Not having a clearly defined sense of what can and cannot be done on public spaces held up Thursday's Planning Board discussion of Studio Plaza, a mixed-used development that will bring more housing, retail and office space to downtown Silver Spring.
The first phase of the project by Robert Hillerson and Michael, LLC includes more than 400 apartment units and 10,500 square feet of retail space. It was eventually approved by the commissioners with the caveat that if a more specific definition of how public spaces should be used is created, the developer will comply.
Bounded by Thayer Avenue to the north, Silver Spring Avenue to the south, Fenton Street to the east and Mayor Lane to the West, Studio Plaza is a 5-acre plot of land that will eventually house about one-fourth of an acre of public, green space and an underground public parking garage, to replace 152 public parking spaces that will be displaced by the construction.
How the public will access the public space and what they can do once they've accessed the public space was the subject of some written and verbal testimony on the project. Developers redesigned the project last December after community members complained that the structure wouldn't fit in with the neighborhood.
At the Planning Board's Feb. 21 meeting, commissioners grappled with the fact that public use isn't clearly defined for private projects with public space like Studio Plaza. A possible solution was to create a zoning text amendment that would create rules for public spaces in the county.
Developers said they are planning a second phase of the project, plans for which haven't been submitted to the county.

UJA Federation of Greater Toronto has been a major, longtime supporter of higher education in Israel,
The involvement in the city of Sderot and its impact has been nothing short of a revolution.
“The resilience of a town like Sderot – economically marginalized and targeted periodically by rocket fire from Gaza – relies on the development of strong local leadership,” explains Eddy Azran, UJA Toronto’s representative in Sderot.
Accordingly, UJA Federation – represented by the Israel office of JFC-UIA -- provides tuition assistance to students from Sderot, enabling them to pursue either a bachelor’s or a master’s degree. Having grown up locally, they are likely to remain in the town after graduating.
This assistance recently received a major boost, when UJA Federation’s initial allocation of $180,000 inspired several Israeli philanthropies -- including Mifal Hapayis, Israel’s national lottery -- to join forces with UJA Federation to create one multi-year scholarship fund for Sderot students. The combined funds total approximately $625,000, and will ensure long-term sustainability and continuity. This year, no less than 250 students will each receive the sum of $2,500, which is almost the entire annual cost of tuition at an Israeli university.
In Israel, young adults begin college after their army service, in their early or mid-twenties. Some students are already married. Assistance with tuition enables students to concentrate on their studies without the distraction and stress of financial worries.
Every recipient is a member of one of several NGOs which encourage social activism and facilitate community involvement among students. Through that framework, each student volunteers in Sderot for at least five hours a week, working with schoolchildren, the elderly or other vulnerable populations, organizing community events and galvanizing social action.
“The scholarship fund boosts not just the students, but the community as a whole,” says Alon Davidi, the mayor of Sderot, who was instrumental in consolidating the fund.
“Students are the leaders of tomorrow. Armed with an academic degree, they will go on to get well-paying jobs and will have the skills and the motivation to advocate for the community. The more we support our students, the more we strengthen ourselves.”
UJA Federation’s support for scholarships is part of a larger initiative to revolutionize Sderot's education system, from early childhood through high school and college. “We are hugely grateful to Toronto,” concludes Mayor Davidi, “for its multi-year commitment to creating real change in Sderot.”


India skipper Virat Kohli has been left out of the T20I squad for the three short-form games against Bangladesh due to commence on November 3. Kohli, who recently participated in the Test series whitewash over South Africa, will be sitting out of the T20I matches.
India’s veteran batsman Rohit Sharma will be performing the captaincy duties for the three-match series, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced.
Rohit has already captained India in 15 T20Is and is the incumbent skipper of Indian Premier League (IPL) champions Mumbai Indians.
Kohli will, nevertheless, return to lead India in the two Tests which follow the T20I encounters. The decision taken by the BCCI to rest Kohli is part of the workload management policy in order to keep their star players’ fitness intact.

From a carpet of green, the colours emerge, as if untouched, since birth, by human hand.
Some stretch towards the warmth of the sun. In a shaded corner, others rest in small space, unassuming.
Some separate and spread themselves, climbing with sheer determination to their place of rest, to fix contentedly on brick or wood.
Some try to take control, knowing theirs will be a short journey, ended by the blade, to keep the balance.
Some have lived gloriously, but now must die and as they fall from velvet, red and purple to withered brown and black, they silently surrender.
I watch you as you weave through your garden of life, gently laying the dead to rest, careful not to disturb the living.

Just going from memory, the first polyspherical heads showed up on the 241 Dodge in '54, in trucks. Poly heads were cheaper to manufacture than the hemispherical heads. The poly was the '55 Plymouth engine, first a 260 and then 270(?) that year. The cheaper Dodges also starting using poly heads, but the Royal and D-500 were still hemis. Poly heads were first used on Chryslers in '57 on the Saratoga and Newport 354s. The only hi-perf version of the poly I'm aware of was the '57-8 V-800, a 318 with 2 4-barrels. There's a road test that has the 301 4-barrel poly, the next engine down in the Plymouth line-up, quicker off the line. DeSotos and senior Chryslers were all hemis. It's almost like the poly and hemi heads fit the same blocks. The wedge came out in the '58 model year (one little-known version was 350 CID) but hemis were used that year too--last year.
#9 of 17 Hemi and Poly engines
Feb 18, 2001 (8:05 am)
I have a 1957 DeSoto shop manual, and didn't even think to look in it until now, but it confirms what I've always thought about the DeSoto engines...the 325 engine used on the Firesweep was a poly-head engine, with 245 hp in a 2-bbl setup or 260 hp in a 4-bbl setup. So I'm guessing that the 325's used in Dodge Royals and Custom Royals was a poly, as well.
A few years back, I remember seeing a 1956 Chrysler Windsor in the junkyard, and whatever it had was definitely a poly-head engine (exposed spark plugs, "saw-tooth" shape of the lower edge of the valve covers). According to my auto encyclopedia, it should have been a 331.1, with either 225 hp or 250 hp (2bbl vs 4bbl, I guess).
Now, something else I'm curious about...the Dodge 315/325 and the DeSoto 330.4, 341, and 345 all have the same stroke...3.80". Could this be an indication that DeSoto and Dodge used the same block? I know the Chrysler's block was bigger and heavier back then, but not sure about DeSoto/Dodge.
While the DeSoto Hemi's were phased out for 1958 in favor of 350 and 361 wedge-heads, it looks like the Dodge 325 held on another year, along with the Chrysler 354's and 392's. Chrysler's engines were replaced by 383's and 413's for 1959, while it looks like the Dodge 325 was retired in favor of a slightly bored out 318...a 326 offering 255 hp.
As for another possibly high-performance poly, this encyclopedia mentions a 325 from 1957, standard in the D-500. The horsepower is listed as 285/310, so evidently it came in two flavors, in addition to the more mundane 245 and 260 hp engines.
Oh yeah, as for performance times...here's about all I could find listed in this encyclopedia, and take it with a grain of salt: 1958 DeSoto Firedome w/ optional 305 hp 361 (standard in Fireflite): 0-60 in 7.7, 0-80 in 13.5, "and reached 115 mph with little strain". The main reason I question this is because the same book states that a 1959 Chrysler 300-E, "With 10.1:1 compression, Torqueflite, and a 3.31:1 rear axle ratio, the E could run 0-60 in less than 8.5, and reach 90 mph by 17.5 seconds." According to this book, the 300-E had a 413 with 380 hp. The book also lists weights...a '58 Firedome 2dr HT base weight was 3825 lb, while the '59 300-E 2dr HT weighed in at 4290. Would the 300-E's added weight be enough to offset 75 hp advantage it had over the '58 Firedome?
Here are a few more acceleration quotes from this book...
1951 Chrysler Saratoga: 0-60 in 10 seconds, top speed, 110 mph
1957 Dodge (no model specified, I'm guessig a Coronet), 245 hp 325: 0-60 in 9.5 seconds.
1960 Chrysler 300-F, 4speed manual, quarter mile in 16 seconds at 85 mph
As for the the original topic of this forum...first car to break 100 mph in the 1/4 mile...I'm still wondering what it could be. From memory, one of the quickest road test I remember was a Car & Driver (or Motortrend, forget which) test of a 1986 or '87 Buick Grand National. They got it to do 0-60 in 4.9 seconds, and the 1/4 mile in something like 14.9 seconds95 mph. Of course, your mileage may vary
Feb 18, 2001 (10:08 am)
I think the '57 D-500 engine was a hemi. There was an optional engine, the D-501, that was the 354/340 used in the '56 300. BTW the optional 355-hp 300-B engine was the first to claim one hp per cubic inch, was the 340-hp engine with milled heads (10:1 CR) and 3-inch exhaust. Apparently brought out just before Daytona Speed Week.
The 300 was geared more as a high-speed crusier, with 3.54s in the first ones and 3.36 by '57. According to John Gunnell's book on 300s, they were relatively slow off the line (fairly tall gearing and lots of cam) but were still accelerating at 80-90 mph. He's got some 0-100 times in the 24 second range for the '57.
Has two roadtests of the '59, one showing 0-60 in 8.3 seconds and 0-100 in 22.5 seconds. The other test has a 1/4-mile time of 17.2 and 92 mph. The mph shows a serious weight-to-horsepower ratio but the time is slower--lots of weight and tall gears held it back. '59 standard ratio was 3.31 or 2.93.
You're right, the poly showed up in the Chryslers and DeSotos before '57. In fact, the '55 Windsor used a 301 that was probably a poly, maybe the same 301 used in the '57 Plymouth. The '59 Dodge 326 does look like a bored out 318 at 3.95 x 3.31.
Feb 18, 2001 (5:12 pm)
Wouldn't all Hemi heads have a center spark plug, due to the peculiar valve arrangement? I recall a 1955 Dodge Royal Lancer I had with the spark plugs centered in the top of the head...or am I hallucinating?
One thing I believe about these 0-60 times for 1950s cars...I think many of these autos had very low gearing in the differential, as evidenced by rather modest top speeds....not that you'd WANT to go over 120 mph in a 4400 lb car with soft suspension, feeble brakes and 2 ply tires!
#12 of 17 1955 Dodges and other stuff
Feb 18, 2001 (5:47 pm)
According to my auto encyclopedia, the '55 Dodge Royal should have had a 270.1 V-8, called the "Red Ram". It's got a 3.63x3.25 bore and stroke, and put out 175 hp base. The book doesn't specify on whether it was available as a poly, but if it had the spark plugs right through the center of the top of the head (you had to take a cover plate off the valve covers to get to the wires and plugs) then it was a Hemi. The original Red Ram, from 1953, was a Hemi, a 241.3 with a 3.44x3.25 borexstroke.
As for the gear ratios back then, I know they had a variety of options. One of the first 300's (don't remember if it was a '55 or '56) could be ordered with something like a 6.17:1 ratio. I'm sure that thing must have been a screamer...and a guzzler!
As for some REAL old performance times, this book also mentions the 1931-33 Imperial, powered by a 385 inline-8 with 125 hp. It weighed about 5,000 lb, and did 0-60 in about 20 seconds, with a top speed of 96 mph. Now THAT's a little scary, although supposedly Walter P. Chrysler put heavy emphasis on good brakes.
Feb 18, 2001 (8:21 pm)
Shiftright, you had a Dodge? With, like, chrome? This must have been in a previous life.
I've got a banker's box full of '50s road tests that would probably answer most of these questions, but ol' Speedshift is working 70 hours a week during one of real estate's periodic upturns so it may be a while.
#14 of 17 This discussion got my curiosity up
Feb 19, 2001 (1:19 am)
so I looked in the "Standard Catalogue of American Cars-1946-1975." According to the engine listings for Dodge and Chrysler from 55-57, the 55 Dodge 270 was available in both Hemi and "poly" heads-same bore and stroke. The Chrysler 331 and 354 engines, according to the book, were also available in both hemi and poly heads-same bore and stroke. It gets even more confusing if you study the other mopar engines from the 50s. Apparently the original DeSoto 276 hemi was a bored and stroked version of the original Dodge 241 hem1, which became the 270 in 55. Chrysler juggled so many different bores and strokes on their V8 engines from 52-62, it's definitely hard to follow. But apparently, there were basically two hemi engines-the original Dodge and DeSoto hemis, in various bores and strokes, and also in "poly" heads, and the larger Chrysler hemi, which was made in 331,354, and 392 in sizes, and available in "poly" heads only in the 331 and 354. Right? Whew!

Mancheter United have reportedly earmarked Arsenal centre-back Thomas Vermaelen as their main target to replace Nemanja Vidic, who recently confirmed he will joined Inter Milan at the end of the season once his contract at the Premier League champions expires.
Even though Vermaelen started in his side's 4-1 FA Cup victory over Everton, the 28-year-old defender is reportedly keen on moving away at the end of the season as he has only made three starting Premier League appearances this season.
According to The Sun, Manchester United are monitoring his situation as manager David Moyes sees him as the perfect replacement for Vidic.
Furthermore, the report adds that Vermaelen's strong relationship with United striker Robin Van Persie may help to complete the deal, with Arsenal expected to demand around £12m for his services.
Vermaelen joined Arsenal from Ajax in 2009 and although he remains club captain he has lost his place in Arsene Wenger's line-up in favour of the impressive partnership forged by Per Mertesacker and Laurent Koscielny.
Reports suggest the Belgium international was already interested in moving to Napoli during the January transfer window in order to boost his hopes of winning a starting role in his country's World Cup side, but Wenger refused to sell him in mid-season as he is the club's only other option at centre half.
However, Vermaelen's agent Alex Kroes recently revealed that his client has told his manager that he wants to leave the Emirates at the end of the season.
"Thomas has told Wenger that he wants to leave Arsenal this summer," he said.
After Vidic confirmed his departure from Old Trafford and with Rio Ferdinand's future also uncertain, United have recently been linked with a number of centre-backs including Porto star Eliaquim Mangala, former Manchester City defender Stefan Savic and Benfica's Ezequiel Garay.

On September 27, Centro proposed a new transit pass that would offer unlimited rides for seven consecutive calendar days. These new MAX passes would cost $20 ($10 reduced fare), equivalent to the cost of paying the full cash fare two times each day of a five-day work week.
Centro had sold 7-day unlimited passes for $15 prior to 2015. The transit agency stopped offering unlimited passes in order to save enough money to maintain its late-night and Sunday service during a budget crisis in the Spring of 2015. Since that time, the only way for people to get a deal on their fare has been to buy 10-ride passes for $18, 20-ride passes for $36, or 30-ride passes for $54. Centro also sells unlimited single day passes for $5.
The new MAX passes are definitely a good thing. For anyone who takes the bus at least 12 times a week, the $20 MAX passes will be cheaper than the cheapest option currently available–the multi-ride passes that price out to $1.80 a trip.
Unlimited passes like these also remove the stress of choosing which trips to make in any given week. An unexpected trip to the doctor won’t take away the fare that you’d intended to use to get to the grocery store. With unlimited rides, each extra trip you take makes the pass a better deal.
This benefits Centro as well, because part of their funding from the State is determined by the number of rides they provide. If these passes allow people to afford more bus rides, then Centro will receive more State funding automatically.
Although this is all good news, the MAX pass still won’t make transit as affordable in Syracuse as it is in Rochester or Albany.
RTS and CDTA provide Rochester and Albany with more extensive service than Syracuse gets from Centro, and they do it while charging their riders less money. Syracuse should be getting better transit service for the price its people are paying. NFTA in Buffalo charges the same $2 cash fare as Centro, and they’ve got a subway to show for it.
An unlimited monthly pass would go a long way towards making the bus more affordable in Syracuse. Before that 2015 budget crisis, Centro had offered monthly passes for $60. If they reintroduce an unlimited monthly pass for something like $65 or $70, that would put a little more money in people’s pockets, and it would encourage more people to ride the bus. Hopefully, this weekly MAX pass is the first step towards bringing the monthly passes back.
Centro is hosting an information session from 4:00 pm to 5:30 pm on Wednesday October 18 at OCPL’s Central Library. At 5:30 pm they’ll begin a public hearing. Show up, find out all the details, and let them know what you need out of your transit system.


Nanjing has unveiled its emblem for the second Summer Youth Olympic Games in 2014 – 1185 days ahead of the event.
The emblem launch ceremony was broadcast live on national television to audiences across China.
The design commemorates Nanjing’s rich history by incorporating the famous City Gate in the wording. By using each letter “n” to symbolize an open gate, the emblem conveys a warm “welcome” message, encouraging all future athletes, spectators and audiences from around the world to come together to share in the excitement of the 2014 Youth Games in Nanjing.
International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Jacques Rogge said at the ceremony, “this colourful and contemporary logo is the perfect symbol for Nanjing and China as a whole. It represents your passion for sport and culture, and the welcoming City Gates symbolize the warmth and friendliness of the Nanjing people”.
He added, “it also represents the energy of the city and the nation, and it is this vibrancy that will inspire young people around the world to join in the celebrations in 2014”.

• Ductile layers control deformation mode and rift architecture during early rifting.
• Hydrated minerals and magma additions control deformation in hyperextended domains.
• Mantle controls location of necking, magmatic budget and thermal structure.
• Inheritance controls neither location of breakup nor nature of first oceanic crust.
A long-standing question in Earth Sciences is related to the importance of inheritance in controlling tectonic processes. In contrast to physical processes that are generally applicable, assessing the role of inheritance suffers from two major problems: firstly, it is difficult to appraise without having insights into the history of a geological system; and secondly all inherited features are not reactivated during subsequent deformation phases. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to give some conceptual framework about how inheritance may control the architecture and evolution of hyperextended rift systems.In this paper, we use the term inheritance to refer to the difference between an “ideal” layer-cake type lithosphere and a “real” lithosphere containing heterogeneities. The underlying philosophy of this work is that the evolution of hyperextended rift systems reflects the interplay between their inheritance (innate/“genetic code”) and the physical processes at play (acquired/external factors). Thus, by observing the architecture and evolution of hyperextended rift systems and integrating the physical processes, one may get hints on what may have been the original inheritance of a system.We first define 3 types of inheritance, namely structural, compositional and thermal inheritance and develop a simple and robust terminology able to describe and link observations made at different scales using geological, geophysical and modeling approaches. To this, we add a definition of rift-induced processes, i.e. processes leading to compositional changes during rifting (e.g. serpentinization or decompression melting). Using this approach, we focus on 3 well-studied rift systems that are the Alpine Tethys, Pyrenean–Bay of Biscay and Iberia–Newfoundland rift systems. However, as all these examples are magma-poor, hyperextended rift systems that evolved over a Variscan lithosphere the concepts developed in this paper cannot be applied universally. For the studied examples we can show that:1)the inherited structures did not significantly control the location of breakup2)the inherited thermal state may control the mode and architecture of rift systems, in particular the architecture of the necking zone3)the architecture of the necking zone may be influenced by the distribution and importance of ductile layers during decoupled deformation and is consequently controlled by the thermal structure and/or the inherited composition of the crust4)conversely, the deformation in hyperextended domains is strongly controlled by weak hydrated minerals (e.g. clay, serpentinite) that result from the breakdown of feldspar and olivine due to fluid and reaction assisted deformation5)inherited structures, in particular weaknesses, are important in controlling strain localization on a local scale and during early stages of rifting6)inherited mantle composition and rift-related mantle processes may control the rheology of the mantle, the magmatic budget, the thermal structure and the localization of final rifting.These key observations show that both inheritance and rift-induced processes played a significant role in the development of the magma-poor southern North Atlantic and Alpine Tethys rift systems and that the role of inheritance may change as the physical conditions vary during the evolving rifting and as rift-induced processes (serpentinization; magma) become more important. Thus, it is not only important to determine the “genetic code” of a rift system, but also to understand how it interacts and evolves during rifting. Understanding how far these new ideas and concepts derived from the well-studied hyperextended rift systems of the southern North Atlantic and Alpine Tethys can be translated to other less explored hyperextended rift systems will be one of the challenges of future research in rifted margins.

Introducing El GATO: The Cat Anderson Replica Series mouthpiece!
For years and years one of the things I've always wanted to do here at ACB is to re-launch classic trumpet mouthpieces that are long since discontinued. This piece replicates the famous mouthpiece formerly owned by the late, great Cat Anderson of Duke Ellington's band. We have reverse engineered it and we are now making an incredibly accurate version for sale here at the shop.
This is an extremely shallow mouthpiece (see the pics below) and incredible high-compression mouthpiece. Not for the faint of heart!

A high-resolution CCD X-ray camera based on YAG:Ce or LuAG:Ce thin scintillators is presented. The high resolution in low energy X-ray radiation is proved on several objects. The achieved spatial resolution of the images is better than 1 micron. The objects used for imaging are grids and small animals with parts of several microns in dimension. The high-resolution imaging system can be used for different types of ionizing radiation (X-Ray, electron, UV, and VUV) for non-destructive micro-radiography and synchrotron beam inspection.


text: Intercellular Communication and Polarity During Drosophila oogenesis, the germline cells and the somatic follicle cells interact constantly, sending signals back and forth to communicate and eventually to build a functional egg for the development of the next generation. These oocytes are asymmetrically constructed, storing positional information, specific mRNAs and proteins that are localized in specific subcellular compartments. When the egg is fertilized, these localized molecules direct the formation of the major body axes—the anterior-posterior (AP) and the dorsal-ventral (DV) axes—a process fundamental to the development of bilateral animals. The localization of these determinants requires the oocyte to build a polarized network of cytoskeleton microtubules. Although many players involved in this polarity formation have been identified, several key steps in the process remain unclear. For example, posterior follicle cells were known to signal a change in oocyte polarity, but the nature of signal remained unknown. My lab has investigated both the nature of the posterior follicle cell signaling and the responding mechanisms working in the oocyte to establish the proper polarity. We have shown that a follicle-cell extracellular-matrix component is required for proper oocyte polarity. Work in my lab led to the discovery that the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor signaling pathway, as well as Notch signaling, downregulates expression of Dystroglycan (a transmembrane complex that when defective leads to muscular dystrophy in humans) in follicle cells. Inside the oocyte, how microtubule polarity is regulated is also largely unclear. Recently, we have revealed a novel pathway that involves tumor-suppressor Lethal Giant Larvae (Lgl) and conserved cell-polarity genes such as aPKC and Par-1 to regulate the microtubule asymmetry in the oocyte. Figure 1. Dystroglycan is required in the germline for correct oocyte polarity during early oogenesis (A, B). (A) The wild-type oocyte has enriched actin staining (arrows), but the DG germ-line clone disrupts this enrichment (B). (From Deng et al., 2003).

I am merging; Just dogs with Sherri and Cook'n just for dogs with Sherri are now one. I find myself extremely busy these days so the two are now one. I haven't been getting around to writing the second blog since April so this is the best option for me. I will leave the Cook'n blog standing; it has a lot of information on feeding dogs on it for those who want to read some of it.
So this mornings blog is about eating and the differences in each dog's eating habits and tastes. Long ago when I fed my dogs generic dog food; and this is way back in the beginning I put the food on the floor and they ate; boy how times have changed. I clearly remember asking my vet at the time (I was in my early 20s) "is there a difference in foods?" He shook his head and claimed "they're all the same." So I bought the cheaper generic food. I wish I could go back in time and change things but you can't so you learn and push forwards.
Over the years I've learned a lot about nutrition; it is something I am very interested in. Having two long time vegetarian daughters and recently converted son and husband we do a lot of talking about food. So it makes sense that my interest in food crossed over to the dogs. I've been feeding home prepared food to my dogs for over 10 years. I have on occasion switched back to dog food but it was the best I could buy if I did. I now feed all "real food;" I do not use the term "people food" to describe.......well real food. People food is Pizza, chips, twinkies; you get the idea. With all the real food every so often I feed dog food that is agreeable with all three dogs both in digestion and taste; so that if I ever had to leave in a pinch they could eat Orijen or Stella and Chewys dog food.
I feed a wide variety of foods; I feel it is the optimal way to cover nutritional needs. Tastes are probably the biggest thing you see once you start feeding different foods and watching; who likes what? My three dogs are very different eaters; Jessie is a your basic Hoover, she will eat anything. Tilley is a great eater; there are a few things she is not a fan of. And then there is Luke; and I wish Luke's appetite on no one, he is by far the fussiest, most picky dog I have ever met. It is a constant challenge to keep meat on that boy; although as he nears 10 years of age his svelte body will do him good.
Along with Luke's fussiness; he also has eating issues. He often snubs foods that we think he loves; his appetite is just not peaked. So I go out into the yard and toss their food around; this kicks in his drive and he eats like a champ. The girls love this type of eating as well; it is after all much closer to how their ancestors ate. I also try to get lots of healthy snacks in throughout the day; Luke get's many and the girls get a bit not to be left out.
So with the merger I will be discussing food and feeding dogs here on Just dogs with "me."

Witnessing the pervasive corruption afflicting certain Nigerian leaders is genuinely disheartening. Their apparent disregard for the people they’re meant to serve, focusing solely on personal gain, is evident. Their actions are driven purely by greed and self-interest, showing no concern for the dire repercussions on the nation and its citizens. Urgent action is imperative to rectify this situation before the harm becomes irreversible.
Let’s delve into a calculation that stems from the alleged corruption involving Godwin Emefiele, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria. If it indeed holds true that he embezzled N500 billion monthly, the cumulative annual amount reaches a staggering N6 trillion. Extending this over the eight-year span of President Buhari’s term, the total soars to an astounding N48 trillion. At the exchange rate of N445 per dollar during Buhari’s tenure, this translates to over $107 billion.
Contemplating the potential uses of the $107 billion supposedly misappropriated during Buhari’s term is mind-boggling. This substantial sum could have transformed countless lives by alleviating poverty, enhancing infrastructure, and ameliorating the sufferings of Nigerians. However, these funds have been squandered due to corruption, demanding accountability from those responsible. Retrieving and employing this money for public welfare should be a primary goal for the new government.
Consequences should extend not only to the individuals implicated in corruption, but also to their offspring, who should be prohibited from benefiting from educational achievements obtained during this period. This approach sends a powerful message that corruption carries severe repercussions, not only for the culprits but also for their families. Education, a privilege, should not be exploited to perpetuate corruption.
Osunde Douglas Eseosa, Barrister & Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria: LL.B., LL.M., (USA), BL.

How to construct Trust in a Relationship
Keeping your commitments regarding small elements is just as important if you hope to build trust in your romance. Once you’ve started to fall into bad habits, it’s only natural that over time they are going to become bigger and more challenging to keep. Therefore , if https://mail-order-brides-guide.com/latin/brazilia/ you’re during a major improvement whether it’s your career or family group life, ensure that you’re to get commitments you made and that you aren’t letting the ego interfere with that improvement.
One of the most important ways to trust others in any relationship is usually to avoid falling into the same traps. For example , if you’ve always been late to get dates or perhaps hesitate over dialling your partner because you’re stressed that they’ll identify, you need to take an extensive, hard take a look at how often you actually hold you to be in charge. If you’ve been letting minor mistakes go by, without correcting them, you have to make a decision whether some of those little faults are a thing you can experience and turn to a habit. When you’re late, call up your partner again and explain to them that you have been being even more conscientious about your appearances plus the way you hold yourself to end up being accountable so they won’t worry that you could be putting them off.
Another way to begin to build trust in a relationship is usually to make sure you aren’t using assertiveness tactics in the correct way from the beginning. How sometimes have you been a bit late just for dates or perhaps hesitate to resolve an important phone call or perhaps send a text message? Maybe you have ever been past due to a meeting? And once you’ve been doing these details on a frequent basis, do you have ever been capable of turn these habits about and bring in the admiration and love of your spouse? Well, at the time you make a major effort to be assertive at first of a romantic relationship, that’s when folks can truly begin to notice that you have the sort of self-confidence and assertiveness needed to be successful.
Trust takes on a large number of forms and it is certainly not limited to either love-making or grow old. When you start to make trust in a romantic relationship, it means that your partner will have a way to open under your control and share all their feelings and the views along, without sense undermined or patronized. In addition, it means that your spouse will be willing to listen to anything you have to state. Building trust begins with honesty. Consequently don’t be unethical about yourself – in order to build self-assurance in a relationship, it’s necessary that you end up being completely honest and transparent always.
If you actually want to take this approach to building trust in a marriage, it’s particularly crucial to be totally honest always and not to withhold facts or hold anyone primed. One way to do this is usually to make sure that you definitely include your spouse in any decisions or discussion posts about significant decisions or perhaps what’s going on inside your life. When you decide to never discuss a thing with one individual but tell someone else about it, you’re so that it is much more likely that you’re going to get this topic off your chest. If that isn’t done for the sake of building trust, you’re only leaving people waiting around for time to go over it.
Another key point to keep in mind about building trust in a relationship might be honest whenever possible with those people who are important to you. If you take the time to honestly talk to your loved ones, your loved ones, friends, fellow workers and even associates, you will develop the behavior of revealing the particular truth. This honesty will help you build strong bonds which hold you alongside one another and generate it less complicated for people to work with you as well. When you continue to keep secrets and misuses to yourself, you run the risk of your relationships falling apart.
The last and final a key point is to don’t drop your partner or perhaps give up the folks you love. You will not ever have a prosperous, fulfilling life if you disregard the people you adore because you experience that they aren’t handle youridelity. In fact , you may be encouraging those to be unfaithful themselves by certainly not putting extra effort in to building trust in a marriage with these people. If you feel the relationship is normally headed to waste, you should consider regardless of whether you’re doing cheating.
They are just a few of the real key points in relationship building that require honesty. In truth, your connection skills, integrity and dedication to those near to you is what can determine how you see the relationship and exactly how they look at you. If you think maybe that your trust requirements work, consider working on these kinds of areas till they are at the level you may need. Then, when you do have an essential decision or perhaps discussion to build, you’ll be aware that you’re nonetheless able to rely on others to listen to you and to behave upon your decisions without error. Honesty is the best policy with regards to building trust in a romantic relationship, especially when you have got some sensitive topics that must be discussed in your way on the path to your partner.

Dubai: As the world recently observed the International Day of People with Disability, Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) said it has renewed its mission of making the city’s public transport system inclusive and accessible to everyone, particularly the people of determination.
“The RTA is keen to make its entire projects, facilities, services and mass transit means friendly to the People of Determination,” the RTA told Gulf News, adding: “This commitment is in line with the provisions of the Federal Law No. 29 of 2006 regarding the rights of people of determination. It also concurs with the government’s initiative to make Dubai a friendly city for people of determination.”
The RTA enumerated the projects it has rolled out over the years in line with government’s initiative called My Community ... A City for Everyone — aimed at transforming entire Dubai into a friendly city for people of determination.
Exclusive nol cards are issued to people of determination and they from fares in public buses, metro, tram and the water bus. The nol card itself is Braille-designed to enable those visually impaired to differentiate it from their other cards. The RTA also offered people of determination free rides on Dubai Ferry on the newly-launched service between Dubai and Sharjah.
Metro stations and cabins are fitted with tactile floors for guiding and informing individuals with audiovisual challenges. Lifts and escalators are powered with sound and optical systems while 1,500 public buses have hydraulic system to enable drivers to lower the level of the bus to reduce the space to the sidewalk so that people of determination with mobility issues, such as limping, can easily board buses.
The RTA has also provided directional signs in Braille leading to toilets and counters for those with mobility challenges. It also provided audio enhancements fitted with microphones for reception staff to improve the communication with individuals with hearing challenges. There are electric wheelchairs recharging stations at Jebel Ali, Deira, Hatta and Al-Qusais bus stations while some offices have been upgraded following the standards of the Dubai Universal Design Code for People of Determination.
Other services offered to the people of determination include exemption of one vehicle from Salik toll. The RTA also exempted people of determination from registration and renewal fees of one vehicle per person under this category. In public car parks, the RTA allocated four spaces per 1,000 parking slots for free to the people of determination in several key places. It also issued people of determination with permanent three-year parking permit, one-year temporary parking permit, and three-month tourist parking permit.
The RTA Foundation offers wheelchairs based on entitlement certificate issued by the Dubai Health Authority. It has also rolled out the Dubai Audio Library initiative in cooperation with Bookshare to provide equal educational opportunities for individuals facing visual challenges such as blindness, low vision, dyslexia, and others. The library provides access to a wide range of e-books. The RTA’s website has also been redeveloped to provide text in different font sizes for those with vision problems.
Employment for people of determination
The RTA has far employed 34 people of determination (eight females and 26 males). It has also carried out 66 training courses involving 459 training hours to improve the skills of people of determination.
The RTA also signed an agreement with the Dubai Club for People of Determination for sponsoring four athletes. It also sponsored the Artificial Intelligence Class at Rashid Centre for People of Determination.
The RTA is committed to the Protection Against Discrimination Law as provided for in Law No 2 of 2014 concerning the Protection of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in the Emirate of Dubai, and the Law No (8) of 2018 concerning the Management of the Government of Dubai Human Resources. The people of determination feature high in RTA’s operations and services in the context of implementing the directives of Dubai Government to make Dubai a friendly city for people of determination.
RTA initiatives for people of determination:
Four free parking spaces for every 1,000 car parks.
Exemption from public transport fare.
Introducing Braille version nol card.
Upgrading the website to serve the needs of various visual challenges.
Exemption from Salik toll.
Exemption from vehicle and driver licensing fees.
Employing 34 individuals of People of Determination at RTA.
Completing the initial phase of the Dubai Code for People of Determination.
Free temporary and permanent parking permits.
Free registration and renewal of one vehicle.
50 per cent discount on drivers licensing fees.
Reserving seats for people of determination on marine transport modes.
Audio-visual equipment at Metro stations and cars.
Tactile floor, signs for people who are visually challenged.
Fitting elevators and escalators with sound and optical systems.
Equipping public buses to ease boarding and alighting of passengers.
Directional signs in Braille language.
Electric wheelchair charging stations.
Free wheelchair every month.
Arabic audio library.

And finally, this evening: San Ignacio/Santa Elena Town Mayor Earl Trapp, Jr. has announced his council’s decision to install what are called vectors as a safety measure on Buena Vista Hill in the municipality. Considered one of the steepest hills in the town, Buena Vista Hill was where Herman Valdez, a town council employee died in a traffic incident. Since his tragic demise, the council is trying to avoid a repeat occurrence. Mayor Trapp told Love News that while turning the area into a one-way street was an initial knee-jerk reaction, he believes the vectors can help.
The Mayor stressed that he will not turn the area into a one-way street because it would affect business activity in the area. We will have more from our discussion with the Mayor in tomorrow’s news.

Power rankings are out and again, we are bit mystified. It's not about the Nets rankings, which run the gamut from No. 5 to No. 14. It's that about half the rankers put the Pacers ahead of the Nets while lamenting the Pacers' free fall ... and noting things like Kevin Garnett is back and so is Andrei Kirilenko.
If these are supposed to be cumulative rankings, there's a name for that: they're called standings. Our feeling has always been its about the trend line or the week's work, which for the Nets wasn't bad. They would have been a perfect 4-0 if it weren't for that unfortunate trip to Midtown Manhattan. That hurt in the eyes of some rankers.
John Schuhmann, NBA.com (11)
The returns of Kevin Garnett and Andrei Kirilenko should stabilize the Nets' defense that has ranked 21st (worst among playoff teams) over the last four weeks. They're pretty locked into the 5 seed, giving Jason Kidd freedom to keep his vets fresh. He's already been doing that, leaving Joe Johnson and Paul Pierce on the bench for the entire fourth quarter of a close game in Philly on Saturday.
Marc Stein, ESPN (14)
The Nets are the first team since Sacramento way back in 1985-86 to make the playoffs despite sitting 10+ games below. 500 on Dec. 31. Hard to believe when you remember Shaun Livingston and Mason Plumlee became starters thanks to all the time missed by Brook Lopez, Andrei Kirilenko and Kevin Garnett.
Marc J. Spears, Yahoo! Sports (14)
Kevin Garnett returned Saturday in a win over Philadelphia after missing 19 straight games with back spasms.

The Nets will go for a season sweep of the Heat on Tuesday in Miami.

Kevin Garnett could return this week and along with Andrei Kirilenko that should help a Nets defense that has been a mess of late. Like against the Knicks last week. They are likely the five seed and if they face Toronto in the first round they could advance to the second round, which is the least you could ask considering what Prokhorov is paying for this.
Matt Moore, CBS Sports (7)
Losing to the Knicks shouldn't hurt you this much at this point, but losing like that to the Knicks? Back-to-back ... but like that?
Jimmy Spencer, FOX Sports (7)
No more disrespecting the Nets here. They’re the hottest team in the East, and own a 30-12 record since Jan. 1. When it comes to the postseason, recent record is far more important than what happened in November. It’s not as if Indy and Miami looks any scarier right now.
Tim Bontemps, New York Post (5)
Yes, the Nets were blown out by the Knicks, but they have won four of five and get a chance to sweep the Heat this season Tuesday in Miami.
Mitch Lawrence, New York Daily News (14)
Assuming he's just had back spasms and nothing more as he's missed the Nets' last 18 straight games, you've got to think that Kevin Garnett needs to play in at least three or four to get ready for the playoffs, right?
Alex Kennedy, Basketball Insiders (11)
On Tuesday, the Nets will have a chance to pull off a sweep against the HEAT. They appear locked in as the No. 5 seed and would probably face the HEAT in the second round if the Nets managed to get past their first round opponent. We’ll certainly be keeping our fingers crossed. Last Week: 3-1.
Matt Dollinger, Sports Illustrated (11)
Kevin Garnett, 37, looked solid in his first action in more than five weeks, scoring 10 points (5-of-6 shooting) and grabbing four rebounds in 13 minutes in Saturday's win over Philadelphia. With KG back in the starting lineup, the once-depleted Nets now look surprisingly deep heading into the playoffs.
Adi Joseph et al, USA Today (14)
Shaun Livingston, in the process of a career revival and perhaps his best season.
Eric Goldschein, SportsGrid (13)
They have a chance to be the first team to sweep the Heat in Miami's Big Three era.

The Nets went 14-5 without K.G., and now get him back just in time for the playoffs. Otherwise known as "The Part of the Year Where You Really Want K.G.."


First of all I am new to the herp hobby so please go easy on me, I don't know everything. I recently got my first python and chose to turn an empty marine fish tank into a display enclosure. Ive taken photos throughout steps of modifications I made to get the set up to where I wanted it to be. Ive done a bit of reading on here and I would like criticism on some of the things I chose to do, namely it being a fish tank and second, the substrate. I really wanted desert sand for the natural look (and because I have a bredli) and to be honest none of the other options are very natural.. anyway there is little open coverage and my python spends most of its time on obstacles and the spots I provided. Now as I said before, I chose a fish tank because this is for display, but is the reason people dont like to use them due to the occupant may get stressed with movement etc outside the glass? I think I found a solution to that with this tank and so far it seems to work well. The main thing I liked about this tank is that it had an open air filtration system and with all the filters and stuff removed provided a perfect hiding chamber for the snake, so it can get away from the main enclosure. (below: left hole is now plugged, entrance is the middle hole). Just to note, I thoroughly cleaned the lid pieces after these photos. There are two entrances to the filterbox shown by the arrows. And for now this is the basic idea I had for the set up: Added a backboard, which I had to modify a little bit to fit the tank: Fake plants were added: And the substrate and some rocks: The vine didnt look right obviously so I fixed that, strengthening the main entrance to the upper chamber For ventilation I made this piece out of clear PVC for the holes of the light unit (the lid for the aquarium is in two parts): The simplest thing I could think of to secure this piece was nuts and bolts and it works perfectly. Also I had overshot my budget so no money left for fancy mechanisms haha The ventilation piece slides back with just a bit of line there to pull it back. This photo shows the two-piece lid with the hide (filter box) on the left and the light unit on the right. I cut another piece of PVC to fill the gap between the two units so they sit securely. The blutack was replaced by superglue: To lock the filterbox lid I just used these things I had lying around. They are used for keychains. You push down on the slender bit and it unlocks it so you can open the lid: Filled the chamber with Carefresh: So here is the final product: Added the waterbowl. There is another hide in the left corner. The snake doensn't use it very often because it has the superior filterbox but it likes to curl up on top of the flat rock above the hide. There is another flat rock behind the log in the right corner so really the only substrate space that is what you see in the front. Mainly it likes to hang around on the log and vines though. The best thing about this is that it likes to do its poos on the carefresh . Spends most of its time there and the box provides me easy access to my snake so all in all this set up works perfectly for me. and the occupant To anyone who bothered to read all this thanks! and I appreciate any comments and suggestions. Also any questions welcome because I didnt cover every aspect of the set up.

Looking for a Portrait Artist that is willing to take on an unusual but fun project. I am looking to propose to my partner. Rather than have a photographer capture the moment, I would love for an artist to draw/paint it happening. As I know this will take several hours, I am hoping I can send photos of the two of us so the portrait can be started before the proposal happens. I would love to discuss this further with you and get an artists take on what’s the best way to go about this.

Animal Collective, Cat Power, Menomena And More
All Songs Considered hosts Bob Boilen and Robin Hilton are back from their 2012 World Tour, which is to say they visited Seattle and Portland, Ore. last week, and have returned with a batch of new songs and stories to share. On the west coast Bob and Robin hosted a couple of listening parties, where they played music for an audience, the audience got to rate the songs, then everyone talked about them, just like hardcore music fans. They were joined by Telekinesis frontman Michael Benjamin Lerner, KEXP DJ Kevin Cole, and Portlandia's Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armisen. On this week's show we hear some of the songs they played, including a heartrending new cut from rapper Macklemore called "Same Love," and the stunning title cut from Cat Power's new record, Sun.
Also on the show: A peek at Animal Collective's latest sonic adventures on the group's new album Centipede Hz; The Brooklyn-based duo Buke and Gase are back with an equally adventurous EP called Function Falls; We've got a gritty new song from Menomena, and composer and arranger Matthew E. White pays homage to early Randy Newman Americana on White's debut solo record, Big Inner.

The following is an excerpt from an editorial that appeared in the New York Times on Thursday:
The military-backed government that has ruled Egypt for the past five months is looking increasingly like the old dictatorship of Hosni Mubarak without Mubarak. In the name of crushing all resistance by the Muslim Brotherhood supporters of Mohammed Morsi, the democratically elected president ousted by the military in July, Egyptian authorities have now moved to ban most public protests and threaten those who take part in them with jail or heavy fines.
Egypt’s military strongman, Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, owes his present power to such protests. Military leaders mostly stood aside in January 2011 when weeks of protest and sit-in vigils at Tahrir Square in Cairo forced Mubarak to resign. More recently, el-Sissi approvingly cited even larger street protests against Morsi as his main justification for the July 3 military coup. And after that coup, he himself summoned millions of Egyptians into the streets to give advance approval to his violent crackdown on Morsi supporters.
But from now on, it seems, only public demonstrations that support el-Sissi and his allies will be tolerated. A new law promulgated by the figurehead interim president, Adly Mansour, requires all gatherings of more than 10 people to seek advance government approval. It bans overnight sit-ins (like Tahrir Square) and protests at places of worship. Political groups across the spectrum have staged their protests following the end of Friday prayers. The new restrictions also give security forces the right to ban political campaign meetings, a provision that could be used to silence criticism of the Constitution scheduled to be voted on in January.
The Egyptian regime claims that the only opposition to its increasingly repressive rule comes from Muslim Brotherhood die-hards. That has never been the case. Opposition from the secular left, much of which welcomed Morsi’s downfall, is growing. On Tuesday, riot police beat and harassed a gathering of some of Egypt’s best-known human rights activists challenging the new ban on unauthorized demonstrations.
Amid these alarming developments, Washington has struggled to find an effective policy response. The Obama administration
has apparently made the calculation that it needs the support of el-Sissi and the Egyptian military for its regional security strategy, just as it long believed that it needed Mubarak. Washington should not let itself get taken in by the Egyptian regime’s assurances that its repressive practices are necessary to bring democracy and or maintain stability. Egypt may well be doomed to repeat the mistakes of the Mubarak era, but American policy need not be.

Choosing the right choke tube is important for accurate shotgunning. You will want to match the choke tube with the size of the bird you are hunting. The most common shotguns use a 12 or 20 gauge, and these tubes will screw into the barrel of the gun. There are also other gauges available, including a 10 gauge.
The choke regulates how much constriction is on the end of the barrel and this, in turn, changes how tight or open the shot spread will be. The three common types of chokes are full, modified, and improved cylinders. Each one has a different effect on how tight or opens the spread will be when fired from your shotgun.
To install a shotgun choke, first make sure the gun is unloaded. Next, locate the choke tubes on the barrel of the gun. There will be threads on the inside of the tube and the outside of the barrel.
Screw the choke tube into the barrel clockwise until it is hand-tight. Be careful not to over-tighten as this can damage the threads. Once it is tight, test it by opening and closing the action of the gun to make sure it is secure.
Choke tubes are a great way to improve your accuracy when shotgunning, and they are relatively easy to install once you know what you are doing. Just make sure to choose the right choke tube for your needs and be careful not to over-tighten it.
There are a few things you need to know before you start installing a shotgun choke:
- You need to identify the choke type that is compatible with your shotgun. There are three types of choke tubes full, modified, and improved cylinders.
- You’ll need to determine the barrel diameter of your shotgun. This information can usually be found on the manufacturer’s website or in the owner’s manual. Once you have this information, you can use it to select the appropriate choke tube size.
Now that you have the right choke tube and size, it’s time to get started. First, remove the barrel from your shotgun and locate the threads at the end of the barrel. The choke tube will have matching threads that will screw into the barrel.
Once you have found the threads, simply screw the choke tube into the barrel until it is hand-tight. Be careful not to overtighten the tube, as this can damage the threads or the choke itself.
Now that the choke tube is installed, you’re ready to start using your shotgun with greater accuracy and precision. Remember to practice safe gun handling at all times and always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
We also recommend that you watch a video on the subject of your question
There are a variety of choke tubes available on the market, and installing one is a relatively easy process.
The first step is to remove the barrel from the shotgun. Once the barrel has been removed, the choke tube can be inserted into the end of the barrel. There are a variety of wrenches that are designed to fit these tubes, and they can be purchased at most sporting goods stores.
Once the choke tube has been inserted into the barrel, it should be tightened into place with the wrench. Be sure to check that it is secure before replacing the barrel on the shotgun. It’s also important to note that not all choke tubes will work with every shotgun; so be sure to research which tube will work best with your firearm.
Choke tubes are a great way to change the pattern of your shotgun, and they can be very helpful in different hunting or shooting situations. Experiment with different tubes to find the one that works best for you.
Here is a general guide to installing shotgun choke tubes:
- Verify that your shotgun is unloaded and remove the barrel from the gun.
- Use a choke tube wrench to unscrew the old choke tube from the barrel. If you don’t have a wrench, you can use a sturdy pipe or socket wrench instead.
- Insert the new choke tube into the barrel and screw it in tightly with the wrench.
- Reassemble the gun and test the new choke tube by firing a few rounds through it.
If you’re still not sure which choke tube is right for you, consult with a qualified gunsmith or visit your local sporting goods store. They should be able to help you choose the best option for your needs.
To install a choke, you will first need to remove the barrel from the gun. Once the barrel is removed, you can unscrew the choke and replace it with another choke of a different size or type. Be sure to tighten the choke firmly so that it does not come loose while shooting.
Before fitting a new choke tube to your shotgun, it is important to read the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Different shotguns will require different techniques for fitting a new choke tube, and this must be done correctly to avoid any damage to the gun. Always make sure that the gun is unloaded before attempting to fit or remove a choke tube.

Full movie description "War Drums":Mexican girl Riva comes between two friends, Apache chief Mangas and trader Fargo, both of whom love the girl. She weds Mangas to the disappointment of Fargo and the dismay of Mangas's tribe. Fargo brokers peace between the Apache and the white settlers, but unscrupulous gold-hunters trigger war. It is up to Fargo to prevent a bloodbath.
Reviews of the War DrumsIt's not flamboyant enough to be "camp," but this movie still offers a number of those so-bad-it's-good moments. Most of these moments occur when the Indian characters have to spout such lines as: "A forked tongue is an evil thing." "The peace words of your people are written on the wind." "On a reservation an Apache warrior will be as an eagle with broken wings."
There's also a visually amusing moment when Lex Barker and Joan Taylor emerge from their teepee wearing his-and-her warrior outfits.
Looking past this hokiness, however, you'll find a briskly-told plot which differs a bit from the usual fare because it involves an Apache and a white man (Ben Johnson) in love with the same woman who's half-Mexican and half-Indian. Though most of the movie's Indians look a bit "Hollywood," they're treated in a sympathetic manner.
Lex Barker, as in his Tarzan days, spends most of the time bare-chested and his torso is shown to advantage in a scene where he's tied between two horses and whipped by some greedy prospectors. "Sign your name on his stinkin' hide," someone suggests, to which the flogger replies: "I would if I knew how to write!" (This flogging ranks 71st in the book, "Lash! The Hundred Great Scenes of Men Being Whipped in the Movies.")
Barker's no stranger to the whip, having taken some lashes in "Tarzan and the She-Devil" and, more notably, in "Terror of the Red Mask." Joan Taylor, laughably miscast, fitted much more comfortably into her most famous role, that of the heroine in "Earth vs. Flying Saucers."

I'm through saying that Nicole Kidman has the smallest baby bump in history!
Nic looked absolutely baby-licious on the red carpet of the Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas, as she accompanied her hubby, Keith Urban, to the big event.
Keith recently revealed to a Vegas radio station that he and Nic do know the baby's gender, but mum's the word.
"I'm not saying," he said of the kid, due this summer. "I'm glad we found out though, because it brought it home. I'm very excited about it."

According to the International Monetary Fund, India will be the large economy worst hit by the Covid-19 pandemic. The Fund now says that Indian GDP in the ongoing financial year, which began in March 2020, will contract by 4.5%. Just a few weeks ago, it had been predicting 2% growth for the year.
The IMF’s projection is by and large in line with estimates from investment banks and other international organizations. Indian officials have been reticent about their own estimates. This is not surprising: India’s economy has not contracted since 1979. For the government, this is uncharted territory.

Myers continued, “We are glad to know that an arrest has been made. As a community-driven and action-oriented organization, AP Inc. is an active participant in seeking justice for Ms. Booker.” His organization will, “effective immediately … institute the following plan of action and requests the support of the LBGTQ community and our allies.”

- meeting with Dallas County District Attorney John Creuzot and “demand this offense be treated in the most serious matter and that the charges be enhanced as a hate crime with all related penalties. We demand that Ms. Booker’s assailant(s) be brought to justice and be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
