DO THEY KNOW SOMETHING AMERICANS DON’T?
by Sharon Rondeau
(Dec. 4, 2014) — A video clip depicting Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, speaking about the threat of Iran acquiring intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) is titled “A Message For The Muslim In The White House,” presumably addressed to Barack Hussein Obama.
The video is part of a visual news digest containing items of interest from Israel and around the globe.
For more than a year, the Obama regime has participated in negotiations among five other world powers and Iran with the purported goal of stopping the rogue nation from escalating its nuclear program, which the regime says is for the peaceful generation of power.
A deadline of November 24, 2014 had been set to “reach a deal” on to what extent Iran’s nuclear enrichment capabilities would be permitted. Economic sanctions had been relaxed to encourage Iran’s leader to negotiate with the team of six countries and prohibit it from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
The narrative posted below the video spells Obama’s first name “Baraq.”
Israel Video Network is produced by 12Tribe Films. One of its productions shows a large gathering of Muslim worshipers in the streets of Paris, France and asks, “What if this happens in the United States?”
In 1997, the Middle East Forum reported that “the French way of life is in danger” because of the possibility of “Islamicization over the coming thirty to fifty years.”
Another video produced by the network states that Israel is surrounded by enemies and asks if it can “count on America’s president” for its customary support of the only democracy in the Middle East. The narrator describes Obama’s “hostile” treatment of Netanyahu and his apparently friendly relationship with “Jew-haters.” The presentation claims that Obama has allowed Iran to continue its pursuit of nuclear weapons and that he is “the most anti-Israel American president since the creation of the Jewish state.”
Israel was formed in 1948 after the Holocaust annihilated millions of Jews in Europe and scattered those surviving around the world.
Many Americans suspect that Obama was raised as a Muslim, as he has shown deference to Islamic organizations and reportedly speaks Arabic fluently. His former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright of Trinity United Church, said that Obama was “steeped in Islam” when he first began attending the church in the early 1990s. Obama has said that the Islamic morning call to prayer is “one of the prettiest sounds on earth” to him.
He reportedly spent four years in Indonesia between the ages of six and ten when children were required to be citizens of the country in order to attend school. At least at that time, Obama appears to have been known by the name “Barry Soetoro,” which may be one of the four aliases a criminal investigator said Obama has used.
Israel Video Network was founded in 2011 and utilizes social media to distribute what it describes as “the truth about what is really going on.”

The YMCA has been associated with buff gay guys since The Village People immortalized it in the late 1970s. The real YMCA experience might be very different (not to mention considerably less camp) than the song but nearly 30 years later it’s still delivering a welcoming space for queer users. YMCA has won the Xtra Best 2008 award for best gym for the second year in a row.
“We have a diversity and social inclusion committee that works on all different types of projects,” says Celecia Partap, public relations manager for the YMCA of Greater Toronto, adding that one of this year’s projects was a queer pride week during which the Y held seminars at all its locations on subjects like diversity in the workplace and challenging homophobia.
“We try to foster an inclusive society that welcomes everyone — regardless of background, circumstances or abilities,” she says.
Despite this broad approach to access for all, some locations have become more queercentric than others. The Metro-Central Y, located just two blocks from Church St, has become especially popular as a place for guys to cruise in between circuits.
Although Partap declines to comment on the cruising potential of any particular location, she points out that the decision to locate the Metro-Central in the heart of the village is indicative of the organization’s approach to access. “The Y is about providing programs in communities,” she says.
Although best known for its gyms the YMCA also boasts a number of other services. “We have employment programs that cater to youth as well as adults,” says Partap. “We’re a provider of emergency shelter, supported housing and a place for youth leaders to develop their leadership skills. We’re not just about health, fitness and recreation; when you become a member you have the ability to access all different types of things in addition to the swimming pool, weight room and track.”
Another way the YMCA has distinguished itself from other fitness centres is its pricing. Joining a gym can be prohibitively expensive for many — an aspect to accessibility that is sometimes overlooked — but through its membership assistance program, which promises that “no one is denied access to any YMCA program or service solely on an inability to pay the full fee,” the Y offers reduced rates to low-income households.

THE TOP THREE:
1. USC (2-1)
2. OREGON STATE (3-0)
3. OREGON (2-1)
USC appeared headed for its second straight defeat as it trailed 10-0 against a young Michigan State team. Spartan Halfback Sherm Lewis' 88-yard sprint with a screen pass from sophomore Quarterback Steve Juday had added seven points to Lou Bobich's 38-yard field goal. Then, to begin the last period, USC Halfback Mike Garrett broke 52 yards through guard on a trap. Minutes later, on fourth and eight, Hal Bedsole shoestringed a Pete Beathard pass in the end zone, and USC won 13-10.
Washington fared not so well against its Big Ten opponent, IOWA. For the third straight week the Huskies, who pride themselves on conditioning, appeared drawn and fourth-quartered as they lost 17-7. Neither thunder, lightning, a Northwest deluge nor fading Washington defenses could stop a 93-yard drive powered by Bobby Grier's runs (one for 43 yards) and ending in Quarterback Fred Riddle's one-yard plunge that put the Hawkeyes ahead.
Oregon State is still unbeaten, thanks to a 22-15 win over Baylor that ended like a commercial for tranquilizers. With 27 seconds left, OSU Quarterback Gordon Queen hit Danny Espalin on the Baylor five. Espalin went to the two, was hit, fumbled into the end zone, then recovered for a touchdown. Queen had completed seven of 12 passes on the 66-yard desperation drive and 11 of 22 for the day. Better yet was Baylor's Don Trull, who completed 16 of 28 for 246 yards.
UCLA Quarterback Larry Zeno, who had set up Stanford's touchdown by fumbling a bad pass, and Halfback John White, whose back-pedaling caused the safety that put Stanford ahead 9-3, redeemed themselves as UCLA beat the Indians 10-9. White scored the tying touchdown and Zeno coolly converted the winning point. Similarly, Halfback Clarence Williams did all the scoring as WASHINGTON STATE beat Arizona 7-2. After a reverse 10-yard run for a safety, he dashed 75 yards for the only touchdown.
A more frustrated hero was Wyoming's Tom Wilkinson, who completed 15 of 26 passes for 202 yards and had the Cowboys leading KANSAS 21-7 until big Jay-hawker Guard Greg Roth tore the ball out of his hands and ran 20 yards for a score. Underdog Wyoming was then powerless to prevent a 64-yard Kansas march that* won 25-21.
In the WAC, UTAH Quarterbacks Ernest Allen and Gary Hertzfeldt riddled New Mexico 19-6. ARIZONA STATE demolished Colorado State 50-7 and BRIGHAM YOUNG beat Montana 27-0.

BlackRock and SSgA Plan Cuts, Though of Very Different Scales
Two publicly-traded asset management titans are reportedly preparing layoffs, though over very different time frames and of very different scales.
One unnamed source tells Bloomberg that, thanks to continued hiring in other areas, the BlackRock folks expect to end 2016 with a bigger headcount, despite the cuts. One source reportedly described the cuts as broad-based, both geographically and by business areas.
Meanwhile, the Boston Business Journal and the Boston Globe both report that Boston-based State Street plans to cut up to 7,000 jobs by 2020. That translates into nearly 22 percent of the asset manager and custodial bank's 32,000 employees around the globe. There's no word on how the cuts will impact State Street Global Advisors (SSgA) specifically.
Michael Rogers, State Street's chief operating officer, said at an investor conference last month that they State Street's team will shrink "across the globe [by] 6,000 to 7,000 people over the five-year process due to this technology." Per the Globe, the transcript of that conference just recently became available.
"Now most of these people will be redeployed into new business or are not replaced due to turnover, but that's a big savings for us across the world," Rogers added.
A State Street spokeswoman tells the Globe that the company "will also continue to hire in key areas of the business that are growing, such as data and analytics, or in areas where we need to add expertise." And State Street has still grown by 2,500 in recent years, despite prior layoffs.
Barron's, Fortune, MarketWatch, Pensions & Investments, and Reuters all also reported on the BlackRock cuts.
As State Street, the news about the long-term slimming down plan breaks as SSgA is poised to buy GE Asset Management.

With just five days remaining until the election, supporters of a referendum that would legalize recreational marijuana have massively outspent and outraised opponents.
Two pro-legalization groups raised nearly $2.1 million through Oct. 20, while the Don’t Let NJ Go to Pot, the lone group opposing the legalization ballot question, has raised just $9,913, according to the Election Law Enforcement Commission.
“Assuming all available funds are spent, the marijuana ballot question already ranks eighth among the top ten most expensive public referenda in the Garden State,” ELEC Executive Director Jeff Brindle said.
NJ CAN 2020, a pro-legalization group backed by the New Jersey Branch of the American Civil Liberties Union, raised nearly $1.1 million through Oct. 20, its fundraising buoyed in part by a $200,000 donation from the NJ ACLU.
The Building Stronger Communities Action Fund, a pro-marijuana group backed by Scotts Miracle-Gro Company, raised just over 1 million.
The legalization ballot question won’t go down as the state’s most expensive, but it might crack the top five.
“There is virtually no chance we will see a new record this year given the nearly $27 million price tag of the 2016 referendum on a proposed casino in Northern New Jersey,” Brindle said. “It is possible this year’s ballot question may make it into the top five when the final expenses are tallied.”
A ballot question that allowed simulcasting at state race tracks approved in 1985 cost a little more than $2.4 million, with inflation taken into account. It was the fifth most expensive referendum in the state.
The costs balloon further up the list. The fourth most expensive referendum had a price tag of $3.5 million.
Marijuana legalization could beat that figure, but only if lobbying conducted in past years is included.
“Keep in mind that marijuana interests already have spent $4.1 million on lobbying between 2017 and 2019,” Brindle said. “So, the industry’s overall political investment in New Jersey already has topped $6 million.”

- To make the transition easy, the Mr. Bulletfeeder by Double-Alpha conversion kits includes a complete dropper assembly, a custom powder funnel for pistol calibers (this is not included or needed for rifle calibers) and a new collator plate for the caliber of choice. This will allow you to switch your bullet feeder from one caliber to the next in a matter of minutes.
- The spring output tube securely attaches to the top of the dropper by means of the Spring Adaptor Cap, which attaches and disconnects easily from the top of the dropper. The inner threading grips the coils of the spring firmly, preventing any chance of it coming loose during operation, and allows a quick transition from one dropper to the next.
- All rifle calibers (223,30cal) use the same Small output tube assembly, and so when converting from 223 to 308, the same output assembly is used. As previously noted the rifle caliber kits do not include, or need, the custom powder funnel so you will have to supply your own powder funnel.
However – if you intend to buy a conversion kit to convert a rifle unit to a pistol caliber, or from a pistol caliber to a rifle caliber, you must purchase the appropriate output assembly required, in addition to the conversion kit

CHENNAI: The northeast monsoon last year did bring above average rainfall in the city and the storage reservoirs have enough water to tide over the summer, according to authorities. However, denizens of the Guindy
National Park, the country’s only such facility within a city, may not be as lucky as Chennaiites. The park has water to last only six months.
This is due to the late arrival of the monsoon and availability of less water in the Appalankulam tank in the reserve area, say park authorities. The tank serves as a favourite spot for nearly 132 species of migratory birds
. So far during the migratory season (October to December), the park, spread over an area of 2.82 sqkm and having five natural ponds, has attracted fewer
than the usual number of birds.
“Although there is minimum water in the Appalankulam pond, we are still hopeful of more birds coming,” says G Kamaraj, biologist at the park. The annual rainfall the park receives is not adequate for migratory birds to stay for a long period, he points out, adding: “Winged visitors from far-off places drop in here for short stays, on their way to Vedanthangal and other nearby sanctuaries that are bigger. During the season, they look for algae formations in the Appalankulam pond as a sign of welcome, and stop over for a while to feed on the fish. The open billed stork, rare painted stork, night heron, pond heron, little egret, dab chick, common teal, whistling teal, gargany and pink-tail duck are some of the regular visitors here.”
After park authorities deepened water channels, four tanks are now brimming with water, enough to take care of the park’s water needs for the next six months. However, the Appalankulam tank, located at one end of the park, depends on surplus water from the other four tanks. The National Park has more than 350 species of plants and 14 species of mammals, including the black buck, spotted deer, jackal, small Indian civet, bonnet macaque, black-napped hare, hedgehog and Indian pangolin. The park attracts an average of 3,000 visitors daily.

Seat of Celtic kings is threatened by motorway
The Irish government's proposal to build a new commuter route for Dublin through the valley containing the Hill of Tara has infuriated archaeologists, historians and conservationists.
The battle, which has been depicted as a conflict between Ireland's mystical past and the materialistic modern nation of the Celtic Tiger, yesterday came to the High Court in Dublin.
The hearing, which is scheduled to last for five days, is the culmination of a two-year campaign to stop the 30-mile M3 motorway passing less than a mile from the coronation site of around 100 Irish High Kings in Co Meath.
Dublin's decision to press ahead with the road was challenged by Vincent Salafia, an environmentalist, who has argued that Dick Roche, the environment minister, should not have granted the motorway permission.
Gerry Hogan, senior counsel for Mr Salafia, claimed the legislation used to push through the project was unconstitutional.
He said the National Monuments (Amendment) Act 2004 weakened the role of the Oireachtas (Ireland's national parliament) by giving the minister discretionary powers to determine the fate of the country's heritage. Mr Hogan claimed the state's duty to protect monuments had been "seriously compromised".
Under the terms of the Act, Mr Roche is able to decide whether to preserve a site on the basis of the public interest as well as archaeological considerations.
According to Pat Wallace, the director of the National Museum of Ireland, the Hill of Tara is one Ireland's most important treasures.
Mr Hogan told the court that 38 archaeological sites had been identified along the M3's route.
Tara's importance as a religious centre dates from around 4,000 BC. The oldest visible man-made feature is the Mound of the Hostages, which dates from the third millennium BC.
It is associated with Cormac Mac Art, the legendary Irish High King. Tara became a pagan spiritual and political centre in the third century AD. It has remained a potent symbol of Ireland's nationhood.
During the rebellion of 1798 the United Irishmen camped on the hill, but were attacked and defeated by British troops.
In 1843, Daniel O'Connell, the Irish MP, hosted a peaceful Home Rule political demonstration at Tara that is reputed to have attracted one million supporters.
The application for judicial review is being heard before Mr Justice Thomas Smyth. The environment minister, Meath county council, the National Roads Authority and the attorney-general dispute Mr Hogan's assertion that a wider zone around the hill should be considered part of the existing national monument.
The hearing continues.

Tiffin Allegro Red 33AA
Basic Parts List
This installation was completed in March of 2022. The owners of this motorhome want to be able to travel more and boondock without having to run the onboard generator regularly. They also want the ability to use the motorhome during power outages at their home. The motorhome had a residential refrigerator and a factory installed Magnum 2012 inverter with an ME-RC50 remote panel. The OEM installation did not include a battery monitor with the other Magnum components.
The owners were interested in upgrading their system to better, more capable components, including adding lithium batteries and solar. They went with Victron components for the new equipment and wanted Battle Born lithium batteries. Initially they requested four standard Battle Born batteries because the existing battery tray could only fit four without modifications. I spoke to them about Battle Born GC2 batteries and explained I could get six of them in their existing battery tray. They were happy for the additional storage capacity and agreed to the battery change. I ordered the necessary parts and we scheduled the installation.
The installation went smoothly, with no major issues. As is typical with most diesel pusher motorhomes the wire runs were a bit difficult, but I was able to get everything in place with a bit of work. The owners were very happy with the final product.

Ted Sendler who is travelling to Ireland from the U.S in May is hoping to meet up with some long lost relatives. Ted is the Grandson of Edward J Duggan and Margaret Mockler both originally from the Killenaule area.
Edward, born in July 1867 was the son of Denis Duggan and Ellen Blake, at the time of his birth the family was living in Kilbrennal though may have lived in Crosscannon earlier. Siblings likely included Margaret, Honara, Thomas, John, Patrick, Denis and Michael.
Edward emigrated to America in the 1880’s but other members of the family stayed on in Killenaule (at least for a time) as brothers Patrick, Denis and Thomas are recorded as sharing a house on River Street in the 1901 Census.
Margaret Mockler was born in October 1870 to Lawrence Mockler and Mary Carew (also recorded as Carey) in Mortlestown, Parish of Moyglass. Siblings likely included Bridget, John, Patrick, Mary, Catherine and Ellen.

The establishment and management of a credit data register, and supervision and regulation of the credit data sharing system
Pursuant to the Credit Data Law, 5776–2016, the Bank of Israel has received the regulatory authority to establish a system for sharing credit data.
Experience worldwide shows that many countries hold and maintain credit data sharing systems, with the objective of supporting a competitive credit market, thereby promoting the good of the individual and the good of the economy as a whole. Credit data sharing systems can contribute to increasing the sources of credit, greater credit availability for households, encouraging improvements in the terms of credit, reducing inequality in the economy, optimum management of systemic and prudential risks, and reducing the default rate.
In 2018, the Bank of Israel will launch a credit data sharing system, in accordance with the requirements of the law, will grant licenses to credit bureaus that are expected to begin operation toward the end of the year, will supervise the credit bureaus that will be given access to information and the sources of information, and the users that will connect to the register or to the bureaus, will complete the main regulation process of the credit data sharing system, and will begin a public information and financial education campaign with the aim of helping the public generate the greatest benefit from the system. At the same time, the bank will solidify the operations of the organizational functions established pursuant to the Credit Data Law.


EMBRAER LAUNCHES E-JET FREIGHTER PROGRAM
Brazilian aerospace company Embraer has announced the launch of the E-Jet E190/ E195 Freighter conversion program yesterday. Targeting a niche market between smaller turboprop aircraft and larger narrow body freighters, the E-Jet Freighters offers flexibility, compatibility and fuel efficiency above its nearest competitors.
The E190/ E195 Freighters features new structural modifications to the existing airframe, including a new forward cargo door, a cargo handling system and a reinforced main deck. For the interior, overhead bins will be removed, and new smoke detection and fire suppression systems installed.
What really makes the E-Jet freighters attractive is their ability to offer optimized loading configurations. Cargo carriers can therefore maximize efficiency by better matching capacity to demand. The E-Jet freighters offer greater frequency and better operating economics in smaller markets than larger aircraft.
In total, an E190F can be configured to carry 7 ULDs on the main deck + under floor could carry 3,632ft3 (23,608lb) while the E195F could carry 8 ULDs on the main deck + under floor could carry 4,171ft3 (27,112lb)
The range and payload capacity of the E195F is similar to the B737-300SF (nearly 2,500 nm), but the E195F burns less fuel, generates fewer emissions, and has lower maintenance and operating costs.
With over 700 E190/E195s in service, the market potential for a Freighter conversion program to support the ever growing market demands of e-commerce and logistics is present. The E-Jet conversion program presents an innovative solution to an emerging market opportunity, bringing the concept of right-sizing to the cargo industry by positioning the E-Jet Freighters in a unique market segment, thus allowing airlines to access new markets with the right frequency and right economics.

First of all, welcome to my tiny corner of the internet! As you can tell, here is where I’ll be discussing movies. I prefer to think of these “musings” as short essays and reviews that I’ll post when I have the inclination to write. It should be in a semi-regular basis.
A little bit about me, which I’m sure you’re a little bit curious about as you clicked this link on the head: my name is Chris. I’m 40 years old and I live in Las Vegas, Nevada (though I’m originally from California). I’m currently a film student at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I’m currently looking at graduate school once I finish up here.
As for my tastes, I keep an open mind. I’ll watch the latest blockbuster in the theater and then come home to watch Turner Classic Movies (you can often find me on the #TCMParty hashtag on Twitter). I simply love movies and I love talking about them, so don’t be afraid to message me if there’s anything you’d like to discuss!

MIT unveils project to preserve Afghanistan’s heritage sites through technology and art
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has unveiled a project, “Ways of Seeing,” which aims to digitally preserve Afghanistan’s endangered historical sites using cutting-edge 3D imaging, drone photography, virtual reality, and meticulous hand drawings.
The collaborative effort between MIT Libraries, the Aga Khan Documentation Center, and the Aga Khan Trust for Culture seeks to create immersive “extended reality” (XR) experiences of significant architectural sites throughout Afghanistan.
According to MIT, “Ways of Seeing” currently focuses on four separate historical sites across Afghanistan: the Green Mosque in Balkh, a Buddhist dome south of Kabul known as the Parwan Stupa, the 15th century tomb of Queen Gawhar Saad, and the 200-foot-tall Minaret of Jam, built during the 12th century in a remote location in western Afghanistan. Scholars chose the sites for their architectural and religious diversity, as well as the relative inaccessibility of some of the locales.
“To amass the visual data, MIT researchers worked alongside an Afghan digital production crew that traveled to the chosen sites after being remotely trained to pilot a ‘3D scanning aerial operation,'” explained Nikolaos Vlavianos, a PhD candidate in MIT’s Department of Architecture Design and Computation group. “We collected between 15,000 and 30,000 images at each location using cutting-edge technology and drone photography.”
Jelena Pejkovic, an architect, has shared her approach to creating detailed hand-drawn renderings of the locations. “I wanted to rediscover the most traditional possible kind of documentation—measuring directly by hand, and drawing by hand,” said Pejkovic.
Fontini Christia, a political science professor at MIT and the lead of the project, expressed her vision for the project’s impact.
“The ultimate intent of this project has been to make all these outputs, which are co-owned with the Afghans who carried out the data collection on the ground, available to Afghan refugees displaced around the world but also accessible to anyone keen to witness them,” said Christia.
“This model can be replicated and scaled for other heritage sites at risk from wars, environmental disaster, or cultural appropriation.”
The public release of “Ways of Seeing” is scheduled for the end of June 2023, offering an immersive experience for viewers to explore and appreciate Afghanistan’s rich architectural history.

Rumors about the iPhone 13 have been circulating, including the design carried by Apple and the launch schedule. The latest report seems to confirm the timing of Apple’s iPhone launch in September 2021.
September is always the time when Apple releases the latest iPhone every year. However, due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, in 2020 Apple delayed the release of the iPhone 12 for one month.
Mark Gurman reports from Bloomberg that Apple plans to produce 90 million iPhone13 units. This number increased drastically from the previous year, where the company only ordered 75 million units of the latest iPhone series at the initial launch of the iPhone 12 Series.
Apple’s massive production indicates the launch of its newest iPhone series will take place in mid-September, if that happens then Apple will return to its tradition by launching its newest products in September.
A separate report earlier this year said the iPhone 13 would launch in the third week of September. The possibility is September 14 but it could also be September 24 based on the previous release time, quoted from BGR, Saturday (17/7/2021).
Currently, the world is hit by a shortage of chips, but that doesn’t stop Apple from mass-producing the latest series of iPhones. Apple is a major client of TSMC, which manufactures special A and M series chips for iPhones, iPads, Macs and will likely be a priority.
The iPhone 13 is expected to have four variants. Consists of screens measuring 5.4 inches, 6.1 inches and the Pro Series with 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches. Bloomberg mentions that one of the iPhone 13 models will use an LTPO screen and support a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. Apple has previously used the technology on the Apple Watch to enable the always-on feature.
Other news also mentions that the iPhone 13 will have a smaller notch. It is also possible that the notch will shrink even further next year.

A fine little paring knife. High carbon Damascus (not sure of the exact steels used), HRC of 60. Stunning buckeye burl, one of my favorite woods, and mosaic pins, on the handle,. Some really nice ergonomics on this blade that work with a variety of grips. Overall, the craftsmanship is amazing, and I hope for another HHH in my future (as Randy predicted when I bought this).
I just decided that I like parers with a different profile (less curve). Light home use for testing, never sharpened.
Asking $200, including paypal fees and shipping in the U.S.
blade length: 80mm
blade height: 23mm (at tallest point)
A note about shipping: I live overseas. The only reasonably priced shipping option I have is USPS, so I’d prefer sales to U.S. customers. If you're interested in international shipping, please send me an address (including zip/postal code) so I can get you an accurate quote, but please only ask for this if you're serious and are prepared to add at least $25 for shipping. Knives will take about ten to fourteen days to reach the buyers in the U.S. I’ve been around here for awhile, and have been involved in numerous sales and passarounds. Feel free to be in touch if you have other questions.

The Maine DOE will again apply for federal School Improvement Grant funding that the Department would distribute to help the state’s most struggling schools close achievement gaps.
Maine’s application for SIG funding, which is in progress, will include a “period of availability” waiver request. This waiver would extend the time period in which funds for new SIG awards could be utilized and thus school improvement efforts carried out. If approved, the waiver would take the current limitation of a three-year funding cycle for SIG and extend it to five years. This proposed change to the current grant cycle would benefit local districts as there will be additional time for planning, pre-implementation and sustainability activities related to the SIG program and overall school turnaround efforts.
If Maine is successful in receiving federal SIG funding, schools that are categorized as “priority” under the State’s Title I accountability system would be eligible to apply for the grant and would be contacted with more detail on doing so. Eligible schools include:
|District Name||School Name|
|Auburn Public Schools||Washburn School|
|East Range CSD||East Range II CSD School|
|Eastport Public Schools||Shead High School|
|Harmony Public Schools||Harmony Elementary|
|Machiasport Public Schools||Fort O’Brien School|
|Robbinston Public Schools||Robbinston Grade School|
|RSU 03/MSAD 03||Monroe Elementary School|
|RSU 03/MSAD 03||Mt View Elementary School|
|RSU 03/MSAD 03||Troy Central School|
|RSU 04||Sabattus Primary School|
|RSU 08/MSAD 08||Vinalhaven School|
|RSU 19||Hartland Consolidated School|
|RSU 19||Somerset Valley Middle School|
|RSU 39||Limestone Community School|
|RSU 40/MSAD 40||Miller School|
|RSU 44/MSAD 44||Andover Elementary School|
|RSU 50||Katahdin Middle/High School|
|RSU 74/MSAD 74||Garret Schenck School|
|RSU 83/MSAD 13||Moscow Elementary|
|RSU 84/MSAD 14||East Grand School|
Comments related to the Department’s intent to apply and waiver request should be sent to Maine DOE Federal Grant Coordinator Travis Doughty at firstname.lastname@example.org. Comments will be accepted through Thursday, March 26.
Last year, the Department awarded $1.6 million in SIG funding to the James Otis Kaler Elementary School. The South Portland school intends to raise student proficiency in math and reading by 10 percent annually over the three years of the grant.
For more information about the School Improvement Grant program, visit http://www.maine.gov/doe/sig/ or contact Maine DOE Federal Grant Coordinator Travis Doughty at email@example.com or 624-6709.

Atlético Madrid were forced to share the points with Club Brugge at the Wanda-Metropolitano after a goalless draw.
The result means that the Belgium side guaranteed reaching the UEFA Champions League round of 16.
Brugge collected a total of 10 points with only two rounds remaining till the end of the group phase.
The visitors did not only secure a hard-earned point, but also reached the round of 16 for the first time at the 10th attempt, becoming the second Belgian club to do so after Gent in 2015/16.
Simon Mignolet provided a Player of the Match performance by stopping all the attempts from the hosts, with a total of nine saves, all of them came from shots inside the box.
The Belgium international (34) produced vital saves to keep clean sheet for Brugge, using his experience to lead his team to avoid the defeat.
Mignolet spoke to the media after the historical achievement, and the goalkeeper was elated with that: “This is a dream! We fought until the end, and we finally did it. In previous years, it just didn’t work out for us. We felt this year would be different – and now qualification is ours. But our story doesn’t end here: let’s see how far we can go!”

Can Slamming Your Car Door Damage Your Vehicle?
There’s a lot to worry about these days with our vehicles, from tire thefts to damage from poor road conditions to dents and dings from other cars. One of the most frequently asked questions nowadays, though, deals with slamming car doors. Some people want to know whether it’s possible to damage your car by doing it and if it will cost them a lot of money for maintenance because of it. According to Car Roar, the answer to both of those is a resounding yes. It’s more than possible to damage the door if you slam it often. So, why do people slam doors, and what can you do about it?
Why do people slam the car door?
There are a handful of reasons people might slam the car door when getting in or out of the vehicle. While modern cars and trucks don’t typically need that much force to close the door, the passenger may be used to an older one that takes a bit more forcefulness to get it to latch.
The more a person does it, the more it becomes a habit, which will be trouble when they get in and out of a vehicle. This habit can lead people to no longer think about it. Drivers and passengers can close the door very forcefully without considering how hard they may be closing it.
Additionally, it’s possible that some people may not actually be slamming the door. According to a Reddit post, it could also be a matter of interpretation. The person might have shut the door with a little firmness, but the driver might perceive it as a ‘slam.’ No matter what the reason might be for the passenger to close it with too much force, it will harm the car door to the extent that you could end up paying hundreds of dollars to get it fixed.
How does car door slamming damage your vehicle?
If it happens once in a while, there probably won’t be that much damage. The more people slam the car doors, though, the more likely you’re headed for broken and worn-out parts that you have to replace.
One area that’s affected is the car’s paint. The more the door is forced into the closed position, the more the paint starts rubbing off the edges of the door. If metal is exposed, rust will form, making it even more difficult to do a touch-up.
Elsewhere, the rubber gasket around the inside of the door wears out much quicker than normal. If it tears or thins out, air can seep into the vehicle’s interior, causing more road noise when you drive. It could also potentially make the door harder and louder to close in the future, leading to further damages.
The most expensive damage you could face is the latching mechanisms and the internal door parts. The door latch is what keeps it closed and prevents it from opening while you drive down the road. According to Driver Moola, the damaged latch might cause the door to open, and a passenger leaning against the door could fall out onto the road if they aren’t buckled.
Other internal parts also have a chance to break from the force of wear and tear over time. The hinges, door handle mechanisms, and power window parts are all susceptible to breaking and will need replacing, but the costs won’t be cheap.
How to prevent damage from vehicle door slamming
The easiest and most inexpensive way is to remind the person not to slam the door when they get in or out of the vehicle. If it’s you, be sure to make a conscious effort to avoid slamming so that it won’t become a habit in the future. For yourself and passengers, put up signs as reminders if you see fit.
One other way you can prevent damage from the car door slamming is to install a rubber butyl-type gasket around the edges of the door. This will keep the paint intact and soften the blow when passengers get overzealous with closing the car door. If your car already has one, you might need to replace it as they typically wear out over time.
One last way to prevent costly repairs to your door is to install a smooth door closer. This will make it virtually impossible to slam the door. If someone tries to close it too hard, the mechanism will stop it before it latches and will automatically close it (gently) for you. This is a little more difficult to install but could be worth it in the long run.
With the cost of repairs going up for both new and used cars, the last thing you want to do is cause damage to your vehicle that could’ve been prevented in the first place. Slamming car doors can be controlled once you make an effort to be more gentle with your vehicle.


Alesha Clifford’s super year in football keeps kicking on to new heights.
After switching from W-League newcomers Western Sydney Wanderers to her old club — reigning premiers Sydney FC — in February, the 22-year-old Winmalee resident built on a disciplined and gruelling off-season training regime by securing a place in the star-studded Sky Blues starting line-up.
The talented 182cm tall defender played a key role in Sydney FC’s dominating start to season 2013/14, impressing coach Alen Stajcic in the team’s 5-0 win over Melbourne Victory and the 4-1 triumph against Newcastle Jets.
Her move to the Sky Blues paid off even more on November 27 when Sydney FC flew to Japan to take its place in the inaugural Mobcast International Women’s Club Championships, featuring the best eight teams from Europe, South America and Asia.
Clifford helped her side keep Japanese club NTV Beleza scoreless in its comfortable 1-0 quarter-final victory in Akayama stadium on November 30, combining well with debutantes Anna Green and Chloe Logarzo.
She earned another start in the semi-final at Kanko stadium on December 4 against Chelsea Ladies FC, a leading English FA Super League team bursting to the seams with internationals including Japan’s super striker Yuki Ogimi, England’s Eniola Aluko and American defender Allie Long.
After a shocking start that saw Chelsea score three unanswered goals after 57 minutes, the Sky Blues replied with two goals but could not add to them in the final 10 minutes against their more fancied rivals.
Sydney FC secured third place in the tournament on December 7 when it beat Chilean team Colo Colo 4-2 on penalties after scores were locked at 3-3 at full-time.
Stajcic made five team selection changes, naming Clifford on the bench for the clash, which was played with a spectacular backdrop of a live volcano spitting out thick smoke.
The head coach said he was “extremely pleased” by the effort and discipline put in by the team for the whole tournament.
“We take a lot of confidence and knowledge that we deserve to be here, that Australian football can match it with the best around the world.”
Clifford and her Sydney FC teammates will hope to keep up their world-class form in the W-League after they return to Sydney today.
The Sky Blues face equal-competition leaders Melbourne Victory in their next W-League game at Allianz Stadium at 2.15pm on Sunday, December 15, which will be shown live on Fox Sports.

With the VNT, the power output increased from 102 PS/3600rpm to 144ps/3400rpm. While torque 26.5kgm/1600 - 2400 rpm to 35kgm/1600-2800rpm. Significant improvement was solely due VNT, because the machines used the same, four-cylinder diesel engine capacity of 2.5 liters.
To determine the action of VNT encourage more productive machines, it helps refresh our memories about working turbocharger. Turbo installation goal is to enrich the amount of oxygen into the war in order to fuel combustion. Supplementary oxygen is sucked from the outside. Turbocharger consists of a compressor duty to suck and push air into the combustion chamber. Kompressor has the same shaft with the turbine. If the turbine spinning, spinning compressor also suck the outside air, the turbine exhaust gas is driven from the engine.
In the regular Turbo, to be effective compressor, turbine rotation is needed fast. It can only be produced when the exhaust pressure is high. Or in other words, the new Turbo effective at high rpm.
How to get enough pressure at low engine rpm? This is where innovation VNT. Unlike the regular Turbo, the turbine has blades. Blades the opening angle can be adjusted depending on engine load, rpm, and many other variables. Blades mover is an electric motor.
At low speed, when the exhaust pressure is still weak and ineffective turbine, the blades were closed so that the exhaust gas flow in a narrow area automatically increase the pressure. The result can effectively rotate turbines that makes the compressor work since the lower rounds.
The higher the engine speed, the angle of aperture blades greater to avoid excessive pressure that can damage the turbo.
Since the turbo-related hot exhaust gas flow, the inhaled air temperature increase. And if the hot temperatures make tenuous and depleted oxygen molecules. Therefore, the Toyota Fortuner Diesel comes intercooler between the turbo and intake manifold to reduce the temperature of the heat back so the oxygen content becomes more dense.

No social distancing of tables. Even though they had many available tables, they still sit groups beside each other. Even with a plexiglass between tables they should be spacing out each group at least 6 feet. It should be every other table at the very least. They also did not follow our request which we noted to open table. We asked for a corner location away from most diners as we have an immune compromised guest in our group and yet they seated us right in the middle of the restaurant which was a high traffic area. We had to ask to moved but come on, it was clearly noted on the notes which was obviously not read. Disappointing experience as we did not feel safe as they packed the dining area.
It was our first visit here. We used to come here years ago when it was then called Scott’s Seafood.
This place is amazing. Will definitely come back again. Enjoyed the food, ambience and service.
Celebrated our early anniversary and Mother’s Day with our two boys.
The coffee cheesecake is a must try.
I had a great experience I went to celebrate my birthday with my husband and daughter and we all have an amazing time, our sever was awesome and food was outstanding. I will definitely go back because I am officially addicted to their octopus in fact I ordered double.
Most everything about the food and the drinks were very food. The service was very good as well. The one thing that was missing is that we were there to celebrate my birthday and I had indicated that in my Open Table booking and it was NEVER acknowledged by our server. I thought that was kinda lame and unfortunate.
Great Seafood Great Service
This place never disappoints. The black cod is my go to and it is always fantastic. I would highly recommend the Water Grill for date night or a celebration.
This was a very special occasion, in which it was our first family dining in. We chose one of our favorite dine ins. And even though it’s on the higher end, it was a perfect place to have our first dine in since the beginning of the pandemic. Our waitress was very good to us and catered to our need. She even took our kids for a quick tour of the lobster and shrimp tanks. Thank you Water Grill for your delicious meal, your continued efforts on following CDC dine in guidelines, and for having fantastic staff.
Jason made our lunch a fun experience. He’s is very attentive as well.
Amazing food and drinks with great service
Food is always good but service was mediocre.
Our server Brandon was amazing! Very attentive and friendly.
Everything was perfect! Our waiter Brandon was very tentative and extremely polite.
Beautiful open setting but a lot of traffic noise due to the parically opened windows in the patio area. Very inviting bar areas. Attentive service and outstanding valet guys!
Wonderful service! Kitchen was visible, which allows for guests to view immaculate
setting for food preparation. Will be returning soon, difficult to make a menu selection!
Had a wonderful experience. Our server was so sweet and the food was amazing.
Excellent service. Entree delivered to the table prior to first course being finished. A freshman mistake. A bit pricy.
Good food, excellent service. The plastic barriers between tables seem a little unnecessary and ruin some of the ambiance of the dining room (which is great). Apart from that, excellent and one of my favorite spots in OC
Unique seafood menu and everything cooked to perfection
Service was great as usual
Love this place! service and food is outstanding.
Tori was our server and she did a great job. Food was awesome as always.
Everything was exquisite & delicious minus the halibut cheeks. Our waitress Katee was lovely and so accommodating!
Pan roasted halibut is pretty good recommendation. Staff service are great!
Excellent ambiance and great food! Service was very slow and we were seated about 20 minutes after our reservation time but only because some tables were staying seated longer than anticipated. I’ll definitely be back to try more of the food and enjoy the energy of the restaurant!
Amazing experience as always, especially when the Santa Barbara Prawns are in season. Celebrated Mother's day, wife and mother had the Halibut and Chilean Bass specials, both were outstanding. I had the New York strip, with a side of mashed potatoes. Overall we love Water Grill, it's been a favorite of ours since it open.
One of our favorite restaurants!
Plexiglass between tables. Windows open for ventilation. Outdoor seating as well but felt safe. Food was marvelous and so was my drink.
It was our first time at Water Grill to celebrate Mother’s Day. I was able to secure a reservation at 9 pm which is unusually late for us to have a dinner. But the restaurant did not disappoint. We had delicious food and a great experience and will definitely come back. Compliments to the Chef and the staff. Thanks.
Service was excellent! Our waitress was incredibly attentive. When another server brought out our side item before the entree, she asked us if we would like her to bring it back to the kitchen and get
Drinks and service were amazing. We had the octopus, beet salad and the lobster roll. Food was pretty good
I will ask for a better table location, next time.
First time and had a great experience. The food was delicious and our server was great.
Horrible food. Came out raw. Seating is cramped. Service is horrible. Used to be our Sunday spot but we will be looking elsewhere
Mother's day. Nice atmosphere with amazing food
We had the best time for Mother’s Day. Thank you
We had Mother’s Day lunch at Water Grill & it was absolutely wonderful. Great menu, Great staff & a Great day.
Extremely long wait for our food.
Our waitress was very attentive and helpful as to explaining the meals we were interested in.
Great upscale attention and food. Will come back.
Wonderful dinner. Masks weren’t being enforced and the place was a little overcrowded. The food was delicious and our server was attentive. We would come back but policies should be followed. For the prices we want to feel safe.

Modern day Rotterdam carries no resemblance from the old Rotterdam, a city that was reduced to rubble in May 1940 to push the fearful Netherlands into a premature surrender so that the German airforce would never repeat the same feat on its other thriving cities.
Rising from the ashes, Rotterdam 2.0 would eventually emerge with an ambitious focus towards experimental structures and defining its very own approach to urban living – whilst still conserving its outward tilt and an international presence and identity shaped by the rivers and seas.
With world class leading architects not burdened by the need to respect historical skylines and aesthetic merits on a ‘blank canvas’ as you would call it, this means that Rotterdam may well not be the city for every city breakers’ taste. The cobblestoned and filmset-ready streets that are present in Europe’s greats the likes of Amsterdam, Paris or Brussels are not to be found here and that’s a crucial detail to know before you visit.
However, for the curious with an appreciation to post-war architecture and unconventional designed building blocks, who wishes to ride a bicycle under, over and through these outstanding masterpieces; or even to those who adore that sense of visiting a radical-thinking city not defined by tourists but rather by the people who call it home, then this is the place for you.
It’s modern, sometimes quirky and absolutely (Rotter) damn awesome!
Here are some of my favourite things to do.
THINGS TO DO IN ROTTERDAM
Cube Houses for The Gram’
I’m not too sure what Piet Blom was smoking back in the 70’s, but I sure am glad that his odd concept was given the green light by the local city council.
He was approached to connect two plots of land that are separated by the busy Blaak Road. Obviously he was faced with some challenges but his solution has grown into the most significant icon and has since attracted people to Rotterdam.
The Kubuswoningen, more commonly known as Cube Houses, are oddly enough a definition of quirky and out-of-world kind of creativity. I mean who would have thought of it – well, Blom’ did.
Each house is tilted at a 45 degree angle, where only a quarter, roughly about 100 square meters of each cube’s floor are space that can actually be used. Not too sure how full-time residents feel about this – must be a nightmare with such a small space.
However, what they lack in conventional living space, they make up for plenty of architectural curiosity and the creative ingenuity that are expressed by these designs. It still feels daring, even after 40 years.
Location: Overblaak 62, 3011 MH Rotterdam
Cost: The exterior of the house is free, whilst the Kidj-Kubus (Show Cube) is currently a museum that is also open to public from 11am to 5pm the entry is €3.
Best Time to Visit: Bear in mind that this is a very popular spot and that it can get very busy. If you want to snap photos and not have the crowd around, I’d recommend arriving there at 9am. A key note; the cubes are actually occupied with actual people living in them, so be mindful of their privacy when you snap photos.
Tip: Fancy staying in one of these houses yourself? Strayokay allows you to do just that.
Get to Know The City’s Art
While you can enjoy the city’s finest work of art out in public spaces through their buildings, street art and dotted sculptures; including the infamous ‘Dirty Santa’ – the city is also known as the epicenter of creatives and artists in the Netherlands.
For city explorers, the ‘Museumpark’ is the best starting point to get a good feel of the culture. In addition to it being a public green space as well as a sculpture garden, there are more than a dozen of Rotterdam’s main art and museum attractions that are located close by; namely the Netherlands Architecture Institute, the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen and the Het Nieuwe Instituut. Sadly, I did not make it to any of these museums but if you did let me know how it went in the comment box below.

Once you’re done snapping hundreds of photos at the Cube Houses, head across the road to one of Rotterdam’s 2014 addition and the most notable landmark – one that will help keep your tummy full before you continue exploring the city – the horseshoe-shaped Markthal.
The market hall (or Markthal) is another unique architecture and is the first covered market hall in all of the Netherlands.
But why would they need a covered market hall? It is due to stricter regulations on selling produce like fish, meat and cheese out in the open air. And as usual, (I think this is cool) – the city of Rotterdam saw the limitations as an opportunity to innovate and create a building that steals the show yet again. It not only adhere to the regulations, but is a mindblowing mix of smart architecture and multi-use space.
Some Markthal Fun Facts:
Rotterdam’s mix of 170+ nationalities are encapsulated in the vendors and restaurants housed in this market hall.
This 4,000 tile artwork displayed on the curved ceiling is also known as the ‘Horn of Plenty’, which apparently has led to some tougue-in-cheek references (I assume) to the market hall as ‘Rotterdam’s Sistine Chapel’
Interestingly, Markthal houses 228 apartments, many of which has square-sized windows within the ceiling that face into the hall!
Tip: If you want to snap photos of the Markthal (because, let’s face it, you know you want to), I recommend you reach to this place early, at 11am, when most vendors are open but before people begin arriving.
As for eating, wait a little to get some atmosphere rolling. Maybe wait for busier lunch hour and consider to indulge in food at the dining area that are directly above the stalls. Some are specifically for customers of that particular eatery, however you’ll still find other places that are for everyone.
Location: Verlengde Nieuswtraat
Open: Daily 10am to 8pm
Places to Eat in Rotterdam
As one of Europe’s most multicultural cities and as an known as the region’s city capital of cool, Rotterdam offers a wide selection of eateries that are affordable for city explorers. Aside from eating at the Markthal for breakfast or lunch, there are other options I recommend you check out.
Jack Bean: Just across the Centraal Station, you’ll find Jack Bean. If you are all about eating a plant-based meal and you want to get around to do your eating quick – Jack Bean offers fast food burgers, wraps, noodles and salads that are not just cheap but are also delicious. They source their ingredients locally and they strive towards a waste free-kitchen. Leftovers go through composting and scraps are reused in their recipes. Happy people, happy planet.
Kampong Express: This cozy neighbourhood eatery serves authentic traditional Malaysian food in Rotterdam. You’ll find they serve homemade iconic Malaysian dishes such as Nasi Lemak, Hainan Chicken Rice and Laksa. They even serve grilled lamb and chicken sate. Definitely a budget-friendly place to try.
Burgertrut: Just a few minutes walk from the Centraal Station, there’s a Rotterdam institution that serves up all types of burgers suitable for vegans, vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. However, keep in mind that this place is closed on Mondays. Where? It’s on Gouvernestraat 2B.
Chill Out and Eat at Witte
Given that my trip to this vibrant city only lasted for one day and not very much time, Witte de Withstraat is definitely one place I wish I had time to explore. Its a central artery, lined up with restaurants and bars along the streets.
What I found from vigorously Googling, was that Witte was once considered the embodiment of cool, at least according to the locals. Although today, that coolness may have been lost to their neighbours in the North, it is still your best bet to have a lovely afternoon or an evening drink (or two).
I hope that this article has inspired you to visit Rotterdam with this itinerary. If you have any questions about this trip or have your own travel tips, please share them in the comment below.

Need to reserve a table as it is a small restaurant. Only reason it is not a 5 is the closeness of the tables and the resulting noise. The food and service were excellent. Two of us had the beef short ribs and licked the sauce off the bones after eating all of the meat. The rice and black beans were a perfect side. The ladies ate the Pork Yucatan and Shrimp Ajillo and enjoyed them. No we didn't want the desert menu.. well maybe.. and they were very good. We would strongly recommend dinner here.

Wilmington's Layton Home to become permanent housing for homeless veterans
Delaware's Center for Homeless Veterans is doubling its capacity and taking its services to the next level with a new property in Wilmington.
They're acquiring the city's long-vacant Layton Home for the Aging and turning it into permanent apartments for veterans and their families. It comes after the first year of the state's push to house all homeless vets.
David Mosley is the center's director, himself a U.S. Air Force vet who was once homeless for two weeks while unemployed in Philadelphia. He says giving veterans a permanent address is vitally important.
"The biggest thing that hits a homeless veteran is the one that applies for VA benefits, and the VA can't contact them to say they need something, or that their benefits have come through," Mosley says. "You're just lost."
His group is the first in Delaware to get federal vouchers for homeless veteran housing. They'll build 51 studio, one- and two-bed apartments total, with extra funding help from the state and the city of Wilmington. The project is set to cost about $3.5 million overall.
Tenants will pay 30 percent of their income as rent, with long-term lease options.
"They'll have their own housing, plus have the camaraderie of the other veterans around them," Mosley says. "You're actually giving them more than a hand up -- you're giving them the security of knowing they're in their own place, and all they can go from there is up."
The building is set to re-open as the Pearl, named for David's mother, next spring. It'll take rental applicants from homeless veterans in transitional shelters and other programs run by both the Center for Homeless Vets and the VA. Mosley says they aren't worried about filling every unit.

Las Vegans know all about all-you-can-eat buffets.
But an all-you-can-fly airline? Not so much.
Next weekend marks the arrival to McCarran International Airport of Surf Air, which tells customers they can fly all they want for a set monthly price.
It’s an interesting departure from the traditional high-end charter airline model, one that analysts say will require more than the three planes the company currently flies to flourish.
To become a Surf Air member, a customer pays a one-time membership fee of $500, then $1,350 a month to subscribe. For that, customers can fly as often as they want on the airline’s 18 daily flights and can book as little as minutes before departure.
Rates are expected to go up after next weekend, so it’s definitely something more for the business Road Warrior than for Ma, Pa and the kids.
Customers can book only one round trip at a time, but if they buy into a higher membership tier, they can hold multiple itineraries.
Because Surf customers fly from small executive terminals, they aren’t subject to the hassle of security screening. They can literally drive up to the plane (park for free!) and board their flight within minutes.
Surf also sells prospective members on the comfort of the six-seat Pilatus PC-12 turboprop planes that can be configured for in-flight meetings.
Surf Air serves Santa Barbara, Calif., the San Francisco-area San Carlos Airport and the Los Angeles suburban airports in Burbank and Hawthorne. After the airline’s Saturday launch at McCarran, Surf Air will expand to Truckee Tahoe Airport on May 2 with plans to add Palm Springs, San Diego, Sacramento and the Sonoma-Napa Valley area in the future.
You might say Surf Air CEO Jeff Potter is exploring a new frontier.
The former top executive of Denver-based Frontier Airlines, Potter took the helm at Surf about a month ago, after leading Exclusive Resorts, a private-membership destination company.
“It’s a great summation of what I’ve done in my career,” Potter said in a phone interview. “It’s a really fantastic model if executed correctly.”
Potter said the airline had a list of prospective customers that said they’d sign up as soon as Surf flew to an airport near them. He said Las Vegas was high on the list of prospective cities, which is why it was selected as the first non-California destination on the route map.
And it probably didn’t hurt that Zappos’ Tony Hsieh is an investor.
A New York-based aviation analyst said the Surf model can be profitable, but it’s going to take more fleet and more destinations to accommodate anticipated demand. After all, with a schedule of three planes flying six flights each a day, the company is only talking about having 108 customers a day, which wouldn’t even fill a 737.
“They could be creating an expectation that can’t possibly be upheld and I worry about that a little bit,” said Robert Mann, a consultant with R.W. Mann &Co. in Port Washington, N.Y.
Mann also said he expects Surf to tinker with the membership fee over time to make sure it has the right formula to accommodate customers and still make money. He said although the airline might have a long list of prospective customers, converting the interested into members isn’t always easy when it comes to writing the check.
Potter isn’t concerned about the acquisition of more planes since the Pilatus, a quiet single-engine plane built for business travel, are available on the market. He said the company has no plans to add different types of planes to the fleet.
SAHARA BRIDGE DETOUR
Anxious road warriors in the neighborhoods around Desert Rose Golf Course on the east side of the valley howled after reading that one of the east-west alternate routes for the Sahara Avenue bridge demolition and reconstruction project would be Vegas Valley Drive.
Vegas Valley has had its own stop-and-go difficulties for weeks as crews installed a pipeline, narrowing the four lanes to one lane with traffic controlled by flag personnel.
“I live in the area and I’m perplexed,” one frustrated reader shared. “The 25,000 cars or so a day that route through Sahara every day are now being pushed to Charleston (Boulevard) or Vegas Valley. Charleston is already overtaxed and Vegas Valley has work on the streets for a treatment plant.”
Fear not, a spokesman for Clark County’s Department of Public Works said. The pipeline project on Vegas Valley was scheduled to be completed before Sahara was closed on Saturday. Unfortunately, Vegas Valley will continue to be an important haul route for the six-month bridge and golf course refurbishment projects, so flag personnel will still be there to manage construction traffic.
But, at least all four lanes are supposed to be open.
United Airlines is cracking down on passengers who bring way-too-large carry-on bags on their planes.
The action is in response to survey results that show passengers are aggravated about storage bins being too full and departures delayed by people trying to find a place to stuff their bags.
United, the third-busiest air carrier at McCarran, was eighth among 10 airlines in a recent customer satisfaction survey.
United’s MileagePlus loyalty card owners received an email reminding them that the maximum size for a carry-on is 22-by-14-by-9 inches.
Airline officials denied that the crackdown had anything to do with the company trying to push baggage check-ins, which cost passengers around $25 a bag.

Duty to the art must be done, Robert Holman is a veteran writer, it’s his newest play, and a great cast: would go a long way to see Sylvestra Le Touzel and indeed young Matthew Tennyson.
Alys, Always, a adaptation of Harriet Lane’s psychological and satirical bestseller, is neither vital, nor convincing.
Look, as a piece of drama Alys, Always isn’t the best thing you’ll ever see. It’s unlikely to be troubling the Olivier nominations next year I wouldn’t think. But, actually, I sort of don’t care. It’s really good fun; sheer entertainment with a little bit of something to mentally chew over after the show.
Nicholas Hytner finally directs a play by a woman but Lucinda Coxon’s adaptation of novel Alys, Always is a disappointment for me at the Bridge Theatre.
Final casting details have been announced for the premiere of Lucinda Coxon’s Alys, Always, directed by Nicholas Hytner and based on the novel by Harriet Lane, starring Joanne Froggatt and Robert Glenister.
Hogarth’s Progress consists of two plays by Nick Dear: The Art of Success, 30 years old, and a new companion piece, The Taste of the Town, set 30 years later. Both tell the story of William Hogarth, artist and satirist, his wife Jane and a fluctuating cast of friends and enemies.
The oft-misquoted George Santayana once said “those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it” and taking a glance at Nick Dear’s Hogarth’s Progress, you can’t help but feel it is most apposite for the folks at the Rose Theatre Kingston.
Keith Allen and Bryan Dick will star as William Hogarth, older and younger, in the double bill of Nick Dear’s Hogarth’s Progress at Rose Theatre, Kingston. Full casting is now announced.
Rose Theatre Kingston has announced the full cast for Nick Dear’s double-bill Hogarth’s Progress. Anthony Banks directs Bryan Dick as the younger William Hogarth in the first major UK revival of Dear’s The Art of Success, and Keith Allen as the older William Hogarth in the world première of The Taste of the Town.
Polly Findlay’s fluent production of The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie avoids the fluting exaggerations of some previous versions and tells the story with a fine appreciation of its grounding in the needy emotions of all concerned.
Based on the novel by Muriel Sparks, David Harrower’s new stage adaptation of The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie not only marks the 100th anniversary year of Spark’s birth but provides a scorchingly fantastic opportunity for Lia Williams to inhabit the title role so fully.
It’s a short run at the Donmar – take any available ticket, Polly Findlay’s splendidly-cast and nimbly directed production is a must-see. And let’s hope it has a longer life somewhere else.
A hundred years since the birth of novelist Muriel Spark, her 1961 tale The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie has been adapted for the Donmar Warehouse by Blackbird playwright David Harrower and directed by Polly Findlay.
To mark the centenary year of Muriel Spark’s birth, the Donmar Warehouse will present a new stage adaptation of the author’s iconic novel The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, adapted by Scottish playwright David Harrower and starring Lia Williams in the title role (playing from 4 June to 28 July 2018, press night is 12 June).
Do scandals have a sell-by date? When it comes to sex and politicians, the answer is no. The tabloids, and the news-hungry public, still seem to relish a good story about a powerful man who is caught with his trousers around his ankles. So Harley Granville Barker’s Waste — first put on in 1907 and then rewritten some 20 years later — is ostensibly a highly relevant drama of a personal tragedy in which our characteristic national mix of prurience and puritanism gets a longwinded airing. Certainly, the plot is instantly recognisable.

Gardeners often turn to tree stumps in the home garden to create unique and natural designs, however it is not always easy for them to find a stump that fits their needs. This article will teach you how to preserve your own fallen tree trunk into a beautiful backyard design.
If you are looking for a unique backyard design in 2022, consider preserving the tree trunk with bark. The process is simple and can be accomplished by using a few materials that you may already have on hand. Read more in detail here: how to preserve a tree trunk with bark.
When a tree is cut down, you’re usually left with a stump in the center of your backyard. If you don’t want to remove the stump, think about integrating it into the landscaping or perhaps making it a focal point in the backyard. Alternatively, you might turn the stump into a piece of ornamental furniture for any room in your house. Stools, side tables, and planter pedestals are among the most popular DIY projects for treated wood. We’ll go through how to keep a tree stump in this post.
Facts about Stumps
The tree base is still alive after it has been felled and continues to collect moisture and consume oxygen. If a tree stump is left untreated, it may attract pests such as termites, which may spread to other regions. Heat and dampness are common attractants for these bugs. This combination may also lead to mold growth.
Some stumps may soon deteriorate, while others will be fairly robust, depending on the species and the size of the stub. The most durable and simplest to keep are the Western red cedar, redwood, and oak species.
Including It In The Landscape
It might be costly to remove old tree stumps from your yard. Consider making the foundation into an ornamental showcase rather than attempting to remove the tree fragments. You may achieve this by hollowing out the stump and using it as a planter. This method is appropriate for stumps that have already begun to deteriorate on the inside. Before you start, look for termites and get rid of them. If you have multiple tree stumps near together, you may also chop them down flat and create a garden around them. Provided you save the stump, you may use it as a seat or a tree stump table if the top is set flat.
Options for Pedestals
An ancient tree stump may also be utilized as a pedestal, adding to the beauty of your home’s outside. You could put sculptures or colorful globes on top of them, then surround them with flowers and ground cover to create color and texture. Climbing vines and ivy often utilize tall tree stumps as a trellis.
Making A Point Of Interest
It’s possible that you want to construct some beautiful house furniture, such as a stump tree table. After you’ve chopped the stump down to ground level, you’ll need to preserve it. Before applying any kind of preservation chemical to the stumps, make sure they are totally dry. For at least three to six months, store the clipped nubbins in a protected place away from rain or other moisture. This will make the operation simpler by ensuring that the bark is easy to remove.
- Sealant made of polyurethane to help preserve
The following tools were used:
- Orbital Sander with 60, 80, 120, and 220 grit sanding sponges
- Brush made of foam
- Brush scrubbing
- Various widths of chisels
- Brushes for staining are available in three sizes: large, medium, and tiny.
The first step is to use a chisel or rotary hammer to remove the bark. Depending on the age of the stump, you may need to utilize a few different instruments. You’ll probably have to clean up some sap remains as well.
The stump may then be sanded to provide a smooth surface. To get the desired look, you might use two different grit sandpapers. Then vacuum out all of the cracks to get rid of any remaining dust. If there are any substantial or deep cracks, use a wood filler like transparent epoxy to fill them up. To keep the epoxy from escaping out the cracks, tape the sides and bottom of the stump below the fissures.
It’s ideal if you wait until the stump has reached room temperature before applying stain or preserver. The wood may then be treated with a wood stabilizer and sealer to prevent it from cracking, warping, or rotting. Begin with a little quantity of stabilizer and gradually increase the amount as required. As you massage the stabilizer into the wood, it will absorb it. Cover the stump with plastic and allow it to dry for 2-4 hours. Allow for thorough drying between layers of sealant. You may go over the top and sides with two additional coats.
Consider utilizing tree stumps to construct stepping stones around your home if you don’t want to go to the hassle of creating tree stump tables or even a tree stump coffee table. Paint the slabs if you want extra color, as some people do.
The “tree stump decoration ideas” is a great way to preserve the tree stumps in your backyard. You can create unique designs with the help of these plans. The plans also include instructions on how to make a bird feeder and a garden bench.
Frequently Asked Questions
What to put on a tree stump to preserve it?
A: You can use a mixture of sand, sawdust and water to create a preserving agent. It will be the perfect medium to prevent rotting while still allowing moisture in.
How do you make an old tree stump look good?
A: Old tree stumps are difficult to look at because they have been around for a very long time and you cannot change their color. However, if the stump is in an area that people rarely visit then it may be possible to paint or cover up the old wood with different materials like grass or bricks so it doesnt stand out as much.
Can you preserve a tree stump still in the ground?
A: A stump that is still in the ground is considered to be a piece of land and can not be preserved.

The first Assassin’s Creed Mirage artwork seems to have leaked.
The pictures under, which have been circulating on social Media platforms on Thursday morning, could first have been printed by Twitter person @ScriptLeaksR6, who has a historical past of Rainbow 6 leaks.
It’s been claimed that the artwork originates from the Ubisoft Store.
Assassin’s Creed: fifteenth Anniversary Kickoff
If real, it could recommend Ubisoft is planning to launch a DLC quest primarily based on the Arabic folktale Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves for the unannounced however extremely anticipated Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
It was claimed earlier this week that the subsequent entry in Ubisoft’s long-running collection can be known as Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
The declare was backed up by a number of well-informed journalists together with Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, who first reported in February that Ubisoft was planning to launch a smaller-scale, stealth-focused Assassin’s Creed sport that’s nearer to the early collection entries than the more moderen RPG-influenced ones.
Starring Assassin’s Creed Valhalla character Basim, the title was initially deliberate as an growth for the latest collection entry earlier than being spun right into a standalone sport final 12 months, Bloomberg claimed.
Rift is reportedly set within the Middle East, together with Baghdad, with improvement being led by Ubisoft’s Bordeaux studio.
Most not too long ago Bloomberg reported that Assassin’s Creed Mirage can be launched in spring 2023.
Ubisoft has stated it plans to “unveil the future of Assassin’s Creed” in September, when it’s set to carry a multi-game showcase.

Ted Koch, new supervisor of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in Nevada, said last week that despite millions of dollars and decades of work, it’s unclear the Devil’s Hole pupfish can be saved from extinction.
Since 1967, federal agencies and the Nevada Department of Wildlife have jointly managed efforts to protect the fish and its habitat – a single, water-filled cavern in North America’s hottest, driest desert, 90 miles west of Las Vegas.
Groundwater pumping near Devil’s Hole in the early 1970s triggered a legal fight that landed in the U.S. Supreme Court, where justices sided with the government and ordered land owners to stop using their wells.
The population of the inch-long, neon blue fish climbed gradually during the first 25 years of protection, from about 200 into to the 300 to 500 range.
But the pupfish population peaked at 544 in the fall of 1990, and has declined ever since. The biggest disaster came in 2004, when university researchers left a container of fish traps next to Devil’s Hole and a flash flood dumped the traps into the pool. Some 40 fish, roughly a quarter of the population, were trapped and killed.
The spring count two years later showed just 38 pupfish. By fall, the population had rebounded to 85, but now stands at just 75 adults.
Why aren’t the fish doing better? Kevin Wilson, an aquatic ecologist for the National Park Service, admits comparatively little work has been done to understand the fish’s life cycle and the biological system that sustains it. Has fencing off the hole kept away species that once drank there, impacting the ecosystem in ways not understood?
It would be hard to hate the pupfish. We all pull for such an underdog. Modest efforts to preserve this delicate habitat make sense. But come on. The fish are an evolutionary accident, still hanging on where they were stranded by geologic events tens of thousands of years ago. Unless a viable population can be established elsewhere, some future earthquake or other natural calamity will almost certainly drain or alter their limited habitat sufficiently to kill them off, whether it be 500 years from now or next Tuesday.
Meantime, there are plenty of places where all those millions of dollars could have been put to better use.
New species develop, and old species die off, by the thousands every year. Thus adapting, life has prospered for millions of years. To believe we can or should halt this process in its tracks demonstrates hubris on a dangerous scale.
It’s a measure of the wealth of the nation that we feel we can afford to sacrifice our ability to make a living from some of our lands in order to protect some totemic species. But it’s important to ask which part of “we” is paying those costs. Uncounted in the millions of dollars spent to date in efforts to preserve the pupfish is the unseen cost to adjacent landowners, forbidden to pump from their wells the water that would allow them to make more productive use of their land.
Do such landowners receive federal compensation for this regulatory taking? Rarely.
Meantime, millions of Americans on the East and Gulf Coasts live on what used to be wetlands, long since drained and filled, at the cost of the extinction of who knows how many thousands of uncatalogued subspecies of frogs, minnows, snails and bugs. Why do Americans struggling to make a living in the West now bear so much of the costs of species preservation, alone? How would those voters in Massachusetts and Mississippi respond to a proposed Cranberry Bog Restoration Act, returning those lost malarial swamplands to their pristine state – without any economic compensation?
“Species preservation” has become a cat’s paw, employed to block expansion and productive land use by the invasive species most despised by the green extreme: Homo sapiens himself.
The Endangered Species Act must be revisited and limited to what’s sensible and affordable, with a stipulation that full compensation for any impairment of private land value – including lost opportunities to improve human lives through the development of everything from hospitals to sawmills – must be paid promptly in cash.
Because funds for such purposes are not unlimited, this would require proponents to set up a hierarchy of species to be preserved, with such totemic creatures as the bison and the eagle presumably near the top of the list – as they should have been doing, all along.
