West Indies Women swept aside host Bangladesh by 36 runs to win their second match in the ICC T20 World Cup at Sylhet Stadium yesterday. Teenager Shaquana Quintyne, who bowls leg break, grabbed three wickets to inflict a top order submission that severely restricted the host who imploded for 79, on the hunt for 116 set by West Indies.
The 18-year-old returned impressive figures of three wickets for five runs from three overs which included a maiden and received support from Tremayne Smartt and Anisa Mohammed who picked up two for nine and two for 22, respectively.
Quintyne, who also scored 11 and was voted player-of-the-match, knocked back the stumps of two front line batters—opener Ayasha Rahman for ten and Fargana Hogue for two—to leave Bangladesh scrambling for momentum. But middle order batsman Rumana Ahmed top scored with 26 to lead a fightback that injected a measure of stability into Bangladesh’s innings.
In the process, Ahmed added 28 for the fifth wicket with Nuzhat Tasnia before another batting collapse ensued and the match swung decisively in favour of the visitors. In the space of four balls Tasnia, who scored six, was bowled by Anisa Mohammed while Quintyne ended the reign of Ahmed who was caught by Smartt.
The Caribbean women asserted themselves ruthlessly by removing the last four wickets for just five runs to secure a comfortable win with 15 balls remaining. Earlier, West Indies who had won the toss and elected to bat, were jolted by early strikes from Salma Khatun and Fahima Khatun.
Salma shattered the stumps of opener Kycia Knight in the second ball of the innings for a duck while Fahima removed the stumps of Quintyne for 11 and trapped Kyshona Knight lbw, also for 11, as the West Indies plummeted to 33 for three. However the aggressive Deandra Dottin teamed up with Stacy-Ann King to steer the innings back on course as the Caribbean women clawed their way back into the match.
Dottin, who top scored with 34 which featured three fours and a six, compiled 40 runs for the fifth wicket with King who hit two fours and a six to score 20. Down the order Mohammed also contributed a well played 15 before she was run-out. Khadija Tul Kubra topped the bowling for Bangladesh with three for 24 including the prized scalp of Dottin who was caught by Fahima.

The most striking features of our encounters with the past are the objects that allow us to get a glimpse into the everyday life (family life, work etc.) making history feel almost tangible. However, the social image, processes, local and/or personal stories, and fates are shed light upon by written sources.
The documents from the Historical Archives of Subotica and Senta as well as the Csongrád County branch of the Hungarian National Archives (records of the Registry Court and certain economic associations) altogether vitally complete the invaluable records presenting the agriculture of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries kept at the Ópusztaszer Heritage Park. The documentation rich in information about the agricultural companies active throughout the above mentioned period can illustrate the agrarian life at the turn of the century from more than one aspect. These records contain legal documents, financial data, wills, birth certificates, contracts etc. With the help of these and the documents of other administrative bodies it is possible to reconstruct the economic and legal backgrounds of the landowners of that time, the amount of capital they accumulated, how family farms were established and the social composition of farmers.
The collection of data and archival research will take place in the Historical Archives of Subotica and Senta as well as the Csongrád County branch of the Hungarian National.
The partner institutions announced a competition with the title Tisza, the river that connects us for high school students in April 2021. The works submitted should present a lifestyle of a person living in harmony with nature from the turn of the 19th to 20th century, highlights contemporary people's environmentally conscious, long-term thinking, with a focus on water management, traditional fishing, wood processing and shipbuilding. The best work judged by the professional jury will be included in the study collection.

The Spectrum Mobile story began in September 2018 with the full-market launch for Spectrum Internet customers across Charter’s 41-state footprint. Five years and 6.6 million customer lines later, Spectrum Mobile has become the fastest-growing mobile provider¹ by delivering superior performance inside and outside the home with the fastest wireless speeds²; and flexible, easy-to-use data plans that have saved customers hundreds, and often thousands of dollars per year.
As Spectrum Mobile celebrates its 5-year anniversary, Danny Bowman, Executive Vice President, Product reflects on the product’s value to consumers in the highly competitive mobile marketplace, how Charter is creating a new category of Gig-Powered Wireless Connectivity, and shares his vision of the future.
Q: Spectrum Mobile remains the fastest growing mobile provider as it celebrates its fifth anniversary. What are some key reasons why?
Today we’re the fastest growing mobile provider, and a key reason for this is we’re continuously upgrading our products and leveraging our extensive network to deliver even more reliability, security and speed at exceptional value.
In fact, while the traditional MNOs (Mobile Network Operators) continue to raise prices, we’ve actually lowered ours. When we launched Spectrum Mobile a line of Unlimited data cost $45. Now it’s $29.99.
Meanwhile, we’re increasing value by giving customers more features, like Speed Boost, which automatically increases users’ speeds inside the home when connected to our Advanced WiFi. We also just added free international roaming in Canada and Mexico to our Unlimited Plus plan – and this includes voice, text and data – and there is no change in price.
Q: What makes Spectrum Mobile packages attractive to consumers?
We keep it simple. Nationwide 5G is included in all our data plans at no extra cost, and we offer the best phones, tablets and wearable watches, or customers can bring their own. And, as always, there are no added taxes, fees or contracts with our plans.
We’ve launched new packages, like Spectrum One, which was an industry first by bundling together Spectrum Internet, Advanced WiFi and Spectrum Mobile at one compelling $49.99/month price point. It has been a huge success with consumers over the past year.
Q: How has Spectrum created a new category of Gig-Powered Wireless Connectivity?
The cable industry has reinvented itself time and again since the 1950’s. From delivering viewers hundreds of channels of cable television, and taking the country from dial up to always on broadband Internet, to becoming the largest wireline voice providers in the country, we have constantly evolved our business proposition. We are now doing the same with mobile, combining internet and wireless assets to create a new category of Gig-Powered Wireless Connectivity.
This enables us to deliver a truly converged world – one where consumers are consistently experiencing the best speeds, security and reliability virtually everywhere at great value, while we as a company continue to drive customer growth.
Q: What do the next five years hold for Spectrum Mobile?
We’re not slowing down as we move into a multi-Gig Powered Wireless Connectivity world and add Xumo to our offering to enhance our connectivity and entertainment offerings.
We’re going to keep looking for new ways to save customers money while offering the best performance, reliability and security while we continue our focus on customer satisfaction and growth.

Argument: Republicans believe govt most effective when decentralized
"GOP vs. Democrats." Arizona Republican Party: "Republicans believe governmental power and resources should be kept close to the people, through their state and community public servants, rather than centralized in distant big government. [...] Democrats believe the federal government knows how and where to spend money for local needs better than elected community leaders, and federal bureaucrats should continue to control the flow of funds to the states and localities and dictate how the taxpayer s money will be spent. [...] Republicans believe in solutions decided upon and implemented by the people themselves, through their locally elected representatives. [...] Democrats believe in a powerful, centralized bureaucracy aimed at solving local and nation problems from the top down—a method that has failed everywhere it has been tried throughout history."
Can Tran. "Democrat vs. Republican: Political philosophies." Helium: "Republicans believe in a smaller role of the central government. It means that the Republican philosophy reflects upon the power of individuality. In regards to the country, it focuses a lot on States' rights. You have your federal government and your state governments. [...] That means that Republicans do not want the federal government imposing on the state governments. Most of the power will lie in the hands of the state governments. It brings more power to the state governors. Also, this extends to the counties of the state. It would mean a smaller role of state government in those states."

A.ST.I.M. is also present among the companies competing for the supply and commissioning of an emergency management system (“Driver’s enhanced navigation and information system”) for an international airport, commissioned by the Sultanate of Oman.
At the center of the attention, the THERMONAV® DEVS MK3 ARFF Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting, an A.ST.I.M’s system, that meets the FAA and ICAO standards for the international safety standards in the civil aviation. As a Modular solution, thanks to five different subsystems, this system is also a collaborative one that connects in real-time all vehicles where its installed: thanks to an advanced vision method, efficacious in any climatic and visibility condition it let you record video and photos of the analyzed areas (using sophisticated algorithms, for the georeferencing and encryption of data and images); And using a fast and secure data link, It also allows you to share video and information through a text and vocal messaging functions as well. This solution can be installed onboard vehicles (road or naval) that intervene in airport area and it can operate as a stand-alone solution or inserted in a complex system already implemented.
THERMONAV® DEVS MK3 ARFF is already present in the 12 most important Italian airports, and is one of the last step of the technological innovation applied to the security, view that it operates in a fully digital mode, to guarantee quick and reliable response time, increasing and improving in this way the operational capacity of the forces team involved in the intervention for a positive resolution of the critical emergency. Today this solution can support any type of indoor and outdoor operations thanks to the RTLS Real Time Location System function for the security operator tracking and for the share of crucial operational information in real-time even in closed area (terminals, luggage compartment areas, technical and service areas). This system is, however, constantly evolving to meet the international security needs, which are in continued evolution.
With this important opportunity in Oman, where other A.ST.I.M’s solutions are already present onboard naval government units, A.ST.I.M. confirms its progressive affirmation in the Middle East market (and in particular way in the Gulf Countries), taking part of important international tenders and defense and security events, and making as well a commercial alliances with local partners, as in this case.

Title: Safety and potential efficacy of 20% v/v tigilanol tiglate (0.2 mg/cm3 lesion volume) in the treatment of grey horse melanomas
Corey Saba, DVM, DACVIM (Oncology faculty)
Jarred Williams, DVM, DACVS-LA (Equine faculty)
If interested, please have your primary veterinarian request additional information through the UGA Oncology service by calling the referral coordinator at 706-542-3221.
Study description : The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and potential efficacy (defined as decrease in tumor size) of tigilanol tiglate (20%V/V), for treatment of grey horse melanomas
- Grey horses must have suspected or confirmed measurable melanomas.
- Single or multiple melanomas (up to 3 per horse) may be treated as long as tumor volume is 2 cm3 – 10 cm3.
- Horses must be otherwise healthy without concurrent disease, especially ongoing conditions (e.g. gastric ulceration) where the use of NSAIDs is contra-indicated.
- Prior treatment, including the Oncept vaccine, is acceptable but must be discontinued ≥ 6 months prior to study enrollment.
- Owners must sign a consent form.
Horses will undergo preliminary staging tests including initial consultation and physical examination. Once deemed eligible for inclusion, the intent will be to inject tigilanol tiglate (20%V/V) into the tumor(s). Depending upon response, injections may be repeated up to 3 times. At several time points following treatment (for up to 2 years), owners will be asked to submit photos of the tumor to UGA for assessment of treatment response. In some instances, the horse may be required to return to UGA for re-evaluation.
Tigilanol tiglate (20%V/V) will be provided at no cost as part of this trial. Costs of study related office visits, lab work, and ancillary medications such as NSAIDs and sedatives will also be covered by the Sponsor.
Duration of study: The study is currently OPEN. Duration of the study is until progression in tumor size, or a total of 24 months.
Potential benefits to veterinary medicine: Successful demonstration of efficacy and safety of this treatment may lead to large scale clinical trials and may provide a valuable option for veterinarians and horse owners seeking an alternative to surgical removal of grey horse melanomas.

I wake up every morning to the sound of tiny bullets of water scorching his back but he likes the burn so I do not say a thing. he loves the way I sing and teases me endlessly and whispers ****** things when our friends are around because he is an exhibitionist. I do not know what this is. I do not know who he is. but at the same time I do not know who I am either, we are cataclysmic together and wreak havoc wherever we go but there is something so beautiful about what a disaster we are together that i do not want to say goodbye. he is the lover I never have to worry about loving back and that if nothing else matters

Ft. Matanzas National Monument
Photo by Mark. M. M.
From the National Park Service:
The area of the Matanzas inlet, now preserved within the park boundaries, was the scene of crucial events in Spanish colonial history. The massacre of French soldiers here in 1565 was Spain's opening move in establishing a colony in Florida. Later, the construction of Fort Matanzas in 1740-1742 was Spain's last effort to ward off British encroachments from the north.Fort Matanzas National Monument is open every day of the year except December 25. The park is located on Hwy A1A, fourteen miles south of downtown St. Augustine, the oldest continually occupied European settlement in the continental United States and home of the Castillo de San Marcos which is also a unit of the National Park system.
Free Ferry Service to the fort leaves every hour at half past the hour, 9:30 am -- 4:30 pm from the dock behind the visitor center. Tours generally last 45-50 min.

Let’s Get You Some Cashback…
Sign Up Below for a £20 cashback bonus on your next purchase. It’s literally free! (You can do both, too!)
Today, we are going to inform you of a basic method for building an extra pot of money, stacking your cashback. It’s really simple to use, and it has the potential to earn you £5,000 a year with ease.
What is Cashback?
Cashback is money that you can claim back from your purchase, for visiting the website through a specific link. The best websites for Cashback are TopCashback and Quidco, and they are fantastic for slowly building some extra money.
Cashback sites such as TopCashback and Quidco directly compete with each other, offering shoppers the best deal possible so that you click their link. In return for clicking their link, we get rewarded with up to 10% cashback.
We presume that the retailers actually have a deal such as 15% with the cashback site, and they give us a portion of their commission. That’s good though, and it really helps us with Online Arbitrage.
It’s not very useful for Retail Arbitrage though, as there’s no clicking links in store! You’ll need to stick to your reward cards for those bonuses.
How much Cashback Can I earn with Reselling?
I don’t want to sound like a salesman here, but your earnings are potentially unlimited. It all depends on how much money you have to spend. Typically, the best deals that I take advantage of operate around 10%, but you can also get some higher and lower than this.
Personally, I take anything I can. 1%. 10%. It’s all the same to me, as I forget about it until the end of the year. I actually use this as my holiday fund, and it makes it quite fun to earn throughout the year.
Sometimes I might not hit the target, othertimes I’ve got more than enough. Over the last three years though, I’ve earnt £11,000 in Cashback. In the last 4 months, I’ve been getting £250 a month in cashback.
The good news is that it takes seconds to search for the retailer via the cashback website. TopCashback go one step further, offering a Chrome extension which you can install… this will actually tell you if the website that you’re on gives you cashback.
How to earn £250 cashback every month
As a reseller, you’ll probably be purchasing at least £5,000 a month. If you earn an average of 5% cashback on these sales, there’s your £250.
Now, you won’t always purchase from a site that offers you cashback. Some might offer you less than 5% too, but there’s always a retailer out there with a whopping 10% deal on.
As you scale up on Amazon, it’s completely normal for you to be spending upwards of £15,000 a month. If you stick to the same working average of 5% cashback, that’s £750 per month.
This is before you’ve utilised any Cashback Credit Cards, or any other incentives that your bank may offer in addition to this cashback.
Why do websites offer cashback?
Cashback websites offer us cashback in efforts to secure our custom. Although they are paying us money, they are also earning money from referring us to the website that we click on.
Although the cashback website may give you 5%, there’s a good chance that their commission deal is 10%. This means that although they will make money from us too. It helps to keep the ball rolling, and helps cashback websites to remain competitive.
I’m not worried that cashback sites make money from us, we would have no way to get consistent cashback, or money off deals without them.
They also need our custom, so it works quite well. If we don’t click their links and offers, they don’t make money.
TopCashback vs Quidco
The main difference between these two websites is that Top Cashback has the fantastic browser that reminds you which websites you can earn cashback on. This is something that Quidco lacks, and whilst it has similar offers to TCB I typically stick to the TopCashback as I get less failed transactions.
You can sign up to Quidco here
Tips for Earning Cashback in the UK
- Always check the competing cashback sites. You might be happy at 5% cashback, but another site may be offering 8% or more.
- Watch out for Enhanced Cashback. Quidco sometimes run a £20 bonus when you spend £5, which always helps to increase the bankroll.
- Make sure you purchase in the same session that you clicked through, to reduce the failure rate.
- Check the T&C’s as some websites refuse cashback if a discount code has been used.

Deformation monitoring of engineering structures using the advanced Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has attracted research interest due to its high-precision, constant availability and global coverage. However, GNSS application requires precise coordinates of points of interest through quick and reliable resolution of integer ambiguities in carrier phase measurements. Conventional integer ambiguity resolution algorithms have been extensively researched indeed in the past few decades, although the application of GNSS to structural health monitoring is still limited. In particular, known a priori information related to the structure of a body of interest is not normally considered. This study proposes a composite strategy that incorporates modified least-squares ambiguity decorrelation adjustment (MLAMBDA) method with priori information of the structural deformation. Data from the observation sites of Baishazhou Bridge are used to test method performance. Compared to MLAMBDA methods that do not consider priori information, the ambiguity success rate (ASR) improves by 20% for global navigation satellite system (GLONASS) and 10% for Multi-GNSS, while running time is reduced by 60 s for a single system and 180 s for Multi-GNSS system. Experimental results of Teaching Experiment Building indicate that our constrained MLAMBDA method improves positioning accuracy and meets the requirements of structural health monitoring, suggesting that the proposed strategy presents an improved integer ambiguity resolution algorithm.

To celebrate Control: The Foundation, we’re counting down the top 5 craziest things you’ll find exploring the lowest area of The Oldest House. Consider this your spoiler warning!
1. The Cat Shrine
Starting off with a sillier one, the Control expansion, The Foundation, has its own special collectibles in the form of an Altered Item – Maneki-neko Statues. After collecting 8 of these small cat figures scattered throughout The Oldest House’s underground, you’ll be able to enter an adorably terrifying cat shrine and receive your reward… cat ears. Yep, hope all that running around was worth it to make Jesse a certified catgirl.
2. Jesse Faden Starring in “Swift Platform”
Another side mission in The Foundation, this time having Jesse attempt to capture another Altered Item – a movie camera. It wouldn’t be an Altered Item if it was simple though, and the camera immediately launches her into an 80’s neon chase scene. (And a really tough one at that!)
Filled with trippy visuals and heart-pumping synthwave, even Jesse’s not quite sure what she’s seen by the time it’s all over. “Did that just happen? It felt like a dream. Or maybe a bad movie…” Seems like the Federal Bureau of Control’s new Director is not a fan of 80’s action flicks.
3. Marshall’s Death
Head of Operations for the FBC, Helen Marshall was a crucial part in helping Jesse take back The Oldest House from the Hiss. However, unlike most other major characters that stuck around to chat after the ending, Marshall was nowhere to be found. This spawned some questions online about her whereabouts. Well, we definitely know now. The DLC actually reveals she sacrificed herself attempting to stop the Hiss from taking over the Nail, thus kickstarting Jesse’s entire adventure in The Foundation.
And yet, her death doesn’t mean we’ve seen the last of her. Throughout the DLC, she continues to call Jesse and relay information via the Hotline, continuing her role as a key character. Maybe we’ll hear from her again in the sequel?
4. The Former – Friend or Foe?
Control players may remember facing off against this mysterious entity in the base game. The Board even warns Jesse about it, calling The Former a threat to the board and even humanity itself. Apparently a former member of The Board, The Former could be a future villain for the series. This DLC however, makes matters a bit more complicated.
After The Board makes Jesse (begrudgingly) choose between two new powers, The Former actually offers her the other against their wishes. It wants nothing in return, and they even have a friendly, if ominous, chat. In fact, The Former actually seems like it wants to help The Oldest House. So who’s in the right here, The Former or The Board?
Speaking of The Board’s allegiances…
5. Jesse vs. The Board
Sure The Board was always a bit unnerving, but they never seemed outright villainous before. The Foundation however, definitely begins to set up what might be a schism between Jesse and The Board. In line with the entire theme of the game, it seems The Board values control above all. It/they want total control overThe Bureau its Directors. But how far could that desire for control go? Control over humanity. Reality?
The Foundation establishes that The Board is not inherently part of The Oldest House, and instead perhaps manifests itself through The Nail in its lowest levels. It’s revealed they also drove the previous Director Northmoore a bit crazy, and use Directors to control The Bureau. They even potentially “fire” (see: kill) them when the time comes for a new selection – a fact Emily Pope accidentally points out to Jesse. As Jesse fixes the problem in The Foundation, animosity between her and The Board grows. While the Board seeks her subservience, she pretends to play nice – for the time being. This is her bureau now after all.
So how will this all shake out in the sequel? Will Jesse end up teaming up with The Former to take down The Board? Or is it more complicated than that? How do the Hiss come into play with all this? And will Alan Wake play a role in the future?
However it turns out, we can’t wait to see where this story is going.
Bonus: Ahti is Still Weird
Here’s one more quick fun one. While Ahti may be physically missing from the DLC, he can still be spotted in the side mission Found Footage. There you’ll find a TV that stuns enemies with its light… that just happens to be playing footage of Ahti cleaning and singing to himself. We still don’t know exactly who or what Ahti is, but we were glad to see him pop up one more time.
And that’s our list of the craziest moments in Control: The Foundation. Did we miss anything else you found exciting? There’s tons to explore in The Oldest House’s underground, with dozens of notes, cryptic cave paintings, and eerie recordings. It’s enough to drive someone crazy.
What did you think of Control: The Foundation? Are you excited for the next expansion AWE?


In a live “Sister to Sister” conversation Friday morning at Brigham Young University’s Women’s Conference, the three top female Latter-day Saint leaders offered unscripted responses to a few of the 5,000 questions submitted by women in the faith.
The event, billed as “historic,” was a first of its kind at the annual gathering for women in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that draws thousands of attendees to the Provo campus.
Sheri Dew, chief executive officer of Deseret Book, the faith’s publishing house, moderated the discussion with Jean B. Bingham, president of the women’s Relief Society; Bonnie H. Cordon, president of the Young Women organization; and Joy D. Jones (just back from praying at the White House’s National Day of Prayer event), president of the children’s Primary organization.
One question was about dealing with male church leaders “who seem a little dismissive.”
She had heard “how important women are,” the woman wrote, “but that has not been my experience.”
Bingham said she could relate because she has had her own interactions with “dismissive priesthood leaders.”
One was especially difficult, she said. Whenever she attended a meeting with him, she would walk out “seething.”
“I would be angry the whole way home,” Bingham recalled, and, arriving at her house, walk in “and slam my purse on the counter.”
Her husband would say, “Another purse-slammer meeting, huh?”
Over time, though, she learned to “work with this brother.”
She discovered it was a style-and-personality issue and if she prayed for him, worked to understand him, and found better ways of expressing herself, the exchanges improved.
“We women tend to be shrill or demanding or stubborn, thinking we have the best idea ever,” Bingham said to audience laughter, “and if they don’t see it our way, clearly there’s a problem here.”
She suggested women look inside themselves for the solution.
“Charity never faileth,” Bingham said, quoting the Relief Society motto.
Another questioner asked about feeling like an outsider as she faced infertility in a church that emphasizes motherhood and wondering about all the others who don’t feel there’s a place for them — being single, divorced or LGBTQ.
“Everyone wants to belong,” Cordon said. “Our Heavenly Father puts us in families for a reason.”
She then quoted a passage from the Book of Mormon, the faith’s signature scripture, when Jesus is ministering in the New World and instructs his disciples to bring to him all those who are sick or troubled in any way and he would heal them.
“We bring each other to the Savior,” she said. “May we come to the Savior together, and have everyone feel important. We are all children of God. We can have our arms opened a little wider.”
Bingham echoed that sentiment. “We all belong in this church. We all belong to the family of God, the Relief Society family, and the ward family,” she said. “No one is left out.”
The first query came from a mother of three young boys, who is pregnant with a girl, serving in a Young Women presidency and managing a chaotic household. She asked about how to balance her parental and religious responsibilities.
“I feel overwhelmed and fatigued. … I happily could sleep for four years,” the letter writer quipped.
There is a “natural tension between the ideals of the gospel and the realities of life,” said Jones, who urged the woman not to compare herself to others and to let the Holy Spirit prompt her to know what to do.
Bingham quoted a Book of Mormon scripture, saying God does not expect believers to “run faster than [they] have strength.”
Using divine assistance, the Relief Society president said, the harried mom should set priorities.
The final concern was about dealing with doubt, particularly about aspects of Mormon history and the church’s stance on social issues.
It is “good to ask questions and good to explore,” Bingham said, “but start from a basis of faith.”
Some questions “will not have answers,” she said, “but I have to be faithful and put them on the shelf, trusting that Heavenly Father loves me enough to help me move forward without all the answers.”
Jones also recognized the value of open-endedness.
“We all have questions and that’s OK,” she said. “But it’s important to put as much time into our spiritual indoctrination as into the internet and what that would tell us.”

SixtyFeet’s Child Sponsorship program is unique. We provide school opportunities exclusively for children and teens who’ve been in prison or in contact with the law.
Ugandan children love to learn. Every day, we see their eagerness to explore and create at the children’s prison and remand centers. However, for most children, school is not free – their families have to pay for tuition, supplies and resources. To put one child in school can cost a family half of their income. This means school is totally out of reach for many Ugandan children. They have no chance of a well-rounded education – unless someone sponsors them.
SixtyFeet’s Child Sponsorship provides everything that a child needs to thrive in school:
More than 50 items are requirements for attending school. If a child shows up for class without these items, he or she could be turned away.
Only 1 in 4 Ugandan children receive more than a primary school education (UNICEF).
Most of the children we work with have been in the children’s prison – or in trouble with the police – for begging on the streets, petty theft, or misdemeanors. Simply put, their parents can’t afford to send them to school, so they end up running with the wrong crowd. Some children – orphaned or abandoned by their families – turn to begging and stealing to survive. Many children at the prison and remand centers have broken no laws. They were taken off the streets during one of the frequent police sweeps – a classic case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Children are chosen for Child Sponsorship based on their individual Vulnerability Report, produced by SixtyFeet social workers. Selected children generally fall into at least one of the following at-risk categories: just released from the children’s prison, recently reunited with their family, children with special needs (including mental and developmental disabilities), and deaf children.
How Can I Help
Your gift of $50 per month ($600 per year) covers the entire school expenses for one child. Expenses include tuition, school uniform, books, and other required items. Your one-time gift of any amount helps equip the most vulnerable children – including those with disabilities – for success in school.
About SponsorshipBecause SixtyFeet is Christ-centered in all that we do, children encounter the Godly influence of our Ugandan staff counselors – even after they’ve returned home and start going to school. We check up on them regularly, and encourage them to seek God, pray, attend church, and share the Good News with their classmates. Many of the children who graduate from SixtyFeet’s Bible-based counseling program at the prison and remand centers pursue Jesus and grow in their faith, exhibiting Christ-like behaviors and leaving their old lives behind.Our Ultimate Goal is to see children THRIVING in their homes and communities, ADVANCING academically, and LIVING OUT the Christian life for all to see.

Is 350 or 327 engine better?
With all other things being equal—-the 327 will rev higher (short stroke)—-the 350 will make more torque (more cubes-longer stroke).
Both are great engines and respond well to performance upgrades!.
How much is a LSA engine?
Give us a call today to get a quote on your turn-key crate engine! Price Range: $18800 to $19408.
How much horsepower does a LSA have?
We’ve updated the LSA package with the production variant from the fifth-generation Camaro ZL1, featuring 556 horsepower and 551 lb. -ft. of torque.
What is the most powerful small block engine?
LS9 engineThe most powerful small block ever produced is the LS9 engine used in the current Corvette ZR1. It is rated at 638 horsepower, making it the most powerful engine ever produced by GM for a regular-production car.
What’s the difference between LSA and ls3?
Both LS9 and LSA are 6.2L engines biased on the LS3. … Both are built to be 20% stronger than the LS3 short-block, according to GM, and even have forged (LS9) or hypereutectic pistons (LSA) with oil-spray cooling to handle the pushing power.
What size engine is a LSA?
6.2LThe LSA is a supercharged, Gen. 4, 6.2L, aluminum block engine.
Why is a 327 better than a 350?
A 327 with it’s shorter stroke would need shorter gears so it can GET to its revs, where a 350, with its slightly longer stroke and more torque output will pull a little taller gear than the 327 will. … Never underestimate the importance of gearing. It is every bit as important as the engine itself.
Will 327 heads fit on a 350?
They are perfect for a 350. Both the 327 and the 350 have a 4″ bore so they like the same heads. Old heads like that will have softer valve seats, so if you want them to last a long time, you should either replace the seats or run leaded gas in the engine.
Will a 327 crank fit a 350?
Registered. 350 and 327 have the same bore but different strokes (3.48-3.25) so putting a 327 crank in a 350 will do nothing but make it a 327. They have different main bearing sizes or somthing like that so it would be easiest to find an old 327 block and crank rather that trying to fit a 327 crank into a 350 block .
What is the fastest Chevy motor?
Our fastest crate engine ever As the power behind the 2019 Corvette ZR1, the new supercharged 6.2L LT5 represents the pinnacle of Chevrolet’s performance: It’s the most powerful engine ever offered in a Chevy production vehicle.
What cars have the LSA engine?
The LS9 has a 4-lobe Eaton 2.3 L supercharger on top, while the LSA has a smaller 1.9 L. Both are the most powerful engines offered in their respective cars, the LS9 in the Corvette ZR1, and the LSA in the CTS-V and hopefully the Camaro Z28 one day. The LS7.R and the LSX are two all-out race engines in the family.
Which LS engine is the most powerful?
LS7In stock form, an LS7 makes 505 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque making it the most powerful naturally aspirated engine that General Motors has ever put in a production car.
What is Chevy’s biggest motor?
2015 Corvette Z06 The most powerful car GM has ever built is the 2015 Chevy Corvette. With a 6.2 liter V-8 supercharged engine, this bad boy pumps out 650hp. Chevy engineers have attainted this feat with an engine similar in size to the LT1 making it one of the smallest compact engines capable of creating 650hp.
How much HP does a LSA blower add?
The LSA has a very small camshaft. Upgrading to a LS9 camshaft is worth about 30 hp, however, it won’t make more power until 4,800 rpm. It’s really only worth it if you plan on running at high rpm. Larger, aftermarket cams can add about 50 hp.
Does LSA have forged internals?
The fact that the LSA uses the same bottom end as the LS3, and doesn’t use forged internals like Ford does in their GT500, or the LS9 uses or many of the FI engines do, always made me a little bit un-easy, especially about modding the car.

USC reserve quarterback Ryan Hilinski is ending his two year association with the program. Hilinski’s name is in the NCAA Transfer Portal as of Wednesday. Hilinski can take advantage of the one year free transfer the NCAA is providing and be eligible immediately at his next stop in 2021.
Hilinski was one of the more highly decorated recruits signed by former Gamecocks coach Will Muschamp. He was part of the 2019 class, arriving from California with his entire family moving to the Palmetto State. He was rated a four-star prospect in the 247Sports Composite and ranked the #2 pro-style quarterback in the country.
Hilinski got the chance his freshman season to show off his talents after starting quarterback Jake Bentley was lost for the season after game one. He went on to pass for 2357 yards, 11 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. But new offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Mike Bobo went a different direction in 2020, opting first for Collin Hill and then Luke Doty. Hilinski appeared in just 2 games and attempted only 6 passes.
Hilinski perhaps was better known for his activities off the field. He and his family promoted their Hilinski’s Hope Foundation in memory of his brother Tyler who died from suicide in 2018. Hilinski also involved himself in a number of charities and social movements during his time in Columbia.

Facebook announced the deployment of the Facebook Platform during the f8 conference on May 24, 2007. Facebook initially included 85 applications in the deployment. The platform and its apps became an instant hit. For example, the photo editing application Picnik added 100,000 users in the first 3 days. Meanwhile, hundreds of developers rushed to create Facebook apps for the masses of Facebook users. The most popular apps included iLike, TopFriends, and Graffiti. Users learned about new apps on their News Feeds which published stories when friends added apps. Many applications saw such fast and unexpected growth that their servers died out. Another advantage for developers was that they could place ads on their Facebook application and collect all of the money earned.
While all numbers indicate that the Facebook Platform has been a huge hit, there has also been some criticism. With time, many began to criticize Facebook's platform for having too many frivolous apps. Some doubted whether it was such a great distribution tool after all. As of October 2007 there were over 6500 applications, but only the top 3 apps, TopFriends, FunWall, and Super Wall have over 1,000,000 active users, and only 58 apps have over 100,000 users. Additionally, 6 of the top 10 are created by Slide and RockYou. Another criticism was that many apps were abusing the platform through tricky spamming methods. Facebook has begun to close up some of these holes. A couple other criticisms of the platform were scalability issues and that developers must use the Facebook Markup Language (FBML) for the front end design, as opposed to the ubiquitous HTML.

The Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning that the seizure and bipolar medication Lamictal (lamotrigine) can cause a rare but potentially life-threatening immune response.
This life-threatening immune response, known as(HLH), causes an uncontrolled immune response and can present as a persistent fever greater than 101° F. HLH can also lead to severe issues with blood cells and organs like the liver, kidneys, and lungs.
Lamotrigine is commonly used as a maintenance treatment for patients with bipolar disorder to helpdepression and mood episodes of mania and hypomania. Patients who abruptly stop taking lamotrigine before talking to their physician can suffer seizures, as well as new or worsening mental health issues.
The FDA isthat health care providers be aware of the connection between lamotrigine and HLH and be able to recognize and treat the immune response promptly to improve outcomes and decrease mortality. This can be difficult because of the nonspecific nature of HLH symptoms like fever and rash. HLH is commonly confused with another known as Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS). Patients should be evaluated if they develop fever or rash and immediately discontinue use of lamotrigine if HLH is suspected.
The basis for the new warning is eight cases worldwide of confirmed or suspected HLH involving “reasonable evidence that lamotrigine was the cause of HLH … based on the timing of events and the order in which they occurred,” the agency said, noting that this number includes only reports submitted to the FDA and found in the medical literature during the 24-year approval history of the drug, so there are likely additional cases about which we are unaware. The eight patients were all hospitalized and received drug and other medical treatments, with one dying.

Professor of Political Science David Ost recently authored a review essay for the Winter 2013 issue of “Dissent,” a quarterly journal of politics and culture. The piece, “Journalism and Revolution,” reviews Artur Domoslawski’s biography of the acclaimed Polish journalist Ryszard Kapuscinski.
The life of Kapuscinski is one of near-mythos. A prolific journalist of the so-called Third World, starting in the 1960s, Kapuscinski became known internationally for his brilliant dissection of power, particularly absolute power, and his incredibly rich, spot-on accounts of everyday citizens as they live their lives in the face of upheaval. With a prose that combined allegorical reporting and philosophical observations, Kapuscinski’s reports blurred the divide between reality and fiction, and often obscured the truth of his own existence.
In his reading of Domoslawski’s biography, Ost examines the author’s use of questions about Kapuscinski’s enigmatic personality to form questions about his journalism as a whole. “Were [Kapuscinski’s] books journalism? Were they about what they were supposed to be about? Can we know? What of his legendary encounters with world-historical revolutionaries? Were they real?” Ost asks.
Ost’s review praises Domoslawski’s work. “Domoslawski spent years researching the book, traveling the world in his mentor’s footsteps. He spoke with friends, fellow journalists, subjects of Kapuscinski’s reports, and spent many hours with the ‘master’ himself,” writes Ost. “The result is a spectacular piece of literary investigation that takes us on an exploration of the meaning of journalism and tells us more about political life and choices in Poland during the communist years-and, in particular, how a leftist could maintain himself as a leftist during that time-than perhaps any book that has appeared to date.”
A member of the political science faculty at HWS since 1986, and a frequent lecturer in eastern Europe, Ost holds a bachelor’s degree from State University of New York at Stony Brook and a doctorate from the University of Wisconsin. His research focuses on labor and politics, democracy and capitalism, and he tries to get at these big questions with a particular focus on eastern Europe.
Ost is also the author of two books on Polish politics: “Solidarity and the Politics of Anti-Politics” and “The Defeat of Solidarity: Anger and Politics in Postcommunist Europe.” He has more than 40 articles published in journals, and is on the editorial boards of Politics and Society, East European Politics and Societies, the Polish Sociological Review, and several other European journals. He has also been featured on the BBC, PBS, the “McNeil-Lehrer Report” and on numerous major radio stations.

Teen among victims of live-streamed double homicide, police say
(Photo courtesy Vacaville Police Department; Graphic by Solano NewsNet)
The Vacaville Police Department on Monday provided television news outlets with additional details about a gruesome double homicide investigation that occurred over the weekend.
Early Saturday morning, police were called to an apartment complex along the 500 block of Rocky Hill Road after receiving a request for a welfare check. Police were told that a man was inside an apartment unit with a gun and what appeared to be the deceased bodies of two women as shown on a social media live stream.
When officers arrived, they say 29-year-old Raymond Weber barricaded himself in the unit for several hours. A S.W.A.T. team was brought in to assist police, and Weber was eventually captured.
On Sunday, a Georgia woman identified one of the victims as 26-year-old Savannah Theberge of Salt Lake City. The woman, whom Solano NewsNet is not naming, said Theberge was her daughter and leaves behind a 4-year-old son.
The mother said reviewed a copy of a live stream that circulated on social media and said the tattoos on one of the victims resembled those found on her daughter’s body. Solano NewsNet obtained a copy of the video and compared the victim to social media photos posted by Theberge. The tattoos were a match.

Responding to media inquiries on Monday, the Vacaville Police Department confirmed the ages of the two victims as 15 and 27 years old. (The age discrepency between Theberge and the unnamed 27-year-old may be explained by her mother’s claim that her birthday is this week. Despite a request, the Vacaville Police Department has not provided Solano NewsNet with any information on the case.) Police and cleanup crews were seen processing the scene of the crime and repairing damaged windows on Monday, according to news reports.
Weber’s connections to the victims have not been confirmed, but Theberge’s mother said she had been told her daughter and the suspect were recently engaged. It’s not clear what brought the two and the third victim to the apartment unit in Vacaville; Weber has ties to Santa Rosa and the Sacramento area.
The incident captured international attention after Weber, a local rap artist, live-streamed himself with the bodies of the two victims on a social media platform just before police arrived to the scene. During the live stream, Weber claimed the killings were retribution for an alleged set-up involving his brother, also a local rap artist, and an unknown second individual.
“They tried to set me up,” he complained. “[He] tried to have me killed.”
Weber later said in the video that he was unlikely to survive a confrontation with police.
“The police are going to come in, and I’m going to get them,” he asserted. “This is the last time you all will see me [online].”
Weber has at least one prior criminal conviction and a parole violation. The violation received local media attention after his younger brother, Antoine Weber, was accused of killing his older brother’s then-girlfriend. The younger Weber is currently incarcerated at the California State Prison in Vacaville.

Forty million Americans were affected by health data breaches in 2019 — a 65-percent increase from 14 million in 2018.
The Fortified Health Security 2020 report, titled The State of Cybersecurity in Healthcare, compiled annual data from 2009 through 2019 and found last year was the highest number recorded since 2015 when 113.27 million records were exposed — an increase of 84 percent from 17.4 million in 2014.
For the first time ever, more than 400 healthcare organizations reported a breach of 500+ patient records in a single year, says the report. Despite continued efforts to make improvements, the report notes that many enterprises still struggle to stay in front of cybercriminals due to limited budgets, human capital challenges and alert fatigue.
Through the first 10 months, the number of reported breaches increased 38 percent compared to the same period last year. In total, over 429 entities have reported a major breach so far, which already eclipses the 371 entities impacted in all of 2018. This equates to more than 40 million individuals impacted by these reported breaches. The organization expects the number of entities reporting a breach to surpass 480 by the end of 2019, the report says.
- Hacking has been the leading cause of reported breaches since 2016 and this year, for the first time, hacking caused the majority of all reported events at 59 percent, continuing a steady rise since 2014.
- According to reported breach data, the attack vector most often used by cybercriminals in healthcare this year was email. Since 2014, the percentage of breaches involving email has increased to over 40 percent. This represents a significant jump since 2014, and this trend is not likely to slow down.
Fortified Health Security predicts 2020 to include:
Double-digit increase in breaches: Healthcare will experience a 10-15 percent increase in the number of entities breached over 2019, with providers being the most targeted and exploited segment.
Continued cybersecurity technology vendor investment and consolidation: Given the amount of investment and focus on threats related to IoT, further consolidation in IoT cybersecurity is expected.
Email as the attack vector of choice: As in prior years, bad actors will continue to use sophisticated phishing campaigns to target and exploit healthcare organizations.
Investment in advanced endpoint technologies: Healthcare organizations will make additional investments in endpoint security technologies to secure the threat landscape at the edge. Remember to consider how your organization will operationalize this technology to extract the most value and maximize protection.

Veterinary institutions started installing magnetic resonance (MR) scanners in the 1990s. Since then, clinical use of MR has grown in parallel with the development of specialized veterinary medicine, particularly in the field of neurology, which has been transformed by MR. Similarly, the introduction of MR for horses has revolutionized diagnosis of foot lameness. As MR imaging technology develops and MR scanners become more readily available to the veterinary profession, there is a growing need for more teaching and research about use of this remarkable modality.

Semiconductor manufacturer Cirtek Holdings Philippines Corp. said Monday it raised P1.37 billion from its stock rights offering. Cirtek said in a disclosure to the stock exchange it listed 249.442 million common shares sold by way of rights offering at P5.50 per share. Shareholders as of July 1 were entitled to purchase 1 share for every 1.68 common shares owned. The shares came with 249.442 million bonus detachable warrants that will be issued free of charge to the investors and as part of the subscription to the entitlement rights. Each bonus detachable warrant entitles the investor the right to subscribe to one underlying common share of Cirtek beginning on the 12th month until the 36th month from issue date at an exercise price of P5.50 apiece. Cirtek said it would use the proceeds from the fundraising exercise to partially retire short-term obligations and refinance working capital of subsidiaries Quintel USA, Cirtek Electronics Corp., and Cirtek Advanced Technologies and Solutions Inc. Quintel USA designs, develops, and delivers advanced high-efficiency, high-performance antenna products and solutions that help mobile network operators increase efficiency, enhance quality-of-service, slash costs and accelerate returns.
Cirtek earlier said it remained interested in listing Quintel in US stock exchange Nasdaq. “The company would like to clarify that the management continues to contemplate the possibility of pursuing an initial public offering of Quintel in the US. However, this is still under consideration as the company is on the constant lookout to further grow Quintel’s business,” Cirtek said. Cirtek said that there is no timetable yet for the planned listing. “While this remains part of the long-term vision, the company is continuously working on riding the recovery wave and is at the forefront having successfully won extension of supply contracts to the top 1 and top 2 ranking carriers in the world for the supply of its 5G new products at a time when the US is at an inflection point for 5G network upgrade transition,” the company said.

Reuters: Manchester City were sensationally knocked out of the FA Cup on Monday by third-tier Wigan Athletic who beat the 10-man Premier League leaders 1-0 in a stunning fifth round upset with a late goal by their talisman Will Grigg.
On a magical night in the world’s oldest cup competition, Grigg secured one of the biggest shocks by slotting the ball home from the edge of the box in the 79th minute after a misjudgement by City substitute Kyle Walker.
Chants of ‘Will Grigg’s on Fire’ echoed around the DW Stadium.
The visitors had played the entire second half with 10 men after midfielder Fabian Delph was sent off in the 45th minute for a sliding challenge on Max Power. The defeat was City’s third of the season, and ended their hopes of an unprecedented quadruple of trophies this campaign.
Manager Pep Guardiola said his expensively-assembled side had done everything they could but paid the price for one mistake.
Wigan will host another Premier League team Southampton in next month’s quarter-finals having now beaten three top-flight sides in their fairytale Cup run.
On a night of stirring memories for the home fans, whose unfancied side beat City in the 2013 FA Cup final and also in the quarter-finals a year later, there was always electricity and the hint of a shock in the air.
That only increased when referee Anthony Taylor, a yellow card already in his hand, reached for the red.
Delph looked stunned, his angry team mates swarming around the official, while Guardiola seethed on the touchline.
The Spaniard, already frustrated by his side’s failure to break through the hosts’ sturdy defence, had to be kept apart from Cook as they headed down the tunnel at the break.
There were also some ugly scenes after the final whistle, with missiles thrown and fans hurling advertising boards onto the pitch.
Media reports said City’s Argentine striker Sergio Aguero was also goaded by a Wigan fan and had to be escorted to safety.
