Is it just us or is it getting crowded at the top of the leaderboard? Famous dances week was heavy on nostalgia as promised, but also delivered not one, not two, but three perfect scores.
While the pros and stars may have returned to their normal pairings, the hosting crew didn't quite get the memo. Olivia Newton-John joined the panel as the guest judge while Leah Remini filled in for Erin Andrews as guest host — to hilarious and welcome results.
Interview antics aside, three pairs earned perfect 40s for their interpretation of famous routines. First, singer Andy Grammer received straight 10s for his Singin' In the Rain throwback with Allison Holker. Not to be upstaged, Bindi Irwin came out and did Dirty Dancing proud by earning a 40 and nailing the iconic lift from the end of the movie. And finally, after a week near the bottom of the pack, Tamar Braxton pulled herself back to the top of the leaderboard with a fierce recreation of Janet Jackson's groundbreaking "Rhythm Nation" performance.
How did your favorite pair do? Keep reading to find out!
Hayes Grier and Emma Slater: 32
Tasked with bringing guest judge Olivia Newton-John's classic finale number from Grease to life in the ballroom, the pressure was on! Their jazz number captured the fun of the original, if not all of the simmering chemistry (due more to the pair's age difference than anything else). Newton-John kicked off the judge's comments by calling Grier a "baby John [Travolta]!" and said he "captured all the elements" of the original routine. Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba enjoyed the performance, but want him to work on his timing and "finesse."
Andy Grammer and Allison Holker: 40
Coming off a high scoring Argentine tango, Grammer brought an iconic Gene Kelly routine to life from Singin' In the Rain. The audience gave the performance a standing ovation and the accolades didn't' end there — the judges were thrilled with the number as well! Tonioli said Grammer "succeeded with honor" at filling Kelly's shoes. Inaba continued the sentiment adding, "you filled them with ease and grace." Newton-John, who has danced with Kelly before, said "I'd be happy to dance with you anytime."
Alexa PenaVega and Mark Ballas: 30
After earning the first perfect score of the season, Alexa went full Britney when recreating the pop diva's unforgettable VMA performance to "Slave 4 U" — snake and all. It's hard to say something negative when the subject of your comments is holding a snake, but the judges weren't put off. While they found the routine sexy, Inaba said it best when she said "you missed the essence of Britney in that routine." Julianne Hough added that her performance "went down a little bit" from last week. Tonoili on the other hand thought "it worked very well."
Bindi Irwin and Derek Hough: 40
Nobody puts Bindi in the corner! And coming just a week after original Frances Houser, Jennifer Grey, said that she barely practiced the infamous lift from Dirty Dancing, the pressure was definitely on. In their Rumba to the dancing flick's final song, Irwin and Hough delivered a performance that was true to the original. Hough beamed that the pair "had every little detail" and turned to the crowd and asked, "were we not all jus transported?" Tonioli called the performance "blindingly brilliant both in execution and interpretation" and commented on how they "captured all the nuances of the [original] dance."
Paula Deen and Louis Van Amstel: 24 Eliminated
Recreating Madonna's iconic "Vogue" performance for her jazz dance this week, Deen had the chance to step into character once again. While comparing the Southern chef to Madge may seem incongruous, Deen was obviously enjoying herself the entire time. The judges, on the other hand, wanted a little bit more. Tonioli said her routine was less Vogue and more National Enquirer: "the content was to be taken with a pinch of salt." Inaba said the "costumes overwhelmed you a little bit."
Carlos PenaVega and Witney Carson: 38
Women in the crowd and at home had to have been thrilled with this “Magic Mike” routine — even if the star himself wasn’t too into the concept of a stripping-inspired Rumba. The judges and everyone else in the ballroom were feeling the heat after that number. Tonioli started things off by saying, “I feel like I’ve experienced the seven deadly sins in one dance routine.” Hough called it “the sexiest rumba I’ve ever seen,” while the routine left Newton-John “speechless.”
Nick Carter and Sharna Burgess: 39
Performing the second John Travolta-inspired dance of the night, Carter gave the crowd Saturday Night Fever. His Samba kept the integrity of the ballroom dance intact while infusing it with some of the classic '70s Hustle moves. With the exception of Inaba — who thought there was some "inconsistency" in Carter's performance — the panel got carried away in disco magic! Hough said "that was a true reinvention of what the dance was" and Tonioli adored "the seamless way in which you constructed this Samba within the number" and called the routine "brilliant."
Alek Skarlatos and Lindsay Arnold: 30
Taking on the king, Skarlatos had big shoes (and hair!) to fill jiving to Elvis Presley's famous "Jailhouse Rock." To say the judges were underwhelmed might be going too far, but they certainly wanted to see more from Skarlatos's performance. Hough said, "if you're going to get out of the middle pack, you've got to commit even harder." Tonioli commended the amount of jive content in the routine, but added "you cannot hold back, you've got to want this." Inaba rounded out the feedback by calling him "contender adjacent."
Tamar Braxton and Val Chmerkovskiy: 40
Taking on Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation" after a stumble down the leaderboard, Braxton wanted to come out on top with her jazz dance. Even performing sick, the talk show host brought her game face and delivered a perfect routine. Tonioli said, "that is how you stage a comeback; you take a known and you hit back with a knockout." Hough added that "out of all the dances tonight, that was the hardest one to do perfectly and I think you might have nailed it."

Primal Raw Cat food – Fritz N Elis natural and organic pet food store
Raw Advantage, Inc. in Kettle Falls, Washington, offers certified organic pet food for dogs and cats that is as close to whole as it gets.
We hand prepare “species-appropriate” dog and cat food recipes using fresh, whole ingredients, sourced from ethical ranchers and farmers. Raw and Gently Cooked Recipes begin with a nutritious selection of vital proteins: Non-GMO certified Turkey and Chicken; Organic Beef; or grass-fed, free-range or wild-harvested Lamb, Beef, Goat, Duck, Bison, Rabbit, Venison, Boar, Kangaroo, or Salmon. Recipes are formulated with 100% Organic vegetables and sprouted grains – with no sprayed-on synthetic vitamins and minerals.
(Est. $30 for 5 lbs. and up) is one frozen raw cat food that gets good feedback, including a listing among the top-tier foods at the Natural Cat Care Blog. The food balances raw meat (chicken, in this flavor) with finely ground bone, organs (chicken liver, gizzard and heart), along with some organic egg yolk, psyllium powder and added vitamins and minerals to make a complete, balanced, everyday diet for your cat. The company says its foods are made from locally sourced, free-range, GMO-free whole meats and poultry.

Some people use pre-made, ground raw diets to switchtheir cats to raw food. I personally am not a fan of ground raw diets,for reasons already mentioned about taurine, and for reasons listed onthe mythpage. However, I understand that for some it can be an importantstepping stone to a species appropriate raw diet. If you choose to usea ground raw diet for switching your cat, I strongly encourage you tobegin feeding whole pieces of meat and raw meaty bones as soon aspossible. Cats can and do become 'addicted' to pre-made raw diets andwill not try anything else outside of them. Unfortunately, these dietsdo nothing for helping keep their teeth clean. Additionally, many ofthe pre-made diets contain vegetables; vegetables are COMPLETELYUNNECESSARY for cats. Cats are 'obligate carnivores', meaning they MUSTeat other animals to survive. They do not consume nor need plantmatter. Everything they could possibly need is found in the flesh,bone, and organs of their prey.If you can not find or afford these meats, however, you don’t have to throw out the baby with the bath water. Feeding your cat a raw meat homemade diet with meats you purchase at the supermarket is going to be far superior and healthier for your cat and the planet, than sticking to commercial pet food – the majority of which is manufactured using the worst bits and pieces left over from factory farming. Organic commercial kibble or organic canned pet foods are not better, in my opinion, to a raw meat homemade food using FRESH supermarket meat intended for you and your children. I don’t mean to advocate factory farming, but to keep things in perspective. Livestock intended for slaughter must go through a withdrawal period to allow hormones, antibiotics, and other medication to be flushed out of the body. Residuals are, however, a reality with meats from animals treated and raised with medication, antibiotics (often used as growth stimulant), and growth hormones.

Press Release – Royal Bank of Canada Donation for Colorado River Restoration
Bank Helps Launch Conservation Lands Foundation’s Youth Corps Partnership Project on America’s #1 Most Endangered River
April 24, 2013 – The Conservation Lands Foundation is pleased to announce a new funding partnership in Colorado with Royal Bank of Canada (RBC). One of Canada’s largest corporate donors and contributors to charitable organizations worldwide, RBC’s $10,000 gift to the Conservation Lands Foundation will fund restoration work on the Colorado River in the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area.
In April, the Colorado River was placed at the top of the 2013 List of America’s Most Endangered Rivers. Over-allocation of the river and drought has placed significant stress on water supplies, river health, and fish and wildlife in Colorado. Royal Bank of Canada’s donation supports on-the-ground work at the end of May to help restore the river.
The funding enables volunteer and paid crews to conduct an intensive project on the river as it flows through the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area, part of the National Conservation Lands. The National Conservation Lands are a 28-million-acre system of protected lands in the west known for their culturally, ecologically and scientifically significant landscapes managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The Western Colorado Conservation Corps will collaborate with the Bureau of Land Management and community volunteer crews for a week of on-the-ground work to remove invasive tamarisk and Russian olive trees from the banks of the Colorado River. These deep-rooted plants obtain water from permanent ground supplies or from the water table, and present a threat to the river’s water supply that is needed by native flora and fauna as well as by the river’s water recreation users.
Volunteers will also remove Russian knapweed, and plant and protect native Freemont cottonwoods and coyote willow. The re-introduction of these native species will enhance wildlife habitat, help rehabilitate the river corridor and improve water quality.
The gift is part of RBC’s “Blue Water Project,” launched in 2007. The Blue Water Project is a wide-ranging, multi-year program to help foster a culture of water stewardship in Canada and abroad. RBC has committed in excess of $36 million to more than 500 organizations for awareness, education and on-the-ground programs that protect watersheds and ensure access to clean drinking water.
“We are extremely grateful to RBC for helping us put ‘boots on the ground’ in Colorado,” said Brian O’Donnell, executive director of the Conservation Lands Foundation. “McInnis Canyons and the Colorado River are cornerstones of the National Conservation Lands and important to so many people. RBC’s gift has given this partnership and river an important boost.”
The funding supports the first project by a new Veterans-Youth Conservation Corps Partnership initiated by the Conservation Lands Foundation last the fall aimed at enhancing water quality, wildlife habitat and creating jobs on National Conservation Lands. The partnership is a unique collaboration of private funders, youth conservation corps, veterans and community volunteers.
“The Royal Bank of Canada’s donation allows Colorado youth corps to provide a lifeline to one of the American West’s most precious resources: the Colorado River,” said Jennifer Freeman, executive director of the Colorado Youth Corps Association, a coalition of accredited, statewide youth conservation corps.
“This gift is a testament not only to the importance of river restoration in our state, but also speaks to the hard work and proven abilities of young people to protect our natural resources. We extend a hearty thanks to Royal Bank of Canada for its generosity.”
“From trail construction to invasive species removal, youth corps crews play a vital role in public lands management in Colorado,” said Helen Hankins, BLM Colorado State Director. “We truly appreciate the collaboration between the Conservation Lands Foundation, the Royal Bank of Canada and the Colorado Youth Corps Association as their efforts expand our capabilities while creating employment opportunities for youth.”

NORTH LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — A 35-year-old woman named Naomi Ransome has been arrested for attempted murder, arson and assault after an incident in October 2020.
According to police, Ransome met a woman at an "underground strip club" on Losee Road near Cheyenne Avenue and Craig Road.
She told the woman she was homeless and the woman invited her back to her apartment.
Ransome reportedly smoked methamphetamine at the apartment before leaving with an unidentified person in a car.
Upon returning, she began accusing the resident of stealing $800 from her. Ransome then asked the unidentified person to retrieve a gun from the car. The person did so and gave the gun to Ransome, who began pointing it at the resident.
The other person grabbed the gun from Ransome and told her that it was not worth it. At that point, the resident ran to the bathroom to hide and call the police. Ransome quickly trashed the apartment and left before police arrived.
The next morning, the resident says she woke up to a loud bang and could hear Ransome yelling. She then heard several more loud bangs and discovered a fire outside her apartment.
Police discovered that someone had poured gasoline on a garbage can and set it on fire.
According to the arrest report, police have been looking for Ransome since the incident. She was arrested on Feb. 24 and is scheduled to appear in court on April 6.

On Monday Britain's inquiry into historical child sex abuse scandals, some involving celebrities and politicians had its first public hearing.
The inquiry has seen a sleuth of problems, including three chairmen quitting since it was launched three years ago.
It heard thousands of children, many of whom were in care or from deprived backgrounds, were relocated to distant corners of the British empire over hundreds of years and were exposed to "unacceptable depravity" including torture, sexual abuse and slavery.
Giving his testimony, David Hill, who was sent to Australia aged 12, broke down as he recalled the "endemic" problem of sexual abuse at Fairbridge Farm School in Molong.
The former child migrant said: “The second thing I hope this inquiry can do is promote an understanding of the long-term consequences and suffering of those who were sexually abused.
"Many never recover and are permanently afflicted with guilt, shame, diminished self-confidence, low self-esteem and trauma.
"We will never be able to undo the great wrong done to these children but what is important to survivors of sexual abuse is, where this inquiry is satisfied with the evidence, to name the villains."
The inquiry is one of the most expensive undertaken in Britain and was set up in July 2014, by Prime Minister Theresa May in her former role as interior minister.
David Hill, a former child migrant, broke down as he recalled the ‘endemic’ problem of sexual abuse
Many never recover and are permanently afflicted with guilt, shame, diminished self-confidence
It was launched after a series of abuse scandals that dated back decades and shocked the public, and it is expected to take around five years to complete.
A number of victims have complained of coverups on the behest of powerful establishment figures including senior lawmakers, spies and police officers.
Chairman Alexis Jay, who oversaw a 2014 investigation into wrongdoing in the northern English town of Rotherham which revealed some 1,400 children had been abused, said: "This is an important day for the work of the inquiry.”
At the start of the hearing, Henrietta Hill, a lawyer to the inquiry, said: "In those institutions or schools, child migrants have given evidence they were subject to extremely harsh conditions, hard labour and physical abuse by those responsible for their welfare.
"In addition, there are allegations of widespread and systematic sexual abuse taking place in those institutions, or some of them.
"You are likely to hear very emotional accounts from former child migrants of the decades of pain they have caused.
"The UK government provided partial funding for the child migration scheme, approved the residential institutions and was responsible for consenting to the migration of children sent from local authority care."
The inquiry is the first major domestic investigation into the abuse claims, following an apology to child migrants from prime minister Gordon Brown in 2010.
Australia was one of the primary destination for children involved in the migration scheme
Samantha Leek QC, appearing on behalf of the Government, said: "Child migration is wrong. It should not have been sanctioned or facilitated by the Government.
"Knowing what we know today, it is hard to believe that a policy of child migration could have been justified in any way by the welfare needs of the children involved.
"The lifelong consequences for those involved are a matter of deep and sincere regret."
The probe will scrutinise 13 institutions, ranging from local authorities to the army, for child protection failings, focusing on the post-war period.

Steve Standefer (1968) Baritone Saxophone
I was a member of the original New Trier West Recording Jazz Ensemble which formed in the spring of 1967, in the wake of the very first NTW student musical, Potpourri ’66, in the fall of that year. I played baritone sax in the jazz ensemble, alto sax in the Symphonic Band, and in the orchestra when needed. In those days it could not automatically be assumed that clarinet players doubled on either sax or flute, so sometime orchestra pits at school musicals, etc., got quite full. It was all fun, though, and when Coach Mills asked if we would like to keep it going, no one said, “Naaaaa…” We were all on board!
I will attempt to sum up my experience in all of that, along with what it was like, in other ways, to be a NTW student. I was with the grand old ensemble until spring of 1969 when I wandered away to focus on something else that had started to matter to me. I was not much of a scholar, but I did go to the University of North Texas (at that time North Texas State), which was then, as now, one of the leading jazz education institutes in the country, if not the world. It was then that I realized putting down the horn was not such a bad idea. I had a roommate, in the dorm, who did the clarinet-tenor sax-flute thing as a jazz major, and then later went to the Air Force Bands, Woody Herman’s Thundering Herd, and Stan Kenton. When I realized how outclassed he was as an undergraduate, and saw how hard he had to work, I knew just sitting back and enjoying the music was my destiny. As it was my roommate, and friend (RIP), ended his musical career in law school in St. Louis.
I spent the 70’s drifting in and out of school, work, and family, trying to combine the three somehow, and ended up with what I considered to be a pretty strong, if diverse, general education, perfect for graduate school. Thinking I would at some point end up in either a second-tier law school or MBA program somewhere down the road, or teaching. I ended up in the Library and Information Studies program at Louisiana State University (LSU). My time from 1982 on was spent in public library administration, serving a world that needed its libraries. I never did teach, as some though I would, and never took French which has left a gap in my larnin’. And, oh yes: I am a Kiwanian.
So much knowledge, information, and books, and so little time.
Thank you, New Trier Township High Schools, with special recognition to the New Trier West High School Recording Jazz Ensemble.

Spokane couple organizers blood drive after lifesaving transfusion
SPOKANE, Wash. — A Spokane mother who lost pints and pints of blood during a complicated birth two months ago is using her experience to inspire others to donate blood.
It’s been eight weeks since Brent and Stephanie Johnson brought their daughter Ellie home from the hospital.
“I had heard her cry twice and the doctor said, ‘Happy birthday, Ellie. It’s your birthday,’ and I remember looking at my husband and then I didn’t remember anything after that,” Stephanie Johnson said. “I woke up and it was four hours later.”
She later found out that during those four hours she underwent a blood transfusion. Stephanie Johnson said she needed six units of blood, including two liters of plasma.
“Without the blood that they gave us, Ellie wouldn’t have had a mom and Brent wouldn’t have had a wife,” Stephanie Johnson said.
Blood donations, like the ones that saved this new mom’s life, happen less frequently during summer, according to Inland Northwest Blood Center (INBC) Marketing and Communications Specialist Tesia Hummer.
“When the weather is nicer, people want to be outside. They want to go have fun…We might not be top of mind,” Hummer said.
Fewer donations impact patients at the more than 35 hospitals across the region that Hummer said rely on INBC.
“Because people, like Stephanie, you know, they needed that blood to survive and therefore, you know, it is vital that we ensure a safe blood supply regardless of what time of year it is,” Hummer said.
That’s why the Johnson family is working with INBC to save lives and raise awareness about donating through their own blood drive this summer.
Brent Johnson said he’s given blood before, but only now realizes the full impact of the act.
“Until you really receive it, then it really hits home, like this is important, you know. We just want to say thank you to the people who do donate and ask people to continue because it’s important and there is a constant need,” Brent Johnson said.
People can donate blood at Spokane area INBC locations August 6-10, in honor of Stephanie Johnson. She said she already had friends and coworkers donate after her daughter’s birth, but wants to inspire more people.
“I realize through this whole process the value of it and if I could save someone’s life, I could, you know, I could get over a needle poke and a couple of minutes of my time,” Stephanie Johnson said. “You can be a hero just by giving blood. You can save a life.”
You can schedule an appointment to donate blood here.
I cannot wait to introduce you to Ellie and her parents. Their story is a great reminder of how you can impact people’s lives when you donate blood to .@INBCsaves #KXLY #Spokane #donateblood pic.twitter.com/jX45mbxono

When presenting my ideas for work to be shown at the end of term show, my tutor asked me what my stake in these panels was ?
This was the first sighting of the Hammersmith Bridge road panels - they were being replaced in August 2011 as they were near the end of their 25 year life - this is one of some 900 panels on the bridge and has survived 25 years of constant heavy traffic, two real IRA bombs and the onset of rust.
I ended up returning a number of times to negotiate the acquisition of four of the panels - I met a really helpful London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham project engineering manager who smoothed the way for me to pick them up - after a donation to the Mayor's favourite charity, Braveheart.
The next step, in late September, was to hire a van to pick up the panels and convince one of my sons that it would be an life adventure he'd never forget ...
The panels are stored in the locked room under the north side of the bridge - it also contains many old traffic signs and the bales of straw, that are hung from the bridge when work is being carried out, as a warning to sailing ships on the Thames. The atmosphere in the room was quite unique, with the constant thunder of traffic from above, light pouring in through gaps in the structure and the smell of old straw bales and sand bags.
Before we could move them we needed to record in detail the 50 or so bolt holes on each panel - they are effectively unique templates for each panel's position on the bridge - to make it more complicated the holes came in two sizes - after a few false starts we worked out a way of recording the postions of each hole.
The loading of the panels was a much tougher job than we had at first thought.
After storing the panels at home for a while I hired another van and son to take them into college in November.
Before I could cut them in the metal workshop, I had to manually remove the rubber compound on each panel - this was a bit of a revelation as they came off as one piece and were a mirror image of the red oxide paint and rust patches on the steel panel.
Then it was into the workshop to be kitted up for working with the plasma cutter ...
First panel hung drawn and quartered.
Then experimenting with presentation in my studio.
Tried putting them on different length stilts and wheels and adding a JR's inside-out project poster of me, me, me ...
see http://www.insideoutproject.net/ for more details.
and also http://jr-art.net/
Found a use for some old skateboard wheels and snooker balls
The group curation at the end of term show resulted in a three piece work.
So what was my stake in these panels ?
Three months of hard negotiation, prodding, recording, documenting, moving, removing, storing, stripping, cutting, reassembling, rolling, wrapping, rearranging and presenting.

"I am grateful for the opportunity to have served on our state's highest court," Kelly said in a statement. "I leave the Supreme Court knowing that our judicial system is better equipped to help families and children."
Kelly won election to an eight-year term in 2010. GOP Gov. Rick Snyder will name her successor, who will serve through next year but could run in November 2016 to finish the remainder of Kelly's term through 2018.
"Justice Kelly has written important opinions and made her presence felt on this bench," Chief Justice Robert Young Jr. said in a statement. "In particular, my colleagues and I have appreciated the experience and insights she brought from leading the state's largest circuit court."
Kelly will join Bodman PLC's Detroit office, where she will become vice chair of the firm's litigation and alternative dispute resolution practice group.
She said she feels like she achieved her public service objectives and returning to private practices will "open many community service opportunities that I could not pursue as a Supreme Court justice."
Kelly was a Wayne County circuit judge from 1999-2010 and is the only woman to serve as chief judge of that court.

I know your supposed to wait 3 Months, but I made this clay this morning.
Make clay, add yoghurt and wait 3 months for it to mature. The yoghurt feeds bacteria, bacteria eat the edges of the clay particles and let the water penetrate further.
This is fine if your not curious. I'm wanting to see what colour this fires too, and putting a little ball of it in the kiln doesn't cut it sometimes. I'm interested to see what the iron oxide fires like. I bought it from the local hardware store. Meant for colouring concrete it's not as refined as my usual source. I think this is why you can see it streaking.
The base will be narrowed a little when I throw a foot on. The clay gets pushed across to work in with the added foot clay and help it all meld together.

A Concise Introduction To Casino Gambling
In common usage, the term casino is applied to any gaming establishment or club where card games, blackjack, roulette, baccarat and other gambling games have been played. The word is also utilized to describe any club or location where gambling on sporting events may be obtained, often with the result still uncertain until the last outcome is announced. A few synonyms for casino comprise slots (also known as slots and roll) and video poker machines.
Blackjack and slots are the most popular gambling games at a casino. They form the cornerstone of most casinos, and so there's excellent competition among them. A casino may have a variety of slots, from big, high-floor ones on the main floor to multiplex units that are separated by doorways in a lower degree. 릴게임 Card game titles are sometimes found inside casinos, too. And video poker machines, which permit the player to play with a video poker game out (without taking part in the action), are very common in casinos.
There are two forms of slots available at an internet casino. Portable ones, like the Ace Blackjack slot machine, can be moved from 1 area to another; they are not permanently attached to the casino land. However, most other types are immovable and remain in precisely the exact same location throughout the casino.
There are two other types of gaming devices at casinos, including table games and card counting machines. Nearly all card-counting machines are standalone machines. These are not connected to other casinos or into the gambling floor and so can't be moved. But some do include card counting counters with internal machines which are related to the gaming system in the casino.
Many casinos offer several different kinds of casino gambling gear. Besides the card and slots counting machines, they also have roulette wheels and blackjack tables. Roulette and baccarat are live games, so they're not true slots. However, you can find wireless possibilities for these types of gambling devices, which may still allow players to use their credit cards. Most of these gaming devices are available free to clients who visit their sites.
High rollers often like to play blackjack, craps, or even poker. Most dwell casinos feature live card counting matches. But some do offer video poker and high roller machines that allow video players to place bets before they spin the roulette wheel. Online casinos can offer both live and nonstop video betting. You will find progressive slots that offer higher payouts over time. There are not any limits on the amount of bets you can make.
Skill games are designed to check a player's ability to count, examine, and follow instructions. They frequently include such casino games like blackjack, baccarat, and blackjack. Blackjack, a card counting game, is one of the most popular skill games offered in casinos. Some high rollers prefer to play skill games, since they can get much better payouts than if they played for money. Roulette is an alternative for men and women that want to play with high-roller games.
Casino gambling is a favorite with lots of gamblers. There are lots of casino games to choose from and most of these offer some type of wagering. There's no question that most casinos make money from your sales of tickets and gaming machines. The most essential factor is the amount of money casino operators and owners make off these transactions.
One reason the gambling industry has flourished at such a rapid pace is because the government and other teams have made it easy for gamblers to get loans and credit. Such loans often come with interest rates which are much below those charged by financial institutions. This has created the gambling industry tremendously wealthy. The government has played a major part in making gambling more accessible to ordinary people.
The growth of video games has also contributed to the wealth of casino gaming. Video games make it possible for players to play with virtual money. This removes the need for them to handle real cash, consequently decreasing the danger of getting into gambling issues. This advantage is especially beneficial to low-income or minority individuals who may otherwise find it difficult to access gaming amenities. Lots of people do not know about the availability of video games in many casinos. Due to this, many novices tend to gamble without realizing the threat they are taking.
Internet casino gambling can be an extremely rewarding experience for gamers who are willing to put in time and effort. A newcomer will find that it is easier to learn the essentials of online gaming than it's in a conventional casino setting. A seasoned casino player may also benefit from learning how to use the many different kinds of software provided on gambling websites. By doing a small bit of study, a brand new gambler can start their gaming experience without much trouble.

Is there anything more annoying than a press release printed as a genuine newspaper article? I think not. This one claims that bison meat is so desired that producers can barely keep up with demand. Fine – and what’s that demand? 92,000 pounds per year. That compares to U.S. consumption of 27 billion pounds of beef in 2009.
I’m not anti-bison, I think they’re great. But newspapers who print ridiculous articles like this deserve to fold.
UPDATE: Do they read my blog? They’ve corrected the article to say that it’s 92,000 head, not pounds, and note that that is still less than 1% of U.S. beef production.

CLARION, Pa. – Hampton used an 8-0 run at the start of the fourth quarter to pull away from Punxsutawney for a 41-29 win over Punxsutawney in the opening round of the PIAA Class AAA girls’ playoffs Saturday night at Clarion University’s Tippin Gym.
The Lady Chucks (20-5) were hanging around after three quarters trailing by just six, 30-24, after a personal 5-0 run by Alli Lunger, who finished with a team-high 12 points, had cut into an 11-point deficit.
But Hampton (20-6), the third-place team out of the WPIAL, got free throws from Arrayn Griggs and Brianna Murray and baskets from Jenna Lafko and Natalie Dean in the first four minutes of the fourth quarter to extend the lead to 14, 38-14.
Listen to Punxsutawney first-year head coach Mike Carlson talk about the game and the Lady Chucks season.
Punxsutawney was able to stay close through three quarters by weathering Hampton runs.
The Talbots started the game up 12-5 before three straight points by the Lady Chucks got them within four, 12-8, at the end of the first quarter.
But Hampton came out strong to start the second quarter scoring six straight points, including four from Lafko, who finished with a game-high 13 points, to take a 10-point lead, 18-8, a minute into the quarter.
Punxsutawney answered thanks to Lunger who scored all seven points during a half-ending 7-9 run that got the Lady Chucks within three, 18-15, at halftime.
Leah Miller, who ended with six points and 12 rebounds, then cut the deficit to one, 18-17, with a basket off an offensive rebound 1:11 into the second half.
But Miller’s bucket was the last points Punxsutawney would score for over four minutes.
That drought allowed Hampton to go on an 8-0 run to push the lead back to nine, 26-17, on a basket by Dean, who added 11 points, off a turnover with 2:48 to go in the third quarter.
Turnovers were part of the undoing of the Lady Chucks, who gave the ball away 29 times on the night.
Even a basket by Kylee Lingenfelter, her only hoop of the night, couldn’t stop the Talbot momentum as buckets by Alison Collins and Lafko, both off turnovers, extended the Hampton lead to 11, 30-19, with 1:20 left in the third quarter.
Lunger, though, got the Lady Chucks back in the contest with a basket at the 1:05 mark followed by a 3-pointer with 42.3 seconds left in the third quarter to close the gap to the six points it was at the end of three.
Hampton will now face Villa Maria in the second round Wednesday at a time and place to be determined.
HAMPTON 41, PUNXSUTAWNEY 29

Sleep is the new single from singer Victoria Anthony. The upbeat pop track sees the Vancouver-based artist belting out the tune as an animated cityscape shifts around her.
It’s the first release from the 15-year-old who first came to public attention three years ago when she took a turn at the mic at the Pink show at Rogers Arena in Vancouver.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
That self-assured take on Pink’s hit Perfect not only had the pop star thanking Anthony and calling her amazing, it has also garnered over 12 million YouTube views. Big-name acts would like to get that kind of attention for their slick videos. Anthony used her 2:59 minutes of fame in front of 20,000 people to kickstart a career.
Real Life, which was released Oct. 23, appears to be a winner.
The single Gotta Get Up has nearly 400,000 views, while Sleep has wracked up over 500,000. Among those who Anthony has collaborated with on the album are songwriters and producers Justin Gray (Avril Lavigne); Ryan Stuart (Carly Rae Jepsen); and Rob Wells (Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber).
Anthony took time to chat with Postmedia News about the upcoming album and some promotional shows:
Q: So this is the accumulation of a few years of dedicated hard work on your part. Does it feel like Real Life is taking your career to the next level?
A:: We last talked after the Pink show happened and a lot has gone on since then. I did a lot of writing which wound up becoming Real Life, released the first two singles and the videos to go with them and now the third single — the album title track — has arrived with a new video too. It’s a strange time to launch an album, maybe, but it feels right for me.
Q: The hits your songs are getting both on YouTube and streaming services such as Spotify suggest your timing is spot on. Do you know who your fans are?
A: I think that the audience is very diverse. I see a lot of older people as well as their kids, who are younger than me, who the music is appealing too. The songs are catchy, with good beats and melodies, but they have meaning behind them too. So I think that appeals across different audiences.

For years, people all over the world have enjoyed watching movies in 3D. The way the glasses make the people and things in the movie pop out at you is amazing. But what if you could have it in your own home when simply watching TV? Of course this idea is not too amazing; if they can do it with a movie, why not TV? But, what if we could view our favorite TV show in 3D without those pesky glasses? A little more complicated to do, I’d say. But, many technology companies have been working on this idea of being able to get the 3D effect at home for many years now. In fact, at the CES, or Consumer Electronics Show, 3D TVs have been on display every year for the past couple of years, improving each year. But, how can we look at 3D without the glasses? To find the answer, we must look inside our brain.
Our brains are constantly putting together pieces of information to form an image. Naturally, our brains are able to create depth, which is why we see in 3D in reality. To capture the same effect and use in in 3D with glasses, the movie is filmed from two different angles, called parallax view, to capture the natural angles of each eye. Then, the glasses, acting as a parallax barrier, with the red and blue filters, block the red hues from one eye and the blue hues from the other eye in order to allow our eyes to create depth. Then, our favorite heroine is suddenly popping out of the screen, like we could actually reach out and touch him. However, in order to have the same effect without glasses, there must be a parallax barrier on the TV screen itself. The image is broken up into different alternating bands of pixels that are blocked, so you only see fully from the left and right eye at one time. This creates the effect of 3D from the TV screen. This technology is far from perfect, however; there are still many positions in which you cannot watch the TV from, lest you don’t want to view it in 3D. But imagine being able to perfect it; my guess is that in a few years, your favorite program will be catching your eye—literally.

ISLAMABAD: The Federal Government-funded 10th Avenue project has not progressed as intended, despite the Capital Development Authority (CDA) making progress on other municipal development projects with its own resources at the same time.
According to details, the project’s administrators cited a lack of finance as the primary cause of the project’s poor progress.
The sources say that the project is sponsored by the Public Sector Development Program of the federal government (PSDP) which has a total cost of Rs. 12.13 billion, of which Rs. 1.48 billion was given to CDA in the previous fiscal year.
However, this year, the city administrators were unable to gain significant funds from the federal government, forcing them to put the project on hold, the sources confirmed.
According to a senior officer of the civic authority, the government had only given Rs. 350 million, although CDA needed an allocation of roughly Rs. 5 billion to continue this project’s anticipated progress.
It is to note that the project had a December 2017 groundbreaking and a September 2023 completion date, giving it just 21 months to complete. However, according to reports, the project is well behind schedule and may take two to three years to complete.
The CDA’s spokesperson stated that 10th Avenue will not only serve to relieve traffic congestion on IJP Road and 9th Avenue, but it will also give inhabitants of I-10, I-11, and Rawalpindi, an alternate route to Islamabad.
It is worth adding that this project begins at IJP Road and finishes at Srinagar Highway, which includes a 5 km road, 14 bridges and flyovers, 6 underpasses, 2 lanes of flexible pavement, 1 lane of the shoulder on each side, 3 culverts, and 2 overhead bridges.

Body Image among teenage girls with a developing lesbian sexuality
Body image does not exist in a vacuum. Each of us grows up among images and ideas of how individuals are ‘meant’ to look, or the ‘preferred’ appearance within that culture and society. Whatever is currently ‘fashionable’ is promoted through the media, through pressure put on children and young people from their families and peers and through ideas and images to which they are exposed in many different ways. There is little question that girls and young women are impacted by this more than boys and young men (which is not to say that males are unimpacted) in the 21st-century UK. In a recent survey conducted by the Mental Health Foundation among teens aged 13 to 19, 46% of girls (as opposed to 25% of boys) reported that their body image causes them to worry ‘often’ or ‘always’.
Pressures on young lesbians
In recent years, expectations concerning personal presentation appear to have regressed, with expectations of even quite young children to conform to sex stereotypes. These expectations are clear not only in clothes and toy shops but in the images presented in film, on TV, on social media etc. These expectations of appearance are closely tied to expectations of girls’ appearance being pleasing to boys – indeed, to a stereotypical notion of what is understood to be pleasing to boys even if this is not the reality.
Girls who do not welcome the attention of boys, and most particularly those who are not attracted to boys, are placed in a difficult position. The pressure to be ‘shapely’, to conform to the body image understood to be appropriate for a girl to aspire to, leaves girls who have no wish for such attention and thus no incentive to undertake the expected body sculpting (which may entail dieting, growing hair long, wearing bras which emphasise the breasts) feeling alienated from their peer group. They may be conflicted about their bodies, torn between a desire to conform and a revulsion against what such conformity entails.
The young lesbian’s sense of her body thus becomes problematic. She wishes to assert her physical being in a different way from that regarded as appropriate for the stereotype encouraged by her peers and by images presented in the media. But the mode of body expression she may favour is not ‘acceptable’ and she may therefore suffer from shame and guilt about her body.
In recent years, the result may be that she decides that she must be transgender. Not fitting into the accepted body presentation for a girl, feeling ill at ease in her body, she finds a ready welcome as a ‘transboy’: not just among her peers, but even in the NHS system set up to provide care and treatment for young people with varying types of what we might call ‘gender confusion’.
In other words, girls struggling with lesbianism are encountering pressure from peers and social media to identify as ‘trans’, and clinicians are going along with this ‘self-diagnosis’. Lucy Bannerman in an article in The Times of 8 April 2019 concerning the Tavistock’s Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) writes that ‘So many potentially gay children were being sent down the pathway to change gender, two of the clinicians said there was a dark joke among staff that “there would be no gay people left”.’
This link between treatment for gender dysphoria and underlying homophobic attitudes – including attitudes to non-stereotypical physical presentation – was reaffirmed by comments in the BBC Newsnight report of 18 June 2020 on GIDS and the use of puberty blockers. It is clear that those who have internalised negative feelings about their emerging lesbianism, or whose families are homophobic, are being encouraged to think they are boys, and are taking puberty blockers followed by testosterone to “transition”. This has everything to do with a negative body image mixed up with negative feelings about their sexuality.
Among ‘butch’ lesbians these problems are exacerbated
[This section draws on Katherine Hiestand & Heidi Levitt, Butch identity development: The formation of an authentic gender.]
Girls whose emerging sexuality is that of a more masculine type of lesbian experience problems trying to ‘maintain fidelity to aspects of their gender that they considered to be masculine’. They have trouble adjusting to the widening differences between their bodies and those of their male peers: puberty is experienced as a betrayal by the body:
‘my guy friends were able to express their interest in the opposite sex and I wasn’t . . . I felt like my body was betraying my mind because until then it had been very convenient like – everyone thought I was a boy. And I remember that the whole lovely bra issue was … the final [straw] of ‘OK. I cannot will this away. I am a female.’
The article by Hiestand and Levitt lists six stages of homosexual ‘identity’: confusion, comparison, tolerance, acceptance, pride, and synthesis, in which individuals recognize that homosexual identity is only one aspect of themselves.
The second stage, ‘comparison’ depends entirely on the social context: the girls compare themselves to others in order to position themselves. ‘For many of the respondents, the turning point in this process was meeting other women who identified as butch. Their exposure to butch–femme flirtation and social dynamics helped them re-construe butchness as a sexually desirable aesthetic.’
It should be noted that this article dates from 2005. In today’s world, with vanishingly few lesbians, let alone butch lesbians, as role models, these girls instead see people similar to themselves ‘transitioning’. Some may conclude (and detransitioners confirm this) that they are trans rather than homosexual, and that they need to alter their bodies. Hiestand and Levitt also note: ‘On average, youth self-labeled as gay or lesbian at about age 15’. It may be noted that the largest number of girls applying to the GIDS clinic are age 15 to 16, and there has been a 4,400% increase in the number of girls seeking treatment at Tavistock GIDS clinic over the past decade.
The reinforcement of dissatisfaction with body image
For those feeling that their physical body has ‘something wrong’ with it, the internet provides a myriad of ways to connect to others feeling the same. Just as the ‘pro-ana’ websites encourage young people in potentially dangerous ways of ‘managing’ anorexia, so there are a range of websites concerning apparent ‘cures’ for discomfort with the body.
As Marcus Evans (formerly a consultant psychotherapist at the Tavistock clinic) says, young people focussing their sense of ‘not being right’ on their sexed body are often
‘dissociated from their natal body, which they feel contains unwanted or unacceptable parts of the self. The fantasy that the individual can sculpt the body according to his/her wishes adds (temporarily) to the sense of power and control over the body and everything contained within it.’
This underlies the frequent decision that ‘transition’ to ‘a different gender’ is the solution to unhappiness with body image. It is a solution readily offered through radio series, television programmes and dramas, articles in newspapers and magazines (including those aimed at teenagers) and, with perhaps most impact, the young YouTubers and Instagrammers.
Miles McKenna, born in 1995, has 1.17 million subscribers to the YouTube channel, ‘Miles Chronicles’. The physical changes, from the girl who began the channel five years ago to the transman now, are recorded, along with much that suggests that Miles’ life is great fun and should be understood as a good role model. While Miles is based in the USA, this is by no means an American phenomenon. Alex Bertie (also born in 1995), from Dorset, began a YouTube channel at 14, apparently soon ‘realising’ an identity as a ‘transgender man’. The current 297K subscribers to the channel represent a fall from over 300K, but given that there have been no updates recently, that is a clear indication of the popularity of these videos. The Alex Bertie Instagram account has 79K followers and is regularly updated. There are many other accounts, on YouTube, Instagram, Twitter and elsewhere, avidly followed by those who hope for a ‘solution’ to their concerns about their body image.
As Marcus Evans (op. cit.) says,
‘The whole idea of treating gender dysphoria medically is to shift the focus of the problem from the mind into the body. But while beliefs may change, the effects of such medical interventions may be irreversible.’
The notion of having ‘the wrong body’ is now common parlance and underpins much of the discourse concerning ‘body image’.
For the girl whose body image ‘fails’ to match the stereotype, her search for validation no longer contains the likelihood of discovering other young lesbians and for groups validating one’s physical appearance and sexual orientation. As previously indicated, such groups and role models no longer exist, having been subsumed into ‘LGBTQ+’ organisations where transgender is encouraged as the ‘right’ way to deal with not fitting into stereotypes. The increasing homophobia attached to body image means that many girls who perceive themselves as ‘too masculine’ or inadequately ‘feminine’ are opting for the drastic choice of declaring themselves transgender. Medical and surgical support for such a decision may well lead to irreversible physical changes, causing further distress should the individual become psychologically reconciled to their natural body.
There is no more radical ‘body image’ problem than believing that you are in the wrong body altogether and taking action, through drugs and surgery, to change it. For some young people this may perhaps be the best solution to their distress. For many it is not. We believe that the forthcoming case against the Tavistock GIDS clinic will be the first of many to lay bare a horrifying truth: that society, and the medical world, is colluding in a large-scale experiment on vulnerable young people, that leads to a lifetime on medication, infertility, and a range of health problems.
These children and young people have such a skewed image of their bodies that they want a new one. Tragically, they are being persuaded, through conventional and social media, through peer pressure, through an unquestioning attitude on the part of clinicians at gender clinics, and the acceptance of ‘affirmation’ as the appropriate response in schools as well as the NHS, that it is possible to remake their bodies and change sex, and that this will solve their problems.
In short, the widespread negative body image among girls is exacerbated among young lesbians, through a wide range of different influences, and the near-total absence of a vibrant lesbian life and lesbian role models, leading to potentially irreversible actions. There is an urgent need for research on this issue.

The Last Vestige record shop in Saratoga is closing soon, reports the Post-Star's Thomas Dimopoulos.
And what about the Albany location?
"We're not going anywhere."
That was the word today when we called up the Quail Street shop and talked with Chris Lawrence, who's worked there for 10 years. He told us that business at the Albany location has been "pretty decent" lately. But, mirroring the problems in the music industry, business as a whole has been down the last few years. CD sales have taken an especially hard hit -- and the Saratoga location did much of its business selling those discs. "It came time to consolidate."
Lawrence said the Albany store still sells a lot of vinyl records, especially via eBay and mail order. He says they ship vinyl all over world -- even to far-off places such as Kazakhstan.
The Saratoga location opened in 1999. The shop's manager is trying to open a new store -- and there's a benefit concert planned to help out the effort.
The Albany location has been open for 20 years.
Earlier on AOA:
+ Heather called Last Vestige Saratoga the place for "a proper browsing and cop-a-media-feel experience."
+ The records keep spinning at Blue Note
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

Stories and images from Kitakagaya, an old Osaka neighborhood with little money, yet a wealth of strange, beautiful, and useful ways of approaching life, work, and cities.
Join a celebration and a journey through art, music, culture, and environmental landscapes in Osaka’s port-side creative village. シティーズネイチャーフェスティバルは皆のためのお祝いです。自然と水をテーマにした展覧会やトークイベント、ワークショップなどを行うアートフェスティバル。
Seeing trees as sacred is not an anomaly, it’s the fact that our culture has somehow lost this fellowship that’s an anomaly. If trees are a keystone of our wellness, why not learn to listen to their voice? If we did, how might the things we hear transform the landscape of our city over time? What would a city look like if it were designed by trees?
On the face, the installation is a simple call for visitors to take seed into the community to be planted. Yet it also asks us to reconsider the links between ourselves and the food we eat, and the role and power of a seed.
We are born to the world as a part of nature — well, except for test tube babies — and will also leave the world as a part of nature — okay, plus maybe some formaldehyde, antibiotics and whatnot. It’s just this whole ‘living’ part between being born and death where we seem to have things a little screwed up.

I got vaccinated against COVID-19 because it was the wisest thing for me to do. For my own protection. And to protect others.
I made up my mind at the beginning of the pandemic to be selective about where we get our information. We need to listen to our leaders and our health professionals. We have a proven system. So, I’d rather listen to them than listen to someone I don’t know on social media.
Be wise. Yarn with your local healthcare worker—and get vaccinated.
