The New York Finger Lakes winter festivals & events make it the ideal destination for a holiday getaway or a mid-winter break. Staying in a vacation rental can be a great choice.
The Finger Lakes region located in Central New York produces some of the world’s finest wine. It has a picturesque landscape, unique micro-climate and dozens of charming towns. It is also a culturally vibrant, year-round vacation destination.
The “Finger Lakes” were names by early mapmakers because of the lakes’ long and narrow shape. The eleven glacial lakes and surrounding communities are rich in history.
Seneca Lake and Cayuga Lake are the two of the largest Finger Lakes. They are named for the Iroquois Nation tribes who called the area their ancestral home.
During the 1800s, the Finger Lakes region was an integral part of the Underground Railroad. It was home to abolitionist and humanitarian Harriet Tubman. It was also the birthplace of America’s women’s rights movement.
Today, the New York Finger Lakes beckon visitors with laid-back lakeside villages and eclectic small towns brimming with art, dining and four-season recreation. Add in a wine trail or two, plus the New York’s Finger Lakes winter festivals & events and you have the ideal destination for a holiday getaway or a mid-winter break while staying in a vacation rental.
Here are a few of the best
New York Finger Lakes Winter Festivals & Events!
1. Dickens Christmas in Skaneateles
The quaint lakeside Village of Skaneateles keeps the Ghost of Christmas Past alive with “Dickens Christmas.” This is most perfect of the New York Finger Lakes Winter Festivals & Events for families or those who are in the holiday spirit.
A celebration of the Charles Dickens classic “A Christmas Carol,” this family-friendly holiday tradition stars the holiday miscreant, Ebenezer Scrooge, and a full cast of Dickens characters performing live interactive street theater throughout the village streets. Visitors can take a free horse drawn wagon ride past decorated Victorian mansions. Afterwards they can warm up with complimentary roasted chestnuts and eggnog before joining the Dickens Singers for Christmas caroling.
One of the best New York Finger Lakes Winter Festivals & Events is the Dickens Christmas.
Dickens Christmas kicks off the day after Thanksgiving with the quirky “World’s Smallest Christmas Parade” and continues every weekend until December 23. For more information, check out their calendar of events.
2. Watch ice artisans during the Downtown Ithaca Ice Festival
Located on the edge of Cayuga Lake, Ithaca is home to thousands of energetic young college students and a merry mix of artists, activists and innovators. So it makes sense that instead of complaining about dropping temperatures and wintery precipitation, Ithacans celebrate it with the Downtown Ithaca Ice Festival.
The annual three-day event is held in early December and features professional ice sculptors competing for $9,000 in prizes. Wielding picks and chainsaws, the nationally-known artisans carve awe-inspiring masterpieces from huge blocks of ice while facing elimination during “speed carving” and “carve and deliver” challenges.
The Ice Bar, made entirely of ice, will be serving up local wines, beer and hot cocoa during the festival, while the Saturday’s Chowder Cook-Off will serve up tastings of over 20 different chowders.
Performances including Cosmic Karma Fire Dance and Ithaca Tuba Christmas. Be sure to grab a selfie with the Mt. Pleasant Dog Sled Team.
The 2018 Ithaca Ice Festival opens on the Ithaca Commons on Thursday, December 6, and continues through Saturday, December 8.
3. Toast the season along the Seneca Lake Wine Trail
Another of the great New York Finger Lakes Winter Festivals & Events is the The Seneca Lake Wine Trail.
It offers visitors the opportunity to take in the region’s breathtaking winter beauty while enjoying some of the Finger Lakes most award-winning wines.
“Deck The Halls,” held during select weekends in November and December, celebrates the season with holiday wine and food tastings. This festive wine trail event sells out quickly, so check out the Seneca Lake Facebook Fanpage for up-to-the-minute “Deck The Halls” details.
If you miss the pre-holiday fun, chase away the mid-winter chills during the Seneca Lake Wine Trail’s Bargain Bash, held in early January. The Savory World of Seneca Weekend and Preferred Parings are held in February.
Can’t get enough of the Seneca Lake Wine Trail? Grab a Polar Passport, which is an inexpensive way to enjoy wine sampling at over 30 wineries from early December through the end of March.
4. Find the perfect Finger Lakes ski trail
If you are looking for some of our more active New York Finger Lakes Winter Festivals & Events, you may want to spend some time on the amazing ski trails.
The Finger Lakes Region is more temperate than the North Country or the Adirondacks. However, the area still gets enough snow to transform it into a glistening winter playground. There are also endless recreational activities for outdoor enthusiasts.
Located between Seneca and Cayuga Lakes, the Finger Lakes National Forest is New York’s only National Forest. Dense woods, pastures, ravines are home to plenty of native wildlife, and thirty miles of interconnecting trails are perfect for cross county skiing, snowshoeing and snowmobiling.
There’s also several cross-country ski centers in the Finger Lakes Region.
The Cumming Community Nature Center, located between Honeoye and Canandaigua, has six miles of patrolled, wooded trails. In LeRoy, the Genesee Country Village and Museum offers ski and snowshoe rental so you can explore the authentic 19th century village on primitive, snowy paths.
Are mountains more your thing? Greak Peak in Virgil offers downhill trails and terrain parks for skiers and boarders of all skill levels, as well as tubing, a Nordic ski center and a ginormous indoor waterpark that’s open year-round. Canandaigua’s Bristol Mountain also has a wide array of downhill and Nordic activities for winter sport enthusiasts.
Also, if you needs tips for your ski trip, check out our article about how to plan and pack for your next New York ski vacation!
5. Visit Corning, “The Most Fun Small Town in America”
There isn’t just one reason the southern Finger Lakes city of Corning was voted “The Most Fun Small Town in America.” With its artsy downtown, kid-friendly museums and array of dining experiences, Corning makes fun a priority all year round.
Corning is commonly referred to as the “Crystal City” because of its world-famous glass-making tradition. It sparkles with an array of interactive events for visitors of all ages.
Corning Museum of Glass celebrates with season with Glass Wonderland, a series of holiday-themed events where visitors can make their own ornaments, shop for unique artisan gifs or attend a guest artist demonstration. On the third Thursday evening of every month, the Corning Museum hosts 2300, a free performance event combining hot glass, live music and regional fare.
The Rockwell Museum, a designated Smithsonian affiliate, is home to an impressive collection of art focused on the diverse American experience. This season, The Rockwell will unveil its new Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Gallery.
The Rockwell Museum is also host to the Gingerbread Invitational.
It provides a tasty exhibit of architectural displays constructed from cookies, candies and icing. The Gingerbread Invitational opens on November 24 is on display though the end of December.
Need more art? Take Corning’s self-guided Tiffany & Treasures Trail, which includes working artist studios as well as buildings designed by L.C. Tiffany.
Finally, head to Corning’s Gaffer District for farm-to-table food, craft beer, antiques and shopping.
6. It’s a Wonderful Life: The Real Bedford Falls
This one is probably the most popular of the New York Finger Lakes Winter Festivals & Events.
Seneca Falls is the kind of adorable small town that old-fashioned movies are made of.
In fact, Bedford Falls, the fictional setting of the film “It’s A Wonderful Life”.
The movie is said to be based on Seneca Falls, a distinction which is joyfully celebrated during the holiday season.
The annual “It’s A Wonderful Life Festival” draws fans from all over to Seneca Fall’s historic downtown, which is transformed into the “Bedford Falls.” The 2018 festival will bring together four of the stars from the 1946 movie for press appearances and autograph signing.
The Bedford Falls Station Holiday Postmark will be offered at the town’s post office, a tradition now in its 71st year. Spectators of the annual “It’s a Wonderful Run 5K” can cheer on runners dressed up as reindeer, elves and Santas.
A 90-minute train ride across Cayuga Lake on the Bedford Falls Express is a special treat for families. Seating on the Bedford Falls Express is limited. Reserve your tickets in advance.
Seneca Falls is also home to the Women’s Rights National Historic Park. This park encompasses the site of the first Women’s Rights Convention in 1848. Telling the story of the activists, abolitionists and reformers who championed gender equality and civil rights, the Women’s Rights National Historic Park is open throughout the winter for tours and research.
7. See the “Seneca White Deer”
The “Seneca White Deer,” are the world’s largest herd of rare white deer. They have flourished in the Finger Lakes for more than 70 years.
The herd’s home? The fenced-in confines of a former U.S. military weapons storage facility.
Starting in November, visitors can see the Seneca White Deer. They can also learn their fascinating history on the bus tours of the herd’s isolated Finger Lakes habitat.
The Seneca White Deer are a naturally occurring variation of the common brown-colored white-tailed deer. Albino deer completely lack melanin and have pink eyes. However, the Seneca White Deer lack hair pigmentation but have normal, brown eyes.
The herd used to be isolated within the fences of the former military depot. During this time, the Seneca White Deer population once swelled to around 200. However, recent estimates indicate a decreased herd size.
The 90-minute Seneca White Deer tours are part of the redevelopment of the now privately-owned facility. The tours focus on both the herd’s conservation and job creation in the area.
The tour buses will depart from the newly constructed visitors center located about 10-miles south of Geneva. Tours are scheduled to run Thursday through Sunday year-round and can be booked online.

Letchworth State Park is also one of the parks. It is known as the “Grand Canyon of the East”. The Finger Lakes Trail is easily accessible from many areas. These areas include Ithaca, Cortland and Watkins Glen. However, the terrain can be challenging during the winter.

ABC’s ‘World News Night’ devoted about four times more coverage Thursday to the Cancun controversy surrounding Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) than the growing legal problems faced by Democrat New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
It isn’t just ABC. Fox News pointed out that on the six most popular shows on CNN and MSNBC, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, killer of the elderly who lies about it, got a total of three minutes of air time on those six most popular shows.
Cruz got 46 minutes.
It’s insanely irresponsible journalism.
Governor Cuomo’s outrageous policy forcing elderly COV patients into nursing homes when he had hospital space led to the deaths of at least 1,000 people, and probably thousands. His policy seeded the nursing homes. He compounded it by covering it up and blaming everyone except himself.
Ted Cruz made a mistake also, but it’s not an egregious error, yet ABC decided to make it the news of the night because they want to turn Texas blue. They also want to distract from Cuomo’s problems. Politico went after Cruz, Abbott, and former Governor Perry to make Republicans look as bad as possible for minor mistakes.
Cruz should have been more aware of the optics.
Texans are still struggling following deadly winter storms that have devastated the state’s power grid, and Cruz received some terrible publicity late Wednesday after pictures emerged on social media showing him and his family flying to Mexico for vacation. Cruz flew back to Houston the next day amid the backlash.
Cruz took responsibility and apologized:
“It was obviously a mistake. In hindsight, I wouldn’t have done it. I was trying to be a Dad,” Sen. Ted Cruz says after receiving criticism for flying to Mexico with his family during a major winter storm in Texas. pic.twitter.com/y8x22DxTgA
— Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) February 19, 2021
On the other hand, Andrew Cuomo is facing probes by the FBI and the US attorney’s office in Brooklyn. People on both sides of the aisle are calling for him to resign. A Democrat lawmaker, Ron Kim came forward to describe the vicious phone calls he received from Cuomo and his staff threatening to destroy him if he didn’t lie as part of the coverup.
Cuomo claims his mistake was not coming out sooner to aggressively address the lies and conspiracy theories. However, his top aide, Melissa DeRosa just said the administration hid the real data of nursing home deaths to avoid Trump’s DoJ.

The latest chapter in a series of articles looking back at each campaign from the Crucible era.
The 2013/14 snooker season boasted a dozen ranking events, a new record for the number staged under that status at the time.
One player who took full advantage of the increased opportunities was Ding Junhui, who was finally at the peak of his powers for a sustained period, brief though it was.
Despite having just turned 26 by the time his 2013/14 snooker season commenced, Ding’s achievements were already the source of much discussion among analysts and fans alike.
By now, Ding was already a six-time ranking event champion – a tally which included a brace of UK Championship crowns – and a Masters winner.
But his failure to build on his early promise as a devastating teenager, particularly at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield where he suffered from a dismal record, had some already querying his fragile temperament.
Ding burst onto the scene by capturing the 2005 China Open on his 18th birthday, and in doing so ignited an enormous wave of popularity for snooker in the Asian nation.
The former world under-21 amateur champion was, and continues to be, so adored by his Chinese fans that the pressure on his shoulders has at times been too heavy to bear, and this frequently led to subpar performances on home soil.
When he triumphed then in the 2013 Shanghai Masters courtesy of a 10-6 beating of compatriot Xiao Guodong in the final, a lot of that load was suddenly lifted.
Ding’s confidence was carried forward into the very next ranking event, the inaugural staging of the Indian Open where he beat home hero Aditya Mehta in the title-deciding showdown.
Fast forward another few weeks and he was at it again, this time back in China for the lucrative International Championship in Chengdu when he edged Australian Open winner Marco Fu 10-9 in a nail-biting finale.
For the first time since Stephen Hendry in 1990 a player had won three ranking titles on the trot, and Ding had another of Hendry’s records within his sight.
The 2005 and 2009 UK champion needed two more ranking event victories to equal Hendry’s once untouchable record for the most accumulated in a single term.
Ding’s streak concluded after he ran out of gas in a UK Championship that was won by Neil Robertson, the Australian beating defending champion Mark Selby to add to his success in the season-opening Wuxi Classic.
But it wasn’t long until he got going again, rising to the occasion in front of 2,500 snooker-adoring fans at the Tempodrom in Berlin to lift the German Masters trophy at the expense of Judd Trump.
Just a month later, Ding had his first chance to equal Hendry’s record of five when he faced Ronnie O’Sullivan in the final of the Welsh Open – the last edition of the event to be held at the Newport Centre.
The Rocket didn’t take as long of a hiatus as in the previous campaign, but he did miss large chunks during the first half of the 2013/14 snooker season.
When he did play, he seemed to win, particularly in the non-ranking events where he thrived among high-quality participants.
O’Sullivan triumphed in the inaugural Champion of Champions with a 10-8 defeat of Stuart Bingham, and he then hammered Selby in the final of the Masters.
At this time, despite the fact there was the relatively new two-year rolling system for the world rankings, the standings were still determined by a strange points formula.
It wouldn’t be until the subsequent campaign that a list would be implemented devised from earnings alone, so despite having won the previous two World Championship titles, O’Sullivan was ranked outside the top 16 as a result of his failure to enter most ranking events.
Ding, by contrast, was rapidly rising up the rankings and by the end of that calendar year would be at the number one position for the first time in his career.
Yet, in the Welsh Open final, few really had Ding as the favourite, and so it proved as a dominant O’Sullivan romped to further success, capping a fine display with a superb 147 break in the final frame that sealed the top prize.
Another month later and Ding was back in Beijing, where he conjured up a second shot at matching Hendry’s two-decade old record of five ranking titles in a single campaign.
In front of joyous home support, he coasted to the final where he duly overcame Robertson by a 10-5 scoreline that would, for the time being at least, write his name into the history books.
The World Championship was only a couple of weeks away and a coveted maiden title at the Crucible Theatre appeared to be within his grasp.
But Ding’s disappointment in Sheffield persisted with an incredible 10-9 reverse against Michael Wasley in what is regarded as one of the biggest ever Crucible upsets.
That coveted maiden world title at the end of the 2013/14 snooker season would instead be someone else’s to savour.
Aside from Ding, most of the talk in the build-up to the tournament centred on whether O’Sullivan would be able to secure a threepeat, and apart from a scare against Joe Perry in the second round the Englishman answered all of those questions by coasting through to another final.
With the third in a row and a sixth World Championship in total on the line, O’Sullivan encountered rival Selby, a player who he had only recently labelled as “The Torturer”.
Selby, often through his performances in the Masters, had built up a reputation as being the master of brinkmanship and a protagonist who never, ever knew when he was beaten.
But even so, the Jester’s record in ranking event finals up until this point in his career was mediocre at best, with his defeat to Shaun Murphy in March’s World Open final representing his eighth disappointment from eleven appearances at that stage.
When O’Sullivan established a 10-5 lead in their World Championship fixture, it appeared as though the pattern of misery would continue.
Selby, however, crucially won the last two frames on day one to trail by just three frames overnight, and buoyed by his late-night efforts he was quickly back on level terms on the Bank Holiday Monday afternoon.
Key to the turnaround was Selby’s knack of controlling the table and making it difficult for his esteemed opponent to make frame-winning clearances.
Once Selby went 11-10 in front, O’Sullivan had to dig deep but by now he had taken a mental battering, and the former grew in strength to ultimately pull away and complete a compelling 18-14 success.
Devastated by the loss, it would take years for O’Sullivan to be the same kind of animal again at the Crucible, while Selby was set to become just about unstoppable in Sheffield.
Meanwhile, it was the beginning of the end for another famous player who was once an unstoppable force at the Crucible Theatre.
Steve Davis’ failure to qualify for the venue stages of a the 2014 World Championship meant that the six-time champion placed outside the top 64 in the world rankings list to be relegated from the Main Tour.
An invitational tour card prolonged his career for a while longer, but the Nugget rarely accepted the opportunity to play, and two years later one of the all-time legends of the game put away his cue for good.

Facts of the case
Whatsapp submitted before the Court that the challenge mounted by it is jurisdictional in nature. The main contention of the said entity was that the issues identified by the CCI in the 26(1) order are identical to the ones looked into by the Government of India, the Delhi HC and the Hon’ble Supreme Court and therefore, the principle of ‘judicial discipline’ would demand that the CCI should refrain from passing any order into the matter. The company paid reliance on the law laid down in Vinod Kumar Gupta v. Whatsapp Inc. and Bharti Airtel case by the CCI and Hon’ble SC respectively to buttress its case.
The Court did make a reference to the lack of data protection framework in India. Even though the Hon’ble SC through the Puttuswamy judgment has recognised the ‘right to privacy’ as a fundamental right under the Indian constitution, the lack of a subsequent statutory framework and a dedicated regulator has led to certain gaps in the enforcement framework of it. The said judgment, even though not contributing to the statutory framework, does address the question of a dedicated regulator in the form of a competition regulator which can also look into data collection and processing policies of the Big Tech firms in a time-bound manner.

“Quebecers still pay the highest taxes in North America: Fraser Institute.” — Montreal Gazette
“Quebec taxpayers still paying highest taxes in North America: study.” — Global Montreal
Both of these headlines are wrong, even according to the study they cite, which was produced by the right-wing Fraser Institute to specifically target Quebec. If you read the study, you’ll see it’s actually Nova Scotia that has the highest marginal tax rates in the country for two of the three income levels cited.
Quebec’s rate is the highest at the $50,000 level. When you combine federal and provincial income taxes, PEI, Nova Scotia and Manitoba all have higher rates than Quebec for people earning $75,000 and Nova Scotia has the highest rate for the $150,000+ income bracket.
“Quebec’s personal income tax rates are among the highest in North America,” is what the report actually states.
But the name of the study, “Quebec’s tax competitiveness: A barrier to prosperity,” clearly shows it’s the only province Fraser has in its gunsights as the authors casually brush past others with poorer tax or economic records. Especially Nova Scotia, the real Canadian poster province for high taxes and weak economic performance.
“Quebec’s tax system … is decidedly uncompetitive within Canada and more broadly North America (which) has contributed to its relatively poor economic performance across a range of indicators,” the report argues.
Yet the facts they cite show Quebec has often performed better than provinces with lower taxes, including Ontario, whose marginal tax rate for people earning $50,000 is 20 per cent lower than Quebec’s.
Here are some examples directly from the Fraser report:
“Quebec’s average total employment growth over this period (2003-2012) also compares poorly with most other Canadian provinces and the top-performing U.S. states. Only New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Manitoba and Newfoundland and Labrador performed worse than Quebec among the 10 Canadian provinces.” Got that? Four of the other nine provinces had less job growth.
“Business investment is among the most important factors contributing to long-term economic growth and higher productivity. As shown in figure 6, Quebec is the fourth worst performing province between 2003 and 2012.” Yep, we were only better than PEI, Ontario and Nova Scotia.
“Quebec’s average annual real GDP growth of 1.5 per cent over this period was the fourth lowest among Canadian provinces.” Again, we did better than Ontario, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
So even a study that sets out to depict Quebec as having the highest income taxes — and a consequently and correspondingly weak economy — fails on both counts.
Okay now, repeat after me: Quebec does NOT have the highest income taxes in North America. PEI, Manitoba and Nova Scotia have similar or higher rates.
And try to keep in mind that one of the reasons why taxes are higher in Canada is that taxpayers receive a lot more services than U.S. residents, with universal healthcare just the most obvious example. You can’t compare taxes without also looking at the value of what those taxes provide. The same holds true for comparisons between Quebec and other provinces, none of which have universal daycare subsidies, drug insurance or a tuition-free college system.
So why did the Fraser Institute zero in on Quebec rather than the more deserving Nova Scotia for its tax-rate bitch slap? The answer comes in the report’s conclusion, which notes the Couillard government recently created the Quebec Taxation Review Committee, whose mandate is to make the system more competitive.
Not fairer. More competitive. And that’s where the slogan “highest taxation in North America” will come in handy as the Liberals try to sell Quebecers on more tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations at the expense of the middle class. ■

Tips for Eating at Diet
Meals at restaurants are often welcomed … But it is really difficult to diet. The menu shows food especially delicious, and in the research it is shown that if you see something delicious or smell you smell someone's decision. This is a convenient place for tips for eating out.
But a nice timeout at the restaurant does not need to mean an unhealthy meal, according to extra calories and healthy weight loss experts.
The average Americans eat half of a meal outside the house. I know that the location of the fast food is everywhere. According to researchers, following some simple rules, you can stop food by ruining the weight loss efforts. Here's what you are doing …
– Choose a sandwich shop with a vegetable topping or a fast food place with soup or dairy. Cream, soup containing cheese, often beware of the bread accompanying them. This allows you to add 1,000 calories to your meal.
– Do not fry on grilling This saves 280 calories, 27 grams of fat and does not depart from the burned as well.
– Avoid adding high fat such as cheese salad dressing, mayo etc, you can add 100 calories to meals. Make as low fat as possible. When eating salad first you are filled with this, calories are kept low I will. – This will give you the pleasure of enjoying your favorite dish, but because you do not need extra calories, order a small (or child's size part) instead of increasing it. Single burger versus double, and never super size. Remember, the part of the restaurant is as big as it is famous.
– see a sweet drink because this is not enough hungry calories. Please choose water, seltzer or diet drink instead. If you drink alcohol, leave it to one drink and come with hundreds of additional calories, so please avoid delicious frozen items.
– Eat your fork (stop eating) once in several times. By paying attention to the company and its surroundings, it gives your brain a chance to send a "complete" message to your stomach. Indeed, if your part is halved, please stop and rate hunger on a scale of 1 to 5 (one is hungry and five are full of belly). If you are in 3 or 4, please stop eating.
By making a smart choice at a restaurant, you can capture hundreds of excess calories without realizing it. Of course, please be careful of the size of the part as always, since the calorie is large and the load is large compared with what we make at home at many restaurants' meals.
If you can not order accessories, one of the best tips for eating out is to immediately enclose half of the meal before you eat and enjoy the rest. You will taste all the taste and pleasure, but you can only eat half of the other calories.

restricting usage of payday advances may do more harm than good
WhatвЂ™s an online payday loan?
The borrower provides the lender with a postdated check or debit authorization in exchange for the cash. The lender might roll over the loan to another paydate in exchange for another $20 if a borrower is unable to pay at the end of the term.
Because of their high interest, quick period and proven fact that one out of five end in default, pay day loans have very long been derided as вЂњpredatoryвЂќ and вЂњabusive,вЂќ making them a prime target associated with CFPB considering that the bureau was made by the Dodd-Frank Act last year.
States have already been quick to manage the industry, with 16 and Washington, D.C., banning them outright or caps that are imposing charges that basically eradicate the industry. Considering that the CFPB doesn’t have authority to cap fees that payday loan providers charge, their proposed regulations focus on other facets of the lending model.

I think I was always obsessed with esthetics.
Some people act as though art that is for a mass audience is not good art, and I think this has been a very negative thing. I know that I have wanted very much to write books that are accessible to the widest audience possible.
There is no life to be found in violence. Every act of violence brings us closer to death. Whether it's the mundane violence we do to our bodies by overeating toxic food or drink or the extreme violence of child abuse, domestic warfare, life-threatening poverty, addiction, or state terrorism.
I have been thinking about the notion of perfect love as being without fear, and what that means for us in a world that's becoming increasingly xenophobic, tortured by fundamentalism and nationalism.

We had a great Canada Day weekend, camping, spending time at the beach and enjoying some very hot weather!
We then came home, threw everything from trailer into the house, started the laundry and headed out to our dock to enjoy more of this beautiful day. We swam, we paddle boarded, we hung out and enjoyed each other's company.
One of our friends set up a slack line... it kept the older boys busy for hours and hours!
Another friend braided everyone's hair one morning... including the women.
There really is no where else in the world that I would rather live. Except maybe Arizona and that would only be in January and February!!! But we really do love this beautiful country that we get to live in.
Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends!

Competing proposals from Mayoral candidates to cut fares are attracting widespread support, a new BBC poll shows.
Labour candidate Ken Livingstone has promised to use unspent money in the transport budgets to cut fares by 7%, a policy opponents say he cannot afford.
The promised cut is supported by 82% of those polled, with 63% saying they “strongly support” it.
Brian Paddick, the Liberal Democrat candidate, is one of those questioning the affordability of Livingstone’s cuts. Mr Paddick has instead proposed cheaper fares for passenger travelling before the rush hour, a policy supported by 84% of those surveyed.
Kr Livingstone’s campaign claim the poll shows “shows Londoners want a Mayor who will cut the fares and make them better off.”
However the poll shows the former Mayor trailing successor Boris Johnson on a number of key areas, including transport policy where Johnson enjoys a 5% lead (36% to 31%).
The Mayor also leads on crime, with 26% of respondents saying he has the best policies. Mr Livingstone’s policies have the support of 22%.
Mr Paddick, a former Met Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner, scores just 8% on crime, despite the topic dominating his campaign so far.
Johnson also leads on the question of who has the best ideas on environment, attracting the support of 23%. Mr Livingstone is three points behind in 20% while Mr Paddick is fourth placed behind Green party candidate Jenny Jones whose polices are supported by 7%.
Johnson and Livingstone tie on 27% for the candidate with the best policies for creating jobs and growing London’s economy.
However Livingstone leads Johnson 28% to 18% on housing policies and his promise to campaign for a living rent is supported by 76%.
As in past polls, Livingston leads Johnson (49% to 26%) when voters are asked who “most understands the concerns of ordinary Londoners?”
The survey also shows that 53% of Londoners back a proposal from Ms Jones to that no City Hall employee should earn less than a tenth of the highest paid person.
Commenting on the poll, Jones said: “We’re already trusted on the environment, and we believe our policies on other key areas, such as reducing the pay gap and making transport more affordable without damaging investment, give Londoners a genuine, positive choice.”
A spokesperson for Brian Paddick said: “This race is wide open. This poll shows that when Londoners are asked if they prefer Boris Johnson or Ken Livingstone’s policies, whether it’s on the economy, crime or the environment, more people say they don’t know than back either of them. Londoners are tired of Boris Johnson and Ken Livingstone and the lack of enthusiasm is telling.”
All campaigns have been asked to comment on the poll.

Why Expert Economic Analysis And Litigation Support Is Good For Your Company
It is important for any business to do an analysis of how it is fairing and it’s position both internally and externally. In the analysis, the weaknesses and strengths of a company should be looked into including any factors that affect the business either directly or indirectly.
The social factor is where contact patterns, attitudes, tendencies and social trends are focused on.
The reason behind this is the role that every business has on society and hence it should operate with the rules and norms of the society. A business can make profits by following the social trends of the business. There are no explanations in the technological factor. To be successful in a business maximum use of innovation and technology should be employed. Examples of successful companies are the recognized IT companies.
Education is the next analysis that covers coaching and training issues. This means that a company should endeavor to improve and develop skills and knowledge of its workers. Qualifed, loyal personnel is a valuable asset that a business should posses.
In a set up where there are multinationals the ethnic analysis factor is important. The avoidance of ethnic discrimination is achieved through human resource management.
Politics have a role to play in our social lives and the economic performance of a business.
The factors of economics are the vital and substantive in a business because they are running under an economy. Business growth cannot be achieved in weak economies.
Demographics is the factor that has to be analyzed properly especially when a new service or product is being introduced to the market. Every business should consider the population density, age and social background when launching a product or service in the market.
Litigation services are helpful for companies to thrive in complex litigation atmosphere which is driven by issues that engage several parties, large amounts of money, long court processes, and complex legal issues that may require lawyers to intervene.
A case that has many witnesses must be deposed before starting any court proceedings. Contracting another legal company might help to assist in the deposition before the commence of the court case.
If the court case is large there might be need to retrieve multiple documents.
If some terminologies are not easily understood then hiring an interpreter might be the solution. Just in case a lawyer does not have the information terms that are needed for interpretation an interpreter can assist.
With all the above lawyers can have limited time to come up with an organized case. This is where you hire paralegals, attorneys and attorneys to help to organize the information for the case.

A new Star Wars movie directed by Jon Favreau will be going into production later this year; the project is entitled The Mandalorian & Grogu. Currently, it is not clear where Favreau’s new film will fit into the Disney+ series The Mandalorian’s timeline. On the upcoming film, Favreau stated, “I have loved telling stories set in the rich world that George Lucas created…The prospect of bringing the Mandalorian and his apprentice Grogu to the big screen is extremely exciting.”
Favreau’s film will be the latest movie installment in the Star Wars franchise since 2019’s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Along with Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, the president of Lucasfilm, and Dave Filoni, the creator of Ahsoka, will be producing The Mandalorian & Grogu.
For a better understanding of The Mandalorian’s timeline, MXDWN has multiple articles covering the series. From figuring out where crossovers lead to Pedro Pascal’s confirmation about how he only voices his character on the show to how the strikes affected the series to the series’ broadcast debut. There is also coverage on various stars of the series, such as Ahmed Best and Katee Sackhoff.
In addition, there are multiple articles covering the latest season of The Mandalorian, highlighting Jon Favreau’s plans for the series and production’s handling of Cara Dune. Along with this coverage, there is also coverage on teasers for season 3, such as: the release of new clips, the release of a new trailer and how many views it drew, the series’ release date and the trailer’s appearance at the D23 Expo.
Stay tuned on MXDWN for more vital coverage on The Mandalorian and Star Wars.

Kuwait Increases Contribution to Future Generations Fund
The Kuwait Investment Authority (KIA) manages the assets of Kuwait’s Future Generations Fund (FGF). In 1976, Kuwait’s Crown Prince Jaber al-Ahmed al-Jaber al-Sabah who was the deputy emir of Kuwait issued a law creating the Future Generations Fund. The FGF is savings fund for future generations where assets are invested outside of Kuwait. Investment income is reinvested.
Kuwait had a record budget surplus due to high oil income and lower than predicted governmental expenditures. Due to several key factors, the government of Kuwait plans to increase contribution into the future fund from 10% to 25% this fiscal year. Kuwait’s cabinet notified the Kuwait Ministry of Finance to make the modification in the fiscal budget ending March 2013.
The Kuwait Investment Authority also manages the General Reserve Fund (GRF). This fund holds government assets such as participation in state-owned enterprises like the Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development and the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation.

Artist – Nicholas Down
November 3, 2023
Born in Uganda and raised in East Africa, Nicholas Down worked as a physician in England for 32 years before retiring in 2012 and emigrating to the USA where he has settled with his wife Judy in Dryden, New York. Down’s wife Judy is a Massage Therapist in private practice and at Cornell University. She is also a published author and has had distinguished career as an actress, including appearances on Broadway and a National Tour of Les Miserables.
Many of Down’s paintings are abstract landscapes with his palette dictated by the nature of the landscape. Hot, bright colors are not uncommon, which Down ascribes to his attraction to the American Southwest rather than his African youth. His father was in the British Foreign Service until the revolution that made Tanganyika into Tanzania ended his career, and the family left Africa when Down was 12 years old. He has not returned.
Down attributes the vibrancy of his colors in part to the high quality of his pigments. “I get some from De Kat, the only wind driven mill in the world that grinds pigments from stone: other suppliers are Vasari, Michael Harding and Old Holland. I believe that the quality of pigments I use is vital. I use Ampersand Gesso panels, mounted on birchwood frames and these allow a translucent light to permeate my work.”
“The paintings are composites of many images; they are expressions of internalized images, often inspired by direct observation or photography, but seek to express the invisible…”
He counts his influences among the Abstract Expressionists – Pollock, Gorky, de Kooning – but in his exploration of the nuance of light he goes back to the Impressionists and Turner.
Not all of his paintings are inspired by landscapes. Another theme he refers to as “biomorphic.” These images can be inspired by music – his mother was trained at the Royal Academy – and he will give a biomorphic shape to an abstract idea.
“I don’t make any drawings beforehand,” he said. “The painting evolves from the first marks that I make. I once had a commission to make eight canvases that would tell a story. I was listening to Liszt, put a huge charcoal mark on the canvas and went from there. I love the physicality of painting at a large scale.”
In the United Kingdom Down lived in Scotland and south of London, but he loves the landscape around Ithaca. “The winter is incredible,” he said. “I love the nuance of grays, from slate to a bluey-gray, but I haven’t worked it into my paintings yet. I love the sky here; it’s always changing.”
Down also makes films but has not yet begun to distribute them. He is still working on procuring licensing fees. His film work he said is, “a celebration of landscape and stills.”
Down joined the Greater Ithaca Art Trail earlier in 2013 and is the only painter located in Dryden. He lives right in the village and receives visitors at his studio on some of the First Saturday weekends organized by the art trail.
At the moment he is currently exploring new mediums and creating inspiring images in pencil. He continues to be delighted by the beauty of the natural world.

This article was corrected Sept. 6 at 1:36 pm Eastern time. Xen-Hub is not yet in production.
SAN FRANCISCO — Xenesis, a Chicago laser communications startup, announced an agreement Sept. 3 with Hartwell Capitol Consulting of Woodbridge, Virginia, to sell optical transceivers in key markets.
Under the four-year, $212.5 million deal, Hartwell Capitol will distribute Xen-Hub, Xenesis’ optical communications transceiver, in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Israel, India, Australia, Nigeria, Mexico, Singapore and Brazil.
Xenesis emerged from stealth mode in 2018 with plans to sell a small optical transceiver developed at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. With the Xen-Hub transceiver, which weigh ten to 15 kilograms, customers will be able to transfer data at speeds greater than 10 gigabits per second from satellites in low Earth orbit to the ground, Mark LaPenna, Xenesis founder and chief executive, told SpaceNews.
Last year, Xenesis, Atlas Space Operations and Laser Light Communications formed the Empower Space Alliance to create a global optical data distribution service. They plan to operate 12 satellites in medium Earth orbit and 100 ground sites. Each ground site will have three optical telescopes connected to wide-gauge fiber, LaPenna said.
Washington-based Laser Light Communications plans to deploy a global optical hybrid communications network called HALO, which stands for High Articulation Laser Optics. Atlas of Traverse City, Michigan, sells satellite communications as a service.
Since the ground and space infrastructure is beginning to take shape, Xenesis joined forces with Hartwell Capitol to identify customers for its technology. “Xen-Hub is a highly scalable piece of componentry that increases the throughput of space-to-ground communications for satellite operators by a factor of five to ten times,” LaPenna said.
Xenesis also announced plans Aug. 8 to conduct a feasibility study for a space-based Global Optical Multi-layered Mesh Network System for the U.S. Air Force. Xenesis won the Phase One Small Business Innovative Research contract from AFWERX, the Air Force organization established in 2017 to spur innovation.
“We have identified multiple Department of Defense stakeholders, for a spaceflight demonstration, which will come with $1-$1 matching funds up to $1.5 million,” according to a post on the Xenesis website. “We have pending [Memorandums of Understanding] as an outcome to our study.”

Any info from devs?Or could devs respond here?
Im asking because i wanna buy H3(but not on egs) and lack of pre order store page kinda worries me, i also have other game i want to buy so i would like to know i should just wait or if i should just buy the other game.
Any info from devs?Or could devs respond here?
If HITMAN 3 will arrive on Steam, it will happen not before January 20th, when EGS exclusivity deal expires
lets hope it comes for steam players
I watched year 2 trailer now and i think chance is great, since in video it looked like they used Valve Index and VR should come January 20 which is day when exclusivity ends.
Realistically, there’s very little reason not to release the game on other platforms. The deal with Epic likely includes a clause that the one year exclusivity is actually exclusive - meaning they cannot comment on releasing on other platforms, advertise on other or about other platforms, allow pre-release info or sales, etc. On the 20th we’ll likely hear news about what’s coming but nothing before that due to those deals.
We have no explicit confirmation, but I would bet on yes.
I’m unaware of Epic creating any exclusivity deals longer than one year. The only exception I know of is Borderlands 3. (which negotiated a shorter 6 month exclusivity period IIRC)
If Epic broke their usual conventions and wanted to pay IO to keep Hitman 3 exclusive another year, it’d be a little hard to imagine they would be willing to pay IO more money than they’d expect to earn from a Steam launch. Bringing a game to Steam is almost like a second release day for your game, so it’s hard to imagine Epic would be willing to match or exceed those potential financial gains just for a little extra exclusive time for one stealth game.
From there, let’s say IO are now free from Epic’s contract… Why wouldn’t they port Hitman 3 to Steam, then? I don’t see why they would continue holding out in that scenario. It’s the best selling Hitman game of all time and they’ve got the chance to relaunch it on one of the industry’s biggest gaming platforms.
Finally, as a bonus assurance worth noting, Epic Games Store’s VR support leaves a lot to be desired. The push to get Hitman 3 PC VR compatible pretty much guarentees a Steam release IMO.
Honestly, who knows? It could, or it couldn’t.
tbh I can see them putting it on there as soon as they possibly can, just to get it on there. But then I can also see them waiting for one of the bigger “Year 2” content drops so that it can launch on Steam with a bit of fanfare and its not a situation where its “just the same game that was released a year ago”.
Tetris Effect was an Epic exclusive for an year where there is a VR mode too but if you want to run it VR, you have to use SteamVR (I don’t know if for Oculus platforms was needed because some games have native compatibility without any additional software).
SteamVR, if i’m not wrong, it’s an open source software. Also it doesn’t need Steam installed to run.
So just because a game use something related to Steam (software or hardware), doesn’t mean necessarily that the Epic exclusive it’s over. But, in this case, there is a good chance that is coming to Steam once and for all.
And to be clear, I don’t want to ruin your hopes for a Steam release, I would be grateful too (and I bought the game on Epic). What i’m saying is don’t get to the hype train for something that, for now, isn’t even announced.
It uses SteamVR for the most part, which as I’ve had to say and repeat in multiple different places, is not specific to steam; it’s a bundling of various OpenVR tools and standards that can be used on any launcher. It’d be the exact same experience if a VR Game was on EGS or Steam as they use the same protocols underneath provided by SteamVR. There’s functionally no difference.
Technically? We don’t know.
Realistically? You bet it will.
For any questions of Steam releases IOI have either avoided them or said they “won’t talk about that at this time” which – in the business of video games – is weird if you want people to buy your game on this exclusive platform.
If there were no Steam release on the horizon, I’d bet IOI would double down on “This game is exclusive to Epic Games Store, it will not release on Steam”.
But since it most likely will release after the first year, they can’t just say “we’ll talk about releasing it in January of next year” or “yes, there will be a release on Steam later”.
Contracts, legalese and all, preventing them from speaking about something that’s clearly in the cards. I know IOI have had some problems with communication before, but if there really were no Steam release coming soon, they’d say it, that way it could draw more consumers to buy it on EGS instead of blindly waiting for a version that’s nowhere near release.
Plus, with confirmation of PCVR, Steam is the perfect fit for it. I haven’t heard of any major games or VR categories on the Epic Store, but Steam is very well known for supporting VR.
Edit: I just realised that it’s interesting how EGS’ exclusive contracts prevent Steam releases but not Stadia releases – a platform equally targeting low-end PC players.
Not to mention the direct quote from Travis in one of the IOI Insider streams earlier in Summer (ish, I think) 2021 that HITMAN 3 would be “coming to more platforms next year”.
It’s coming, for absolute sure, they just can’t officially say so yet.
I call it. It’s coming to iOS and Android (I know it’s unrealistic)
Today I saw an article in Google recomendations which said that HITMAN either about or already launched (don’t remember exactly) on Android.
I didn’t read it though, because I’m not interested in HITMAN on Android.
Maybe the article was about Sniper Assassin though, but it said exactly HITMAN in the headline
Probably Hitman Sniper.
SteamVR is not launcher-specific. Also; Tetris VR was an epic exclusive and used SteamVR to run the game. Not being on Steam is not why PCVR was delayed until it goes onto Steam (that most likely has to do with Sony and PSVR).
It very much does have a VR category:
I know that not only Steam has VR games, and the reason it’s taken so long is because of Playstation’s deal, it’s just that to me, I feel like Steam is the much more prominent marketplace of VR titles, and so launching that alongside the Steam version, just as the contract is up, makes sense for visibility, sales, and exposure of the VR mode.
There was also another stream that, to me, seemed to imply they can’t even discuss Steam publicly while the EGS deal is in place in regards to H3. Travis said something along the lines of “there are questions about the game coming to… [awkward pause as he figures out what to say] a place that it is not at the moment” before going into the standard “nothing to announce” speal.
So we most likely won’t see anything about Steam from IO until the EGS deal has expired at the absolute earliest.
That sounds like a hilarious legal dodge.
I am surprised they haven’t announced anything yet about a Steam release though, since other titles have had that 2-week grace period before the contract’s year is up to do so.
Here’s a blog post from Remedy I found that was published right on the dot 2 weeks before Steam launch.
EDIT: Actually, now that I think of it, this was announcing the “Control Ultimate Edition” a completely different SKU to the original game’s file (at least on Consoles)
Perhaps Epic’s contracts have tightened, and they’re further discouraged from talking about competition? Or it’s just IOI being cautious for caution’s sake.

Burger King is pretty relentless in its hounding of McDonald’s. Just weeks after launching “Whopper Detour,” which used geofencing to offer 1-cent Whoppers to anyone within 600 feet of a McDonald’s, BK has punked its rival once again—by announcing it will accept expired “MacCoins” as payment for its new Big King XL on Friday.
McDonald’s introduced the MacCoin last summer to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Big Mac. The chain made 6.2 million MacCoins and distributed them, with the purchase of a Big Mac, at 14,000 participating restaurants in more than 50 countries. They were redeemable for another Big Mac on a later visit.
