The building is primarily made of high-quality yet also robust, long-lasting and low-maintenance materials: steel-reinforced concrete for the cornices, clinker brick in the façades as well as for stairways, smaller walls and access ways. The brick types Terca Lapis WDF, Terca Forum Ombra WDF and Penter Euroton Nostalgie UWF from Wienerberger are particularly suited to the high standards applied here as well as to the elegant aesthetics and the required durability.
Wood was used for the horizontal façade strips and terrace flooring, while glass balustrades are provided as safety barriers on the terraces and balconies.
For a particular emphasis on security, a biometric access control system was installed – a first in Lithuania – that recognises each of the residents. The building has been awarded an energy efficiency class A rating. Geothermal heating systems and heat recovery systems guarantee an optimal supply of fresh air and comfortable indoor temperatures.

Cape Town - Bad Boys for Life was recently released in South Africa.
The long-anticipated Bad Boys sequel reboot featured a star-studded cast which included the likes of Will Smith as Mike Lowrey, Martin Lawrence as Marcus Burnett and new addition to the cast detective Kelly, who’s portrayed by High School Musical actress Vanessa Hudgens.
YOU spoke to the 31-year-old actress about her role in the thriller and crime film.
What was your character preparation process for detective Kelly?
I came to set right from another project, so I didn’t have much lead time. I learnt most of my fight scenes right before we shot them. I actually really enjoyed doing those because it is a lot of choreography, which I’m used to.
What did you enjoy the most during the filming of Bad Boys for Life?
I loved being alongside such a strong group of actors and just an amazing group of people in general. It made for such a fun shoot – not to mention, being on a set with Will Smith means even better crafty for lunch haha!
What was it like working alongside Martin Lawrence and Will Smith?
I couldn’t have been more excited to work alongside the legendary duo that’s Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. We all just had the best time on-set. It was never a dull moment.
What can viewers look forward to from your Bad Boys for Life character?
You can expect to see some pretty bad a** fight scenes. There’s a lot of action in this one!
Are there any future works viewers should look forward to?
I’m going to be shooting my next project, Tick Tick Boom, over the next few months. I’m so ecstatic to be working alongside Lin-Manuel Miranda and my fellow cast members. My next Netflix film, The Princess Switch: Switched Again, will also be released later this year!

A former Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) boss has expressed surprise at the appointment of anti-corruption crusader Martin Amidu as the Special Prosecutor (SP) nominee.
In a race that had many governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) members mentioned as possible SP candidates, Justice Emile Short said he least expected the president to settle on the former Attorney-General.
He told Evans Mensah on Joy FM’s Top Story Thursday the National Democratic Congress (NDC) member is fit for the job because he has demonstrated beyond all doubt that he is independently minded.
“He is a serious anti-corruption crusader…I know him…and he should be acceptable by all shades of opinion,” he said.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has sparked a national debate after he announced a controversial card-bearing NDC member as the Special Prosecutor nominee.
The announcement was in line with section 13(3) of the Special Prosecutor Act, 2018 (Act 663) that enjoins the Attorney-General to nominate an individual who is fit to lead the Office.
Triggering that provision, A-G Gloria Akuffo wrote to the president, nominating Mr Amidu as the right candidate to lead the public independent prosecution office.
“She addressed [the letter] to me exercising her power of nomination…[and] I have accepted the A-G’s nomination,” the president said to plaudits at the Flagstaff House.
Reacting to the announcement, Justice Short said president Akufo-Addo deserves special commendation for the appointment.
“I didn’t see it coming [because] some names came up, people who are close to the NPP [but he settled on] Martin Amidu who has a proven anti-corruption record,” he said.
Eulogising the former A-G, Justice Short said Mr Amidu is an objective legal practitioner who attempts to demonstrate same in his line of work.

NASCAR is planning to switch to a single lug nut for fastening tires during pit stops. The new procedure is expected to start at the beginning of the 2021 season. The move to a single lug nut was brought on by new 18-inch aluminum wheels, which are three inches larger than the wheels that NASCAR currently uses.
Is NASCAR getting rid of lug nuts?
NASCAR is moving to a single lug-nut design in 2021. Officials say the “choreography of the pit stop will look unchanged.”
Are NASCAR lug nuts threaded?
The lugs themselves have a rounded (Domed) end and no thread for the length of the nut. When the tire is mounted the nuts are all glued to the rim, but of course the first nut tightened breaks all the other loose.
Why are NASCAR lug nuts yellow?
Our lugnuts are machined with the strictest of tolerances that assure minimum chamfer to thread run out. Our custom baked-on yellow coating provides quick and consistent torque values providing high visibility for your pit crew.
What will the 2022 NASCAR look like?
When NASCAR’s seventh-generation Cup race car—a.k.a. the Next Gen—opens the 2022 season at the Daytona 500, it’ll be the first one to have aluminum wheels, rack-and-pinion steering, and an independent rear suspension. … It is unprecedented in the history of NASCAR,” said Toyota Racing Development President David Wilson.
What NASCAR team has a female tire changer?
And this year, she became the first Black female tire changer — more specifically, a tire changer on the No. 51 Chevrolet for Rick Ware Racing in the NASCAR Cup Series. Earlier this month, Daniels was joined by teammates Breanna O’Leary and Dalanda Ouendeno as the only women pitting in the Daytona 500.
How does NASCAR put lug nuts on so fast?
Most teams use a yellow-colored, hardening weatherstrip adhesive. When a crew member slams a wheel on the car during a pit stop, the studs punch the lug nuts away from the wheel, but the glue keeps the lug nuts attached. Then the tire changer can tighten all five lug nuts in about one second or so.
What kind of motor is in a NASCAR?
The cars are currently powered by EFI V8 engines, since 2012, after 62 years using carburetion as engine fuel feed with compacted graphite iron blocks and pushrod valvetrains actuating two-valves per cylinder, and are limited to a 358 cubic inch (5.9-liter) displacement.
How much do NASCAR pit crews make?
NASCAR Pit Crew Salary varies as per the role, knowledge, training, skills, and education of crew members. The average salary of NASCAR Pit Crew is around $1,50,000 per year.
How many lug nuts do NASCAR’s have?
For years, NASCAR has used five lug nuts on a race car’s wheels. At the conclusion of the 2020 season, that is set to change. NASCAR is planning to switch to a single lug nut for fastening tires during pit stops.
What is a lug nut penalty?
— Rodney Childers (@RodneyChilders4) September 27, 2021. Seldom does a week go by without NASCAR handing down a penalty to a Cup Series crew chief for a problem in the post-race inspection, and the violation invariably stems from loose lug nuts. One loose lug nut is a $10,000 fine but no suspension.
How much horsepower does a 2021 NASCAR?
A 670 horsepower engine with a 4-inch spoiler will be used at all Cup Series speedways except Daytona International Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway, NASCAR announced Tuesday morning. The configuration also will be implemented at road courses and short tracks.
Why is there tape on NASCAR tires?
The carriers use these marks to know where to grab the wheel in order to hang it correctly on the studs. The good tire carriers can pick a tire up and hang it on the studs without having to spin it to line the holes up correctly. These tape marks help them find the right way to hold the tire to do so.
What happens to the lug nuts in a NASCAR pit stop?
Lug nuts are removed when a race car comes in for a pit stop to get fresh tires. When the pit crewman takes the lug nuts off with his/her high torque air gun, they fly everywhere.

Leo DeLuca brings the lure of Misra Records to his hometown of Dayton
By: Zach Rogers
Photo: Leo DeLuca relocated indie label Misra Records to Dayton in 2012; photo: Bill Franz
The music industry is a very different place than it was 20, 30 or 40 years ago. Numerous technological and cultural advances have made the way music is created and consumed a sort of rebellious, musical Wild West, where all the songs you could ever want are just a mouse click away. This has all had interesting effects on the music industry, and now record labels and musicians – along with retail, bookstores and innumerable facets of life – are trying to figure out how to adapt.
Enter Misra Records, an independent record label with nearly 15 years under its belt, whose recent move to Dayton is just the start of another chapter for the company. Under the direction of Leo DeLuca, a Dayton native who took over the label in 2010 and relocated it in 2012, Misra is determined to give as much back to the city as the city gave to DeLuca.
“Dayton is one of the most innovative cities of all time,” said DeLuca. “For an underdog city this size to be bursting with such creativity in both the arts and sciences is truly remarkable. It inspires me.”
In all reality, an independent record label based in a city with a booming local arts scene can do wonders for everyone involved. “I think the arts bring way more to communities than people even realize,” said DeLuca. “In addition to adding to the health, attractiveness and character of a city, they also add a lot to local economies. Look at Austin, Texas or Portland, Ore. I think it’s very important for people to support the arts, especially in their own communities, and that’s what I want to do.”
Misra Records was formed in 1999 by brothers Michael and Timothy Bracy, along with Paige Conner Totaro. With the help of friend Phil Waldorf managing, the four launched Misra’s first release, Bablicon’s In a Different City, that same year.
“Tim and Phil both went to the University of Georgia, so the label’s first releases are tied to that area and that scene in Athens, with bands like Neutral Milk Hotel, Olivia Tremor Control and Apples in Stereo,” DeLuca explained. “Neutral Milk Hotel drummer Jeremy Barnes went on to form Bablicon, and that’s how the first release came about.”
Summer Hymns is another Athens-based band that connected Misra to that scene, even with the label operating from New York City. Their album Voice Brother and Sister was Misra’s second release in 2000, and rave reviews from popular blog sites like Pitchfork brought the band and the label some attention. Misra went on to release seminal albums from bands like Destroyer, Phosphorescent, Shearwater, Centro-matic, Great Lake Swimmers and more. With the investment of the founders and the management of Waldorf, the label grew and evolved, making a solid name for itself and eventually moving operations from New York City to Austin, Texas. The atmosphere was rich and intoxicating.
In those early years, distribution was handled by SC Distribution, which also owned the labels Secretly Canadian and Jagjaguwar. When they wanted to start up a third label, Dead Oceans, Waldorf became the new label’s manager in 2007 and left his position at Misra. Cory Brown, owner of Absolutely Kosher Records, took over and moved Misra out West, running the two labels from a Bay Area office in Emeryville, Calif. It was under Brown that another band, Southeast Engine, was signed to the label and whose drummer, Leo DeLuca, would eventually take over after Brown’s departure in 2010. After two years of operating Misra in Durham, N.C., DeLuca and the label finally arrived in Dayton, a place where strange vibrations still lingered in the air.
Raised in Dayton, DeLuca witnessed the city’s underground golden age of the ’90s firsthand, where bands like The Breeders, Guided by Voices, Brainiac and Swearing at Motorists became instant heroes for the young musician.
“Music has always been a curative component of my life, and I’ve had a deep love for it for as long as I can remember,” DeLuca explained. “Grandma DeLuca played the saxophone, my brother John is a fantastic guitarist and my cousin Douglas DeLuca is one of the most intriguing composers I know. I play the drum kit. I guess it’s in the blood. Additionally, my Uncle Joey DeLuca was a scout for the Baltimore Orioles and Cleveland Indians. He scouted Manny Ramirez and was with the Orioles when they won the ’83 World Series. These days, I’m working on tapping into the family’s talent-seeking genes as well. Ha!”
During its underground heyday, Dayton was the epitome of a young scene buzzing with a slew of promising new bands, many of whom actually started to gain a little bit of exposure outside of their Midwestern bubble. But it wasn’t just the bands that made Dayton feel special; at the time, there seemed to be a lot of places in the city that felt more like safe havens, places that were a lot more open to letting these odd sounds through their doors.
“One could head to Canal Street, The Sub Gallery, The Lithuanian Club, Trader Vic’s, The Chameleon Club, Gem City Records, Network, etc. and feel the excitement everywhere,” said DeLuca. “All-ages shows were frequent, and the whole community was involved. Seeing Brainiac play at the Lithuanian Club at age 14 proved to be a monumental experience for me. It gave me the fever for independent music.”
That fever translated into the work of Southeast Engine, who released several albums through Misra. It was being signed to the label that gave DeLuca the interest in running a label of his own one day. “It had always been a dream of mine to run a label,” DeLuca said, “so I started up a cottage label called Moon Jaw Records in 2010 that was distributed by Misra. Soon after, I ended up taking over as Misra’s manager.”
The takeover has already proven successful, with a handful of Misra artists making headlines via the likes of “The David Letterman Show,” SPIN, Pitchfork, NPR and MTV Hive, just to name a few. DeLuca himself was even featured in Billboard, which highlighted all the work he’s put in with the label. With his band Southeast Engine on an indefinite hold at the moment, the majority of DeLuca’s time and energy is being funneled into Misra, which was certainly needed for the move.
“Southeast Engine is taking it easy right now,” DeLuca said. “Our bassist Jesse Remnant moved to Vermont last year, our vocalist and guitarist Adam Remnant became a father in 2011 and I’m in a long-distance relationship with a wonderful woman named Mary Fecteau who calls Cleveland home. As a result, it just became too hard to manage logistics at this time. We’ll see what the future holds, though.”
For Misra Records, the future is bright. But why Dayton? For DeLuca, the answer is simple: It’s the city’s creative backdrop and lasting legacy in the modern world that he finds so appealing. “I walk around Dayton and think about how this is the same setting from which Paul Laurence Dunbar, the Wright Brothers, Charles Kettering, the Deal sisters and Zapp & Roger all drew inspiration,” admitted DeLuca. “These people experienced the same weather patterns, many of the same structures and the same geography that’s around us today. This was the backdrop that gave rise to such extraordinary creations. I love Dayton’s story, and I wanted to be back here.”
With the move now well-established, DeLuca and Misra have several Dayton-related releases lined up. First was R. Ring, the new project from The Breeders’ iconic Kelley Deal and Ampline’s Mike Montgomery. The duo released their debut 7” “Fallout & Fire” b/w “SEE” on Misra back in October 2012, and the two tracks are bare and minimal, highlighted by Deal’s signature voice and Montgomery’s sparse guitar. The release gained a wealth of feedback from places like SPIN, Stereogum and Consequence of Sound, and showcased the band’s ability to do so much with so little.
Next is the full-length debut album from Crooks on Tape, an eclectic trio comprised of John Schmersal, Rick Lee and Joey Galvan. Again, the Dayton roots are evident, with Schmersal having played guitar for Dayton legends Brainiac back in the ’90s. After their tragic end in 1997 due to the sudden death of singer Tim Taylor, Schmersal went on to form the band Enon with Lee and Steve Calhoon. Now, Schmersal and Lee have joined forces once again, and the release is important for both the label and the city.
“It’s John’s first record since 2007, so it’s pretty exciting,” said DeLuca. “Due to Brainiac’s influence on me as a boy, this one’s very special to me.”
The album, Fingerprint, is out now and it’s a wild assortment of improvised wonder. The tracks are pulled from hundreds of hours of recorded material, from sessions that date anywhere from winter 2010 to spring 2012. The band went in with the mindset of recording everything, and it’s from these impulsive jams that actual songs came to life. The album is already generating noise from websites like PopMatters and Tiny Mix Tapes, and it marks only the beginning of what the band has to offer.
At the same time that Crooks on Tape are making headlines with their debut, Misra also recently signed Dayton veterans Motel Beds. First up from them is a split 7” with labelmates R. Ring, which is currently in the works. After that, Misra plans on releasing the album These Are the Days Gone By, a collection of Beds favorites and never-before-heard tracks from their prolific career on the local music circuit. All tracks will be remastered by Carl Saff – who lent his hand in mastering albums by Guided by Voices, Dinosaur Jr., Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore, Silver Jews and more – with a release date set for January 2014.
In addition to releasing Dayton-related material, Misra also has its eye on the world at large. The label plans on working with an act from London soon, as well as bands from all over the globe. “Misra will also be releasing the next album by Shaquille O’Neal,” said DeLuca jokingly. “It’s the long-awaited follow-up to his hit single ‘(I Know I Got) Skillz.’”
While this is obviously not true, it doesn’t look like anything is going to stop Misra from giving back to the city it now calls home.
“Dayton has given me a great deal,” said DeLuca, “and now I just want to try and give back to my hometown in some way.”

One Planet Polar Summit: the first international summit on the protection of glaciers and polesReading time : 2 minutes
On November 8 and November 9, 2023, the very first international summit dedicated to the protection of glaciers and poles was held in Paris.
Polar regions, which are particularly vulnerable to phenomena like climate change and biodiversity erosion, are being increasingly exposed to environmental threats due notably to tourism and risks of over-exploitation.
In 2022, France adopted its National Polar Strategy for 2030, which sounded the alarm about the fragility of glacial and polar worlds and proposes concrete responses at the level of the international community. Among other elements, this strategy set a goal for France to be the “champions of the protection of Antarctica”. In this context, the French President has decided to host a first-of-its-kind Summit on glaciers and poles, in partnership with the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
2/ What happened?
This Summit, which took place on November 8 and November 9, 2023, was hosted in the context of the Paris Peace Forum, which was itself held from November 10 to November 11, 2023.
The goal was to bring together the international community in order to elaborate a long-term strategy for the protection and adaptation of glacial and polar biodiversity and populations. A great variety of actors were convened, including scientific researchers, experts from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), non-governmental organisations and representatives of indigenous peoples.
This Summit led to the adoption of the Paris Call for Glaciers and Poles, to which is annexed a scientific statement on cryosphere. This declaration underlines how “the years 2021 and 2022 saw massive ice loss in mountain glaciers, with ice loss rates 20% higher on average than the previous decade”. The countries and international organizations that endorsed the Call wish to sound the “alarm about the scale and the speed of the melting ice and thawing permafrost and the risk of crossing thresholds and tipping points, which have increased with the continued rise in global greenhouse emissions”.
Moreover, the last part of this declaration is a call for action. Among many other proposals, countries and organizations are for example “calling for more in-depth scientific research on the cryosphere without delay, better integration of the effects of cryosphere changes into economic decision-making and increased education on the issues relating to this” and calling “for the international efforts underway to be scaled up”.

Joe Johnson was player #92 on the all-time Fitzroy playing list. A dashing half back turned half forward who starred in defence in the club’s 1904 premiership side and in attack when they won the flag again in 1905.
But he was much, much more. He was a footballing pioneer. The AFL’s first Indigenous player.
As legend has it, Johnson was born in Newcastle, NSW, on 19 January 1883 to a family originally from Melbourne. They moved back south when he was still young and he did what so many young boys did. He played football. For fun.
In 1903 at 20 he joined with Northcote in the Victorian Football Association, a rival and lesser competition to the more prestigious Victorian Football League. There he caught the eye of recruiters from VFL powerhouse Fitzroy.
Fitzroy was a founding member of the VFL, an eight-team breakaway competition formed in 1897. It also included Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon, Geelong, Melbourne, South Melbourne and St Kilda.
Then known as the ‘Maroons’, they were premiers in 1898-99, grand finalists in 1900, semi-finalists in 1901, preliminary finalists in 1902 and grand finalists in 1903.
On 7 May 1904 a 21-year-old Johnson debuted with Fitzroy in the Round 1 match against Carlton at Princes Park. He was one of three first-gamers in a side headed by Bill McSperrin and Ern Jenkins, who had played in Fitzroy’s very first VFL match also against Carlton at Brunswick St Oval in 1897.
McSperrin had been a member of the 1898-99 premiership sides. He captained Fitzroy in 1901, became the club’s first 100-game player in 1903 and retired after the 1904 grand final win.
Jenkins, part of the 1899 flag, was later to play in Fitzroy’s 1904-05 premiership sides, captain the club in 1906-07 and coach Richmond in 1913 before an umpiring career that included five grand finals.
Johnson would go on to grab a place in football history.
He was a quietly spoken fella who kept to himself. He just played. Every week. After a 94-point win on debut he played all 17 home-and-away games as Fitzroy topped the 1904 ladder with 12 wins. After a semi-final win over Collingwood they met Carlton in the grand final on 17 September in front of a crowd of 32,688.
As reports put it, Johnson was ‘crudely flattened’ by Carlton full forward George Topping in the first quarter but recovered to play a key role in a 24-point win. He was judged second best player on the ground, according to the press.
He played 16 of 17 home-and-away games in 1905, plus a semi-final win over Essendon and a preliminary final win over Carlton in which for the first time he kicked two goals and was judged best afield.
In the grand final against Collingwood at the MCG on 30 September 1905 he had less influence playing in defence but at 22, after 38 of a possible 39 games in two years, he was a dual premiership player.
Writing later in an historical publication ‘Grand Finals Volume 1 – 1897-1938’, Adam McNicol noted: “An often smiling young man, Johnson boasted a muscular build and was referred to in a number of newspaper reports as being ‘a very smart player’.”
In his 55th and final game a 23-year-old Johnson was a member of a Fitzroy side beaten by 49 points in front of a then record crowd of 44,437 on 22 September 1906.
Stepping away from the big time he returned to the VFA as Brunswick captain-coach, taking them to the 1909 premiership before finishing his career back at Northcote.
In 1916 he enlisted in the Australian Army and saw action in the First World War in Egypt and France. His health reportedly suffered in Europe and he was given a medical discharge in 1917.
Returning to Australia, he slipped off the radar. Little is known of his time post-war, although his passing in 1934 was recorded in the local press.
But 100 years later, when the AFL named the Indigenous Team of the Century, the man who blazed the game’s Indigenous trail was front of mind. A key figure in football history.
Johnson’s own family played an extended role in the Indigenous football journey. His son Percy played for North Melbourne, his grandson Percy Jnr played with Hawthorn, and great grandsons Robert and Trent played with Fitzroy. Trent also played with West Coast.
Johnson Snr was one of 12 Indigenous players to wear Fitzroy colors. A further 19, including two double-ups, have played for Brisbane.
The extended Lions family has featured some of the game’s most decorated Indigenous players. Chris Johnson, a 264-game veteran and favorite with both sides of the merger family, was named in the Indigenous Team of the Century with Darryl White, a 268-game triple premiership teammate with Brisbane, and Michael McLean, a dual Brisbane club champion.
White and Johnson rank in the top 10 Indigenous games list which includes Shaun Burgoyne (395), Adam Goodes (372), Andrew McLeod (340), Eddie Betts (339), Lance Franklin (306), Michael O’Loughlin (303), Gavin Wanganeen (300) and Shane Edwards (273).
Sir Doug Nicholls, a church pastor, Governor of South Australia and the man after whom the annual Indigenous Round is named, was a Fitzroy player. He played 54 games for the club from 1932-37 and represented Victoria four times.
Full list of Fitzroy Indigenous players:
Joe Johnson – 5 games Fitzroy 1904-06
Norm Byron – 2 games Fitzroy 1918
Doug Nicholls- 54 games Fitzroy 1932-37
Shadrack James – 19 games Fitzroy 1940-41
Ted Lovett – 9 games Fitzroy 1963-64
Kevin Taylor – 14 games South Melbourne 1981, 1 games Fitzroy 1984
Wally Matera- 24 games West Coast 1987-88, 32 games Fitzroy 1989-90
Kevin Caton – 1 game West Coast 1988, 9 games Fitzroy 1989, 8 games Brisbane 1990
Dale Kickett – 15 games Fitzroy 1990, 2 games West Coast 1991, 21 games StKilda 1992,
8 games Essendon 1994, 135 games Fremantle 1995-2002
Robert Cummings – 1 game Fitzroy 1990
Chris Johnson – 59 games Fitzroy 1994-96, 205 games Brisbane 1997-2007
Trent Cummings – 27 games Fitzroy 1994-96, 2 games West Coast.
Caton and Johnson are two of 21 Indigenous players to play for Brisbane.

Intellectual Personalities of Cyprus 10.10.2014
My friend dear friend Merja sent me 6 Fdc's with four definitive stamps on each fdc, honouring Intellectual Personalities of Cyprus. The first four stamps on an FDC and details about them are given below :-
(0.04) Stylianos Hourmouzios. He was born in Omodos in 1850 and died in 1937. Between 1874-1880 he was a leading cantor at Agios Antonios Church in Nicosia and from the beginning of the 19th century up until 1916 he was a cantor in Agia Napa Church in Limassol. Between 1917-1931 he taught Byzantine music at the Pancyprian College of Education. In 1936 the Church of Cyprus awarded him the title of "Lord Cantor". He was a pioneer in creating the movement for studying and spreading Byzantine music. He wrote a number of studies and articles on Ecclesiastical music and published books on teaching Byzantine music. He was also involved in journalism. In 1884 he published the "Trumpet", a weekly newspaper in Limassol. In 1901 he was elected a corresponding member of the Ecclesiastical Musical Society in Constantinople.
(0.04) Theodoulos Kallinikos. He was born in Lefkonikon in 1904 and died in 2004. He came to Nicosia at a very early age and attended lessons in Byzantine music under Stylianos Houmouzios, the renowned music teacher. He studied Byzantine music in Athens and at the National Conservatory, graduating with distinction. Upon his return to Cyprus, he was the leading cantor at Agios Ioannis Church in Nicosia. In 1937 he established the School of Byzantine Church Music, from which hundreds of students graduated, serving as cantors in many parts of Cyprus. He founded the Church Choir. He published many ecclesiastical books and a volume on fold songs of Cyprus, titled "Cypriot Folk Muse". He collected these songs by travelling around all the villages in Cyprus from 1924 and writing them down as he heard them from village elders, thus contributing to maintaining our musical tradition and rescuing a truly priceless cultural treasure. The Holy Synod of the Church of Cyprus awarded him the honorary title of "Lord Cantor" of the Autocephalous Church of Cyprus and the Academy of Athens honoured him for his work and contribution to Byzantine and Cypriot folk music.
(0.34) Achilleas Lymbourides. He was born in Nicosia in 1917 and died in 2008. He was a pioneer composer of Cypriot folk songs and contributor to he theatre He set music to the lyrics of eminent poets in the Cyprus dialect. With Costas Montis, he established the first professional theatre in Cyprus, known as "To Lyricon" ("The Lyric"), which staged his own productions wit great success. Lymbourides' legacy to Cypriot literature is a number of theatrical plays, in particular genre comedy, which were transferred to television. The melodies set to the lyrics of folk and other Cypriot poets, including his own, represent the folk music of Cyprus in the best possible way. In addition to being a composer, he was also a remarkable writer. In the 70s and 80s he produced Cypriot studies and edited books on the history Cypriot journalism, the British rule in Cyprus and others. He received awards from the Municipality of Nicosia, the University of Cyprus and "Adouloti Kyrenia" for his valuable contributions and in 1998 the Cyprus State bestowed on him the "Award for Excellence in Letters and the Arts".
(0.34) Sozos Tombolis. He was born in Lysi in 1914 and died in 2002. He attended the Pancyprian Seminary in Larnaca and then the Athens National Conservatory. He was subsequently appointed a professor of music (1938-1974) at Secondary schools of education. At the same time he was a leading cantor at Faneromeni Church in Nicosia. He established and managed the Faneromeni quartet, a mixed ecclesiastical choir in the 1980s. He also established an orchestra for string and wind instruments at the Pancyprian Gymnasium and many other choirs for associations and foundations in Nicosia. At the same time he also started researching and studying Cypriot folk music, recording musical rhythms and the melody of our folk songs. He was also interested in the palaeography of Byzantine music. He received an award in 1967 for his book on Cypriot Rhythms and Melodies by the Academy of Athens and in 1995 the Cyprus State bestowed on him the "Award for Excellence in Letters and the Arts".

The new USFL is coming and bringing back the Houston Gamblers. But, in true 21st century Houston pro football fashion, the launch is coming amidst all sorts of controversy, potential scandal, and other sorts of drama.
The reborn USFL, led by businessman Brian Woods, has no legal, direct, or indirect connection to the original entity that existed in the 1980s. With the only tie coming by way of the league’s legacy and names, which Woods & Co. scooped up when the trademarks lapsed, you can imagine those who believe they still have a vested interest in the original league aren’t so happy with the new one.
After the first incarnation of the USFL went down in flames, oft blamed on former President Donald Trump, there were multiple attempts to revive it. One such effort was rumored to have ultimately evolved into the original XFL.
Now, the current USFL is about to launch. They held their draft last week, and they even have a spiffy new website that is oddly lacking in all the journalistic “Ws” any information dissemination platform really needs. Either Woods and friends don’t understand basic Marketing 101 or view it as an afterthought based on their “official” website and information channels.
To make things more Jack Easterby-esque, former Miami Dolphins running back and USFL 1.0’s Jacksonville Bulls general manager Larry Csonka, joined by others associated with the original league, filed a lawsuit on February 28th to stop the launch of the new league.
The original USFL is suing the new USFL for trademark infringement, false advertising and false association related to their league name, logos and uniforms.
“The Real USFL, LLC” filed the complaint in a California federal court on Monday. The plaintiff alleges that the new USFL is “an unabashed counterfeit” and that “it has no right” to the league’s name as well as the names and logos of each of the eight teams.
The suit also contends that the new USFL “has traded on the false narrative that Fox’s League and USFL teams are the offspring of the original.”
“Fox could have easily started its own league with new teams, but instead chose to take the goodwill and nostalgia of the original league without the permission of the people who actually created it,” attorney Alex Brown said in a press release. “Fox can’t dispute that the ‘Real USFL’ marks are recognizable and valued because they’re using them and purposefully confusing its league with the original. Rather than do the right thing, Fox has chosen to try and bully the prior owners into submission. That’s not going to happen.”
This isn’t the first time that the original USFL has come after the new, Fox-backed league. They also spoke out about the league’s branding in 2021 and entered negotiations with Fox about it.
Meanwhile, in further “what is happening?” related news, the Houston Gamblers aren’t actually scheduled to play any games in Houston. That’s right. The team’s only connection to our beloved city is the name and legacy.
Not only will the City of Birmingham host the headquarters of the new league, it’ll host every game of the regular season there as well. For all the related announcements on that, click here. It’s hard to imagine all of these things aren’t the ingredients of the newest recipe for failure.
Unfortunately, that leaves us pining for the XFL’s Houston Roughnecks, who are currently scheduled to return in 2023.
If nothing else, Dallas will always have a wonderful memory of getting trounced by the Roughnecks in their inaugural season to keep them warm at night.

I originally turned to Inferno when another pumping company sprayed close to a yard of grout all over the side of a home I was repairing, then started washing out his pump on a brand new driveway. Needless to say, it was time to find another pumping company.
Inferno is great! I use their trailer mounted pumping services to pump basement slabs I replace, along with grouting cmu. Half the time, the owner is on site to pump. Every Inferno employee has been respectful and they always clean up after themselves, including hauling away the washout materials. Prices are competitive, scheduling has yet to be an issue, and they are never late.

For 60 years, US factory farms have included broad-spectrum antibiotics in the feed for livestock. It is said to promote growth. It also promotes antibiotic resistance. Fully 80% (30 million pounds) of the antibiotics used in the US are fed to animals who provide our meat and dairy products. In 1977, FDA announced it planned to withdraw approval for some antibiotic use in animal feed. It never did, till 2005, when fluoroquinolones, like Cipro and Baytril, were to be stopped. But there was no enforcement.
Cheap production methods introduce bacterial contamination to meat. See this Bloomberg report on pork production, and the effects of FDA’s reduced inspections. Scary.
Back in 2010, FDA asked farmers to reduce all antibiotic use routinely in animal feed. The practice had been banned in the European Union in 2006. But the practice continued in the US, in the absence of an outright ban.
Last year, after the 2005 FDA ruling on antibiotic fluoroquinolones failed to stop their use, FDA issued a stronger ban on the use of fluroquinolones in animal feed, as antibiotics resistance develops rapidly to this class of drugs.
Last April, the Environmental Working Group issued a report, Superbugs Invade American Supermarkets, which FDA rapidly rebutted. (It seems the gov’t PR folks can always get out a quick rebuttal to anything.) But now FDA has made an about-face.
In a surprise decision, FDA has taken the bold step of telling farmers to phase out the use of all indiscriminate antibiotics (those used to promote growth, not those used to treat specific infections) by 2017. Farmers will need a prescription from a veterinarian to give animals antibiotics. The change is being effected by changing the labels on the antibiotics: their use to promote growth in livestock will no longer be FDA-approved. This is a method available to FDA, with adequate enforcement tools, that could stop antibiotics’ routine use.
Some claim farmers will still be able to use the drugs for “disease prevention.” How FDA enforces this change will determine its scope.
Kudos to FDA for the very important decision (finally). Let’s hope this time it sticks. Banning antibiotics in feed may increase the price of food a little. But the quality of the US food supply, especially its factory-farmed meat, is currently so poor, that efforts to turn around the degradation of the food supply, and begin improving the quality of our foodstuffs are really, really important. Hopefully, FDA will next ban the use of arsenic and prozac in chickens. And move on from there to secure a safe US food supply.

Fall is here but it definitely doesn’t feel like it here in Santa Monica! Even though the leaves aren’t falling, I’m reminded of my favorite fall activities growing up in the midwest. I created these exercises when I was living in Chicago and pregnant with my oldest, Landon. Hence, my sister modeling all the exercises. I decided this fall to put them into a full workout for you. There is a PDF/JPG at the bottom so you can print out the workout or save it to your phone. It’s also available on Pinterest HERE if you want to pin it or share it. Feel free to have your kids join you or even use props!
Because I know how busy you are, one recommendation I have is to simply take this workout and repeat it as many times through in the amount of time you have. For instance, if you have only 15 minutes to workout, do the entire circuit on the right, rest 30-60 seconds, repeat left, rest 30-60 seconds, repeat right . . . until the time runs out. This will hopefully encourage you to hustle and push harder.
Otherwise, just follow the directions below or on your PDF. Your magic number in this workout is 8. Each exercise is performed 8 times. You do 8 repetitions of each of the 4 exercises leading with your right leg. Rest for 30-60 seconds. Repeat all the exercises leading with your left leg. Rest and repeat the entire circuit (on the right and the left) 3 more times.
RAKE IT UP:
Clasp your hands together as if you are holding a rake (pic 1). Step out to the right with your right leg and into a side lunge, so the left leg stays straight (pic 2). Slowly rake the leaves (and you) back to the center pile. Moving counter-clockwise step to the angle into a corner lunge, so that the back leg bends (pic 3) and come back together again. Finally, lunge straight to the front (pic 4). With your back leg bent and your arms reaching forward. Repeat all three lunges 6 times through before rep eating on the other side. ***The key to raking leaves is using your entire body!
Arms are at your chest ready to catch a Football. Picking your Feet up as high as you can, run to your right – right, left, right, so you land with the left knee up (pic 1). Run to the left – left, right, left (pic 2). Run to the back – right, left, right & swing your arms and torso back to catch the ball (pic 3). Run to the front -left,right,left and throw the ball (pic 4). This is a great core and cardiovascular speed & agility exercise. And yes, it will require you to think!
PUMPKIN ROLL & APPLE HOP:
Open up your hips and keep your chest lifted as you squat down to pick up a pumpkin. Instead of picking it back up, stay low and walk forward in your squat right, left, right, left, as you roll your pumpkin across the pumpkin patch (Pumpkin Roll pic). Reach up to the right as you pick an apple, lifting your left leg up and out on the diagonal. As you reach up, push off your supporting leg and hop into the air (Apple Hop pic), squeezing your butt and abs. Squat back down to do your Pumpkin Roll but walk backwards this time – right, left, right, left. Repeat your Apple Hop – right, left, right, left.
Take a big step forward with the right foot into a lunge (pic 1), as if you were hiking up a hill. Take your hands to the slippery ground in front of your right leg (pic 2). Walk your right leg straight back and then your left to meet in plank (pic 3). Walk your right leg forward into a lunge (pic 4) & stand up bringing the feet together (pic 5). Begin slowly and gradually pick up speed. This is a great total body exercise working legs, core, and shoulders. As you pick up speed you will also feel a cardiovascular challenge.
Please leave any questions or comments you have in the section below. Share with your friends and make sure to download the attached JPG or PDF.

School Tobacco Policy Survey Findings
The Chronic Disease Primary Prevention Program at the Harrison County Health Department recently surveyed the Harrison county school districts regarding tobacco policies. Some of the results may be surprising. All five school districts in the county were asked the same questions to obtain these results.
The first questions were in regards to smoking policies and smoking areas allowed at the school. We found that eighty percent of schools surveyed were not familiar with the “Clean Indoor Air Act”. Sixty percent of schools have areas designated outside for smoking. Only one district prohibits smoking at school sponsored events and no schools have “tobacco use prohibited” signs posted.
We also surveyed the schools about tobacco use prevention and cessation. It was found that 100 percent of the schools do have some tobacco prevention integrated into the curriculum. Only 40 percent of the schools offer any smoking cessation services to the staff or students.
The last asked how happy the schools are with their current tobacco use policies. Only 40 percent of the schools were satisfied with their current policy, but only forty percent were contemplating changes to the policy. Of all the schools surveyed, 80 percent would rather not have assistance in changing their smoking policy but 60 percent said they would like to receive information on smoking/tobacco use prevention education.

Could it be true that patient reports about their overall health are more accurate than their doctors’? A recent study published in Psychoneuroendocrinology indicates that patients’ self-reports could help doctors more than standard tests like blood tests and blood pressure measurements.
Looking for a simple way to gauge your health that you can perform at home? Measuring your resting heart rate is a great way to monitor basic heart health, because resting heart rate (RHR) is a good indication of heart muscle function.

Deep rot in West Bengal during COVID-19 lockdown: Mamata Banerjee has reason to be touchy over Centre's fact-finding attempts
If Mamata's defence is that her state’s numbers are too low to demand attention, it is precisely for that reason that the data coming out of Bengal should be put under severe scrutiny. Worldwide, the pandemic has established a link between number of positive cases and testing.
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark — Shakespeare wrote in Hamlet. The Bard might as well have been talking about West Bengal. There is something foul in Mamata Banerjee's state and all the perfumes of Arabia, narrative building or data fudging, cannot hide the stench.
It could explain why the West Bengal chief minister is being so obtuse and nervous about a central fact-finding team visiting the state.
Acting on complaints, the Union ministry of home affairs has dispatched Inter-Ministerial Central Teams (IMCT) to assess the level of preparedness in the battle against the pandemic in different red and orange zones across India. These teams are mandated to evaluate implementation of lockdown measures and any complications arising from laxity, condition of health infrastructure, safety of health workers, violation of social distancing norms in "hotspots and emerging hotspots" that may pose a "serious health hazard". They will make on-the-spot assessment, prepare reports and give suggestions.
As it happens, seven districts in Bengal are under the radar — Kolkata, Howrah, East Medinipur, North 24-Parganas, Darjeeling, Kalimpong and Jalpaiguri. The MHA, in an order dated 19 April, has stated that "after analysing prevalence of violations in major hotspot districts, it is clear to the central government that the situation is “especially serious in these districts."
Is Bengal the only state where such teams are being sent by the Centre? No.
While the two five-member teams will visit West Bengal, two will visit Maharashtra and one each will head for Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. While Madhya Pradesh has a BJP government, three of these states are ruled by the Opposition. Only Mamata, however, is creating a furore.
Mamata initially refused to cooperate with the central team and denied them access and logistical support.
She abided when Amit Shah’s ministry issued a warning and a letter asking Mamata not to obstruct the central teams from doing its duty.
GoI directs G/o #WestBengal not to obstruct working of Central Teams reg. review & on-spot assessment of implementation of #Lockdown2 measures to fight #COVID19 in the State
WB directed to comply with MHA orders & make arrangements for IMCTs to carry out their responsibilities pic.twitter.com/h5nRnszOat
— Spokesperson, Ministry of Home Affairs (@PIBHomeAffairs) April 21, 2020
At a news conference in New Delhi, a home ministry spokesperson said if West Bengal fails to extend cooperation, they may face action. Latest reports indicated that after putting the teams on hold initally, the Mamata government has finally allowed ICMT members to do their job.
Prima facie, this controversy makes little sense. If the Centre has assessed that certain districts need to be closely monitored, why would the states create hurdles in that effort, given the unique threat posed by a pandemic that demands a collaborative effort? After all, the virus did not originate in Bengal.
The answer to this question takes us to the heart of the rot that lies within Bengal where administrative apathy, political opportunism, bureaucratic inertia, censoring of information and data fudging has created a situation where nobody is sure how deep and far the COVID-19 pandemic has spread.
Faced with a loss of credibility in its data, the Mamata Banerjee government is busy spinning a furious yarn to control the narrative. It has taken a leaf out of the Chinese playbook in bullying into silence all dissenting voices and releasing only ‘sanitized’ information. Some of it so brazen that it defies belief.
During a recent news conference where Mamata was questioned on the silence of Tablighi Jamaat attendees from Bengal who went for Nizamudddin Markaz event in New Delhi — a known hotspot — Mamata rebuked the journalists, telling them not to ask "communal questions".
That she has largely escaped censure despite such autocratic behavior tells us the way ‘liberal’ media treats ‘secular’ leaders. But that’s another story. Let us first look at Mamata’s allegations against the Centre before we assess how deep the public health crisis is in Bengal.
The chief minister has accused the Centre of political witch-hunt and asked why the Centre has not sent teams to states such as Gujarat or Uttar Pradesh that are ruled by the BJP. This is a non-sequitur. One of the central teams is going to Madhya Pradesh.
Second, Mamata has questioned the validity of Centre’s move, calling it an assault on ‘federalism’. In her letter to the prime minister and Union home minister, she called it an “unilateral action”. Trinamool Congress MP Derek O’Brien has said the Central team is doing “adventure tourism”.
In response, the Centre has pointed out these teams "have been deputed under the authority conferred on the central government under Section 35 of the Disaster Management Act, 2005, which in turn authorises the Centre to take all such measures…" It has also reminded the state of the Supreme Court order passed on 31 March, 2020, where states have been asked to "comply with the directives and orders issued by the Union of India in letter and spirit in the interest of public safety."
Mamata has also accused the Centre of “breaching protocol” since the ICMT delegation arrived just minutes after a formal communication. This is a valid charge, but in dealing with a state government that has a history of covering up incidents and dressing-up data, there is a good reason why Central teams on a fact-finding mission didn’t want to give the administration too much time for ‘preparation’.
Mamata’s final allegation is that Centre's discriminatory behaviour has been "exposed" by the fact that it targeted Bengal, a state with among the lowest coronavirus cases in India, whereas states with more cases and hotpots have been ignored. This is a poor attempt at spinning the narrative.
The Centre should be lauded for sending an investigative team to Bengal where swirling allegations point to large-scale data suppression, surreptitious cremation of bodies, lack of testing, collapse in public health infrastructure and charges of corruption in distribution of ration through PDS.
If Mamata’s defence is that her state’s numbers are too low to demand attention, it is precisely for that reason that the data coming out of Bengal should be put under severe scrutiny. Worldwide, the pandemic has established a link between number of positive cases and testing. It is an established fact that Bengal’s testing is among the lowest in India, and it may explain why one of India’s most populous states has such a low number of positive cases. Well may Mamata claim that this is a result of her stellar administrative skills, facts indicate otherwise.
A study by India Today found that Bengal's testing rate as 'abysmally low', and calls it a 'cause for concern' given Bengal’s large population. A similar data crunching by The Wire found that Bengal has “actually performed the least number of tests amongst all the large states in India.”
A Reuters report published on 14 April pointed out that West Bengal has done “just 33.7 tests per million, compared to a national average of around 156.9 per million, and 442 per million in Rajasthan."
Why is Bengal performing so few tests? Mamata has claimed that the state has very few testing kits available, but once again facts belie her claims.
The chief of National Institute of Cholera and Enteric Diseases (NICED) — nodal arm of ICMR in Kolkata — has gone on record to say that Bengal government is not sending enough samples for testing. Dr Shanta Dutta, Director, NICED, told media that flow of samples has not been “equal from the very beginning”. In an article published on 13 April, Dr Dutta was quoted, as saying to India Today.
"There is a big drop last week we didn’t even have 20 samples per day. Number of samples being sent is determined by the state government, so if they send more samples, we are able to test more. I think sample collection has not been as per the recommendation."
She refuted allegations on lack of testing kits, pointing out that ICMR has dispatched 42,500 kits to NICED so far. So, why are samples not being sent for testing in Bengal? Has the coronavirus decided to spare the Bengal residents? The truth is disturbing.
Bengal has become the only state to install a bureaucratic layer between the doctor and a patient. Even if a doctor decides that a patient needs to be tested immediately, a body constituted by the state government will ‘verify’ whether there is a need for testing. And it may refuse permission.
This administrative step has created a fissure between the state and health service providers. Doctors are angry not only at being superseded but also because this red tape is causing a delay in isolation and treatment, allowing the deadly contagion to spread faster.
Dr Arjun Dasgupta, who represents West Bengal Doctors Forum, a body that has 19,000 doctors as members, was quoted by Reuters as saying: ““If you suspect COVID and send the samples, either they are refused, or the report comes back after three to four days.”
Needless to say that this is not only crippling public health, it is also leading to likely under-reporting of positive cases. Not only is the state doing meagre testing — leave alone asymptomatic cases — it is failing to test even those who doctors think are infected with COVID-19. This may explain why Bengal’s count is so low.
This devious plan to keep the numbers down makes it impossible to understand the true extent of the outbreak in Bengal. And that’s not all. Mamata has introduced yet another bureaucratic layer that takes away power from the doctors to write the cause of death in death certificates. A state-appointed committee will decide whether a patient has died of coronavirus, or not.
What explains the rationale behind this move?
Dr Pratim Sengupta, a noted Nephrologist in Kolkata associated with Belle Vue clinic, in a Facebook post alleged that even when coronavirus patients were dying with symptoms of respiratory failure, the “expert advisory committee” was not citing COVID-19 as cause of death. (Also see Reuters report).
Attaching pictures with his post of a deceased patient, the doctor has written (sic): “Friends below is the X-ray and CT scan of PT died at a hospital of North Calcutta who was COVID19 positive; but declared as death due to renal failure !! I am practising nephrology for last one decade, It’s new learning for me!!”
These are not one-off charges. The state’s death figures have been called into question by a number of people from medical fraternity. Many doctors are scared of identifying themselves in fear of retribution from state machinery but there are some like Dr Sengupta who have raised a stink. Corroborating the nephrologist’s charges, Dr Archana Majumdar has been quoted as saying in a Sunday Guardian report that the state is hiding the real figures of death. “Let me cite one example. It happened this week at one of the hospitals. A patient, named Sudipta Mukherjee, got admitted and eventually died around 1004 hours. She was 43 years old and her body was sent out of the hospital as a Hepatitis B case.”
China has recently revised Wuhan’s death figures, raising it by 50 percent and adding 1,290 fatalities after a US intelligence report indicated that China cited false statistics and kept the figures artificially low to hide the true extent of the outbreak and create an impression that they were on top of the crisis.
The Bengal government has copied from the Chinese playbook, but its implementation has been comical.
CPM leader Md Salim has tweeted purported documents that show discrepancy in death figures. One COVID patient, Nepal Barman from Malda, was “surreptitiously” cremated on 12 April but his sample was apparently collected the day after on 13 April. The CPM leader asked: “How can swab of a person, cremated on 12th, be collected on 13th and report come on 14th? Are you treating patients or your 'Banglar Garvo' signboard?”
Mamata Banerjee govt had said till then that he's not dead&reports show he tested negative. But sample was collected on 13th. How can swab of a person, cremated on 12th,be collected on 13th&report come on 14th? Are you treating patient or your 'Banglar Garvo' signboard?: Md Salim pic.twitter.com/CHgklLxiFX

The state government is accused not only of dressing up death data to hide real figures and changing the parameters of counting but also playing around with numbers that expose lack of coordination between the different arms of the State machinery. In a report published on 3 April, The Hindu noted how the chief secretary of state refuted fatality numbers within hours of the state’s own Covid task force releasing it.
Not just ‘crunching’ numbers, the state’s laid-back approach in mitigating the crisis has alarmed the doctors to such an extent that they have shot off a 10-point letter to the chief minister, red-flagging issues of non-availability of PPEs for health workers leading to 137 medical staff including doctors, nurses and para-medical staff being infected, treatment of suspect and positive COVID patients in hospitals earmarked for the pandemic instead of keeping them in general ward and absence of real-time data.
Bengal's response in tackling the issues raised by doctors is eerily close to Chinese authoritarian system. Oncologist doctor Indranil Khan was detained and allegedly mentally tortured by police for raising the issue of safety gear for health workers. Facing State-sponsored bullying, Dr Khan eventually approached the high court that “came down heavily on the Mamata Banerjee government” and “barred any coercive action against the doctor."
Mamata’s failure in implementing non-pharmaceutical interventions — that have been touted as the only effective way of breaking the contagion chain — placed Bengal at a disadvantage in the battle against the pandemic. Her negligence and reluctance in enforcing strict lockdown measures (see here, here and here) likely aided the spread, and the dressing up of data is a desperate attempt to stop that reality from shaping the narrative.
It is clear that in obstructing the Centre’s fact-finding team, Mamata wanted to use federalism as an excuse to avoid scrutiny. This is a political ploy that India, much less Bengal, cannot afford. Sunlight, after all, is the best disinfectant. Instead of trying to thwart Centre’s efforts, the chief minister should double down on collaborative attempts and present a united front. The pandemic demands no less.

I've read of several failures of the Wix and Magnefine type filters, some
catastrophic, some minor leaks, but how about the spin-on types such as
B&M? Are they more reliable than the plastic housing type filters?
Where are you reading of these failures? I have used several and no issues. Awhile ago some Magnefine filters may have had a tiny leak around the threads but the newer ones heat seal the threads.
The Magnefine have a magnet in the middle of the ATF flow and 35 micron media filter. The spin on ones have no magnet and maybe 15 micron media filter.


The Lord of Virulence has an aura to help improve Armour Penetration. Here is a quick preview this morning and how you can combine the aura with a stratagem to make it even more effective.
The new Death Guard Codex comes to pre-orders this Saturday.
Clad in ancient Terminator armour and with a vicious twin plague spewer in hand, the Lord of Virulence is a supporting commander par excellence with a host of abilities for improving the Marines they lead into battle. As an expert in artillery and long-range bombardment, the ranged Plague Weapons carried by nearby troops reach new levels of efficiency thanks to the Lord’s Master of Destruction ability.
Combined with Plague Weapons’ ability to re-roll wound rolls of 1, your Core units will have an easier time than ever inflicting a barrage of wounds that bypass the flimsy armour of the Corpse-Emperor’s teeming masses. If dishing out mortal wounds is on the cards, their peerless ability to direct artillery fire allows them to reduce the cost of the Blight Bombardment Stratagem by 1CP.


Help with energy costs will be less generous from April, with bills for a typical household going up to £3,000.
However, there will be more support for the most vulnerable.
The assistance provided to businesses is also expected to reduce from March.
What extra support will be available?
From April, some groups across the UK will receive cash payments to help with energy costs:
- £900 to households on means-tested benefits
- £300 for pensioner households
- £150 to people on certain disability benefits
Further details will follow.
What is the energy price guarantee and how is it changing?
Under the current energy price guarantee, a household using a typical amount of gas and electricity will pay £2,500 annually.
The guarantee began in October and was originally meant to last for two years, before the government said it would end in April 2023.
Chancellor Jeremy Hunt then said the guarantee would continue, increasing by £500 to £3,000 from April.
Without government support, the average energy bill would have risen to £4,279 in January 2023, regulator Ofgem said.
Previously, Ofgem set the maximum suppliers could charge households per unit of energy.
But after prices soared in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the government announced its price guarantee would replace this energy cap.

The GRACE Cold Gas System uses Nitrogen as medium, which is stored in two tanks at an initial pressure of 350 bar. This upstream pressure is reduced to the thruster valve working pressure of approximately 1.5 bar by a Pressure Regulator. For redundancy reasons, the two branches can be operated individually. Attitude control around the roll, pitch and yaw axis is performed by 3 sets of 4 thrusters with a nominal thrust force of 10 mN. The attitude control thrusters are nominally operated in pairs which are accommodated such, that force free reaction control is achieved. For orbit maintenance, two 40 mN thrusters are mounted on the anti-flight direction side with the force vector pointing through the satellite center of gravity. The cold gas system housekeeping sensor set consists of two Pressure Transducers, one for the high pressure part and one for the low pressure part, and temperature sensors on both tanks and every thruster.

Dates. In scones. It is tasty. This was my first time baking with dates and it certainly won’t be the last. They add a delicious caramel-like flavor, and in this recipe I include them in two forms: chopped dates and date syrup. YUM. To develop the base for this recipe I used machine learning. You can read more about how I do that here and here. That explains some of the strange ingredient amounts below. Also, if you were wondering, the name of this recipe can be interpreted as either “Save the Date” Scones or “Save the Date Scones! They’re gonna get eaten!”. Needless to say, these are a tasty treat any date of the year.
And now, I present to you, the recipe. If you make it I’d love to see your pictures. Tag me on Instagram at @sararob.
Save the Date SconesDifficulty: Easy
2 cups self-rising flour (232 grams). If you don’t have this, you can make it by mixing regular flour with baking soda and salt.
2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour (22 grams)
2.5 tablespoons demerara sugar (34 grams). You can use any type of brown sugar instead.
2 teaspoons granulated or caster sugar (10 grams)
1/3 teaspoon baking powder
4 tablespoons butter (46 grams)
2 tablespoons lightly beaten egg (30 grams)
1/2 teaspoon olive or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons sour cream, room temperature (32 grams)
3 tablespoons heavy cream (42 grams)
1/8 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons date syrup, I love Soom
1/3 cup chopped medjool dates (85 grams). These should be pitted and soaked in hot water (see method)
- Preheat the oven to 425 F / 220 C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons beaten egg, oil, sour cream, heavy cream, and vanilla until fully combined and no lumps remain. Set aside. It may seem strange not to use a full egg, but just roll with it.
- Place the dates in a bowl and cover them with hot water (doesn’t need to be boiling). Set aside and let soften.
- In a large bowl, whisk both flours, sugars, and baking powder until combined. With your hands, mix small chunks of butter until integrated into the flour mixture and no large pieces remain. Pour in the wet ingredients and combine with a spoon. Once the mixture starts to combine, knead with your hands for 1-2 minutes until most of the flour is incorporated. It will still be a bit dry. Do not fear, moisture is coming.
- Drizzle the date syrup over the dough mixture and incorporate with your hands, 1 teaspoon at a time until the dough has a nice marbled look.
- On a clean work surface, roll out the dough until it is about 2cm (3/4 inch) thick. With a 5cm (2 inch) circular cutter, cut circles out of the dough. If you don’t have a circular cutter you can use the top of a glass, or you can make these triangular scones (see the notes). Once you’ve cut as many circles as you can, re-roll the dough and cut again.
- Place the scones on a baking sheet and bake for 12-13 minutes until the scones are golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack. They taste the best served fresh out of the oven with a bit of butter. Enjoy!
- I’m a big fan of measuring ingredients in grams. Would highly recommend for this (or any other) recipe!
- You can also make these as triangular scones. Roll the dough into a circle roughly 2cm (3/4 inch) thick, and slice as you would a pizza. Baking time will be slightly longer than the recipe calls for, about 3-4 minutes more.
