Glasgow based duo Anna Thorn & Iain MacDonald are the brains behind Naromode, launched in 2013 & roughly translating as ‘narrative fashion’ they focus on weaving a rich story through their collections, often inspired by old fairytales & folklore. Their latest offering takes The Brothers Grim dark tale of ‘Little Snow White’ as it’s main influence, drawing on the poison apples, dense forests & burning embers. Beautiful, illustrative prints paired with simple silhouettes & luxurious fabrics make the pieces both super wearable & completely standout all at once.
Honestly, I am not usually the greatest fan of prints myself, but these are a different story. Thanks to being designed in house exclusively for the collection these are unusually unique & eye catching, plus with that sumptuous dark & moody palette they fit perfectly into the kind of aesthetic I love. I could see myself happily wearing most of these pieces, but I’m especially smitten with the first dress ‘feather & frame’ & the ‘black raven’ dress in the third photo.

|Location Map ( geo)|
|Distance:||10.9 miles (17.5 km)|
|Meets:||A162, B1222, A19|
|Route outline (key)|
The B1223 is a largely rural east-west B-road to the south of York.
It starts at a simple T-junction with the A162 between Tadcaster and Towton and runs fairly straight and fast eastwards to Ulleskelf, where it slows to 30mph through the village and rises on a bridge over the York—Leeds railway. After leaving the village, the B1223 turns left at a poorly-signed T-junction - straight ahead is an unclassified road to Church Fenton.
From here, the road is narrow and twisty, and very slow. It passes through the village of Ryther, including a right-angle bend leaving the village. A couple of miles on, it reaches the village of Cawood, where it crosses the B1222 at traffic lights. The stop lines are a long way back from the junction, because the turn is so tight that buses need that much space to get round! The road then bears sharply to the right, and turns left at a mini-roundabout - straight ahead is an unclassified road towards Thorpe Willoughby.
The B1223 then leaves Cawood behind, and the road opens up a little bit, but it is still slow and twisty, Shortly we arrive in the village of Wistow, where there is a double S-bend on a very narrow section of the road, hemmed in by a brick wall on one side and a building on the other. Out of the village, the road returns to slow and twisty NSL before arriving in the northern reaches of Selby. After crossing a mini-roundabout, the road comes to another mini-roundabout where ahead is Millgate, the old route of the road, but this is now blocked off. The B1223 turns left onto New Millgate, which bends round and rejoins the original route.
On your right after this is Selby Market Place, and at this point, most maps say that the B1223 turns right, but the road beyond the Market Place is one way (towards you) and access only. However, traffic can continue ahead along Water Lane, which may or may not be unclassified, to reach the A19.

The Department of the Interior (DOI) proposes to revise regulations implementing the Buy Indian Act, which provides the Department with authority to set aside procurement contracts for Indian-owned and controlled businesses. The proposed rule is to revise current procurement regulations that have created barriers to Indian Economic Enterprises (IEEs) from full participation in the DOI’s procurement process. The proposed rule is here.Continue reading
Buy Indian Act set-asides might increase following the Department of the Interior’s recent release of a Buy Indian Act National Policy Memorandum.
In the January 2016 Memorandum, the DOI establishes a policy of maximizing the use of the Buy Indian Act and increasing the number of Buy Indian Act set-asides. The Buy Indian Act Memorandum comes in the wake of a GAO Report issued last summer, which criticized the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Indian Health Service for their implementation of the Buy Indian Act.


Trying where so many of his colleagues failed yesterday, Senate Armed Services Committee chairman Carl Levin just attempted to get Defense Secretary Robert Gates to say what will happen if the Iraqi government doesn't meet the commitments that the White House is using to justify an escalation of the war in Iraq. Gates' response: "If they fail to do these things, then it's incumbent on the administration and incumbent on me to recommend looking at whether this is the right strategy."
John McCain followed up by asking Gates if he's confident that the Iraqis will live up to their commitments this time around. Gates said Nouri al-Maliki's government sure seems enthusiastic about doing what it needs to do this time, but he acknowledged that "the record of fulfilling the commitments is not an encouraging one."
Events in Iraq aren't particularly encouraging, either. As Sen. Ted Kennedy just noted, Maliki didn't even show up for a press conference where he was expected to discuss Bush's new plan.

Stamp Fairy DT Fun
Hi everyone, I know, 2 posts in one week, it's been a while. November and December are just so darn busy! If you're looking for the Fab N Funky bloghop, scroll down or click here.
I made this card because Stamp Fairy is having a DT call. I just love these bears, and so I thought I'd give it a try.
This one took me a few tries though. The first bear I mucked up by putting Stickles on dark blue snowflakes and they bled all over the place. They I coloured him with my brand new Copic markers. Hmm, interesting, it's obvious I'm going to need a lot of practice there! Third time's a charm I guess.
Due to the repeated attempts, I missed a bunch of challenges, but I think I've managed to squeak a couple:
Colours - Color Q
Feathers or Fur - Pile It On
Anything goes - the Crazy Challenge
And of course, the important DT call, here at Stamp Fairy. They've asked for 3 cards, so here's a couple of my fave's, this weeks birthday card for Fab N Funky and my first card using rolled flowers, it's just so pretty.

[We asked local poet Pearl Pirie to check out the inaugural Prose in the Park event that took place in Parkdale Park on June 6. Here’s her piece! Also, don’t miss Pearl’s more poetic interpretation of the event right here.]
The inaugural Prose in the Park event was a resounding success; a fill-your-brain extravaganza with lively discussions, and plenty of excitement from writers and participants alike.
“It’s been a really beautiful day. Tremendous fun from the beginning to the end,” said local fantasy author Amal El-Mohtar. “I’ve been delighted to meet writers in the Ottawa scene, local people doing tremendous things like Jay Odjick.” (Odjick recasts Anishinabe legends in superhero context in graphic novels.)
There were all kinds of new authors and discoveries to be made.Did you know Ottawa has a flash-fiction magazine? It’s called Saturday Night reader, and it can be found in print and online at saturdaynightreader.com. A portion of subscription sales goes to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) and Cystic Fibrosis Canada.
The event featured over 100 authors and 11 panels. Many genres and publishers were represented, including self-published authors to Giller Prize winner, Vincent Lam, local publishers, big presses, and bookstores.
It was a new experience for many, including Ottawa short fiction writer Craig Calhoun.
“I had a great time. It was my first time doing a panel like this and it went a lot better than I expected,” said Calhoun. “It was really great to see independent publishers represented.”
Councillor Jeff Leiper was also in attendance. [story continues below photo]
“They started talking to me months ago about doing this and it’s come together really quickly,” said Leiper. “The organizers have been laser focused on all the details. Take a look around… Not every event has thought things through the way they have.”
It was a steady, happy crowd and the outdoor space worked very well; conducive to the panels as well as networking and informal chatter. There was space enough for conversations that were breaking out all day. [story continues below photo]
The panels covered a variety of literary topics. Kevin T. Johns of Write Along Radio moderated a sci-fi panel with local writers, Alex Binkley, Hayden Trenholm, and Toronto’s Julie Czerneda. He also brought forward some thought provoking questions during a later fantasy panel. Both had energetic witty conversations and great rapport.
On the fantasy panel, veteran novelist, Charles de Lint, and local Aurora winner, Marie Bilodeau, debated the role of violence and magic in the genre and what distinguishes the genre. Julie Czerneda remarked that sci-fi has a long history of inclusivity, with no distinction between professional writers and fans. Readers are real people, not just “some guy to sell a book to” but to invite to write as well. It’s about participation and community, not static consumption.
I’ll leave the last word to Ottawa’s Brenda Gayle, romance novelist and author of Six Geese for Monica: “I think it’s a fantastic event…. It’s amazing.”

Greeks have been cultivating saffron for three centuries in the countryside surrounding Krokos, which takes its name from Crocus, the saffron flower. Alexander the Great is said to have used it to heal battle wounds.
But until 2000, production was limited to 30 kg a year for domestic consumption, said Nikos Patsiouras, who heads Greece's Cooperative of Saffron.
That changed in 2008, when the crisis hit. Greece now produces about four tonnes a year, 70 percent of which goes abroad. The Cooperative has doubled its members from 494 to 1,000. It also has increased its land from 592 acres in 2008 to 1,349 acres.
"A lot of young people found work in the fields — scientists," Patsiouras said. "I believe more will join."
Signs of the crisis are visible across Krokos, where shuttered shops line the streets. Unemployment in northwestern Greece is 23.5 percent, three points higher than the national average. But the fields are abuzz.
"We have God on our side, who gave us such a unique product," Patsiouras said. "We hold on to it like the apple of our eye."
Saffron grows only in this region of Greece. Marketed as Krokos Kozanis, one gram costs about four euros in Greek shops.
It takes 150,000 flowers to make a kilo of the spice, which sells for about 1,500 euros. Flowers are handpicked, and at the cooperative women in blue overall weigh and package it. They are forbidden to wear make-up and perfume, to protect its flavour.
Iran is by far the world's biggest saffron producer, but demand for the Greek variety is rising, Patsiouras said. Greece is in talks with China for exports in 2019.
In the Patsiouras household, three generations have gathered after a day of harvesting to remove the saffron strands from the flowers and dry them.
"If we don't transfer this tradition to the next generation, we will fail," said his daughter-in-law, Maria Patsioura.

“It’s a exceptional circumstance, and Jay has the proper characteristics for working with it,” mentioned Nellie Liang, who worked carefully with Mr. Powell on economical balance difficulties as a Fed staffer and now is a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. “He’s a particular person who can sizing up a situation pretty quickly and be decisive. I consider he’s definitely properly suited for this scenario.”
In the place of just 3 months starting off in late February, the Fed slice fascination premiums to zero, relaunched its application of bond shopping for on a mass scale, and initiated systems to aid lending to all types of entities — sometimes extra than a person a working day. It was as if actions that were unfold out around 18 months during the 2008 economical disaster have been squeezed into a one month.
“It’s clear that he saw that this was a major hazard early, and scrambled the staff to start off accomplishing some severe operate, for the reason that they’ve been able to roll out a good deal of things incredibly rapidly,” mentioned William English, a former senior Fed employees member now at the Yale Faculty of Management. “I credit rating that to Jay. I assume his comprehension of markets aided him to understand that this desired quite significant consideration early.”
The Fed’s era of mass-scale guidance for lending across all corners of the financial state is only beginning. Mr. Powell in essence promised Congress and the Treasury Division that they could depend on the Fed to aid finance a gigantic lending system. The $2 trillion rescue laws Congress passed last week includes $454 billion that can be paired with 10 situations as much cash from the Fed to aid trillions in lending.
“He informed me, ‘Think significant,’ simply because the fascination charges are lower,’” Home Speaker Nancy Pelosi reported of Mr. Powell in an interview with PBS NewsHour final week.
None of this assures achievement. The economic disaster the United States faces has no modern day precedent. The central lender is now going through challenging concerns about why it hasn’t done extra to assist lending to state and area governments, which are going through a fiscal disaster. And even though it declared a “Main Street Small business Lending Program” on March 23, aimed at modest and midsize organizations, it is not nonetheless up and working, and there are big open issues about how it could possibly do the job.
In its rush, the Fed will experience hard concerns of where to attract the strains. For instance, the emergency lending authority invoked for many of the new systems involves that lending have to be “secured to the satisfaction” of the Fed, indicating expectations for repayment.

The demographic of Alcoholics Anonymous meetings has changed markedly in the last 20 years, says the group's Victorian general secretary.
The changing role of women in society has caused a huge rise in the number of young and middle-aged female professionals at Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, the group says.
Alcoholics Anonymous Victorian general secretary, Angela King, said that while 20 years ago the meetings were "mostly older men", women made up around half of most meetings.
"I think it says the changing role of women in society, more pressure, more drinking with the boys scenarios, that kind of thing possibly," she said.
Alcoholics Anonymous began in 1935 in Akron, Ohio, when two men - a doctor and a stockbroker - got together to help each other stay sober for one day.
The 12-step program is now used around the world.
Locals in the Goulburn Murray region have also reported success with using the program to treat addictions to gambling and drugs, including ice.
Ms King said alcoholism was "a very isolating condition".
"Whilst you might get high profile alcoholics playing football and all this kind of stuff, deep down where they live they're isolated and alone," she said.
"They can be standing in a bar with a million people but be feeling alone, different and all wrong with how they're drinking alcohol but too proud to tell you."

Mass Politics and the Spirit of May 28th
In the turn to populism represented by the DSA, the left showed it had learned the wrong lesson from the Trump era. It was not any specific rhetoric that made Trump a political behemoth, because his messages fluctuated in wild contradictions day to day, even line by line. Trump’s rabid fanbase was instead the result of his adept appeal to a type of person who thinks a certain way, wants to live a certain kind of life, and is ready to join a mass movement/tribe/cult devoted to that yet-unnamed identity. When, during the 2018 midterms he declared himself a nationalist, he was more right than even he knew, for he had created his own nation: MAGA.
Trump’s success had always been in finding the easiest path to success, and through Twitter and television he savvied that this mass was out there waiting for a name, aesthetic, and leader. We now know that despite the handful of post-fascist intellectuals in his orbit, the sophisticated palingenetic appeal of MAGA, the structurally antisemitic America First campaign against the “global elite”, and the xenophobia of Build the Wall, were all instinctively reverse engineered from the anxieties of the GOP base and anti-political “lumpen” middle classes. By trying to contain these explosive desires within the demands of the big bourgeoisie, the Republicans were approaching the inertia of their so-called rival Democrats. Just as Democrats legitimize themselves by sucking at the grassroots of organized labor and social movements, Trump channelled the energies of the active conservative movement (Tea Party, Patriotic militiamen, Minutemen, Blue Lives Matter, Libertarians, White Nationalists, etc.) into the Republican Party, temporarily giving it new life.
Unfortunately, the Democrats are far better managers of their active base than the Republicans, whose ham-fisted theatrics after Trump’s 2020 loss nearly led to a split in the party. Examples can be found in every instance of popular struggle: the Women’s March of January 2017, one of the largest mass mobilizations in US history, was easily reduced to a fundraising and electoral campaign for Democrats, and the blockades of international airports and Abolish/Occupy ICE camps that followed were quickly plumbed into an NGO/Non-Profit professionalization pipeline.
But before they could gain control, these moments were confronted by the obvious next step of direct action: the Women’s March demonstrating the numbers existed to shut down the country against threats to reproductive rights. The airport blockades actually did shut down airports, until a court decision stayed Trump’s Muslim ban executive order. ICE facilities around the country were forced to reroute their detainees, switch to teleconference, and even close and relocate. But immediately upon success of these measures, the professionals swoop. The blockades only make the state crueler, they argued, demanding that adventuristic elements respect their authority, trust the courts, check their privilege, and allow them to continue the Sisyphean work of harm reduction.
Compare this to the May 28th, 2020 explosion that was the George Floyd Uprising. After years of being told to elect politicians who would push for police reform, the people of Minneapolis said enough was enough, taking their city back in a fiery purge of mourning, destruction, and self-preservation. Fearing for their lives, city politicians actually resolved to disband the Minneapolis police—a decision easily reversed once they regained control of the streets.
The vanguard of the George Floyd Uprising were not activists, but a new generation of rebels, largely Black and lower-class. Many were veterans of Black Lives Matters who learned their lesson in 2014, but many others were too young to participate then, yet instinctively knew what had to be done to avenge George Floyd and make the cops think twice before killing again. This, more than the few isolated incidents of sympathy strikes by bus drivers, represents the proletarian desires beating in the heart of the working class as a whole, yearning to break free immediately, collectively, en masse.
The challenge of those like us who want to develop a tendency faithful to the uprising—while trying to overcome its limits—is to theorize how this mass movement can convince millions more to follow the proletarian vanguard into the next uprising.
An immediate contradiction in thinking through this shift is that so many participated in the uprising as individuals who spontaneously built ad-hoc crews. If this is the model for contemporary revolution, old left ideas about the workers’ movement, the social movement, and the party should adjust. Throwing oneself into the riots and being transformed by the struggle itself was more important than trying to win everyone over to one particular strategy or organization.
Transformative moments like these did occur during the uprising. In downtown Manhattan, cultural venues, churches, art galleries, and cafes were converted into shelters or free stores to supply or hide the rioters. Elsewhere, workplaces across the country were forced to reckon with pay disparity and other forms of daily racist treatment and complicity with the police and prisons. The trend of corporate wokeness that followed is better understood as a desperate attempt to placate these questions, rather than the demand of the uprising as it spread into professional settings.
It is also notable that this mass rebellion occurred at the highest point of unemployment in the United States since the Great Depression. But unlike the mass movements that were contained by the jobs programs of the New Deal, the uprising did not call for a jobs program, nor did it emerge from the specific conditions of specific workplaces. It was instead a revolt of the precariat against a world that has become itself a massive workplace.
This is not to challenge the importance of the traditional working class, however narrowly defined. It is this class, alone, which has the power to really shut production down, and then start it running again as it sees fit. Previous Marxist attempts to analyze urban riots have often made the mistake of emphasizing the separation between the lower-class and the working-class by either pejoratively or patronizingly invoking the nebulous category of the lumpenproletariat. The uprisings’ main participants were neither petty bandits nor counterrevolutionary opportunists, but workers, freshly unemployed or otherwise, and their teenage children. They can be found driving taxis, driving buses, doing gig work, selling clothes online, selling drugs, doing sex work, and working at the same retail shops that were looted and burned. This group is no longer at the margins of the working class, but a massive plurality of it. This demonstrates the necessity of understanding the participants in the uprising as a vanguard faction of the working class.
When referring to the vanguard as the real movement, we are quoting Marx’s definition of communism as “the real movement which abolishes the present state of things. The conditions of this movement result from the premises now in existence.” Orienting towards the real movement distinguishes revolutionaries from populists and reformists--especially those factions of the left that have embraced arguments that the failure of Sanders to beat Biden were due to his being “too woke”, or that the uprising itself was misguided because carceral solutions poll well among Black voters. Their interest, like the Democrats, is to maintain society basically as is. To the extent that they do orient towards the working class, it is only towards those elements that stand in contradiction to its revolutionary pole: the proletariat.
The proletariat succeeds when it moves towards overcoming the contradiction of humanity with capital. It fails when it recreates the world as it is: ordered by race, gender, and class. In the joyous, multiracial rebellion of 2020, we saw this order temporarily break down in the streets of America. The new subjectivity manifested there was not a voter, did not have a leader, sought neither reforms nor non-reformist reforms, did not want to make America a more just society. It was a mass politics qualitatively different from what is useful for the failing political parties.

Chat sex cam withoutlog in - Mary elizabeth winstead is dating
All day yesterday and then the premiere was last night. “Tell me about your character.” MARY ELIZABETH WINSTEAD: Yes, of course. Of course Ryan Merriman who was with me in the press junket says he wants to go out in a blaze of glory and gunfire so that’s a little more exciting. MARY ELIZABETH WINSTEAD: Yeah, it’s only my second one. ” If I’m talking to you, it’s going to be a conversation that hopefully you will be interested in it as opposed to, “So tell me about your character” where you look at me and say, “Why don’t you watch the movie, jackass?
I was thinking, “She better say she wants to be 150 years old.” MARY ELIZABETH WINSTEAD: And I just want to go peacefully whenever I am prepared for it.
Wong and Winstead sat down to talk about their characters, working with Edgar Wright, The first question posed to both Winstead and Wong was if they now see themselves in the pages of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s comics.
They make their way around the city in order to find their friend before his wedding.
Scott Pilgrim plays in a band which aspires to success.
Speaking of their inspiration from the character, both stressed the comic book as the main source.
For Winstead, mostly used what O’Malley told her about Ramona that’s not in the books to help delve a little deeper and “bring a little humanity” to her cold exterior.
Winstead said her favorite Ramona hair color is blue and that she loved the character because most girls understand the desire to change constantly but aren’t impulsive or brave enough to do it, like Ramona.

President Obama's comment that health insurance is a "right" demonstrates how uninformed he is on the role of proper governance.
The definition of a true right is one that when exercised does not violate the right of another. For example, if someone else has to pay for or provide service for me to exercise my right, it is not a right.
Therefore, things like housing, education, a job, a minimum wage, medical treatment and, yes, health care insurance are not rights at all. Those are things that must be earned.
It's pretty simple to see that a government trying to provide all these things to all people will shortly go broke. Forced confiscation (i.e. taxes) from some to provide unearned entitlements to others is a formula for disaster. It doesn't work.
If we don't keep our current misguided administration in check our republic may be headed for fiscal ruin.

Species identification and its uses
Authentication testing according to the declaration of meat products or convenience products is an ongoing task within quality assurance. Species identification is used in a variety of settings:
- inspection of vegetarian and vegan products
- monitoring of the absence of animal meal in fodder
- inspections of food exports, e.g. to Islamic countries (halal) or to India (no consumption of beef)
- inspection of food declarations, e.g. convenience meals, kebab, etc.
- inspection of food declarations, e.g. pet food, etc.
Sensitive, biomolecular procedures can be applied to detect even the most minute addition of animal constituents. Even the analysis of complex and highly processed foodstuffs and fodder is possible.
We currently offer analyses to detect the following species (others on request):
- Duck (general)
- Mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos)
- Muscovy duck (Cairina moschata)
- Fallow deer
- Roe deer
- Red deer
- Fish species identification (general authentication)
- Tuna (e.g. bonito, yellow fin tuna)
- Animal constituents (in vegetarian products)
Other animal species
Our species authentications are based on highly sensitive, biomolecular methods:
- Real-time PCR (qPCR): Here we identify DNA sequences specific to certain animal species
- ELISA: Proteins specific to certain animals can even be detected in highly processed foods and fodders
- DNA sequencing: The animal species is identified by means of mitochondrial DNA sequence amplification and subsequent determination of the nucleotide sequence.
We regularly participate in inter-laboratory studies to maintain our high quality standards.
Practically all foods and fodders can be analysed, irrespective of their degree of processing:
- ready-to-use food
- raw food
- highly-processed food
- ready-to-use fodder/pet food
- raw materials und ingredients for fodder production
The required sample quantity depends on the type and homogeneity of the sample. Verified representativeness of the used sample in regard to the product as a whole is the key aspect.

New Zealand shares rose on Thursday, led by Restaurant Brands New Zealand, while Tourism Holdings and Fisher & Paykel Healthcare hit record highs.
The S&P/NZX 50 Index gained 60.96 points, or 0.8 per cent, to 7685.45. Within the index, 35 stocks rose, eight fell and seven were unchanged. Turnover was $134.9 million.
James Smalley, director at Hamilton Hindin Greene, said the market had seen broad-based buying, with the benchmark index near record levels, though volumes were lower.
Restaurant Brands led the index, up 3 per cent to $6.14, while Kathmandu Holdings gained 3 per cent to $2.06 and Sky Network Television rose 2.9 per cent to $3.53.
Tourism Holdings rose 2.2 per cent to $4.20.
"It has been on a bit of a run recently, on pretty good volumes," Mr Smalley said.
"If it gets up to $4.30, on an adjusted basis that's the highest it has been since 1993 - we're looking at a 24-year high. You'd have to be living under a rock to miss that tourism has taken over dairy as our biggest export earner. Investors are obviously thinking things are looking pretty good for the sector."
F&P Healthcare gained 1.5 per cent to $11.57, a record.
"Those investors that had the courage to buy into the stock when it got sold down post the Trump election when there were concerns about production in Mexico, have done exceptionally well," he said.
Metro Performance Glass was the worst performer, down 0.7 per cent to $1.36. Kiwi Property Group fell 0.7 per cent to $1.415 and A2 Milk Co dipped 0.5 per cent to $4.03.
Market regulator NZX suspended GeoOp's shares on the NZAX at 22 cents until a special meeting in July.
The unprofitable management app developer will ask shareholders to vote on its plan to de-list from the NZAX and list on the ASX.

Its been a little less than a week since Brad Keselowski went for a weird ride at Indianapolis Motor Speedway that saw his car sitting on the tire barrier and he having to crawl from the car as it sat nearly on its side.
In the advent of the SAFER barrier tracks are relying less and less on these old barriers and moving towards covering nearly every inch of track wall with SAFER to reduce injuries to drivers.
Keselowski for his part following the incident has spoken with officials at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on his incident there.
“I didn’t talk to NASCAR on it I’ve talked a little more to the track which is good as I think they are more in charge.” Said Keselowski
Safety is something that Keselowski would like to see more of an evolution in the next couple of years and coupled with the new Gen-7 car that is due in the sport it might be perfect timing for that to happen.
“I’d like to see the cars continue to evolve; I’d like to see the safety equipment continue to evolve. It continues to get better and I think there is a lot more we can continue to do on the concussion side.” continues Keselowski
“I’d like to see the road courses step up some more as I think they are a little behind everyone else.”
Keselowski for his part sees the tire barriers as a bit of antiquated safety protection and “band-aids to suboptimal wall angles”. Instead he would be in favor of seeing the poor walling be fixed for the detail that goes into the Cup Series events.
As the focus now shifts to the Playoffs, Keselowski and Penske racing head into Las Vegas this weekend to kick everything off with the second round coming next weekend at Richmond Raceway.
As Keselowski reflects on the No. 2 car and Penske Racing’s success at the track it’s something, he’s never felt pressure from Penske to go and win instead as he says its been about as a driver coming into an event and putting pressure on yourself to win.
“Richmond is a short track and such a cool track.”
However, when it comes to putting down some sort of track substance to open the racing grooves that he’s “okay with whatever the tracks want, I’ll just go out and race it and be the best I can be.”
As the playoffs begin this weekend in Las Vegas its but a short ten week stretch that will crown a champion in the Cup Series. For Keselowski he’s looking long term in what it will take to be there in Homestead and contend for his second championship.
“It’s a tough ten race stretch, glad to have the opportunity to win the championship. We got to make it count, we’ve got to have the speed, execution and luck on our side. We haven’t had that over the last few years.”
While earlier this week Penske Racing added a new driver into the fold of their organization through their affiliation with Wood Brothers Racing announcing the Matt DiBenedetto will pilot the famous No. 21 machine in 2020.
“I think it’s a great opportunity for Matt. Its good to see for him as he’s caught some bad breaks and some good breaks. Its good to see him catch a good break.” continued Keselowski
Richmond for its part since moving into the Playoffs is a tough track to drive with a such few opportunities for passing. For him to go to victory lane next Saturday night Keselowski and his team are looking for some more long run speed.
The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series playoffs kick off the weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday at 7 P.M. on NBCSN then moving to Richmond Raceway under the lights on Saturday, Sept. 21st.

We just came back from a 3 night stay at Nandini. The staff were excellent and very friendly. The location is slightly out of the way. Very quiet and not a great deal to do other than very expensive spa treatments, swim in the beautiful pool, soak in the hot jacuzzi. There is a shuttle bus leaving 2x a day if you would like to go into the centre of Ubud which is roughly half hour drive in. The rooms were delightful, full view of the beautiful rainforest and amongst it, monkeys swinging from trees. We had room 11 which is a superior deluxe and it was all that I thought it should be apart from the lack of lighting. The breakfasts were so so but we never had a decent dinner, ordered a burger and the burger meat was very raw and the other night we had pasta, very small portion left us both hungry and my entree of tom yum goong soup had prawn crap pipes floating around in it, on third night didn't even bother ordering anything. I've come to the conclusion that the must be short for staff in the kitchen, if this isn't the case then they definitely need a new chef. I'm not saying this is a bad place to consider staying, just do some research because once your out there, your out there, if you after peace and quiet with not much action then this is definitely the place for you.

Traffic Safety and Road Conditions
While in Trinidad and Tobago, you may encounter road conditions that differ significantly from those in the United States. In February 2011, Trinidad and Tobago outlawed the use of mobile phones while driving, except in “hands-free” mode. The penalty for talking or texting while driving is approximately USD$160 or imprisonment for three months. Trinidad and Tobago authorities will sometimes administer breathalyzer tests at unannounced checkpoints and traffic stops when driving under the influence is suspected. Penalties are stiff and may include imprisonment and steep fines.
Traffic moves on the left in Trinidad and Tobago. Most vehicles are right-hand drive, but left-hand drive vehicles are permitted. Rental cars are available, and are generally right-hand drive. A U.S. driver's license and/or an International Driving Permit are valid for up to 90 days after arrival. Seatbelts are required for drivers and front seat passengers. Cars may be stopped and drivers fined for not wearing seatbelts.
Trinidad has several good four-lane highways and one controlled-access highway. However, road quality decreases quickly on secondary roads. Rural roads are narrow and often have deep drainage ditches on either side. Some are in poor repair, and are frequently congested. Night travel should be avoided other than on major highways. Roadside assistance exists, but is limited and may be subject to lengthy delays. The Beetham Highway, a main thoroughfare in and out of the city, can be very dangerous if your vehicle has broken down. If your vehicle is still drivable you should get out of the area before seeking help. On the Beetham stretch, there are regular incidents of pedestrians running out into the road or throwing debris at cars – including masonry bricks – for the purpose of causing accidents and forcing cars to stop, whereupon a group of accomplices then descend upon the accident victims, robbing them of valuables, and often violently assaulting them, even if they are compliant. Elsewhere in Port of Spain, especially in Laventille, “bump and rob” incidents have been reported, in which the perpetrator rear-ends the victim, often causing only minor damage. When the victim emerges from the car, he or she is then robbed of valuables, and possibly carjacked as well. Some of these incidents have turned fatal, even when the victims were compliant. If you are involved in an accident in Laventille or on the Beetham Highway, if your car still drives, you should get out of the area, and get to a safe location before seeking help or assistance. Emergency ambulance services exist but may take a lengthy amount of time to reach the site of an accident and may not provide service in rural areas. The Ministry of Works and Transport is responsible for road conditions and safety in the country, but demand often outpaces availability of resources. On the road to Maracas Bay and onwards, landslides do occur. During heavy rains, drivers in all areas are advised to be extremely cautious as flooding and sinkholes have also been known to occur.
Trinidadian drivers may use hand signals to indicate turning, stopping, or slowing, which do not necessarily correspond to hand signals used in the United States. Trinidadian drivers are generally courteous, but can be flexible with the rules of the road. For example, cars traveling north on a two way street may cross into the southbound lane to stop and let passengers out. Visitors need to be attentive and alert. Intoxicated drivers on the road are a particular concern on the weekends, especially after dark when many locals are going to or returning from social events. Drivers should take extra precaution on narrow and winding roads leading in and out of beaches and small towns in Trinidad and Tobago. As always, defensive driving is strongly encouraged.
We suggest that you visit the website of the country’s Ministry of Tourism and national authority responsible for road safety.
Vehicle Accident Procedures: For cases in which there is major damage or any injuries, contact local authorities immediately. If it is safe to do so, render aid or assistance and remain on the scene until authorities arrive.
You are responsible for ensuring that you meet and comply with foreign entry requirements, health requirements and that you possess the appropriate travel documents.

FEC Approves N52bn for Installation of e-border Technology
The Federal Executive Council (FEC) yesterday in Abuja approved N52 billion for the provision of electronic devices at the country’s borders.
Briefing journalists at the end of the weekly FEC meeting presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in the State House, the Minister of Interior, Lt. General Abdulraman Dambazzau (rtd), said given the porous nature of the country’s borders, it is absolutely impossible to effectively safeguard them.
According to him, only the installation of technological devices could guarantee effective monitoring of the borders, which he said necessitated the approval of N52 billion for the enablement of e-borders.
The minister who said the approval was the fallout of a Memorandum of Understanding that he presented to the council, added that when executed, the project would be effective in 86 border posts and foster the monitoring of 1,400 illegal routes through which smuggling and other cross-border criminal activities are usually perpetrated.
“You will recall that when we came, I made the observation that our borders are very porous and diverse and that it is impossible to man these borders physically.
“Therefore, there is the need for modern technology to be able to monitor our borders. We also thought of the capacity to respond to emergencies at the borders.
“It is on this note that I presented a memo today for this e-Border solution. This process started in 2012 but we picked it up to move forward when we came in. The project is to be completed within the next two years and it will cost about N52 billion.
“There is a pilot project already which has been very successful. It was installed to monitor two borders.

A woman was arrested Saturday after allegedly fighting police while intoxicated in the drive thru of a Taco Bell in Mishawaka.
It happened on Saturday, Aug. 7, when officers were called on the report of an unruly driver.
They approached 38-year-old Terra Lindsley in the drive-thru and noticed she had been drinking.
Police told her 9 times to get out of the car before she did, according to 95.3 MNC’s reporting partners at ABC 57.
They say she wouldn’t follow commands, struggled when they tried to cuff her, banged her head against the inside of the squad car, screamed at the officers and kicked one three times.
According to court documents, she also tried to bite staffers at the St. Joseph County Jail while they were booking her.

Many curious and odd objects have surfaced from the dusty corners of the vaults, as a result of the inventory, among which is a group of metallic ore samples. With the rocks there were a number of very old identifying paper tickets, but a geologist will be needed to restore the rocks to their identification. This lot does not seem to have been formally accessioned. Things that have also come to light are:
- A very large Chinese balance set, in a wooden frame measuring almost 3 feet high and 30 inches wide, including four drawers with 43 different weights. For many years it was kept in George Miles’ office where some of the older members may remember seeing it. It was probably a gift of Helen Boyd in 1957.
Chinese balance set, 1957.187.1057
- A collection of 741 military buttons and insignia given to the ANS by Stack’s in 1988. These are still on the original owner’s carefully assembled and labeled 9” by 12” cards, from which some pieces were removed and retained or sold. Most of these are British, with a few other European countries. The card shown has the insignia of the Life Guards, the First King’s Dragoon Guards, the Bays, the Third Carabineers Prince of Wales’ Dragoon Guards, the Royal Scots Greys 2nd Dragoons, 3rd The King’s Own Hussars, 7th Queen’s Own Hussars, and 9th Queen’s Royal Lancers. These objects are fascinating, but they lie at the outermost limits of the Society’s collecting mission. All the buttons and insignia are individually described in the Society’s online inventory.
- Some important large plaques and plaster casts inserted into the narrow space between the ceiling and a row of cabinets. We hope that the new building will allow us to store these properly on shelves where they can be studied and admired. Among these are a cross with the Virgin Mary and angels sculpted by the medallist Giovanni Carieti, that was donated by Edward D. Adams in 1919. Carieti, who was entirely self-taught, was born in Naples but moved to New York in 1912. He has a long notice in the Supplement to Forrer’s Biographical Dictionary of Medallists, enumerating 148 works, of which about two-thirds are religious. Forrer quotes at length a notice in Revue graphique belge that begins “really strange and most interesting is this figure of ‘Gicar’ [one of Carieti’s pseudonyms] …. he has succeeded in making his name known throughout Italy by his literary works also …. we have to do with a personality so complex, with a temperament so extraordinary, that it is impossible to reproduce all the phases, all the metamorphoses of his very complex personality.” It seems that the ANS owns only five examples of Carieti’s many medallic productions.
Adoration of the Virgin, by Giovanni Cariati (ca. 1907-12), 1912.118.1. Gift of Edward D. Adams
- A plaque honoring William Herbert Sheldon, Ph.D., M.D., whose name will be well-known to all collectors of large cents and to all who were members of the ANS about than a decade ago. Sheldon is also known as the scholar who organized the project to take frontal and side nude photographs of entering Ivy League undergraduates in the fifties and sixties, attempting to demonstrate a supposed correlation of body shape and personality. The citation reads “during the past century and longer, there have been many prominent numismatists associated with the United States large cents, but not one has ever equaled the contributions and accomplishments of Dr. William H. Sheldon.” It was he who took 128 large cent from the ANS collection and substituted others of lesser quality. There does not seem to be an accession record for this item.
- A nicely bound little book, 7-1/4” in height, in a slip-case covered with marbled paper, labeled on the spine “French War-Time Currency 1914-1917.” It contains 114 municipal emergency notes “remboursable après le guerre.” This was a 1967 gift of Samuel R. Milbank, President of the ANS from 1960 to 1978, and contains also his careful handwritten captions and typed introduction. He states “the present collection of these notes is believed to be complete.” The individual notes have yet to be catalogued. Along the same lines, a large heavy album was found that once contained “the greatest collection of greater and post [-war] Russian paper ever made” according to the donor, Farran Zerbe, who gave us the album in 1943. It was put together by an unnamed diplomat who was in Russia during the revolutionary period. Many of the items have been removed and integrated into our main collection, but there are still 287 pieces that await cataloguing. Another album has 177 “Cash Substitutes in the Panic of 1907,” the collection of A. Piatt Andrew, with his article on the subject tipped onto the first page of the album. This was the gift of Helen A. Patch in 1958. Yet another album, donated by Wayte Raymond in 1940, contains 546 French revolutionary assignats. All of these albums and some others of less interest should be catalogued by volunteer experts, once we have relocated to the new building.
- A very dusty flat cardboard carton that, frankly, we are afraid to open. It is labeled “tobacco leaves.” One can poke a finger into it and feel, through a plastic wrapper, what indeed seem to be the stems of tobacco leaves. It is perfectly legitimate, of course, for the ANS to own tobacco leaves, which were used as currency (by the barrel) in early colonial Virginia. The carton and its contents are best left alone until someone can deal with them properly.


SAHIDE SANIN // Dalston Calling
As the industrial prominence of Dalston in the London Borough of Hackney diminished, the area encountered recognisable patterns of disinvestment and degradation. Today, property speculation and development continue to gather momentum, bringing to the surface the paradoxes of urban regeneration.
These photographs attempt to capture a moment of transition – a phase in the physical and social transformation of a part of London which shares many characteristics with cities experiencing similar change across continental Europe.
Sahidé Sanin is a filmmaker and photographer and is currently based in London. Her work is concerned with representations of modernity, architecture and hybridity.

Lord Palmerston's foreign policy led to British mastery of the seas but also the burden of imperialism. So is he an appropriate hero for George W. Bush? asks Miles Taylor.
When thousands of anti-war demonstrators brought London to a halt on March 21, Tony Blair was not the sole target of their anger. A British prime minister from the reign of Queen Victoria was also singled out for abuse.
Protesters homed in on the statue of Lord Palmerston in Parliament Square, daubing the slogan "another warmonger" across his feet.
Palmerston died in 1865. Yet the reputation of his strong-arm foreign policy lives on, especially in the US. A recent episode of the TV series The Simpsons had Homer arguing with Moe the barman over whether Pitt the Younger or Palmerston deserved the accolade of greatest British prime minister ever. More seriously, White House and Pentagon commentators have been quick to note the parallels between Palmerston's British bulldog spirit and George W. Bush's adoption of the role of global policeman since the terrorist attacks of September 11.
In particular, the apparent contradiction of America's support for Saddam Hussein in the 1980s prior to his identification as public enemy number one has been explained away by defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld with the argument that the US has no permanent allies, only permanent interests.
Palmerston said much the same thing in 1848, telling parliament that Britain had "no eternal allies... and no perpetual enemies". Moreover, Bush's promise to defend American lives wherever they are under threat recalls the British prime minister's famous "civis Romanus sum" speech of June 1850, when, like the Romans, he vowed to protect Englishmen and English interests overseas just as he would at home.
For Americans, Palmerston recalls the days when Britain was a European military and economic giant, hawkish and resolute in its defence of global security. At that time, the US was the new kid on the block - a small, defenceless new republic, barely able to keep its states united, let alone ready to take on the rest of the world.
Now the roles are reversed. As Robert Kagan, author of the highly regarded Paradise and Power: America and Europe in the New World Order, has pointed out, the European powers have become dove-like and multilateralist, whereas the US has come to rely on the blunt diplomacy of the preemptive strike. No wonder Palmerston, who sent gunboats into Greece, Portugal, the Persian Gulf, China and even the sea lanes of America itself, should have become such a model.
But how merited is Palmerston's reputation as global bully? This week, an international conference hosted by the University of Southampton will subject the life and times of the former British prime minister to closer scrutiny. Scholars from around the world, including the US, France and Japan, will discuss all aspects of his political career and his colourful personal life.
Inevitably, his foreign policy will loom large, and it is highly unlikely that the modern Pentagon's version of Palmerston will be endorsed by much of the latest research on offer. For as historians have been arguing for some time, Palmerston's foreign policy was as much a matter of bluff and brinkmanship as of military might. Dwarfed by the standing conscript armies of continental Europe and mindful of keeping domestic taxation to a minimum, Palmerston's Britain could only stand and watch as, first, Louis Napoleon of France, and, then, Otto von Bismarck of Prussia, tightened their grip on the destinies of smaller European states.
His bluff was called on two occasions - the Crimean war of 1854-56, and the Schleswig-Holstein crisis of 1864. In both instances, British diplomats were forced to concede to the autocratic regimes of the Continent. Beyond Europe, it was a different matter, however, for Palmerston's attempts to maintain the balance of power were bolstered by the presence of the British navy. As prime minister between 1855 and 1858, and again from 1859 to 1865, he oversaw the evolution of the Royal Navy from wooden ships to "ironclads", in the process ignoring both the mid-Victorian peace lobby and his own chancellor, William Gladstone, who opposed war in favour of retrenchment.
So armed, Britain policed the oceans of the world. The frontier of its commercial interests expanded into China, Japan, South America, west Africa, and Persia. Such a policy was not without short-term success.
Palmerston's navy ensured that the Mediterranean did not become a "French lake", kept the Persian Gulf free of Russian encroachment and saw off pirates and slave traders in the China seas.
Even the "special relationship" was not sacrosanct. During the American civil war, Palmerston's navy became embroiled in conflict at sea with ships supporting the North's struggle against the South.
But all this came at a longer-term cost. The more Palmerston's navy policed the world, the more Britain was drawn into annexing territory and sending in troops to quell resistance, and civil servants to tax HM government's newest colonial subjects.
After all, it was in the heyday of Palmerston's influence in the mid-Victorian decades that so much of the map of the world began to be painted red. How quickly the age of naval mastery gave way to the age of imperialism. When enthusing about their favourite British prime minister, Americans may wish to heed that lesson above all.
Miles Taylor is professor of modern British history at the University of Southampton. The three-day Palmerston conference begins on Friday.

What Is “Workplace Culture”?
In recent years, the phrase workplace culture has become increasingly common. Put simply, the “culture” of a workplace is the totality of policies, social norms, and modes of interpersonal communication that comprise the general atmosphere of an office. In other words, the phrase “workplace culture” refers to what it feels like to operate and work within a particular work environment. It’s the total of every individual employee’s day-to-day experience within the workplace.
A healthy, vibrant, and positive workplace culture is one that’s productive and efficient while also characterized by feelings of trust, camaraderie, and respect. A decayed, defective, or broken workplace culture, on the other hand, is one that stifles freedom of expression and values profit over people.
What are some additional telltale signs that a workplace culture is in desperate need of repair?
How Can You Tell If Your Company Culture is Broken?
In order to optimize our employees’ experience at work, it’s important to build an optimized workplace culture. And that, in turn, needs to start with an understanding of how to recognize the symptoms of a suboptimal workplace culture.
Here are four reliable signs that your workplace culture is in disrepair:
- High employee turnover rates. Does your company struggle to hold on to talented employees for long periods of time? If so, it might be time to rethink your employee retention strategy.
- Lack of communication among employees. In an ideal workplace culture, employees have the freedom and comfort to be able to make jokes, socialize, and openly communicate their opinions and ideas (so long as it does not interfere with their work or that of anyone else, obviously). If a workplace feels tense, censored, or silent, it’s time for a change.
- Unnecessarily strict workplace policies. Of course, some rules are essential to facilitate productivity and disincentivize misbehavior. But at the same time, too many rules can stifle creativity and independent thought. It’s important to strive to build a workplace culture that balances rules with freedom.
- Employees rarely interact with managers. This is a reliable sign that your workplace culture has become hyper-hierarchical. Ideally, you want to cultivate a working environment in which employees feel comfortable approaching and communicating with their managers.

After a couple of delays, Drake finally got his Toronto concert stop on Tuesday night and told the hometown crowd he holds the city up as an example of peace and harmony.
The rapper told the audience at the Scotiabank Arena that the city he grew up in built and sustained him during his rise to the top of the world of commercial music. But he also praised the “values” of Toronto.
“I’m forever grateful, everywhere I go, I carry the value of this city with me,” he said. “Every night that I go and I do a show in America, I tell them that this is how the world is supposed to work.' "
“You see, tonight, we got 17,000 people inside one building from all races, from all places, and all we are doing is just listening to music, and smoking and drinking — and enjoying our lives. And I want you to know that that’s something that I learned right here in Toronto.
“You made me the man I am today, you made me the artist I am today.”
Have your say
Drake’s tour dates with Migos were delayed by 10 days from Aug. 10-12 to Aug. 20-22, and then the Aug. 20 show was postponed again, for undisclosed reasons. Drake used the day off to visit a sick fan in the hospital.
The Toronto shows come in the place of Drake’s annual OVO Fest concert around this time of year, and there was one OVO-style surprise guest: fellow rap star Travis Scott, whose album Astroworld is currently No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard album chart, who performed “SICKO MODE” and “goosebumps."
The tour continues with another show at the Scotiabank Arena on Wednesday night.

LOS ANGELES —The well-known therapist and author fatally attacked at her Hollywood Hills home this weekend had twice sought restraining orders against the former boyfriend arrested on suspicion of her murder.
Amie Harwick applied for orders of protection against Gareth Pursehouse in 2011 and 2012, electronic dockets from Los Angeles Superior Court show.
Police investigating her death early Saturday morning said a restraining order barring him from contact with her had expired. She had seen Pursehouse, 41, two weeks ago and recently expressed fear of him, police said.
Harwick, 38, was a licensed marriage and family therapist who wrote the 2014 book “The New Sex Bible for Women” and was once engaged to comedian and “Price Is Right” host Drew Carey.
Court records show that Harwick obtained a temporary restraining order against Pursehouse in June 2011 but apparently did not show up for a hearing the following month. A judge in Van Nuys dismissed the order because of “lack of prosecution,” the docket states.
Nine months later, Harwick went back to the same courthouse and got another temporary restraining order. In an April 2012 hearing on whether to extend the protective order, she and Pursehouse both gave evidence, and the judge granted her request for protection, according to the docket.
What led her to seek the restraining orders and the terms of those orders were not disclosed in the dockets, and the files were not available Monday because of the Presidents Day holiday.
Police were summoned to Harwick’s residence early Saturday morning following reports of a woman screaming. Officers found her unconscious and mortally wounded under a third-floor balcony with injuries consistent with a fall. Her roommate, who met arriving officers in the street, said Harwick was attacked in the home and he had narrowly escaped by jumping a wall, authorities said.
In a news release, the Los Angeles Police Department said investigators searching for clues in Harwick’s home found “possible evidence of a struggle in the upstairs as well as forced entry to the residence.”
“A canvass of the area located further evidence of an intruder (suspect) entering the property and leaving after the murder,” police said.
Pursehouse was taken into custody by an FBI-LAPD fugitive task force in Playa del Rey on Saturday afternoon. He is being held on $2 million bail, according to jail records.
