| SEPTEMBER 29, 2015 Ecclestone denies ordering Mercedes TV blackout Bernie Ecclestone has denied he manipulated the coverage of Sunday's Japanese grand prix to exclude Mercedes.
The silver cars, finishing first and second at Suzuka after the Singapore slump, were shown for just 5 of the 90 broadcasted minutes of the official race coverage.
Bosses Toto Wolff and Niki Lauda admitted they noticed the discrepancy, and suggestions elsewhere noted that Ferrari was also not prominently featured on the so-called 'world feed'.
Lauda vowed to meet in London with F1 supremo Ecclestone this week to ask about the Mercedes 'blackout', amid rumours the carmaker was being punished for refusing to supply engines to Red Bull next year.
But Ecclestone told Germany's Die Welt newspaper: "There was no manipulation.
"A few weeks ago we talked about the directing of the races and came to the conclusion that the midfield should be shown more often.
"To just show the leading cars is boring, but we're also doing it to better support the midfield teams," the 84-year-old explained.
"Lauda and Wolff know about these considerations and will understand," Ecclestone added.
"The directors in Japan maybe went a bit far with it, but I did not intervene," he insisted.

| The 5 Exes You Should Unfriend On Facebook For Sanity’s Sake September 2, 2015 By Tracey Lloyd Share on Facebook Tweet this Pin this on Pinterest Email this story Source: Shutterstock
So you had a breakup and you’re about to hit the “unfriend” button on Facebook. Then, you think, maybe I’m being too rash. I’m here to tell you that you’re not. There is no good reason to be friends with your ex on Facebook, or in real life. However, there are 5 kinds of exes in particular that you should delete from all social platforms — along with their phone numbers. The One Who Was Never Really Your Friend – Sometimes we start dating someone so quickly that we never get to know them as friends. I had one of these, though he was more of a sex buddy than a boyfriend exactly. Sure, we used to have drinks and dinner beforehand and sometimes watch a movie, but our meetings weren’t like dates, they were more like appointments than anything else. Once I’d gone to the psych hospital and decided to become abstinent, I had no reason to see him. We really had next to nothing in common, and I realized that I’d been feigning interest in his conversation until we got to the sex, which was marginal at best. Unfriend? Yes! The One Who Broke Up With You Badly – Everyone has had a bad breakup. I don’t mean that you didn’t want to break up with the person. I mean that the person handled the breakup badly. Maybe you initiated the split and they hung on, refusing to stop calling you. My bad breaker-upper was a man I went out with for over a year who broke up with me via email. Email! His note went to some length to explain that he didn’t think that we were a “marriage match.” I wrote back that I couldn’t see myself spending any more time with someone who’d break up via electronic means. He clearly proved that he couldn’t deal with emotions, or with making adult decisions, without putting a buffer up. Truth is, I was going to break up with him but I was waiting for the chance to do it in person like a grown-up. When Facebook asks if he’s someone I might know, I scroll past him. Quickly. The One Who Did You Dirty – Sometimes we think that we should forgive and forget, and that’s a good policy. Some of us think that the “forget” means “forget the terrible thing that someone has done to you.” I think it means “forget them!” I can say this because I had an ex that cheated on me, and I decided to stay friends with him because we were friends beforehand. The problem was that in the course of our “friendship,” he revealed that there was more cheating than I’d originally thought, for longer than I’d originally thought. I could have done well without learning that information, since it sent me into a depression about why I didn’t notice that he was two-timing me, about why I can’t have a good relationship, about how I’ll never find someone who really loves me. Not good. See, if I hadn’t offered the olive branch by friending this man on Facebook, I never would’ve known what a jackass he was and I would’ve maintained some semblance of self-esteem. The One That Got Away – Maybe you had a decent breakup, talk occasionally and think that you’re friends with your ex. Maybe you think that ex will be a former ex if you play your cards right. Then you see his new profile picture on Facebook where he’s hugged up with some woman and his relationship status has changed to “In a Relationship.” You think, well he never did that with me! That’s why you don’t need to be friends, on Facebook or anywhere else, with someone you haven’t quite gotten over yet. It will do you no good to see the vacation pictures, restaurant check-ins and tagged status updates that your old dude has with his new boo. When I see that kind of thing, I want to cry, vomit and throw my laptop all at the same time. That’s why I’ve unfriended the dude who could have been my Mr. If he wants to come crawling back, he has my number even though I’ve deleted his from my phone. The One Who is Doing Better Than You – So, I had a boyfriend who I thought was the love of my life. He broke up with me twice and I still came back for more. So did he. The last time was the hardest, since I was going through a depressive episode at the time and the breakup made everything worse. True to form, I unfriended him on Facebook and deleted his number from my phone. A few years later I was over my breakup grief, I’d worked through some relationship issues with my therapist, and I’d started some medications that really seemed to work. Then I found out that my ex had gotten married. I’d forgotten about all of our mutual friends who might be invited to something like a wedding. There they all were, my ex, his wife and our friends, looking very festive on someone’s Facebook wall. I hadn’t accounted for that, and I got upset and jealous. I wasn’t jealous of the new wife; I was jealous of my ex for having moved on and started a significant portion of his life with a new partner. I wanted that for myself, but I was still in a holding pattern. The bad news was that I had a good cry. The good news was that I was finally over the ex and wanting to be with him Sometimes we turn off things that we don’t want to see, like Facebook feeds, and they protect us from feeling unnecessary hurt. Since I live every day with the pain of depression, I’m all for making things easier. But sometimes we turn off things and they keep us from growing and learning about ourselves. I don’t recommend that. But I do still recommend cutting off the exes on social media.

| Danske Bank Ulster Schools’ Round Up Saturday 29th August 2015
On Saturday 29th August the Danske Bank Ulster Schools U18’s squad took part in a tournament at King’s School, Macclesfield. The team played four matches, each of 20 minute halves, with no kick of any type allowed at goal and the emphasis on tries. The purpose of the tournament was very much on pre-season practice and to give coaches the chance to experiment with players in different positions and combinations, as well as try out various patterns of play, so there was no overall winner to the tournament.
In the opening match against Denstone College, James Hume opened the scoring after Ulster followed up the kick off to force a scrum following a knock on. The RBAI centre outwitted the opposition defence before cutting through for the try. Ulster conceded a couple of penalties in quick succession and Denstone levelled the scores with a quickly taken tapped penalty to draw the score level at 5-5. Ulster regained the lead when Matthew Dalton (BRA) broke through several tackles and reached out to make the line to touch down for the try. Early in the second period Jack Barry-Glendinning (CCB) scored a try and Josh Agnew (RS Armagh) completed the scoring with a fine try when he took advantage of good work from Michael Lowry before outpacing a bemused opposition defence. This ensured the Danske Bank Ulster Schools’ squad won the game by 20-5.
In the second match against Bristol GS, Ulster again scored an early try when hooker, Clayton Milligan (Down HS), crossed the line after a good carry by Zac Ward (Down HS). Then a James Nelson (Campbell College) tackle forced a turnover and when the ball was moved quickly Josh Agnew (RSA) finished when he touched down for the try. In the second half winger, Ben Finlay (Wallace HS), scored a try and then Callum Smith (Coleraine GS) completed the scoring with a rehearsed move to see the Danske Bank Ulster Schools’ squad through with a 20-0 win.
The pattern of an early score was repeated in the third match when Ulster took a quickly tapped penalty and prop, Tyler Arnold (Belfast HS), was on hand to take the pass to score the opening try against St Joseph’s Ipswich. In the second half good work by Matthew Agnew (Bangor GS) brought a try for Matthew Norris (Coleraine GS). Ben Finlay (WHS) then completed the scoring when he showed good strength to break a couple of tackles for a try in the left hand corner to secure a 15-0 win for the Danske Bank Ulster Schools’ squad.
In the final match against Warwick School the Danske Bank Ulster Schools’ team once again scored inside the first four minutes. A clever switch of play by Michael Lowry (RBAI) created space for James Hume who used his pace to run in for the score. A break by Alexander Clark (Ballymena Academy) took play deep into the Warwick half and created the space for James Hume to add his second try. In the second period several drives down the left hand side of the pitch saw Callum Smith (Coleraine GS) rewarded with a try. James Hume (RBAI) then completed his hat trick for this match when he picked up a loose ball to score and Warwick School completed the scoring with a similar try. Ulster finished the game on the attack only metres from the Warwick line to win the final game 20 -5.
This very well run tournament was a very useful exercise for both the Danske Bank Ulster Schools’ players and coaches who will now switch their focus to preparing for the first Inter Provincial match of the season on Saturday 12th September at 3.00pm at Belfast Harlequins when they will meet Leinster Schools. This will provide a gvreat opportunity for rugby supporters to go along a see the next generation of potential Ulster Rugby players and all support would be appreciated. | SPORTS |

| When Google debuted Chromecast in 2013, the streaming dongle was a hit. While it’s been juiced up with new features over the past few years, we’ve been waiting for a true upgrade. The wait is over: At today’s Google Nexus event, Google debuted the new Chromecast, as well as a device called Chromecast Audio.
Here’s what we know about the long-overdue revamp of Google’s streaming hardware. New Chromecast Advertisement This superpowered version of Chromecast is available today in seventeen countries. The price is still right at $35. Google’s Mario Queiroz emphasized the new device’s improved connectivity, with an upgraded antenna system and a Wifi chip that chooses the best connection. Queiroz also announced that Showtime is also bringing its content to Chomecast, and it’ll now support Sling TV and apps from the NBA, NHL, and other partners. You’ll be able to browse the Chromecast dashboard on your phone without making it show up on the TV, so it’ll function closer to a remote. The Chromecast app also got an upgrade, with a new “What’s On” feature that shows you content from the apps you have installed on your phone. The new playback controls also help you use your phone as a remote for Chromecast. Chromecast will work with Google’s photos feature. If you want to show friends a few photos, you can tap on it and send it to your TV. You can also send GIFs. Unlike mirroring, this gives people control over which photos they share. The new Chromecast comes in black, coral, and lemonade. The integrated HDMI cable means it’s easier to plug into any TV. Chromecast Audio Google basically took the good things about pairing your Chromecast with a TV and adjusted the experience for people who want to stream audio. Chromecast Audio isn’t the same thing as Google Cast for Audio, which is a Google service that links Chromecast with speakers—it’s Chromecast dongle designed to get your music played. It looks a lot like the new Chromecast, except instead of an HDMI connector it has a 3.5 mm audio port. It works with any phones, tablets, and laptops connected to your network. The “guest mode” lets friends send music to your speakers even if they don’t have your Wifi password, which is pretty sweet. You’ll also be able to mirror audio from any Chrome device, including YouTube videos. And I mean juiced-up. Chromecast Audio plugs into existing home speakers and streams audio from apps like Spotify, Pandora, and iHeartRadio. It has the same connectivity system as the new Chromecast. It supports RCA and optical inputs as well, and multi-room sync is expected later this year. (You’d need to buy multiple Chromecast Audio devices to make it work though, obviously.) Like Chromecasts new and old, Chromecast Audio is also available today for $35. If it’s as good as it sounds, Sonos should be afraid. Screenshots by Michael Hession | SCIENCE & TECH |

Early in the age of modern medicine the consequences of vitamin A deficiency drew attention to the fundamental link between retinoid-dependent homeostatic regulation and malignant hyperproliferative diseases. The term retinoid includes a handful of endogenous and a large group of synthetic derivatives of vitamin A. These multifunctional lipid-soluble compounds directly regulate target genes of specific biological functions and critical signaling pathways to orchestrate complex functions from vision to development, metabolism and inflammation. Many of the retinoid activities on the cellular level have been well characterized and translated to the regulation of processes like differentiation and cell death, which play critical roles in the outcome of malignant transformation of tissues. In fact, retinoid-based differentiation therapy of acute promyelocytic leukemia was one of the first successful examples of molecularly targeted treatment strategies. The selectivity, high receptor binding affinity and the ability of retinoids to directly modulate gene expression programs present a distinct pharmacological opportunity for cancer treatment and prevention. However, to fully exploit their potential, the adverse effects of retinoids must be averted. In this review we provide an overview of the biology of retinoid (activated by nuclear retinoic acid receptors, RARs) and rexinoid (engaged by nuclear retinoid X receptors, RXRs) action concluded from a long line of preclinical studies, in relation to normal and transformed states of cells. We will also discuss the past and current uses of retinoids in the treatment of malignancies, the potential of rexinoids in the cancer prevention setting, both as single agents and in combinations. | SCIENCE & TECH |

Was man nicht so alles mit einer selbst gebastelten 40W Laser Shotgun anstellen kann…
Just finished building my 40W(!!!) laser shotgun!!! The output of this laser is complete insanity, and is made up of 8 parallel 5W laser beams totaling to 40W. The parallel beams are manipulated with lenses, sort of like how a choke modifies the spread of a shotgun blast.
The massive diode array is powered by a huge lithium polymer battery pack (capable up dumping 250A) and the laser array is regulated by a whopping 24 LM317 drivers.

| I’m in the US this week researching developments in criminal justice reform. It’s part of a project to update the report I prepared last year on Justice Reinvestment for Transform Justice. A few minutes into my first meeting, my interviewee looked down at his phone and told me he’d that minute received a text from the British Embassy inviting him to meet Justice Secretary Michael Gove when he’s in Washington DC later this month. I had to explain I had not been sent ahead as some sort of scout. But the coincidence is perhaps not surprising. The election of a new Conservative government with savings to find in criminal justice and an interest in localism and devolution does provide a timely opportunity to see whether the range of reforms undertaken in the name of Justice Reinvestment in more than 20 states - plus important changes at the Federal level -offer lessons for England and Wales.What might Gove learn about developments over here? On the evidence of day one, most significant perhaps has been the changing conservative mind set on crime and punishment. At an American Enterprise Institute seminar this afternoon, Republican Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner described federal prison policy as “financially unsustainable and morally irresponsible”. He argued not only that continuous increases to the list of federal offences did the nation no service but that mass incarceration has torn families apart. As a former Chair of the Judiciary Committee who oversaw much of the federal prison expansion in the 1990’s, his conversion to the cause of reform has taken many by surprise. As with better known advocates of Right on Crime such as former Republican speaker Newt Gingrich a combination of budget pressures, ideological preference for a smaller state and a belief in redemption have created a paradigm shift. The fact that the public have shown themselves more interested in effectively reducing recidivism than in ensuring lengthy sentences are served in full has meant that arguing for reform in this area no longer carries the electoral costs it once did. Californian voters have for example ensured that a third offence must be serious and violent to qualify for a mandatory minimum and that stolen property must be worth more than $950 for a theft to count as a felony. Small steps but probably unthinkable a decade ago. Whether the public would go as far as David Kennedy who told the AEI meeting that overuse of incarceration actually leads to more crime- both by limiting life chances of offenders and weakening informal social controls in the community- is another matter. But there seems widespread support for his contention that improved legitimacy of police and other criminal justice agencies and more effective communication to offenders of the punishments that they’ll face, could bring crime down further. Indeed it is the bipartisan nature of the criminal justice reforms that is striking. Adam Gelb from the Pew Trusts told the AEI seminar that votes for reform packages in states around the country have received support from 6000 legislators and opposition from just 500. This reflects no doubt the horse trading that has taken place before votes are taken. Some agencies- prosecutors in particular – seem to have been nervous in some states. It’s not clear whether this is due to outdated knowledge about the most effective use of prison or political self- interest- they face the electorate in most states. Other officials and unions might become more agitated if more aggressive reforms lead to prisons closing or more serious or violent offenders facing shorter sentences. Yet these are the measures which will be needed if serious inroads are to be made into US prison populations and substantial funds freed up for social programmes. In truth the reforms introduced so far have only touched the edge of what is compared to Western Europe still a draconian system. Gove will find out that the momentum of those reforms has been slowed by reports of spikes in violent crimes in particular cities and by particularly horrific cases such as a San Francisco murder committed by an illegal immigrant. If America’s twenty year crime decline goes into reverse, arguments for reform will be harder to make. Whether these turn out to be bumps in the road or the end of the road remain to be seen. | LAW & CRIME |

| Here's an extract from the old Manual Worker job evaluation scheme (JES) which remained in place from the 1980s until new pay and JES arrangements were put in place by the Scottish Council employers under the 1999 Single Status (Equal Pay) Agreement.
In South Lanarkshire the council management and the trade unions both claimed that they implemented 'satisfactory' new arrangements in 2004, although as regular readers know the South Lanarkshire JES was subsequently shown to be 'unfit for purpose' following a long-running Employment Tribunal hearing initiated by Action 4 Equality Scotland.
Some councils took even longer to introduce new pay and JES arrangements, but that's another story for another day.
The significance of the following extract from the old Green Book (as it was called) JES lies in the reference to true "physical tasks" and "social duties" required of Home Carers back in the late 1980s which demonstrates, conclusively, that a major part of these jobs was to help their clients to live independently in their own homes.
In other words, the outdated image of Home Carers just making cups of tea and 'hoovering the carpet' had disappeared long ago and this was reflected in the Manual Worker 5 Grade that Home Carers were awarded - higher than that of a council refuse collector, refuse driver of gravedigger, for example.
Yet because the Home Carers jobs did not receive big bonus payments the male jobs all ended up being paid much more than the women - with the men getting £9.00 and hour or more, while the female carers (and other similar jobs) lagged way behind on only £6.00 an hour to thereabouts.
Now why is this important?
Because I've now finished reading written witness statement prepared by the Unison branch secretary in South Lanarkshire, Stephen Smellie, for the marathon tribunal hearing against South Lanarkshire Council.
And before I share with readers what Mr Smellie had to say, I think's it's important that everyone understand some basic facts about the old Manual Worker jobs and how they were graded.
More to follow in the days ahead.

| I watch the internet all of the time so that we can do more to Keep America At Work and I wanted to show you these comments so that you would have a better understanding.
But first on a different subject, our government was supposed to be investigating the disney, and SCE cases for wrong doing.
While I have seen nothing from any American media yet, it has been all over the Indian Media this morning that Infosys was found not guilty which makes me wonder, how many temporary workers on temporary non immigrant visas have been working on this case within our government and why aren’t Americans being hired for these positions?

| Why do interviewers ask strange interview questions like, “What animal would you be?” They want to throw you off your game and get candid answers (they know you’ve practiced good answers to interview questions ) and they really want a peek into your personality and thought process. Hiring you is a risk, and they want to make sure they make the right choice.
Related: 5 Strategies For Overcoming Interview Nerves
There’s no such thing as being over-prepared for any job interview, and that includes being ready for questions like this one. It’s actually a pretty good pre-interview exercise —thinking about the qualities necessary to do a job well can help you focus your thoughts on how to better answer all your interview questions.
All job interview answers should tie in to your ability to do the job—so when you think of an animal, think about the qualities or functions you can attribute to it that would be great for this job. Keep your answer simple and brief. Name the animal, and then give one or two qualities that you see in the animal that also describe you. (Don’t let them draw their own conclusions.)
Here are nine great animals to choose (and eight to stay away from):
Horse
These are strong, intelligent, fast-moving animals who are great working alone or as part of a team.
Ant
Ants are the ultimate hard worker and team player. They can be good for jobs requiring repetitive work, but they are also known for planning ahead—remember the fable about the ant and the grasshopper?
Monkey
Monkeys are energetic and quick learners.
Chimpanzee
Chimps are famous for their intelligence and their group dynamics. They work well in groups, are team players, are clever, and are socially sensitive (which translates to emotional intelligence).
Elephant
Elephants are strong, intelligent (they have a great memory), and group-oriented. They are also strong and unstoppable.
Dog
Man’s Best Friend is best-known for its extreme loyalty and protectiveness. A dog might be a good choice for someone in a support role.
Dolphin
Super-intelligent and intuitive dolphins could be a good example for problem-solvers.
Eagle
Be careful with this one—an eagle could be good if you are in sales or in a leadership position, because you can say that they are aggressive hunters, or they can see the big picture from up there, but an eagle could be seen as a negative if you’re interviewing for a job that needs you to be a team player.
Lion
Lions are great for leadership roles. They are strong, commanding leaders.
What animals should you stay away from? Any animal that has negative qualities associated with it.
Cat
Cats are independent, but they are also known for not giving a darn about you as long as they get what they want.
Whale
I personally like whales a lot—but when associated with personality, people tend to think fat, bloated, or slow.
Snake
Snakes are sneaky and inspire fear—maybe a great thing for a mob boss or drug dealer, but not you.
Spider
You set traps and wait for your prey to get stuck so you can eat it alive? Great.
Pig
You may love pigs, but the associations with it are lazy and messy.
Cow
Cows are slow and vulnerable.
Chicken
Chickens are not smart animals.
Fox
Foxes are smart but sneaky. Ask the chickens.
A fun way to end your answer is to ask them what their animal would be. It could give you your own clue into the personality of your potential future boss.

| Welcome to the blogging hodgepodge for this month. I wanted to clear up by reading queue, and present some of these ideas and articles in an entertaining way.

The debate over replicability in Psychology (and by extension sciences that are not particle physics) rages on. This month, a shot was fired from the "Psychology is not very replicable" camp. The Open Science Collaboration published a paper in Science showing that many replications of experiments fail to reproduce the same levels of statistical significance and power as the original studies.
Critics have blamed this lack of replicability on a number of culprits, including shortcomings of the NHST approach itself. Two potential culprits I have pointed to previously include complexity and cultural context, the latter which we will return to in a bit.

This author uses a marketing metaphor to help imporive the efficiency of a researcher's efforts. The advice bolis down to the following:
* promote results, publications, and lectures all around a central theme.
* find the right breadth of research. This should be greater than a hyper-specialized topic, but narrow enough to constitute a unique niche. | CULTURE & ARTS |

| When people are faced with homelessness, they lose a lot more than just their shelters. They also lose their visibility to other people, many of whom pass them by without a second glance. They lose their humanity and dignity, and many face abuse and unfair treatment. And finally, they lose their voices as human beings, as their plights and stories often go unheard. But Cafe Art, a London-based organization, is looking to change that by giving homeless people a chance to earn some money by showing people the world through their eyes.
Everything I Own or Bags of Life, Strand, by David Tovey
Cafe Art Telephone Row, Lincoln’s Inn, by XO
Cafe Art In July, Cafe Art gave out 100 disposable cameras to about 35 people affected by homelessness. The recipients were trained in basic photography techniques by the Royal Photographic Society, and were then tasked with capturing their own unique, and sometimes heartbreaking, views of London. About 80 of the 100 cameras were returned, and some 2,500 photos were ultimately developed. From them, 20 of the best were chosen and displayed. The public then voted on them, and the 12 best photos were chosen for a calendar. The project is being crowdfunded on Kickstarter. Nature’s Tunnel or Light and the End, Stratford, by Ellen Rostant
Cafe Art Past & Present, City of London, by Ioanna Zagkana
Cafe Art Colour Festival, Olympic Park, by Goska Calik
Cafe Art Cutty Sark Photobomb, Greenwich, by ROL
Cafe Art This was chosen as the cover of the 2016 calendar.
Cafe Art’s program seeks to empower homeless people through art, lending them a voice and a creative outlet. The classes help bring them together, and their newfound skills boost their confidence so they can make some money with their own creativity. The program also serves the rest of the population, too, by reminding them that many people with whom they share a city are without homes and resources. The photos help raise awareness of homelessness, and will hopefully inspire people to reach out and help. Left Boot, East London, by Ellen Rostant
Cafe Art Tyre Break, Hackney, by Desmond Henry
Cafe Art Tower Bridge Picnic, Tower Hill, by Ceci
Cafe Art Photography might seem like a strange way to help the homeless, but creating art is actually a major self-esteem booster. “When I had my stroke, it sort of destroyed me,” one of the participants, David Tovey, explained. “I turned up to the competition the first year, and I couldn’t look at anyone, couldn’t even talk to anyone. I walked in, kept my eyes on my feet the whole time, grabbed a camera — wasn’t expecting anything from it — and went out and took photos. And from that, it changed my life. It’s amazing what a disposable camera can do to someone’s self-esteem.”
Some images were not included in the calendar, but are available for purchase as single prints, like the ones you see below.

| Monday evening, the Supreme Court handed down an order that effectively cut off an anti-gay Kentucky county clerk’s last line of legal resistance to marriage equality. Though she has an appeal pending before a lower federal court, that appeal will not be resolved for weeks or even months. Yet, despite the fact that Davis is under a federal court order requiring her to comply with her legal and constitutional obligations to issue marriage licenses, Davis turned aside a same-sex couple Tuesday morning. In an angry confrontation that was videotaped by multiple news outlets, Davis told David Moore and David Ermold, a couple that has now been turned away four times, to leave her office. When the couple refused to leave “until we have a license,” Davis told them that they are “going to have a long day.” She also told the couple that she was acting “under God’s authority.” Davis confronts couple (part 3) pic.twitter.com/nODZoGWxdo — Hillary Thornton (@HillaryWKYT) September 1, 2015 Now that Davis has refused to comply a court order even in the face of the Supreme Court’s recent decision, it is likely that she will be held in contempt of court by the federal judge that originally ordered her to follow the Constitution. Judge David Bunning may subject her to fines until she obeys his order or he can order her to be jailed. Davis says that she will not resign from her job, which is an elected position. She can be impeached by the state legislature, although it is unlikely that there would be enough votes to remove her. The Kentucky state Senate President, Roberts Stivers (R), spoke at a rally supporting her. Innocents Online with Ashley Madison | POLITICS |

| Reading 2 Peter Chapter One and Two this morning I was struck with how timely it is..
The words "Sure word of prophecy" is from the King James.. but The Message translation says it pretty well. We must be careful of what we accept as a Sure Word in this day and hour. Some isn't that sure. 2 Peter Chapter One
16-18 We weren’t, you know, just wishing on a star when we laid the facts out before you regarding the powerful return of our Master, Jesus Christ. We were there for the preview! We saw it with our own eyes: Jesus resplendent with light from God the Father as the voice of Majestic Glory spoke: “This is my Son, marked by my love, focus of all my delight.” We were there on the holy mountain with him. We heard the voice out of heaven with our very own ears.
19-21 We couldn’t be more sure of what we saw and heard—God’s glory, God’s voice. The prophetic Word was confirmed to us. You’ll do well to keep focusing on it. It’s the one light you have in a dark time as you wait for daybreak and the rising of the Morning Star in your hearts. The main thing to keep in mind here is that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of private opinion. And why? Because it’s not something concocted in the human heart. Prophecy resulted when the Holy Spirit prompted men and women to speak God’s Word.
Chapter 2 1-2 But there were also lying prophets among the people then, just as there will be lying religious teachers among you. They’ll smuggle in destructive divisions, pitting you against each other—biting the hand of the One who gave them a chance to have their lives back! They’ve put themselves on a fast downhill slide to destruction, but not before they recruit a crowd of mixed-up followers who can’t tell right from wrong.
2-3 They give the way of truth a bad name. They’re only out for themselves. They’ll say anything, anything, that sounds good to exploit you. They won’t, of course, get by with it. They’ll come to a bad end, for God has never just stood by and let that kind of thing go on. I'm not looking to stone anyone, just be more careful.. PLEASE! | RELIGION |

| Peak bagel (Reuters)
Eli Whitney was a revolutionary patriot in the best sense . He was modest in the extreme, and unostentatious almost to a fault; but through these distinguishing virtues there shone a public spirit and a genius which entitle him to a high rank among the benefactors of man.
—“King Cotton and his Gin,” The Atlantic (1888)
Sixty years from now, when a future Atlantic writer decides to write (or mind-beam) a story about the life of Daniel Thompson, the odds seem low that the man who made the mass-production of bagels possible will find the hyperbolic esteem that Eli Whitney did more than six decades after his death in 1825.
Sure, the bagel didn’t transform the American economy the way that the cotton gin did, but it’s impossible to deny its inimitable prominence in the cultural and culinary terrain. For proof, here’s a sampling of this magazine’s fascination with the ring-shaped roll as an American emblem, diviner of complex matters, cultural signifier, and divisive, edible bugaboo:
Back in 1997, Toby Lester scored the musical notes involved in defrosting a bagel to explain the modern symphony of secondhand music. John Updike summons the bagel bins of a Brooklyn supermarket in “ Varieties of Religious Experience ,” his 2002 short story about a faithless man in the aftermath of September 11 th . In 2009, Ari Zeinzweig dutifully chronicled the 400-year history of the bagel including its crucial service to19th-century Polish radicals and the American labor movement.
Also in 2009, Corby Kummer marveled at the reach of the bagel after seeing it hawked as exotic fare in a Roman airport. Derek Thompson imagined the plight of a bagel shop to explain post-recession recovery efforts in 2010. Jeffrey Goldberg, unsurprisingly, once harangued an unsuspecting Atlantic intern upon encountering the fellow harmlessly spreading hummus on a “Christmas Raisin Ring”—the Goldbergian term for a cinnamon raisin bagel, which is maligned by purists.
That the bagel muscled out the doughnut , its sugary nemesis , in the 1990s to cement top billing on the American breakfast platter is because of Daniel Thompson, who died earlier this month at 94. The son of a Jewish baker, Thompson invented a machine that turned the task of making bagels from arduous to practically automatic. (He also patented the foldable, rolling ping-pong table.)
“You used to have two guys hand-shaping and boiling, and baking who could turn out maybe 120 bagels an hour,” Thompson told an interviewer in 1993 . He boasted that his machine “rolls 200 to 400 dozen bagels an hour.”
As the legend goes, Murray Lender of Lender’s Bagels bought the machine in the early 1960s and helped to turn a chewy, artisan-made, ready-to-eat delicacy into a freezable comestible that required toasting to be edible and could also cut diamonds. Bagels from Thompson’s machine went mainstream and became a stable everywhere from Sandwich, Massachusetts, to Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
“It meant that any Joe off the street could make a bagel,” one bagel expert told Margalit Fox of The New York Times . “And that was one of a confluence of factors that in less than a generation turned the bagel, which had once been smaller and crusty and flavorful, into something that is large and pillowy and flavorless — it had turned into the kind of baked good that Americans like, à la Wonder Bread.”
Bagel snobs and pedants, assuming they’re not mutually exclusive constituencies, have long decried the industrialized bagel for its bland uniformity and for the Mastiff-level mandible power required to ingest one. But without Thompson’s machine, the bagel might have been doomed to semi-obscurity—a regional or ethnic curiosity like the cruller or the kolache. In other words, without Thompson, the mighty bagel as we know it may have remained closed-faced under lox and key.
Some may have preferred it that way. It remains a popular theory that the fruit of Eli Whitney’s genius hastened the outbreak of the Civil War . While Thompson’s machine has not produced anything resembling the Battle of Five Forks, the Lender’s generation seems to be winning the war over the soul of the bagel. Some of the many who came of age in the era of the industrialized bagel (and still eat gluten) seem to seek joy in a toasted bagel’s crunch rather than its uncorrupted chew.
Conceding to this demographic, Murray’s, the venerated New York City institution, became the latest bagel shop to reverse its ban on toasters earlier this month. While traditionalists hold firm, the conventional standard for a bagel may be toast.

| The X Factor returns this weekend for it’s final audition show of the year and this afternoon ITV released a very exciting trailer for the show!
From Sunday onwards the series will hop into it’s bootcamp stage, moving on eventually to the six chair challenge and later this month we’ll visit judges houses once again, so Saturday evening is our last chance to meet the auditionees we can expect to see again at a later date.
Popping up in the new video is Sherilyn Hamilton-Shaw, a 40 year old mum of three and charity owner from Wales. She moves Cheryl Fernandez Versini to tears with her rendition of I Didn’t Know My Own strength and after telling the judges why she gave up singing ten years ago, Simon Cowell told her she had the ‘best’ X Factor back story he’d ever heard!
Irish singer Joseph McCaul is back with a ‘vengeance’ after being booted out of bootcamp in 2012. Simon didn’t love his first song choice, so sent him away with a flea in his ear with an instruction to return with something a bit less predictable. Luckily his version of I Wanna Dance With Somebody went down a little better.
Lucy Duffield is striking out alone for the first time, after her girl group War Of Words very nearly made it big but were dropped from their record label before recording their first single. She also got to sing twice at her tryout and Nick Grimshaw LOVED both tunes. This one has a little bit of feisty in her!
Ghana born duo Menn On Poinnt also make their impression on the judges with a self penned song and Ice Cream man Andy Taylor’s song goes down a treat, but not as well as the delicious treats he brings for the panel, which they end up wearing rather than eating!
Leave your comments below…..

| From early summer 2016, Lufthansa will be the first network airline in Europe to offer broadband on board its short and medium-haul flights. This will enable passengers on continental flights and flights within Germany to enjoy the full freedom to communicate and to use the Internet with a wide bandwidth above the clouds. The first aircraft will be fitted with the new technology in early summer 2016. Carsten Spohr, Chairman of the Executive Board of Deutsche Lufthansa AG, comments: “Lufthansa has always been a pioneer of Internet services on board its aircraft. Having equipped all planes in the Lufthansa intercontinental fleet with our successful FlyNet® system, we are now continuing our success story by providing Internet on board our short and medium-haul flights. We are therefore the first airline in Europe able to offer its guests an Internet surfing experience boasting the same quality and speed as they are used to at home.” The new service from Lufthansa and its technology partner Inmarsat is based on the most modern broadband satellite technology from Inmarsat’s Global Xpress network (Ka-band) and offers seamless, reliable coverage on short and medium-haul flights. Inmarsat recently successfully launched the third satellite in this global constellation and Lufthansa will be its first aviation customer. The service will enable passengers to make the most of broadband Internet access on their own mobile devices via a wireless network. They will not only be able to use simple e-mail services, but also superior applications and even streaming. On top of all this, passengers will also be able to use their mobile phones to send and receive text messages and for the transfer of data based on their own mobile phone contract. Telephone calls on board, however, will still not be allowed due to customer preference. Lufthansa Technik will integrate all systems and components into the aircraft thanks to its many years of experience in the field of plane modification. This work will not only include installation activities, but also all tasks required in terms of aviation and licensing law. Lufthansa Systems will provide the technical infrastructure needed to establish a well-functioning Internet connection on board. This work will include tasks such as setting up network operations in the aircraft, which is the main technical requirement for a wireless network on board and providing the software required for the operation of an Internet portal. Lufthansa Systems and Lufthansa Technik are additionally planning a long-term global partnership in order to also be able to offer other airlines a modern on-board IT platform (BoardConnect) with broadband Internet access that can be used for a number of different purposes. Both the Lufthansa Group and future clients in the third-party market will benefit from the additional services and lower risks provided by this strong partnership. With regard to the future, Lufthansa is also committing to a flight trial programme for a new hybrid network being developed for Europe. The European Aviation Network combines an S-band satellite from Inmarsat with a complementary LTE ground network being provided by Deutsche Telekom. This promising and innovative technology offers potential in terms of costs and can be flexibly adapted to suit the broadband transmission demands of the future. From 2017 onwards, Lufthansa will commence a flight trial program of the new technology. Lufthansa operated the world’s first scheduled flight with broadband Internet access on 15th January 2003. Although it was increasing in popularity among passengers, this technically reliable broadband Internet connection via a wireless network had to be suspended in 2006 because the necessary satellites were no longer in operation. Since December 2010, Lufthansa has again been the first airline to offer broadband Internet access on its intercontinental flights. FlyNet® has been available on all 106 long-haul aircraft in the Lufthansa fleet since the beginning of this year. Lufthansa therefore boasts the world’s largest long-haul fleet with broadband Internet access. | SCIENCE & TECH |

All Scientists Should Be Militant Atheists
BY LAWRENCE M. KRAUSS
As a physicist, I do a lot of writing and public speaking about the remarkable nature of our cosmos, primarily because I think science is a key part of our cultural heritage and needs to be shared more broadly. Sometimes, I refer to the fact that religion and science are often in conflict; from time to time, I ridicule religious dogma. When I do, I sometimes get accused in public of being a “militant atheist.” Even a surprising number of my colleagues politely ask if it wouldn’t be better to avoid alienating religious people. Shouldn’t we respect religious sensibilities, masking potential conflicts and building common ground with religious groups so as to create a better, more equitable world?
I found myself thinking about those questions this week as I followed the story of Kim Davis, the county clerk in Kentucky who directly disobeyed a federal judge’s order to issue marriage licenses to gay couples, and, as a result, was jailed for contempt of court. (She was released earlier today.) Davis’s supporters, including the Kentucky senator and Presidential candidate Rand Paul, are protesting what they believe to be an affront to her religious freedom. It is “absurd to put someone in jail for exercising their religious liberties,” Paul said, on CNN.
The Kim Davis story raises a basic question: To what extent should we allow people to break the law if their religious views are in conflict with it? It’s possible to take that question to an extreme that even Senator Paul might find absurd: imagine, for example, a jihadist whose interpretation of the Koran suggested that he should be allowed to behead infidels and apostates. Should he be allowed to break the law? Or—to consider a less extreme case—imagine an Islamic-fundamentalist county clerk who would not let unmarried men and women enter the courthouse together, or grant marriage licenses to unveiled women. For Rand Paul, what separates these cases from Kim Davis’s? The biggest difference, I suspect, is that Senator Paul agrees with Kim Davis’s religious views but disagrees with those of the hypothetical Islamic fundamentalist.
The problem, obviously, is that what is sacred to one person can be meaningless (or repugnant) to another. That’s one of the reasons why a modern secular society generally legislates against actions, not ideas. No idea or belief should be illegal; conversely, no idea should be so sacred that it legally justifies actions that would otherwise be illegal. Davis is free to believe whatever she wants, just as the jihadist is free to believe whatever he wants; in both cases, the law constrains not what they believe but what they do.
In recent years, this territory has grown murkier. Under the banner of religious freedom, individuals, states, and even—in the case of Hobby Lobby—corporations have been arguing that they should be exempt from the law on religious grounds. (The laws from which they wish to claim exemption do not focus on religion; instead, they have to do with social issues, such as abortion and gay marriage.) The government has a compelling interest in insuring that all citizens are treated equally. But “religious freedom” advocates argue that religious ideals should be elevated above all others as a rationale for action. In a secular society, this is inappropriate.
The Kim Davis controversy exists because, as a culture, we have elevated respect for religious sensibilities to an inappropriate level that makes society less free, not more. Religious liberty should mean that no set of religious ideals are treated differently from other ideals. Laws should not be enacted whose sole purpose is to denigrate them, but, by the same token, the law shouldn’t elevate them, either.
In science, of course, the very word “sacred” is profane. No ideas, religious or otherwise, get a free pass. The notion that some idea or concept is beyond question or attack is anathema to the entire scientific undertaking. This commitment to open questioning is deeply tied to the fact that science is an atheistic enterprise. “My practice as a scientist is atheistic,” the biologist J.B.S. Haldane wrote, in 1934. “That is to say, when I set up an experiment I assume that no god, angel, or devil is going to interfere with its course and this assumption has been justified by such success as I have achieved in my professional career.” It’s ironic, really, that so many people are fixated on the relationship between science and religion: basically, there isn’t one. In my more than thirty years as a practicing physicist, I have never heard the word “God” mentioned in a scientific meeting. Belief or nonbelief in God is irrelevant to our understanding of the workings of nature—just as it’s irrelevant to the question of whether or not citizens are obligated to follow the law.
Because science holds that no idea is sacred, it’s inevitable that it draws people away from religion. The more we learn about the workings of the universe, the more purposeless it seems. Scientists have an obligation not to lie about the natural world. Even so, to avoid offense, they sometimes misleadingly imply that today’s discoveries exist in easy harmony with preëxisting religious doctrines, or remain silent rather than pointing out contradictions between science and religious doctrine. It’s a strange inconsistency, since scientists often happily disagree with other kinds of beliefs. Astronomers have no problem ridiculing the claims of astrologists, even though a significant fraction of the public believes these claims. Doctors have no problem condemning the actions of anti-vaccine activists who endanger children. And yet, for reasons of decorum, many scientists worry that ridiculing certain religious claims alienates the public from science. When they do so, they are being condescending at best and hypocritical at worst.
This reticence can have significant consequences. Consider the example of Planned Parenthood. Lawmakers are calling for a government shutdown unless federal funds for Planned Parenthood are stripped from spending bills for the fiscal year starting October 1st. Why? Because Planned Parenthood provides fetal tissue samples from abortions to scientific researchers hoping to cure diseases, from Alzheimer’s to cancer. (Storing and safeguarding that tissue requires resources, and Planned Parenthood charges researchers for the costs.) It’s clear that many of the people protesting Planned Parenthood are opposed to abortion on religious grounds and are, to varying degrees, anti-science. Should this cause scientists to clam up at the risk of further offending or alienating them? Or should we speak out loudly to point out that, independent of one’s beliefs about what is sacred, this tissue would otherwise be thrown away, even though it could help improve and save lives?
Ultimately, when we hesitate to openly question beliefs because we don’t want to risk offense, questioning itself becomes taboo. It is here that the imperative for scientists to speak out seems to me to be most urgent. As a result of speaking out on issues of science and religion, I have heard from many young people about the shame and ostracism they experience after merely questioning their family’s faith. Sometimes, they find themselves denied rights and privileges because their actions confront the faith of others. Scientists need to be prepared to demonstrate by example that questioning perceived truth, especially “sacred truth,” is an essential part of living in a free country.
I see a direct link, in short, between the ethics that guide science and those that guide civic life. Cosmology, my specialty, may appear to be far removed from Kim Davis’s refusal to grant marriage licenses to gay couples, but in fact the same values apply in both realms. Whenever scientific claims are presented as unquestionable, they undermine science. Similarly, when religious actions or claims about sanctity can be made with impunity in our society, we undermine the very basis of modern secular democracy. We owe it to ourselves and to our children not to give a free pass to governments—totalitarian, theocratic, or democratic—that endorse, encourage, enforce, or otherwise legitimize the suppression of open questioning in order to protect ideas that are considered “sacred.” Five hundred years of science have liberated humanity from the shackles of enforced ignorance. We should celebrate this openly and enthusiastically, regardless of whom it may offend.
If that is what causes someone to be called a militant atheist, then no scientist should be ashamed of the label.
Lawrence M. Krauss is the foundation professor and director of the Origins Project at Arizona State University, and the chair of the board of sponsors of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. His books include “The Physics of Star Trek” and, most recently, “A Universe from Nothing.”

| Looking back, I can see that it's been awhile...a LOOOONG while. So long, in fact, that the last thing I posted was about Edward's 14th birthday in....February. Gulp. SO much has happened. Good, bad, easy, fun, hard. My brain has nearly popped with it all. I'm good at giving out advice about savoring the moments, slowing down, yadda, yadda.... But it's hard to take your own advice, huh?
So here's a quick recap. I'll post more with photos after this. I think I just need to unload my brain.
Since February...
Edward had his first Keystone Exam. Emily was accepted to Albright College and won a Shirk Scholarship. We coached Ethan's Spring U8 soccer team. Both older kids went with friends to the prom. Emily graduated from high school. Edward finished 9th grade. Emily got her first good job (after a failed first bad job complete with an office full of e-cigarettes). We renewed her permit, and Emily started learning to drive in earnest. We switched Edward to 21st Century Cyber School. He started 10th grade. Emily developed a type of seizure similar to epilepsy. (We're still investigating.) Edward started school and his second year of high school soccer. We moved Emily into....college! (Eeek!) Ethan finished 2nd grade. And Stuart was accepted into the continuing education program at Albright College to finish his bachelor's of science degree.
Now, everyone is completely and utterly....overwhelmed!
It's amazing. We did manage to squeeze in a trip to Knoebel's with my parents, an overnight trip to Chincoteague/Assateague Islands, and our annual day of Camp Woohoohaha! But it was a tight squeeze. (And despite the millions of bites we all sustained while visiting the islands, all three kids were trying to figure out how to move down there. *wink-grin*)
So there you have it. A recap in one or two paragraphs. And there it is....my brain unloaded...I think. | CULTURE & ARTS |

| With the summer's big security conferences over, now is a good time to take a look back on automotive security. With talks about attacks on Chrysler, GM and Tesla, and a whole new Car Hacking village at DEF CON, it's becoming clear that autosec is a theme that isn't going away.
Up until this year, the main theme of autosec has been the in-vehicle network. This is the connection between the controllers that run your engine, pulse your anti-lock brakes, fire your airbags, and play your tunes. In most vehicles, they communicate over a protocol called Controller Area Network (CAN).
An early paper on this research [PDF] was published back in 2010 by The Center for Automotive Embedded Systems Security,a joint research effort between University of California San Diego and the University of Washington. They showed a number of vulnerabilities that could be exploited with physical access to a vehicle's networks.
A number of talks were given on in-vehicle network security, which revealed a common theme: access to the internal network gives control of the vehicle. We even had a series about it here on Hackaday.
The response from the automotive industry was a collective "yeah, we already knew that." These networks were never designed to be secure, but focused on providing reliable, real-time data transfer between controllers. With data transfer as the main design goal, it was inevitable there would be a few interesting exploits. | SCIENCE & TECH |

| So this week I have been addicted to Periscope. Many really fantastic artists and galleries are using it to show off their work, so I have decided to join in the fun. You can find me on there with the user name @marniepitts. I think the app needs some improvements (for example this latest video of mine is rather pixelated fro the first 20 seconds). I am using it to talk about this new series of works I am making and to show you my process. I also have got some questions about what I do that I have been answering. The cool thing is they delete the broadcasts after 24 hours so although I am nervous about making them that somehow makes me feel better!. | ENTERTAINMENT |

MILWAUKEE — Many things may come to mind when you think of a fitness boot camp — and a lot of them may be pretty intimidating. The name alone can send people in the other direction.
But Margaret Erhart, 53, takes the Metabolic Circuit Conditioning boot camp at Fuel Up. Go! Fitness & Nutrition on Saturday morning for one reason.
“When I haul my 40-pound bag of kitty litter in from the store down to the basement, I can do that,” she said during a 10-second rest between exercises at her boot camp.
She can feel her strength when she cleans out her gutters.
She does it for functional fitness.
And this is why gyms and workout facilities with classes like boot camp are worth considering.
Yes, some work out to try to look good in a swimsuit and others work out for a certain number on the scale. But what often gets overlooked is how much stronger and healthier we are while managing everyday tasks because of this style of intense interval training.
Most boot camp classes follow a basic format in a 45-minute group exercise class — meaning there’s at least a handful of participants, and often a lot more — led by a trainer.
The trainer sets up stations with a different exercise at each one. Some are cardiovascular, others work on upper- and lower-body weight training, and others are for core. Each exercise is performed for 45 seconds (this can vary from 30 to 90 seconds). Then there is a short rest while everyone switches and rotates to the next station.
The goal is to go as hard as possible for those short bursts.
This 45-second, 45-minute workout formula appeals to the masses for a lot of reasons.
It’s efficient.
“If you don’t have a lot of time, this is a perfect thing for you to do,” trainer Lauren House said. “We go hard for 45 minutes, and at the end people are drained.
“We’ll usually have eight stations, and you’ll go through each four times. Metabolic means it will burn a lot — in a little bit of time.”
You probably don’t need more than a 45- to 60-minute workout every day.
“Males and females, we both have testosterone,” said Eric Gramza, the owner and trainer of Fuel Up. Go! “Testosterone is that anabolic, building component that we all want to have released when we’re exercising, when we’re strength training.
“Those basically peak and fall within 60 minutes. So, unless you’re training for an athletic event that’s going to take longer than 60 minutes, you don’t need to exercise for longer than that.”
Accountability. Group exercise classes create a team atmosphere.
“They do a lot of these classes with partners,” Erhart said. “There’s a lot of teamwork. So that will get you motivated to get here. You’re obligated to the group, to each other.”
Good coaching.
Some days the only motivation you’ll have is to show up for class. Just get there. If you have a good trainer, that’s all the motivation you’ll need.
“The leaders, Lauren and Eric, I think they care passionately about each of us,” said Erhart, a softball player, cyclist and kayaker. “What we’re doing, what the program is doing for us, and that we attend.”
You don’t want your “truck tires spinning in the mud.”
Many people can go work out on their own. But there are some exercises that are best to do with the right form, both to avoid injury and to get the most benefit from doing it. A watchful trainer will check to see that we’re doing it right. Is the caboose down on a plank? Are the elbows tucked in on triceps and biceps work? Are we doing squats the best way to protect our knees?
“People can go to the gym for 60 minutes and look at what others are doing, or do something they’ve seen on the internet. Sure that’s better than sitting on the couch,” Gramza said. “But it can be like truck tires in the mud.
“You can hammer on the gas and go 75 miles an hour. But you’re just spinning your wheels and not really going anywhere.
“You’re making the time investment. You might as well get the most out of it. Exercise is really a science.”
Gramza and House are certified by the National Strength and Conditioning Association and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialists, qualifications that help them teach their clients the best, safest and most efficient way to work out.
This is a proactive step in your long-term health. It is an investment.
Tom Burzynski, 50, and his wife Marsha, 53, have been doing this Metabolic Circuit Conditioning with Gramza for nine years.
“We took a look at friends and family members who had a lot of health issues and were older than us,” Tom said. “We decided that we didn’t want to have poor health as we got older. We wanted to stay healthy, not put on as many pounds — but it really helps your mental outlook, too. We tell Eric and Lauren we could have a really bad day, but we always leave here in a better mood.”
It helps in coming back from injury.
Amy Jacobs, 31, a regular Ragnar Relay runner, has used this boot camp for the last year as a way to diversify her rehabilitation from a torn anterior cruciate ligament. She does the high-intensity, interval training class on Thursdays and the Metabolic Circuit Conditioning on Saturdays.
“It’s helping me get back in to shape,” Jacobs said. “I use to run a lot of half marathons and I’m trying to get back into that.”
It’s very hard to get bored in these classes.
“No. No way. They’re always different,” Jacobs said.

| Volkswagen (VOW) is now trading at $118, down 53% from it's 52-week high of $254, with a P/E ratio of 5.5. The penalty from the emissions scandal could be as high as $18B, but I expect a company such as Volvo, which does in excess of $200B per year in sales, will eventually recover and bounce back from this event. What are your thoughts? Does this news present a good buying opportunity and is now a good time to jump in and pick up some shares? | FINANCE & BUSINESS |

In 2011, “Game of Thrones” began playing on American television, and four years later, it’s still all that anyone talks about. What’s so great about this medieval fantasy? Why would such a gory show become so popular?
To some, it’s not about the story so much as it is about the characters. “Game of Thrones” has a large cast of excellent actors playing families fighting for the throne in the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. Especially popular is actor Peter Dinklage who plays the intelligent and funny Tyrion Lannister. The show is based on the book “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R. R. Martin.

Brian: I love that show. Are you thinking of watching the show or reading the books?
Sara_R: Watching the show. I probably don’t have the patience to read the books. Brian: There are a couple of books and they’re really long, so that is the case, but the show is amazing. Sara_R: I’ve heard it’s amazing, but I’m worried that it may be too gory for me.
Brian: It’s… I wouldn’t necessarily say gory. It is a very violent show. But if you like the fantasy feeling and that medieval spirit, it’s definitely in that realm.
Sara_R: I do. And I like the idea of power-hungry people fighting each other for the throne.
Brian: They are just so many characters to follow. It can be a little intimidating at first, remembering who everyone is and where they’re from… all the different names and places… but it really gets worth it if you can get past the first three episodes. I think you’ll really start to enjoy it.
Sara_R: OK, OK. I’ll try it. Do you want to watch it with me?
Brian: Yes. This will be my third time watching all of them, but I am down to do that.

| Formidable as fire
Wanton scourge of self's desire
Unmistaken cry of passion
Leading oft to word, then action
Grave the outcome known one day
Yet all as sheep have gone astray
Return, return, the foe, the friend
From wandering forth to journey's end
Make a home by heir, by choice
As you hear the Father's voice
Whispering, haunting, beckoning call
Arms outstretched to welcome all

| Ok everyone, I am back to touch base on some of the technical details going on here at Obsidian Portal. I spoke with the tech team earlier today to get an update, and discuss some of the specifics about what all is happening. So, lets get right into it:
BUILD ENVIRONMENT, BUG FIXES, FEATURES – IMPORTANT
So, the first thing we need to talk about that I mentioned in our last tech update is the build environment (this impacts all users on a system-wide level). As I previously mentioned, this problem has to be addressed in order for us to start rolling out our fixes and updates. As we previously advised this is in testing, which is where it still remains though progress has been coming along. I want to touch on this aspect in more detail to help everyone try to better understand what is happening.
Obsidian Portal is actual a very complex and customized system built on a language known as Ruby on Rails. Due to this high level of complexity we have found that making modifications to one area can greatly and negatively impact other areas as well. This requires us to do some rigorous testing in order to ensure that when we roll this major fix out we don’t cause a slew of new problems for folks. We have cleaned a series of underlying problems here, but there is still more to be worked through before we can confidently roll this out.
There is both good and bad to consider about this. The bad is fairly obvious, the time that it is taking to roll this out and actually see some improvements and changes happening around here. The good side is less obvious, but a lot of the assorted issues we are seeing reported by members are likely directly caused by this issue and this one major fix alone should make a noticeable impact on the site for everyone involved. This ranges from registration issues, login and logout issues, email issues, and more.
In conclusion on this one, it is a little hard to properly express everything as our community ranges greatly in their level of technical knowledge and a lot of the details would just go over the heads of many (in some cases the details tech has go beyond me). I am more than willing to field any direct questions you may have on this as I know it is a source of frustration for many. As many will attest I try to be very prompt about responding to anything the community brings forward or am more than willing to try and find out the details if I don’t have them right at that moment.
STATUS: In Testing, presently working on some issues discovered in regards to registration and login and logout routines.
OP REFORGED: STRETCH GOALS
This part is more of a reminder than anything for everyone. As we announced in the last update, the remaining stretch goals that have not rolled out (Natural Editing and File Storage Locker) are pretty well set. The Natural Editing is completely done and just waiting for technical resolutions, while the File Storage Locker is mostly completed (we noticed a couple things that were missed on this after some further review and are going to be working those in for a proper release).
Along with this we have some updates to the Character Name Generator feature that was rolled out as well, expanding the options we will have available in there for a quick character naming. I will be talking to tech very soon about seeing if we can get our Community Council into the testing area to see that the features are where they need to be and to see if they can try and break it before we roll it out. We will have some more updates on this soon so keep your eyes open.
STATUS: Natural Editing Complete and File Storage Locker in final iteration, awaiting technical resolution and Community Council testing.
INNER COUNCIL
We have officially announced the Inner Council , though we are still in some talks with this as well.
First up on the list we have Belrathius as our new Community Ambassador , he will be working with me directly to improve the issue reporting processes here on OP as well as helping to compile up various issues that may have fallen through the cracks over the years. Beyond this he has been going above and beyond and conduct testing on some of these outstanding issues to provide additional details to help our tech team find the core of these issues. He has many great ideas that he has already been tossing my way, and I am looking forward to continuing to work with him on things moving forward.
Next up we have ChainsawXIV taking up the title of Keeper of the Sheets . For anyone who is not aware, the Dynamic Sheet Templates (DSTs) that are featured here at OP have always been historically created and managed by our amazing community. ChainsawXIV has been handling approvals on the DSTs for some time now, and has been generous enough to agree to keep facilitating the community in this capacity. This is something that requires a bit of technical knowledge in order to do, and he has shown that he has the skills in spades over the years. I have some plans in mind here as well that I will be discussing with him as we move forward on how we might be able to enhance this feature of OP. It will be good to be working with him as well as we move forward to the future of OP.
I am looking to get these folks some access to our testing area here shortly as well, which will allow them to try and break and maim the new features and fixes before they go public so we can have an even smoother integration process moving forward. This will require us to get a bit further with the core errors that are tying things up, but as soon as we are there I will be making moves on this. I also have some ideas in mind on how we could potentially expand this council in the future if things work out as expected, as we had a lot of names and skill sets that were suggested by the community when we initially announced the concept.
T-SHIRT CONTEST
The voting for the T-Shirt Contest is officially closed. We will be tallying up the votes for this and announcing a winner in an upcoming update later this week. Thanks to everyone who voted, submitted extra feedback, and participated!
That is all for now, keep on gaming!

| Kanye West isn’t playing around.
In preparation of the Yeezy Season 2 presentation tomorrow, the 38-year-old rapper/designer made sure to provide each of his models a non-disclosure form. Not a complete shocker considering how secretive he’s been about the show’s details; however, some of the models claim his conditions are insane.
According to the Mirror, the form bans all Yeezy Season 2 models from discussing him, his wife Kim, or any other member of the Kardashian family. If they do open their mouths, they could face a hefty lawsuit.
“Kanye’s hacked off some really high-profile models by asking them to sign the agreement, particularly because it stated that he could sue them for up to $10 million if they spoke out about him,” a source told the Mirror. “It’s a ridiculous amount and some models flat out refused […] He’s not considered a great talent—everyone knows his show is just a media frenzy, so some girls would rather not be associated with him.” | ENTERTAINMENT |

Country: Greece, Syrian Arab Republic, Turkey, World
Athens, Greece | AFP | Saturday 9/19/2015 - 06:33 GMT A five-year-old Syrian girl was found dead on Saturday and several other refugees were believed to be missing when their boat sank in an attempted crossing from Turkey to Greece, the state ANA agency reported. The Greek coastguard rescued another 13 people and was looking for other survivors, the agency said. The accident occurred north of the island of Lesbos, one of the Greek islands that have seen a heavy influx of refugees from war-torn Syria this year. Many have perished trying to cross the Aegean Sea in search of a better future in Europe. Earlier this month, harrowing pictures of three-year-old Syrian refugee Aylan Kurdi, whose body was found washed up on a Turkish beach after the boat carrying his family to the Greek island of Kos sank, caused an outpouring of emotion around the world, pressuring European leaders to step up their response to the refugee crisis. The body of another four-year-old Syrian girl washed up on a beach in western Turkey on Friday. Migrants have[...]

| I wonder if the comments by the Arsenal captain Mikel Arteta this week were intended as a gentle reminder to Arsene Wenger that the Spaniard is fit and ready for action and has been itching to get back on the pitch for some time. Arteta has been a sub in two Premier League games and the Community Shield win over Chelsea, but is it time for him to start a game? The coming week provides the Arsenal boss with two very good opportunities to get his captain back in the starting XI, with Stoke City at home and then Dinamo Zagreb away. For me the game at the Emirates stadium on Saturday looks like it is made for Arteta, as his greater passing and creative ability will probably be more valuable to the Gunners as we look for a vital win and the Potters will be happy with a point. I can perfectly understand why Wenger has stuck with Francis Coquelin as our deep lying midfielder so far, because the young Frenchman has been fantastic. Arsenal do need more though, and we cannot rely on him to play every single game. Surely it would be better to start sharing the load sooner rather than later and start each player in the games most suited to their talents. So Chelsea away next weekend is nailed on for Coquelin but with two games before that in the same week, Arteta must be in line for a first competitive start since last November. Would you bring him back for Stoke or wait for the midweek Champions League game in Zagreb? | SPORTS |

| Watch: Chilling Trailer For Sundance Winning Documentary '(T)error' By Cain Rodriguez | The Playlist Thu Sep 24 12:24:00 EDT 2015 0 0 0 In the fourteen years following September 11th, 2001, approximately 500 suspects have been arrested for terrorist activity within the United States with somewhere around 60% of the arrests predicated upon the use of FBI informants. A new documentary, “(T)error,” directed by Lyric R. Cabral and David Felix Sutcliffe, follows an actual FBI informant as he takes part in an active FBI case in progress, all without informing his FBI superiors about the filmmakers following him. The first trailer for the film has arrived online (via Indiewire) and is a great first look at the stark and chilling documentary.
We caught the Eugene Jarecki-executive produced film at Hot Docs where we gave it an A-grade review, comparing it to the similarly revealing and shocking “Citizenfour” and ultimately calling the film “a gripping parallel investigation of illegitimate counter-terrorist stratagems that not only considers the moral consequences of informing, and the wider troubling landscape around it, but does so from a deeply intimate and remarkable perspective.”
“(T)error” opens in limited release on October 7. Watch the evocative trailer below.

| OSCEOLA — Two southeast Missouri men are charged in the kidnapping of a 13-year-old northeast Arkansas girl whom they met on Facebook. Twenty-five-year-old Hank Crawford of Steele, Mo., faces kidnapping and rape charges. Sixty-three-year-old Mickey Young, also of Steele, is charged with kidnapping. The Jonesboro Sun reported that the teen's grandparents called police after her grandfather saw the girl get into a car with out-of-state plates and disappear. Court documents say the grandfather also found a series of Facebook messages dating back to August between the teen and Crawford. Osceola police said officers arrested the men when they returned the girl two days later. Police said Crawford admitted having sex with the girl. Both men are scheduled to appear in court Sept. 25. | LAW & CRIME |

| TweetMONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2015|Posted by: Don Saas
Probably the second biggest song of Sting's solo career (right behind "Fields of Gold") was "Englishman in New York." On the one hand, the song sort of makes me laugh. Here's Sting -- one of the most beloved rock stars in the world -- and his biggest existential concern is that he feels out of place in another city. It's not the sentiment. It's the "I'm an alien. I'm a legal alien. I'm an Englishman in New York" chorus. It just seems so...melodramatic. But as a Southerner who's lived in New York for six months now, I finally get it. Without the cultural touchstones you hold dear, you can feel adrift no matter how comfortable and happy you otherwise are. And with their sophomore LP, The Lonely Wild may be from LA but their rustic, rock-tinged Americana sound transports right back to the hollows and countrysides I called home. Chasing White Light is an apt name for the record. The notion of heading towards white light is often associated with death but what is death but another journey in our experience of life. The universe is ~10 billion years old. Our conscious sense of identity exists for 70 years on average. That means we exist for 0.0000007% of the time the universe has existed. But despite the fact that we are a heart palpitation in the continued existence of the universe, life can be transcendent. There are moments of beauty worth chasing for this brief amount of time that we're around, and with their folk-rock, southern-fried sound, The Lonely Wild tap into that indomitable element of the human spirit to experience and simply exist. It's Monday but Chasing White Light is the sort of album like last year's criminally under-rated Into the Wide by Delta Spirit that makes you feel alive by virtue of hearing the plaintive cries of its vocals and the uplifting swells of its strings. From opening track "Snow" to closing track "Echo," Chasing White Light refuses to slow down or slip into a sonic rut. Whether it's the Lone Bellow-esque opening number to the more ragged and rock-fused "Hunted," the record switches back and forth between more deliberately paced and high energy tracks without sacrificing the general larger than life feel of the record. The Lonely Wild weren't on my radar at all before this album was sent our way, and now I'm looking forward to the next time they come to this city. I want to be at that show. You can pre-order Chasing White Light due out 10/2 here.
