The holiday celebration has begun at Margaritaville at Lanier Islands.
With the advent of Lakeside Lights Spectacular illuminating the lakeside playground, visitors will experience a sparkling shoreside light extravaganza, family activities, holiday eats and a few tried-and-true favorites, including Santa.
“Guests will be dazzled by the new light spectacular from the time they enter through the tunnel at License to Chill Snow Island,” said Bucky Perry, vice president of Islands Entertainment at Margaritaville. “The road to Snow Island will lead them to a winter wonderland at License to Chill Snow Island. Anticipation will build as the park takes on a new look along the main road lined with traditional hometown decorations. And it’s truly a holiday celebration once they arrive at Margaritaville.”
The trip to Snow Island showcases Lanier Island’s towering 3-story Christmas tree at the Clock Tower, plus holiday surprises, including swans, at the signature waterfall.
“Of course we’ve honored the icons of Christmas at Lanier Islands, by including the traditional lighted and animated carousel near the front gate,” he said. “It has long been a family favorite.”
The destination’s interactive walk-through light show is just the start of the festivities. Snow Island’s Blizzard Mountain features eight stories and multiple lanes of fun down one of Georgia’s longest and highest snow-tube experiences. At 575 feet long it’s the centerpiece of the seasonal wonderland.
“This year’s License to Chill Snow Island is even better than before,” Perry said. “Guests will be able to enjoy the new light show at their own pace as they stroll along the shorelines between the tunnel to Rudolph’s Landing, also known as LandShark Landing, where they will find even more holiday cheer, bright lights and plenty of holiday food and beverages along the way.”
The event also includes a carnival of amusement rides, ice skating, a snow play area, plus fire pits and s’mores. Santa will be in his workshop near the slow play area.
License to Chill Snow Island and the Lakeside Light Spectacular will be open daily through January 5, then weekends through February 21.

Fats have gotten a bad rap over the past couple of decades. Marketing pushes the idea that all fat is bad for us or that “fat will make us fat”. This is a myth! This low-fat fad (with no backed research) started in the 1960s and became even more popular by the 1980s when it was promoted by doctors, the federal government, the food industry, and the popular health media. Even though this fad was shown to be more harmful than beneficial, people’s fear of fat has stuck around, even to this day.
We are here to tell you that all fat isn’t bad! Certain fats are actually vital to your body’s health. Here’s what you need to know about dietary fats and how you can use this information to help optimize your health.
What Are Dietary Fats?
Dietary fats are made up of long chains of fatty acids. The particular type of fatty acids that make up the fat determines its characteristics and nutritional status. They are usually grouped into three main categories monounsaturated, saturated, or polyunsaturated. Foods have a varying percentage of all these types, as well as some even having trans fats. Trans fats can be man-made or occur naturally in food.
You can get dietary fats from plant sources or animal sources. Fats from animal sources tend to be solid at room temperature and are generally saturated fats. These include butter or lard. Plant sources like olive oil and sesame oil are made up of unsaturated or polyunsaturated fats and are liquid at room temperature.
Why Do We Need Fats?
Dietary fats support several processes in the body. Without them, vital bodily processes cannot proceed, or they don’t work optimally.
The right fats are essential for:
- supporting your immune function
- the creation of cholesterol- which is important for hormone production and so much more
- inflammation and healing
- maintaining healthy skin and hair
- helping the absorption of the fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K,
- plus fats make foods taste better
Fats are also the solid structural foundation to our cells! Our cell’s double membrane is made up of long-tail fatty acids. Our membrane plays a role in determining what’s allowed to come in and out of the cell. We must consume enough fats to keep our cell’s membrane healthy and strong.
Here are some other benefits of healthy fats:
- Fats are needed to absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K
- They store energy
- Fats slow the absorption of carbohydrates, helping regulate blood sugar levels
- Help with cell signaling (aka communication)
- Fat helps maintain body temperature
- ARA and DHA can enhance brain and mental health
Which Types Of Fats Should You Consume?
If you’re thinking, “Well in2GREAT said fat was healthy so I’m doing my body a favor by eating this ice cream…” Not so fast. We want to emphasize the point that not all fats are created equal. It’s all about the quality of fats and oils that you consume. Some fats benefit processes within your body, while other types of fat interfere with them. Here’s a rundown on the types of fats.
Long-chain saturated fats are found mostly in milk and meat of grazing animals like sheep and cattle. These are the types that help create the structural component of your cells (70-80%). This type also is the main storage form of energy. When you cook these in high-heat, they aren’t prone to oxidative damage.
Medium-chain saturated fats are a great source of digestible energy. These don’t need bile acids for digestion. Check out our blog on “What Really Goes on During Digestion”. Coconut oil is an example of medium-chain saturated fats. What’s awesome about these types of fats is that they may have antimicrobial properties as well.
Monounsaturated fats are also a huge component of the cell wall. These types can be found in avocados, olives, certain nuts, and some meats. These kinds of fats may reduce LDL and triglycerides and increase HDL, reduce inflammation, and lower blood pressure. However, studies show that monounsaturated fats from plant sources are best at lowering rates of heart disease rather than from animal sources. However, these fats are more susceptible to oxidation when used for cooking at high temperatures. Monounsaturated fats are safe for low temperature cooking and should be stored in dark containers to avoid going rancid.
Polyunsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature all the time. These fats play a role in gene regulation, body functions, and make up part of the cell membrane. Polyunsaturates are very unstable and highly reactive to light heat and oxygen so they should never be used for cooking. Instead these oils are better eaten raw and used as a finishing oil. Store them in a cool, dark place. There are two “sub-classes” of polyunsaturated fats worth mentioning. Omega 3s and Omega 6s which are essential to the body.
Omega-3 or Omega-6?
You want a good balance between both of these. A good ratio is between 1:1 and 1:4 omega 3: omega 6. It is critical to get this ratio in balance to help your body manage inflammation. Today, many Americans eat a ratio closer to 1:25. Too much omega 6 has been shown to deplete vitamin E levels, cause gut microbiome imbalances, increase inflammation, make you more susceptible to weight gain and metabolic diseases, and increase the risk of autoimmune diseases. However, ARA is a longer chain omega-6 that is needed for the growth and repair of skeletal muscle tissue. This is also the most abundant fatty acid in the brain.
Omega-3 fats, specifically the EPA and DHA within omega-3s, are what’s beneficial to our health. DHA and EPA are found in salmon, herring sardines, mackerel, and anchovies. Not having enough omega-3’s can contribute to diseases caused by inflammation. DHA is needed for proper development of the brain as well.
ALA omega-3 fats are found in flax seeds and walnuts. While some ALA can be converted to DHA and EPA, it’s a very small percentage. This conversion also requires other nutrients like vitamin B6, zinc, and iron. So be aware if you are eating only plant-based fat sources because you may not be getting all your DHA and EPA (beneficial components of Omega-3).
It’s important that you have a good balance of both omega-3s and omega-6s for healthy functioning.
Trans fats can affect your cholesterol levels and increase your risk for degenerative diseases like heart disease and cancer. Good fats are generally derived from unprocessed food sources, whereas trans fats are usually found in junk food and have no benefit to the body, they actually just cause harm.
Eat Good Fats, Don’t Restrict Them!
Our body needs fats for important functions. Without them, our body can’t function at its maximum efficiency. This is a lot of information to take in! So here’s a simple take away. The key to fats is to eat a variety of different fats to get all the benefits.
When cooking food in high heat, use avocado oil, coconut oil, and macadamia oil. When using low heat, you can use extra-virgin olive oil and extra-virgin coconut oil.
Cosume these fats the most:
- Avocados and avocado oil
- Coconut oil
- Duck fat
- Olive oil
- Ghee (from Grass-fed cows)
- Butter (from Grass-fed cows)
- Macadamia oil
- Organ Meat and red meat from Grass-fed animals)
- Seafood (Wild-caught)
*make sure the animal fats you consume are from high quality, organic, pasture-raised or wild-caught animals.
Eat these fats in moderation:
- Sesame oil
- Avocado oil
- Almond oil
- Flaxseed oil
- Nuts and seeds
- Nut butters
Avoid these fats:
- Soybean oil
- Canola oil
- Peanut oil
- Corn oil
- Sunflower oil
- Safflower oil
- Wheat-germ oil
Even if you are consuming healthy fats, your body may not be digesting and absorbing them entirely due to underlying issues. In2GREAT Functional Medicine Clinic in Kansas City can work with you to see if your body is functioning optimally. Through functional lab testing and analysis, they can create a plan to optimize your absorption and overall health. Please give them a call at (913) 308-0174 to set up an appointment.

The cornea is the clear, outer layer of the eye. A corneal abrasion is simply a scratch in the epithelium (skin), or the thin, outer layer of the cornea. Abrasions usually heal in a short time period, sometimes within hours. Deeper or larger scratches may take up to a week. The cornea has a tremendous number of nerve endings, which makes any damage to the cornea and corneal abrasions very painful.
Corneal Abrasion Symptoms
- History of a recent eye trauma
- Watery eyes
- Acute pain
- Sensitivity to light
- Blurry vision
- The feeling that there’s something in your eye
- Twitching eyelid
Treating Corneal Abrasions
Your doctor may apply topical anesthesia to help relieve the pain. Usually, a tight patch will be placed over the eye and if the abrasion is small, the epithelium should heal overnight. If the abrasion is large, it may take a few days and your doctor may prescribe antibiotics to help prevent infections. It is important that you do not rub your eye, especially during the healing process.
A corneal transplant, or keratoplasty, is a procedure to replace part of a damaged cornea with donor tissue. A cornea transplant can restore vision loss caused by Keratoconus, Fuch’s dystrophy, eye surgery complications, corneal ulcers, scarring, or infection.
The Nielsen Eye Center is proud to offer two advanced corneal transplant procedures, DSAEK and DMEK, to residents of the Greater Boston area, Quincy, Norwood Massachusetts, and the south shore.. DSAEK and DMEK are faster, less invasive, and result in fewer complications than a traditional cornea transplant.
What is a Traditional Cornea Transplant?
The medical term for a traditional corneal transplant, also known as a full thickness cornea transplant, is a penetrating keratoplasty (PKP). The PKP procedure replaces all five layers of the cornea with donor tissue.
The goal of a full cornea transplant is to improve vision that is damaged as a result of corneal disease. However, due to the invasiveness of the procedure and the amount of tissue affected, traditional corneal transplants have longer recovery time and a higher risk of complications compared to newer procedures like DSAEK and DMEK.
What is DSAEK?
DSAEK stands for Descemet’s Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty — it is one of the most advanced procedures for correcting corneal damage.
Traditional corneal transplants can cause discomfort, many sutures, and many visual complications. DSAEK decreases these problems by using donor corneal tissue to replace the two innermost layers of the cornea (endothelium and Descemet’s membrane), leaving the surface of the eye intact.
This changes what was once a very invasive procedure, into a quicker one with fewer complications. Since less tissue is affected, the incidence of corneal rejection is virtually eliminated, and patients often see better and sooner than with the traditional corneal transplant method.
What is DMEK?
DMEK, or Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty, is very similar to DSAEK, with one exception — the donor transplant does not include any tissue from the stroma layer of the cornea. Instead, the transplant is composed entirely of healthy donor cells from the endothelium, the innermost layer of the cornea. This results in a smaller, thinner layer of donor tissue for transplantation.
The biggest advantage of DMEK is that it involves the least amount of change to the patient’s natural cornea, as the size of the transplant is less than 1/5 the thickness of a human hair. DMEK can be more challenging to perform than DSAEK because of the fragility and size of the donor tissue. DMEK is also a newer procedure than DSAEK, so it is not as widely available.
What Happens During DSAEK/DMEK?
Both procedures are performed in an outpatient surgical center where patients will be mildly sedated, and the eyes will be numbed with drops. The doctor makes a small incision through which he or she prepares and removes the innermost layers of the cornea. Through this same small incision, the doctor inserts the donor corneal tissue.
An air bubble is then created to correctly place and maintain the position of the transplant. The patient usually stays laying down for 10-15 minutes to ensure the donor cornea stays in place. Depending on the state of the corneal tissue after the procedure, the small incision will either be closed with a suture or two, or it will be left to heal on its own.
What Happens After DSAEK/DMEK?
The patient goes home after the procedure but is restricted to lying in bed with his/her face towards the ceiling for the rest of the day. Antibiotic and steroid eye drops are prescribed to reduce inflammation. Post-op exams and follow-up visits are scheduled for the first few days after the procedure to monitor healing and ensure there are no complications.
Benefits of DSAEK/DMEK
Compared with a traditional full thickness cornea transplant, DSAEK and DMEK offer these advantages:
- Low risk of corneal implant rejection
- Low risk of long-term reliance on topical steroids
- Visual recovery is much faster
- Minimal restrictions on activities such as exercise or driving
- Minimal change to eyeglasses prescription

Hospital funding linked to insurance rates: NSW Govt
New South Wales Health Minister Reba Meagher has confirmed rates of health insurance are taken into account when deciding funding for public hospital beds.
The NSW Government has consistently denied funding for Sydney's Royal North Shore Hospital has been reduced because it is in an affluent area with high rates of private insurance.
The hospital has come under a barrage of criticism recently after a woman miscarried in the emergency department's toilets after waiting two hours for treatment.
Ms Meagher says health insurance rates are one of the factors considered when allocating services but she denies that has disadvantaged Royal North Shore Hospital.
"North Sydney has not been disadvantaged because it is a tertiary hospital that provides state-wide services," she said.
"Additional funding has been allocated to the hospital so those services can be located at North Sydney."

Community Cats of Palm Coast
LocalFlagler.com online magazine is proud to share the information about Community Cats of Palm Coast. Their website says it best:
"The goal of Community Cats of Palm Coast is to reduce the number of feral cats in our area through Trap, Neuter and Return (TNR), a humane protocol that gets results and saves taxpayers money. With TNR, cats are trapped, spayed or neutered, given a rabies shot, and returned to live out their natural lives. Community Cats of Palm Coast's trapping team has TNR'd more than 500 cats, and our organization has assisted feral caretakers with the Trap, Neuter and Return of hundreds more. TNR has been embraced by municipalities across the country as the best means of reducing the feral cat population. TNR is widely endorsed by national and regional animal welfare groups. Communities that practice TNR see a reduction in shelter intakes and euthanasia...
If you are a feral caretaker, you can prevent new births by sterilizing the cats you feed. But you may not know how to proceed. You may not have traps or feel confident capturing and transporting the cats. With multiple cats involved, it can seem overwhelming. Community Cats of Palm Coast is here to help. We can supply traps and our experienced volunteers can work with you throughout theTNR process.
Community Cats of Palm Coast also operates a barn cat placement program - Mediates feral cat complaints in partnership with the Flagler Humane Society - Conducts community outreach to educate the public about TNR benefits - Assists in the implementation of TNR grants received by our local animal shelter.
Please note: Community Cats of Palm Coast is a TNR organization, NOT a rescue or pet adoption agency. We do not house animals and can not take in cats requiring rehoming."

Monforton Press | Spitfire IX & XVI, Engineered
Reviewed by Randy Bumgardner
Spitfire IX & XVI, Engineered
Author: Paul H. Monforton
With the new release of Pacific Coast Models Spitfire Mk.IXc, and their upcoming release of the Mk.IXe, a new release of Mk.IX specific reference material is a good thing. Well, Monforton Press has done just that. Their latest offering, “Spitfire IX & XVI, Engineered”, covers every inch of these aircraft. The similarities between these two marks makes them a logical choice to group into a single tome.
This book contains 432 pages of which there are 890 full color photographs and 133 pages of dimensioned drawings. It is divided into nine sections (chapters), each covering a specific section of the airframe. The chapters are:
- Wing Fillet
Each chapter contains detailed walkaround-style photographs in full color. The clarity and lighting in each image is superb and the details contained within are nicely obvious. Each photo is captioned with relevant information about the details and additional information about differences between the two marks.
Additionally, each section contains dimensioned detail drawings for each part or subassembly. These drawings were drafted using CAD software referencing original factory drawings where possible. The dimensions are clearly identified and rendered. A table of dimensions clearly corresponds to each measurement, giving dimensions in either inches or millimeters. The number of drawings contained in this book is fantastic. Every subassembly, part, and rivet is quantified and detailed in these pages.
This book is invaluable to the scratchbuilder and Spitfire enthusiast alike. Paul Monforton has gone to great lengths to photograph and render every last bit of this aircraft. His research is quite extensive, as are the engineering drawings and photographs that are included. This book must be one of the best resources available on the Spitfire, specifically the Mk.IX and the Mk.XVI. It is a must have for any serious Spitfire enthusiast.
Available directly from Monforton Press.

From its modest origins, gaming has developed into a vital aspect of the contemporary world. Let’s take a look at its historical development, investigate its origins, and follow its trajectory to understand its cultural significance. This will help us better understand how it has shaped our society and culture.
The History of Video Games
Although gaming has roots in prehistoric cultures like the Greeks and Romans, the medium of the 20th century saw its true emergence. Electronic gaming was made possible by the 1940s invention of the first electronic computer. The first electronic game was created in the 1950s and was a straightforward version of tic tac toe. But the introduction of the first home console, the Magnavox Odyssey, in the 1970s signaled a sea change.
Phase One: Video Games
Arcade games came of age in the 1970s and 1980s, when titles like Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, and Space Invaders captivated crowds. These games became an addictive phenomenon, drawing players to spend hours at arcades competing for high scores despite their basic graphics and sound.
In addition to having a lasting impact on the gaming industry, arcade games have also influenced popular culture. They cemented their position in the collective consciousness by making appearances in television series like Knight Rider and motion pictures like Tron. Music videos such as “Space Invaders” and “Pac-Man Fever” even went on to become hits, demonstrating how ubiquitous gaming is.
Phase Two: Consoles at Home
The Atari 2600, Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), and Sega Master System were the three main home consoles during the 1980s boom. These systems allowed people to play video games in their living rooms, which helped create the foundation for well-known franchises like Sonic the Hedgehog, The Legend of Zelda, and Super Mario Bros.
Phase Three: Computer Games
With the widespread use of personal computers in the 1990s, a new era of sophisticated games with improved graphics and gameplay was born. In addition to pushing the boundaries of gaming, games like Doom, Quake, and Half-Life also introduced online multiplayer, completely changing the game industry. Doom and Quake creator John Romero became a source of inspiration for game developers and gamers alike.
Phase Four: Mobile Gaming
Thanks to the global appeal of games like Candy Crush, Clash of Clans, and Pokemon Go, mobile gaming has become a major force in recent years. In addition to becoming well-known titles, these games have drawn in a new player base to the gaming industry.
The casual gamer is a new breed of player brought forth by the popularity of mobile gaming. Even though they might not consider themselves to be traditional gamers, these people still enjoy playing games on their tablets or smartphones. Mobile gaming has become a seamless part of daily life, with consumers using their devices for five hours a day on average.
The Cultural Importance of Video Games
Beyond being just a hobby, gaming has developed into a way of life with significant cultural effects. It has impacted communication styles, fashion, music, and slang, resulting in the creation of a distinct language.
The potential of gaming to promote connections is among its most significant cultural effects. People all over the world can now connect, create communities, and exchange experiences through online gaming. With millions of viewers worldwide, esports competitions have elevated gaming to the status of a major spectator sport that can compete with more conventional forms of entertainment.
A significant player in the entertainment sector, gaming now brings in profits on par with hit TV series and blockbuster films. In addition to receiving high praise from critics, video games like Grand Theft Auto V and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 have brought in over $1 billion in revenue each. With their enormous audience, esports competitions have strengthened the position of gaming as a cultural phenomenon.
The real effects of gaming, however, go beyond mere amusement. On a global scale, it has stimulated innovation and creativity. Numerous game developers have gone on to become prosperous business owners and launch companies that have completely changed whole sectors. Technology has advanced largely because of gaming, which has spawned inventions like motion-sensing controllers and virtual reality headsets.
In summary, gaming has shaped human interaction with the world and each other for thousands of years, making it an essential part of our culture. From prehistoric societies to contemporary esports competitions, gaming has changed, developed, and taken on a life of its own. As developers, we have the ability to keep expanding the gaming industry’s possibilities and elevate it to even greater prominence in our society. Let’s keep making, experimenting, and playing games!

It’s been years since I last went on holiday with my parents so when they changed their holiday plans to visit Scotland instead of Wales I was pretty excited. I was brought up on summer holidays of camping and caravanning around the UK with favourite spots in Wales and Cornwall. The last time I went on one of these holidays was years ago – I think I must have been 17 and we stayed at St Ives, one of my FAVOURITE spots in Cornwall. Needless to say I was excited to get back to my roots of caravanning, even though my parents had changed caravans and I was completely lost in this new one.
They are part of the Caravan Company and so chose to stay in one of their sites located in Killin, on the edge of Loch Tay. I had given them suggestions of places to stay that were within two hours of Glasgow so I could pop up often. The site was small and basic – no toilets or facilities but it did have electric and best of all it was quiet and peaceful (gosh I sound old). I drove up from Glasgow the day after they arrived to join them for the day and night. Getting to Loch Tay from Glasgow is easy and you can pick from three different routes, I chose to head up the Trossachs ‘side’ of Loch Lomond and it took exactly 1hr 30mins with beautiful views along the way.
I quickly went about planning what we would do with our afternoon and evening. Deciding I wanted to drive around Loch Tay and then along a scenic route listed in Lonely Planet before tucking in to a bbq and finding somewhere to watch the sunset. It seemed like a pretty good plan until I realised how big Loch Tay was and with how much I like to stop for photographs it ended up taking us nearly two hours to drive the whole way around. It didn’t help one side of the Loch has a single track lane. Still the views were beautiful and the sun came out to play as we made our way clockwise around the water.
Next up was the scenic drive, another windy single track lane with a dead end sign, but the book said there was a way through so we drove past the sign, and on and on. Just when we were beginning to wonder if we were lost or had missed this ‘secret road**’ turning we hit the dead end. A farmer had put up private property gates and none of us felt like risking it, especially with bellies rumbling and not really knowing where we were going. Turning back we all felt a bit defeated but that didn’t last long when I spotted some Highland cows. Ever since my first roadtrip around Scotland I’ve been desperate to capture some pictures of these iconic cows. Finally I had my chance, I switched to my zoom lens and started chatting to the cows trying to get their attention. Luckily they played ball and looked straight up at me, unfortunately they were missing their horns but I still think they are the cutest cows you will ever come across.
We arrived back to the caravan in time for my boyfriend and brother to gatecrash our bbq. This was my first bbq of the summer and probably my last given I live in a flat with no garden so I was very much looking forward to it. In typical Scottish fashion the midges were out in full force and within 10 mins of cooking we were all cursing at these silly insects. The bbq was still a hit and as soon as we were finished it was back in the car and off again. Heading for Ben Lawers as the sun was starting to turn golden, we climbed up higher and higher getting gorgeous views of Loch Tay and playing chicken with the sheep until we reached the dam. A drive which I had been recommend by Susanne on twitter. The dam was pretty incredible in the golden sun light and as we drove back down the sky began to turn a beautiful pink colour.
Spending the night away from home in the caravan was a fun change of scenery, waking up beneath the trees as the sun began to stream through was certainly welcomed. I drove back to Glasgow that morning planning out every hour of the next week to be able to escape again.
**Incase you were wondering the road did exist, my parents went back the next day and drove around it in the other direction. Turns out the farmer had no rights to put up those gates and it is a public road – just full of potholes!

Top talent from all over the world, including many US artists
Düsseldorf, Germany (PRWEB) May 13, 2015
Fans of experimental dance music, indie, and electronica have enjoyed the Open Source Festival (OSF) in Düsseldorf for a decade now, and the 10th festival on June 27, 2015, is yet another summer opportunity for all kinds of progressive and experimental expressions in these genres. Most of the program takes place at outdoor stages at a horse track outside of the city, and the vibe is relaxed, hip, and cozy. But make no mistake: Top talent from all over the world, including many US artists, find their way to the OSF, for about 30 bands and performances.
Grammy-nominated US band “Death Cab For Cutie,” one of the most successful indie rock bands today, will fill the summer air from the main stage with their beautiful and reflective sounds and lyrics, perfect for the setting.
Metronomy, a three-boy-one-girl-band from the UK, is a master of electronic pop music, and the group will bring its classy instrumental and vocal pieces to the main stage for extra good dancing and great vibes.
Future Brown, another US group, will perform songs from their debut album, including the single “wanna party,” the motto for their gig and the whole festival.
Kakkmaddafakka from Norway, also scheduled for the main stage, is finally able to join the festival for their first performance here. Known for wacky disco pop rock and improvisational indie circus, they will shake up the crowd with sound and movement.
Laurel Halo, who grew up in Michigan, infuses her classical education and inspiration from home into her particular brand of new electronic music. She will play her rhythmic, bassy soundscapes on the Carhartt Wip Stage.
In total, there will be three stages for the day program: the Mainstage, Carhartt Wip Stage, Young Talent Stage, and “Teehaus” (tea house) -- added last year.
The day program, which takes place on the three stages at the horse track in Grafenberg Forest by Düsseldorf, goes from 1 pm until Midnight. After Midnight, the party moves to the city of Düsseldorf, where the music and dancing continues in several of the city’s clubs until dawn.

Thank you for reading the news about Trezeguet scores, Elmohamady assists as Aston Villa qualify to FA Cup final and now with the details
Mahmoud Trezeguet scored with an assist from Ahmed Elmohamady to send Aston Villa to the FA Cup final as they defeated Leicester City 2-1.
Following a 1-1 away draw in the first leg, both Trezeguet and Elmohamady started on the bench as the Villans faced the Foxes.
Villa got off to a quick start as they broke the deadlock just 12 minutes into the game. Jack Grealish squared the ball to Matt Target, who rifled past Kasper Schmeichel.
It took the Foxes 34 minutes to respond through Youri Tielemans, whose strike hit the woodwork after a touch from Orjan Nyland.
Leicester kept pushing for an equalizer and in the 72nd minute Kelechi Iheanacho leveled things up as he finished Harvey Barnes cross into the back of the net.
Trezeguet came on in the 77th minute to replace Anwar El-Ghazi, meanwhile, Elmohamady replaced Frederic Guilbert in the 84th minute.
In the second minute of injury time, Elmohamady’s cross was met by Trezeguet, who slotted the ball into the bottom corner with a brilliant first time volley to send the Villans to the FA Cup final to face the winner from Manchester United and Manchester City.

Residents in London, Ont., will only need to look to the skies if they hope to catch some world-renowned aerobatics this weekend.
Airshow London takes off Friday night for a weekend full of aerial performances as it returns with another ‘Sky Drive’ event
Airshow London on track to become largest military air show in North America
Stemming from a need to follow COVID-19 health protocols, Sky Drive allows guests to view the air show from the comfort of their vehicles.
“A family gets a double-wide parking spot that they would experience in a shopping mall or any parking lot,” said Airshow London chair Jim Graham.
“They can bring their own chairs, they can bring their own food and beverages, they can set up and have a full tailgate experience.”
This year also marks the new addition of a Friday evening show, which stretches from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., allowing aerobatic fans to enjoy the performances as they fly by the setting sun.

Airshow London will feature more than a dozen performers, including the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, who are returning to the show for the first time in 30 years.
“We also have the Canadian Forces Snowbirds demonstration team — the only time in Canada, this year, that the two teams are flying together,” Graham added.
Tickets have sold out for Saturday and Sunday, but Graham says there are still a few spots left for Friday evening’s performance.
Anyone looking to catch some of this weekend’s aerobatics can head over to Airshow London’s website to purchase a ticket.

Bayern Munich completed the loan signing of Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona on Monday.
The Barcelona Twitter account confirmed the move:
In an accompanying statement, Barcelona said Bayern will pay €8.5 million to loan Coutinho for the season and have the option of making the transfer permanent for €120 million.
Bayern posted the following video welcoming their new signing:
He departs Barca after fewer than two years, having moved to the Camp Nou from Liverpool in January 2018 for a club-record fee of £142 million.
Despite his price tag, the 27-year-old failed to earn a guaranteed first-team spot under Blaugrana manager Ernesto Valverde; 12 of his 34 La Liga appearances in 2018-19 came from the bench.
He was largely underwhelming when he did get a run in the side.
Coutinho was an integral part of Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool team and a huge fan favourite at Anfield.
But he never really settled at the Camp Nou, and his performances against his former side in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals last season were indicative of his declining reputation at Barcelona:
That does not mean he is a spent force, though. At 27, he is in the peak years of his career, and he will be a fine signing for Bayern if he can rediscover the form he had at Liverpool.
After opting against signing James Rodriguez on a permanent deal from Real Madrid this summer after a two-year loan, Bayern have a dearth of natural creativity in their midfield. Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben also left the club at the end of last season, meaning Munich have lost two consistently productive players in wide areas.
Coutinho has been at his best when playing as a No. 10 or on the left flank, where he can cut inside and make contributions in the final third. His vision, dribbling skill and ability to hit the target from distance made him a huge success when on Merseyside.
The Brazilian will be disappointed at the manner in which his Barcelona career has panned out. However, Bayern's interest in him after a tough spell is indicative of the quality Coutinho possesses, and he'll be hopeful a new set of challenges can be a catalyst for a return to form.

Was Mr. Bennet a secret enemy of the Bennet sisters and Mrs. Bennet?
Mr. Bennet is one of the most likable and amusing characters in Pride and Prejudice, so much so that readers tend to forgive his faults as a father. His daughters must marry well or be destitute when he dies, for Mr. Bennet never saves any of his income, which at £2,000 a year is a substantial one. Mrs. Bennet, whatever her faults, is acutely aware of this, and spends her life trying to secure suitable husbands and endowments for her girls. Mr. Bennet does nothing to help them and is inclined to sneer at his wife's efforts.
It is putting the case against Mr. Bennet too strongly to say that he is a "secret enemy" of his wife and daughters. His faults are indolence and selfishness rather than malevolence. Since his wife exasperates him, he enjoys doing the same to her. His main tactic is pretending to be more indifferent to his daughters' marital prospects than he actually is. The novel opens with his apparent refusal to visit Mr. Bingley at Netherfield. Later, he reveals that he has made the visit without telling any of his family. Mr. Bennet is not an enemy of the other Bennets. However, he does the bare minimum of his duty as a father and, with the exception of Elizabeth and occasionally Jane, displays little affection for his family.

People are being warned that fraudsters are pretending to be from MSN Money, offering an insurance service to help with property rentals. This is a scam – do not send any money or personal information.
Fraudsters have created at least one fake email address and a fake website that looks similar to the real MSN Money website. They are using the brand name ‘MSN Money’ as a way to trick people into sending them money. Money MSN insurance or RDP service does not exist.
How the MSN Money scam works
The scam so far has involved rental apartments in Norway, where fraudsters are advertising apartments on popular Norwegian websites such as finn.no. The fraudsters appear to be pretending to be UK soldiers who own apartments in Norway but have been posted to Afghanistan, which is why they are offering the apartment for rental.
The ‘seller’ tells the victim that a company called ‘Money MSN Insurance’ will collect a deposit, and arrange for a contract and keys to be sent.
As the ‘seller’ claims to be a soldier in Afghanistan, they tell the victim they must send a deposit before they can see the apartment.
In reality, the victim will never be offered the opportunity to view the apartment and will never speak to anyone in person or on the telephone and their money will be lost.
Statement from MSN Money:
THE "Money MSN insurance service" AND SIMILAR SYSTEMS DO NOT EXIST. THIS IS NOTHING TO DO WITH MSN MONEY, MICROSOFT OR FINN.NO. IT IS AN ATTEMPT TO DEFRAUD, NOTHING MORE. YOU ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO DELETE THE EMAIL AND NOT TO ENTER INTO ANY COMMUNICATION WITH THE SENDER WHATSOEVER.
DO NOT SEND THEM ANY MONEY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES - YOU WILL NEVER SEE IT AGAIN, NOR THE KEYS TO AN APARTMENT.
Remember, if it looks too good to be true, it almost certainly is.
MSN Money and Microsoft are working to shut the fraudulent operation down. Anyone who has heard from someone offering this kind of scheme is being asked to forward all emails with additional information to [email protected]
Victims of the MSN Money scam
Anyone who has fallen victim to this scam is being urged to report it to Action Fraud.

Just a small suggestion, when a player hits the pause button currently, the message of who pressed it only displays for a moment. If the notification could also be printed into the chat box then it would be easier to track who did it. Would be useful for better communication and for identifying any pause abusers in team games.
Print pause message into chat box
It would also be useful to have this for unpausing, so we could identify unpause abusers in team games
Edit: And while we're thinking of things we might want, it would be nice if the unpause message also stated how long the pause lasted
Absolutely agreed, not usually an issue but no way to counter it afterwards

Guidelines on Data Protection by Design and by Default
Anastasiya Kazakova , Public Affairs Manager
Igor Kumagin , Senior Project Manager
Approaching the end of the year, we couldn’t help but applaud the efforts taken by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) in publishing its Guidelines on Data Protection by Design and by Default (DPbDD), which have been updated after the public consultation with industry and the technical community (you may find the first version here).
We at Kaspersky took part in the consultation and shared some observations to strengthen consistency with Article 25 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), as well as provide greater clarity on practical steps which organizations need to take for implementing the GDPR principles and achieving the DPbDD.
Having shared our comments on January 16, 2020 (and of course having no clue as to what the year 2020 would hold!), we are happy to see significant improvements in the final document as a result of the feedback from industry, non-for-profit associations, and individuals.
Below we provide a summary of how the text has changed.
Data protection by Design and by Default (DPbDD): is it a single concept or two separate concepts?
The 2019 draft of the Guidelines discusses the concept of the DPbDD in two separate sections (2.1. and 2.2.), and we noted that it should remain a single, uniform concept, as per the definition expressed in Article 25 and Recital 78 of the GDPR. In the final document we see the additional comment clarifying that the DPbDD is ‘complementary concepts, which mutually reinforce each other. Data subjects will benefit more from data protection by default if data protection by design is concurrently implemented – and vice versa’.
It is difficult to say whether the EDBP’s explanation and our initial understanding are different: if by-design and by-default elements are complementary by nature, it neither contradicts, nor supports the proposal to keep the DPbDD as a single and uniform concept.
However, we are not sure whether data protection by default can precede to data protection by design. In our view, security is designed first and then it is enhanced to ‘by-default’ mode to grant higher security and assurance. What is more, we note that both ‘design and default elements’ are kept together and not differentiated in section 3 (so it is difficult to say what elements listed under each principle should be considered as ‘default’ or as ‘design’).
Nonetheless, we note that in the final guidelines the EDPB provides its view on the DPbDD, which was missing in the first version.
Practical guidance to implement principles as prescribed by the GDPR
The 2019 draft states that ‘in all stages of design of the processing activities, including tenders, outsourcing, development, support, maintenance, testing, storage, deletion, etc., the controller must take into account and consider the various elements of DPbDD […]’.
Our understanding is that principles and security measures (technical and organizational ones) should be separated in the guidelines for greater structural and methodological consistency. We read Section 3 as the section with practical steps for controllers to implement data protection principles, and in this regard, to us, the inclusion of certain principles – such as the principle of fairness or the principle of transparency – seems counterintuitive: the draft guidelines explain each principle with detailed key design and default elements, but do not give practical instruction to data controllers on implementing the principles, and each element is read here as an improvement order or direction for a desired action, but not as a practical guide.
Therefore, our recommendation was to frame principles as a separate section to convey them as intentions that establish the mind-set for controllers for implementing data protection by design and by default.
The updated document provides a new sentence: ‘In all stages of design of the processing activities, including procurement, tenders, outsourcing, development, support, maintenance, testing, storage, deletion, etc., the controller should take into account and consider the various elements of DPbDD which will be illustrated by examples in this chapter in the context of implementation of the principles. Controllers need to implement the principles to achieve DPbDD. These principles include: transparency, lawfulness, fairness, purpose limitation, data minimization, accuracy, storage limitation, integrity and confidentiality, and accountability. These principles are outlined in Article 5 and Recital 39 of the GDPR’.
We applaud the EDPB’s efforts in providing greater clarity on how the guidelines in section 3 should be interpreted by controllers in implementing principles through particular technical and organizational measures. At the same time, the EDPB keeps principles and elements together, and some elements are read as an improvement order or direction for a desired action, but not as a practical guide to implement the principle.
Lack of clarity about ‘technology providers’ has been avoided
In the Executive Summary (Scope) of the 2019 document and thereinafter, the draft guidelines introduce a definition of technology providers, which are not directly addressed in Article 25 of the GDPR, but are recognized as key enablers for the DPbDD. The fact that the GDPR does not mention this definition, inevitably leads to methodological ambiguity and inconsistency as the guidelines recognize them as additional ‘key enablers for DPbDD’ (paragraph 85) – distinguishing them from both processors and controllers – but at the same time the document does not clearly define who is to be implied under these providers or how different their legal status, obligations or roles are from those of processors and controllers.
In the updated Guidelines we do not see the notion of ‘technology providers’: the document keeps the notion of ‘producers of the products’ in line with Recital 78 of the GDPR.
Once again, we applaud the EDPB’s decision to maintain consistency in definitions and terminology between guidelines and the GDPR, and thus to remove the notion of ‘technology providers’, which are not mentioned or defined in the Regulation.
Clarification of the ‘state of the art’ organizational measures for controllers
Paragraph 21 in the 2019 draft mentions a ‘state of the art’ criterion, which applies not only to technological measures, but also to organizational ones. Lack of adequate organizational measures can lower or even completely undermine the effectiveness of a chosen technology. As a comment, we deemed it necessary to clarify in the draft guidelines which ‘adequate organizational measures’ are implied here.
The updated Guidelines add clarity on what can be considered as the ‘state of the art’ technological and organizational measures, and say that ‘examples of organizational measures can be adoption of internal policies; up-to date training on technology, security and data protection; and IT security governance and management policies’. We believe this is a great improvement to enable effective implementation of the Guidelines.
