great night good food a little too noisy but music was good
good service and selection of foods good prices on Monday
Outstanding food and great atmosphere! Tried it once and now I go back almost every week.
Great as usual
The Monday night special is great. You pay your bill with cash and get your food 1/2 off. Great deal. Their Chicken Pot pie and Shepherd pie is very good. If you like it spicy the Chicken Murphy has a kick. Fun bar.
Had a great time at my favorite place. Excellent bartenders and server!
PJ Sweeney's has delicious food with large portions for the main entree. Salad did not come with any of the three entrees we ordered...seems like it is extra $s if you want a salad. We choose to get one appetizer (mozz. sticks) and two desserts. So we were "full" but the dinner check was "big". The atmosphere was "lively" and the service was good.
The food was very good, but the service was a disaster.
Good Experience! Will be back. Nice people. Excellent staff and management.
My husband and I went here for lunch. Our server Victor was amazing and very helpful. We had the Guiness onion soup and the Balarney rolls, awesome! So good! Wow! Plus we had sandwiches which were also good! We shared the cheesecake, so light and creamy! Yum-o! We will definitely be back! Thank you Chef and Victor!
Monday is buy 1 dinner & get 1 free if you pay cash great deal & food love the chicken pot pie & shepherd pie good draft beer selections
Fun band. Food fair.
Good time. Irish music, good food
I'll start out by saying the service was wonderful. We had a great waiter! The food on the other hand, was actually bad. My turkey dip was the driest, most bland sandwich I have ever eaten. My friend ordered the stroganoff and it was so bad that he took two bites and left the rest over. We had nachos as an appetizer and although decent, more than 50% of the chips had nothing on them. Despite the great service, I would never go back.
Great food, great beers on tap! We loved the place. The open faced reuben sandwich was one of the best I've had at a restaurant! All the others in our party loved their food too. Only thing I'd suggest is to somehow lower the volume of the band playing. On Sunday nights, which is when we were there, the music from the band is overpowering. We were in a separate dining room from the bar area where the band was and we had a hard time hearing each other speak. It would have been perfect if the music was about 30 dB lower. But I will say the band was very good!
Food was great, as usual. My only complaint was that the music was TOO LOUD! It was at a volume of a club twice the size. I am all for loud music, it's great in the right setting. But I've been there twice, where I couldn't hear anyone talking. Even if the live music/dj-ing was turned down a little bit, it would make for a much better atmosphere.
Very disappointed. The first time we went there it was fine. The second, and last time, it was a disaster. We got the wrong food. Food was not hot. VERY noisy.
Service was terrible. Not crowded yet servicer would disappear for long periods of time. Generous portion size. Tasty potato leek soup.
Food is amazing. They definitely don't cut corners.
Great place to hang out. Had a good time. Great service.
Great food, service and music! I will go back again.
Nice clean place with excellent service. Nice menu selection. The food was good.
Wasn't happy with the portion being it was half price night. Looking for another location for specials. Service wasn't great. I booked on open table a night prior never received my credit.
Food and service were awesome!
Service is very nice. Food is good pub food. A very comfortable place.
We are repeat customers & have never had a bad experience. The food is always good & Monday night 1/2 price menu is a great value. We brought friends this past Monday for their first visit & they loved it!
Waitress was very nice and attentive. Ordered a burger medium well, it arrived looking like hockey puck, burnt and crisp on the outside, dry on the inside as if it had been deep fried. Informed waitress this was unacceptable she said they have a similar complaint earlier in the week and that she would inform the manager, she offers to buy us desert which neither of us eat.
What should have happened is the manager should have come over to address the problem and offer to remove the burger from the bill or offer a cocktail for the inconvenience, did not happen.
Again the waitress was very nice however I will not be going here again as the management obviously does not understand the hospitality business.
'Really good Irish food. We had a party of 5 for dinner. Our waitress, Linda, recommended the Chicken Pot Pie and she was right. It was great with a flaky top crust. Also was the Shepard's Pie and the Fish'n'Chips. I tasted the Chicken Pot Pie and can't wait to go back to get that. Their house Sauvignon Blanc was delicious. Good place to go.
Our waiter forgot to order our appetizer so we never got that. He was not very attentive. I ordered the penne vodka with shrimp. The shrimp tasted like it was frozen and had been thawed and it just tasted old. They left the tails on the shrimp and the type of bowl they gave me, every time I tried to cut the tails off the dish tipped over. This was our second visit and I don't know that we'll be back. Very disappointing.
It was the third time I was there and the food was great both times. I love Irish cuisine, but that is certainly not all that there is. We were in a corner booth this time with 5 people. Are waitress was great! No complaints here. The first time were ate in the dining room, the second time was at the bar and this time was in the bar area but at a nice big booth. Great time.
Went with 8 other family members. Children included. Food was great,service was excellent,reservations were made ahead so no waiting. This was our 3 time here. Every time was excellent. And verity is great,something for everyone..
Very loud on Sunday's. A little pricey for the portions.
Soup was cold & needed to be heated. Corned beef was like rubber. The overall menu has some nice choices. I'll give this place one more try to redeem itself.
Excellent food. Good size portions and served very hot. Friday night very busy with live music. A bit loud but good.
I was impressed with the atmosphere here and all the meals were very plentiful.
It has a large bar and and plenty of appetizers to pick from. I will definely
Thought we'd give the Irish a try. Right off the bat, it's very noisy. Not letting this deter us
I tried one of their signature drinks which the waitress suggested. Excellent. He had shepherds pie which he completely finished. My corned beef and cabbage, which
I always LOVE! Tasted as if it had been left in the water too long, ok, but not great. Service
was very good and friendly
Place was busy but with my open table res. not a problem getting seated, the food was great and the service was very good also a suprise on a monday night was half off all food s. I'll be back with more friends
PJ's is a loud, local place where the food is good. I would recommend it for a casual supper.

At least four Southern California residents have been displaced after a mudslide plowed through an apartment complex on Christmas Day.
No one in the Oceanside housing complex was injured, on-duty battalion Chief Greg DeAvila said. He added that a broken water line along with the large amount of rain that fell on Saturday had caused the mudslide.
Authorities said the slide occurred at around 5 a.m., according to Fox 5 San Diego. When emergency personnel arrived at the scene, they found a 75-feet long, 12-feet wide mudslide behind the complex.
Oceanside battalion Chief Pete Lawrence said mud had pushed through the lower housing units, damaging the structure and appliances in the home.
Lawrence said that the Red Cross was helping displaced residents with temporary housing. He added that the apartment management company was going to help find long-term housing for the residents.
The town’s building department determined the complex unsafe to live.

US President Donald Trump had earlier endorsed her candidacy, which had been blocked by former President Donald Trump.
The US delegate to the WTO said that he was “eager” to work with Okonjo-Iweala.
“The United States is committed to working closely with Director-General Okonjo-Iweala and she can count on the United States to be a constructive partner,” said Charge d’Affaires David Bisbee.
Biden’s decision to support the Nigerian women was part of his agenda to choose cooperative approaches to international issues.

Connection lies at the heart of all romantic partnerships. However, over time we may fall into habits that slowly erode the affection, respect, and empathy we once had. When we neglect the relationship, communication breaks down, contempt grows, and we gradually drift apart.
The Gottman method is a couples therapy modality developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, renowned psychologists in the mental health field. Known for its evidence-based, scientific approach to therapy, the Gottman method was developed using data collected from over 40 years of extensive research. In 1996, the Gottmans went on to open the Gottman Institute, a pivotal resource for clinical professionals and couples seeking an evidence-based approach to couples counseling.
John Gottman is recognized for the research he conducted at his “Love Lab” at the University of Washington in 1986. Based on key observations he made of a couple’s interactions, he was able to predict with 90 percent accuracy whether they would go on to divorce or remain married. This was when he developed the “The Sound Relationship House” framework.
The Gottman method provides couples with practical, evidence-based interventions in easy-to-follow steps to nurture a healthier relationship. The Sound Relationship House is a symbolic example of the components of a strong, healthy relationship that contains seven pillars:
The Gottman method also identifies the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse—criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling.  For example, when contempt seeps into a relationship, behaviors such as eye-rolling, scoffing, or looking down at your partner have the potential to erode the bond between you. A Gottman-trained therapist helps you recognize these communication patterns and replace them with healthier strategies.
After leaving the first session, your therapist will provide you with on-the-spot tools and techniques that you can then practice at home. Through developing the layers of the Sound Relationship House, couples will nurture friendship, maintain a positive perspective, manage conflict by avoiding the Four Horsemen, honor each other’s life dreams, and create meaning within their relationship.
The research and efficacy of the Gottman method of couples counseling is effective for every kind of monogamous couple and every sexual orientation. Gottman method counseling provides practical strategies to help couples strengthen their relationship, whether they want to prepare for marriage, improve communication, reduce conflict, overcome trust issues—such as infidelity or addiction—, navigate emotional and sexual intimacy concerns, or address other challenging life transitions. Couples who engage in the Gottman method will develop skills that not only improve their relationship, but also benefit them in other areas of life such as communication, conflict resolution, and emotion regulation.
The length and frequency of treatment will be determined collaboratively between the therapist and the couple. Specific interventions and goals will be selected and utilized from each layer of the Sound Relationship House framework to build the relationship that clients long for.
Examples of some commonly-utilized Gottman method marriage therapy interventions include:
Additionally, the Trust Revival method is used to help couples recover from infidelity and betrayal. These steps include atonement, attunement, and attachment. Utilizing the Trust Revival method after a betrayal will help couples stabilize their relationship. These interventions allow you to heal conflict in the moment.
There are numerous completed studies based on John Gottman’s research about predicting whether or not a couple will divorce.  Further, his development of the Gottman Method ensures that even if a couple has a high probability of divorce, they have an opportunity to mend their relationship. By following the steps that a Gottman-trained therapist pinpoints for them, couples can decrease the negative behaviors and patterns that predict divorce and replace them with habits that promote connection.”
As Gottman-trained therapists, we appreciate that the qualities that constitute a healthy relationship are now grounded in science. The Gottman method offers concrete, evidence-based treatment that couples can learn in therapy and then practice at home. Provided they put in the work, they will see results. In couples therapy, we typically combine the Gottman method with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), another evidence-based modality that focuses on strengthening the emotional connection between partners. These two modalities complement each other well and provide couples with everything they need to thrive.
At Select Counseling, we strive to promote the most scientifically proven modalities and approaches to couples therapy. Using the concept of the Sound Relationship House, the Gottman approach defines every aspect of a healthy relationship along with an easy road map to follow.
Because your relationship with your partner is so valuable, finding a therapist with the right skills and training is an important investment in your future happiness. To find out more about Gottman Method couples therapy online with Select Counseling, please contact us.

Whilst we can expect Meta to introduce at least three new headsets by the end of 2024, the Cambria headset is to release this September, marking their next steps towards the future of VR and AR in workspaces, hangouts and communal environments.
We take a look at the Project Cambria virtual reality headset, perhaps to be the most powerful headset to date, which includes facial recognition and tools for eye-tracking to help portray the users’ real-life expressions into their virtual avatars.
Cambria will be compatible with a wide range of web tools and Quest apps which will allow wearers to easily send emails or write code while wearing the device. Its tools have been compared similarly to that of Meta’s Chromebook. However subtle differences are shown by Cambria’s brand new mixed-reality feature to give a better filtered high-resolution view of the user’s surroundings through the set’s outer lenses.
This seems fit for a work device, as it has been compared to internally as a “laptop for the face.” Meta’s ambitions are clear as they make it clear that Project Cambria is “not a Quest 2 replacement, or a Quest 3.” This release is amongst the other headsets to arrive after Cambria which include ‘Funston’, new Quest VR headsets, and Meta’s first pair of AR glasses.
“Project Cambria will be a high-end device at a higher price point, because it’s going to be packed with all the latest advanced technologies, including improved social presence, colour Passthrough, pancake optics, and a lot more.”
Project Cambria, due to its bigger power source, is expected weigh slightly more than the Quest headsets and worth around $799 USD, much more than Quest’s under $400 cost. This is according to ‘The Information‘ sources.

Balestier, Albirex win big at FAS Nite
Balestier Khalsa endured a long, hard Great Eastern-Hyundai S.League season, eventually finishing third from bottom.
But at last night's Football Association of Singapore (FAS) Nite at Marina Bay Sands, two young Tigers trumped more illustrious rivals to bag two awards.
First, 23-year-old midfielder Huzaifah Aziz won the Goal of the Year award with his stunning volley against Garena Young Lions on Sept 20, beating three players from quadruple champions Albirex Niigata.
Then, Hazzuwan Halim was announced as the Young Player of the Year.
The midfielder-turned-striker, also 23, pipped hot favourite Irfan Fandi of Home United, who had a creditable season at S.League title contenders Home United, while also establishing himself in the first XI of the national team.
Hazzuwan was shocked at winning the accolade.
"Maybe it's just my luck this year," he said later, with a sheepish smile. "I'm still surprised. I really didn't expect this."
Balestier coach Marko Kraljevic was understandably proud of his two charges.
Said the German-born Croat: "I'm very happy for these two young boys. Both of them have very good attitude and they work very hard, and I think they are deserving winners.
"Huzaifah worked very hard and did very well when I moved him from the wing to centre midfield in the second half of the season.
"And Hazzuwan has a winning mentality."
Both players, who will stay with Balestier next season, paid tribute to Kraljevic for his role in their development.
"Playing as a striker is a good challenge and a hard one, too," said Hazzuwan, who rose from Balestier's Prime League (Under-21 reserve) squad.
"But if coach Marko believes in me, I'll go for it."
Added Huzaifah: "I was a bit surprised coach Marko saw the potential for me to play as a central midfielder.
"He has definitely played a big part in the changes I have gone through."
Albirex, meanwhile, claimed three of the biggest awards.
Kazuaki Yoshinaga won the Coach of the Year Award, while playmaker Kento Nagasaki was named the Player of the Year.
Their striker Tsubasa Sano also won the Golden Boot Award for being the S.League's top scorer with 26 goals.
In addition to handing out awards for the recently concluded S.League season, the FAS also celebrated its 125th anniversary.
Former FAS presidents such as John Koh and Ho Peng Kee were in attendance, although Zainudin Nordin was absent. - SAZALI ABDUL AZIZ

Future isn't sweating in the least that his ex Ciara is suing him for $15 million because he believes he has a great defense against her claims. The pop singer slapped her rapper ex with a slander and libel suit on Tuesday, claiming he bashed her in the media and on Twitter simply to promote his album.
Now, according to TMZ, Future is calling bulls**t on the lawsuit, claiming Ciara has exploited their breakup for her professional gain as well. Example? Her single "I Bet," which is clearly about their breakup.
"You know that it hurts your pride but you thought the grass was greener on the other side / I bet you start loving me as soon as I start loving someone else / Somebody better than you,” are just some of the lyrics he feels prove his point.
Of course, while the meaning behind the lyrics may be clear to Future (and millions of fans), proving it in court is a totally different thing. Ciara's point will undoubtedly be easier to prove. But the singer can't claim her victory in court until she can officially serve her ex with the lawsuit — TMZ reports that a process server hasn't been able to tag the EVOL rapper with papers yet.

If you had it to do all over again, what would you change about your college experience? Would you pursue a different major? Go to a different school? Start out at a community college, then transfer?
These questions are at the heart of a recent report from Gallup and the Strada Education Network. On Second Thought: U.S. Adults Reflect on Their Education Decisions is the first of a three-year series of Education Consumer Pulse reports Gallup and Strada plan to issue that deal with people’s perceptions of their education paths.
Some high-level findings from the report (which you can download here):
- Most would change something about their experience. Given the chance to do it all over again, 51 percent of Americans would change at least one of their significant education decisions. Thirty-six percent would choose a different major, 28 percent would choose a different institution and 12 percent would choose a different degree.
- For-profit grads more likely to have regrets. Respondents who attended a for-profit institution at the sub-baccalaureate level or who attended a private, nonprofit institution at the two-year level are more likely to regret their decisions than those who earned credentials from other institutions.
- Older students more positive. People who were 30 or older when they received their bachelor’s degree tended to be more positive about their education choices than do those who completed at a younger age.
- STEM grads are most satisfied. Students who earned degrees in the STEM fields — science, technology, engineering or math — are the
least likely to report they would make different education decisions.
- Overall, strong satisfaction. Perhaps the most important takeaway for educators is the finding that suggests higher education is still valued and seen as a key for success. More than four out of five U.S. adults who completed a credential or a degree either agree or strongly
agree that they received a high-quality education. Even those adults who started a degree but did not finish it consider their experiences to have
been high quality.
Gallup and Strada see this research initiative as filling an information gap. “While plenty of data are already collected about postsecondary education,” they write in the report, “there has not yet been a comprehensive look at student and graduate experiences and how those experiences shaped their lives.” Through the organizations’ new research platform, however, the researchers “aim to listen to education consumers at all levels of educational attainment.”
As a result, postsecondary leaders, policymakers and employers will be able to better understand the critical consumer insights and experiences that shape the many complex issues facing postsecondary education today a comprehensive look at student and graduate experiences and how those experiences shaped their lives.
As for me, I don’t regret my major (journalism) nor my choice of institution, but I wish I had paid more attention in some classes, and I wish I had dropped that business law course when I had the chance.

Today is Wednesday the 27 October, in the 30th week of Ordinary time.
Bless the Lord, my soul, who leads me into life. The most important thing for me to do now, as I enter into prayer, is to let go for a moment, to let go of my own concerns, my own worries and fears and reluctance, and let myself be led by God, trusting that God, who loves me, will lead me into life.
Today’s reading is from the Gospel of Luke.
Jesus went through one town and village after another, teaching as he made his way to Jerusalem. Someone asked him, ‘Lord, will only a few be saved?’ He said to them, ‘Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able. When once the owner of the house has got up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, “Lord, open to us”, then in reply he will say to you, “I do not know where you come from.” Then you will begin to say, “We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.” But he will say, “I do not know where you come from; go away from me, all you evildoers!” There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrown out. Then people will come from east and west, from north and south, and will eat in the kingdom of God. Indeed, some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last.’
“Strive to enter through the narrow door.” How do you notice yourself responding to this instruction from Jesus? Perhaps you feel pressured by it…or anxious. Or maybe you feel it’s clear, providing you with direction…
Passages like today’s can sometimes leave us feeling a little anxious or fearful about “not making the cut”, particularly with the mention of ‘weeping and gnashing of teeth’. If this is something that resonates with you, can you take a moment to just focus on Jesus himself and talk to him about it as you would to a friend?
As you listen to the passage again, notice what stays with you most…
Recognising today’s passage as a difficult one, what would you most like to bring into conversation with God as this prayer time comes to a close?
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

It took me a couple of days to digest what I saw on Sunday afternoon in Cincinnati’s Paul Brown Stadium. I’m still not exactly sure what the Baltimore Raven’s offensive gameplan was, or what Joe Flacco saw when he looked downfield on 70% of his passes, but all I know, is that what happened on Sunday, was an animal that can not rear it’s ugly head again.
First of, let me give a TON of credit to the Raven defense. For the second week in a row, the defense played a brilliant game, even after constantly being put in horrible situations by an offense that reminded me of that dreadful 9-7 game against the San Francisco 49ers during the 2007 season. Once again, Ray Lewis, the heart and soul of this team, led an attack that constantly put pressure on Carson Palmer, and never allowed Cedric Benson, Chad Johnson (not calling him OC), or Terrell Owens to take over the game. And to be quite honest, had it not been for two of the most horrendous calls I have seen NFL officials make on a football field, maybe, just maybe, the defense pulls out a win the offense was destined to give away. But alas, and maybe even fortunately for the Ravens, the Bengals did just enough to win the game 15-10. Had the Ravens been able to win this game, with as bad as they played, maybe the heat wouldn’t be on them so much. Maybe the fans would use a line from a bygone era of Raven football, “as long as we win, I don’t care what it looks like.” Which is tru in some sense. I personally would always take an ugly win over a pretty loss…ALWAYS. However, an ugly win Sunday would have masked the fact that even at 2-0, this team would have a ton of question marks concerning this offense. What being 1-1 does, is allows everyone to speak the truth. “I’ll take it, two smash mouth games on the road against a pair of top 5 defenses in their respective home openers, 1-1 isn’t anything to be ashamed oh…However, the offense needs to get better in a hurry.”
And let’s look at it this way, the Cincinnati Bengals are a good football team. Some have said they will repeat as this year’s AFC North Champions. Their defense under coordinator Mike Zimmer is a top five defense, and they have one of the most talented secondary’s in football. And more importantly, they were coming off a B-slapping of an opening game loss in New England, in their home opener. And let’s not forget that during the first few weeks of an NFL season, the defense is always a little ahead of the offenses. The loss wasn’t surprising.
What was surprising was just how bad the Ravens’ offense looked. Let us count the ways…:
— Joe Cool’s four picks can never happen again on a team that fashions itself as a Super Bowl contender. Especially considering that all four were thrown right to Bengal defenders. There was no amazing Ed Reed-like catch on any of them. But for all those calling for Marc Bulger to start, you don’t know football. You don’t pull your third year franchise starting quarterback after one bad road game early in the season. Joe will be fine. If he winds up throwing for 3,900 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 13 picks, and the Ravens win 12 games, his Week 2 performance against the Bengals will be forgotten.
— The offensive line needs to find it’s 2008-2009 pass blocking form. Matt Birk and Marshall Yanda were terrible, and Chris Chester wasn’t that much better. I still think that first hit of the year in New York–which should have been a 15 yard penalty for a helmet to helmet hit on the quarterback by the Jet defender–may have had a short term impact on Flacco in that for the first time in his career, happy feet and confusion may have set in. Has to get better.
— RUN THE BALL! I agree all the way with Drew, that Cam Cameron has to keep his receiving corps happy. Boldin, Mason, and Housh, have to all feel appreciated in the offense. But you can do that, and still do what your football team does best…run Ray Rice. The playcalling has to get better. As the Vikings showed last year, as long as you’re winning, the receivers will be happy, the running back will get his touches, and all with be well. DON’T GIVE UP ON THE RUNNING GAME MIDWAY THROUGH THE THIRD QUARTER. Just my opinion.
— T.J. Houshmanzadeh. Look, I like the addition of Housh, and think as the season goes on and he becomes more involved in, and learns the offense, he is going to be a weapon, especially on third down. But for now, he just needs to make the catches an NFL receiver is supposed to make. Especially a 9 year vet. He’ll get better, but he was terrible Sunday.
The one bright spot in all of this, is that the Ravens have the perfect salve coming in next week…the Cleveland Browns. If this team has any hutzpah, they will come out and lay a 34-3 butt whooping on the Brownies on Sunday. Cleveland is terrible, it’s the Ravens home opener, and the defense is playing off the hook. I would hate to be wearing an orange helmet on Sunday, but this game rides on Joe’s right arm and the performance of the offensive unit. Anything under 300+ yards and 3-4 touchdowns, to me, would be a disappointment. They need to come out and destroy Cleveland, and I think they will.
At any rate, it’s early, they are 1-1, and Cleveland is coming to town…
GO RAVENS!!!!!! Let’s right this ship.

suspicion and lack of confidence" in the first
presidential election of the 21st Century. Democ-

Judge rules Wisconsin
funding process illegal
By Usa Koivu
Daily Staff Reporter
After a Supreme Court ruling last spring per-
mitted universities to use mandatory student fees
to fund student groups, U.S. District Judge John
Shabaz ruled Friday that the way the University
of Wisconsin distributes fees is illegal.
The judge ruled that there is no guarantee the
funds are being allocated in a viewpoint neutral
basis, a requirement for the system according to
the Supreme Court's opinion.
The case, Kendra FIry v. University of Wiscon-
sin System Board of Regents, challenged the
viewpoint neutrality of the Wisconsin system.
The system allows the student government to dis-
tribute funds but also permits the chancellor of
each campus to veto the decisions.
The case stems from a lawsuit filed in 1996, in
which Wisconsin student Scott Southworth
claimed the allocation of mandatory student fees
violated his First Amendment rights. In that case,
Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin
System v. Southworth, Southworth said his
money should not be used to fund any student
group ideologically, religiously or politically
offensive to his own beliefs.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled last March that
the university did have a right to collect student
fees, but sent the case back to district court to
examine the legality of the distribution method.
According to the Supreme Court decision, "the
First Amendment permits a public university to
charge its students an activity fee used to fund a
program to facilitate extracurricular student speech,
provided that the program is viewpoint neutral."
The ruling continues to say "the University
exacts the fee at issue for the sole purpose of
facilitating the free and open exchange of ideas
by, and among, its students."

If you're one of the seven people who hasn't seen Avengers: Endgame yet, you might want to get down to your local cinema this weekend.
Directors Joe and Anthony Russo have confirmed that the "spoiler ban" on the film, which was enacted with a #DontSpoilTheEndgame hashtag ahead of the film's release, will come to an end on Monday 6th May.
Of course, most corners of the internet (including this one) have been heartily conversing about the movie – beneath heavy spoiler warnings – since its release on 25th April.
But the Russos' announcement means that everyone involved with the film will now be free to speak about it in depth during any press appearances, and will give Marvel fans license to share information on its twists and turns online.
Speaking on Good Morning America, Joe Russo said that there "has to be" a point at which everyone can stop stressing about spoilers.
"Part of why we make these movies is for conversation," he said.
In a tweet, they later confirmed it: "The spoiler ban lifts on Monday".
You've been warned...

DOV's music is hypnotic, to say the least. It is stunning and beautiful, every song powerful in a different way.
Based in the sixties, in the small town of Pipalnagar where nothing ever happens, the story is told from the point of view of Arun, an aspiring writer, who aims to one day live in Delhi. While the town of Pipalnagar is almost a character of the story in itself, Arun is only living there because he doesn’t have anywhere else to go.
For you made my world a little happier,
Made my heart a little full
Made my life a little brighter,
Love used to be a mouthful.
The song is strikingly genuine, and it is hard not to get caught up in the emotions it expresses, and feel just as lost as the singer themselves. It is clear how much this relationship meant to Somaya, and it is easy to understand every emotion expressed in the song.
“I’m not a refugee. I am an immigrant,” you tell them but it doesn’t matter because you’re still different, and different is all they care about.
With sweet lyrics like “You’re the only thing that matters, other than the things I wanna share with you”, the song is sure to leave you feeling warm and fuzzy, if not a little tearful about how beautiful love is.
You realize you were in love when it's far too late
“When you bleed, I cry, and if you cry, I'll break”
And you fell too soon but you were supposed to be straight,
And now you're sitting here, in his blood and cold
Driven into a dead-end by fate.
There are lesbians, bisexual, asexual and pansexual people, and one of the most important characters, Eric, is not only iconic, but also a gay teenager who is finally coming around to accepting himself for who he is.
The music video for Temptation, the song that helped her– and many other Desis, I imagine– come to term with her sexuality, is also similar to her other music videos, and now, almost two years later, Raveena has come out with a new single ‘Headaches’ that is unapologetically queer.
Miley is not all good, though– like any other celebrity, she has had her fair share of controversies.
maybe my skin is pale, or it’s not
or maybe i think i’m gay, or i’ve fought
battles and cried and begged for my rights
Blue were the days when you thought I wouldn't stay,
Your eyes teary, a challenge, asking me to run away,
But in the middle of the dark woods, we somehow found a way
My words became the music to which you could sway.
Her photographs have a distinct, ethereal style, almost– something about the colours and the contrast draws you in and keeps you there.
In person– or on the laptop screen as we talk– Sufi is warm and brilliant, much like her Instagram username, @sufi.sun. She is articulate and reflective, determined to say the right things, thinking over her answers carefully each time.
Pauline Mancini, 24 years old, lives in Lorraine, France. She started music at the age of 16, not knowing anything about it.
She stayed quiet for a few seconds, before sighing, "I just– I thought they'd call, I suppose. My parents. It's silly to hope, but I couldn't help it."

Happy New Year, everyone! Hand on my CommitChange heart, we’ve been so happy to have worked alongside you in 2016 and we truly do look forward to working with you even more in 2017!
Going into the new year, nonprofits are going to be more important than ever. In the past few years, both locally and internationally, the actualization of the collective nonprofit mission statement has become even more critical. New Year on New Year, nonprofit resources have been stretched. The good news is, the ways by which a NPO’s champions can support a cause is now limited only by the extent to which a nonprofit can imagine new ways that it can be supported.
As a matter of priority, we actively listen to you, our community. And we bring your feedback to bear on our service. In turn, you have been able to listen to what we think is important, too. And you have also used this listening to adapt your service. One example of how you have listened to us, of which we are exceptionally proud and grateful, stands out.
As long as we have existed, we have nudged our nonprofits to adopt more sustainable revenue streams i.e. to emphasize recurring donations. Some nonprofits have really taken this message onboard. In 2016, we are thrilled to see that you have bucked the industry trend... and then some. Of all donations processed in the United States, the national average of monthly recurring donations is 2-4% vs. CommitChange, which stands at a phenomenal 18%. All of a sudden, your nonprofit has a predictable budget. This is transformative.
Where public-private partnerships have foundered, these organisations have broken new ground:
SOIL is a Haitian nonprofit that empowers the local population through ecological sanitation infrastructure, as well as disaster relief. They have increased their recurring donations to 30%;
PRX is an indie podcast/radio exchange that has run two phenomenally self-sustaining campaigns resulting in 69% recurring online revenue. Their unique strategy has been to get a large number of low-amount recurring donations ($4.66) that add up to a large net amount (>USD$1M). This has been the result of mobilizing their passionate and loyal fan base;
and the Congolese Panzi Foundation has been able to respond to 400,000 victims of an international humanitarian crisis by increasing recurring revenue to 10%. See The New York Times report on their unprecedented efficacy and Nicholas Kristof's recent endorsement of their work.
What ground will be broken next year?
As advocates for social reform, we encourage you to embrace the opportunities that tech presents. They abound. And in 2017, they’re there for the taking.
Happy New Year!

The Integral Temperature Method for the evaluation of the scoring load capacity of gears is described. All necessary equations for the practical application are presented. The limit scoring temperature for any oil can be obtained from a gear scoring test.
Base oils play an important role in determining the performance of an industrial gear oil. They influence characteristics such as low temperature performance, biodegradability, energy efficiency and high temperature thermal and oxidative stability.
When it comes to purchasing gear lubricants, many people on both the sales and purchasing side decide to play the numbers game. The person with the most numbers, or the biggest numbers, or the lowest numbers, must have the best product - right? Wrong; gear oil selection is not a game, and numbers alone cannot determine the right product for an application.
The diagnosis and prevention of gear tooth and bearing wear requires the discovery and understanding of the particular mechanism of wear, which in turn indicates the best method of prevention. Because a gearbox is a tribologically dependent mechanism, some understanding of gear and bearing tribology is essential for this process. Tribology is the general term for the study and practice of lubrication, friction and wear. If tribology is neglected or considered insignificant, poor reliability and short life will result.
The following article is concerned with the analysis of the wear-reducing effect of PVD-coatings in gearings. Standardized test methods are used, which under near-real conditions enable statements to be made about the different forms of damage and wear (micropitting, macropitting, scuffing).

A credit derivative is a type of derivative in which the risk that a loan will not be repaid is sold to a party other than the lender.
Credit default swaps are a form of credit derivative:
In finance, a credit derivative refers to any one of "various instruments and techniques designed to separate and then transfer the credit risk" or the risk of an event of default of a corporate or sovereign borrower, transferring it to an entity other than the lender or debtholder.
An unfunded credit derivative is one where credit protection is bought and sold between bilateral counterparties without the protection seller having to put up money upfront or at any given time during the life of the deal unless an event of default occurs. Usually these contracts are traded pursuant to an International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) master agreement. Most credit derivatives of this sort are credit default swaps. If the credit derivative is entered into by a financial institution or a special purpose vehicle (SPV) and payments under the credit derivative are funded using securitization techniques, such that a debt obligation is issued by the financial institution or SPV to support these obligations, this is known as a funded credit derivative.
This synthetic securitization process has become increasingly popular over the last decade, with the simple versions of these structures being known as synthetic collateralized debt obligations (CDOs); credit-linked notes; single tranche CDOs, to name a few. In funded credit derivatives, transactions are often rated by rating agencies, which allows investors to take different slices of credit risk according to their risk appetite.
Credit market participants, regulators, and courts are increasingly using credit derivative pricing to help inform decisions about loan pricing, risk management, capital requirements, and legal liability.

From the time our children emerge from the womb, we’re bombarded with questions about how well our babies sleep and eat. These questions sound innocent enough, yet seem to seek that deeper question of how much our children depend on us, how needy they are, and how independent they are from day one. It is unspoken, but it seems that the better our answers are alluding to the un-neediness of our offspring, the “better” we are as parents. And new parents are vulnerable. Even if we don’t believe that our children shouldn’t be needing us, doubts can creep in unwillingly to even the strongest parent whose baby is getting up again in the middle of the night at (gasp) 8 weeks old. Or 8 months old. Or 18 months old.
Lately, I’ve been really reflecting about what families can do to create more nurturing experiences. With my recent experiences with the work of Hedy Schleifer and Crossing the Bridge, I have some ideas that might help you start thinking about the simple things you can do to create more love, connection, and nurturing in your family. Hint: It doesn’t have to take a lot of time!


Self-driving cars are the next big thing. It could be just a couple of months before you find yourself wondering why the driver next to you is not driving. There are two types of self-driving cars: semi-autonomous and autonomous. These cars brake, speed up and steer with limited driver interaction. Safer driving and less congested roads sound pretty good, right? Unfortunately, it’s not so simple. There is big money going into research and development to figure out all the tricky details. Tesla, Google, and Uber have already announced self-driving projects. Will these companies make car history with the new technology?
Are self-driving cars safe?
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimated 35,398 motor vehicle traffic deaths in 2014. Self-driving cars have the potential to save thousands of lives by using state-of-the-art technology to detect and prevent accidents that would have otherwise been caused by human error. Earlier this year, President Obama proposed $4 billion in the federal budget for driverless car research over the next ten years. The goal is not just accessible, but safer driving. Soon after, the Department of Safety released a 15-point checklist for the design and development of autonomous vehicles. The checklist includes how occupants will be protected in crashes and the requirement of manufacturers to be transparent about how their technology was developed.
What are companies doing?
Tesla has sold tens and thousands of cars with their self-driving feature, Autopilot. The Autopilot software has been recently updated, partly in response to the fatal accident that happened in May. The company has claimed more than 780 million miles traveled using the Autopilot feature. This year, they announced they will get to Level 3 autonomous and the components are being fitted to cars in production right now. For reference, Level 3 autonomous means that the drivers acts as a backup to the autonomous technology.
Google has been testing self-driving cars out of their home base in Mountain View, California. They started their driverless car project in 2009 and have driven more than 1.8 million miles in tests. They have not made as much progress as some of their competitors. They are approaching new projects with caution after Glass internet-connected eyewear failed, according to an unnamed Google source. Just a few days ago, on October 24th, CEO John Krafic announced in Palo Alto that the self-driving car project is transitioning to a “graduating project.” The project will move into its own independent entity. More to come on this in the next couple of months.
Uber is the only company to have brought a driverless car, car-sharing service to the market. This year, Uber has been offering driverless cars to loyal, Pittsburgh customers. The vehicles being used in Pittsburgh are modified Volvo XC90 sport utility vehicles outfitted with camera sensors, lasers, radar and GPS receivers. The company has allocated $300 million to develop a fully autonomous car by 2021 and will continue to make deals with other auto manufacturers.
Oh, the possibilities
Self-driving cars are a complete game changer. Like any other new technology, it will take more time and money before autonomous vehicles are perfected. But for now, imagine all of the awesome possibilities. Parking structures could be completely repurposed and roads may become less congested. Companies would be able to continuously update their self-driving software, reflecting the changing needs of consumers. We can’t wait to see what’s next.

Boston wants to purchase offshore wind energy
The City of Boston put its support behind a company vying for multi-state offshore wind contracts, which, if selected, would make Boston the first city to enter an agreement for offshore wind energy.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced last week that the city is supporting Avangrid Renewables’s bid to provide offshore wind power for Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. The three states entered a historic agreement last fall for thousands of megawatts in energy from offshore wind.
Three large companies – Avangrid, South Coast Wind Energy, and Vineyard Offshore – submitted their proposals to Massachusetts by last Wednesday’s deadline. If Massachusetts picks Avangrid, Boston could purchase up to 15 megawatts of energy, or about one wind turbine, as part of a future arrangement, the city said.
While states contract with offshore wind suppliers, Boston would be the first city to enter such agreements.
“Boston must lead the way in building a sustainable future, and we’re proud to set a new standard with a direct stake in innovation to create clean energy and good jobs for our residents and communities,” Wu said in a statement.
Avangrid, whose parent company Iberdrola is a Spain-based electric utility company, submitted two project bids for the tri-state initiative. If Massachusetts chooses one or both, some of Boston’s purchased energy would power municipal buildings and some homes, the mayor said.
The 15 megawatts is equal to nearly a third of all the electricity used by Boston Public Schools every year and could power nearly 5,000 homes, the city said. Avangrid also offered vocational training to BPS students, which Wu said is a vital part of the city’s Green New Deal green job pipeline.
“This partnership advances our climate goals while bringing thousands of green jobs to our region, creating a pathway for generations to come,” Wu said in a statement.
The winning bids are expected to be announced in August.

Lee Elder, the first black man to play the Masters, and his battle for recognition
The 86-year-old has been invited back to Augusta to become one of the tournament’s honorary starters in 2021, 45 years after his historic debut
Lee Elder, the first black man to play at the Masters, will join Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player and become one of the tournament’s honorary starters in April. For some, the ceremonial tee shots are mere frippery but the 86-year-old’s presence will mark a significant staging point in a seismic year.
Two scholarships that will help the local black community as well as funds for a women’s golf team at a local college are positive moves. Some 45 years after Elder made his historic debut there are still only a few black players on the PGA Tour. In June, as protests spread across the USA after the killing of George Floyd, one of them, Harold Varner III, told me: “I don’t like talking politics but

Aldo - My daughter and I took a wonderful 8 hour tour with Tony on the Amalfi Coast. He picked us up right on time at our hotel in Sorrento and the fun began. We went to Positano, Amalfi, and high in the hills to Ravello where Tony introduced us to a great restaurant that I think was the best meal we had in Italy. The botanical gardens were gorgeous!
