How can I play the K Challenge 456 game?
Controlling the game is accomplished with a mouse or tapping your smartphone screen. In the first level, you will find yourself on the grounds of a tiny arena, at the end of which will be a frightening doll and a group of armed soldiers waiting for you. You should only go cautiously if she has her back turned towards you. Watch her head movements closely as she pivots and scans the whole perimeter of the room. You will have precisely one minute to cross the finish line before the clock runs out. Following that, you'll find a game called "Sugar Honeycomb," in which you'll need to carefully break off bits of Dalgon sweets so that they don't break and end up with the designated figure. Unless you have enough time to complete the task at hand, the soldier will shoot you right away if you don't. Test your strength, endurance, and abilities in a game of tug-of-war, in which you must force the opposing team off a high bridge to win.
Leap the glass bridge, opting for the tempered glass tiles to ensure a safe crossing to the other side. Also, you can use the money you earned to buy one-of-a-kind headgear for your character using the money you deserve.

History 122: American History from 1877|
Professor Thomas Shepard |
Laura Davidson |
Thesis: The Constitution did not initially make reference to the rights of women. Obtaining equal rights for women was a long and intense battle. Women fought for many rights such as, birth control and the right to keep wages. However, the largest of the woman’s rights struggles was for suffrage. |
The limits of freedom for women can be seen throughout history. Evidence of woman’s challenges to achieve equal rights can be observed in many state and federal Constitutional Amendments, Court and Supreme Court rulings, and woman’s groups. The women that fought for the right to vote were known as suffragists and they were perceived as immoral by many people. In 1848, the first woman’s rights convention was held in Seneca Falls, New York. After much deliberation, the Declaration of Sentiments was signed, which defined complaints and set the itinerary for what would come to be known as the woman’s rights movement. “‘The contest with the South that destroyed slavery,’ wrote the Philadelphia lawyer Sidney George Fisher in his diary ‘has caused an immense increase in the popular passion for liberty and equality.’” Women suffragists viewed Reconstruction as their opportunity to obtain their own emancipation. “‘No less than blacks,’ proclaimed Elizabeth Cady Stanton, women had reached a ‘transition period, from slavery to freedom.’” “‘The rewriting of the Constitution,’ declared suffrage leader Olympia Brown, provided the chance to separate the permissions of freedom from sex as well as race and to ‘bury the black man and the woman in the citizen.’” However, supporters of woman’s rights still encountered the limitations of the Reconstruction assurance of equality. The term male was presented in the Constitution for the first time, in 1868, when the 14th Amendment clause specified that any state that refused the right to vote to any particular group of men would be penalized. Consequently, the 14th Amendment didn’t improve the prospect of voting rights for women as the suffragists had hoped it would. In fact, it actually made things worse by only providing voting rights to men specifically. In October of 1972, a woman by the name of Virginia Minor had her voter’s application denied in the state of Missouri. According to the registrar, Reese Happersett, Ms. Minor’s application was denied because the Missouri’s constitution stated: “Every male citizen of the United States shall be entitled to vote.” In the Supreme Court’s unanimous decision of, Minor v. Happersett, the court held that the Constitution doesn’t guarantee women suffrage in federal elections. Woman’s rights leaders Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton tried to have the language of the 14th Amendment contain women. But, many people thought that the issue was too controversial. Additionally, there were many that thought that the approval of the amendment would be in jeopardy if such a controversial issue were included. While the Second Clause of the 14th Amendment penalized the rejection of the right to vote to men, it did not actually deny women the right to vote. In 1868, ninety-five years after it was ratified, the 15th Amendment was also signed into law; the amendment banned discrimination in suffrage based on race, not gender. The 14th and 15th amendments created a hostile divide between feminists, Radical Republicans, and within feminist circles. Although the 15th amendment did not guarantee suffrage for women, Susan B. Anthony used it as justification to vote in a New York election. Ms. Anthony was detained and fined for voting, but the episode proved as motivation to continue the battle for suffrage for women. In May of 1869, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton formed an organization, the National Woman Suffrage Association, with the sole purpose of having an amendment included in...

- Africa Second highest Mountain
- Highest of all Kenya Mountains (5,199m (17,058 feet)
- The national park covers an area of 700 square kilometers
- Main peaks (Batian, Lenana and Nelion)
- Located 180 kilometers North of Nairobi
- Spectacular accommodation at Naru Moru river Lodge
- All Hotels & Airport transfers included.
- Daily departures from Nairobi
MT Kenya National Park
Mount Kenya is Africa’s second highest mountain at 5,199m (17,058 feet) and the highest of all Kenya Mountains. Mount Kenya is roughly circular, about 60km across at the 200mm contour, where the steep font hills rise out of the gentler slopes of the centered highlands. At the centre of the massif, the main peaks rise sharply from around 4,500m to the main summit of Batian 5,199m, Nelion 5,188m and point Lenana 4,985m. Other major summits on the mountain include Point Piggott 4,957m, Point Dutton 4,885 and Point John 4,883m. Of the three main peaks (Batian, Lenana and Nelion), only point Lenana can be reached by trekkers and the other two being only for technical climbers.
Mount Kenya is approximately 200km north of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, and is comfortably accessible by road using a variety of transport options – buses, mini buses, taxi cab or a car hire will get you close to the mountain on the tarred roads to the nearest town: Naromoru town for Naro Moru route, Nanyuki town for Sirimon route and Chogoria town for Chogoria route.
The last stretch from the nearest town to the various trailheads (typically +/- 25km) will be on dirt roads and these can be in poor condition (especially in wet weather) and require a 4WD, or an approach on foot.

Benton Harbor school board approves consolidation
The school board in Benton Harbor has voted to consolidate its schools as part of a five-year plan to eliminate the southwestern Michigan district's deficit.
WSJM-AM and WNDU-TV report the board voted Tuesday night to go forward with the reorganization, which faced opposition from some students and parents. Following the changes, the district will have four K-8 schools, a high school and a Pre-K program. The district's administrative offices also will move.
Superintendent Leonard Seawood says the district plans to complete the changes by 2016. He says the changes will be "historic for our students."
Officials say the consolidation is part of an effort to avoid the possible appointment of a state-appointed emergency financial manager because of the district's financial difficulties.

Now if you've been along on the journey for awhile, you know I love this village. I wrote about it here. The pedimented windows of the village occasioned another post, and I recalled my first visit, a talk by preservation giant Peter Stokes, the day we lost him.
I've shared several of Castleton's distinguished buildings. And there are more. Last Friday I met Candace Cox, and had a tour of a very important one - the village mill.
Let's start with some history - then I'll let you in on a project which is making history.
We start way back around 1806 when teen-aged Joseph Abbot Keeler, founder of Colborne (his fine house still stands in the town,) built a mill at Piper's Corners, on the creek of the same name. Although that mill no longer survives, nearby stands the second mill in the village - Purdy's Mill. The Purdy family operated the mill from 1875 to 1948.
|J.A.Keeler house, Colborne
The 1878 Belden Atlas of Northumberland and Durham Counties features an image of the 20 acres of property surrounding the mill at Piper's Corners, as the village was once called, attesting to the importance of a mill in creating a community. The mill was powered by the waters of Piper Creek, dammed upstream and directed through a flume and over the wheel, which was housed in an extension at the back of the mill building - no longer standing.
The Belden's image (to which I'll provide a link shortly) also depicts the miller's house, bridges, homes and horse-drawn vehicles in that typically bucolic Belden setting.
|the miller's house at Piper Creek
Here's the Cramahe township heritage information about the mill.
link to newspaper coverage of their 2016 'up-cycling Castleton' project.
|photo by Candace Cox
They decorated the village with donated brightly painted bikes and flowers, and produced a calendar featuring the photos of Erich Bojarzin and other villagers (I am very proud of my copy) to help cover costs. Thanks to Candace for allowing me to post part of one of her photos, a bike posing with my favourite general store.
As you know, I'm a fan of making heritage buildings pay their own way. Not every important heritage building can be a museum. We are amply gifted with house museums and pioneer villages in our province.
We have to find a way to preserve and repurpose the best and most iconic of those which remain. And this mill at Castleton fills the bill.
|the mill office
So. I know you're going to want to be in touch. To follow progress. To check on upcoming events to attend. To pledge support - or encourage others - for this wonderful project which will bring new life to this historic village.
Here's the mill Facebook page.
Here's their terrific website - it provides more info on the vision, the history, and Candace and Mitchell's own work. It also shows you that Belden engraving I mentioned above. Do visit. On-line and in person.
You might also want to connect to talk about equipment and furnishings. Candace and Mitchell realize they cannot retain all of the milling equipment. They will rescue and rehabilitate some pieces to add character to the venue. They have also been contacting museums to ascertain interest.
Like the folks from The Mill at Piper Creek.
|the future is bright for the Mill at Piper Creek

The historic document that heralded the collapse of the Soviet Union has gone missing from an archive in Belarus, according to one of its signatories.
“It’s hard to believe the disappearance of a document at such a level, but this is a fact,” Stanislav Shushkevich, the former Belarusian leader, told the Associated Press. He said that he discovered the loss when doing research on his memoirs, and suspects it could have been stolen and sold by a Belarusian official.
The document, signed in December 1991, brought an end to the Soviet Union, which was the largest country on the planet, stretching from the Baltic to the Pacific, from the Arctic to the Pamirs. Mr Shushkevich was the first leader of independent Belarus.
The document was signed at a secret meeting hosted by Mr Shushkevich in the Belovezha Forest in Belarus. He was joined by Russian President Boris Yeltsin and Ukrainian Leonid Kravchuk, and the document declared “the USSR has ceased to exist as a subject of international law and geopolitical reality”.
This thwarted the plans of Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, who wanted to hold the Soviet Union together, and he resigned later in the month. There was confirmation from Belarus that it now possesses only copies of the document.

Bearded dragons can enjoy scrambled eggs as part of their diet. Yes, they can! But there are a few things to consider. Eggs provide high-quality protein, which is key for growth and health. Plus, they contain vitamins and minerals like A and calcium, which are essential for bones and immune systems.
Scrambled eggs should not become a staple food. Offer them as a supplementary meal or snack every now and then. Too much egg or in large amounts can upset the balance of nutrients and could be bad for your pet.
When preparing, no seasonings or additives like salt or oil. Plain cooked eggs only. Cook well to kill any bacteria.
My friend learned the hard way not to season scrambled eggs. She added salt and pepper and her lizard fell ill. Thankfully, with help from a vet, he recovered.
So remember: moderation and no seasonings. Give your scaly friend a varied and balanced diet for optimal health and happiness.
Can Bearded Dragons Eat Scrambled Eggs?
Bearded dragons – interesting reptiles and popular pets! Can they eat scrambled eggs? Simple answer: yes. But, moderation is key. Eggs are a good source of protein – important for growth and development. Cook the eggs thoroughly, no seasoning or additives. Raw or undercooked eggs can contain harmful bacteria like Salmonella – so dangerous for bearded dragons.
Scrambled eggs should not become a staple food. They are omnivores and require diverse diets – fruits, veggies, insects. Occasional treats only. Different dragons may have different dietary requirements – age, health, size. Always consult a vet who specializes in reptiles.
Pro Tip: Cool the eggs before serving. Hot food can cause burns or injuries in their sensitive mouths and digestive systems.
How to Feed Scrambled Eggs to Bearded Dragons
- Preparation: Crack an egg into a bowl and whisk until mixed. No seasonings or additives should be added.
- Cooking: Heat a non-stick pan over low-medium heat. Add a bit of olive oil or butter. Pour the mixture into the pan. Stir with a spatula until soft.
- Serving: Let the eggs cool. Cut into small pieces. Place in a shallow dish or on their feeding surface.
Remember to offer scrambled eggs as a treat, not a regular part of their diet. Feed at room temperature or slightly warm, not hot. To boost nutrients, add some chopped leafy greens or veggies. This tasty combo will provide more vitamins and minerals!
Signs of Allergic Reactions or Digestive Issues
Bearded dragons can show signs of allergic reactions or digestive issues. Keep an eye on these indicators:
- Vomiting food? Could be a digestive issue.
- Lethargic and not eating? May signify digestive problems.
- Redness, swelling, or skin irritation? Allergic reactions.
Also, changes in stool consistency? It could be digestive distress.
For proper diagnosis and treatment, consult a reptile veterinarian. Professional guidance is necessary for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Alternatives to Scrambled Eggs for Bearded Dragons
Bearded dragons need a varied diet for health and thriving. Scrambled eggs can be nutritious, but there are other essential nutrients too. Alternatives include: veggies like kale and collard greens, fruits like strawberries and blueberries, and protein sources like crickets and mealworms. See the table below for more ideas!
Alternatives to Scrambled Eggs for Bearded Dragons:
Plus, cooked sweet potatoes or squash can also be added for variety. Always chop the food into small pieces for easy digestion.
Pro Tip: When introducing new food, keep an eye out for any signs of allergic reactions or digestive issues. Start with small portions and increase gradually if no adverse effects occur.
Bearded dragons can treat themselves to scrambled eggs every now and then. These eggs provide essential proteins and calcium. But, always in moderation. Small portions occasionally! It is important to remember that reptiles have different dietary requirements than humans. So, it’s best to check with a vet before adding any new food to their diet. A balanced diet of veggies and bugs is the key for good health. Keep your dragon happy and healthy by providing a diverse diet that suits their needs.
Tip: Always make sure the eggs are cooked and cooled before serving to your dragon. This helps to avoid health risks from bacteria or parasites.

Soccer — or football as it's known around the world — is arguably the most loved sport on Earth. Although Americans still aren't as enamored of the sport as the rest of the world is, teams around the country are stealing hearts and minds, and Americans are getting into the game. For years, soccer has been a sport played by kids, college students, and ex-pats, but it's now being cheered in stadiums and watched on national TV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGp37du0xbQ
My friend and I were kicking a soccer ball around the front yard. It was maybe 2007 and I was getting ready to leave for a couple weeks on a trial. Trying to be cute, I tried a handling skill where I flipped the ball up behind my back and then kick it with my heel so it comes back over my head again. So I kicked the ball too hard, it goes out into the street, and a truck promptly runs it over.
When looking for the right ball for your child, you may come across a reference to different sizes of soccer balls. These sizes can vary a bit from product to product but most do conform to certain league standards. A size 1 ball is also known as a mini ball and is typically between 18 and 20 inches in circumference. This size is perfect for toddlers and early walkers to help them develop footwork skills and ball control. A size 3 ball, or a junior ball, is usually between 23 and 24 inches around. This is the type of ball that most peewee soccer teams use as it is designed for children 8 years and younger. As your child grows and continues with their soccer team, they will eventually need a size 4 ball which is 25 to 26 inches. This is known as a youth ball and is ideal for children between 8 and 12 years of age. Finally, the size 5 or adult ball is 27 to 28 inches in circumference. This is the size of the soccer ball used by professional athletes and is suitable for anyone age 13 years or older.
The history of soccer balls date back to ancient times. From a couple centuries BC to about 200 AD, the Chinese used balls made from animal skins in a game called 'tsu chu', in which players had to pass them through a net stretched between two poles. The ancient Greeks, Romans, and even the Egyptians are recorded to have enjoyed a similar game that involved kicking a makeshift ball.
Similar to our Traditional Soccer Ball by Wilson, our Performance EPP Glider Soccer Ball by Adidas is composed of a rubber Butyl bladder to ensure it stays inflated longer with a machine stitched exterior. This solar pink/lucky pink soccer ball is sure to be a hit with young girls as it has beautiful purple accents. Your young girl can start practicing soccer drills right away as this ball comes inflated with the perfect amount of air. Giving credit to the incredible stitching and this soccer ball retains air perfectly, even when used on asphalt surfaces. This high quality soccer ball by Adidas is a wonderful option for beginners, and kids in general.
This ball has a TPU cover that we wouldn’t describe as “highly durable” for rough play. Although it handles indoor turf, it won’t handle concrete, gravel, or court-based play like you have with futsal. This ball prefers to have a natural or artificial grass surface and that is about it. If you happen to impact a tree, run the ball on concrete, or have it bounce on a gravel driveway, the outer cover does tend to get scratched up pretty rapidly. The butyl bladder is of a higher quality than other balls at this price point, allowing the ball to hold its inflation pressure with an impressive amount of consistency.
Crafted by Adidas, the Telstar 18 is the official ball of the FIFA World Cup. Drawing inspiration from the company's first World Cup match ball, which debuted at the 1970 tournament in Mexico, the new ball reimagines the 12 black panels on an otherwise white design. Fun fact: the iconic original black and white ball was made that way to be more visible for black-and-white TV viewers, and it was dubbed the "star of television."
Premium Match Balls. These are the most expensive soccer balls that you’ll find on the market today. They are FIFA-approved balls, so they meet all of the standards necessary for international play. Air retention, water-resistance, and performance are far superior when compared to a training ball. Virtually every professional league uses a ball of this quality for game play.
Well-fitted long kids soccer socks offer compression-like support for small shins and calves. Have your child try soccer socks made with climalite® moisture-wicking fabric which pulls sweat away from the skin as they run up and down the pitch. Ventilation in the sock’s toe area and extra cushioning in the foot-bed will provide breathable support and comfort for the entire match.
Everything becomes scaled down for smaller soccer players compared to the adult game. Kids play on small fields nowhere near the size of a full regulation field 100 or more yards long, with as few as three players compared to 11 for grownups. Even in a league, parents may serve as referees, games may last only 20 minutes and scores more than likely won't be kept. In keeping with this small world, kids' soccer balls are also smaller.
Ive just recieved the actual item and kind of disappointed at the moment. I have not taken pictures but I can if any1 wants to see it but that ball came with a bump. Right after a inflated it Ive noticed that it has noticeable bump and the spot is a bit curved. Guys im trying to buy a ball, why is it that hard to have it perfectly round , I mean come on ...
While this ball is absolutely adorable and feels like it's a good quality, I'm disappointed with the one I received. It has little chips in the design—there are a few little white marks in the sections that are orange. Also, there is some sort of sticky stuff on the ball, almost like residue from an old sticker. I can probably remove it with Goo-Gone... I'm just not thrilled that it seems to be used or at least bought and returned. While I'm sure my nephew will love it for his 1st birthday party tomorrow, I'm mildly embarrassed to give it to my brother and his wife because of the appearance.

Young girls will surely enjoy this beautiful Vizari Blossom Soccer Ball as it has beautiful bold blossom graphics on a vibrant pink background. Measuring 8.6 x 5.7 x 3.2 inches when fully inflated, this soccer ball fits into small hands comfortably. Although it does not come inflated, this 32 panel ball has a rubber Butyl bladder to ensure the best air retention possible when inflated. It is important to take note of that, as you will need a pump in order for your kid to use this soccer ball. Furthermore, this Vizari Soccer Ball is stitched using machine technology to further improve overall durability.
When it comes to the training soccer ball, it can be purchased at a much-reduced price as compared to the actual match-ball. Incorporating inferior quality materials in its construction, this is an ideal equipment for the sake of training. So if you’re looking for any such ball to sharpen your skills, have a look at the Adidas Champion’s League Finale Capitano Soccer Ball.
All in all a street soccer ball needs to be rough and tough with all the attributes we discussed so far. Senda street soccer ball has fulfilled all these requirements, and met our expectation. We recommend you to buy this option if you want to play on street or hard surface. We found this as a good quality model with the proper construction as we discussed. The weight and bounce are also according to the requirement of a street soccer ball.

If my posting to this blog is somewhat less frequent than usual this week it is because I am at music camp. I'm in Nebraska, with over 100 kids from Iowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota. They are here to learn how to play brass instruments, play guitar, and sing. In addition to helping them with their horns and music theory, I'm also leading a photography class.
It's hot. And we're busy.
I took this photo of the lake last night before the kids got here and everything got crazy.

Excellent lift kit - rides super nice with the fox shocks and better priced than the Mopar lift. Only annoying thing was drilling out larger holes necessary to install new sway bar links; better have about 6 drill bits!!!!! My JL rides really nice now and has a great stance. Yea
This kit is definitely good with the Fox shocks, better handling and driving. I got about 3 inches of lift all around.
The shocks make the Jeep ride like my wife’s Lexus used to ride. This lift makes you forget that you are driving a Jeep.
So far so good rides good. The shocks work really well
Excellent ride and easy install with quality parts.
Love my lift can’t wait to come back for more upgrades!
Great package , I recommend it The price was right for me and I honestly like the brand
Q: Hello, The Fox shocks on this kit, what model and year are they? With this kit, what else are recommend for a smooth operation of my Jeep? Thanks and I hope to get a reply. Armando Answer this question
A: It’s for a JLU 18-23. I installed it on my wife’s jeep as she wanted to be close to factory ride feel as possible. You don’t need anything else. No need for adjustable track bars. Good as it is. Also, you need to ask what u are looking for. For example heavy off-road, then I would recommend a complete kit, but it won’t feel good as a daily driver
Answered by Rubicosha from Sacramento Ca on 09/09/2022

The first budget black hole was a mere $540 million. That was in 1987 dollars, which is around $1.5 billion these days. It was in John Howard's tax policy, assembled by his shadow treasurer Jim Carlton and launched during the 1987 election. Paul Keating seized on it and tore Howard apart, because it really was a black hole -- Howard admitted it was an error by Carlton. His campaign never recovered.
Ever since, governments in election campaigns have been trying to replicate Keating's 1987 attack, and failing. Keating himself tried it again the following election and failed -- though it didn't stop him trying every election after that. It has become yet another pointless ritual of politics, like governments issuing demands about what opposition leaders "must do" the afternoon before a budget reply speech. The closest any government got was the Howard government after the 1996 election, when it confected the claim of an $8 billion "Beazley black hole" about the budget Labor had left the Coalition. It's true that the Keating government's budget forecasts were decidedly optimistic -- but both sides were aware of that and it suited both Howard and Keating in the lead-up to the election to ignore the fiscal reality.

UK NEWS UPDATES:
Doctors call for Covid Plan B to start in England
An “unacceptable” level of Covid cases means ministers should trigger their Plan B for the pandemic in England, doctors say. The British Medical Association accused the government of being “wilfully negligent” for not reimposing Covid rules such as mandatory face masks. Daily UK infections have been above 40,000 for eight days in a row. Health Minister Edward Argar said the NHS is not under “unsustainable pressure” to justify restrictions. He told BBC Breakfast there were about 95,000 beds in NHS hospitals, with 7,000 occupied by Covid patients and 6,000 currently empty.
“We know how those numbers can rise swiftly, which is why we’re looking at that day by day, hour by hour. But at the moment we do have the ability to manage,” he said.
Government borrowing fell in September compared with a year earlier as the economy continued to recover from coronavirus lockdowns
Borrowing – the difference between spending and tax income – stood at £21.8bn, which was £7bn less than in September 2020. But the figure was still the second highest for September since monthly records began in 1993. Borrowing hit record levels during the pandemic. The government spent billions of pounds on emergency measures to protect wages, such as the furlough scheme, which wrapped up last month.
Tesla reports record sales and profits
Electric car maker Tesla has brushed off supply chain issues and the global microchip shortage to report record quarterly sales and profits. Revenues rose to $13.76bn in the third quarter of the year, up from $8.77bn 12 months earlier.
The company, led by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, posted a net profit of $1.6bn and sold 241,391 cars. “We achieved our best-ever net income, operating profit and gross profit,” Tesla said. The firm said China remained its main exporting hub and it planned to roll out a different type of battery in its standard vehicles worldwide. The new lithium iron phosphate batteries are cheaper than traditional batteries but offer lower range, Reuters reported. Analysts said this could help keep costs down and address part shortages.
Unilever warn of price rises
The company behind brands such as Marmite, PG Tips and Dove has said it will raise prices to cope with “elevated levels” of cost inflation which it expects to continue next year. Consumer goods giant Unilever said it had already taken “appropriate pricing action”. Unilever said this would continue across its global operations and within each of its product divisions. The company reported a 2.5% rise in sales for the third quarter. Growth was supported by a 4.1% increase in prices while the volume of goods sold fell by 1.5%. On Wednesday, the Office for National Statistics said that the UK consumer prices index (CPI) measure of inflation slowed to 3.1% in the year to September.
UK government secures groundbreaking COVID-19 antivirals
The new antivirals could be rolled out through a clinical study from winter.
Thousands of vulnerable patients could be taking ground-breaking COVID-19 antivirals this winter after the government announced deals to secure 2 new treatments. The deals made by the Antivirals Taskforce are a significant step in its ambition to secure at least 2 new effective treatments by the end of the year for those who have either tested positive for COVID-19 or have been exposed to someone with the virus. Should the treatments be approved by the UK’s renowned medicines regulator – the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) – thousands of NHS patients will be able to access the treatments to prevent the infection from spreading and speed up recovery time.
The 2 new antivirals are expected to be given to those most at risk from the virus, helping reduce the severity of symptoms and ease pressure on the NHS over winter.

End of timber shortages in sight
Near record-breaking softwood timber imports have replenished stocks to a level needed to meet the demand surge from construction. This brings the prospect of an easing in supply bottlenecks once ongoing delivery issues from a shortage of HGV drivers are resolved. According to the Timber Trades Federation more than 7 million m3 of timber and panel products were imported by the UK between January and July. This is nearly 2 million m3 above the same period in 2020, and half a million m3 above 2019 levels – the UKs last ‘regular year’ before COVID-19 – which is about an 8% increase.

The government is working on a means for children to show they have recovered from Covid and are fit to travel, the health secretary has confirmed.
At a press conference on Wednesday (20 October), Sajid Javid was asked about children who had contracted Covid and recovered before the offer of a vaccine and what the government would do to provide them with proof of recovery so they can travel during half-term and beyond. He replied: “In many countries where they have a vaccination rule for entry… they would treat anyone under 16 as being fully vaccinated, as the UK does. That doesn’t apply to every single country, so we are working on a plan that would give some proof of antibodies, but it will be up to the country the child is travelling to to decide to accept that.” How to quarantine and test at home if you’ve been in a red list country and have permission to quarantine at home

VIDEO: Original Port Mann Bridge demolition in time lapse
July 27, 2016 by On-Site Magazine
The original Port Mann Bridge stood tall in British Columbia for nearly 50 years before officials decided to replace it with a wider bridge of the same name. Built in 1964, the bridge was four-lanes wide and, at the time it was built was the most expensive stretch of road in Canada. The new bridge it was replaced by spans 10 lanes wide and held the title of the widest bridge in the world until the new San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge was completed in 2013.

Every other year for the last twenty years or more, there has been a Dutch writer-in-residence in town for a semester. Invited by the U-M English department and supported by the Foundation for the Production and Translation of Dutch Literary Works in Amsterdam, the visiting writer has had to teach only one fairly small writing workshop and give a reading. Although all of the Dutch writers-in-residence have had wonderful skill with English, most of them have not had books available in our language. So, as interesting as they have been, they have passed through Ann Arbor without being noticed by the larger community.
Karel van Loon, this year's Dutch writer-in-residence, is worth noticing, and he does have a book in translation. Van Loon has traveled widely around the world, writing often about Asia and the wars there, in addition to making films, writing about rock 'n' roll, and finishing best-selling novels. His 1999 novel, recently translated into English as A Father's Affair, has sold almost 300,000 copies in the Netherlands (in proportion to the population, that is the equivalent of 10 million copies in the U.S.), has been turned into a film, and has been translated into twenty-nine languages.
The plot is fairly simple, but it is centered on an elemental situation. Armin Minderhout has a thirteen-year-old son by his first wife, who died ten years before the novel begins. After having difficulty conceiving a child with his second wife, he is told that he is sterile and has always been sterile. The boy cannot be his child. Armin sets out to find the father, even though he has few clues and no one to ask. Although a decidedly modern man with the sophisticated urbanity we like to associate with European intellectuals, he is possessed and driven by jealousy. Before he resolves his questions, his jealousy almost destroys the extraordinary relationship he has with his wife and son.
But the plot provides only a small part of the pleasures of A Father's Affair. The book has an easy reference to theology, is often wonderfully sexy, and has finely observed descriptions of Dutch landscapes. Late in the book, Armin and the boy who is and is not his son go out to the Dutch islands for a few days of fishing and bird-watching:
. . . on the islands, nature is still important. Whether the tide is out or in. Whether the wind is pounding the water against the dike, or against the dunes. Whether the moon is bright enough to go looking for owls. Whether the lapwing is brooding. Whether the brent geese have come back, or just left for their nesting grounds in western Siberia.
One of the successes of A Father's Affair is that its narrative can have passages like this, yet the pacing never seems to slow or lose its focus on Armin's desperate search.
Karel van Loon reads from his novel at Shaman Drum Bookshop on Tuesday, February 17.

It all started with a mouse No, the title isn't what happened to Walt Disney? I’m asking what happened to the dream of a special place where a dad could take his daughters and experience a place of magic and wonder. In case you never heard the story, when Walt's daughters were very young Saturday… Continue reading What Happened to Walt’s Disney?

Top 5 Blu-ray movies loaded with Extras!
Last blog I wrote about being addicted to physical media. This blog covers 5 of the best Blu-ray/4K discs that would make anyone an addict. The only rule is no box sets can be on the list.

Just When You Thought it was Safe to go Back in the Theater?
The Box Office was back! So it seemed to the delight of movie executives who were thankful to still have a job. It started with A Quiet Place II scoring 57.1 million (3726 theaters) in its opening weekend May 28, 2021. The same weekend saw Cruella make 26.5 million (3892 theaters), but the total take… Continue reading Just When You Thought it was Safe to go Back in the Theater?

A Death in the DC Family
Artwork by Andrea Benham On December 15, 1978, the world would come to believe a man could fly. This was a big part of the marketing campaign for Superman: The Movie directed by Richard Donner. But not many people believed just how true the marketing campaign would turn out to be. However, Donner had very little… Continue reading A Death in the DC Family

I'd like to know...
Today is Monday, so that means it's time for I'd like to know, a weekly post dedicated to talented artists, designers, musicians, etc...all people I'd like to know and who I thought you may like to know of too. This week I'd like to know...Martha Stewart's prop librarian. I first learned about Martha's prop room via The Constant Gatherer (the constantly lovely blog). According to Martha's blog: "The people who work in this department are called prop librarians and they know exactly where everything is located. And just like a good library, every single object in this room is labeled with a description, the size, the quantity, and a bar code." This sounds like a collectors dream job! Actually, I think I'd rather be the "prop hunter". Martha, do you have any job openings?

The past few years have been very kind to Charleston. We’ve been showered with praise and honored with so many awards it’s getting kind of hard not to get a big head. It seems like everyone loves us. But when the folks at Condé Nast Traveler declared that Charleston was the Best City in the World, the news still managed to come as a complete shock. What about New York City, we asked? Or London? Or Paris? Or Rome? Surely we’re not as great as those places? We’re just teeny, tiny Charleston, S.C. But apparently, we’re as good as those places. And frankly, we’re absolutely thrilled and completely humbled. After all, it wasn’t so long ago that the Holy City was — dare we say it — a scary, broken-down eyesore. However, thanks to the collective effort of all the people who call this great American city home, we’ve turned this old town around and made it into a world-class travel destination and a great place to live. So enjoy this moment, everyone. We may never have another like it.
Once upon a time, Jack — a young man of humble birth whose ancestors had never quite saved up enough to warrant a family name worth remembering — found himself before the Constable. Sworn to uphold the law in this quaint seaside town, the Constable twisted the corner of his mustache as Jack stood before him, dressed in tattered sackcloth barely fit for a worn-out mare put to pasture, no less a man. — Dustin Waters

A Message from Senator Burr
December 4, 2009
This week, the President revealed his strategy for the war in Afghanistan and the deployment of 30,000 additional U.S. troops to the region. I am encouraged that President Obama supports an increase in American troop levels in Afghanistan, in accordance with the requests of our commanders and to reinforce our troops on the ground.
What is even more important than the overall number committed, however, is that they be the right blend of troops with the appropriate training and skills to accomplish our mission so that we can place the future of Afghanistan back into the hands of the Afghan people. On a recent trip to Afghanistan, I had the opportunity to meet with our military commanders, as well as the troops in the field, and heard firsthand their desire to win and come home quickly. The President's decision is a step in the right direction.
Health Care Update
The Senate floor this week has been focused on debate on Senator Reid's (D-NV) health care reform bill. The Senate will be in session this weekend to vote on amendments.
In an attempt to protect Medicare from funding cuts, Senator McCain (R-AZ) offered an amendment on Monday that I was happy to support. The amendment would have sent the bill back to the Senate Finance Committee with instructions for them to remove the cuts to Medicare. As I have stated before, I agree we need health reform, but cutting Medicare by half a trillion dollars in order to create new government programs and obligations is not the answer. According to government actuaries, Medicare will become insolvent in just 8 years. Now is the time to strengthen Medicare's financial footing, not undermine it further. Unfortunately, Senator McCain's amendment failed to gain enough votes to succeed, and the Medicare cuts remain in the Reid bill. I will continue to work to ensure this bill does not become law, and will work with my colleagues to enact meaningful alternative solutions that actually lower health care costs and protect taxpayers.

Personalized recommendation systems are highly complex, dynamic, and change unpredictably based on various factors. As a result, these models are time-consuming and notoriously challenging to troubleshoot when issues arise.
- Better visualize high-dimensional features such as customer behavior and purchase history to fully understand the impact of each feature on model performance
- Optimize recommendation relevancy by measuring rank-aware metrics
- Improve conversion rates and boost sales by proactively monitoring recommendation performance by ranked groups
Fraud detection models need to continuously adapt to the evolving tactics of fraudsters. However, because they leverage a constant stream of new data, fraud models frequently encounter missing ground truth data, imbalanced class distribution between fraudulent and non-fraudulent transactions, and complex feature generation — all of which makes evaluating model performance difficult.
- Safeguard monetary loss by monitoring drifting dimensions to catch new and evolving fraudulent behaviors
- Detect and investigate suspicious activities in real-time, even if you don’t have ground truth data, to enhance customer satisfaction and minimize financial impact
- Improve model performance with in-depth comparisons between training and production data to easily identify anomalous or underrepresented cohorts
Predictive Sales (Time Series Forecasting)
Predictive sales models generally use historical data. Because of the highly dynamic nature of sales and the volatility of the broader economic environment, this can create misleading or inaccurate predictions. In addition, the nature of highly dynamic sales environments can impact trends quickly, causing misleading or inaccurate predictions.
- Track data quality at scale to improve the data pipeline and proactively catch anomalous patterns
- Monitor drifting sales trends, product demand, and consumer behavior to identify changes before they impact the business
- Optimize inventory, reduce overhead costs, and plan marketing strategies with a clear understanding of model performance in real-time
