It could be said that Deep Ellum holds the city's soul: We can boast of its nightlife, live music and food — but today let us marvel at the neighborhood's street art. There are 50-plus pieces by various artists on the walls of restaurants, clubs and tattoo shops in Dallas’ graffiti-hood: From a portrait of beloved late chef Anthony Bourdain to the colossal impressionist elephants by Spanish artist Adrian Torres and the bird and Running Man statues by sculptor Brad Oldham.
The majority of the murals are Texas-inspired. A few are memorial pieces for those we’ve lost. One of those is next to the Wit’s End entrance on Elm; a dedication to former doorman Mo London. Most street artists (aka, writers) are using new age spray paint imported from Europe with exciting color names such as “Disco White” and various caps for detailed sprays. And then there’s the Deep Ellum legend Frank Campagna, who works with good ol’ fashioned, made-in-the-U.S.A. Krylon.
A street art stroll starting at Trigger Fingers (behind Sandbar) to Louie Louie’s Piano Bar is dotted with some beauties. Some are massive, others petite and one can smoke a brisket. The factors considered for this list were execution, appearance and content.
Pac-Man by Anonymous
Subtle, crafty and funny — this little gem utilizes some preexisting pipes to improve the corner of South Good Latimer Expressway and Main Street.
Jolly by Ace Cordell
This is how Deep Ellum smokes a brisket. This functional piece of art has Mad Max, Burning Man and steampunk vibes — and it’s a smoker. It’s one of two pieces of art by Cordell at BrainDead Brewing on Main Street.
Big Robots by Anonymous
Behind the sand volleyball courts at Sandbar and opposite the Trigger Fingers collection in a cozy urban valley are five 30-foot latex painted robots. Part of the piece’s allure is its sheer size. The large white building is an ideal canvas.
Deep Ellum Janus by Dan Colcer
This latex-painted art work on the wall of Armoury D.E. restaurant and cocktail bar on Elm Street is by one of Dallas’ most beloved artists. Colcer is a classically trained artist schooled in his native Romania and at Cairo University in Egypt. He grew up in Romania’s Transylvania region not far from the Hungary border — most likely not a coincidence that the Armoury D.E.’s menu is rooted in Hungarian cuisine.
The Robot Versus Dinosaur by Frank Campagna
Similar to the warm feeling of escaping the doldrums of Oklahoma, crossing the Red River, seeing the “Welcome to Texas” sign and entering the Lone Star State — a similar feeling happens with a glance at Campagna’s mural. As a standalone piece, it’s funky and interesting; but it’s also functional — it’s the Deep Ellum welcome sign. This black and white piece is on the west-side wall of Louie Louie's Dueling Piano Bar and for those who love Deep Ellum, when you see this piece, you know you’re home.
Stevie Ray Ellum by Steve Hunter
We published an article in November 2017 titled, “Deep Ellum Didn't Have Any Stevie Ray Vaughan Murals Until an Artist Created 3 This Year.” That artist is Steve Hunter, and his Stevie art is glorious. Hunter’s bright, prismatic odes to the Dallas-born “SRV” brightens up the neighborhood. Like T-4-2 and the Dixie Chicks, Stevie Ray Vaughan unequivocally Dallas. RIP legend.
Trigger Fingers by Various Artists
Not far from Sandbar’s beach volleyball courts is Deep Ellum’s largest, centralized collection of street art. Directly opposite “Big Robots” are 15 beautiful pieces on a 20-foot-tall wall that stretches more than 100 yards. More than 20 writers gathered for a graffiti-jam in March, and “Trigger Fingers” was born. Pack a lunch, hang out and soak in the wall for a while. Give a close-eye look at Lui the Great’s piece, and notice the Dallas skyline in the eye of the woman warrior. And after hanging in the graffiti gorge with “Big Robots” and “Trigger Fingers,” there’s also a quality Frank Campagna piece around the corner on Hickory Street that’s also worth a look.
Rush Hour by Dan Kitchener
This freehand aerosol piece on Main Street is the work of a certified muralist global superstar, Dan Kitchener. The Tokyo-inspired piece is on the east-side wall of The Green Room on Elm Street. Other work by the British artist is found in Miami at the world-famous Wynwood Walls; New York City; Moscow; and loads of other places around the world. Red taillights and wet roads are common in his works, which Kitchener illustrates brilliantly.
Nolan Ryan Headlock by Isaac Davies
It was Aug. 4, 1993, and the Texas Rangers were hosting the Chicago White Sox. Nolan Ryan was on the mound and Robin Ventura dug in at the plate for the Sox. Ryan’s fastball was high, tight and hit Ventura in the back. Then Ventura made the biggest mistake of his life and charged the mound. Ryan, 20 years older than Ventura, grabbed him like a steer and delivered a series of uppercut blows to Ventura’s face. This phenomenal moment in Texas history is vividly remembered on the east-side wall of Wit’s End on Crowdus Street. Also visit Deep Ellum Art Co., Deep Ellum’s official-unofficial art community homebase. Have a few cocktails there and check out another piece by Davies, particularly the motorcycle mural in the beer garden.
Luka Wonder Boy and Kristaps Unicorn by Preston Pannek and Adrienne Creasey
One man can’t fill the shoes of the Mavericks’ beloved Dirk Nowitzki, but the Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis duo are doing a pretty damn good job. Here they are super humanized on the east-side wall of St. Pete's Dancing Marlin at South Crowdus Street. The creators of several murals throughout Deep Ellum, Pannek and Creasey's veterans mural on The Green Room was infamously blacked out in 2018. Other pieces by the artist include “The Godfathers of Deep Ellum” on the west-side wall of the Deep Ellum Art Co. The Lake Highlander presented a purple-hazed portrait to Sander Van Doorn ahead of his DJ set at Lizard Lounge on Saturday night. This piece is part of an electronic music-inspired series by Pannek and Creasey.

Alia Bhatt is one of the most sought after heroines in Bollywood. She is the daughter of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and actress Soni Razdan. All decked up and ready to shoot, she is looking hot for the camera.
Alia Bhatt's first movie debut was Sangharsh (1999) as a child actor. Years later, she starred in the movie Student of the Year alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan. She knows she oozes hotness, even when draped in this pretty dress.
Being a fashionista, Alia Bhatt launched her own line of clothing for women titled Very Simple & Very Me. Classy, modern and born with a silver spoon, she loves to flaunt her bags and clothes. Hot, stylish and suave seems to define her swag.
Alia Bhatt is very active on social media. Her Instagram, Twitter and Facebook pages have more than five million fans. Alia Bhatt has a body to die for; her hot photos are one of the most downloaded on the internet.
Like every starlet, Alia Bhatt dreamt of being an actress since her childhood days. But, when that opportunity arrived, Karan Johar was willing to offer her the lead role only if she lost 20kgs. Never shy to be herself, she strikes a seductive yet elegant pose for the camera.
Alia Bhatt went on a strict diet and fitness routine since that moment. Finally, after three months she lost a lot of weight and was ready to portray her movie character Shanaya Singhania, who was a hot and young college girl. Hot pictures of her are a rage online.
Alia Bhatt's workout routine mainly consists of altitude training, beach running, swimming, kickboxing, weights, functional and circuit training. She often lets the fans know of her progress by posting hot pics such as on her Instagram.
From being a chubby girl to a sensuous actress, Alia has come a long way proving that its never to late to get fit! She never shied away from cameras, and has done numerous hot photoshoots for several brands.

Said farewell to my childhood bunk beds today. Sigh. Progress. 🙂
I have been DYING for a new living room rug, every since I moved back into the house 4 years ago. This is because the old rug looked like this:
Replacing it was not easy because I needed something in the 10×13 to 12×15 range, i.e. not cheap.
I thought I had found a worthy candidate for ~$400, and web-stalked it for about…a year. I finally decided to order a small size to check it out (and see if the cat would scratch it).
It was… meh, but I probably would’ve made do if the cat didn’t go ballistic on it almost immediately.
At a loss, I now put off the rug purchase indefinitely. And of course, a few weeks later, the perfect rug dropped in my lap via one of the links at the top of gmail:
You have to dig a bit for the not-scary-traditional rugs on the site, but they are there and so beautiful. And so cheap! (AND it arrived in 3 days!)
After finding a 10% off coupon code, the final total for the 10×13 rug = $312 (inc. a freebie 2×3 area rug and free shipping).
(Because I don’t really travel that much, that’s just what I get off my ass and blog about…)
1) Finding and emailing every potential beach wedding venue this side of the Jersey Shore…
[this one’s blissfully all wrapped up, but I’m leaving it as a reminder of how long it takes me to finish a blog entry.]
2) Designing a kitchen we can’t afford…
3) Watching tv, especially HGTV with which I’m hoping our snark can be one day be turned into a blog…
4) Entering the last 3 years of financial data into quicken…
5) Online shopping …
6) Lots of personal reflection/growth time (including Mondo Beyondo, tons of books, and APW’s well-timed things to think about)…
8) Squeezing in some kind of exercise in the increasingly colder and darker days…
[thanks Jackie Warner for lighting a fire under my ass this summer]
9) Taking an acting class…
10) And trying to write this damn blog.
Before I get going on the before/after bonanza, a little background on my long-awaited bathroom renovation:
Four amazingly short years ago, in 2006, I moved back to LI from LA to re-inhabit my childhood home that had been passed down to me from my grandparents and my mom. In a bit of a pickle/temper tantrum, I had chosen to stay in LA to finish school and avoid the looming responsibility of said house, which I was too attached to to sell and too post-adolescent to actually want to live in. So for several years it had been loaned/rented out to friends and people found on Craigslist.
Needless to say, upon my return the place was a shithole. But I got lucky actually, those years of being a rental could definitely have gone a lot worse.
Sadly, it was a downhill decline for my poor bath even after I moved back in: water damage, mold, failing pipes, carpenter ants, ugly eighties design–the poor thing was just ravaged, and I had zero dollars to fix it.
After 3 years of feeling helpless, I found the good people at CDCLI through the HUD website, and my 4 years (including one year of applying for and waiting to start their program) of the simple dream of a working sink and a shower with walls became a reality in 4 days of work.
Here you can see some bathroom Befores:
This picture, if you can believe it, makes it look much better than it was, though you can get an idea of how the wall behind the toilet was also rotting away due to repeated water damage from the leaky sink.
I worked with CDCLI to supply some materials courtesy of my awesome and generous boss Felicitas Oefelein of FO Design, and my own penny-pinching ingenuity. As we collected more and more bathroom reno-related items, our office/craft room became a storage facility.
Above you can see my attempts at deciding on accent tiles the weekend before they started to work. Using basic Home Depot grade subway tiles (~$0.80/sq. ft.) with a bit of mosaic accent tile was a great way to do something beyond a contractor-grade basic bath without spending a ton.
The accent I wound up falling in love with was a glass and stone mosaic that, because this is how my life works, was discontinued and nearly out of stock at Home Depot. After trips to 6 stores, I had hunted down exactly 6 3″x12″ pieces (and sadly this was all from the first 2 stores), so I decided to have our contractor cut down each piece into 2″ x 12″ pieces so they would reach around the bath. At $8 a piece this was probably for the best, as this accent wound up being a $50 splurge!
But I love the blending of modern and classic these give the room; it helps to bridge the gap between the traditional white subway tiles and white hex floor tiles, and my super-modern (super-affordable) Ikea vanity.
Ed. note: For the reno purists out there, we did salvage the original hamper, and I’m hoping to give it a fresh coat of paint and install it in the storage closet or master bedroom. It’s an awesome original piece, but so not a good idea for a bathroom—dirty items, humidity, you get the idea.
Also, this entry will be launching a side blog about the slow road to renovation on my childhood home over at Surburban Archeology. Not really having a clue what I want this blog (much like my real life) to be about, I might be posting things in duplicate, or there may be more detail over there. We will see where it goes….
Here’s a sneak peek:

Men's And Women's Swimming Dominate U-Mass DartmouthBy David Chatwin
On Tuesday, the men's and women's swim teams traveled to UMass-Dartmouth for their final away meet of the year. Coming off of a rigorous IAP training schedule and close meets against Wellesley College and Southern Connecticut State University, the swimmers were looking forward to a more relaxing competition. The Engineers showed their dominance by winning the opening relays and they never looked back, defeating the Corsairs handily.
The best performances of the meet came in the distance events with Ken McCracken '00, Corey Gerritsen '02, Kristen Clements '02 and Christina Wilbert '01 swimming season bests in the 400 yard individual medley. McCracken, who was the MVP of the meet for the men, swam the 500 yard freestyle in 5:08. For the women's 500, Clements turned in another great swim with a New England Championship qualifying time of 5:41. To complete the distance events, Kevin Musselwhite '99 demonstrated his increasing aptitude for the 1000 yard freestyle by winning the race with a time of 10:52.
One of the most exciting races of the day was the men's 200 yard freestyle with two of MIT's most promising freshmen, Grant Kristofek '02 and Nathan Janos '02, battling it out. Both finished with a time of 1:51, with the win going to Grant by a fraction a second.
MIT's divers also contributed to the victory, with veteran Dylan Birtolo '00 placing first in the men's competition and the rookie Dara Jeffries '02, diving in her first collegiate competition, coming in third for the women.
Continuing their season-long breaststroke dominance, the women's tag team of Lea Engst '02 and Erica Fuchs '99, once again placed first and second in the 200 yard breaststroke.
To punctuate the win the men's team swept the final 4x50 yard freestyle relay. All three teams from MIT finished far ahead of the pack and within one second of each other.
Coach Maryellen McLaughlin was pleased with the results of the competition. "It was a great win at this time of the year. The team was broken down because of the hard training that we have been doing. The swimmers were able to rise above that and had some outstanding performances," McLaughlin said.

The aim of the present study was to examine the relevance of depressive symptoms during an acute schizophrenic episode for the prediction of treatment response. Two hundred inpatients who fulfilled DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia or schizophreniform disorders were assessed at hospital admission and after 6 weeks of inpatient treatment using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D). Depressive symptoms showed positive correlations with both positive and negative symptoms at admission and after 6 weeks, and decreased during 6 weeks of treatment. Pronounced depressive symptoms (HAM-D score> or =16) were found in 28% of the sample at admission and in 9% after 6 weeks of treatment. Depressive symptoms at admission predicted a greater improvement of positive and negative symptoms over 6 weeks of treatment, but also more, rather than fewer remaining symptoms after 6 weeks. Both results, however, lost statistical significance when analyses were controlled for the influence of positive and negative symptoms at admission. Therefore, the hypothesis that depressive symptoms are predictive of a favorable treatment response was not supported by the present study.

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds can evade the circle in a brand new location starting this very day.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds showed up at The Game Awards 2017, as you’d jolly well hope given how it has dominated this past year in gaming.
Developer Bluehole used the opportunity to announce it is opening the new Miramar desert map on PUBG’s test servers tonight. You’ll be able to play for about four hours after The Game Awards ends, which right now feels like it may never happen to be honest.
Whether you dive in or not, you can get an eyeful of the Miramar desert map by admiring the new PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds trailer below. How convenient! The map will be free for all players, by the way.
Here’s PlayerUnknown and Bluehole’s statement on the new map:
We are excited beyond words that we can finally share the name of our new desert map and tell you a little bit about some of the places you can visit. When we decided to create a new map, we focused on creating an environment that is very different from Erangel. We wanted to go the opposite direction of having lush fields and forests and arrived at the harsh and unforgiving desert of what we can now reveal is Miramar. The unique terrain and dense urban areas of Miramar will create a new Battle Royale experience where the old strategies may no longer work and new tactics are required.
Rad. Let us know how you go if you try the test servers tonight.
Bluehole also reiterated that the Xbox One version of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is set for December 12, and said the Version 1.0 release of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on PC is coming December 20.

Diabetes mellitus alludes to a gathering of illnesses that influence how the body utilizes glucose (glucose). According to Dr. Mohamed Aswad glucose is a significant wellspring of energy for the phones that make up the muscles and tissues. It’s additionally the mind’s principal wellspring of fuel.
The primary driver of diabetes shifts by type. In any case, regardless of what kind of diabetes you have, it can prompt abundance sugar in the blood. A lot of sugar in the blood can prompt serious medical issues.
Constant diabetes conditions incorporate sort 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Prediabetes happens when glucose levels are higher than typical. Be that as it may, the glucose levels aren’t sufficiently high to be called diabetes. Furthermore, prediabetes can prompt diabetes except if steps are taken to forestall it. Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy. Be that as it may, it might disappear after the child is conceived.
Diabetes side effects really rely on how high your glucose is. Certain individuals, particularly assuming they have prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, might not have side effects. In type 1 diabetes, side effects will generally come on rapidly and be more serious.
A portion of the side effects of type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes are:
Feeling more parched than expected.
gaining physical fitness without exerting much effort.
Presence of ketones in the pee. When there is inadequate free insulin, muscle and fat break down and produce ketones as a byproduct.
feeling exhausted and helpless.
Feeling crabby or having other mind-set changes.
Having foggy vision.
Having slow-recuperating injuries.
Getting a great deal of diseases, like gum, skin and vaginal contaminations.
According to Dr. Mohamed Aswadtype 1 diabetes can begin at whatever stage in life. However, it frequently begins during adolescence or youngster years. Type 2 diabetes, the more normal sort, can create at whatever stage in life. Type 2 diabetes is more normal in individuals more seasoned than 40.
When to see a specialist
In the event that you figure you or your kid might have diabetes. Assuming you notice any conceivable diabetes side effects, contact your medical services supplier.
On the off chance that you’ve proactively been determined to have diabetes. After you accept your conclusion, you’ll require close clinical development until your glucose levels balance out
To comprehend diabetes, it’s vital to comprehend how the body ordinarily utilizes glucose.
How insulin functions
Insulin is a chemical that comes from an organ behind and beneath the stomach (pancreas).
The pancreas discharges insulin into the circulatory system.
The insulin courses, allowing sugar to enter the cells.
Insulin brings down how much sugar in the circulation system.
As the glucose level drops, so does the emission of insulin from the pancreas.
The job of glucose
Glucose — a sugar — is a wellspring of energy for the phones that make up muscles and different tissues.
Glucose comes from two significant sources: food and the liver.
Sugar is assimilated into the circulatory system, where it enters cells with the assistance of insulin.
The liver stores and makes glucose.
At the point when glucose levels are low, for example, when you haven’t eaten in some time, the liver separates put away glycogen into glucose. This keeps your glucose level inside a run of the mill range.
The specific reason for most kinds of diabetes is obscure. In all cases, sugar develops in the circulatory system. This is on the grounds that the pancreas doesn’t deliver sufficient insulin. Both sort 1 and type 2 diabetes might be brought about by a mix of hereditary or ecological variables. It is hazy what those variables might be, said Dr. Mohamed Aswad.
Risk factors for diabetes rely upon the kind of diabetes. Family ancestry might have an impact in numerous kinds. Natural variables and geology can add to the gamble of type 1 diabetes.
Now and again relatives of individuals with type 1 diabetes are tried for the presence of diabetes insusceptible framework cells (autoantibodies). Assuming you have these autoantibodies, you have an expanded gamble of creating type 1 diabetes. Yet, not every person who has these autoantibodies creates diabetes.
Race or identity likewise may raise your gamble of creating type 2 diabetes. In spite of the fact that it’s muddled why, certain individuals — including Black, Hispanic, American Indian and Asian American individuals — are at higher gamble.
Prediabetes, type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes are more normal in individuals who are overweight or large.
Long haul complexities of diabetes grow bit by bit. The more you have diabetes — and the less controlled your glucose — the higher the gamble of complexities. In the end, diabetes complexities might be handicapping or even dangerous. Prediabetes can prompt sort 2 diabetes, as a matter of fact. Potential entanglements include:
As per Dr. Mohamed Aswadheart and vein (cardiovascular) infection. Diabetes significantly expands the gamble of numerous heart issues. These can incorporate coronary vein infection with chest torment (angina), respiratory failure, stroke and limiting of courses (atherosclerosis).
Nerve harm (neuropathy). A lot of sugar can harm the walls of the minuscule veins (vessels) that support the nerves, particularly in the legs. This can cause shivering, deadness, consuming or torment that generally starts at the tips of the toes or fingers and slowly spreads up.
Harm to the nerves connected with absorption can bring on some issues with sickness, retching, the runs or clogging. For men, it might prompt erectile brokenness.
Kidney harm (nephropathy). The kidneys hold a huge number of little vein bunches (glomeruli) that channel squander from the blood. Diabetes can harm this sensitive separating framework.
Eye harm (retinopathy). Diabetes can harm the veins of the eye (diabetic retinopathy). This could prompt visual deficiency.
Foot harm. Nerve harm in the feet or unfortunate blood stream to the feet expands the gamble of many foot confusions.

Picture this: a thriller about a team of scientists from the Center for Disease Control who travel to a high-tech research facility in the Arctic to investigate a possible disease outbreak. Once there, the team finds themselves in a life-or-death struggle that will hold the key to the annihilation or salvation of mankind.
Sounds good, right? Well, that’s what Syfy thought, too. The cable network announced on Thursday that it has given a straight-to-series order for Ron Moore’s (Battlestar Galactica) new drama Helix. That’s great news for fans who are looking forward to seeing the show, which has already bypassed the pilot stage and will air 13 episodes in its first season. Hit the jump to find out more about the new series.
THR reports that Moore will helm the drama as executive producer, along with Lynda Obst (Contact), Steven Maeda (Lost) and Cameron Porsandeh, who also wrote the pilot. Casting and production are set to begin shortly and the network is apparently shooting for a debut later this year.
Here’s what Mark Stern, Syfy president of original content and co-head of original content at cable arm Universal Cable Productions, had to say about the project:
“With its well-drawn characters, taut drama and incredible production team, we couldn’t be more excited to see this intense thrill ride of a series come to life.”
Some are comparing Helix to that other post-apocalyptic drama known as The Walking Dead, but seeing as there has been no mention of flesh-eating zombies in Helix, I think I’ll hold my comparisons until I’ve seen it. From the description alone, it sounds like this could be another one to add to my DVR, but of course it remains to be seen if Helix will fulfill its tantalizing promises.

The proposed project, given the address of 11746 South Street, would rise from an L-shaped property which also has frontage on Pioneer Boulevard to the east. The 1.86-acre property would see the construction of a new five-story edifice featuring 168 apartments atop 7,000 square feet of ground-floor commercial space and parking for 222 vehicles. Plans indicate that the project would include 12 live/work loft units and eight workforce housing units.
Andmore Partners is designing the mixed-use project, which is depicted in renderings as a contemporary podium-type building. Retail uses would be oriented toward the northern side of the site, fronting South Street, while live/work apartments would line the southern and eastern property lines. Images also show that the building would include a central courtyard and a south-facing amenity deck at the podium level.
Property records list the owner of the development site as Pioneer Rock Properties.
The proposed project may be a sign of things to come in Artesia, where a new specific plan for the city's downtown along Pioneer Boulevard is expected to pave the way for similar housing developments. The future southern terminus of Metro's Southeast Gateway Line - formerly the West Santa Ana Branch - is planned one block to the north of the project site, and is expected to be open for passenger service by 2035.

Sullay Kaikai (pictured) scored a brilliant goal for Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday as his side thrashed Sheffield United 4-2 away from home.
The host got their breakthrough in the 17th minute goal from Connor Salmon, but the visitors hit back with four straight goals.
The Palace youngster Kaikai was the first to showcase his talent with a wonder strike in the 25th minute, before Ian Black, Scott Vernon and finally James Collins.
Arguably his goal at the Bramall Lane stadium has been his best in blue and gold since arriving from Palace on loan.
Kaikai, 20, hailing from Sierra Leonean parents have already expressed a personal desire to stay at Meadows lane until the end of the season.
The youngster hopes of breaking into Alan Pardew’s first-team is on track considering his recent form in front of goal, his fifth goal in his last six games.
The hosts grabbed a late consolation through Dean Hammond.

Delhi: AAP’s Satyendar Jain hospitalised after falling in Tihar Jail bathroom
25 May, 2023 | Vaishali Sharma
Former Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain was hospitalised on Thursday after slipping and falling in the toilet at Delhi's Tihar Jail, officials said.
Former Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain was hospitalised on Thursday after slipping and falling in the toilet at Delhi’s Tihar Jail, officials said. Jain, who has been held in Tihar Jail since last year, was admitted to Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital with minor injuries.
“This morning around 6 am, under trial prisoner (UTP) Dr Satendra Jain slipped and fell in the bathroom of the Medical Inspection (MI) room of the hospital of Central Jail (CJ-7), where he was kept under observation for general weakness,” as per an official statement from the prison officials.
According to officials, Jain was examined by doctors and his vital organs were found to be normal.
“He was further referred to DDU Hospital as he complained about back, left leg and shoulder pain,” said an official statement from prison officials.
Former AAP minister Jain was taken to Safdarjung Hospital on Monday after complaining of health problems.
According to the AAP, Jain has acute lumbar pain that causes vertigo and chronic lower back pain due to a slipped disc. According to the party, the pain radiates throughout his lower limbs, leaving him with a constant tingling sensation and decreased mobility.
According to the AAP, a recent MRI on May 3 revealed degeneration in all of Satyendar Jain’s intervertebral discs, prompting doctors to recommend urgent spinal/vertebral surgery and proper post-operative care.
The ED case is based on a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) complaint alleging that Satyender Jain acquired movable properties in the names of various people between February 14, 2015, and May 31, 2017, for which he could not account satisfactorily.

New season, same old Dallas Mavericks. Tuesday night a rowdy American Airlines Center crowd filled the arena and watched helplessly as the Washington Wizards performed magical tricks on the new-look Mavericks 102-91, helping them to start the new NBA season the way they ended the last, with a loss.
Andray Blatche (20 points, 7 rebounds, assist) Gilbert Arenas (29 points, 2 rebounds, 9 assists) and Randy Foye (19 points, 3 rebounds, 2 steals, assist)paced the rejuvenated Wizards playing for the first time with veteran head coach Phil Saunders leading the bench.
Meanwhile, the aging Mavericks not only looked like they had tired legs but played without any real flow or consistency on either side of the ball. Playing without the services of forward Josh Howard while he rehabs from off-season wrist and ankle surgery, the Mavericks relied too heavily on their only scoring threat Dirk Nowitzski (34 points, 9 rebounds, 2 blocks, assist) and got little to no help from newcomers Shawn Marion (16 points, 7 rebounds, 3 blocks) and former SMU stand-out Quinton Ross (2 points, no rebounds, no assists, 4 fouls)
In post game reports on NBA.com, Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle was disappointed by the team's poor home performance and stressed the need to improve defensively. "It's just disappointing," he said. "This is one of those nights where we're not shooting it well and you've got to hang in the game with your defense and we just weren't able to do it."
"We're a team that scores," Carlisle said. "When we score and we shoot well, everything else falls into place. The real challenge for us is to become a team that can be persistent enough on defense and hold ourselves in games when we're not shooting great."
That's not good news for Mavs fans and if this type of play continues it's gonna be one long season for those that have chosen to stick it out with the Mavs. Not me, not to this year. I'm all-in with the Lakers!

Getting to know Wendy Westlake
May 9th, 2019
Who is, or has been, the biggest influence on your art?
Perhaps it's strange but my non-artist husband, Eric, has definitely had the biggest influence on my art career. He doesn't say much about the actual art but over the years he has helped me build studios, hauled paintings, attended shows and been very supportive. If not for him, I would not be doing what I am now.
What inspired you to study to become an artist?
I knew at a very young age I wanted to be an artist. I was always drawn to art classes in elementary school. When it came time to pick a major in college I had heard all the jokes about artists not being able to support themselves and make a living. But art was too much a part of me. I couldn't not study art.
How long have you been working with your medium?
I've been familiar with acrylics for many years. I've been committed to exploring acrylics and unique textures with acrylic mediums for the last four years.
Where do you get your inspirations for your work?
I'm inspired by nature and the created world. The variety of color, pattern and texture are endless.
What is your creative process like?
I usually begin with a sketch of some kind. More often I am using my computer to generate these. I like to challenge myself with regard to color and spatial relationships and the computer helps me explore options much quicker than hand rendering. Then when I am painting the actual piece I sometimes abandon the sketch in favor of what is happening on the surface of the canvas. Sometimes what looks right on a small sheet of paper just doesn't work as well when sized up large scale.
What are the most important factors you consider when you create your work?
I constantly ask myself, "Is it interesting?" and "What if I did...?" For me this keeps the work fresh and keeps me engaged. While overall aesthetic and beauty are important I find myself less interested in achieving those goals and more motivated to pursue the unique and interesting.
How has your practice changed over time?
Well, I have a studio space that is 25' x 50' so I have LOTS of space. It comes in handy when painting (and storing) large canvases. I used to paint watercolors on my kitchen table. It would be hard to do that with a six foot canvas! I'm definitely interested in large-scale paintings. I like seeing them and I like painting them, so a large studio space has been crucial to that aim.
What do you think is the most difficult aspect of making work? Why?
I think it's difficult to really know yourself as an artist, at least it has been for me. There are so many voices that an artist hears about what is "good art" and what "might sell" and what "has been done before" and what is "significant art" that it can be almost paralyzing to move forward. There's a lot of anxiety for most artist when putting their work out there especially when just getting started. It's a very vulnerable feeling. To move forward confident of my own voice has been a difficult journey. I feel I am just finding my voice and it's very exciting!
Which of your works is your personal favorite and why?
I don't mean this to sound cliché, but it's the one I'm currently working on, whichever that may be. Each one is an exploration and in some way new territory, an exciting journey of it's own.
Of all your travels, which city or place inspires you the most? Why?
Four years ago some friends and I went to the art and design district on Dragon Street in Dallas Texas. There were so many fabulous galleries just steps away from each other. The first one we visited had these huge canvases twelve feet by nine feet plus with waves of thick vibrant oil paint swirling across it. Another gallery displayed a super large-scale contemporary painting of an artist I'd been following for years. They hung it outside their front door in a sheltered entry area. These paintings just grabbed me. Their scale alone was so engaging and to see all these galleries celebrating and selling gorgeous contemporary large-scale art. I just wanted to experience that for myself.
What is something quirky or unexpected about you that most people don't know?
I play the violin with our church praise band. My three older sisters all play instruments too. Sometimes, not as often as we'd like, we get to sing and play together.
Also, I can tell the colors/ flavors of all four Swedish fish with my eyes closed. My husband didn't believe me so he put me to the test. I went 10 for 10.

Claims for damages towards ComparetheMarket on behalf of over 20 million UK home insurance customers – Lexology
London, November 1, 2021 – Home Insurance Consumer Action today filed a class action lawsuit against the companies behind Comparethemarket.com on behalf of over 20 million UK home insurance consumers.
The lawsuit follows on from the Competition and Markets Authority's finding last year that ComparetheMarket violated competition law in relation to its contracts with certain insurers listed on its website, and is based on the allegation that ComparetheMarket's conduct led to higher home insurance prices for all UK consumers.
The lawsuit is based on the CMA's November 2020 decision, which found that the price comparison website ComparetheMarket violated competition law by using extensive most-favored-nation treatment clauses (MFN) in its contracts with 32 home insurers. The illegal broad most favored nation clauses prevented these home insurers from offering consumers lower prices on other price comparison sites. The CMA concluded that ComparetheMarket's behavior affected competition between price comparison websites and between home insurers listing on price comparison websites. The CMA also found that consumers who purchased home insurance through a price comparison website were likely to have paid higher prices due to the actions of ComparetheMarket.
In today's lawsuit, Home Insurance Consumer Action claims that ComparetheMarket's behavior resulted in all home insurance buyers overpaying for their policies, whether those policies were purchased through ComparetheMarket, any other price comparison website, or on other way, such as from an insurer. Currently, she believes it is likely that all home insurance purchases, including renewals, made between October 1, 2015 and October 1 as the claim will progress. ComparetheMarket is currently appealing the CMA's decision and the appeal is pending before the Competition Appeal Tribunal.
Home Insurance Consumer Action, led by Director Kate Wellington, is filing the lawsuit on behalf of consumers today to protect class plaintiffs' right to redress while on appeal. Home Insurance Consumer Action will ask the Competition Appeal Tribunal to suspend its action pending the outcome of ComparetheMarket's appeal.
Kate Wellington, director of Home Insurance Consumer Action Limited, said:
“Price comparison websites should play an important role in helping consumers make informed pricing decisions. Unfortunately, ComparetheMarket's anticompetitive behavior has done the opposite, likely increasing home insurance prices for over 20 million UK consumers. I firmly believe that consumers who overpay should be reimbursed and I am happy to lead this claim. "
Nicola Boyle, partner at Hausfeld law firm who leads the Hausfeld team for Home Insurance Consumer Action Limited, said:
"The competition and market authority has determined that ComparetheMarket is violating competition law and it is right that consumers who have been forced to pay higher prices as a result of this behavior are effectively compensated."

Portugal may not be large in size but you can expect a range of weather conditions depending on the region you find yourself in. In general, however, Portugal is said to experience a Mediterranean type of climate which is even more so when heading towards the eastern border with Spain and the south of the country towards northern Africa. Despite its variations in climate, Portugal actually boasts some of the warmest temperatures of all European countries and some of its regions make it a top travel destination almost all year-round.
The Climate in Northern Portugal
The northern part of Portugal; where you'll find the districts of Braga, Bragança, Porto, Viana do Castelo, Vila Real, Aveiro, Guarda and Viseu; experiences much cooler temperatures as well as more rainfall than in other parts of the country. Being mountainous with central highlands and rising plateaus of up to 6,000 ft or more, a barrier to the winds of the Atlantic is created and in turn traps cool air and rain on the north side of the mountains. Given these fresher climatic conditions, northern Portugal offers some of the country's most picturesque landscapes with vast green lands as far as the eye can see.
Northwestern Portugal is greatly influenced by the currents of the Atlantic and follows a typical Mediterranean trend whereby winters are mild and wet; and summers are hot and dry. From June to September, temperatures will usually average around the high 20s with low humidity levels. It is also not uncommon for heat waves to pass through the area generally lasting 5 to 10 days at a time with temperatures reaching sweltering levels such as the high 30s. The winter months, from December to February, generally experience high levels of rainfall and it is during this season that temperatures yo-yo greatly as averaging 5ºC to freezing during the night and early morning but increase to 13ºC - 16ºC during the afternoon.
Towards northeastern Portugal, in direction of the Cantabrian Mountains and the Spanish border, very different climatic conditions can be found which are influenced by the higher altitudes of the region and its far distance from the coastline. Winter is generally quite severe in the cities of high altitudes whereby temperatures can dip to a teeth-chattering -15ºC. Snow in these areas is also a regular occurrence and can settle for several weeks at a time. Temperatures, however, are less drastic in the regions of lower altitudes with averages of around 6ºC or slightly lower. Contrary to wintertime, the summer season in northeastern Portugal is short but very hot. Without the advantage of coastal breezes, temperatures soar dramatically with normal highs ranging between 28ºC to the high 30s.
If you head south, remaining inland, you will encounter the highest mountain range in Portugal known as Serra da Estrela Nature Park reaching an altitude of 1,993 m. This is a popular destination mainly during the winter when the park is covered in white snow making it possible to practice various kinds of winter sports.
The Climate in Central Portugal
The climate in central Portugal can be described as much more forgiving than the severe conditions of the north and the sweltering heat of the south. It is in central Portugal that you will find the districts of Castelo Branco, Coimbra, Leiria, Aveiro, Guarda, Santarém, Viseu, Lisbon and Setubal.
The best thing about the weather in central Portugal is that it doesn't really get too hot or too cold despite the occasional exception. Winters bring mild temperatures but are also quite damp, whereas summers run for longer periods and are dry. It is said to be the region that is comfortably hot where spring and summers are sunny and winters are crisp but still warm enough to pack only a thin jumper or light coat. Temperatures in central Portugal rarely go below 10ºC during winter months and can average the mid-20s during the summer months of July-September. The higher north you are in this region, the colder the temperatures will be but if you head south you can enjoy much more pleasant conditions influenced by the warm winds that drive up from the Mediterranean.
The Climate in Southern Portugal
Most famous for its long golden coastline and hot weather, southern Portugal contains some of the most emblematic scenery of the country filled with photogenic seascapes that serve as magnets for tourists from across the world. Particularly loved by the British and expats, the most southern part of Portugal offers a climate perfect for those that enjoy spending long hours soaking up the sun's rays whilst being surrounded by sparkling blue waters, long stretches of sandy beaches and blue skies. The majority of Portugal's best beaches are found in the Algarve region which includes the Faro district. Another region of southern Portugal is the Alentejo which contains districts such as Beja, Évora, Portalegre and Santarém.
Conditions in the south are considerably hot as a result of the increasing proximity to the equator and of influences coming up from Africa and from across the Mediterranean on the east side. With winds trapped among the mountains in northern Portugal, southern Portugal's climate stays relatively dry throughout the year with temperatures almost un-moderated.
During summertime, the longest season, temperatures frequently reach highs of 30ºC but like most coastal regions, are tempered by sea breezes which are highly refreshing and bring relief from the sizzling heat. During winter, the shortest season, winds pick up warmth from the waters of the Atlantic Ocean which have been heated during the hot summer months. As these winds pass through the region, breezes are felt as warm and pleasant, even during evening hours. In terms of hours of sunshine, southern Portugal experiences a definite increase meaning you can get more out of each day of your holiday in this region. It is no wonder this is the most travelled to destination in Portugal!

Ever since HBO’s “Silicon Valley” premiered last month, it’s become a parlor game among the tech media to debate the accuracy of the Mike Judge comedy’s satire of startup culture, from the uniform of its characters to the Valley’s “change the world” ethos.
And as with every satire, not everyone appreciates the way they’re portrayed — but the “Silicon Valley” stars insist it’s an homage, not a critique.
“The purpose of the show isn’t to take Silicon Valley down a peg,” says star Thomas Middleditch. “Why you want to watch the show is you want to watch these guys struggle, essentially going from rags to riches.”
Middleditch plays Richard, who invents a file-compression algorithm called Pied Piper that sparks a bidding war in Silicon Valley. The first season follows him, his blowhard business partner Erlich (T.J. Miller) and the rest of their motley crew of programmers as they endeavor to turn Pied Piper into a viable business to present at the TechCrunch Disrupt startup conference.
In a bit of life imitating art, Miller and Middleditch spoke at TechCrunch Disrupt in New York this week — and saw the fictionalized world of their show validated by reality.
“We had been exposed to the HBO ‘Silicon Valley’ fake version of this, where they had sort of set it up to satirize that, and now [we’re] at the real version in New York City and it’s f–king weird,” Miller says over drinks at the Refinery Hotel. “It’s very similar to what we were satirizing.”
The show, in fact, is partially inspired by Judge’s experience as a Silicon Valley engineer in the late 1980s, and Middleditch — who met Miller 10 years ago on the Chicago comedy scene — considered pursuing computers as a career when acting wasn’t panning out.
That’s all history now that “Silicon Valley” is averaging 5.4 million viewers per episode and HBO has already renewed it for Season 2 — a success its stars credit to the show zeroing in on a culturally relevant topic that is ripe for satire.
“There is this strange moment where people do understand what an algorithm is, what apps are,” Miller says. “They’re reading about Snapchat turning down the offer for billions of dollars from Facebook.”
“What kind of world begs to be taken seriously when they turn down $3 billion?” adds Middleditch. “If you’re like, ‘We don’t deserve any satire or parody,’ I think maybe you do. You just turned down a country’s wealth.”
With three episodes left to air this season, writers have yet to start tackling a narrative arc for Season 2, but the stars say it will likely deal with the next stage of their fledgling start-up and how success impacts their group dynamic.
“Even if they get more money, that’s mo’ money, mo’ problems,” Middleditch says. “There’s that conflict and that struggle and that mounting pressure that’s never going to end, that’s the crux of the show.”

This October, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month …
PINK IS THE NEW BLACK
Be sure to take a picture wearing pink along with your family, friends and co-workers and post it at #PinkIsTheNewBlack to show your support.
Thanks to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Philadelphia and the Bra & Girdle Factory who are helping make #PinkIsTheNewBlack possible, providing you with helpful information to keep you happy & healthy!
Keep reading for a review of the most important things to keep in mind for prevention and early detection of breast cancer, as well as how YOU can help the fight to find a cure.
Did you know?
According to the National Cancer Institute, Breast cancer is the most common type of non-skin cancer in women in the United States, accounting for 14 percent of all new cases. And it is second to lung cancer as a cause of cancer death in American women. About 1 in 8 women born today in the United States will get breast cancer at some point, according to The National Institute of Health. For more facts on Breast Cancer Click Here.
We’re not doctors, so we always recommend going to see you physician for professional advice, but here’s an explanation of PREVENTION along with some simple tips that we’ve gathered from the National Institute of Health, NationalBreastCancer.org, and BreastCancer.org.
Cancer prevention is action taken to lower the chance of getting cancer. To prevent new cancers from starting, scientists look at risk factors and protective factors. Anything that increases your chance of developing cancer is called a cancer risk factor; anything that decreases your chance of developing cancer is called a cancer protective factor.
Control what you can …
Give yourself a monthly breast exam and look out for any changes http://www.nationalbreastcancer.org/breast-self-exam
Avoid smoking and other tobacco use https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/tobacco
Wear sunblock and limit unprotected sunlight https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/sunlight
Commit to a regular exercise regimen https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/obesity/physical-activity-fact-sheet
Eat healthy and maintain a healthy weight https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/diet
If you are at high risk, speak to your doctor about other preventive options like taking medicine to treat/prevent precancerous conditions or risk-reducing surgeries.
Know if you might be at risk due to …
A lifestyle that is counter to any of the above
Know your family history and potential genetic predispositions. Click here to learn more https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/genetics
Having Dense Breasts
Taking hormones for symptoms of menopause
Please note that avoiding risk factors and increasing protective factors may lower your risk but it does not mean that you will not get cancer. For more, please visit https://www.cancer.gov/types/breast/patient/breast-prevention-pdq
Breast cancer is the second most common kind of cancer in women. The good news is that most women can survive breast cancer if it’s found and treated early. To take your own Breast Cancer Risk Assessment click here https://www.cancer.gov/bcrisktool/
Please see your doctor right away if you find any of the following warning signs:
- Lump or firm feeling in you breast or under your arm
- Nipple changes or discharge
- Skin that is itchy, red, scaled, dimpled or puckered
- Breast that is warm, red, and swollen
Click here for more details https://www.cancer.gov/types/breast/understanding-breast-changes#ui-id-2
Male breast cancer is no joke. Men can also develop breast cancer, making up slightly less than one percent of those diagnosed each year. Radiation exposure, high levels of estrogen, and a family history of breast cancer can increase a man’s risk of the disease. To learn more about the factors that may contribute to causing Male Breast Cancer click here https://www.cancer.gov/types/breast/patient/male-breast-treatment-pdq
National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a chance to raise awareness about the importance of early detection of breast cancer. Make a difference! Spread the word about mammograms and encourage communities, organizations, families, and individuals to get involved. Check out these organizations for more facts and to get involved:

Your first impressions of the Angkor complex may be of ancient temple ruins covered by giant roots of banyan trees; or of many smiling stone-carved Buddha faces, comprising a stone mountain of ascending peaks. Such mysterious ruins in dense jungle often appear in action films.
Such images originate with the well-known Ta Prohm and Bayon temples. Angkor has much to offer, however, besides these two temples. The following are some suggestions for sightseeing after your visit to Angkor Wat.
Angkor Thom was founded in the late 12th century by King Jayavarman VII, considered the most powerful Khmer monarch of all time, and was one of the largest of all Khmer cities. Here lie the ruins of many striking monuments.
Most visitors reach the monuments by driving up to Angkor Thom. Once they've arrived, they stop off to go inside. Although most ruins are in a state of disrepair, the remarkable scale of the architecture and the intricate carvings still reflect the city's glorious past. Of the five gateways into the city, the usual approach is via the South Gate.
The South Gate has been restored extensively, with a causeway flanked by impressive stone statues; benevolent gods on the left and less benevolent asuras on the right. There is a giant serpent in each row, being carried and pulled along by the row's statues. You will notice that some of the statues' heads are missing, as they have been stolen.
The gate itself is a massive archway, with towers decorated by four smiling faces facing in cardinal directions. From here a pathway leads straight to Bayon temple — at the heart of Angkor Thom.
Located right at the heart of Angkor Thom, Bayon is the state temple of King Jayavarman VII, an unusual devotee of Buddhism, who identified himself as a “god-king”. It's a temple with highly religious symbolism, primarily built as a Mahayana Buddhist shrine, dedicated to the Buddha.
The temple's most distinctive feature is its many towers, each bearing four (though sometimes only two or three) huge enigmatic stone faces, gazing out with a smile in cardinal directions. These faces are believed to represent the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara as personified by Jayavarman VII.
The temple features many wonderful bas-reliefs (sculptures in which figures project slightly from the background). These depict scenes from daily life, battles and other historical events. The best-known are at the eastern section of the south gallery, and depict a battle between the Khmers and the Chams, along with other interesting images from everyday life in the 12th century.
How much time you spend viewing the bas-reliefs depends on you. We recommend first-timers to visit the eastern section of the south gallery, and the southern section of the east gallery; together these create a convenient and interesting short detour.
Save most of your time for an exploration of the inner temple's architecture. The complexity of the inner enclosure allows surprising glimpses of the stone faces when you look out from inside. Early morning and late afternoon may be good for photography: the light is such that you may have unusual and unexpected views of the faces.
This terrace, more than 300 meters long, is named after the elephant-carvings on its eastern face. Stretching from the entrance of Bayon to the connecting Leper King Terrace, the Elephant Terrace was built by King Jayavarman VII as a platform from which to inspect the royal army and other parades.
The Elephant Terrace has three main platforms and two smaller ones. The entire terrace is elaborately decorated with life-sized sculptures, such as three elephants with their trunks pulling lotuses from the ground, elephants in a procession with their mahouts, alternating Garuda with raised arms (the mount of Vishnu). Images of lion-headed figures, serpents and horses can also be found on the terrace.
Leper King Terrace
The Leper King Terrace is north of the Elephant Terrace. The name “Leper King” comes from a king who had leprosy. This small platform was built in the late 12th century and probably used for royal cremations. The terrace is marked by two walls, both decorated with powerful carvings, such as seated male figures clasping swords, attendant devatas (deities) and five-headed serpents.
This is the well-known jungle temple that appears in the movie Tomb Raider. Perhaps the most mysterious structure at Angkor, the temple is in a state of disrepair, with trees interlaced among the ruins, helping to create the enigmatic atmosphere.
The temple was built as a Buddhist monastery during the reign of King Jayavarman VII, to transfer merit to the king's mother. Its main deity Prajnaparamita, the personification of wisdom, was carved in her likeness.
The French organization entrusted with restoration has elected to preserve the site in its existing collapsed condition. Much work still needs to be done to prevent further collapse and retain the atmosphere experienced by early explorers. It can be visited at any time of day, but looks particularly peaceful in the early morning.
The remarkable Banteay Srei is located about 20 kilometers north of Angkor. Considered to be the jewel in the crown of Khmer art, the temple was built largely of pink sandstone, with exquisitely detailed carvings depicting Hindu mythology.
Unlike other major monuments in Angkor, Banteay Srei is not a royal temple. It was built by a priest, one of King Rajendravarman's counselors, in the second half of the 10th century. The buildings here are of miniature proportions, meaning that the details of lintels, pediments and roof decorations are easy to see at eye-level, in contrast to most temples where they are too high to view clearly.
The glowing pink sandstone is attractive in itself, let alone the delicate decorations, especially in the early morning and mid-afternoon, providing good photo-shoot opportunities.

( 4.7 Average / 103 Ratings )
I absolutely love how this case looks, it just falls short in a few other areas.
It's kind of hard to work in, the front masks a lot of the backend which makes it look nice but means putting parts in can be a bit challenging, I had to lean the case at an angle and reach my arm though the back to put in a few parts.
I wish there were more alternative mounts for SSDs and HDDs if you want to put a radiator any bigger than 140mm in push/pull you need to sacrifice all of your standard drive bays which limits you to two SSD mounts on the psu shroud which makes for a tight fit if you space out sli GPUs) and one HDD mount which is like to have cables trailing all over it as it's almost right next to the psu, It's also a pain to install as the lip on the side of the case means you need to bend your sata cables at an angle I wasn't the most comfortable doing.
It is simply gorgeous. And the easiness to install all the power cabling is mind boggling. The color combination also matches my two favorite teams: Flamengo (BR) and Barcelona (ES). An alternative would be the R5 Define.
Case is absolute eye candy however design slightly restricts airflow from front 3x 120mm fans.
Love everything about the case, cable management is a breeze :)
Just wow. This case is a must have for any mid tower. The looks are so sexy!
Coolest looking case on the market for around 100 dollars and has several different colors to match any build. highly recommend this to anyone
i love the colours and i must say it was sooo easy with the cable managements
Beautiful, love the front panel, and spacious
This case totally rocks! I love it's simplicity, quality build characteristics and innovation.
Simple- clean lines. PSU cover with compartment for cable management and big window. Flat surfaces on front and side panels for clean aesthetic. Understated vents . Magnetic dust covers. Led light for IO panel. Metal drive trays. Sound dampening foam on inside of panels. pre-installed motherboard standoffs. If you are a novice builder- this is the case for you in terms of a professional and rewarding end-result visually. I just love looking at it.
Gripes: fan hub in back has no voltage regulator, so fans run at full blast unless connected to PWM headers on motherboard. Stock fans are kinda average. No optical drive bay.
Conclusion- Its got way more things going for it than most cases including a distinctive visual appeal, logical case layout and quality build characteristics. A smart buy for the money.
