Hayley Williams has had quite a year with the release of her debut solo album Petals For Armor and while regular concerts aren’t something she can do, she’s made the best of her available options. She’s linked up with NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk Concerts” for a quick and short set with Julien Baker, Becca Mancari and more joining her. […]

3 Easy Ways to Love Healthy Food Without Forcing Yourself
Apr 07, 2016 04:41 AM EDT | By Anita Valensia
According to the journal Pediatrics, vegetables like kale and broccoli tend to taste bitter for the first-timers. Late introduction to these healthy foods could result in being a picky eater. So, if you already feel the need to dip in the greens but aren't sure where to start, this is how you can love healthy foods without forcing yourself.
Block the bitter
There is a scientific answer behind why people love broccoli and cheese. The salty cheese aids to block your receptor to taste that strange flavor from broccolis. It goes the same way with coffee as many people would start drinking it with sweetener added, but eventually, they get familiar with the taste and end up having less sugar. Chemosensory Perception published a theory that sweeteners like sugar, blocks receptors from tasting that bitterness.
To make Brussels sprouts more delicious, try adding a pinch of salt and gradually decrease the amount along the way.
Feel good by pairing your healthy food with high-calorie ingredient
Our body is programmed to like foods that taste good. That explains why people love sweet salty foods and foods that are high in calories. When teaching yourself to swallow broccolis, you can add seasonings like olive oil, butter or cream cheese. This should go for a few days before the trick actually works.
The vegetables on the 21st plate will be tasty
Experts found that once an adult gets to eat a certain meal for a few days- even if they don't like it, their mind eventually says it's 'okay'. This means that when you consume a certain healthy food, let say, kales - in a long period of time, it produces the sense of 'tolerant' towards the bitter taste.
Jane Wardle, a professor at Health Behaviour Research Centre, UCL, London explains how the familiarity due to repeated tasting can increase the liking. Psychology Professor Elizabeth Phillip recommends eating a certain food on a regular basis. The trick has been applied to kids at the age of three that they started to like the food after taking for 20 times in a row.
There are so many ways we can experience exposure to harmful poisons, and in many cases, we may not realize it's happening. From household cleaners and similar products to children's toys, there are often toxins and poisonous products and ingredients lurking in even the most unsuspecting of places.
All pro level athletes know about the dedication needed to not just accomplish their goals, but to achieve even bigger targets in their lives. It's also a commonly known fact that fitness and exercise alone cannot get them there. Putting the right food into their bodies is equally important.
Asian nourishment all in all is substantially more sound than Western cooking. With the absence of dairy fat and added substances, alongside an emphasis on zingy season and crisp fixings, it's anything but difficult to discover solid alternatives on any Asian-propelled menu.

Traveling to new cities is always an exciting adventure. One of the best ways to see a city and try local food is by visiting famous night markets. Night markets are always bustling and full of locals and foreigners trying the delights.

The beautifully tinted, imaginatively shaped Ramune bottle, with a texture that evokes a certain feeling of warmth… Ramune has been a beloved cultural staple since the Meiji era (the mid 1800s) in Japan. Indeed, it is impossible not to feel a nostalgic charm for its unique appearance and flavor.
So what is “Ramune”?
Ramune is a carbonated drink that has a glass marble “plug” in the mouth of the bottle. Regarding questions concerning Ramune, in 1978, the (Fair Trade Commission) has released the following statement:
“A situation arising over the misunderstanding by the consumer regarding Ramune is unfavorable. Therefore, the name “Ramune” refers to a carbonated beverage filled in a bottle with a glass-marble plug (also known as a Codd-Neck Bottle). Nurtured into creation by the efforts of small businesses for nearly 150 years, one could say that Ramune is the pioneer of the Japanese soft drink.”

Chelsea will be looking to try and improve on their domestic season, trying to recapture their form of old, such as winning the Champions League in 2021.
Their current crop of players is a star-studded group, with unprecedented investment into the squad by owner Todd Boehly. Signings such as Enzo Fernandez, Wesley Fofana and Mykhailo Mudryk are a statement of intent to return to old form.
Mauricio Pochettino now takes charge at the Bridge, hoping he can be the first manager to lead the club to a trophy since Thomas Tuchel did so in 2021.
Hospitality at Stamford Bridge is one of the most sought after VIP Hospitality opportunities across the whole season, including fantastic views, complimentary food and drink and meeting Chelsea legends.
Where is Stamford Bridge?
Stamford Bridge is located in Fulham in West London, with a capacity of 41,000.
Stamford Bridge, Fulham Road, London, SW6 1HS
How do you get to Stamford Bridge?
Travelling by car to Stamford Bridge is advised against because of parking restrictions on matchdays.
Travelling by train is the best option to get to the ground. The nearest tube station is Fulham Broadway which is a 3 minute walk. This station is on the District Line.
West Brompton and Imperial Wharf are both overground stations which are a 15 minute walk from the station. These are both on a direct line from Clapham Junction.

Dr. George Demetri of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston talked specifically about GIST, and if you're interested, I encourage you to click on the Daily News link above. The other two doctors in the session talked about chemo in general for other subtypes.
Session Chair Ian Robert Judson, MD, of the Royal Marsden Hospital, United Kingdom, noted that questions arise about the appropriateness of adjuvant therapies because of several factors. Soft tissue sarcomas are rare diseases, he explained, and there are conflicting data on the efficacy of chemotherapy as well as variations in clinical practice regarding the standard treatment for these diseases. ...“We know that there are variations in response to these treatments among individuals, and unless we learn more about how to identify who is likely to benefit, we run the risk of administering a lot of unnecessary treatments with accompanying toxicity,” said Dr. Judson in an interview with ASCO Daily News.
He noted that the physician must take into account the individual patient’s level of risk tolerance, along with the best available evidence regarding the likelihood of benefit when deciding whether to initiate adjuvant therapy for these malignancies.Robert S. Benjamin, MD, of M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, reviewed recent literature regarding adjuvant chemotherapy for soft tissue sarcomas. He noted that the Sarcoma Meta-analysis Collaboration in 1997 found that doxorubicin-based chemotherapy improved time to local and distant recurrence and overall recurrence-free survival; however, there was not a significant improvement in overall survival.
After the 1997 study, ifosfamide was added to doxorubicin, and that improved survival a little, he noted. Since then, other drugs have been developed or tried with sarcoma. He criticized a 2007 study by the EORTC, saying it was not representative of a global, random population.
He recommends neoadjuvant chemo, if possible, because it lets the oncologist judge whether the tumor is reacting to the chemo. In regard to adjuvant chemo, he would like to see doctors give more of it for a longer period of time.
“I don’t put much stock in the argument that chemotherapy doesn’t work,” he said. “We know that, yes, it works and no, it doesn’t work nearly well enough. So we need to give more of it, not less. Stage III sarcomas are such a bad group of tumors that, even though we know the treatment is going to be awful for the patient, not treating them is ethically unacceptable.”
Dr. Benjamin suggested that clinicians should not approach adjuvant therapy for soft tissue sarcomas using the same rules for breast cancer therapies because of broad differences between the diseases.
He noted that breast cancer is more common and more homogeneous than sarcoma and therefore results in larger studies and more numerous therapies, whereas there are limited options for sarcoma.
An abstract from the French Sarcoma Group, presented at last month's ASCO, found little benefit for grade 2 patients, but improved survival for those with grade 3.

Japan marks on Thursday the 75th anniversary of the world’s first atomic bomb attack in Hiroshima, however, this year’s ceremonies were scaled back due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
On 6 August 1945, American warplanes dropped the first nuclear bomb ever used in a war, code-named Little Boy, above the Japanese city. Three days later a second nuclear bomb, code-named Fat Man, was dropped on Nagasaki.
The two atomic bombs killed between 129,000 and 226,000 people, most of them were civilians, and remain the only time a nuclear weapon was used in armed conflict.
However, the attendance was significantly reduced this year, only survivors and their families have been able to attend the memorial ceremonies, with chairs spaced apart and most attendees wearing masks due to COVID-19.
As Hiroshima is the first city in the world to suffer a nuclear attack, the park was built in memory of the bomb’s direct and indirect victims.
On this occasion, Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and the Mayor of Hiroshima joined bomb survivors and descendants in the city’s Peace Park.
The city said that due to the importance of this anniversary, it decided to conduct the ceremony despite the spread of the corunavirus, while keeping strict precautionary measures in place.
A moment of silence was held at 08:15 (Japan Time), the exact time the bomb was dropped on the city during the World War II.
Mayor of Hiroshima, Kazumi Matsui, said: “On 6 August 1945, a single atomic bomb destroyed our city. Rumor at the time had it that ‘Nothing will grow here for 75 years,” according to Reuters. “And yet, Hiroshima recovered, becoming a symbol of peace.”
“A subsequent upsurge in nationalism led to World War II and the atomic bombings. We must never allow this painful past to repeat itself. Civil society must reject self-centered nationalism and unite against all threats,” he added.
In a video message delivered to a peace memorial ceremony on Thursday in Japan, UN Secretary-General António Guterres has paid tribute to the victims of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, which devastated the city in 1945.
“Seventy-five years ago, a single nuclear weapon visited unspeakable death and destruction upon this city,” he said in his address.
Guterres added that Hiroshima and its people have chosen not to be characterised by calamity, but instead by “resilience, reconciliation, and hope.”
The UN chief asserted that the risk of nuclear weapons being used, intentionally, by accident or through miscalculation, is too high for such trends to continue, repeating his call for states to “return to a common vision and path leading to the total elimination of nuclear weapons.”


Fusion Processing has won a contract with the Welsh Government to help improve safety for motorcyclists. Fusion will adapt their CycleEye technology so it can be used at junctions to detect motorcycles approaching a junction and warn other motorists of their proximity so as to avoid a collision. Similar to CycleEye, the system combines radar and camera to reliably detect motorcyclists against a backdrop of clutter and other vehicles. Drivers waiting at, or approaching the junction are alerted to the motorcyclist’s proximity and speed via an electronic sign.

Well I say we indulge our wild side, and stay fresh on the heels of these Casanovas by astonishing our heartthrob with a whirlwind trip to one of Italy's most beautiful cities, Florence. Considered the birthplace of Renaissance and the capital of the Tuscany region of Italy, Florence (Firenza) is a must-see tourist destination for the romantic as well as the sophisticated traveler.
Florence is a diverse city... distinguished for its medieval culture as well as a multitude of museums, historical landmarks and stunning cathedrals. You can go just about anywhere in the Tuscany Region of Italy and bask in the scenic beauty and tranquil countryside.
Another quick heads up-- Book your travel ahead of schedule and through the official accredited Italian Rail website. Be advised, there are several imitation 'Euro Rail' websites that will gladly take your money as well as tack in an additional fee of $10 to $20 dollars in the process.
Keep in mind... over ninety percent of trains run on time, so be sure to arrive at the train depot at least 15 minutes before your departure. It is easy to get lost in the moment of taking in one more sight-seeing opportunity and push back your start time a costly couple of valuable hours.
When traveling throughout Europe, I generally chose a hotel for its location and skip all the 'hoity-toity...' Opting instead for a room that is clean, reasonably priced and centrally located. Let's not delude ourselves, after a full day of sight-seeing and marching up and down endless cobblestone streets when you get back to your room it is simply for rest and relaxation.
The Hotel Aldini's guest rooms are uncomplicated with a elegant Florentine-style touch, very quiet, and equipped with an in-suite bathroom. Rates include a continental breakfast, all taxes, and maid service for an average of €85 (Euro) per night.
Door of Paradise
One of the oldest building in Cathedral Square is the Baptistery of San Giovanni, renowned for its ten distinctive bronze quatrefoil sections depicting the life of John the Baptist. A top visitor attraction in Florence, The Baptistery is believed to have been constructed in the 5th or 6th century. This building was meant to last, with the rudimentary architectural design dating from the earliest ages of Christianity.
The relatively young (in terms of Florentine chronology) Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral is a paltry eight hundred years old and certainly celebrated as one of the most magnificent cathedrals in Europe. This impressive Gothic cathedral complex is known for its distinctive Renaissance dome, stunning frescos and ornate stained glass windows.
Fearless visitors can climb the 463 steps of the narrowing and spiral staircase to the top of the dome. The breath-taking vistas of Florence and the Tuscany countryside prove worthy of the effort... Not to mention witnessing an awe-inspiring view of the gothic fresco depicting 'Dante's Inferno,' from the slender terrace at the top of the dome..
Plan on paying an eight € (Euro) admission fee to ascend the cavernous stairwell.
Your charming, debonair host will give you a comprehensive understanding of the area's heritage, the local produce, and the Chianti wine-making process. Although only 20 miles from Florence, this Tuscany day trip has a fun, off the beaten track vibe, and is an excursion you won't soon forget--
Piazza Santa Maria Novella
However, be sure not to let the laid back nature of this grassy oasis fool you-- pick-pockets abound. Mark Twain once quipped, 'They examine passports on the Italian frontier for fear an honest man may slip in...' Although this certainly is a humorists point of view with the vast majority of Italians being fun loving and kind-hearted souls-- still don't let your guard down and let a petty thief spoil your enchanting vacation wherever you may roam.
Trattoria al Trebbio
Feel yourself begin to unwind once you walk through the doors of this welcoming and friendly Italian restaurant . Trattoria al Trebbio is an unforgettable experience of authentic Italian cooking... serving up the finest traditional dishes of Florence. Delight in award-winning cuisine and savor mouth-watering Italian specialties prepared daily for your dining pleasure. Experience the bona-fide joy of great pasta intermingled with an ideal bottle of Chianti wine.
The Trattoria al Trebbio offers a complete range of vino from all over Tuscany and Italy. Also, save room for the homemade dessert fare that is presented nostalgically on a push cart.

Generic: Kiwi fruit
treats Respiratory problems and Energy enhancement
CategoryHerbs & Supplements
Actinidia arguta, Actinidia chinensis L., Actinidia coriacea, Actinidia kolomikta, Actinidia melanandra, Actinidia polygama, Actinidia purpurea, Actinidia sinensis planch (ASP), Actinidiaceae, actinidin, Chinese egg gooseberry, China gooseberry, Chinese gooseberry, diethyl succinate, goat peach, hairy pear, hardy kiwi, hexyl hexanoate, kivi, kiivi, kiwi fruit, macaque peach, nonanal, octane, profilin, purple kiwi, red kiwi, silver vine, thiol- proteases, yang- tao.
The kiwi fruit initially comes from China, but is now produced in New Zealand, the United States, Italy, South Africa and Chile.
Kiwi is rich in vitamins C and E, serotonin and potassium and is purported to have antioxidant activity. Kiwi fruit is also known to have the highest density of vitamin C for any fruit, and is low in fat with no cholesterol. Claimed benefits of kiwi fruit, however, may be overshadowed by the growing number of reports of allergy.
Kiwi has been used preventatively to protect against respiratory illness, increase lung function and increase cardiovascular (heart) health.
Currently, there are no well- designed clinical trials regarding the efficacy of kiwi fruit; however, additional research may be warranted to investigate its use in prevention of respiratory conditions and in energy enhancement.
EvidenceDISCLAIMER: These uses have been tested in humans or animals. Safety and effectiveness have not always been proven. Some of these conditions are potentially serious, and should be evaluated by a qualified healthcare provider.
One study suggests that a kiwi- containing drink has beneficial effects on athletic performance. However, methodological weaknesses in this study preclude making any firm conclusions regarding kiwi's effectiveness at this time.
Respiratory problems (prevention):
Currently data on the therapeutic benefit of kiwi as a preventative for lung conditions is lacking. One survey study suggests that kiwi and other fruits high in vitamin C may have a protective effect on lung conditions in children, especially wheezing. However, properly controlled studies are lacking at this time. More research is warranted before a recommendation can be made.

Skin disease is typically hard to hide and is often unrecognized by the community around you. Many times people stare, sometimes they make judgments: “why would that mama let her child get so sunburned?” “Why don’t they do something about that sore?” “My kid better not catch anything from her".
Like it or not, in our incredibly visual culture, our appearance impacts how the people around us interact. For children and teenagers who are doing the psychosocial work of developing identity and self-reliance, having a visible difference from their peers can be challenging. They often face uncomfortable and unwelcome questions about their appearance. While skin typical peers question their beauty, worth, and value, children and teens with skin disease are doing all of this while trying to reckon their differences with cultural beauty standards.
We provide opportunities for emotional support for families in a variety of ways. On staff, we have a Certified Child Life Specialist to help families develop strategies on coping with their skin disease using a variety of therapeutic play and educational methods to support positive emotional coping.
We have opportunities for mentorship between parents and children who are new to the current challenges of their diagnosis with families who have been there and have wisdom and support to offer. We partner with field experts such as child psychologists, special educators, and youth development specialists. This enables us to provide a wealth of educational resources for families. At each of our events, we utilize some form of play or recreation (art, dance, music, bubbles) to encourage the identification of emotions and self-expression.
Children, teenagers, and families of all religions, beliefs, and creeds are welcomed with open arms at A Children’s House. There is medical evidence that supports the power of prayer in healing. A Children’s House for the Soul believes that prayer and spiritual support has a positive impact on the lives of the children and families we serve.
We work very hard to make sure that everyone regardless of their beliefs feels supported and loved, and has equal access to the work we do at A Children’s House. We do believe that we were lead by God to do this work, and we also believe that God enables us through His might to support ALL children and families impacted by skin disease every day.
This is an area that is very dear to our hearts and is going through varying levels of development. Future initiatives for spiritual support include:
- Prayer groups both online and in-person
- Referrals for chaplains and other clergy
- Devotional and Bible studies
- Prayer partners available at events for support
- An online catalog of resources for those interested in spiritual support

New Delhi: Actor Hrithik Roshan, who is all set to emulate Indian mathematician Anand Kumar in his upcoming film 'Super 30', took to his social media to congratulate Anand's team for cracking IIT-JEE this time too.
Twenty-six out of thirty students from Super-30 coaching institute by Anand Kumar passed the engineering entrance exams with flying colours.
Congratulating Anand, Hrithik Roshan aka on screen Anand Kumar posted a picture and captioned it, "Congratulations to all of you. Anand Sir you have done it again. Making the world better one student at a time. #Super30 @teacheranand".
— Hrithik Roshan (@iHrithik) June 10, 2018
In 'Super 30', Hrithik will portray the character of a mathematician Anand Kumar, who trains 30 meritorious students from the economically backward society for the IIT entrance exam. This is for the first time that the actor will be seen playing a teacher on the big screens.
Directed by Vikas Bahl of the Queen fame, 'Super 30' will be jointly produced by Reliance Entertainment and Nadiadwala and Grandson Entertainment.
Hrithik and Anand had met about a few months ago to discuss the project. Anand, who was mighty impressed by Hrithik’s hospitality, took to Facebook to write: “Just returned to Patna from Mumbai. But really I can't forget my meeting yesterday with Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan. The way he invited me to his house and gave me the honour really showed that he is not just a great artist but also a great human being. Thanks, Hrithik Ji, thanks a lot (sic).”
Roshan hasn’t had a great time at the Box Office since Bang Bang in 2014. His release in 2016 – Mohenjo Daro – proved to be a disaster at the Box Office but Kaabil, his home production, which released early last year, did decent business.
He has been roped in by Yash Raj Films for an out-and-out action film co-starring Tiger Shroff and Vaani Kapoor. But it will be interesting to see Hrithik in a biopic for the first time. We can’t wait for Super 30 to release on November 23, 2018.

A review by Robert Coffil
A year ago, had you told me the book I would be the saddest about ending being DC Comics publication of Hannah-Barbera’s property The Flintstones, I would have laughed in your face. Yet here we are, on the twelfth and final issue of Mark Russell and Steve Pugh’s amazing run, and I don’t want this book to be over.
First off, a big shout out to Steve Pugh. I think he has done all 12 issues of this run. In an era of double shipping and artists being rotated off books or artists simply not being able to do more than eight issues in 12 months, Steve Pugh has hit the mark every single month with this book and never has the quality dipped. His style has, character design and panel layout have been a hallmark of this book.
Mark Russel has come out of, what seems, like thin air and made an indelible mark on the industry with this book. Sure, he did Prez before this, but I don’t feel like that made quite the impression this did. With The Flintstones, he took a property that could have gotten away with being silly and goofy and elevated the entire medium. He made the animal workers a proletariat working class with musings on the nature of life and purpose. Russel laid out a mayoral race that was unerringly like the United States election. And finally, a Carl Sagan analog, who is outright one of the funniest characters, while providing some unexpected sage advice.
Issue 12 of The Flintstones continues what has undoubtedly been one of the best comedic/satirical comics ever published. Gazoo, the alien from Las Vega, who has been the zoo keeper of sorts for the humans on earth, provides some commentary on the nature of human beings and the scary path they could potentially be on. In a metaphor, he compares the state of human development to an infant going through their “terrible twos”. It is really a great comparison that I would only sully by putting in this review, so I urge you to grab the issue so you can see it.
In this issue, Russel and Pugh really do an amazing job of touch every major storyline that has been going on through the 12 issues. We touch on the animals who do the labor throughout the series, we see some of the comedic news reporting, and it even touches on boss Slate’s insecurity while continuing the storyline of his wife divorcing him for someone more powerful (the mayor whose mayor is in title only). It really is some deft handling of plot.
Must Buy! In an era of comics where there really is such quality on display week in and week out, this book has done an amazing job distinguishing itself. I have been impressed with every single issue. It does a wonderful job of telling a story, being about something and providing wonderful entertainment. I cannot endorse this issue enough. Mark Russell will return with Snagglepuss and you can bet I am here for it.

Gaviria takes stage 1 of the Vuelta a San Juan; Nibali’s new programme emerges following DNS in San Juan; ‘A plate holding my eye in place:’ Stewart has delicate operation after Tour Down Under crash; TDU winner Impey to lead Mitchelton-Scott in Cadel Evans race, Chaves to make 2018 debut; Strong fields for the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Races and Towards Zero Race Melbourne; Opinion: Why time bonuses are crucial to the balance of the Tour Down Under; Video: This is Cycling; Video: Cormet de Roselend via Col du Pré – Cycling Inspiration & Education
Had things gone to plan, Vincenzo Nibali would have got his season underway on Sunday in the Tour de San Juan. However stomach problems and fever ruled him out of the event, meaning that he will now need to wait until February 13 to begin racing. He will begin the Tour of Oman then, a race he won in 2016.
He will then head back to Europe with his eyes on three Classics, namely Milan-San Remo, the Tour of Flanders and Liège-Bastogne-Liège. “I still have to decide whether or not I’m going to Paris-Nice,” he said, according to Cyclingpro. “But I will not miss the Classicissima [San Remo]. I’d be happy to improve my best result, third place in 2012.”
Nibali had a strong season in 2017, netting a stage win plus third overall in the Giro d’Italia, a stage and second overall in the Vuelta a Espana, and also landing victories in Il Lombardia and the Tour of Croatia.
He might yet be named the winner of the Vuelta a Espana after Chris Froome was shown to have twice the permitted maximum amount of salbutamol in his system during the race. The Briton and his Team Sky squad are fighting the case, but he could be stripped of his Vuelta title and also incur a suspension.
Nibali has already indicated that he will focus on the Tour de France this season. He also wants to shine in the world championships.

Before I knew anything else about what to see in Munich I had the Eisbach on top of my list. You probably think “Why is a little stream so interesting?” Well, since I’m a huge sport enthusiast I know about the Eisbach surfers and really wanted to see them live. Just past the bridge near the Haus der Kunst, the river forms a standing wave about 1 metre high. This makes the perfect surfing wave and therefore attracts quite a few of them. However it is also a really dangerous spot and only experienced surfers should take a ride here. We headed there directly on the first day we arrived since the weather was fantastic and there would actually be some surfers around to watch. When we got there the place was packed with people who also admired the guys on their boards. I could have stayed for ages and just watch them. Now I want to learn surfing even more desperately.
Last weekend I headed to Munich for a short get-away with my best friend. I have never been to Munich before but many people already told me that it is a lovely city for a weekend trip. We booked our flights at the beginning of April this year with AirBerlin and paid about € 110 both ways per person. When the airline announced their bankruptcy a few days before our flights we were a little scared that everything would be canceled but luckily this was not the case. We left early on Friday morning and came back on Sunday evening. Our first day was amazing. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed the typical Bavarian way of living: beer at the Viktualienmarkt, coffee in the Englischer Garten and Knödel at a stylish Bavarian inspired restaurant (will post a guide on that soon). On Saturday the weather was a little unstable. Therefore we decided to head to the museum. Since I studied Art History here in Berlin as my bachelor program, I already knew a little …
One thing is for sure: Toronto is a coffee-loving city and we are more than happy about it! One of my favorite coffee spots is Dineen, located downtown in the financial district. I love the cafe’s distinct interior – it is both cozy and very sophisticated. I also appreciate the nice “milk bar”, just a table with different sorts of milk and sugar but arranged in a super lovely way with some flowers and silver covers for the milk cartons. During the week the place will probably always be crowded but still you’ll get your coffee outright.

Lyon is a city full of French charm, zest for life and romance. It can offer everything you need for a perfect city trip: culture, culinary experiences and style. Like in many French cities you may observe the French women’s impeccable style while you stroll through the beautiful streets paved with small boutiques and cafés. The church on top of the hill offers an incredible view over the whole city, afterwards you can take a walk down through the massive park and end up in an artisan ice cream store trying one of 70 different flavors.

A great starter hike for anyone. Little effort gets you great reward to this newly restored fire tower.
Located along the gravel Big Moose Road most of the parking here is along the sides of the road. Though there is a small lot it only hold two vehicles.
At the trail head you will see a small set of steps and sign "Stillwater Fire Tower Trail". You can begin here by following the blue discs. Shortly you will cross a small footbridge. Continuing on the trail will become wide and appears to be and old jeep road.
The tower was very recently restored and the official reopen was 7/2/16. It allows for 360 views. Views include the Stillwater Reservoir below, the wind turbine farm on the Tug Hil Plateau, and many surrounding Adirondack peaks.
Only 2.5 miles away at the launch area for the Stillwater Reservoir are public restrooms, store, gasoline, restaurant, lodge and more.

iPhone SE looks very much similar to the iPhone 8 but has the features of iPhone 11 and in a budget. Isn’t that just magnificent?
iphone SE in April 2020 uncovered an amazing failure cost iPhone, the iPhone SE, which is a follow-up to the 2016 iPhone SE of a similar name. Like its forerunner, the 2020 iPhone SE is Apple’s most moderate iphone SE Specification at this Price, evaluated beginning at $399.
Not at all like the first iPhone SE, which looked like an iPhone 5, the 2020 iPhone SE is indistinguishable from the iPhone 8 with regards to the plan. It has a 4.7-inch Retina HD LCD display with True Tone to coordinate the surrounding lighting in a room, Wide colour, Dolby Vision, and HDR10.
Accessible in black, white and (PRODUCT)RED, the iPhone SE(2nd_generation) is worked with a glass front and back with a colour-coordinated aluminium band. Wireless charging is upheld and it features IP67 water and dust obstruction so it will hold up to sprinkles and even short submersions in water.
Because the iphone SE Specification and features is genuinely indistinguishable from an iPhone 8, it keeps on highlighting thick top and base bezels. The top bezel houses the 7-megapixel forward-looking camera and microphone while the base bezel incorporates a Touch ID Home button for fingerprint-based biometric validation.
The new iphone se price in india is the main iPhone in Apple’s present lineup that keeps on highlighting Touch ID over Face ID. Like different iPhones, it uses Haptic Touch for Quick Actions and contextual menus, with 3D Touch presently wiped out from the iPhone lineup.
We should have a superior gander at the features of the new iPhone SE.

LORAIN — Dan Ramos suspended his campaign for Lorain’s mayor Friday, citing a process that turned into a “circus.”
After an obscure law made five Democratic candidates ineligible to appear on the November ballot to be considered for mayor, Ramos was the last candidate standing before two others tossed their hat in the ring.
Ramos said in a statement that the Lorain Democratic Party failed to make the process public, waited too long to determine ineligibility and that it “brought out the worst in many of us.”
After candidates were aware that they would not be able to run for the mayoral seat, “accusations of ‘good old boy’ control, and rigged conspiracy theories abounded,” he said.
Ramos told The Chronicle-Telegram that he announced his run for mayor because he wanted to serve, but that the accusations will make it hard for any new mayor to do their job.
For that reason, Ramos said he didn’t want to run if he wouldn’t be able to govern as mayor due to the accusations.
The selection process for the interim mayor by the Lorain City Democratic Central Committee on Sunday will determine who will fulfill the rest of former Mayor Chase Ritenauer’s term. Ramos said he would not attend it and will suspend all campaign activity.
Ramos said that he is not running for any political seat, and that he’s a private citizen.
“At this point, I’m not planning on resuming any campaign,” he said.
The same panel will decide whose name will replace Ritenauer on the November ballot as he won in the May primary. After the five candidates were rule ineligible, two others — attorney Jack Bradley and former UAW leader Jerry Donovan — announced they would seek to be on the ballot.
Donovan doesn’t actually want to be mayor, he said. Rather, he would take the seat, resign and let the appointment process start again without the ineligibility issues that arose and knocked his daughter, Councilwoman at-large Mary Donovan Springowski, out of the running because she appeared on the primary ballot for her Council seat.
“This is not a popularity contest, and we are not choosing a Homecoming Court,” Ramos said. “We are choosing a mayor. This process simply has not been conducted with the gravity the situation requires.”
Ramos advised the party to not vote right away, but instead have a discussion Sunday and determine the candidate that “everyone can agree on.” He said the Democratic Party should come out in one voice and support whoever that candidate is.
“A divided party will make it harder to win, and harder to govern if we do,” he said.
As for what happens next, Ramos said he doesn’t know what the outcome will be. He said he wants to see his city do well.
“I hope the Democratic Party and selection committee takes a good, hard look at this,” he said.

The city is hoping to expand their traffic signal coordination project this year which will ease traffic flow on the city’s busiest roads.
City council is considering hiring Can-Traffic Services Ltd. to work on the traffic signal and coordination on 50 Avenue (Highway 17). City administration is proposing to sole source award the contract to Can-Traffic Services as they already have experience working with the city and the traffic signal system. Can-Traffic Services previously worked on the signal system on 44 Street (Highway 16) in 2019.
The contractor will install all the necessary hardware on 50 Avenue including cabinets, controllers, detection cameras, cellular modems and other pieces of equipment.
Mayor Gerald Aalbers says there are many benefits to continue working with the same company who implemented the system last year. The project was approved in the 2020 budget at a cost of $425,000, but city staff believe by working with the same contractor it will provide the city with some savings.
“We bought the software program that runs the brains of the operation. It’s been acquired and we don’t have to buy additional equipment. I think that’s where you see cost savings. Having standardization across the board of equipment is important. Can-Traffic is one of our providers currently and they’ve worked in the city for a number of years.”
He adds the city also has an existing service contract with Can-Traffic which will cover any maintenance needs for the project.
Aalbers expects the upgrades to be done on a shorter timeline than the previous signal upgrades as both the city and the contractors now have experience with the system.
“Now that we’ve got the bulk of the software in place and we know where we’re headed, so I think it’ll be a shorter timeline. We did run into a few IT issues. When you add a new computer system, the computers don’t always agree 100 per cent and we worked through that.”
If the city were to hire another company, they would either have to implement another system which could result in many problems or have the other company require to learn the new system.
City council will make a decision on the matter at a future council meeting.

If there’s one thing we want to know about COVID-19, it’s probably this: What’s my risk of getting it?
Researchers have identified certain things that make some people more vulnerable than others. Men are at greater risk than women. Older people are at greater risk than younger people. Those with chronic health problems like Type 2 diabetes, obesity and serious heart conditions are faring worse than those without them. Black and Latino Americans are at greater risk than Asian Americans and whites.
Now there’s evidence that blood type could be a risk factor too.
A handful of studies have suggested that people with some blood types are more likely to be hospitalized with COVID-19, while those with other blood types are less likely to require that level of care. The most recent evidence was published last month in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Said Cllr Harkin: “Council workers rightly overwhelmingly rejected a government pay offer that amounted to a real terms pay cut and are rightly balloting for strike action.
The pathetic offer was yet another slap in the face for frontline workers.
“Council’s in England have lost frontline HGV drivers to private transportation companies offering higher rates of pay.
“This has put tremendous pressure on local service delivery and has meant rubbish isn’t collected in some instances. I’ve spoken to local Council HGV drivers and they are being made similar offers. The solution is better pay and conditions.
“Trade unions representing Council workers carried out consultative ballots on the 1.75% pay offer and it was angrily and overwhelmingly rejected.
“This should come as no surprise. The real value of Council workers pay has declined nearly 25% since 2010. Inflation is running at nearly 4% and new taxes will disproportionately burden workers and the least well-off.
“Balloting for strike action and preparing for strike action is the only way to make it clear it’s time for a substantial pay increase. We are encouraging everyone to back the united trade union demand for a 10% pay increase.
“Previously, the Derry and Strabane Council unanimously backed a People Before Profit motion committing the body to pledge its full support for the 10% demand. Council workers and trade unions should make sure all the Executive parties who voted for this are held to it.
“Workers, whether they’re in the public, private or community sectors, should no longer accept paltry treatment when billionaires are holding champagne parties to celebrate the vast new fortunes they made sitting on their yachts during the pandemic.”


1st impressions. Took 2-100 mile A-B gps ifr flight plan hops. Like the Duke, the turbine puts the same amount of strain on my system. Activesky was really active with alot of storms,low clouds which did not help. 15-20 fps but smooth. The only real world planes I have any amount of time in are the Kingairs,Conquest and Mu-2s. When simming I am not a fly by the numbers kinda guy, its a break from reality for me, but everything felt right and reacted as one would expect it to. Thats really what counts imo. Like most turbines in FSX the most exciting operational phase is ground ops. While both feet were on the brakes "I thought" with Trackir I was looking down learning whats is where. I glance up and was a good 1/4 mile at the other end of the airport getting ready to cross the fence and go off roading. Thing needs a anchor to hold it down.
Sounds are great. The Duke is a good turbine challenge and will teach how to stay ahead of the power curve. Climbs like a BOOH but just do not get behind on that power and keep a eye on that airspeed especially when your setting up for landing.

A series of billboards celebrating the University’s 50th anniversary are part of an awareness campaign to involve the local community in September’s events, says Holly Ward, UWindsor’s chief communications officer.
“Windsor is home to thousands of alumni, so naturally we want to make sure local residents save the date in their calendars and plan to join us in September,” she says. “The University is an important part of the region and we want the community to know that everyone is invited to the celebration; it’s not only for our alumni.”
The advertisements are already up in 10 strategic locations across the city and will remain in place through May. Promotion through other avenues, including publications, broadcast and social media, will roll out as the Celebration Weekend approaches, Ward says.
Activities scheduled from September 19 to 22 include class reunion events, a vintage car show, homecoming football game, children’s fun zone, signature entertainment at Caesars Windsor, and more.

So... I don't know if EDCF is the right place to ask this, but with the amount of gun nuts on this boards, someone will be able to answer my question. I may or may not crosspost this in the forum which-name-shall-not-be-said-but-starts-with-a-Z. The problem at hand is: For me, any firearm for any practical purpose has a shoulder stock FULLSTOP. I like handguns. I own a revolver and an autoloader and I train and shoot IPSC matches. It's just that I suck with them. I'm fully aware that the purpose of a handgun is not to be the ultimate answer in terms of range and accuracy, but to have something you can carry conveniently and have ready for immediate action wherever you go. Still, I need a stock. I want something rugged and compact that can primarily serve me while chasing game up to the size of fully grown roe deer in dense brushwood, and can secondarily function as a home defense implement should the need arise. Yes, I am going to buy an AUG-Z Sport semi-auto bullpup carbine at some time next year, when decent paychecks start to roll in. Yes, I do own a pump-action shotgun. But I don't think those are the perfect weapons for me. Not only that there are magazine restrictions which make selfloading long guns pretty much useless for hunting, no, I also smell even stricter gun laws coming my way after the next federal election. And semi-autos and pump guns are on top of the list of things which politicians don't want to see in the hand of civilians in this country. Plus, I prefer the classical approach anyway. You know what, I'll spare you the rest of the buildup and just say: I want a lever action riffle. I want it bad. And I don't know heck about them. Please enlighten me! What I'm searching for: lever action carbine cal. .357 Magnum (yay for sidearm and rifle sharing the same awesome cartridge) short length (long enough not to spew out unburned powder with hot loads) magazine capacity: as large as possible given the length iron sights suitable for quick target acquisition accurate between 0 and 80 meters with iron sights rugged construction, good reliability and durability (I'm used to my prewar 98k, I have standards in that regard) Price is not much of an issue. I would prefer a high-value gun (a Rossi maybe?) of course, but I'm willing to pay for quality if necessary. Availability in Germany shouldn't be a problem with all major manufacturers. So, any recommendations?

We can’t prove that The Bard was a member of the group of authors who smoked weed. However, we do know that in 2001, a group of scientists unearthed several pipes dating back to the time of Shakespeare in Shakespeare’s garden. And eight of the pipe fragments contained cannabis!
Experts are looking to Shakespeare’s sonnets, specifically Sonnet 76, for clues about the famous poet’s drug use. In it, Shakespeare writes, “Why is my verse so barren of new pride […] / Why with the time do I not glance aside / To new-found methods and to compounds strange?”
Though this sonnet might suggest that Shakespeare shied away from drug use, how would he know if he hadn’t tried it? Later on, in the same sonnet, Shakespeare writes, “And keep invention in a noted weed.”
Could he be referring to weed as we know it? Is “compounds strange” a reference to cocaine—the pipes also had traces of it–rather than all-natural herb? We may never know.
