It's time once more to take a little tour through your childhood Ma and Pa video shop, guys and ghouls [hehe... funny]. In the first chapter of this series I offered up a few of what I thought were my favorite old school horror covers and posters. Well, as usual hind sight was 20/20. While the pieces I included are great, in my opinion, there are way more that I somehow forgot. So with a clear mind, a bit of sleep, a lot more time, and some suggestions from Retro Junk visitors, let's see where this little trip takes us.
Yep. Santa's a serial killer. Like you didn't know.[/align]
This is another cover that particularly scared the living crap out of me. I've already mentioned how bathrooms and hospitals had been ruined for me by Ghoulies and Visiting Hours respectively but now they had to go after Santa. The very icon that all children idolized. Was nothing sacred in the attempt to "slasherize" every holiday? I remember seeing this cover for the first time in a little gas station along the highway in West Virginia. Of course this was around Christmas time. Needless to say for the next week or so I worried relentlessly that some fat rosey cheeked madman was going to shimmy down the chimney and axe my parents to death. Now that I think about it it's amazing that I took so well to an industry that seems so hellbent on destroying every ounce of innocence that I had. Oh well.
Does the movie live up: Meh. When I first saw it at 13 I thought it was great but that was probably just teenage hormones working. And in case you're wondering; no, Santa does not go on a killing spree in this movie. It's just some wacko obsessed with "punishing the naughty". Of course since this is a slasher flick all this naughtiness usually involves nubile women. Do not let children near this film, though.
This is what happens when you let Similac spoil.[/align]
This, like House, is a VHS that I saw in just about every Ma and Pa shop I've ever been too. And with good reason. It's yet another deceptively simple little piece. When you see it from a distance it looks like just a baby's bottle in a pitch black room. However, when you look closer you'll notice the green reptilian hell fiend that waits inside. And it's a pretty awsome looking monster to boot. Kind of a mix between an "Aliens" style alien, a gremlin, and a lizard. Fortunately when I first saw this cover I was well past the age where I drank from a bottle.
Does the movie live up: It's kind of a mixed bag really. It's about a guy and his mutated freak brother (the guy from the cover). It's got a cool monster and a couple of good death scenes but the story, acting, and such fall sort of flat.
Is that a killer drill in your pocket or...[/align]
Wow. I'm not sure where to start with this one. It's simply a bunch of attractive scantily clad teenaged girls piled on top of one another while a man waves his drill at them. Also notice where it seems that all the girls eyes are pointed. I'm not even going to touch the subliminal imagery here with a ten inch pole (heh). Now as a small child this one never grabbed my interest but of course when I reached those glorious early teen years this one became one of favorites. What can I say? I'm a male.
Does the movie live up: No. Not at all. It's got a dumb story, bad acting, boring kills, and a forgettable villain. There is a good story behind it's production though. Believe it or not this film was not originally concieved as some kind of male fantasy. No. It was actually written by a well known feminist as a parody of slasher films. It was changed by studio execs leaving us all to wonder what would have been. Or maybe that's just me.
Robert Ebert gave it his thumbs up even with the bad caricature of himself on the poster. What a sport. [/align]
I absolutely love this cover. Again it's one that every video store use to be required by law to carry. Thing is that back then it didn't actually scare me that much. I didn't really know why. I mean I used to be afraid of some muppets. This critter should have by all means terrified me but it just didn't. As an adult I finally know why. The little guy is freakin' adorable. Look at that jelly belly. He's like a cuddly teddy bear. A teddy bear that'll gnaw you to the bone, but a teddy bear none the less.
Does the movie live up: Oh God yes! This is a true B-movie classic. It's pretty much a Gremlins parody/homage/rip-off involving little flesh eating aliens that have wound up on earth. There are also a couple of bounty hunters who have been sent to exterminate them. It's got horror, action, and comedy all rolled into one nice hairy ball.
Even skeletons wear wonderbras.[/align]
You all better be able to figure out what this movies about. If a movie's box contains a skeleton in a cheerleaders outfit and the words Horror High then odds are it aint Hitchcock. I actually remember pretty specifically this poster hanging in a place called Snow White Video in Berea, KY for as long as I lived there. Odd thing is I don't recall ever seeing the actual MOVIE there. It is a damned cool picture for a poster though. I'd really like to know how they did it. Considering it was made in the years before advanced image editing sofware they may have actually put a skirt on a skeleton. I want that skeleton.
And the skirt.
Does the movie live up: Never seen it but probably not. How could it?
Not the best title for a documentary on France.[/align]
I really only say this movie in one video store as a child but, oh boy, is it memorable. The frog is almost cute except for the hand hanging out of it's mouth. Obvioulsy it's implied that our little amphibious friend somehow devoured some poor oaf. Sure, frog's don't have teeth and their bodies are much too small to hold a human corpse but SCREW LOGIC! THAT FROG ATE A GUY! And, honestly, when it comes to art don't evil frogs always beat reality?
Does the movie live up: If you have a taste for B-movies then yes. I mean, come on, it's about killer frogs. Don't be expecting Citizen Kane. As a side note - if you do want to see this movie try Wal-Mart. In my experience this DVD is legally required to sit in ALL Wal-Mart bargain bins.
Must... not... make... lame... Brokeback Mountain joke...[/align]
This cover takes the easy route. It grabs two of the coolest things known to man [cowboys and skeletons] and throws them together. A cheap strategy but a good one. I mean, who could pass on a skeleton cowboy? It seemed that back in the 80s and early 90s alot of cover art was done either by comic book artists or to look like the work of comic artists. A good idea I think and, in this day of poorly photoshopped independent DVD covers, one I sorely miss. The more horror-savvy of readers probably know that Ghost Town was a Charles Band production. Charles brand had a habit, whether good or bad, of placing his villains front and center on his covers and posters. Take a look at some of his other work...
See what I mean?
Does the movie live up: It's like "Army of Darknes" but in the old west. A cop gets pulled into the past to save a girl yadda yadda yadda. It's not terrible but it's also certainly not a classic. Ghost Town is the pure definition of "meh".
This fate awaits the makers of Raid.[/align]
It seemed that back in the day the video aisles were absolutely infested with bugs. With movies like Ticks, The Nest, Skeeter, Mosquito, Slugs, Squirm, and Arachniphobia it would be very easy for any kid who even glanced at the rack to develop some serious phobias. The creators of Creepers' cover art certainly knew this. The artwork seems to play off of three seperate fears. Firstly it's got the whole classic gothic theme working in the background. Secondly, it uses the fear of bugs that I mentioned already. Lastly, and most importantly, it invokes the inborn fear of infestation. The thought of millions of little monsters crawling on your skin (or even under it) is enough to give the toughest person a chill. Not to mention that the cover also looks simply cool. I'd love to get that tattooed on my back. I would do it if it weren't for those filfthy needles. Who knows what kind of eggs could be waiting on those things, eh?
Does the movie live up: The cut version (Creepers) does not. It's hard to follow and is pretty boring. The uncut version (Phenomena), however is definitely worth finding. It's a great little thriller about a girl who can control bugs through psychic ability. I've always felt that director Dario Argento was a bit overrated but this is, in my opinion, his best work.
IRON MAIDEN!!! Wait...[/align]
Oh... hell... yes... Now this is a COVER! If this picture doesn't epitomize 80s horror I don't know what does. It's outlandish, exaggerated, and still has artistic value. The best part is it's not at all hard to describe. There's a zombie reaching out of a TV and he looks pissed. So would you be if you lived in a television. This is undoubtedly done by either a comic book artist or a cd cover artist. The syle is so similar. Just look at that zombies face. Remember how I said I wanted to get a Creepers tattoo. Well I want to buy a school bus just so I can have this image airbrushed on the side. No kidding.
Does the movie live up: No. Oh sweet God no. Rent it if you like bad movies though. You'll have an absolute blast with it.
That's it for this chapter guys and ghouls [god that is SO funny]. Thanks for reading this overlong tribute to things that we probably remember better that those who actually made them. Be sure to look out for part 3...

THE September school holidays are shaping up to be a bumper spring season for the Capricorn Coast and Great Keppel Island.
Fundraisers, spring break and great weather teamed with 700 vehicles (1400 people) for the National Caravan Rally visiting Rockhampton Showgrounds from the September 24 to October 1 this year, have meant pre-bookings and walk-ins on the Freedom Fastcats to Great Keppel Island on Saturday, September 28 alone is up to 700 passengers.
Capricorn Enterprise CEO Mary Carroll said the region had not seen numbers like these going to Great Keppel Island for many years.
"I am thrilled for our operators who have worked so hard to provide improved product on the island and a variety of cruises and activities servicing Keppel Bay," Ms Carroll said.
The official visitor statistics from Tourism and Events Queensland for the March 2013 quarter showed a growth of 4% in domestic visitor numbers to the Southern Great Barrier Region.
The visiting friends and relatives (VFR) sector has shown very high growth, as well as business visitors to the destination.
Visitation to the Capricorn Coast over winter has been strong, thanks also to magnificent weather, and this is expected to continue for the remainder of the year.
Ms Carroll said our destination had fared well compared to other regions throughout Queensland and confidence on the Capricorn Coast was reflected in the new accommodation developments and businesses shaping the Capricorn Coast.
"In partnership with business, local government and community over the next six months, we will create a Destination Tourism Plan for the Capricorn Region which will be a blue-print for future tourism markets, growth and development of our tourism portfolio," Ms Carroll said.
In the lead up to the National Caravan Rally, visiting the region the region has already secured $30,000 of bookings for local tours and further bookings are expected closer to the event.
Ms Carroll said Capricorn Enterprise were coordinating group bookings for day cruises on Freedom Fastcats, Byfield day tours, Rockhampton Heritage tours, Great Western Hotel rodeo night, Capricorn Caves, Dreamtime, Mount Morgan and Mount Hay.
"Participants will also be taking in many of the other attractions available to the region during their visit via Little Johnny's Tours and self drive," Ms Carroll said.

Canadian cannabis producer Cronos Group has been slapped with sanctions, including an administrative penalty of 1.3 million Canadian dollars ($960,000), for improperly recognizing CA$7.6 million in revenue in its 2019 interim financial statements.
Ontario’s Capital Markets Tribunal on Monday approved a settlement between the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) and Cronos regarding the accounting errors.
The OSC found that Cronos improperly recognized the revenue in its first-, second- and third-quarter interim financial statements.
Cronos also overstated “virtually all” of its U.S. goodwill and a significant portion of its U.S. intangible assets by CA$234.9 million in the second quarter of 2021, the OSC said.
Those accounting errors resulted in the company restating interim financial statements for the three affected quarters.
In addition to the CA$1.3 million penalty, Cronos paid CA$40,000 to cover the cost of the OSC investigation.
Cronos will also have to pay for an “independent consultant,” acceptable to the OSC, to review its internal controls.
As part of the settlement, Cronos admitted it failed to file interim financial statements consistent with accepted accounting principles.
“As the industry continues to grow, it is imperative that investors receive accurate information about the financial performance of public cannabis companies to support informed investment decisions in this nascent sector,” Jeff Kehoe, director of enforcement at the OSC, said in a statement.
Kehoe said the settlements hold Cronos and William Hilson, former chief financial officer and chief commercial officer, “accountable.”
According to the OSC news release, while Hilson was Cronos’ CCO in 2019, he was involved in a wholesale transaction in which Cronos improperly recognized CA$3 million in revenue.
“In settling this matter, Hilson admits that he failed to take appropriate steps to address the handling of revenue recognition issues for this transaction by Cronos, and that his conduct was contrary to the public interest,” the OSC said.
The OSC said Hilson is subject to a one-year ban from acting as a director or officer of any public company, and he agreed to make a voluntary payment of CA$50,000 to the OSC and CA$20,000 towards the cost of the investigation.
“The settlement reflects that Hilson reached a timely resolution of the matter, which saved resources for both the OSC and the Capital Markets Tribunal,” the OSC said.
Also on Monday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission charged the Toronto-based cannabis producer and its former chief commercial officer with accounting fraud for the same accounting incidents.
Of note, the SEC said Cronos and Hilson offered to settle the matter “without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings.”
According to the SEC, Cronos and Hilson agreed not to repeat the accounting errors.
Whereas Hilson faces only a one-year ban in Ontario, the SEC’s sanction on Hilson is a more severe three-year officer and director ban.
The OCS refused to explain the discrepancy to MJBizDaily.
Hilson will also be suspended from practicing before the SEC as an accountant for at least three years.
The SEC said it decided not to fine Hilson because he consented to pay CA$70,000 to the OSC.
In its own statement, Cronos said that, “as a result of the SEC settlement, the company will be unable to rely on the private offering exemptions provided by Regulations A and D under the Securities Act for a period of five years; lose its status as a well-known seasoned issuer for a period of three years; and be unable to rely on the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for a period of three years.”

4) Triple H
2006 Royal Rumble Match
Triple H had some tough luck at the 2006 Royal Rumble, as he was forced to enter the match first after drawing the unlucky number 1.
Triple H would eliminate 5 other superstars and would remain in the match for over an hour (1:00:16). Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to win him the match as he was eliminated in the 28 spot by the eventual winner Rey Mysterio.
Don’t feel too bad for Triple H… He would end up getting a WWE title shot anyways. Triple H won the Road to WrestleMania tournament by last defeating Rob Van Dam and the Big Show.
Triple H would go on to face John Cena at Wrestlemania 22 for the WWE Championship in the main event. He lost the match via submission.

Social Media Is Not Real Life — “Is social media changing the life we are supposed to have?”
If you had never heard of Essena O’Neill before, you would have probably found her all over the press headlines this past last week. The first thought that popped up in my mind was: damn, this girl is either mad or a media genius. Becoming a celebrity through social media, she then turned out against social media saying it destroyed her life and made her more miserable than ever before. She now believes that nothing from social media benefits reality, it only promotes a fake life through the screen. Whether this is just a different twist of the same dance and this girl has found a better way to feed her ego, or there really is an invisible hand behind this movement and we will all benefit from this social commentary, her writing is surprisingly thoughtful and mature. I even questioned if they were all from a 19-year-old girl’s brain. Who is real? What is fake? Is it wrong to be paid to promote brands like she did before? Is it really unnecessary to share life through social media? I don’t agree and she even covered the benefits we have gained from social media especially connecting to people. However, this is not the topic I’m going to talk in this post, but the question left to myself – Is social media changing the life we are supposed to have?.
I think it’s a generalisation to call this issue “social media” as it’s been cast upon for several generations, radio, TV, newspaper etc. Let’s say “social networking media” which is more accurate for the issue Essena and we here are concerned with. We were born into this social networking addicted generation. I do have times where I get annoyed with myself and others who are overly addicted to networking websites such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat. It’s never enough. The interaction between people has changed since we became addicted to getting more “likes” and therefore become “popular” on social networking platforms rather than the REAL APPRECIATION between friends and family. Feeling sad when getting less “likes” and checking networking websites all the time (not because you seriously care about your friends so much that you want to know what’s up with them every single hour) is more likely because you have gotten addicted to the action of “checking” itself. Moreover, 24-hour live reporting about your trip, the food and fun you’re having is all in all to feed who you think cares about what you’re doing or to attract more attention to yourself. This is sacrificing the enjoyment of the actual moment you’re sharing. Is social media bad? Yes, in this situation your real life is more or less being destroying by the “screen”.
We’re all SOLO DANCERS in this social media-land and we all expect to get more attention from the dance we’re creating. As human beings we all want to be important and relevant which is after all human nature, whether we are using media or not. However, it’s your choice to make your life better and more meaningful through the screen OR poison yourself into it. Just like I always say – here is a knife, it’s your decision to use it to be a murderer, a chef or a surgeon. Life is not always black and white, it’s something called “BALANCE”.

It is stranger still,” he writes, “to see how many ruins of the old mythology: how many fragments of obsolete legend and observance: have been incorporated into the worship of Christian altars here; and how, in numberless respects, the false faith and the true are fused into a monstrous union” (151). By displacing this link between old and new traditions onto Italy’s Catholicism, Dickens at once distances himself and England from participation in such religious superstition. His discomfort with this fusion of ancient and (relatively) modern religion cannot, however, be limited to the Catholicism encountered on his European travels.
To fritter away the time in gewgaws which shall raise up the pale ghosts of hopes of early years. ’” (64). Like the unsavory Alderman Cute of The Chimes, who is forever “putting down” simple pleasures as extravagances, the monk is a force to be resisted, and the secular (or even somewhat pagan)14 sisters rightly succeed in thwarting his influence. Nevertheless, this monk, though he offers the sisters bad advice, is not necessarily a hypocrite. Although Dickens allows this possibility to remain open (at one point in the story, the monk’s lips “mov[e] as if in prayer” [NN 61, emphasis mine]), the narrator offers no clear indication that his religious counsel is motivated by self-interest or nefarious design.
455–56). This rationale is in keeping with Dickens’s oft-remarked secularized social gospel;6 it is important that he does not stress Unitarianism’s doctrinal superiority to Anglicanism. In fact, it may have been Unitarianism’s lack of specific doctrine that appealed to Dickens. 8 Although not all traditions of the Catholic Church appalled Dickens, even his uneasy tolerance for some damned them with faint praise. For instance, in remarking upon the prayer candles lit in the cathedral at Avignon, Dickens writes, Though votive offerings were not unknown in Pagan Temples, and are evidently among the many compromises made between the false religion and the true, when the true was in its infancy, I could wish that all the other compromises were as harmless.

The attorney for a woman accused in the death of a toddler pleaded to allow additional testimony on the psychological state of his client at an upcoming hearing.
Jacob Amaru asked that a doctor who treated his client, Keshawna Higgins, be allowed to talk about the woman at an upcoming hearing. Higgins was accused of first-degree murder and child abuse in 2012.
Keshawna was the aunt of one-year-old Za'Naya Flores and helped out as a caretaker for the child. The baby’s mother, Kiyana Higgins, and grandmother, Clara Huyghue, were accused of starving to death the child.
At the hearing on Tuesday, Judge Deborah Bernini said she would not allow testimony from the doctor at the hearing, but would instead schedule a hearing to discuss Amaru’s motion to include the testimony.
Amaru argued successfully in previous hearings to have Keshawna Higgis tried separately from the other defendants.
He also has argued at previous hearings that the child’s mother, Kiyana Higgins, and not his client who bore the responsibility for the death.
Keshawna Higgins is scheduled for trial in March.

While it's nearly to impossible to tell in advance which internet video clips are going to become viral sensations, there are some commonalities among them. A big one is personal enthusiasm. There's something wonderful about a person fighting to enjoy what they're doing even if, on paper, it doesn't make much sense. Take a look at this Buenas Buenas TikTok to know exactly what I'm talking about.
What is the "Here Comes the Boy" TikTok video?
The short video itself is a very simple one. In it, we see a very nice cat quietly walk up to the TikToker as they record the gentle little creature. The person behind the camera simply half-sings, half speaks: "Here Comes the Boooo-ooy" with a combination of texts and emojis to accentuate their affection for the feline.
It's just a wholesome and inexplicably funny declaration of love for the cat by @june_banoon, and it resonated with folks all over the web. If you haven't seen it yet, take a gander for yourself to see what all of the fuss is about:
Does it do anything for you? Well, even if it doesn't, there are millions of people who like the clip who are enamored with the little kitty and @june_banoon's reaction to the little guy.
And in typical TikTok fashion, there are tons of folks who are showcasing their affection by taking the audio of this human greeting the cat and either duetting it or recording their own videos using the audio.
Just take a listen at this one below and tell me Prom Kings all over America aren't going to be using this audio when they make their grand entrance.
The applications for this instant e-classic are limitless. Bar mitzvahs! When a baby boy is born! A Culture Club reunion when the OG singer of the group approaches the stage! Come on. I mean, it's perfect.
The remixed version featuring the sleepy synth and dreamy piano arrangement has spawned throngs of pet appreciation posts that are populating TikTok.
A lot of people are using the short track to give love to other cats as well.
Others are using it to give a shout-out to original artwork that shows the wonderful relationship between a mother and her enthusiastic young son.
And others are using it as a means of showing off the love they have for someone they're crushing on hardcore, like this green-eyed handsome man.
The audio collaboration from @june_baboon, @alexfromsf, and @felixgabrielmusic has made its way onto Twitter as well, with gamers, K-Pop stans, and all sorts of other fandoms using the track. I think Jess Day would be proud to know that so many people have an affinity for injecting song into every part of their lives, even if it's just greeting neighborhood cats.

By John FawWiih a Funeral Sermon on the same Occasion. By William Crabtree, 8vo. Keith. 1780.
Mr. Fawcet's poetical talents have been already hinted at on a former publication *. In whatever eftimation his poetry may be held, which, however, does not often sink below mediocrity, his piety and benevolence will at least entitle him to respect. Art. 31. A SeleЕtion of Hebrew Poems, translated by John Far

In this Selection we meet with some of the most poetical passages of the Old Testament translated into very tolerable Englith verse. Should, however, the ingenious Translator fail of giving that full satisfaction which some Readers may expect from him, let it be remembered, his atrempt is of that kind which has baffled many writers, even of considerable reputation. Art. 32. America, a Poem. By John Farrer, of Queen's
College. Oxford. 4to, Evans, 1780. America is here considered as a froward child, quarrelling with an indulgent and affectionate parent. Mr. Farrer prophesies, that she will be compelled to return to her duty and allegiance, which is apparently a laboured performance, is not without some marks of ingenuity. Art. 33. The Temptation, or Satan in the Country. A Poem.
I s. 6 d. Cadell. 1781. Satan tempts a lady in the country to pass off a bad shilling at cards. The poem is worthy of its subject, and the bad fhilling is the full worth of the poem.

Stockdale, It was easy to foresee, that the various paragraphs, relative to the pretended amours of a young prince, so industriously diffeminated, for some months past, in the newspapers, would, in due season, produce a plenieous crop of fruit, in the more ample forms of pamphlets, poems, and books of New Memoirs, and Secret History.

This Naturalift has spared no pains in collecting almost every thing that has been written upon this curious question in ornithologynamely, Whether certain birds during particular seasons migrate or remain in a torpid state, hidden in hollow trees, old buildings, sandbanks, &c. ? He very ftourly maintains the former opinion.

The business of this classical Oration is to controvert the pofition, that ridicule is of itself a su fäcient test of truth. As an academical exercise, it possesses considerable merit, and does credit to the Writer's ingenuity. We think, however, it is scarcely interesting enough, either from the novelty or importance of the argument, to warrant publication. The poem which is subjoined to this performance, intitled Mola Juventutis Restauratrix, has both humour and elegance : witness the following lines:

The method of hinting at public characters, or memorable inci. dents in the lives of eminent persons, by apt quotations from eminent

Therefore I beg you, gentlemen, look well to yourselves; for, in all probability, you may live some months longer yet.'

Dr. Ibbetson, Archdeacon of St. Alban's, is vindicated, in this Letter, from the odium which hath been thrown upon his character, from the countenance which he gave to the intolerant proceedings of the Proteftant Association. This letter bears evident marks of the Doctor's own pen. Besides, we apprehend, no one but himself would have taken up his cause so warmly.

Anthem, which is one of the nation’s largest health insurers, has filed a lawsuit accusing Insys Therapeutics of engaging in a “creative, illegal, and fraudulent” scheme to obtain reimbursement for its Subsys painkiller, adding a new layer of legal challenges for the beleaguered drug maker.
In its lawsuit, which was filed on Wednesday in federal court in Arizona, Anthem accused the company of bribing doctors with “sham” speaker fees to write prescriptions for unapproved uses for its drug, which contains fentanyl and carries a high risk of dependency. We asked Insys for comment and will update you accordingly.
Subsys was approved only for treating breakthrough cancer pain, but Insys has been accused by federal and state authorities of widening the market for its drug by illegally inducing doctors to prescribe the pill for other sorts of pain. This is known as “off-label” prescribing, which doctors are permitted to do.
It is a disgusting industry. I personally think it has to start with us. We have to be more proactive with our own health. Exercise, eating home grown foods and so on. Also don’t buy into all these new “healthier” food trends that are over priced. Grow it! I know so many that do because of where I live and live very long lives. They also never go to the Dr. I understand there are times you need to go but so many of the reasons most go could have been prevented. Also do your own research. Just because a Dr says you need it doesn’t mean you do. Last thing is WATER and you don’t have to buy it either.

This paper reports comparative evaluations of conventional voice activity detection (VAD) methods in reverberant environments. Both conventional and standard (G.729) methods are discussed. In general, these methods work well under clean conditions, but their performance is drastically affected by reverberation. Preliminary comparative evaluations showed that the false acceptance rate (FAR) is significantly increased due to the false rejection rate (FRR) being moderately increased by reverberation. We therefore developed a method using MTF-based power envelope restoration to improve the robustness of VAD in reverberant environments. This restoration method can blindly restore the power envelope of reverberant speech based on the MTF concept. The proposed method consists of an MTF-based restoration method as the front end and a conventional VAD method as the final decision. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method is superior to conventional methods with regard to robustness and providing accurate VAD (reducing both FAR and FRR) in reverberant environments.

text: The women’s basketball team competed in the first round of the MCC Tournament last Tuesday as they traveled to Huntington University. Although the fifth seeded Pilots put up a hard fight, they could not keep up with the offense of the fourth seeded Forresters. Huntington eventually downed Bethel by a score of 65-53. Although the Lady Pilots’ three standout seniors were able to put up 35 of Bethel’s 53 points, it was not enough to keep up with Huntington, who had four of their five starters put up double digit scoring. Overall, it was a tough night for the Lady Pilots who were unable to get in any kind of rhythm. They shot under 30% from the field and under 60% from the charity stripe. Although they kept hanging around and threatened to take control, the Forresters eventually pulled away under three minutes to go. Mandy Yoder had another great game for the Pilots and continued to lead the team with not only 13 points, but five assists as well. Heather Seyfred had a tough night as she went 3-15 from the three point line, but still claimed 13 points. Bekah Basinger also chipped in nine points. In addition, Sarah Clark came off the bench, giving the Lady Pilots a huge spark. She collected 11 points on the night and four rebounds. This now gives the Lady Pilots an overall record of 17-14. They will now await and possibly compete in the NCCAA Tournament due to their above .500 record.

The deal consists of an investment of about US$500 million in newly issued equity capital of Lazada and acquisition of shares from certain shareholders, for a total investment of about US$1 billion, said Bernama in a news report.
The transaction is expected to help brands and distributors around the world that already do business on Alibaba’s platform, as well as local merchants, to access the Southeast Asian consumer market, the company said in a statement.
Lazada currently operates e-commerce platforms in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, which together have a combined population of about 560 million and an estimated Internet user base of 200 million.
Alibaba said that with only 3% of the region’s total retail sales conducted online, Southeast Asia is expected to offer tremendous growth potential to both companies as Internet penetration continues to rise.
Alibaba president Michael Evans said the investment in Lazada gives the group access to a platform with a large and growing consumer base outside of China.
“This investment was consistent with our strategy of connecting brands, distributors and consumers wherever they are and support our ecosystem expansion in Southeast Asia to better serve our customers,” he said.
Lazada chief executive officer Max Bittner said the deal will help Lazada accelerate its goal to provide consumers in Southeast Asia access to the broadest assortment of products.
“Furthermore, leveraging Alibaba’s unique knowhow and technology will allow us to rapidly improve our services and provide an even more effortless shopping and selling experience,” he said.
The agreement entails Alibaba entering into a put-call arrangement with certain Lazada shareholders, giving it the right to purchase their remaining collective stakes in Lazada at fair market value during the 12- to 18-month period after the closing of the transaction.


Webley-Scott 1913 MKI Navy .455 Pistol
Here for your viewing pleasure is my Webley-Scott .455 Model 1913 Mk 1 Navy automatic pistol serial number 1913. The numerous military acceptance, proof and property marks indicate it was placed into service in 1914. I found on-line an interesting article "The .455 Webley & Scott Pistol" (American Rifleman 1964) which has a chart which details both Government Contracts and Private sales deliveries by month/year/serial number. This pistol (serial number 3800) was 1 of 1919 (serial numbers 3691-5609) delivered to the Royal Navy in December 1914. It served through most of WWI.

As the birthplace of tea, China exports leaves to the value of US$1.6bn worldwide, according to trade magazine World Tea News. However, evolving consumer tastes and a desire to sample stronger flavored varieties that are drunk with milk mean China is actually tea’s fastest growing import market, up 98.5% since 2013. For India in particular, China is now the 10th largest tea export destination following lowered tariffs, according to China's own figures. With black teas proving most popular, 2017 saw sales from India grow 29% as Chinese customers imported 9 million kilograms worth.
The UK is also proving an unlikely trade partner, owing to its premium and high-quality cultural associations. Driven by the rise in television shows such as Downton Abbey, dedicated venues have been set up in some Chinese cities to offer an authentic afternoon tea experience. British tea blends are also seen as safer by some consumers, due to the high levels of pesticides found in various well-known Chinese brands.
Whittard of Chelsea even partnered with Alibaba’s Tmall, a Chinese website for buying branded products from around the world, to satisfy consumer thirst. Hosted on Tmall, the company sold more tea on China’s Single’s Day, according to one London paper, than its best-performing British high street store manages in two weeks. Tregothnan are another tea brand who grow their product on English soil and have also become an exporter to China, where the tea drinkers are attracted to its quintessentially English values.
You might think that the UK would be a massive importer of cheese from Europe, especially France, with nothing going in the other direction. But you'd be wrong. Despite importing specialist cheeses from countries such as Germany and Italy, export sales of British cheese climbed 23% to total US$791m in 2017 according to the main UK farming journal. This was due to rising demand for cottage cheese and classic Stilton, among others. Ireland took a fifth of this total while the French themselves bought 14% of the UK's cheese export total.
Driven by the world's enduring love for pizza, sales of British mozzarella in particular are up 14% in volume (according to The Guardian), making noticeable gains in Denmark and Poland. Chinese consumers also demonstrated a particular preference for powdered and grated cheddar to use in ready meals, with this staple cheese commanding 40% of the UK's total cheese exports worldwide. Sold under a wide variety of brands, British cheese exports show that in-demand commodities can provide opportunity for enterprising entrepreneurs. For instance, Wensleydale Creamery attended a trade conference in Dubai and is now embarking on a healthy export drive.
High-quality leather goods are synonymous with Italy. But Albania’s longstanding relationships with various Italian brands have made them a key footwear manufacturer. Leather shoes in particular make up 14% of Albania's total outgoing trade, with more than half of that going to Italy. One Albanian business doing particularly well from this trade is Donianna, who make shoes for Italian designers as well as under their own brand names.
Composed of over one hundred companies nationally, Albanian workers produce more than 1.2 million pairs of shoes per month, with their unique geographical positioning and just-in-time manufacturing process making Albania a prime manufacturing location for European buyers. Albania's location helps, as the goods can be swiftly shipped by sea, road or rail across the continent. Italian firm Adelchi even uses Albania as its global hub to access the US and Canada.
If you spot an industry growing in an unusual place, think of the support that industry might need. For instance, when Qatar’s closest neighbors imposed a trade boycott in June 2017, they lost all access to dairy products among other items. This prompted Baladna Farms, located north of Doha, to import 3000 cows from countries including Australia, Budapest and Germany, thereby kickstarting the Qatari dairy industry. March 2018 saw another 3000 cows join the herd, now 10,000 strong, flown in from California, Arizona and Wisconsin. Once reliant on Saudi Arabia for 90% of their milk-based products, this firm has single-handedly overcome the ban, making Qatar self-sufficient in providing for its 2.7 million citizens.
With the facility now equipped to house double its current number, the owners are looking to export their excess products worldwide, eventually producing 500 tons of milk and yogurt each day and earmarking the farm as an influential future trader. Geopolitical upheaval can provide opportunity to the enterprising entrepreneur, so keep an eye on the news for openings for your business.
With gluten-free diets on the increase globally, as well as vegetarianism, if your business is relevant to global dietary trends, it's well worth looking beyond obvious domestic markets. For instance, Canada exported 40,000 tons of yellow peas, red lentils and chickpeas to the US in 2017, but these weren’t for human consumption – they were sent to be processed in gluten-free pet food. As an emerging, rapidly growing market, dog owners are increasingly concerned over the diets of their precious pooches, considering it with as much care as they do their own.
This has led to a surge in demand for such grain-free staples, which can then be ground into flours or else separated to extract the protein. Across five years, the use of pea ingredients in pet food rose 10% each year in a pattern that is expected to continue – especially given the crop’s attractively low price.
It looks like Canada is set to keep up with this newfound interest as well, with the amount of acres devoted purely to lentils doubling in the last decade. And with demand for pet accessories on the rise globally it's worth keeping up with opportunities outside your home market.
Sometimes a reputation for an abundance of something will be lacking in reality, creating an opportunity for commerce. For instance, American and European wedding venues with publicity material full of beautiful wildlife have had to indulge in some surprising trades to fulfill expectations. And, sometimes this trade will chime with local needs elsewhere – in a bid to reduce deforestation and provide local farmers with a sustainable income, countries across East Africa are exporting butterflies through local breeding programs.
In Tanzania’s East Usambara Mountains, farmers collect butterfly pupae as part of the Amani Butterfly Project. After being classified, the specimens get shipped abroad to clients around the US and Europe for between US$1-$2.50 each. Here they are then used in museums, displays and even special events such as weddings, becoming the latest must-have accessory that keen western romantics are importing from abroad.
In Kenya, a similar conservation program works to reduce the local dependence on exports such as sugar and bananas, as well as suppress the practice of illegal logging. Known as the Kipepeo Butterfly Project, it provides citizens with an alternative source of income as they too harvest pupae, allowing over 800 families to earn a livelihood.
Although DHL Express is unable to transport live animals or pupae, if you get in touch, someone from DHL will be happy to try and accommodate your needs.

Is it possible to over-automate processes in APM?
In the article I explore the possibility of over-automating the APM process and the cause for it.
During a recent visit with a manufacturing client, I toured their facilities management control center. This particular manufacturer’s facilities occupied numerous buildings on quite a large amount of land with all the expected utility and support functions. The central facility monitored the HVAC systems, electricity, water, natural gas, wastewater, compressed air, steam, and virtually every other building and manufacturing utility you can imagine.
It was pointed out that the comprehensive control center had taken more than a decade to evolve to its current state and had cost many millions of dollars of investment to achieve its current level of performance. When explaining the centers operation, the facility lead stated that when they got an alarm they then called maintenance to investigate the alarm and write up a work order if further action was needed.
I asked the question, “Why not just have the inspection work order automatically created in the EAM application?” The response was, “We’d never do that. It takes a human to decide if the alarm is valid or not.” This got me to thinking about whether we ever over-automate certain processes within the APM realm.
The point of predictive- and condition-based maintenance
Enterprises engage in predictive- (PdM) and conditioned-based maintenance (CBM) activities in order to improve the reliability of their physical assets, reduce downtime and maintenance costs, and to maximize the effectiveness of their maintenance work force. Any organization that has adopted a PdM and/or CBM approach most likely has a well-established enterprise asset management (EAM) or computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) solution in place as well.
In order to reduce time lags, avoid clerical/human errors, and to minimize administrative overhead, the trend has been to tie the PdM solution(s) to the EAM solution to automatically generate work orders for service based on detected conditions indicating the need for such activity.
If this is the case, why would an organization that has invested so much time and money in creating a rich and sophisticated monitoring center (like the one discussed above) not take advantage of the ability to further automate its APM processes?
The IoT and analytics will provide a higher level of confidence
I think the answer in the situation above is that people
- Did not fully trust the information they were getting and
- The “if it isn’t broke don’t fix it” mentality so common in manufacturing had taken root.
The first issue probably stems from the fact that while the facility certainly has a lot of information about how the physical plant is operating it tends to be singular in nature, not correlated with adjacent system information and based on a level instead of a rate of change. In other words, the monitoring center is getting an alarm based on a single measurement such as too high a back pressure in a filter unit, or too high a temperature in a bearing.
With that single piece of data as the only source of information, the confidence that there is actually a problem is probably pretty low. This necessitates collecting additional data to make an accurate determination in regard to probable severity of the problem.
As for the second issue, process change generally requires people change and that is something most manufacturers struggle with. In the case of the facility being discussed in this post, the processes they implemented resulted in significant improvements in facilities performance, which had been noticed and rewarded. What was lacking was the culture of continuous improvement.
The IoT will make ever-increasing amounts of equipment performance information available. As systems get upgraded or replaced, the newer devices will be able to provide far more information about not only all of the variables associated with that equipment, but, when correlated with both upstream and downstream equipment variables, a much better picture of the actual situation can be painted. If you then couple that with a powerful analytical tool to forecast when failure is imminent, you are well on the way to optimizing performance.
It is possible to over-automate the APM processes
When you try to automate any process—including an APM process—with insufficient information, the marginal nature of the results will likely breed a lack of confidence. That lack of confidence then dictates manual intervention, which unfortunately becomes productive and gets rewarded, and as those behaviors become entrenched further the movement to increased automation becomes more difficult.
So the better approach is as investments in new manufacturing and facilities equipment are made, ensure that the systems are both data rich and connectable via the IoT. Then invest in capable analytic tools that provide believable results that will develop the confidence in automating your APM processes.

GPs should be able to prescribe poetry workshops or painting lessons as part of arts-on-prescription schemes to improve patients’ health and wellbeing, according to an All-Party Parliamentary Group.
A new report from the group on Arts, Health and Wellbeing argues that the arts can help meet major challenges facing health and social care including ageing, long-term conditions, loneliness and mental health.
It points to an innovative Artlift arts-on-prescription scheme in Gloucestershire and Wiltshire, where GPs refer patients with a wide range of conditions – from chronic pain to stroke to anxiety and depression – to take part in an eight-week course of two-hour sessions led a professional working in poetry, ceramics, drawing, mosaic or painting.
A cost-benefit analysis of Artlift from 2009 to 2012 showed that, after six months of working with an artist, people had 37% less demand for GP appointments and their need for hospital admission dropped by 27%.
Setting reductions in costs to the NHS against the cost of Artlift interventions, there was a net saving of £216 per patient, the report points out.
The All-Party Parliamentary Group recommends that NHS England and the Social Prescribing Network support clinical commissioning groups, NHS provider trusts and local authorities to ‘incorporate arts on prescription into their commissioning plans and to redesign care pathways where appropriate’.
It would also like to see that the education of clinicians includes accredited modules on the evidence base and practical use of the arts for health and wellbeing outcomes.
In the foreword to the report, Lord Howarth of Newport, co-chair for the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Arts, Health and Wellbeing, said: ‘The evidence we present shows how arts-based approaches can help people to stay well, recover faster, manage long-term conditions and experience a better quality of life.’


Cutting Tool Engineering's July 2022 issue will focus on how shops can meet demand for stringent boring operations. Bores must be machined with micron accuracy and maintain critical tolerances in low- and high-volume manufacturing applications. New digital solutions in boring and machine tool systems are set to transform industrial production. To supplement this report online, CTE will address some of these solutions during its Ask The Experts webinar scheduled for 10 a.m. (CDT) on Wednesday, July 20th.

Will A Pellet Stove Shut Off When It Runs Out Of Pellets?
A pellet stove can be turned off either by allowing the stove to run out of pellets, or by pressing the on/off button. In addition, the control panel monitors combustion and will shut the stove down if it detects problems.
What happens if my pellet stove runs out of pellets?
If the pellet stove has run out of fuel, it will take a few minutes for the pellets to be transferred from the hopper to the auger to fill and start delivering pellets to the burn pot. Make sure the auger is not jammed with ash.
why does my pellet stove keep shutting off?My Stove Keeps Shutting Down You may have noticed the common causes for most pellet stove problems by now – a dirty unit, and poor air adjustment which won’t provide enough heat to trip the sensors. Also, your pellets might not being feeding into the auger correctly, due to a worn down or broken part.
can a pellet stove run all day?
But if maintenance is kept up, are pellet stoves just as safe to run unattended, and constantly such as a wood burner.
How long does it take for a pellet stove to shut off?
Usually after you turn off the stove the exhaust fan (chimney) and fan to blow the heat around will continue to run for 30 minutes to make sure the fire is completely gone out and to cool down the stove.
Why does the glass on my pellet stove get dirty so fast?
Airflow. Poor airflow can cause even the best pellets to create a lot of smoke and soot. Many pellet stoves are designed so that the direction of airflow minimizes the amount of grime on the glass, but when vents near the doors become dirty the mechanism stops working, so the vents must be cleaned regularly.
Can you get carbon monoxide from a pellet stove?
Burning a pellet stove will put off carbon monoxide. A properly vented stove will not allow carbon monoxide to get out into the house. However, if there is a faulty vent installation, carbon monoxide could get into your home. Carbon monoxide is a very poisonous gas that can be deadly.
Is it safe to leave a pellet stove on overnight?
American Energy Systems pellet stoves and fireplaces are designed to provide safe, consistent heat with minimal work. That means that you can start your stove and safely leave it unattended overnight, while you run for groceries, or meet friends for dinner.
How do I circulate the heat from my pellet stove in the basement?
A pellet stove installed in your basement does not circulate heat around your house as efficiently as a furnace with an electric fan and dedicated ducts. Cutting a few vents in the floor can certainly help. But you’re still relying on natural convection for heat distribution.
How often should you clean pellet stove?
Compared to a wood burning stove, a PELLET STOVE is easier to clean. It produces little ash so cleaning it shouldn’t be very messy. Depending on how often it is used, it needs to be cleaned every three days or at least once every two weeks. Proper cleaning and maintenance is necessary to keep it from malfunctioning.
How long will a 40 lb bag of wood pellets burn?
A: According to the Pellet Fuels Institute, a 40-lb bag of pellet fuel can provide up to 24 hours of solid heat. A winter’s supply of wood pellets is about 100-150 bags—depending on climatic and lifestyle variations.
Why do I get clinkers in my pellet stove?
When wood is pelletized for use in pellet-burning stoves, those impurities can result in “clinkers.” A clinker is a particle that isn’t burned during the normal combustion process. Clinkers can also form when minerals in the ash fuse together or when dirt is introduced into the combustion chamber.
How much is a 40 lb bag of pellets?
Wood pellets cost an average of $5 per 40-lb bag. Pellet bags can range from $4 to $9.
Can a pellet stove heat an entire house?
Pellet stoves are not designed to heat your entire home, instead they are room/zone heating appliances to provide heat to the immediate area in which they are located.

Stress in middle age may contribute to development of Alzheimer’s disease later in life, according to a Swedish study spanning almost 40 years.
Psychological stress was associated with a 21 percent greater risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, according to a study of 800 Swedish women born between 1914 and 1930 who underwent neuropsychiatric tests periodically between 1968 and 2005. The research, led by Lena Johansson at the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg was published today in the journal BMJ Open.
“This suggests that common psychosocial stressors may have severe and long-standing physiological and psychological consequences,” the authors said in the published paper.
The research points to a potential non-medical approach to preventing some cases of dementia, which afflicts at least 35.6 million people globally, according to the Geneva-based World Health Organization. No drugs on the market have been shown to slow progression of the disease. While more studies are needed to confirm the results, interventions such as stress management and behavioral therapy should be investigated, the authors said.
During the monitoring period, 153 women, about a fifth of the total, developed dementia, diagnosed at the average age of 78. About half the women died, at the average age of 79.
A quarter of the women reported at least one stressor, with mental illness in a family member the most common. The link between psychological stressors and dementia can be explained through a variety of biological mechanisms, such as causing structural and functional damage to the hippocampus, which plays a role in memory and spatial navigation, as well as increasing build-up of beta amyloid plaque and tau protein, typical signs of Alzheimer’s, according to the study’s authors.
“From this study, it is hard to know whether stress contributes directly to the development of dementia, whether it is purely an indicator of another underlying risk in this population of women, or whether the link is due to any entirely different factor,” said Simon Ridley, head of research at Alzheimer’s Research U.K., a Cambridge-based charity.
“An important next step will be to investigate the potential reasons for the observed association between midlife stress and dementia risk.”
The research was funded by organizations including the Swedish Medical Research Council, the Swedish Council for Working Life and Social Research and the U.S. National Institutes on Aging.
