Food writer and recipe developer Grace Elkus recently shared a video of how to make feta fried eggs, racking up millions of views across social media.
“You'll thank me next time you're hangry,” she writes in the caption.
The dish resonated well online partly because of its simplicity. It only takes five minutes to cook using staple pantry ingredients.
Elkus said she was inspired by cookbook author Ali Slagle's crispy potato, egg and cheese taco recipe from I Dream of Dinner. She tweaked it by using feta cheese instead of potato.
5-minute feta fried eggs: you’ll thank me next time you’re hangry 🍳 Inpired by Ali Slagle’s potato, egg, and cheese tacos 🧀 Heat small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crumble in feta around perimeter. Crack egg into center; season w/ black pepper & red pepper flakes (no need to add salt, the feta is plenty salty) Cover pan and cook until white is set, yolk is still runny, and cheese is unbelievably crispy. Serve atop toast, w/ hash browns, or my personal fave: in a charred tortilla with avocado & lime. You can oil the skillet, esp. if you’re not using nonstick, but I find the cheese gets crispier w/o More tips on my IG @graceelkus #friedeggs #feta
The dish is essentially fried eggs with feta crumbled around the edges, seasoned with black pepper and red pepper flakes. Elkus suggests forgoing salt as the cheese adds enough seasoning.
She recommends cooking it on a small non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
“Cover pan and cook until white is set, yolk is still runny, and cheese is unbelievably crispy,” she adds.
It can be served on top of toast with hash browns or, as Elkus does, on a charred tortilla with avocado and lime.

This year the Eclipse IoT Working Group partnered with IEEE IoT and theAGILE-IoT research project to expand the scope and respondent pool for the survey. Thanks to this partnership, we had 528 participants in the survey, up from 392 last year. The partnership also allowed us to analyze the data to look for any significant difference between the different IoT communities.
What options do you have for remotely monitoring water and fluids with Industrial IoT sensor telemetry?
By Pawei Sasik
IIoT or Industrial IoT (Internet of Things) is everywhere. It’s across all industries, from high tech transport, to natural resources and governments. IIoT software and hardware is deployed for numerous, varying applications, and it’s critical to understand just what the customer needs. One of the areas that we’ve seen recent growth is water and fluid monitoring. Water comes to us as a life sustaining asset and also as a force of destruction. The utility of water needs to be measured and monitored in order to effectively and efficiently use our greatest natural resource. Similarly, monitoring the destructive force of water can be just as important. Let’s talk about the different ways that you can measure and monitor water!

The other day, I got into a Facebook argument over the fairness of a progressive income tax and means-testing of the retirement income assurance system (e.g. Social Security and IRAs). When faced with the assertion that it is unfair to discriminate against relatively wealthy citizens, I responded that true impartiality is impossible given that the state does anything, and therefore the closest thing to fairness is to provide income support to the least well-off members of society.
This is essentially Rawls' "maximin" criterion. As I superficially understand it, Rawls took this as an a priori principle of fairness, and used it as justification for extensive state intervention in a fundamentally free-market (liberal) economy. I want to look at it from the perspective where the state has already intervened in the economy, and we use the maximin principle as a way to minimize the unfairness of the outcome. This is similar to Kevin Carson's maxim that the state "breaks our legs and then gives us crutches", and that we must keep the crutches until our legs have healed. For the sincere statist, this can be seen as a principle of fairness; but for the ruling class managers, it can be seen as a social engineering paradigm to minimize the number of individuals who are willing to rebel despite exploitation.
I start with the premise that every state action produces winners and losers. This is true even if most state actions are positive-sum interventions. To neo-liberal economists, positive-sum interventions should be pursued whenever possible without consideration of fairness, because some of the excess produce can (ideally) be redistributed to the losers to achieve Pareto efficiency. The problem is that it's impossible to identify the winners and losers of each action. Given a large population and a large number of interventions, there will be some people who have repeatedly been on the losing end of these interventions, to the point that their ability to make a living (or save for retirement) has been crippled. Abandoning these people to poverty would be a great injustice.
In this context, we can only observe and manipulate the outcomes. Some people will have done very well for themselves -- through a mixture of effort, benefiting from state policies, and luck (i.e. everything else) -- while others will have done poorly. If we were to select the people who have the least success at life, we would probably also be selecting the people who have been harmed the most by state policies, along with those who exerted the least effort and were otherwise the most unlucky. As such, the provision of an economic safety net can be a strategy for mitigating the cumulative unfairness of those who lose out due to numerous state policies. To take it further, if we're asking the state to compel citizens to provide public goods, then we've already accepted the premise that "we're all in this together", and an economic safety net is justified as a way to mitigate bad luck (which is more in line with the Rawlsian idea).
A typical conservative rejection to the above argument may be that very few (if any) people have been impoverished by the policies that have allowed others to become wealthy, and that differences in effort account for the vast majority of the differences in economic success. For instance, they may say that tax rates on poor people are low, so that even if someone doesn't benefit from state spending, they still have not been crippled by it. Likewise, they may assert that the per-person economic costs of interventions like copyright are minimal, either because they believe that culture would collapse in the absence of copyright or because they believe copyrighted items are essentially frivolous luxuries. While I would point to mass-incarceration for victimless crimes as an example of how state policies "for the greater good" can impoverish some individuals, conservatives would likely assert that the criminal activity (e.g. illegal drug use) was bound to leave the prisoner destitute anyway, or that the criminalization of this activity was only a minor imposition on the criminal, and that their poverty is due to their choice to disobey legitimate authority. Many of the other policies that increase living expenses and depress incomes are so complicated that tracing cause and effect is nearly impossible. Suffice to say, I think that they are sufficient to impoverish many people, through the cumulative effect of many small burdens.
To solidify this viewpoint, I turn to a theory of the exploitative state. The first component of this theory is that while some state actions are positive-sum, many are zero-sum or even negative-sum. The reason that such outcomes are common is that political power is unevenly distributed among the population, and the determinant of state action is that it benefits the powerful -- not that it benefits the population as a whole.
This imbalance of power has a consequence that is even more important than the existence of negative-sum outcomes -- it biases the outcomes such that some people (the powerful) systematically win, while others systematically lose. This scenario does not even require that the powerful consciously exploit the powerless, only that they obstruct any policy that hurts them and promote policies that help themselves (regardless of their impact on the powerless). In this environment, the gains and losses of government action pile up and account for a substantial amount of the wealth variation in the population.
Given this systematic transfer of wealth from the powerless to the powerful (and the consequent construction of both a wealthy and an impoverished class), a person concerned with fairness should not be too bothered by policies that appear to exploit the rich. While an excessively populist attitude can be leveraged by the agents of the state to stuff their own pockets and intimidate critics, adding a clearly defined progressive component to a tax system does not facilitate such shake-downs. By shifting the tax burden from the poor to the rich, we can mitigate the systematic unfairness of government actions. It's only a superficial solution, but it definitely is not the problem.

Antonshill Primary School
St.Bernadette’s Primary School at Antonshill, Stenhousemuir is a new single storey denominational primary school serving over 10,000 households in the surrounding area.
The design by Falkirk Council is both distinctive and sustainable with extensive use of primary colours on the external walls. The external play area was designed to be as bright and cheerful as the main building and the well known landscape contractors Hardscape carried out the work. They used grey granite paving setts interspersed with Craftstone’s bespoke Crystalpave setts in the same primary colours as used on the main building.
The finished project is a unique, inspirational and welcoming external space to be enjoyed by all those schoolchildren who attend on a daily basis.

Hi, I'm Frosina and I will be telling you about how Macedonian language spread.
Wait for meee!!
Macedonian language was first spoken in the 1st Millennium BC and belongs to Indo-European language family. Baa-
Macedonian language belongs to the eastern part of Europe of the South Slavic branch of Slavic languages.
Since our language used to be similar to Bulgarian language, people started spreading it with nearby countries like Serbia for example.
I wait I am good boy :).
Dude has that cute dog been following me this whole time?
Most of Eastern Europe used to be a whole combined country called Yugoslavia. Since politics began to form we split up into different countries having a similar language.
I still wait :)
Oh my god your so adorable how did I not notice? I'm gonna call you... Sharko!
C'mon let's gooo I'm bored
Anyways the main folk elements of this language is folk music and folk dancing. This is because there would be folklore groups from different regions in Macedonia, and having different music or dances.

Several whale species were severely affected by the whaling industry in the Antarctic. International Whaling Commission (IWC) was established in 1948. In the 1960s blue and humpback whales were fully protected, protection that was then extended to fin and sei whales in the 1970s. In 1986 the IWC suspended all commercial whaling. Many whale populations have shown signs of recovery and have returned to Antarctic waters since then. Whales like all large animals are slow breeders, the world population of whales is still far below what it is thought to have been before human whaling activities. For blue whales for instance, the generation time is about 31 years, and the current world population is estimated at 10,00 - 25,000, this is 3 - 11% of the pre-1911 population when industrial whaling with explosive harpoons and fast catcher boats started. The remains of the whaling industry can still be seen on South Georgia Island today.

Dramatic weight loss, chest pain and difficulty eating eventually led on Upper Peninsula man to Michigan Medicine, where he received a revolutionary new surgery.
John Wils sounded like a sewer pipe in his sleep. There was a thunderous churning stemming from what his wife, Pamela, thought was his stomach.
But the cause was ingested food and liquids caught in his esophagus.
Wils, 67, was soon diagnosed with achalasia, a rare disorder when the nerves in the esophagus degenerate — causing the muscle to stop working, preventing the normal emptying of food into the stomach, thereby leading to regurgitation, chest discomfort and, in some cases, weight loss.
Otherwise healthy, Wils abruptly developed every symptom: difficulty eating, sleep disruption because of regurgitation, pain in his chest and substantial weight loss — about 35 pounds in less than two months. His 5-foot, 11-inch frame went from 175 pounds to 140 pounds.
He vomited everything he put into his mouth, even sips of water.
"He was dying in front of my eyes," says Pamela Wils.
The couple visited hospitals near their Upper Peninsula home before a gastroenterologist in Marquette, Michigan, told them about a new surgery that could fix his issue. Michigan Medicine was one of only a few hospitals in the state performing peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM).
POEM is a scarless, minimally-invasive procedure completed during an upper endoscopy rather than through an incision, offering a quicker recovery without stitches. A scope passes through the mouth to the lower esophageal sphincter, where an endoscopist alters muscle fibers to open the sphincter, allowing food to pass through to the stomach due to gravity.
Pamela Wils quickly booked an appointment and packed her husband into the car for the seven-hour drive from Rapid River to Ann Arbor.
Options to treat achalasia
Michigan Medicine gastroenterologist Ryan Law, D.O., and thoracic surgeon Andrew Chang, M.D., met with the couple in mid-January and scheduled the procedure for one month later.
"John is a stoic individual and downplayed what he experienced, but we knew he had been through a lot to get to this point," Law says.
Wils had led an active life on the shores of Lake Michigan. The retired operating engineer, who steered back hoes and other construction equipment for a living, is a fisherman, house painter and dog walker for three golden retrievers, averaging 5,000 steps a day.
Achalasia robbed him of nutrition and the energy he got from food.
The disorder affects 3,000 people in the United States annually and can strike anyone at any age. While there is no cure for achalasia, treatments like POEM help patients return to health.
Wils had received a Botox injection from his Marquette gastroenterologist to relax the muscles of the lower esophageal sphincter. But Botox only affords three to six months of relief, in many cases. Another temporary treatment, pneumatic dilatation, involves using a balloon to dilate and stretch the muscles of the lower esophagus.
Before POEM, a Heller myotomy was the surgical standard treatment. It's a similar procedure where the muscles of the esophagus are cut laparoscopically via several small incisions in the abdomen, Law says.
Wils only concern going into the procedure? That the doctors said he might remain unable to eat two of his favorite foods to grill: steak and pork chops. "I knew I'd be able to eat them someday," he quips.
Andrew Chang, M.D., and Ryan Law, M.D., show off their homemade cards from Wils' wife, Pamela. She creates cards every week for her friends, family and customers. "The card was special because they saved John's life. We are so thankful," she says.
POEM preparation and recovery
The month before the procedure, Wils lived carefully. The doctors feared he may get the winter's wicked Influenza A, which could postpone the surgery, so they suggested he avoid others who may have germs.
The couple skipped church and avoided their traditional Saturday night dinner with friends. Ice fishing and their hot tub became their sources of relaxation.
Three days before surgery, Wils replaced food with liquids to prepare.
A typical POEM takes 90 minutes to complete, Law says. Wils' procedure was nearly two-and-a-half hours.
"His anatomy was somewhat odd, with thicker muscle than we normally see in the distal esophagus. We almost quit during the procedure until we re-evaluated what we had done and readjusted to work with his anatomy," Law says. But in the end, it went well.
After the procedure, Wils reported no pain and walked the hospital halls until he left the following day, after swallowing contrast for an X-ray study to make sure everything was working. POEM patients should only have clear liquids the first day, full liquids for the next three days, and then only soft, mushy foods until a clinic follow-up appointment 10 to 14 days later for most patients, a month in Wils' case.
Because Wils lives seven hours away, he had a video conference follow-up with Dr. Chang while with his family health care provider, who did an exam and blood work.
He was prescribed Prilosec to treat acid reflux. Wils will take it for at least the next six months.
Just three days after surgery, Wils was feeling so well he was able to rip out the floor at his mother-in-law's house.
After a few weeks, he returned to a regular diet. By St. Patrick's Day, Wils was ready to try his luck. What was on the menu? T-bone steak, the dense meat the doctors warned him about. He grilled on his deck, and ate it.
Law cautions this may not be the case for everyone. "Patients may never tolerate a totally normal diet, and certain foods may still be difficult." But he's happy to hear about Wils' good luck.
Wils can't recommend the procedure enough. He's already gained back 25 pounds.
"Life is fantastic," Wils says. "This procedure? It's a miracle."

Road: The main approach from London is the A22 and from the Channel Ports of Newhaven or Dover, the A259. The Brighton by-pass, the A27, provides a good journey from the West, while the M23/A23 and onto the A27 makes an alternative route from the M25. Road users travelling from the North and East can avoid London by using the M25 and the Dartford Tunnel. Approach Eastbourne’s north east side from the A21.
Coach: National Express coach services depart from London Victoria Coach Station. The journey from London to Eastbourne takes about two hours.
Rail: There are two trains from London Victoria every hour. It takes about 90 minutes.The main stops are at Clapham Junction, East Croydon, Gatwick Airport and Lewes. An hourly service links Eastbourne directly with Ashford International and the Channel Tunnel. Book your train tickets here and have them posted to you.
Air: London Gatwick International Airport is less than an hour away by direct rail link. Coach transfers or taxis can be arranged to complete the journey at the same time. Visitors arriving at London Heathrow Airport can travel into London to catch the mainline rail service from London Victoria.The journey by road takes less than two hours.
Ferry: Passengers can travel in to Newhaven or Dover from the continent. Newhaven is closest to Eastbourne taking just half an hour by road. The train takes longer as there is no direct link to Eastbourne from Newhaven. A change must be made at Lewes. From Dover the journey time to Eastbourne is approximately one and a half hours by road. The journey by rail requires a change at Hastings.


Lawyer Ousainu Darboe has warned President Adama Barrow to refrain from acts with potential to stir trouble.
Below is the transcript of Darboe’s speech delivered in Gunjur over the weekend:
I heard on social media that a commission of enquiry into conduct of local government administration…whatever. President Barrow, we would like to warn you. If you attempt to interfere with the supreme court judgement in the KMC, Talib Ahmed Bensouda and 54 others against the attorney general, you are making a mistake. We will not allow that in this country. Because you lost on that front, you think you can now come through the backdoor and try to interfere with the local government administration. That’s not going to happen here and if you and your people think that you can get interim orders from a nonsensical commission to stop our mayors and chairmen from performing their duties sanctioned by the supreme court and, you said that will not happen in this country. You are calling for trouble.
Section six of the Constitution says every Gambian has a duty to protect the Constitution of this country. The Constitution states that nobody has the power to overturn a court judgement, except through the courts. Supreme Court has delivered judgement that the mayors and chairmen should continue. And in fact, all councillors. If you think those people, calling themselves to be researchers and experts in local governance… If they mislead you until you want to institute a commission…in act of desperation, you say you want to set up a commission, I swear you are calling for trouble. UDP has always advocated for peace in this country but we also cannot accept the government, pushing down our throat something that you know should not happen. We are not calling for any violence but we are saying that we will resist and we will do what the Constitution calls for to be done in this country. You cannot try to set up a commission now. Why didn’t you do that two, three years ago when your minister of local government…when he didn’t know what to do and wanted to set up a commission of enquiry into KMC, they went to court and they realized that it wasn’t feasible. If you are really serious about matters, affecting local government administration in this country, that was the time you should have instituted it(commission). And in any case, Mr. President, you were elected to carry out major reforms in this country and those reforms include local government system in this country. Why haven’t you attempted anything seven years on? What are the faults?
Mr. President, if you think there was anything wrong with local government administration and it needs your attention, I thought you would have appointed team of experts to advise you rather than going on this nonsensical witch-hunting. And, its all witch-hunt but we are waiting for you. This is no political talk. This local government elections, we must show President Adama Barrow and his people that Gambians have rejected him. And, all his ploy will not work.

Vibration dampening refers to the introduction of materials or technology designed to reduce vibration produced in machines or systems. This technology can be used in a wide variety of settings for vibration control. For specialty applications, engineers can design a custom vibration damping system, while in other instances, people may use generic systems, products and materials, which can be fitted as kits to work with the system.
Vibration dampening is different from vibration isolation and vibration canceling. In each case, the goal is to address the oscillations which characterize vibration, and may also cause sounds as well. The control method which is most effective and appropriate varies depending on the needs of the system and the way in which the system is used.
With vibration dampening, the goal is to reduce vibration with shock absorption and other techniques. For example, on a factory floor, vibration dampening tiles might be used as vibration damping material on the floor to absorb vibration from equipment. Likewise, padding and other types of vibration damping material can be used as insulation fitted onto or around equipment to minimize the amount of vibration which occurs. Specialized vibration dampening mounts can also be used to fit equipment to the floor, bench, or wall in a way which will reduce vibration. Specific types of vibration can also be addressed with particular damping fittings.
What are the reasons for vibration dampening?
There are various reasons why vibration dampening is important. First and foremost it is important for worker health, safety, and comfort. Environments with excessive vibration levels can be unpleasant and potentially dangerous; heavy machinery can contribute, for example, to hearing loss. By implementing vibration dampening, companies can make work environments safer. This reduces the risk of employee injury and helps companies retain employees by demonstrating that they are committed to a healthy workplace. Another reason for vibration dampening is to protect the equipment. Sustained vibration can cause damage that varies in nature, but which can cause abnormal wear that leads to malfunction or breakage. Very sensitive equipment needs special vibration protection to prevent misregistration, malfunctions, inaccurate measurement, and other problems. Vibration dampening in this case keeps equipment in better condition, cutting down on maintenance and replacement costs.
Vibration damping materials and their applications
Vibration damping materials are used to reduce or eliminate noise in industrial, electronic, structural and ergonomic applications caused by resonance and vibration. Vibration damping materials are applied to various products such as Notebook computers, PDAs, car navigation systems, mobile phones, and many other types of electronic equipment. Vehicles, too, are subject to vibration and as such they need to be fitted with vibration damping material. Special acrylic rubber is used in dampening of vibration energy by converting it into thermal energy. This is a highly effective vibration dampening material. In addition, the improved heat resistance allows use in a broader range of areas and applications. There truly is a wide range of applications which require vibration dampening both in the industrial and consumer worlds.

I strikes me as a bit counterintuitive that I would enjoy Derek Yu’s Spelunky as much as I do, while I remain estranged from Dark Souls. Aren’t both games super-cruel dungeon crawls, presenting maddeningly difficult challenges while swiftly and severely punishing the slightest error? Perhaps, but they do so with practically opposite attitudes towards the player, a difference suggested by — but much deeper than — the two games’ radically different aesthetics.
Dark Souls treats player error as player failure. Like a draconian music teacher, when you misstep it cuffs you on the ear, sends you back to the start, and growls do it again. Over and over, from the top, until you get it right, or until your hour in the conservatory’s up and it sends you home with a sigh and a vague admonition to practice every day, making it clear with its tone that it knows you won’t.
Sure, this is fair — the notes are right there on the page, after all! You’re either playing them or you’re not, and when you’re not, you have introduced a state of objective error that has spoiled the whole performance, invalidating all your most recent effort. Eventually you’ll do this so many times that — if you’re like me — you’ll start feeling rather distant and disconnected from your past motivation for starting play.
This is not Spelunky’s way. Spelunky joyously scrambles up its world before every play, refusing to provide a rote book for you to follow, and instead handing you a crazy Burroughsian cut-up of a platformer level based on a capricious randomizer which the game itself seems barely in control of. While Spelunky has the visual trappings of an adventure game, I would argue it lies closer in spirit to a pinball game. Like a well-designed pinball table, the layout of a Spelunky level is inherently fair — there’s always a clear path from the start to the exit, littered with eminently surmountable obstacles. But the player’s by-definition unfamiliarity with the level, fresh from the procedural engine, plays the same role as physics does in pinball. While theoretically in total control of the game’s wholly deterministic world, the fallible player is guaranteed to slip up and either drain the ball or deposit the on-screen adventurer onto a bed of spikes, respectively.
Crucially, Spelunky responds to this eventuality by immediately crashing the curtain down with its game-over screen, sharing in a morbidly celebratory tone how well you did this time. Yay! it cries. You just finished another game of Spelunky! Did you have fun? Wanna play again? This is not a game that gapes in mock astonishment that you still haven’t gotten it right, nor will it speculate out loud that perhaps you’ve forgotten which part you’re supposed to blow into. Rather, Spelunky is all about mastery through iterative play. For all its on-screen depictions of death and dismemberment, its high-score tables and clever earned-shortcut system emphasizes the player’s own high-water marks, rather than their most recent mistakes.
As I write this, I know that I can get through the introductory mine levels without problem during most plays, a feat that seemed quite impossible when I was new to the game. While the subsequent jungle levels usually chew me up, I have seen the brutal ice caves that follow them at least a few times, and I know that in time even they will start to feel familiar. How different this feels than Dark Souls, which encourages worry and obsession between play sessions over the current obstacles between the player and the endgame, challenges that they’ll have to throw themselves against again and again until they finally nail it.
I have to admit it: for me, the prospect of mastering Dark Souls involved awakening an certain long-dormant internal voice muttering that my parents are paying good money for this, by god, and why would I have
asked for the trombone purchased the game if I didn’t seem to care about playing it right? I realize that not every player would find themselves similarly encumbered. But Spelunky, for all its various surface similarities, does not stir these feelings, even though I must have “lost” at Spelunky an order of magnitude more times than in Dark Souls. This suggests a fundamental difference that isn’t just about me, and tells me with certainty which of the two instruments I’d sooner recommend picking up.

Mentor Schools Board of Education unanimously approved a land lease with the city of Mentor during its meeting Tuesday night.
The proposed basin would prevent Two Town Ditch, which drains about 800 acres in Ward 3, from overflowing during heavy rains.
"I believe (the basin's) saving the future for the Silver Mound and St. James area," said Ward 3 Councilman Ed Walsh, who attended the school board meeting.
"I'm happy and thankful to the schoolboard, (Superintendent) Dr. (Jacqueline) Hoynes and the whole school administration," Ward added.
Boardmember Drew Sparacia did suggest one amendment that the board added to the lease before approving it.
Part of the lease permits the school to take the property back if it ever needs it. The board added the qualifier that the property would still have all the potential uses it had before it became a basin.
Additionally, the school will still be able to use the property most of the time because the basin is only expected to fill during the heaviest of rains.
The school district is only charging the city $1 per year for the lease.
Work will not begin immediately on the basin. It still needs to be approved by City Council and grant money needs to be procured to make the basin, Walsh said.
"We got to get the grant money and get to work but it's a major step in the right direction," Walsh said.
City Manager Kenneth Filipiak told The News-Herald that the basin would be able to capture 80 percent of the water at the upstream end and as much as 35 percent at the downstream end.

Nuremberg, Germany (dpa) – The mayor of the German metropolis of Nuremberg on Tuesday condemned an unsanctioned gathering of neo-Nazis on the Nazi social gathering’s historic rally grounds, including that prosecutors had been contemplating submitting legal costs within the case.
In early February, a bunch of right-wing extremists gathered on the web site with torches with out approval from metropolis officers. On Sunday, video footage of the neo-Nazis rallying in entrance of a residence for refugees prompted a public outcry.
“The prosecutor’s workplace is at the moment wanting into whether or not there’s proof of incitement of the lots,” Maly mentioned, including that holding an unsanctioned rally was a misdemeanour, not a legal offence.
“It is a state of affairs that ought to alarm us – in all of Germany, however particularly in Nuremberg – the truth that individuals are utilizing these symbols in locations like this,” the mayor mentioned.
The Nazis held large-scale propaganda occasions on the Nuremberg rally grounds between 1923 and 1939. Many movies had been made to commemorate them, together with Leni Riefenstahl’s “Triumph of the Will” and “The Victory of Religion.”

Here at Family Practice Center, we try to stress the importance of mental health to our patients. A person’s mental health is every bit as important as their physical health when it comes to achieving and maintaining long-term wellness. That’s why we wanted to use this month’s Spotlight Testimonial to tell the story of Lindsay, one of our patients who was suffering from high anxiety before coming to Family Practice Center.
Lindsay’s nervous condition was putting an extraordinary strain on her mental and physical wellbeing. Her anxiety was leading to panic attacks as well as a condition known as unmanageable excoriation disorder that led to her to excessively pick at her skin. “I felt like I was spinning out of control and I needed help.”
Due to the nature of her symptoms, Lindsay came to Family Practice Center because she felt that she needed a healthcare provider with a broad range of knowledge and expertise. Over the course of a year, Dr. James Wheeler and Lindsay developed a medication regimen to help ease her anxiety and skin picking. Needless to say, the treatment has been an incredible success.
“I feel like an entirely new person due to the progress I have made with Dr. Wheeler. Since I have gotten a hold of my anxiety, I quit a job that brought me no joy and went back to school to pursue my passion for nursing. I have a steady relationship, my friendships are more solid, and I don’t make many impulsive decisions anymore. I am overall a better, happier version of myself.”
We are so happy to hear that Lindsay is now doing so much better and pursuing her passion in nursing. We want to take a moment to thank Lindsay and all of our other Spotlight Patients who have taken the time to share their stories with us. If you experience anxiety, our healthcare providers can help by working to develop a treatment plan to best assist you healthily managing your condition. For more information or to schedule an appointment today (or a telemedicine appointment with Dr. Tyler Wheeler), please contact Family Practice Center. And follow us on Facebook and Twitter for additional testimonials, tips, news, and more.

Kick Back: Five Reasons Relaxing Can Improve Your Health
Guest Blogger: Dixie Somers
Everyone is busy, stressed, and struggling to find time for rest and relaxation. However, it is very important for you to take the time out to relax. Relaxing not only helps you feel good, but it offers a number of other health benefits. Here are the top five reasons your body wants you to relax.
1. Boost Your Immune System
You can boost your immune system by relaxing. There was a study done by Ohio State University on cancer patients. The subjects were asked to practice progressive muscular relaxation. The results of the study showed that the subjects were able to significantly reduce their risk of breast cancer recurrence.
In another study done by Ohio State University, elderly people were asked to perform relaxation exercises for a month. The results of the study showed that the subjects were able to boost their immune systems to better protect against tumors and viruses.
2. Lower Blood Pressure
Relaxing is perhaps one of the simplest things that you can do to lower your blood pressure. There was a study performed by the British Medical Journal. The researchers found that meditation changes the way that the body responds to stress hormones. This is very similar to the way that high blood pressure medications work. There was another study done by the British Medical Journal that showed that people who are trained to relax can lower their blood pressure significantly. Relax in the pool or hot tub to get your blood pressure down.
3. Irritable Bowel Syndrome Relief
Irritable bowel syndrome is a painful condition that causes constipation, diarrhea, and bloating. A team of researchers at State University of New York asked patients to meditate two times per day. The subjects noticed a significant improvement in their symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.
4. Boost Fertility
A group of researchers at the University of Western Australia discovered that a woman is most likely to conceive during the times that she is relaxed. In another study performed by Trakya University, researchers found that chronic stress can lower sperm motility and count. The study suggested that men can boost their fertility by relaxing.
5. Reduce Inflammation
Chronic inflammation can lead to psoriasis, heart disease, asthma and arthritis. Stress is one of the many things that can trigger or worsen inflammation. Relaxing helps switch off the body’s stress response, which can help treat and prevent those conditions. There was a study done by McGill University that showed subjects who participate in meditation on a regular basis can improve their psoriasis symptoms.

We love Lofer. Great family resort, not too many queues and missed it for the last couple of years :-( . Excellent for young kids to learn, as we started our 4,5 and 8 yr old a good few years back, and they were well catered for.
Can't wait to return in 5 weeks time and excited about spending new year on the slopes.
Such great locals and always made to feel welcome wherever you go - our favourite place to ski ...
PS - don't share this with too many people, as it will just become another hectic resort.

Besides appearing on a couple of collabs this year, Bryson Tiller’s been keeping things on the down-low since he dropped True to Self in 2017. But it’s back to biz now—and he’s just shared a brand-new song in the lead up to his forthcoming album, Serenity.
“Canceled” features Tiller flexing his smooth flow as he spits quick-fire bars over a thumping Hunga-produced hip hop beat. On it, the Louisville native is full of regret as he looks back on a relationship gone sour. “Wrote this fuckin’ anthem, alert you like it’s amber / Distress to my damsel / But she say I’m canceled,” he raps on the chorus.
“Something I made a couple of days ago, still warming up,” the singer-songwriter wrote on his SoundCloud. “More soon promise!!”
Tiller’s upcoming record, Serenity, is set to drop sometime later this year. But in the meantime, you can listen to “Canceled” below.

Chinese tech giant Lenovo is set to debut a range of consumer solid state drives following a new partnership with BIWIN, a memory and storage manufacturer best known for producing products for brands such as HP and Acer.
As a result of this new collaboration, BIWIN will produce Lenovo-branded SSDs, with PCIe Gen4, PCIe Gen3, SATA II, and portable drives in the initial lineup of four products. Yes, we're a bit disappointed not to see PCIe 5.0 or USB4 SSDs included, but no doubt they'll be considered for the second wave of products.
The Lenovo SSD series includes the LN960 M.2, which is designed for multimedia, and intensive applications. With read/write speeds of up to 7400 MB/s /6500 MB/s, the LN960 uses a 4-channel PCIe Gen 4 x 4 controller and NVMe 2.0. The LN960 is available in capacities from 512 GB to 4 TB.
Portable storage too
The LN860 M.2, meanwhile, offers fast speeds and low power use, making it ideal for active users. The LN860 delivers up to 3500 MB/s /3000 MB/s sequential read/write speeds, thanks to its 4-channel PCIe Gen 3 x 4 controller and NVMe 1.4. It's available in capacities from 256 GB to 2 TB.
For mainstream PCs, the LS800 SATA III 2.5" offers improved reliability and speed. It uses a high-performance controller and SATA 3.0 to deliver up to 520 MB/s / 500 MB/s sequential read/write speeds. Capacities range from 240 GB to 1920 GB.
Finally, the LP600 USB 3.2, due for release in Q2 2024, offers portable storage with capacities from 512 GB to 4 TB and speeds up to 2000 MB/s for read/write.
There’s no word on pricing or availability for any of the drives yet, but with Lenovo and BIWIN involved you can expect them to be competitively priced when they do arrive.

Longtime GE leader shares lessons of crisis
Graduate students got a firsthand look at the financial crisis -- as well as some of its learnings and lessons -- from an executive who helped lead GE through the “Great Recession.”
Michael Neal, former vice chairman of GE and chairman and CEO of GE Capital, visited Fisher’s campus as part of the Cullman Executive Luncheon Series. Neal, who retired last year after a 34-year career with GE, currently serves on the Board of Directors of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and is a member of the board’s Risk Policy Committee.
He described the period prior to the crisis as one in which too many thought that no story -- including that home prices would only go up and the global “well of liquidity” was unlimited -- was too positive to be believed. Quoting Howard Marks of Oaktree Capital, Neal concluded: “Nothing is more risky than a widespread belief that there is no risk.” Even those who anticipated difficulties were caught off guard.
“Many people saw a crisis coming, but they didn’t see this one,” Neal said. “They thought they were going to be hit by a bicycle, and they got hit by a truck.”
The lessons learned, he said, are important to remember for the next generation of leaders. He urged students to stay connected with the world in order to better anticipate events, continually test the ability of their organizations to withstand a crisis, be willing to revisit possibilities that may have been ruled out, and place a greater emphasis on communication.
Ultimately, however, leaders will be tested by uncertainty -- in terms of business and character.
“You have to learn how to make decisions without perfect information,” he said. “I tell people that I’m good at making decisions quickly and I’ve been lucky enough to be right 77 percent of the time. It’s also more important to be wrong sometimes than to be indecisive. But you have to be very realistic that if you’re wrong you own it and fix it -- and not be defensive about it.”
The Cullman Executive Luncheon Series is designed to connect students with senior executives from top companies and organizations across the globe. MBA candidate Steven Gangloff said being able to engage with leaders such as Neal is an invaluable part of the student experience.
“Mr. Neal provided a candid and clear view of many of the challenges that we will face as we build our careers and advance in the global business environment,” Gangloff said. “Having access to that level of expertise and insight is an incredible complement to our course work.”


|An absorbent was prepared by radiation grafting of cationic monomer on fiber to reduce the color. The color was easily removed using the absorbent. The decrease in chromaticity using absorbents depended on the degree of grafting of the absorbents. Maximum decrease in 4h was obtained when absorbent with 86% degree of grafting was used. The absorbed colored substances on the absorbent were easily desorbed using salt solution. The colored substances in the secondary treated water were estimated to be humic substances. The absorbent and desorbent after removing colored substances could be used repeatedly.

Professional dental cleanings go beyond the daily brushing and flossing routine. While at-home oral care is vital, it may not always reach every nook and cranny of your mouth. Dental professionals are trained to identify and address issues that you might miss. Here’s why these cleanings are so important:
1. Early Detection of Dental Issues: During a dental cleaning, the dentist or hygienist can identify any early signs of dental problems such as cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. Detecting these issues at an early stage can prevent them from growing more severe and costly to treat.
2. Thorough Plaque and Tartar Removal: Plaque is a tacky film of bacteria that forms on your teeth. Over time, it hardens into tartar, which cannot be removed by brushing alone. Professional cleanings effectively remove these harmful substances, minimizing the chance of tooth decay and gum disease.
3. Fresher Breath: Persistent bad breath can indicate underlying dental issues. Exams and cleanings in Temecula, CA, help eliminate the bacteria causing bad breath, leaving you with a fresher and more pleasant breath.
4. Brighter Smile: Cleanings can remove surface stains from your teeth, making your smile brighter and more attractive.
5. Customized Oral Care: Dental professionals can provide personalized advice on oral hygiene practices and dietary choices to improve your dental health.
Is professional teeth cleaning necessary?
Yes, professional teeth cleaning is necessary for several reasons:
1. Preventive Maintenance: Regular cleanings are a form of preventive maintenance for your teeth and gums. They help you avoid more extensive and costly dental procedures in the future.
2. Improved Overall Health: Dental health is closely linked to your overall health. Poor oral hygiene can result in systemic health issues such as heart disease and diabetes. Dentist teeth cleaning can help reduce these risks.
3. Enhanced Aesthetics: A clean and healthy smile upgrades your confidence and contributes to your overall appearance.
4. Prolonged Tooth Life: Regular cleanings can help extend the lifespan of your natural teeth, reducing the need for extractions and replacements.
How important is deep cleaning for teeth?
Deep cleaning, also referred to as scaling and root planing, is a more intensive dental cleaning procedure typically recommended for patients with advanced gum disease or those who haven’t had a cleaning in a while. Here’s why it’s crucial:
1. Gum Disease Management: Deep cleaning effectively treats gum disease by eliminating bacteria and tartar buildup below the gumline, which is not accessible with regular cleanings.
2. Halting Progression: If left untreated, gum disease can progress and lead to tooth loss. Deep cleaning can halt the disease’s progression and save your teeth.
3. Improved Oral Health: Deep cleaning promotes better overall oral health by reducing inflammation and preventing complications associated with gum disease.
4. Preventing Tooth Mobility: In advanced cases of gum disease, teeth can become loose. Deep cleaning helps prevent tooth mobility and maintains the stability of your teeth.
5. Avoiding Surgery: In some cases, deep cleaning can eliminate the need for surgical procedures to address gum disease.

It’ll be several degrees below zero with a chance of snow this weekend in Edmonton, which means for Edmontonians, it might be the nicest weekend of the whole year.
Montreal’s in this self-described ‘City of Champions’ for an extremely important game (and it’s only the fifth of the season) because we’re now watching with baited breath to see how they respond after the Gruesome Groping on Griffith Way Wednesday night. For Habs fans, it’s all about the team playing better, seeing how Carey Price responds, and of course, winning.
For Edmonton fans, it’s all about setting up a posse to round up Calgary’s Jerome Iginla, who tripped and trampled upon Don Cherry’s boyfriend Sheldon Souray Thursday night.
And for Sheldon Souray, it’s all about mushrooms and pepperoni.

A protester who refused to leave the Rhode Island State House over Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo's support of a proposed power plant in Burrillville has been arrested.
Another protester says the woman arrested Tuesday is a mother of two young sons.
Rhode Island Capitol police Chief Joseph Little said the building closed at 4:30 p.m. and anyone who refused to leave could be charged with trespassing.
More than a dozen protesters from the Fighting Against Natural Gas collective began a sit-in Tuesday afternoon in the governor's formal reception area.
Providence protester Nick Katkevich said the woman planned to stay until Raimondo met her demands or she was forcibly removed. Other protesters voluntarily left after police arrived.
Chicago-based Invenergy LLC wants to build a 900-megawatt, gas-fired power plant in Burrillville.

Compassion’s continuing relief efforts after the 2010 earthquake in Haiti are providing lasting help for children and their families.
I’ll never forget that Tuesday, even though I was thousands of miles away. I had traveled to Haiti the year before and was enchanted. I loved the round, rolling words of Haitian Creole and the buttery French-inspired food. I loved the warmth of my Haitian coworkers and the proud faces of those I met. I only visited for a short time and hoped to return.
So on that Tuesday when the news reported a 7.0 earthquake not far from the capital of Port-au-Prince, I watched in horror with the rest of the world.
It was rush hour. Brightly painted tap taps inched forward on the crowded streets while women with baskets on their heads sold snacks to commuters. Suddenly, the ground shook. People began to yell, and the ground didn’t stop shaking for 40 seconds—enough time to cause widespread destruction.
One Compassion Haiti employee was on his way home. “I could see people running in all directions being hit by cars and killed on the spot. I could hear people all around screaming at the top of their lungs, people who were bleeding. Both dead and injured were lying on the pavement. I could only kneel down in the street and cry out to the Lord.”
More than 200,000 people died, and more than one million became homeless. 62 Compassion-assisted children died, and 961 were injured. One Compassion Haiti employee, Farcine Désir, and one Compassion International contractor, David Hames, were killed. Even though all of Compassion Haiti’s staff in the capital were gravely impacted by the disaster—losing family members, possessions and homes—they also were committed to finding and helping Compassion-assisted children amidst the chaos.
In the following weeks, months and years Compassion Haiti has been providing for the short- and long-term needs of those whose lives crumbled in the earthquake, through the generous support of Compassion supporters who gave $30 million worldwide to help rebuild.
Medical aid and trauma counselling
Triage clinics were set up at Compassion church partners, where volunteer Haitian and North American nurses and doctors provided first aid to the injured. Compassion Haiti also cared for the spiritual and emotional needs of the children, providing trauma counselling, as well as vision casting seminars for local pastors to lead their congregations through the difficult time.
Our church partners in neighbouring Dominican Republic assembled thousands of food kits, which were driven by truck across the border. The kits fed more than 78,000 people. Each contained rice, beans, spaghetti, peanut butter, cooking oil and three gallons of water. They provided a family of five with a meal a day for two weeks.
Temporary shelter and classrooms
Compassion provided temporary shelter, such as tents and building materials, to families who were homeless. Many of Compassion Haiti’s child development centres double as schools, so Compassion provided temporary classrooms and furniture for our church partners whose schools were destroyed.
Compassion granted 850 parents with loans, averaging $1,000, to start small businesses and begin to provide for their families again.
To date, Compassion has rebuilt 28 child development centres. We hired renowned Salvadoran engineer Hilda de Bojorquez, an expert in earthquake-resistant construction, and brought in another engineer and foreman who are also experts in seismic construction. For the past five years, Hilda and her team have lived in Haiti, overseeing every aspect of rebuilding.
Rebuilding has been challenging—rain and crime have caused delays, as well as finding trained builders and adequate materials.
Despite these challenges, Compassion’s rebuilding efforts have been a success. “We have accomplished virtually all the goals we set five years ago,” says Matthew Moore, Compassion’s management support director for Haiti. “The money that so many generous donors and sponsors gave to the Haiti disaster response will be spent for exactly what we said it would be spent.”

Portales peanut butter plant aims for March reopen
The country's largest organic peanut butter processor linked to a national salmonella outbreak says it plans to fully reopen in March but didn't know when its products will be back in stores.
Sunland Inc. spokeswoman Katalin Coburn said Friday that the Portales-based company has rehired employees at its peanut mill and will soon hire back workers at the peanut butter mill.
The company's peanut processing and peanut butter plant had been shuttered since the recall in September but the Food and Drug Administration said last month it could reopen.
Sunland recalled more than 100 nut and nut butter products after the outbreak. Forty-one illnesses in 20 states were linked to the peanut butter.
Coburn says changes at the mills will put the company ahead of new FDA guidelines.


Many have said that Chris Farley, were he still alive, would make the perfect actor to portray the much-maligned Toronto mayor, Rob Ford.
But it looks like Alec Baldwin is in line to take on the recently-out-of-rehab municipal leader, as it has been revealed that the 30 Rock star is in talks to play a character loosely based on the man who sought to reduce the elusive “gravy train.”
Very little is known about the project at this time, but Deadline reports that the series will be a one-hour cable show written by award-winning author Wells Tower and developed by Alec and NBC Productions.
What do you think? Is the world ready for a show about Rob Ford and is Alec Baldwin the best choice? Tell us @hellocanada on Twitter!

Jan 07, · How do the vinyl LP versions of "Out Of Silent Planet"; "Gretchen Goes To Nebraska"; "Faith Hope Love"; and their fourth self-titled from '92 sound compared to the CDs? According to evrycontsongvagapawelvenewsmactio.coinfo, these are the only King's X albums to have been released on vinyl. Apparently, the self-titled was only pressed in Germany.
Kings X sounds like a fully mature band even on this, their first album- it is still one of their best. The songwriting, engineering, and performance are all top notch, and of course, Mr. Pinnicks incredible voice and Ty's ripping guitar always deliver/5(60).

Budget performance cars are a critical part of the mod life. They’re an affordable option for young enthusiasts just entering the market—and many times, drivers develop lifetime allegiances to the makes or models that they start with. Luckily for you, many automakers are focusing on affordable performance in 2015. So Revvolution decided to put together a list of this model year’s fastest entry-level performance cars. The criteria were simple: under $35,000, over 200 horsepower, zero to 60 times under 6 seconds and quarter-mile times under 14 seconds.
Those who are new to the automotive scene may think the cleanest of cars are created only by master builders and enthusiasts working in the automotive field. If you’re one of those people, then our good friend and San Francisco native, John Delaughter, will prove you wrong with his backyard-built, daily-driven 1973 Toyota Celica. John’s heart for classic Japanese domestic market (JDM) automobiles has led him to visit Japan four times, learn Japanese, and create one of the most legitimate of builds. It’s a build that doesn’t just show-off an affinity for style and speed, but a true love of the Modified Lifestyle.
And we’re back! Though Mother Nature didn’t cooperate for TX2K14, it didn’t dampen our spirits because we knew back home some good things were happening with Project BRZ. We’re back into the mix with our weekly documentary of the progress. To bring you up to speed, the engine is off to the machine shop where they can work their magic and we’re waiting on the remainder of the build’s components to arrive, including the widebody parts that we just finished up sourcing.
In this installment we crack open the box of our new Air Lift Performance Digital Combo Kit suspension and let you know what we found, compare and contrast to the stock suspension, and provide an initial assessment.
Last week we gave you a behind the scenes look at the magic SLVA was conjuring up with the creation of the wide-body for our BRZ. In this installment, we change our focus to the drivetrain build as we’ve had lots of inquiries into what will motivate this beast.
If you're anything like me, you've looked up at multistory garages with their corkscrew ramps and thought about what they might be like echoing with the sound of horsepower and choked with tire smoke. If you're anything like the guy in this video, you thought that, remembered you had a hot-rodded little BMW 3-Series, some cameras, a buddy with a chase car and a couple of free minutes to drift it... without bothering to close it down.


The Turkish president has been snubbed by Muhammad Ali's funeral organisers after he was told he would be speaking at the late boxer's memorial service on Friday.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and King Abdullah of Jordan had been scheduled to speak at the service at the KFC Yum! Centre in Louisville, Kentucky.
The Ali family spokesman Bob Gunnell said that two mystery speakers are going to be added to the current programme, meaning there will not be room for foreign dignitaries.
Mr Gunnell said both their offices were “gracious and understood”.
He also said 15,000 people were expected to attend the service at the Yum! Centre, while 14,000 tickets will made be available to the public for the Jenazah, the Muslim funeral prayer.
Malcolm X's daughter Attalah Shabazz, Ali's wife Lonnie Ali, his eldest daughter Maryum and American actor Billy Crystal are also among the speakers.
The service for Ali will also include a 30-minute public Islamic service on Thursday led by Imam Zaid Shakir, a Muslim American scholar based in California. It will be held at Freedom Hall where Ali once fought.
"Everything that we're doing here was blessed by Muhammad Ali, and was requested," Mr Gunnell said.
"He wanted the memorial service to reflect his life, and how he lived. He wanted everyone to be able to attend. He was the people's champ, and he wanted the memorial service to reflect that.
"We want this to be inclusive of everyone. That's why we set Freedom Hall - not just with its historical significance - but with the size of Freedom Hall, so that everyone fits in.
"That Muslims and people of all faiths could attend, and perhaps learn more and be like Muhammad Ali, and open their hearts to everybody.
"This is not a political statement, this is not about politics, this is about how Muhammad Ali lived his life."
Ali died last Friday in Arizona following a long battle with Parkinson’s disease. He was 74.
