WYOMING -- With Easter just a day away, people made a last minute rush to meat markets for kielbasa.
Outside Fetch's Kielbassi Shop on Wyoming Avenue in Wyoming, the Easter bunny waved to passing cars.
Inside, racks of kielbasa waited in an oven, ready for customers to pick up.
People tell Newswatch 16 Easter wouldn't be complete without kielbasa.
Owners say it's been a busy week for meat markets as they've been selling the smoked meat by the pounds.
"Every night this week has been until 2 and 3 o'clock in the morning, trying to keep up with kielbasa and the hams and all the other special orders," said David Fetch, owner.
Fetch said the crowds slowed down on Saturday as people begin to prepare for Easter Sunday.

In 1978, his parents sent him to live in Japan with a Japanese family, an experience that he considered valuable to his development as an individual. He was required to learn Japanese as his surrogate family, who treated him as a son, could not speak English. He said of his experience: "When you are that age, a whole new culture is a major upheaval. But for the better". He had been planning to live in Japan and was offered a job at a Tokyo radio station as an interviewer when he received an invite from Gary Smith to join Images in Vogue.
Key began his career in the late 70s playing as a drummer for the Vancouver rock band Bastille. He also performed as a multi-instrumentalist in the punk band Illegal Youth, which featured Al Nelson, the future vocalist of Hilt. In 1981, Key joined Images in Vogue, a successful new wave group based in Vancouver who had put out an ad looking for musicians with their own equipment. Dave Ogilvie, a local music student, also joined the group as a producer and engineer. Taking up the role as the band's drummer, Key utilized a Simmons electronic drum kit. The band found success touring throughout Canada and opening for groups such as Depeche Mode and Roxy Music.
Images in Vogue released their first single, "Breaking Up", in April 1982, and their first EP, Educated Man, shortly thereafter. The EP was a success, selling 10,000 copies in a span of six weeks and topping a number of college radio station playlists. Bill Leeb, Key's friend from Vancouver's late-night club circuit, had introduced him to early industrial bands such as Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire, and he soon found himself recording his own songs.
Key met Nivek Ogre (Kevin Ogilvie) at a party in late 1982 and asked him to provide vocals for the songs he had made. Ogre accepted and the pair recorded the song "K-9" under the name Skinny Puppy. The pair began using stage names to avoid the confusion of having two people named Kevin in the same band. Key left Images in Vogue in 1985 shortly after the release of their first album, In the House, to focus solely on Skinny Puppy.
According to Key, the concept behind Skinny Puppy was to create music from the point of view of a dog whose "tail’s trodden on" and can only bark and growl. The self-published EP Back & Forth was released in 1984; only 35 copies of the tape were produced. Key brought in Leeb (under the name Wilhelm Schroeder) and Dave "Rave" Ogilvie to help record their second EP, Remission. Terry McBride helped pay for the production and signed them to his new indie label, Nettwerk Records. A follow up LP, Bites, was released the following year.
Key came in contact with The Legendary Pink Dots by way of The Elephant Table, a compilation tape shared within the tape trading community. He met Pink Dots singer Edward Ka-Spel in 1985 while working as a sound engineer on Ka-Spel's solo tour. Key presented Ka-Spel with some recordings he had made, believing that Ka-Spel's voice would work well with them; Ka-Spel agreed after listening to the tapes. The pair formed The Tear Garden soon after and, with Dave Ogilvie as producer, released a self-titled EP later in the year. Goettel joined Key and Ka-Spel for the release of Tired Eyes Slowly Burning in 1987. The album featured the song "You and Me and Rainbows", which ran close to 17 minutes long. The album was noted for using a mixture of psychedelia and electronic influences.
Key hired Dwayne Goettel to play with Skinny Puppy in 1986 after it had become apparent that Leeb was uninterested in touring. Key felt that Goettel's technical abilities and knowledge of sampling helped give the band a new identity. Key's partnership with Goettel strained his relationship with Ogre, who they felt was more interested in pursuing a solo career. Key was displeased with Ogre inviting Al Jourgensen for the 1989 production of Rabies, telling Alternative Press that he believed Jorgensen had intended to break the band up. Key's relationship with Ogre continued to worsen during the recording of Last Rights. In a 1991 interview with Propaganda magazine, he expressed his frustration regarding the recording of the album:
Key mentioned that the intention behind Skinny Puppy's music was to create something that had its own unique and original sound, set apart from groups such as Nitzer Ebb, which he considered "all beat and no music, with lyrics that don't capture what Ogre does". In a 1990 interview with The Pittsburgh Press, Key was apprehensive in classifying his music as industrial, saying that the success of Ministry and Nine Inch Nails had caused the scene to lose sight of its original goal and identity:
Cyberaktif was a collaboration between key and Bill Leeb from the band Front Line Assembly, with Goettel acting predominantly as a support musician. The only album they produced, Tenebrae Vision, was released in 1991 through Wax Trax! Records. The song “Paradiessets” featured vocals from Blixa Bargeld of Einstürzende Neubauten. The band Hilt, a collaboration between Key and Geottel, and Al Nelson, started when Nettwerk challenged the group to produce an album for as little money as possible. The group released two albums, Call the Ambulance Before I Hurt Myself and Journey to the Center of the Bowl, in 1990 and 1991, respectively, before Nelson's death in 2000. In 2018, Key released a number of rediscovered recordings from when the band was called "The Flu". Another collaboration started by Key and Goettel in 1990 was Doubting Thomas, the purpose of which was to produce "soundtracks for movies that never existed". They released their sole album, The Infidel, in 1991 through Wax Trax! Records.
When their contract with Nettwerk ended in 1992, the band signed with Rick Rubin's American Recordings and moved to Los Angeles to begin recording The Process. Ogre quit the band in 1995 and Goettel died of a heroin overdose shortly thereafter; Key managed to salvage The Process, and released it in 1996. He disbanded Skinny Puppy following Goettel's death, saying, "I found it appropriate at the time to put an end to the group ... It's always difficult when you lose a close friend like that". In 1998, Key ran into Ogre at a Bauhaus reunion concert and discussed the possibility of working together in the future. As his relationship with Ogre improved, German promoters began asking if they would be interested in performing as Skinny Puppy once more. On August 20, 2000, Key and Ogre reunited in for a one-off performance as Skinny Puppy at the Doomsday Festival in Dresden.
The band released the albums The Last Man to Fly and Sheila Liked the Rodeo in 1992, both the product of a single five hour recording session. Key said that most of the material from Sheila Liked the Rodeo was recorded by engineers in secret while the band was in the midst of a jam session. Key said of the recording session:
Goettel and Western had created the label Subconscious Communications in 1993 as a means of releasing material for the aDuck project. Following Goettel's death, Key took control of the label and initially used it to release Download and Tear Garden albums. He later opened the label to other musicians, particularly those he had worked with in the past. The unsupportive attitude taken by American Recordings during the production of The Process led to the construction of the Subconscious studio, where most of Key's projects are recorded and manufactured. He believed the creation of the label was a natural consequence to being involved in the music industry and used it to "license the appropriate releases to the appropriate labels". The labels Subconscious Communications worked with included Cleopatra Records, Metropolis Records, and Nettwerk, among others.
Download was created by Key and Goettel as a Skinny Puppy side project in 1995. Other members included Anthony Valic, Ken Marshall, Phil Western, and Mark Spybey from Dead Voices on Air. Download was named after the closing track off Last Rights and sought to create music by way of " fragments of sound and collages". Key told Terrorizer magazine that he thought of Goettel as "an unrecognized pioneer" of electronic music and, following Goettel's death, used Download as a means of keeping his spirit alive.
Download released their first album, Furnace, in 1995. The album was dedicated to Goettel's memory and featured contributions from Genesis P-Orridge. They followed up their debut with two EPs in 1996, Microscopic and Sidewinder. The band released their second full length effort, The Eyes of Stanley Pain, through Nettwerk Records. Key would use live performances to play "Download versions" of songs from old projects like Skinny Puppy. He said, "we don't sing Ogre's lyrics. We do instrumental versions of key segments of some of the older material". Charlie's Family, produced by the band as the soundtrack for Jim Van Bebber's film of the same name, was given a limited release before the film's completion. Van Bebber, who had done video work for Skinny Puppy, approached Key to write music for the film; Key's goal in making the soundtrack was to create something that was "uneasy, unsettling, just plain old uncomfortable". The album III was released on October 21, 1997, and acted as a companion piece to The Eyes of Stanley Pain. With III, Key began to tone down the industrial aspects of his style for a more electronica sound.
Following the end of Skinny puppy in 1995, Key formed PlaTEAU with Western and Valic. PlatEAU, which signed to Cleopatra subsidiary Hypnotic, released their first album, Music for Grass Bars, on May 20, 1997. The band's follow up, 1999's SpacEcake, was described by Exclaim!'s Matt Mernagh as being more akin to Aphex Twin and Autechre than any of Key's previous work. 2007 saw the release of Kushbush + Music for Grass Bars, the first disc of which contained new music while the second disc featured a special edition of Music for Grass Bars.
Their 1996 album To Be an Angel Blind, the Crippled Soul Divide featured a more subdued style in the wake of Goettel's death, and they returned in 2000 to release Crystal Mass. Starting in 2016, the band ran a successful PledgeMusic campaign to support their new album, The Brown Acid Caveat, which was released on July 7, 2017.
Key's first solo album, Music for Cats, was released on February 3, 1998. The album's subtitle read “Subconscious Music Orchestra under the direction of CEvin Key”. The album was made by assembling unused music from The Process into "collages of free-form ambience". He used his pet cats to help make portions the album, sometimes allowing them to walk across keyboards to see what sounds they would come up with. He moved Subconscious Communications to Los Angeles in 1998 and worked on his next solo album, The Ghost of Each Room, which was released on August 14, 2001. The album featured vocal work by Ogre on the track "Frozen Sky". The artwork for his next album, The Dragon Experience, featured Spencer Elden who had been featured on the cover of Nirvana's Nevermind. The photo, taken by Key's girlfriend, was inspired by a dream he had at age 11.
Key's improvisational method for creating Skinny Puppy music was done through what was called "brap", which means "getting together, hooking up electronic instruments, getting high, and recording". His approach to Download differed from Skinny Puppy in that he intended to create a "centre-less musical entity, unanchored by the presence of a frontman" and explore the more experimental characteristics of his previous work. He said "I don't think I strive to be unsettling. I think that that's simply what attracts me to make the sound and hopefully achieve the result that will make that journey interesting for me". He told Chart magazine in 1998 that he considered acts such as The Prodigy, Aphex Twin, and Basic Channel to be at the forefront of the electronica scene.
Key considers himself a pacifist and is a keen animal lover and supporter of animal rights. He is especially fond of cats and made a dedication to them on his 1998 solo album Music for Cats, claiming they played a major role in his upbringing. "I'm a cat lover, and cats have basically been keeping me my whole life". His affection for cats came from his mother, who was a cat trainer and breeder. Out of his siblings, he described himself as the only one who lived "out-on-the-edge" and said that they had led successful careers in their chosen fields. His older brother, who left the family home at 17, became an artist and designer, while his younger sister became a legal secretary. His mother died early in 1985. He stopped using hard drugs in 1994 and supports the decriminalization of marijuana. In a 1998 interview with Chart magazine, he said his choice to stay away from drugs had been a relatively easy decision in light of Goettel's death:
The band continued into the new millennium with the release of Effector in 2000 and Fixer in 2007. In late 2018, Key announced that he and Western had finished work on a new album titled Unknown Room and that it would be released March 8, 2019 through Artoffact Records. According to a press release, the album resulted from "an intense two month studio session" following several years of on-off production.
The pair reformed Skinny Puppy in 2003 and signed with European label SPV, releasing The Greater Wrong of the Right a year later. Key said that the way the band recorded music had not changed much from before, but that the advancement of technology had greatly improved the process. The band followed the album with the release of Mythmaker in 2007 and HanDover in 2011. Skinny Puppy release the album Weapon in 2013 and later sent an invoice totaling $666,000 to the US Department of Defense for the use of its music during torture sessions at Guantanamo Bay detention camp. Key explained that he was troubled by the use of their music as a means of torture and that the invoice was not meant for "financial gain".
In 2011, Key held the SUBcon Beyond Fest in Santa Monica which featured a number of artists signed Subconscious Communications, including Phil Western, Mark Spybey, Download, PlaTEAU, and Tokyo Decadence, and local talent such as Cyrusrex and Wet Mango. Using the name Scaremeister, Key released 31 Spirits in 2014, a compilation of musical pieces he produced for horror film trailers. The name Scaremeister came when Arnold Schwarzenegger referred to Key as "the scare meister" while he finished work on the score for End of Days. In 2018, Key released Brap and Forth vol. 8, a collection of early musical experiments from before Skinny Puppy.
In 2016, Key had reconstructive surgery on his nose and face following the removal of a basal-cell carcinoma. He said in a Facebook update that the cancer had started in his nose before spreading up to his eye and down to his lip. He had a similar surgery 15 years before which left a large scar on his nose.
Currently, cEvin Key is 61 years, 6 months and 1 days old. cEvin Key will celebrate 62nd birthday on a Monday 13th of February 2023.

Question - Stock has pulled back about $5 bucks to around $29. It appears to have given back most of the first half of 2005 stock price gains. What does second half of 2005 look like stock price gains - think stock price can get back to $33 by year end or do we drop below $29 and go lower like $24-$25 range?
If you took the cash value of a share of NRGY and bought lottery tickets you`d have a better chance of gains then buying the stock.

The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mohammed Adamu has announced the dissolution of the much-talked about Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) today.
All the officers serving in the unit are to be redeployed with immediate effect, according to a terse statement from the Force.
This step follows nation-wide protests calling for the disbandment of the police unit.
Read full press release below:
In the finest spirit of democratic, citizen-centred and community policing, the Inspector-General of Police, IGP M.A Adamu, NPM, mni has today, 11th October, 2020, dissolved the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) across the 36 State Police Commands and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) where they hitherto existed.
The IGP, while noting that the dissolution of SARS is in response to the yearnings of the Nigerian people, observes that by this dissolution, all officers and men of the now defunct Special Anti-robbery Squad are being redeployed with immediate effect.
The IGP notes that the Force is not oblivious of the ever present need to combat armed robbery, kidnapping and other violent crimes in the country which was before now the core mandate of the erstwhile Squad. He assures that a new policing arrangement to address anticipated policing gaps the dissolution of SARS would cause has been evolved and shall be announced in due course.
Meanwhile, as part of measures to prevent a re-occurrence of events that gave rise to the dissolution of SARS, a Citizens’ and Strategic Stakeholders’ Forum is being formed to regularly interface with Police leadership at all levels and advise on police activities as they affect the general public.
In addition, the Force is constituting an Investigation Team which shall include Civil Society Organizations and Human Rights Bodies to work with the Police in investigating alleged cases of human rights violations. The measure, the IGP believes, will enhance transparency and accountability in police services as well as providing a system of deterrence for erring police officers whose action clearly violates the rights of the citizenry.
The IGP appreciates and commends all citizens particularly those who genuinely express their concerns for a better policing orientation in an organized, patriotic and civil manner. He reaffirms the determination of the Force to bequeath to the country a Police Force and System that is professional in service delivery and most importantly, accountable to the people.

Before the Commodores started having major adult contemporary hits like "Three Times a Lady," "Easy," and "Still," they were happy to be a full-time funk/soul band. The Southerners became increasingly pop-minded in the late '70s, but when their debut album, Machine Gun, came out in 1974, their music was unapologetically gritty. This was, without question, a very promising debut — Lionel Richie and his allies really hit the ground running on sweaty funk items like "Young Girls Are My Weakness," "The Bump," "Gonna Blow Your Mind," and the single "I Feel Sanctified." These songs aren't funk-pop or sophisticated funk — they're hardcore funk. What you won't find on Machine Gun are a lot of sentimental love ballads. In the late '70s, the Commodores became as famous for their ballads as they were for their funk and dance material, but believe it or not, there are no ballads to be found on this consistently funky, mostly up-tempo debut. As much as this LP has going for it, Machine Gun isn't the Commodores' best or most essential album. Machine Gun is rewarding, but their subsequent albums Caught in the Act (1975), Movin' On (1975), and Hot on the Tracks (1976) are even stronger.

Since the start of the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic, Democrats have been quick to call for state election officials to move the November election to entirely voting by mail. Republicans have repeatedly questioned the decision, citing a lack of tested policies and procedures, like if a person's ballot is counted only once, even if they vote in-person and again by mail. But now an even bigger issue has arisen: the validity of online voter portals.
Both Oregon and Washington State hold all of their elections by mail, meaning everyone who is registered to vote automatically received a ballot in the mail. In theory, they should have tested methods for making sure election integrity is taking place, whether it be from the ballot request form to how each ballot is counted.
According to a report from The Epoch Times, both states have had issues with election security, particularly with their online voter portal.
In Washington State, a person's name and date of birth – both of which are public record or easily obtainable online – are used to log into the online portal. Once that information is put into the system, a voter's information, including the address their ballots are mailed to and their ballot status, are on display. The portal is also where voters can request a new ballot by printing out a request form that they mail back. Election officials say the form's signature is compared to the signature they have on file, which is how they weed out frauds. The most alarming aspect, however, is that the page issues a warning. “If you continue, a ballot previously mailed to you will be cancelled," meaning a person could fraudulently cancel a real ballot that was previously mailed.
Kylee Zabel, the spokesman for Washington's secretary of state, said in that situation a ballot wouldn't be invalidated or canceled. It'd merely be "put on hold."
“The Office of the Secretary of State and county elections offices, with the collaboration of state and federal partners and private-sector experts, have instituted multiple levels of security over the entire vote-by-mail process, including both electronic and manual measures to maintain the integrity of the election,” Zabel told The Epoch Times. “The online portal is monitored 24/7 to detect and prevent unusual activity, and manual backend processes protect against fraudulent attempts.”
Oregon's online portal is semi-similar, with a name and date of birth being the only requirement to login. An Oregonian can print out a ballot from the portal, fill it out and mail it back in. The link is supposed to be used only for those who are in the military, overseas, or are disable. There's nothing, however, preventing anyone from using that link.
Oregon secretary of state spokesperson Andrea Chiapella said voters can fill their ballot out online but they still must print and mail it, meaning no one is voting online.
“They still must return the ballot with the proper identifying information, including their signature, which will be compared against the voter’s signature in the voter registration file before being accepted to count,” Chiapella told The Epoch Times.
Although Oregon and Washington State have conducted voting by mail for years, a handful of states, including Nevada and California, have moved to automatically mailing out ballots for the November election. It's unknown whether or not those states will permanently move to voting by mail.

Dionne Warwick on World Cafe
Thursday, March 23 at 6pm
On the next World Cafe, host Raina Douris sits down with the incomparable Dionne Warwick to take a look back at her nearly seven decades in show business. From her first standing ovation at just six years old, to sitting down with Snoop Dogg to discuss rap music, there is little that Warwick hasn’t accomplished. More recently, she’s recorded a new gospel song with Dolly Parton and is becoming one of Twitter’s most entertaining accounts.


PURCELL, Okla. – An Oklahoma man said he was beaten black and blue by a Purcell police officer.
Chris Barger said he was dropping off a friend at an apartment complex when a police officer pulled over and shone a spotlight through his window.
Police said Barger got out with his hand in his pocket, and that’s when the scuffle began.
It’s not an easy night for Barger to talk about.
“I just started screaming for someone to help me, and he began hitting me even harder and faster,” Barger said.
Barger suffered a broken nose and severe bruising after the incident Monday night.
It began when he was sitting in his car at 7th and Taylor.
“He begins to shine his light in my car window repeatedly and, after a while, I decided maybe I should get out of the vehicle and ask the officer what the problem is,” Barger said.
A police report showed the officer pointed his gun at Barger, and Barger put his hands up. Then, Barger said, the officer put his gun back and put him in a headlock.
Barger tried to pull away.
“By the time he threw me on the ground and hit me a couple times with his elbow, at that point, I was like this isn’t a police officer, this is just some guy here to kill me,” Barger said.
Another officer got there and arrested Barger for assault and battery on an officer.
The police report showed Barger knocked off the officer’s glasses.
“I was flinching every time one walked by me ever since in the police station,” Barger said.
Barger spent the night in jail for the first time in his life, where he said the other inmates showed him compassion.
“They brought me chairs and helped me sit down. They were better than the police were to me,” Barger said. “It’s not the way it’s supposed to be. The police are supposed to be the good guys.”
Wednesday, the police chief said he had not talked to the officer involved but, from what he understands, the officer didn’t do anything wrong.
He did say an internal investigation is not out of the question.
Barger is due in court Friday and does not have a criminal record.

Kimmy: If you are like me, and have turmeric powder sitting in your cupboard and no idea what to do with it – here is a great snack you’ll love. Here are just a couple of reasons why Turmeric is so good for you.
Three Benefits of Turmeric:
- Detoxification – Turmeric supports liver detoxifcation.
- Anti-inflammatory – Turmeric contains curcumin (which gives it the yellow colour). The curcumin within turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory that can help reduce inflammation in the body.
- Antioxidant – Curcumin neutralizes free radicals on its own, then stimulates the body’s own antioxidant enzymes.
- 1 + 1/3 cup mixed nuts
- 1 Tsp. Turmeric Mix
- 2 Tbs. 180 Nutrition Superfood Protein
- 1/2 Cup Apricots
- 1/2 Cup Dried Paw Paw
- 2 Tbs Coconut Oil
- Dash of Vanilla Extract
- Add the dry ingredients, the nuts, protein powder and Turmeric powder to a high speed blender and blend till loosely combined for around 10 seconds.
- Add the wet ingredients including the apricots, paw paw, coconut oil and vanilla to the blender and blend until combined. Add a little more water if you need.
- Using a dessert spoon, roll into small bowls and then place on a tray in the fridge to cool.
- Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

SEBUYAU: Sebangan’s Darul Aman Mosque, which lost part of its roof due to strong wind on Tuesday, will receive immediate repairs.
Assistant Minister of Rural Development Minister Julaihi Narawi gave the assurance yesterday when he visited the mosque at Kampung Sampat, Sebangan to assess the damage.
Besides the roof, the mosque’s dome was also sent crashing to the ground.
“I am seeking an emergency fund from the State Development Office (SDO) and I have spoken to the director.
“I see this as urgent and I hope that the repair work can be done in two or three days,” said Julaihi, who is Sebuyau assemblyman.
He also directed Sebuyau sub-district Sarawak administrative officer (SAO) Abdul Rahman Brahim and mosque chairman Yaman Madian to begin immediate repairs.
Julaihi said as a result of the damaged roof, the mosque’s interior and carpet also suffered water damage.
The strong wind, which villagers said occurred around 4.30pm, also affected the roofs of houses in Kampung Sampat (26 houses), Kampung Arus Melayu (three houses) and Kampung Arus Iban (eight houses).
Officers from the Welfare Department were also present yesterday.
“The Welfare Department will go to the affected houses to assess the damage to enable assistance to be rendered,” said Julaihi.

San Antonio Spurs rookie Lonnie Walker IV injures meniscus
By Dylan Carter

While this is certainly not ideal, Walker’s injury shouldn’t have any immediate impact on the active roster headed into the season. The product of Miami has impressed with his raw ability and athleticism through Summer League and limited preseason action, but already wasn’t likely to earn significant playing time this season.
This isn’t his first time dealing with this injury. In July of 2017, Walker suffered the same injury in his right knee during practice in Miami. In case you were wondering how he responded to that injury, Walker said the following in a tweet:
“I promise this will not slow me down. Minor setback for a major comeback
As concerning as it may be for a rookie to deal with the same knee injury twice in a row, San Antonio was aware of the gamble they took when drafting Walker with the No. 18 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.
Now under the guidance of San Antonio’s elite training staff, Walker will rehabilitate and return at a cautious pace. There’s very little need to establish his role this early in the offseason and shouldn’t displace the organization’s timeline for Walker’s development. He was bound for an extended stay in the G League this season regardless of his injury.
Head coach Gregg Popovich has an extended supply of talented young players that have worked their way up in the rotation by spending time in Austin. As disconcerting as this may come off at first, it shouldn’t cause too much dismay for Spurs fans.
For now, the Spurs will sift focus toward getting their piece in place to begin the NBA season in 11 days. They’ll open the season against Minnesota on Oct. 17 in the Alamo City.
Walker’s absence isn’t ideal, but it fits the normal development timeline of a young Spur and shouldn’t cause any major disruptions over the next two months. We’ve come to find how tough and determined Walker truly is, he shouldn’t have a problem getting himself back to playing form in no time.

This abstract game consists of 108 wooden blocks with six different shapes in six different colors. There is no board, players simply use an available flat surface. Players begin the game with 6 blocks. The start player places blocks of a single matching attribute (color or shape but not both) on the table.
Thereafter, a player adds blocks adjacent to at least one previously played block. The blocks must all be played in a line and match, without duplicates, either the color or shape of the previous block. Players score one point for each block played plus all blocks adjacent.
It is possible for a block to score in more than one direction. If a player completes a line containing all 6 shapes or colors, an additional 6 points are scored. The player then refills his hand to 6 blocks. The game ends when the draw bag is depleted and one player plays all of his remaining blocks, earning a 6 point bonus. The player with the high score wins.
"Qwirkle does everything that a good abstract game should and it even has the chops to entertain someone like me who doesn’t usually go for this sort of thing." - BGG user Neil Thompson
"It is an attractive, well-made game that both the normal gamer and the enthusiast can enjoy, and there is nothing at all wrong with that." - BGG user Jeromie Rand
"It’s easy mechanics and rules make it something that you can play at any time and doesn’t really require any extra brain power, but isn’t insultingly simple." - BGG user Dan Zuccarelli

Tata Motors has outlined an ambitious goal to increase its market share for electric vehicles. Jaguar Land Rover, a division of Tata Motors, will invest 15 billion pounds in the EV market over the next five years. Including the electric Range Rover later this year and a mid-sized all-electric SUV in the Range Rover series in 2025, JLR plans to introduce three electric cars over the following two years. Tata Motors is optimistic about the future of JLR's profitability and balance sheet. According to JLR's projection, the EBIT margin should be in the double digits by the 2026 fiscal year. The business intends to do the same through drastic expense savings and an improved product mix. Let's now have a brief look at what the future looks like for the homegrown automaker.

Increasing the Production Capacity
Tata Motors expects to ship 8000–10,000 electric vehicles by the end of the next fiscal year, up from the current monthly average of 400–5000 units. After previously achieving an annualised pace of 55,000 to 60,000 units per year with the Nexon and the Tigor EVs, it appears that Tata Motors plans to reach a pace of 1 lakh units by FY24 with the addition of the Tiago EV. According to sources, Tata Motors plans to build 1 lakh electric vehicles over the next 12 to 18 months, giving the business a penetration rate of above 15%. This includes the Punch EV scheduled for 2023 as well as the recently unveiled Tiago EV. If sales momentum is maintained, the expected income range for the EV sector is between Rs 12,000 and Rs 15,000 crore, which is almost equal to what the conventional car industry made just three years ago.

The Upcoming Launches
Tata Motors has an 87% market dominance in the domestic electric PV industry, which saw sales of 21,972 units in the first half of the current fiscal year. As large product entries from companies like Mahindra & Mahindra and Hyundai are expected to begin in the electric PV market as early as 2024, maintaining such a strong position may not be viable for very long. Maruti Suzuki, the leader in the PV sector, plans to start competing in pure EVs in 2025. A Maruti Suzuki EV should be among the most inexpensive, if not the most affordable, given its emphasis on playing the volume game.
Tata Motors expects to roll out a new EV at least every two years beginning in 2025, when the production version of the Avinya concept will be introduced, as part of its goal to maintain and expand its market share. The manufacturer intends to use the Avinya to penetrate developed EV markets, such as those in Europe. The Tata Curvv SUV will make its debut in 2024 before the Avinya. The 'Gen 2' platform concept used by Tata provides alternatives for both electric and traditional internal combustion engines.
Tata Motors' decision to primarily develop BEV technology so far appears to be paying off. Tata Passenger Electric Mobility saw sales increase by more than 4X during the first half of the current fiscal year, reaching 20,805 units, from 4,419 units during the same period in 2021. The growth curve is expected to become even steeper with the most recent arrival of the Tiago EV, the cheapest electric offering.

After more than six months of waiting, the day of the premiere of the latest Batman installment finally arrived. Fans of the Dark Knight had been patiently waiting for the chance to see Robert Pattinson in his role as the Caped Crusader, and in a way, they were not disappointed. While the movie did not live up to the expectations of ardent Batman followers, it still offered some excellent moments.
Let’s take a look at what happened on that spectacular night, starting from the very beginning. The movie begins with a very familiar scene: a big party happening at the Gotham Plaza. We see Batman arriving in a black cape and cowl, and the crowd goes wild. He then proceeds to tell them that he is not the real Batman, but someone dressed up in his clothes. As you may have guessed, this is a rather obvious set-up to make the audience laugh. And it works like a charm. Even those who have not read any comics probably know the story behind this particular bit of comedy. This is also one of the rare occasions where an action movie will actually make you laugh out loud. It also sets the tone for the rest of the movie, which is mostly built around gags and one-liners. There is also a running joke where everyone keeps asking Batman if he is going to save them. This happens a few times throughout the film, and each time, the look on Batman’s face is priceless. He clearly does not want to save any of these people, but he does not have any other option. He is a man of his word, as usual.
An Exciting Opening Scene
It was almost time for the premiere, and the audience was about to enter the theater. As usual, the fans were going crazy. They had been waiting months for this day, and now that it had arrived, they were determined to make the most of it. To start things off right, the movie opens with a bang: a big fight scene between Batman and the Joker (who is, again, making a cameo). The Joker attempts to destroy Gotham City by blowing up various locations and killing many people. In return, Batman puts on a massive fight, which eventually leads to both of them falling off the roof of a building. This is one of the most exciting scenes in the entire movie. It’s not just that the Joker is one of the most famous villains in the universe and has been a major part of the Batman mythos for over seventy years. It’s also that it is the first time we have seen these two great characters interact on-screen in such a passionate and exciting way. We have all seen their fights before, but this one will definitely leave an impression. And it’s not just about the action packed action scene, either. The banter between the two characters is superb, and it adds even more weight to their fight. This is one of the most memorable showdowns in cinematic history.
A Great Joker Appearance
The Joker is one of the most recognizable villains in history, and it’s not hard to see why. He had an amazing ability to shock and to amaze audiences with his many crazy and creative looks. It’s almost as if the more times you see him, the more he will surprise you. In a way, this is reminiscent of the early days of Batman, when the Joker would regularly change his appearance to trick the police. His makeup for the premiere was no exception: it was an incredibly striking depiction of the Clown Prince of Crime. The prosthetics alone are worth a thousand words. They allowed the artists to completely transform his appearance and portray a younger, more jovial Joker.
The Joker is one of the most influential villains in history. His crimes are often attributed to his insanity, but what is often overlooked is his remarkable fashion sense. He was known for adapting his looks to that of the times, and this was often used to great effect. The Joker’s look in this movie will especially surprise and delight fans of the character. It is a very striking fashion choice, and it will no doubt prove to be one of the highlights of his stellar cinematic résumé.
The rest of the movie is more of the same. We have a ton of great comedy, with the standout being the scene where Alfred falls off the horse. This scene will be recreated at the end of the movie, and it will make you howl with laughter. There are also some genuinely exciting fight scenes, mostly between the Joker and Batman, but there is also one with the Dark Knight facing off against several of the Joker’s henchmen. And then there is that other scene…
…where Batman faces off against a giant rat.
This is a rather obscure scene, and perhaps this is why it stands out so much. A giant rat walks into a bar and asks for a drink. The bartender gives him one, and he then proceeds to chow down on some fries. The next thing we know, the rat has gotten large, and he is eating the entire restaurant. He then walks outside and proceeds to wreak havoc by tearing down buildings and killing people. As we mentioned before, none of this will be particularly new to those who have seen the previous movies. It is a very surreal and nightmarish sequence, although admittedly, rats do appear in the Batman mythos from time to time. This was actually one of the more realistic scenes in the movie. It doesn’t hurt that the special effects team did an amazing job with this creature either. This is one of those scenes that stand out because it is different from what we expect from the franchise, but it also works within the context of the story, which is what is important.
A Good Solid Performance By The Cast
The rest of the cast also gave solid performances, particularly Robert Pattinson. He took on the role of Batman relatively late in life, so it was a big step for him to tackle such a large and iconic role. He really had to grow into the part, and it shows in the results. Most notably, he conveys a great deal of humor and charm in the film, qualities that are often associated with the Dark Knight. It is not just that he is playing Batman either. Pattinson actually portrays a younger Bruce Wayne/Batman, which is very impressive for someone who has not even acted before. He also makes the character his own, and it shows in the results. It is a mark of great acting when you make the part your own and personalize it. This is something that many greats before him have done, and it certainly does not hurt that his performance is one of the highlights of the movie.
A Disappointing Sequel To A Great Saga
This is not to say that the Batman franchise is not going to continue. There are already rumors swirling that a Suicide Squad movie is in the works, and it will no doubt be amazing. However, after six incredibly successful films, it is fair to say that it is time for a change. People who love superhero movies will not get the same thrill from a sequel. It is often said that superhero movies do not age well, and this is most certainly the case. The general public has gotten used to laughing at superheroes and does not see them the same way anymore. This is why, if there is going to be a sequel, it will most likely be a completely different story.
If you are a diehard fan of the Batman franchise and have been waiting years to see Jason Todd, the Joker’s former protegé, become the new Batman, then 2019 is going to be painful. It’s almost as if somebody told Warner Bros. that people actually like seeing superheroes these days and that they should make something different.
So, what happens next? Let’s take a look at the reviews.

By Lassiter Strome. Kitchen Cabinets. At Monday, July 01st 2019, 04:58:05 AM.
Considering that not all the spaces should be vivid and bright, you have perfect options for formal cabinets.
Wood Veneer Cabinets:If your cabinets have a wood veneer—essentially a very thin layer of real hardwood over a pressed material—you will also need to sand before painting your kitchen cabinets. But before you break out the sandpaper or paint, carefully inspect the veneer for loose edges, chips, or cracks. Repair these first with wood glue before sanding the veneered surface.
When we talk about kitchen the basic definition is the same: the place where you cook from sandwiches to the most complicated dishes, and often you also eat the meals that you prepare.You do not need to be a master chef for having an amazing kitchen design especially when this is white. White kitchen cabinets help you even when the space is very small because the color makes it seem bigger and if you are not an experimenter of culinary arts you don’t have to worry because of the grease spots and other disasters that could happen only in the kitchen.
A range of kitchens can be used for a cottage style, with a wooden decorative hood, as well as a large ceramic pot or an apron on the front of a farm.
Knobs are the main hardware for the construction of kitchens in the style of a cottage. Porcelain and printed print, half-glossy blues, creams and whites function well, are the design features. Check also for tissues with wire or bamboo.Cottage-style design can be used with paint. The wood floor can be boldly painted. Walls may be painted in hot yellows or blues to match kitchen cabinets ' colors and tones, wall tiles, fencing treatments and other kitchen highlights.

UPPER EAST SIDE — Prime Butcher and Baker on the Upper East Side stocks many classic European-Jewish treats including pastrami, kugel and rugelach. Nestled alongside these traditional favorites are dishes with less familiar names such as matbucha, lahmabajin and stuffed yebra: all staples of Syrian cuisine.
The shop’s mix of familiar and exotic offerings reflect a larger change in the Upper East Side Jewish community.
While the overall Jewish population of the neighborhood has declined in the past decade – from about 65,000 people in 2002 to about 57, 000 in 2011 — a small but thriving Syrian Jewish community has sprung up in the area.
The growth has been spurred in large part by the establishment of a Syrian synagogue, the Edmond J. Safra Congregation, in 2003. With the opening of the 65,000 square-foot Safra Community Center slated for later this year, the uptown Syrian community seems poised to expand.
“The Upper East Side had become an alternative to the suburbs,” said Rabbi Elie Abadie, head of the Safra synagogue. “People can move here without sacrificing any of the community involvement or spiritual involvement because we have institutions now that were not here before.”
Abadie has noticed tremendous growth in the community during the past decade. When the synagogue hosted its first service early in 2003, just 35 people attended. A little more than ten years later, Abadie estimates that 350 people regularly attend services at the East 63rd Street location. The synagogue’s membership has grown to include 1500 families.
There are about 12,000 Syrian Jewish households in the New York metro area according to a 2011 demographic study by the UJA-Federation of New York. Half of them are located in Brooklyn, especially in the Syrian strongholds of Flatbush and Bensonhurst. For the first time, the study also noted the presence of a cluster of Syrian Jews on the Upper East Side, but it did not provide any numbers on the community.
Young couples and families account for much of the growth, according to both Abadie and the UJA-Federation. They are drawn to Manhattan for the same reasons as many other young New Yorkers: financial opportunities and a cosmopolitan lifestyle.
“The new generation wants to be a part of American life,” Abadie said. “They want to be proud, engaged Jews who are also a part of the city and a part of the modern dialogue.”
David Mallach, director of the UJA-Federation's Commission on Jewish People, said that economic changes within the larger Syrian community may also play a role in this geographic shift.
“The old family business model, particularly in textiles, has declined,” Mallach said. “The younger generation has gone more into finance and business. It’s becoming a more economically diverse community and Manhattan is attractive to them.”
Joey Allaham, a member of the Safra synagogue, moved to Manhattan nine years ago with his young family. Allaham, 38, owns several high-end Kosher restaurants in Manhattan and said that the Upper East Side has many advantages over his former Brooklyn home.
“You wake up in the morning and you have the greatest city in the world at your feet,” he said. “You go five minutes and you have Central Park, the theater, great restaurants.”
His move has also been good for business. A few years ago, the restaurateur noticed something missing in his neighborhood.
“I told my wife, I have to do a Sephardic food shop here so that we don’t have to run back to Brooklyn all of the time,” he said.
That idea turned into Prime Butcher and Baker. Business, Allaham said, has been very good.
The growth of services that cater to the community, like Allahams’ shop, has in turn brought more Syrians to the Upper East Side.
In 2006, Rabbi Abadie realized that many members of his growing congregation were moving back to Brooklyn once their children reached school age. He proposed building a school to make it possible for families to stay in the neighborhood.
Five years later, the Sephardic Academy of Manhattan opened with an early childhood education program. The plan is to eventually grow the school to provide pre-K through 12th grade services.
The Upper East Side Syrian community will also see its most ambitious initiative yet brought to fruition later this year. The Safra Community Center at East 82nd Street and Lexington Avenue will boast a swimming pool and fitness center, a two-level banquet hall and a kosher café. The building will also house a Sephardic synagogue to cater to all Jewish people who live on the northern edges of the Upper East Side.
The hope is that having access to such amenities will allow people in the community to put down Manhattan roots.
Rabbi Sion Setton heads the Sephardic Congregation Magen David in the West Village. Until recently, he served as the youth coordinator at Safra and said that the Syrian communities on the Upper East Side and in other parts of Manhattan have become less transient.
“It started as temporary, but now people seem to be here to stay,” Setton said. “There’s a growing Sephardic and Syrian presence in the city and people are moving here to be a part of that.”
The pull of Brooklyn can remain strong, however, even for those who love their new neighborhood.
Leron Elkharrat moved to the Upper East Side three years ago shortly after she got married and has built a strong circle of friends there.
“Many of us are newlywed couples that like to stay in for Shabbat some weekends,” Elkharrat said. “Living just a few blocks away from each other, we have Shabbat meals together and holidays together. It’s great.”
But Elkharrat is not sure what the future will hold.
“I would love to stay on the Upper East Side forever, but I don't know what we will end up doing. Raising a family and buying or renting a bigger apartment in the city is significantly more expensive than it is in Brooklyn, ” she said. “But you never know!”

This is one in a periodic series of articles looking at second cities – places to base a campaign in published settings other than such signature cities as Waterdeep, Greyhawk or Sharn.
City: Hardby (5,100)
Published setting: Greyhawk (Wizards of the Coast/TSR)
Why it’s a good choice:
Clearly, the City of Greyhawk is the heart of the Flanaess, which means many of the great adventuring sites are near to the Free City. Setting a campaign in Hardby puts the players in the same proximity to those classic locales – Star Cairn, Maure Castle, even Castle Greyhawk – as well as the classic Ghost Tower of the Inverness.Â Unlike Greyhawk, which sits on the Selitan River, Hardby is the gateway to Woolly Bay, which opens up a host of other opportunities – either seagoing (pirate) adventures or exploration of any cities and sites along the coast. And of course, archmage Rary the Traitor is out there somewhere in the Bright Desert – someone will have to deal with him sooner or later.
Mind your Ps and Qs
If your players are in need of a Miss Manners lesson in how to behave with civility toward women, or if you have an all-female adventuring party that’s tired of serving a series of tyrannical kings, then Hardby is uniquely suited. The city is ruled by women, the Gynarchy. Though in the wider scheme the Despotrix must bow her head to her masters in Greyhawk, within the cityÂ she still holds considerable power. Players who prefer the intrigue of politics as a backdrop should enjoy the rivalries and shifting alliances within the Gynarchy – which I think is very much akin to the scheming one finds among the White Tower of the Aes Sedai of the Wheel of Time series of books.
One place you must visit
I’d suggest taking a pass on the Great Cranes (which is on every map) and have the players hit the outskirts and visit, instead, Minaryn Castle, home to the Throne Knight Messalina, a wizard and adviser to the despotrix. If she can’t get the players in trouble, er, directed toward adventure, no one can.
I’m partial to the map of Hardby that came in Domain of Greyhawk map pack as part of the accessory The Adventure Begins (ISBN 0-7869-1249-9, Wizards of the Coast, 1998), because it’s mostly blank, allowing the DM to fill it out themselves. The city’s leading persons and many intrigues were detailed in Dungeon 109/Polyhedron 168 in Paul Looby’s article “Hardby: City of the Scorned.”
