Rangers place DeAngelo on waivers
The New York Rangers have had a difficult start to the 2020-21 National Hockey League season, picking up just six points from their opening eight games. They have just two wins on the season and are in desperate need of turning things around before it is too late.
On Sunday, the team decided it was time to make a change and opted to place defenceman Tony DeAngelo on waivers after the 25-year-old struggled to keep up with the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday. The Rangers ended up losing the game 5-4 in overtime and knew they had to do something.
“This was just a decision the organization made and we will see how it works out,” Rangers’ head coach David Quinn told reporters, via Sportsnet. “I get the questions, I know you want more specifics, but like I said, a decision we made as an organization, and in 24 hours we will be able to probably be a little more specific.
“A handful of guys maybe aren’t playing at the level they were playing last year and you could probably say Tony would be one of them, but he’s not the only one.”
DeAngelo was selected with the 19th overall pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft by the Tampa Bay Lightning but never ended up making an appearance for the club at the NHL level. He was traded during the 2016 NHL Entry Draft to the Arizona Coyotes for second-round pick Libor Hajek.
The defenseman wouldn’t last in Arizona very long either before being shipped out again. He was traded on June 23, 2017, to the Rangers along with a first-round pick – seventh overall – in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft in exchange for Derek Stepan and Antti Raanta.
DeAngelo enjoyed a breakout year last season, putting up a career-high of 53 points. He had 15 goals and 38 assists in 68 games with the Rangers, earning him a lucrative contract extension. The defenceman put pen to paper on a new deal in October, signing a 2-year $9.6 million extension with New York. Considering the extension was just agreed upon a few short months ago, Sunday’s news comes as a shock to many both within and outside of the Rangers’ organization.
DeAngelo really struggled to match his performances from last season and was -6 early on in the campaign. He was also an important piece to New York’s power play last season, something the club will need to replace immediately.
It remains to be seen whether placing DeAngelo on waivers really was the right move and whether he will be able to land on his feet somewhere else and regain the stellar form he showed last season. New York does not have much time to turn things around though and we could be seeing them make a few more moves in the near future as they look to bolster their squad.
New York take on the Pittsburgh Penguins again on Monday evening at Madison Square Garden in a game they know they need to win.

Removing the "no-1-8-v" statement breaks it, and the reality is that the
signalling voltage is fixed at 1.8V, so the "vqmmc-supply" is correct.
The problem here is that the MMC layer doesn't understand that, and
always wants to do the initial probe at vqmmc=3.3V. Hence the above
It would be nice if MMC understood the concept of a bus operating at a
fixed voltage, then the "no-1-8-v" hack could be removed.
Which-ever way is chosen, the result is that we end up _not_ describing
the hardware, but we end up describing something suitable for the
implementation, which is not how DT is supposed to work. MMC really
needs to be fixed.

I wasn’t going to post this because it sounded so ridiculous that I thought it had to be a joke but after seeing major publications pick this up, I guess this ludicrous story has some merit. Harriet screenwriter and producer, Gregory Allen Howard, says when he first started working on the movie in 1994 that one studio executive suggested Julia Roberts to portray the legendary slave turned abolitionist. Yep, Caucasian Julia Roberts.
Here is what Howard said during a Q & A published earlier this month: “I was told how one studio head said in a meeting, ‘This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman. When someone pointed out that Roberts couldn’t be Harriet, the executive responded, ‘It was so long ago. No one is going to know the difference.’”
Now, let’s just say this was said merely as a joke during a meeting. Even if that was the case, it’s still a tone-deaf thing to say & honestly not far off from what Hollywood can be capable of. Remember when Emma Stone was cast as a character who is meant to be of one-quarter Chinese and one-quarter Hawaiian descent in Aloha? Or when the casting of Caucasian actors, particularly Scarlett Johansson, drew accusations of racism and whitewashing in the United States upon the release of Ghost in the Shell? I guess it isn’t too far off base that a studio exec would suggest Roberts as Tubman.
As we know now, Cynthia Erivo plays her in the film which also caused minor controversy because, while she’s African American, she’s also British so that started its own minor debate before the film was released. Erivo is getting some Oscar buzz for the role & the film is doing decent box office so everything has worked out in the long run. - 2 minutes ago

The Irish surnames in use today are underpinned by a multitude of rich histories. The name MacQuigge originally appeared in Gaelic as O Coigligh, which may be derived from "coigeal," which denotes "unkempt hair."
from very ancient times.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our MacQuigge research.Another 162 words (12 lines of text) covering the years 1172, 1470, 1461 and 1468 are included under the topic Early MacQuigge History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Because early scribes and church officials often spelled names as they sounded, a person could have many various spellings of his name.Many different spelling variations
of the surname MacQuigge were found in the archives researched. These included O'Quigley, Quigley, Cogley, Quigly, Quigg, MacQuigg, McQuigge, O'Quigg, Twigg, Fivey and many more.
A massive wave of Irish immigrants hit North America during the 19th century. Although many early Irish immigrants made a carefully planned decision to leave left Ireland
for the promise of free land, by the 1840s immigrants were fleeing a famine stricken land in desperation. The condition of Ireland
during the Great Potato Famine
of the late 1840s can be attributed to a rapidly expanding population and English imperial policies. Those Irish families
that arrived in North America were essential to its rapid social, industrial, and economic development. Passenger and immigration lists have revealed a number of early Irish immigrants bearing the name MacQuigge: Andrew, Hugh, James, John, Joseph, Neil, Thomas and William Quigg all arrived in Philadelphia between 1800 and 1870; Andrew, Charles, Daniel, Edward, Francis, George, Hugh, James, John, Michael, Patrick, Thomas and William Quigley all arrived in Philadelphia between 1800 and 1870.

Falcons — Even Their Chicks and Fledglings — Targeted in Oregon
The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) is accepting public comment through Thursday, Jan. 6, 2011, on its proposal to allow the capture of wild peregrine falcons for falconry. Even chicks and fledglings could be held in captivity for personal use. Furthermore, the proposal would let falconers raid more types of nests.
Tell ODFW to reject the proposal!
Wild falcons fly for miles a day with no boundaries, experiencing a level of freedom that is unparalleled by most creatures. Captive falcons may find themselves in an enclosure scarcely wider than their wingspan and with only a bar-covered window view to the outside world. They often are kept blind, with a hood, to avoid visual stimuli. Captivity prevents these amazing animals from fully expressing their natural behavior — behavior that has evolved over millions of years.
We engaged in a similar fight in Montana in February 2010 and lost. Please make sure we — and the falcons — don’t suffer a similar fate in Oregon. Write the state’s Department of Fish and Wildlife to demand that wild peregrine falcons be left in the wild! You can also voice your opinion by attending the hearing at 8 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 7, 2011, before the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission, 3406 Cherry Avenue Northeast in Salem.

That’s right, our team is one of the first to get their hands on the prototype build of the upcoming control set.
When you look at the images, do note that this is a prototype build and things may be different in the final product. It currently doesn’t have the weight or correct feel as what the final product will, and the materials used are not final either. Regardless, this is the most detailed look of the controls so far.

Life is hard; then you die. That was my mantra for many years: “yes, life is tough — deal with it!” And sometimes we do, and sometimes it gets the better of us. I was thinking a lot about this recently, especially how we cope when life becomes unbearable. Which got me wondering who is better off? Someone who is having a generally OK/good-ish life and who recognises that adversity will strike now and again —so is prepared for it when it happens? Or someone who has suffered greatly, but who cames out on top and now knows only too well what adversity looks like and what needed to be done?
Life today seems so full of stress and pressure. Those who are buckling under the real pressures of life can be forgiven for not adopting the carefree arrogance of the self-help gurus preaching acceptance of what life throws our way. And it’s by no means rare for us to see ourselves as victims. “S/he made me feel bad”, and “Why is life always so cruel? Why is this always happening to me?” “It’s just not fair!”
It’s so easy to blame others for how we feel. And in the case of abusive parents or partners, that’s understandable, particularly when trust is broken or the abuse is prolonged. No-one can deny that life can indeed be hard and existence painful.
But the reality is that life is what it is. It’s not fair and it’s not unfair. It is what it is. We often can’t control what others say or do, even though we wish we could, and often forget that we can’t. It’s so easy to lose sight of who we are, and the person who was care-free and getting high on life one moment can so easily find themselves deflated and hurt. When that happens it’s natural to depend on for support. But it may not take much for our self-confidence to diminish — and then we risk becoming dependent on others for assurance and a sense of our self-worth.
And when we’re low (or even when we’re not) it’s inevitable that we compare ourselves with others. As Annie Lamott observed, we’re all a bit mixed up on the insides, but we’re always comparing ourselves to people’s outsides; when our self-esteem is low it’s so easy to feel inadequate in comparison to the picture our social media friends paint of their ‘perfect’ lives.
We see youngsters checking their phones a hundred times a day (or more). More often than not they are constantly seeking feedback, especially reassurances, in the form of ‘likes’ for what they post on social media. Not only that, but they are also checking they’re not missing out from what their friends are doing, and FOMO — fear of missing out — is becoming increasingly prevalent.
It can be so easy to allow our image of ourselves to degrade in comparison to others, and we can so easily feel inadequate. And then our sense of self-pity changes, and we transform from feeling victimised to becoming a victim. We all get self-absorbed, but when we become a victim we overthink, lose perspective, feel even more helpless, and soon we’re in the downward spiral. And we even feel entitled to feel this way.
2,000 years ago Marcus Aurelius, the Roman emperor and philosopher, offered some superb advice: “if we chose not to be harmed, we won’t be.” That seems so easy to say, but it’s absolutely true: so much of how we feel reflects the reject beliefs we have adopted. So if we change our focus and decide we’ve not been harmed, we haven’t been. We usually cannot control what others do or say. But we can control our judgement of what others say or do. If we choose to. Those who have come round to this perspective confirm how effective this mind-change can be.
So, although it doesn’t seem like it, it is a choice whether or not to become a victim. As Eleanor Roosevelt reminds us: No-one can make us feel inferior without our consent.
There’s always someone who doesn’t appreciate your good qualities. Don’t let it be you.E

Huddersfield manager Simon Grayson will not entertain any talk of a play-off challenge after seeing his side climb into the top six of the npower Championship with a 3-1 win over Yorkshire rivals Sheffield Wednesday.
Grayson's Terriers secured their third league win of the season thanks to first-half goals from Oliver Norwood and Lee Novak and Adam Clayton's controversial second-half penalty.
Sheffield Wednesday defender Reda Johnson pulled one back for his side, but the Owls crashed to their third straight league defeat, while both sides had a player sent off in an action-packed derby clash.
Town defender Joel Lynch was shown a straight red card for his scything challenge on Michail Antonio at the end of the first half and Wednesday defender Joe Mattock was dismissed for two bookable offences on the stroke of half-time.
Grayson said: "To come here and win the game 3-1 is obviously fantastic for us. We played quite well when we had the ball and withstood a lot of pressure with balls into the box and set-pieces. We're delighted to get a win here because it's not an easy place to come. It was an eventful night for both sets of supporters and managers."
Grayson, whose side have now gone five games unbeaten in their first season back in the second tier after 11 years, added: "We're maybe over-achieving, but the players we brought in are capable of doing things and putting in good performances and players already at the club are grasping the opportunity.
"I'm really pleased with how the players are playing for each other. We're passing it well and creating chances and when we have to defend we're defending well. We know there's a lot of hard work to be done. We're only six games in and we'll keep working hard. We've got some good players, but we're not going to get carried away.
"There's 40 more games to go, so plenty more points to be won and lost. We will get some negative results throughout the season, but the players are enjoying what they're doing. There's a momentum and a positive attitude among the players, the supporters and at the football club in general and it's great to have that as a manager."
Wednesday manager Dave Jones lamented his side's defending and said his players had to have a long, hard look at themselves after losing their way in recent weeks.
He said: "At the moment we can't defend. We're making basic errors. We can't let people get across us, we can't get shoved off the ball. They have two balls into the box and score two goals and that can't be right. We've got to be a bit stronger and a bit better than that."

text: If there are costs involved with the maintenance of pathogen resistance, then higher investment in this trait is expected when the risk of pathogenesis is high. One situation in which the risk of pathogenesis is elevated is at increased conspecific density. This paper reports the results of a study of density–dependent polyphenism in pathogen resistance and immune function in the mealworm beetle Tenebrio molitor. Beetles reared at high larval densities showed lower mortality when exposed to a generalist entomopathogenic fungus and a higher degree of cuticular melanization than those reared solitarily. The degree of cuticular melanization was a strong indicator of resistance, with darker beetles being more resistant than lighter ones regardless of rearing density. No differences were found between rearing densities in the levels of phenoloxidase, an enzyme key to the insect immune response. The results show that pathogen resistance is phenotypically plastic in T. molitor, suggesting that the maintenance of this trait is costly.

Earlier today, we spoke of Motorola working on the Quark X device which seemed like the company’s upcoming flagship smartphone, maybe even the Moto X successor.
Motorola has now mentioned that we can expect the Moto X successor to hit the markets by this summer, which is a tad earlier than the rumored arrival date. This comes as good news for fans across the globe as Lenovo has promised to bring Motorola smartphones to a wider range of countries. The information was given away by Motorola executives who were present at the MWC event in Barcelona.
The company also mentioned that its Moto Maker customization site will be launched in regions of Western Europe and Mexico by Q2. We expect more details to emerge on this as the days pass, but it seems like more regions across the globe could soon get access to Moto Maker. In other news, Motorola’s official Twitter page has announced the availability of the Moto X in India and Australia in the coming weeks. So the manufacturer is having quite an eventful day despite being relatively silent at the MWC.

Curry Favours: A super spicy Sri Lankan curry with a Singapore touch
Think you know all your curries? CNA Lifestyle’s new series looks at some ethnic curries that are well-loved in Singapore homes. This week, we taste a unique Sri Lankan curry that was born out of "necessity and desperation".
Twenty years ago, when Ramona Perera moved from Colombo to Singapore at the age of 16, there weren’t any Sri Lankan eateries or supermarkets here.
Coming from a country where “you have curry on the table at breakfast, lunch and dinner”, she craved the comforting curries she’d grown up with – and soon realised that the only way she would get to enjoy them was to make them herself.
READ: Curry Favours: Every Eurasian family has their own take on devil's curry
Although her parents didn’t cook, Ramona knew her way around the kitchen, having watched her grandmother whip up numberless dishes at home for family and guests.
“We would sit on the floor, and she’d be cooking, and we’d be helping her,” recalled the senior business immigration manager who’s now married with two children.
Her earliest kitchen memory is of watching her grandmother make pittu – tiny, chewy balls made with roasted rice flour, “one of my favourite things to eat with curry”. “Since she used to cook such good food, I wanted to cook good food,” she said.
Moving to Singapore with her parents and younger sister, it was out of “necessity and desperation” that she started to hone her cooking skills, Ramona confessed with a laugh. “Until very recently, there wasn't a Sri Lankan restaurant in Singapore, so whenever you craved (Sri Lankan food), you had to cook it yourself.”
She brought Sri Lankan curry powder in her suitcase, a spice blend more intense in flavour than the Indian curry powders commonly found here.
Using it to whip up familiar curries paired with dhal and vegetable stir-fries gave her and her family a comforting taste of home.
Over the years, she perfected her techniques and came up with dishes of her own, including a potent Sri Lankan beef curry.
With its thick gravy, abundant curry leaves and intense heat, the dish is the perfect accompaniment to rice or lightly toasted bread.
“It’s actually my own recipe, because I’ve had to use the ingredients that are available here in Singapore,” she said.
She usually relies on visiting friends and relatives to bring her Sri Lankan curry powder – her favourite is Jaffna curry powder, named for a region in Sri Lanka – and blends it with the Indian curry powders available in supermarkets here.
She uses the mixture to marinate cubed beef, along with saffron and chilli powder; then adds the beef to fried onions and garlic, as well as an abundance of spices – cumin, cinnamon, cardamom, curry leaves and green chilli – before adding a good glug of coconut milk.
“Sri Lankan curries typically contain coconut milk, which Indian curries don’t,” she explained. Another unique ingredient is cinnamon, giving the curries an earthier flavour.
And what’s more, Sri Lankan curries are also a lot spicier than Indian curries,” she said. “I use a lot of black pepper and chilli powder.”
A curry dish like this one, which could also be made with lamb, is typically eaten with dhal and pol sambol, a coconut relish made with fresh grated coconut, chillies, shallots, tomatoes and lime juice, she said.
These are enjoyed with rice or bread at any meal you like, even – or perhaps especially – breakfast.
And for Ramona, “It kind of feels like you’re back home – for a while, at least.”


car will not go into over drive
I performed a trans service. Heated the atf to 86 degrees f and topped off. Car shifted through all the gears but when I got into traffic and slowed down and started moving again ,the car would not go into overdrive and the engine light came on with the code for improper gear ratio for gear 3 and 4. i shut the car off and back on and the car shifted through all the gears again perfectly. This is how I know must drive the car. How can I stop this from happening.

Playtonic's Gavin Price told Eurogamer that the company could make the game "with a few hundred thousand pounds," and added that if the Kickstarter is able to go beyond that goal, "we will scale up the game and add features as fans want from us."On its Facebook page, Playtonic posted screenshots of Project Ukulele that show lush, colorful environments, begging to be explored. The team showed off the screenshots during a talk at EGX Rezzed 2015. One thing shown in the screen shot during the talk missing from the screens posted to its website is a peak at what seems to be a tease of one of the game's new characters.
In the bottom left of the screen shown during the presentation, a face can be seen in and amongst the foliage. Is this a glimpse of the game's protagonist? Playtonic hasn't revealed any character details, telling Eurogamer that to do so would reveal too much about the gameplay.
News of the Banjo-Kazooie successor first appeared last month, when Playtonic promised it was working on a "real, proper, actual game." In 2012, word first began to spread that a Banjo-Kazooie-type game was in the works. Seth Macy is a freelance writer who just wants to be your friend.

Let me explain it to you.<quoted text>Ah! So you're saying CONGRESS is to blame when things go south in the country. And Republicans hold the House right now. And Republicans are saying that everything is just awful right now. So -> Republicans are essentially saying that it is their fault that things are screwed up?
It's about time they saw the light.
No matter how badly Right Wingers "f.." up the country - it's not their fault.
No matter how much the Moderates and Progressives clean up the mess and improve the country - they don't get credit.
See - how easy is that to grasp.
Jeez - it's almost as if you have never learned Right Wing Wacko logic.
Glad I could help.

ProxyMesh supports prepayments with Crypto with a 20% bonus. For example, if you prepay $500 worth of Bitcoin, you will get an account credit of $600. Prepaid credits do not expire and will carry forward to future bills until they are used up.
The payment process works as follows:
- Go to the Crypto Prepayment page, linked on the right side of your dashboard.
- Click the payment button for the amount you want to prepay.
- You should see a popup to select Pay with Coinbase or pay with Bitcoin or Ethereum directly.
- If you select Pay with Coinbase, then login to your Coinbase account and confirm the payment.
- If you select Bitcoin or another crypto, then send the exact amount indicated on the popup, to the address shown on the popup.
- Once your payment is sent, the popup will update when the transaction is detected, and show the status of the transaction, as well as provide a link to a receipt.
- You will receive two emails, the first when your payment is PENDING, and the second when the payment is CONFIRMED. Both emails will include a link to your receipt, as well as the total value of your account credit. Receipts will look like this once payment is CONFIRMED. The receipt will only show the value of your payment, not the total value of your account credit.
- Once your payment is CONFIRMED, the value of your payment plus 20% will be added as a credit on your next bill.
Under and Over Payments
Due to the fluctuating nature of conversion rates, it is possible to make an under or over payment. The best way to prevent this is to send the exact amount of crypto indicated on the popup. However, if you do receive a message about an over or under payment, and you do not receive an email about your payment being CONFIRMED, then please contact Support with your Order number to resolve it. In your support request, please include the following:
- Order number
- Whether it is an under or over payment
- How you would like to resolve the payment, based on the options below
For an under payment, there are three options:
- We can refund your payment so you can try again. Please see the Refund section below.
- We can provide an address for you to send an additional payment, and then we will add the credit to your account.
- If the under payment is close to the right amount, we can add an equivalent amount of credit to your account.
For an over payment, there are two options:
- Add additional credit to your account based on the over payment.
- Refund the overage amount.
To process a refund, we will need an address to send the refund to. Please make refund requests ASAP if you would like exact amounts refunded. Due to the fluctuating nature of conversion rates, we cannot guarantee that you will receive the same amount of crypto back if your refund requests is many days after the payment. We also reserve the right to subtract network fees from your refund amount.

A LINK road can be built between Robin Hood Airport and junction 3 of the M18 as a result of £18m from the Government, it was announced this week.
The scheme will create better connections with the motorway network and is expected to make the airport a more attractive proposition for route and freight development and to unlock land for investment.
The £18m grant from the new Regional Growth Fund is the largest made to any local authority.
Mayor Peter Davies said: “This is the best news we have had for a long time and will transform Doncaster from being depicted as a disadvantaged town into one able to take advantage of all its natural assets and transport links to be a gateway to this country.”
However, Sheffield South East MP Clive Betts said: “It is amazing that not a single bid from a Sheffield company has been successful in securing support from the Regional Growth Fund.”
He added: “It’s another kick in the teeth for Sheffield businesses and entrepreneurs.”

Orchids in the Garden & Reblooming in the Soul is essentially a whispered conversation you and I might share about our journeys in a cozy corner of a cafe. These images were snapped of gardens within a lovely conservatory exuding tranquility and harmony. Spending time in the gardens stirred me to imagine ways in which I may more gently attend to my spirit’s interior garden.
In my neck of the woods, winter’s fierce chill relentlessly hangs in the air. Yet I landed in a pocket of tropical splendor, and just as I listened to icicles and winter trees, this day found me listening to orchids.
Orchids in the Garden & Reblooming in the Soul
It has been a brutal wintry season for the health of my body and spirit. I know you can relate. Mercy me, a stressful year has in a certain sense, buried me in overwhelm. These gardens bloom with encouragement and reassurance that change is natural.
Gratitude is Blooming Here
So stress may bury us, but thank goodness we’re seeds! Thank goodness there are blessed mercies raining and gifts of sunlight all around which prevent bitterness from taking root. I’m not interested in silver linings – anyone clever can conjure those. Eyes to see those mercies and ears to hear their music is rather where my attention goes.
Thank goodness we can look to palms, to ferns, to birdsong for encouragement, and with a little blog post, even pass it on.
Video in the Conservatory
A Need for Sanctuary
It is becoming increasingly clear to me that with the excessive global strife and political divisiveness in America, peaceful, contemplative, and meditative sanctuary time on Hello Lovely matters.
If simple daily stream of consciousness can birth life-giving beauty and rest for your souls, oh friends, I’m so IN.
Visiting a Conservatory in Winter
Over the weekend, we visited an orchid exhibit at this conservatory and gardens. While our son enjoyed the white stuff, snowmobiling for 75 miles in the cold outdoors, my soul came alive in a balmy greenhouse. What a nourishing, healthy way to spend a snowy afternoon. In a virtual snow globe, we could enjoy falling snowflakes, inhale the earthy air of tropicals flourishing, and feast on nature’s sensually vivid color.
Orchids in the Garden & Reblooming in the Soul
There is so much to learn ABOUT orchids, and if you’re like me, you might appreciate how much we can learn FROM orchids.
Orchids are complex. They can live: on the ground, attached to woody plants, or under the ground. Because of the nature of their roots which can draw moisture and nutrients from the air, they can even grow without soil.
Blooming Where I’m Planted
I’m stirred to consider how I too can grow in wisdom and beauty, regardless of where I am planted.
Orchids & Kokedama
Some of the orchids I saw were suspended from trees and trellises (below) thanks to the Japanese art of kokedama. A plant’s roots are encased in a ball of soil and wrapped with moss – allowing it to grow without a pot.
Kokedama is explained HERE.
Orchids depend on relationship for survival and have a tight bond with insects. They don’t always smell pretty, and in fact you may get a whiff of rotten meat. They miraculously produce millions of tiny seeds, yet only a few seeds grow into plants. Go HERE to learn more interesting facts about orchids.
Coaxing Orchids to Rebloom
If you have ever been saddened by an orchid’s fading, you will definitely want to click play (below) to learn about the plant’s dormancy and how to help it along even if its life appears to be over.
As you consider how orchids may be coaxed to rebloom, maybe allow your mind to open, relax, and recall past seasons when you struggled to bloom. When you required time to heal, recover, and make a comeback. When you patiently (or even less patiently) relied on gentle kindnesses and simply time to grow.
Coaxing Spirit to Rebloom
Reblooming feels like such a timely topic as the promise of spring hides just around the corner, yet may feel so distant.
I personally grow impatient during seasons of dormancy when it seems the vibrancy and green of my soul has taken a vacation. Perhaps you too have experienced feeling locked out of the garden. I long for greater resiliency and fluidity in my body, mind, and spirit, so that I may bend and twist in stormy winds, yet not break.
Seasons of change are more mysterious and potentially prosperous than we know!
Undiscovered Orchids in Bloom
One of the more wondrous facts I learned about orchids is how every year, hundreds of NEW species are identified. Our planet is blooming with tens of thousands of gorgeous orchid species…some of the plants look like owls, others like little men…yet a secret world of many more await discovery by our great great grandkids!
Undiscovered orchids move me to believe there are thousands of new mercies awaiting us with each new dawn. Like orchids hidden on rain forest floors, on branches in secret, and tucked ‘neath the earth, they exist…and I will trust the Mystery who knows where they bloom.

Hi Michele! I very beautiful and timely post today as I got a white orchid for Valentines Day! Thanks for all the tips on caring for them!!! Blessings to you!
So glad the timing is right! Thanks for the blessings. Wishing you peace, friend.
Thank you for the absolutely needed respite, Michele. Reading this is like opening a window to let in the sunshine and fresh spring-filled air. My breath has already slowed.
Awwww. Thank you for opening the window – your words are like honey. 🙂
Definitely “peaceful, contemplative, and meditative sanctuary time on Hello Lovely” do matter to me. Especially whimsies like a tiny model railroad track running through a tropical greenhouse. Charming!! My husband is a model railroader, himself, and I think he’ll enjoy watching the video while I dream of orchids.
I’m so happy you’re here – your heart is so lovely. 🙂
I love that you’re writing a memoir – you’re so talented! I read the first installment and look forward to the next. 🙂
I love orchids and always have two or three blooming in my home. Their graceful stalks are elegant in form and the delicate flowers endearing. Picked with several unopened buds, they will give you months of enjoyment and beauty.
When they are finished flowering, I take them to a neighbour who has a room just for orchids. I have forced buds on orchids in the past but it is more work than I want to put into them. This way he gets to add to his ever increasing horde and I get to buy a new beautiful orchid to grace my home.
I hope spring arrives soon to embrace you with it’s warmth and promise of new life. Blessings ~ Joanna
I bow to you and your skills – that is a wonderful arrangement you have with your neighbor. Thanks for adding this layer of beauty and for blessing. 🙂
That tea and chocolate calls my name all the time. When I lived in the Middle East, we had tea and chocolates everyday. That routine has stayed with me. I find myself craving it if I don’t have it for a few days. Crazy. Lovely photos of orchids and I especially loved the quote: flowers don’t think about the flowers next to it, it just blooms. It is so great and applies to us all. WE have orchids that bloom here in south Florida. Mine are not blooming now, but in a few months they will. Quite time for our own reblooming should be nurtured. You always have such beautiful and insightful posts.
Have a great week.
How incredible that you lived in the Mid East! I have had to satisfy my chocolate cravings creatively since I can’t easily digest fat…it’s frozen chocolate yogurt for me! Thanks so much for your support and encouragement, Bev. 🙂
Ah, such beautiful words and photos. Thank you for this peaceful time today! And thanks for sharing it at Thursday Favorite Things!
Thanks for reading, Pam – it’s great to have you here and join you at the link party. 🙂
You’re welcome, Michele! I loved the post and featured it today at the party.
Heading over now!
Beautiful post and inspiring post Michelle! Thank you for “passing it on!”
Thanks for reading, Amber. You’re so kind.

The Jefferson Market Branch of the New York Public Library, once known as the Jefferson Market Courthouse, is a National Historic Landmark located at 425 Avenue of the Americas, on the southwest corner of West 10th Street, in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, New York City, on a triangular plot formed by Greenwich Avenue and West 10th Street. It was originally built as the Third Judicial District Courthouse from 1874 to 1877, and was designed by architect Frederick Clarke Withers of the firm of Vaux and Withers.
Though faced with demolition in 1958, public outcry led to its reuse as a branch of the New York Public Library. The building is now part of the New York City Landmark Preservation Commission's Greenwich Village Historic District, created in 1969.

EBIT improves again significantly
Software AG increased EBITA by 48 percent in the third quarter to €52.3 million (Q3 2007: €35.3 million). EBIT grew from €32.4 million in Q3 2007 to €48.7 million, an increase of approximately 50 percent. The EBIT margin reached a record 27 percent compared to 20.5 percent in the third quarter of 2007. As a result, we raised our projection for full-year 2008 and are now calling for an EBIT margin of between 24 and 25 percent.
Research and development expenses rose by approximately 5 percent to €19.4 million compared to €18.4 million in Q3 2007. The increase was related to the successful integration of R&D departments and the corresponding synergy effects as well as the outsourcing of R&D services to low-wage countries. Marketing and sales expenses amounted to €42.2 million. This was approximately the same as in the previous year due to foreign currency effects (Q3 2007: €42.5 million).
Net income and earnings improve again
Profit after tax saw another significant increase in the third quarter, rising 61 percent to €31 million compared to €19.2 million in Q3 2007. The decline in the tax rate from between 36 and 37 percent to between 33 and 34 percent also contributed to the improvement of net income. Earnings per share improved from €0.67 to €1.08 in the third quarter. As of September 30, 2008, 28.6 million shares were in circulation (excl. dilutive shares), an increase of nearly 180,000 shares year-on-year.
Nine-month figures are solid basis for full-year 2008
The figures for the first nine months, along with orders on hand for the fourth quarter, support our current forecast for fiscal 2008 as a whole. During the first nine months of 2008, net income of Software AG rose by 17 percent to €508.2 million, up from €434.7 million in the previous year. Licensing revenue rose by 14 percent to €184.5 million in the same period (September 30, 2007: €161.6 million). Maintenance revenues increased by 25 percent, from €153.5 million in the first nine months of 2007 to €191.4 million. Due to consolidations, the Professional Services business increased by 12 percent in the first nine months to €130.5 million (September 30, 2007: €116.6 million).
The substantial rise in product business in particular had a positive impact on operating earnings: Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) improved by 34 percent to €125.6 million (September 30, 2007: €94.0 million). The EBIT margin rose from 21.6 percent to 24.7 percent. Operating cash flow was also strong at €96.3 million, an increase of 107 percent year-on-year.

Is a Cosmetic Filling Always Required for Cavities?
To some people, cosmetic fillings are considered expensive and uncomfortable. Because filling a cavity needs removing & drilling the decayed tooth, people are usually curious about what are the other ways a tooth cavity can be treated.
In the early days, a cavity gets treated by filling the tooth with a medically safe material to stop further tooth decay. However, as dental technology has advanced with time, people are studying other ways to treat dental cavities.
Avoiding dental drilling is generally favored by most people because it can be painful and difficult. Nowadays, there are other methods to treat a cavity so that a filling isn’t always needed. Today, we will go over whether or not a cosmetic dental filling is always required to treat a tooth cavity.
Cosmetic Filling: Is It Always Needed?
In short, the answer is no. Cosmetic fillings get used for treating cavities because a dentist wants to remove the decayed part of the cavity and fill it to prevent any further harm from happening. While there aren’t methods to remove a tooth cavity without using a cosmetic filling, there are ways basically to reverse tooth decay. So, what are the reversal ways?
When a cavity is in its early phase, fluoride can put the decay at a break as well as reverse the decay. The fluoride agents fix tooth enamel and ensure that it is healthy and durable. Fluoride treatments can be given in a dental office in Twin Falls, Idaho, or toothpaste and mouthwashes that have high amounts of fluoride, which is useful for day-to-day use.
Dental sealants are applied to teeth to protect against cavities. It is a clear plastic coat application that does precisely what it states — seals the tooth. They are generally applied to molars because molars need an additional shield since they chew and grind food.
Dental sealants may get applied to a tooth that is forming decay, and it will stop the decay & reverse the existing decay formation. It is most generally effective for a decaying tooth only when the tooth decay is in its earlier phases.
Cosmetic Fillings In Twin Falls
While cosmetic fillings provide an individual with a corrected tooth, they may not forever be essential. They can be costly and difficult to have done because it needs drilling of the tooth. Understanding what other treatment methods there are to remove dental cavities can allow a person who is worried about having a cosmetic filling done.
If you have questions regarding cosmetic fillings and whether or not they are required, but in some cases when the other options do not work, a cosmetic dental filling is the only left effective option. There are ways like sedation to numb your mouth while dentists do their work, so you don’t feel any pain or discomfort.

Abstraction is the fundamental change that took place in the Art world during the twentieth century. Until then, the goal of all artists was to capture external reality in a more or less subjective manner, but with Abstraction, each work is endowed with an autonomous language, and the artist makes his interior world known by means of material values.
It was not a spontaneously produced change. Currents such as Fauvism or Expressionism had already initiated the deformation of reality and the dissolution of the figure in favor of color and plastic materials. Impressionism also heralded to some extent this radical change of concept.
But the real father of Abstraction was Wassily Kandinsky. From the German Expressionism of “The Blue Horseman” group at the beginning of the century, he evolved towards a language that used color and geometry to express successive moods as is done in a musical composition.
In the last one hundred years Abstraction has followed very diverse paths, from its geometric variety to a lyrical one. All of them contribute nuances to a single concept of Art, more interested in a person’s interior being than in his or her surroundings. There are also numerous contemporary movements that are rooted in the abstract concept. From Neoplatisticism to Informalism, and including all of the Second Vanguard currents.

I bundled up in my carhart bibbies, the trusty parka, warm gloves and a headband to keep my ears from freezing off. I also dug out the tripod to keep my camera steady for the low light photography.
To get things warmed up, I dinked around with photographing the sun setting. Couldn't quite capture the pretty colors though like I did last summer. Maybe it was because I was starting to loose feeling in the tips of my fingers and was worried that the dogs would run into me, knocking the tripod over.
I was starting to grow a bit impatient with how slow the sun was setting. Normally, I don't want it to set so fast but tonight, I was wanting it dark!
Finally, the show is on. Love the cobalt blue and the lighter blue beneath it. Neat how you can see the earthlight shining on the dark side of the moon.
Just love the colors on this one, but it's starting to get a bit too dark to photograph. Ran inside after this shot to get feeling back in my fingers and nose. Thank goodness it wasn't windy! I'd be an icicle for sure.

Dubai-based Emirates Airlines said Monday (pdf) that it will start letting passengers on its A380 aircraft talk using their cellphones while in flight.
The service works with standard phones in conjunction with OnAir, the company that provides Wi-Fi service for Emirates’ aircraft.
A satellite data unit manufactured by Thales and branded TopConnect establishes a backhaul link to the ground through Inmarsat’s SwiftBroadband operating in the L band around 1500 MHz which allows the use of electronically steerable antennas mounted atop the aircraft fuselage.
The only major limitation is that, per Federal Aviation Administration rules, the phones can’t be used over the U.S., so the service shuts down within 250 miles of the States. Onboard pico cells ensure passengers’ GSM phones can only connect only to the on-board picocell and non GSM phones do not connect with terrestrial networks. Wi-Fi-enabled smartphones can also be used to access Internet OnAir.
The first call using the new system was made on Oct. 2 and was placed to China, Emirates said.
On Aug. 31, the Federal Aviation Administration has requested that its longstanding policy of prohibiting the use of personal electronics during takeoffs and landings be open for public comment.
The WSJ notes the restrictions date back to 1991, and were motivated in part by anecdotal reports from pilots and flight crews that electronic devices affected an airliner’s navigation equipment or disrupted communication between the cockpit and the ground. Pilots are currently supplied with iPads to store their flight plans, with blessings by the FAA.
The 363-pound Orbcomm satellite, built by Sierra Nevada Corp., is designed to provide two-way data communications services. Eight more second-generation, or OG2, satellites are due to launch on a dedicated Falcon 9 rocket in mid-2013. The rest of the 18-satellite fleet will be launched on another Falcon 9 rocket in 2014.
Orbcomm hopes to provide Automated Identification System for vessel tracking, worldwide, but has suffered a series of failures. Orbcomm’s satellite contractor, Sierra Nevada Corporation bought Canada’s SpaceDev, used by competitor ExactEarth for space-based AIS.
It is expected to begin its approach to the space station on October 10, where it will be grappled and berthed by Akihiko Hoshide of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. Over the following weeks, the crew will unload Dragon’s payload and reload it with cargo to be returned to Earth. Splashdown is targeted for October 28.
On August 3rd, 2012, NASA announced new agreements with the Sierra Nevada Corporation, along with SpaceX and Boeing, to design and develop the next generation of U.S. human spaceflight capabilities, enabling a launch of astronauts from U.S. soil in the next five years.


The steering of the future with racing driver DNA
"From Track to Road": Motorsport as a development accelerator for Steer-by-Wire, the digital steering system for autonomous driving
Autonomous vehicles have to steer, brake and accelerate. Professional racing drivers are pretty good at this. Big Data and the "Space Drive" technology from Schaeffler Paravan implement the know-how of motorsport professionals in the control algorithms of autonomous vehicles. This does not ensure fast lap times in everyday life - but it does provide a significant increase in safety.
When endurance champion Tim Scheerbarth races towards the Aremberg curve of the Nürburgring in his Mercedes-AMG GT3, brakes from over 250 km/h to well below 100 km/h, turns in, and briefly takes his foot off the gas when accelerating out into the Fuchsröhre to prevent the rear from swerving, he has a spy on board. Highly sensitive measuring devices register the steering angle, lateral acceleration, accelerator pedal position, speed as well as the driver's braking force. Over 200 parameters are constantly recorded and transferred to the Schaeffler Paravan data pool.
Schaeffler Paravan is responsible for the steering of the 550 hp bolide. As the first fully electric steering system for motorsport, "Space Drive" does without a steering column. The steering movement is transmitted to the steering actuators exclusively via electrical signals. A tried and tested technology that Paravan has been steadily developing in a completely different field since 2003: Car drivers with physical limitations and participation in road traffic is often what makes steer-by-wire steering possible in the first place. In 2020, the steering system was used for the first time in the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring. And was linked there to an ambitious goal that goes far beyond podium places or championships.
"We use motorsport with its extreme requirements as a test laboratory that generates an enormous pool of data for the use of Space Drive in autonomous vehicles," explains Roland Arnold, CEO of Schaeffler Paravan Technologie. "Because autonomous vehicles first have to learn how to steer, brake and accelerate. And who better to teach them than a pool of professional racing drivers?"
We use motorsport with its extreme requirements as a test laboratory that generates an enormous pool of data for the use of Space Drive in autonomous vehicles.
The algorithms learn from them which strategies are successful. How Markus Winkelhock absorbs the oversteer in the Sachs curve at Hockenheim - or how multiple DTM champion Bernd Schneider in the GT3 Mercedes manages to drive the Hatzenbach combination of the Nürburgring quickly and smoothly on a wet track.
The secrets of the champions are stored in the Schaeffler Paravan data pool. "We record all these driving conditions in order to find the right solutions in fractions of a second, even in critical situations, with a view to autonomous driving. This turns the race track into a development accelerator for series production for us - in line with our motto' `From Track to Road'," says Arnold.
With Space Drive 3 AddOn, Schaeffler Paravan is now taking the step towards series production. The redundant system relies on a consistent safety concept and meets the highest requirements according to ISO 26262. As an AUTOSAR-based system with direct connection to the vehicle electronics as well as communication and network architecture, integration into already existing driver assistance systems is possible.
Passengers of autonomous vehicles can therefore rely on the accumulated driving skills of many DTM and VLN champions in the future. Until then, the Space Drive makers are looking forward to their sporting successes, such as at the 49th ADAC TOTAL 24h Nürburgring last year.
In the second edition for a steer-by-wire vehicle, which manages entirely without a mechanical connection between the steering unit and steering column, the developers entered a Mercedes-AMG GT3 last year for the first time in the history of the 24-hour classic. With success! The team around the endurance specialists Philip Ellis, Darren Turner, Tim Scheerbarth and Dominik Farnbacher coped excellently with the not so easy conditions, crossed the finish line in 16th place and took the victory in their class (SPX).
"You hardly feel the bumps on the Nordschleife with Space Drive," says Dominik Farnbacher. "It drives a little differently. You get more feedback from the car and perceive everything a little differently, not through the steering wheel," reports starting driver Philip Ellis. "We are close to conventional steering," says Tim Scheerbarth, who has already sat in the Space Drive cockpit of the Porsche Cayman GT4 in 2020. "In racing, you drive at the limit for a long time, which helps Space Drive to develop quickly," says Darren Turner. The physical strain, especially over the long distance, is less.
For Space Drive, the demanding and material-demanding course of the Nordschleife and especially the adverse conditions at the beginning of the race were a real challenge. But it is precisely these extreme situations that are important for the Schaeffler Paravan data engineers in order to be able to generate resilient information, identify advantages and potential for improvement.


you know that New York Post cover...
just a couple of days ago...
showing the President with a blindfold over his eyes,
poking fun at his inability to see the truth about Islamic Terror...this one....
"I just don't see it," it says in the caption.
We might as well have a NY Post cover made for every democrat, left-winged liberal, progressive -- whether a Senator, or Representative, or Governor, or Head of the DNC (Debbie Wasserman Schultz) -- whether black or white -- whether man or woman --- the cover covers everyone and anyone who continues to stand behind this president with no doubt of his allegiance to America; and the caption would read the same... "I just don't see it."
They just don't see it because they don't want to see it.
Barack Obama -- in his campaign(s) leading up to the presidency, in his actions as president, and no doubt, in his continued efforts in retirement to use his position of influence even further in hopes of fulfilling his father's dreams of RE-organizing America -- shows us a man (just a man...tirelessly clinging to ambitions larger than life, even larger than his own ego) in utter contempt of America's history every day.
This contempt runs deep -- having grown and been shaped and earnestly persuaded of a certain ideology throughout his childhood and young adulthood from multiple fronts: his natural born father of Kenya, who he hardly knew really -- and the many influences of Marxist, Communist, Socialist mentors and associations (including his grandparents who raised him, his own mother's alliances, his pastor and mentor of 20 years, according to Obama himself -- Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Frank Marshall Davis , Rezko, Ayers, Khalidi, Rev. Pfleger...and Saul! Who can forget Saul Alinsky! Rules for Radicals lovers unite! Hillary....you, too....stand up...don't be shy).
And for the most part -- his childhood (the most impressionable years of a person's growth) was not on the mainland of America, but Hawaii or Indonesia. This is a huge detail, not to be dismissed as just G being crazy. (For more back story: READ THIS well researched post @American Thinker...dated October 30, 2008)
The background on Barack was all over the place before he was elected.
But the mainstream media was silent; the MSM -- refusing to vet the man fully and to this day, highly culpable to the fraud -- was just so love-struck, they might as well be on a cover, all of them, with blindfolds, with a caption "I just don't see it" written in red and smeared across the bottom of the page. I mean, my gosh, given the rise of the first "articulate ...and clean" African-American (am I right, Joe?)...what's not to love? It was like getting a thrill all up and down the leg, huh, Chris Matthews?
America was ripe for the taking.
We fell hard.
Even many of us on the right couldn't help but be excited of the thought of it. It was contagious and bellowing up from our core, his approval appeared nearly unanimous. America inhaled and now high on the loftiest of dreams, and ideals...... it was as if everyone's idea of an American president were being answered all at once. boom.
We wanted Barack Obama to be The One, hence the pillars and surround sound following him wherever he went.
The media chose to sweep whatever suspect influences and alliances by association under the proverbial rug because it was time, it was worth it -- he was just what America needed. And to be sure -- this African-American man who could speak (unbeknownst to us at the time, only by teleprompter) was going to fix race relations for the better, to be the end all of a long and brutal American history within the black community. With great hopes, we believed Obama was the fix for good.
I mean, honestly, people -- the American mainstream media -- can they really be trusted? Really? Brian Williams.
Now, thanks to people like Sharyl Attkisson -- we now know how transparent things really are under this administration and the lengths they will go to control the information and more important, control the media and their talking points. Desperate times call for socialist measures.
But now we've taken a far left turn.......
What the hell do you think "WE ARE FIVE DAYS AWAY FROM FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION" truly means? How many times have I had to embed that little youtube show of bravado? Not doing it today. Just not going there. If you want to hear it again, look it up yourself.
And what the hell...let's go here, too - - Michelle has made no apologies for saying this during the first campaign:
What, like change everything, Michelle, my belle?
Including "change our traditions, our history?"
[And just gotta love that she's in Puerto Rico talking smack against America]
And just how do you alter a history? Wow. To promise to change American history as a campaign promise -- that's good.
[It's funny, isn't it? It's not like Obama can change HIS history...IF Obama had a different history, perhaps more embed-ed with all things Americana, we would be able to find it. But it's not there, is it. And more important, he can't change it unless by means of deception.]
But let's keep going --
And to change our traditions, Michelle?
What the fucking hell?
Barack and Michelle are united in marriage and in their contempt for this country. Otherwise, why would they feel a need to change our history (however absurd that sounds) and our traditions with aplomb.
They both, in tandem and decidedly, hate what America stands for in every possible way.
I mean, come on -- Michelle was never proud of her country until hope springs eternal during the Obama campaign! Seriously?
Now of course, with every new presidency, and with each new administration, an air of confidence to bring forth a certain level of influence, leaving an imprint upon America, is a lofty and spirited and patriotic ambition. I would assume, anyway.
Generally speaking, becoming president of the United States, and by default, leader of the free world, history begs for a contribution. No doubt about it.
However, I'm pretty sure the joy of such a responsibility, chock full of umpteen possibilities, doesn't begin with a grudge -- a chip -- a despise beyond intelligent reason -- and essentially, an inbred ignorance of how America got here in the first place.
The secrets of America's success leading to the founding of an exceptional nation, under God, and within the guidelines of a limited government, trusting of a system of checks and balances to keep the power of an overzealous government in check -- is of no interest to Him.
Obama grew up believing in community organizing to bring about change and government syncing with the community to bring about a radicalized new America. Little by little, nudge by nudge, systematically regulating the culture, business, schools, immigration, healthcare, bureaucracy, media, a fundamental transformation of America within two terms becomes almost second nature over time -- and when he gets to his last two years -- when there are no campaigns left, right, Barack? -- it's time to bring out a new tack....and it's something I like to call going for broke.
Which is what we are witnessing now.
This president is shunning Bibi Netanyahu and Israel while negotiating with Iran. [um ah-hem... we are up against a deadline, March 24th]
This president is slamming Christianity while sheltering Muslims; and don't even get me started of how he can't even utter the truth about Islamic fundamentalists...President Barack "I just don't see it" Obama. Making a connection between the deaths in the Middle East at the hands of radical Islamists because, you know, the Crusaders did the same thing...are you kidding me?
I mean, who can be surprised given how this presidency began -- running around like a chicken with his head cut off, apologizing to the Muslim world about America.
This president called the thirteen deaths at Fort Hood "workplace violence" for goodness sake.
This president --- because he can't figure out how to close Gitmo, he is just releasing prisoners... just a few at a time....not to worry.
This president unilaterally changed immigration law, without a mandate and without congressional approval...And now, under this president, we are accepting refugees from Syria into America by the thousands. Security? Anyone?
This president fraudulently created another entitlement -- Obamacare -- lying to the American people about what it is, how it works, and ultimately upending one-sixth of this nation's economy. This president created a burden so great, by design, it will lead to either Socialist medicine and a single-payer system for all OR it will be the last straw....you know the one... the one that breaks America's back. (And just look how it's burdening the federal bureaucracy already..).
This president is hellbent on destroying free enterprise, our cornerstone of wealth creation -- advocating for such things as a $15 dollar minimum wage! ....recommended by a bureaucrat with no business experience.
This president claimed he was a big believer in "all of the above" energy policy -- but doesn't believe in the Keystone project? Hammers out reckless regulations to the coal industry? Nearly stops drilling for oil on federal property? Liar, liar, pants on fire.
This president wants to take over the INTERNET! Controlling commerce and free speech just for the politics.
I have to stop.
This president doesn't really love America the way America is intended to be. He wants to. He really wants to. At least, he wants you to believe he wants to, anyway. But truth is, that would be going against the anti-Colonialism -- and everything for which she stands -- fight running mighty strong and iron rich in his bloodstream.
He loves what he can do for America.
If he had his way, this president would have preferred to have been given a clean slate altogether -- to reorganize, remodel, and fundamentally remake America from her roots.
I don't know.
Of course, maybe you just don't see it.
There is that.
He is smart, you know; and articulate...oooh weee, yes he is....and highly educated......oooh wee, yes we can ........and clean......and how great is it that he is an African-American....finally. And this guy knows what we, the people, need before we even know we need it. It's truly amazing.
Perhaps, with any luck, the natural laws of oppression will catch up to us once again.
oh....almost forgot to say, go G, as in Guiliani. Guts and Glory with Gusto is a Good Thing for America.
Make it a Good Day, G

Terrain tools that affect height, such as Raise or Lower Terrain and Set Height, are reminiscent of painting tools available in image editors. In fact, Unity uses a texture behind the scenesA Scene contains the environments and menus of your game. Think of each unique Scene file as a unique level. In each Scene, you place your environments, obstacles, and decorations, essentially designing and building your game in pieces. More info
See in Glossary to implement TerrainThe landscape in your scene. A Terrain GameObject adds a large flat plane to your scene and you can use the Terrain’s Inspector window to create a detailed landscape. More info
See in Glossary, hence the tools ultimately act as texture painting tools.
The height of each point on the Terrain is represented as a value in a rectangular array. This array is represented using a grayscale image known as a heightmapA greyscale Texture that stores height data for an object. Each pixel stores the height difference perpendicular to the face that pixel represents.
See in Glossary. It is sometimes useful to work on a heightmap image in an external editor, such as Photoshop, or obtain existing geographical heightmaps for use in your game.
Unity provides the option to import and export heightmaps for a Terrain. Click on the Terrain Settings button (rightmost button in the toolbar with the gear icon). Under Texture Resolutions (On Terrain Data), there are two buttons labelled Import Raw and Export Raw. These options allow the heightmap to be read from or written to the standard RAW format, which is a 16-bit grayscale format compatible with most image and landscape editors.
