Two of the three NFL games to be hosted at Wembley next season will kick off in the afternoon, officials have announced.
The New York Jets' meeting with the Miami Dolphins and the Buffalo Bills' clash with the Jacksonville Jaguars will both get underway just after lunchtime when the NFL's International Series returns to London in October.
Fans in America will have to wake up early to catch their teams when the Dolphins host the Jets at Wembley on October 4, with a 2.30pm kick-off translating to 9.30am on the US East Coast.
The Jaguars then host the Bills at 1.30pm on October 25, which also gives a 9.30am kick-off on the East Coast due to the switch from daylight saving hours.
Last season, the NFL experimented with the afternoon kick-off in London when Atlanta hosted Detroit. It clearly was happy with the results, and opted for another this year.
No kick-off time has been announced for the November 1 game at Wembley between the Detroit Lions and Kansas City Chiefs.

Irena Pivka and Brane Zorman dedicated their two short early morning sound walks to the #WLD2016 event focusing on Sounds Lost and Found.
We have used binaural in-ear microphones* to record sounds at two very different locations in two different states: one was in park Tivoli in Ljubljana, Slovenia while the other was on the island of Molat in Croatia. At both locations we walked between two formerly important social places, located away from the centre, in the park and in a garden.
All objects (starting and ending points of both soundwalks) have been officially closed for a number of years and the facilities have declined. All of them have been closed due to recent historical, political and economical changes. Following the years of closure they have been attempts to revive these locations but it seems that the social interests have shifted in a different direction.
By connecting two locations in two different towns we highlighted the broken paths and connected the locations from our not so distant memories.
*For listening SoundCloud tracks we recommend using headphones.

A new study reveals that a large share of these emissions are embedded in traded agricultural and forestry commodities, mainly palm oil, soy, cattle (beef and leather) and timber products (including paper).
An open-access paper published in the May 2019 edition of the journal Global Environmental Change and now available online shows that 2.6 GtCO2 of net emissions per year were attributable to tropical deforestation in the period 2010–2014, and more than half of these emissions were linked to production of cattle and oilseed products, most notably soy and palm oil.
The paper shows that between 29% and 39% of total deforestation-related emissions in the period were embedded in internationally traded commodities, depending on the trade model used. This is much larger than the share of fossil carbon emissions embedded in trade. Efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from land-use change thus need to consider the role of international demand in driving deforestation.
Javier Godar, Senior Research Fellow at Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) and co-founder of Trase, is one of the authors of the paper. The work was led by Florence Pendrill and Martin Persson of Chalmers University, in collaboration with researchers from the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre in Germany, and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU).
According to Godar, the study is a major step towards understanding the role of the international trade in agricultural commodities in global emissions, because for the first time it looks at all tropical countries, and also calculates the emissions for both direct, physically traded flows and the consumption of more complex products in which the agricultural commodities are embedded.
“The most striking result is related to the fact that for many consumer countries, mostly developed countries, the deforestation emissions embedded in imported tropical agricultural commodities they consume rival the emissions from their own agricultural sectors. This underscores the need to include extra-territorial emissions in national accounting, and for consumer countries to support and finance anti-deforestation policies and more sustainable farming practices in producer countries”, he says.
The paper also shows great variation between countries and commodities in the share of deforestation-related emissions embedded in exports. For example, Latin America exports 23–34% of its emissions. Of these, 71–89% are in oilseeds and 11–21% in cattle meat. The Asia-Pacific region exports a higher share of its emissions (44–49%), and Africa a lower share (9–32%).
Worldwide, oilseed exports account for 62–76% of the embedded deforestation-related emissions, mostly coming from Asia-Pacific and Latin America to Europe, China and the Middle East. The same holds for the “other crops” commodity group, which includes high-value crops such as cocoa, coffee, tea and spices, with 68–75% of emissions exported.
The study findings highlight the importance of taking deforestation into account when assessing the carbon footprint of agricultural commodities from the tropics. It traces the emissions embedded in traded commodities through global supply chains to export markets.
Europe and China are the major importers of cattle and oilseed products from the tropics, and for many developed countries, deforestation emissions embedded in imports rival or exceed emissions from domestic agriculture. During 2010–2014, deforestation accounted for around a sixth of the carbon footprint of the average diet in the European Union (EU).
Finally, the authors discuss how the findings could inform mitigation policies. For example, they reinforce the idea that efforts to reduce tropical deforestation should focus on a handful of commodities and trade relationships. The authors suggest that carbon taxes on food products in export markets could help to address the deforestation carbon footprints of some agricultural and forest products.
“If you give tropical countries support in their work to protect the rainforest, as well as giving farmers alternatives to deforestation to increase production, it can have a big impact”, adds lead author Florence Pendrill.
However, the authors stress that interventions in producer countries are essential, as domestic demand still accounts for more than half of deforestation-related emissions.
The study was partly funded by PRINCE, a project that explored new consumption-based indicators for Sweden.

What Do You Buy At The After Christmas Sales?
Happy New Year! Wow! It’s 2019! That just seems so strange! Do you have big plans in this new year? Travel someplace new, moving, trying something different? I would love to hear about it. We will have Haley’s college graduation this year, which is pretty exciting! I’m so proud of both my girls.
So, do you do after Christmas shopping? What kind of things do you look for? My items to buy are Christmas wrapping paper, ribbon and tags. I usually find some other little things too, but this is what I hunt for.
I had some of the brown Kraft paper with gold polka-dots this past Christmas, and I fell in love with it. It looked so nice under the tree. I decided that is what I wanted for next year and I would combine it with white and gold with a few black touches.
In my opinion, Target has some of the best paper! It is nice and thick, comes in big rolls, and has lines on the back for cutting :). I headed out late morning the day after Christmas and there was still plenty to choose from. I found the Kraft paper with gold dots and some pretty white with gold too. Do you see the skull design in the back? Haley had found that before Christmas, so I bought one roll and wrapped all her presents in it. I was fortunate enough to find one more roll after Christmas too!
I also stock up on wired ribbon. You really can’t make a mistake tying bows or just knots with this ribbon. Most of the time, I just wrap it around the gift, tie a knot and then fluff up the tails. Done! And it looks good. It’s amazing what a little ribbon can do for a package.
I try to find coordinating tags too. I found these lovely white ones with gold glittery polka-dots and the black and gold too. I happened to find the perfect tissue paper too.
I know not everyone coordinates everything this way, but I really like how it all looks under the tree at Christmas. It makes my heart happy!
Thank you so much for following along here. Some of you have stuck around even when I haven’t been here. I really appreciate all of you! I hope you have a blessed 2019!
I hope you all have a wonderful day remembering God’s gift to us and a day filled with family, laughter and fun!
Hello! Is everyone gearing up for Christmas? Is everyone’s tree up and all decor is up? I have my Christmas tree up but not much decor. But don’t worry! I have my matching stockings up for me and my kitties. I want to make sure they get their gifts!
In my apartment, I share my porch with someone else. Now, they have some cute Christmas decor up but I don’t because I don’t have a big area to decorate. But, I love looking at Christmas porches and getting ideas for when I get my own place. So here are some of my favorites for you to ooooo and ahh over! Enjoy!
Hello! It’s getting colder and kind of rainy around here! So it’s finally beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Well…at least for this area of California.
So I love snacks and snacking, which is what this post is all about snack foods for Christmas! Some are more traditional and others are more fun. Either way, they are all delicious and ready to eat. Enjoy!
Hello! It’s getting even closer to Christmas and everything is turning festive! I’m getting excited! And my tree will be up shortly and decorated all in pink. I’m very excited!
This week I’m showing off some of my favorite Christmas mantles. Now, I don’t have a mantle in my apartment, but I love looking at them. Plus there are so many different ideas and ways to decorate. So, if you have a mantle and need some ideas, here you go! Enjoy!

JLL has released the South African Q1 2018 Market Reports for key markets across the country. These include the office markets in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town; the industrial markets in Johannesburg and Durban and an outline of the South African retail market. The analysis sheds light on several factors impacting development, vacancies and rental growth in the current commercial property landscape.
The buoyancy resulting from the appointment of a new President seems to be fading with the Rand seeing new weakening at the end of the quarter. However, developer confidence is strong across the main centres with pockets of optimism and opportunities for solid investment.
The Johannesburg office market is under pressure as the vacancy rate nears 13%, the highest vacancy rate recorded since 2010. Grade P office accommodation may have the lowest rate at 5.4%, yet quality stock has witnessed a significant increase of 2.7% compared to the same period in 2017.
The inner city and surrounding areas continue to exert the most pressure on the overall vacancy rate. Despite higher vacancies, Johannesburg remains the first-choice location for many corporates, with robust developer interest in the city. Activity continues be saturated in the Sandon, Rosebank and Waterfall nodes. As more high-quality accommodation becomes available, there will be opportunities for landlords to either refurbish or find alternative uses for older property, such as office to residential conversion.
Economic fundamentals remain a challenge in the Johannesburg industrial market, with recent ABSA PMI figures outlining a tough market in the manufacturing sector. Producers are likely to maintain low inventories and backlogged stock in line with low demand resulting in a reduced need for storage space. It is anticipated that rental rates will remain largely unchanged for now, but this may change in the future with the growing introduction of new accommodation and recent completions likely to create an occupier market in the Johannesburg industrial real estate sector.
Despite the city’s water crisis, vacancies in several nodes across the Cape Town office market are down to levels rarely seen. That said, there is evidence that the five-year upward trend in rental rates is beginning to slow down, with most areas likely to have reached their peak rates. Within this environment, developer confidence is strong. The pipeline in Cape Town has increased to 63,000m² in Q1 2018, almost doubling from 35,000m² in Q4 2017. With projects going ahead, this sends a strong message of confidence in the city.
In the Durban industrial market, low vacancy rates were recorded in the period, with analysis pointing to renewed interest in industrial accommodation in the Umbilo and Mobeni nodes. While the development pipeline is currently thinning out, it will be short-lived as recent data from Statistics South Africa indicates industrial building plans equaling 137,159m2 have been approved in the first quarter of 2018. There is no concern of oversupply as the high quality of new stock ensures it is taken up quickly.
Then, the Durban officemarket hit an overall vacancy rate of 14.0% in Q1 2018, the highest vacancy rate that the city has seen in years. However, a closer look reveals that vacancies only increased in Grade C accommodation, reflecting the transition to higher quality stock. While developer confidence is high and rental rates remain largely unchanged, it is difficult to tell the direction that the KwaZulu-Natal market will go. A sizable percentage of new developments are pre-let, pointing to a spike in vacancies when these buildings are ready for occupation. A telling sign will be if new buildings are able to achieve higher asking rentals despite the stagnation in demand. If yes, this points to a quality issue, if not, it will raise concerns of an occupier market developing in the city.
The South African retail market is seeing increased pressure across all types of shopping centres as trading density growth has slowed further. Shopping centre performance varies significantly, depending on their sensitivity to economic growth and consumer spending. Smaller retail centres, for instance, continue to outperform the bigger ones. While the average vacancy rate has edged up marginally to 4.2% from 4.0% in the previous quarter, there is still some positivity in the market. Consumer confidence for Q1 2018 reached a record high of +26 index points, surpassing the 10-year record level of +23 index points (FNB/BER Consumer Confidence Index).

tradition. What began in 1762 as a small market fair for its residents has since grown into the Hardwick Community Fair, now recognized as the oldest fair in the United States. This Friday, Aug. 15, marks the Fair’s 246th anniversary.
Fay Butler, president of the Hardwick Community Fair Association, is a lifelong resident of Hardwick. “I grew up at the Fair,” he says. “And maybe 30 years ago, I started working with the wiring and lighting. I still do that.” Butler became president nearly 12 years ago, at a time when the Association lacked leadership and financial stability. “We didn’t really have any management at that point,” he says, “and the Fair started to run into the red because the state dropped funding for premiums that we had to pay.” After becoming president, Butler held fundraisers, enlisted the support of local businesses and worked to control the Fair’s budget. For example, instead of hiring food vendors, all of the food items are now prepared and sold entirely by volunteers. This year, the Fair received a generous grant from the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources.
“More than anything,” Butler says, “I’ve tried to keep it a community fair, at low cost for people showing up. I don’t want people coming to the Fair feeling like they have a vacuum cleaner attached to their wallet. I want people to know that when they spend money at our Fair it’s going to directly to the operation or a local community group or artist.” Painters, potters, even a stone mason and a silhouette portraitist are just some of the artists who’ll be selling their wares. More than a dozen local markets and farms will be represented, selling fresh eggs, all-natural beef and poultry, organic produce, flowers and more. Other local businesses include The Hardwick Vineyard and Winery, the Hardwick Sugar Shack and Great Rock Alpacas of Barre.
Program highlights include pony rides, an antique tractor and implement parade, a chicken barbecue lunch, a lumberjack contest, a mountain bike ride/race and the ever-popular frog jumping contest. The buildings surrounding the fairgrounds (the Hardwick Common) will house judged exhibits of everything from conservation projects to crafts, field crops to flowers, and, of course, home baked goods. An auction of all of the exhibits will take place at the end of the fair, sending the blue ribbon-winning apple pie (fruit plate, maple syrup, etc.) home with the highest bidder.

Motorola Mobility's Moto X (2017) will be called the Moto X4, industry insider Evan Blass claimed on Saturday. Blass substantiated his statement by sharing an image depicting what's said to be the official logo of the Lenovo-owned company's upcoming device. The logo in question can be seen below and — if legitimate — is likely just one of many variants of the branding that Motorola Mobility prepared for the smartphone.
The Moto X4 was unveiled by the Libertyville, Illinois-based firm behind closed doors earlier this week, as evidenced by a number of leaked photographs from the event. According to those images and many previous corresponding reports, the latest addition to the Moto X lineup will boast a 5.5-inch LCD display panel with a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels and sport the Snapdragon 660, Qualcomm's latest mid-range system-on-chip (SoC) that was officially announced on Tuesday. The device is also thought to feature 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage space that will likely be expandable via a microSD card slot by up to 256GB, though the latter has yet to be confirmed by any industry source. Furthermore, the Moto X4 is expected to be powered by a 3,800mAh battery that won't be removable but should offer above-average battery life considering it's paired with a rather conservative piece of silicon.
Previous rumors have indicated that the upcoming Moto X4 will be Motorola Mobility's first smartphone with a dual camera setup, though recent reports on the exact sensor configuration and LED flash placement of the device have been conflicting. On the other hand, most sources seem to agree that the phone will boast IP68 certification and be priced in a rather aggressive manner. The Moto X4 is also said to lack a traditional 3.5mm audio jack and will instead only sport a single USB Type-C port, a trend that the Lenovo-owned phone maker already started embracing with its recent models. Finally, the handset's body is expected to be made of metal, while its screen will take advantage of 3D glass, previous reports have suggested. There's still no word on when the Moto X4 will be hitting the market, but the device will likely become available in the United States and a number of other markets in the coming months.

Commercial unitary air conditioners (CUACs) and heat pumps (HPs), often called roof-top units (RTUs), are typically used to cool small- to mid-sized commercial buildings such as schools, restaurants, big-box stores, and small office buildings. They reject heat to the atmosphere by blowing outside air over the condenser coil. CUACs may also contain a gas heating section.
The Energy Policy Act (EPAct) of 2005 updated the original 1992 federal efficiency standards for CUACs and HPs with cooling capacities from 65,000-240,000 Btu/hr, and established new standards for equipment with capacities from 240,000-760,000 Btu/hr. The EPAct standards took effect on January 1, 2010. Cooling capacity represents the amount of heat that an air conditioner or heat pump can remove from an enclosed space per hour. The cooling efficiency of CUACs and HPs is currently measured by the energy efficiency ratio (EER), which is the cooling capacity (in Btu/hr) divided by the power input (in watts). The heating efficiency of HPs is measured by the coefficient of performance (COP), which is the heat delivered (in Btu) divided by the energy input (in Btu). These standard levels are the same as those published in the commercial building energy code, ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) 90.1 in November 2010.
In April 2015, DOE formed a working group to negotiate potential new energy conservation standards for commercial CUACs and HPs with cooling capacity of 65,000 to 760,000 Btu/hr. The working group recommendations were ultimately adopted by DOE in a December 2015 final rule. The new two-stage standard is based on a metric called IEER (integrated energy efficiency ratio), which captures efficiency at 25, 50, 75, and 100% of full capacity, better reflecting the range of operating conditions. The first stage would require that new rooftop air conditioners meet the efficiency levels in ASHRAE 90.1-2013, about 10% more efficient than current standards. The second stage would requite minimum IEER levels of 12.3 to 14.8 (depending on equipment type and capacity), about 25-30% more efficient than current minimum standards. DOE estimates that over the lifetime of units sold over thirty years, the proposed standards would save businesses nearly $50 billion (at 3% discount rate) and reduce electricity consumption by about 15 quadrillion Btu, more than any other efficiency standard ever adopted by DOE. The first stage would go into effect on January 1, 2018 and the second on January 1, 2023.
Technology options for improving the efficiency of CUACs and HPs include higher efficiency compressors, compressor staging, larger and better heat exchangers, higher efficiency fan motors and fan blades, and improved expansion valves. DOE’s High Performance Rooftop Unit Challenge has helped spur several manufacturers to develop and bring to market high-efficiency rooftop air conditioners. Equipment on the market today achieves IEER levels as high as 21.
* State standard never went into effect due to preemption by federal standard.

August 16, 2002 - 9:30 p.m.
When I got here I asked the guy behind the bar when the place closed, and he replied "Nine, nine-thirty, ten, who knows?" Then he and the men drinking at the bar laughed as though it were ridiculous for such information to be known in advance of the the fact. It was a warm day and I asked for a glass of water with my espresso, and the water I got was very cold. The espresso came with a maroon tube of powdered sugar. Later I splurged and ordered a Coke as well. I wish that I knew something that tasted better than Coke but I don't, so I can't help but drink it from time to time.
There was a manic white poodle here earlier. I have never seen such a hyperactive dog. It would start barking like crazy every time someone skated by, and unfortunately there were two boys (one on rollerblades and one on a skateboard) who seemed to be going around the block endlessly. The woman who owned the dog ordered an "ice tea," but asked for it without ice. Finally she and her demon dog left. The boys circled around the block a couple more times and then they went away. It's 10:00 o'clock now and a man in a yellow shirt is stacking up the outside chairs, so I guess I'm about to leave as well.

Aseptic processing solutions; CIP bag dump station; Plus More!
With looming deadlines and extensive requirements, now is the time to get hygienic equipment design training for virtually everyone involved in food processing operations.
There is a new urgency to understand the fundamentals of hygienic equipment design since we addressed this subject in a column last year.
Dairy brands looking to capitalize on consumers’ desire for nutritious, portion-packed milk can do so by investing in extended-shelf life technology.
We spoke with Jean-Pierre Berlan, sales director for Tetra Pak Processing U.S. and Canada, to learn more about extended-shelf life (ESL) technology. He talked about that as well as the market opportunity available by investing in ESL processing.
The benefits of extended shelf life processing include opportunities in product innovation and extending the distribution area for dairy products.
Byrne Dairy is a family-owned, 84-year-old dairy processor that has kept up with the times. The Syracuse, N.Y.-based company started in 1933 with fresh milk in glass bottles. Today at its Ultra facility, Byrne manufactures various extended shelf life milk products with code dates ranging from 70 to 180 days.
Learn about this and other technologies at the Innovation Stage at ProFood Tech in Chicago.
The ability to predict moisture, protein and fat levels accurately in dairy products can help ensure product uniformity and reduce variations. A seminar at ProFood Tech dives into the use of in-line analyzer technologies.
High temperature/short time pasteurization is the industry standard practice for now. Other technologies will gain acceptance, especially if they can add value to milk.
Dairies typically apply heat to raw milk. They use high-temperature/short time, higher-heat/shorter time or ultra-high temperature pasteurization. There are alternatives to heat-based pasteurization, such as applying high pressure or using UV light.
The Ross X-Series is a CIP-ready ultra-high-shear mixer ideal for inline emulsification, particle size reduction and homogenization.
Conveying systems and palletizing systems move ingredients and finished products nonstop.
Conveyors move raw materials and finished products through a dairy plant. After filling, packages might travel to secondary packaging stations, to freezers, to warehouses and to pallets.

For this was the very question, namely, that when Christ spake of His passion, they were disputing who should be at the head, and as it were the vicar of the absent Christ. There Christ reproves this error of the apostles and teaches that there shall not be lordship or superiority among them, but that the apostles should be sent forth as equals to the common ministry of the Gospel. Accordingly, He says: The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors, but ye shall not be so; but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. The antithesis here shows [By holding these matters against one another, one sees] that lordship [among the apostles] is disapproved.
1] The Roman Pontiff claims for himself [in the first place] that by divine right he is [supreme] above all bishops and pastors [in all Christendom].
2] Secondly, he adds also that by divine right he has both swords, i.e., the authority also of bestowing kingdoms [enthroning and deposing kings, regulating secular dominions etc.].
3] And thirdly, he says that to believe this is necessary for salvation. And for these reasons the Roman bishop calls himself [and boasts that he is] the vicar of Christ on earth.
4] These three articles we hold to be false, godless, tyrannical, and [quite] pernicious to the Church.
5] Now, in order that our proof [reason and opinion] may be [better] understood, we shall first define what they call being above all [what it means that he boasts of being supreme] by divine right. For they mean that he is universal [that the Pope is the general bishop over the entire Christian Church], or, as they say, ecumenical bishop, i.e., from whom all bishops and pastors throughout the entire world ought to seek ordination and [confirmation, who [alone] is to have the right of electing, ordaining, confirming, deposing all bishops [and pastors]. 6] Besides this, he arrogates to himself the authority to make [all kinds of] laws concerning acts of worship, concerning changing the Sacraments [and] concerning doctrine, and wishes his articles, his decrees, his laws [his statutes and ordinances] to be considered equal to the divine laws [to other articles of the Christian Creed and the Holy Scriptures], i.e., he holds that by the papal laws the consciences of men are so bound that those who neglect them, even without public offense, sin mortally [that they cannot be omitted without sin. For he wishes to found this power upon divine right and the Holy Scriptures; yea, he wishes to have it preferred to the Holy Scriptures and God’s commands]. And what he adds is still more horrible, namely, that it is necessary to believe all these things in order to be saved [all these things shall and must be believed at the peril of forfeiting salvation].
4] Lastly, there still remains the Pope’s bag of impostures concerning foolish and childish articles, as, the dedication of churches, the baptism of bells, the baptism of the altarstone, and the inviting of sponsors to these rites, who would make donations towards them. Such baptizing is a reproach and mockery of Holy Baptism, hence should not be tolerated. 5] Furthermore, concerning the consecration of wax-tapers, palm-branches, cakes, oats, [herbs,] spices, etc., which indeed, cannot be called consecrations, but are sheer mockery and fraud. And such deceptions there are without number, which we commend for adoration to their god and to themselves, until they weary of it. We will [ought to] have nothing to do with them.
2] And such faith, renewal, and forgiveness of sins is followed by good works. And what there is still sinful or imperfect also in them shall not be accounted as sin or defect, even [and that, too] for Christ’s sake; but the entire man, both as to his person and his works, is to be called and to be righteous and holy from pure grace and mercy, shed upon us [unfolded] and spread over us in Christ. 3] Therefore we cannot boast of many merits and works, if they are viewed apart from grace and mercy, but as it is written, 1 Cor. 1:31: He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord, namely, that he has a gracious God. For thus all is well. 4] We say, besides, that if good works do not follow, faith is false and not true.
The lesser, that is, the true Christian excommunication, consists in this, that manifest and obstinate sinners are not admitted to the Sacrament and other communion of the Church until they amend their lives and avoid sin. And ministers ought not to mingle secular punishments with this ecclesiastical punishment, or excommunication.

By the mid-1980s South Africa was in flames. A state of emergency had been declared. There seemed to be no good news in the papers. Fear and hatred were rampant as horror piled upon horror.
Artist Michaletos spent much time and introspection considering how to discover and salvage the positive aspects from even this somber scenario. She conceived what was, for her, the antidote to the vicious circle of violence that escalated daily: a Precious Circle. She was convinced that if violence begets violence, and negativity begets negativity, then the opposite would also be true. She decided to take responsibility for the focus of her attention and the content of her thoughts. She would not be drawn into the general cycle of negativity and fear and despair. She believed that her new, positive thoughts would influence her actions and that her actions would inevitably, in some way, influence those around her. She envisioned a complete change in society as we know it, starting with herself.
She became passionate and energized. Every single day, she diligently trawled South-African newspapers and magazines and made clippings of any positive headlines she found. As her pile of words grew slowly but surely, they suggested categories: happiness, winning, beauty, success, dreams, religion, moral values, peace and hope. Considerations of colour and composition further sorted the words. Michaletos carefully arranged them, like puzzle pieces, into large, thought-provoking collages, each with an inspiring theme and a strong sense of colour and balance.
When Michaletos started her project, events were unpredictable, the situation was volatile, the country rapidly changing. Nelson Mandela was still in jail. What would the future hold?
The artist had no idea where it was leading her, but she had absolute faith in her Precious Circle’s power to transform. She gradually became aware of unexpected and increased blessings in her own life, like the undreamt-of invitation to present a retrospective exhibition of her work at Schloss Ettlingen in Germany in 1991. She became convinced that by performing her daily ritual she was ‘magnetizing’ herself to attract the positive. She was totally committed to her daily task. She determined to keep on until she received some ‘sign’ that her job was done. Sometimes, when there was nothing positive to be found, she defiantly snipped the un- from unlucky or unhappy and triumphantly preserved the HAPPY and LUCKY! For her it was like a continuous prayer or meditation to concentrate on the positive and optimistic.
The ‘sign’ she was awaiting arrived on May 10, 1994. It was the day Nelson Mandela was inaugurated as President of South Africa. Miraculously, international as well as local newspapers contained all the positive words she had been searching for for the past six years and were splashed with words such as MIRACLE! Finally, Precious Circle was complete, with fifty collages spanning a monumental 22 metres.
During those crucial years in South-African history Michaletos’ Precious Circle collages documented the hopes, dreams and aspirations of a whole society caught up in a process of inevitable change. The world had predicted that the death of Apartheid would be written in blood. It was not. Individual South Africans had been praying; had determined to focus on the positive.
Aleta Michaletos: ´Secret´, ca. 1994, newsprint collage from Precious Circle project, 66.5 x 54 cm.
Aleta Michaletos received her B.A.F.A. from the University of Pretoria. She serves on several art-related committees, has been a guest speaker at Dort College in Iowa and the United Nations Headquarters in NY, and is upon occasion a guest lecturer at the University of Pretoria and the Open Window Art Academy based in South Africa. She is a respected voice in contemporary South African art, and has received international recognition and acclaim. Michaletos is currently working on a major 2-year project which will reflect the theme ALCHEMY. Precious Circle is a typical example of art’s alchemy: cheap and disposable newsprint in her hands becomes something monumental, lasting and valuable.

Nearly 424,000 individuals with I/DD—75,000 more than in the previous Case for Inclusion report—were on states’ waiting lists to receive Medicaid-funded Home and Community-Based Services.
Only fourteen states and the District of Columbia had closed all large, state-operated institutions that warehouse individuals with I/DD.
For the first time this year, the Case for Inclusion incorporates states’ participation in the National Core Indicators (NCI) staff survey into the scoring process that determines’ state rankings. Participation in this survey is critical as it helps shed light on what we know to be a significant workforce crisis among Direct Support Professionals, the frontline staff who make community integration possible. Twenty-four states had participated in the most recent NCI staff survey.
Thirty-three states, one more than in 2016, meet what’s known as the 80/80 Home and Community Standard, meaning that 80% of all individuals with I/DD are served in the community and 80% of all resources support their ability to be part of the community and live in homes with fewer than seven residents.
Just 16 states, up from 15 in 2016, support a large share of families (at least 200 families per 100,000 state residents) through support services that empower individuals with I/DD to remain living in their family home.
Only 15 states, unchanged from the 2016 report, successfully placed at least 60% of individuals in vocational rehabilitation jobs.
Just 15 states, also unchanged from 2016, report that at least 10% of residents with I/DD use self-directed services, which allow them to design the supports they receive based on their specific needs.

St Peter’s was originally built at the beginning of the 13th century, possibly on the site of an even earlier church, but was restored in 1820 and again in 1870 which is when most of the external stonework dates from. Today, it is the oldest surviving building in Berkhamsted and, architecturally, the most important.
It is in the Early English style, with clustered columns typical of the period. The church has a cruciform framework with a crossing tower. Original 13th Century windows survive in the old chancel and north aisle but most of the windows are of 14th century date.
The tower has a ring of eight bells re-cast in the Whitechapel Foundry at various dates between 1838 and 1946. The Church clock by Thwaites & Read of Clerkenwell dates from 1838. The principal organ is by Peter Collins and was introduced during the reordering of the church in the 1980s. The church also houses a small Bryceson pipe organ and has recently acquired a Kawai 7′ concert grand piano. There is seating for around 450 in the congregation.
Throughout the church there is a good selection of Victorian stained glass and brasses from as early as the 14th century. There is also a medieval coffin top tomb (c.1200) with floriated cross in St Catherine’s Chapel near the south door. The font by the west door is made of marble and introduced in to the church in 1870 whilst the pulpit’s carved angels date from 1910. The Lady Chapel on the north side of the church is a lovely vaulted space and was probably part of the original 13th century building.
The churchyard, closed in the nineteenth century, is an attractive area of lawn, on the north side of the church, with several mature trees (cedar, common lime, silver lime) and bounded on the north side by the original Berkhamsted School building of 1541-4. A yew tree, probably about 350 years old, stands within the churchyard by the junction of the High Street with Castle St.
The earliest written reference to the church is to be found in a document dated 1161, signed by Thomas a’Becket, who lived in Berkhamsted castle at that time. The main body of the church was built between 1370 and 1450 although the tower is probably of a little earlier date. It has undergone many changes since then, being extended in 1812, restored and re-modelled in 1876, extended again in 1964 and underwent major repairs in 1991.

Kandy Sadosky, LMT has been a licensed massage therapist since 2012. A transplant to Arkansas, she was born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska. Kandy attained her initial education in massage from Touching America School of Massage in Maumelle, AR. Since then she has also added several courses in her continued education process of massage therapy.
Having experience in both a salon as well as a physical therapy office, she very much prefers the clinical setting appose to spa type services. Previous clients include people from all ages, walks of life, and physical/athletic ability. Many seek massage due to stress and/or relaxation. However, with growing needs of clients such as those with fibromyalgia, pre-natal needs, migraines, or even soreness from intense athletics, Kandy is happy to customize each massage to the specific needs of the individual client at each session.
Though Alaska will always be home, Kandy, along with her husband and daughter, has enjoyed all that Arkansas has to offer since moving here in 2010. Aside from massage Kandy’s main interests include, doing anything outside during a hot Arkansas summer and spending time with friends and family. She is most proud of the opportunity that she has had the last few years to be a youth sponsor for THE POINT Student Ministries, the youth group of Changepoint Church in Cabot.
Kandy is very excited to be working within Next Generation PT to be able to incorporate massage therapy into your health and wellness regimen.

The other night, I ordered in so I could continue working late, preparing for all the beautiful souls joining The Binge Breakthrough. And I did something that years ago I would’ve NEVER even thought of, but these days I consider one of my secrets to success with food. When it was time to eat, I instinctively pushed aside my laptop, and gave full attention to what I was eating. Here’s why this little act works wonders.
Have you ever inhaled a bag of chips or a sleeve of cookies, only for it to feel like an out-of-body experience that you didn’t really… experience? Even if you were stuffed, it probably wasn’t long until you were craving something again, right?
That’s because speed-eating is kind of like speed-reading. You know how when you read too quickly, you start to glaze over and miss half of what you’re reading? Usually, you have to read the whole dang paragraph again just to get what’s being said.
Speed-eating is kind of like that. It’s no wonder that if you aren’t truly present for eating something, your body isn’t going to register that you ate, nor get the satisfaction from it, and you’re going to still feel hungry for something soon after.
Like many things in life, slow and steady wins the race.

At the start I didn't know what to expect.. In all honesty I didn't think I would still be on the diet but I am.. To date I have lost 19lbs and two dress sizes. I am ecstatic with the progress and nice to fit into some older clothes. I just have another 40lbs to lose and then I'll be at my target weight.. Hope everyone's weigh ins went ok this week and have a great weekend everyone.
Hey Kitkat, what a star you are! Well done you...start shopping for the sparkly dress?
19lbs in just 4 weeks??!! Wow, that's incredible! Well done you!
19 lbs is a big loss well done.
The only reason I am surprised is due to I tried to start it 4 times before but just went back to my normal ways and it wasn't until I seen my holiday photos I knew I had to change. Now that I have started I wouldn't have changed my decision for anything as the progress is going well and it's an achievement I will remember.
That's incredible. 19lbs is a lot. You should be very proud of yourself. Keep focused you can do it. Onwards and downwards.
Well done, that's a great start! You're clearly doing things right!
As you get closer to your target things do slow down so dont worry. It can be a danger for some people who then give up.... but just keep on going!!. When you're a stone or so from target you will need to recheck your BMR and adjust your calories a bit. My target was to lose 2stone. It took me 12 months altogerher but SLOW is good, more likely to keep it off. Ive kept to my target weight now since april . You can too!
so good, you are a real inspiration. When my son did ironman I said to him how did you keep going all that time, something like 16 hours or there about and he said break it up into little bits. so mentally he was achieving mini goals to get him round. To me this is like that. Good luck well done.

On June 14 in Washington, D.C., the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) hosted its only public hearing on its proposal to weaken the Chemical Disaster Rule. BlueGreen Alliance National Director for Occupational and Environmental Health Mike Wilson and Executive and Program Assistant Alana Byrd were among the many witnesses urging the agency not to rollback the important protections included in the rule.
for the most dangerous subset of facilities, assessing the applicability of safer technologies and practices so that if a problem occurs (whatever the cause), fewer people will be killed or injured.
Wilson, a former fire fighter, paramedic, and EMT noted particular concerns with the proposed rule’s elimination of the requirements related to emergency response. “EPA’s proposed changes will endanger the lives of my former co-workers in the U.S. fire service, and they will endanger workers and millions of community members and their families who live around our nation’s chemical facilities,” Wilson said.
EPA has estimated that roughly 177 million Americans live close enough to an industrial facility to be affected by a chemical accident, and that risk falls disproportionately on low-income and minority communities. Additionally, one in three schoolchildren currently attends a school in the vulnerability zone for an industrial chemical accident. There are also countless workers at industrial facilities who walk into potentially dangerous situations every day and first responders who put their lives on the line whenever an accident does occur.
Serious chemical accidents are preventable if the necessary precautions and actions are taken, and yet serious industrial chemical accidents continue to occur every two-and-a-half days across our nation. Numerous chemical incidents have occurred since the rule was placed on hold.
EPA’s proposal reflects a disregard for the safety of American workers, who are hurt “first and worst” when a refinery or chemical facility owner fails to invest in modern engineering practices to prevent a fire, explosion or release, or to respond to workers’ concerns about the need for maintenance or corrective action. The Chemical Disaster Rule will genuinely improve public safety and must be pushed forward in its original form, not weakened or delayed as the administration has proposed.

Each year, we offer a look at the most popular stories at producer.com. It’s interesting to see the eclectic mix of stories that pique readers’ interest. From 2016, here is The Western Producer’s Top 10 list.
10. “Diagnosing lumps and bumps.” A column about cattle infections published in June by columnist John Campbell.
9. “Prairie farmers assessing their losses.” Published in October, this story outlined the effects of the weather on the harvest. By late in the month, many Saskatchewan farmers had thousands of acres yet to harvest, but a generous November returned them to their fields.
8. “Is glyphosate really dangerous?” In March, University of Saskatchewan professor John Giesy took issue with the World Health Organization’s conclusion that glyphosate probably causes cancer.
7. “Seeder’s reach stretches 160 feet.” Published in June 2014, this is the story (with video) that just keeps going. It’s about the Multi Farming Systems seeder from Australia.
6. “Fatal farm accident reinforces need to watch for power lines.” A tragic story published in June about the death of Carrot River Valley farmer Francis Rodier.
5. “Cattle bloat: early diagnosis, treatment is essential.” A column by Alberta veterinarian Roy Lewis about the cause and treatment of chronic bloaters.
4. “Could India’s 2016 monsoon disappoint again?” This one lit up our analytics when it was published in January, predicting that “western Canadian farmers are expected to plant more peas and lentils in 2016, based on intense Indian demand for those crops.” They did indeed.
3. “116 bushel canola in Saskatchewan.” Another story that remained popular throughout the year. It is about the winner of the DuPont Pioneer’s 2015 Yield Challenge Contest, Florian Hagmann, who farms near Birch Hills, Sask.
2. “Bin fire destroys 1,600 bushels of canola.” The photo and story published in December are about a 2,300-bu. hopper bin that contained 1,600 bushels of canola when it caught fire near Kelvington, Sask.
1. Our top story last year had more than twice as many page views as the second place story — with 109,499 views. Readers swamped producer.com as soon as we posted it. “Tisdale, Sask., farm sells for $26.5 million.” Published in September, the sale of Miner Creek Farm by producer Sam Rey was thought to be Western Canada’s largest operating farm sale.

Transcriptional profiling of Gram-positive Arthrobacter in the phyllosphere: induction of pollutant degradation genes by natural plant phenolic compounds.
Scheublin TR, Deusch S, Moreno-Forero SK, Müller JA, van der Meer JR, Leveau JH. Transcriptional profiling of Gram-positive Arthrobacter in the phyllosphere: induction of pollutant degradation genes by natural plant phenolic compounds. Environ Microbiol. 2013;.
Arthrobacter chlorophenolicus A6 is a Gram-positive, 4-chlorophenol degrading soil bacterium that was recently shown to be an effective colonizer of plant leaf surfaces. The genetic basis for this phyllosphere competency is unknown. In this paper, we describe the genome-wide expression profile of A. chlorophenolicus on leaves of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) compared to growth on agar surfaces. In phyllosphere-grown cells, we found elevated expression of several genes known to contribute to epiphytic fitness, for example those involved in nutrient acquisition, attachment, stress response and horizontal gene transfer. A surprising result was the leaf-induced expression of a subset of the so-called cph genes for the degradation of 4-chlorophenol. This subset encodes the conversion of the phenolic compound hydroquinone to 3-oxoadipate, and was shown to be induced not only by 4-chlorophenol but also hydroquinone, its glycosylated derivative arbutin, and phenol. Small amounts of hydroquinone, but not arbutin or phenol, were detected in leaf surface washes of P. vulgaris by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Our findings illustrate the utility of genomics approaches for exploration and improved understanding of a microbial habitat. Also, they highlight the potential for phyllosphere-based priming of bacteria to stimulate pollutant degradation, which holds promise for the application of phylloremediation.

Cheerleading. It’s a popular sport that comes with many connotations – some recall high school sporting events, where cheerleaders are in charge of pepping up the crowd.
Others think of the intense stunts carried out by competitive cheerleaders.
No matter what your own idea of cheerleading is, one can’t deny that it’s a display of grace and strength, sport and art, and spirit and skill.
There’s a lot more that goes into cheerleading beyond pompoms and pep.
Proper technique, equipment, practice, historical background, and understanding of similar sports all contribute to a good cheerleader.
So, Who Is a Cheerleader?
Anyone with the desire to cheerlead can cheerlead. Cheerleading is not limited to a specific age, gender, or body type.
Many will argue that your values, beliefs and the way you carry yourself contributes as much to being a good cheerleader as your physical skill.
There is emphasis on the word “lead” in cheerleading, meaning that cheerleaders should be prepared to act as representatives of the organization they are cheering for.
Cheerleading can start young and carries up through high school, college, and professional leagues.
Many children are able to start cheerleading through either competitive gym teams or recreational teams.
Competitive cheerleading, also known as all-star cheerleading, involves stricter training, performing more gymnastics and stunts, and attending competitions in which teams perform routines for judges.
Competitive cheerleading makes up national and international leagues and can have cheerleaders from young, elementary aged children to teenagers.
Recreational cheerleading typically takes place locally. Many recreational teams are sponsored in junction with recreational sports teams, meaning they share the same logos, mascots and spaces with recreational football, basketball, or soccer teams.
Often times, these teams will cheer on the sports teams they share their names with.
High school cheerleading focuses mainly on supporting school sports teams at home and away games.
These cheerleaders also typically perform stunts and routines during half time shows for the entertainment of the crowd.
High school cheerleaders usually perform the type of cheerleading most people think about when they think of the sport.
Their main goal is to get the crowd excited for the game while performing fun and exciting stunts.
High school cheerleading is often divided into two groups: varsity and junior varsity, or JV.
Varsity cheerleaders are typically older, have more cheerleading experience, and perform at varsity level sports games, such as varsity football and basketball.
JV cheerleaders are usually younger and perform at junior varsity sporting events.
College cheerleading is similar to high school cheerleading in that many college cheerleading squads are formed to perform at sporting events and games.
Depending on the size of the college or university, there may be multiple squads and teams to perform at different types of sporting events.
Many colleges and universities have official, university sanctioned teams that perform at games, as well as recreational or intermural teams that cheer solely for fun.
College cheerleading is also considered to be a more advanced level, meaning stunts and routines may be more difficult to perform.
There are also a large number of coed squads in college cheerleading, whereas high school cheerleading is largely made up of females.
On a historical note, organized cheerleading is actually rumored to have started in college. In 1877, Princeton University created its “Princeton Cheer” to chant at athletic games.
This cheer is still used today. The trend quickly spread around other universities until the University of Minnesota organized a six-member team to cheer at sporting events.
Eventually, the sport grew into what it is today.
Professional cheerleading is one of the most competitive facets of cheerleading.
There are very few professional cheerleading leagues around the world when compared to the number of school and community sponsored leagues.
Professional cheerleading also requires a lot of skill; professional cheerleaders must be masters in cheerleading, dance, and gymnastics.
Professionals often perform for football, basketball, baseball, and hockey teams.
In addition to performing for these teams, the professionals often act as team representatives, doing interviews, appearances, charity work, and more on the behalf of the sports team they cheer for.
What Does a Cheerleader Look Like?
While cheerleading can be done by any gender or body type, cheerleaders do have commonalities in their appearance in their uniforms, accessories, shoes, and general style while cheerleading.
Many gyms and teams have regulations regarding what cheerleaders can wear during practice and performances, typically based on guidelines by competitions, school rules, or national standards.
While there are slight variations among uniforms between teams, most follow the same general guidelines.
On top, cheerleaders wear a shell, or a sleeveless vest with the school or team logo, mascot, name or colors depicted on the front.
This shell can also be in the form of a halter top or a crop top, depending on the squad’s regulations.
Some teams require female cheerleaders to wear a sleeved, high neck liner underneath their shell for uniformity and modesty.
Regarding bottoms, female cheerleaders typically wear an A-line or pleated skirt that sits on the waistline and reaches the mid-thigh.
Underneath the skirt, female cheerleaders wear spandex briefs, also known as bloomers, lollies or bundies, to compensate for shorter skirt lengths.
Male cheerleaders will wear track pants of a similar style or color to the females’ skirts for uniformity.
Many cheerleaders will also wear their hair in matching styles. These styles often include matching bows that sport the team or school colors that they are representing.
If makeup is allowed, cheerleaders also often coordinate makeup looks to match their squad’s.
One could argue that a cheerleader’s shoes are the most important part of their uniform. When doing complex and dangerous stunts, proper footwear can mean the difference between injury and success.
While in the past, cheerleaders first wore saddle shoes before transitioning to canvas shoes, the cheerleaders of today wear athletic sneakers.
There are many important features that make up a cheerleading sneaker. They are very different from an average running shoe, and for good reason.
Cheerleading sneakers must be lightweight, have shock-absorbing padding, be made of an easy-to-clean material, be breathable, and have finger grips.
Many of these features contribute to the success of stunts. The finger grips, for example, allow for cheerleaders to safely grip onto the feet of flyers when they perform routines.
Many people hold the misconception that cheerleading is not a sport or an athletic activity at all.
While many people see cheerleading as a “soft” activity, there is actually a lot of training and skill that goes into it.
Cheerleading stunts and routines are a mix of dance, gymnastics, tumbling, and vocals that require hours of practice, high flexibility, and a lot of hand-eye coordination.
Like most sports, cheerleading squads have leadership that create routines, run practices and coach the team to improve.
These leadership roles can come in the form of a team captain, head cheerleader, coach, assistant coach, and more. Responsibilities are divided up differently depending on the squad.
Cheerleading practice is ideally hosted in a gym that is stocked with state-of-the-art equipment like new balance beams, popular tumbling mats, trampolines, landing mats, and more.
Cheerleading practice can also be held outside, depending on the squad’s location, availability, and climate.
For example, a high school cheerleading team may practice on the school’s football field to keep costs down while a professional cheerleading team may choose to invest in a gym to practice in.
Each squad or team requires different equipment, depending on their goal. Many all-star and competitive squads will practice in gyms with top gymnastic mats from brands like Tumbl Trak, Soozier or Polar Aurora.
Other gyms, especially those that house practices for multiple sports, may choose to supply their practice areas with mats for martial arts.
These mats are essential for cheerleading practice because they provide shock absorption if a cheerleader were to fall. It’s much better to fall on a mat than a wood or concrete floor.
Cheerleaders also use many tools and pieces of equipment typically used in gymnastics.
Trampolines can be incorporated into more complex routines or just used in practice to help with flips and stunts. Special mats called folding inclines also help cheerleaders train.
Younger cheer squads benefit from using different equipment than high school, college, or professional cheer squads.
Youth teams should invest in gymnastics equipment for kids in order to maintain proper training.
One of the most classic cheerleading stunts is building a pyramid, but the list does not stop there.
Stunts can be performed by the entire squad or in small groups; stunts usually involve a flyer, or a cheerleader who is lifted into the air during a stunt.
Stunts also involve bases, or people who stabilize the flyer, and a backspot and frontspot to call the stunts out and assist the bases in making sure the flyer does not fall.
Cheerleading cheers typically hold special value to the cheerleaders calling them out. They often use language that represents their school or team in a strong, positive light, and are created to inspire the crowd watching them.
Cheers are typically simple and easy to remember, often so the crowd can cheer along as well. They are rhythmic, accompanied by clapping or stomping, and rhyme or spell out key words.
At the end of the day, cheerleading is much more than what many people see it as. It is a dynamic, multi-level sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
Whether you’re a professional cheerleader for the Dallas Cowboys, or just starting out on a recreational youth team, anyone can be brought together by the spirit of cheerleading.

An update from Facebook, which allowed users to state whether they're happy for their organs to be donated in the event of their death, saw organ donor registration increase to 21 times the norm in one day.
Whenever you see anything on Facebook regarding organ donation, it's usually some petty chain status where "just 10000 likes will get little Timmy the bone marrow he so desperately needs". Well, in a break from convention, an update from Facebook which allowed users to state whether they're happy for their organs to be donated in the event of their death, saw organ donor registration increase to 21 times the norm in one day.
"If we can harness that excitement in the long term, then we can really start to move the needle on the big picture. The need for donor organs vastly outpaces the available supply and this could be a way to change that equation."
Let's hope all those registrations do eventually end up as organ donations. If you would like to register for Organ Donation, please do so at the NHS' official Organ Donation registration page.

The Los Angeles Clippers and Portland Trail Blazers were tied 87-87 with 2.8 seconds remaining in regulation and a shot clock that read 1.7 when center DeAndre Jordan made one of the biggest mishaps of 2015.
Then-Clippers guard Chris Paul missed his attempt to take the lead as the shot clock went off and Jordan rebounded with 0.7 seconds remaining, but he simply held onto it thinking the shot clock was the final buzzer.
The Clippers went on to lose 98-93 against the Trail Blazers in overtime while legend has it that Jordan is still holding onto that ball until this day.
Continuing the trend of end-of-regulation mistakes that preceded overtime losses is Derek Harper of the Dallas Mavericks in Game 4 of the 1984 NBA Western Conference semifinals against the Los Angeles Lakers.
With six seconds left in a tied game after a miss by Lakers’ center Kareem Abdul-Jabaar, Harper took the ball near halfcourt and dribbled until the clock read zero.
The Mavericks lost 122-115 in overtime and ultimately fell in the series against the Lakers in five games.
The blunders aren’t only limited to the NBA, as Chris Webber proved during his time with the “Fab Five” at the University of Michigan.
Weber and the Wolverines were called for a technical foul after he signaled for a timeout against North Carolina when the team didn’t have any left to burn in the 1993 NCAA championship game.
Weber was whistled after he was trapped in the corner by two Tar Heels with 11 seconds remaining in regulation and down by two. North Carolina won 77-71 and the Wolverines lost their second straight national championship game.
The Washington Wizards held a three-point advantage over the Toronto Raptors with three seconds remaining in a 2007 regular-season game and the ball in their hands – the only issue was it was being held by Michael Ruffin.
Ruffin caught a pass intended for a Toronto player and threw the ball in the air to milk the clock, but its airtime was pitiful and the Raptors’ Morris Peterson recovered it and swished a 3-pointer.
As what has grown to be expected with this list of basketball blunders, the Wizards then lost in overtime in front of a stunned Washington crowd.
If it’s any consolation to Smith, Hall of Famers have made mishaps similar to his own in the NBA Finals.
Magic Johnson ran out the clock during Game 2 of the NBA Finals between the Boston Celtics and his Los Angeles Lakers. The game was tied with 13 seconds left, but Johnson dribbled camly and passed the ball to a teammate as time expired.
The Lakers lost in overtime 124-121 and fell to the Celtics in the seven-game series.
The NBA has rescinded technical fouls called on Golden State's Kevin Durant and JaMychal Green of the Clippers in Game 3 of their first-round playoff series.

It's easy to sit back in New York, London, or Paris, where no one is shooting at you, and complain that US and British forces could have done more to prevent the deplorable looting of the Iraqi National Museum and other cultural treasures.
In hindsight, the coalition was unprepared for the sudden collapse of authority in Baghdad. US forces on hand were insufficient to guard all vulnerable locations in the city. They fought a three-day battle with regime fighters next to the National Museum while looters were pillaging it.
The picture of what actually happened at the museum remains murky. One thing is clear: Hussein's regime itself was looting it and other cultural sites all through the 1990s. Many of the more-recent thefts may have been the work of professionals - maybe even an inside job by someone who had the keys. Thieves stole precious originals, like the Harp of Ur and the Vase of Uruk, leaving replicas behind.
But it's time to focus on recovery, not blame. The status of items museum staff hid away before the war must be clarified. FBI and military investigators in Baghdad are trying to piece together what happened. The US is offering rewards, and Iraqis are returning looted items at an increasing rate. Police around the world are on the lookout.
The British Museum and UNESCO Tuesday organized a London meeting to draft a recovery plan. The world must quickly help Iraqis financially and materially to reassemble the fragments of their shattered cultural past.

text: We propose in this work a deterministic continuous approach for constructing highly nonlinear balanced Boolean functions, which is an interesting and open question in Cryptography. Our approach is based on DC (Difference of Convex functions) programming and DCA (DC optimization Algorithms). We first formulate the problem in the form of a combinatorial optimization problem, more precisely a mixed 0–1 linear program. By using exact penalty technique in DC programming, this problem is reformulated as polyhedral DC program. We next investigate DC programming and DCA for solving this latter problem. Preliminary numerical results show that the proposed algorithm is promising and more efficient than somes heuristic algorithms.

Will Mazda build a world car?
We have had nothing but world cars for decades. Actually, we could not afford to have anything but one car for the world.
Will Mazda use the new Ford Focus platform for the next 323?
The new 323 platform is only one year old. It is as good as the Ford Focus platform.
There is no reason to change over. When we have reached agreement with Ford on the platform cycle plan for the next 10 years or so we might share platforms.
Its special appearance and distinctive footprint. It is something like a DNA print in a human being - something only this brand has.
We have to guard this carefully from inception of the car until the day we take it to the market. Even after we start to share platforms with Ford we will have a distinctly different appearance.
How will you merge your cycle plan with Ford?
Of course we want to have a full range of cars but there are always sectors in which we are better, especially in the compact sector.
The main task now is to have a vehicle aimed at the middle of this compact car segment. It must be very distinctive to achieve profitable volume and growth.
Does Mazda need a plant in Europe?
We are only using 75 percent of our Japanese capacity, which might rise to 80 or 85 percent this year. So we do not need any more.
But our three design and development centers in Japan, California and near Frankfurt will be kept.
They help us understand the needs of the different regions.
Where does your production go?
Some 30 to 40 percent of production should be sold in Japan itself. We export 570,000 cars.
Some 230,000 should be sold in Europe this year. Sales there should improve now that the full line up of the 626 is available. Around 235,000 vehicles should be sold in the USA and 50,000 to 60,000 in various other markets.


text: It is noteworthy that Confucius and Buddha were almost exact contemporaries, Buddha being some 15 years older and dying perhaps one year before Confucius. But there the similarity ends, for Buddha, meditating under the bodhi tree, essentially established a new religion of enlightenment. Confucius, however, held fast to the ancient religious practices. He aimed at making not simply the man of virtue but the man of learning and good manners. The perfect man in his view must combine the qualities of saint, scholar and gentleman. The name Confucius is the Latinized form of the Chinese characters, K'ung Foo-tsze, meaning "the master K'ung." Confucius was born in 551 BC of an ancient family in what is now the province of Shantung. After a series of appointments to public position by the ruling dynasty he inexplicably fell into disfavor. Until his death in 479 or 478 he was a wandering scholar. No sooner had he died, however, than his wisdom was celebrated by peasant and emperor alike. Admiration rose to veneration and veneration to worship. Sacrifices were offered to him, temples built in his honor and a cult established which has lasted more than 2000 years. Asian scholor James Legge says that the Lun Yu, Analects or Sayings of Confucius, were probably compiled about the beginning of the the third or the end of the fourth century before Christ by the disciples of the disciples of the sage, making free use of the memorials concerning him which they had received from their masters.

Every schoolgirl in Bristol is to be provided with free sanitary products so that no more girls have to miss school because of their menstrual cycle.
Some schoolgirls are missing out on their education. Not because of intentional exclusion or rampant sexism within the school walls, but because they don't have access to pads and tampons.
In a bid to end so-called period poverty and ensure pupils don't miss out on their education during periods, every schoolgirl in Bristol is to be provided with free sanitary products, its council pledged.
Period poverty was uncovered in the UK last year, when a school teacher in Leeds reported that girls were missing school whilst menstruating due to being unable to afford tampons and pads.
Bristol follows the lead of Scotland, where schoolgirls and university students can already access free menstrual products.
It's shocking that these very necessary items aren't available to all. Let's hope the rest of the nation, as well as countries in Europe, do the same.
Bristol City Council pledged to provide schoolgirls with free sanitary products to put a stop to period poverty.
The city council's cabinet also agreed to hold a summit next month to encourage local businesses, charities and trade unions to do the same.
Research by children's charity Plan UK found that girls across the UK are missing school whilst on their periods. Women on low incomes are also sometimes being forced to choose between food or tampons.
Bristol Councillor Helen Godwin, who lobbied for the motion, said: "This issue simply shouldn't belong in 2018 and it is a travesty that we need to tackle period poverty in our city. Too many of our girls and women are unable to afford or access sanitary protection during their period."
In Scotland in July 2017, the government started giving out free menstrual products to 1,000 girls from low-income families in Aberdeen.
Nottingham City Council has also pledged to provide free sanitary products to schoolgirls.
