A supporter holds a placard as U.S. President Donald Trump speaks during a rally at El Paso County Coliseum in El Paso, Texas, Feb. 11, 2019.
With another possible government shutdown looming, and illegal immigration still at the heart of the budget dispute, Trump is pulling out the stops to portray his proposed wall as essential to public safety, including stemming crime. As he's done repeatedly, Trump also defied the record in claiming that the wall that Congress has refused to pay for is rapidly coming together anyway.
TRUMP, on the effect of a border wall on crime: "When that wall went up, it's a whole different ball game. ... I don't care whether a mayor is a Republican or a Democrat. They're full of crap when they say it hasn't made a big difference. I heard the same thing from the fake news. They said, 'Oh crime, it actually stayed the same.' It didn't stay the same. It went way down. ... Thanks to a powerful border wall in El Paso, Texas, it's one of America's safest cities now."
THE FACTS: There's less going on here than his words convey. Construction is getting started on merely 14 miles (23 kilometers) of extended barrier, approved by Congress about a year ago in an appropriation that also authorized money to renovate and strengthen some existing fencing. The extension will be in Texas' Rio Grande Valley. That's not a "big, big portion" of the grand project he promised in his campaign and countless times since — a wall that, combined with existing fencing and natural barriers, would seal the nearly 2,000-mile (3,200-kilometer) border with Mexico.
TRUMP: "We're going to El Paso. ... We're going there to keep our country safe, and we don't want murderers and drug dealers and gang members, MS-13, and some of the worst people in the world coming into our country. ... We need a wall."
The authors acknowledged that it's possible that people who came illegally are less likely to report a crime. But the authors also note that such immigrants overwhelmingly arrived to work, a trend that helps reduce crime levels.

Mickey and I went to the game tonight. (The kids stayed the night at Grandma & Grandpa's house. Thank you!) This is the first night game in a long time and it was against a big rival, USC. ND had on their new helmets. We couldn't decide if we liked them or not. They were a little blinding under the lights. They looked a little like bling. What do you think? Maybe they were trying to blind their opponents? I don't think it worked.
This was not a good game to attend but I'm glad it was me that went instead of one of the kids. I'm not saying that because ND couldn't pull out a win but because of the vulgar and rude mouths sitting all around us. Come on people it's just a game not a life and death situation. Not enjoyable at all. I'm glad I stayed warm (thanks to Amy for letting me wear some of her cold weather clothes) or I would have been totally miserable.

Defines Standard Template Library (STL) functions that help construct function objects, also known as functors, and their binders. A function object is an object of a type that defines operator(). A function object can be a function pointer, but more typically, the object is used to store additional information that can be accessed during a function call.
For a list of all members of this header, see <functional> Members.
Algorithms require two types of function objects: unary and binary. Unary function objects require one argument, and binary function objects require two arguments. A function object and function pointers can be passed as a predicate to an algorithm, but function objects are also adaptable and increase the scope, flexibility, and efficiency of the STL. If, for example, a value needed to be bound to a function before being passed to an algorithm, then a function pointer could not be used. Function adaptors convert function pointers into adaptable function objects that can be bound to a value. The header <functional> also contains member function adaptors that allow member functions to be called as adaptable function objects. Functions are adaptable if they have nested type declarations specifying their argument and return types. The C++ Standard requires that this adaptability is implemented by having all standard object classes inherit from the unary_function or binary_function base classes. Function objects and their adaptors allow the STL to upgrade existing applications and help integrate the STL into the C++ programming environment.
A call signature is the name of a return type followed by a parenthesized comma-separated list of zero or more argument types.
A callable type is a pointer to function, a pointer to member function, a pointer to member data, or a class type whose objects can appear immediately to the left of a function call operator.
A target object is the callable object held by a call wrapper object.
(t1.*f)(t2, ..., tN) when f is a pointer to member function of class T and t1 is an object of type T or a reference to an object of type T or a reference to an object of a type derived from T.
((*t1).*f)(t2, ..., tN) when f is a pointer to member function of class T and t1 is not one of the types described in the previous item.
t1.*f when f is a pointer to member data of class T and t1 is an object of type T or a reference to an object of type T or a reference to an object of a type derived from T.
(*t1).*f when f is a pointer to member data of class class T and t1 is not one of the types described in the previous item.
The pseudo-function INVOKE(f, t1, t2, ..., tN, R) means INVOKE(f, t1, t2, ..., tN) implicitly converted to R.
If T is a pointer to function, result_type is a synonym for the return type of T.
If T is a pointer to member function, result_type is a synonym for the return type of T.
If T is a pointer to data member, result_type is a synonym for the declared type of the data member.
If T is a class type that has a member type result_type, then result_type is a synonym for T::result_type.
Otherwise, there is no member result_type.
Every call wrapper has a copy constructor. A simple call wrapper is a call wrapper that has an assignment operator and whose copy constructor and assignment operator do not throw exceptions. A forwarding call wrapper is a call wrapper that can be called by using an argument list t1, t2, ..., tN, where each ti is an lvalue.
The call wrappers defined in this header support function call operators that have arguments of types T1, T2, ..., TN, where 0 <= N <= NMAX. In this implementation, the value of NMAX is 10.

GF Machining Solutions has supplied Renault F1 Team with two bespoke five-axis machining centres for the accurate and safe machining of epoxy resin patterns, carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) parts and Rohacell foam core components.
To cope with the different demands of machining composite materials, both machines were significantly modified and supplied with integrated, high-efficiency extraction systems, as well as fully enclosed and sealed working areas. The machine modifications were implemented seamlessly as part of the long-standing technical partnership agreement that exists between the two companies.
The two Mikron HPM 1350U machines have been installed at Renault F1 Team’s manufacturing facility in Enstone, Oxfordshire, within the team’s expanding Composites Department. Both machines were acquired, initially, to machine high-precision patterns (made from epoxy resin tooling board), which are used to make moulds for CFRP body parts.
However, owing to the machines’ versatility and performance attributes, the HPM 1350Us are also being used (now) to machine carbon inserts, and Rohacell foam (used as a structural filler to strengthen CFRP parts), as well as a range of jigs and fixtures.
The decision to invest in the two Mikron HPM 1350U machines was made as a direct result of accuracy issues being experienced in Renault F1 Team’s Composites Department, and the inability of existing equipment to meet increasingly stringent part precision requirements.
Explains Renault F1 Team’s composites manager Keith Dunsby: “We are committed to continuous improvement and striving for excellence. So, when it became apparent to us in 2016 that two of our machines were not able to meet the accuracy and repeatability requirements demanded by our design engineers, we acted quickly to rectify the situation.
The working envelope of the HPM 1350U machines (1350 x 1150 x 700 mm) enables Renault F1 Team to machine a majority (up to 60%) of these parts. For larger components, like the car chassis itself or a rear crash structure, Renault F1 Team relies on big gantry-type machines with a 4 x 3 m working area.
Renault F1 Team has a long-established technical partnership agreement with GF Machining Solutions. The partnership has been instrumental in Renault F1 Team investing, over recent years, in a number of AgieCharmilles wire and die-sink EDM machines, and Mikron five-axis machining centres. To address the accuracy issues being experienced in the Composites Department it was therefore natural that Renault F1 Team first approached GF Machining Solutions.
on the table of the machines.
The modifications to the HPM 1350U machines also included the removal of the swarf conveyors, enclosing the Y-axes and providing additional guarding to prevent dust ingress and escape. A final modification on both machines was the inclusion and integration of the more advanced Renishaw RMP600 – a compact workpiece probing system featuring radio signal transmission which, working in conjunction with Renault F1 Team’s MSP software, ensures improved process reliability, faster and more accurate set-ups, and reduced scrap.

Japanese Grand Prix, Friday 5th October 2018. Suzuka, Japan.
The HPM 1350U machines’ arrival has enabled the Composites Department to improve its own productivity, as well as having a direct and positive impact on Renault F1 Team’s performance. The team finished fourth in the 2018 season’s Constructors’ Championship – two places higher than in 2017.
“Our HPM 1350U machines are reliable high-performance machines,” concludes Dunsby. “They are equipped with high-torque spindles that enable us to ramp-up feed rates and achieve big depths of cut which, as a result, have helped us improve our productivity levels, reduce part cycle times and meet tight lead times.

Thanks to some industrious students at Bath Spa University in the UK in collaboration with Pilgrims Choice cheeses, Lady Gaga can now wear a steak 'n' cheese dress.

Dissatisfied with the informality of khakis, I adopted a personal uniform of exclusively white turtlenecks, grey flannel trousers, and black & white spectator shoes. I look back on it now as a dedicated engagement with minimalism (and self-caricature). Occasionally on weekends at home I would pretend to be a pharaoh with amulet and scepter.

Charter Communications, the fourth largest cable operator in the U.S., is putting its faith in a cloud user interface where the UI â€˜pageâ€™ representation demanded by a consumer (e.g. the linear programme listing, or the cover art and title description within VOD store, etc.) is â€˜stitched togetherâ€™ and rendered using compute power in a datacenter, then encoded into an MPEG stream and delivered to a set-top as if it was a television channel. It means that all set-top boxes on the Charter network can display the operatorâ€™s new advanced user interface and programme guide rather than just the new generation of Worldbox gateways and clients that the operator announced at CES 2015. All a set-top box requires is a tuner and decoder, so as Charter explained in Las Vegas, the processing power on the STB becomes irrelevant in terms of UI delivery.
Charter is using ActiveVideo technology for the cloud UI and to demonstrate how the new â€˜Spectrum Guideâ€™ user interface can be used with legacy devices, the company gave a demonstration with the guide running on the new Worldbox alongside a six-year-old and 11-year-old set-top box from its network. These boxes may be old â€œbut they are still capable devicesâ€, the operator declared, and Charter has avoided the need to choose between swapping out set-top boxes or limiting its advanced UI to a subset of its customer base at a time when Pay TV operators are under pressure to improve the user experience, due to competition from CE devices and online services. You get the same look-and-feel on each device. Spectrum Guide includes intuitive search and discovery capabilities and attractive graphics including, among other things, TV and movie poster art. The UI could also be customized for each user.
Charter outlined the benefits of the cloud UI as part of a wider look at the Worldbox platform, which is being described as a â€œbreakthrough next-generation video solutionâ€, and a â€œcloud-based video solution.” Cisco is the other key vendor the cable operator cited; the company will supply a substantial share of the volume of â€˜Worldbox’ devices and Charter is also using Cisco’s cloud-based content security suite, which includes downloadable security solution (DCAS) for set-top boxes and a seamless digital rights management (DRM) solution to support video services on a range of IP devices. Cisco will continue to supply CableCARD boxes until Charter migrates all current and acquired systems to the downloadable security solution.
The downloadable security solution uses an open approach to enable porting to customer premise equipment (CPE) from different vendors. It interoperates with proprietary CA implementations that are in-situ and so enables an efficient roll-out across an entire cable operator footprint including different video network architectures. Charter expects to deploy downloadable security to its current systems this year and then expand the approach to acquired systems. Downloadable security opens the door to new CPE vendors to work with Charter as well as its existing suppliers. â€œCharter is currently working with vendors towards manufacturing compatible boxes for the retail market as well, with the expectation that these devices will function in other cable systems using downloadable security solution,â€ the cable operator said in a statement.

The service is an expanding quandary for several organisations. Initial released in January 2009, as well as part of the Facebook property team because a near-$ 20 billion procurement back in early 2014, WhatsApp currently shows off one billion individuals using the solution each day. That appears a little high-- over 10% of the planet using the exact same application each day?-- but it's clear that the userbase is very high, and also very linked to it.
It's additionally clear that there are problems-- problems WhatsApp's aiming to reply to. Therefore, it announced back in September that it's developing devices for organisation, particularly a variation of the application for local business, as well as a larger, business remedy. This is set to bring in the similarity a confirmed profile-- a la Facebook and twitter-- and "a much easier way to respond to messages".
In its statement of business solutions, WhatsApp teased functions such as allowing services to update customers with notifications over the likes of delivery verifications and trip times. The detail is missing out on currently, yet WhatsApp is carrying out a shut pilot plan (that you could apply for here), as well as more details are anticipated in 2018.
Few services supply the user-friendly feeling of a great WhatsApp team and also few solutions are as footprint-light on modern technology as well. The difficulty for the firm is to find a means to harness that, in a way that makes the self-confidence of industry. Not that big business isn't paying attention: organisations have long found the inefficiency of plain e-mail to keep workers up to date. Larger companies are resorting to the likes of Slack instead, to centralise interactions. That's the kind of service that keeps an already-stretched IT division entailed, yet successfully contracts out the core of the procedure. Somewhere, on a Powerpoint discussion, there's a procedures director that's written words like 'synergy' and 'efficiency'.
The exact same variables of WhatsApp's layout that secure its users likewise make it tough or difficult to research many elements of communication on the system. Also as unscientific evidence piles up that WhatsApp is being utilized to distribute fake news, after that, it remains difficult to understand simply exactly what is occurring or just what can be performed in reaction.
The differences between WhatsApp and also Facebook dictate the means individuals share news on each system. "Facebook is a social system where individuals express their concerns, react, and also develop understandings based on an individual's blog posts," states Anoop Mishra, an electronic advertising and marketing and social media sites expert. "Nonetheless, on WhatsApp, which is an end-to-end messaging platform, individuals share content in a more personal as well as closed way.".
It is due to the fact that the main setting of sharing on instant messaging apps is one-to-one, as opposed to the one-to-many partnership on Facebook, that the former feels more individual. This individual top quality of most of the content shared straight or on tiny teams by means of WhatsApp lugs with it the implied endorsement of individuals you know. Considered that the app is now a large as well as expanding part of people's lives on smart phones, the means it influences information intake demands more attention. "Lack of web content moderation and privacy controls gives WhatsApp an edge over Facebook for sharing any sort of multimedia material.".
Yet that is utilizing which messaging apps in Southeast Asia? We have a look at the apps succeeding in the area.
Southeast Asia loves Facebook. The social networking platform has close to 306 million users in the region. Normally, when the firm pulled the plug on incorporated messaging within the initial app as well as required individuals to download and install a separate Messenger application, it met some resistance. Yet that did not stop the Carrier application from rising to the top rankings on application shops.
Today, Facebook Carrier is utilized commonly in the area. It places as the favorite messaging app in the Philippines, with a remarkable 94 percent of IM individuals choosing Facebook Carrier over other platforms. In Cambodia as well, Facebook Carrier leads the charge with 20 percent reach. It continues to be one of Malaysia's most preferred apps, with a consistent leading three ranking on the Apple Application Shop as well as the Google Play Shop. In Thailand, Facebook Messenger is the 2nd most extensively made use of messaging app, which is barely a shock because Bangkok-- the home of 8.2 million residents, less compared to half of New Delhi-- has the world's highest number of Facebook individuals!
Nonetheless, at some point, it could not keep up with WhatsApp, with BBM's newest worldwide user volumes being one-tenth that of WhatsApp. However it has remained Indonesia's favourite messaging application, with over 90 percent of the nation's 72.5 million IM individuals still active on BBM. Late in 2014, the business partnered with Bukalapak, a native online market, to power electronic deals. It likewise permits functions like costs settlement, in-app vouchers, and brand communication opportunities.

He worked there for three years and only received a raise of $0.25, and that due to his going on a strike. During the strike his store owner came down from a baseball game to ask why he went on strike.
The manager asked if he was going to go on strike again. He responded that until the working conditions and treatment improves he will keep going on strike because "we deserve more" and "we're worth more."
He calls attention to the fact that people who work fast food are working every day to provide for their families. One of his friends has four jobs and rarely sees his children. He notes that workers need to advocate for themselves and fight for fair working conditions and pay.
Darius notes that "this is a community that needs it [a better economy], this is a community that deserves it, this is a world that deserves it." He advocates for a better working economy that serve the workers and that we can all be proud of.
He shows how through his work he has found an apartment and thought he could make a living through hard work. However, his job started cutting his hours from 40 hours a week eventually down to 10 or 15 hours a week. Due to these hour cuts he lost his apartment and way of living. He ends by sharing that the one thing they can't take is his faith.

Crash Club - Drive & Smash Live - Prettygreat Pty. Ltd.
Crash Club is a car derby game set in a city environment. Fine motor skills and quick reaction time needed to play. Caution: not suitable for children under 13 due to gambling elements and social media connectivity. Parental guidance for children 13 – 15.
This review of Crash Club - Drive & Smash Live was completed by the Australian Council on Children and the Media (ACCM) on 23 July 2017.
Developed by: Prettygreat Pty. Ltd.
ACCM suggested age: Not suitable for children under 13. Parental guidance for children 13 – 15.
In this game, players must survive as long as they can whilst driving around a city with other multiple players. This is achieved by attacking other players with weaponry (attached to the top of the vehicle) and avoiding other players that are attempting to destroy you. Various currencies can be earned during the course of the game including Tokens (which can be used to repair your vehicle and attach weapons), Gems (which can be used to unlock further features such as new vehicles and upgrades for current vehicles) and coins which can also be used to unlock upgrades such as decals and wheels. The aim of the game is to survive as long as possible and to gain the highest standing on the current player leader board.
Driving is achieved by swiping left and right, whilst the vehicle moves forward automatically. Swiping backward stops the vehicle and swiping forward activates the turbo function for a short period of time (if you currently have the turbo function). These movements aren’t always easy to execute, especially when trying to drive between close buildings and turning in a tight circles – thus fine motor skills will be required. Also, fast reaction time will be a beneficial skill to get away from sudden attacks – which often occur from outside of the player’s current view of the playing field.
As indicated above, game-play can be quite frustrating at times – particularly with manoeuvring the vehicle and being attacked from outside of you current field of vision. Survival in this game is very dependent on currency – as tokens are needed for weapons and repairs, but these are not always readily available within the game and can only be found by crashing into random objects (such as tress and bus stops, etc.).
At the end of each game, the app offers players to double, triple and quadruple the coins that they earned by watching ads. These ads mostly featured war style games and sometimes feature gambling. The most concerning feature however, is the free spin offered every 6 hours. This emphasises risk for reward as the player has a choice between taking an initial offer of 2 gems – or spinning the wheel at a chance for something better. Whilst it would appear that worse and better prizes were equally distributed on the wheel, the reviewer only spun 1 prize that was better than the original offer of 2 gems (in a series of about 10 spins). This type of feature is not suitable for children under 13, and it is suggested that parents exercise guidance for older children.
VIP access (60% discount on all cars) - $8.49 per month.
This game features risk for reward elements by spinning a wheel to see if you obtain a greater prize than the original offer. There are also ads featuring gambling game apps.
Watching ads earns coins. Ads often feature war style games and some feature gambling elements.

Huddersfield could secure their fourth straight league win with victory over winless Sale.
Both clubs enter this weekend’s fixture in contrasting form, with Huddersfield buoyant after securing three convincing victories in their opening League fixtures. Sale have disappointingly lost their first three matches of the league campaign, with their last two losses coming to a combined 11 points.
If Huddersfield win the fixture and secure their fourth league victory, it will equal the clubs best winning run in the past three seasons and could push them to top of the league table.
The team will feature several changes from the previous fixture against Burnage. Winger Ben Mithcell is replaced by Jack Moon who returns from Injury to take his place in the side. After coming on as a replacement and scoring two tries against Burnage , Adam Sutcliffe replaces Howard Hanks on the other wing. Will Brian is called up to the first team squad for the first time after several strong displays for the Falcons.
There could yet be another change to substitute’s bench with George Hinchcliffe on standby to replace Gareth Lewis. Lewis is on standby himself as he awaits the imminent arrival of his second child, which could see him whisked away from the match day squad.
The match is a 3pm kick off at Lockwood and (like all season) admission for minors is free. Huddersfield Falcons are also in action this weekend as they travel to Selby, the match is also a 3pm Kick off.

Over 600 abandoned Cats and Kittens benefit from Best Friends Pet SuperCentre “Think Adoption First” program.
“Think Adoption First” – is the motto of Best Friends Pet SuperCentre and a belief that The Lost Dogs’ Home has worked hard to promote for nearly 100 years.
For the past 20 months Best Friends Pet SuperCentre has been working with The Lost Dogs’ Home, as a valued partner, helping to rehome more unclaimed and unwanted kittens and cats.
Since launching the “Think Adoption First” program in association with The Lost Dogs’ Home, Best Friends Pet SuperCentre have rehomed over 600 kittens and cats to loving families, doubling the adoption rate of abandoned kittens at the Home.
Best Friends Pet SuperCentre has four stores now open in Victoria, which in turn means the Home also has four more cat adoption centres in Melbourne and Geelong.
Adopted recently from the Best Friends Pet SuperCentre Maribyrnong was a lovely tabby kitten Bob.
Greg and Rose Gow often visit the Maribyrnong Best Friends with their kids to look at the animals such as the Home’s cats and perhaps buy a few treats for their Jack Russell Cody.
However on this occasion the Gows found themselves enamored with the little tabby kitten playing in the enclosure and could not leave him behind. When Greg and Rose told their kids they could adopt Bob, they were beside themselves.
Bob has since settled in well with the Gow family, though he still has to win over Cody the dog who remains cautious of the playful Bob. But the rest of the family couldn’t be happier: they all love Bob to bits and he has provided a distraction from the Nintendo Wii!
If you are considering adopting a kitten or cat and can’t make it into The Lost Dogs’ Home, perhaps a Best Friends Pet SuperCentre is more convenient for you. They have stores located in Geelong, Maribyrnong, Thomastown and Point Cook. For further information visit http://www.bestfriendspets.com.au.
All kittens and cats are desexed, vaccinated, wormed and microchipped and health assessed. Adoption costs are the same as The Lost Dogs’ Home, kittens are $130 and cats are $90. Best Friends Pet SuperCentre do not profit from the adoption of kittens and cats in their stores.

Deedee Lynn Magno and Cliffton Hall, who will both appear in "Hello Broadway" Saturday at Blaisdell, are planning to get married in Honolulu in April. The pair costarred in "Miss Saigon" last year. "Being on tour is being separated from loved ones and families," said Hall. "No more."
They met a while back, but co-starring roles in "Miss Saigon" last year  and spending a lot of time together  cinched it.
Deedee Lynn Magno, who played Kim, and Cliffton Hall, who was Chris the American GI, are an "item."
Their backstage story, laced with theatrical memories and challenges, is that they're getting married in Honolulu in April. On stage, they will be part of the cast of "Hello Broadway" Saturday at Blaisdell Concert Hall, singing tunes from "Miss Saigon," "Les Miserables," "Phantom of the Opera" and other shows.
"We're planning to be there a month before the wedding, and if we get a contract (to work), we'll just have to ask for time off," said Magno.
"It has to be in Hawai'i," said Hall, who has family and friends here.
Magno and Hall, both 27, are musical theater troupers and Asian American. They're married to their careers, but finding performing jobs is difficult, particularly because race often is a factor.
They first met in 1995, got to be good friends by 1999, when Magno was performing the pivotal role of Kim in the Tony Award-winning "Miss Saigon."
"We knew we would be lifetime friends, but we parted ways to do separate projects," said Hall. "When she was on Broadway and I wasn't, I'd phone, write letters. We were always talking to each other, going to movies together. We decided to take it a step further."
So they got engaged. In Central Park, no less, last January.
"Being apart means making sacrifices," Magno said. "Now, we have each other."
"Being on tour is being separated from loved ones and families," said Hall. "No more."
They were speaking in a conference call from Los Angeles, one of two homes for Hall.
"I still have my apartment in New York, sharing it with Robert Orosco (a fellow alum, like Hall, of the Castle Performing Arts Center at Castle High School). He's holding forth in the apartment there. I moved out here last February to try to break into films and TV. It's been kinda hard; I have a lot of musical theater credits on my resume. Hollywood likes young and beautiful, and at 27, I'm an old man. But I do workshops here and there, auditioning for stuff, hoping to break the ice."
For the record, he's part Japanese and Filipino (his mother is Japanese, Filipino and Spanish), so he qualifies as being an Asian-American actor. And he's hapa (his dad is French, Irish, German and Dutch).
Magno is Filipino and a child star, at 12, when she was a Mouseketeer on "The All New Mickey Mouse Club," and always found theatrical and TV jobs. Only recently has she encountered the hardship of being Asian and the frustration of losing roles because of race.
"There are few parts for Asians," she said. "But there are lots of talented Asians in this industry.
"You can't wait for change to happen," said Magno, who has played Kim the longest on Broadway. "You have to make the changes. You have to write projects that focus on Asians so Asians can be cast. It's exactly what Welly's been doing, creating new projects to focus on available Asian talent."
Welly is Welly Yang, who also starred as Thuy in "Miss Saigon." He has started to create, through his Second Generation organization, his own destiny by mounting shows specifically to give fellow Asians gainful employment. One such show was "The Superfriends of Flushing, Queens," in which Magno participated.
"When I started on Broadway, he was on the way out and I was on my way in, but through mutual friends, he eventually contacted me," Magno said of Yang. "We've since done some shows together and have become good friends, sharing in the mission to raise awareness about the plight of Asian actors."
But, said Magno, she has been consistently working since she was 13, and race was seldom an issue. "There was a rainbow of colors on the Mickey Mouse Club, and it was almost like a 'Saturday Night Live' with kids. When I was part of The Party, a singing group created by Disney, it was like a Benetton ad  very interracial. Only recently have I encountered some challenges."
Hall grew up in an environment in Hawai'i where Asians routinely play a variety of roles.
"Hawai'i was always color blind; you were cast on the basis of talent, not how you looked," he said.
While he yearns for a film opportunity, Hall said, live theater and the instant audience endorsement remains a thrill. "It's pretty joyful when people respond to what you're doing; the neatest thing is that instant gratification. Live theater is like 3-D in that respect."
Magno said there are distinct differences between being on stage and before a camera. "My job on stage is really to get the audience on stage with me, instead of me putting myself into the audience," she said. "In films, every movement you have on your face can be seen; it's not like that on stage. You still have to reach the audience, so ultimately, the technique is the same  with a difference."

High fantasy for young adults.
The Eragon books offer the enchantment of an alternative world fully entered.
What did Tolkien do to this stale stuff to make it so potent? Another British don, Christopher Ricks, once dismissed Tolkien as “our Ossian,” referring to a third-century Irish bard, supposed to be the author of “Fingal” and other Gaelic epics, and wildly popular in the eighteenth century, whose works were actually written by his supposed “translator,” James Macpherson. Dr. Johnson knew it was a fraud, and when asked if any modern man could possibly have written such poetry replied, “Many men, many women, and many children.” Ricks meant the comparison to Ossian as a putdown—that there is something fraudulent and faddish about Tolkien’s ginned-up medievalism.
But the remark helps bring out Tolkien’s real achievement. When you actually read the Ossian epics, you find that they are shaped entirely to neoclassical tastes. The work is heavily Homeric, remote and noble, full of gloomy gray seas and doomy gray mountains, and ribboned with bardlike epithets. “The Lord of the Rings,” by contrast, begins in lovable local detail, birthday parties and fireworks and family squabbles. Tolkien’s early works—“The Silmarillion” and “The Children of Húrin,” published only after his death—are devoid of Hobbits and humors and pipe-smoking wizards; they really are like Ossian, and as dull as dishwater in consequence. Even if, as Johnson thought, a child could have written Ossian, children were never meant to read it. There’s no bright foreground to the story.
To see the road not taken, one need only think of that parallel fantasy masterpiece, written in exactly the same decades, and on a similar scale, by a similarly eccentric Englishman: T. H. White’s four-volume retelling of the story of King Arthur and his court, “The Once and Future King.” White, too, modernizes and sweetens his epic story, but he more overtly moralizes it, and he makes it emotionally ambiguous as well: What is right? Who gets to decide? Does duty come before passion? White worries about ambiguity and halftones: the impotence of the idealist King; the beauty and doom of the adulterous lovers; the capacity of good law to make bad judgments—it is Arthur, not Mordred, who has to sentence Guenevere to death. Where White’s literary task was to study the fate of epic ideals in a recognizably real world, Tolkien’s was to find a way to create the illusion of the real world in an idealized epic one. But though “The Once and Future King” inspired the musical “Camelot,” our new Arthurian romances are likely to be given a Tolkienesque treatment, focussing on clashes between armies, not within souls.
If Tolkien was, as Ricks insists, in any sense our Ossian, then perhaps Christopher Paolini is our Chatterton—the early Romantics’ “marvellous boy,” who, inspired by Ossian, made up his own set of pseudo-medieval poems, attributing them to a poet named Rowley, and claiming that his father found them in a chest. One difference is that Chatterton paid for his poetry with his life, while Paolini gets paid for life. Paolini was only eighteen when the first volume of his Eragon series, the tale of the dragon rider Eragon, was privately published, in 2001. The book and its sequels were quickly taken up by a mainstream publisher, and the series is now a genuine sensation. The final installment, out just a few weeks, has had a first printing of more than two million copies.
It is no insult to young Paolini to say that his books are effectively co-written with Tolkien, any more than it is an insult to Chatterton-Rowley to say that his had a co-author in Macpherson-Ossian—or, for that matter, that virtually all medieval-minded historical novels in the nineteenth century, including some very good ones, were produced jointly with Sir Walter Scott. Big writers become a kind of shared climate. Still, it is a little startling to see how almost entirely the mythology and the machinery of the Eragon series derive from “The Lord of the Rings.” Paolini’s elves, long-boned, graceful, and living in trees, as poetic as they are dangerous, are Tolkien’s elves; his dwarfs, short and bearded and brave, though slightly comic, are Tolkien’s dwarfs; his dark lord, Galbatorix, “cruel ruler of the Empire,” is a variant of Sauron (overlaid with bits of the galactic emperor from “Star Wars”); and his mortal hero is, of course, just one vowel (and a consonant) away from Tolkien’s mortal hero, Aragorn. Indeed, all Tolkien’s phonetics are absorbed into Paolini’s work: vowels are good, especially “E” and “A”; harsh starting consonants are suspicious, especially “K”; and though Paolini substitutes “X”s and “Z”s for Tolkien’s evil sibilant “S”s, they both practice guilt by phoneme.
“It was a pleasure meeting you, Maud,” said Eragon.
“Yes?” She drew the word out, her voice rising and falling with a faint lilt.
“What do you want to do once this is all over?” If we’re still alive, that is.
Books win their audiences for a reason. Most popular books wear their artlessness on their sleeve: Stephenie Meyer, the author of the “Twilight” series, is an awkward writer with little feeling for construction, but the intensity of emotion with which she imbues her characters is enviable. You never doubt her commitment to the material, which is half the battle won. So to say that Paolini is an unskilled narrator and a derivative mythmaker is more or less beside the point. What is it, then, that makes the books enter kids’ consciousness?
First, kids experience them as mythologies more than as stories—the narrative sweep is, curiously, the least significant part of their appeal. When kids talk about movies, it’s usually the cool parts that get highlighted. (“So there’s this, like, cool part where the guy—the blue guy?—has to tame, like, a flying dinosaur and they’re all on a cliff and he says, like, ‘How do I know which one is mine?’ And, so, the blue girl is, like, ‘He will try to kill you!’ ”) Readers of the Eragon books don’t relate cool incidents; they relate awesome elements. You hear about the Elders, the dragon riders, the magical fire-sword Brisingr; what drags readers in is not the story but the symbols and their slow unfolding. The sheer invocation of a mythology casts a deeper spell than putting the mythology on its feet and making it dance. If you talk to an Eragon reader, you will see why the introductory seven-page synopsis of the mythology is necessary. The synopsis is the story.
And the truth is that most actual mythologies and epics and sacred books are dull. Nothing is more wearying, for readers whose tastes have been formed by the realist novel, than the Elder Edda. Yet the spell such works cast on their audience wasn’t diminished by what we find tedious. The incantation of names is, on its own, a powerful literary style. The enchantment the Eragon series projects is not that of a story well told but that of an alternative world fully entered. You sense that when you hear a twelve-year-old describe the books. The gratification comes from the kid’s ability to master the symbols and myths of the saga, as with those eighty-level video games, rather than from the simple absorption of narrative.
There’s also a sense in which the books, far from being escapist, offer familiar experience in intensified form. Some popular fiction really is straightforwardly escapist; no one’s life is like James Bond’s. We read it to be it. But we all see our lives from the inside to be those of lost kings, orphaned boys. We read such stories because we think we already are it. You don’t “identify” with Sherlock Holmes; you can’t not identify with Luke Skywalker.
That other great phenomenon of fiction for thirteen-year-olds, Meyer’s “Twilight,” may again help explain its more boy-centered companion series. What’s striking is how little escapism there is in these stories of vampires and werewolves. This is how the Bellas of the world actually experience their lives, torn between the cool, sensitive boy from the strange, affluent family and the dishy athletic boy from across the tracks. It’s “My So-Called Life,” with fangs and fur. The genius of the narrative lies in how neatly the familiar experiences are turned into occult ones; the Cullens, for instance, are very much like the non-vampire family in “Endless Love”; even the terrifying Volturi are the Italian family you go and stay with in Europe. The tedious normalcy of the “Twilight” books is what gives them their shiver; this is not so much the life that a teen-age girl would wish to have but the one that she already has, rearranged with heightened symbols. Your life could be like this; seen properly, from inside, it is like this.
Something similar is going on with the Eragon books. Adolescent boys, of the kind who take up books in the first place these days, already experience their lives as a series of ordeals: tests, in every sense. A narrative whose purpose is not to push the hero or heroine toward a moment of moral crisis, à la “Huckleberry Finn” or “Little Women,” but to put him through a telescoped series of ordeals, which aim only at preparing him for the next series of ordeals: this is the story of their life. Eragon never really grows from boy to man, as he might have in another kind of book; he mostly just learns how to be a dragon rider and contend with mysterious helpers, half hostile and half friendly, as kids do at school. Kids go to fantasy not for escape but for organization, and a little elevation; since life is like this already, they imagine that it might be still like this but more magical. By the time they’re ready for college-admissions letters, they’re already dragon riders, if not yet grownups.

For the accomplished few years, Chicago Blackhawks admirers did not accept to anguish abundant about the activity and the affection of adolescent players advancing up through the system. They were too active adequate years of championship-quality hockey with a activating amount of accomplished stars. With aloof three playoff wins over the accomplished three seasons, the charge for high-end adolescent aptitude to be added to the NHL agenda is greater than it has been in over a decade.

“Last week in golf” is a look back at the biggest stories from around the golf world over the past seven days.
Often treated as the PGA Tour’s punching bag and the measuring stick for other players’ success, Fowler battled both self-inflicted and downright unlucky adversity before his fifth career PGA Tour win, with this one coming at the Phoenix Open.
But it wasn’t easy, because it never is for Fowler. He’s squandered five 54-hole leads in his career and also blew a two-shot lead with two holes to play at the 2016 Phoenix Open. Closing is far from his strength, and Sunday was no different.
Fowler lost 5.74 strokes tee to green, a PGA Tour winner’s worst final round in the ShotLink data era (since 2004). He’s also the only player to make triple- and double-bogey in the final round and still win, according to Golf Channel’s Justin Ray.
He didn’t necessarily overcome his Sunday demons, but he certainly battled them and displayed a new-found resiliency – a testament, perhaps, to a more mature outlook on life after turning 30 last month, getting engaged, and experiencing various types of loss, which he alluded to in his post-round press conference.
His first win in his 30s, albeit an interesting one, should be a sign of things to come. The big three-zero used to be the beginning of a golfer’s prime – so let’s give Fowler, say, 15 years to build on his five career PGA Tour wins and numerous worldwide victories.
Remember: Five-time major champion Phil Mickelson didn’t win his first until he was 33 years old.
First, the decision to host a tournament in Saudi Arabia was the Tour’s biggest mistake. Players were put in an unenviable position and forced to answer questions about politics instead of golf, all while the Tour said it’s not interested in holding Saudi Arabia accountable over human rights issues.
Somehow, Garcia won’t face any further punishment from the Tour, with CEO Keith Pelley saying the Spaniard’s apology and disqualification are enough.
There’s also no footage of Garcia’s antics from Golf Channel or Sky Sports, and cameras definitely would have been rolling to capture at least one of his infractions. The apparent cover-up is as troubling as Garcia’s actions, if not more.
The video below of Garcia freaking out in a bunker the day prior to his disqualification is out there. The 39-year-old – known for his blowups – seems to have returned to his old ways.
Lastly, for some reason the European Tour gave Patrick Reed an honorary lifetime membership ahead of Tiger Woods and Mickelson, making Reed only the fourth American to receive the honor. It’s simply a baffling decision.
On Saturday, the PGA Tour announced it decided to rescind the penalty after discussion with the USGA and The R&A, golf’s two governing bodies. The USGA added it’ll be revising the rule, the same one that caused China’s Hoatong Li to lose out on $100,000 two weeks ago in Dubai.
It’s nice to see some sanity from at least one of the world’s tours.
Saturday’s third round at the Phoenix Open marked the end of an era, as legendary golf broadcaster Johnny Miller – known for his honest and unapologetic approach to calling golf, which often rubbed players the wrong way – stepped out of the booth and into retirement.
Miller once said Rocco Mediate looked “more like a guy who cleans Tiger’s swimming pool” rather than a golfer going toe-to-toe with Woods at the 2008 U.S. Open. He also said Mickelson, a five-time major winner, would “be selling cars in San Diego” if it wasn’t for his short game. And Miller ragged on a players’ inability to close tournaments on countless occasions, often referencing the “choke factor” – one of his favorite intangibles.
Regardless of your opinions about Miller’s unique broadcasting approach, there’s no debating that his candid style gave golf a zest it so often lacks.
Paul Azinger will fill the void Miller leaves on NBC’s teams, and his outspoken nature should make the transition seamless.

Ever wonder how many calories you need for weight loss? I am sure you always ask yourselves when you are on a weight loss program. Will this extra little snack push me over my calorie limit and make me fat? How much should I eat to lose weight? How many calories should I burn?
In fact, most of the people are simply guessing their calories intake for weight loss. Some people don’t bother; some people do not believe in counting calories and some just don’t have the idea how. Here is just a simple guide for you to estimate your calorie intake so that you have a goal, target and direction when you are on your weight loss program. This is for the one that really desire to achieve abdominal weight loss for better health and that is willing to learn.
If you have read my previous sections, I always emphasize on this equation. For weight loss, calories in must be lower than calories out, if you want to build muscle, its calories in more than calories out.
The final value from that calculation will bring you the total daily calories. From that, cut back 300 calories from it if you are exercising regularly and if you are not, cut back 500 calories. These are your calorie intake for weight loss. Assuming that your exercise will burn 350 k/cal and you are exercising 4 times a week, or cutting back on 500 calories, you will roughly lose the recommended 1 pound of body fat a week. Its is better for you to exercise because cutting back 300 calories is easier and less depriving than 500 calories and exercising will keep you away from reaching your weight loss plateau by increasing your metabolism, increasing you daily calorie burn by activity, sculpting your body plus preventing the inevitable muscle loss due to old age!
With that final calorie value after cutting out 300 or 500 calories, you need to spread them out into 5 meal or 6 meals. This is because by eating small meals, your blood sugar level is regulated. Carbohydrates and protein have 4 calories, fat have 9 calories and alcohol have 7 calories. The only thing you have to watch out is that calories from alcohol have no benefit at all and will most likely turn to body fat. With these values, plan your meals with the combination of nutrients that do not pass your calorie intake for weight loss.
How to set the percentages of nutrients for the meals?
The general thumb rule is 60 % from carbohydrates, 30% from protein and 10 % from fat. But there are various combination that produce fantastic results as well like low carbohydrate diet, South Beach diet, Cyclical Ketogenic Diet and more. Remember to combine your weight loss program and also tips from exercise section on this website with these facts on calorie intake for weight loss.

What is molecular weight distribution?
We just talked about the fact that polymers can have different molecular weights. Oftentimes in reactions that make polymers a range of molecular weights are produced. The molecules may be composed of the same repeating unit (monomer), but for a number of reasons the chains are different in length. It turns out that this distribution of lengths is important to a number of polymer properties. The details of how this number is calculated are not worth going into; it’s sufficient to know that a higher molecular weight distribution means that there is a larger spread of polymer chain lengths. A distribution of 1.0 would mean that every single polymer chain has the exact same molecular weight.

text: Millerstown Borough Council Meeting Minutes July 2, 2018 Those in attendance: President Rob Shipp, Vice President Bruce Hengst, Council members Tim Ritzman, Donna Showers and Rich Fegley. Secretary Karen Knellinger, Plant Manager Dave Stroup and Sam Beers. Engineer Cory Salmon from HRG. President Shipp called the meeting to order at 7:00 pm. Councilmember Fegely left at 7:10. Public and Private Concerns Resident Rosie Shipp asked if during fire hydrant flushing, the water can be diverted from her property. Councilmember Fegley suggested a small piece of fire hose to redirect the water flow. Ed Nagle from Nagle Trucking in Ohio introduced himself. They will be reopening the Campbellâ€™s Trucking location on West Juniata Parkway. Chief Chris Foose from the Millerstown Fire Department presented a letter of support from the Perry Valley Grange for a fire tax. They offered their concern about funding the fire department and are in favor of a 1 mill tax to be implemented. President Shipp asked what size of membership the Grange has to which Chief Foose is not sure how many members. President Shipp would like to poll the community with a questionnaire or a public hearing before a referendum is presented to voters. This will be included in budget discussions for the year. Chief Foose said he would be in favor for a public hearing or a Town Hall meeting or a combination of both preferably at the firehouse because of more room. The minutes from the last regular meeting were previously emailed and reviewed. Vice President Hengst made a motion to approve the minutes as presented. Councilmember Showers seconded the motion. Approval was unanimous. The bills/receipts/expenditures were reviewed. Vice President Hengst motion to approve the bills and expenditures. Councilmember Showers seconded the motion. Approval was unanimous. Street Committee Report Dave advises an 18â€� storm pipe on Sunbury Street will be replaced on Thursday with the help of the Millerstown Fire Department to flag. Penn Dot had televised the other side and Dave suggests planning on replacing this next year. However, this is a 30â€� pipe. Iron Mountain has some erosion issues to review before a possible guardrail could be installed. Cory reviewed the road and advised there needs erosion control and diverting water possibly with boulder placement. He feels a guardrail will not prevent a vehicle from going over but possibly a retention wall is needed and other areas are worse than the place in question. DEP will need to get involved if the stream is to be redirected. Cory would need to consult with some other HRG engineers for advice. Greenwood Township would need to repair their side in conjunction with the Boroughâ€™s portion. A grant or assistance will be needed for such a large undertaking. Cory will review for possible funding assistance or grants available. Due to the cost and the small amount of road actually with the Borough limits, tabled until a later date. The Street Committee will continue to review. Dave will begin painting crosswalks with the Penn Dot approved paint with glass beads. Locust Street has been out for bid, Hammaker as the only bid received for $15,500 and a patch on Iron Mountain for $3,445. Vice President Hengst motion to approve the bid. Councilmember Showers seconded the motion. Approval was unanimous. Councilmember Ritzman advised the sidewalk project by MCSI has been completed. He also acknowledged the fire company flagging while the pipe was removed on Sunbury Street. This was a 10 hour day for all involved with approximately 10 different fire personnel on hand. He was also advised of a sink hole on the 200 block of Sunbury Street. Dave said he was aware form the winter pipe break and this will be paved at the same time the storm pipe project is completed and paved. Sewer Committee Report A tour of the plant is scheduled for Friday, July 8th at 8am. Sam Beers has received his wastewater license. The Council congratulated him. Water Committee Report Dave has not been contacted about scheduling the tower cleaning. The Consumer Confidence Reports were sent on June 28th to all customers and posted locally and on the website. Dave will be hooking up the pump for the chlorine conversion on Tuesday and has DEP scheduled for next week. Dave advises a hydrant tap will need to be installed at the tower per DEP regulations. All dead ends will need weekly residual testing. He will need a plan to DEP by October. Councilmember Ritzman will pursue reviewing the purchase of a larger backhoe in the $30,000 range. The dump truck has a rear oil seal leaking. Finance Committee Report The DCED audit is underway. Solid Waste Committee Report Councilmemberâ€™s Ritzman and Showers will be reviewing the contract for 2019. Engineers Report The Consumer Confidence Report certification has been sent to DEP. Cory assisted Glace Associates in closing the NPDES permit on Contract V for the sewer plant upgrade from 2012. The CFA grant previously applied for will not be awarded until 9/18/18. Cory checked into possible funding for flood mitigation and advised the grants are difficult to qualify as they are extremely politically motivated. The Borough does not qualify for CDGB funding and possibly a Penn Vest loan or a bank loan. Documented proof of the issues would need to be filed as well as newspaper articles DEP letters, etc. Cory advises the Penn Dot Market Street project funding will need to be reviewed and Secretary Knellinger will follow up. Mayors Report The Mayor was absent. Solicitors Report Solicitor Miner has several livestock ordinances to be reviewed. These were distributed for a review at a later time. Comcast requested an exclusive contract be updated. Secretary Knellinger is contacting the COG per Mr. Minerâ€™s direction. He also researched the backflow prevention program and DEP does not have enforcement procedures at this time. Old Business Vice President Hengst is still trying to reach his contact at Penn Dot concerning the review of brake retarder signs on Market and Sunbury Streets. New Business The paint sprayer and paint is in service. Zoning Permit None A motion was made by Councilmember Showers to adjourn. Vice President Hengst seconded the motion. Meeting was adjourned. The next meeting will be held Monday, August 6th at 7:00 PM.

Tonight was another epic squatting session. This is probably my favourite workout because it absolutely destroys me. I leave the gym and my shirt feels like I just soaked it in a tub of hot water for a day. My legs are usually completely mangled and I feel great.
Started the session off with my deficit deadlifts to warm up. Those went up pretty easily. Based on my results from my last volume squatting workout, I was hoping to adjust the pyramid a bit to account for another set at 185 (bumped up from 165). The best part is this small increment means I didn’t notice any difference in my workout. It was still demanding as hell, but nothing seemed different compared to last time. The total volume for sets of 10 is up to 21950 lbs, so I’m pretty stoked about that.
I’ve also taken to doing bicep curls between every single 10×10 set which is going really well. I hadn’t been doing any sort of barbell curl for a really long time (just stuck to dumbbells) so I’m regaining some strength on that without even really focusing on it. I’m hoping that after a few more months of doing this (i.e. half a year) I’ll notice some measurable gains on my arms. Although, that might just come from the increased eating that’ll be coming up.
When I was front squatting tonight, I opted to just stay at 135. I was totally in the groove with sitting in the hole holding the weight on my shoulders, so I decided to take advantage of that. I did some isometric holds at the bottom, and since my legs were pretty gassed noticed it was actually pretty demanding to front squat even that much. It seemed like a good trade off: Less weight, more posture practice.
Straight Bar Curls 12 x 8 60 Did these after most squat sets.
Front Squats 3 x 3 135 3 second isometric hold at bottom. Superset with reverse EZ bar curls.

I just saw the Premiere of David Sington’s movie The Flaw at Sundance. The movie explores the root causes of the financial crisis in the US that led to the recent global economic meltdown. I found it astonishing. One might expect the familiar discussion of collateralized debt and predatory lending, and the filmmakers in Q & A after the movie said they set out to tell that story but stumbled onto something completely different.
In the last 30 years, US GDP has doubled, but real wages for 90% of Americans have gone down in that time. Think about that for a second, total US financial prosperity has increased 100% but 90% of us are making less money. The upshot is that ALL that money, the 100% increase in US GDP, has gone to the other 10% who are the richest people in America (for instance in 2006, 800 billion dollars or 6% of the total US GDP went to just 15,000 people in the US). What the filmakers noticed is the only other time income inequality got as high as it is now was in 1929, the year of the last financial collapse. They go on to make a pretty compelling argument of how these numbers led to the current crisis.
Basically, to maintain the mid-20th century experience of increasing prosperity for the 90% of Americans with less income, the 10% who are actually making more money lent some of it to the rest of us through easy credit (credit cards and mortgages). This provides the rest of the population with a social and economic experience of increased wealth and economic growth without the need to actually increase wages. There’s an additional benefit that all those loans further transfer wealth upwards through loan fees and interest payments. And these are no small numbers… in 2007, bank profits accounted for 40% of all profits in America.
The film suggests that a fundamental cause of the boom-bust bubbles of the last 30 years (most recently the internet boom and the housing bubble) goes something like this… Because wages are stagnant, normal people can no longer improve their socio-economic status through hard work. So when there appears to be growth potential in a new market (i.e. the internet or houses) middle class people see it as a way to actually move up in the world and are likely to pour their life savings into it. The filmmakers found strong evidence that the most recent collapse wasn’t really caused by a massive increase in loans to risky borrowers as is commonly perceived. Rather it was that people who once were stable home owners were turning into people who were a credit risk. As house prices went up, more people began to refinance to pull equity out of their houses, thinking they could make a lot of money in real estate or pay off their other credit debts. But since house prices were way over actual values, people were actually just spending the last of the real equity they had accumulated in their lives. When house prices reset towards normal, once stable people were stuck with huge mortgage payments on houses worth a fraction of the inflated market value and they defaulted on their loans, losing the equity they had spent their whole lives accumulating.

This collection is the result of the Capturing the Life Cycle of Ceramics in Rome (CALC-Rome) and Hidden Treasure of Rome (HTR) projects. The CALC-Rome project's research questions focus on the function, use, and re-use of ceramic vessels deposited in ritual and funerary contexts in Republican and Imperial Rome. What individual or community choices, social conventions, practices and beliefs were at play when vessels were selected for use in the meaningful moments of burial or ritual offering, and how can we better understand them by studying the vessels themselves? In order to study the social dynamics of the funerary and ritual deposition of ceramic vessels, this project was established in coordination with the Hidden Treasure of Rome (HTR) project, which is providing access to an extraordinary collection of complete or near complete vessels from ritual and funerary contexts in the area of Rome, Italy.
Since the summer of 2014, University of Missouri (MU/Mizzou) archaeologists from the Museum of Art and Archaeology and the Department of Art History and Archaeology have been cataloguing a previously unstudied collection of antiquities from Room V of the Antiquarium at the Musei Capitolini in Rome, whose transfer to MU is being funded by Enel Green Power (EGP) as part of the Hidden Treasure of Rome (HTR) project. MU archaeologists have been performing coordinated morphological study, chemical analyses, and a use wear study with structured light scanning, with the aim of understanding the production, use and deposition of these objects.
Thus far, formal analysis has been conducted for a sample of 249 black gloss vessels dating from the Roman Republican period (4th to 1st centuries BCE), with X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) performed on a subset of these objects, providing data that sheds light on the production of the artifacts. During the first phase of the HTR agreement a pilot project, CALC-Rome, funded by Mizzou Advantage and Research Council, was launched in collaboration with experts from the Center for Advanced Spatial Technologies at the University of Arkansas (CAST-UA), the UMR 6249 Chrono-Environnement of the University of Burgundy Franche Comté (UBFC), and Carleton University (Canada). The goal was to develop an approach to the scanning of these artifacts that supports both detailed metric study for research on their use and digital display and archiving. The results of the initial Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI), 3D scanning, and formal analysis are archived here. Object titles in this collection correspond to the Object codes in the Musei Capitolini catalog.

We are always looking for talents; our agents frequently take part in several basketball camps in the Sates and in Europe. While recruiting new players and coaches we seriously look into the history of the potential client in order to proceed the most fair and honest way.
I have been working with Vinko and LVG for 8 years now. Two years in Hungary and 6 years in Romania. I have never been to a situation (basketball-wise) when Vinko or Tiberiu wasn’t present to assisted me, rather it’s in Hungary or in Romania. Their assistants and devotions made me loyal to the LVG for 8 years now.
If I have to recommend a player for an agency without being bias, I will strongly recommend the LVG because of their dedications towards the players.
I’d also like to thanks the LVG for helping me in my career and finding adequate places for me.
Vinko Laszlo and his agency is a very professional crew. He is an agent that is a man of his word and keeps his promises. There were plenty of situations that I did not like and I called him. He didnt hesitate, and he resolved the problem as quick as possible. I am always satisfied with his production. He makes sure he puts you in the right situation possible as far as your career goes. If anything I recommend you to Vinko Laszlo and I can guarantee you will be satisfied!
First, I want to thank the guys at the Vinko Group agency. I genuinely enjoyed working with you all, because I always felt like you guys cared about the best interest of the player. As I enter a new journey in life, I know that the contacts and the relationships that I have built with the Vinko Group will last for many years to come. You all were more than just an agency, you are like family!
I’ve been working together with Laszlo Vinko and his agency for more than 10 years. After a few seasons playing in Hungary we succeed to get contract to overseas’ teams to Greece, Spain, Ukraine and Serbia and attend in Euroleage, Eurocup and Eurochallenge games. I also became almost 100 times National Team player.
Of course there were difficulties during the years but our relation, rest on trust and strong friendship was the guarantee eliminating the problems and being able to play in high prestige teams.
I can say without the agency I could not get into this high level in my career. LVG is the most prepared most professional and the steadiest agency with its extended network in the Hungarian basketball.
I'm working with LVG 4 years. One of my friends give me contacts of this agency. And they help me to sign contracts in new countries, new markets. Our relations are very good, the agency can help and fix all my problems, no matter this is about basketball or some routine questions. I also recommend LVG to my friends. I'm satisfied of our work together, and i hope we will continue like this.

At Acadia Montana, we understand how difficult it can be for a parent or guardian to decide to enroll their child into a residential psychiatric treatment facility. We respect the courage and commitment of each parent or guardian who makes this life-affirming choice, and we are dedicated to ensuring that the admissions process is an efficient and stress-free experience for all.
Parents who believe that their son or daughter may be a candidate for treatment at Acadia Montana should contact our admissions coordinator, Chris Dziak. Once Mr. Dziak has received all necessary clinical information from the professionals who have previously been working with the young person in question, he will forward this information to our admissions committee to determine if the potential resident is appropriate for Acadia Montana.
Montana is a certificate of need state. That means that a licensed therapist and a psychiatrist or medical doctor from the community are required to fill in the need for admission and sign the document.
The state will not accept a document that does not have both of these signatures, nor will it accept the signature of a nurse practitioner.
Acadia Montana is not an acute care facility. If your son or daughter needs immediate admittance because of safety concerns, he or she needs an acute care facility, not residential treatment.
We will be happy to provide referrals to acute care facilities that may be best suited to meeting your child’s specific needs.
Is in need of a 24-hour supervised setting due to risk of harm to self/others or de-compensation, but does not require continuous medical supervision.
Has cognitive capacity to actively participate in our therapeutic program, including a full scale IQ greater than 70. Prospective residents who have an IQ between 50 and 70 may be deemed appropriate based upon their unique circumstances.
Poses a significant risk to others due to a history of being extremely assaultive, combative, and destructive and/or have been aggressive perpetrators of sexual offenses.
Learn more about admissions at Acadia Montana Treatment Center.
If our team determines that we are not prepared to meet your child’s needs, we will provide information about other programs that may be a better fit for your son or daughter.
To learn more about the Acadia Montana admissions, or to get additional information about any aspect of our program, please feel free to contact us at your convenience. We look forward to answering all of your questions and helping you determine if Acadia Montana is the ideal place for your child and your family.

WASHINGTON (Alliance News) - Gold prices held steady on Thursday after the Fed's latest report on the economy said businesses across the US have become less optimistic in recent months.
Spot gold edged up 0.2% to USD1,294.11 per ounce, while US gold futures were virtually unchanged at USD1,293.75 per ounce.
As economic headwinds mount, the Federal Reserve is expected to hold interest rates steady at least until June.
The dollar took a breather today after recent gains, while the British pound steadied after British Prime Minister Theresa May won a confidence vote in the parliament and urged lawmakers to break the impasse on a Brexit divorce agreement.
Meanwhile, as the US government shutdown enters its 26th day, GOP Senator John Kennedy dismissed a bipartisan effort to urge President Donald Trump to open the government for several weeks to clear the way for talks on border security.
