FOR AGES 18-24
It isn't all academics
College is tough. It isn’t just the academics. It isn’t simply the onslaught of secularism upon the belief system of young believers. It isn’t simply the recent discovery of how little time we really have at our disposal. We believe it to be the immediacy of the burden of future being realized in a singular moment, seemingly, overnight. With this comes a feeling of isolation, anxiety, depression, and fear. It is our desire to create a community that bridges the gap between being a teen and being a “grown up,” by reaching our local college community with relationships and resources. It is our heart to help them develop the structures that will support their future, ground those fundamentals in the Word of God, and help to create relationships that will sustain those structures and fundamentals through a season of life that is dynamic and unpredictable.

OnePlus has been in the news for its upcoming OnePlus 8 series for a while now. The OnePlus 8, the OnePlus 8 Pro, and the OnePlus 8 Lite have been leaked time and again and we now have a new leak for the same. The new rumour (as per a listing on Giztop store) throws light on the possible full specifications and price of the upcoming OnePlus smartphones. Read on to know what they are.
OnePlus 8 Design, Specifications, Features, Price
As per the listing, the OnePlus 8 sports a vertical triple-camera module at the back. The rear cameras are rated at 48MP, 12MP, and 2MP. The one at the front stands at 32MP. The display of the OnePlus 8 is a full-screen one and is rated at 6.55-inch. The punch-hole Fluid display is a Full HD+ AMOLED one and comes with a 90Hz refresh rate.
The smartphone is powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor and will come in three RAM/ROM variants: 6GB/128GB, 8GB/128GB and 12GB/256GB. The device will have a 4,000mAh battery with 30T Warp fast charging, will run OxygenOS based on Android 10, and support UFS 3.0 storage.
Additionally, the OnePlus 8 will sport n in-display fingerprint scanner and come in Black and Red colours. The OnePlus 8, which appears similar to the OnePlus 7, is priced at $549 (around Rs. 39,300) as per the listing.
OnePlus 8 Pro Design, Specifications, Features, Price
The OnePlus 8 Pro will be the elder sibling of the OnePlus 8 and will come with a few enhancements. There will be a 6.5-inch Fluid Full HD+ dual punch-hole display with an increased 120Hz refresh rate. The camera department will also see some changes; there will be three rear cameras (60MP, 16MP, 13MP) and a combination of a 32MP front camera with a 3D ToF camera at the front.
Much like the OnePlus 8, there will be a Snapdragon 865 processor, an in-display fingerprint scanner and OxygenOS 10 based on Android 10. The device (also with a vertical rear camera module) will have a bigger 4,500mAh battery with Super Warp fast charging and two RAM/ROM models: 8GB/128GB and 12GB/25GB with UFS 3.0 storage.
The OnePlus 8 Pro is priced at $799 (around Rs. 57,200) according to the website and will come in Black, Blue, and Silver colour options.
OnePlus 8 Lite Design, Specifications, Features, Price
The OnePlus 8 Lite will be a toned-downed variant out of the lot. The listing hints at a rectangular triple-camera module in the top left corner, rated at 48MP+16MP+12MP. The front camera is configured at 16MP. The smartphone will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1000 processor and come in two variants: 8GB RAM/128GB of internal storage and 8GB of RAM/256GB of inbuilt storage.
It is expected to be backed by a 4,000mAh battery with 30T Warp Charge, run OxygenOS 10 based on Android 10, and feature an in-display fingerprint sensor. The OnePlus 8 Lite is expected to be priced at $499 (around Rs. 35,700) as per the listing and come in a single Blue colour option.
Surprisingly, the listing doesn't mention IP68 water and dust resistance for the OnePlus 8 series, which is otherwise heavily rumoured to be integrated into the smartphones.
As a reminder, the aforementioned aren't concrete details and we need to wait until something official is released. The OnePlus 8, 8 Pro, and 8 Lite are expected to launch in March, that is, next month. Hence, stay tuned to this space for more information.

Jay McShann, (James Columbus McShann; “Hootie”), American jazz musician (born Jan. 12, 1916?, Muskogee, Okla.—died Dec. 7, 2006, Kansas City, Mo.), led the last major southwestern-style big band in the 1940s and then became an important piano soloist, with a graceful sense of melody and generous rocking swing. The McShann band played infectious riff-based tunes and blues; McShann’s first recordings (1941) introduced visionary alto saxophonist Charlie Parker, then 20 years old, and included a hit, “Confessin’ the Blues,” which featured singer Walter Brown. The band broke up when McShann entered the U.S. Army in 1944; he later led small groups in New York City and Los Angeles and accompanied singers. He spent most of the 1950s and ’60s in obscurity in Kansas City before returning to widespread touring—this time as a soloist, small-band leader, and member of all-star swing groups—and recording dozens of albums. He was featured in several films, including Hootie’s Blues (1978) and The Last of the Blue Devils (1979), and in Clint Eastwood’s “Piano Blues” program in the PBS television series The Blues (2003).

The latest census data for Scotland has been released – including the figures for travel to work – and it’s not an encouraging picture
Active travel as a whole has declined. Walking is down 1.3% while cycling is up very slightly from 1.5% of all journeys to work in 2001 to 1.6% in 2011 (actually from 1.51% to 1.58%). As cycling rates tend to be higher for commuting than for other types of trips, this suggests that Scotland is a very long way off from reaching 10% of all journeys by bike by 2020.
While disappointing, these figures are hardly a surprise. The real surprise would be if cycling had increased significantly when the government is investing billions in making it easier to drive, and spending only a tiny percent of the transport budget fiddling around at the margins for cycling. No amount of telling people that cycling is healthy, fun and cheap, nor of training schoolchildren to ride, will outweigh the fact that for the vast majority of Scots the roads are just too hostile for them to feel safe cycling themselves, let alone let their kids ride to school.
This doesn’t just matter for the small minority who currently cycle – it affects all of us. Not only have Scots got fatter over the same period, with only two-thirds of children now a healthy weight, but the government has also missed its own climate change targets – both areas where more cycling can be a cost-effective way of improving things. And nor should improving things for cycling make life worse, even for those who drive: catering properly for cycling should actually reduce congestion for all.
There is a simple solution – we’ve outlined it in our own manifesto. And it’s not too late to meet the 2020 figure, although the government is cutting it fine. Seville increased cycling tenfold – from 0.7% – in just six years through a concerted political effort to build a joined-up safe cycling network. Replicating that across a whole country would be hard – but if the will was there we could see similar rises in towns and cities across Scotland. But only if the will is there.
These census figures should be a wake up call for the Scottish Government. Its plans to increase cycling up to now appear to amount to no more than wishing and hoping, which is only really effective in fairy tales. It’s time to take real steps towards the changes we need to make Scotland a truly cycle-friendly country

Outstanding Ballroom in Blackpool
Over the weekend I danced at the world famous Winter Gardens in Blackpool for the 3rd year running. It is the 'UKA National Ballroom and Latin Competition' where people from all over the UK and even some from Spain and Ireland come to compete. It is the highlight of our dance calendar.
I dance with JJ Dance Studios in Beckenham and around 60 of us, including families, made the trip to Blackpool. Unfortunately in the lead up to the completion I broke my arm and had it in plaster for two weeks, which made training difficult, but luckily I had it removed just in time to compete and to be able use both arms!
In the Latin I danced the Samba but was disappointed not to make the finals, although I was happy with how I danced. In Ballroom I danced two grades up at 'bars and laurels' level dancing the Foxtrot and a Tango. I made it through the heats and placed 6th in the final overall which I was very proud of.
I had a great time and can not wait to compete again next year.

Participants in â€œNudity in the Upspace,â€ a weeklong series of events running from September 30 until October 5 at Brown University, are angry. It’s offensive and exploitative when a forty-something-year-old-man from Fox News asks if young women feel comfortable becoming nude in that kind of space, because the look on his face says you ought to be ashamed if the answer is yes. It is entirely inappropriate for middle-aged men to be interviewing young college girls about what they are doing with their bodies. Asking them what their fathers would think of what they are doing is deeply misogynistic. After all, these students are pushing back on ideas about what naked bodies are for, exploring concepts like privilege and what is a naked body, and “creating art” around body positivity and consensual sexuality that includes everyone, that doesn’t exclude any kind of body (!). These students, you see, are on a mission. They’re not at a frat party getting naked. All this is an intellectual and productive activity.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Thumpers' started by wickerman777, Nov 4, 2006.
Fine, say it all better then me!
+1 on the 16T front sprocket and a rejet. It'll fly...mine does 60 easy, all day, and i'm 175. Will go faster but...why... :)
Went to Canada early last fall - about 1800 miles from my house. Me, my riding gear and camping equipment weighed 255#. I don't think I hurt the bike (total miles by the time I got back - 4600), but it sure was a strain to keep it going 60mph. If you're loaded up for camping, I don't think it's more than a 50mph machine.
Just made my deal, should have it by Sunday.
Welcome! You're gonna love the bike. Plus yours probably comes in nifty colors. Does it have a kickstart as well?
BTW, I'm pretty sure updated stator and dual pot calipers came in the 2001 model year. Mine is (2000 model year) made in 99, and has the 35w/35w headlight, single pot brake.
Someone on here mentioned that they had a stock Yamaha tachometer on their XT225, anychance we can get pics? I wish I had one.
It's funny, I hit the limiter on my wr250r way more often than the XT, even though it has a way higher redline.
u da man. THAT is a heckuva adventure trip!!
here is a pic of my stock xt tach(1994 xt225)
on mine, a 94, i'll normally get 100-110 around town before i have go into the reserve side. last summer i did go a nice ride with some co-workers, appx. 112 miles and still had appx.28 of my tank not counting the reserve. i remember, because that was my first big ride on that bike and when i hit the gas station i only put apps .70-.75 of a gallon. all stock.
If you want to read about it, you can go to:
Huh? You got between 149 to 160 mpg or you didnt fill it up?
XT225 Fuel tank capacity
8.8L (2.32 US gallons) (1.94 Imp. gal)
Fuel reserve amount 2.0 L (.053 US gallons) (0.44 Imp. gal)
2.32 -.28 .053 = 1.510 gal.
...unless I'm missing something. Someone here mentioned they had one.
Welcome to the three figures club! I was excited my first time as well. Normally I get 90 +/- 5 mpg.
Did Yamaha use thread lock compound on the studs holding the sprocket to the hub? (pix here)
It needs to be uncorked to go faster loaded. Exhaust, intake and jetting.
I had done the Z-1 mod, and opened up the pilot jet setting, but never messed with the intake. In its present condition it will out run my brother's stock XT225 everytime. Maybe I'm spoiled on my FZ-1, but I can't see it cruising comfortably at 60mph with a 255# load.
so today, i had my bike up on the stand cleaning the chain. after a good cleaning and lube, i started her up and worked the throttle a little to help get back to operating temp. I had just rode around town apprx 5-10 miles. anyways, i put her in first and worked the throttle just a little, when i heard a ticking noise. so with the bike in idle, i could hear the noise. it sounds to me, the noise from a car when the lifters are nocking. i could not isolate the sound, in fear of hurting my little bike, so i shut it off and got it down from the stand and parked it. has anyone had a similar situation or sound? also is it ok to ride it to the shop and have a mechanic check her out?
In first gear, back wheel probably rotating. I'm not surprised. What's it sound like off the 'stand' & in neutral?
it sounded the same when off the stand.
If you are able, and have the specs, adjusting the valve gap is relatively easy. Google "xt 225 valve clearance" and there is a great tutorial on the other website.

Hygiene Investment And Extra Staffing Vital For Successful Re-Opening Of Schools Says Cork TD
He says social distancing measures must be adhered to as well
That's according to Cork South-Central TD and Sinn Fein Education Spokesperson Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire, who was speaking ahead of the re-opening plan, which is due to be published tomorrow.
It was revealed yesterday that the Roadmap to Re-Opening Schools, which Taoiseach Micheal Martin has described as 'robust', will cost in the region of 200 million euro, a cost which Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire believes should be paid by the Department of Education, and not by parents.
Schools have now been shut nationwide for over 4 months due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
In a statement issued to RedFM News, Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire says staffing is a particular concern:

Olive Telecom might launch the second generation OlivePad by the end of this month in India, reported TMI. The new version, which is expected to be called OlivePad 2 will feature a 10.1 inch display and Android 3.0 aka Honeycomb.
While other specifications remain unclear, we are putting our money on 1 GHz processor, 512 MB RAM and 3/5 MP rear cam with a 1.3 MP front cam.
To remind you, Olive Telecom was the first company to launch a tablet in India in July, but it was delayed and reached in stores late October. On the same lines, Olive announced Olive Smart with much fanfare last month but it has still not reached the market. So, we can expect a similar fate of OlivePad 2.
Coming back to the tablet, it will most probably be manufactured by Chinese OEM ZTE as Huawei did not showcase any Honeycomb powered tablet at MWC. ZTE V11, which was displayed at MWC features 10″ TFT-LCD 1,280 x 800, 512 MB RAM, 8 GB/16 GB internal storage, 1.3 Megapixel front facing, 5 Megapixel rear facing, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, LTE FDD/HSPA/WCDMA network, 3.5mm audio jack, micro USB, dedicated Dock Connector, and G-sensor.

2007 Trek 6000
Hi, about 2 weeks ago i got a 2007 Trek 6000. What parts should i switch because, i want to do jumps like bunny hops and what not mostly on the street. Also, i wanted to do some trail riding. What do guys recommend? is this bike good for that stuff? Thanks.
Well, I can bunny hop on my road bike. I don't think you need any particular gear besides a bike equipped with handlebars, and a rider with 4 limbs. You might be able to do it with 3.
I was going to suggest that you install a beefier fork than the RS Dart you currently have, like a Marzocchi 55. However, from the close-up of your head tube, I'm not sure that would be a great idea considering the added stresses from a longer-travel fork and your urban freeride aspirations. I would simply ride the bike and be happy with it...


Despite Alberta Premier’s Promise Vaccine Passport Now Needed to Gather Indoors
( Breitbart )
The Health Minister of Alberta, Canada, announced Wednesday that, because of the coronavirus, people who are not vaccinated can’t gather in any indoor venue starting Thursday.
“Unvaccinated people who are 12 or older will not be able to attend any private indoor social gatherings,” Tyler Shandro said in an announcement video posted on social media.
This development is despite the promises Alberta Premier Jason Kenney has made.
“Jason Kenney has committed time and time again that Alberta will not accept or facilitate vaccine passports in Alberta,” the Rebel website reported.
The outlet posted a video from July when Kenney made the promise.

“What’s your position with vaccine passports for those individuals unwilling to be vaccinated,” a reporter asked Kenney, who has been the leader of the United Conservative Party since 2017.
“We’ve been very clear from the beginning that we will not facilitate or accept vaccine passports and that in fact we regard, I believe that they would in principle contravene the Health Information Act, and also possibly the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act,” Kenney said. “We also amended the Public Health Act to remove the 110 year old power, allowing Alberta to force people to be inoculated so these folks who are concerned about mandatory vaccines have nothing to be concerned about, and there will be no vaccine passports in Alberta.”
In a tweet on Tuesday, Kenney encouraged people to have proof of vaccination.
“Starting Thursday, Albertans will be able to quickly and easily access a printable card of their COVID-19 vaccine records that can also be displayed on their phones or tablets,” Kenney tweeted and included a link to a government press release.

Ohajiki, a classic children’s toy made from coin-shaped glass beads, adorn these needle-sharp sewing pins.
The artisans at Plants Bead Works Tokyo designed these exquisite Ohajiki Sewing Pins to bring a childlike sense of wonder and joy to any sewing project.
The durable steel-and-nickel needle of the pin is manufactured in Hiroshima, a city with a 300-year history of high-quality needle production. Rigorus quality control ensures that pins are of uniform thickness and pierce cloth with ease.
Ohajiki Sewing Pins／Plants Beads Studio
Producing Regions : Tokyo × Hiroshima
Plants Beads Works, established in Kokubunji, Tokyo in 2011.
While creating various forms of glasswork, the artisan came to learn that in old days some people used to carry an Ohajiki as an amulet to expel evil spirits away, so he became interested in Ohajiki as a subject of his creation. Since then, his creation has been mainly focused on making original Ohajiki.
Ohajiki motif glass bead heads have distinctive delicate patterns with gentle colors. The unique patterns of Ohajiki are determined in flames with true craftsmanship.
※All measurements are for reference. Please note in advance that the actual dimensions and weight of the product may slightly vary.
※※The length may vary slightly depending on the adhesion of the top.

- The sewing pin is handmade, so the size and pattern may vary.
- The glass top of the sewing pin may come off if you pull too strong.
- After use, wipe off sweat and grease to prevent rust.
- The needle tip is sharp and dangerous, so be careful when handling lost needles.
- Please note that using it for anything other than sewing may cause damage or injury.
- Keep out of reach of infants.

Acupuncture is claimed to be an ancient system of healing developed over thousands of years as part of the traditional medicine of China. The aim of the treatment is to restore the balance of the universal energy Qi (pronounced chee) in the body, through the painless application of fine needles into strategic points on the body. Qi consists of Yin and Yang and these two opposite, but complementary, forces need to be in balance otherwise disease or illness occurs in the body.
Acupuncture needles are used in specific acupuncture points which give access to the meridians in the body through which the Qi flows so that adjustments can be made to balance the Yin and Yang thus restoring harmony and health.
A brief history of acupuncture
Acupuncture originated in China, although it has also been used in other East Asian countries. Evidence suggests that it was practiced as long as 2,000 years ago, although supporters of it often claim that it has been used for over 5,000 years. It has been intertwined with spiritual and religious practices throughout Chinese history. Acupuncture has a close association with Taoism, taoists being pioneers of the belief in body-mind-spirit consciousness.Early accounts of acupuncture written by missionaries describe acupuncture as being quite different to what we're led to believe. The needles were large, inserted deeply, and used in short duration; '30 respirations' being quoted by missionary Wilhelm Ten Rhijn in 1680.
Nor is there any mention of Qi, meridians, or specific acupuncture points. These concepts were actually introduced in the 20th century, notably by Georges Soulié de Morant in his 1939 book L’Acupuncture Chinoise. Before the 20th century, needles were simply inserted at the site of the pain or problem.Surprisingly, acupuncture was not introduced into Europe until the early 18th century when it was embraced by some French physicians. They were accused of "resurrecting an absurd doctrine from well-deserved oblivion" by many prominent doctors however. It was not introduced into England until 1821 when it was used by midwife Edward Joukes.
The popular explanation offered for the discovery of acupuncture is a story of a warrior wounded by an arrow. The arrow was removed and the wounded healed. Then it was observed that his disease in an unrelated part of the body was cured . an arrow in foot relieved headache . the cause and effect relationtionship was worked out by observant physicians, between punctured point and the disease it cured and ultimately series of points were charted. Acupuncture is usually associated with the Chinese. Researchers has revealed the existence of acupuncture treatment in the Indus valley , in India during the stone age,among the banthus of south Africa, among Eskimos and in brazil.

Atlanta Ga., (WXTX)--- The state of Georgia's economy is doing pretty well compared to other states.
Today Gov. Sonny Perdue reported that tax collections for September were up 4.5 percent, the first increase in four months.
Revenues are still down 2.6 percent for the fiscal year, though.
Georgia's sluggish collections prompted Perdue to order state agencies to cut their budgets by 6 percent to meet an estimated $1.6 billion shortfall for the fiscal year that began July 1. State lawmakers worry the deficit could be even larger.

A federal prosecutor on Monday asked a judge to sentence a former Massachusetts pharmacy executive to 35 years in prison for the "devastation" caused by a deadly 2012 meningitis outbreak.
Barry Cadden, the co-founder and former president of the now-defunct New England Compounding Center, was convicted in March of racketeering and fraud for his role in the outbreak but cleared of the harshest charges he faced, second-degree murder.
Assistant U.S. Attorney George Varghese told U.S. District Judge Richard Stearns a severe sentence was necessary given Cadden's conduct and the "overwhelming devastation" he helped inflict on 778 unsuspecting patients nationwide who received contaminated steroids injections.
That includes 76 people who died, prosecutors said.
"Make no mistake about it, what Barry Cadden did was evil, and he should be punished accordingly," Varghese said.
Cadden's lawyers were set to make their own presentation after the judge hears from around 20 victims who are attending the sentencing.
In court filings, they say prosecutors are seeking to demonize Cadden, who they said was not convicted of knowing the drugs were contaminated, just of misrepresenting how they were made. They say Cadden deserved no more than about three years in prison.
Cadden was one of 14 people tied to Framingham, Massachusetts-based New England Compounding Center indicted in 2014 following the outbreak. He was one of only two people to face second-degree murder charges.
Prosecutors said Cadden, the compounding center's head pharmacist, ran the company as a criminal enterprise, selling substandard and non-sterile drugs produced in filthy conditions to medical facilities nationwide.
They said Cadden directed the shipment of 17,600 vials of contaminated steroids often prescribed for back pain despite knowing they were made in unsafe conditions, leading to the outbreak.

Obama's administration says it's against voter ID laws because it is trying valiantly to keep minorities and the poor from being unfairly discriminated against. But the truth is that it is trying to keep President Obama in office. It knows that voter IDs are...
wsmith-84 says "Look up the findings." That seems to be the new mantra of the left. If you want to prove something then "show us the findings" - don't just mumble something about do-it-youself, and present no proof of anything.
President Barack Obama and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder's Justice Department have a new obsession to obstruct any state's passing of voter identification laws, even recently attacking South Carolina and my own state of Texas. Holder calls voter ID laws "unnecessary" and says voter fraud "doesn't exist," but new video proof in his own voting precinct proves otherwise.

We’re calling on everyone to keep an eye out for the elusive platypus and get involved in the new community driven www.platypusSPOT.org.
platypusSPOT is an online tool that collects the vast wealth of community information on platypus sightings and makes this information publicly accessible. It’s about raising awareness of where platypuses occur and threats to their conservation.
platypusSPOT allows wildlife enthusiasts to contribute their sightings (past or present) of platypuses, upload photos, view sightings in their local area, and interact with other ‘platypusSPOTters’.
There is also information on conservation threats to platypuses to stimulate discussion around what individuals and communities can do to help platypus conservation in their area – check out the Learning Centre.
So if you’ve been fortunate enough to spot a platypus in your neighbourhood, or further afield, report it on platypusSPOT and play a role in increasing our understanding and aid conservation of this amazing animal.
Acknowledging the need to build more information and to increase public engagement in platypus, cesar and Melbourne Water have partnered to develop this innovative new website.
For the past six years, cesar and Melbourne Water have collaborated to undertake intensive research and population monitoring of platypuses in and around Melbourne.
As a result of this work and historical data, we now have a much better understanding of platypus population trends at a number key locations across the greater Melbourne area and the potential conservation threats they face.
While a lot of valuable information has been gathered, it’s clear that if we want to improve management and conservation outcomes for the platypus we need to know more about its distribution and occurrences.
Platypuses are very difficult to study in the wild due to their aquatic and nocturnal lifestyle, high mobility and relatively low density. Live-trapping surveys are extremely time and labour intensive (as those who have volunteered with us will know!), which can limit data collection.
By capturing platypus sightings, platypusSPOT allows everyone to be involved in building information about the platypus.
A common misconception about platypuses is that they are only found in relatively pristine waterways.
In fact, platypuses are widely distributed throughout many urban waterways across Melbourne.
Many residents are completely unaware that they are lucky enough to have platypuses in their local creek or river.
We believe that increasing awareness through platypusSPOT of where platypuses occur and the threats that may impact populations is a key step towards improving conservation outcomes, particularly in urban areas.

I don’t get to use my camera gear a lot anymore — the days before COVID when using my camera felt like a near-daily part of my work are very missed — but I am grateful to hear that Gear Patrol has acquired DPReview, and the site will live on.
Much digital ink has been spilled about DPReview in the past months, and I won’t add much more to it here, save that the site has always been invaluable. It’s not just about gear. It’s about learning technique from the good people in the forums, too. Losing DPR would have been like losing Sound on Sound for music production — unthinkable.
Gear Patrol is new to me. I hope they steward DPReview well.

Since 2003 “Heart and Soul” has charmed it’s audiences with the accordion’s distinct voice; coaxed into full throated glory by the practiced hands of Jim and Lynda. They have become a fixture at a manifold of venues across BC – and, in recent years, took a pilgrimage to the cradle of the Castilfideral; Italy. Performing, for them, assuages an appetite for adventure; for new places, new people – and occasionally new accordions; a tangible legacy of their experiences. Although Jim, with a familitairy nurtured from years of comradeship , claims Lynda has a “bad habit” of indulging in such purchases. Their relationship is an example of the connections music constructs ; with both people, and places- such as the Artisan Farmers Market, of which “Heart and Soul” has frequented for twelve years.
Their repertoire is diverse; a menagerie of “old time waltzes, polkas, schottisches, sing along favorites, and melodies from around the world.” In short, songs plucked from the wellspring of bygone days, dusted off, and presented like glimmering relics. Aptly, “Heart and Souls’ most well trod venues are care homes. Where music seeps from their accordions, pure and unencumbered by amplifiers. “Our lack of technology is what makes us unique,” says Lynda. And, indeed, their sound is gentle, but nevertheless lively. Awakening slumbering memories. Coaxing smiles seemingly plucked from the catacombs of childhood.
At once such performance, a man – mute for two years – burst into song. His reminsinces revived by the immutable language of music. By a particular ditty that resounded in the crevices of his mind; tugging at faded stories and scrubbing the must away.
Jim and Lynda’s music is indubitably steeped in the past. Traced by nostalgia – bloated with memory. Yet Jim contends performing keeps him young. An anti-aging mechanism that sharpens the senses – and coaxes from dormancy a childlike charisma. In between pieces, Jim lends wittisms to willing listeners, or else invites them to take a seat upon their collection box; a latrine. “Good time music, good time fun” explains Lynda. Music, indeed, has a tendency to breed happiness in both performer and audience. A vitality that seems to eclipse time – motivating Lynda since her childhood and Jim since his teenage affinity with harmonicas. “We have no grand plans,” says Lynda. Simply to carry on; transforming fading notes on a page – or half forgotten ditties – into something alive and beating.

The Machine Rifle Model 1915 CSRG (French: Fusil Mitrailleur Modele 1915 CSRG), more commonly known as the Chauchat was the standard light machine gun for the French Army during World War I. It was one of the first light, automatic rifle-caliber weapons designed to be carried and fired by a single operator and an assistant, without a heavy tripod or a team of gunners, setting a precedent for several subsequent 20th-century firearm projects, being a portable, yet full-power automatic weapon built inexpensively and in very large numbers. It is infamous for being prone to jamming and its heavy recoil. Despite this, records show the weapon was instrumental to modern tactics later in the war, especially for clearing machine gun nests and providing supressive fire.
The Chauchat combined a pistol grip, an in-line stock, a detachable magazine, and a selective fire capability in a compact package of manageable weight for a single soldier. Furthermore, it could be routinely fired from the hip and while walking. However, its many design flaws resulted in its replacement in both US and later French service by the BAR M1918 and Mle 1924, respectively.
— In-game description
Like many of the expansion's weapons, the Chauchat has higher damage but slower fire rate. Though offering a three-shot kill at close range, it is outperformed by many other light machine guns at longer ranges.

What is death Plato? In ancient Greece, the renowned philosopher Plato pondered over this profound question. Plato believed that human beings consist of both a physical body and an immortal soul. According to his view, when a person dies, it is only the body that perishes, while the soul continues to exist in some form.
Plato’s understanding of death can be seen through his account of Socrates’ death in “The Apology” and “Phaedo.” Socrates explains that true philosophers should not fear death because they understand that the soul’s immortality allows for a better life beyond the physical realm. Plato argues that human nature transcends mere sense perception and bodily pleasures; instead, it seeks pure knowledge and the well-being of one’s soul.
Plato’s argument for the immortality of the soul rests on several key points. The Affinity Argument suggests that since the soul is associated with reasoning and eternal truths, it must belong to a higher realm than the sensible world. Additionally, he presents the Epicurean Argument which claims that death should not be feared as it brings an end to all bodily pain and suffering.
In conclusion, Plato believed that death is not something to be feared but rather embraced by true philosophers who seek a better life beyond this mortal existence. While our physical bodies may perish, our souls continue their journey towards wisdom and enlightenment.
The concept of death in Plato’s philosophy is a fascinating topic that delves into the nature of human existence, the soul, and the afterlife. Plato, a renowned Greek philosopher, offers thought-provoking insights on what death truly means for human beings.
In Plato’s dialogue “Phaedo,” he explores Socrates’ perspective on death. Socrates explains that when a person dies, it is only the body that perishes while the soul continues to exist. According to Plato, the soul is distinct from the physical body and possesses qualities such as rationality and immortality.
Plato believed that true philosophers should not fear death because they understand its true nature. For him, death should not be seen as something to be dreaded but rather as a release from the limitations of the physical body and an opportunity for the soul to attain pure knowledge.
Plato argues that our senses deceive us in perceiving reality accurately. He contends that there are higher forms of existence beyond what we can perceive through our senses. Death, therefore, allows the soul to escape from this sensible world and enter a realm where it can experience ultimate truth and wisdom.
One of Plato’s well-known arguments regarding death is his affinity argument. He suggests that since our souls long for knowledge and truth during our earthly lives, it indicates an eternal aspect within us. This longing implies that our souls have existed before birth and will continue to exist after physical death.
What Is Death Plato?
Plato, a renowned Greek philosopher, offers profound insights into the nature of death and the immortality of the soul. In his philosophical dialogues, particularly in “Phaedo” and “Apology,” Plato explores these concepts with great depth and intellectual rigor.
According to Plato, death is not something to be feared but rather understood as a separation of the soul from the physical body. He argues that human beings consist of two distinct components: the mortal body and the immortal soul. While the body dies, Plato believes that the soul continues to exist beyond physical death.
To comprehend Plato’s perspective on death, it is essential to examine his mentor Socrates’ life and teachings. Socrates asserts that true philosophers should not fear death since they strive to detach themselves from bodily pleasures and focus on attaining pure knowledge. For Socrates, philosophy is a lifelong pursuit aimed at preparing one’s soul for its continued existence after death.
Plato builds upon Socrates’ reasoning by presenting several arguments supporting the immortality of the soul. One such argument is known as “the affinity argument,” which suggests that souls are inherently more akin to eternal and unchanging forms than transient physical bodies. Plato posits that our ability to grasp abstract concepts and engage in philosophical contemplation stems from our connection to this higher realm of existence.
Another argument put forth by Plato is called “the recollection theory.” According to this theory, our souls possess innate knowledge acquired before birth but forgotten upon entering this world. Through philosophical inquiry, we can recollect this preexisting wisdom and reconnect with our true nature as immortal beings.
Plato concludes that a good life entails cultivating one’s soul through moral virtue and intellectual pursuits. By doing so, individuals align themselves with their immortal essence and experience well-being even in times of physical suffering or impending death.
In ancient Greece, where mortality was an ever-present reality, Plato’s view offered solace and a pathway to a better life. He believed that true philosophers, those who dedicated themselves to seeking truth and understanding the nature of the soul, would find ultimate fulfillment in their pursuit.
In summary, Plato argues that death should not be feared but rather embraced as a natural transition in which the soul’s continued existence is assured. By detaching from worldly desires and seeking knowledge, individuals can attain a deeper understanding of their immortal essence and lead a truly meaningful life.
The Allegory of the Cave and Death
In Plato’s philosophical work, “The Republic,” he explores various aspects of human nature, including the concept of death. One of the most intriguing discussions on this topic can be found in his famous allegory known as “The Allegory of the Cave.”
Understanding the Allegory: The allegory presents a metaphorical scenario where human beings are chained inside a dark cave since birth, facing a wall where shadows from objects behind them are projected. These shadows become their only reality, representing what they perceive as truth.
Socrates’ Explanation: Socrates explains that if one of these prisoners were to be freed and exposed to the outside world, they would initially be overwhelmed by the brightness and struggle to comprehend true reality. This transition symbolizes physical death and the release from our limited sense perception.
Plato’s Belief on Death: Plato believed that when a person dies, it is only their physical body that perishes while their soul continues to exist in another realm. He argued that death should not be feared but rather seen as a natural progression towards enlightenment.
The Immortality of Soul: According to Plato’s account in “Phaedo,” he presents several arguments supporting the immortality of the soul. One such argument is based on his affinity argument, stating that since human souls possess an intrinsic desire for pure knowledge and truth, they must have existed before birth or conception.
Contrasting Views: Plato’s view on death contrasts with other ancient Greek philosophers like Epicurus who believed that death is simply the end – once dead, dead person has no more consciousness or existence.
A Better Life Beyond Death: Plato concludes that those who dedicate themselves to pursuing wisdom and cultivating their souls are true philosophers who will experience a better life forms after death compared to those who prioritize earthly pleasures alone.

LeBlanc, out of options, gave up four runs in 6 1/3 innings Friday while in relief of Garrett Richards, who allowed five runs before recording the third out of the first inning. Now the Angels risk losing LeBlanc off waivers, unable to send him back to Triple-A unless 29 other teams pass up a chance to add him to their big league roster.
"We hope Wade stays with us," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "We'd love him to go down there and continue to pitch. But just like any other pitcher, if there's a big league job, guys are going to pursue it."
The Angels are off Monday and will start C.J. Wilson, Richards and Tyler Skaggs in the upcoming three-game series in Houston. That means Matt Shoemaker is being pushed back and could start as late as next Saturday against the White Sox, with Jered Weaver -- starting Sunday's series finale against the A's -- taking his next turn on normal rest the previous Friday.
Scioscia wouldn't reveal his rotation for the weekend series against the White Sox, but Shoemaker -- two days removed from pitching 5 1/3 innings in Seattle -- isn't available out of the bullpen in the second of a three-game set in Oakland and can't provide much length in the series finale.
Grube -- a 32-year-old right-hander with a 3.52 ERA in 11 starts at Triple-A Salt Lake -- is in the Majors for the first time to provide coverage until Monday's off-day.
And LeBlanc -- 29, and with a 3.69 ERA in nine Triple-A starts -- is now there for the taking.
"It's really bad timing for Wade, but it meets our team's need," Scioscia said. "Last night, we had a short start obviously, and [LeBlanc] had to throw a lot. We just need some coverage and length here today and tomorrow, so we needed to get a fresh arm up here."

Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O’Connell (/ˈaɪlɪʃ/ EYE-lish; born December 18, 2001) is an American singer and songwriter. She first gained attention in 2015 with her debut song “Ocean Eyes”, which was subsequently released by the Interscope subsidiary Darkroom. The song was written and produced by her brother Finneas O’Connell, with whom she collaborates on music and live shows. Her debut EP, Don’t Smile at Me (2017), became a hit, reaching the top 15 in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia.
But as all people, she also is prone to fall victim of fears and in worse cases phobias. In a quite introspective interview for Billboard she confesses that as for what her biggest fear is, Eilish confesses that she is terrified of people she loves dying. “That’s like, all I think about all the time,” she says. “I think that’s probably my biggest fear is losing the people around me. I’m not afraid of death, but I’m afraid of people I love dying.”.
She adds that she is afraid of the ocean, as well, noting that whales and the sounds they make are “fucking creepy as hell.”
There are a lot of phobias associated with large bodies of water but the most popular one is thalassophobia which is fear of sea, sea travel, large bodies of water, emptiness of sea and in Billies case – Falainaphobia, which is fear of whales specifically.

Jayam Ravi Hints At Directorial Debut, Reveals Which Actor He Has Signed For Just ₹500
Jayam Ravi recently hinted at his debut as a director and said that he has three scripts in mind. He also revealed who could potentially star in it.
Renowned Tamil actor Jayam Ravi who is celebrated for his diverse roles spanning nearly two decades recently hinted at his foray into film direction. During a recent promotional interview for Siren, the actor who is known for portraying a wide range of characters from romantic leads to intense cop roles shared his plans.
What did Jayam Ravi say about his debut as a director?
Ravi disclosed, “I have written three scripts and one of them will have Yogi Babu playing the lead.” With a touch of humour, he mentioned having already secured Babu's involvement by paying an advance of Rs 500. “The other script will be headlined by myself, as I saw myself in that character when I was writing, hence I don't see anyone else playing it,” the actor added.
Jayam further revealed, “The third script anyone can be roped in as the cast. Not just myself, I think anyone can play that role.”
While specifics regarding production timelines remain undisclosed, fans speculate that Ravi might commence work on these projects shortly. The actor's silence on the genre of his directorial debut has also sparked curiosity, leaving audiences to wonder if it will be a romantic comedy or a gripping crime thriller.
Is Jayam Ravi’s son making a debut soon?
Ravi hinted at his son's potential entry into the film industry and revealed heightened interest from directors and family members in launching his son as a hero. Despite the excitement, Ravi talked about the importance of his son completing his education before considering a career in acting.
He said, “The demand for directing my son has gone up. Director Shakti has expressed willingness to direct my son when he turns a hero. My brother too is interested in directing him. I too have a desire to direct a film with him as the hero. But let him first complete his studies. Let him finish this cycle and come to adulthood and then we can see all about all of that.”

To maintain effective police-community relations, the police must forge bonds of trust with the communities they serve. The willingness of residents to voluntarily contact police when they have been victims of or witnesses to a crime depends on these bonds of trust. When law enforcement practices undermine residentsí confidence in the police, those practices need to be changed. Itís a good sign that municipalities such as Newark, New Orleans and Chicago have established models for such reforms, and that California is considering policy changes as well.
Creating a bright line between police and federal immigration enforcement should be top priority so that local law enforcement authorities can begin rebuilding the trust of the communities they are sworn to serve and protect.

Belarus opposition politician Andrei Sannikov freed from jail
After more than a year in jail, opposition politician Andrei Sannikov was freed over the weekend, after he was granted a pardon by Alexander Lukashenko, the authoritarian president of Belarus.
Mr Sannikov arrived in Minsk late on Saturday night, and was greeted by a number of well-wishers chanting slogans of support and foisting flowers upon him. He thanked those who had supported him and said his first wish was to spend time with his family.
European countries had repeatedly called for Mr Sannikov, and a number of other political prisoners, to be freed, and his release may be part of an attempt by Mr Lukashenko to mend extremely frayed relations with Europe. Mr Sannikov, 58, was arrested during protests after a presidential election in 2010, in which Mr Lukashenko won a resounding victory but observers said was rigged. Tens of thousands of people gathered in central Minsk to protest the result, and Mr Sannikov was arrested, along with several other presidential candidates and hundreds of protesters. He was sentenced to five years in prison, and has been kept in harsh conditions, often unable to receive visits from his wife, a journalist who was also arrested and was later kept under house arrest.
Mr Sannikov initially refused to ask for a presidential pardon, but relented earlier this year, apparently after threats to his family. Mr Lukashenko agreed to pardon him over the weekend, and also released Dmitry Bondarenko, who worked as a campaign manager for Mr Sannikov.
Relations between the EU and Belarus remain rocky, and earlier this year all ambassadors from EU countries were withdrawn from Minsk. European bodies cautiously welcome the move, but said that Mr Lukashenko, who has run the country since 1994 and been dubbed “the last dictator in Europe”, needs to do more. “This is excellent news for Sannikov, his family and his friends, but I remain concerned over the fate of other jailed political opponents, notably former presidential candidate Nikolai Statkevich,” said Irish Deputy Prime Minister Eamon Gilmore, currently the chairperson of the Office for Security and Cooperation in Europe. “I call upon President Lukashenko to build upon this positive development and release all remaining jailed opposition leaders”.
Belarus is also the last country in Europe to retain the death penalty, and last month executed two men who were convicted of a bomb blast on the Minsk metro system last year. Much of the evidence at the trial was shaky and one of the condemned withdrew his confession, which he said was extracted under torture, but the two were executed anyway.
Irina Bogdanova, a democracy campaigner and the sister of Mr Sannikov, said that the EU should not stop pressuring Mr Lukashenko because of her brother’s release. “We are overjoyed to learn of their release, but we cannot celebrate fully until all political prisoners in Belarus are released and rehabilitated, and free and fair elections are held,” she said. “The EU must not back down because of this news.”

British automaker Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is upping its presence among China’s elite through a meeting with the China Entrepreneur Club, a group comprising the most prominent and important businessmen in the market.
The 30-member group toured through Britain this week and included meetings with British officials and other companies and organizations. Given that China was the No. 1 sales market for Rolls-Royce last year, the automaker is likely attempting to maintain this relationship through close, personal contact.
“Our cars attract the very wealthy worldwide and, of course, growing markets like in China is of enormous interest to us,” said Andrew Ball, corporate communications manager for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Goodwood, England. “In a very Rolls-Royce way, we are keen to offer our product to the wealthy in China.
“The CEC is a very interesting club and it is amazing to have a link and a relationship to open trade doors with Great Britain,” he said. “We were very pleased that we were the first stop on their trip here.
“I am sure great relationships and friendships will be born through the meetings.”
BMW Group owns Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.
On a roll
The CEC is a group of the most elite Chinese consumers in the business community including entrepreneurs, economists and diplomats.
These are the members of the most vigorous representatives in the new Chinese economy and promote corporate social responsibility among Chinese enterprises, according to Rolls-Royce.
Combined revenue for the members from last year total approximately $309 billion.
The CEC’s 10-day Britain tour included British business before the London Olympics.
Also, members met with former British prime minister Tony Blair, Lord Rothschild, Sir Richard Branson and other British companies and organizations.
Last year, China edged out the United States as the best-selling Rolls-Royce market, with Beijing as the top demographic. Asia-Pacific, in general, grew 47 percent.
Member of the CEC
China continues to be an important market for all marketers, including high-end automotive.
For example, automakers such as Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, Land Rover, Range Rover, Bentley and Aston Martin tapped the growing luxury market in China by releasing new vehicles at the Auto China 2012 car show in April (see story).
“We see a lot of potential in China, but we are an international business,” Mr. Ball said. “While we are delighted that China was our No. 1 market last year and we see a strong performance already this year, we have 90 dealerships worldwide.
“We are very much commissioned by our owners, and that is something that we have found that our Chinese customers enjoy,” he said. “They like making them very personal and that is something we see because of their appreciation of luxury and hand-craftsmanship.”
The way Rolls-Royce markets is through close-knit relationships between dealerships and customers, and this goes for Chinese customers as well.
"No one needs to be sold a Rolls-Royce," said Bob Prosser, CEO of Auto World Marketing Corp., San Diego. "Buying one is a pre-planned purchase decision — an acquisition — made by someone who knows fully what a Rolls-Royce is and what it means to be seen on one.
"However, for the individual doing the buying, as opposed to an agent making the acquisition in their absence, going through the purchase experience should match the quality, image, and price of the product purchased," he said.
Rolls-Royce looks to market in an emotive way, which is probably what the CEC experienced when it visited this week.
“I think that the way the world is going is that products are unique, but commoditized,” said Milton Pedraza, CEO of the Luxury Institute, New York. “What really matters is the relationship and the human attributes of the brand – the people that built it.
“How good they are at building relationships, their expertise, their care and attributes, are what sells cars,” he said. “Obviously, Rolls-Royce wants to get sales, but I think that they ultimately want to cultivate long-term relationships.”
Rachel Lamb, associate reporter on Luxury Daily, New York
