Black is always the new black. If you aren't expecting your table to suffer wear and tear choose the most sophisticated and elegant table you've always dreamed of owning. Black tables are notoriously tricky especially if they are veneered because the smallest scratch will show up. If you are the careful type however black is super cool and will always be so.

The dream bath: Greek island idyll. Is escaping to a private whitewashed cottage in Mykonos your idea of heaven? Re‐create the look at home with a pared‐down palette of blue and white along with a few classically Greek details. American Clay makes real clay plaster that can be tinted in any hue and applied to your walls for a gorgeous textured look. Keep a small potted herb garden in the windowsill for fragrance and beauty. Try thyme oregano or mint. If you have enough sun and space you could even bring in a potted lemon tree. Sinkside choose handmade pottery to hold soap and toothbrushes. A classic Greek key print on the edges of towels or trimming window shades would be a nice finishing touch.

Repeat the pattern on twin or triplet beds. Here an electric paisley pattern repeated on three beds and window treatments enlivens the room. Use remnants for a unique patchwork design. Creative decorator Cherie Marcel didn't let her fabric samples go to waste; instead she used them to fashion a fabulous headboard. Allow the patterned headboard to be the star of the bedscape. Keep the duvet and shams solid and with minimal detailing like this hotel‐style bedding and use a minimal amount of coordinating throw pillows. Coordinate with a bed skirt or a bed platform to create continuity. Pay attention to the way the pattern relates to the headboard's shape. Here the vertical stripes emphasize the point at the top of the headboard. Note the way the stripes on the bed skirt and the headboard align. If you don't have a headboard create the illusion of one by hanging a quilt on the wall above the bed. It can cozy up a room and create interesting proportions with dramatic height.

While many dressing tables are fussy frilly or just too girly for my taste here I've gathered some of my favorite modern‐looking dressing tables to share with you. Whether you're planning to set up a dressing table in your bedroom in the bathroom or nearby these ideas will surely inspire your space. If you're on the lookout for a dressing table and crave sleek lines the deco design of the table shown here with its wood finish and simple design speaks to those of us with a modern taste. This dressing table in a room adjacent to the bedroom is glamorous without being fussy. If you're considering using a similar setup for your dressing area painting the two spaces the same color will unify the rooms. If you crave color consider purchasing an older dressing table and painting it to fit your needs. If a matching chair isn't included in the deal buy one that fits well with the table and paint it to match. The gorgeous natural light in this bathroom makes it the perfect space for a small dressing table. Medicine cabinet–style mirrors above the dressing table provide storage and give this dressing table a built‐in look. A dressing table chair is the perfect place for a nice bright splash of color. If your prefer to keep things monochromatic upholstering the dressing table chair in the same shade as the wall will make a simple statement.

Soak in the sunset. For this bathroom Crisp chose a vintage black claw‐foot tub. "Who wouldn't want to relax in a hot bath while gazing into the sunset across the rolling hills?" he asks. Highlight the positive. "Prior to its remodel this master bathroom had a built‐in vanity and tub surround that started at the entry door by the sinks and was carried all the way around to the shower" says Susan Brown of Susan E. Brown Interior Design. "By using a freestanding bathtub and separate vanities I knew the space would be opened up yet still feel cohesive with the integration of similar colors and finishes". She adds that "having negative space surrounding the tub gives more emphasis to it as the pièce de résistance of the room. I continued to emphasize that aspect with hidden accent lighting that shines through the onyx tub deck and down onto the iridescent turquoise glass tiles creating an 'incredible soft glow ' as my client put it".

I'm advocating breaking one of my design rules. Well I don't really believe in strict design rules but generally I try to keep big investment pieces (like beds) neutral solid and classic and bring in prints patterns bolder colors and trendy fabrics via less permanent items like rugs throw pillows duvet covers and window treatments. However these gorgeous patterned headboards have been screaming for my attention and I cannot ignore them any longer. Would you sleep beneath a patterned headboard? If so what kind of textile or pattern would you use? Let me know in the Comments section! Go bold and go for height – dynamic fabrics and exaggerated verticality on a headboard can change the entire feeling of a room. These brilliant textiles add to the Moroccan style of this home and the wall behind them painted up to chair‐rail height tricks the eye distorting how we perceive the colors and proportions. Extend the headboard to new heights to show off a beautiful fabric on it and your shams. It would have been a design travesty not to show off this beautiful suzani fabric. Match a sham or another pillow to the headboard. This will give the bedscape a continuous look vertically like these damask‐pattern shams do. To tie a larger area to the bed extend the headboard behind nightstands. A bold trellis pattern grounds this bed with the appropriate scale. You don't have to use fabric to execute this idea. At the Upward Bound House interior designer Vanessa De Vargas used wallpaper to create the look of an extended headboard. You can also use a special traditional fabric. Design Sponge blogger Grace Bonney helped educate the masses about traditional Mexican Otomi embroidery with her famous DIY headboard.

Be well read. "My client had seen a wallpaper at a hotel with a book pattern that she loved " says designer Angela Gutekunst. "So that led me to this classic Brunschwig & Fils paper for her powder bath that worked beautifully".
Edda Braune Bedroom September 18th, 2017
This gray and pink room is perfect for a sweet little baby girl. But switch out that crib and add some toy storage and it's also perfect for a growing girl. The books and knickknacks on the shelf will change but the bright colors multipurpose furniture and neutral walls and floors can grow and morph until college. A black wall makes for a very sophisticated nursery (with lot of opportunity for bright pops of color). Use chalkboard paint and this becomes the perfect graffiti wall for ages 2 to 18. Another black accent wall in a nursery. With the classic Eames rocker and the simple neutral decor this baby room could could last through college. Bright walls and fun patterns make sense for a long time. The black and white ceiling stripes stimulate an infant's brain and they still make sense for a teenager who wants to turn the room into a punk rock palace. More classic furniture combined with bright color. The Frames wallpaper by Taylor & Wood transforms the wall into an interactive constantly changing canvas.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology
By E. Trienen 2005-12-13 05:58:36 PM
RFID is a generic term for technologies that use radio waves to automatically identify people or objects. There are several methods of identification, but the most common is to store a serial number that identifies a person or object, and perhaps other information, on a microchip that is attached to an antenna (the chip and the antenna together are called an RFID transponder, or an RFID tag).

Stannard’s rock, lying about twenty-three miles southeast of Manitou Island light, is the most serious danger to navigation in Lake Superior. This shoal is about three-fourths of a mile in extent; it rises two and a half to three feet above the water, and is fifteen or twenty feet in diameter. Its exact locality is known to but few; being so far from land it is seldom seen, and is much dreaded by all navigators. The increasing commerce of the lakes will, at no distant day, demand that it be marked by a light-house, the construction of which will, from the circumstances of its location, be a serious engineering difficulty. As a preliminary to this, and to render navigators familiar with its location, the board recommend that it be marked by a day-beacon, to be composed of a single wrought-iron shaft, not less than one foot in diameter, surmounted by a cage that would be visible not less than five or six miles.
On March 2, 1867, Congress provided $10,000 to erect a day beacon on Stannard Rock, and in June 1868, the steam barge Wm. Cowie, fitted with a hoisting apparatus, living quarters, and a blacksmith shop, arrived at the reef with the necessary materials. Over the next month, the rock was leveled and a stone conical frustum was built around an eighteen-and-a-half-foot-tall iron shaft topped by a spherical cage with a diameter of six feet.
In 1871, Orlando M. Poe, the recently appointed engineer of the eleventh lighthouse district, recommended a lighthouse be built on the reef:
The rapid increase of the commerce between Du Luth, the eastern terminus of the Northern Pacific Railroad, and the lower lakes, will demand, at no distant day, the erection of a Light-house on this danger, so much dreaded by all vessels bound to or from points above Keweenaw Point and ports below. The case will be similar to that of Spectacle Reef, and all the costly apparatus and machinery purchased for the latter can be made available for the former, thereby greatly reducing the cost of construction.
It is not proposed, however, to do anything further at this time than to make the preliminary examinations and mature plans for the work, for which purpose an estimate of $20,000 is submitted.
Congress provided $10,000 on March 3, 1873 for “surveys and examinations to determine the practicability of building a light-house on Stannard’s Rock,” and that August, Henry Gillman visited the reef and selected a site atop the rock where the depth was most regular, varying from ten to twelve feet, as the site for a lighthouse. Godfrey Weitzel, who had replaced Poe as district engineer, estimated that the erection of a lighthouse and fog signal would cost at least $300,000 and requested $200,000 to begin the work. The need for a fog signal at the reef was evidenced by a report, made by the keeper at Manitou Island Lighthouse, which noted that during the month of June 1874 there were only five fog-free days in the vicinity of Stannard Rock.
Before Congress finally appropriated $50,000 on March 3, 1877 to commence construction of the lighthouse, Weitzel had the governor of Michigan convey title to the submarine lighthouse site to the federal government. On June 1, 1877, the lighthouse tender Warrington left Detroit with two scows in tow and stopped at Scammon’s Harbor to pick up the equipment and support buildings used for the construction of Spectacle Reef Lighthouse. Roughly two weeks later, the Warrington arrived at Huron Bay, where work began on a depot named Stannardsville, which would have all the necessary quarters, docks, and shops for supporting the project. Construction of the wooden protection crib used for building the lighthouse began in July 1877, and in August, the bottom portion was taken out and fitted to the reef and then returned to the depot and built up to a height of fourteen courses. That fall, a quarry was opened up on Huron Island to provide stone for ballast and concrete.
At 4:30 a.m. on August 4, 1878, the steamers Warrington and Ira Chaffee and the tug Dudley started for the reef with the protection crib in tow and arrived there at 11 a.m. the following day. The crib was placed in position on August 7, and the work of filling its ballast pockets commenced. Over the next two years, a foundation pier, having a diameter of sixty-two feet and consisting of concrete encased in a wrought-iron cylinder, was built inside the protection crib. When completed in August 1880, the foundation pier rose twenty-three feet above the lake, weighed 7,246 tons, and its upper portion contained two rooms, the lower for coal and the upper for a workshop.
Workers returned to the lighthouse on May 24, 1882, and for the rest of that month, fifteen men were engaged in clearing the ice, which covered the foundation pier and the lower eighteen feet of the tower. During the month of June, the spiral staircase and lantern room were put in place, allowing the lens to be installed in time to exhibit the light for the first time on July 4, 1882. The tower’s second-order Fresnel lens, manufactured by Henry-LePaute in France, was equipped with twelve flash panels and revolved to produce a white flash every thirty seconds.
Stannard Rock Lighthouse stands seventy-eight feet tall and exhibits its light at a height of 102 feet above Lake Superior. The tower tapers from a diameter of twenty-nine feet at the pier to just under eighteen feet at the lantern room, while the seven floors inside the tower all have a diameter of fourteen feet.
During the 1883 season, a few remaining work items were completed at the station, including the installation of boat-hoisting engines, chocks for the station’s sailboats to set in, and a lightning conductor. Removal of the wooden protection pier was completed on September 7, 1883.
The station’s twin ten-inch steam whistles were housed in the lighthouse until 1888 when a fog signal building was constructed atop the pier against the southeast side of the tower. The structure was built with steel plate riveted to a steel frame, and the main door of the tower was accessed via a flight of open iron stairs from inside the fog signal building.
John Pasque, who had been serving as head keeper at Sturgeon Point Lighthouse, accepted a transfer to become the first head keeper at the higher paying Stannard Rock Lighthouse. After one season, Keeper Pasque transferred to Michigan Island Lighthouse, and John Armbruster, the head keeper at Outer Island Lighthouse, took charge of Stannard Rock for just one month before returning to Outer Island.
The next three head keepers were brothers, who each managed to cope with life at the remote lighthouse for multiple seasons. James Prior served as head keeper from 1883 to 1888, before being transferred to Duluth, and then George Prior, who had been serving as one of his brother’s assistant, took charge of the station until being transferred to Grand Island Harbor Lighthouse in 1893. William H. Prior, the third and oldest of the three siblings, served as head keeper from 1893 to 1896, before accepting a transfer to Big Bay Point Lighthouse.
Keeper Edward Chambers, the next head keeper, and his three assistants didn’t learn that Theodore Roosevelt had been elected President of the United States until five weeks after the 1904 election. The Hamford Fish Company of Marquette had been contracted to remove the keepers from Stannard Rock Lighthouse on November 26, 1904, but they sent their tug to Duluth to engage in mackerel fishing and instead hired the tug Ward to retrieve the keepers. Delayed towing barges, the Ward didn’t make it out to the rock until December 14, by which time the four keepers had consumed all their provisions. In fact, the men had spent the previous night making a canvas sail for the station’s yawl, and, faced with starvation, had planned to attempt a likely suicidal journey to shore in the tiny craft.
On August 1, 1913, the intensity of Stannard Rock Light was increased from 59,000 to 330,000 candlepower by changing the illuminant from oil to incandescent oil vapor. That same year, a concrete fog signal house was built, and an electric siren was installed in it, replacing the antiquated steam whistles. The fog signal was changed to an air diaphone on November 6, 1922.
A flock of ducks flew into the lantern room at 3 a.m. on November 6, 1921, smashing two of the upper panes and sending glass pieces all over the lens and clock room. Flying glass broke the mantel on the vapor lamp and chipped a few of the prisms in the lens. Four of the ducks were killed instantly – three fell outside the lantern room and one was found inside.
When the keepers returned to the station at the opening of navigation in 1922, they found that most of the wrought-iron sheathing protecting the concrete pier had been torn away by ice during the winter. During the next two years, three-foot radial anchor trusses were attached to the pier and covered with steel plates, and the space between the pier and steel plates was then filled with concrete. This new layer of protection extended from bedrock to eighteen feet above the surface of the lake, and the remaining upper section of the pier was incased in concrete without a protective steel covering.
While the work on the pier was being performed, a radiotelephone was installed at the station so the keepers could communicate with their counterparts at Marquette Harbor Lighthouse. The usefulness of the shortwave radio was demonstrated on July 28, 1928, when Keeper Lawrence Pederson reported seeing an apparently disabled fishing boat about three miles from the lighthouse. The Coast Guard was informed of the sighting, and when a boat was reported missing from Munising the following day, a search was launched that found the boat fifteen miles from Stannard Rock Lighthouse.
The keepers at Marquette were gracious enough to read letters, telegrams, and important items from the morning paper over the radiotelephone to help those at Stannard Rock maintain contact with the world. The Stannard Rock keepers would also use the radiotelephone to check on weather conditions before they began the multi-hour trip to or from the station.
In 1929, Keeper Lawrence Pedersen made the following report of one of the worst storms to strike Lake Superior:
The condition of the weather during the latter part of November at Stannard Rock Lighthouse was the worst that I have ever experienced in my 30 years or more on the Great Lakes. It started in with light snow squalls from southwest on the 22d but gradually shifted to north on the 26th and blowing very fresh. On the 27th and 28th it blew a gale from northwest and snow squalls on and off and very cold. On the 29th it blew a gale from west…the worst gale that I have ever known at the station. The spray went over the dome every minute and plate glass outside of lantern became a solid mass of ice. I tied the vapor light down with wire, but as the mantles were thrown off faster than I could put them up I decided to change, and I put in the old wick burner lamp and this also had to be tied down.
We had to use the steam hose night and day during those days to thaw out trumpets and all outside piping, and to be ready to sound signal if it should be needed. Our aerial wire went down three times from the weight of ice. We repaired same twice, but when it came down again on December 1 we had no more wire to repair with.
The record for the longest service at Stannard Rock belongs to Elmer Sormunen, who served as an assistant at the station for twenty one years followed by one year as head keeper. Keeper Sormunen, who had earlier served at Passage Island and Fort Gratiot, applied for retirement after the 1957 season due to a recent illness and surgery. During his first year at Stannard Rock, Keeper Sormunen and Louis DeRusha, a fellow assistant, set off for the station from Marquette in a forty-foot motorboat on April 29. En route to the lighthouse, the pair encountered a severe snowstorm and high waves. Due to a faulty compass, they missed the station and were forced to return to Marquette. At 6:30 p.m., their boat struck a bar forty miles from Marquette and sprang a leak. By manning the pumps, the keepers were able to keep their boat from sinking, but the rising water inside the boat fouled the ignition, forcing the men to drop anchor and ride out the storm near Huron Island. Suffering from exposure, fatigue, and hunger, the men finally made it back to Marquette after a forty-eight-hour battle that they were “lucky to be able to tell about.”
Stannard Rock Lighthouse was electrified in 1944 through the installation of generators and an array of batteries. A 500-watt light bulb took the place of the oil vapor lamp, and a small motor took over the job of rotating the lens.
On the night of June 18, 1961, a massive explosion, fueled by over a thousand gallons of propane and gasoline, ripped through the rooms in the upper portion of the pier and started a fire that swept up into the tower. Richard Horne, who was asleep in the lighthouse, was thrown from his bunk, and Oscar Daniels, who was standing in the doorway leading to the pier, received burns on his face, legs, and arms. Walter Scobie was hurled through the air by the blast but received no injuries. Scobie and Horne dropped roughly fifteen feet from windows in the lighthouse to escape the fire and reach the concrete apron encircling the tower.
Three days after the explosion, the Coast Guard cutter Woodrush arrived at the lighthouse to determine why the station had not been in radio contact with shore and found three keepers huddled in a makeshift shelter atop the pier. Unable to return to the lighthouse due to smoke and fumes that filled the structure, the men subsisted on two cans of beans until help arrived. “It was like seeing God when the Woodrush showed up,” said Richard Horne. “Scobie and I probably could have made it longer, but I don’t know about Daniels.” The Woodrush took Daniels to Houghton for medical attention and then returned to Stannard Rock to extinguish the blaze that was still smoldering in the coal bins located in the top of the pier. William A. Maxwell, the station’s commander and father of four, was killed during the Father’s Day explosion and fire. The surviving keepers believe he was either blown off the pier or burned in the fire. After the accident, the Fresnel lens was removed and automatic equipment was installed in Stannard Rock Lighthouse.
The tower’s second-order Fresnel lens, one of just five of that size to serve on the Great Lakes, was placed on display at the Marquette Maritime Museum in 1999, and the following year crewmembers aboard the Coast Guard buoy tender Sundew removed the six-ton pedestal from the lighthouse to join the lens at the museum. The whereabouts of the lens was a mystery for several years until Fred Stonehouse, president of Marquette Maritime Museum, received word in August 1999 that the lens was likely at a Coast Guard warehouse in Maryland. Stonehouse flew to Maryland and found six large wooden crates boldly stenciled with “Soo St. Marie Coast Guard Base.” Closer examination revealed the very faint words “Stannard Rock Lens” on the box as well, proving that the missing artifact had been located. Prior to arriving in Maryland the previous year, the lens had been at the Coast Guard Academy at New London, Connecticut for a period of time.
On May 15, 2012, Stannard Rock Lighthouse was made available under the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act of 2000 to eligible organizations for educational, recreational, cultural, or historic preservation purposes. Interested entities were given two months to submit a letter of interest expressing their desire to submit an application for ownership. The lighthouse was deeded to Superior Watershed Partnership in November 2015. Superior Watershed Partnership plans to use the lighthouse as a base for Great Lakes climate research.

The owners of the Town & Country shopping center announced Thursday that a 14,000-square-foot Petco store will open there next year.
The new pet store was identified as a “junior anchor” by officials from Columbus-based Casto, co-owner of Town & Country. It will be located adjacent to the mall’s newest anchor, a 23,000-square-foot T.J. Maxx store, which is currently under construction and is slated to open next fall in the center of the retail complex. The Petco is scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2016, Casto officials said.
Petco operates a half-dozen pet stores around the Dayton area, including one at 2322 Far Hills Ave. in Oakwood that is less than two miles away from Town & Country shopping center. A manager at the Oakwood store referred questions about potential impact to his store to corporate officials, who could not be reached Thursday.
The shopping center on Stroop Road between Far Hills Avenue and Shroyer Road in Kettering is in the midst of a $7 million renovation that includes extensive changes to the shopping center’s interior, its facade, and to the parking lot, and added 2,500 square feet to an existing 10,000-square-foot Trader Joe’s grocery store.
Kettering city officials regard Town & Country and the surrounding area as a downtown of sorts. Kettering City Council approved a $700,000, five-year, forgivable loan to help pay for the retail center’s renovation. If the shopping center’s owners meet criteria, they would receive the grant when the renovation project is complete.
“A revitalized Town & Country is critical to the health of the retail market in the city of Kettering,” Gregg Gorsuch, Kettering’s economic development manager, said earlier this year when the renovation project was announced.

A new generation of apples is set to experience major growth. The first official season of Cosmic Crisp®, the innovative apple that has landed in Europe thanks to the VOG and VIP consortia – which cultivate it in South Tyrol - Südtirol – has now ended.
Following the first tests carried out during the past season, Cosmic Crisp made its debut on the market this year with the first 1200 tonnes, sold from February to late April.
“We are very satisfied – the feedback we received from buyers and end consumers, both in Italy and in all the countries where it was marketed, was positive, but in some cases very enthusiastic,” comments Klaus Hölzl, Sales Manager at the VOG Consortium.
“The schedule was respected, allowing us to be continuously present on the fruit and vegetable counters of the modern distribution and wholesale channel during the two planned months. Cosmic Crisp proved to be a very convincing apple from a sensory standpoint. Like a fine wine, it reaches its peak quality over time, becoming even tastier and more aromatic, so it is the perfect apple to be marketed in the second part of the season.”

Roll The Dice (Extended Mix)
The song was completed at Sunset Sound Studios in Los Angeles between November 1971 and March 1972. Jagger had finished the lyrics after speaking with a housekeeper about gambling in LA. He explained, "she liked to play dice and I really didn't know much about it. But I got it off of her and managed to make the song out of that." According to music journalist Bill Janovitz, it was "not pure kismet" that Jagger thought to speak to the housekeeper, saying he was "consciously turning over rocks, looking for something specific". Janovitz believes Jagger may already have had the idea for the "well-worn lover/gambler/rambler trope, but needed the particulars to come up with something like, 'I'm all sixes and sevens and nines'."
Roll The Dice (Extended Mix)
The song's lyrical structure is irregular. While many songs have the same number of lines for the verse or chorus, the first verse of "Tumbling Dice" has eight, the second six, and the third two lines. The song's first chorus has two lines, the second has three, and the third has twelve lines. At the beginning of each chorus, the piano, bass and drums drop out and the backing vocals sing "you got to roll me" as the guitar plays the song's signature guitar figure. The third chorus leads into the song's coda. Slowly, the band's rhythm section works its way back into the song. The coda includes a call and response with the backing vocals singing "you got to roll me" as Jagger and Richards respond by singing "keep on rollin'."
Several critics loved the tempo and groove of the single. Music critic Jack Garner asserted in a review for Courier Newsthat the song featured a "marvellous tempo". Shipley felt the song has an "irresistible singalong energy", describing the "breakdown and buildup into the final 'you got to roll me' refrain" as "sublime". Critic Bill Janovitz described "Tumbling Dice" in his 2014 book Rocks Off as the "Holy Grail of grooves".
Critics frequently considered "Tumbling Dice" to be one of the best songs on Exile. Oster asserted that "Tumbling Dice" was among the eight songs he would keep on Exile, using the others for "hairspray or frisbees". Kaye considered the single to be "a cherry on the first side" of Exile and the only song on the album that made "real moves towards a classic". Ultimate Classic Rock critic Kyle Dowling agreed, calling it a "true standout" of the album and calling it a "classic piece of rock and roll music", noting that it was a persistent favourite in live performances. Morgan agreed with Dowling, calling it a "classic". David Marchese wrote for Vulture that the song "achieves choogle nirvana", expressing surprise that despite a "near-consensus" that Exile on Main St. was the best Stones album, it did not produce any other big singles.
In 1977, Linda Ronstadt covered the song "Tumbling Dice" for her Simple Dreams studio album. In an interview with Hit Parader magazine, she said that her band played "Tumbling Dice" for sound checks, but nobody knew the words. Jagger thought Ronstadt should sing more rock and roll songs, suggested "Tumbling Dice", and wrote out the lyrics for her.
All hail the weight of 140bpm! It's definitely been getting more difficult to find forward thinking tracks at typical dubstep tempo, with the prevailing climate in 2011 seeing house and techno exert an irresistible gravitational pull upon most 'UK bass' producers. But there's something about the form's sheer density that can't be replicated as pace drops. That's partially down to its half-time/double-time dichotomy; as a fast dance music made to feel slow, it exerts a strange force on the body that seems to demand action at two speeds at once. While it can't help but recall the darkened days of 2005-6, and the intensity of early Loefah, Commodo's debut for Deep Medi is an reminder of just how fucking destructive dubstep can be when it's done well. The crunch of heavy machinery cuts through 'Saracen's featureless expanse; it's like the last two years of shimmering melodic fireworks never happened. 'Uprising' is another rarity these days, a roller without the slightest glimmer of two-step in sight. Its drive instead comes from the constant roll of congas, pushing the track incessantly forward.
Martin's first vinyl release as Hodge, for the ever-excellent Immerse imprint, is far darker, but no less slinky. Both 'Crush' and 'The Fall' take the traits that defined his music from the off - sliced 'n' diced vocals, a freewheeling, fits and starts approach to rhythm - and utilise them more successfully than ever before. Everything is beautifully integrated, jagged synths standing out in sharp relief against delicately swung percussion - these two tracks are simultaneously his most welcoming and most ruthlessly efficient so far. A fitting addition to the Immerse label's impeccable run of 2011 releases. 041b061a72

Our transmedia franchise will be based upon an upcoming new jewellery brand called Monkey King. This brand sells bracelets made with 100% natural semi-precious stones. Monkey King bracelets are made out of ten different types of stones, that are told to have their special effect on mind and body. All the stones are 100% natural, which makes every stone unique. We would like to use transmedia to market the Monkey King collection. The narrative core of our story will be the source of the brand’s name, which is one of the four Great Classical Novels of Chinese Literature, Journey to the West. It is a story about a monkey who was born out of a stone egg. The story of Journey to the West, which was written in the 16th century, is very popular in Asia and has been used in movies, TV series, comic books, console games, theatre plays and so on, up until today. However, none of these adaptations of the story had transmedia extensions and most creations are made for the Eastern-Asian market. We want to create a story world that will bring some of the Eastern spirituality into our Western lives.
The main media text will be an adventure TV series, based on the Journey to the West book, about the Monkey King. During the series we want him to encounter 10 other characters that personify the 10 different types of stones that are used for the bracelets; characters that portray the special abilities the stones are meant to have. There will also be extra story lines and important events that will revolve around the Monkey King ‘Specials’ collection (bracelets made with different sets of stones and other beads).
For the transmedia extension we have several ideas. First of all, we would like to create an App game for smartphones where the player is in Monkey King’s shoes and has to get him through different quests to learn new skills and unlock secret powers. Between the different levels there could be short clips, introducing the 10 different ‘stone type’ characters and giving them more of a background story. Also, we would like to create an interactive website where people could, for example, do a quiz that shows which character/type of stone suits their personality best and also an interactive map of the story world. This website will also be directly connected to the webshop. Furthermore, we could extend the brand by opening Monkey King Asian cuisine restaurants and Monkey King sports centers for martial arts in order for the customer to live the full Monkey King experience.
We want Monkey King jewellery and media to stand for uniqueness, strength and the Monkey King’s quest for enlightenment, yet refrain from being too ‘floaty’. Our message is to be aware of everything we have and to enjoy it to the fullest.
By team one – Selma, Mathilde, Karim and Jamilla


Yesterday I created a repeat pattern using lino print.. I've never tried a repeat pattern before so kept it very simple!
I decided to carve 3 shapes on the top row and 2 complete shapes on the bottom.. then came the tricky part of cutting two half shapes so the pattern would match up. It just about worked!
Love the simplicity of it but now I'm dreaming of an extravagant William Morris style pattern..

I’ll be lucky if a day goes by where I don’t hear someone calling someone else a racist.
With the mainstream media constantly keeping the word in use and blaming one person after another for this crime, it’s no wonder why this word won’t die.
Everyone on the left loves this word because it allows them to attack someone on the Right and make them feel guilty, in addition to putting themselves on a moral high ground at the same time.
Some of these accusers may not even believe that the person they’re accusing is an actual racist, but that won’t stop them from climbing up onto their soapbox. Used with a healthy dose of their own self-righteousness, the term sounds so good to say that they just can’t resist opening their mouth.
Back in the 70s and 80s, the word racist wasn’t tossed around by die-hard Liberals with such wild abandon as it is now.
Making an off-color joke to someone far left of center might get you a blank stare or a roll of the eyes. But it would not cause the other to boil with anger at your very words.
And why would it? You don’t threaten their very existence with a bad choice of words or because you told the wrong joke to the wrong person.
But try that nowadays and you’ll be met with scorn and hatred by the person on the Left and embarrassment by others who are afraid of being associated with something offensive to a certain group of people.
Sometimes the joke or comment goes too far and the embarrassment is warranted. But other times it comes as a reflex to what they’ve been instructed to feel by the media. And who doesn’t get exposed to our media day in and day out?
Racist is just a word. But it’s become a favorite buzzword in our society; a word that instantly makes people uncomfortable, willing to do anything to separate themselves from the stigma of being a racist.
In fact, being a racist these days ranks right under child molestation as far as bad acts go. You’d probably get more respect from most people if you were a murderer…just as long as you don’t murder a child.
That’s the way people in America think these days. And that’s just how screwed up a country we really are.
The reality is, if you hate somebody because of their race, it’s hate, plain and simple. It’s no different from hating somebody because they’re a Communist or because they remind you of someone from your past who did you wrong.
The only difference is that our country has turned racist into a highly-charged word which makes it all the more awful when someone is accused of being one.
It’s similar to calling someone a Nazi, even though 99.9% of the people being called that term, aren’t Nazis at all. But calling someone a Nazi immediately puts that label on them as a white supremacist…and a racist by association.
Lemme ask you this; is it any more wrong to not want to associate with old people because you don’t like them for whatever reason? No, of course not. But you don’t see people calling others ageists, do you?
That’s because the word doesn’t have the same negative connotation as the word, racist. Being a racist isn’t any worse than being an ageist, and yet most people won’t care if you are an ageist.
The only difference is that the word racist carries more emotional weight.
In the past, we were all able to laugh at ourselves and our racial and cultural differences. A TV show like All In The Family would always have the main character, Archie Bunker, play off of these stereotypes to produce laughs.
While there might have been a kernel of truth in the things he said, the fact that he would sometimes go overboard and overstate these stereotypes made it funny.
That show doesn’t go over so well anymore with the masses because many of them have forgot how to laugh at themselves. Others feel guilty about laughing along with a bigot.
Is this the way we really want to live; walking on broken glass as a society because we’re afraid of our differences?
It’s come to the point now where even comedians can’t tell off-color jokes like this anymore without getting booed because of their insensitivity towards others.
The Solution: Turn Off Your TV
What seems to be so evident for some people goes right over the head of others who believe whatever they’re told.
If the people on TV tell them something, they automatically assume it to be true. They never question it. They never research a topic. They simply act as they’re told to act.
This is scary as there are a lot of these people out there willing to believe what our Leftist media tells them to believe and will gleefully carry out their orders because of the power trip they get out of it.
What can be done about this? How can a country prosper with so many stupid people in it willing to take the bait?
How can we come together again as a country when one side is being programmed by the media to make others feel guilty about the things they say and do?
As I see it, there is no way out of this; at least not as long as our media is allowed to indoctrinate half the country into believing they have some kind of moral superiority over the rest of us.
In my opinion, we have gone way too far in the use of calling others racists. But people know it’s a powerful word that can be used as a weapon and so they continue to use it in every capacity possible because it gives them the power they are so desperately lacking in their lives.
We all need to put away this word and use it when it really holds some weight, and not just so we can feel good about ourselves and put us in a morally correct light.

text: Dame Ellen Terry, GBE (27 February 1847 – 21 July 1928) was an English stage actress who became the leading Shakespearean actress in Britain.Born into a family of actors, Terry began acting as a child in Shakespeare plays and continued as a teen, in London and on tour. At 16 she married the much-older artist George Frederic Watts, but they separated within a year. She was soon acting again but began a relationship with the architect Edward William Godwin and retired from the stage for six years. She returned to acting in 1874 and was immediately acclaimed for her portrayal of roles in Shakespeare and other classics.In 1878 she joined Henry Irving's company as his leading lady, and for more than the next two decades she was considered the leading Shakespearean and comic actress in Britain. Two of her most famous roles were Portia in The Merchant of Venice and Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing. She and Irving also toured with great success in America and Britain.In 1903 Terry took over management of London's Imperial Theatre, focusing on the plays of George Bernard Shaw and Henrik Ibsen. The venture was a financial failure, and Terry turned to touring and lecturing. She continued to find acting success until 1920, while also appearing in films until 1922. Her career lasted nearly seven decades.

NHL Morning Coffee Headlines – July 12, 2019
Phil Kessel sparks a surge in Coyotes ticket sales, the latest contract signings, and more in today’s NHL morning coffee headlines.
ARIZONA REPUBLIC: The Coyotes’ recent acquisition of Phil Kessel sparked a 600 percent surge in tickets sales for the week following the trade compared to the same week a year ago. That included a 550 percent spike in season-ticket sale.
SPECTOR’S NOTE: It’s been years since the Coyotes had an established sniper like Kessel. They’re hoping he’ll provide a much-needed scoring boost that propels them into the playoffs for the first time since 2012. If he does, the Coyotes can expect a healthier surge in season-ticket sales next summer.
MONTREAL GAZETTE: The Canadiens yesterday avoided salary arbitration with forwards Joel Armia and Artturi Lehkonen, signing each to two-year contracts. Armia’s deal is worth $5.2 million ($2.6-million annual average value) while Lehkonen’s is worth $4.8 million ($2.4 million AAV). The Habs now have over $4.84 million in cap space.
SPECTOR’S NOTE: The Habs still have plenty of wiggle room if they want to bolster their left-side defense or bring in another scoring forward via trade. They could also make another depth signing via free agency.
SPORTSDAY: The Dallas Stars re-signed center Jason Dickinson to a two-year, $3-million contract.
NBC SPORTS: The San Jose Sharks re-signed centers Dylan Gambrell and Antti Suomela. Gambrell got a two-year deal and Suomela one year. Each have an annual average value of $700K. Gambrell’s deal is a two-way in the first year and one-way in the second.
ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER: The Anaheim Ducks signed defenseman Michael Del Zotto to a one-year, $750K contract.
VANCOUVER SUN: Alex Burrows will join the Canucks’ Ring of Honour on December 3. He spent 12 seasons in Vancouver.
NBC SPORTS: Paul Holmgren is no longer the team president of the Philadelphia Flyers. He’s now a senior advisor to Comcast Spectacor chairman and CEO Dave Scott. General manager Chuck Fletcher takes over from Holmgren as president.
EDMONTON JOURNAL: The Oilers hired Tyler Wright as their new director of amateur scouting. Wright held the same position with the Detroit Red Wings. Archie Henderson was also hired to be their new director of pro scouting.

Public Health and General Preventive Medicine
A Preventive Medicine Specialist is a medical doctor acquiring additional specialist qualifications enabling advanced focus on the health of people within defined populations to promote and maintain health and well-being, and to impede disability, disease, and unnatural death. These doctors may be specialists in General Preventive Medicine, Occupational Medicine, Aerospace Medicine, or Public Health.
The distinctive sub-components of Preventive Medicine include:
- Environmental health factors
- Occupational health factors
- General health services administration
- Assessments of cultural, social, and behavioral influences on health
- Developing and evaluating health policies and procedures, population disease and health management programs, and regulatory/legislative processes to enhance health
In general, all doctors practice elements of preventive medicine when managing their patients. The difference lies in the scope and scale of the patients treated by the specialty. Public Health and Preventive Medicine aims to treat an entire community or a specific population and not just one patient. Using the knowledge that they have about populations in the form of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, these specialists advise or manage an entire community and draft health programs or policies. Public Health and Preventive Medicine may also be called Community Medicine is some places.
Public Health and Preventive Medicine specialists are health advocates and leaders who look at the concept of health from a holistic perspective. They take into consideration broad aspects that affect health including the environment, economy, education, culture, politics, and others.
Examples of public health solutions to community public health problems:
- The implementation of immunization programs set by the public healthcare officials for infants and for other identified special populations.
- The implementation of isolation or quarantine procedures to contain spreads of infection especially during times of outbreaks or epidemics.
- Health standards for driver’s licenses or pilots

US Event Unites Space and Business Leaders To Maximise Returns On Earth
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, USA, August 22, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — As space technology extends its influence into mainstream industry, The Economist is proud to announce its first ever Space Economy Summit on October 11th in Los Angeles. This landmark event, part of the acclaimed Economist Impact events series, will foster connections between leaders in space and leaders across multiple industries, government and science. Scheduled for October 11th in-person and continuing virtually on October 12th, the event promises to be a hub for groundbreaking ideas, innovations, and collaborative opportunities.
A bridge between space and earth
While space has always captured imagination, its commercial, social, and environmental potential is now more tangible than ever. SpaceX has achieved reusable rocket technology, unlocking more affordable access to space, and satellite networks provide global broadband internet. Space-based sensors also deliver unprecedented climate change data.
As the space industry continues to advance, the Space Economy Summit will highlight the vast opportunities it is enabling across sectors. Attendees from agriculture, pharmaceuticals, mining, insurance, finance, maritime, and more can expect to gain valuable industry-specific insights on how they can leverage space technology and innovation
The summit boasts a lineup of over 100 renowned speakers, including Peter Beck, President and chief executive officer, Rocket Lab; Dr Laurie Leshin, Director, NASA JPL; Sir Martin Rees, UK Astronomer Royal; Lt. Gen. John E. Shaw of United States Space Command, and Dylan Taylor, Chairman and CEO of Voyager Space. With over 60 sessions, the event is expected to draw over 400 in-person attendees and an additional 1000+ joining online.
“Today, space is everyone’s business. The rapid expansion of the industry presents immense opportunities to collaborate across all sectors” said Helen Ponsford, Head of Trade, Technology, Industry Events Programming at The Economist. “We are excited that the Space Economy Summit will facilitate pivotal conversations about realising the full potential of new space. Speakers and attendees alike will leave with actionable ideas to help accelerate innovation in the space economy.”
From payloads to payback
The event’s agenda encompasses a vast range of insightful sessions covering the most compelling topics and promising areas of investment in the space economy. From earth observation industry case studies, space debris and sustainability, to the future of in-space manufacturing, the agenda dives deep into the topics that will define the space industry’s trajectory. Attendees can expect a comprehensive discourse that gets to the heart of the challenges and opportunities facing long term space commercialisation and exploration.

It's the beginning of July, where is the year going, so it's time for a new challenge at
As usual it is anything goes.
Our sponsor this month is Scrapmatts and Papertole Australia, I have used some of their products in my project this month
The base is an MDF kit from Creative Expression called Driftwood. I have to say it doesn't look much in the packet but I am really please with it finished. It comes in 6 pieces which I covered in wood effect paper. I sanded this down and distressed it with pumice stone and frayed burlap distress inks.I then decided it needed a little blue to bring back the beach theme so I added some mermaid lagoon. Then I assembled it putting one of the narrow panels across the front for added dimension.
The film reel, main photo decoration and the wording tiles are all from our sponsors and I distressed those to to match the background. The grasses are real ones collected from a field close to my house. I think they finished it off really well.
Please pop over to the blog and see the lovely creations by my fellow team mates, and if you join in you could win a prize from our sponsor.

Perhaps most notable are London's iconic new skyscrapers popularly renamed for their shapes. The Shard is the Renzo Piano-designed 87-storey sheath piercing the sky. (And shattering sales records, reportedly, for its condominium apartments.)
As the record-breaking numbers of children deprived of opportunity in crisis situations continues to grow, the investment and attention to these issues has not kept pace.
Throughout the 21st century, China's ties with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) have strengthened in various domains. China and the UAE's growing relationship is a case in point.
Perhaps the most significant similarity between the Florence of yesterday and present-day Dubai is their surroundings. Just like Florence was home to the Renaissance when darkness dominated Europe, Dubai is a beacon of hope and enlightenment when we look at what is happening in neighboring Arab and Muslim countries.
When I recently visited Bahrain, the TSA agent reviewing my passport looked at me curiously and asked me, "Why did you visit Bahrain?" Simple answer: The Kingdom of Bahrain is a great extension to a Dubai or an Abu Dhabi trip. The flights are inexpensive and under an hour.
A three-minute video, posted by a Saudi government-backed organization to YouTube on June 4, has garnered 150,000 views in 48 hours and sparked a discussion in the kingdom about how to stem sectarian conflict.
I've been spending time in Dubai with students and others involved in developing the next generation of the region's journalists. Everyone means well and is working hard, but I sense that these young people may slip into old patterns.
That's his nickname, acquired being first on the scene to shoot the effects of booby-trapped cars during his native Lebanon's civil war.
Just a few days before this year's Festival de Cannes, those of us who watch, love and write about Arab cinema received a press release from Abu Dhabi that seemed like just another announcement.
Last week, we gave you the low down on just how low hotel rates can go. And we pleasantly discovered they can get quite low; all 10 properties that made our "cheapest hotels" list cost $22/night or less!
It may be time for the world to acknowledge that these questions are increasingly meaningless and "Human Being, Planet Earth" may be the only identifier that matters.
What drives an issue home each and every time is when it is made personal, when the headlines become faces, or in this case when the refugees of war, hunger, religion or politics, turn into human beings -- just like you and me.
Still a bit to go until the Palme d'Or and Un Certain Regard prizes are announced in Cannes, and speculations are aplenty regarding the winners. Some say the festival was devoid of great works of art, others complained about the Festival de Cannes typical bureaucracy.
Broadcast media are under intense pressure, given tight deadlines, security threats, competition and shrinking budgets. The key challenges are: How do we define media ethics and who sets the standards when the journalism of terror is becoming the new normal?
Once in Cannes, I hit the ground running. Picked up my credentials, again a flirt fest of pat-downs, s'il vows plaît madame and merci's, and went to visit the United Arab Emirates pavilion, which has seen some changes.
Toss some hot political issues, mix in religious extremism, factor some ethical considerations and blend in innovation to produce the most sought-after ticket in Arab media events.

I obviously can't start this thing so... @deth take your best shot :tough:
With the release on Pokemon Sun & Moon later this year, which mega evolutions do you hope will be introduced?
For me, I'd love mega Arcanine.
and a bunch of other not-so-good Pokemon should get them too, it'll make them more viable. Clawitzer, Qwilfish...

European Tour pros have urged the Hong Kong government not to close one of the most popular venues on the tour’s schedule.
The future of the three 18-hole courses at Fanling are under serious threat, with the government’s Task Force on Land Supply set to decide shortly whether to keep the facility or demolish it to make way for large-scale public housing.
In what was perhaps a message to the Hong Kong government, Asian Tour pros recently voted the Honma Hong Kong Open as the best tournament of 2018 and the Hong Kong Golf Club’s Championship Course as the best golf course of the year.
And Chris Paisley, who has played in two of the last three tournaments, said its closure would be ‘a golfing tragedy’.
Losing Fanling would be a golfing tragedy 😢 One of my favourite courses of all time! https://t.co/9geLnoGNcH— Chris Paisley (@ChrisPaisley86) December 17, 2018
The tweet was ‘liked’ by fellow pros Oliver Wilson, Richie Ramsay and Alejandro Canizares, while Scott Hend, the 2014 Hong Kong Open champion, tweeted this:
I voted for it..... there is no other course in the same hemisphere that can compete with it on the Asian Tour Schedule..... The City, The Course and the Members make it what it is..... AWESOME.....👍👍👍☝☝☝⛳🏌♂— Scott Hend (@hendygolf) December 17, 2018
Aaron Rai, who shot a course record 61 en route to winning the 2018 tournament, added: “You know, it would be a real shame if that was to happen.
“We play so many amazing courses on the European Tour, and sometimes the players as a whole are very hard to please and you kind of get mixed reviews about courses week to week.
“But this is one of those rare venues where 99.9 per cent of the people love it. It’s not crazy long. It’s tough.”

The years of adolescence are a strange time as there are both physical developments and emotional interest changes. During these years, adolescents usually seek out new experience, crave adventure, and take risks to form their identity. According to statistics, approximately forty-percent of seniors in high school will have taken an illegal drug.
Don’t waste time! Our writers will create an original "Physical Developments And Emotional Interest" essay for you whith a 15% discount.Create order
Although trying drugs may fulfill normal developmental drives, it is unhealthy and comes with serious and negative long-term consequences. Many of these desires are explained through the environmental factors of the teen along with Erikson’s stages of psychological development. By understanding of the identity vs. role confusion stage experienced by these adolescence (ages 12-18), strategies can be developed to prevent drug abuse in the youth.
As mentioned before, these years not only from the lack of a carved-out identity, but also from environmental factors. First and foremost, the family household is an important factor. If the individual lives in a household where violence, physical or emotional abuse, mental illness, or drug use in the house is present, they are more likely to use drugs. In these sorts of instances, drugs are used to handle the home issues or are influenced by the using family members. When not at home, teens must deal with pressure from their friends and outside society. This peer pressure allows them to become vulnerable and copy the behaviors of those around them. If refusing the participate, social status tends to decrease as they are called lame or boring.
This social status boost tends to give confidence to adolescence, especially when referring to a shy individual. Occurring mental disorders increases the possibility of substance abuse as well. Teens that suffer with focusing in their academics, lack impulse control, or suffer from depression and anxiety turn to different substances to cope with their problems. The most common drugs seen in this include unprescribed pharmacy pills, such as Adderall to help focus in class, or marijuana to settle the negative thoughts. Lastly, the development of the adolescent plays a significant factor as well. The use of drugs can begin at any age, but the earlier it begins, the more likely it is to turn into an unbreakable habit. This is more likely to occur in teens because the frontal lobe has not fully developed, decision making and self-control are difficult to keep under control. The tougher the environment, the genetics, and home life for the individual, the more likely they are to become active drug users.
According to Erikson’s stages of psychological development, adolescence between the ages of twelve and eighteen are experiencing the identity vs. role confusion stage. Teens are exploring different roles and ideas, setting goals, and attempting to discover their true selves.

It is closing in on Houston Texans 2014 training camp and here at State of the Texans we will cover all of the position groups and players leading up to day one of training camp.
Texans Tight Ends
Top Three Bring Versatility
One of the strongest and most versatile position groups has to be the tight end group with Garrett Graham, Ryan Griffin and rookie C.J. Fiedorowicz. ...
The Houston Texans put together a quiet offseason adding free agents and claiming players off of waivers. With training camp starting at the end of July, we take a closer look on what to expect from a crop of players the Texans signed to improve their team.
Here is a look at the veteran group who have been brought back or added to a roster in need of help.
The 2014 Houston Texans hit the field for the first time under Head Coach Bill O’Brien in their first voluntary mini camp. There has been a considerable change in the culture with the Texans and it started today when the Texans hit the field on Tuesday.
Here are some notes from day one.

Texans coach Bill O’Brien likes to stockpile tight ends, so he added Zach Potter on Thursday.
Potter (6-7, 269) is a four-year veteran who played at Jacksonville but didn’t play last season. He has 11 career receptions.
Potter gives the Texans four tight ends under contract and five if you count Brad Smelley, who’s listed as a fullback on the roster but played like an H-back...

Aaron Wilson of the National Football Post reports that the Houston Texans are signing TE Zach Potter on Wednesday.
Potter, 27, signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent out of Nebraska in 2009. He would go on to spend his first four years in the NFL with the Jaguars before signing with the Rams last May.

Jaguars head coach Mike Mularkey is blaming the Patriots’ goal line tactics for his tight end, Zach Potter, jumping offsides late in the fourth quarter as Jacksonville was facing a 3rd-and-goal situation on the Patriots’ one-yard line down by seven.
Jaguars quarterback Chad Henne was sacked on the next play by Dont’a...
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- Coming off consecutive prime-time games at home and facing one of the NFL's worst teams on the road, the New England Patriots were poised for a letdown.
They surely didn't expect a near meltdown.
Tom Brady overcame a rough start by throwing two touchdown passes, and the Patriots held on to beat the woeful Jacksonville Jaguars 23-16 on Sunday....
The Texans travel to Jacksonville to begin AFC South Division play this weekend against rival Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars limp into this game with an 0-1 record after losing their first game in overtime to the Minnesota Vikings. Jacksonville opened the season with 10 players on the IR (injured reserve) list and didn’t even dress two of their top defensive starters last...
Those following the NFL Draft on Friday probably had to do a double take when they saw the Jaguars selected Cal punter Bryan Anger with the seventh pick in the third round. It was a pick for which the Jags came under fire — these days taking a punter that early is rarely seen. Even the team’s own players were critical of the selection. Here’s what tight end Zach Potter had...
Jaguars tight end Zach Potter had some not so nice things to say after seeing who the team drafted in the third round.
The Jacksonville Jaguars were overwhelmed by a very motivated San Diego Chargers team last night on Monday Night Football. Blaine Gabbert completed 19 of 33 passes for 195 yards with 2 TD passes and 1 INT. He also carried the ball 6 times for 19 yards (3.2 ypc) for the Jaguars last night. Maurice Jones-Drew was a beast once again for the Jags last night. He carried the ball...
The Jaguars could really use some more help from the return games to help set up the offense with better starting position. RB Deji Karim does the heavy lifting on kickoff returns for the Jaguars. He has returned 20 kickoffs for 468 yards (23.4 avg) so far this year for the Jaguars. Montell Owens (1 return for 13 yards) and Zach Potter (1 return for 0 yards) have also gotten...

Amazon is looking to open two brick-and-mortar stores in the Washington, D.C., area, with reportedly more to follow. The Seattle-based e-commerce company has posted several openings for store managers and associate managers for Amazon Go grocery locations in the region, reported the Washington Business Journal.
The publication earlier reported that Amazon had obtained permits to construct two physical stores in Washington, D.C., one measuring 8,000 square feet and the other, at 12,700 square feet, poised to be its biggest location in the United States to date. Both D.C. stores will feature Amazon’s signature “just walk out” technology.
Beyond the two city stores, the Washington Business Journal reported that Amazon plans to open as many as three 30,000-square-foot grocery stores in the Virginia and Maryland suburbs of the nation’s capital, basing its information on “public filings, permit applications, construction leads and photographic evidence.”
No. 2 on The PG 100, Progressive Grocer’s 2020 list of the top food and consumables retailers in North America, Amazon is also planning grocery stores in the Los Angeles and Philadelphia markets, according to media reports. Austin, Texas-based Whole Foods is No. 24 on the list.

In panel A one screening tool is applied (e.g. symptoms) and screen positives are further evaluated by one confirmatory test with high sensitivity and high specificity (e.g. Xpert MTB/RIF). In panel B one screening tool is applied (e.g. symptoms) and screen positives are further evaluated by a confirmatory test with low sensitivity (e.g. sputum smear microscopy), and persons with a negative test receive a second test or procedure (e.g. clinical diagnosis, or sputum culture). In panel C two screening tools are applied (e.g. symptoms and chest radiography) and screen positives on either one or on both are further evaluated with a confirmatory test. In panel D two screening tools are applied sequentially. Screen positives on the first screen (e.g. symptoms) undergo a second screen (e.g. CXR) and if also positive on the second a confirmatory test is applied. The single confirmatory test in panels C and D could also be replaced by two-steps as in panel B.
