BFCC LITE Scheduled for 24th Sept 2017 has been POSTPONED
Due to the unforeseen circustances the first BFCC LITE is to be re-scheduled to next Spring. An alternative date this September/October could not be confirmed due to the proliferation of other film collecting events around the country.
Please make contact if you would like a dealer table next Spring - Telephone is 020 8997 1841 or email firstname.lastname@example.org. Dealer tables are 10ft and cost £30. General admission £5.
The previous two events both ran at substantial loss so if anyone would like to show their support for a continuation of the BFCC with the new BFCC LITE I would urge you to support the first event in Spring 2018 and also Keith's latest DVD/Blu-Ray release "THE LAST PICTURE SHOW" which highlights the unique nature of the conventions in more recent times with HD transfers of several of the shows from the 65th BFCC in 2016, plus the fabulous show put on for the 50th event back in October 2005. Take a look at the FILMTEK page and if you can put an order through for this or any other Filmtek DVD release it could make all the difference to the ongoing survival of the original film collecting convention. £15 for the double DVD and £17.50 for the BD. A good response to this latest release really could make a difference.
For those of us seriously interested in the film collecting hobby I strongly recommend Keith's "THE MEN BEHIND THE MOVIES" which is all about the history of the package movie and the men who edited them, plus the history of the BFCC with much of the Super 8 footage we screened at the 65th event in Part 1. Visit the FILMTEK page and to order this title or any other please go to the FILMTEK ORDER PAGE and scroll to the bottom of that screen for the Men Behind The Movies series.

THE Buhari Support Organisation, the umbrella body of All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate General Muhammadu Buhari’s supporters, has called for the arrest of the spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, for violating the Electoral Act.
The organisation praised Nigerians for turning out en masse to perform their civic responsibility and for conducting themselves peacefully.
Director of Media and Information Technology Dr. Chidia Maduekwe said at a news conference that Fani-Kayode’s claim that the PDP was leading in 23 states was against the Electoral Act, which empowers only the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to announce such results.
He said: “We strongly condemn the recent outburst and blatant misinformation of the public by Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode that the PDP was leading in 23 states. This claim is a total breach of the Electoral Act and is designed to cause the breach of peace.
“Gen. Muhammadu Buhari had emphasised to his supporters to maintain calm in the face of provocation by the ruling party. This recent utter exhibition of lawlessness enmeshed in the typical character of impunity by PDP is unacceptable.
“We ask the security agencies to effect the arrest of Mr. Fani-Kayode for breaching the Electoral Act, which forbids any organ outside INEC from officially declaring election results. His arrest for further questioning will be an indication that the security agencies are truly unbiased participants in this process as this declaration is also a breach of the 1st and 2nd Abuja Peace Accord.
“We call on the international community and observers to note the steps being taken by PDP to cause severe breach of peace and call them to order. We also ask our supporters to maintain the peace as we await the official announcement from INEC of the authentic result for the March 28 elections.”
Maduekwe added: “The presidential and parliamentary election is a watershed in our march towards credible, fair and free elections in Nigeria. Our gratitude goes to our supporters, who trooped to the various polling units nationwide to vote for our presidential candidate General Muhammadu Buhari despite provocation, particularly in the Southsouth and Southeast.
“Their effort and determination to resist manipulation of the outcome is commendable in the face of tyranny, intimidation, and blatant misuse of the security by PDP/government agents.
“We appeal to our supporters to sustain their calmness in the face of provocation and abuse of our electoral processes.
“Many independent observers have positively commented on the large turnout of voters, especially in the northern and southwestern states of the country and their orderly conduct. General Muhammadu Buhari is so far, doing brilliantly in most polling units nationwide.
“We reject the use of security by PDP government to compromise an election process that has been commended as having high quotient of integrity by the manner voters conducted themselves. A situation where ballot papers are being thumb-printed by security agents with the connivance of PDP is condemnable.
“It is highly regrettable that Senator Goje’s residence should be surrounded by a detachment of armed military officers, thereby undermining his ability to fulfill his fundamental freedom of voting
“The court order that soldiers should not be deployed was openly disobeyed in Edo and Rivers. The question should be: “who gave that order to contravene a judicial pronouncement?”
“The shameful act by the Vice President, Namadi Sambo, in moving his polling unit in Kaduna away from where he registered is questionable. It is contrary to the Electoral Act and such action by the Vice President should be examined and the illegality addressed as these are signs of impunity by the ruling PDP government, which INEC should not treat with levity.
“The gruesome hacking to death of APC supporter by PDP hoodlums and Ijaw militant youth under the watchful eyes of the security should not be wished away. There have been several reported cases of uniformed men caught in the last 48 hours thumb-printing ballot papers for PDP in Port Harcourt.
“Some were caught at Mile 2 and reports were lodged with the police. However, the culprit was released on arriving the police headquarters in Port Harcourt while the APC agent, who made the report, was locked up in a police cell; a clear case of the patriot becoming the offender.
The Bauchi/Gombe incident does not appear to be a Boko Haram attack. It is believed to have been arranged to cause mayhem in the state with the resultant excuse to declare curfew and waste votes in favour of General Buhari.
“From the foregoing, we make bold to request INEC to please, adhere strictly to the guideline, which makes it mandatory for the polling units party agents to sign result sheet, forming the basis for collation of result at collation centres. We have witnessed in many instances, the security dispersing party agents before their duties were fulfilled, leading to the manipulation of the vote count by the security agents with active participation of PDP officials.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Despite a 90-minute meeting between the president and Congressional leaders at the White House, the government shutdown shows no signs of ending.
House Speaker John Boehner emerged from the meeting first, saying that the president refused to negotiate.
Boehner said that House Republicans have sent four proposals for funding the government to the Senate, but they've all been rejected.
He said that the Senate should appoint specific members to work out differences between House and Senate proposals.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said that Boehner needs to allow a vote on a Senate-passed bill, and stop focusing on the president's health care law, to get the government back open.
"All we're asking for here is a discussion and fairness for the American people under Obamacare," Boehner said.
"My friend John Boehner, I repeat, cannot take yes for an answer," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
"I can only conclude that they wanted to shut down the government, that they think that that has a purpose for them, and we know what that is. They want to overturn the Affordable Care Act," Pelosi said. "That's not going to happen."
Around 800,000 federal employees and more than one-third of the government's civilian employees have been placed on unpaid furlough.
That includes roughly 70 percent of the intelligence workforce, including the CIA and NSA.

Since you got crazy money to throw around, how about helping a poor gamer out? lol
If you don't have a 4k Tv/monitor plz don't choose that option in video settings when watching the vid lol
We need to see some PC 4k comparisons vs the PS4....just for fun ;)

This is a simple, easy to make, healthy and wholesome sandwich and a perfect breakfast option as it has carbohydrates, protein, minerals, vitamins and fibre.
The soft and creamy paneer and cucumber layer is very well complimented by the crisp and tangy carrot and ketchup layer. It also is very pleasing to look at. Am sure almost all kids will be very willing to take as school lunch too. My daughter loved it:)
It will be a good option for kids parties too as it can be made well in advance.
Whole wheat bread slices – 12
Cucumber – 1
Crumbled paneer – 1/2 cup
Carrot – 1
Tomato ketchup – 2-3 tbsps
Salt to taste
Pepper powder – 1/2 tsp
Butter – as much required to spread on the bread
Wash and peel the cucumber. Scoop out the seeds and discard them. Grate the cucumber and squeeze it to remove the water content from the cucumber.
Mix the cucumber with the crumbled paneer. Add salt to taste and pepper powder. Mix well again and keep it aside.
Wash and grate carrot. Add tomato ketchup to the grated carrot and mix well. Keep it aside.
Cut off the edges of the bread slices.
Spread butter on all slices.
Spread the cucumber paneer mixture on one slice. Cover it another slice of bread. Now spread the carrot mixture on this slice and cover with a slice of bread ( buttered side must be inner side).
One set of sandwich is made. Similarly make three more sets.
Cut diagonally and serve:)

DRS judges ask for more song variety
After 13 seasons of Digicel Rising Stars, one comment that has been constant, "choose better songs".
Judges have long lamented to the show's hopefuls to not only choose songs because they are popular, but compositions that highlight the beauty of their voice. It was no different at last weekend's auditions in Ocho Rios, St Ann.
"A definite don't is singing songs like Beyonce's Listen and songs you hear on the radio over and over. When you come to a talent show and we have to listen that stuff, and every other contestant is doing the same song, it is tiresome and irritating and we will always ask you to sing something else," said resident judge, Anthony Miller, with characteristic dry wit.
Supporting his fellow judge, Conroy Wilson said: "It's not that these songs are bad. They are written and performed by clearly amazing artistes. The issue is that it becomes monotonous. There are millions of songs that can set persons apart from the crowd and, in any kind of audition, that is what you want to do."
The judges have shared a few songs they are encouraging persons not to sing at the remaining auditions.
n Sam Smith - Stay With Me, Not The Only One
n Adele - Chasing Pavements, Rolling in the Deep, Someone Like You
n Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You
n Beyonce - Listen
n Ikaya - Fly away
n John Legend - Ordinary People, Everybody Knows
n Etana - I Am Not Afraid, Roots, Wrong Address, Free
Auditions will continue tomorrow at Manchester High School in Mandeville starting, at 8 a.m.

Updated 20 Jul 2022, 3:29 am
Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh has once again shown his skill in political manoeuvring as he gathered a sizeable number to vote for the NDA candidate Draupadi Murmu in the Presidential elections held recently. Next comes the elections for the post of Vice President in which BJP is projecting West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s nemesis and former Governor JagdeepDhankar as the NDA candidate.
CM Biren Singh is expecting a total of 55 votes for Murmu in the 60-member Manipur Legislative Assembly. Besides the vote of 32 BJP MLAs, including himself and partner in the government, Naga Peoples’ Front (NPF)’s five MLAs, he is counting on the votes of former ally NPP and new friends JDU, Kuki Peoples Alliance (KPA) and three independents.
BJP got absolute majority with 32 seats in the 60-member Manipur legislative assembly. The once powerful Congress party was reduced to a single digit figure of five, while BJP ally in the preceding government NPP emerged as the second largest party with seven seats though its leader YumnamJoykumar lost his seat.
BJP’s other ally NPF got five seats, increasing its tally by one from last assembly elections while JD-U and the KPA got six and two respectively besides three independents.
Meanwhile NPF has once again become a partner in government formation, JDU and KPA besides two independents have pledged their support to the BJP government.
In the present circumstances of development funds and goodwill of the chief minister, it is always easy to lure the non-Congress MLAs and cobble together the required numbers. It was not that easy in the earlier term when he had to please everyone individually to keep them in good humour, as the BJP-led government had to rely on its allies who are out to extract their pound of flesh besides the demands of the ‘friends’ in the Congress.
Now that the BJP has a comfortable majority with 32 seats, the perennial threat of political turmoil has been lessened to some extent. However, internal strife still remains. In spite of the comfortable majority and support from other parties, it took 10 days for BJP to pin down the next leader.
It was not exactly a cakewalk for N Biren Singh in retaining the CM post once again and he had to visit New Delhi twice after the election results. His work in the last five years paid off.
The day Prime Minister NarendraModi granted him an audience in Parliament amidst the intense jostle for leadership, many were certain that N Biren was coming back again with Modi’s blessings. However, it did not deter the contenders and then Union Home Minister Amit Shah had to put all speculations at rest.
The three contenders Bishwajit, Khemchand and Govindas were also sworn in as ministers along with Chief Minister N Biren Singh. Now, the game will begin once again and one has to wait and see how N Biren Singh handles or manages these three challengers in the days to come.
Following the political grapevine, all is not well within the BJP. Out of 32 BJP MLAs elected in the 2022 state assembly elections, only 10 have been allotted ministership, including the chief minister while its ally NPF had been given two posts of ministers.
While former minister and Yaiskul MLA ThokchomSatyabarta Singh has been elected as Speaker, another BJP MLA DiganglungGangmei has been made the chairman of Hill Areas Committee.
To assuage hurt feelings of not being included in the Council of Ministers, recently 10 BJP MLAs were appointed as chairman of some autonomous corporations and bodies. There are still 10 MLAs who are still frustrated and disappointed and mind you, they have to explain to their constituents as to why they were left out.
People in the constituencies expect their representatives to become ministers and if they are not included in the Council of Ministers, a chairmanship is still expected. So, the fate of anybody left out hangs in the balance. And the pressure on the chief minister is omnipresent.
In trying to please everyone and keep the delicate balance of internal politics in check, he has no friends but a lonely man at the top.

Blending ancestral kitchen traditions and new scientific research will allow fermentation to change our diet — and our planet.
In a TEDx Talk, Mara King, co-founder of fermented food store Ozukè, shares why she is proudly releasing trillions of good bacteria into the population. Her food philosophy rubs against everything the Food and Drug Administration and state health departments practice. While government agencies enforce strict sanitation standards in the name of protecting American’s food, King preaches that it’s wiping out good bacteria and dumping more toxins into the environment.
When King and co-founder Willow King (no relation) opened their Colorado-based food business, a food scientist from the Denver office of the Health & Human Services Department performed a safety inspection. The food expert was confused by Ozukè’s live, fermented pickles, sauerkraut and kimchi. King: “He said ‘Your product is so weird. We follow all these FDA guidelines in food manufacturing in order to diminish bacteria and here you are making it on purpose.’”
“The food we make is actually super, super, super safe, unlike mots processed packaged fresh foods,” King says. “The reason this food is so safe is not because I’m better at this antimicrobial Macarena than anybody else. It’s because the bacteria are doing the work of making the fermented foods pretty much bomb proof.”
Though numerous cultures have been fermenting for generations (“It’s how humans have been eating raw, crunchy vegetables all through hard winters.”), King notes it’s only in the last 10 years that scientists have been able to map the complex fermentation process. By letting bacteria thrive in its own ecosystem, it “creates a food that’s no longer harmful to humans” and makes a more nutritious product.
“Nature does not operate in a vacuum and neither should we,” King says. “We need to understand the complexity of the world in which we live, then we can start to come up with solutions that do honor our heritage.”
King, who great up in Hong Kong, says older Chinese women store an impressive knowledge of food and medicine. Merging ancient tradition with new science is what will create the living solutions needed to continue living on our planet.
“In fermentation, we have a little trick that we use which is called using a started culture or a mother. I believe that our starter culture…is our human cultural history,” King says. “Once we start tapping this information…we’ll start to come up with amazing solutions, solutions that grow, solutions that rot, solutions that breath.”
Today Ozuke (which means “the best pickled things” in Japanese) still makes pickled veggies, but also teaches fermentation workshops. For more information, visit their webpage.

Travel Confessions: Musician Courtney Barnett
With her hit single History Eraser constantly playing in our heads (and Triple J) we made it our mission to have a chat with Melbourne musician Courtney Barnett. Much like her film clip, Courtney’s rolling lyrics and old-school base are perfect for bike rides, bus rides and just hitting the road in general. Here we managed to get a hold of her between tours to ask her about life on the road, music around the world and where we can catch her next.
How many countries have you travelled to? I've only been to New Zealand so far...I got my first passport last year.
If you could narrow is down, what would be your favourite? New Zealand! It's the best. I loved it. I've been there twice now.
With the release of your debut EP you've done a bit of touring, and with more to come. How are you handling living life out of a suitcase? I have a really cool suitcase I found at a store just out of Hobart. It fits everything I need.
How would you describe your touring style? Lots of stress and panic to get somewhere on time, only to get there and have to wait 4 hours till something happens. I always make sure to have a good book.
Any crazy tour experiences so far? Just the usual tyre falling off the tour van and sitting around for 6 hours till someone saves you kind-of-thing.
If you could perform at any venue in the world, what would it be? Albert Hall (London, not Canberra)
What international music scene inspires you the most? People say the Berlin scene is crazy. But I'm most inspired by some of the stuff that happens in Melbourne.
Where would you love to travel next? Well we're doing the Something For Kate tour in May. That'll be great to see places like Perth, Darwin, Townsville, Cairns where I've never been. I wanna do it in a big bus like Priscilla but that probably won't happen. Then maybe Europe. Europe looks like it would be nice.

Rational Expectations is a clean sheet of paper in the wonky world of quantitatively based asset allocation aimed at small investors. Continuing the theme of the Investing for Adults series, this full-length finance title is not for beginners, but rather assumes a fair degree of quantitative ability and finance knowledge. If you think you can time the market or pick stocks and mutual fund managers, or even if you think that you can formulate an optimally efficient mean-variance asset allocation with a black box, then learn some basic finance and come back in a few years. On the other hand, if you know your way around risk premiums and standard deviations and know who Irving Fisher and Benjamin Graham were, and if you want to sharpen your asset class skills, you�ve come to the right place.

About the Author
William Bernstein, Ph.D., M.D., is a retired neurologist in Oregon. Known for his website on asset allocation and portfolio theory Efficient Frontier, Dr. Bernstein is also a co-principal in the money management firm Efficient Frontier Advisors, has authored several best-selling books on finance and history, and is often quoted in the national financial media.
Most Helpful Customer Reviews
Rational Expectations based on 0 ratings. 1 reviews.
This book updates Bernstein's "Intelligent Asset Allocator" (2000), and is equally impressive. Like its precursor, there is more math here than in "Four Pillars of Investing" (2002, new edition 2010). I would recommend "Four Pillars" for someone who does not want the numbers -- but "Rational Expectations" is better, for those who are up to it. I have not read the earlier short books in his "Investing for Adults" series, but my impression is that "Rational Expectations" incorporates most of that material, along with quite a bit more. Bernstein discusses asset classes, allocations between them (and how the allocations should change over one's lifetime, and how to rebalance them), how our psychology can get in the way of good results, the nature of risk in today's markets, the effects on the markets of high-frequency trading, zero-percent interest rates, and much more. An excellent book: highly recommended.

“We have an obligation to read aloud to our children. To read them things they enjoy. To read to them stories we are already tired of. To do the voices, to make it interesting, and not to stop reading to them just because they learn to read to themselves” Author, Neil Gaiman
Why read aloud?
It's as simple as it helps them develop a love for reading which in turn will help them develop those key literacy skills.
Reading out loud tends to come to a stop when children learn to read themselves, but we should try to stop ourselves from doing this. The joy of story time never leaves children, regardless of how many times they have heard the story or indeed if it is a book beyond their reading level. The love of words, reading and literature will continue to inspire them and bring them joy if we continue reading to them way beyond what is expected.
How do I read aloud?
Reading aloud, whether to a large group of children or one to one on the sofa, requires a level of performance.
Do not fret! This doesn't mean you have to be the greatest actor, it just means showing enthusiasm for the story through the medium of voice. This could be giving a character a voice as small as a mouse, or booking loudly for another. Don't forget those facial expressions younger listeners and babies.
What books should I choose?
Always go for stories that bring pleasure. How much you enjoy it will rub off onto them and how much they enjoy it will directly impact their success at school.
Even if it means the same book every day, you will be making a difference at story time.

*…My PRIVATE inbox, not my business one.
I don’t know, maybe I’m just being paranoid, but it through me off guard a bit when I got this email and video telling me to share these stories about “the real individuals BEHIND the badge”…those the email says we “often forget about.”
The “good police officers who love their job” and “take it seriously.”
Still don’t recognize who they are talking about?
Nah, I’m just playing with you, officers.
Who’s to say I’m not one to give y’all equal time?
The email came from the Los Angeles Police Protective League (LAPPL) who admits how proud they are “of the dedicated service that LAPD officers selflessly provide to their communities on a daily basis.”
Its not easy having this job. And its an unfortunate reality that the good cops get dragged through the same mud as those who are not so good.
I guess you can say, mud does not discriminate!
Yeah. I went there…
In the two videos below, we hear Los Angeles police officers tell us why they became cops. Why they love what they do, and what those jobs mean to them.
The videos are produced by LAPPL.
But why am I telling you this? Just take a look at the email they sent me:
LAPPL video campaign
The Los Angeles Police Protective League (LAPPL) is proud of the dedicated service that LAPD officers selflessly provide to their communities on a daily basis. That is why the LAPPL produced the following video showcasing a few Los Angeles police officers sharing real, personal stories about their dedication and respect for the City of Los Angeles, their jobs and their community.
Oftentimes, the real individuals behind the badge are forgotten and the human side of law enforcement falls in the shadows. This video is here to showcase those who work tirelessly to keep public safety first and hold the line against chaos.
Please share and post the following video as we attempt to mobilize the real identities of LAPD officers.
Note: The video is available on two platforms, YouTube and Vimeo.
But you don’t have to travel that far. You can see them right here. Directly below.

Sleep is important for a healthy body and for physical and mental health. Modern studies are finding that insomnia, or poor superior sleep, also leads to melancholy, stress, poor concentration, and inadequate memory functioning. Over weight people today are more likely to own disturbed sleep as a result of excess body weight mass and inadequate flow due to increased excess weight percentage. A optional blanket can add extra excess and also additional pressure to the spine. Weighted bed-sheets can contribute to additional strain on the spine and could possibly also contribute to additional health conditions such as back pain, poor posture, and discomfort at different areas of the whole body.

WASHINGTON — The 4,000-plus exhausted passengers who lived a hellish four-day ordeal aboard the powerless and drifting Carnival Triumph cruise ship won’t be left completely empty handed.
The cruise company is making a gift to the travellers of the bathrobes they were using on the ship, the company announced Friday.
“Of course the bathrobes for the Carnival Triumph are complimentary,” it said in a tweet on the official @carnivalcruise account.
But the announcement has been received with less than full-throated cheers.
“Who wants a stinky robe?!” tweeted a reporter in North Carolina, Astrid Martinez, while another user of the social media site, Natalie Eshaya, enthused sarcastically, “Oh how generous.” Another sceptic, Paul Nather, wondered “What do you think the going rate for a Carnival cruise bathrobe will be on eBay tomorrow?” The white bathrobe has become an unlikely symbol of the nightmare of the cruise-goers, who donned them to attract attention as they stood on the drifting ship.

What is the average sizing with the penis and What exactly are the extremes?
According to some gurus, the typical size is five.9 inches and 90% of all penises are concerning five.one inches and 7 inches.
The entire world data for a totally purposeful penises are as follows. On the low conclusion it is actually 0.six inches. To the high end it is a whooping eleven.7 inches.
Can my penis sizing be elevated?
Sure. There are two greatly known and practiced surgical methods to enhance penis dimensions– the Bihari Procedure, and Fat Injection.
The Bihari Treatment consists of slicing unfastened the ligament that attaches the base in the penis to your body. This offers an adverage of concerning one particular-fifty percent and two inches of enhanced more than all length to the penis. Nonetheless, as the penis is now not secured to your persons human body an erection will no more position strait up.
Unwanted fat Injection includes removing Extra fat with the backs with the patients thighs and injecting it into your body of your penis for making the penis girth much larger (wideness). Normally the body rejects a fairly large portion of the Unwanted fat injection. This process may possibly have to be recurring quite a few moments and every Procedure carries with it a severe possibility of an infection. I strongly disagree with this particular course of action.
What on earth is circumcision and why is it accomplished?
Male circumcision is definitely the surgical elimination of your foreskin with the penis. When performed in a very healthcare facility, it is usually finished extremely shortly immediately after beginning by a performing doctor or midwife. Circumcisions are also specified to Jewish boys by a mohel inside a ceremony 8 times following delivery.
Some Islamic boys are circumcised when they're older, all around age 12 (ouch).
Many American boys are circumcised as it is actually a common exercise in at the present time and age.
The more prevalent factors for circumcision contain: greater hygiene, “regular” or
“much better” visual appeal, and “a lot of believe that his penis ought to glimpse the same as his father’s.”
Some of the extra widespread causes from circumcision contain: it really is no more necessary for hygienic motives; it is an extremely painful technique, barbaric observe; possibility of an infection or surgical mistake; “ordinary” or “improved” appearance; “his penis really should seem like his father’s.”, and “much higher sensitivity of 야짤 uncircumcised penis.”
I hope this clears up some typical misconceptions regarding the penis.

'Uncivil behaviour will not be accepted': RJD's cautionary note for workers ahead of counting
Two days ahead of the Bihar election results, the Rashtriya Janata Dal – which, in most exit polls, is projected to gain majority in the recently-held Assembly polls – on Sunday warned its workers against indiscipline on the counting day.
In a tweet addressed to its workers, the party asked them not to indulge in celebratory firing and behave decently with rivals on the day of the counting of votes on November 10, irrespective of the outcome.
"Whatever the election results are on November 10, it has to be accepted with absolute restraint, simplicity and courtesy. Improper fireworks, celebratory firing and uncivil behaviour towards our rivals or their supporters will not be accepted at any cost," the party said in a tweet roughly translated from Hindi.

the CTS Sport Sedan, the 556-horsepower CTS-V and new CTS Sport

fact that the most noticeable difference is the ever-so-slightly
larger wing mirrors of the production car.
"CTS Coupe is the new focal point of Cadillac, expressing
both our design and technical capabilities," said Bryan
Nesbitt, Cadillac general manager. "It is intended to
appeal to a new generation of car enthusiasts."
The CTS Coupe shares very little with the sedan version. The
only elements used on both cars are the headlights, front fenders,
grille and instrument panel. The coupe has the same wheelbase
as the CTS sedan, but an overall height that is approximately
two inches (51 mm) lower and an overall length that is two inches

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is under pressure after wrongly telling a number of Universal Credit (UC) claimants that they had to repay significant amounts of money, often amounting to thousands of pounds, according to the Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG).
These claimants all received Universal Credit during the pandemic, a time when they did not need to do face-to-face identity checks. As a result, DWP was cracking down on any fraudulent claimants of Universal Credit and they asked for claimants to provide evidence of ID.
If claimants were unable to provide evidence of their identity within 14 days, claimants were threatened to make Universal Credit repayments. In some cases, claimants were asked to repay all of the money that they had claimed and that figure has reached up to £13,000 in some instances.
DWP even took matters into their own hands for certain situations, asking the employers of claimants to take 20% out of a claimant’s earnings.
CPAG noted that many claimants affected had finished using Universal Credit and they were no longer checking their online journal for DWP messages.
According to the Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG), which has been helping some of those affected, many of the cases involved people who were unaware the DWP wanted retrospective evidence because they were no longer claiming universal credit, and no longer checked their online journal for DWP messages.
It has been reported that a taxi driver was ordered to repay £12,000 of payments back to DWP, despite uploading pictures of his passport and driver’s license to his UC journal. His claim was eventually terminated but the whole situation was far from ideal.
CPAG solicitor Claire Hall told The Guardian: “Just as families are getting back on their feet, many of those who lost their jobs when the pandemic first hit are being put through a second ordeal by the DWP. Despite making legitimate claims for universal credit over 18 months ago, people have now received financially devastating debt notices simply because they haven’t been able to comply with requests to verify their details quickly.”
A DWP representative said: “At the onset of the pandemic we suspended certain verification processes as we could no longer see customers face-to-face, making customers aware that we may return to seek this verification in the future.
“Those who can prove entitlement in a reasonable timeframe will not be asked to repay any money. We have a responsibility to the taxpayer to ensure public money is properly spent. Therefore it is right and lawful that we seek to recover payments that claimants were not entitled to.
“We have been unable to verify the details of these case studies, as we have not been provided with the required information; we can do so if this is provided.”

Gardening is a wonderful hobby that can bring joy and beauty to your outdoor space. A well-manicured garden is a sight to behold, but sometimes it can be difficult to keep everything looking neat and tidy. This is where garden edging comes in handy. In this article, we will discuss what garden edging is, its benefits, and how to implement it. We will also provide tips on how to rank your landscaping website so that potential customers can find your services.
What is Garden Edging?
Garden edging refers to the process of creating a boundary around your garden or flower bed. It is usually done using materials such as bricks, stones, wood, or metal. The purpose of garden edging is to keep your garden separate from the rest of your yard and to prevent weeds and grass from creeping into your garden.
Benefits of Garden Edging
There are several benefits of using garden edging in your landscaping. Firstly, it adds aesthetic value to your outdoor space. A well-defined garden edge can create a clean and polished look that can make your garden stand out.
Secondly, garden edging can help with maintenance. By creating a barrier between your garden and the rest of your yard, you can prevent grass and weeds from growing into your garden, which can save you time and effort in the long run.
Lastly, garden edging can provide a practical purpose. By using raised edging, you can create a barrier that can help prevent soil erosion, which can be particularly useful in sloped areas.
Implementing Garden Edging
Implementing garden edging is relatively easy and can be done in a weekend. Here are some steps to follow:
1. Plan your garden edging design. Decide on the materials you want to use, the height and width of the edging, and where you want to place it.
2. Prepare the area. Remove any grass, weeds, or debris from the area where you plan to install the edging.
3. Install the edging. Lay out the edging material along the perimeter of your garden bed, making sure it is level. Use stakes or bricks to secure the edging in place.
4. Backfill the edging. Fill the space between the edging and the garden bed with soil, making sure to tamp it down firmly.
5. Add finishing touches. Add mulch or decorative rocks to the garden bed to create a finished look.
Ranking Your Landscaping Website
Now that you know how to implement garden edging, it's important to know how to get your landscaping business noticed online. Here are some tips on how to rank your landscaping website:
1. Optimize your website. Make sure your website is optimized for search engines by including relevant keywords in your content and meta tags.
2. Get listed in local directories. List your business in local directories such as Google My Business, Yelp, and Angie's List.
3. Build backlinks. Reach out to other websites and ask if they will link to your website. The more reputable websites that link to your site, the better your website will rank.
4. Use social media. Use social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to promote your business and engage with potential customers.
5. Offer valuable content. Write blog posts, create videos, or offer guides that provide value to your potential customers. This can help establish your business as an authority in your industry and increase your website's visibility.
In conclusion, garden edging is an easy and effective way to add aesthetic value, improve maintenance, and provide practical benefits to your outdoor space. Implementing garden edging is simple, and by following the tips outlined in this article, you can also increase the visibility of your landscaping website and attract more customers.

(The Center Square) — For the second year in a row, the Maryland Legislature killed a bill known as the “Fairness in Girls’ Sports” bill that would disallow biological males from playing girls’ sports in junior varsity and varsity teams.
Though 25 states have seen fit to adopt a version of the bill, it hasn’t seen the same success in Maryland, where the governor designated March 31 International Transgender Day of Visibility last year.
Many were at the bill’s hearing before the House of Delegates Ways and Means Committee to speak on its behalf. Rep. Barbara Ehardt, R-Idaho Falls, who brought the original legislation after which bills like House Bill 47 are modeled and who added in testimony that Maryland’s bill was less restrictive than some of the legislation that has been passed elsewhere.
“I applaud Maryland for trying to narrow down and put this in a very small window, a very

The RBZ is set to introduce the bond notes through an export incentive facility which is supported by a $200 million Afreximbank facility.
The move is meant to provide motivation to exporters to produce more while it will also ease the liquidity challenges.
Dr Mangudya told The Herald last night that the central bank will host Mr Mkwananzi and four members of his executive this afternoon as part of their campaign entails that they also engage opinion leaders.
“We invited Mkwananzi and four members of his team to come for private dialogue. We need to ensure that they channel out the correct information about what the central bank is trying to do.
“People from all walks of life should be well informed and have correct information on the operation of bond notes while at the same time we also listen to their views for the betterment of Zimbabweans,” said Dr Mangudya.
Officials at the RBZ public relations department emphasised that the meeting would be private contrary to what Mkwananzi and other activists had posted on social media.
In a video circulated on social media, Mkwananzi together with activist Fadzayi Mahere invited people to come in their numbers to the meeting at the RBZ offices.
However, an official from the RBZ said the meeting was not open to everyone and this had been agreed to by Mkwananzi prior to him posting the video.
The official said they had even emphasised it to him when they saw the video and he agreed that only his executive will be represented.
The RBZ has started its awareness campaigns which will see it engage people from all walks of life across Zimbabwe to educate them on how the bond notes will work.
According to Finance Minister Patrick Chinamasa, the bond notes will only be released once the RBZ is satisfied by the publicity campaigns.
Dr Mangudya will be in Bulawayo to share with Parliamentarians on Saturday and with the Council of Chiefs and small scale gold miners. source-herald

And there’s a new entry there today! Kind of fun, maybe leading into something scary. I’m excited and hope you’ll check it out.
Oh, here’s a direct link! http://blog.ricbret.com/books/take-the-red-pill/
No secret to anyone about my love of this book.
So why is it news today?
This morning Nancy Duarte announced that “the multimedia version of Resonate is now available on HTML5 and iTunes for FREE! You can read, learn, and share on any platform or device.”
So stop reading this and go get it. Even if you already own the book, this is the multimedia enhanced version so you’ve got brand new levels of coolness to explore.
Some people think that because I worked for Microsoft for so many years that I’m an Apple hater. Well, that’s not actually true. Fact is, I’ve had a Macintosh on my desks, at work and home, pretty much constantly since their release in 1984, two of my family members have iPhones, and we have iPads, iPods, and Apple TVs scattered throughout the house. This is being written on a 27″ iMac, the one use for about 90% of my day.
OK, part of that 90% is in Parallels running various versions of Windows and Windows Office.
Unfortunately this post won’t help my argument that I’m an open supporter of both leading operating systems. Partially because these days I’m finding Apple so caught up in their image, their products exclusively, that they’re impressing me as a bunch of pompous jerks. Doesn’t make me automatically hate the products, but I’m no cool-aid drinking fanboy. Apple is doing plenty of crappy stuff to their customers, turning them more into consumers than unlocking their potential as creators is the big one. However, I’m getting off the point. Which is a case in point of how douchy and inept they can be.
Earlier this month I wanted to watch the Apple WWDC Opening that was streaming from Apple.Com. However, if you weren’t using Safari as your browser, you were blocked. My default browser is Google Chrome. Yeah, if you weren’t going to wear their colors to the party, they shut you down at the door.
OK, I don’t like Safari myself. Apple claims it’s the #1 installed mobile browser, but they don’t tell you that you aren’t allowed to remove it from their mobile devices, and you can’t set a different browser as preferred on their mobile devices. How’s that for anti-trust? (Remember the US Justice Department vs Microsoft for “bundling” Internet Explorer with Windows?) I think Safari is way behind Chrome in so many ways, and Chrome’s cross-platform support is superb. So I don’t use Safari. I keep it around when I have to access some non-standard Apple site, like the one in question.
So I manually fired up Safari and started watching.
I may find time soon to comment on how sad the state of design has gotten at Apple, this Ives guy really isn’t impressing me as anything more than someone trying to create a new fashion, not as a real product designer, but I’m getting off track again.
So I watched the list of features borrowed from other OS’s that Apple was rolling out as Innovations. And at some point I decided to see if there was a way to pop-out the video window, so it would take less room on my screen and I could continue to work on things that actually mattered. No button on the video, so I started hunting…
This is what I saw when I right-clicked the Safari-embedded video.
Yeah, it was like some amazing wormhole to an alternate reality had opened up on my screen. There was Safari suggesting that if I want to open this streaming QuickTime, I should use the Ten Year Old, PowerPC-only, Macintosh version of Internet Explorer.
Granted, the old app is still on my machine. But even Finder recognizes it won’t run in the current OS. If you double-click it, you get the message “You can’t open the application “Internet Explorer.app” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
I’ve kept the old app, and a couple of others, around because I’ve considered creating a virtual machine running the old PPC supporting OS X, just thinking I might write about some history there and it would be an easy way to pose the screen shots I’d need.
But this was strange, and kind of pathetic Safari. I’d almost feel sorry for you. If you weren’t such a douche.
I got a lot of good feedback on The First Thing to Do to Your New PowerPoint 2013, thanks and wow – happy to help.
So OK, here’s the second thing you should do after you install Office 2013. It’s a bitter post, full of my opinion, and I’m perfectly willing to accept that others may disagree. However, in my opinion this trick corrects one of the most ridiculous mistakes made in Office 2013. You may consider it more of a taste issue. But I think that if you have taste you’ll want your Office interface to not look like somebody’s grandpa sending e-mail with the CAPS LOCK key on.
HEY, YOU KIDS GET OFF MY LAWN!
Yeah, that’s right. For some reason the designers at Office decided that years of calming down the interface, using readability methods developed and proven literally over centuries, should be abandoned so they could inject some “style” into the product. Beware of designers attempting to make their mark.
Application design should fall back against the content, should not stand there screaming HEY LOOK AT ME, or HEY, GET OFF MY LAWN, or HERE’S A JOKE THAT ALL MY SENIOR FRIENDS THOUGHT WAS FUNNY SO I’M ADDING YOU IN MY REPLY-ALL… just for example. UI should be clear, it should be available, but not garish and hard to interpret.
So one of the first things you’ll notice looking at Office 2013 is the ribbon. The ribbon that so many hate, and the rest just find somewhat annoying. Sure it makes it easier for novices to find things, but it’s proven that the ribbon limits experts from levels of productivity they had with the prior menu UI. But we’re kind of stuck with it, and I digress. You see how easy that is.
What we’re looking at most is the tabs. The little label tabs at the top of each ribbon. And they’re all screaming like grandpa.
Well, maybe you’re not bothered by it, and hey, good for you. But there’s so much basic knowledge about how typography works, how the eye interprets words and breaks, how recognition is speeded by properly applying basic typographic conventions… all ignored here. It’s tragic really when you consider the scope of Office, how many people deal with this UI on a daily if not hourly (if not constant!) basis. There were lots of people bringing up how ugly and broken this was in the open Beta for Office 2013, but Office designers decided they knew better.
Anyway, you can fix this, calm it down. I can show you how. It’s a little tricky, so follow closely.
We’re going to go into the customize ribbon command. Right-click somewhere on the ribbon where there isn’t a button or control, and you’ll see the hidden commands. Choose Customize the ribbon and you’ll see the ribbon customization mess… er… UI.
Now, if you’re pretty perceptive you’ll notice something kinda weird.
We’re looking in the right column, a list of the ribbon titles and the controls each ribbon contains. Funny thing is, all the labels are already in initial cap case. They are not in all-capitals. The UI let’s you change the name of any of these labels, see the Rename button beneath the list, but if you want to continue using the right names you’re kind of stuck.
The developers have special-cased these label titles for each of the individual ribbons so they display in all caps if they match the intended default label. Why did they spend their time doing this instead of fixing bugs or getting good features into the product? Who can tell. We can imagine the passionate arguments the designers put forward about not allowing users to destroy the delicate balance of their screaming grandpa design, but that’s just me recalling similar conversations. Probably nothing like that. But again, digressing.
A little experimenting will show you that the labels
Home displays HOME
HoME displays HoMe
HOME displays HOME
but it’s kind of hard to get it to just display “Home.” But not impossible. Just give it some space.
Or one space to be exact
Select one of the tab labels in the list and click the Rename button. Adding a single space character, either before or after the letters “Home”, apparently is enough of a Jedi Mind Trick that the developer’s force to upper-case code is told “these are not the glyphs you’re looking for” and they pass along to be displayed unharmed. Do this to each label, and you get a nice initial cap label and a much calmer interface.
Yeah, Grandpa is still yelling FILE. If you can figure out a way to get him to calm down there, let me know.
A couple of things
You may want to do all the labels ahead of time. There are more than what are initially shown. Just open the list at the top of the right column and choose All Tabs.
Notice a bunch of items got added to the bottom of the list. These are the “contextual tabs”, tabs that show up when you select certain things, like shapes and tables, to give you control over their options.
It does take a few minutes to change all of these labels, but you’ll find the pattern is pretty easy to get used to. Might take you 15 minutes to add spaces to the end of each label. I think that’s the easier technique to use.
And don’t worry about making a mistake. If you do, you can nuke all your changes and reset the UI to the defaults again. That’s what the Reset button at the bottom is for. You can reset all, or just the selected tab.
And One Last Thing
Which leads us to the last tip here. It’s Extra Credit, so feel free to skip it.
If you’re a writer or instructor or someone who needs, occasionally, to make your UI look like it’s fresh out of the box, you can use the Import/Export UI changes command. It’s just beneath the Reset button.
This lets you save a file with all the customizations you’ve made as a file that you can reload later, even share between machines. So if you need to undo your changes and go back to the just out of the shrink-wrap smell, save your customizations, then Reset everything.
Later when you want to stop grandpa from screaming, just Import the saved settings again and you’re back to a calm, mature looking UI.
Let me know how this works for you.
This somewhat silly article is dedicated to my dear departed father, a grandfather and computer user himself, who eventually learned to just use all lower-case in writing his e-mail.
Fun Fact: Did you know that the first few versions of the Apple computer did not have the ability to display lower-case letters? The keyboards had a shift key, but it was used almost exclusively for shifting number keys to access punctuation characters. The Atari and Commodore Computers were among the first personal computers to introduce lower-case letters as a standard personal computer feature!
I’m a big fan of books. Not just the stories, but the book construction as well. From bindings, paper choice, typeset, typography, layout, it’s all interesting to me.
Mark Z. Danielewski is most famous for House of Leaves, an inventive experimental work of layered stories and typographic morphing of most everything we think of as the printed page.
In this video I do a short review of House of Leaves for those who are not familiar with the work (and to allow those familiar with it to berate and chastise me for “getting it wrong” I suspect) and then do an unboxing of his latest work The Fifty Year Sword, which comes in a unique box and exhibits some of the same traits found in House of Leaves.
I hope you enjoy, and I hope those trying to make a purchase decision on this book are aided in their decision making.
This is not a political post, although a quick reading without comprehension will surely give some that impression. Trust me, and read on.
I was reading this evening about how you can actually see people “unliking” Mitt Romney’s Facebook page in real time graphics on a web site called Disappearing Romney. It sounded pretty wild, and the graphics on the page were conceptually stunning, but the whole thing was kind of sophomoric. It looked like it might have been a prank. So I decided to check his Facebook page to see if their math checked out.
It did check out, was really easy to confirm with a couple of page refreshes. But that’s not what caught my eye.
You see, around 100 years ago I took both high school and college journalism. A lot of it stuck, writing of course, but also a lot in the area of page layout. There’s one guideline that borders on being magic in making a page and subjects on the page look appealing and interesting.
If you have a photo, or graphic, where a subject is looking in a left or right direction, place that element such that it is looking into the page, away from the edge they’re nearest. If you have to, you can consider “flipping” the element such that it can do this regardless of what side of the page it’s on.
(Pause here to note how well I’m avoiding unnecessary political metaphors. Thanks for noticing.)
Check out the original, and see what happens when you flip both the photos. It really is like a magic trick!
You always try to have faces looking into the page, it makes them look better, the page look better, and the reader feel better. In this case, we have original Mitt back-to-back, looking very disconnected, even defensive. Look at how flipping both photos around makes him look, well, happy to see himself.
Arguably the wider cover page might work in either direction, and if it were left right-facing the light sourcing for each of these photos would match up, but that’s not a big deal. I personally liked them facing each other, but your mileage may vary.
And yes, this is eminently applicable to your presentations! Ah! You knew I’d get there eventually! It’s one of the simplest things you can do to make your slides look more intriguing, trustworthy, or even happy.
Anyway, it’s not like it cost him the election or anything, but I found it really amazing that nobody on his staff, or even Facebook friends suggested fixing this classic journalistic page layout gaff.
Yes, I am available for consultations.
Warning, I’m pretty opinionated when it comes to a garish design that I have to look at for hours at a time. I find it personally offending and I’m not going to mince words here.
Luckily there’s a quick fix for PowerPoint 2013, and I’m happy to share it with you before you suffer permanent vision loss…

Innisbrook hosts inaugural event for LPGA this weekend
PALM HARBOR — Innisbrook hosts the future stars of the LPGA this weekend in the first IOA Golf Classic.
This event is on the Symetra Tour, which highlights younger golfers.
Insurance company IOA in Orlando has a three-year deal sponsoring the event.
"Tampa Bay is a great market for the LPGA," said tournament Director Tim Kramer. The LPGA chose Innisbrook in part because of a great relationship between the tour and another tournament site in Reunion, also run by Salamander Resorts, Innisbrook's parent company, he said.
"Innisbrook has been great to work with and it is a first-class facility," he said. The tournament happens Friday through Sunday on the Island Course, which has hosted big-time events before like U.S. Open qualifiers.
The 54-hole tournament has a purse of $100,000 and will feature a few local golfers.

Casino online is a gambling website where you can play real money casino games, including slots and table games, without ever leaving the comfort togel hk hari ini of your home. These sites offer a variety of different types of games, as well as an opportunity to place wagers on sporting events.
There are many different types of online casinos, each with its own unique set of rules and features. Some are more popular than others, and it is important to choose the right one for you. If you’re a new player, it is best to find an online casino that has a good selection of games and offers a great customer support team.
Online casinos can be found in most states, but only a few have yet to legalize them. Some states have a handful of options, while others like New Jersey and Pennsylvania are replete with top casino brands.
Poker, Blackjack and Baccarat
If you’re looking for a simple, easy-to-play card game that you can play on the go, then poker is the game for you. The game is available in most online casinos, and it offers a low house edge when played properly. The pay outs are also quite high, making this a highly profitable game.
Pai Gow is a fast-paced, high-stakes card game that can be played in any casino, but online versions are much more convenient. The game is also quite lucrative, and you can often earn a large payout on the bonus rounds.
Slots are another popular choice for players who want to have fun while playing casino games. These machines offer a progressive prize pool that grows as more players spin them. Depending on the machine, the jackpot can be as big as six figures.
Regardless of the type of casino game you prefer, it is essential to read the terms and conditions carefully before you start playing. If you’re not sure what you’re doing, it’s best to ask an experienced player or a member of the site’s customer service staff for advice.
Some online casinos offer a bonus to new players, usually on their first deposit or on their first few plays. These bonuses are designed to attract new players, but they can cost the casino money, so it is important to check the terms and conditions carefully.
These bonuses can be in the form of a deposit match, free spins or even cashback payments on losses. The terms and conditions of these bonuses can differ from state to state, so it is a good idea to check them out before you sign up with an online casino.
A few other types of bonuses are available, including no-deposit promotions. These are typically used as a way to attract new players and to encourage them to play at a specific casino more frequently.
Most online casino sites also offer a variety of banking methods, which can include e-wallets, Play+, mailed paper checks and even cash at an affiliated casino cage. The withdrawal times vary based on the method you use, but most methods will release your funds within 24-72 hours.

Winnie the Pooh is well known, but not like this. Winnie the Pooh creators teamed with Fragment Design, which is headed by Hiroshi Fujiwara, for a newly designed Pooh bear.
The new Winnie the Pooh is no longer yellow, but black. The red shirt he wears now is emblazoned with the Fragment design logo, and the bear has traded in the honey for an apple.
It’s a new look for Winnie the Pooh, thanks to Fragment Design and Hiroshi Fujiwara.
