Google has recently announced that switching from HTTP to HTTPS will improve your website ranking in Google search results. Google is concerned about webmaster’s security, so along with financial and e-commerce sites they want all sites should move from HTTP to HTTPS. Google has also said that it is a very light weight signal that has affected less that 1 % of global queries. In future they have decided to reinforce this signal in order to make web a secure place for all webmasters. Are you aware of the differences between the HTTP and HTTPS? If not then let me explain it to you. HTTP stands for “Hypertext Transfer Protocol” which is common for all websites but the letter S which stands for ‘Secure’ creates a huge difference between HTTP and HTTPS. In other words HTTPS encrypts the data between the website and web browser and as a result all your data remains secure. The head of Google web spam team, Matt Cutts has also declared that he is pleased to make HTTPS as a ranking factor in Google search results. Recently in a blog post, the global search engine giant Google mentioned that they are concerned about the security and privacy of the websites that visitors access from Google. According to their tests for the past few months HTTPS showed positive responses. So Google is considering HTTPS as an important ranking factor. At present it is a very light weight signal as compared to others.
Google has updated Webmaster tool in order to manage the HTTPS sites, While migrating from HTTP to HTTPS, makeing sure your traffic doesn’t suffer. Therefore inform Google about your migration.
Google has revealed the following tips for HTTPS as mentioned below:
- First decide the kind of certificates you need: single, multi-domain or wild card.
- Use 2048-bit key certificates
- Use relative URLs for resources that reside on the same secure domain
- Don’t stop Google from crawling your HTTPS sites using robots.txt
- Don’t use the noindex robots Meta tags.

Last weekend was my 10th year competing in the 48Hours filmmaking competition (my 3rd as team captain). A third of marriages don’t last that long, so that shows you how much I love this competition.
It also shows you how old I’m getting. So in an impulsive act of age denial, I got on the Instagrammy and snapped every hour of our five-person team’s efforts.
You’d think that’d equate to 48 photos, but given half our team had to play in a sports tournament on the Sunday, that left us with the Friday and Saturday to make a 48Hours film. That’s 30 hours minus eight hours for sleep (I wasn’t going to Paranormal Activity myself) which resulted in these 22 ‘grams…
Friday 6:55pm-ish: The tension is palpable if you couldn’t tell by the dab.
8:00pm-ish: Got a story. Now to write it next to my bourbon and chocolate.
9:00pm-ish: Script’s done. Earned another beverage.
10:00pm-ish: Set up the recording booth (i.e. a laptop, microphone, and parts I ripped off a couch.
11:00pm-ish: Still recording with our actor.
12:00pm-ish: Bloody Jonathan Thurston got a conversion to send the game into overtime!
Saturday morning: Starting the day with the right attitude.
9:00am-ish: Something isn’t right with the audio but that’s OK because everything is OK.
10:00am-ish: Voice track: locked. This is basically our storyboard.
11.00am-ish: Found the perfect royalty free music.
Midday-ish: Welcome to our set.
1:00pm I think?: This is a crucial shot.
After 1:00pm, I guess: Fuel.
Saturday afternoon at some point: The edit… I can almost… feel it.
Still Saturday afternoon: Getting the hang of this directing thing.
Getting close to Saturday night: Our technical element.
Now it’s Saturday night: Still fine. Completely fine.
7:00pm: Halfway through the weekend and nothing is broken so cheers.
8:00pm-ish: Taking an 80min break.
After half time: Oh, you thought I was kidding.
Nearly Sunday: Got nostalgic. Now we’re watching our 2011 48Hours film while we wait for post-production stuff to finish.
Sunday 12.01am-ish: A message to my past self.

This recipe was published c. 1955 in The Handy Cook Book (Second Edition) compiled by The Presbytery Anns of Guymon, Oklahoma. It was submitted by Mrs. L. E. Latham who found the recipe in a cook book owned by her mother, Mrs. S. C. Tyler.
Pick over one quart pea beans, cover with cold water, and soak over night. In morning, drain, cover with fresh water, heat slowly (keeping water below boiling point), and cook until skins will burst — which is best determined by taking a few beans on the tip of a spoon and blowing on them, when skins will burst if sufficiently cooked. Beans thus tested must, of course, be thrown away. Drain beans, throwing bean-water out of doors, not in sink.
Scald rind of ¾ pound fat salt pork, scrape, remove ¼ inch slice and put in bottom of bean pot. Cut through rind of remaining pork every ½ inch, making cuts one inch deep. Put beans in pot and bury pork in beans, leaving rind exposed. Mix one tablespoon salt, one tablespoon molasses and three tablespoons sugar, add one cup boiling water, and pour over beans; then add enough more boiling water to cover beans.
Cover bean pot, put in oven and bake slowly six or eight hours, uncovering the last hour of cooking, that rind may become brown and crisp. Add water as needed.
Many feel that by adding with seasonings ½ tablespoon mustard, the beans are more easily digested. If pork mixed with lean is preferred, use less salt.

MRC Box (Mast Rotation Compensation)
The MRC Box enables compensation for wind angle on rotating masts. It measures the angle and direction of mast rotation, enabling the pilot to steer and the system to display true and apparent wind information, which is corrected to allow for mast rotation. An electronic compass, such as the HPC, must also be fitted to any system using the MRC. The MRC weighs only 40 grams and both the unit and all direct connectors are waterproof.

G’day dawgs! Are you looking to level up your VALORANT game? Well, you’ve come to the right place. In this blog post, we’re going to talk about how to counter strafe in VALORANT. This skill is crucial to master if you want to improve your game and take your skills to the next level. Let’s dive right in!
First off, what is counter strafing? Simply put, it’s the technique of canceling your momentum and coming to a complete stop before firing your weapon. This helps to improve your accuracy and increase your chances of landing a headshot. It may sound easy, but it takes practice to get it right.
How to Counter Strafe in VALORANT
Step 1: Practice Makes Perfect
As with anything in life, practice is key. Take some time to practice your counter strafe technique in the training range. Focus on hitting your targets while coming to a complete stop before firing. Try not to rush it, take your time and focus on your accuracy.
Step 2: Use the Right MACRO
There is a lot of debate on whether or not to use a counter strafe macro in VALORANT. Some players prefer to use them while others feel that it’s cheating. It really comes down to personal preference. If you do decide to use a macro, make sure you use the right one for your keyboard and practice using it in training before using it in an actual game.
Step 3: Know When to Counter Strafe
Counter strafing isn’t something you want to do all the time. You need to know when it’s appropriate to use it. Always counter strafe when you’re moving or peeking around corners. It will help to increase your accuracy and reduce the chances of getting shot.
Now, you might be wondering, do I really need to counter strafe in VALORANT? The answer is yes, you do. In fact, it’s one of the key skills you need to master if you want to be a successful player. Counter strafing helps to improve your accuracy, movement, and overall game.
So there you have it, folks, a quick guide on how to counter strafe in VALORANT. Remember, practice makes perfect, use the right macro if you prefer, and know when to use it. Keep in mind that it’s not something you want to overdo, but it’s certainly a valuable skill to have in your arsenal. Happy gaming and good luck on the battlefield, dawgs!

Question: Friday we picked up a female German Shepard. Dixie is 7 weeks old and doing great. She appears to have been the runt, but she has a great personality. Can you tell me why she eats her own poop? I know that the mothers do. I just don’t remember having a puppy do it. She is a little boney, but we have filled the empty hole and are now getting onto a regular feeding schedule. Also, can you tell me about some of the basics for puppies? Thanks. Cara.
Answer: For starters, 7-71/2 weeks of age is the time puppies learn bite inhibition. Dixie should have been left with her mom until 7 1/2 weeks. . .SO. . .make sure if she makes any biting moves on you at all, “yipe” loudly, like a dog, and she will learn that humans are off limits for rough play.
For socializing her to scary noises, shoot off a cap gun occasionally when you are feeding her and give her extra special treats during thunderstorms. The goal is to associate loud and scary noises with good things.
Have friends of all shapes, sizes, and colors visit you when she is still a puppy. Vary the outfits they wear and include men in hats and umbrellas, which are opened in front of her (at the same time she is offered a treat.)
German shepherds have the tendency to be fear biters. The more you socialize as a puppy, the better dog she will end up being. Don’t worry that you will train her out of protecting you. It won’t happen. When she smells danger, she will be there for you.
Her bladder control at this age is only about 3 hours. As she gets to be 5 months of age, she will be able to hold her urine for up to 9 hours. She will want to pee or have a bowel movement
- 10 minutes after she eats
- 5 minutes after she gets up from a nap, and
- 5-10 minutes into play
So take her out and reward her for doing her business outside with a little Easy Cheese (bacon and cheddar is the favorite dog flavor.)
Now, about the poop eating. . . This is a sign of a nutritional . . .usually trace mineral . . .deficiency. Give her good-quality puppy food as puppy formulas have more protein and vitamins/minerals in the formula. Also, add one tablespoon fresh raw fruit/day (pineapple if she’s eat it) and 1/4 cup raw veggies (especially parsley) and the poop eating should stop within a few weeks.
One reason why they eat their own poop is because humans teach them that pooping inside is bad. The human error in potty training is
- Not knowing the signs of readiness to eliminate,
- Not taking the puppy out at the appropriate times, and
- Punishing the animal too late.
Saying “bad dog” after the fact and rubbing their nose in their urine or poop only trains the dog to hide the evidence. If you can’t catch the dog in time, and they can’t hold it any longer, thus making a mistake, don’t make a big deal out of it. Clean it up, sanitize the area with some white vinegar and water and redouble your efforts to take the animal out in time.
Chronic problem animals can be crate trained, but this does not make a larger bladder if the animal is not being let out regularly. Moms only eat the puppy’s poop and urine when they stimulate the puppies to go. Usually this only happens when the animals are less than 3 weeks of age. If they are eating poop outside of this window of time, they are also trace mineral deficient.
Big bellies equal worms. Roundworm her with Pyrantel Pamoate once now and once again in 10 days, then twice a year after that. She should have a corona vaccine along with her 7-in-1 shot. Booster shots should be given 3-4 weeks apart after the first set until she is 24 weeks of age. Rabies is given at 3-6 months of age depending on which state you live in. Bordetella (kennel cough) is given intranasally every 6 months, only if the animal is boarded or she is taken around strange dogs (like during puppy classes or to the dog park.)
This year, especially, we are having lots of challenges with all kinds of diarrhea-type diseases such as Parvo, Rotavirus, Corona, Coccidiosis and other diseases causing bloody stools, so it’s your responsibility as a pet owner to protect them as best you can and watch for signs of illness (yes, even if you have to follow them out into the woods to watch them poop.)

How Well Do You Value Yourself?
How well do you value yourself? How well do you trust yourself? How well do you love yourself?
I ask you these questions today to make you think just how worthy you feel about yourself. Is it a great feeling of worthiness, or a lack there of?
How you feel about yourself is evident in how you portray your self-image. Do you walk with your head held high and look directly at people when you are talking with them, or do you walk with your head down low and always glance down or away from people when you are talking with them? Are you aware that whichever you do, other people notice?
Did you know that bullies target the people who carry a low self-image? They do this so they can feel superior, when in fact they are inferior about themselves. More than likely, someone with a superiority complex made them feel inferior about themselves, so they now go around bullying people just so they can feel powerful and have superiority over others. They got that way because of that person who first had the superiority complex and treated them like crap.
Bullying becomes a domino effect because of it. People who bully don’t value or respect themselves, much less love themselves. They were either taught it, were raised by it, or were treated badly by someone who bullied them. Bullies hate themselves. Therefore, they need to do something to make them feel powerful and superior to others.
Never allow someone who hates themselves to bully you. Never allow someone who has to have a superiority feeling overcome you. Never allow someone who lacks self-value, self-worth, and self-respect to overpower you.
Even though you may not hold your head high, even though you may not carry a high self-image about yourself, do you not value, respect, and love yourself enough to not see the beauty you are? Do you not see you possess these qualities in which the bully obviously lacks?
How well do you respect yourself? How well do you love yourself? How well do you value yourself?
Something to think about.

The Man Who Played Trains. Richard Whittle
The style of writing, and the story, took me back to my days reading Hammond Innes and early Robert Ludlum in the late 70’s early 80’s. Grown up boys own stories. Stories of ordinary men pushed into unusual circumstances in subtle ways that are totally realistic.
In the modern day Mining engineer, and consultant, John Spargo, receives a phone call to tell him his mother is in hospital. Rushing to her bedside he finds she has been beaten up in a home raid. Sadly she dies and John sets out to find out what the person that raided her house was after. The house is in the little run down mining village of Kilcreg, a cul-de-sac town on the Scottish coast. The town used to have a mine, run by Spargo’s father, but since it closed there has been no work and the elderly population wouldn’t be responsible for the attack.
Meanwhile in 1944 a German U-boat captain, Theodore Volker is trying to get home to see his young son. He is a good man whose wife had been killed during an air raid, he looks after his crew, and speaks his mind about the state of the German war effort, and the way they are beginning to lose the war.
When Volker is confronted on a train, by a stranger, and taken to a Luftwaffe base in Berlin, it becomes obvious he is being recruited for a secret mission. A mission to the UK.
As things start to gather pace Sparo’s daughter is kidnapped and he takes on his own mission, to find his daughter and discover why his mother was killed, by who, and why.
It’s no supplies that the happenings during the end of World War 2 are connected with the happenings in modern day Scotland, but how.
This book blends the two story-lines together in an intriguing novel that has been an absolute pleasure to read.
This style of book has gone missing over the last few years in favour of unrealistic adventure thrillers. It’s good to have it back
Thank you Richard Whittle.

Strategy and tips are essential for varied areas equally for online game. Here I am going to share some tips and tactic which is helpful for new players.
What should you do in one’s free time?
At this time you use to do following things when you are free-
- Login to Facebook and Instagram account and chat with your friends which is not necessary.
- Over- thinking and worried about past.
- Waste your time by sleeping.
- Watching unnecessary videos on YouTube and waste your internet and time.
But the internet changes you a lot. You have to do some new productive things and earn money by using your skill.
And the question arise in your mind how to earn money and where to use the skill?
The answer is online games. You can use your time and internet on playing online games like card games which is not like a casino movil. But it’s not easy.
So, here are some tips and strategies for playing online games:-
- Understand the online game is game of skill, not chance. You are choosing players based on how well you expect them to perform. If you do a better job of this than your opponents, you’ll win in the long run.
- Use a different strategy for cash games then you do tournaments. Cash games are ones where you’re competing against a single opponent or you’re trying to land in the top 50% of the field. Best online games offer an almost even money payout, and your goal with such games is to have a high score with low volatility.
- Check the laws where you live before signing up. Not all the states allow daily fantasy sports, although season long contests seem to be legal everywhere.
- Read, read, and then, read some more educated fantasy sports player is a winning fantasy sports player. There are hundreds, probably thousands, of sites which offer Online Gambling Strategies information that can help you to win. Your goal should be to read almost all of it.
- Stick with the sports you understand. Fantasy sports aren’t too different from regular online game, so if you want to win consistently, you need to stick with the sports you know something about. It’s a game of skill, remember?

Doing it any way he chooses, Sagan wins Tour’s latest stage
Published 12:01 pm Tuesday, July 19, 2016
BERN, Switzerland — Peter Sagan can win practically any way he chooses: Breakaways, sprints, fearless downhill attacks, and now a bike throw at the line.
The world champion from Slovakia showed off his all-around qualities by perfectly timing a sprint to win the 16th stage of the Tour de France in a photo finish on Monday.

Sagan edged Alexander Kristoff of Norway at the line after the race crossed into Switzerland.
Kristoff thought he won and pumped his fist in celebration, only to learn seconds later he hadn’t.
“I was lucky I threw my bike,” Sagan said. “I was certain I would finish second. … Alexander made his jump very late on the line.”
Chris Froome held on to the yellow jersey after a relatively calm day for the overall leader before the race’s second and final rest day.
Froome got animated when he was asked about Sagan.
“Phenomenal rider,” Froome said of the long-haired rider with the Tinkoff team. “Most people in the peloton are scared of him, just his abilities. He can do everything. He chooses when he wants to go in the breakaway, how he wants to ride the finish.”
Froome profited from Sagan’s abilities by following him into a breakaway in Stage 11 to gain time on all of the other overall contenders.

My Boyfriend went from fatty to fitty while I was on holiday
TEARS rolled down my face as I planted another soggy kiss on my boyfriend’s chubby cheek.
Saying goodbye before my holiday was much harder then I’d imagined it would be. But then this was no ordinary holiday.
In the morning I was flying to Ecuador, in South America. Away for almost three months, I was going to miss my boyfriend of five years Stuart Vaughn like mad.
And at almost 25 stone, there was a lot of him to miss.
‘I’ll call as often as I can,’ I sniffed, prizing myself out of his giant hug for the final time.
But the truth was the villages I’d be visiting were pretty remote and there was unlikely to be any connection.
I’d been so excited about talking a gap year between studies after finishing my degree in marketing at university. But right now I wanted nothing more than to stay cuddled up with my Big Stu forever.
You see he wasn’t just my boyfriend, but my best friend too.
We’d met when I’d joined the sixth form college where Stuart was already studying.
Being the new girl in town wasn’t easy, but kind and caring, Stuart had taken me under his wing.
Known as Big Stu, he was one of the most popular guys in college and it wasn’t hard to see why. With his larger than life personality he was great fun to be around and good looking too.
Within weeks we became a couple. Weighing almost 21 stone, his size didn’t bother me at all and it didn’t seem to bother him either. It was just part of who he was.
Only as the months turned into years Stuart’s weight began to creep up. ‘I don’t get it,’ he shrugged, ‘ I don’t even eat that much.’
I had to agree. We’d met for lunch at college most days and he always had a sandwich or roll and a soup like me. I assumed his weight must be genetic.
I’ve always been sporty and tried to encourage Stuart to come running with me, but he wasn’t interested.
It wasn’t that I wanted him to lose weight; I loved him as he was, I just wanted him to be healthy.
So when in January 2012 weeks before I left for South America, Stuart mentioned going on a diet again, I didn’t think much about it.
Since we’d been together Stuart had tried lots of diets, but never managed to stick to any.
And soon we were saying that tearful goodbye.
After two flights I arrived in Ecuador where I was devastated to learn the mobile I had taken with me didn’t work.
It meant I would only be able to call or email Stuart when I went into the capitol.
It was hard, but I threw myself into the volunteer work I’d signed up for teaching English to local kids and helping in an animal rescue centre.
It was several weeks before I managed to speak to Stuart. ‘ I’m missing you so much, ‘ I told him, filling him in on everything I’d been doing.
‘How’s the diet going babe?’ I asked him. ‘Oh I’ve given up,’ he sighed before steering the conversation back to me again.
As the end of my trip drew nearer I started to picture being reunited with Stuart at the airport.
After nearly three months apart I couldn’t wait to launch myself into his big strong arms and bury myself in his cuddly chest.
‘It’ll be like a scene out of a film,’ I laughed during our final call before flying home.
Only as I stumbled out into arrivals bleary eyed after my two- day trip I scanned the sea of faces. I immediately spotted my sister waving a sign with my name on, and next to her my step mum. But there was no sign of Stuart.
Only then I did a double take. Was my tired mind playing tricks ? The guy stood with my family looked like Stuart, only it couldn’t be him…
Dazed and confused I looked away trying to get my head around what was going on ? After three months away I was desperate to see my boyfriend only this guy looked like a thinner imposter. This wasn’t the reunion I’d imagined at all.
Stuart’s face fell as he saw the confusion on mine.
‘You look so different, I wasn’t expecting this, ‘ I stammered taking in his trendy new outfit, denim shirt and chinos. Even his hair was different. There was no sign of the Stuart I’d left behind.
Only in the car on the way back to my house, out of sheer exhaustion I rested my head on his lap. As he gently stroked the back of my head, it started to feel like the old Stuart was back.
‘I’ve missed you so much,’ I said as we perched on the edge of my bed at home still struggling to take in this super fit handsome guy was really my boyfriend.
‘I’m sorry about my reaction at the airport, I was shocked, I felt like I didn’t know you because you looked so different.’
Stuart smiled. I thought he was good looking before, but now he looked drop dead gorgeous. ‘ I wanted to surprise you by losing weight while you were away.
‘Being apart made me realised how much I love you and you deserve a healthy fit boyfriend.’
I sat in shock. Stuart had lost all that weight for me.
I couldn’t believe he had found the willpower to stick to a diet at last but Stuart explained that wanting to surprise me had helped him stick to a plan.
Finally he admitted that as well as the healthy meals he ate in front of me, he’d been binge eating in secret too, scoffing multi-pack bags of crisps and kitkats after college and sneaky take outs late at night. ‘ I could eat 14 packets of crisps and eight kitkats in on go,’ he explained.
‘I had no idea,’ I gasped, still struggling to take in how gorgeous he looked.
As the weeks followed I wondered if Stuart would fall off the wagon now I was back home, but he stuck to his diet and started working out too. Soon he’d lost even more weight.
‘You have an amazing body, I told him proudly a few months later,
I don’t even mind when other women eye him up , I can hardly blame them after all.
The only downside is Stuart is now fitter than me and always beats me when we go running, but it’s a small price to pay to have such a gorgeous boyfriend.

We all have to begin somewhere in life.
I have spent a large part of my younger life as a BBFA so I know that BBFAs have a strong affinity with the Financial Independence Movement.
Once of the core strengths of the BBFA is that they are not constrained by society’s judgement on their approach towards financial planning. This gives them the freedom to work towards building a pile of Fuck You Money without society making them feel bad for doing it.
One very effective way to achieve your financial goals is by gamification, so I decided to imagine what the BBFA RPG would roughly look like.
A BBFA’s prime attribute is Intelligence. BBFA’s generally have no use for Charisma.
The level advancement table should look like this.
Level Title Portfolio Size Passive Income / Month 1 Keyboard Warrior $- $- 2 MMORPG Maven $20,000.00 $100.00 3 Data Hog $40,000.00 $200.00 4 Gian Png Kia

James Lovelock, the inventor of the Gaia hypothesis (that life on Earth functions as a complex system), has for years been an environmentalist’s pet scientist. Lately he made a few remarks that sounded skeptical to some, and now he’s turning into the skeptics’ pet. They should think again. Here’s what he says in The Guardian about skeptics:
They’ve got their own religion. They believe that the world was right before these damn people [the greens] came along and want to go back to where we were 20 years ago. That’s also silly in its own way. I don’t see how any true scientist could be either a believer or a denier. The term “sceptic” has been hijacked, too.
I could not agree more. I recently had a discussion with a friend who I understand to be skeptical about monetary valuation of nature. She answered “I’m not skeptical, I happen to have good arguments.” What have we come to now that “skepticism” has taken on the meaning “refusing to believe despite overwhelming evidence”?
Lovelock also makes some good remarks on environmentalism, shale gas, and climate change.

This past weekend I went on a float trip down the Illinois River with my USA Stars Jiu-jitsu family and some friends.
There are lots of things that fascinates me in this city. But most of all magic is what attracts me to come back over and over again.
This weekend my daughter and I took our first trip up to Tahlequah, OK to float on the Illinois River like so many Oklahomans before us – and it was a lot fun!
I have been to the Wichita Wildlife Refuge many times, but never made it up to Mt. Scott. Until today!
It was a damn long day. I woke up few times and fell asleep again. I had nightmares about my shitty life that I wasted in a large, empty dark castle with numerous tombs. Oh … hey, it’s not a nightmare – this is my reality. I woke up and flew away from my favorite,…
My husband, daughter and I went on a weekend adventure with a small group to Lake Thunderbird in Norman, OK for some eagle watching!
My Uncle (Wandering World Walkabout) came into town for a few days and we took a hike in the Oklahoma Wichita Mountains.

Statistically Scorpio tattoo designs are looked for more than any other astrological sign, to understand why; we have to delve into some of your traits.
As a sign you have enormous reserves of energy. This can be presented in either a positive or negative way. Positively this makes you a very big achiever as you're literally driven to get what ever it is you want. This energy used negatively, however, makes you brooding, secretive, resentful and dark.
You'll fluctuate between these, I'm sure. But fundamentally you are very deep and mysterious compared to us other 11 signs! But as far as the latest popular art work on tattoo galleries is concerned, Scorpios are very good customers!
A sample of top tattoo designs around at the moment include:
I'm sure that some of those will appeal to you. Of course there are thousands more than that to choose from.
Your own astrological symbol is the scorpion and many Scorpio tattoo designs incorporate this, as well as the astrological glyph (which is basically the letter M with a curled up last leg with an arrow head on it, symbolizing the sting in the tail!)
The latest tribal, Celtic & Goth artwork looks fantastic with this symbolism.
But, don't just take my word for it.

Erupting from the statues in unlikely places, water creates a motion that gives Chodakowska’s sculptures a human-like presence and somehow feels sort of magical. “It takes me up to 2-6 months to complete a sculpture, depending on its complexity. My fountains spread the pure joy of life, combining the element of water with the raw material – bronze.” The creation of this stunning artwork starts by modelling it out of clay. Then to turn it into fountain, the sculptor pours these sculptures into bronze. Endless streams of water perfectly complete each figure with a story, which you’re now invited to check out for yourself.

My favorite time of the week is one most Penn students reserve for nursing their hangovers.
If it’s 10:30 on a weekend morning, you can often find me dressed, downtown and drinking. Oh, and watching football — you know, that sport where you use your foot to kick a ball? The one most of you call soccer? You’ll probably think it’s an attempt to relive my junior year abroad in London, or just to spend even more of my days in a caffeine and alcohol fueled haze, but this is what happens when you care enough about football in Philly. The four–hour time difference (at least) between here and the games in Europe necessitates dragging myself out of bed while the sun is over the Delaware, popping some Advil to kill my hangover and showing up at that bastion of sporting neutrality, the Irish pub, with one or two other equally committed guys.
I don’t have a team in England, not one that will be shown on an American TV anyway. But the reasons for all these mornings go well beyond just blind support of a team. I’ve followed football since high school, so in London it was never that football seemed exotic to me. Indeed, it was the opposite: it felt normal, felt like home.
Nowadays my friends are left pondering why I can’t just come back to the cozier realms of baseball and American college football instead of shouting at them to be heard from a culture away. Most seem surprised it’s not a relic that I’d let fade out, like the bad accent they thought I’d come back with (I didn’t).
I know I’m not alone in this — students who immersed themselves in Parisian cafe culture return to find their friends choosing between Saxby’s and Starbucks, while all they can ask themselves is, does it even matter? There’s a sense of monotony, of unoriginality pervasive in University City, that it so often seems only we who return understand. Everyone else seems to look at us and wonder what we left behind when we made the trip home.
For me, though, that disconnect seems to end after walking through that door on weekend mornings, where Fox Soccer Channel blares on the other side, and I can talk about the Carling Cup without having to couch it in a putrid melting pot of mixed American sports metaphors. Regardless of who they root for, I share a kinship with everyone who walks through that door, my brother–in–arms for the day. It’s like that club we all wanted to make with our friends in elementary school. It just has better beer.
So here’s my latest offer of explanation: come join me to watch a game at Fado on 15th Street. I’ll be the guy with the empty coffee and the full pint, chowing down a hangover sandwich and loudly, obscenely praying that United concede another goal.

It was great to have the one and only Joe Kye and the Givers back in Sacramento at The Sofia. (04/13/19)
Photos by Paul Piazza the @beetseekingmissile
Born in Korea and raised in Seattle, singer/composer/violinist-looper Joe Kye has drawn rave reviews in his relatively fledgling career, “discharging world[s] of emotion” and delivering “divine messages” with his lush string loops and eclectic style (Guitar World). Drawing upon his migrant upbringing throughout Asia and the US, Kye blends indie-rock, jazz, classical, pop, and world folk to create a unique sound that “leaves everyone in awe” (Sac News and Review). With his innovative use of digital effects and looping, Kye weaves together diverse textures, catchy melodies, and rich, sweet vocals to create soundscapes that groove, uplift, and empower listeners: “A single violinist…one mesmerizing symphony” (Sacramento Bee).
Following the release of his acclaimed 2015 EP, Joseph in the Well, Kye has been touring the United States with recent performances opening for world-renown cellist Yo-Yo Ma and Senator Bernie Sanders, along with a featured performance at California WorldFest. Previous collaborations include the Seattle Repertory Jazz Orchestra, the Sacramento Ballet, Alvin Ailey Composer/Percussionist William Catanzaro, original Wailer Devon Evans, and LA hip-hop artist Jason Chu. Kye has performed in venues like Benaroya Hall (Seattle), Community Center Theater (TEDx Sacramento), NAMM MainStage (Anaheim), the Baryshnikov Arts Center (NYC), and the White House. Kye is a Fishman sponsored artist.
Kye is currently planning an Asia tour and working on his new album, Migrants, slated for release in early 2017.

Syrian Rebel Fighting Closes Damascus-Jordan Highway
Syrian rebels seized a military base in the north of the country while heavy fighting with government forces closed a highway connecting Damascus with Jordan.
Rebels and Arab fighters from Jabhat al-Nusra, designated a terrorist group by the U.S., overcame three brigades and a command center of the 111th regiment west of Aleppo yesterday, the U.K.-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on its Facebook page.
President Bashar al-Assad’s military has failed to prevent rebels from overrunning army bases, taking heavy weapons and seizing oilfields across the country. Fighters struggling to topple the government in Damascus have control of mainly Sunni Muslim towns and suburbs stretching from the northeastern outskirts of the capital to the southwest of the city.
The 20-month conflict, sparked by protests across the Arab world that led to the fall of leaders in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya, has claimed at least 40,000 deaths, according to the Observatory. More than 30 people died in Syria yesterday.
The situation “is bad and getting worse,” United Nations Special Envoy on Syria Lakhdar Brahimi said yesterday in Geneva, where he held talks with U.S. Undersecretary of State William Burns and Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov.
The rebels’ Free Syrian Army elected a new military command yesterday, replacing Colonel Riad al-Asaad with Brigadier General Salim Idris, al-Arabiya television reported.
Idris told al-Arabiya in a telephone interview that the new command was elected by hundreds of rebels because “we are the real fighters on the ground, they decided to choose who leads them in the battle against Bashar al-Assad.”
Throughout the country, 95 people were killed yesterday, including 30 in or around Damascus, the opposition Local Coordination Committees said in an e-mailed statement.
In Syria-related violence, fighting between Lebanese Sunnis supporting the revolution and Shiites who back Syrian President Bashar al-Assad escalated yesterday in Tripoli where both sides began using rockets to target each other, al-Jazeera television reported.
While the U.S.’s call for a change of leadership in Damascus has long been at odds with Russia’s support of Assad’s regime, their positions are now more aligned, Qatar’s Prime Minister Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jabr Al Thani told reporters yesterday in Doha. The fall of the regime is “imminent” and the Syrian people will only accept a change of government, he said.
Numair Ghanem, the Syrian ambassador to Algeria, is seeking political asylum in France, Al-Arabiya television reported, citing activists. An unidentified Syrian government official denied the defection.
Ghanem would be one of the most senior officials to defect since August, when Prime Minister Riad Hijab fled to Jordan and denounced Assad’s regime as the “enemy of God.” Assad has struggled to maintain the cohesion of the government as the violent conflict drags on, destabilizing the economy.
Fighters ousted government forces from the command center at Sheikh Sleiman yesterday after clashes overnight, the Syrian Observatory said. Two rebels and one soldier died, while 140 government soldiers fled to another base in the area, the group said. Fighting stopped traffic on the road running from the Jordanian border to Damascus, Al Arabiya said.

Mice caught snacking on treats at Queen Street sweet shop
Joshua Freeman, CTV News Toronto
Published Sunday, July 16, 2017 8:54PM EDT
Last Updated Monday, July 17, 2017 9:18AM EDT
A business owner says she plans to ramp up her efforts to fight rodents after shocked passersby spotted a pair of mice going to town on some treats in a store window at a Queen Street baklava shop late Saturday.
“It was disgusting because when I looked more I saw some mouse feces around the trays,” said Mohammad Valipour, who caught the mice on a video taken with his cellphone.
Speaking with CTV News Toronto Sunday, one of the owners of Meli baklava and chocolate bar said the mice were sniffing around a display of baklava that isn't served to customers.
“We cover everything, those are strictly for display, we would never serve anything that's not fresh,” Julie Kyriakaki said.
Kyriakaki said she has mousetraps all around the store, because the rodents have been an ongoing problem at the building, which is occupied by multiple food vendors.
“There's the racks there that they come under and through, and unfortunately or fortunately, this is a shared space and we can't block it,” Kyriakaki said.
The building property manager said Sunday that there are pest inspections once a month, and on an as-needed basis. However he said a notice will be issued to tenants not to leave food out at night.
But Kyriakaki said she’s not convinced that will stop the mice from roaming the countertops.
“Even if I didn't have food there, the mice would still be on the window because they go everywhere,” she said.
Other vendors in the building told CTV News that they have also had trouble keeping the mice at bay.
The baklava store passed its last city health inspection on February 6 and has a five-star rating on Yelp, but Kyriakaki said she will still be making changes going forward.
“We will cover even all the food that's exposed for display and we will pressure the management to take more measures,” she said.

Scientists previously theorized an electrical circuit should exist at Saturn. After analyzing data that Cassini collected in 2008, scientists saw a glowing patch of ultraviolet light emissions near Saturn's north pole that marked the presence of a circuit, even though the moon is 240,000 kilometers (150,000 miles) away from the planet.
The patch occurs at the end of a magnetic field line connecting Saturn and its moon Enceladus. The area, known as an auroral footprint, is the spot where energetic electrons dive into the planet's atmosphere, following magnetic field lines that arc between the planet's north and south polar regions.
"The footprint discovery at Saturn is one of the most important fields and particle revelations from Cassini and ultimately may help us understand Saturn's strange magnetic field," said Marcia Burton, a Cassini fields and particles scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. "It gives us the first visual connection between Saturn and one of its moons."
The auroral footprint measures approximately 1,200 kilometers (750 miles) by less than 400 kilometers (250 miles), covering an area comparable to California or Sweden. At its brightest, the footprint shone with an ultraviolet light intensity far less than Saturn's polar auroral rings, but comparable to the faintest aurora visible at Earth without a telescope in the visible light spectrum. Scientists have not found a matching footprint at the southern end of the magnetic field line.
"Cassini fields and particles instruments found particle beams aligned with Saturn's magnetic field near Enceladus, and scientists started asking if we could see an expected ultraviolet spot at the end of the magnetic field line on Saturn," said Wayne Pryor, a lead author of the Nature study released today, and Cassini co-investigator at Central Arizona College in Coolidge, Ariz. "We were delighted to find the glow close to the 'bulls-eye' at the center of our target."
In 2008, Cassini detected a beam of energetic protons near Enceladus aligned with the magnetic field and field-aligned electron beams. A team of scientists analyzed the data and concluded the electron beams had sufficient energy flux to generate a detectable level of auroral emission at Saturn. A few weeks later, Cassini captured images of an auroral footprint in Saturn's northern hemisphere. In 2009, a group of Cassini scientists led by Donald Gurnett at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, detected more complementary signals near Enceladus consistent with currents that travel from the moon to the top of Saturn's atmosphere, including a hiss-like sound from the magnetic connection. That paper was published in March in Geophysical Research Letters.
The water cloud above the Enceladus jets produces a massive, ionized "plasma" cloud through its interactions with the magnetic bubble around Saturn. This cloud disturbs the magnetic field lines. The footprint appears to flicker in these new data, so the rate at which Enceladus is spewing particles may vary.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. JPL, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. The Cassini orbiter and several of its instruments were designed, developed and assembled at JPL.

Washington DC based rock band The Relapse Symphony just released their third full length album Born to Burn. By the Barricade dropped by the Vans Warped tour in Pomona California to talk to the band about the new release and their future plans. Check out all the info in the transcripts below!
Bret Von Dehl: Vocals
JC Charles: Guitar
I’ve seen in previous interviews that The Relapse Symphony are a “split between old school punk kids and metalheads”, But I wouldn’t have guessed that at first glance. What set you down this musical path?
JC: Bret and I grew up playing in punk rock bands. I had my first east coast run in a street punk band when I was 14. That’s who we are and we listen to everything. We write what at we like and I like catchy choruses. Street punk is kind of catchy but we like borrowing from everything we grew up with. Some of us love punk rock, some of us love pop punk, and some of us love metal, 70’s glam, and some gothy stuff. We like some of the same things we bring this to the table. With Born to Burn we had a lot more control. Everyone who has heard it has said it sounds more like our live show and the band they know.
Born to Burn was produced with produced by Sean Small at Truitt Studios. Were there any instances where he pulled the band in a different direction?
Bret: With Born to Burn we had so much control.
JC: We were trying to find the band’s direction with Shadows. Our producers were really good at facilitating that but it’s often a lot stronger when you know what you are going for.
JC: He was so hands off it actually scared me. The first week we went into the studio I was asking him questions and he would just say “It’s your record man”. At first I was scared but I went home and realized this was a really good opportunity. It was amazing to have so much band involvement with everything. Bret did a lot of work with the drums and we all played bass on it. We were also making up vocal parts on the spot. It felt like a family thing where everyone was involved.
Bret: Even down to the artwork, we did a lot of that ourselves.
I’ve heard Born to Burn is “Louder, Heavier, and more pissed off than ever before”. What are some technical tweaks you brought into recording this that makes that more pronounced?
JC: Being in a slightly lower toning opened up a world of opportunities for us. We were able to do things we’ve never tried before. Bret was able to sing in a style he hadn’t attempted before also. On top of that our other guitarist Ray Miller wasn’t a part of Shadows and he was a big part of writing Born to Burn. He has solos on this that will blow people’s minds. We also went through a lot as a band and we were legitimately pissed off which made for a really angry record.
I’ve heard “A Perfect Lie” and really like the way it turned out. I hear a lot of melodic vocals on top of really heavy instrumentals. Did you start with instrumentals or lyrics?
JC With that song I had a verse and Ray had a riff. We had those two pieces for a long time before we came up with the chorus. To tie it together we threw a crazy bridge in there. Sometimes songs happen all at once but that was one of those puzzle piece songs. Throughout the recording process the second verse changed a lot.
Was a lot of Born to Burn written in pieces?
JC: We wrote a lot enough material for three records. We just continued writing because everything we wrote got better than the last song and we didn’t want to stop. Eventually we were happy where we were at and headed into the studio.
“Time’s Running Out” was originally writing acoustically. Did that lead to the acoustic version of Shadows?
JC: With the Shadows Acoustic Record we wanted to put music out and we knew we weren’t going to be doing another full length for a while. We Challenged ourselves to strip the band down and we wanted to do raw vocals with a couple guitar tracks with a harmony here and there keeping it as close to live and raw as possible. It was fun to try but my favorite part is that we did that record in a different tuning to make the songs sound darker and We use that tuning now with Born to Burn.
Do you have any plans for an acoustic version of Born to Burn?
JC: We don’t know yet. Everyone who has heard it so far has been so positive. As far as the future goes we want to continue releasing singles. Nowadays there’s so much music out there that people move on. I want to release three more singles off this record but right now we are in record release mode so maybe down the road. It would be fun to do a punk rock covers EP with Bret to show a different side of ourselves.
I’ve head The Relapse Symphony say they’ve had a lot of really good opportunities. What would you consider your first big break?
JC: Some of our friends are in Black Veil Brides and they put us on The Church of the Wild Ones Tour. We got to play our second and third show in front of 25,000 people. That really set the tone of how seriously we were going to take The Relapse Symphony. It usually takes a few shows to see if everything comes together, but with this band everything seemed to just click and that really helped us out.
That’s awesome! I really appreciate the humility and how engaged The Relapse Symphony has been on social media. It really means a lot.
JC: Thanks! I never really thought about how had it will be to stay connected out on the Warped Tour. We’re always busy running around and our phones are always dying but we’ll do our best to stay connected throughout the summer.
Is there anything else you want to say to the readers of By the Barricade?
Bret: Thanks for the interview! Check out Born to Burn. We’ve got some big plans so be sure to stay tuned.
