BOSTON - DraftKings, Inc., a leading skill-based daily fantasy sports destination, today announced the company has been granted a license to operate in the United Kingdom and will open its third office, in London, by the end of 2015. DraftKings expects to be operational in the UK in the fourth quarter, with launches in additional markets, including Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America, planned for 2016.
DFS911.com has two very solid pitcher choices for your Monday Daily Fantasy Sports roster. That would be Baltimore’s Chris Tillman and Houston’s Scott Kazmir.
Tillman has allowed a mere 13 hits off of 75 at bats versus Oakland current batters. Kazmie has permitted 13 hits off of 68. Between both starting pitchers with 143 at bats only five homeruns have been allowed.
Detroit’s Justin Verlander will be on the road Saturday against a Houston team he maintains a .145 ERA against. That’s 9 hits permitted in 62 at bats. Only one of those was a homerun.
For gamblers we have a situation where Detroit is a +136 underdog. The total for this game was set at 8.
Verlander is just 1-5 on the season so you’ll get him for a great price.
The Cleveland Indians Corey Kluber holds a .190 ERA versus the Minnesota Twins current batters. This has translated into a mere 30 hits in 158 at bats with just three homeruns.
Kluber you will get cheap due in part to a 7-12 record on the season. He also has a 3.46 ERA.
Kluber was excellent in Sunday's start, striking out 10 and walking just one while holding the Twins to one run in a complete game victory.
Brian Dozier only has 3 hits in 28 at bats against Kluber.

MONTREAL –Amaya Inc. (TSX: AYA, NASDAQ: AYA) (“Amaya” or the “Corporation”) today announced that it has acquired Victiv (www.victiv.com), an Austin, Texas based daily fantasy sports (“DFS”) site that offers players the opportunity to build a roster of their favorite sports stars and compete for the chance to win real money.
DraftKings, one of the leading Daily Fantasy Sports sites, was offering a number of PGA Championship Daily Fantasy Golf contests, many of which featured top cash prizes.
The granddaddy of them all is the $3.3M Fantasy Golf Millionaire Maker! Draft up to 100 lineups for only $20 each for a shot to win the $1M top prize on August 13th. The contest was capped off at 188,900 with anything greater than 45840th cashing out. The 2nd place finish is not too shabby either, paying out $100,000.00.
The Chicago White Sox John Danks has allowed just 21 hits off of 89 at bats versus LA Angels batters, translating into a .236 ERA.
For gamblers, Chicago is a +105 underdog, so there is certainly value when one considers his past success against this team.
Danks is just 6-9 on the season so you’ll get him at a good price.
He took the loss on Friday against the Royals, conceding three runs on five hits and three walks in six innings. He tossed six strikeouts in the defeat.

Golf.com on Monday published its Daily Fantasy Golf PGA Championship primer ahead of this week’s big event that has the DFS and gambling sites alike abuzz with action.
DraftKings.com features its Millionaire Maker PGA Championship contest where an individual can turn $20 into $1 million.
The PGA Championship first round will begin at 7:45 a.m. ET on Thursday. Whistling Straits is located in the Central Time Zone.
The New York Post this weekend blasted the Daily Fantasy Sports industry along with the professional sports leagues for “ripping off fans”.
In his scathing rebuke of the sector, Phil Mushnick writes:
Dribble is the latest entry into the Daily Fantasy Sports sector with a mobile-first app built for UK Premiere League fans and fantasy players.
“It brings players the easiest way to craft dream squads and to see how they measure up against friends and random opponents,” the site claims.
Users bounce back and forth via push notifications with their opponents to choose 5 athletes.
They can then follow their athlete's performance and scores right on the phone as they enjoy watching the fixtures. The team with the most points at the end wins.
When selecting a starting pitcher for your Sunday MLB Daily Fantasy roster, consider Bartolo Colon.
He’s priced at just $7.4K at DraftKings coming into this one. Colon has allowed a mere 11 hits off of 60 at bats. Only one of those was a homer with an ERA of .183.
Colon is 10-10 on the season with a 4.72 ERA. He dominated the Marlins on Monday, as he allowed just one run on seven hits and no walks over eight innings. He struck out five.
FantasyUp.com, offering an unsustainable ‘no rake’ business model for a relatively small site with limited funds, has begun to slow pay its customers.
RotoGrinders member sethayates offered this in regard to said complaints:
CBS Sports announced their entry into the Daily Fantasy Sports arena and could prove to be yet another competitor to the likes of DraftKings and FanDuel.
The powerful media company, flush with cash, can afford to offer something most others can not: rake-free contests.
Reportedly, CBS Sports through its Sportsline Fantasy site, plans to do so up until the start of NFL season.
CBS’ DFS Director Grant Griffin tweeted this week that they were not planning on featuring rake any time soon.
The Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana has been fantastic versus opposing batters of the Cleveland Indians. He’s allowed a mere 14 hits off of 75 at bats. Three of those have been homeruns. His ERA versus Cleveland was at .187.
His record this season is 2-2 with a 3.89 ERA. You’ll find him at a pretty good price as a result.
Three of six starts had Santana pitching beyond seven innings and only allowing a total of two runs over that period. He has had two bad outings in his only six starts of 2015.
Does it make sense to have John Danks on your Daily Fantasy MLB roster today? Probably.
He has maintained an impressive .185 ERA versus the opposing Kansas City Royals batters, allowing just 40 hits on 216 at bats with three homeruns over that time period. That’s a lot of history to absorb to help us understand just how solid Danks has been against this opposition.
It won’t cost much to choose Danks being that he is just 6-8 on the season and hasn’t made it beyond the 6th inning in half of his last six starts.
You will want to be all over Zach Greinke on Thursday. He has allowed a measly 8 hits off of 61 at bats against Phillies batters with just one homerun.
Greinke will come with a high price tag thanks to his 1.41 ERA and only two losses on the season.
The Dodgers starter hasn’t allowed more than two runs in his last ten starts, even going a stretch of six with zero runs allowed.
He went eight strong innings Friday, allowing two runs on five hits in a 5-3 win over the Angels. He also struck out eight.

(Reuters) Mike Petta played Internet poker until 2011, when most U.S. poker websites were shut down. Last year, the 31-year-old father of two quit his job as an accountant to play fantasy sports full time, spending thousands of dollars a night entering fantasy sports contests. Now, the gambling industry wants him back.
Chris Sale of the White Sox makes for an excellent Daily Fantasy MLB play today. Against Rays batters, Sale has allowed just 11 hits off of 60 at bats. Two of those were homeruns. Sale will also be pitching at home Tuesday.
So far on the season Sale is 9-6 with a 3.20 ERA. He struggled Thursday, allowing seven runs on 12 hits, a walk and two hit batsmen in just five innings, though he still struck out seven. Expect a nice bounce back here.
"There's going to be a lot of really interesting and cool things we can do to integrate with the actual live sporting experience," Robins said in a recent interview with CNBC's "Power Lunch."
Robins, who will be appearing at this week’s first ever Daily Fantasy Sports Expo in Miami Beach, added: "When people play Draft Kings' fantasy products they tend to watch more games, they tend to be more into the statistics and doing research on the games.
Not only has Atlanta Braves starter Julio Teheran been solid versus the Philadelphia Phillies current roster, the Braves come into this game as just a -126 road favorite.
Daily Fantasy MLB players will want to have Teheran as part of their lineup. He’s managed to allow just 16 hits in 85 at bats against this Phillies squad. Only three homeruns have been given up as part of that stretch.
Looking for a solid starting pitcher for Saturday? The Colorado Rockies Jorge De La Rosa is an excellent choice, allowing just 21 hits off of 99 at bats. Four of those were homeruns but that is a very low number under the circumstances.
What’s great here is that Colorado was coming in as a +159 underdog for those looking to bet this game.
De La Rosa has a rather high ERA or 5.03 despite the 6-4 winning record. Six of his last ten starts have resulted in two or fewer runs however.
The Angels Albert Pujols will attempt to improve his 9 for 20 at bats record versus Dodgers starter Clayton Kershaw Friday.
Pujols, who has hits in eight of his last ten games, holds a .450 ERA against Kershaw that includes four extra base runs.
Kershaw will start Friday against the Angels, coming off the DL with an injured hip. He has not allowed a single run in his last 26 innings started. He has permitted 14 hits over that period.
Pujols will come into this game priced around $4100.

"FANDUEL DAILY," hosted by SIRIUSXM and FANTASY ALARM's JEFF MANS and FANDUEL's JOE PISAPIA, will air weekdays 5-6p (ET) starting MONDAY.
“SIRIUSXM FANTASY SPORTS RADIO has established itself as the leading broadcaster for fantasy sports insight and advice and we will continue to be the premier on-air destination for the millions of fans now drawn to daily fantasy games,” said SIRIUSXM SVP of Sports Programming STEVE COHEN.
The San Diego Padres starting pitcher Ian Kennedy maintains a .198 ERA versus opposing batters of the Miami Marlins, making him an excellent play for your Friday Daily Fantasy Baseball (July 31).
Over this time he has allowed just 18 hits in 91 at bats, only one of those being a homerun.
Kennedy (6-9) beat the Marlins with six innings of one-run ball Saturday. He struck out seven while scattering seven hits and one walk.
Two of the best picks for Daily Fantasy MLB July 30 will be Atlanta’s Shelby Miller or Philadelphia’s Aaron Harang, both of which have ERAs of .207 and .208 against Thursday’s opposing rosters, respectively.
Harang you should be able to get cheap around $6500. Miller will cost you significantly more at between $9000 and $9500.
Harang has permitted just 20 hits on 96 at bats versus the Braves batters. Miller has allowed 20 off of 94. Between the two starters, only five homeruns have been hit, three of which were off the more expensive pitcher.

In less than a year Labebe has established itself as one of the area’s best destinations for the finest Mediterranean cuisine. Diners know they will enjoy the freshest spices, produce, and meats that are the heart of the region’s dishes. Family-run, Labebe places the same emphasis on the quality of the ingredients that go into their recipes that generations before used in their mountain village in Lebanon. Dishes are prepared fresh each day, and guests enjoy recipes that have been handed down with loving care.
A new bonus for diners is outdoor seating on the soon to be completed second floor patio. This will be the perfect spot for al fresco dining on soft summer nights, a very Mediterranean tradition. The patio will have room for up to 30 people.
Also new is the expanded Happy Hour, which will now be Sunday to Friday from noon to 7 p.m. Select wines from the regions around the Mediterranean will be offered for half price, a perfect opportunity to stretch your palate and experience wines that are not your ordinary chardonnay. Specialty cocktails and half-price beers are also on offer. Be sure to check out the appetizer specials as well. Labebe’s famous grilled octopus will definitely be on the Happy Hour menu as will mussels and the duck confit, among other dishes.
A creative enhancement to the regular menu are specials that highlight the cuisine of the various countries which surround the entire Mediterranean. Each weekend will concentrate on a different country. French and Spanish dishes are just a couple of the areas that will be featured. Give your tastebuds a tour of the Med.
Be sure to keep an eye out for Labebe’s announcement about its upcoming live entertainment. Soon music will resound on Fridays and Saturdays after the dinner hours.
The venue still boasts two separate rooms perfect for business, civic meetings, or personal celebrations with plenty of room and privacy. The main dining room has a chic modern decor of rich browns, creams, and the sparkle of sleek mosaic walls. The tables are well spaced and large enough to accommodate the myriad dishes that entice you.
The menu is comprehensive but not so large that each dish cannot be created fresh. For diners who have experienced the cuisine of the region on their travels, dinner at Labebe will transport them back to the jasmine scented hills. This is the menu to expand your tastes and explore authentic, traditional dishes. Favorites such as kebabs, pasta, and steak are also expertly prepared. No matter your preference, the helpful staff will guide you through the variety of choices.
Dessert is a must. Feathery light tiramisu and the equally light asmaliye with its hints of orange blossoms are perfect endings to the meal. Heartier appetites can indulge in a sinful chocolate lava cake. And who could resist real baklava?
The bar still boasts the best Lebanese wines of the Bekaa Valley, bearing the scent of ripe berries. The full menu and a bar menu is available at the bar as well. Labebe is open Monday through Thursday from noon to 10 p.m.; Friday and Saturday from noon to 11 p.m.; and Sunday noon to 9 p.m. They will happily cater your next event as well.

Widening and repaving of South Lakeside Drive will begin this spring without any long-term borrowing.
In addition to repaving, the merge lane from Hodgson Road will be extended to Pioneer Drive, and a pedestrian/bike lane will be added from Hodgson Road to the Seventh Day Adventist School.
The bulk of the funding for the project comes from the Pavement Management Plan Reserve, the Capital Reserve, and Community Works Funds.
“Council has been planning for this project for a couple of years, saving money so we could do the project without borrowing and adding to the City’s debt,” says Mayor Kerry Cook.
“We’re proud that now, as the result of strategic planning in our budgets, we are able to complete this project and keep spending within our means. Not only will we be able to repair the road surface, but we will be able to increase safety at two key intersections, and add a lane for those on foot and bikes.”
The city has issued an invitation to tender on the project, and it is anticipated construction will begin in June. The City will issue updates on the project as it proceeds.

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. (FOX 11) - Authorities located and arrested an inmate who escaped from the West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga on Thursday.
The San Bernardino Sheriff's Department said 19-year-old Mario Abraham Tafoya was located and arrested at his residence in San Bernardino around 5:30 a.m. Friday.
Tafoya had escaped from the detention center around 3:22 p.m.Thursday. He was seen running in a north-east direction from the detention center in the area of Etiwanda Avenue and 6th Street shortly thereafter.
Several law enforcement agencies, including the Rancho Cucamonga Police Department, San Bernardino Sheriff's Aviation, and K-9 teams assisted in the search.
Authorities released his image on Thursday, alerting the public that he was to be considered dangerous and the public should not approach him or contact him.
Tafoya was arrested back on Jan. 31, 2019 for assault with a deadly weapon and evading police and disregard for public safety. He will be subsequently charged for the escape.


Thermaltake Offering a Variety of Solutions Ready for Intel LGA1156 Processors
Thermaltake, leading thermal solutions provider, is introducing several advanced cooling solutions for the new and upcoming Intel LGA1156 processors, ensuring users have the best choice right from day one.
The brand new Silent 1156 CPU cooler from Thermaltake is specifically designed for Intel Socket 1156 processors. Installation to the motherboard is easily done with a convenient push-pin mechanism, which for the user is an entirely tool-free procedure. For its silent operation, the 9 cm PWM fan is a treat to the users' ears. Through the PWM function the fan speed is automatically adjusted between 800 RPM to 1700 RPM according to the actual work load of the CPU. Furthermore, the side flow design makes the cooler's air flow an integral part of the overall system air flow inside the chassis. With two 8 mm heatpipes and a mirror copper base heat is transferred away from the CPU to the aluminum fins, dramatically reducing heat development.
In addition the award winning SpinQ and ISGC series of CPU coolers will be getting an upgrade to also support LGA1156 processors. The ISGC series is particularly catering to users who are concerned about noise and are looking for silent solutions, while the SpinQ cooler ideally combines aesthetics with performance.
When the Intel socket LGA1156 processors are launched, Thermaltake coolers will be readily available for early adapters seeking for the best CPU cooling solution out there.

With summer rapidly approaching, it’s time to swap winter coats for tank tops, boots for sandals, indoor gyms for the great outdoors – and, hopefully, those padded winter bodies for svelte, summer physiques. To make the most out of summer, explore new ways to be active and get fit, while sidestepping injury and sun damage. Here are five ways to have fun in the sun.
1. Pour, Then Slather: Consider this a two-for-one deal: While staying hydrated protects you from the inside (and offers surprising health benefits), the right sunscreen keeps you safe on the outside – cutting your risk of skin cancer, of course, and also preventing premature aging.
2. Try Something New: There are many outdoor sports that can get your heart pumping, but some are easier on your body than others. Cycling offers a great combination of benefits: It’s a terrific workout for your heart and the muscles in your lower half, but it doesn’t stress your knees. Check out Sharecare’s Cycling Center for tools and tips that can help you get the most out of the activity. If cycling isn’t your thing, golf might be a perfect way to enjoy the summer sun. And don’t think you’re just heading out for a stroll on the greens – taking up golf can be a great way to condition your body. In this video, Sharecare Fitness Expert, Ted Townes, explains how to get into the swing of things. Or just lace up your sneakers and head out the door, with help from Sharecare’s Walking Center.
3. Injury-Proof Your Summer: Good weather doesn’t last forever – don’t waste a minute cooped up with a sprain, strain or worse. Before you jump into your favorite sport, take our quiz to learn the keys to staying injury-free.
5. Refresh Yourself: After a hard day of play, you’re going to be hungry – so take advantage of summer-ripe fruit to nourish your skin and keep it healthy and glowing. Find out which fruits have special anti-aging benefits here, then learn how to power up your summer salad so it provides extra nutritional oomph for fewer calories.

2020 has been marked irrevocably by two viruses — COVID-19 and global anti-blackness — both with no clear vaccine in sight, but perhaps as Black Lives Matter becomes less of a controversial statement and more a call to action, we can as a society begin to map out a way forward. EURO 2020 was meant to have started on Friday 12th June 2020, with England’s first game v. Croatia kicking off on Sunday 14th June; instead it has been postponed along with everything else and we were left inside with no distractions but to address the imbalance in our communities.
Expectations for success at upcoming tournaments are at an all-time high and public sentiment, while ever in flux, is more positive than not. For the first time in a while, there’s more than a whisper of hope. When asked how current players match to those in ’90 and ’96, manager Gareth Southgate chooses to side-step nostalgia, “I think those teams were a little bit further ahead than us currently in terms of quality of players, certainly in bedding down some of the positions and with a regular captain.” And focuses on development, “I think our team is coming, our group is showing more maturity. Lots of them have shown that during this lockdown. . . . I think we have an opportunity.”
Hope springs and challenges are risen to, not only in football but outside of it — Raheem Sterling, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho have been very out-spoken in their support for the Black Lives Matter movement. “You have got a generation of players who recognise their platform and they know their voice carries weight.” Southgate said, “They see the power in that, and young people see the power in being able to get their voices heard — as we have seen in the last week in the most powerful and most important of messages.” But with speaking out has come scrutiny, with scrutiny comes pressure and this pressure falls unevenly on the shoulders of black players who are questioned the most. This reveals a degree of complacency toward non-black players and within the structure of the football industry.
Sterling on Newsnight spoke at length on the need for the representation of black people within the structure of the football industry, not only at the executive level but at coaching level and throughout. Statements in support of Black Lives Matter from different organisations abound, but there has been no structural change, no real commitment. In many ways the implication of the silence from decision-makers and higher profile non-black players is that this is an issue to which can be paid lip service but not one that requires immediate action.
What is apparent to me is that all the protests and the marches are more powerful when there is a complete mixed group of society taking a stand, because it can’t just be black people who are speaking and making the point. In the end, it needs a united approach to be able to make change and give everybody the opportunity to enforce change. So, I would feel a responsibility both with my experiences but also in the position I’m in, my voice carries weight, I know that. I have an opportunity to influence people and I have to use that responsibly.
Though Southgate feels a personal responsibility, can make some change within his position and utilise his voice, his reach is limited. Collective effort is needed, a structural upheaval is demanded. Measures to protect black players and fans need to be taken more seriously and silence or deflection when it comes to addressing links between football fans and white supremacist organisations needs to end.
Southgate’s clear that there is a need for greater involvement across the board. “I think for some of the decisions that need to be made, we need to affect white people. And sometimes black voices will be able to make the difference and other times they won’t. So, it’s got to be a combined effort, to be able to make the change and to be able to influence change.”
Sadly, it is evident that a sense of responsibility is not enough, individual black players taking a stand is not enough, organisations posting symbolic support is not enough. So, what does concrete commitment look like, what does accountability look like and what does change in the face of hope look like? The Black Collective of Media in Sport has set out a seven-point plan in an open letter sent to leading print and broadcast outlets. This plan has been backed by a mixture of players, administrators and journalists across various outlets.
It reads, “This last few weeks have brought an exhausting and overwhelming sense of frustration, grief and sadness, following the violent death of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Aubrey. Although these incidents occurred in the USA, the systemic racism that enables tragedies like this to occur also exists in the UK”.
For UK Sports, this has been the clearest mandate. It does away with platitudes, empty words and symbolic support and requests tangible change, something that can be measured, something that requires investment from those with the power to affect change. If the industry must radically change, for us to move forward, for hope to spring into something concrete and for the sacrifices of all those that came before, those who educated themselves, those who were effectively silenced to mean something, then this is a start.
For Gareth Southgate, his team and football in general — they must reach for something beyond symbols, hashtags and the right soundbites. It appears that there has to be an element of hope and aspiration to something more off the field, with an actual commitment to care about black lives in the sport in a way that lasts far beyond a brief statement or moment of interest. It appears we’re on the cusp of a moment. But it’s also clear that this moment needs a push. It needs us all to take a stand to take it all the way forward.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer and third leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. While relatively rare in the US, HCC incidence is rising dramatically and becoming a growing concern. The primary risk factors for HCC in western countries are hepatitis C virus infection, excessive alcohol consumption, and obesity-associated Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD); a major reason for the rise of HCC in the US is the increase in obesity. HCC is also one of the most lethal cancers, with 5-year survival rates of 5-8%, due, in part, to the late stages of diagnosis. Thus, an improved understanding of HCC development and additional HCC biomarkers are needed to combat this increasingly important cancer. .

Substantially All the Assets
This portion of the introduction to the basic principles of United States federal income taxation of corporate acquisitions is part of the Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP Tax Page, a World Wide Web demonstration project. Comments are welcome on the design or content of this material.
The information presented is only of a general nature, intended simply as background material, is current only as of the latest revision date, October 15, 2007, omits many details and special rules and cannot be regarded as legal or tax advice.
"Substantially all the assets" of a target corporation (often referred to as the "substantially all test") is not defined in the Internal Revenue Code reorganization provisions. Rather, the concept has evolved through judicial decisions and IRS rulings and practice.
For advance ruling purposes, the IRS defines substantially all the assets of Target as assets having a fair market value of:
At least 70% of the fair market value of all of Target's assets without regard to liabilities.
Case law suggests that smaller percentages of the target corporation's total assets can constitute substantially all of its assets. The courts tend to give greater weight to operating, as opposed to passive investment, assets in evaluating compliance with the substantially all test.

Mikrokosmos is a collaboration between composer Justin Hicks and artist Steffani Jemison. The first of the two long pieces presented on their sole LP, “Tutorial,” shatters Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson’s “We Almost Lost Detroit” into infuriatingly tiny shards that appear and vanish in a breath. Sounds repeat and accumulate, shifting between samples and yearning performances by a band and chorus led by Hicks and Jemison. The gap between the original and the new performances, the feeling of being baited, the regular return to silence, all works towards what the artists describe as “articulating revolutionary melancholy.” It is a difficult listen, but it is a literal tutorial, providing the tools for unraveling, for understanding the project. The B side, “Another time, this time, one time” is a richer presentation of voices. There is again a sense of learning, of developing an ear for the language being spoken in real time, but “Another Time” is much more generous than “Tutorial.” Ultimately the two rely heavily on each other, creating an unexpected, elastic desire to flip the LP again and again.
Released August 2020. Edition of 500 copies.

Learn more about Eastern Asian Countries and What they want in Gentlemen
Asia is a vast continent with many different nations. Some nations, including China and Korea, have industrialized. Others are still coming into being. And some are little more old-fashioned, like Thailand and the Philippines. It http://gattoedilizia.altervista.org/2023/01/05/latino-matchmaker/ is critical to comprehend the past of these countries and how it has influenced their tradition immediately. It is crucial to take the time to learn more about Asian girls and what they look for in guys because they are very different from their Eastern counterparts in many ways.
The eastern Asiatic nations are a part of the most populous region in the world and are home to China, the second-largest economy. Additionally, they are the apartment of some smaller countries, including Mongolia, Japan, North and south korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and many others. The region is home to numerous mountains and rivers, as well as a wide range of climatic conditions.
With a population of over 1.4 billion, China is the most populous nation in the world. Numerous lush sandy plains that were once densely populated by first individual settlements and agricultural civilizations can be found throughout this vast region. The history and development of the complex and powerful claims, kingdoms, and civilizations that grew in China over the millennia have been shaped by the country’s vast contrasts and many regional, geological, as well as genetic features.
The vast arid areas of eastern China, which are dominated by the Gobi Desert, are among the most noteworthy. While the southern coastal regions of the nation have a more moderate subtropical type A environment, the country’s northern regions experience colder sort D temperatures similar to those of North Dakota.
In addition to the various regions, the geological variations in southeast Asian nations produce a wide range of customs and cuisines. The cultures of neighboring nations like Vietnam and Malaysia have a significant effect on China’s key industrial locations, like as Shanghai, Beijing, and Tianjin. The cuisine and customs of Hong Kong, a former British settlement that was ceded to Chinese rule thai mail order wives after World war ii, even have significant influence on the places of the Chinese peninsula.
There has been an increase in the number of people who are choosing to get married later in recent years. In China, where the average adult union time has increased from 15 to 18 years in southern Asia to 24 or older in east Asia, this trend is particularly pronounced. This is partially due to the Chinese government’s encouragement of postponed marriages for financial reasons. However, it is also because of shifting cultural sentiments that are causing women to put off getting married and because youth subcultures are becoming more common and pushing the limits of cultural conventions. The demography of the nation’s union business have changed significantly as a result.

A taste of Italy in the United States. That’s what you get when you sit behind the wheel of a FIAT 500, and it’s also what you get when you step into the neighborhood known in many cities as “Little Italy.” When we’re feeling a bit homesick or just need to get our chicken saltimbocca fix, a city’s Little Italy neighborhood calls to us. We’ve developed a finely tuned ability to sniff out these hidden gems, and we figured, “Why not bring you along?”
We plan to search out these havens, tucked away across the country, and bring you along for the ride. Come spend a day with us and our FIAT 500 in our latest Little Italy destination: San Diego.
When most people think of San Diego, a few things come to mind—but no, we were not in San Diego for the weather, the palm trees, or the fish tacos. We had heard a rumor that tucked just off the shoreline was one of the most unique and historic Little Italy neighborhoods in the country. We knew that we needed to check it out for ourselves.
First of all, how can you go wrong when the western edge of San Diego’s Little Italy has a name like Grape Street? As soon as we arrived at the corner of Grape and India streets, we felt right at home. Green, white and red were everywhere we looked, and the sound of an accordion sailed high over the hum of people chatting on the numerous outdoor patios. Shopkeepers and restaurant owners were all making their final preparations for the lunch crowds, and our FIAT 500 was getting plenty of attention from passersby.
It was no mistake that we were here on a Saturday afternoon. Every Saturday in Little Italy
, the Mercato Farmers Market
welcomes more than 150 booths and vendors to line Date Street all the way down to Amici Park. As we strolled through the farmers market, we were greeted by the aptly named Smilin’ Jack. Jack was happy, funny, and a master at the one-man-band setup that he had arranged on the corner. He posed for pictures, took requests, and sang to every pretty woman who passed him by. Take a minute to look at the picture below. At this point, if Smilin’ Jack was welcoming you to the Mercato Farmers Market, wouldn’t you know that you were about to have a good time? We thought so too.
After walking, sampling, and smelling for six blocks, our anticipation for some of Little Italy’s food offerings was reaching a fever pitch. We were on the lookout for a restaurant that met three basic criteria – 1) a patio, 2) a view of the water (we were in San Diego after all, and 3) no frills, traditional Italian dishes. On our way back to India Street, we passed more street musicians and many four-legged friends who were out with their owners, enjoying the day. We were swiftly realizing why people had raved so passionately to us about this neighborhood. We quickly feel like we were in a world separate from the rest of downtown San Diego.
We sampled three restaurants, hoping to find a little bit for everyone.
Traditional Italian Fare – Zia’s Bistro
We were on the lookout for a restaurant with a patio, a view of the water (we were in San Diego, after all), and no-frills, traditional Italian dishes. If your criteria matches up with what we were looking for, then Zia’s Bistro
may be the perfect fit for you.
Although there was no ocean in sight, Zia’s outdoor seating is right next the pavillion that houses one of our favorite fountains, and it provided a great place to watch passersby as we kicked up our feet. We decided to order the vongole and were not disappointed when we tasted the clams. They became the star of our meal. One of the things that San Diego’s Little Italy has going for it is its proximity to the ocean and fresh seafood. If seafood is not your favorite, no worries—others around us were enjoying the imbottiti, which features eggplant wrapped around pasta with ricotta cheese and pesto.
Pizza – Napizza
allowed us to check a few things off our list. We wanted to see what San Diego’s Little Italy had to offer in terms of a fresh take on Italian cuisine, and we wanted to enjoy some of the pizza that we can’t seem to find at home. Thanks to a slow approach to preparation (72 hours must pass while their homemade dough rises) and a healthy obsession with quality ingredients, the pizza that comes out of their kitchen tastes like little else in the world. Locals were quick to point out that this was not simply pizza that we were enjoying; rather, it was pizza al taglio, a style that comes from Italian street food. Our choice? Truffle Porcini. The earthy-tasting mushrooms and the truffle cream coming together is a taste we may come back for…a few dozen times.
Hidden Gem Suggested by Locals – Pete’s Quality Meat
This is the kind of place we love. A unique address (1742 ½), a menu with only five items, and every other person that we talk to recommends it. We passed it a few times before finally finding it, tucked away on India Street. Pete’s is famous for its sandwiches, which is good, because it’s just about all they serve. For our money, the homemade Italian sausage is the way to go. They were grilling it when we walked in, and offered us a sample. This was no mistake; they knew that once we tried it, we were putty in their hands. One taste and we were sold. We even bought some to bring home with us, but it didn’t make it past dinnertime, when we were ready for more.
Is there a Little Italy that we should try next? Is there something that we missed here in San Diego? Let us know in the comments below.

PBI-Guatemala accompanies march calling for Mayan Q’eqchi’ defender Bernardo Caal Xol to be released from prison
Photo: Maria Caal at the march calling for the release of her brother Bernardo.
On June 4, PBI-Guatemala posted: “Today PBI accompanied the March for the Freedom of Bernardo Caal Xol, Jorge Coc and Marcelino Xol Cucul.”
The Spanish news agency EFE reports: “Hundreds of indigenous people of Guatemala marched on Friday to demand the release of Mayan activist Q’eqchi’ Bernardo Caal Xol, a recognized defender of communities affected by the construction of hydroelectric plants on the Oxec and Cahabón rivers, in the northern department of Alta Verapaz.”
“The protesters gathered in the center of the city of Cobán, about 160 kilometers north of Guatemala City, after walking on four slopes [prongs] from the towns of Chisec, San Pedro Carchá, San Juan Chamelco, and Santa Cruz.”
(PBI-Guatemala accompanied the march from San Pedro Carchá to Cobán, which is about a 10-kilometre walk.)
The article adds: “Among the protesters was Bernardo Caal’s sister, Maria Caal, who traveled from Cahabón, her homeland, to demand her brother’s release. María Caal has become a visible face after the capture and conviction of Bernardo, in defense of nature.”
Bernardo Caal Xol
Caal Xol is a leader of the Peaceful Resistance of Cahabón, a collective of 38 Maya Q’eqchi communities, that was formed to oppose the construction of the Oxec and Renace dams on the Cahabón River and its tributaries.
PBI-United Kingdom has noted: “In August 2017, PBI provided security support to the good-faith consultation in which the 195 communities of the Cahabón River overwhelmingly rejected the Oxec hydroelectric projects.”
The Guatemalan Human Rights Commission (GHRC) highlights: “A few months later [in December 2017], Bernardo was arrested [in] a clear act of retribution for the defense of his community’s water rights.”
In November 2018, Bernardo was sentenced to seven years and four months in jail.
Jorge Coc and Marcelino Xol Cucul
OMCT has explained: “Both men arrested at the beginning of 2018 on charges of ‘homicide’ and ‘attempted homicide’. Despite serious inconsistencies in the testimonies of the witnesses and the acquittal of two other people arrested under the same charges, they were sentenced in October 2019 to 35 years in prison, without parole.”
“Far from being a simple judicial error, their story is emblematic of the battle for land, water and other natural resources playing out in Guatemala.”
That article adds: “Jorge and Marcelino are Q’eqchi Mayan indigenous leaders and members of an organisation based in the Verapaces region, called the Campesino Committee of the Highlands (CCDA). For over ten years, their community of Choctun Basilá, near the regional capital Cobán, has been in a land dispute with the company Cooperativa Chilté, which has exacted a heavy toll: a campaign of criminalisation and attacks against the CCDA that culminated in the killing of six of its members and the arbitrary detention of Jorge and Marcelino.”
PBI-Guatemala has been accompanying the Peaceful Resistance of Cahabón and Bernardo Caal Xol since August 2017 and the CCDA since July 2018.
“The Q’eqchi’ and Poqomchi’ peoples in defense of water, territory and justice demonstrate against the monopolizing and oppressive system of the people.”

A new technology for transforming plastic is being patented at TSU
Yana Dubkova, a TSU young scientist, is finishing her project “Development of a Technology for Processing Plastic into High-Tech Titanium Carbide Powders” and is preparing to patent this technology. Thanks to the synthesis method proposed, powder compounds of carbon and metal are obtained from plastic that have a wide range of applications - from heat pipes to nuclear power.
- From the granules obtained after such processing, only those plastic products from which they were obtained can be produced. Consequently, there is a need for fundamentally new technologies that allow processing plastic waste without separation and without the need for cleaning from contamination, and then adapting this technology to the requirements of modern industry, - explained Yana Dubkova, a staff member of the TSU Laboratory of Nanotechnology of Metallurgy.
The scientific project implemented by Yana Dubkova is to process a mixture of various types of plastic without separating it by color or cleaning it from impurities. The main task, in this case, is not just processing, but the use of this process to obtain high-tech compounds that are widely used in various industries, including powder metallurgy.

Matt Frei’s Obama and Me (1 x 50′) – A thought-provoking and entertaining film about Barack Obama’s Presidency presented by Channel 4’s renowned Washington Correspondent, will explore what ordinary Americans think about the man many of his supporters called “Black Jesus”.
The Obama Presidency has been a roller-coaster ride. Obama entered the White House adored by millions; but since then it’s been an uphill struggle; wrestling with the worst recession for sixty years, and Republican enemies who are determined to thwart the President at every turn. Obama has been criticized for political naiveté, for failing to create a clear narrative to explain his policy decisions, and for tactical blunders which have damaged his Presidency. Many Americans feel that this is an historic election – the last chance to turn around a country that seems in terminal decline. With the Republican candidate Mitt Romney breathing down his neck in the polls, Matt asks whether Obama – America’s first black President – will also be a one-term President?
Frei embarks on an election road trip across the Midwest – from Minnesota to Michigan – stopping off at political rallies, Mormon church services, and even a horror convention, to take the temperature of Main Street America in this election year. The film examines the ups and downs of Obama’s presidency and in particular it’ll focus on what is rapidly becoming an endangered species in America: the middle class.

Starring Vikram, Jiiva and Tabu, "David" is an upcoming film directed by Benjoy Nambiar. The film is being made simultaneously in Bollywood, with Vinay Virmani playing Jiiva’s character in the Hindi version.
The film’s soundtrack released yesterday, and is unique in the sense that a number of music directors have worked on the album.
The album opens with the track "Vaazhkaiye (The Theme of David)", with music by Mumbai-based electronic music duo Bramfatura and lyrics by Mohanrajan. The powerful track features vocals by Siddharth Basrur, and I actually did a double-take when I first heard the song – his vocal tone is reminiscent of that of AR Rahman at points! The production on this track is impressive, and it’s a great opener for the album.
Chiyaan Vikram joins music director Remo Fernandes behind the mic for "Maria Pitache", a foot-tapping Baila number. The light-hearted lyrics by V. Elango and Remo Fernandes are sure to put a smile on your face; "Life-kulla wife irundha, jolly jolly daa…wife mela wife irundha, gaali gaali da"!
"Kanave Kanave", with vocals by Anirudh Ravichander, seems to be the pick of the album for many music fans. It is undoubtedly a beautiful song, even if it does seem like a mashup between Kannazhaga and Po Nee Po from "3" (for which Anirudh composed the music). The lyrics by Mohanrajan are moving, and Anirudh’s heartfelt vocal performance for this track expresses the emotions beautifully.
Up next on the album is "Manamay", with its exceptionally catchy beat and hook. Composed by Prashant Pillai, singer Karthik lends his voice to this one. The rousing anthem with lyrics by Mohanrajan does not showcase Karthik’s amazing vocal abilities, but it stands its ground well within the album. The album also features a dubstep version of "Manamay". As a standalone track, this remix isn’t brilliant, and it seems like a bit of an unnecessary addition to the album.
The sublime vocals of Naresh Iyer and Shweta Pandit are the highlight of "Iravinil Ulavavaa", composed by Prashant Pillai. The lighter-than-air vocals by both are a joy to listen to in this dreamy love song with romantic lyrics by Yugabharathi.
"Theerathu Poga" is a rework of "Tore Matware Naina" by Mumbai-based world music band Maatibaani with French artiste Joyshanti. Nirali Kartik – lead singer of Maati Baani – sings her parts in Tamil for this version. Her classically-influenced vocals are excellent, and she renders the gamakas with great ease. The French parts and instrumental interludes (particularly the flute-based one) work well to provide a bit of a shake-up to the song. Fun fact: the flautist in this track is actually a street flute-seller who caught the attention of the band whilst walking outside the studio! The brief swaram-scatting exchange towards the end is fabulous!
"Machi" is a rock-y number that is a rework of "Arnie" from the "Random Sheep" EP by Mumbai-based indie-rock band Modern Mafia. Sanjeev Thomas provides the lead vocals for this one, and his lively performance is perfect for this energetic track. In my opinion, "Machi" is let down slightly by its lyrics, but you’re sure to be singing along with the "La La La La" hook line by the end, nonetheless.
All in all, I think the decision by director Benjoy Nambiar to use an array of music directors was a good move; the David soundtrack is an eclectic mix of a number of genres, bringing a fresh sound to the scene. Picks of the album: Kanave Kanave and Theerathu Poga. 6.5/10

At the end of last year, the Chinese automaker BYD became the first company to sell plug-in hybrids, a type of vehicle that could dramatically lower fuel consumption by allowing people to commute using electricity alone (an internal combustion engine would still provide power for long trips).
Now supporters of the technology will be hoping that its performance on the market isn’t a harbinger of things to come. It’s been reported that over the eight months since, only 100 of these cars have been sold (via Green Car Congress), far less than an anticipated run of 3,000 to 4,000 vehicles.
In the United States, the first plug-in hybrid will likely come from start-up Fisker Automotive later this year, followed by the much publicized Chevy Volt next year. GM, through its heavy marketing of the Volt, has staked a great deal of its reputation on the car. It’s expected to sell for $40,000-$45,000, and the Fisker vehicle–a luxury sedan–will sell for $87,900. The BYD vehicle hasn’t been able to sell its vehicles even though they’re much cheaper–about $22,000. Of course, we’re talking about different markets.
All three of these vehicles have large battery packs capable of storing enough energy for over 40 miles of driving. Toyota, which this week unveiled a prototype of its own plug-in hybrid at the Frankfurt auto show, is trying a different strategy–its car will only provide about 12 miles of all-electric driving. The smaller battery pack required could make such cars cheaper than longer-range vehicles, although it’s not clear Toyota can beat BYD’s bargain basement price–the company’s conventional hybrid, the Prius, costs as much as BYD’s plug-in hybrid. But Toyota is planning to test a few hundred of its plug-ins under real world conditions before bringing them to market. And BYD will reportedly start selling its plug-in hybrid in the United States in a couple of years.

Atomic Cards is an Adventure, Casual, and Strategy game for PC published by Hide Head in 2021. A very interesting game!
Atomic Cards PC Game 2021 Overview:
The game will definitely not let you get bored because in it you have to monitor the level of thirst and hunger and also not to get cold in the game.
Whether or not you can enjoy the fluctuation of difficulty. Combat and craft are card game formats, but you can move them by clicking on the map. You may need English reading comprehension to avoid catching weird negative events, as you will not be able to receive quests when Morale goes down, and then there is little way to recover.
As the stage progresses, ammunition, etc. will be confiscated and the equipment will start to break immediately, so it is not possible to capture by using the strong weapons picked up in the previous stage endlessly. Also, when the game is over, you can continue using the funds, but these funds can be received at regular intervals from the Statue released by clearing the quest.
Hardness in the early stage and Musou in the latter half. When you start, you will be suddenly thrown into the wilderness with a single knife. When the enemy’s icon enters the map, it will be displayed only for a moment, so avoid them and recover resources from the box or house, but anyway, since recovery means are scarce at the beginning, cross the map in search of food and medical supplies. There will be.
Features of Atomic Cards:
- Working code (the game does not hang, does not lag, no bugs were noticed either).
- Nice minimalism.
- Few interesting events.
- Great arts
Minimum System Requirements:
- OS: Windows 7/8/10
- Processor: AMD E1-6010 APU 1.35 GHz
- Memory: 2 GB RAM

Bay of Fires by Morgan SilkRegular price £545.00 Save £-545.00
Bay of Fires 2015. 17” x 24”, Edition of 25, Archival Inkjet print
Here Morgan Silk presents a genuinely stunning landscape. Instead of urban landscapes, or alternative colour palettes, here he embraces raw natural beauty. The scene features a beautiful seascape in the distance paired with a dramatically lit sky, both setting up a foreground that somehow looks like snowy mountains and sandy beaches in the same shot. This piece really brings together a natural scene that stuns the viewer with an ensemble of beautiful features and colours.
Morgan Silk was born and raised in England's brewing capital of Burton-on-Trent and studied photography at Blackpool and Fylde College, graduating in '92 before moving to London, where he began retouching for some of London's top photographers and advertising agencies.
Ten years on, he made the decision to follow his heart and returned to photography, shooting personal work that would soon gain international exposure through London gallery shows and winning awards including a prestigious AOP Gold Award for his Zoo project.
It wasn't long before he embraced a new commercial career, traveling the world, shooting for leading clients and brands, while still maintaining his passion for fine art photography, digital post-production, and printmaking.
Morgan’s other interests include guitars and music technology, hydroponics, and all things fermentable. His first collaboration beer with Burton based DE14 Brewery, “Morgan Silk” NEIPA was proudly launched at Craft Beer Rising in London, 2018.

The spread of harmful misinformation has become an untenable problem on Reddit. Its latest incarnation has seen life-threatening untruths being propagated by anti-vaxxers and conspiracy theorists, and Reddit’s administration has stated that it will not meaningfully curb the myths disseminated by these bad actors. In response to this, many communities on the site have gone private in protest.
/r/GIFs supports and stands behind these communities' efforts to stem the effects of false information, but we have chosen to remain open as a means of amplifying their message. We encourage all Redditors to vocally reject misinformation, and to stymie its spread by demanding that only verifiable facts be given support (whether tacit or otherwise).

Lovely fluid animation though. Love the attention to detail and colours too
2 months ago
Cheers! The animation piece comes naturally to me -- always struggling with the color palette. Glad ya dig it <3
Same, love a good bit of animating if I have a good PC, program/s and most of all, motivation.
Nah honestly I like the colours here. Not to go full on art critic but the shade of purple and green sky and ground have always gone together well, reminiscent of the old graphic card colours from the 80s or 90s so the nostalgia factor plays into it when you see those colours or cyan,magenta,yellow or RGB too .
Also the other bold colours contrast each other well and captures that alien feel, and the overall style seems quite vaporwave like.
Definitely something cool to look at if you were tripping!
Thanks for the thoughts man! I'm definitely aiming for a retro look, almost like you're viewing the animation on an outdated piece of hardware — little digital artifacts and imperfections.
Yeah that's just about the vibe it gives off. Nicely done
And No problem :)
Looks like a really messed up bacteriophage.
Sid, I see you've gone into animation.
Okay that’s enough weed for me today.
The mitochondria is the powerhouse of that hell.
This is what happens when you play Borderlands 3 on acid.
It’s shoot me in the head guy…
It's like a scene from the original The Thing
That wasn't the original, but yes.
This thing's existence looks quite uncomfortable... Good job!
A T-virus with a head for a ovipositor with birds on a leash. Huh
Very cool. What tool(s) did you use to create this piece of art?
Cinema 4D for design and animation, After Effects for the color / texture work!
Great stuff! Thanks for the quick response.
Kind of like an upside down virus, very cool!
I flipped my phone, the head still Dangles!!
Spongebob Horror Genre
Cool. Like living moebius
When your ballsack has a face.
If I saw that in Soma, I wouldn't be surprised at all
Hey its GlaDos' brother.
I kinda want this as a phone wallpaper, shit is aesthetics
Is the head Ryan Reynolds?
What a butthead.
Hi Sid from Toy Story!
Looks like a scene taken out from a Gorillaz videoclip
So this is what watching Toy Story on acid is like?
I would love to play a video game with this as the art style. This has some real Oddworld vibes.
Kill it now....
I was looking for the head at the wrong spot lol
Reminds me of babyface from toy story. Great work!
Man. You did Aang dirty.
This is awesome
But why D:
I'd love to see this as a VR animation on Quill. Ever thought of doing stuff for Quest 2/VR?
Looks like that one toy from toy story
Oh shit. I think I've been there before.
Can I buy and NFT if this?
I can appreciate the effort. Where the fuck is your head at dude. I mean why? What is this good for.
I'm an animator and designer for a living. Personal work like this gets me gigs!
Good reason, if it pays the bills, it pays the bills.

Faceless mental health services failing children - Kathleen Funchion TD
Speaking in the Dáil today on the Mental Health Parity Bill 2017, Sinn Féin TD for Carlow-Kilkenny Kathleen Funchion said that parents find the faceless nature of accessing mental health and CAMHS (Child and Adult Mental Health Service) for children stressful and not accessible.
Teachta Funchion said:
“Parents who seek a CAMHS referral are initially asked to fill in a number of forms which they have 14 days to fill out and return.
“Parents have no idea how to fill out the forms, if they are filling them out accurately or placing their child in the correct category, all the while trying to deal with their child who is in crises.
“They then receive a pile of information leaflets outlining drop in clinics and other services while they are on the waiting list for an assessment with CAMHS.
“The service is faceless, there is no one to ring to help parents fill out forms, and they are left with no idea what to do to help their child and are tearing their hair out.
“Trying to get an appointment for their child to seek help for a mental health issue often coincides with a parent finding out that the issue exists in the first place.
"This is difficult for a parent to digest and to have to attempt to navigate the inaccessible mental health services provided by the HSE leaves parents feeling helpless, powerless and like they are failing their child.
“Waiting lists for services needs to be addressed so children are not left languishing on lists and carrying issues over into adolescence and adulthood that could have been addressed had they been seen in a timely manner by the correct service.
“It is yet another example of the State failing its children as it has so many times in the past.
"The Government cannot allow this situation to continue as it stands which is why I, and Sinn Féin, fully support the Mental Health Parity Bill 2017."

Initially, these four exchanges operated independently. However, the Spanish Securities Market Act in 1988 envisioned a single, unified system and the four exchanges were interconnected a year later. At the outset, there were five companies operating within the market and they were grouped together using the Computer Assisted Trading System (CATS), a software adapted from the Toronto Stock Exchange. In 1995, the Spanish Stock Exchange Interconnection System (known as SIBE) replaced CATS and remains in use to this day. And in 2001, following Spain's entry into the European Union, these four exchanges were definitively unified.
This market brings together more than 130 companies, including IBEX-35 stocks and other smaller companies that are not listed on the IBEX-35. It is supervised by the Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) governed by BME, which is also indirectly responsible for settlement and clearing.

The Government of Japan has extended US$ 93,177 (around Rs. 11 million) grant aid for the rehabilitation of Weliwewa Tank in Mihintale Divisional Secretary Division, Anuradhapura District, under the Grant Assistance for Grassroots Human Security Projects scheme (GGP).
The project, which would be implemented by Rajarata Janasahana Foundation, aims at improving agricultural activities and livelihood of approximately 300 families who are engaging in agriculture around the area. In addition, this project will also contribute to socio-economic development of Anuradhapura District, where the Government of Sri Lanka puts all its efforts into development through the Deyata Kirula 2012 development project.
According to the Chairman/Executive Director of Rajarata Janasahana Foundation Mr. Ashoka Indika Wickramage, Weliwewa Tank had provided water to fields and gardens in Mihintale Divisional Secretary Division Since ancient times. However, there have been leaks in the bund and the main exit for about 8 years. Due to the leaks, the farmers have not been able to cultivate their paddy fields and lands. After the rehabilitation of the tank, about 350 acres of paddy field will be cultivated, moreover, water will also be provided to about 1,000 acres of home garden.
The GGP scheme was launched in Sri Lanka in 1989 to ensure human security of people at the grass-roots level. Under this scheme, in the Japanese Fiscal Year of 2011 alone, a total of 10 projects have been supported throughout Sri Lanka , in the fields of demining, rural development, livelihood improvement, and education. In total, 227 projects have been supported to date in Sri Lanka at a cost of around US$ 29.6 million (around Rs. 3,500 million
The Grant Contract was signed between Mr. Nobuhito Hobo, Ambassador of Japan and Mr. Ashoka Indika Wickramage, Chairman/Executive Director of Rajarata Janasahana Foundation today (March 20), at the Ambassadorís Residence in Colombo .

A ghillie suit is a type of camouflage clothing designed to resemble the background environment such as foliage. Which can be found randomly within supply drop crates that are seen parachuting down in the game maps.
The ghillie suit is a cosmetic clothing that will disregard the players equipment appearances (along with the helmet and body armor appearances) except the bag.
Some players believe that the ghillie suit is both a camouflage and an eye-catcher. As long as the opposing player has poor eye-sight and poor loading speed. The ghillie suit is the common weapon for tactical ambushes and espionage.

Dynamic strain of rotating blades is critical in turbomachinery health monitoring and residual life evaluation. Though the blade tip timing (BTT) technique is promising to replace traditional strain gages, the lack of effective strain transformation through BTT hinders the implementation. In this paper, a noncontact dynamic strain reconstruction method of rotating blades is proposed based on the BTT technique and response transmissibility. First, the displacement-to-strain transmissibility (DST) considering rotational speed is derived from the frequency response functions based on blade mode shapes. A quadratic polynomial function of DST with respect to the rotational speed is provided to calibrate DST in blade rotational state. Second, the blade-tip displacement in resonance is obtained by BTT measurement and the Circumferential Fourier Fit processing method. Third, the dynamic strains of critical points on blades are calculated using the DST in conjunction with the tip displacement amplitude. In this paper, to validate the proposed method, acceleration and deceleration experiments, including both BTT and strain gages, are conducted on a spinning rotor rig. Experimental results demonstrate that the reconstructed dynamic strains of different positions on the rotating blades correspond well to the results measured by strain gages. The mean relative error between the reconstructed and measured results is generally within 8%.

“The city’s growth in personal income or average wage per job has not kept pace with its reputation as an innovator,” says Skip Rung, executive director of the Oregon Nanoscience and Microtechnologies Institute and a member of the economic development commission. Rung and other members said the plan endorsed by the council aims to reverse these trends by focusing on three action areas: growing and retaining startups, supporting existing employers such as CH2M HILL, and “leveraging existing assets,” by creating enterprise zones or marketing the vacancies that exist on the Hewlett-Packard campus.
Unsurprisingly, the city plan targets OSU as a key resource for spinning off research-based businesses. The university’s history of nurturing new companies dates to the 1930s, when a professor and three students started CH2M HILL, which is now headquartered in Colorado. Today the university seeks to keep local startups from decamping to other cities, says OSU vice president for research and commission member Rick Spinrad. Possible strategies include giving such companies access to university libraries and fee-based materials. The larger question, says Spinrad, “is what can the university do differently to support business?”
Another commission member, Nick Fowler, CEO of Perpetua Power Source Technologies, said the city aims to more fully exploit synergies between the university, HP and CH2M HILL. A former HP employee, Nick Fowler noted that Perpetua’s thermo electric technology is only “one or two degrees of separation” from his former employer’s inkjet technology.
As city leaders grapple with growing businesses and creating jobs, one sector has already taken off: student housing. Capitalizing on student population growth and an apartment vacancy rate of less than 1%, developers are planning at least four major off-campus student housing developments. “It’s a beneficial time for building units,” says Tom Gerding, a contractor who is building one of those projects: 7th Street Station, an 82-unit complex with 308 bedrooms. Gerding also is working on two affordable housing projects.
Not everyone is enthusiastic about the city’s housing boom. “It feels as if Corvallis is under siege from housing developers who say, ‘Ooh, we can build student housing there,’” says Louise Marquering, one of many Corvallis residents who have organized to protest parking, congestion and other problems stemming from OSU’s growth. The university, says Marquering, needs to have its own plan to house students instead of relying on private developers.

Anders Waltz Waltz từ Yavaş Köyü, Çakıroğlu Mahallesi, 52410 Yavaş Köyü/Fatsa/Ordu, Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ
As a quick review, this book is really written in simple form, yet stuffed with too many details, and kind of less informative as well. So, in such case I would rather watch it as a movie. It would be more interesting.
I really enjoyed Shatter Me! There are so so so many good points about this book that I absolutely adored even though I did feel a little disappointed in the end. The writing, the writing, the writing! I think I may have fallen in love. Tahereh's unique writing style is definitely Shatter Me's strongest point! It was my favorite part about the book and it really did live up to all my highest expectations after so many reviews gushing about it. The use of metaphors in approximately every second sentence felt entirely appropriate the way they were used and I know a lot of people got annoyed with the lack of comma's but I found it strangely refreshing. The striked out phrases were truly an amazing addition to the already fantastic writing. Juliet, Juliet, Juliet. Juliet is the reason why Shatter Me failed to thrill me completely. I know being locked up in a cell, isolated from any form of interaction for 264 days can do bad things for your self-esteem but Juliet took it a bit too far in my opinion. With almost 338 pages of Juliet going "I want to die I want to die" over and over again and then continuing to cry cry cry, moan moan moan, gasp gasp gasp, I have to say I got a bit frustrated with her in the end. Not to say she wasn't strong by the end of it all, I mean shooting someone is pretty bad-ass, but her character just didn't cut it for me. But uh, Adam, Adam, Adam, oh how you make me swoon! Those bathroom scenes were so perfectly detailed that I felt the heat rising to me cheeks as I read through them. I love how compassionate and loving and caring he was for Juliet. A girl really does need someone like him! Add to that, their history together made the romance completely believable! Warner, Warner, Warner. Warner is totally hot creepy. Seriously, he's the main villain in Shatter Me but you really can't help but love him. He made the book for me. Interesting, intriguing, engaging. And that scene at the end with Juliet? I'm telling you, sexy, fiery, blush-worthy even if it was a complete shenanigan on Juliet's part. His obsession with Juliet is certainly quite shuddersome at times but without a psycho like him, Shatter Me would have fallen flat on it's beautiful, shiny, glossy cover. The other characters in Shatter Me were also incredibly engrossing. Kenji is so charming and funny! Rather reminds me of Roar from Under the Never Sky! Overall, Shatter Me may not have risen completely to my highest expectations but it's definitely a fun and engaging read. Tahereh's writing makes this book addictive, addictive, addictive! Plus, interestingly enough, the plot is starting to sound a lot like X-men of which I didn't quite believe until I finally read it myself. Shatter Me ended on a really high note so I'll definitely be picking up the next book when it comes out!

DELAND - Bethune-Cookman College may get nearly $500,000 in federal funds to help pay for its Student Union/Community Service Center, U.S. Rep. John Mica's office said Wednesday.
Mica's office announced that a $497,040 appropriation for B-CC and one for $99,410 for instructional equipment and technology infrastructure at Daytona Beach Community College's Advanced Technology Center is in a spending measure pending before Congress.
The money for B-CC will help pay for a $15 million retrofit of a former automotive dealership on 7 acres off International Speedway Boulevard.
The college bought the dealership last year and plans to use it for a student center, community services and a 5,000-seat sports arena, said Catherine Kershaw, the college's director of public relations.
"The funding will enable us to create a community services center to increase the college's contributions to the community," B-CC President Oswald P. Bronson said, according to a statement released by Kershaw.


text: The Lyceum is having the World Premier of the stage version of Local Hero. It was a collaboration with Bill Forsyth, but there were some artistic differences and they fell out. I guess that was because the story was changed; we went later and it was terrific even if the story change grated a bit. There has been a lot of publicity and I liked the fact they put an advert in a modern telephone box. The extra is another road sign that has been artistically changed.

Last Updated September 5, 2023.
The Woman's Prize, or the Tamer Tamed is a play by John Fletcher that was originally written as a response to William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. The comedy's primary theme is the examination of gender roles in society, especially during the time of the play's publication (1647).
Gender roles—in terms of social perceptions on the male-female balance of power—are reversed. Petruchio is an alpha-male and head of a household. However, his wife Maria "tames" Petruchio, the "tamer," and thus the power of the household shifts to Maria, or that the social power had always belonged to her. In this vein, The Woman's Prize is similar to Aristophanes's play Lysistrata.
In a subplot of the play, the character of Livia also illustrates the major theme of female empowerment by joining the other women in protest. This is a reaction to an unwanted arranged marriage to a man she does not like. The act shows that choiceless-ness can be eradicated by simply choosing, or by exerting one's will.
