President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is all but certain to be appointed later, after two key senators said sexual misconduct claims against the judge would not prevent them from backing him.
If Mr Kavanaugh is approved in a final Senate vote – likely to happen from 8.30pm (UK time) on Saturday – Mr Trump will have achieved a victory in his drive to consolidate conservative dominance of the nation’s highest court.

Russia laid out its demands for security guarantees in Brussels to NATO‘s 30 allies on Wednesday but insisted they were not ultimatums following intense talks with the United States in Geneva that failed to break the deadlock, according to Reuters.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg received Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko at allied headquarters to try to defuse the worst East-West tensions since the Cold War over Russia massing troops near its border with Ukraine.
Moscow has dismissed concerns expressed by the United States that it may be planning to invade its neighbour and Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said live-fire exercises on the Ukraine border on Tuesday were not linked to the NATO talks.
“We are not negotiating from a position of strength; there is not, and nor can there be, any place for ultimatums here,” said Peskov in Moscow as the talks were getting underway in Brussels.
NATO allies say the talks, the highest-profile attempt at the alliance to turn a potential conflict over Ukraine into a political process, are taking place because of Russian aggression, not the other way around.
NATO diplomats say the Western alliance would consider it a success if Russia agreed to hold further talks. Allies are ready to negotiate with Moscow on increasing openness around military drills and to avoid accidental clashes that could spark conflict, as well as arms control regarding missiles in Europe.
But the NATO allies say that many of Russia’s demands, laid out in two draft treaties in December, are unacceptable, including calls to scale back the alliance’s activities to 1990s era levels and promising not to take in new members.
Bridling at NATO’s expansion eastward into its old Soviet sphere of influence, the Kremlin sees the U.S.-led alliance’s deterrents and military modernisation as a threat.
Grushko, a former Russian ambassador to NATO, has said Russia wants to avoid confrontation. His direct colleague Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, who held talks with the United States in Geneva but who was not in Brussels on Wednesday has said Ukraine must never be allowed to join NATO.
NATO has no immediate plans to admit Ukraine but says Russia cannot dictate its relations with other sovereign states.
Talks will continue this week in Vienna at the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), a broader body where Russia, the United States and Europeans are represented.

Powerful Walk for Life in San Francisco Draws Huge Crowd
Dustin Siggins : Jan 26, 2016
The message from one speaker was, "Women should never have to buy success with the blood of our babies.
(San Francisco, CA)—Women "should never have to buy success with the blood of our babies," a pro-life Nigerian activist told thousands of attendees at the 12th annual Walk for Life in San Francisco. (Photo via LifeSiteNews.com)
Speaking three thousand miles from where hundreds of pro-life activists were stranded in hotels and on roadsides, Obianuju Ekeocha said, "They tell us the lie that women—in order to have opportunities and in order for us be successful—we must have abortion rights." However, Ekeocha, who founded and runs Culture of Life Africa, stated that "I stand here before you not just as a black person or an African person. I stand here before you as a woman to say we should never have to buy success with the blood of our babies."
Center for Medical Progress founder David Daleiden also spoke, leading the one-hour rally's speakers. "The videos raise the biggest question that Planned Parenthood and their allies cannot answer," he said. "That is how on the one hand in our country the humanity of the baby fetus is not considered to be equal enough to our own in order to be totally protected by law. But at the same time, it is precisely their equal and identical humanity to our own that makes them so..."

Pot Size: 7 Gallons
Current Height: Approx. 4 feet
Height: 12 feet
Spread: 4 feet
Hardiness Zone: 3b
Other Names: Thuja occidentalis 'Smaragd', Emerald Arborvitae
The ubiquitous tall hedge evergreen always seen planted in rows, this is a narrow, upright accent evergreen, dense foliage held in vertical sprays remains bright green year round; hardy and adaptable, takes pruning well, protect from winter sun
Emerald cedar has emerald green foliage. The scale-like leaves remain emerald green throughout the winter.
Emerald cedar is a dense multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with a narrowly upright and columnar growth habit. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage.
This is a relatively low maintenance shrub. When pruning is necessary, it is recommended to only trim back the new growth of the current season, other than to remove any dieback. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Emerald cedar is recommended for the following landscape applications;
- Vertical Accent
- Mass Planting
- General Garden Use
Planting & Growing
Emerald cedar will grow to be about 12 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 4 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front, and is suitable for planting under power lines. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 30 years.
This shrub does best in full sun. It prefers to grow in average to moist conditions, and shouldn't be allowed to dry out. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution, and will benefit from being planted in a relatively sheltered location. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone in winter to protect it in exposed locations or colder microclimates. This is a selection of a native North American species.

In this week’s news highlights: Conflict in Tigray appears to show indications of genocidal tendencies; Journalists present evidence of Eritrean military in the conflict, and damage, looting and humanitarian disaster in Tigray; Violence against Eritrean refugees in Tigray continues; UN calls for full access to Tigray as first assessment missions enter; Children in Sudanese refugee camps face post-traumatic symptoms; ARCI reports the EU continues externalisation of migration policy in Sudan; The NCHRL rejects settling migrants and refugees in Libya; Italian pathologist tries to identify around 1,000 deaths from 2015 shipwreck; The EU calls for action for migrants and refugees in Bosnia; Refugees experience increase in mental health problems at ‘Moria 2:0’ camp; ‘Black book’ exposes thousands of illegal pushbacks in Europe; and at least over 3,000 fatalities on migration routes so far in 2020
On Thursday 26 November, members of the European Parliament held a plenary debate on the current situation in Ethiopia and the conflict in the Horn of Africa region. The speakers called for de-escalation and a resumption of the dialogue for peace between the Ethiopian federal government and representatives of the Tigray region. The discussion followed a draft Joint Motion for a Resolution on 25 November 2020, supported by several parliamentarians from different political parties. The motion was adopted by the European Parliament. European Commissioner for Crisis Management Janez Lenarcic announced plans to visit Sudan to speak to refugees.
News about shipwrecks, returns or disembarkation of boats carrying migrants and refugees across the Mediterranean Sea is reported at least weekly, but more often daily, in international newspapers. This often includes loss of life, adding up to hundreds of people every year. The constant flow of information can numb one to the sheer frequency and numbers of deaths and missing people at sea. In the wake of the new Migration Pact proposed by the European Commission, experts warn that some EU policies may increase the risk for migrants and refugees.

I'd like to experiment with mounting my Canon F/1.4 50 mm lens backwards to experiment with macro photography (on a Rebel Xti).
What kind of gear do I need, and how do I go about it?
You may want a coupling ring ($7). This lets you mount one lens, in reverse, to another lens. This gives you insane macro capabilities, and very little depth of field.
You will find that focusing takes an extremely long time, and you need to set your aperture on your reversed lens first, mounted normally, before flipping it. Not-too-good-example
You will need a Reverse Mount Adapter, here's an example. You mount the adapter to the body, then mount the lens and finally you attach the second part of the adapter to the back of your lens.

If you're in the mood for some EU/book related interviews, then we have you covered with links to a couple good ones this fine Mother's Day.
First, visit our friends at French fan site, Star Wars Universe, for an interview with Continuity Database Administrator for Lucas Licensing, Leland Chee. The interview is posted in French and English. Excerpt below... (Thanks Tagne!)
"I suppose you are a big fan to work on the Star Wars chronology? How did you become the Keeper of the Holocron? How did it happen?
I had been a fan of all things Star Wars since I first saw the movie at age 6. In 1997, on the day the Star Wars Special Edition came out, I got a message on my answering machine that I had been hired for a job as a game tester at LucasArts. Later when I'd heard that LucasArts was working on a Star Wars reference CD-ROM called Behind the Magic, I asked to be the Lead Tester where I hoped to put the 20 years of accumulated Star Wars knowledge I had in my head to good use. After Episode I came out, Lucas Licensing posted an opening looking for someone to create a Star Wars database that could be used to support the new Star Wars roleplaying game being created by Wizards of the Coast. Until that point, Star Wars continuity was being tracked in several large black binders dubbed the Star Wars bible. A month after I started, the Holocron database was up and running and Licensing's bible became obsolete. And the Holocron's just been growing ever since.
What was your reaction when you heard from The Clone Wars for the first time?
We'd covered the Clone Wars extensively in the Expanded Universe through books, comics and games as well as the Genndy Clone Wars micro-series, so admittedly, I was a bit apprehensive at first. Was there anything left to tell? But the scripts got better and by the time I got the Malevolence story arc, I was thinking this could be very cool."
Then, visit the good people over at NJEO.com for their interview with Essential Atlas writer (among many others), Daniel Wallace. Excerpt below...
Which of those universes that you write in is the most fun to work with?
I?ve written for Star Wars, DC Comics, Marvel Comics, Indiana Jones, Superman Returns, and Smallville. Star Wars is of course the closest to my heart. It?s my first love. I am a Star Wars freak and could destroy you in trivia. After that, however, I do love my comic book universes. DC Comics is particularly fun because I like the legacy aspect of the characters, since DC heroes have been in continuous publication since the 1930s and there?s still such a key role played by World War II characters like the original Flash and the original Green Lantern. For the most part Marvel and DC have the same problem as Star Wars in trying to fit everything together into one cohesive narrative. Both of them ?cheat? a little, DC with reality-altering Crisis events and Marvel with deals with the Devil. Because the rules that govern those universes are looser they?re allowed to get away with selective wipes.
When you work on something like the Encyclopedia do you have full access to the Holocron, even the super-duper-secret stuff? And do Marvel and DC also use something similar to manage canon in their respective universes?
I?ll tell you something about the Holocron ? Wookieepedia has it beat in terms of sheer volume. The Holocron began way, way pre-Wiki and is a database formatted for Filemaker Pro. The appeal of the Holocron isn?t that it has the most information, but that it represents Lucasfilm?s official stance (every fact in the Holocron is essentially pre-approved) and that it has some interesting behind-the-scenes notes taken from conversations with George Lucas. But it?s not friendly for casual browsing.
The Holocron was hugely useful in putting together the Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia because it provided a good guide for which entries were important and should be included, and which entries were pretty slight and could be safely dropped.
DC and Marvel don?t have equivalent databases. For the work I?ve done in those universes, you?re basically just expected to know your stuff."

THE BEASTIE BOYS - A BEGINNER'S GUIDE
The Compilation: the 2 CD set Sounds Of Science has almost all of their modes: hardcore punk, their days as a Run-D.M.C. style Def Jam group, the Paul's Boutique era, their hard rock stuff, instrumental funk and even their country phase (which was very brief). It has hits, album tracks and rare stuff too. And great liner notes by the band. If that's too much for you, go for the single CD Solid Gold Hits.
The Classic Album(s): They had a lot of game changers. First, their debut full length, 1986's Licensed To Ill on Def Jam. It has lots of douchey anthems like "Fight For Your Right" and "Brass Monkey," but on the other hand, it was pretty groundbreaking and has lots of amazing tracks. They completely flipped the script and risked everything by leaving Def Jam, Rush Management and producer Rick Rubin for L.A., Capitol Records and The Dust Brothers for 1989's Paul's Boutique. At the album tanked at the time. Now: it is considered a classic. After that, they picked up their instruments again for another classic, 1992's Check Your Head. This sort of mapped out the rest of their career, which they'd split between straight up hip-hop, hard rock tunes with Adam Horowitz on the mic, hard core punk tunes with Mike D shouting, and instrumental funk jams.
After that, they still released great albums but nothing as groundbreaking. Still, 1994's Ill Communication is amazing, 1998's Hello Nasty is great. I think 2004's To The 5 Boroughs is totally underrated, and ditto for this year's Hot Sauce Committee Part 2. I also dig their instrumental album, 2007's The Mix-Up. And, although they weren't at their best as a hardcore band, the 1994 compilation Some Old Bullshit is still solid, plus it has their legendary prank call "Cookie Puss."


The state House overwhelming approve its 2019-21 transportation budget on Mar. 29 that spends $10 billion on fish culvert repairs, the Interstate 5 Bridge replacement and other transportation projects throughout the state. Prior to its passage on the House floor in a 90-5 vote, lawmakers touted the bipartisan approach taken while crafting it, along with the absence of any new revenue streams to finance it.
“We got the work of the people done without raising taxes, period,” Rep. Jesse Young (R-26) said.
ESHB 1160, sponsored by House Transportation Chair Jake Fey (D-27), spends $600 million more than the 2017-19 transportation budget, with the 2018 supplemental included. Of the $10 billion, $3.1 billion would go toward the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Highway Improvements program.
Appropriations for the 2019-21 biennium include:
- $51 million toward widening parts of the State Route 18 corridor used heavily by truckers en route from Snoqualmie Pass to the ports;
- $8.75 million toward the Interstate 5 Bridge between Vancouver and Portland;
- $112 million toward state Route 520 corridor improvements between Seattle and Redmond;
- $385.63 million toward Interstate 405 corridor improvements between Lynnwood and Tukwila; and
- $384.4 million toward I-405 corridor widening between Bellevue and Renton.
Other funding provisions include replacing some of the state’s ferry system fleet and $214 million for replacing fish culverts that impede salmon passage to habitat. A court injunction requires the state to replace hundreds of the culverts located on Washington State Department of Transportation land by 2030. The budget also continues the road usage charge (RUC) steering committee and further study of a regional ultra high-speed rail line.
Prior to the House floor vote, Fey said that the state’s beautiful geographical landscapes are “wonderful features of Washington, but they’re a challenge for the transportation system. That’s why we have a ferry system. Building roads across mountains doesn’t come cheaply, because we want them to be as safe as possible; we also want them to be able to fuel our economic development in the state.”
He added that “it was a little bit tougher for state agencies, because we really got into the specifics of the request, and they didn’t get all that they asked for.”
Despite opposition on some aspects of the budget, Rep. Ed Orcutt (R-20) said “when I look at the overall budget, I think the good outweighs the bad and the concerns that I have in it.”
The Senate transportation budget proposal cleared the Transportation Committee on Mar. 28 and has been referred to the Rules Committee for a second reading. ESHB 1160 has been referred to the Senate, but not yet assigned to a committee.


text: The brain serotonergic system has an essential role in the physiological functions of the central nervous system and dysregulation of serotonin (5-HT) homeostasis has been implicated in many neuropsychiatric disorders. The tryptophan hydroxylase-2 (TPH2) gene is the rate-limiting enzyme in brain 5-HT synthesis, and thus is an ideal candidate gene for understanding the role of dysregulation of brain serotonergic homeostasis. Here, we characterized a common, but functional single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP rs1386493) in the TPH2 gene, which decreases efficiency of normal RNA splicing, resulting in a truncated TPH2 protein (TPH2-TR) by alternative splicing. TPH2-TR, which lacks TPH2 enzyme activity, dominant-negatively affects full-length TPH2 function, causing reduced 5-HT production. The predicted mRNA for TPH2-TR is present in postmortem brain of rs1386493 carriers. The rs13864923 variant does not appear to be overrepresented in either global or multiplex depression cohorts. However, in combination with other gene variants linked to 5-HT homeostasis, this variant may exhibit important epistatic influences.

Many men choose to undergo a facelift to improve deep folds and sagging skin of the face, as well as jowling. When performed by an experienced and skilled plastic surgeon such as Dr. Rian Maercks, the outcome of a facelift is a more attractive and youthful appearance that looks natural and refreshed.
Facelift or Aesthetic Facial Balancing?
Sometimes patients come to Dr. Maercks believing they need a surgical facelift when in reality their goals can be accomplished non-surgically. At The Maercks Institute, a specialized treatment called Aesthetic Facial Balancing is often utilized to deliver a naturally lifted appearance without the need for surgery. This is a highly customized, quick treatment that uses cosmetic injectables to achieve remarkable results. During your consultation with Dr. Maercks, he will assess your face, neck, skin, and goals to determine whether a surgical facelift is your best option or not.

Thomas Tuchel heaped praised on his Paris Saint-Germain side after they cruised into their first ever Champions League final.
As players partied in Lisbon, thousands of PSG fans took to the streets of Paris to celebrate the team's historic achievement.
"Incredible, that's why we're here to play in the final and to win," Tuchel told French broadcaster RMC.
"We showed our quality, our hunger, determination. A good mix which showed we deserved the win.
"The team showed once again the hunger two win, to play together, to suffer. They made the most of it."
PSG's easy 3-0 win over RB Leipzig at the Estadio da Luz in Lisbon, with goals from
Marquinhos, Angel Di Maria and Juan Bernat, showed all the composure on a big European occasion that they have lacked in recent seasons.
Tuchel's outfit have set up a meeting with either on-fire Bayern Munich or fellow French side Lyon in Sunday's final.
"I felt the pressure before the game, it wasn't easy, I have players who love the pressure of key matches I'm never relaxed," said Tuchel.
"We know well that Bayern are the favourites, it will be difficult against Lyon, but we'll see. It's obviously the biggest challenge of my career."
Fans set off flares and fireworks as they celebrated their team's achievement.
Supporters linked arms and chanted in close-knit groups, though few in the crowd wore face masks despite a recent sharp rise in Covid-19 infections in France.
Large crowds also gathered outside the French champions' Parc des Princes stadium, while Parisians lined up in and outside bars to watch the game.

"I bought this set because I thought that it was cheap and worth the shot to buy it. It is pretty okay, especially if you only focus on the first set. The second version (the catamaran, I think) is definitely just bad. I love the smaller Technics because you have the option to rebuild them, but this is just not worth it. The second is practically the racing yacht except that the rudders are different. The sails and the structure (except maybe the hull) are not changed at all. I am very disappointed about the creators' imagination of the second set. That being said, it is still a pretty awesome set. It looks great, the way the steering works is awesome, the rubber bands slip very slightly but I think it doesn't matter, and the way the wheel is floppy is totally normal and realistic. In a racing yacht, the boat, to steer most efficiently, needs to have total leaning ability. That is why the wheel bounces back and forth: to move the center of gravity. The sails look awesome, but the front one is too flimsy. It tends to lean towards one side, because it is not well attached to the pole. It is pretty cool how the yacht (and catamaran) lean to the left or right, and how you can turn the main sail. Overall, that is what one might expect from a cheaper set, excepting the fact of the poor invention of the second set."
"This little set is really worth it, and if you're not willing to spend much on Legos, this is the set for you. The functionality is very good, with the playability being excellent. The one downside of this set is that it doesn't have steering like most Lego Technics, but it is still pretty awesome. The 2nd set looks pretty great too."
"This is a very cool set, with the awesome orange color, and the fantastic engine and the tiny pistons. These pistons were on the Mack Anthem though already. It is quite nice that the steering control is at the back, giving it a nice twist, plus the awkwardness of it being on top is gone. There are plenty unique pieces for a $50 set. The behind is quite weird, though, since it is kind of two squarish without curves. It's somewhat sad that there are only two features in this car, the engine and the steering; I wish there were opening doors and an adjustable spoiler or something. But those are the only cons; everything else looks super cool and awesome, and it is quite great that a brand name car is available at such a low price! I'd definitely buy it if I were you!"
"This car looks awesome! There are several unique pieces, and the stickers are pretty great. I love the orange on the gray scheme. The only downside is that this set doesn't have a good thing to come along with it, and this wind tunnel thing doesn't work too well."

Alcatraz - Vampire State Building (1971) @ 320 kbps
Vampire State Building is a killer release from 70's Germany underground. The band delivers a bunch of bombastic, extremely freaked out fuzzy improvisations including jazzy tendencies. Simple Headphone Mind opens the album with a surprising hippie like groovy jazz variation that features powerful piano bases, enchanting flute line and a very catchy rhythm. The break session provides endless screaming fuzzy guitar solos accompanied by a very jazzy instrumentation. Tour chance of a Lifetime is a heartbreaking, cloudy compositions for dense, spacious melodies with beautifully dramatic vocals. Where the wild things are is an hyperactive freak 'n roll piece with killer riffs, mysteriously atmospheric jazz fusion links. Piss off is a bizarre, curious, fuzzy & druggy jam making a large part to atonal guitar / sax dialogues. Change will come is a retro jazz rockin' piece including a nice groove and agitated stoned vocals. Dirty, Heavy druggy psychedelica. An important musical document.

Need more flavor in your life? Wake your dried herbs up with a little rub!
I’m sure I’m not the only one who would love an herb garden (and veggie plot, and fruit trees, and for my backyard in general to always be filled with food). Fresh herbs are great, but sometimes that dried stuff out of the bottle is a whole lot easier to get your hands on. So the big question is, where’s the flavor?
Bringing life back to the dried herbs going into your next recipe is simple. Instead of sprinkling them straight into the pot, rub your ingredients between your fingers to break them up. This helps to release oil left in the leaves, bringing out another dose of flavor.
What’s the best healthful tip your mom or dad taught you in the kitchen?

|The fires of hell wouldn't have doused our rain|
Boy, have we had some rain the last couple of days. Fortunately the biggest storm – hail, winds, rain, flooding – came while we were sitting in the pub. By the time we headed back to the boat, the skies had more or less cleared though our heads were a tad fuzzy.
Short of walking training for our up-coming Pennine Way foray, I spotted a local hill and decided we should walk up it. It wasn't hard to spot, the canal from Windmill End winds around the base of the steep Netherton Hill. As an aside, it really is remarkable how bumpy this part of the Black Country is; you're up and down hills everywhere.
|Netherton Hill with St Andrew's at the top|
|One of the fine towpath local history panels|
|The Gothic Victorian ruins of St Andrew's churchyard|
|And the Delph from below with the old route to its right|
(Incidentally, the Delph was once nine locks rather than eight before the main lock flight was rebuilt with one less lock. Hence the bridge at the top is 'Nine Locks Bridge' and the pub at the bottom 'The Ten Locks') You can see the track of the old locks in the undergrowth to the side of the flight.
We got through the Delph in the sun, then the sky blackened and the rain cascaded. On with the waterproofs and up with the umbrella and we carried on through a mix of scruffy industry and pleasing country (but always with too much floating rubbish) to reach the 16 locks of the Stourbridge flight in sunshine again.And the sun held on until half way down when the heavens opened. I struggled into my waterproofs – and immediately the rain stopped. It's a nice flight, with its familiar view down the locks past Dadford Shed and the glassworks cone. From the lockwheeler's view, though, I have to say it's probably the most dog mess strewn that I've had to tiptoe through in years. Horrible.
Today we are, yet again, moored in Stourbridge. And the sun is shining – for the moment.

When Sunday dawned, the New England Patriots were sporting a 10-2 record and one of the two AFC first-round playoff berths.
In essence, it was shaping up to be what has become a typical season for the Patriots in the last decade-plus.
But on Sunday, just before 6 p.m. ET, as New England’s players and coaches jogged off the Gillette Stadium field at halftime of their game with the Kansas City Chiefs trailing 20-7, the 68,000 supposedly diehard Patriots fans in attendance showered them with boos.
Let’s repeat that: As the 10-2 New England Patriots, coached by the greatest coach the NFL has ever seen and quarterbacked by the greatest quarterback the NFL has ever seen, fueled this year by a defense that had allowed only 145 points in 12 games was booed off the field.
Are we serious?
No one is more aware than Belichick and Patriots players that something is off right now. They have lost two of their past four games, but their first loss of the season was to the Baltimore Ravens, on the road. Last week on the road against the Houston Texans? Not their best game.
But the best team in the NFL this millennium? Not the last five years, not even the last decade. The last time the Patriots weren’t great we were all still laughing at ourselves because the trumped-up apocalypse known as Y2K never came to pass.
The Patriots are the reigning Super Bowl champions.
They’ve been to three consecutive Super Bowls and four of the past five, winning three of them.
They’ve been to eight —eight! — straight AFC championship games.
With their win against Dallas last month, they sewed up their 17th consecutive season with 10 wins. Do you know what the next longest active streak is? Four seasons, by Kansas City. Four.
There are kids in New England who are juniors or seniors in high school who have never experienced a .500 season or even experienced a three-game losing streak.
Some of us are old enough to remember when the Patriots were called the “Patsies,” the perennial also-rans that listed a snowplow driven by a man on work-release from the local prison and “Squish the Fish” as franchise highlights for decades. Some of us are old enough to have vivid memories of Super Bowl XX when New England was laughed off the field by the Chicago Bears.
This might not be New England’s year. Tom Brady might finally be showing signs of age, but he’s 42. He’s still put up the best season the NFL has ever seen from a 42-year-old quarterback.
Speaking of Brady, did the fans at Gillette (no, not all 68,000 fans were booing) also forget that no one in league history has more game-winning drives than Brady? He has 44. Maybe Sunday night he’ll get 45.
Even CBS’ broadcast team, Tony Romo and Jim Nantz, were incredulous when they heard booing. Other fanbases should rightfully roll their eyes — what they would give to have a team half as successful as New England has been since 2001!
One day, at this point likely sooner than anyone wants to admit, it’s going to be over. Brady won’t be in a Patriots uniform, the 10-win seasons won’t be a foregone conclusion and conference championship games won’t feel like an annual rite.
Be frustrated, of course, but booing? You can’t be serious.

Two street names have been changed in downtown McDonough after a few months of deliberation. The City Council voted at its Aug. 15 regular meeting to rename two streets along the one-way pairs running through the square.
The section known as Jonesboro Street/Keys Ferry Street will become Mary Childs Street, and what has been known as Geranium Street will become Hattie Barnes Street.
The renaming was deemed necessary because of conflicting names, and the council chose these names in honor of women who had served as midwives in the community in past years. The matter was brought up a few months ago and delayed until public input could be solicited.
The vote was unanimous.

Music videos are tricky things, especially in the EDM sphere. For songs usually without lyrics, artists are usually relegated to odd combinations of visualizers or a thrown-together plot line. Obviously, the addition of lyrics and an inherent meaning to a song will help in these endeavors.
The music video for “Heartlines” by EMBRZ is a brilliant example of artistic and musical creativity combining for an otherworldly experience. First and foremost, the track isn’t totally “EDM” – it’s not something you’d hear on the main stage of a festival. The video, in a way, reflects this. It represents a series of quaint and disarming scenes following along with the lyrics, showing the story of two separate worlds connected by the oddest of circumstances: sewer grates.
One world is beautiful but lonely, the other is bustling with commotion, but otherwise unfulfilling. In the video, the two worlds never officially merge, though the video is “to be continued.”
We’re excited to see the continuation of this story in the future. For now, check out “Heartlines” featuring Meadowlark below, via Ultra Music.
With the release of this video, EMBRZ also announces his debut EP Progress, out July 7 via Ultra Music.
“When I was writing music my dad would always ask me ‘Are you making progress?’ – Which is where I got both the name and concept from. I like the idea of ‘progress’. Progress is never a finished destination, it’s always about constantly improving, experimenting and exploring new ideas. Which is kinda my philosophy when it comes to music production. My goal for this EP was to put together a collection of tracks that varied in style as I’ve always been a fan of multiple genres.”

Ratings agencies acted irresponsibly and ought to be held accountable. This situation requires extreme changes to regulatory policy as these companies will exploit every opportunity they get. They love risk that they can pass along to others.
Of coarse they back track...besides congress, now a 3 trillion dollar buyer of rated securities may soon say moodys is now irrelevant. If congress says they are irrelevant and the insurers follow suit...then who is left, and of those left who will actually follow them? their ratings have been "vomit" that have cost extremely risk adverse individuals/companies that rely on the raters ratings as a standard, but instead have resulted in incredible losses--AAA paper has to be held to the standard of US treasuries! They get paid short of nuclear holocaust. Buyers of AAA paper DO NOT buy BB paper, many times they are not allowed; but this is exactly what they peddled, BBB CCC defaulted junk as AAA...opinion? IMO if they could not see it they are incompetent and have no right to be a preferred rater or even in business; if they did know the paper was less then AAA then it is fraud

The Trayvon Martin shooting death case won't go to a Florida grand jury, the special prosecutor appointed to handle the investigation said Monday.
State Attorney Angela Corey said she continues to investigate the case and will not involve a grand jury that was previously set to meet on Tuesday.
That means the decision on whether to file charges against George Zimmerman rests with her, the AP reported.
Corey said her decision shouldn't be considered an indicator on whether charges would eventually brought against Zimmerman, NBC Miami reported.
Martin, 17, was unarmed when shot dead by Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer, Feb. 26 in Sanford. Zimmerman maintains he was acting in self-defense.

Our boy Cris Cab just keeps getting better and better. His unique sound has propelled him to work with names like Big Sean, Wyclef Jean, Mike Posner and of course his mentor Pharrell. His third album ‘Red Road’ is 9 tracks of greatness. Cris has that soulfulness in his voice of a John Mayer or Jason Mraz that makes you stop and really appreciate the singers’ voice. He’s a ladies man in the making and will just need that one hit song to blow up and stay there.
Our latest artist feature is on REED, a Philadelphia-based electro R&B DJ/vocalist. His songs are a tremendous blend of vocals and beats, but with a unique unison because he’s creating originals of both. Plus he writes the lyrics, thus presenting a completely organic creation. REED started releasing original songs and covers in May 2012 and a few months later linked up with a couple producers who helped him rework his two demos, “Basis” and “AA.” (Both songs can be found in the SoundCloud players in this post) After reworking the two tracks, he submitted them to Chicago radio station 103.5 KISS FM. The station liked what they heard and decided to interview him this Friday, April 19th at 9pm CST on the Special K Radio Show. If you get a chance, tune in and learn more about this talented amateur musician while he’s live on air. For now, REED is working on his summer album with another producer–an album we’ll be waiting for.
This is Collin McLoughlin’s cover for Justin Timberlake’s “Mirrors.” The track was recorded, reproduced, arranged and mixed by Collin McLoughlin in his NYC apartment. The video was shot and edited / directed by John Kilmer.
When we saw our favorite new JT track being covered by our boy Collin we were ecstatic and expecting huge things. While it’s still a great cover, it seems like Collin was just off on a few notes throughout the song and couldn’t take the cover to the next level like he always does. I guess it ain’t easy being JT!
Our favorite voice (even though he’s not America’s) is coming off his Webster Hall performance in NYC with another signature McLoughlin cover. This time he takes Rihanna’s latest emotion-filled track and actually adds some new elements to it rather than stripping it down like he usually does. We weren’t a fan of Rihanna’s, but Collin nailed it as always. The cover was reproduced, rearranged, recorded, mixed and sung by Collin McLoughlin in his apartment in NYC.

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.
Overpopulation of urban areas has led to numerous problems.
Identify one or two serious ones and suggest ways that governments and individuals can tackle these problems.
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Write at least 250 words.
Many urban centres are affected by the problem of over-swelling of population. Two of its bitter issues along with some ways to solve these are outlined in the ensuing paragraphs.
The two worst problems which can stem from this are social and economic imbalances among the city-dwellers. Turning to the social crises, the first is the increasing demands. For instance, an excessive hike in the population automatically raises the demand for food, water, living space, education, health, sanitation and transport. The authorities might not be always able to avail these facilities in satisfying levels to their population, which results in social unrest. Turning to the economic crises, the worst is the problem of increasing competition to find a secure job. Many would stay unemployed even after years of completion of their studies. This would diminish the demand of workers, and they would be forced to work for lower wages.
When assessing the ways what governments can do to tackle the issue, the best is proper town-planning. For instance, both the aforementioned problems are seen in higher intensities where the cities are not planned. Governments should have a better vision for the future population, and not just for the existing ones.
Individuals, on the other hand can also play their own role in mitigating the issue. Couples can restrict the number of childbirths in highly-populated cities. Parents can help children in moulding their career-perspectives into less competitive fields. For example, it is difficult to succeed in the job-market when there are more engineers and fewer drivers. Multiple job training is essential these days to ease the pressure.
To conclude, the serious concerns which are expected in every city with an uncontrolled population are basically social and economic. However, provided that both governments and individuals do their responsibilities in a proper way, these crises can be mitigated.

I am currently waiting at the airport to board my flight with a backpack that's practically bigger than I am. My totally travel time to get to Singapore is roughly 28 hours so naturally I downloaded 28 books onto my ereader. That includes the five Game of Thrones books so I can't imagine I will finish all 28 in the six weeks I'm gone. I'm getting really excited now that I'm at the airport and it all finally seems real! Because of the travel time and the time difference I'm not arriving in Singapore until May 7th! It's crazy, I feel like I'm traveling in time! Anyway I am boarding now so I will post again when I have arrived in (hopefully) sunny Singapore!

When it comes to Governor Stitt
keeping himself comfortable,

Just weeks into the new job Governor Stitt pushed to spend millions to upgrade his mansion, spending two million dollars in taxpayer money, instead of raising private funds.
He bought a $36,000 dollar rug for the foyer, a food warmer for $6,500, spent $8,000 on another rug – this time for the family room, and $2,200 on a fridge just to keep his wine cool.

Only a few days have passed between the American announcement of its change in policy concerning the fate of the Assad regime in Syria: "Our priority is no longer to sit there and focus on getting Assad out," as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said last week; and the use by the Syrian regime made of chemical weapons on Tuesday morning in a bloody attack that killed dozens in the city of Idlib in northwest Syria.
- Assad Sends an Explosive Message to Israel
- Hospital Treating Victims of Syria Gas Attack Bombed; Scores Killed
- Israel Won't Allow Chemical Weapons to Reach Hezbollah, Defense Minister Says
- On Assad's WMD Use and Iran Deal
The attack itself may have been a bit unusual in its characteristics, but not in its results. Almost every week the Assad regime butchers hundreds of people using supposedly "legitimate" means, such as artillery bombardments and incendiary barrel bombs dropped from planes and helicopters.
Haley's statements, combined with previous signals from the Trump administration, certainly contributed to the Assad regime's self-confidence, which in any case has been gaining momentum since the completion of the conquest of Aleppo at the end of December. But the massacre in Idlib stills points to a failure of the Obama administration. In July 2013, after Assad killed over 1,000 civilians in a poison gas attack on a suburb of Damascus under rebel control, Obama announced Assad had crossed a red line and promised a punishing attack against the regime.
Soon after Obama changed his mind, did his U-turn and reached an agreement with Russia on dismantling Assad's chemical weapons stores, in which about 1,000 tons of chemical weapons were destroyed. It was not just an about-face, but a full retreat because with this move the United States signaled that it had no intention of taking a risk in Syria, and in doing so paved the way for even larger involvement of other forces, with Russia at their head.
Tuesday morning's attack, in which it seems Sarin nerve gas was used, shows that the agreement to remove the chemical weapons was not carried out in full. Western intelligence organizations, including the Israeli intelligence community, have estimated in the past that between 95 percent to 99 percent of Syria's chemical weapons stocks were removed from the country and neutralized. But the use of chemical weapons continues to be rather common: Every once in a while the regime uses "standard" chemical weapons, but more often it uses materials that are not banned explicitly by international accords, such as chlorine, while at the same time reports have been appearing on similar chemical attacks carried out by the rebels.
In the summer of 2014, with the drop in the threat of a chemical weapons attack on Israel, the cabinet decided to stop the distribution of gas masks for civilians. This was taking a calculated risk, which was the result of budgetary constraints and a desire to transfer the resources used for the annual refurbishment of the gas masks and protection kits (hundreds of millions of shekels every year) for other purposes. But the latest attack on Idlib could put these questions concerning Israel's policy for protection against chemical weapons back on the agenda.
Other major questions concern Russia's part in reaching decisions related to the chemical weapons attack. Moscow has provided full backing to Assad for all his actions, and has led the murderous aerial attacks that tilted the balance in the Syrian campaign in favor of the regime, and led to the defeat of the rebels in Aleppo and other cities. Were the Russians in on the secret of Assad's thinking when he decided once again to use chemical weapons?
In 2013, Moscow proposed the arrangements for the dismantling of Syria's chemical weapons in order to save Assad from Washington's fury, and the compromise reached did take the American punishment attacks off the table. But the Russians have continued since then to take a lenient line as to all of their vassal's bloody acts, including the use of chemical weapons.
In the past, when Islamic terrorists took control of a theater in Moscow and held hundreds of hostages in 2002, the Russian commando forces used an unknown gas during their attempt to free the hostages, during which dozens of the hostages were killed, it seems mostly from the gas the rescuers filled the hall with.
In recent months, the interest of the international community in Syria has fallen a bit, because of the political drama in the United States and a partial stabilization of Assad's government. But in practice, the fighting and massacres have continued, even if at a slower pace than in the past. As far as Israel is concerned, this provides two lessons: The first, that even international agreements guaranteeing the dismantlement of weapons of mass destruction must be taken with a grain of salt, and cannot be relied on completely. The second, that the improving relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin and the day-to-day channel for coordination with Moscow do not grant Israel immunity from the implications of the events in Syria.
In the long run, the military and diplomatic support Moscow has been providing for the Assad regime includes potential harm for Israel because behind the back of the Syrian dictator hide Iran and Hezbollah. His continued success, with Russian aid, could lead to further problematic steps from Israel's point of view, and most important, the presence of Hezbollah forces and Iranian Revolutionary Guards along the Israeli border with Syria on the Golan Heights.
