are influenced by the actual Earth acceleration or by gravity?
Einstein suggested that no. If you would pull the keys out of your pocket and toss them, they would fall on the floor as is usually the case. Moreover, in case you would tie a helium ball to a rope, it would rush up as usual. Put it simply, you will not find any strange things in the elevator.
Einstein’s principle of equivalence states that there is no simple physical experiment that can show the difference between gravity and acceleration. This hypothesis is central in Einstein’s theory of gravity, known as the general theory of relativity. Physicists have been trying to find failures in the principle of equivalence for almost a century. Finally, they failed. Consequently, we can state without any doubts that Einstein’s idea is correct, at least for any experiments that you can conduct with a ball for only $2.
So, here is a physical experiment. Tie the rope to the lead weight on one side, and to your right-hand index finger on the other. Tie a helium balloon to the same finger. Pay attention to the angle between those two ropes.
You will face completely the same results in a parked car and in a crashing jet plane. The rope with the tied load will be directed straight down, the ball’s rope will be directed straight up. Consequently, the two ropes tied to your finger will form a straight line. You will face such a situation each time you are exposed to gravity.
Now, let’s take a look at what will happen when you start moving. With increasing speed, your body will be pushed into the seat. When the car is subjected only to gravity, two ropes form a straight line. However, when they are affected by centrifugal forces or another type of acceleration, an angle with your finger as its peak is formed. That’s all you need to prove that the general theory of relativity is wrong. In case this happens, you should forget about your desire to get a job at Google because your ambitions will increase sharply to receive the Nobel Prize.
However, the principle of equivalence has been rigorously and regularly tested and its correctness has always been demonstrated. For this reason, the mentioned-above option will not happen, and you can use the principle of equivalence as the solution for this challenge. Physics will manifest itself in exactly the same way in both an accelerating car and a gravity subject vehicle. In both cases, the ball, your finger and the lead load will form a straight line. All in all, we can conclude that the helium ball really moves in the opposite direction to the expected movement of an object with mass. In other words, it will shift forward, not backwards, to the left, not to the right, and up, not down.

“Sammi and Christian split amicably,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. “There was no drama. They planned on getting married in 2020 but then Covid hit and they had to reschedule their wedding date. Eventually they just called it off completely.”
The insider notes that Giancola is “doing well and is in a great place.”
“She surrounds herself with friends who support her and her family,” the source told Us. “She’s happy and not letting a bump in the road get in the way of her goals. She’s focusing on her business, her newly opened store, Sweetheart Coast, in Ocean City, NJ.”
The Jersey Shore alum, 34, first confirmed her newfound dating status via TikTok in July. Giancola answered the “most frequent questions” she gets, as part of the popular trend that is set to “The Magic Bomb” sound, and in response to an “are you single” question, she wrote “yes” on the screen. A second question asked if she was happy, and she typed, “YESSS!”
The revelation came after months of split speculation where she was spotted without her engagement ring, deleted her Instagram pics with the 32-year-old and unfollowed him on the social media platform.
The exes had previously put wedding planning on hold amid the coronavirus pandemic until September of that year, a source told Us in April 2020.
After dating for nearly two years, Biscardi popped the question to the Sweetheart Styles founder in March 2019.
“I’m completely overwhelmed with happiness,” the jewelry designer wrote via Instagram at the time alongside a snap of Biscardi on one knee. “Yesterday was the best day of my life! I get to marry my other half, best friend and soulmate. ❤ I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you @_biscardi I love you!! #Fiance #MrsBiscardi 💍💍💍 #Stillcryingtearsofhappiness.”

“Everyone was invited to come on the show but Sammi was the only one who didn’t want to. A big reason for that was because she didn’t want to be around [ex] Ronnie [Ortiz-Magro],” a source told Us at the time. “She has been enjoying her life off of TV and didn’t want to change that.”

Elvis is a happy, healthy, and friendly pug, French bulldog, and possibly Boston terrier, mix. This handsome boy weighs about 23 pounds. He’s said to be 11 years old, but has the energy of a dog half that age: playing ball, tug of war, and of course, going on walks are some of his favorite activities.
Elvis comes from a home with three other dogs, and is very social, so would be happiest in a home with other dogs who like to play and interact. He is house trained and crate trained very well. Since Elvis has a loud bark and needs plenty of space to play, roam, and explore, he would not be a good fit for a home with shared walls or an apartment. An environment with lots of energy and excitement would be great to keep Elvis at the top of his game!
Elvis is posted for Pacific Pug Rescue in Portland, OR. If you are interested in learning more about Elvis, please email email@example.com
This is not an Old Dog Haven dog. We urge prospective adopters to do their own evaluation.

Using railroad ties to build retaining walls forced me to consider how I could keep my drill bit sharp. I only wish I had found the Drill Doctor bit sharpener sooner.
In the video below I review the Drill Doctor 350X. For anyone who has to repeatedly purchase drill bits because of dull and hard to use ones, the Drill Doctor is a great time saver with a fast return on investment. So far, I can’t even think of a single negative for the Drill Doctor.
I don’t cover how to use the Drill Doctor in the video since the company already has that covered HERE.


Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, in an interview with The Spatator, spoke about three possible outcomes of the conflict in Ukraine.
According to Kissinger's first scenario, the Russian troops will remain in their positions. In this case, Russia will get:
Such an outcome would obviously mark a victory for the Russian side.
In the second scenario, Ukraine may try to kick Russia out of Crimea. The politician believes that a question of war with Russia itself may arise in this connection.
In the third scenario, Ukraine will be able to contain Russia, and the line of confrontation will be pushed back to the borders before the start of the special operation. For Moscow, such a scenario would mark a defeat. Kissinger noted that in this case:
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky intends to implement the third scenario, Kissinger believes. This would be a "significant achievement" for Western states, and NATO would be even stronger with the incorporation of Finland and Sweden. Ukraine would have "the largest ground forces in Europe," Kissinger said.
In May, Kissinger urged Ukraine to make territorial concessions to avoid further aggravation of the conflict. He is convinced that the West should stop trying to defeat Russia militarily. If the parties do not conduct negotiations, tensions will only continue growing. Kissinger advised Moscow and Kyiv should return to the previous state of affairs, otherwise a huge hotbed of instability would emerge in Europe. He also urged European countries to consider the bigger picture and remember that Russia has been an integral part of Europe for 400 years.
NATO Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg, also admitted a possibility of territorial concessions that Ukraine could make. Peace in the country is possible, he said, the only question is what it will cost to Kyiv.

Sold on LiveAuctioneers
Lot 1227 Details
A large specimen of bladed blue-gray barite (or baryte), a barium sulphate, from the Gregory, Bottley, and Lloyd collection. Cf. Bonewitz, Dr. Ronald Louis Smithsonian Rock and Gem, (2008), p.210. 632 grams, 12cm (tray: 10cm) (4 - 4 3/4"). From Baia Sprie, Romania. From a historic ‘Victorian Museum’ collection; from the stock of Gregory, Bottley & Lloyd (1981-2014); formerly with Gregory, Bottley & Co. (1932-1981) and previously with J. R. Gregory & Co. (1898-1932); originally in the collection of the famous James Reynolds Gregory (1858-1898). This item is part of a historic collection of fossils and minerals which has recently been reviewed by leading geological expert Dr. Ronald Bonewitz. James Reynolds Gregory (1832-1899) was one of the principal London mineral and fossil dealers during the second half of the 19th century. The company he founded was one of the longest surviving geological suppliers in the world, second only to Kranz of Germany. In 1858 James Gregory established his business selling polished stones, minerals and fossils from premises in King William Street. A few years later he moved to premises in Golden Square, Soho. He won prize medals at exhibitions in Paris (1867), Sydney (1879) and London (1862 and 1883). He also formed a superb collection of meteorites, which was later sold by his sons to the Natural History Museum, London. On the death of his father in 1899 Albert Gregory took over the business, dealing from premises in Kensington, then 30 Old Church Street in Chelsea. He eventually sold the company in 1932 to Percy Bottley, and after his death in 1982 the premises were sold. The company was then acquired by Brian Lloyd who had started the Natural History sales at Sotheby's before dealing from his own premises in Pall Mall. Gregory, Bottley & Lloyd, as it became known, traded from Ricket Street and later Seagrave Road in Fulham. In 2008 the business and all of the stock and Victorian cabinets were moved out of London to Walmer in Kent. On the eventual retirement of Brian and Mary Lloyd in 2014, with none of their family interested in taking over the business, the stock was sold and is now dispersed. [No Reserve]
Very fine condition, a large size for display.

Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (MDRX - Free Report) posted second-quarter 2018 adjusted earnings per share of 18 cents, in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Earnings also improved 20% on a year-over-year basis.
Revenues in the quarter came in at $535.8 million on a non-GAAP basis, which edged past the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $535 million and also surged 25.3% year over year. On a reported basis, revenues totaled $525.5 million in the quarter, reflecting an increase of 23.3% year over year.
Bookings in the reported quarter came in at $278 million, significantly down from the prior-year quarter’s $407 million. In fact, management expects to see some volatility in bookings in the quarters ahead.
In a year’s time, shares of Allscripts have rallied 4.5% compared with the industry’s 8.7%.
The stock carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
Software delivery, Support and Maintenance
Revenues at this segment grossed $336.4 million on a reported basis, up 22.3% from the year-ago quarter. Per management, recurring software revenues saw a year-over-year upside of 32% in the quarter. Furthermore, growth came on the back of consolidation of the EIS (Enterprise Information Solutions) business. However, non-recurring software revenues declined 13% year over year.
On a reported basis, revenues at the segment came in at $189.1 million, up 25.1% from the year-ago quarter. Per management, non-GAAP revenues were $194 million, up 28% year over year, owing to growth in revenue cycle services and other multiyear service offerings and the addition of EIS.
Moreover, non-recurring service revenues increased 26% year over year, primarily driven by the EIS acquisition.
In the quarter under review, adjusted gross profit totaled $251.7 million, up 22.6% from the year-ago quarter. Adjusted gross margin was 47%, down 100 basis points (bps).
Adjusted operating income in the quarter was $63.2 million, down 2% year over year. Adjusted operating margin was 11.8%, down 330 bps.

Stock Repurchase Update
In the second quarter of 2018, stock repurchases totaled $44 million. The company announced a new stock repurchase program under which it may buy back up to $250 million of its common stock through 2020.
Allscripts ended the second quarter on a tepid note. The company continues to gain from the core software, delivery, support and maintenance unit, which saw solid growth. The company’s growth in revenue cycle services and acquisition of McKesson’s EIS business have lent the company a competitive edge. The recently closed acquisition of HealthGrid is likely to expand the company’s FollowMyHealth patient engagement platform. Management is also optimistic about the gain from the sale of OneContent, which was closed earlier this year.
On the flip side, year-over-year decline in bookings raise concern. In fact, management expects to see some volatility in bookings in the quarters ahead. Additionally, Allscripts saw significant contraction in margins. The company is also exposed to integration risks. Intense competition in the niche space adds to the woes.
