The design I shared in my last post has been tweaked just a little more. I decided the piece would be perfect over the mantel in the living room.
So I rearranged the composition, printed out a full size mock-up and taped it in place over the fireplace. The last adjustment before I transfer to fabric is to trim half an inch from the bottom and add it to the top. That way the motifs at the top are not cut off.

Does Cycling Increase Testosterone
Does Cycling Increase Testosterone?
Cycling has gained immense popularity as a form of exercise and transportation. It not only provides a great cardio workout but also offers numerous health benefits. One common question that arises among cyclists is whether cycling can increase testosterone levels. Testosterone, a hormone found in both males and females, plays a crucial role in various bodily functions such as muscle growth, bone density, and overall well-being. In this article, we will explore the relationship between cycling and testosterone levels.
The Impact of Cycling on Testosterone Levels
1. Cycling as an Endurance Exercise
Regular exercise, including cycling, has been proven to have a positive impact on testosterone levels. Engaging in endurance exercises like cycling can increase the production of testosterone in the body. When you cycle, your heart rate increases, and you engage multiple muscle groups, which stimulates the release of testosterone.
2. Intensity and Duration
The intensity and duration of your cycling sessions can also influence testosterone levels. High-intensity cycling, such as sprinting or hill climbs, can lead to a temporary boost in testosterone levels. On the other hand, longer duration rides at a moderate intensity can help maintain healthy testosterone levels over time.
3. Weight Loss and Body Composition
Cycling is an excellent way to shed excess weight and improve body composition. Studies have shown that losing excess body fat can help increase testosterone levels, as fat cells convert testosterone into estrogen. By reducing body fat through regular cycling, you can maintain a healthy balance of testosterone in your body.
4. Rest and Recovery
Rest and recovery are essential components of any exercise routine. Overtraining or not giving your body enough time to recover can negatively impact testosterone levels. It is important to listen to your body and incorporate rest days into your cycling schedule to allow your hormone levels to stabilize and prevent burnout.
5. Cycling and Cortisol Levels
Cortisol, often referred to as the stress hormone, can have a negative impact on testosterone levels. Prolonged or intense cycling sessions can increase cortisol production, which may temporarily suppress testosterone production. However, when cycling is done in moderation and combined with proper rest and recovery, the cortisol levels can be balanced, allowing testosterone to thrive.
FAQs about Cycling and Testosterone Levels
Q: Can cycling increase testosterone levels in women?
A: Yes, cycling can increase testosterone levels in women. However, it is important to note that women naturally have lower testosterone levels compared to men. Engaging in cycling as a form of exercise can help women maintain healthy testosterone levels and enjoy the associated benefits.
Q: How long should I cycle to see an increase in testosterone levels?
A: The duration required to see an increase in testosterone levels through cycling can vary from person to person. For some individuals, a few weeks of regular cycling may be sufficient, while others may require several months of consistent exercise. It is important to maintain a regular cycling routine and listen to your body’s signals.
Q: Can cycling improve sexual health in men?
A: Yes, cycling can have a positive impact on sexual health in men. Regular exercise, including cycling, improves blood flow, reduces stress, and enhances overall well-being, which can contribute to improved sexual function.
Q: Are there any negative effects of cycling on testosterone levels?
A: While cycling can increase testosterone levels, certain factors can potentially have a negative impact. Prolonged or intense cycling without adequate rest and recovery can lead to increased cortisol production, which may temporarily suppress testosterone levels. It is important to strike a balance and listen to your body’s needs.
Q: Can cycling boost testosterone levels in older individuals?
A: Yes, cycling can help boost testosterone levels in older individuals. Regular exercise, including cycling, has been shown to have positive effects on hormone levels, muscle mass, and overall well-being in older adults.
In conclusion, cycling can indeed increase testosterone levels, particularly when combined with regular exercise, proper rest, and a healthy lifestyle. Whether you are a seasoned cyclist or a beginner, incorporating cycling into your fitness routine can have numerous benefits, including improved testosterone levels. However, it is crucial to listen to your body, avoid overtraining, and prioritize rest and recovery. So, hop on your bike, enjoy the open road, and reap the rewards of cycling for both your physical and hormonal well-being.

Key Findings Forty-four states levy a corporate income tax. Rates range from 2.5 percent in North Carolina to 12 percent in Iowa. Six states—Alaska, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania—levy top marginal corporate income tax rates of 9 percent or higher. Eight states—Arizona, Colorado, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Carolina, and Utah—have
Over the past month, Oregon’s Joint Committee on Student Success Subcommittee on Revenue has been evaluating options to provide additional revenue for Oregon’s public education system. The committee hopes to raise about $2 billion to help cover Oregon’s structural budget deficit and has heard testimony from the Oregon business community, a coalition of business and
This week, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers (D) vetoed Assembly Bill 4, legislation introduced by House Speaker Robin Vos (R) that would have provided targeted low- and middle-income tax relief through a more generous standard deduction in the state’s individual income tax code. Like many states, Wisconsin offers a standard deduction that reduces the amount of
The individual income tax is one of the most significant sources of revenue for state and local governments. In fiscal year (FY) 2016, the most recent year of data available, individual income taxes generated 23.5 percent of state and local tax collections, just less than general sales taxes (23.6 percent). The map below shows combined
In New York, Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) is staring down a $2.3 billion shortfall, and he thinks he’s identified the culprit: the state and local tax (SALT) deduction cap. It’s a politically convenient scapegoat, but it misses the point—and more importantly, it misses an opportunity to improve the state’s uncompetitive tax code. Once a skeptic
Key Findings Gross receipts taxes, also known as “turnover taxes,” have returned as a revenue option for policymakers after being dismissed for decades as inefficient and unsound tax policy. Their appeal comes as many states are looking to replace revenue lost by eroding corporate income tax bases and as a way to limit revenue volatility.
Lawmakers have recently announced plans that would increase the tax burden on wealthy Americans, ranging from higher marginal income tax rates to wealth taxes. These proposals are flawed in several ways, including in their lack of understanding of tax history. While marginal income tax rates have come down from their highs of 91 and 92
Key Findings Forty-five states and the District of Columbia collect statewide sales taxes. Local sales taxes are collected in 38 states. In some cases, they can rival or even exceed state rates. The five states with the highest average combined state and local sales tax rates are Tennessee (9.47 percent), Louisiana (9.45 percent), Arkansas (9.43
The new federal tax on Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) is something of a misnomer: it’s certainly global and it’s definitely income, but the rest of it is, at best, an approximation. It’s not exclusively levied on low-taxed income, nor just on the economic returns from intangible property. So what is GILTI, why might states
Bill Bradley did not like sports betting. The former New York Knicks star forward felt it sent the wrong message to young athletes and undermined the integrity of the game. So when Bradley transitioned from the basketball court to the U.S. Senate, he championed a nationwide ban on sports betting. It was not, perhaps, the
The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy is out today with a report recommending how states should approach taxing legalized marijuana. It’s a topic we’ve written about extensively, and based on that research, we have some concerns with the report’s suggestion that states tax marijuana based on the weight of the amount sold rather than
State sales tax bases have two key areas in need of improvement: in some ways, they are too narrow, and in other ways, they are too broad. State sales tax bases have narrowed over time as new exemptions have been created, such as exemptions for groceries and prescription drugs. Another factor contributing to the shrinking
The Virginia General Assembly, the New World’s oldest continuous lawmaking body, began its 400th year amid pageantry and an unintended tax increase on which, thus far, that body has had no say. The House’s ceremonial mace, a symbol of the legislature’s prerogative, was escorted into the chamber by a company of pikemen in colonial garb.
The Arkansas Tax Reform and Relief Task Force concluded its work earlier this month, referring several tax changes to the General Assembly for its consideration in January when the legislative session begins. Amidst the flurry of activity, it’s difficult for everyday Arkansans to know how these tax reforms will impact their budget and their tax
This week’s state tax map examines states that have a throwback rule in their corporate tax code. Throwback rules are not widely understood, but they have a notable impact on business location and investment decisions. For purposes of corporate taxation, multistate businesses are required to apportion their income among the states in which they operate.
Voters in San Francisco adopted Proposition C earlier this month, adding another gross receipts tax to the city’s businesses. It is a particularly pernicious form of taxation enjoying a resurgence at the state and local levels, leaving San Francisco about to face a legal quagmire that threatens to halt the tax’s enactment. Proposition C introduces
Unfortunately, Chicago’s poorly-designed “Netflix tax” is still alive and kicking. In 2015, Chicago’s Department of Finance determined that its 9 percent amusement tax applied to streaming services, such as Netflix, Spotify, and Hulu. This interpretation has been challenged in court, but as Bloomberg Tax recently reported, Sony has voluntarily agreed to collect the tax for
Under the federal individual alternative minimum tax (AMT), many taxpayers are required to calculate their income tax liability under two different systems and pay the higher amount. Established in 1969, the federal AMT was created when Congress discovered that 155 high-income taxpayers were eligible to claim so many deductions that they ended up with no
This year, “Cyber Monday” signifies more than just a chance to get the best post-Black Friday deals. It also kicks off the first holiday online shopping season since the U.S. Supreme Court sales tax ruling in South Dakota v. Wayfair. It’s a big step but also doesn’t represent a huge sea change, given the evolution
Like the federal income tax, 33 states and the District of Columbia have a graduated-rate state individual income tax, with tax rates that get progressively higher with increases in income. However, significant variation exists among states in both the number of tax brackets and the income threshold at which the top tax rate kicks in.

Is J Street Anti-Israel?
Israeli lawmakers are engaging in the emotionally satisfying act of accusing liberal American Jews of trying to undermine them. Since when is Israel beyond reproach?
Israeli lawmakers have been busy this week. Among other things, they engaged in lengthy lucubrations on Wednesday about whether or not J Street, the Jewish organization based in Washington, DC that seeks to promote peace talks with the Palestinians, should, as the Washington Post puts it, be declared "anti-Israel." The meeting is yet another in a series of self-destructive Israeli acts. Instead of addressing, or even acknowledging, the fact that J Street apparently has over 100,000 members in the American Jewish community, the lawmakers are trying to delegitimize it.
The brouhaha centers on the fact that J Street was critical of the Obama administration for vetoing a United Nations resolution denouncing Israeli settlements. But since when are the settlements beyond criticism? By trying to tar anyone who has a policy disagreement as treasonous, these lawmakers are doing themselves--and Israel--no favors. They seem to want a code of omerta to prevail rather than genuine public debate--debate that, more often than not, flourishes inside Israel itself.
What they do want is for organizations abroad to serve as uncritical emissaries for the Israeli government. But an organization that exists purely at the behest of the Israeli government would have no crediblity. Agree or disagree with J Street. But it seems hard to argue that it hasn't injected some vigor into the discussion in America over Israeli policy. Yet Kadima member Otniel Schneller announced that "J Street is not a Zionist organization. It cannot be pro-Israel."
Yes, it can. Otniel's remark gets back to the issue of what constitutes being "pro-Israel." Is it reflexively endorsing whatever the Israeli government decides is in the country's best interest? Or is it trying to offer friendly advice at a time of great peril for Israel?
The truth is that Israel should be grabbing the chance to cut a peace deal with the Palestinians at a moment when the Arab world is in upheaval. It needs to detach itself from the West Bank. And it needs to focus on security in the Gaza strip.
Instead, it sounds as though leading Israeli lawmakers are engaging in the emotionally satisfying act of trying to accuse liberal American Jews of trying to undermine them. Perhaps a resolution in the Knesset will, as Jeremy Ben-Ami, the head of J Street, worries, succeed in ostracizing the organization. But it won't be able to quash the sentiments that the group represents.

How Royal APOLLO VTS solves logistics problems in the mother & baby care industry
Branch: Mother & baby care industry
Type of machine (s):
- 2 Heavy Duty Spiral Conveyor 1700-600
- 1 Single Lane Spiral Conveyor 1600-600
Type of products: Cartons
E-commerce has grown enormously due to the convenience, value, and choice it offers consumers. The increase in online shopping generates new economic growth and spurs innovation among sellers by maximizing the efficiency of their supply chain. Our customer, a professional organization in the mother & baby care industry, is facing the same trend. They formed a mature business system with a physical store and an e-commerce platform. To meet the daily shipment demand of tens of thousands of boxes, the logistics center was expanded in a second phase and now counts a total of 31.000 square meters.
Improving conveying efficiency
Offering the right variety and amount of products is an ongoing challenge for most businesses. This also applies to our customer, who is facing a high SKU count. This results in increasing manual operations, which in turn negatively impacts labor intensity and low conveying efficiency. Therefore, their main goal was to improve the automation level. The customer hopes to meet the conveying needs of multi-in & multi-out inductions between floors through a variety of mixed material conveying methods.
Technical solutions based on customer needs
- Heavy Duty Spiral conveyor to improve the efficiency of multi-floor transport
Besides the multi-in & multi-out inductions, the customer has a high volume with up to 2500 boxes per hour and products weighing up to 30kg. Our Apollo Heavy Duty Spiral Conveyors are an excellent solution in projects such as this. They are designed in response to the need for conveyors that can reach a greater height and that can handle more weight. It uses a 1-inch chain design, with a maximum load of 100 kg/m, while the size of the slats are also wider and thicker than a standard model which uses ¾-inch chain, with a maximum load of 50 kg/m.
- Reduce customer maintenance costs due to high quality
Thanks to the high quality of our chains and slats, the Apollo Spiral Conveyors ensure transport efficiency and stability. At the same time, abrasive resistance is stronger with a good service life, which reduces maintenance frequency and decreases downtime of the machines.
- Custom-made design
Every Royal Apollo machine is tailored to the customer needs. Besides meeting technical needs, the spiral conveyors are produced according to the brand colors of the customer. In this project, the newly built warehouse is vivid and dynamic with the color of the spiral conveyors impressively standing out.
- On-site installation
In order to dispel the customer's concerns about the installation, the design has been based on the on-site construction requirements. Due to move-in space limitations, the spirals are all shipped in parts and quickly assembled on site, which greatly reduces the equipment admission and impact on other site equipment.
Cost reduction and efficiency improvement
Committed to reducing our customers’ total costs and increasing line efficiency, Royal Apollo provides professional vertical transport solutions that help customers improve conveying automation and reliability. We are proud to have contributed in making the delivery efficiency of this mother & baby care logistics center exceed its initial requirements at the beginning of the planning!

Hello Sunday! It’s autumn here in Australia (known as fall for some of you) and the weather is absolutely glorious. Warm during the day, balmy at night and not a touch of wind at all this weekend. Yesterday we played tourist with family who have visited us and did a high ropes course. This is me hanging out at 10m above the ground with one of the Little Miss Papercrafts.
I have no fear of heights, but wow – some of those obstacles are challenging! Quite the change in pace from the comfort of the craft room!
Today I’m sharing with you a quick and easy duo of cards. They are made using the Pierced Blooms Dies – and all the hard work is done with the detail in the dies.
As suggested by the product name, when you cut these dies using your cutting machine, it pierces all the holes you see and makes them so pretty!
The colours for my flowers are Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous Grape, Magenta Madness and Just Jade for the leaves.
I made two variations of this card with a subtle differences to how I arranged the flowers how they worked in with the sentiment. Even the die cut for the sentiment has a gorgeous pierced edging.
The DSP for this card is the True Love DSP – the black and white patterns are a staple for me this catalogue. I’ve used the Subtle Embossing Folder on the background layer to add a bit more texture and complement the stitching.
The sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set. It’s such a pretty arrangement of fonts and fits so perfectly in the die.
Enjoy the rest of your day! There will be no adventure for me today, I’m taking it easy and enjoying the level ground of my craft room!

Blade: 20" / Overall: 26.50", Perfect for close quarter attacks, the Ginuntings are shaped like a beak as the tip of these swords are curved downward, similar to Kukris of the Gurkhas. Ginuntings are the official swords of the Philippine Marines. The Ginunting is easier to use as a utility tool, as jungle bolos, for clearing brush, slaughter tools for hunting, chopping small pieces of wood for fire and a perfect weapon to carry. It is common to see a Ginunting along with M16s and the other firearms used for war in the jungles of the Philippines.

This ‘plug and play’ solution is armed with high-voltage hybrid switchgear, protection and control solutions.
“Wherever you are in the world, access to an affordable, reliable and sustainable source of power is a basic prerequisite for human society and progress. Disruptions to energy provision can result in severe consequences, which is why we are continuously innovating technologies, such as this modular mobile substation disaster recovery solution, to enable customers to provide stable and competitive sources of power and further reduce carbon emissions.”Niklas Persson, Managing Director of the Grid Integration Business Unit at Hitachi ABB Power Grids.
Solution design was made having in mind areas exposed to uncertain situations and natural catastrophes, such as storms, flooding and earthquakes. Thing that separates it from the competition is 24/7 readiness to switch between existing substation and it self.
Future design doesn’t stop there, customers’s specific needs are met by option to choose different voltage range and standards of the grid. Installation process is squeezed into hours, not days.
Hitachi ABB Power Grids designed the solution to face any limitations and hurdles and still delivers the results.


American Apparel Appoints Google Executive Laura Lee To Board
Struggling retailer American Apparel named Google executive Laura Lee as the second woman director on its board. Lee is head of East Coast content partnerships for Google/YouTube. The company, which for years aired racy ads and battled sexual harassment lawsuits, last month appointed Colleen Brown, former Fisher Communications chief executive, in a board reshuffle. American Apparel is still looking for a replacement for its CEO and founder Dov Charney, who was suspended for allegedly misusing corporate funds and helping spread nude photos of a former employee.

Violence, bloodshed, disease, horror and death. In the Arb, dangers lurk at every corner, and every day is a new struggle to survive, but not for humans. Unlike Arb residents, we as visitors can just relax and enjoy the Arb without worrying about predation, poison or pathogens. But you may still wonder what could harm you, maybe because you just want to be extra cautious or maybe because you are the type of adventurer for whom a sense of threat is integral to the excitement for nature.
No animals in the Arb will prey on or initiate attacks against humans. The biggest predatory mammals in the Arb are coyotes, but coyote attacks on people are very rare. Since they fear humans, coyotes will likely flee before Arb visitors see them. It would be very lucky if you actually ever encounter one! There are no bears living in the Arb or adjacent natural areas, but based on track evidence, one or two bears might pass through the Arb once every few years. Due to their very occasional and brief presence, no one has reported seeing a bear in the Arb in decades.
Poison is also a minimal concern given the assumption that we don’t randomly put things in our mouths. However, there are three plants that might cause you pain through contact: wild parsnip (which only blooms from June to August), poison ivy and stinging nettles. When venturing off of trails, the best way to avoid contact with those is to wear long pants, socks and closed-toe shoes and learn to identify them.
If we have to pinpoint the most serious health concern in the Arb, it probably would be ticks, which are most active in spring and fall. Specifically, black-legged ticks (or “deer ticks”) are a concern because they carry Lyme disease and other pathogens. Fortunately, a tick must feed for at least 24 hours to transmit the disease-causing bacteria, which means someone who encounters one can have time to notice and remove it. Again, wearing long pants and socks helps, and checking our clothing and bodies thoroughly after a trip will make the chance of infection close to negligible.

John Paul Jones Is Writing an Opera
Jones recently discussed the project, which is based on August Strindberg's 'The Ghost Sonata,' with Red Carpet TV News, saying he was drawn to opera because "It's unlike anything else. It's the emotion, the passion."
It also sounds like it's relatively slow going for Jones, who said that while he's "halfway through the first act," writing a piece of music for this medium presents some unique challenges. Asked to name the biggest one, he responded, "The sheer scale of it, I think. I don't know. I'm probably about to find out what the challenges are."
Talk soon turned, of course, to the possibility of a Led Zeppelin reunion, and although Jones refused to rule out the possibility, he did point out that he's got other things going on at the moment. Saying he only has time to "do little gigs that I don't have to prepare too much for," he discouraged rumors of a 2014 tour by saying, "2014's full of opera for me at the moment."

Missed Opportunity: No Funding for Breakfast After the Bell
On Friday June 8, State Budget Conference Committee released their close-out budget plan for the Legislature and Governor Brown- and it did not include funding for Breakfast After the Bell grants.
While the Assembly Subcommittee on Education Finance had approved $1 million in funding to extend Breakfast After the Bell Grants prioritized for high-poverty schools and chronic absenteeism, the Senate did not recommend a similar investment. Ultimately, the Conference Committee went with the Senate recommendation to let the Breakfast After the Bell funding expire.
Unfortunately, the conference budget deal will allow the California Department of Education's successful Breakfast After the Bell Grant program to come to a close at the end of this month.
CFPA looks forward to future opportunities to improve access to school breakfast to support student health and well-being, and to improve attendance and academic achievement.School Breakfast and Attendance Infographic

Dock & Buoy Regulations
The installation of docks and buoys in lakes within the CSRD are regulated by CSRD Bylaws. Other levels of government are also involved. The BC Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and Transport Canada also have rules and regulations concerning docks and buoys and may require permits.
On August 16, 2012, the CSRD adopted Lakes Zoning Bylaw Number 900 that applies to Electoral Area C (South Shuswap), Electoral Area E (Rural Sicamous) and Electoral Area F (North Shuswap) and specifically for the following lakes: Adams Lake, Humamilt Lake, Hunakwa Lake, Little White Lake, Mara Lake, Shuswap Lake, White Lake.
On August 21, 2014, the CSRD adopted Electoral Area B Zoning Bylaw Number 851 (Rural Revelstoke), which includes a Foreshore Water zone. This zone applies to the following watercourses and water bodies: Armstrong Lake, Columbia River, Kinbasket Lake, Lake Revelstoke, Staubert Lake, Trout Lake, Upper Arrow Lake.
On April 19, 2018, the CSRD adopted Ranchero/Deep Creek Zoning Bylaw Number 751, which includes Foreshore zones. These zones apply to Gardom Lake.
On March 1, 2022, the CSRD adopted a New Electoral Area E Zoning Bylaw Number 841 that applies to Electoral Area E. This applies to lakes located along the Trans-Canada Highway in Electoral Area E and the Eagle River. Shuswap Lake and Mara Lake are regulated under Lakes Zoning Bylaw Number 900.
Currently, if your land is located in Electoral Area B, E, F, or C you may need to apply for a Development Permit for your dock, buoy, or swimming platform. Development Permits are designated in an Official Community Plan (OCP). See table below to view the lakes zoning and foreshore and water development permit area guidelines.
Provincial Private Moorage Program
The Province made changes to its Provincial Private Moorage Program in January 2017. These changes did not change the regulations in Bylaw Number 900, Bylaw Number 851, or the requirements for a Foreshore and Water Development Permit.

Ron Zeff’s Carmel Partners has secured a large loan for its planned 66-story residential tower in Long Island City.
The San Francisco-based developer got $364.8 million of Wells Fargo for its development site at 43-30 and 43-16 24th Street in Queens, according to property records filed Wednesday.
Carmel bought the Court Square site from Stawski Partners in March for $200 million, the second-highest amount ever paid for a development site in Queens. Only TF Cornerstone’s 2018 $285 million acquisition of a site in the Hunter’s Point area was more costly.
It was planned at the time of acquisition that Carmel would construct a 900-unit apartment building on the site. The development site qualified for the since-expired 421a tax abatement.
It was not immediately clear whether Carmel’s plans for the site had changed since March. The developer did not immediately comment on Wednesday.
Stawski, who began assembling the development site in 1994, filed plans in 2016 for a 66-story residential tower covering more than 850,000 square feet. The site is just on the edge of the Court Square area which was part of a rezoning in 2001 to allow high rises. The rezoning did not allow buildings taller than five stories west of the tower, preserving the expected views of Manhattan.
Carmel was occupied elsewhere in the city. It acquired a development site on the Upper East Side in January for $74 million. The developer has filed plans to demolish buildings at 1487 First Avenue and 356 East 78th Street to make way for a 24-story, 209,000 square foot project. It would include 94 residential units and over 7,000 square feet of ground floor retail.


By Adnan Basic
After one of the most eventful summers in NBA history, fans are incredibly excited to see what the 2018/19 campaign has in store.
The season officially kicked off last Tuesday with two Eastern Conference powers facing off, as the Boston Celtics took on the Philadelphia 76ers. It was a close game until the end, with the Celtics running away in the final quarter in front of a rauces Boston crowd. The nightcap saw the Western Conference in the spotlight, with the defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder. Many thought this would be a blowout, but the Thunder were able to keep it tight. However, the sheer quality of the Warriors got them over the line. It was a hot opening to the year that followed an entertaining summer break.
The biggest storyline of the offseason was centered around LeBron James and what team he’d choose to play for. After losing in the finals once again last season with the Cleveland Cavaliers, most fans and experts were expecting him to head out to greener pastures. Although every team wanted him, only a number of them could afford him, and even less could realistically bring in “King James.” As the dog days of summer rolled on, the shortlist narrowed down to a few teams. In the end, LeBron decided to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers, which was a smart decision both on and off the court. LA has one of the most exciting young rosters in the league and those young players will only further blossom under the leadership of James. Getting to move to Los Angeles was just a big of a reason for him to sign, as James is in the twilight of his career, so he’ll get to be closer to the Hollywood lights.
“Lebron’s move to LA was definitely a bold one,” said sophomore journalism major Mohammad Samra. “He’s looking beyond his NBA career by picking LA. He’s near the end of his contract and he’ll become a celebrity figure rather than a top tier basketball player. The West has been the tougher conference in more recent years, so he’s risking Finals appearances to take a much bumpier road to get to a place where he cruised to while playing in the East.”
Although less important, the Kawhi Leonard saga was arguably more intriguing than the James storyline. After becoming a household name in San Antonio, rumors began to surface that there was a rift between Leonard and the Spurs front office. He had missed a large chunk of the season prior, with some doubting the severity of the knee injury that had supposedly been keeping Leonard out of action. There were even reports coming out that the player was actively trying to avoid his coaches and fellow teammates. The messy situation came to a close in mid July, as Leonard was dealt to the Toronto Raptors in a blockbuster trade that saw DeMar Derozan head the other way. Now, all eyes will be up north to see whether or not Leonard will be able to fully recover from his injury problems.
The Chicago Bulls were able to get in on the action as well, signing free agent Jabari Parker to a two year deal worth $40 million. Once considered a potential phenom, injuries have derailed Parkers career so far. A native of Chicago, the Bulls front office will have hopes that a return home will be able to get the best out of the former Simeon product. The move might end up being a shrewd piece of business, but it won’t make the Bulls a playoff team just yet. There is just hope for the future, as a young core of Lauri Markkanen and Zach LaVine showed plenty of promise last year, but this team needs time to grow before they bring playoff basketball back to Chicago.
“I just want to see some improvement,” said sophomore child education major Sara Berrum. “I don’t expect a lot, but hopefully they do a bit better this year. The big thing would just to keep everyone healthy.”
The Bulls first game did not turn out how they planned, with the Bulls falling to the Philadelphia 76ers by a score of 127-108. After dropping 41 points in the first quarter, including a stretch where 13 consecutive shots went in, the Bulls were outclassed the rest of the game.
With all that considered, it still seems to be a one horse race when it comes to predicting an NBA champion. The Golden State Warriors were already the best team in basketball, and they got even better this offseason after signing All-Star Demarcus Cousins. The big man had his season cut short due to injury last year, which allowed the reigning champions to pick him up for a much cheaper deal than usual. When he gets back to full health, Golden State will have one of the most talented rosters in NBA history, which almost guarantees them a fourth title in five years.
“It’ll be the Warriors again.” said Ian Jackson, a junior journalism major at Roosevelt. “They are already dangerous now and when Cousins comes back they will have 5 all-stars on the court at the same time, which hasn’t been done before. They will be a scary team to face each and every game.”

A new app has been launched that reveals the hidden stories of Wirral which can be viewed and explored using a mobile phone.
The project has been led by artist Alan Dunn, who designed the iconic Ray and Julie chairs sculpture on London Road.
By visiting www.fourwordswirral.com on a mobile phone, people can use the free digital art app to place augmented reality sculptures on their travels that reveal stories and hidden connections to where they find themselves.

Alan said the idea started in lockdown when he began walking his dog Lulu and began to explore in more detail the Spital neighbourhood on his own doorstep.
He discovered that Italian prisoners of war were once housed in scout huts on the edge of Dibbinsdale Nature Reserve woods in Spital, not far from where Harold Wilson lived.
The paths through the woods were built by those prisoners of war, which is now a nature reserve and park filled with birdsong.
The final result is that thirty hidden stories have been unearthed – all distilled down to four words each – that reveal connections with slavery, a community in transformation after a massive explosion, hidden viruses and the power of nature and wildlife during a pandemic.

DNS is an abbreviation of Domain Name Server. DNS is a protocol with a specific set of standards for exchanging information on the world wide web as well as numerous personal networks, referred to as the TCP/IP protocol suite.
DNS Servers and IP Addresses
What it basically does is IP conversion. To be more specific, it converts a user friendly domain name such as “example.com” into an IP rather an Internet Protocol address such as 220.127.116.11. An IP address in an identity, hence it is used by networks to find each other. An IP address is similar to a GPS for the world wide web. Network devices as well as computers use IP addresses for giving direction to the website that you are searching for. It is just like when you want to reach a person, a telephone number is dialed in order to call them. However, it is not required to keep a list of IP addresses just like you maintain an address book. We should be grateful to the Domain Name Server for this. The DNS server handles an enormous database which connects domain names to IP addresses. The information from all the nameservers across the Internet is gathered in a central registry.
A Basic Understanding Of Domain Name Server
Whenever you try to access a site on the internet or send an email, what your computer does is that it utilizes a DNS server to find the domain name that you are searching for. This procedure is referred to as DNS name resolution. In other words, the resolution of the domain name to the IP address is done by the DNS server. For instance, when a URL is entered in a web browser like “http://www.backlinkblog.com”, a small piece of the network connection works to resolve the domain name “backlinkblog.com” into an IP address such as 18.104.22.168, for the web servers of SEOHost. You can even enter an IP address like 22.214.171.124 into your internet browser and avoid the whole process of DNS name resolution. But it is very difficult to remember numbers. You are unlikely to remember IP addresses for all the websites which is why domain names are preferred. We can also get redirected due to the fact that many domains use the same IP address.
How Long Does It Take?
Nameservers on other networks can access information in the central registry up to 8 hours after registering .com and .net domain names and up to 48 hours for all other domain name extensions. This period is referred to as the propagation period.
The Internet would shut down really fast if there were no DNS servers. When the connection is made to your Internet Service Provider (ISP), home network or WiFi Network, some crucial network configuration information is sent to your personal computer or mobile handset. This is done by the router or modem that assigns the network address of your computer. That configuration contains the DNS name servers that are supposed to be used by the device while converting DNS names to IP addresses.

73% of Europeans Plan to Travel in the next 6 monthsTourism | June 26, 2022, Sunday // 10:42| views
73% of Europeans plan to travel in the next 6 months, with 60% of them planning to travel more than once during this period, according to a study by the European Commission for Tourism.
“The most enthusiastic travelers this summer are Poles, Spaniards and the Dutch, where three out of four respondents plan summer trips”, said Lublena Dimova, research manager at the European Tourism Commission.
31 percent go to neighboring countries, 30 percent plan to rest in their own country.
The most popular this summer are the holidays lasting 4 - 6 nights.
The data show that people who will rest at sea are more likely to spend longer vacations than those who will prefer a holiday in the mountains or in the city.
Nearly half of the respondents have set aside up to 1,000 euros per person for their upcoming trip. Lyublena Dimova pointed out:
"It should be noted that people's uncertainty about the stability of their personal finances has increased by about 7 percent compared to last summer. Inflation and rising travel prices, in particular airline tickets, are becoming a leading concern for travel in the near future."

A 3.9 magnitude earthquake struck Appin, on Tharawal land 70km South-West of Sydney, at 1:13am this morning.
The quake only lasted 0.87 seconds, but could be felt by people up to 51km away.
An earthquake with a reported 7.9 magnitude hit New Zealand's South Island around 12:02AM local time this morning. Devastating aftershocks and tsunamis quickly followed. It's possible that more aftershocks are to come.
Just a few months after central Italy was battered by a magnitude 6.2 earthquake, the region has been struck again, and harder.
A 7.1 magnitude earthquake hit 130 kilometres north-east of Te Araroa in the early hours of this morning. It was felt from Northland to Wellington in the North Island and in the top of the South Island. A 30 centimetre tsunami was triggered by the quake.
There were a series of aftershocks after the initial quake at 2.37am AEST. The first was a 6.2 magnitude shock at 3.14 AEST, and by 5.10am AEST 57 aftershocks had occurred.
Video: Yesterday, a massive 6.1 magnitude earthquake rocked central Italy. It was followed by nearly 200 aftershocks, devastating whole towns and burying residents under rubble. Over 4000 rescuers have been dispatched and the death toll has jumped to 247, the BBC reports.
It was a day for quake, rattle, and roll on the US West Coast when small earthquakes hit both Los Angeles and the Pacific Northwest on Tuesday. While the pair shared common characteristics, the stories behind why they happened reveal dramatically different Worst Case Scenarios for future earthquakes.

We’ve seen graphitti artists turn vacant walls into art, and yarn bombers turn city scapes into cozy mittens, but this is the first time we’ve seen Paige Smith turn urban decay into beautiful geodes. The artist, who goes by the name “A Common Name”, finds the nooks and crannies of crumbled brick and broken windows and fills them in with folded paper crystals until squalor becomes a beautiful geode.
On her art, Smith says:
“Geodes are formations made and found in nature and my process of using manmade materials and placing them in major cities concurrently signals the tension between nature and industry and celebrates the beauty of urban space. My work is infused with a magical realism that encourages us to pause, to discover, to be present and to find beauty in the mundane.”

California Bill = Path Around Curricular Bottlenecks Through 3rd-Party Online Providers
As numerous mainstream and higher education media outlets have reported--for two, see the New York Times and Inside Higher Education--the California state senate president is poised to introduce a bill that would provide students with a pathway around curricular bottlenecks--introductory courses that they have to have to fulfill degree requirements, but for which they face long wait times to take due to limited capacity. This problem has been particularly severe in California as several years of state budget cuts have reduced institutional capacity to deliver must-have general education courses at the same time as demand for higher education has grown in the face of a difficult economic climate.

Unlike the vast majority of independent films, we decided to film “La Vie Nous Appartient” with a high-end camera - in this case, the Sony F65. This might have seemed a somewhat daunting task, considering our more than low budget, and our choice to film all by hand in a rocky terrain. But it was important to us to give our sensitive story the quality it deserved
Can you make a feature film with an iPhone? Well, "yes" is the answer if you don't mind a slightly fuzzy-looking picture on a big screen, and if you sit far enough away, but you can certainly get a cinematic "look" if you use cinema-type techniques when you make your film, and some software to give your work its finishing touches.
Sony's setting the pace for 4K, from the Lens to the Living Room, to use one of their favourite marketing phrases. And to show their commitment to the format, they've annouced that the're remastering some of their Blu Ray titles from 4K masters. It's good because it's a source of higher quality content for 4K display owners. But RedShark contributor Freya thinks it will also confuse customers. Here's her thoughts on the subject
