Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Luca Boccassi <bluca@xxxxxxxxxx> * Package name : jitterentropy-rngd Version : 1.0.8 Upstream Author : Stephan Mueller <smueller@xxxxxxxxxx> * URL : http://www.chronox.de/jent.html * License : BSD-3-Clause OR GPL-2 Programming Lang: C Description : Jitter RNG Daemon Upstream description: "Using the Jitter RNG core, the rngd provides an entropy source that feeds into the Linux /dev/random device if its entropy runs low. It updates the /dev/random entropy estimator such that the newly provided entropy unblocks /dev/random. The seeding of /dev/random also ensures that /dev/urandom benefits from entropy. Especially during boot time, when the entropy of Linux is low, the Jitter RNGd provides a source of sufficient entropy."

Shocking Weight Loss Myth Busted
New findings published in the journal Addiction shed light on a concerning connection between smoking and the buildup of abdominal fat, particularly the deep-seated visceral fat. Led by Dr. Germán Carrasquilla, an assistant professor at the University of Copenhagen, the study reveals that both initiating smoking and persistent smoking throughout one’s life may contribute to the accumulation of visceral fat, a type of unhealthy fat linked to increased risks of stroke, heart disease, diabetes, and dementia.
Dr. Carrasquilla explains, “We’ve also observed that the type of fat that tends to increase is more likely to be visceral fat, rather than subcutaneous fat. This influence of smoking on abdominal fat appears to persist irrespective of other factors like socioeconomic status, alcohol consumption, ADHD, or risk-taking behavior.”
From a public health standpoint, these findings emphasize the urgency of widespread efforts to prevent and reduce smoking, as doing so could indirectly help mitigate the buildup of abdominal visceral fat and its associated chronic diseases. Dr. Carrasquilla adds, “By reducing one major health risk in the population, we can indirectly mitigate another major health risk.”
The researchers highlight an intriguing paradox: despite often displaying lower body weight compared to non-smokers, smokers tend to exhibit higher levels of abdominal and visceral fat. Until now, it remained uncertain whether smoking directly contributed to this visceral fat accumulation or if other factors were at play.
To address this question, the Copenhagen-based researchers utilized advanced statistical analysis techniques. They analyzed data from various genetic studies to establish a potential causal link between smoking and increased abdominal fat, also known as abdominal adiposity. By identifying genes associated with smoking habits and body fat distribution, they aimed to determine whether individuals with these genes exhibited differences in body fat distribution. Importantly, they controlled for potential confounding factors such as socioeconomic status and alcohol consumption.
Their analysis revealed that both initiating smoking and continued smoking over time may indeed play a causal role in increasing abdominal adiposity, as indicated by a higher waist-to-hip ratio. While the study did not find a direct association between smoking intensity and abdominal fat distribution, it suggested that higher abdominal adiposity could lead to increased smoking intensity.
Dr. Jonathan Klein, a physician specializing in tobacco control at Stanford University, underscores the significance of these findings. He notes that the study confirms the direct impact of tobacco and nicotine on inflammatory pathways linked to abdominal fat accumulation, dispelling the notion that genetic or familial factors alone drive this phenomenon.
It’s important to recognize the profound impact of smoking on public health. In the United States alone, over 28 million individuals smoke cigarettes, making smoking the leading cause of preventable diseases and death, claiming over 480,000 lives annually. However, quitting smoking can pose challenges, as it may lead to weight gain due to increased appetite and decreased metabolism resulting from nicotine withdrawal.
Despite the misconceptions perpetuated by tobacco advertising, smoking does not inherently lead to slimness. Instead, the industry has propagated an image of thinness to mask the reality of increased fat accumulation associated with smoking. Klein explains that quitting smoking can sometimes result in weight gain due to food cravings and the oral fixation associated with smoking cessation.
In essence, smoking poses a significant threat to health, affecting nearly every organ in the body and contributing to a range of chronic diseases. The findings of this study underscore the urgent need for effective smoking cessation interventions to combat not only smoking-related diseases but also the accumulation of abdominal visceral fat and its associated health risks.

What is Uno?
UNO is an easy-to-learn card game that can be enjoyed by a large group of people. The goal is to be the first player to get rid of all their cards. During the game, players match their cards with ones on the Discard pile by color or number, and can also play special action cards to change up the gameplay like Skip and Draw Two cards. When you have only one card left in your hand, don’t forget to yell “UNO!” and you’ll be on your way to winning the game. So grab a few friends and start playing today!
Rules of Playing Uno at VN88
When the game starts, every player is handed a hand of 7 cards taken from a 108-card deck. If one individual holds all +2 and +4 values cards, they will dodge drawing 2 or 4 more extra cards respectively; however, this would mean that the next participant must draw twice as many to fill their own hand so on until it reaches the last person.
- If A plays a +2 card to B then B must draw 2 cards.
- If B also has a +2 then play for C and C will have to draw 4 cards.
- If C has a +4 card and plays to D then D will have to draw 8 cards… and so on until the last person and until the end of the hand.
With a +2 or +4 card, the player is fortunate enough to have their turn extended and avoid drawing any extra cards. Instead, those cards get passed on to the next person in line – an added bonus if luck is indeed smiling upon them!
- If A discards a +2 card to B, then B must draw 2 cards.
- If B also has a +2 card it can be dropped for C and C will have to draw 4 cards.
- If C also has a +2 and drops it, D will have to draw 6 cards.
- If D hits, the next player has to draw 8 cards… until the last one

- Reverse Cards: Change direction. If you are hitting clockwise, you can hit counterclockwise (counterclockwise)
- Draw 2 Cards (Card +2): When the player plays this card down, the next player must draw 2 more cards.
- Wild Cards: With this card, the player can play any card and choose any 4 colors. At the same time, the next person must play cards according to the color you call out.
- Wild Draw 4 Cards (Card + 4): You will be played on any card and choose any 4 colors. The next player must play according to the color you call out, and that person must draw 4 cards.
How to Calculate Points in UNO:
- Cards have a value from 0 to 9: The score corresponds to the number on the card.
- Draw 2 cards with a score of 20 points.
- The Reverse card has a score of 20 points.
- Skip cards have a score of 20 points.
- Wild cards have a score of 50 points.
- The Wild Draw 4 cards have a score of 50 points.
How to Play Uno Easy to Win at VN88
Playing Uno at VN88 is easy and fun! With just a few simple steps, you can be playing the classic card game in no time.
First, you’ll need to set up the game. Gather your friends or family together and make sure everyone has an equal number of cards. Once everyone has their cards, it’s time to start playing.
The goal of Uno is to be the first person to get rid of all their cards. To do this, each player must match their card with one on the discard pile by either color or number. If they don’t have a matching card, they must draw from the deck until web series review they find one that matches.
Action cards are also important in Uno. These include Skip, Reverse, Draw Two, and Wild Cards which can help you win the game faster. For example, if you play a Skip card on your opponent, they will miss their turn and it will be your turn again immediately after. Similarly, if you play a Draw Two card on your opponent, they must draw two cards from the deck before it’s their turn again.
Finally, when you only have one card left in your hand remember to call out “UNO” so that other players know that you are close to winning!

According to the experience of professional players, if you are a beginner before joining, you cannot ignore the tips we have summarized and summarized below to quickly win:
Double Hit at The Right Time

With this clever trick in your back pocket, you’ll be more likely to win!
Use Special Cards Properly

Airship Syndicate’s Ruined King: A League of Legends Story received some new details last month along with an “early 2021” release window. However, more time is required for development with publisher Riot Forge announcing a delay. The RPG is now simply slated for 2021, which means it could launch at any time next year.
On Twitter, Riot Forge spoke about the “number of challenges for all of us that have been outside of our control,” likely referencing this year’s COVID-19 pandemic. In light of that, the company has made some “adjustments” for its timelines and will release Ruined King sometime next year. Of course, expect more information, gameplay footage and an official announcement leading up to its new release date.
Ruined King: A League of Legends Story is a turn-based role-playing game featuring popular champions like Yasuo, Ahri, Miss Fortune, Braum, Pyke and Illaoi as they battle a new foe. It’s currently in development for Xbox One, PS4, PC and Nintendo Switch along with Xbox Series X/S and PS5 (with previous-gen owners receiving free upgrades). Stay tuned for more updates in the meantime.

Beyond His Bright Shadow
This morning I stand early —
by dusk will have traveled long,
though my feet are anchored here alone.
I know the world cast stark and plain
by the light of a single lantern,
and it thus knows of my soul as well.
My shadowed form is crisp and clear,
and reaches out in giant form
to touch the silent heart of everything.
The unseen rain is a presence
without falling or touching down,
and I drink it in through osmosis.
The universe does not exist
except by shadows and memory
carved into forever even now.
I move my hand — a gesture,
and my spirit echoes in flowers
protected from this false dawn.
I take a single baby step
and my imagined warrior form
races out to smite sure hidden foe.
It would seem that my magic reach
is limited by this deception,
but I know, in faith, the truth and all.
The sun will soon be-crest the hill
and mask my shadow in brilliance,
that others can avert their gaze.
But the effect of my presence
will remain and extend beyond,
lit by the divine flame within.
Your flame, not mine will be profound,
but only have meaning though sharing,
that which I cannot do alone.
And you need not look back in fear,
but accept that you cast one too,
an unseen touch of self by me.
Each by each we extend our souls,
not through action, plan or greed,
but by dancing close to such as we.

Surbhi, Seerat Kapoor to team up with Allu Sirish
Chennai, March 15 (IANS) Actress Surbhi and Seerat Kapoor are set to team up with actor Allu Sirish in his upcoming yet-untitled Telugu science-fiction thriller, a source in the know said.
“Surbhi has already been signed. Seerat, on the other hand, is yet to officially sign it because she is trying to adjust dates. But she is most likely to come on board because she is very excited about the project and has even given verbal nod,” a source from the film’s unit told IANS.
To be directed by Vi Anand, the project’s regular shooting is expected to begin later this month. The film also stars Srinivas Avasarla in a pivotal role.
It was the script that immediately earned Sirish’s nod.
“Sirish is also a huge fan of science-fiction. He’s been waiting to work in this genre in a truly futuristic script. When he heard the narration, he jumped at the opportunity. He even wanted to start work right away but due to his Malayalam film he had to push the shoot,” the source said.
In his Malayalam debut “1971: Beyond Borders”, Sirish plays a tank commander and he shares screen space with Mohanlal.
Mani Sharma has been roped in to compose music for Anand’s project, while the rest of the cast and crew are in the process of being finalised.
The film will be bankrolled by Chakri Chigurupati.

For the sake of this blog post actually going somewhere, let’s just put a pin in the notion that we can’t talk about mental health and pretend for a second that we can. Or, let’s be even more risqué and talk about mental health in relation to art, because that’s really what I’m interested in right now.
After reading an article recently, I discovered that rates of mental health issues, namely things such as depression, are typically higher in the artistic community.
Answers on a post card, please.
I don’t know why. I don’t know if the bits of our brains that make us creative also somehow make us nutty on the odd occasion; or whether what we’re doing with our lives, namely creating art, somehow drives us crazy. I don’t know if it’s part and parcel of doing what we do that eventually chips away at the logical bits of our brains until we think in colours and speak in smells, and somehow get away with calling it art.
I don’t even know if art does make us crazy (completely flippant use of that word by the way, I’m not at all insinuating that anyone suffering from depression, or any type of mental health problem, should be branded as a nut-bag and thrown in a padded cell - I’m merely being colloquial), or if maybe crazy people just happen to make art.
But then what about people suffering from mental health problems who don’t make art? Or people who are artistic, but don’t make a career out of it, and therefore don’t suffer from mental health problems? There are so many variations to consider in this field of conversation, is it even possible to try and isolate a reason why artists might suffer more from mental health issues than any other type of person? Is it even fair to try and do that? Are we effectively insinuating that there is some kind of prerequisite here? Are we therefore banishing people with fully-functioning mental health to an un-artistic life? Is there even such a thing is someone with a fully-functioning state of mental health, or is that an urban myth?
I don’t know. But I’d like to.
I suppose ultimately my concern here is that stigma is being attached to mental health issues, which is then being attached to the artistic community - which is particularly frustrating given that neither of the things above warrant any kind of negative stigma. At all. Not even a little bit.
For anyone who is aware of stereotypes, you’ll be more than aware that there are some fairly unsavoury ones for people who are considered to be artistic. One of which - perhaps one of the most popular and well-known ones - is that they are somehow unhinged. Where did this come from? Okay, Van Gogh probably didn’t do us all any favours with that one, but are the archetypal artists who came and went years before us really the point of reference for anyone who paints, writes, or makes music in this present era? It hardly seems fair, and I’m not convinced it’s accurate. Okay, maybe that should read entirely accurate. Continuing with where this stigma comes from, I also can’t help but wonder whether it’s from the people who are close to these artists. Everyone loves it when they’re being painted, or written about, but when you break someone’s heart and instead of developing your character they start planning how to kill you off, suddenly they’re unhinged, unhappy, unstable. Has that contributed to the stigma; that instead of moving on from troubling things in our lives, we must first document them and share them, often causing deep upset for the person who inspired the work itself? Maybe that’s worth considering more for part two of this feature.
It has often been suggested that writing can be a great help to those suffering with mental health problems, offering a safe and constructive outlet, despite the writing itself being a troubling read should you stumble across it three years later. Nevertheless, artistic acts have been said to be very therapeutic for those suffering through a time of mental turbulence. So where is the line between art helping, and art being the cause, if indeed art is the cause at all for any type of mental health problem? Perhaps it isn’t. Perhaps it’s merely stigma, rolled into stereotype, rolled (sort of) into reality, and now people are forced to accept that writers and their fellow artistic comrades are just a little quirky - an infinitely more flattering and altogether acceptable word to use, as opposed to ‘crazy’.
Furthermore, the continued investigations and discussions relating to an implied compartmentalisation of the writer’s psyche may have perhaps contributed to this further. This idea that we are somehow more than one person: the writer and the human. A fascinating idea that is developed wonderfully in Margaret Atwood’s Negotiating With The Dead, for anyone who is interested in reading more about the idea. But I think I’ll probably leave that one for part three…

July is UV Safety Month. Most skin cancers are caused by too much exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays. Most of this exposure comes from the sun, but some can come from man-made sources, such as indoor tanning beds and sun lamps. People who get a lot of exposure to UV rays are at greater risk for skin cancer.
The main types of UV rays that can affect your skin include UVA rays and UVB rays. UVB rays have more energy and are a more potent cause of at least some skin cancers, but both UVA and UVB rays can damage skin and cause skin cancer. There are no safe UV rays.

Wheat output will match last year’s outputFebruary 11th, 2009 - 6:25 pm ICT by IANS
Kolkata, Feb 11 (IANS) Wheat output this fiscal would match last year’s level of 78.4 million tonnes following recent rains in northern India, a top official said here Wednesday.
“There has been improvement in the prospect of wheat crop yield after the rains, which has brought down the temperature. We now expect to match last year’s output,” said Department of Agriculture and Cooperation secretary T. Nand Kumar on the sidelines of a seminar on agri-business.
Sowing season of wheat has ended in India, the second biggest producer of the crop in the world.
Temperature in the country’s wheat-growing areas in January was two-three degrees above normal, which had created the possibility of lower yield this fiscal, Nand Kumar said.
However, parts of Rajasthan and Punjab received widespread to scattered rains during mid-January, brightening output prospects.
Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Bihar are the major wheat-growing states.
The official said above normal temperature could impact overall rabi output particularly in those areas with poor or no irrigation facilities.
Rabi crop is the spring harvest and is also known as the “winter crop” in India and Pakistan.

Hey there, time traveller! This article was published 1/3/2014 (1417 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — For a team that has struggled mightily with consistency for most of its existence, the Winnipeg Jets have apparently discovered one building block for the future.
They are good penalty killers.
On the road, they are the NHL's best this season, and it was a major factor in Saturday's 3-1 victory in Nashville's Bridgestone Arena.
The Jets marched in here and gave six power-play opportunities to a team that scored three power-play goals on Thursday night.
The Predators, though, couldn't crack the Jets with the man advantage.
"I think we feel comfortable," said Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec, who had to bear down against five minutes nine seconds of Nashville power-play time in the first period alone. "We know what we're doing. When one guy pressures, everybody's going. They block shots. That's a part of the game and how you win games and we've been good at it."
So good lately, in fact, Winnipeg has now killed off 33 straight opposition advantages on the road.
The last time the Jets surrendered a power-play goal on the road was Jan. 21 in Anaheim, and they have given up just two in 12 games in 2014.
Those numbers contribute to a league-best 88.2 per cent efficiency on the road and an overall 84.6 per cent rating, which is No. 6 among the 30 teams.
"I think we're picking our spots and we're getting some great goaltending," Jets captain Andrew Ladd said. "I think at the end of the day Pavo has been our best penalty killer."
The Jets have simply played strong against opposition power plays. They continue to churn along in the NHL's top five in hits and top four in blocked shots. They are third on the road in blocked shots.
And these things have all been factors in improving to 15-15-2 on the road by going 6-2-1 in the last nine games.
Of course, Saturday's lopsided chart in advantages was not the Jets' plan, even though it's a strength.
"We didn't have any interest in playing with that fire," Jets coach Paul Maurice said. "We'll take a look at the ones, the penalties we have to avoid taking, and we also have to recognize that our penalty kill's been pretty darn good, most of all because we seem to get a lot of opportunities to work on it."
In that, Maurice is correct.
Winnipeg is running at a deficit — time on the power play versus time on the penalty kill — away from home of more than 35 minutes this season, and that's among the six highest teams in this category.
The Jets are on an eight-game streak where they have not been the team with more power-play chances or minutes in a road game.
And while they don't have much interest, as Maurice said, of continuing that trend, there are almost no burn marks at all for playing with the fire.

Windsor’s newest business incubator could be in a church, and the companies based there will have to have a conscience.
The United Church of Canada is joining with the University of Windsor’s EPICentre, technology accelerator WEtech Alliance and the Windsor Essex Community Foundation to launch a new kind of innovation hub.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
Businesses, non-profit groups, church and community members will meet Aug. 2 to study the foundation’s latest Vital Signs report on life in Windsor, identify the city’s needs and discuss solutions.
That will be followed by the real event Nov. 30 at the EPICentre, when a panel of judges from businesses, charities and the church will hear pitches for new companies to address local issues. It’s like Dragons’ Den for the socially conscious.
There doesn’t have to be anything sacred about the proposals. But they must be financially viable, and most important, they must benefit the neighbourhood or the city or even the world.
“It has to have social impact,” said Carla Leon, manager of new initiatives for Edge, the United Church’s innovation team.
It could be a company that serves people with low incomes or youth or seniors or a company that deals with the environment.
“We want to be wildly, radically open,” said Leon. “If we’re trying to inspire people, saying no doesn’t make sense.”
Five winners will receive between $500 and $1,500 each for their start-ups plus a mentor, access to legal support and other support, such as help designing a website or crowdfunding. The top 10 proposals will be offered space in a new community innovation hub in a local church.
“If someone has a really great idea, let’s give them the capacity and support to get their big idea off the ground,” said Leon.
Proposals elsewhere have included employing low income mothers to make baby blankets in their homes so they don’t need child care. For each blanket sold, the company would donate diapers to mothers in need. Another company would do renovations for seniors to allow them to continue living independently in their homes. Two University of Waterloo students created and tested a machine to deactivate landmines without having to go near them or detonate them.
Two United churches, in Markham and Orillia, have already established community innovation hubs. Each one has 12 small businesses. Three more hubs, in Scarborough, Richmond Hill and downtown Toronto, are expected to be launched this fall.
It’s all part of the United Church’s attempt to engage young people and broaden its role in the community.
“We look at social innovation as church,” said Leon. “They’re very much linked.”
Churches traditionally fed the poor and cared for the sick. Then, they came to be known primarily as places to worship on Sundays.
But simply going to church on Sundays isn’t necessarily being faithful, said Leon.
It’s “living out what it is to be a good person, understanding that can be Monday to Saturday as well,” she said. “We’re just reclaiming our roots and realizing that church is more than Sundays.”
The church is also discovering that young people don’t want to just donate money. They want to do good.
“They actually want to be part of it,” said Leon. “They want to own it.”
Michelle Nevett, a health and social innovation researcher at EPICentre, sees that among students at the university.
“We want to show them they can start their own businesses with that social goal in mind and still make money,” she said. “It’s turning a profit and doing good.”
It’s “a job with a purpose,” said Cathy Mombourquette, WEtech’s social innovation director.
“People say, ‘I don’t want to make money doing this,'” she said. “We say you need to make money because if you don’t, you’ll have to go get a full-time job.”
It’s also a way for the church to use buildings left partially empty because of dwindling attendance.
“We already have the infrastructure,” said Leon. “Why not provide this?”
This, too, has been a traditional role for the church, she said. A century ago, the church was where the community gathered for all sorts of activities.
“We want to try to be that hub again,” she said.
Ten churches in Windsor are available to host hubs. Leon won’t say which ones they are yet.
For the city, it’s another avenue for economic development. The businesses will create jobs, bring in money and help drive the economy.
It’s also a way to keep the community’s young people, said Nevett. Social enterprise is big in London, Toronto and Ottawa. If millennials see it’s happening here, she said, “they’ll likely want to be part of it and stay here.”

Bahrain refutes Danish Premier's comments
Manama, April 11, 2012
Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt's comments that Abdulhadi Al Khawaja's condition is critical is a baseless 'pack of lies', said a report.
She earlier said that according to information available Al Khawaja was in a critical condition and called for his release, according to a report in our sister publication Akhbar Al Khaleej.
Clearly the Danish premier has no idea about Al Khawaja's condition and the information she says she has is baseless or she is deliberately making misleading statements to justify her unacceptable intervention in Bahrain's internal affairs, the paper said.
A statement by chief prosecutor Abdulrahman Al Sayed, reported in yesterday's newspapers, on an international medical commission's report on Al Khawaja's health, would provide her with a true picture of his health.
Moreover, the Danish premier has no right to intervene in Bahrain's internal affairs as the Foreign Ministry pointed out in its statement yesterday (April 10). – TradeArabia News Service

The Super Zeroes and Electric Ferrets at the Double Down, Saturday Feb 13, 2016
LA's way-out punk/garage rockers the Electric Ferrets have reunited and to honor the occasion, former Electric Ferret/current Super Zero Santo Kevin brought them out to Vegas for their first reunion show at Vegas's version of Al's Bar or Rajis, the Double Down Saloon.
The Super Zeroes opened the night with their own Marvel-esque brand super-hero rock'n'roll - a mix of punk, pop and rock and songs about the Incredible Hulk and their own re-make of the Spiderman theme. Their rhythm section has changed since the last time that I saw them and they are tighter and work more with dynamics and guitar tones. Dug the little "homages" to Nugent and the Dictators in a couple of the numbers.
The Electric Ferrets are now Greg (vocals) and Flying Ike (guitar/vocals) along with new rhythm section Todd (bass) and Gizz (drums) and are also tighter and more cohesive than ever before - but still crazy fun and silly punk-rock with garage overtones. I recognized some of the older numbers - "Into My Brain", "Elvis is King", "2-3-4", etc. - and they did a couple of high-energy covers like "Wichita Lineman", "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds", and the 60' classic "Voices Green and Purple" (which they meld with Kiss' "Detroit Rock City" somehow - but it works!). The rhythm section smokes, Ike is playing and sounding better than ever and Greg is still a wildman on stage, though, as with us all, he has slowed down a little - but just a little! The new songs fit in fine, like "Is There Another Day" (with some cool 7th chords) and the surfy "Ride the Wave", where Ike rocked out some "Miserlou" licks and Greg passed out stickers and CDs to the audience.

By Glazyl Y. Masculino
BACOLOD City – The city government is no longer pushing its proposed plan of entering a public-private partnership (PPP) scheme for the construction of the Burgos Public Market here.
This, after the city government and the Yanson family, which owns a two-hectare property in Barangay 19 beside the existing market, did not reach an agreement.
Instead, the city plans to buy the property as a new site for the permanent market, according to Mayor Alfredo “Albee” Benitez.
Benitez said they are negotiating the price with the Yanson family, as the property is being sold at P920 million.
“All it needs is a go signal from them. Kung mag agree na kami sa price. It will not take more than a month, makasugod kita,” Benitez said.
Benitez said the city is targeting to start the construction of the new market by first quarter of this year. A budget of P525 million was allocated for the said project, which is part of the city’s loan.
Earlier, the city planned to allocate P160 million for a temporary site for the market vendors once the construction of the new market begins.
But, with the said development, the mayor said that the city could save P160 million as they will proceed with the construction of a permanent market without disrupting the livelihood of the vendors in the existing market.
Benitez said that market vendors will not be affected because they will no longer have to transfer to a temporary site.
He added that the city can even use the budget for the supposed temporary site to buy additional land.
“We can just build a permanent market. Bisan one year pa na construction, there’s no disruption on their livelihood,” he said.
Benitez said they will make Burgos Public Market one of the centers of commerce in the city, as it will have enough facilities and spaces to promote commercial activities.
The Burgos Public Market is one of the three major public markets here situated in the northern part of this city.
The concept of the new two-story Burgos market includes a terminal for Granada and Alangilan routes, a covered parking space, a food court, and additional stalls. The project is expected to be completed in 18 months.


Several State Questions have support while many remain uninformed on others
The most recent SoonerPoll asked about eight of the 11 state questions on the Nov. 2 general election ballot, most of which are in good standing with the public.
State Question 751, a measure that would make English the official language of Oklahoma, received the most support with 84.9 percent of those polled in favor.
SQ 746, a measure that would require Oklahomans to show a valid state or government issued photo ID when voting, also received a large amount of support with 76.1 percent of respondents in favor.
Though support for SQ 746 is high, some still argue that requiring an ID check would suppress voting, especially among lower income and minority voters who generally associate with the Democratic Party.� Further analysis reveals that while the measure is supported by 81.3 percent of Independents and 79.1 percent of Republicans, slightly fewer, 72.8 percent, Democrats support SQ 746.
SQ 747, which would allow voters to set term limits on secondary statewide offices such as Lt. Governor, State Auditor, Attorney General, and State Treasurer, has also received a wide spread support from 69 percent of respondents.
The demographic breakdown of support for SQ 747 reveals that the measure is supported by 75.5 percent of Republicans, 68.8 percent of Independents and 63 percent of Democrats.
Oklahomans also support SQ 757, which increases the amount of surplus money the state puts in the Rainy Day Fund from 10 percent to 15 percent, with 53.1 percent of respondents in favor.
As the number of undecided voters increases, races become harder to predict, as is the case with both SQ 750 and SQ 755.
Though SQ 750, which makes it easier to get an initiative petition on the ballot by reducing the number of signatures required, has more opposition than support in the most recent poll, 20.5 percent remain undecided, making it a close race.
Similarly SQ 755, which would forbid state courts from considering international law or Sharia Law when deciding cases, has more support than opposition, but with 30.4 percent still undecided it also becomes a close race.
SoonerPoll also polled SQ 744 and SQ 754 and found that many oppose SQ 744 while SQ 754 has a large undecided population which makes it a close race.
SoonerPoll.com, Oklahoma�s Public Opinion Pollster, commissioned and conducted the scientific study using live interviewers by telephone of 352 likely voters from Oct. 3 � Oct. 7, 2010. The study has a margin of error of � 5.2 percent.

Another one best feature of Hulu is it lets you continue to watch movies from the exact point where you left off on another device i. It contains thousands of movies and hundreds of titles that can be watched for free. With the addon, you can enjoy the wide variety of on-demand content, as well as get streams for live events. This app is developed by Screen Media Films so this is among legal movie apps for Android. The addon is quite easy to explore thanks to its magnificent interface. This makes it all too easy to run out of room for more apps.
There is also a beta version in case you want to try out the latest features. The interface is a little old school for our tastes. YouTube YouTube is the largest video hosting site in the world. It works like a tool which supports some popular movie streaming sites, including PutLocker, DaClips, GorillaVid, SockShare, NovaNow, VidxDen and many more. You will get access to a ton of original programming plus a steady stream of new and old Hollywood flicks. That leads to one thing: crappy Internet.
The addon is a result of a collaboration between more than 10 developers, and it combines more than 30 individual addons under one roof! One of the biggest differences between Roku and Android devices is the software. Kingbox runs the latest Android 7. Most video player apps can play the most popular video codecs without issues. Wynk Movies Wynk Movies is a service by Airtel for Airtel users and it has a huge number of movies available from Hollywood, Bollywood and more. The Exodus, moreover, would be reborn even better a few months later.
Top 5 Best Free Movie App for Android- Free Android Streaming App There are many movie app for Android, but all are not good. Showbox app has been around for more than 5 years and all this time this app works flawlessly when it comes to watching movies and tv shows. It also supports both 2. Though the service is paid, but it is worth the price when you are getting so much in return. The addon has become very popular due to its reliability and wide range of content. But the newest version of this software has a lot of features and you can enjoy Cloud Sync or Folder Sync as well as the many more features that will most certainly enhance your viewing pleasure. The free version is a trial.
Let me give you some numbers: There are around 15 billion connected devices in the world right now. This allowed Plex to come in and steal a lot of Kodi users with its more professional interface Plex has its own problems though. The Plex allows you to view and manage your media through a multidimensional interface. There is no need to pay anything extra for the service since the service is completely free to use with your Jio account. My True Media has been given an exclusive 57% discount for our readers to use in May 2019.
With Masterani Redux, you will get a huge library that contains dubbed and subbed anime. LibreTorrent is an open source torrent app with all of the basics. Once you open this app, you will see a list of all the available movies according to the genre, which makes searching the movies easy and convenient for the users. Thanks for bringing this up. It features the Linvo Database that makes sure that the data is properly arranged on each device.
However, most of these streaming services require a paid subscription. The home screen is basically a board menu with the recommended content and in the discovery menu, you can choose series, shows, and movies separately. We neither sell nor distribute any services or products. This Sony-owned entity offers a wide range of content for its users ranging from documentaries to full blown feature-length cinema. But when it comes to streaming movies, Roku has the market cornered.
But given the amount of apps that are out there, new customers might be spoilt for choice in many situations. Want to learn more about Stremio? One of the most popular streaming sites out there, along with Netflix and Hulu, Prime Video subscription tiers are somewhat confusing. There really isn't much wrong with this one. The video quality is decent and good enough to watch on a bigger screen. This is basically an over-the-top media service which offers full-length ad-supported movie streaming for free. It is easy to use.
The Blamo Repo was taken down, and the addon is now maintained by different developers. It doesn't have the ability to recognize legally licensed streams or user rights to copies of legally purchased media. BitTorrent and µTorrent are two torrent apps by the same developer. Many sites jumped at the chance to report ShowBox down and not working, which just added to the confusion. It's usually the path of least resistance.
It allows you to watch videos in 240p, 360p, 720p, 1080, and 4K resolution. I accept I might not have looked hard enough though. We are not responsible for the legality, accuracy, decency or compliance of the content streamed on these softwares. This is another area where Roku excels, working closely with sporting apps to provide a better experience. You will be responsible for the information you choose to use and the modifications you choose to do on your device. It provides a file explorer tool through which you can locate your media file.

We ran square at 8-11 knots, rolling and lurching sickeningly in steep seas coming from every which way. I had about 40 sq ft of yankee unrolled and pulled in hard with both sheets. I haven’t used the yankee partially furled before because I don’t like the loads put on the leech and foot, but the thought of going forward to set the storm staysail was not appealing.
Canal Messier has a 5 mile wide entrance and a lighthouse, but still, we were rushing down onto an unfamiliar lee shore in the dark at 9 knots. A bit of a worry. Especially when there is so much confusion about latitudes and longitudes in these waters. The C-map plotter cannot be trusted – it, the Admiralty Pilot, the Mantellero guide and most of our paper charts put San Pedro light 2 miles from its GPS position. Given the extensive, lethal shoals to the west of the light, this is unsettling. We chose to accept the RCC Guide and the Ardrizzi book positions while waiting for radar contact. I was glad indeed when the little green fluoro smudge appeared on cue. Ardrizzi and RCC are right.
The seas improved immediately we passed San Pedro light into Canal Messier. By now it was pitch black but we groped our way along the lee side of Isla Schroder until we found the entrance to Caleta Ideal on radar. We entered and anchored in the middle of a circle of green radar flourescence without the faintest idea of what it would look like by day.
During the course of yesterday the barometer fell over 15 millibars. On this morning’s Patagonia Net a number of yachts commented on yesterday’s winds. Even Wolfgang and Gaby had to forego their balcony breakfast at Villarica. But here the sun is out, the waters of the caleta smooth and the boat is dry. The barometer is rising. The low, wooded shores ring with bird calls.
Total damage – one lost oar. Lessons – radar is wonderful, Golfo de Penas is not a nice place, and “Tainui” is a splendid sea boat.

Honest Thoughts & Opinions


It is a paradoxical development: even Though cheap Smartphones are getting better and better, shooting at the same time, the prices of the Premium models in the height. The latest sales figures show that customers can’t take it anymore. Especially smaller manufacturers, such as Sony and LG represents the end of the boom before real problems. The industry needs to rethink.
The customers have done long ago. Smartphones were a few years ago, still imperfect luxury products, which triggered every year with new Features enthusiasm, you will excitement for a long time. The Smartphone was disenchanted as an everyday object, for the vast majority of customers deep in the pocket want to reach – and it is also no longer need to.
first-quarter figures for Apple and the iPhone: Tim Cook rips and tears the helm Of Malte Mansholt Cheap good
is already a few years ago a budget Smartphone meant a lot of compromises: Useless camera, lousy operational tempo, poor workmanship. Who wanted a chic and well-to-use device, had to pay for that, too. Who division, soon had to buy new. And even with stainless appliances the successor were due to the constant flow of new features for customers still tempting.
Those days are long gone – much to the Suffering of the manufacturer. Because the development in the last few years had to offer up on a giant displays, and (still) better cameras little to keep the customers your Smartphone is now significantly above the long-usual two-year rhythm also. And because now devices are sufficient under 200 Euro for most customers, they also much less money.

groaning, The result can be. in the most recent quarter, the industry figures see: With the exception of Huawei all the major manufacturers have lost much of their revenues from the Smartphone business, with market leader Samsung’s sales crashed by over 40 percent, even though more units were sold The clear reason for this: The former sale, the guarantors, the stainless-series Galaxy S and Galaxy Note, they no longer went in the approaches so often over the counter as before.
Similar Figures, other manufacturers supply. During the break-in at the Apple with 12 per cent moderate, but still painful, action LG (almost 30 percent) and Sony (21 percent) with significantly larger losses. Together, especially one of the manufacturers: they put the largest advertising effort in extremely expensive equipment.
there may be two reasons for this: firstly, the manufacturers are trying very hard to get the hard-earned reputation as a Premium brand. After all, nothing is worse for the business, as the perception of being cheap. The elaborate flagship devices also serve to show that We can. On the other, at least some firms are likely to have a Problem with that, the former money printing machines to let go. In contrast to the cheap sector of the Premium range sheds are still significantly higher margins. Just: you have to sell the devices first.

At duration will remain the manufacturers little choice but to adapt to the changes – and to think the strategy drastically new. Is the about at Apple: The Hardware group for years it has been the Service division. The stated goal: by 2020, 50 billion dollars are to be retracted in the year with services. This was once considered very ambitious current brand is within reach. Just announced in the last three months, with 11 billion with the Service Department can be taken. From the autumn of service, a games subscription and a credit card, additional potential revenue sources with a Streaming.
In the case of Samsung it is, however, another way. After the giant group, limited for Smartphone innovations long on its top, came in last time more and more low-cost models that offered innovative features such as a fold-out camera. In fact, these models were sold very well – brought, however, because of the low price, significantly less money in the cash register.

get the strategy with cheap phones and works, showed in addition to the Chinese Smartphone brands, also the Nokia-edition. HMD Global, the acquisition of Nokia’s Smartphone licenses from Microsoft, focused on the return of the former mobile phone king’s first full-on entry – level and mid-range models. Later on, the company brought out at all – in comparison, still quite cheap – Premium-models. The strategy is Now HMD is among the ten most important manufacturers in the market, selling more devices than Sony. The psychological advantage of HMD: The brand no longer saw himself as a luxury. To the idea, the other companies will still need to get used to.

I love cantaloupe. When it’s available in abundance, we eat it almost daily. My farm share contained two cantaloupes last week. Yipee! I decided to use them to make cantaloupe ice cream.
Easier said than done. I’ve eaten cantaloupe sorbet (in Krakow, Poland), which was out of this world delicious, but it no doubt contained a lot of sugar. Since I’ve kicked refined sugar out of my life, I challenged myself to make a cantaloupe ice cream with no added sugar
Of course, I couldn’t use cream, the base for all great ice creams. What to do? I used my old standby, cashew cream, which is thick, creamy and freezes well. I blended the cashew cream with cantaloupe in my Vitamix, but the result was disappointing. Not sweet enough, and it didn’t taste enough like cantaloupe.
Without added sugar, the fragile cantaloupe flavor slips away. I found that vegetable glycerin, plus stevia, plus erythritol and a small amount of maple syrup yields the best flavor. I add a little fresh lemon juice to give the ice cream an acid boost. Don’t overdo the lemon juice, or the ice cream will separate.
My ice cream maker has grown legs and wandered away (it’s likely hiding somewhere in my attic), so I poured the blended cantaloupe cream into ice cube trays and keep them frozen until I’m ready to serve an icy summer dessert. I put the frozen cubes of cantaloupe ice cream back into the blender, and blend them to a smooth, soft-serve consistency, which I serve immediately, garnished with a sprig of fresh mint.
Dairy-Free Cantaloupe Ice Cream
Icy and creamy, this summer dessert is made with cashew cream and fresh cantaloupe.
- 1 whole cantaloupe, seeded and cubed
- 3/4 cup cashew cream
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol
- 1 teaspoon liquid stevia
- 2 tablespoons vegetable glycerin
- pinch sea salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh mint leaves, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Put all ingredients into a blender, and blend until smooth.
Pour into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions.
Keep ice cream in freezer in a tightly sealed container.
Or pour the cantaloupe mixture into ice cube trays, and freeze.
When ready to serve, put cubes into blender, and blend until creamy.
Serve garnished with fresh mint leaves.

For many, flexibility is about enjoying life to the fullest. By spending just a few minutes a day increasing your range of motion, you can reduce your risk of injury while exercising, traveling, or playing with your grandchildren. You can feel less stiff and more comfortable doing everyday activities like walking, bending, and driving. You can even improve your posture, circulation, and balance while relieving pain and stress. The key is learning how to increase flexibility safely.
As we age, our muscles naturally become shorter and lose their elasticity. When this happens, you might be tempted to slow down or even give up your regular routines to avoid injuries and falls. However, when the body doesn’t move, it only gets weaker. Stretching on a daily basis is an important part of maintaining your flexibility and strength. It will help offset the effects of normal decline, increase the flexibility of your joints, and help you remain active and independent. In addition, maintaining your flexibility can provide the following benefits:
Reduce Lower Back Pain and Arthritis
Did you know that lower back pain caused by osteoarthritis and spinal stenosis can be managed through stretching exercises? Routine stretching benefits you by relieving stiffness in your afflicted joints and improving your range of motion. If stretching is difficult at first, try warming up stiff muscles prior to stretching with a heat pack. Conversely, cool down your muscles with an ice pack following the exercise to minimize swelling.
Reduce the Risk of Falling
Regular stretching will help improve your balance and stability, which are both key components to preventing falls. Focus on improving flexibility in your hamstrings, quadriceps, lower back, and hip joints. Stretching these areas will help prevent falls and improve healthy aging overall.
Increase Blood Flow and Energy Levels
Increased energy is important to maintaining independence and remaining social. Dynamic stretching is a low-intensity form of stretching that uses movement to stretch your muscles. Dynamic stretches will lengthen your muscles, increase circulation, and increase nutrient flow (boosting the body’s energy levels). Examples of these stretches include arm swings, shoulder circles, and leg swings.
How to Increase Flexibility
Learning how to increase flexibility takes time. To start, go slowly and listen to your body. If one stretch doesn’t seem to be a good fit, try a variation or a different stretch for the same muscle. Never force a stretch. As you improve your flexibility, you’ll be able to reach farther and improve your range of motion.
Other tips to keep in mind while stretching include the following:
- Try warming up by walking in place for five minutes. This will prepare your heart, muscles, and joints for activity.
- Remember that smooth, gentle movements are safer than jerking or bouncing into a stretch.
- Keep breathing. Like your movements, your breath should be slow and steady.
- Don’t lock your joints. If it’s more comfortable, bend your elbows and knees slightly while stretching.
- Aim to stretch 10 to 15 minutes every day. At a minimum, it is good to stretch three days a week.
