With a laugh that is recognized within seconds of hearing it, lyrics that speak to the streets, surviving 50 Cent beef and well-earned confidence, Jadakiss has become one of rap’s living legends. Since getting his start in rapping with The Lox some 10 plus years ago, Jada has done nothing but sharpen his skills. From mixtapes to studio albums, we expect nothing but hard hitting beats and lyrics that make you want to go back and listen one more time to make sure you soaked up all its potency. That’s exactly what we will be doing with Jadakiss’ latest album, The Last Kiss, set to release on March 10th. We’ve all waited five long years since Jada’s last release—Kiss of Death and now the time has come for us to reunite with the husky voiced emcee. Even though his talents would tell you otherwise, Jadakiss does more than just rapping.
Multitasking in the music industry is becoming second nature for most artists and Jadakiss is no different. Always a lover of some fly kicks, he’s got his own site coming soon (hiphopsole.com). He’s also working on some voice over work as well as another mixtape—Kiss My Ass. Oh and let’s not forget The LOX compilation, No Security, hitting shelves this April as well as a LOX album, hopefully releasing this summer. Jada has had quite a journey since his days freestyling outside of Ruff Ryder studios and it’s going to be amazing to watch the rest of his journey unfold. Whether you admit it or not, Jadakiss is Top Five, Dead or Alive.

With lyrics like, “Hip-hop is not dead, change gonna come, just like Barack said” and “Why did Bush knock down the towers?” You have political messages in some of your music. What’s the biggest impact hip-hop has on politics and vice versa?
Politics is in everything. When somebody like myself says something like Bush knocked down the towers, it comes shocking to people like Bill O’Reilly—to the whole world. They just blow it out of proportion, opposed to somebody else saying it. I don’t know if they think artists are ignorant or they don’t think we look at the news. Most artists dropped out in about sixth grade, that’s part of their bio. Politics is politics. It’s all an opinion, if you ain’t in Congress or a part of it. You’re just really viewing your opinion and that’s all I do. That’s all artists do, but it seems to stick when we say something. I don’t even know why.
I heard you talking about the Best of Both Offices when I first came in. Can you tell me more about that?
You’re going to have to talk to my man Young Sav, that’s his company. *He looks over at Young Sav*
Young Sav: It’s about him voicing his opinion about what’s going on in the streets at the time—promoting his album. It’s a viral campaign situation.
I was looking at the track listing for The Last Kiss and there are a lot of interesting collabos, producers and features. How did you choose those people?
They just felt right for the song. Everybody I choose, I choose them after made the song or after I got the beat. I just felt they were perfect for the song. I don’t go off names, I go off flames.
What are you most proud of with The Last Kiss?
The whole project is like my baby. I’m just finishing it—to complete it is what I’m proud of. I will tell you what I’m most proud of after I put it out.
With technology being so advanced and everywhere you go, you can download an album for free, are you at all nervous about record sales?
Yeah. Definitely. Always nervous. I’ll be alright because I can make it up somewhere else.
What message are you trying to send with this album?
Get on your ‘A’ game, as an artist. From Northeast, know what I mean? This is really like a sacrifice album to start n*ggas coming back out with good albums.
What took so long?

Emergent Principles for Digital Documentary
Digital Documentaries are an area of rapid invention and experimentation at all levels, including creative content, production techniques, and business models. As with many forms of digital storytelling, a focus on technologies can be distracting; platforms change rapidly, and are dependent on external commercial forces rather than creative potential. This article presents several design strategies for driving experimentation in digital documentary above and beyond the specific of platform and technology. The core focus is on treating digital docs as experiences, with an expanded range of designable moments, as well as a strategic approach to designing interactions for their unique set of challenges. The discussion is not intended to fully define digital documentary design factors, but rather, defines a useful subset of methods that can lead emerging practitioners to new innovations in their approach.

Original Lithograph - The War 1976
COLOUR LITHOGRAPH 1976
Henri ROUSSEAU (1844 - 1910)
* Real original Lithograph made on stone
* Plate signed
* On high end Arches Vellum paper
* Authentificated by the dry stamp of the author profil
* Limited edition by "Les Imprimeries Parisiennes" from France at 300 copies
* Edited in 1976
* Size : 75 cm x 57 cm
*An original fine art lithograph is not just a cheap mass produced print. The process is far more complicated and therefore valuable and collectible. In short, Lithography is a method of printing using a stone (lithographic limestone) or a metal plate with a completely smooth surface to which the design & ink is applied. A limited edition lithograph is an original graphic created by the artist in a small print edition or run.
The process of printmaking requires a balance of creativity and skill using traditional techniques. It’s the amount of impressions 'pulled' from each 'plate' or stone that gives each print its scarcity.
Because of the unique history of each item, collectible prints often appreciate in value over time due to their rarity and age. This makes them an excellent investment.

I’m still catching up on some reviews – its only the 5th and I can’t believe I’m behind
Thank you to the author for the free early copy in exchange for my honest review!
A HAUNT OF TRAVELS – A.W. Mason
You can see his Instagram here!
Take a journey through a haunt of travels…
A retirement community holds the secrets to decades-long serial murders, but will these secrets get out or stay buried forever? Three friends take a road trip but soon find themselves pitted against a maniac with no motive and no remorse. In the near dystopian future, a twenty mile race promises the prize of a lifetime, but it comes with a hidden cost. A blood splatter analyst finds himself in a town that doesn’t seem to exist with no way to call for help.
Immerse yourself in terror and suspense with these stories and more as each turn of the page drives you deeper into an expedition of fear.
My Thoughts: 4/5 stars
This was a fun one to read because it’s from a fellow Bookstagrammer! Here we have a collection of 11 short stories that all fall within the horror and suspense genres. As with all short story collections, there will always be standouts and I think my favorite one was Retirement. I would love more from that story and learning more about The Blue Collar Butcher – fingers crossed for something more!
A HAUNT OF TRAVELS is just under the 250 page mark and each story, no matter the length, had a great pacing to it. Being more of a speed reader, pacing is everything and can honestly make or break a book for me (even if I’m loving the actual story). There was a good variety between all of the entries in this collection. Not all of them felt the same, nothing felt repetitive, and it showcased a good diversity in the writing.
Overall, a solid debut, especially considering this is a short story collection. There’s a good range here and I enjoyed them all. I know they aren’t for everyone, but if you’re looking for some horror and suspense themed short stories, then keep this one on that TBR of yours.

Analysis: Lack of vaccination passport, testing threaten Japan’s reopening
TOKYO, Oct 19 (Reuters) – Japan’s lack of a vaccination passport and restricted testing capability is threatening ambitions to reopen the economic system at an important year-end interval when eating places earn as much as a half of their annual income and journey companies are at their busiest.
This means companies, cautious of one other pandemic wave via winter, will not be rehiring laid-off workers or ordering extra provides till they know extra about what the reopening scheme will seem like and the way lengthy they will keep open. Local authorities have been largely left to fend for themselves, making a patchwork of guidelines and compliance schemes.
At stake is how rapidly Japan can recapture a number of the $44 billion spent by overseas vacationers in 2019 and whether or not the estimated $53 billion in pent-up home spending could be unleashed to jump-start the battered economic system.
If botched, the reopening may additionally show pricey for brand new Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, who faces an election in beneath two weeks. His predecessor was ousted after his reputation rankings tanked because of perceptions his authorities bungled its COVID-19 pandemic response.
Year-end is essential for bars and eating places in Japan, the place firms organise giant “forget-the-year” events and having a meal to spherical off the yr with enterprise associates and mates is a vital customized.
“I’ve always had a special event at the year-end, but I’m thinking of cancelling, because experts say a sixth wave of the coronavirus will definitely come,” says Mayumi Saijo, who owns “Beer Bar Bitter” in Tokyo’s fashionable Kagurazaka district.
Saijo says she is nervous about ordering some $4,000 in beer from the Czech Republic after pouring out kegs because of lockdowns final yr and having bother sleeping earlier than the most recent state of emergency was lifted.
“Whatever I prepared for would cost me money,” she stated. “I want to avoid risk at all costs.”
While her place survived earlier pandemic restrictions on opening hours, authorities compensation didn’t forestall a document 780 bars and eating places in Japan from going bankrupt within the yr via April, and one other 298 since then, in accordance with personal credit score agency Teikoku Databank.
“How late will restaurants be allowed to stay open? Everything depends on that – hiring people, ordering supplies,” stated Shigenori Ishii, an official on the Japan Food Service Association, a 75,000-member sturdy trade group.
PASSPORTS AND TESTS
Japan was initially criticised for a sluggish vaccination rollout that left it behind most superior economies and made it weak to a Delta variant outbreak that pressured it to carry the Tokyo Olympics with out spectators this summer time.
Cases have since slowed to a trickle and vaccinations have caught up, enabling the federal government to step by step start work on a scheme to reopen that may entail using vaccination certificates and COVID-19 exams.
The challenge with vaccine passports is that, on high of unresolved privateness issues, inoculations have been given by native authorities or self defence forces and a unified database doesn’t exist.
“I think we should’ve prepared much, much earlier. Maybe a year ago,” says Yusuke Nakamura, a geneticist and pioneer in personalised most cancers therapy. “There’s no standardised mechanism to provide a vaccine passport so each city is making some kind of passport, but nothing is digitised.”
While the town of Tokyo has made virtually no progress on the scheme, in accordance with officers, some municipalities are going it alone.
Ishigaki Island, residence to Japan’s southernmost metropolis, modified a mobile phone utility used for vaccine reservations to now function a cellular inoculation document. Tourists can present their vaccine document to get a reduction card at retailers and eating places.
“If we can expand the usage to ensure peace of mind between both the shopkeepers and shoppers then Ishigaki’s economy can recover,” stated Ishigaki City official Teruyuki Tanahara.
The downside with partially basing the reopening on COVID-19 exams is that Japan has not finished mass testing – it carried out 9 instances fewer exams per capita than the United States throughout the pandemic, Oxford University knowledge present, and they don’t seem to be available.
The authorities has stated it exams in step with World Health Organization suggestions. New PM Kishida has pledged to extend testing capability, however comparable guarantees made by his predecessors didn’t carry tangible enhancements.
Makoto Shimoaraiso, a cupboard official guiding the pandemic response, instructed Reuters the federal government was “experimenting what would the optimal package for instance at the soccer field or the stadium or restaurants or pubs be.”
“We’re going to hear from other stakeholders like private businesses and local governments as well to come up with a specific operational plan and we are trying to expedite that,” stated Shimoaraiso.
Back in Tokyo, Mike Grant, a co-owner of the DevilCraft chain of pizza and craft beer eating places with 20 workers, says any scheme needs to be accompanied by clear enforcement guidelines.
“We don’t mind turning people away if we were allowed to do so…and if the government would have our backs and say ‘this is what science says.'”
“I think we would be sought out, if we were early to adopt a programme like that. So definitely that would be positive.”

After Bingin we moved a mere 10 minutes down the road to Uluwatu. We stayed at Puri Uluwatu, which was a short walk to the beach. We only had 4 days there so we didn’t have time to waste with regards to surfing and sight seeing.
We had a few things on the radar regarding what to do. We wanted to go to Padang Padang Beach, visit the Uluwatu Temple, surf at Uluwatu and also ride around the whole area on motorbikes to get a feel for it.
We went to Padang Padang Beach first. There is a good wave for learners there but on this particular day the swell was very small so I decided not to go out. The beach itself is small and average, but I did like that there was a lot of shade provided by the rocks. My mom bought an ornate sarong there for 40 000 IDR (with a bit of bargaining), which I very quickly claimed as my own.
Norman somehow convinced me to go surfing with him at Uluwatu, and I actually had my best surfing experience ever. I was hesitant because the waves were so crowded and I doubted I would even be able to catch one. Luckily for me I had a private (and free!) surf instructor, and Norman knew where in the water we should sit so that we could catch waves. We both ended up catching quite a lot of waves, and the vibe in the water was fun because we made friends with the locals. They were super cool, and would shout and cheer for me when I paddled for a wave.
The Uluwatu Temple (Pura Luhur Uluwatu) was something we all wanted wanted to go see because it is essentially the most famous landmark in Uluwatu. It is an important temple not just in Uluwatu but also in Bali, and is quite spectacularly located on the edge of a steep cliff. It was easy enough for us to find on our scooters, and there was just a 2000 IDR fee per vehicle/scooter. To enter into the temple area itself costs a further 20 000 IDR per adult, which still makes for a very affordable outing. At the entrance to the temple you are given robes to wear to cover your legs. There are also people selling food for the monkeys at every corner but we didn’t buy because it encourages the monkeys to be aggressive when they fight over the food. The views from either side of the temple really are beautiful because you have the green cliffside and then the striking blue ocean below. Parts of the temple itself were under construction, and to be honest I never really felt it’s authenticity.
If you follow my blog you will know I really don’t like any form of animal captivity or exploitation, so I wasn’t looking forward to seeing all the tame monkeys running around. People are encouraged to hide their sunglasses and cameras because the monkeys steal them and run off, which just shows how bad things have gotten. It is to be expected though, because the monkeys are constantly being fed by humans, and in close contact with them. Although I didn’t feed them, I did take some adorable pictures of the babies because they were so tame that they just sat on the wall right where we walked past.
Overall I must admit to being slightly disappointed with my temple experience. It was so full of tourists walking around in hoards, and I didn’t feel any sense of spirituality. The place was run down, littered and basically exploited. As can be seen in the pictures, it is still beautiful in parts so I would say it is still worth a visit – just don’t have very high expectations.

Book it all effortlessly in one place

"Gone to the dogs" might well describe the groom's dress sense but it's also a great way to kick start a big night out. Fast paced and thrilling dog racing gives you a chance to have a few wagers, while enjoying some refreshing beverages and banter with the boys.
Our Dublin stag party greyhound racing could turn the whole party into winners, equally it could just see you all have a bloody good laugh while tearing up those losing tickets, "you makes ya bets and you takes ya chances".
The package consists of;
For groups of more than 10 stags you can also opt to upgrade to include a finger food platter to suit the delicate little stags' pinkies. When washed down with a few pints of whatever takes your fancy and the action on the track you're in for a top night.
And you don't need to be race hardened punters, there's always plenty of 'faces' around the track who'll be able to give you the odd tip. Failing that just plump for the weirdest names and hope you get lucky. You could walk away with enough folding in your pocket to buy a round of man-cocktails later in the evening. Alternatively you could end up with nothing but racing ticket confetti so always bet only what you can afford, while it's a fantastic night out with the lads no one has ever walked away from a Friday night at the dog track as an overnight millionaire.
This is a really different type of activity and something you can't help but get caught up in and some of the most prestigious greyhound fixtures of the year take place at our Dublin tracks.
You can watch all the action unfold from the comfort of the bar. Or maybe the atmospheric restaurant, where you can relax and place a bet with table-side Tote betting service.
Because of the pandemic, there's limited availability for 2022 due to 1000s of events being rescheduled and new events being booked in daily.
Please Note: We work with 1000s of suppliers across the UK & Europe so prices, availability, photos and specifics on our greyhound racing activity may vary depending on your preferred location and dates.
Feel free to ask your Destination Specialist at the time of booking if you have any questions about this.

OSHA (Occupational Safety And Health Administration) has many safety guidelines and rules. According to government research, OSHA has prevented more than 60% of workplace injuries since 1971—when President Nixon officially commissioned OSHA at the time.
Since then, OSHA has found loopholes in the security and safety of specific industries, like general, construction, maritime, and agriculture industries. And now they focus on ensuring safety in workplaces through specific courses like OSHA 10- and 30-hour training.
But, one area where OSHA safety tips mainly come in handy is refrigerants or any subzero working environments. In the last year, there were around 2400 reported incidents in this particular niche. So, let’s find out how you can protect your team in such an environment.
What are OSHA HVAC Guidelines For Refrigerant Safety
One of the primary concerns of anyone working in refrigerant or sub-zero areas is oxygen. That’s because the air in closed refrigerated space is usually heavier, and it’s not exactly easy to breathe. But, besides fatal freezing, there are a ton of other possible hazards in such environments too.
That’s why OSHA safety tips for workplaces focus particularly on refrigeration and require workplaces to abide by a few critical laws. These regulations put forward by OSHA include:
- Ensure proper training for all personnel handling refrigerants.
- Implement regular equipment maintenance procedures.
- Monitor and address refrigerant leaks promptly.
- Provide adequate ventilation in areas where refrigerants are used.
- Use proper personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Establish emergency response procedures for refrigerant leaks or spills.
- Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for handling and storing refrigerants.
- Label refrigerant containers properly.
- Conduct regular inspections of refrigeration systems.
- Train employees on emergency shutdown procedures.
- Properly dispose of refrigerants according to regulations.
- Keep accurate records of refrigerant usage and maintenance activities.
These guidelines and OSHA office safety tips ensure that workers and supervisors stay safe while working in such environments. However, there are constant upgrades and changes to some guidelines, so it’s essential to keep an eye on that too.
Why Are OSHA HVAC Guidelines For Refrigerant Safety Important?
HVAC guidelines protect workers from a lot of different hazards and protect a workplace from falling into any sort of PR nightmare. That’s why these guidelines are essential to secure the workplace from any such dire scenario.
As discussed before, one of the critical areas that HVAC guidelines cover is refrigerant safety. It doesn’t only cover all the key areas but also provides directives in specific situations. That’s why, it’s essential that companies abide by these guidelines, as they are essential for:
- Prevents exposure to harmful refrigerant chemicals;
- Reduces the risk of leaks and accidents;
- Ensures proper handling and storage procedures;
- Protects workers from health hazards and injuries;
- And promotes environmental responsibility and sustainability.
That’s why these guidelines are important as it focuses on all of the key necessities to prevent accidents in a subzero working environment. Besides that, refrigerants require thorough maintenance and updates. These guidelines focus on ensuring those.
5 Key Tactics To Protect Your Team From Refrigerant Hazards
There are a few tactics that are necessary, not only because they’re the right thing to do but also because OSHA regulates these tactics.
So, here are the five key tactics that can help supervisors or employers protect their workers:
1: Proper Training and Education
Proper training and education are a necessity in ensuring any workplace’s safety. It’s no different for preventing refrigerant hazards, and some might even argue that it’s more important than ordinary workplaces. That’s why it’s essential to provide workers and supervisors in such places with training.
That’s why every employer should regulate OSHA 30 and OSHA 30-hour training programs. The more the workers and supervisors know about safety, the better they will be prepared to tackle such issues.
2: Regular Maintenance and Inspections
Regular maintenance and inspections of refrigerated areas are necessary. Usually, these refrigerated areas are accompanied by gasses and other elements that provide the cold climate with the elements necessary.
So, any sort of leak or damage can be fatal. That’s why it’s important to fix such issues and comply with welding safety tips OSHA provides while doing so. It won’t only protect the employees, but also prevent damaging risk to any of the expensive equipment or devices.
3: Use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Personal Protective Equipment or PPE is a necessary element in any sort of personal training. The use of said equipment is regulated in most workplaces that fall under OSHA’s big four, aka general, construction, agriculture, and maritime.
However, in refrigeration-based workplaces, personal protective equipment might include:
- Nitrite gloves;
- Face/breathing masks;
- Work boots;
- And jackets to avoid exposure to low temperatures.
These are necessary to ensure safe working in any refrigerant or HVAC-eligible working environment.
4: Safe Handling and Storage Procedures
There are a lot of guidelines and rules about handling certain devices or equipment. These procedures are of a vast variety, and one example is how OSHA portable ladder safety tips have a separate set of guidelines of their own.
That’s why it’s not only necessary but quite important to ensure the regulation of safe handling and storage procedures. For instance, OSHA safety training can provide specific forklift safety tips by OSHA or other necessities for handling key areas in a refrigeration facility, etc.
5: Emergency Response Planning
Emergency response planning is one of the first things that OSHA inspectors check for when they inspect any workplace. How well is your workplace prepared to tackle any potential safety risks?
That’s why it’s important to figure out the right emergency response and seek the help of experts to put a plan in place if you don’t have one.
These are some of the top considerations to protect a team according to OSHA’s HVAC guidelines for refrigerant safety. It’s important to ensure regulation of these tactics, and of safety training to employees and supervisors. Only then can an employer keep their workplace safe and secure.

It may be time for Iman Shumpert and Teyana Taylor to take a couple’s retreat or maybe a quick session of couple’s therapy.
On the heels of a baby rumor, Iman completely lost his cool over-the-weekend and wigged out on Teyana’s IG page when she posted a flirty photo of herself and Draya Michele.
Now, you may recall the singer and model had quite a steamy moment on stage during Teyana’s tour. ?
When Iman saw the pics of them on IG – it went downhill from there.
Peep the foolishness courtesy of The Shade Room:
After coming to his senses, Iman Shumpert issued an apology and blamed his actions on “missing his wife.”
Hopefully, Teyana and Iman will pluck the root of whatever is going on before it grows like a weed.

HEALTH CARE REFORM TIMELINE
March 23: President Barack Obama signs the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law. Provisions put into place by the end of 2010 include:
Young people allowed to remain on parents' health policies until age 26.
Small-business tax credits available for those that contribute at least 50 percent of employees' premiums. The credit is 35 percent and rises to 50 percent of premium costs in 2014.
Affordable insurance available to eligible people with pre-existing conditions, also an annual cap of $5,950 for out-of-pocket costs for individuals and $11,900 for families.
Insurers can no longer deny health coverage to children with pre-existing conditions or exclude their conditions from coverage. This provision extends to the entire population in 2014.
All new group and individual health plans are required to provide free preventive care for certain services. Medicare begins providing free preventive care in 2011.
New rules ban insurance companies from ending people's coverage when they get sick or imposing lifetime coverage caps. Annual limits on benefits are phased out in 2014.
Funding increases by $11 billion over five years for community health centers. The Family Health Center of Boone County has received some of these funds.
Medicare and Medicaid begin testing payment models that reward providers for quality of care rather than volume of services. Private insurers begin moving to similar models voluntarily in 2012.
New fees imposed on pharmaceutical manufacturers for certain drugs. Over-the-counter drug reimbursement restrictions go into effect.
Employers are required to disclose the value of benefits for each employee on W-2 forms.
Health care providers may participate in an Accountable Care Organization. ACOs are designed for providers to share in savings generated by meeting quality targets and reducing costs.
Late June: Supreme Court decision expected on ACA.
September: Health insurers must distribute a summary of benefits and coverage to participants that complies with rules to make the documents easier to understand.
October: Hospitals and providers will get reduced reimbursement from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services if patients get certain health care acquired conditions or infections and if patient readmission rates are high.
Employees are limited to $2,500 in flexible spending account contributions.
Medicaid reimbursement is increased for care provided by eligible physicians.
Medicare taxes increase on taxpayers who receive wages in excess of $200,000.
March: Employers must provide employees with written notification of the existence of available health insurance exchanges.
Individual mandate to purchase insurance goes into effect. The ACA amended the Internal Revenue Code to require, as of Jan. 1, 2014, that most people purchase "minimum essential" coverage. Employers with 50 or more workers will be required to offer health benefits or be subject to a fine.
Medicaid eligibility expands to all legal residents with incomes up to 133 percent of the federal poverty level.
Insurance exchanges will offer small businesses and people without employer coverage a choice of affordable health plans. If a state does not enact legislation to create an exchange, the federal government will create one for it.
Insurers are banned from restricting coverage or basing premiums based on health status or gender.
Insurers are assessed a 40 percent excise tax for high-cost insurance plans.

Benedict Cumberbatch, British actor and star of the hit BBC show Sherlock, has a new partner in crime (fighting) in the very first image of the show’s fourth season. The first-look image, revealed on the BBC’s Twitter account, shows Sherlock accompanied by a dog, specifically of the Bloodhound breed.
Check out the image below:
In the second book of author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Homes stories, The Sign of Four, Sherlock has a dog named Toby that he uses to track scents. Could this be that very dog and an image taken from an episode adapting that particular story? The character Molly Hooper from the show has a cat named Toby which could be a nod to the partnering hound. However, this image looks to highlight the addition of Toby the dog.
Speaking of Toby, it was announced back in May, when filming began on the show’s fourth season, that actor Toby Jones would be joining the cast. His character will make an appearance in episode 2 of the season. However, who he is playing remains a mystery. With that said, co-creator Mark Gatiss hinted at the fact he may be playing one of “Doyle’s finest villains,” which opens up an array of possibilities.
At the end of the third season, it was revealed that Sherlock’s nemesis Moriarty was seemingly still alive. Could Jones’ character be connected to Moriarty in some capacity. Or is he indeed the main antagonist, with Moriarty’s revival all but a ruse? At this stage, not much else is known about the fourth season of the show, beyond a few spoiler-y shots from filming, with fans having to speculate over what direction it will take. Only time will tell where it goes.
Sherlock season four is pencilled in to air on New Year’s 2017.

By Alseny Ben Bangoura*
The new Guinean Constitution adopted by a disputed referendum on March 22, 2020 was falsified in its final version published in the Official Journal of the Republic on April 14, according to local experts who recently examined the two versions of the constitution.
In a TV interview last Thursday, May 28, Pepe Koulémou, a Guinean constitutional lawyer, sounded the alarm by revealing that a significant number of articles have been substantially modified in the interest of leader Alpha Condé, who wants to stay in power for life.
"The Draft Constitution made public on December 19, 2019 by the President of the Republic had 18 titles and 161 articles. However, the text of the Constitution published by the Official Journal of the Republic on April 14, 2020 contains 19 titles and 156 articles", wrote GuiLaw, an online publication dedicated to the rule of law in Guinea, consulted by AlloAfricaNews.
Changes include articles 4, 30, 42, 43, 47, 59, 76, 77, 83, 84, 91, et 92. Experts pointed the finger in particular to article 42 which allows independent candidate to contest a presidential election, without belonging to any political party. This provision was suppressed in the original document, experts said.
While expressing its deep concern, a group of experts is currently seeking explanations on why this constitutional fraud. So far, authorities in Conakry have been silent.
If these accusations of fraud are verified, the 84-year-old Conde has just given a new weapon to his critics. This is the opinion of a retired former Guinean diplomat, who noted, “Since becoming president in 2010, Alpha Condé has consistently violated the constitution. But what he has just done is unprecedented. Neither Bokassa, nor Mobutu nor any other dictator of his rank has ever committed this kind of constitutional crime in my view."
Sources close to the ruling party are indicating that the Guinean leader is ready to announce his candidacy for a third term this summer. The constitution he has just replaced actually prohibits him from doing so, as the presidential election is supposed to be held in October. The ballot may be postponed, according to several analysts considering possible scenarios.

Best Inkjet printers for Graphic Designers
In everyday life you notice that although almost everyone now owns a smartphone and has access to computers, extremely much is printed out. We were wondering why. For many people, paper is better and easier to read than screen content. Printed documents are easier to correct, mark, etc. Printed pages are something solid - nothing crashes or does not start.

2022 World Cup Qualification. Africa
Group stage. Round 5. Group I
Stadium: Stade du FUS (Rabat)
Sudan will host Morocco in round 5 of the 2022 World Cup qualification. We will tell you how the opponents are doing and what is the best to bet on. There are several betting options to consider!Claim Your Welcome Bonus!
Sudan national team form
After losing in the first two rounds of World Cup qualification, 0-2 to Morocco and 2-4 to Guinea-Bissau, Sudan has twice played a score draw with Guinea (1-1 and 2-2). Of course, that's not enough to take first place, but it's fine for last. Sudan already has no reason to play in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers, so the remaining matches are no more than a training session for them.
Morocco national team
Getting to the next round of the 2022 World Cup for Morocco has been extremely easy. The team earned 12 points in 4 rounds, enough to qualify for the group stage of the 2022 World Cup. First Morocco beat Sudan 2-0, then defeated Guinea-Bissau twice (5-0 and 3-0), and finally achieved a confident 4-1 victory over Guinea. The Moroccan squad is perfectly balanced, having scored 14 goals in four rounds with only one conceded.
Expert Betting Tips
You don't need to be a professional soccer analyst to favor the Moroccans. Sudan has been terrible in the World Cup qualification, while Morocco has been excellent. Morocco will not rest on their laurels to get the fourth victory in a row, especially with the bookmakers offering great odds on it.
Prediction: Handicap Morocco (-2.5).
- Handicap Morocco (-2.5) for 2.43;
- Morocco Individual Total Over (3.5) for 3.18;
- Correct score 0-4 for 9.50.

Designing for and from digital narratives
Dalessandro, Brandon D.
MetadataShow full item record
What would it look like if architecture more deeply valued the perspectives of the average people whose lives unfold upon it every day? Architecture exists within a public environment and in urban areas, the effect of both the architectural objects and ideas should be understood to be a part of the cultural commons. In doing so, the impact of architecture can be understood by the ways the average individual appropriates spaces. Social media can lend insight into how average groups of people interpret spaces. Documenting urban environments in this way is a method of interpreting these spaces. In this process, individuals are participating in a dialogue about how they see or want ot be seen in space. By orienting focus on this narrative, designers can develop spaces that are sensitive to this facet of the publics use of space. The first step is the anchoring of the conversation within the community in a spatial framewrok. The goal of this thesis is to develop a system that mirrors the process of interpretation that can be deployed thoughout a city which can be capable of revealing to individuals how they are implicated in the process of remaking the city.

Juneteenth marked the end of slavery of African-Americans in America. It derives its name from combining the month of June and the date19th, which falls on a Monday this year. It became a federal holiday after President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act in 2021.
The holiday commemorates the eventful day when a quarter million enslaved Black people finally got their freedom after Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger and roughly 2,000 Union Troops arrived at Galveston Bay, Texas on June 19, 1865.
This came nearly three years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation to end slavery in the US.
Here's a look at what's open and closed on Juneteenth 2023.
The United States Post Office will be shut and not deliver mail Monday. UPS location will be open, including its ground and express critical services. FedX has also announced that it will be functional as normal.
Major retailers and grocery chains will be open on Juneteenth. Walmart and Target will be open during normal hours. However, it's advisable to check if your local businesses will be operational on Monday.
Juneteenth is a banking holiday. This means that major banks like Bank Of America, Chase, and Wells Fargo will be closed. It's important to note that even banks that remained open last year on this day, will be closed this Monday.
Both Nasdaq and New York Stock Exchange will not be trading on Juneteenth.
Schools and Other Government Bodies
Schools, offices, and Federal offices will remain closed on Juneteenth.
What is The Origin Of Juneteenth?
The day was first celebrated in Texas, on June 19, 1866. It marked the first anniversary of the day African-Americans gained their freedom.The holiday is often celebrated with prayer meetings and people sing spiritual songs and wear new clothes to represent their freedom, as per Britannica.
African-Americans In Colonial America
The first Africans were brought to the colonies of what would be the United States by the Portuguese. While most enslaved workers worked in the field, many assisted the owners of the plantations in their homes as maids, cooks, and nannies. As enslaved people became more and more in demand in the South, the slave trade that spanned from Africa to the colonies became a source of economic wealth.
How Slavery Became America's First Profitable Business
The cotton slavery that existed from the end of the 18th century to the beginning of the Civil War, was a fullfledged business, as reported by Vox. Thousand of young enslaved men and women were forced into the production of cotton that would later fuel global industrialization. These slaves were forced to maintain America's most exported commodity.
"The slavery economy of the US South is deeply tied financially to the North, to Britain, to the point that we can say that people who were buying financial products in these other places were in effect owning slaves, and were extracting money from the labor of enslaved people," says Edward E. Baptist, a historian at Cornell University.
Despite the openly discussed brutal history of plantations, they are not always seen as the violent places that they were. The history of plantation slavery is not exclusive to the Americas. They were found in Africa and Asia, however, that is a topic for another day.

About these proceedings
Computer graphics as a whole is an area making very fast progress and it is not easy for anyone, including experts, to keep abreast of the frontiers of its various basic and application fields. By issuing over 100 thousand calls for papers through various journals and magazines as weil as by inviting reputed specialists, and by selecting high quality papers which present the state of the art in computer graphics out of many papers thus received, this book "Frontiers in Computer Graphics" has been compiled to present the substance of progress in this field. This volume serves also as the final version of the Proceedings of Computer Graphics Tokyo '84, Tokyo, Japan, April 24-27, 1984 which, as a whole, attracted 16 thousand participants from all over the world; about two thousand to the conference and the remaining 14 thousand to the exhibition. This book covers the following eight major frontiers of computer graphics in 29 papers: 1. geometry modelling, 2. graphie languages, 3. visualization techniques, 4. human factors, 5. interactive graphics design, 6. CAD/CAM, 7. graphie displays and peripherals, and 8. graphics standardization. Geometry modelling is most essential in displaying any objects in computer graphics. It determines the basic capabilities of computer graphics systems such as whether the surface and the inside of the object can be displayed and also how efficiently graphical processing can be done in terms of processing time and memory space.

Info for Sinbad (Remastered)
In 1976, jazz keyboardist Weldon Irvine was in a transitional phase of his career. Having spent years as Nina Simone's band leader, he had developed into a full-formed, mature musician by the early 70s, creating a sound that combined modern jazz, soul, funk and blues with an underlying social and spiritual consciousness. Sinbad, his last ever album for a major label, marked the high point of that period. Mixing original songs with covers by Marvin Gaye ("What's Goin' On") and Stevie Wonder ("Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing"), Irvine led an exemplary group of players-guitarist Eric Bale, saxophonist Michael Brecker and a breakout performance by pianist Don Blackman, who also supplied vocals-on an ambitious, intricate musical journey that's both technically brilliant and emotionally striking. Afterwards, Irvine found further success in writing musical stage productions, leaving Sinbad as one of his final-and greatest-recordings.
„Recorded with an exemplary supporting cast featuring pianist Don Blackman, guitarist Eric Gale, and saxophonist Michael Brecker, Sinbad explores the extremes of Weldon Irvine's music, juxtaposing several of the keyboardist's funkiest, most energetic grooves to date alongside mellow, contemplative performances of uncommon intricacy and beauty. Inspired in both sound and spirit by the soul-searching Motown efforts of Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, complete with covers of their respective "What's Going On" and "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing," Sinbad contrasts the elegant soul-jazz contours and luminous, horn-driven arrangements of the title cut and "Do Something for Yourself" alongside the nuances and soft pastels of "I Love You" and "Music Is the Key." The resiliency of Irvine's vision and the vibrant performances of his collaborators nevertheless create a kind of yin-yang dynamic that enables the album's divided soul to operate in harmony.“ (Jason Ankeny, AMG)

In Latin, Focus means Fire
The Focus is a fitting name for a fireplace that has been designed to optimize every aspect of the fire. The large viewing space, unique flame pattern, impressive heat output and exceptional combustion efficiency make the Focus 320 standout. A simple but stylish door and an optional decorative surround that blend the worlds between efficient wood-burning and contemporary design. Never having to sacrifice efficiency for design is a benefit that will keep your focus where it should be… on the fire.

Scientists have lately created new ways to propel rockets and satellites into space. These methods usually do not require heavy fuels and rely rather on solar energy by way of the interaction of plasma that comes from our Sun and also the very lightweight gas argon. The interaction is guided by the usage of distinct levels of chambers and manipulated by the addition of very effective magnets. At unbelievable temperatures touted at a million degrees, the gases are released at a price strong enough to propel rockets utilizing our solar system.
With price range cuts to several programs like NASA as well as the new technology, the opportunities exist now to discover inner space. These opportunities are several, and contain many forms of industrial endeavors and too as academic ones. Science can, and has, give quite a few answers to commercial issues, and this is the most recent one.
Start out-ups in the area of communications, be it cellular telephones or world-wide-web access for essentially the most remote regions of the planet are now feasible. Financially, the technology may perhaps nevertheless be out of attaining for many, but with funding from investors or communities, that barrier might be speedily removed. Communications can bring remote regions as much as par, and into the industrial arena with the complete planet market place. Consider being able to market goods produced inside a remote village that has been left impoverished as a consequence of their place, but can now sell goods towards the world and boost their common of living.
Scientific experiments may also now be held in our solar system. Some may perhaps still be much more expense helpful held here on Earth in diverse chambers that mimic weightlessness and are in a position to make a vacuum, but quite a few will probably be able to conduct that had been not possible to complete previously.
One commercial undertaking that could be of interest to quite a few is goods delivered to space stations. While NASA is experiencing cuts, the complete dismantling with the plan has not happened. Space station technicians nevertheless live on the space station, and numerous are required to execute maintenance around the thousands of satellites giving signals towards the billions of devices dependent on them around the planet.
These technicians will need a continually provide system of goods delivered to them. With this new technology, space stations are no longer dependent on their governments to fulfill this want. Other begin-ups can include travel for tourism to distant places inside the solar system. Whilst this might be several years off, it might be good business sense to look into. There is also the new opportunity for extended stays in space for business. Enterprises will probably be in a position to sell goods to those living in our orbit, and soon, these very same enterprises, if they begin soon and acquire expertise, will probably be able to go to the locations exactly where vacationers are at in our solar system and improve their sales with them.
Picture being able to take classes, or teach, with all the stars and planets as the background in your classroom’s windows. Tourism is usually combined with a lot of distinctive business opportunities, and need to be limited only by your imagination. Or instead of needing to trek to a remote location to write that book, you may escape beyond the moon. Professors taking sabbaticals to refresh their minds and prepare them for future teaching generally take sabbaticals, with the spend, and tour the planet. Now, they could take extended sabbaticals that alternatively may very well be held above our heads.
There are numerous selections beyond what is written right here, and your imagination can bring you a profitable return. Now is the time for you to get in on this new opportunity. Those who wait will obtain the market is no longer open to newcomers. Writing a business program and after that getting the necessary funding to take your business off the ground demands to begin now. Waiting will be an error quite a few will regret. Do not let that take place to you. Travel in space, and not just within our solar system, will be next around the list.

Following President Obama’s speech last week at the United Nations in which he urged foreign nations to embrace the principles of democracy, Hofstra Law Professor Eric Lane said in a web videoreleased today that the President should address the crisis of civic ignorance at home, before addressing democracy in developing countries.
Citing alarming findings, for example only few Americans know that there are three branches of government and what each does, Lane contends that civic literacy in the U.S. has slid to dangerous lows that demand the attention of public policy-makers at the highest levels.
Lane has studied the issue for decades and in June received a $130,000 research grant from The Atlantic Philanthropies to study civic literacy in New York State, in connection with his work at Hofstra Law and the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law, where he is the Senior Fellow.
The grant will fund a survey of more than 1,000 people, conducted by Princeton Research Survey Associates. The objective is to measure what New Yorkers know about their national government. The results and analysis will be released in a forthcoming publication.
“Historically, one of the primary goals of public education programs has been to inform young citizens about their Constitution and its underlying values so that, when they become adults, they actively engage in the political process,” Lane said. “This grant will allow us to analyze how well this has worked in New York.”
Lane is the Eric J. Schmertz Distinguished Professor of Public Law and Public Service at Hofstra Law and the senior fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law. He is co-author, with Michael Oreskes, of the book The Genius of America: How the Constitution Saved the Country and Why It Can Again, which he will discuss at the 40th Anniversary Kick-off Celebration and Alumni Reunion on October 16th.

Oh dear. Very sorry for your loss of the fighter and Tetra. They must have been beautiful to marvel at...
Now, what you have there is quite a sticky situation. I personally advise against putting the loach in with the pleco tank as they would both become extremely territorial against each other, assuming it was a common pleco. Plecos are recommended to be the only bottom dwellers and algae cleaners in a tank, and putting this loach, whichever species it may be, would cause stress and even potentially be fatal to one or the other in a tank without alot of cover and hiding caves... So my advice and honest opinion would be to not combine the Pleco and Loach if you can.
Now I am assuming that you have 3 different tanks in all, the betta and neons, the quarantine and the pleco tank yes?.
Betta and angel = death and doom.
So the best thing to do in this case, If i have my facts right in the tanks area, is that you should put the betta with the pleco and catfish. THe angel fish can go with the neons and you could give the loach a try in there.
Neons are fast and the angel is aggressive, which is quite risky but better than letting your betta be chased, your betta doesnt seem to have a typical overly-aggressive fighter characteristic, rather, more peaceful. So give it a try and monitor carefully. I am currently keeping my betta with 5 neons and a bn pleco as well!
