Ray Emery made 31 saves, while Luke Schenn netted the game-winning goal—his first career playoff goal--11:18 into the second period, propelling the Flyers to a 4-2 win over the New York Rangers in game 2 of their First Round Eastern Conference Series Sunday afternoon at Madison Square Garden.
Emery stood on his head all game, stopping all 17 shots he faced in a frantic second period in which the Flyers were outshot 17-9. After making 32 saves in game 1, Emery came up even bigger in game 2, backstopping a Flyers team that was outshot 33-25 by the Rangers.
After Martin St.Louis and Benoit Pouliot put the Rangers up 2-0 early in the game, Jakub Voracek and Jason Akeson responded for Philly later on, knotting the game at two.
Luke Schenn gave the Flyers the lead 11:18 into the second period.
Adam Hall created the play, driving to the net and wiring a shot that Lundqvist turned away.
Schenn pinched in from the blueline, hopping on the rebound and beating Lundqvist with a backhand shot that found the upper part of the net.
The goal held up as the game-winner as Wayne Simmonds tallied an empty-netter with 26 remaining in regulation to give the Flyers the 4-2 win.
With the victory, the Flyers snap a nine-game losing streak at MSG, winning in New York for the first time since Feb. 20, 2011.
The series is now tied 1-1 and will head back to Philadelphia for game 3 on Tuesday.
The Rangers struck first on Sunday, scoring the first two goals of the game during the first 8:22 of play.
Martin St.Louis opened the scoring 4:08 into the game, beating Ray Emery for his first goal of the playoffs.
The play was setup by playmaker Dereck Stepan, who took a pass from Rick Nash in the high slot before dishing out to St.Louis--who was parked in the right circle.
St.Louis slid a few strides before one-timing the Stepan pass past the glove of Emery, giving the Rangers the 1-0 lead.
Benoit Pouliot added to the lead on a power play just over four minutes later. With Sean Couturier in the box for roughing, Pouliot took a wonderful cross-ice pass from Derick Brassard before wiring one past Emery.
Just like that, the Rangers were up 2-0 with just 8:22 passed in the hockey game.
The Flyers took three minor penalties in the first frame, something they knew they were supposed to cut out heading into game two.
The Flyers got the important next goal before the period expired though, and it came courtesy of Jakub Voracek.
Voracek drove the puck down the right side, beating Rangers’ star defenseman Ryan McDonagh before cutting to the net and beating Henrik Lundqvist in tight, putting the Flyers on the board with just over five minutes remaining in the first.
Voracek’s third career playoff goal made it 2-1 Rangers heading into the second period.
The Flyers tied the game 5:45 into the second period, and it came courtesy of rookie Jason Akeson.
Akeson—who took the double minor penalty in game 1 that ultimately cost the Flyers the game—redeemed himself on the power play in game 2.
After a Vincent Lecavalier point shot got denied by Lundqvist, Brayden Schenn captured the rebound in the slot.
Schenn dished the puck to Akeson, who was parked to the right of Lundqvist. Akeson wired the shot past the blocker of the Rangers’ goalie, knotting the game at two.
Ray Emery was outstanding in the second period, stopping all 17 shots he faced from the Rangers. His best save came on sniper Rick Nash, who had a glorious opportunity all alone in the slot.
The Flyers shut the door in the third period and got a break with 1:17 remaining in the game.
With Henrik Lundvist headed to the bench for the extra attacker, the Rangers put one too many players on the ice, meaning the Flyers would head to the power play for the remaining of regulation.
With the goalie pulled for 5-on-5 action, Mat Read got the puck to Simmonds, who buried the puck for an empty-net goal.
- With Steve Mason out with an injury, Ray Emery started back-to-back game for first time this season
- The goal by St.Louis was his first even-strength tally since coming over to the Rangers at the trade deadline
- Both of Akeson’s and Schenn’s goals were their first ever NHL playoff goals
- The Rangers went 1-for-6 on the power play, while the Flyers went 1-for-3
- This was the 10th time since 2005-06 the Flyers came into Game 2 down 1-0 in a series. They won four of the previous nine times
- When the Flyers win a Game 2 of a playoff series, they are 30-7. When they lose, however, they are 8-23
- Scoot Hartnell picked up an assist on the Voracek goal. Hartnell leads all Flyers with two points through two playoff games
- Braydon Coburn led all Flyers with five shots on goal and 21:58 of ice time. He also blocked four shots
- Claude Giroux doesn’t have a shot on goal in this series, but he picked up an assist on Sunday and led all Flyers with a plus-2 rating
Tickets for Game 3 against the Rangers start at $86.

RUSSIAN ARCTIC REGIONS STRENGTHEN BONDS WITH BEIJING
[Last week, 9/20, Paul Goble told us about China’s plans to separate the Middle Volga from Russia. We’ve long known about China’s plans to recapture Far Eastern Siberia. Now, as Paul explains this week, China may have plans to control Russia’s entire Arctic.]
Moscow has long declared that China’s role in the development of the Northern Sea Route (NSR) is a central part of their strategic cooperation. Despite this, the Kremlin cannot be entirely comfortable with the recent extent of Beijing’s expanding activities in the Arctic Sea.
Nor can Moscow be at ease with the Chinese government’s increasing ties with Russian regional governments in the Far North and along the coast of the Arctic Sea.
If any country other than China did the same, Moscow almost certainly would denounce such actions as neo-colonialism. If any country other than Russia did so anywhere else in the world, the Russian government would make the same pronouncement.
Given the international sanctions regime, Russia has little choice but to allow China to take these steps. Such actions carry the risk that the Russian-Chinese alliance may begin to collapse, with ever-more Russians concerned that Moscow is losing out to Beijing.
Russian commentators and officials have expressed concerns on this point with growing frequency over the past several years. Since Chinese President Xi Jinping’s summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in March 2023, however, Russian analysts have published fewer articles on China’s actions in the Arctic.
This reflects the difficult position the Russian leadership finds itself in with international sanctions and the Putin government increasingly cracking down on narratives that challenge its basic foreign and domestic policy lines.
It would be a mistake to assume that the concerns Russians have expressed in the past have disappeared. Increased Chinese activities in the Arctic have likely had the opposite effect, even if there is less public acknowledgment.
Beijing’s moves in the Arctic since the spring of 2022 have taken on two basic forms: increasing scientific research in the Arctic Sea itself (Ru.arctic.ru, September 21) and expanding contacts with the heads of the littoral Russian regions (The Barents Observer, September 22).
It is Beijing’s efforts in hosting and then visiting leaders of the Russian regions on the Arctic Sea littoral that has the potential to unsettle relations of China and Russia.
Since last spring, Beijing has either hosted or sent its diplomatic and commercial representatives to visit the leaders of Murmansk Oblast (T.me/andrey_chibis, September 16), Arkhangelsk Oblast (Vk.com/a.tsybulskiy, May 16), the Komi Republic (Vk.com/vladimiruiba, May 23) and the Nenets Autonomous Okrug (Vk.com/juri_bezdudnyi, May 21). See Russa’s Arctic Regions map above.
The governors were predictably upbeat about growing Chinese involvement, as Moscow has cut subsidies to the regions due to the costs of the war in Ukraine. Beijing is more than ready to provide additional infusions of cash.
Moscow’s reaction to this Chinese diplomatic offensive has been muted. The state-owned Russian media largely ignored these contacts between the Chinese officials and Russian regional leaders.
A meeting in Moscow on September 7 between senior officials from Russia and China included the obligatory optimistic comments but failed to reach an agreement on any of the issues discussed. This included the future of international organizations such as the Arctic Council (Mid.ru, August 9).
Moscow has a compelling reason for such caution: the influx of Chinese money into these regions is likely to be followed by an influx of Chinese workers. This is all the more significant as the Russian populations in these areas are small and declining.
This growing Chinese presence runs the risk of affecting the political stances of the various regional elites. Already, Chinese migrants are close to, or soon will be, the largest ethnic group in some regions of the Russian Far East (Kasparov.ru, September 7).
Beyond these regions’ populations being quite small, Russians are leaving in massive numbers, allowing what might appear to be smaller groups of Chinese immigrants to have an outsized impact (RBC, September 13).
Such fears are undoubtedly on the minds of many in Moscow. Yet, the Kremlin might have a more immediate worry: As China has become involved in Russian regions elsewhere, it has given the leaders of these regions the political capital to parry Moscow’s demands (see TTP, September 20).
If that pattern holds in the Arctic, Moscow will become increasingly wary and more fault lines will likely begin to appear in the Russian-Chinese alliance.
Paul Goble is a longtime specialist on ethnic and religious questions in Eurasia. Serving in various capacities in the U.S. State Department, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the Voice of America, he has been decorated by the governments of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania for his work in promoting Baltic independence and the withdrawal of Russian forces from those formerly occupied lands.

Brisbane is one of the top 3 locations in Australia when it comes to property investing. So it’s no surprise that you’re looking to invest in this area. To add to the appeal, Brisbane experienced record-breaking double-digit1 growth over the past year.
The median property prices grew an incredible 13% 1 over 12 months. For some, this percentage increase on a property may exceed their annual income. So if you’re looking to invest long-term and turn a profit as big as your annual income, you may want to give investment properties a go.
This is just the median increase - some properties have exceeded 30% 1 growth. With the successful 2032 Olympic Games bid fuelling expansion, the region is only going to experience greater growth and a plethora of new jobs. This in turn means that property prices will keep increasing and it may become more difficult to afford as time goes on.
Double-digit growth in the median property price and forecasts of infrastructure growth are great market indicators. There are, however, some other objective ways of determining if a property is a wise investment. These indicators cater to long-term ownership and favour houses over units/apartments.
The impartial indicators:
- The number of residents in scarce skilled jobs (whose income is statistically above average).
- The median rental yield in these areas, which is linked to the point above. This affects passive income from investment properties.
- Demand for property outweighs the supply.
- Positive growth in the area, based on historical data.
- Projected improvement in the surrounding infrastructure.
Read on to see how the following 6 suburbs fare against the above criteria. Bear in mind that the stipulated rental yields in this article are for houses and not units.

- Median 3 bedroom house price: 1,100,000 2
- Year-on-year change in the median sale price: 10.1% 3
- Rental yield: 2.6% 2
Bardon is an inner-ring suburb which means its growth will benefit greatly from the lifestyle it offers. It still has the benefit of being a family-friendly suburb with a decent amount of foliage to give it that scenic, suburban feel. However, the location of this suburb — just 5km from the Brisbane CBD — has made it one of the more expensive options on our list.
Results from a 2016 survey also indicate that the average weekly household income of the residents is close to twice 4 the Queensland average. This may be partly due to the main demographic being mature and established couples/families 5 that have grown in their careers. Looking at the trend, it is likely the median household income will consistently grow.
The capital growth rate may not be as high as some of the other entries on the list. However, the median house price is higher overall. If the property is sold after several years, this could lead to a higher yield.
The population is hovering around 9,505 6 with 21.50% 6 of the residents living in rental accommodation. The percentage of tenants has slowly decreased 7 over the years with the majority of the residents being mortgage holders. The area has a 1.38% 6 vacancy rate and experiences an above-average demand. Each listing averages 1,389 5 visits per month and sits on the market for around 85 days 6 before being sold.
- Located in the inner-ring (5km from the CBD).
- Local demographic earns well above the average household income.
- Higher than average price point.
- A decreasing percentage of tenants.
- Year-on-year change in the median sale price is lower than other list entries.

Fifth best to invest in
- Median 3 bedroom house price: 600,000 8
- Year-on-year change in the median sale price: 25.12% 9
- Rental yield: 3.5%
A suburb with an affordable price point, Scarborough is a seaside village 35km from the Brisbane CBD. The suburb is close to Kippa-Ring train station which may alleviate the issue of being so far from the CBD.
The year-on-year increase in the median sales price is an impressive 25%, which is higher than the other entry-level options on this list. The rental yield is also higher than average making it a better investment for potential landlords.
The population sits at 15,470 10 with 32.80% 10 of the residents being tenants. The weekly household income of the residents is slightly above the Queensland average 11 with the majority of residents living in rental accommodation, and mortgage holders being a close second. 12 The age of the average resident is 49 years old 13 which may indicate a more reliable pool of tenants that plan to stay long term.
- Higher rental yield.
- Good Y-O-Y growth in the median sales prices.
- Entry-level price range.
- Mature demographic which is often desirable for investors.
- Far from the CBD.
- Possibly a difficult market to break into due to high demand.
Fourth best to invest in
- Median 3 bedroom house price: 760,000 14
- Year-on-year change in the median sale price: 14.79% 15
- Rental yield: 3.2% 14
Carina Heights is deemed one of the top 5 growth suburbs 16 in Brisbane. It has a growth forecast of 24% 16 over the next 3 years. It is just outside of the inner ring at 7km from the Brisbane CBD and equally far away from Moreton Bay. It’s more affordable than its neighbouring suburbs and has an above-average rental yield.
The weekly incomes in the region have seen exponential growth over the last few decades 17. This trend is still being observed and a demographic with a high disposable income is always a plus. The largest demographic is mortgage holders 18, with tenants coming in second at 39.59%. 19 The area attracts relatively high demand with each listing getting 1,247 visits per month 14 and the suburb has a vacancy rate of 1.85%. 19
Older couples and families make up the largest portion of the demographic 14, and the average age of residents is 37 years old. 20 This option is best suited to you if you’re looking for a semi-affordable property that will experience high, long-term growth.
- A high percentage of residents are tenants.
- Deemed one of the top 5 growth suburbs in Brisbane.
- The local demographic earns a good income.
- Slightly lower Y-O-Y increase in the median sales prices.
- Neighbouring suburbs may seem more desirable to the public.
Third best to invest in
- Median 3 bedroom house price: 607,000 21
- Year-on-year change in the median sale price: 21.6% 22
- Rental yield: 3.93% 23
Keperra is a wonderful option for those looking for an entry-level property. The suburb is 9km from the CBD and close to a railway station. The excellent transport facilities are usually a promising indicator of growth, and that goes for most suburbs.
The weekly household income of the occupants has steadily increased over the years and has always been higher than the Queensland average. 24 This generally means the residents have enough disposable income to enter the property market or dabble in it even further. It could also indicate that your potential tenants will always be able to pay rent on time.
The suburb is home to 6,814 25 people of which 30.91% 25 are renters. The area has few properties available and a low vacancy rate of 0.68%, 25 indicating high demand. Each listing has an average of 1,424 21 visits per month.
The main demographic in the area is mature and established couples/families which may explain the hesitancy to sell as well as the limited data on how long it may take to sell a property. However, the number of rental accommodations has been steadily increasing over the years. 26 This may be of interest to you if you plan on becoming a landlord.
- Entry-level price range.
- Very high demand for properties in this suburb.
- High rental yield.
- Excellent local public transport.
- Very low vacancy rate and a demographic that may not want to part with their properties.
- Lower than average population.

- Year-on-year change in the median sale price: 18.0% 28
- Rental yield: 3.6% 27
Salisbury is located 12km from the Brisbane CBD. The suburb offers many sources of entertainment for its residents. There are several sports centres, parks, reserves, and wetlands available for exploration. The suburb also has several tertiary education institutes. This may explain why around 15% 27 of the population are independent youths.
The suburb is home to 8,207 29 people with 38.75% 29 of its residents making use of rental accommodation. The area has a very low vacancy rate of about 0.59% 29 and it takes longer than usual to sell a property (210 days).
These properties do have renovation potential due to their entry-level price range. Some properties can sell for as low as an affordable $450,000. 30 The rental yield is also decent if you’re looking to become a landlord.
This suburb has a lot of potential and you may find a hidden gem with enough research. The reason being: the area isn’t being overhyped. Additionally, the potential for growth in the suburb is due to its proximity to Mt Gravatt 30 – the major transport hub with direct access to the CBD.
- Many entry-level properties to begin investing in.
- A high percentage of residents use rental accommodation.
- Located close to excellent public transport.
- The suburb may contain some properties with major aesthetic/functional issues.
- Low vacancy rates may make it difficult to enter the market.
The best to invest in
- Median 3 bedroom house price: 950,000 31
- Year-on-year change in the median sale price: 34.0% 32
- Rental yield: 2.7% 31
Topping our list for investment potential is Ashgrove. Like Bardon, it’s also 5km from the CBD but still maintains a family-friendly environment. Ashgrove is very walkable and has enough nature and greenery to make it worth mentioning. This suburb is more affordable than Bardon, with the benefits of a much higher yearly growth.
There is some commercial development taking place which is a great non-numerical indicator of growth. There are rare architectural options in this suburb. There are also a number of wooden homes, colonial cottages, and properties dubbed ‘Ashgrovian’ (a unique style of the Queenslander home).
The weekly family income in this region is also more than double that of the Queensland average. 33 Well over 50% 31 of the demographic are mature and established people with families. This may explain the impressive local schooling district.
The area experiences the highest demand from the entries on the list, with properties averaging 1,678 31 visits per month and the average time to sell a house is around 70 34 days. The population is sitting at around 13,038 with 24.48% 34 of the residents being tenants. Mortgage holders have consistently been the largest percentage of residents. 35 This may be due to the high earning pattern of the locals.
- Very high growth every year.
- Very high demand for property in the area.
- Located in the inner-ring.
- The slightly higher price point.
- Lower rental yield than other list entries.
Further factors to consider
There is nuance in every suburb. While you might be able to afford a property in at least one of the areas listed, you will need to understand the location and demographic on a deeper level.
There are always some areas within a suburb that should be avoided. Or alternatively, you should manage your expectations when dabbling in these less-than-ideal spots. Some regions may be prone to flooding and other natural disasters, while others may just have poor reputations. You might struggle to find this information online.
Doing your own research outside of the internet will help you greatly. Interview the locals and spend enough time in the suburb of your choice. If you personally approve of the location, you’ll have an easier time convincing someone else to buy/rent your investment property.

The process of planning this wedding has been a group/family/friend effort. However, when I actually began to see all the things the people who love us put together and made for our wedding it was overwhelming.
I’m still feeling the love….
Of course, my mom did many things, but I must mention a few: knitted a special shawl for months for me to wear (and I needed it!), arranged pick up from Whole Foods, Warren’s Farm, and a friend’s garden for all the different flowers in our bouquets, surprised me with “perfect pair” plastic keg cups. This list just touches the surface of what she did.
Jimmy’s mom: Cut the circles into books for our centerpieces (hard work!), put together the “pie team,” and planned an amazing rehearsal dinner.
Robert (mom’s sweetheart): made perfect mason jar candles that hung from ribbons off the porch, took charge of all lighting and fire pit, took so many special photos of moments I would never have caught like me seeing the shawl for the first time.
My Uncle Jim: who thought to send Jimmy and I a little fun money the week before the wedding. We SO needed it!
Chandra and Butch (Jimmy’s cousins): They labored and worked on the curtain/sheath type thing that gave me a grand entrance and hid the cars in the driveway. They spent so much time making this perfect and professional. Their sweat showed pure love.
My little niece Sydney: who made me feel like a beautiful bride when she saw me getting ready. She was mesmerized. We had some special moments over make up and hair curling.
Bobby Knowles: The man behind the curling iron. I got Bobbified!
Mary Jo, JoAnn, and Tommie (all my second moms): who baked pies, made appetizers, drove to Kinston to pick up flowers, etc. They are the dream team!
Jimmy’s Aunt Patty: Wedding Director and calm spirit.
Jimmy’s Aunt Jayme: Videographer and lots of laughs!
Elizabeth Cayton: Our photographer, who was so “with-it” and wonderful. I’ve only seen two of the photos so far, and I’m totally happy with her.
Emily Howson: for being a fully committed dancer! She rocked the reception.
There are so many more people to thank…..I may have to write a second list.
What they all gave us through their gifts and time was exactly what we wanted our wedding to be about–community and family. That’s what is important to Jimmy and I. “It was a regular barn raising!” as my Mama said.

Evaluates the risks to human health and the environment posed by the mining, refining, industrial use, and recycling of platinum and selected platinum compounds. Because of its exceptional catalytic properties, resistance to chemical corrosion, and high mechanical strength, platinum is widely used in the chemical and petroleum industries, most notably in the production of catalysts, including devices for reducing hazardous gas emissions. The growing use of catalytic converters to reduce pollution from automobile exhausts has caused a sharp increase in the world demand for this metal. Compounds such as cisplatin also have important therapeutic applications.

Drawing 187: Pillar Cove, Ennerdale
Direction of view: S
Notes: The viewpoint is a small knoll at the threshold of Pillar Cove (on the true left hand side of the Cove).
This view appears on page Pillar 14 in The Western Fells. The photograph from which this sketch was drawn is in the County Archives at Kendal, reference WDAW/4/1/1/1/25.
Comments: I first took this picture on 27th February 2019 (see 217 for an account of that day). It was a steep and tiring slog up into the Cove, but a hugely dramatic scene, with Pillar Rock towering above. Because it is such a steep, north-facing mountain slope, it will always be difficult to get a well-lit view of this composition.
Pillar Rock (then known as The Pillar Stone) was first climbed by John Atkinson, a local shepherd, on 9th July 1826, probably using a route now known as the Old West. Early stories of the rock inevitably include mention of the Rev James Jackson, a flamboyant character who climbed the steeple of his church, styled himself “Patriarch of the Pillarites”, and climbed the rock at the age of 79; later he apparently fell to his death in the area. In 1901, George Abraham led a route he called the New West Climb: described in later years by Walt Unsworth as one of the great classic routes of all time. Bill Cross and I climbed this route on 24th June 1995; neither of us would fancy it now!

Obama to GOP: End brinkmanship on budget, debt
Sunday - 9/22/2013, 8:34am EDT
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is appealing to the public anew to pressure Congress to stop undermining his health care law through measures that would threaten a government shutdown or a default on the government's debts.
In his Saturday radio and Internet address Obama makes it clear he would not accede to Republican efforts to defund the 2010 Affordable Care Act. Obama says, quote, "That's not happening. And they know it's not happening."
The House on Friday passed a stopgap spending bill through mid-December that cuts off money for the health care law. Later in the month, Congress must raise the nation's debt limit to avoid a first-ever default.
The Republican address was delivered by Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval. He calls for economic growth through leadership and bipartisan negotiation in Washington.

Tahoe Island Drive
The Tahoe Island Drive area is a desirable in-town neighborhood consisting of older and newer built homes, The neighborhood can be accessed from Hwy 50 by turning on 3rd Street or via 12th Street off of Hwy 89 (Emerald Bay Rd).
The homes along and just off of Tahoe Island Drive coming in from 3rd Street are mostly older but well kept homes. Tahoe Valley Elementary School is located right off of Tahoe Island Drive in this section.
The homes off of 12th Street are somewhat more desirable as this is a quieter section of the neighborhood. 12th Street ends on Tahoe Island Drive and this section then curves around Tahoe Island Drive and ends back on 12th Street. This curved section is the most desirable part, as the homes on one side back to a small Forest Service Strip of land that ends at the only natural lagoon on the back side of the Tahoe Keys. The lagoon is used for kayaking in summer and ice skating in winter when it freezes. The lagoon does not have access to the Lake.
There is a bike trail that parallels Highway 89 and leads to Pope beach, Baldwin beach, Kiva beach, Valhalla, Camp Richardson and Fallen Leaf lake. The neighborhood is close to all services, restaurants and shopping

The Syrian Kurds have lacked fundamental rights throughout the modern history of the Syrian Republic. During the ongoing civil war, Syrian Kurds have established some autonomy in the areas where they are in the majority.
The Kurds in Syria are more dispersed and less organized than the Kurds in Turkey and Iraq, countries located in Middle East according to holidaysort.com. Syria’s Kurds live mainly in the northern and northeastern parts of the country. Smaller groups have been there for many generations while others were incorporated when today’s Syria gained its borders after the First World War. Many Kurds fled to Syria to escape persecution in Turkey from the early 1920s until World War II. Before the civil war broke out in 2011, it was estimated that 8-9 percent of Syria’s inhabitants, or about two million, were Kurds.
All Syrians are officially counted as Arabs. For a long time, the existence of the Kurds was not recognized as an ethnic group. The Ba’ath party, which took power in Syria in 1963, wanted to unite all the Arabs into a single nation and introduced special laws that made it difficult for the Kurds. More than 100,000 Kurds were deprived of their Syrian citizenship and subsequently discriminated against in various ways. Kurds who lacked citizenship could not own real estate, marry, travel abroad or have formal employment. Kurdish was not allowed to be used as a language of instruction or in newspaper texts and books, and it was illegal to celebrate Kurdish holidays.
After the turn of the millennium, the number of stateless Syrian Kurds had grown to perhaps 300,000. After the unrest in 2004, the authorities promised that the stateless Kurds who were “real Syrians” would receive citizenship, but there were few concrete results.
In connection with the unrest that erupted in Syria in the Arab Spring of 2011, President Bashar al-Assad issued a decree granting citizenship to residents of the Hasaka region in eastern Syria. The decision concerned Kurds in particular, but in practice it is believed that only about 6,000 have actually been granted citizenship. Nevertheless, support among the Kurds for the revolt against the regime was relatively weak. The reasons were Kurdish distrust of the Sunni Arab majority and the Turkish government’s open support for the Syrian National Council, which spearheaded the uprising. The Syrian Kurds are already deeply suspicious of the Turkish state for its harsh treatment of the Kurds in Turkey.
As the uprising developed into an open civil war, the Syrian Kurds began to organize. In October 2011, eleven organizations joined the Kurdish National Council (in Kurdish abbreviation ENKS) which would work for Kurdish autonomy in the north and northeast. The model was the Kurdish regional government in Erbil in northern Iraq.
Alongside the ENKS, there was also the Democratic Union Party (PYD), which was formed in 2003. Its armed branch, the People’s Defense Units (YPG), is closely linked to the banned Turkish PKK movement.
ENKS and PYD entered into a formal collaboration in July 2012 in what was called the Kurdish Supreme Committee with a joint armed movement. According to the agreement, all areas conquered by the Kurds from the Syrian state would be administered jointly by ENKS and PYD. Over time, however, the PYD / YPG has come to dominate overall and is now the strongest organization with superior fighting power.
Under PYD’s leadership, the Kurds have achieved a high degree of autonomy in large parts of northern Syria. In 2014, the Kurds declared three autonomous cantons in the north and in March 2016, the Kurds announced that they had established a federal system, the “Northern Syrian Federation – Rojava”. Since then, the administration has opened representative offices in cities such as Moscow, Stockholm, Prague and Paris.
The Battle of Kobane
In September 2014, the Syrian Kurds were exposed to their most serious threat to date, when the extremist jhadi movement Islamic State (IS) launched a rapid offensive against the Kurdish territories. More than 60 villages were conquered in a short time and more than 160,000 Kurds fled into Turkey. However, the Kurdish militia offered strong opposition to IS in the border town of Kobane.
The battle of Kobane gained strong symbolic significance for the resistance against IS, which shocked the whole world with its brutality. The Turkish government was criticized for its unwillingness to support the Syrian Kurds, but under international pressure allowed the so-called Free Syrian Army and Kurdish forces from Iraq to reach Kobane via Turkish soil. American planes bombed IS positions around the city and dropped food and weapons on the encircled Kurds.
After four months of fighting, the Kurdish forces in January 2015 managed to drive IS out of Kobane and also retake villages in the area. In February 2015, Kurdish forces launched a months-long counter-offensive, which resulted in the expulsion of IS from the northern provinces of Hasaka and Raqqa. This meant that two of the three Kurdish cantons east of the Euphrates River could be united.

I feel unable to post about anything narrowboaty at all, sorry. My friend is in Jabaliya tonight, travelling in the ambulances to try and ensure their immunity from attack as the Israeli troops roll in. The presence of internationals sometimes acts as a form of protection but at night and out of sight of the cameras, anything goes. No wonder the Israeli government allowed foreigners to get out - you don't want a load of people telling it like it is to the outside world. My friend and others like her, have stayed to offer what protection they can and to give a voice to the beseiged people. As she said, if you only remember one statistic, it's that 50% of the population of Gaza are children. As well as the danger of being blown up, there's very little food left.

The city’s new industrial park beside the former Superior Electric Factory is “essentially complete,” said Mike Rivers, chairman of the Bristol Development Authority’s industrial committee.
One company has already bought a lot in the Southeast Bristol Industrial Park and another is likely to buy a second soon, officials said.
The combined industrial park has about a dozen lots, ranging from a little more than an acre in size to 11 acres.
Though there have been problems along the way, from a too-early start on construction that devastated protected wetlands to misaligned roads that had to be fixed, the most serious appear to be resolved.
The city has received complaints from neighboring condominium owners who would like to see a better buffer between the industrial park and their homes.
Ray Rogozinski, an assistant city engineer, said that some are concerned about young people using ATVs on the city-owned land and cutting through the condominiums. The condo owners have suggested a fence.
But Rivers said that a fence would be costly. He said that the city has complied with the promises it made about leaving a buffer between the park and the nearby residences.
Rogozinski said that the trees and bushes have been left in the buffer area, but are “a little thin” in appearance in spots. He said the city might be able to transplant some small trees to fill in the gaps a bit.
Officials said that the problems will likely cease once there are tenants to fill the industrial park.
“Once we get tenants in there, it will be different,” Rivers said.
The city will probably close off the new industrial park road until there is a need to open it, officials said, to help limit use of the property in the meantime.
Jonathan Rosenthal, the city’s economic development director, said he will ask the police to monitor the problem and issue warnings and tickets as required.
The first tenant in the new park will be CMI Specialty Products, which makes electro-magnetic iron products, and plans to begin constructing an 11,000-square-foot headquarters at the corner of Redstone Hill Road and Business Park Drive within days.
It paid $137,475 for the lot this summer.
Rosenthal said that it “looks pretty solid” that a second company will buy a lot soon.
There is a third firm eyeing the possibility of erecting a 55,000-square-foot building on the site, Rosenthal said, but it’s not a sure thing. It’s been talking with the city for two years, Rosenthal said.
The industrial park was built in two phases, each of them nearly finished.

Mobile GIS apps help municipalities access field data on mobile phones or tablet computers, granting immediate access to asset information instantly from anywhere. Quick access is especially important when urgent repairs are required, such as during a water main break.
Larson Design Group recently completed a project using a mobile GIS app for the Village of Addison, NY. The Village asked LDG to complete a sanitary sewer evaluation, part of which involved inspecting manholes to assess condition and determine whether stormwater was infiltrating into the system.
As LDG inspected each manhole, the company’s engineers uploaded data about the structure to a mapping app, enabling the client to click on the respective manhole icon on a map and have immediate access to photos, condition and other relevant information. The asset manage application provided amore efficient way to manage the system, make more informed decisions and prioritize repairs based on asset conditions.
As part of the evaluation, closed circuit television was used to inspect the sanitary sewer mains using a remote controlled camera. This resulted in a PDF data sheet for each section of the mains, which documented all observed defects along the length of the pipe section and the precise location and condition of each lateral connection. LDG linked the PDF to each section of main within the app so Village personnel can likewise find the online data sheet showing the pipe condition and the location of all lateral connections.
“The Village now uses the online viewer tool as record drawings for its collection system,” said Brad Sick, PE, design engineer in LDG’s Corning, NY office. “Whenever the Village has a maintenance issue or someone is working near their sewer lines — such as with gas service installation — the Village references the GIS app to better understand where the subsurface infrastructure is and what condition it’s in.”
LDG has also used GIS apps to track construction management. As the contractor uncovered buried manholes and raised them to grade, LDG took photos of each and tracked pay quantities (riser depth per manhole) with the app.
Looking ahead in 2018, LDG has helped the Village secure a Community Development Block Grant planning grant to study its water system. “We hope to map surface features such as hydrants, valves and service shutoffs; draw in mains; and collect data for assets such as hydrants,” said Sick. “The plan is to integrate the Village’s water and sewer infrastructure into a single app so its personnel can continue to use the online map of its water and sewer assets for maintenance, utility coordination and planning.”

Warner Chappell Production Music has opened two new recording studios – Sandtrack Sound in Nashville and SkyLight Studios in Los Angeles.
WCPM’s Sandtrack Sound is situated on Music Row in the more than 8,200+ square foot building originally known as Emerald Sound Studio and later, Benchmark Sound. Built in 1981 by pioneering acoustic designer Tom Hidley, it has been home to the creation of many Gold and Platinum albums, including releases by Johnny Cash, George Strait, Alabama, Brooks & Dunn, Foreigner, Bon Jovi, Olivia Newton-John, and more.
Sandtrack features three studios, the largest of which, Studio A, is capable of holding more than 30 musicians. Studio A, along with two additional control rooms, received substantial equipment upgrades, including a custom hybrid Avid S6/Tonelux 1628 console and microphone preamplifiers by Rupert Neve Designs.
“We’re thrilled to be working out of such a historic studio and using it to bring together Music City’s talented songwriters and musicians to record for Warner Chappell Production Music,” says SVP of Production, Aaron Gant, who oversees WCPM’s operations in Nashville. “Our team is extremely excited for the future.”

DNC Failed to Tell Anyone How to Vote For Gay Marriage - Gay Marriage - Gawker:
This should surprise no one but Obama's campaign organization, which has swallowed the DNC, failed to do any organizing for the Maine gay marriage vote, though it did email Maine volunteers asking them to make calls for Jon Corzine.
And then they lied about it to John Aravosis. (Sort of.) Which is just fucking stupid. It's one thing to not bother to support your gay constituency, it's another to insult them.


In the most recent version of SB Nation's Mock 2011 NFL Draft, they have the Baltimore Ravens selecting Ohio State defensive end Cameron Heyward. Heyward is 6'5", 288 pounds and would seem to be that prototypical pass rusher that the Ravens could use to complement Terrell Suggs as bookends for pass pressure.
Cameron is also the son of former NFL running back, Craig "Ironhead" Heyward, who played running back with the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons (among three other teams) and was known as much for his devastating running and blocking as he was for his size 8.75 hat size.
Check out the SB Nation story on Cameron Heyward here.
Here's what NFL Draft Scout says about Heyward.


Camera performance is a point of focus for smartphone makers, and one thing we have seen lately is a growing number of sensors being implemented into flagship handsets—as many as four rear cameras, in some instances. And of course smartphone makers are pushing higher megapixel counts. As it pertains to the latter, rumor has it Samsung's Galaxy S11
could end up with a 108-megapixel sensor.
That would be a gigantic jump in the number of pixels compared to the Galaxy S10+
, which wields a 16-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens, 12-megapixel wide-angle lens, and 12-megapixel telephoto lens for rear camera duties (along with a 10-megapixel front shooter for snapping selfies).
News of Samsung's potential plans comes from prominent leaker Ice Universe (@UniverseIce on Twitter), who has an excellent track record with this sort of thing. That said. this is not a foregone conclusion. Instead, Ice Universe states is "a high probability" the Galaxy S11 emerges with a 108MP camera sensor.
Will Samsung's 108MP ISOCELL Bright IMX Camera Sensor Find Its Way To The Galaxy S11?
It's not clear if that speculation is rooted in any inside information, or is simply based on Samsung
recently introducing its new ISOCELL Bright IMX
image sensor for smartphones, which can capture 1080 megapixels.
Samsung announced a 108-megapixel ISOCELL Bright HMX mobile camera sensor back in August
Samsung's new sensor is the first in mobile form to breach 100 million pixels. When Samsung announced the sensor back in August, the company said it would make its debut in an unnamed Xiaomi
handset before it finds its way into any Galaxy devices.
"For ISOCELL Bright HMX, Xiaomi and Samsung have worked closely together from the early conceptual stage to production that has resulted in a groundbreaking 108MP image sensor. We are very pleased that picture resolutions previously available only in a few top-tier DSLR cameras can now be designed into smartphones,” Lin Bin, co-founder and president of Xiaomi, said at the time.
The sensor is the first to adopt a large 1/1.33-inch size, allowing it to absorb more light than a smaller sensor. In theory, this should result in clearer photos in poor lighting, with less grain and noise mucking up images.
Assuming things went to plan, Samsung is already mass producing the sensor. Likewise, it's expected Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S11 in February 2020.

Letter: Raising concerns about the former Pilgrim nuclear plant's protected area
To the editor:
The Protected Area at Pilgrim now includes both the fenced area around the casks of spent nuclear fuel and key buildings. Holtec wants to shrink it to include only the spent fuel storage.
Why is this important? Because to have unescorted access to a Protected Area a worker must undergo an FBI background check and be subject to initial and random drug and alcohol tests. If the Protected Area is shrunk, the hundreds of workers decommissioning Pilgrim will not be subject to either. No background checks or tests equals no protection against bad guys.
More:Main emissions stack at Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station set to come down
A terrorist, or even a disgruntled employee working at Pilgrim, could use decommissioning equipment already there to damage storage casks and release radioactivity. Picture a bulldozer toppling an 18-foot tall cask, or blowing-up a cask or two with an explosive intended to take down a building. Each of Pilgrim’s 61 thin-walled casks contain ½ the total amount of Cesium-137 released at Chernobyl.
Want to feel less confident? Within the past two weeks, a Pilgrim security worker alleged that security at the plant is insufficient; and photos taken by two undeterred “uninvited guests” wandering around Pilgrim’s site were widely circulated.

This is the 2019 Jeep Wrangler Sport, the base spec version of the all-new JL Wrangler, which is available in the Middle East as of this month. It’s the model you’ll get if you’re only prepared to shell out the starting price of the new range – AED 132,000.
So if it’s base spec, is it a bit rubbish?
Absolutely not. This may be the entry-level car, but the amount of kit you get as standard is actually pretty good. In fact, we’re luckier in that regard in the Middle East – in America, Jeep’s home market, an entry-level Wrangler will get you an engine, a steering wheel, and some seats – and that’s it.
Okay, so what’s included?
Well, the new JL Wrangler really is all-new, so you get plenty in terms of exciting oily bits. In the Middle East, your only choice is an updated version of the 3.6-litre Pentastar V6, which here develops 284 bhp. That’s actually a little bit less than older model, but the JL is 91 kg lighter than its predecessor, meaning performance is pretty much identical. Fuel efficiency, meanwhile, is up to 15% better, so it’s smiles all round.
There are new suspension components, a new four-wheel-drive system, a new removable roof system, and removable doors. Basically, you don’t have to worry about the off-road stuff, because it’s all been iterated and improved upon compared to the last model. And plus, we haven’t driven it off road yet.
What’s it like on the road, then?
Miles better than the JK model. There’s a completely redesigned interior (more on that later), but the on-road drive goes further than that – it’s an admission by Jeep that customers want something a little more civilised these days. “Everyday freedom” is what Jeep calls it – i.e. the freedom to be able to pop to the shops without having your head done in by tyre roar or wind noise.
As a result, this new car is much less compromised on the road. In the Sport model, with normal road tyres, there’s barely any noise from the wheels at all. There’s still a bit of wind noise, but that’s been improved thanks to Jeep having slanted the windscreen at a bit more of an angle. The steering is weighty but feelsome, making it easy to place the car on the road. Really, in terms of refinement, it’s no worse than what you’d get in any mid-range Japanese family SUV.
What about that redesigned interior?
Form still very much follows function, but the difference with the JL Wrangler is that now it now offers a nice place in which to sit. Even the cloth seats on the Sport model are supportive and comfortable. Plus you get loads of kit as standard – there’s a seven-inch multi-touch display at the top of the centre console, a decent radio, and a reversing camera. All pretty standard stuff, these days, but these are unheard of on a Wrangler.
There’s more leg room for backseat passengers, too, and you don’t need a mechanical engineering degree to take the roof off anymore. Meanwhile, there are high-quality plastics, and even real bits of metal, dotted around the cabin, making for a reasonably inviting atmosphere – it’s much better than a Land Rover Defender, for example.
Okay, but will it still go off-road?
Oh yes. We’re taking the new Wrangler through some muddy trails tomorrow, and Jeep has assured us that it’ll take anything you can throw at it. Basically, this new Wrangler – even in base form – will still do what you want it do off-road, but now it’ll also do a bit of what you want on the road, too.

It’s a term most of us have never heard, but it’s currently trending on social media and news sites across the internet: Spirit Cooking. Within the past month, Wikileaks has released hacked e-mails from John Podesta, Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman. The recent batch of e-mails contained a message from performance artist Marina Abramović. If you are unfamiliar with her work, you can view it on her personal website HERE. In an email dated June 28, 2015, Abramović wrote:
“I am so looking forward to the Spirit Cooking dinner at my place. Do you think you will be able to let me know if your brother is joining? All my love, Marina.”
The e-mail was forwarded to John Podesta from his brother Tony. It’s unclear what exactly happens at this dinner dinner. Many right-wing news sources are accusing Podesta of involving himself in occult practices. These accusations are based on Abramović’s artwork, which has included self-harm, blood and other gory practices.
Here is a video of ‘Spirit Cooking’ as performed by Abramovic in 1997. At the end of the video, it states that it was pig’s blood use to paint the walls.
It’s not surprising that many would find painting with pig’s blood disturbing. The hashtag #spiritcooking has become a popular trend on Twitter with over 700,000 tweets. Many American’s are convinced that Clinton’s camp is involved in Satanism. Below are screenshots from the video of what was painted on the walls.
Abramović also released a book in 1996, titled, Spirit Cooking with Essential Aphrodisiac Recipes. The recipes include unconventional practices and ingredients, including urine, semen and breastmilk.
There is no evidence that Hillary Clinton attended this dinner or was even invited. It’s also unclear if Podesta accepted the invitation. To artists and those familiar with performance art, Abramović’s work is merely artistic expression and in no way Satanic practices. Whatever the truth, there’s no denying that ‘Spirit Cooking’ is having a negative impact on Clinton’s campaign for presidency.

Blood Test for Liver Function – Need to Know
The liver is the body’s biggest organ and on account of the enormous responsibility we people put on it, this essential organ ought to go through standard liver blood tests. As a blood channel, the liver should utilize our food consumption or at least, it changes we eat into substances the body’s expectation’s to appropriately function. However as the well-known axiom goes, an overdose of something that is otherwise good can be hurtful.
The U.S. Division of Farming’s Dietary Rules
Suggest that grown-ups get 20%-35% of their calories from fats. At any rate, we really want something like 10% of our calories to come from fat.
- Great Fats: Included here are fats like olive oil, canola oil, nuts like peanuts, almonds, pistachios and pecans. Avocados top the rundown of good vegetable fat sources. Monounsaturated fats (MUFAs) will bring down absolute cholesterol along with LDL cholesterol (the terrible cholesterol) while they increment the HDL cholesterol (the great cholesterol).
- Terrible Fats: The miscreants in this situation are the immersed fats, which will quite often raise complete blood cholesterol as well as LDL. The guideline hotspot for terrible fats is as you would anticipate: creature items like meat, eggs, dairy and fish. With respect to establish food, limit or take out your admission of coconut and palm oil.
Different elements keep our livers staying at work past 40 hours as well. In its work to keep our blood supply spotless and liberated from destructive substances, the liver is supposed to utilize the poisonous substances we guiltlessly consume and why not find out here https://prestigeer.com/services/labs/liver-function-testing. Numerous people realize that overabundance sugar in the eating routine will add to our waistlines so they make the plain stride by polishing off counterfeit sugars. The misrepresentation here is while the liver is distracted with using the aspartame in our eating routine beverages, the fats it does not find time to metabolize is put away as muscle to fat ratio. Unexpected is not it? Diet beverages might be the reason for some individuals’ weight-gain.
Liver Blood Tests:
A yearly actual assessment will incorporate broad blood tests trying to find any not-really clear health issues. The rundown of things shrouded in the blood testing for liver issues is an extensive one, however three of the most well-known signs of potential issues that frequently act as antecedents of liver sickness are basic phosphatase, egg whites and bilirubin. By and large most liver blood tests are utilized for the recognition of a potential physical issue or irritation to the liver. Your doctor will arrange these tests while requiring a normal health evaluating and assessment for stomach torment and the chance of liver sickness. Liver blood tests are commonly finished as a piece of an extensive metabolic board, which likewise incorporates your electrolyte levels and general kidney function. Liver catalysts are a result of typical liver function and are tracked down inside the liver cells.

My magpie instincts to desire shiny and sparkly things has dwindled since having MND. They fail to provide a rush of excitement anymore. My husband asked me what I would like for Christmas this year… The thing is, I don’t want or need any more materialistic objects. What I really really want, I probably won’t see in my life time; it still requires years of research and endless funding.
So what gives me a rush of excitement and joy nowadays? My family and friends of course! Interacting with others fulfills that rush of excitement and leaves me feeling elated and satisfied.
Paralysed inside my MND-ravished body, I have the opportunity to observe and analyse people like never before (maniacal laugh, bwahahahahaha!). I no longer blend in to a crowd; I attract attention whether I like it or not. But how people react to me is fascinating: It’s either really positive or awful. The people who react positively are far more interesting because they are rare. They have the ability to see beyond my “differences” and make that human connection. I have thought about it a lot and I believe they have a higher aptitude for emotional intelligence.
So how do you know if someone has a high level of emotional intelligence? Well… you will feel it before you realise it. Emotionally intelligent people handle every interaction with kindness and empathy, thus creating positive situations wherever they go.
Being on the receiving end of kindness from a stranger is especially heart warming and will certainly make your day. For me they have left a lasting impact…
* For the person who stops in their tracks and shames others in to stopping too just to give me the red carpet treatment when I pass by them.
* For the waiting staff who welcome me, in my big and bulky wheelchair and make no deal about moving half the restaurant around to make sure I get a suitable table.
* For the salesperson who wrote a note and placed it within my purchase just to tell me they really enjoyed interacting with me.
* For the person who heard my story and brought their award-winning restaurant to my home.
Thank you for teaching me that kindness is truly the highest form of wisdom.
This Christmas and New Year use your emotional intelligence for every encounter. This way you’re giving people something money can’t buy and will be remembered way beyond Christmas Day. Spread copious amounts of kindness on your family, friends and more importantly random strangers. The world is crying out for kindness and empathy like never before. Give it a go and see what happens.
For Finn, the bravest young warrior I ever knew.

Creative Die Mold: Serving the Plastic Injection Mold Industry
When Creative Die Mold was started back in 1978, the mold building trade looked a bit different than it does today. Creative was just a little contract shop on the outskirts of Chicago, in the up-and-coming industrial suburb of Franklin Park. Back then, contract shops were all that were around.
In the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, when the industry was booming, there were mold shops on every street corner. Tool makers could leave one shop, pack up their tools and roll their tool box a few buildings over to find another job with more work and better pay. That is not the case anymore! Today, fewer shops exist—and in a more competitive global market, only the strongest survive.
Creative Die Mold has stood the test of time. With a firm foundation of well-developed customer relationships, strong core values, and happy employees eager to work, we have been able to make it through some of our industry’s darkest days. We have always stood on what we believe in, and here we are, 40 years later a 26,000 square foot, advanced facility, employing over 50 highly-skilled and motivated workers.
Our goal is, and always has been, to provide our customers with such a positive experience, it would be unthinkable to take their projects elsewhere. Here at Creative, we are involved with every project, from design to sampling. Our engineering staff works with each customer, personally dealing with all of their concerns directly—no middle man.
Once the project is approved, the real work begins. All work is kept in-house, in our departments, all under the same roof. From Engineering, to mold base, to polishing and final assembly, everything is done here. This allows us to be in constant contact with each other—and you, our customer—throughout the process, while also enabling us to run at peak efficiency. So much of today’s mold building process centers on “lights out” machining and quick turnaround time. By keeping up with the latest technology we have been able to meet and exceed our customers’ needs, without sacrificing quality.
The industry has evolved, and with it, so has Creative. No longer are we that little contract shop in Franklin Park. We are now a ultramodern facility located in beautiful Glendale Heights IL, where we have been since our move here in October of 1989. We can be easily accessed via Chicago’s, O’hare and Midway airports. For local customers, by vehicle, we are located close to I355 and North Ave.
Getting here is the easy part. Once you are here you will understand what sets Creative Die Mold apart from its competition. We look forward to being your plastic injection tool provider.
