This is an illustration I created for the cover of a shopping guide to Germany published by Global Blue. It was commissioned for their Autumn/Winter 2012/13 edition of SHOP magazine Germany. SHOP is primarily a city guide but also a luxury fashion magazine, the issues are by city or country (SHOP Oslo, SHOP Germany etc.). All of the covers are illustrated, based on a feature from the inside of the magazine. Global Blue works closely with design studio Design by St on these. You can see some of the Spring/Summer editions here.
The editor wanted an illustration based on a feature about German hats past and present - "we are looking for something elegant, striking and a bit abstract not focusing on a specific brand necessarily, and can be very extravagant".
Scroll down for some sketches and a reference image:
ORIGINAL IMAGE (before cropping):
THE ACTUAL HARD COPY (and me in the contributors section):


Implemented a single instance mode using a hard-coded named mutex.
In case another instance is run it opens a new tab in the single instance and exits. The new tab is either the Current working directory of the newly run instance or a tab defined using the command line arguments ( -t, -d, -r ).
In order to communicate, the new instance sends a WM_COPYDATA win32 message to a window with title == "Console". The message contains the tab name, command and directory.
The message is handled in MainFrame::OnCopyData which calls CreateNewConsole with the appropriate arguments.
The patch includes a rather quick and dirty hack of the above, together with some header files necessary to build the project ( I've spent a considerable amount of time trying to build it :/ ).
I'm really sorry I didn't have time to make this thing more robust and clean.
I have tested it and it seems to work on my rig pretty well.
Haven't tested any side effects it might have on other features, but I really doubt there should be any.

Regulating Emergency Granulopoiesis
Normally, neutrophil pools are maintained by "steady-state" granulopoiesis. Infections and inflammation, however, trigger neutrophilias that are supported by a hematopoietic program of accelerated granulopoiesis known as "emergency" granulopoiesis. Steady-state and emergency granulopoiesis are thought to depend on distinct members of the CCAAT enhancer binding protein (C/EBP) family of transcription factors, yet the extracellular cues that determine these developmental pathways are unclear. I hypothesize that inflammation elicits IL-1 which acts directly on hematopoietic progenitor cells for the induction of emergency granulopoiesis. Indeed, IL-1RI<super>-/-</super> mice fail to mount reactive neutrophilias in response to adjuvant-induced inflammation. Analysis of this specific impairment revealed an unanticipated role for IL-1RI in supporting increased proliferation by granulocyte/macrophage progenitors (GMP) and, surprisingly, more primitive multipotent progenitors (MPP) and hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). Whereas IL-1 drives HSC proliferation directly <italic>in vitro</italic>, inflammation induces comparable rates of proliferation in IL-1RI deficient and -sufficient HSC, MPP, and GMP in mixed chimeric mice. Thus, IL-1RI signals play a necessary, but indirect role in the support of alum-induced neutrophilias by expanding both pluripotent and myeloid progenitor compartments to accelerate granulopoiesis.
The lack of alum-induced neutrophilia in IL-1RI<super>-/-</super> mice is due to defective mobilization of bone marrow (BM) neutrophils and impaired proliferation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). Coincident defects in neutrophil mobilization and HSPC proliferation suggest that the trigger for emergency granulopoiesis might be the exhaustion of neutrophil compartments rather than inflammatory inductions of growth factors. Consistent with this hypothesis, non-inflammatory reductions in BM neutrophil numbers elicit granulopoietic responses similar to those induced by adjuvant. Alum mobilizes BM neutrophils via G-CSF, but increased HSPC proliferation results from a density-dependent mechanism that is only partially dependent on G-CSF. Notably, C/EBPβ, thought to be necessary for enhanced generative capacity of BM, is dispensable for increased proliferation of HSPC, but plays a role in the terminal differentiation of neutrophils. These observations indicate that the draining of BM neutrophil pools is sufficient to activate a latent, homeostatic mechanism of accelerated granulopoiesis. I propose a common model for the regulation of neutrophil production that explains both steady-state and emergency granulopoiesis through negative feedback.

Establishing whether past millennial-scale climate change affected the stability of marine methane hydrate is important for our understanding of climatic change and determining the fate of marine hydrates in a future warmer world. We show, using three-dimensional seismic data offshore of Mauritania, that episodic, millennial-scale shifts of the base of the hydrate stability zone can be imaged below the ocean floor. Process modeling suggests that the base of the hydrate stability zone should have shallowed and deepened in response to climate change over the past ∼150,000 yr. Specifically, there is seismic evidence for millennial-scale shifts during the Holocene (∼11,700 yr ago to present) at a temporal resolution that has previously been unrealized. This is the first evidence that millennial-scale climatic cycles caused hydrate formation and dissociation and that hydrate instability should be expected in a warming world.


Gun Club 82 faces almost $500,000 in liens from subcontractors
Multiple subcontractors say they are owed a total of nearly $500,000 for their work on Gun Club 82, a shooting range, bar and restaurant venue expected to open this fall in Gilbert.
At least 11 companies have filed liens since April against some combination of Caliber Club LLC, managing director Rod Ghani or general contractor Arizona Wrangler Construction.
The largest lien is from Arizona Glass Specialists, which claimed it was owed $117,900 for work on windows and doors.
Gary Stevenson, the owner of Arizona Glass Specialists, said his situation boils down to a misunderstanding. The company expected to be paid by the general contractor, but Ghani had been writing the checks instead, he said.
Stevenson said Ghani told him that he wasn't going to pay until all the work on the building was completed, while companies are usually paid over the course of construction.
After filing the lien with the Maricopa County Recorder's Office, Stevenson said Arizona Glass was paid most of what it's owed.
"As far as we're in standing with Rod, he's paid us, we're good," Stevenson said.
He attributed the lack of payment to a misunderstanding, but said, "it's been a weird situation."
Ghani had a different version of events.
Ghani said Arizona Wrangler was given the funds and was responsible for paying the subcontractors. He said some of the disputes emerged from work he considered incomplete or incorrectly done, and he is asking certain companies to fix errors. Ghani blamed the general contractor for allowing this.
"We don't want shortcuts, we don't want issues, so we're working through those," he said.
Because Gun Club 82 does not have a direct relationship with the subcontractors, they're limited in being able to solve the issue, Ghani said. He said the company's attorneys are working through the disputes on a case-by-case basis.
A representative with Arizona Wrangler did not respond to The Arizona Republic's request for comment, saying he wanted to comment but that he needed to work through his attorney.
The gun club that generated questions over how it would navigate mixing alcohol and guns is still expected to open at the end of September or early October, Ghani said.
The club's chief development officer, Mark Johnson, has said patrons will not be able to shoot if they — or anyone in their group — have purchased alcohol in the venue's restaurant or rooftop lounge. There will be physical barriers, as well as electronic ones, he said.

Pelosi de-links Biden economic agenda, making the fate of tax increases unclear - Jay Heflin, Eide Bailly.
Speaker Pelosi told reporters on Monday night that there isn’t enough time to continue to put a hold on passing the infrastructure bill while working out the kinks involved with the reconciliation bill. Funding for highway and transit programs expires on September 30th. The infrastructure bill would extend funding for these programs, which is why the vote is scheduled for the day the funding expires.
If the infrastructure bill passes the House and is signed into law, the likelihood that both chambers will pass the budget reconciliation bill becomes less clear.
Pelosi says Biden's infrastructure bill can't wait for social safety net bill - Sahil Kapur, NBC:
Progressive House Democrats have threatened to vote down the infrastructure bill if the vote is held Thursday before the mega-bill is completed, fearing that centrist Democrats would seek to shrink or kill the larger bill if the bipartisan infrastructure measure passes.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., head of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, stuck by that position Monday evening after the meeting, saying House progressives are prepared to vote down the infrastructure bill Thursday.
Decision Week for Infrastructure Arrives - Haley Byrd Wilt, Ryan Brown, and Harvest Prude, The Dispatch ($). "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is preparing to bring forward a bipartisan infrastructure package for floor consideration on Thursday, over the angst of progressives who fear it will undermine the odds of passing President Joe Biden’s not-yet-complete $3.5 trillion social investments bill... In an op-ed earlier on Monday, Jayapal, along with Reps. Ilhan Omar and Katie Porter, wrote that they 'remain committed to voting for the infrastructure bill only after the Build Back Better Act is passed.'"
House Democrats look for a sign from the Senate on budget bill - Jessica Wehrman and Lindsey McPherson, Roll Call:
House Democrats emerged from a caucus meeting Monday night without a clear strategy for passing both pieces of their party’s economic agenda, but progressives and moderates agreed they need more input from the Senate.
In particular, House Democrats want centrist Sens. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., and Joe Manchin III, D-W.Va., to communicate the topline amount they can support for Democrats’ budget reconciliation package so negotiations on the substance of the legislation can proceed.
House Sets Up $3.5 Trillion Reconciliation Bill for Floor Vote - Doug Sword and Frederic Lee, Tax Notes ($). "Pelosi announced September 26 that debate would begin on the infrastructure package on schedule but that a final vote wouldn’t occur until September 30. That is the last day of the federal fiscal year, and without congressional action reauthorizing them, the surface transportation programs would expire after that date."
Manchin raises red flag on carbon tax - Alexander Bolton, The Hill:
A plan to tax carbon as a way to combat climate change and raise revenue for the reconciliation package is gaining momentum, and some Senate Democrats think that Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) is open to the idea after she raised global warming as a key concern during an interview with the Arizona Republic last week.
But Manchin, who represents coal-rich West Virginia, is not a fan of the idea.
Democrats Debate Duration, Details of Child Tax Credit Extension - Richard Rubin and Andrew Duehren, Wall Street Journal ($):
In particular, Sen. Joe Manchin’s insistence on a work requirement for the credit is complicating the discussions, Senate Democratic aides said. In the evenly divided Senate, Democrats need Mr. Manchin’s vote to extend the credit and advance the rest of their fiscal-policy agenda, including Medicare expansion, tax increases and a national paid-leave program. He has shown his willingness to use that leverage before.
The West Virginia Democrat has raised concerns that the no-strings attached benefit fuels opioid use, according to people familiar with his views. Some other Democrats and outside advocates have argued that the payments help prevent opioid use in hopes of changing his mind on work requirements. West Virginia has the highest rate of opioid-related overdoses in the country, according to government data.
U.S. Corporate Income Faces Third-Highest Integrated Tax Rate in OECD Under Ways and Means Plan - Erica York, Tax Policy Blog. "Under the House Ways and Means tax plan, the United States would tax corporate income at the third-highest integrated tax rate among rich nations, averaging 56.6 percent."
IRS Schedules Date for Estate Tax Closing Letter User Fee - Jonathan Curry, Tax Notes ($). "A $67 user fee for issuance of an estate tax closing letter is scheduled to go into effect October 28, according to the IRS."
IRS Inadequately Identifying Fraud on International Returns - Benjamin Guggenheim, Tax Notes ($):
In a report released September 27, TIGTA found that the IRS missed 8,332 international tax returns with potentially erroneous or fraudulent information that year, representing nearly $20.6 million in potentially fraudulent refunds. That’s out of more than 873,000 international returns filed in 2018.
While some of the report’s findings are redacted, TIGTA said the returns it identified likely claimed fraudulent additional child tax credits and other tax refunds.
California Governor Signs Bill Exempting Some COVID-19 Grants - Benjamin Valdez, Tax Notes. "The bill implements a corporate income tax exemption for grants received through the California Microbusiness COVID-19 Relief Grant Program for tax years beginning on or after September 1, 2020, and ending before January 1, 2023. According to a Senate Budget and Fiscal Review Committee analysis of the bill, a personal income tax exemption was already allowed for grants made through the program. The bill also implements a personal income tax exemption for grants made through the California Venues Grant Program for tax years beginning on or after September 1, 2020, and ending before January 1, 2023."
State Variations on SALT Cap Workaround Are a Potential IRS Issue - Amy Hamilton, Tax Notes ($):
In Wisconsin and Louisiana, the passthrough entity participating in the SALT cap workaround can elect to be treated as a C corporation for state tax purposes. The tax bases for the workaround are different among the states; for example, California, New Jersey, and New York have a special passthrough entity tax base consisting only of distributive shares to individuals. The tax rate structures also vary, with states like California and Connecticut imposing flat rates while the New Jersey and New York approaches use rate brackets.
This issue doesn't get much attention, but it will be a big deal this coming filing season.
Related: Working Around the SALT Deduction Cap.
Nexus Issues a Concern as Employers Permit Remote Work - Andrea Muse, Tax Notes ($):
Wilson said many employers will likely permit remote work arrangements going forward, which may create nexus issues. He explained that nexus is traditionally based on physical presence but states may also have factor presence and economic presence standards for income tax purposes.
Wilson further said that some states can treat having one employee within their borders as creating nexus, citing the New Jersey Tax Court's 2010 decision in Telebright Corp. Inc. v. Director, New Jersey Division of Taxation. The New Jersey Superior Court, Appellate Division, affirmed the tax court's holding in 2012.
Employers should prepare to file in more states.
Almost 20% of CA restaurants used zappers to evade taxes - Kay Bell, Don't Mess With Taxes. "So-called zappers are used to delete actual sales from a business' point of sale records. The set-ups essentially divert sales from the sums that restaurants use to calculate how much sales tax the business owes."
While IRS Code Section 280E is clear that all the deductions and credits aren’t allowed for an illegal business, there’s a caveat: Marijuana business owners can deduct their cost of goods sold, which is basically the cost of their inventory. What isn’t deductible are the normal overhead expenses, such as advertising expenses, wages and salaries, and travel expenses, to name a few.
I understand this nuance can be a challenge for some business owners, and I also realize small businesses don’t always have a lot of resources available to them. That’s why I’m making sure the IRS is doing what it can to help businesses with our new Cannabis/Marijuana Initiative.
The goal of this initiative is to implement a strategy to increase voluntary compliance with the tax law while also identifying and addressing non-compliance. I believe this will positively impact filing, payment and reporting compliance on the part of all businesses involved in the growing, distribution and sales of cannabis/marijuana.
It's hard to imagine this coming from the IRS in, say, 1978.
New Jersey Couple Owe $500K In FBAR Penalties, US Says - David Hansen, Law360 Tax Authority. "A married couple in New Jersey owe nearly $500,000 in penalties and fees for nonwillful failures to report their foreign bank account holdings to the Internal Revenue Service, the government alleged in a lawsuit."
That's for "nonwillful" failure to file. Imagine if they had done it on purpose. If you have foreign assets, you need to make sure you are filing the proper reports.

French telecoms company Orange has no plans to launch a mobile network operator in Swaziland, the company chief executive officer confirmed on Thursday.
Last month it was reported that the French telco was “eyeing Swaziland’s mobile phone market and could soon add Africa’s last absolute monarch to its growing presence on the continent”.
Swaziland has two network operators: Swazi Telecom, which operates as a fixed line network operator and MTN Swaziland, which is the country’s chief mobile operator.
Speaking to ITWeb Africa Orange global chief executive officer, Sebastien Crozier said the report was a misunderstanding as there are no plans for other operations in the landlocked African country.
Orange operates in Swaziland by providing online services and selling devices as well as SIM cards for people travelling to Europe, Botswana, Ivory Coast and African other countries.
Our plans for Swaziland have to do with our online store, which is doing well, Crozier said.
“We have planned for the beginning of next year to extend our coverage of the online store because there is a customer union between Swaziland, Botswana and Namibia,” he said.
“And probably because some people have heard we are going to extend the coverage of the delivery in Swaziland they thought Orange will set a new mobile operator in the country,” Crozier noted.
“We plan to be able to deliver products in Swaziland to our online store. If there are opportunities then why not, but at the moment that is not the case,” he said.
Orange has a huge African presence with operations in 17 countries in Africa and the Middle East.

Plan a Family
Make hot chocolate and have a family
meeting to review and discuss your
traditions and menu plans. Start with
prayer, asking the Lord what He
would have you do to celebrate
Thanksgiving, His birth, and the New
Year. Ask whom you might be able to
reach out to through these activities,
what He wants to do in your family,
and how you can carry out His will.
Then talk about it. You might be
surprised to learn what your family
members passionately feel is an
important part of Thanksgiving or
Christmas celebrations. You might be
able to drop a few expensive or time-consuming dishes (and activities) and
focus on the ultimate favorites, which
are often simple. Try to let everyone
choose at least one favorite!
Narrowing the list can really help
you save money and avoid the stress of
cooking so many dishes, not to
mention the quandary of what to do
with leftovers on those dishes you
“always” make but never really get
gobbled down! It may be time to let
some traditions end. It would not be
Christmas without Peanut Butter
Fudge in our home, but my family is
okay without the homemade cranberry
sauce and the Southern Living
stuffing of the year.
Don’t get sidetracked by all of the
beautiful feasts portrayed in magazines, which entice you to buy
multiple ingredients not normally on
your list. Make a commitment to
simplify this year!
Plan to Organize
Now that you have revamped your
family plan, grab a notebook and
create a “Holiday Recipe Journal.”
Include in it all recipes for
Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s
Day, events you are going to, food
gifts, and parties. This keeps things
neat and all in one place, allowing you
to see which ingredients you will need
throughout the season. You now have
the tools with which you can compile
a master grocery list for the holidays.
Pull a math and economics lesson
in by having the kids help you scour
the Recipe Journal and determine how
many ingredients you will need altogether. How many cups of sugar and
flour will you need? Therefore, how
many bags of flour and sugar do you
need to buy? How many cans of
pumpkin, evaporated milk, broth, etc.
will be needed? Let them peruse the
pantry to take inventory. Do you have
enough cinnamon, cloves, sage, and
other spices? Write directly on the
cans, earmarking them for certain
dishes, or put colorful stickers or
labels on your cans and boxes of food.
Let the family know that these labeled
containers are reserved for holiday
meals; they are not to be used for
other meals. Write down all of the
ingredients you still need, creating one
Take the kids on a grocery trip to
establish a baseline for what the prices
of those ingredients are now. Compare
the prices of these items at your local
grocery store, health food store, and
Record current prices for flour, sugar,
turkey, ham, spices, etc., so that you can
easily spot a good deal when you notice
one in an upcoming sale flyer. Figure out
how much it would cost at “today’s
price” and what that total might be. Yes,
this takes time, but it helps everyone
learn what the best price is. If corn is
always 89 cents a can, you know that two
cans for $1 is a sale, and three cans for
$1 is the time to really stock up. Is it
wiser to purchase 10 lbs of sugar at the
warehouse store than it is to purchase the
grocery store’s 4-lb bag that’s on sale?
Often what we perceive (or are led to
believe) is a deal isn’t a deal at all.
Compare ounces and pounds for best
Keep a copy of your master list in
your Recipe Journal and a second one in
your car, so that you can take advantage
of super sales you might run across
unexpectedly. You are training your children to be good stewards.

Peanut Butter Fudge
3 cups sugar
¾ cup butter (I always use real butter.)

Plop 3 cups of sugar and 1-½ sticks of butter into
a microwave-safe bowl. Swirl ⁄ cup evaporated
milk into it. Microwave for about 3 minutes. Stir
really well, scraping the edges; normally it is
warm at this point.
Microwave 3 more minutes. Remove the bowl
carefully, stir, and scrape down the edges. Return
to microwave for another 3–5 minutes (with it
While that mixture is cooking, put the peanut
butter and marshmallow cream in a big bowl.
(You don’t have to stir these two ingredients
together at all—the boiling fudge will melt them
for you.) Place that bowl in the sink. Remove the
boiling sugar mixture carefully and pour it into
the peanut butter/marshmallow cream mixture
in the other bowl. Stir well, and then add vanilla.
Pour into a pan and let cool. That’s it!
My grandfather was the king of peanut butter
fudge back home, and he would “beat it and
beat it” to get the high gloss of high-quality
fudge. My family ended up loving my microwave
version almost as well, but of course, nothing
ever tasted as good as Grandpa’s! Enjoy!

Which Scottish sports venues, stadia and football grounds will require a covid vaccine passport?
The law for attending Scottish sports venues will change in October when the new rules over covid certification come in to force.
Sporting venues with capacity over 10,000 will be required to see proof of spectators’ double-jags before they are admitted to the largest events in the country, regardless of sport or discipline.
It will affect audiences at boxing, golf, horse racing, rugby and primarily football where Rangers, Celtic, Hearts, Hibs and Aberdeen regularly exceed the 10,000 crowd threshold.
However when some of the country’s other stadia are full – or close to it – the rules will be implemented too.
Here is a look at the grounds around the country where the rules could be applied.

Moringa - The Most Nutrition Food and Health Supplement for Old Men
In the April 2009 Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism looked at 1600 men 65 or older in the United States to find the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and the risk factors for its occurrence.
Deficiency of Vitamin D is defined as a 25 (OH) D blood level less than 10 (mg/mL). Vitamin D insufficiency is defined as 25 (OH) D blood levels between 10 and 20 mg/mL.
Vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency have been linked to the following health problems:
1. Heart disease
3. High blood pressure
4. More severe asthma
5. Increased risk of developing hip osteoarthritis
6. Lower cognitive performance
7. Osteomalacia - week muscles and week bones
Risk factors of Vitamin D deficiency include the following:
2. Darker skin pigment
3. Lack of exposure to the sun
4. Use of sunscreen
5. Wearing clothing with long sleeves and hats
6. Over the age of 60
7. Tinted windows
8. Cloudy days
9. Air pollution
11.Spring and winter seasons
12.Person has fat malabsorption syndromes or inflammatory bowel disease
13.Low intake of Vitamin D through fortified foods and supplements
How to stay healthy for elderly male? Eating a well-balanced diets filled with whole grains, fruits, vegetables, lean animal and plant-based proteins, low-fat dairy products and heart healthy fats.
1. Calcium and Vitamin D:
Older adults need more vitamin D and calcium to help maintain strong and healthy bones. The FDA’s current recommended daily allowance (RDA) of vitamin D for adults over 70 years old is 600 to 800 IU (International Unit) per day, and 400 IU per day for people over 50. But many experts in the field suggest that current recommendations may not be enough for older adults to maintain optimal health, the amount should be doubled.
2. Fiber: Fiber helps keep bowel functions normal and is good for your heart. Men older than 50 need 30 grams of fiber a day.
3. Potassium: Increasing potassium intake along with decreasing sodium (salt) may lower your risk of high blood pressure.
4. Healthy Fats: Most of the fats you consume should come from heart-healthy unsaturated fats.
5. Take Moringa Capsules daily.

This SEVEN ingredient roasted vegetable bowl is packed with healthy powerhouses: broccoli, butternut squash, avocado and farm-fresh runny-yolk eggs. Roasted broccoli bowls are easy to customize with whatever vegetables are hanging out in your fridge whenever your stomach’s-a-rumblin’. Gluten Free, Paleo, Whole30.
I’m really into one-bowl meals right now for brunch. Whatever’s in the fridge, I like to toss it on a tray, roast it in the oven until crispy and browned and top it with proteins, sauce, avocado, etc. Whatever I have on hand! I hesitated to even post this “recipe”. Roasted broccoli bowls are more of a template for making a quick meal with what you have on hand, but it’s a quick meal option with SUPER SIMPLE ingredients (nothing fancy here!) and zero-effort. Okay, maybe 5% effort required to chop a few vegetables and boil an egg. So i had to share!
Where are all of my broccoli lovers at?! These roasted broccoli bowls are filled with crispy, crunchy broccoli roasted with olive oil and smoked paprika.
The truth is, no matter how much I love creating and sharing recipes for beautiful waffles and cakes, this is how I really eat. I’m surprisingly lazy when it comes to making my own meals. Lazy has negative connotations, so how about we call it efficient instead? Cool.
95% of my meals looks like a bowl of whatever vegetables, fruit and protein are in the fridge with sliced avocado. Because incase you haven’t heard, I’m obseeeessed with avocados. See examples A: avocado salmon cakes and B: blt stuffed avocados
Now that it’s officially Fall, I’m happily including squash in many of my meals. These butternut squash “fries” aren’t crispy like a potato fry would be. They’re soft, sweet fry-shaped butternut squash sticks that taste AMAZING covered in the runny-yolk of a soft-boiled egg. Seasoned with cayenne and smoked paprika, they have a tiny kick too.
Roasted Broccoli Bowls with Butternut Squash Fries
A seven ingredient roasted vegetable bowl with broccoli, butternut squash, avocado and farm-fresh runny-yolk eggs. Gluten Free, Paleo, Whole30.
- Prep Time: 10 Minutes
- Cook Time: 30 minutes
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 2-3 Servings
- 1 Small butternut squash, sliced into fries
- 1 Small head of broccoli, chopped into florets
- 1-2 Tablespoons olive oil, buy here
- Smoked paprika (about 1 teaspoon)
- Garlic powder (about 1/2 teaspoon)
- Cayenne (up to 1/2 teaspoon)
- Salt and pepper
- Sliced cherry tomatoes
- Sliced cucumber
- 1-2 Eggs per bowl
- Fresh basil to garnish
- Heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the broccoli florets on one half of the baking sheet and the butternut squash fries on the other.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables. Sprinkle the smoked paprika, garlic, salt and pepper over the broccoli and butternut squash. Season the butternut squash with the cayenne.
- Bake for about 25 minutes, until the broccoli is browned and crispy and the butternut squash is soft.
- When there are about 10 minutes left on the vegetables, cook the eggs. You can cook them any way you prefer (fried, poached, soft-boiled, etc.)
- Place the roasted vegetables in a bowl with cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, avocado and 1-2 eggs. Garnish with fresh basil.
How to make soft-boiled eggs:
- Fill a small saucepan with water (enough that a few eggs will be covered).
- Place the pot of water over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
- Carefully lower the eggs into the water with a spoon and reduce the heat to medium or medium-low. You want the water to still be softly boiling, but not enough to cause the eggs to bounce around.
- Let the eggs cook for 4-5 minutes. If you want them softer, take the eggs out at 4. For eggs that are more done, let them cook for up to 6 minutes. Note that the more eggs you add to the pan, the longer they will need to boil because more eggs will reduce the temperature of the water in the pot.
- Once the eggs are done, turn off the heat and turn the faucet on cold. Bring the pot under the cold water and let it overflow until the water inside the pot has cooled enough to grab the eggs.

About 'Rehab for Empaths' Workshops
@ Yoga Peace Kula in Belmar
Offering empathy, a deep sensitivity to others, can be an amazing gift in relationships, but what happens when it’s not? Most of us can leave situations feeling physically drained, mentally exhausted, and emotionally confused if we have not come prepared. Empathy is a necessary part of an evolving conscious experience but when a great gift is not cared for, it can become a huge liability. As healers, seekers, artists, and teachers we spend years wearing our hearts, gifts, and power on our sleeves, leaving us open for repeated overwhelm, and often the deadly dynamic of victimization.
These rehabilitation workshops are lead by shaman, professional empath, and life coach, Erika Graiff, who has spent years embodying techniques and wisdom from her personal and professional experience. Empathy is a gift but suffering in relationships is a choice. Learning to use the power of empathy wisely is a skill to be honored and honed. These rehabilitation workshops help clarify the problem, prepare and practice for the real world, while moving you into the driver's seat of your own joyful life experience, blessed with the gifts of an empath.

Liverpool were stunned at their home stadium after Chelsea came from behind to score two goals and oust Liverpool out of the Carabao Cup.
Liverpool boss Jurgen klopp revealed his disappointment at the end of the game and slammed the referee for not overruling Emerson’s goal, which cancelled out Daniel Sturridge’s opener.
He first bashed his defence for giving out too much space as he said after the game: “We knew how Chelsea wanted to play but we gave them too much space and weren’t compact enough. We still had the bigger chances in the first half.”
Despite VAR not being able to fish out Emerson’s offside, Klopp insisted that the Chelsea left-back was off and that that keita’s rash tackle on Victor Moses wasn’t a foul.
He said: “No, I don’t think so. The linesman is in a really good position. There was so much in the game.
“Unfortunately in the end we have to take it. We wanted to win it, we feel unlucky, we hit the bar.”
Klopp said he believed Chelsea’s goal should have been ruled out despite VAR giving it in Chelsea’s favour.
He said: “I think the first goal is offside. Three players are offside – two for sure.
“They watched it and didn’t think it was offside. We have to take it.
“This is good preparation for Saturday but we have to defend better.”
Chelsea and Liverpool will meet again in the Premier League on Saturday.

He sought Dr. Rivkin’s opinion in finding an alternative to implants, which he thought would easily reveal the fact that he had gotten work done. Additionally, he was worried about the three to four week downtime following a surgery. Dr. Rivkin chose to inject Radiesse, a filler that lasts about 10 months. Fillers like Radiesse are perfect for patients who are unsure of wanting to get something done, since they do not last a long time and can easily be adjusted to the patient’s liking during follow-up procedures.


TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. – The son of a Michigan sheriff's deputy who police say admitted killing a 16-year-old girl has been charged with murder.
Seventeen-year-old Robert Schwander was charged as an adult Thursday with first-degree murder in the death of Carly Lewis.
He has pleaded not guilty. Defense attorney Clarence Gomery tells The Associated Press that Schwander has called Lewis' death an accident and recognizes the "seriousness and potential consequences."
Schwander faces life in prison if convicted.
Investigators say they believe Schwander killed Lewis June 2 in a vacant building and moved her body to a sand pile at a public works site two days later.
The Grand Traverse County sheriff's department issued a statement saying Schwander's father is on paid administrative leave and that the case is "especially difficult" for the department.

During his time with the Letran Knights, Raymond Almazan, now in the PBA playing for the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters, clearly embodied the team’s culture: undying bravery against all odds.
True to their form, the Letran Knights have been the biggest surprise so far in the young NCAA season by winning their first two games in convincing fashion.
They opened their campaign with an 82-53 blowout win against the De La Salle College of Saint Benilde Blazers and once again wielded the upset axe in their second game against the stronger Jose Rizal University Heavy Bombers by earning a convincing 78-62 win.
In their win against JRU, Rey Nambatac exploded for 25 points and 4 rebounds while Kevin Racal had 15 points. In addition, team captain Mark Cruz had 12 points and 2 assists.
“They’re playing well ngayon so sana magtuloy-tuloy lang,” Almazan told Tiebreaker Times about Letran’s hot start. “Nakikita ko naman siguro na contender pa ito at isa sa mga top seed sa NCAA. Hindi naman nawawala Letran.”
Letran became an undersized team since Almazan left and they rely on their disruptive fullcourt pressure often to score easy points. But sometimes looks can be deceiving because the Knights have proven that they can win with that kind of play in their past two games and during the preseason tournaments. The only question that now remains is how long they can sustain that kind of play in the long run when teams finally adjust to them.
“Kahit dati naman at kahit undersized o talagang lugi ang lineup lumalaban pa rin naman. Pag sinabing Letran, ang puso nandiyan talaga sa laban nila.”
Moreover, Almazan also pointed out that he is impressed on how Cruz is making strides as the team’s leader despite his obvious physical disadvantages. He said that he makes up everything by having nerves of steel in every game he plays.
“Kahit noong panahon pa namin sobra na [tapang niya]. Kahit alam mong maliit siya nandoon pa rin ang puso [niya sa paglalaro]. Sana ang pinapakita niya ngayon maging tuloy-tuloy pa,” he added.
Now, with Letran just starting to get its feet wet in the NCAA tourney, Almazan expects that his alma mater will have a legitimate shot in making the playoffs this season. For him, all it takes to achieve is by exerting more effort in their games and showing maturity as the season goes on.
“Siguro mag-iiba yan [ng momentum] pag papasok na sa playoffs. Doon mo makikita ang mga matured na player,” Almazan ended. “Siguro tuloy-tuloy lang nila laro nila [para maabot iyon].”
Letran’s next game will be against the Mapua Cardinals this coming Friday, 12 noon, at the FilOil Flying V Arena.


We’re working to create an open, Web of Things framework of software program and companies that can bridge the communication gap between connected units. Essentially, he stands for a impartial strategy of the linkage between technology and American points concerning unemployment and declining wages. New medical know-how is being constantly developed, from clinical trials for prescription drugs to robotics for advanced surgery! One last however important step to having fun with the learning experience on the subject of new expertise is to make sure that you are using the gear and systems which can be optimized your own wants. For instance, Redpoint Positioning and Skanska use indoor GPS know-how to mark hazard zones and activate security warnings.
Some of essentially the most poignant criticisms of know-how are found in what are actually considered to be dystopian literary classics akin to Aldous Huxley ‘s Brave New World , Anthony Burgess ‘s A Clockwork Orange , and George Orwell ‘s Nineteen Eighty-Four In Goethe’s Faust , Faust selling his soul to the satan in return for power over the bodily world can be typically interpreted as a metaphor for the adoption of industrial technology.
In normal, economists say the technology sector of the economy is somewhat insulated from a steep domestic downturn because it’s more and more international. Construction know-how is advancing rapidly, compressing development schedules for new instruments and significantly increasing their value. The RealSense expertise is essentially a three-D digital camera integrated into computer systems and tablets.
Other corporations are simply unfamiliar with tools and options in areas past digital collaboration. These can be utilized by faculties to prevent access to the constructing or to specific areas inside the school. Rather, the technology that a society has will get the ball rolling for different nonmaterial tradition. They successfully created the expertise to permit you to control your pill, play flight simulator, and even slice fruits in Fruit Ninja only with your eye actions.
It is a market that caught the major laptop companies — both hardware and software program — unexpectedly after Asus, entered the market last 12 months with the $300 Eee PC. The company thought the system would essentially attraction to the schooling market, or as a starter laptop computer for adolescents, but the interest has turned out to be broader. Polarized Multi-Layer Filtration technology lenses are made from one piece of distortion free, ophthalic quality polycarbonate. A flipped classroom is one sort of latest know-how in schooling that’s turning into more and more well-liked.


In July 2020, Columbia University announced the creation of a new Climate School to address the environmental and public health challenges of climate change. The first new school in 25 years at the University, it will draw upon the University's current research centers and programs. In response, undergraduates at Columbia formed the Tricentennial Project, a group focused on exploring and modeling what undergraduates want from a climate school, and communicating with faculty and administration. Come listen to student input and administrative responses in this interactive discussion about the formation of this new school.

CHIKARA PRO 4-24 Philadelphia second night of King of Trios
Sunday, 25 April 2010 13:16
Chikara King of Trios 2010: Night 2
Philadelphia, PA - 4/24/10
By Brian Streleckis, PWChronicle.com
- While waiting in line outside, somebody seemed to have fainted (I didn’t see exactly what happened). He later woke up and was talking, but he still left in an ambulance. The show started a maybe 13 minutes late because they had to replace the canvas with a new one (courtesy of CZW, not the only thing they contributed), but everything was smooth sailing from there.
1. Brodie Lee defeated Grizzly Redwood with his big boot.
Brodie came out (and Gavin Loudspeaker made well sure he was clear of him) and said he was tired of getting disrespected, and he issued a challenge to any of the “dudes” backstage. Out came his former partner Grizzly, suspender-clad by shirtless, and looking for revenge for getting booted out of the team in October. Pretty one-sided, though Grizzly still fought back and hit a dive on Brodie on the outside. A top rope maneuver back inside by Grizzly was turned into a Black Hole Slam by Brodie, then he put the fork in him. (3:09)
2. King of Trios Quarter-Finals: Team Big Japan defeated The Future is Now when Daisuke Sekimoto countered a sky twister attempt by Helios into a German suplex.
A very cool match, especially benefiting Sekimoto. TFIN didn’t quite have the strategy of Mike Quackenbush on the first night and just tried to counter the power with their agility, but it largely lead to Jimmy Olsen getting beat down. Two big moments highlighted the match. Kankuro Hoshino (I think) was attempting to give a back superplex to Helios, Jigsaw (kind of loopy from a spot earlier) came in to try to pull Hoshino off the turnbuckle, but then Sekimoto came in, German suplexing Jigsaw and in turn causing the back superplex in an insane spot. A little later, Sekimoto took a flurry of moves, including one of Olsen’s punches and Helios’ 630, but still kicked out. Just plain fun with another semi-surprising end, but everyone was happy to see the Big Japan crew move on. (13:35)
3. Rey de Voladores 4-way Eliminator: Matt Cross defeated Flip Kendrick and Malachi Jackson and Amasis to advance.
I spoke to Cross (making his Chikara debut) at the Fan Conclave in the afternoon. Very nice guy (as were all the other guys I met), and he mentioned how he got out of Europe just in time before the volcano closed down air travel a day or so later. The match here was just okay, with a lot of flips of little significance. Cross, sporting a Misfits-like tuft of hair and some fingers in a splint, heeled it up a bit. He did his fake out dive where he rebounds his shoulders off the ropes, then came back a little later with a sky twister to the outside. Cross hit Jackson with a shooting star press and Amasis hit Kendrick with a 450, causing both of those guys to be eliminated simultaneously at a little over 7 minutes. Then Amasis, with the crowd behind him with “Funky Pharaoh,” wrestled Cross a little longer. Cross hit a couple more signature moves, including a double stomp to the back, then he finished things off with a moonsault double stomp and a standing shooting star press. (9:49)
4. King of Trios Quarter-Finals: Claudio Castagnoli & Ares & Tursas defeated Team Perros del Mal when Tursas killed Cuije with a 747 Splash.
This match was exactly what it should have been and I enjoyed it for that. El Oriental fought off Claudio and Ares with some good lucha exchanges. Alebrije, the biggest man on his team, squared off with Tursas but was unsuccessful taking him down. We of course saw Cuije come in and attempt to stand up for his team (and he was still beloved here), but he just kept getting booted down. Alebrije and Cuije faked out a tandem dive, rolling back into a pose. Cuije and Tursas indeed squared off, leading to Tursas pressing the little guy over his head and threatening to drop him on the floor, but instead he set him down, booted him again, and brought his girth down upon him.
- Cuije was carried to the back by the ringside doctor. Oriental and Alebrije were left alone in the ring with Cuije’s boots, and Alebrije acted very sad. Oriental then thanked the crowd and gave a shout-out to Chikara and Mexico, and the crowd thanked him back with the “Lucha Libre” chant. Then came intermission.
5. Christopher Daniels defeated Hallowicked with the Best Moonsault Ever.
Unannounced match time! Daniels’ old “Disposable Teens” entrance needs to be cleaned up for Chikara. He played the heel against the home player, taking a powder outside the ring two times early on when Hallowicked got the better of him. He came back and worked over Hallowicked, including with a quebrada. Nice back-and-forth action, including the Angels’ Wings getting blocked. Hallowicked looked to be going for a suplex or the Graveyard Smash, but Daniels grabbed the ref and pulled him into Hallowicked’s chest. Then he hit the urinage to set up his chant-along finisher. Good solid stuff from these two. (13:32)
6. King of Trios Quarter-Finals: Team Osaka Pro defeated F.I.S.T. when Tadasuke countered Chuck Taylor’s Awful Waffle attempt into a cradle with a handful of tights.
Maybe my favorite match on the show, and a more high-profile match for the Osaka Pro crew really won them over with everyone. Atsushi Kotoge, the most agile guy on his team, ran the ropes really fast (shades of Masato Yoshino) and pulled off a few cool moves, including a tope that sent him over the guardrail and a Spanish Fly off the top much later. Daisuke Harada liked his suplexes and hit the hiptoss into the knee again for a nearfall. F.I.S.T. hit the kick/lung-blower combo that got them their first round win, but that was only a nearfall this time. Lots of cool exchanges and some good Kotoge/Harada double-teams, and by the end, despite the shady finish, fans were chanting, “Osaka Pro” and, “That Was Awesome!” (14:27)
7. Rey de Voladores 4-way Eliminator: Ophidian defeated Rich Swann and Cheech Hernandez & Frightmare to advance.
Swann is a CZW regular and as such got a strong reaction from a section of the crowd. He looked quite impressive, including when he and the other three hit dives to the floor early. Swann went for a standing 450 on Ophidian, but Ophidian got the knees up, and then Frightmare gave him the double knees moonsault at around the 4 minute mark. Cheech attempted to hit his version of GTS when he pulled his kneepad down, but never got around to it with all of the stuff happening. Ophidian’s crazy escapes and arm drags eventually lead to him pulling off what looked like the Deja Vu headscissors on Cheech into a reverse rolling prawn hold to eliminate him. Ophidian and Frightmare were left alone and wrestled for maybe another eight minutes, all very good. Fans were chanting for both guys. They each survived the moves the other guy did to score an elimination, and they fought on the outside for a bit. It finally ended when Ophidian hit Frightmare with the Egyptian Destroyer (flipping piledriver off the top). It wasn’t as mind-blowing as when Kota Ibushi and El Generico met last year, but it was still very satisfying considering how impressive both guys have been in their runs thus far. (15:52)
8. King of Trios Quarter-Finals: The Colony defeated Tim Donst & Lince Dorado & Pinkie “Pink Ant” Sanchez when Soldier Ant made Donst tap out to the Chikara Special.
The Colony had shiny new outfits, and Pinkie was sporting a homemade Pink Ant shirt. The match started with a dive to the floor by the Colony and some brawling on the floor that gave the BDK team the upper hand. I think it was Green Ant who was thrown into the ring post. These first few minutes back in the ring were a little rough as the heels had the advantage, and they also spent a few minutes alone in the ring posing. Green Ant came into the ring after a few minutes of this and fought back as best he could while still woozy. I don’t think there were any genuine tags, just guys coming in one or two at a time to fight, but it did get better and mighty dramatic as it went along. Pinkie had Green Ant in the inverted Chikara Special, but it was broken up. Plenty of nearfalls here and there, including a top rope fireman’s carry by Donst. Fire Ant took out Pinkie with a Beach Break on the edge of the apron. Shortly after this, Soldier got Donst alone to lock in the special, and he may have even avoided the kicking counter long enough for the tap out ring. This got over like gangbusters as the Colony scored Chikara’s first decisive victory over BDK. Jakob Hammermeier on the outside threw a fit and threw his jacket down in anger, while Soldier celebrated Donst’s Young Lions Cup. Good match, GREAT ending. (18:51)
More fun stuff and variety as usual, some of it improving upon things from last night. The show ended before 11 PM despite starting late and moved at a pretty brisk pace, so no harm in that. Certainly the longest day when combined with the Fan Conclave in the afternoon, but it’s always an experience. Sunday, the Semi-Finals of King of Trios will be Claudio’s team vs. Team Big Japan and The Colony vs. Team Osaka Pro, leading to the Finals. Plus, Christopher Daniels vs. Eddie Kingston, Matt Cross vs. Ophidian in the Rey de Voladores finals, the annual Tag Team Gauntlet, and at least two other matches.il. Get busy.

A secret order signed by Hillary Clinton, the US Secretary of State, directed American diplomats to act as spies around the world against friends and enemies alike, according to the documents released by WikiLeaks.
US diplomats were instructed to gather personal details about Ban Ki Moon, the United Nations Secretary-General. Mrs Clinton sought personal information about the UN Security Council permanent representatives from Britain, China, Russia and France.
The Americans had a “mole” inside the German Government of Chancellor Angela Merkel, according to a source quoted in Der Spiegel magazine.
The revelation that Mrs Clinton had asked serving diplomats to turn to spying as part of their duties and to focus on the UN met with little surprise from within the organisation, which is based…

Summer adventures: YSI Plano
Our first adventure of Summer 2017 came as we gathered in Plano, TX (north of Dallas) to teach at the Young Saxophonist's Institute (YSI, for short). YSI began a few years ago in Houston as a weeklong summer camp for middle and high school saxophonists. During each camp, students participate in saxophone quartets and larger ensembles, and it was our pleasure to help out this year at the Plano location! Joining us as camp instructors was Dallas-based saxophonist Andy Wright.
Camp typically began every day at 9:00am but for the first day we started a bit earlier in order to have the students audition for their ensembles. Based on this evaluation, students were placed into three ensembles that they participated in throughout the week: a saxophone quartet, a smaller saxophone ensemble, and one larger saxophone ensemble that incorporated all of the campers and staff. After auditioning and some icebreakers, we jumped right into ensemble rehearsals and sectionals. The first day was certainly a little more hectic than the others, but we (and the students) made it out alive!
We got into a groove over the next few days: ensemble sectionals and rehearsals took place in the morning along with masterclasses and discussions presented by the instructors on a variety of topics such as saxophone history, reed management, and extended techniques. After the morning block, we had some lunch and then dove back into quartet and large ensemble rehearsals. Each day ended at 5:00pm after which the campers headed home.
The last day of camp was our concert day. The students showed up and we had some last minute rehearsals where the groups ran their music and discussed the logistics of the evening. We relaxed a bit in the afternoon with a movie and pizza before show time at 6:30pm. Lots of parents and friends showed up for the concert, and the students were very excited to share the music they had been working on for the past week. After the last performance, we took some pictures, quickly cleaned up the band hall, and just like that, the week was over.
The students we worked with were amazingly curious, intuitive, and musical. They put on a great performance, and we could not have been more honored to be able to work with them this past week!

When it comes to maskandi music, Nkunziyembongolo is a household name.
The 64-year-old is still going strong in his genre, with his 44th album now on sale. Yes, he has 44 albums out. Crazy!
His latest offering is called Inhlanhla, with the themes surrounding the album being that of longevity and his desire to keep making music.
He told SunBuzz: “I thought I was too old to continue singing as I’m already getting my pension grant, but I realised that I should never quit because I love music.
“I’m the king of maskandi and I’m also a leader of the people in my village. I will never quit music because it runs in my blood.”
Nkunziyembongolo has been releasing music since 1971, meaning his 44 years in the industry is almost double the age of some of 2015's biggest stars.
“These days it’s rare to sing maskandi up until my age. Most of the singers don’t make it to age 60 and above,” he added.

Everything in this Official The First Revolution Started With Tea The Next Starts With Coffee Brewed Shirt world has its own merits and demerits. Nothing is perfect in this world. Perfection is only the privilege of God. So, town life and country life have their own advantages and disadvantages. Commodities, pleasures, scenes, entertainment, and recreation that one finds in cities are not available in the country-side and vice versa. There goes a saying that “God first made the country and then, the city.” This sums up the belief that even God resides in villages or in the countryside. Why? Because the villages and the countryside have fresh non-polluted air. The villagers get fresh vegetables and pure milk which is nourishing.
Official The First Revolution Started With Tea The Next Starts With Coffee Brewed Shirt, Tank Top, V-neck, Sweatshirt, And Hoodie
Moreover, the Official The First Revolution Started With Tea The Next Starts With Coffee Brewed Shirts village is free from the din and dust, noise and clamor as well as smoke and heat of the cities. A village is near nature and so, nearer to God. The village people are innocent and lead simple lives. A village is the very embodiment of simplicity and a symbol of God’s bounty. The countryside is superior to towns in many other respects also. The lush green fields, the vast meadows, the tree groves, the lovely landscapes, and the farmers working in their fields, reaping the crops amidst the chirping of birds, are the sights that are really elevating and invigorating.

Pioneering headphones to test and help prevent further hearing loss
To tackle the issue of hearing loss, Audeara has launched some new headphones which prevent further hearing loss through making the sound better rather than louder.
According to Action on Hearing Loss – a UK charity which strives to help people who suffer from deafness and tinnitus – there are currently 11 million people with hearing loss in the UK, approximately 16 percent of the population.
More than 40 percent of people over 50 years old have hearing loss, rising to 71 percent of people over the age of 70, but it isn’t just later in life where hearing can be affected.
Action on Hearing Loss Chief Executive Paul Breckell commented: “Worryingly some of our research showed that over half of people aged 18 to 24 had experienced tinnitus, with 40 percent of people unaware that being exposed to loud noise can lead to permanent tinnitus.”
In 2015, the World Health Organisation warned that around 1.1 billion teenagers and young adults are at risk of hearing loss due to the unsafe use of personal audio devices, including smartphones, and exposure to damaging levels of sound at noisy entertainment venues such as nightclubs, bars and sporting events.
The greatest danger is that many people are not aware that they are suffering from hearing loss because they continually turn up the volume to compensate.
To tackle this problem the Audeara A-01 headphones were Created by a group of Australian doctors and engineers and feature the only in-built hearing test in personal headphones that has been endorsed by Australian audiologists.
CEO and Co-Founder of Audeara Dr James Fielding said: “Audeara’s headphones are unique thanks to the in-built, sophisticated, medical-style hearing test run by app and compatible with any smart phone that lets users map the sound output of the headphones with their hearing.
“The A-01s will identify if people have any hearing loss in either ear and use this information to create an optimised acoustic landscape.
“The calibration gets stored in the headphones themselves, so it works with any input they are attached to, to provide individually tailored sound for making phone calls, movie viewing, every day applications and of course, listening to music.
“With this technology we are able to create an enhanced listening experience for our users. Sometimes the change is enormous, other times it’s subtle, but it’s always there.”
The A-01 headphones can be worn by those with hearing aids and cochlear implants so those with hearing loss already can still benefit from using them. Additionally, they can be used to test and retest hearing over a lifetime and adapt music to the users’ individual needs.
At the product set-up phase, the result of the audiogram display is useful for long-term tracking of any hearing loss and also as an educational tool to prevent long-term hearing impairment. If it shows significant impairment it sends an alert to the user which recommends they seek more formal analysis.
Audeara was founded in 2014 by Dr. Chris Jeffery and Dr. James Fielding who decided to create a medical-style audiogram product that was inexpensive and easy-to-use.

Dating shows have been a staple of reality TV programming for decades. From The Bachelor to Love Island, audiences cannot seem to get enough of the drama, the romance, and the heartbreak that comes with watching people search for love on television. However, as the genre has evolved and expanded, so too have the criticisms leveled against it. In this article, we will explore the world of reality TV dating shows, examining their popularity, their impact on society, and the ethical questions they raise.
The Popularity of Reality TV Dating Shows
Reality TV dating shows have become a global phenomenon. From the United States to the United Kingdom, from Australia to China, audiences around the world have been captivated by the drama and romance of these shows. But why are they so popular? One reason is that they offer viewers a glimpse into the dating lives of others, providing insight into the ups and downs of modern relationships. Additionally, these shows often feature beautiful and charismatic contestants who are looking for love, which can make for compelling viewing. Finally, many people enjoy watching reality TV dating shows because they provide an escape from their own lives, allowing them to live vicariously through the contestants on screen.
The Impact of Reality TV Dating Shows
While reality TV dating shows can be entertaining and enjoyable to watch, they also have a significant impact on society. One way they do this is by shaping cultural attitudes towards love and relationships. Shows like The Bachelor often portray love as a competition, with contestants vying for the affections of one person. This can reinforce harmful gender stereotypes, with women often portrayed as passive objects of desire and men as powerful decision-makers. Additionally, these shows can create unrealistic expectations about what love should look like, with contestants often professing their love after only a few weeks of knowing each other.
The Ethical Questions Raised by Reality TV Dating Shows
Reality TV dating shows also raise a number of ethical questions. One such question is whether or not it is ethical to manipulate and exploit contestants for entertainment purposes. Many of these shows rely on creating drama and conflict between contestants, often by editing footage or manipulating situations. This can be emotionally damaging for the contestants involved, who may struggle with the aftermath of their on-screen behavior long after the cameras stop rolling.
Another ethical concern raised by reality TV dating shows is the issue of consent. Contestants on these shows are often required to sign contracts that give producers wide-ranging control over their lives, including their behavior on and off camera. This can create situations where contestants are pressured into doing things they might not otherwise be comfortable with in order to stay on the show. Additionally, some shows have been criticized for blurring the lines between consent and coercion, with contestants feeling pressured to engage in sexual behavior in order to stay in the competition.
The Future of Reality TV Dating Shows
As the genre continues to evolve and grow, it is likely that reality TV dating shows will continue to be a popular form of entertainment. However, it is important that we continue to critically examine their impact on society and raise ethical questions about their production. By doing so, we can ensure that these shows are produced in a way that is respectful of the contestants involved and that they promote healthy attitudes towards love and relationships.
Reality Tv Shows Dating
Reality TV dating shows are a fascinating cultural phenomenon that has captivated audiences around the world. While they can be entertaining and enjoyable to watch, they also raise important questions about their impact on society and their ethical implications. As we continue to explore this genre, it is important that we do so with a critical eye and an awareness of the potential harm that can result from unchecked exploitation and manipulation. Only then can we ensure that these shows continue to provide insightful and entertaining glimpses into the complex world of modern dating while promoting healthy attitudes towards love and relationships.

BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraq’s most revered Shiite cleric was recovering Thursday from surgery for a fractured bone following an accident in his home, officials said.
Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, who turns 90 later this year and whose opinion is often sought during troubled times, fractured a thigh bone when he slipped while bathing before evening prayers Wednesday night, two officials close to the cleric said. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss details with the media.
A representative of al-Sistani said the cleric was in stable condition following the Thursday operation. He spoke at a press conference at the Kafeel hospital in the southern city of Karbala, where al-Sistani had been taken for the operation. The hospital’s medical team, speaking at the conference, said they expected a speedy recovery.
The surgery was considered risky for his age and came amid ongoing tensions in Iraq following the U.S. killing of a top Iranian general and a popular protest movement against the country’s ruling elite.
The surgery raised concern among al-Sistani’s followers.
“The problem is not with the operation, the problem is with old age,” s aid one of the officials close to the cleric.
News of the surgery sparked a flurry of well-wishes on social media and from Iraqi and diplomatic officials.
Caretaker Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi said the government was at al-Sistani’s disposal to provide him with necessary care “inside or outside Iraq immediately,” according to a statement from his office.
The U.S. E mbassy in Baghdad said it has received “with great joy” news of al-Sistani’s successful surgery, noting his “ever-lasting stabilizing role.”
“He will be in our prayers during the recovery period, we hope it will be a speedy one,” the embassy said in a statement.
Al-Sistani, who’s opinion holds sway over many Iraqis, has been critical in calming tensions in recent months as the country faced crisis after crisis beginning with mass protests seeking to unseat the political establishment and the recent U.S. drone strike that killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani.
The subtle messaging in his weekly sermons and commentary have steered politics during the difficult times.
When the Islamic State group overran vast swathes of Iraqi territory in the summer of 2014, al-Sistani issued a fatwa calling on all able-bodied men from across sectarian divides to take up arms and fight the group.
Recently, he emerged as a key supporter of the protest movement, calling for electoral reforms and the rights of the people. His withdrawal of support for Abdul-Mahdi’s government triggered the premier’s resignation in December.
