[ ♪INTRO ].
Staphylococcus aureus is a common bacterium that's naturally found on our skin. But when things go wrong, it can cause serious and potentially fatal infections.
Staph kills an estimated 30,000 people a year in the United States from hospital-acquired infections alone. Which is why a staph vaccine could be a big deal for the healthcare system. And this week, researchers published some promising results.
Part of what makes staph so nasty is that it lives peacefully alongside us — right up until it gets into the wrong parts of the body. When it gets into the body, like through a cut or injury, it can multiply out of control, releasing toxins, killing cells, and devouring the nutrients that are left behind. It can be hard to treat too.
Multiple strains of staph have picked up resistance to various antibiotics. And even those that haven't can band together to create defensive patches known as biofilms, which can fend off antibiotics or attacks from the immune system. Which is why a vaccine could be really great news.
This week, in the journal Infection and Immunity, researchers reported a vaccine that significantly improved to the outlook of mice and rabbits infected with staph. More than 80% of mice survived if they had received the vaccine previously, compared to less than 10% of controls. And the immunized animals were better able to totally clear the bacteria from their bodies.
The key development was targeting the right mix of factors. Staph bacteria are a very variable bunch. They might make different proteins at different times.
Different strains might have different genetics too. This is a problem, because vaccines, in essence, equip our immune systems with the ability to recognize proteins or other factors made by or attached to invaders. If you put all your hopes on one factor and the bacteria doesn't produce it, you're out of luck.
Because of this, scientists have been looking at a multi-pronged approach. This new vaccine was developed by building off a previous, promising attempt that was able to put together four targets and get rid of the biofilms — but not the free-swimming form of the bacteria. This new vaccine adds a fifth target to go after those swimmers.
And it seems to have worked, if the results in animals are anything to go by. We don't yet have a staph vaccine approved for humans. But the scientists hope this research could lead to one, giving doctors and surgeons another tool to combat hospital-acquired illnesses.
Not to mention treating cases in the wild. But on to way more important news than a potentially life-saving vaccine: HOLODECKS. Researchers in the UK and Japan have created a kind of tactile, 3-dimensional display that's able to be seen, heard, and felt.
Called the Multimodal Acoustic Trap Display, the device is technically not a hologram — those work a little differently. Instead, it's what's known as a volumetric display. It's based on the principle of acoustic tweezers, which is a way to move or levitate small objects using sound waves.
Sound waves are waves of high and low pressure moving through a fluid, such as air. But they can be trapped to become what's known as a standing wave, which essentially creates pockets of high and low pressure in the air. . If the pressure is high enough, it can counteract gravity, exerting enough force to make tiny objects float.
Now researchers have figured out a new way to turn this phenomenon into a way to display information. They built one of these acoustic levitators from hundreds of tiny speakers, then suspended a tiny, 1 millimeter polystyrene bead above it. It was able to sit there, trapped in mid-air by ultrasonic sound waves too high for human hearing.
By shining red, blue, or green light on it, they could create a tiny, floating, colored point in space. That's cool, but then they made it move. And that's when the real show started.
The computer running the device could adjust the sound waves, making the glowing bead zip around in the air. The movement was fast enough that it could create the images of an object. The end result is a three-dimensional color image, like a floating butterfly or globe.
What's more, the same speakers can also be used to play sounds. Like, ones we can hear. And by creating multiple of these acoustic traps, they can float multiple beads.
Or, by hitting a specific frequency that activates the vibration sensors in our skin, they could create a sensation of pressure. You couldn't literally pick up the object being displayed, but there was some tactile feedback. The end result was a display you could see, hear, and feel — way ahead of the 24th century.
Besides the cool factor, the authors suggest this kind of tech could be used to manipulate small particles in a lab. But it's still a work in progress — it won't be in your living room tomorrow. So while we might not be at "Holodeck" levels yet — and "Volumetric Display-o-deck" might not have the same ring to it — it's still pretty cool.

Fashion, Sustainability
5 reasons why fast fashion isn't great
It's likely you're not at fault.
words by: Kayla Carmicheal
You may have heard statements like "Yo, fast fashion is bad," right? Well, I'll explain, but it makes sense. Firstly, I want to make it clear that the issue of fast fashion's questionable ethical principles are not because people can only afford to shop from those brands.
If you don't know, fast fashion is a term that describes the fashion companies that quickly crank out runway designs at a low cost to capitalize on demand. Here's how fast fashion is, yes, unethical, but again—the culprits are different than some may think.
1. Promotes overconsumption
Fast fashion directly contributes to overconsumption. And while shopping addictions have been around forever, there's nothing quite like the "Haul" video. 10 years ago, it was YouTube. Then Instagram. Now, it's TikTok—where content creators post videos of an egregious amount of clothes they got from a brand for views and clout.
How many sneaker drops have you seen where people buy the entire size run and share them on socials?
But, where does that extra clothing go? What happens when the trend dies out, and the buyer is stuck with clothes they never really wanted in the first place?
2. It's bad for the environment
Overconsumption leads to fashion waste. That's a fact. But not in large part due to the people who throw away their clothes as opposed to donating (please donate or resell your clothes!). Because mostly, it's due to corporations.
In a nutshell, here's how fast fashion directly contributes to the climate crisis: The methods used to make some of these clothes add to pollution and kill our oceans, heavily. If you want the breakdown, here's a study from Princeton, concluding that it takes 3,000 liters of water to make a single cotton shirt. Dye is toxic to oceans. And, 20% of wastewater worldwide is because of fast fashion.
3. Most companies have horrible conditions
Fast fashion companies treat their workers horribly. A study done by Emma Ross at George Washington University Law School found that of the 75 million factory workers worldwide, "less than 2% of them make a living wage."
"Many garment workers are working up to 16 hours a day, 7 days a week," the study continues. "The textile industry also uses child labor particularly because it is often low skilled, so children can be exploited at a younger age. Additionally, it's been going around TikTok that SHEIN employees have been sewing cries for help into clothes. SHEIN claims this is just an inaccurate translation, and while it could be, it's no secret that 1. SHEIN is one of the biggest fast fashion companies (v. $47 billion), 2. SHEIN steals designs, and 3. SHEIN treats employees horribly.
4. A lot of brands steal ideas and designs
Oh no, SHEIN's not the only fast fashion brand that steals the work of independent designers and brands. Off the top of my head, I can think of 3 I've seen just this year. And most of the time, the victims are designers of color.
Carrie Anne Roberts was stolen from by Old Navy. Zara steals from YEEZY. Urban Outfitters stole from the Navajo Nation. And that's just a few examples from this post written in 2018—and it's still completely legal. Crediting and compensating zero designers.
Sometimes, the stealing is due to overworked designers that are swamped with demands and bad working conditions. But it's up to corporations to provide their designers with conditions that help their creativity, not tear them down.
5. Wealthy people who can afford quality clothes don't buy them
SHEIN hauls are still popular, and a single video on TikTok can rack up at least 2 million views. We talked about why this overconsumption isn't great, but now wealthy people are buying thousands of dollars of clothes from a site where you can get 5 pieces for $40. Instead of buying quality clothes that will last them a long time and help indie brands, they thrift and run to fast fashion for clout.
This raises the price of clothes overall, so people who only have fast fashion companies to turn to when they want new clothes have to find out that they've been out-priced. They can't afford a brand they once depended on. If you don't believe me, go to Goodwill and look at the price of jeans. 3 years ago, it would've been about $7. Now? $19.99.
Fast fashion is essential for some people. Where else are people outside of the 1% supposed to get their clothing? This is why the debate over fast fashion is so polarizing. Along with the price barrier, fast fashion also has inclusive size ranges.
But I want to stress here that the boom of fast fashion isn't because of people who can only afford new clothes, or can only buy from certain brands, every once in a while. It's because of people who have the ability to make changes that would help our environment but don't.
Want to start shopping sustainably? This is what you need to know.

Pinpointing potential rosacea triggers can be challenging and may lead to a hard-to-remember list of seemingly incongruous foods like alcohol, chocolate, citrus and bell peppers. While these foods may seem disparate, there may be a logical explanation for why certain foods cause rosacea to flare, according to Dr. Rajani Katta, clinical assistant professor of medicine at Baylor College of Medicine and the author of Glow: The Dermatologist's Guide to a Whole Foods Younger Skin Diet.
In addition to the foods that should be avoided, Dr. Katta recommended rosacea patients incorporate eating more probiotics (yogurt, kefir and fermented foods) and prebiotics (legumes, vegetables and whole grains), pointing to studies that found high comorbidity rates between gastrointestinal diseases and rosacea.

Flip Out! — компьютерная игра в жанре головоломка, разработанная Gorilla Systems Corporation и опубликованная Atari для приставки Jaguar в 1995 году, а также Gametek UK в 1997 году для платформ DOS и Windows.

Описание

Игра проходит на планете Phrohmaj и включает 9 уровней, представляющих собой разные локации данной планеты, населённые странно выглядящими инопланетянами.

Суть игры заключается в том, чтобы разместить окрашенные плитки в правильные места на доске, поднимая плитки в воздух. В игре всегда присутствует на одну плитку больше, чем клеток на доске, так что как минимум одна плитка всё время должна находиться в подброшенном состоянии.

По мере продвижения по уровням, игра становится всё более сложной, так как приходится удерживать в воздухе большее число плиток и иметь дело с вмешивающимися в игру инопланетянами.

Восприятие

Обозреватели Game Zero отметили интересную концепцию игры, но отметили, что она является слишком лёгкой: достаточно сложными являются только трёхмерные уровни, появляющиеся ближе к концу игры. В числе достоинств игры была названа чёткая графика, плавное управление и неплохой звук.

В журнале Electronic Gaming Monthly, напротив, отмечалось, что графика является размытой и нечёткой. Обозреватель указывал, что хотя к игровому процессу надо привыкнуть, он достаточно быстро может наскучить, так как отсутствует достаточный стимул продолжить игру.

В обзоре GamePro указывается, что игра не далеко не в полном объёме использует графический потенциал консоли Jaguar. Обозреватель отмечает, что игра не так втягивает, как Tetris, но вполне способна увлечь тех, кому понравилась игра Klax.

We Need Whistleblowers - And Always Have
Jan 30 · By Linsey Pecikonis · Share
If you keep up on news that covers government transparency and free press, the past few weeks have been a mixed bag of sorts in terms of the ongoing crackdown on whistleblowers by the Obama Administration. And unfortunately, this mixed bag isn't improving the lives of whistleblowers on a whole.
For instance, on Monday, January 26th Jeffrey Sterling, a former CIA officer was convicted of leaking details of a covert mission to journalists and the media. But 5 days earlier the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a fired air marshal declaring that he was covered by the federal law which protects whistleblowing. If you want more information about these cases you should read these articles here, here, and here.
These cases are important as whistleblowing remains one of the core principles to a citizen's ability to provide checks and balances and expose wrongdoing or illegal activity when it is encountered. These courageous individuals who speak out often disclose serious information which range from consumer safety, environmental damage, professional misconduct, even corruption and child abuse. Whistleblowers even protect consumers from fraudulent behavior of hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, and even doctors. Most importantly, whistleblowers blow the whistle when our government is breaking the law or sidestepping its own policies. We should be grateful that whistleblowers are so moved that they speak out and alert us to these egregious activities.
The Obama administration has charged more people under the espionage act than all presidents combined, so it is now more important than ever that we protect whistleblowers and the value they serve. Far too often, whistleblowers face significant backlash - be it in their personal lives, professional lives, or in the media. There is significant personal strife that takes place after they've exposed information.
The information whistleblowers provide to the public is hugely important - as are the discussions that take place afterward. If it wasn't for Edward Snowden we may never have a complete picture of what kinds of information the NSA keeps on citizens and foreign nationals and for how long. If it wasn't for Chelsea Manning we may not have had a national discussion about our occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
On Tuesday, February 17th, Brave New Films along with Government Accountability Project will premiere War on Whistleblowers: Free Press and the National Security State at American University in Washington DC. The film has been updated from its original version and includes never before seen footage from an interview Robert Greenwald had with whistleblower Edward Snowden. Click here for more information on the event.
Whistleblowers effect great change in our country - we cannot lose the powerful impact they have on our course of history. Please donate $10 today to help us finish the film!

India Hicks Reveals Her Godfather Prince Charles's Sly Sense of Humor in a Touching Birthday Message
"I am lucky to have such a Godfather, but we all are lucky to have such a Prince amongst us," she wrote.
Prince Charles received numerous messages yesterday in honor of his milestone birthday, not only from his family, but also from well-wishers around the world. One particularly poignant note came from the Prince's goddaughter, designer India Hicks.
"Every birthday, every Christmas, a card and present would arrive from my Godfather. To begin with, they were signed: from 'your loving Godfather Charles', then they became 'your old Godfather Charles' and then 'your ancient Godfather Charles'. His Royal Highness might be celebrating a 70th birthday this year but, goodness, he is far from ancient," Hicks wrote in the caption of a photo of Prince Charles with her grandfather, Lord Mountbatten.
Mountbatten was a mentor to Prince Charles, and it's even been said that the Prince of Wales thought of "Uncle Dickie" like a grandfather.
"It takes a very fit mind, body and spirit to be engaged in so many charities and military organizations and to be an active patron to hundreds of foundations where his passion and dedication affects such change," Hicks continued in the post, highlighting the work the Prince's Trust does to support vulnerable youth and to offer job training and career education. She also calls attention to a specific young woman who had been the victim of sexual abuse and had received support from the Prince's Trust.
"This girl has now been given the skills she needs to live and learn and earn. She is one of hundreds of thousands whose lives have turned around because of the Prince's Trust and the Prince's personal vision when he founded the charity."
She then signed off with a sweet final thought. "I am lucky to have such a Godfather," she wrote. "But we all are lucky to have such a Prince amongst us."
India Hicks was a bridesmaid in her godfather Prince Charles's wedding to Princess Diana. Hicks is standing, front row, to Charles's right.
Hicks, who is a fashion designer and entrepreneur, has written of her godfather several times on Instagram. A few Christmases ago, she even shared photos of one of those cards where Charles signed off, "your incredibly ancient godfather." See that post, along with a charming anecdote about how the Prince of Wales sent her an English China gravy boat for her eighth birthday, below:

im thinking about using asymt of exp(x) to solve tetration.
perhaps not the best one , but sinh(x) comes to my mind.
if we take the half-iterate of sinh(x) by using taylor series , we get a good approximation of the half-iterate of exp(x) for x large.
if this good approximation is analytic in say [e^e,e^e^e^e] we could use that interval and take logs or exp of it to compute the half-iterate for [-oo,+oo] up to a relatively high precision.
in fact , i assume , we can choose our precision if the good approximation is entire , by using bigger intervals and taking logs of it ( as somewhat done above ).
thats basicly the idea , but as said maybe sinh(x) isnt the best , on the other hand its probably the easiest.
furthermore some want - and me too actually - that half-iterates have non-negative (2+n)th derivatives and strictly positive zeroth , first and second derivatives.
i didnt mention that all the above ofcourse is about functions going from R -> R , its obvious , but i just mention it to avoid potential confusion.
also every approximation of exp(x) should equal x at x = 0 only and be larger than id(x).
maybe you considered this once too ?
ps : showing that all derivatives are positive can sometimes be easy , but in general its hard , see for example " li's criterion " for the RH.

is there a problem with the half-iterate of sinh(x) ? does its taylor series radius = 0 ?
is the inner radius of the mittag-leffler = 0 ?
Quote: is there a problem with the half-iterate of sinh(x) ? does its taylor series radius = 0 ?
Its not really a problem, but indeed the convergence radius of the fractional iterates would be 0. This is usually the case with parabolic ( f'(p)=1, f(p)=p ) development. But its not really a problem as you can use the Levy iteration formula (which though may be too slow) or the Ecalle formulas for parabolic iteration.
ok , i found my silly mistake !!
i wrote sinh(x) but i meant 2*sinh(x) !!
so in the OP replace sinh(x) with 2*sinh(x).
and then we dont have a parabolic fixpoint !
and we do have an asympt.
(03/09/2010, 01:31 PM)tommy1729 Wrote: so in the OP replace sinh(x) with 2*sinh(x).
And what do you do with this asymptote then?
i take the half-iterate of it by using taylor series expanded at 0.
f(x) is a taylor series , f(f(x)) = 2*sinh(x).
f(x) is then a good asympt for the half iterate of exp(x) for large x.
i think it works for the real line.
however in the neighbourhood of the 2 fixed points of exp(x) it will fail.
so i assume a "button-like" region of correctness.
Actually Paul Lévy  showed how to obtain an iteration of e^x if we have an iteration of e^x-1.

This approach is actually equivalent to the "change of base" approach we considered here on the forum, also Walker  used a similar method. (But I am in the moment to lazy to detail how exactly they imply each other.) It is still open whether it is analytic, but it is proven to be infinitely differentiable in .

Shackbus is an opioniated, vendor independent specification on how to inter-connect devices within an amateur radio station.
Within an amateur radio station we have several devices which are interconnected, mostly through hard wired with cables. Some vendors have started to implement software interfaces, but they are mostly incompatible amongst each other. Either because they use different transportation protocols or have incompatible message protocols / formats.
Shackbus tries to solve this problem by providing common means of communication and interfaces. Shackbus is leveraging open source, industry proven protocols and services.
Shackbus is a collaborative effort and not owned by a person or commercial entity. The Shackbus specification is published under the very permissive MIT License.
For the transportation, Shackbus relies on Ethernet communications. However, instead of using raw TCP or UDP sockets, Shackbus uses at its heart the TCP based MQTT protocol. MQTT is a lightweight machine-to-machine (M2M)/ Internet of Things connectivity protocol. It was designed as an extremly lightweight publish/subscribe messaging transport.
All clients connect to a centralized MQTT Broker which is typically located (but doesn't necessarily) has to be in the Local Area Network.
Through the publish and subscribe architecture, connected clients publish and/ or subscribe to topics relevant for them. Wildcard subscriptions are possible.
Protocol Buffers is a programming language neutral, platform-neutral, extensible mechanizm for serializing structured data.
Protocol Buffers generates a low-bandwidth optimized binary representation of the serialized data. Due to the nature of it's binary format, different versions of the same message are still compatible with each other. In other words: There is no need for message versioning. This guarantees maximum compatibility amongst the different services.
All Shackbus messages can be found in the Shackbus ICD repository at Github.com.
There are many third party plugins available for other programming languages.

I never know what to say about Bob Sorenson. Mainly, because whatever I say, it won't be enough to explain why this actor, in the minds of so many, IS Phoenix theater
He may not be the greatest actor to perform in Phoenix – after all, John Barrymore tread the boards of a local stage back in the day – but he's damned good. No, better than that.
I was just beginning my journalism career in the Valley when he emerged from Arizona State University to begin his acting career. I feel as if I have grown up with him. The thing is, he was as memorable the first time I saw him as he is today. Some folks are born to be actors. That's our Bob.
He was noticeable from the first. Maybe that's why it's not surprising that in the late '80s and '90s, he seemed to be in every other play. Along with Kathy Fitzgerald, another luminary of the day, his name on the marquee assured producers of a healthy return on their investment.
Bob defines versatility. I remember turning to my wife, after seeing him in Brendan Behan's The Hostage at the fledgling Actors Theatre of Arizona, and saying, "This guy is going to be something!" That was a highly dramatic part and he nailed it. He's been equally dramatic in other roles (Actors Theatre's Orphans for one). It's just hard to get casting directors to remember that.
Mention Bob Sorenson and most people will say "Oh, the funny guy!" However good he is at dramatic parts, Bob is unquestionably a genius at comedy. It would take until next month to list my favorite evenings spent laughing at this guy, but The Mystery of Irma Vep was one them.

Joining forces with R. Hamilton Wright, he played a number of roles, male and female, with split-second costume changes that boggled the mind. I embarrassed myself by laughing so hard, I got the hiccups and had to leave the auditorium. Of course, that meant I had to see the show again. Believe me, not a problem.

One more ecstatic evening: Watching Bob as Sam, an actor paying the bills as a reservations clerk at an uber-trendy Manhattan restaurant in Fully Committed, at Arizona Theatre Company. It was a one-man show. To call it a one-man tour de force is understatement.
Eventually, Bob left the Valley to make his home in New York City. The good news is that, since making the switch, he has worked more often in the Valley than he has in the Big Apple. At least he will never have to worry about the next meal. I can guarantee you this, Bob Sorenson will never wear out his welcome in Phoenix.
In December, 2014, Bob worked on "Veep," playing Julia Louis-Dreyfus' White House doctor. He took a moment to pose with Hugh Laurie ("House") on the set. (Photo from Bob's Facebook page.)

COMMENTS ON BOB FROM HIS CONTEMPORARIES
"Bob is one of the great stage collaborators. He always comes in with ammunition. He always has an idea to try. He's always open to ideas from everyone – actors, directors, stage managers. He's always willing to try anything that might get a laugh." – Actor and director Cathy Dresbach (directed Bob in "The Wallace and Ladmo Show" and directed by Bob in Theatre Works' January 2012 production of "The Dixie Swim Club")
"Bob has an impeccable sense of timing. He's always on the mark. Always. Like a clock. There's never a question of whether Bob is going to be where he needs to be, and to be there for other actors." – – Actor, director and producer Judy Rollings, director of Arts, Education and Outreach at Herberger Theater Center; co-founder Actors Theatre and Theatre Artists Studio (directed Bob in "Orphans" for Actors Theatre)
"What's completely obvious to me is that Bob is the consummate professional. He's focused and totally dedicated to the work. If he was in it for himself, he wouldn't have gone so far. But he's always there for the story … and the work. Plus, he's the humblest guy I've ever worked with." – Actor and director Katherine Stewart, artistic director of Desert Rose Theatre (co-starred with Bob in "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" for Southwest Shakespeare Company).
"As writer of the Wallace and Ladmo play, I put Bob in a strange situation. As Pat McMahon, Bob was the straight man to the actors playing Wallace and Ladmo. But when Bob was playing Pat's crazy TV characters, Bob had to be the gag guy. And just like that, Bob could switch from being serious to funny." – Actor, director, playwright and producer Ben Tyler, playwright of "The Wallace and Ladmo Trilogy" and executive director of the Centennial Theatre Foundation.
DON'T LEAVE US, BOBBY
To this day, there are people who wonder why Bob moved to New York City when he had a thriving career. In this October 2000 interview with Arizona Republic theater critic Kyle Lawson, Bob explains it all.
Bob Sorenson leans forward, his elbows on the table, his hands, clasped prayerlike, resting against his nose.
It's a handsome nose. He recently paid thousands to make it so. Image is everything to an actor, especially one contemplating a move to New York.
"I've sold my furniture. I've given up my apartment. I'm a homeless gypsy," he sighs, absently rubbing the ridge of the new beak, which, of course, is no longer a beak.
Long the Valley's most bankable stage personality, Sorenson is something of a fool for love these days. New York is the home of Susan Cella, an actress he met at Arizona Theatre Company while he was in The Mystery of Irma Vep and she was in Side Man.
Contrary to the cliche, absence isn't making the heart grow fonder, just desperate — but it's Sorenson's luck that nothing ever works out the way he plans.
Shortly after the movers left, Cella signed for the national tour of Fiddler on the Roof. It means 10 months on the road. It's just as well. She wouldn't have spent much time with Sorenson.
He's accepted a contract from Arizona Jewish Theatre Company to direct December's I'm Not Rappaport. In January, he resurrects his role as Pat McMahon in The Wallace and Ladmo Show. After that, it's back to the director's chair for Phoenix Theatre's Steel Magnolias, which opens in February.
Then there's ATC's Art, which moves onto Center Stage at the Herberger Theater Center this week. In Yasmina Reza's Tony Award-winning comedy, Sorenson is Yvan, the man caught in the middle when friends turn on each other after one buys an all-white painting for a ridiculous amount and tries to pass it off as an artistic masterpiece.
"I'm such a whore," he says. "Show me a good part and I come running."
Sorenson is living the Valley actor's dream. He works constantly for ATC, the state's largest and most prestigious theater. The achievement is still rare enough to excite comment, though not nearly as rare as it once was.
Prior to the arrival of artistic director David Ira Goldstein in 1992, ATC did most of its casting out of Los Angeles or New York. Ironically, Sorenson was one of the few Valley actors who never took the company to task for its casting habits.
"I never figured they owed me anything," he says, "even if they did call themselves Arizona Theatre Company. If I got a job with them, I wanted it to be because I was as good as anyone they saw in New York or Los Angeles. I didn't want them to hire me just because they had to meet some local quota."
Serious stuff, this. Sorenson would rather talk about golf. It's a hobby verging on an obsession. A junior-high links champ in his native Tomah, Wis., he came west in 1975 in hopes of making the Arizona State University golf team.
"The definition of a pipe dream," he says, wryly.
Instead, he became an actor. By the early '80s, his was the most
recognizable name in local theater. It was a heady time, and the work knew no limits. One month a comedy, the next a challenging drama. Even by his stringent standards, his performances as aimless young drifters in Edward Albee's The Zoo Story and Lyle Kessler's Orphans were "pretty damn good."
It didn't last. Companies closed. Others hired new artistic directors. Sorenson's reputation as an edgy, risk-taking actor slipped away, almost without his noticing.
"One day, it dawned on me that the last seven things I had done had been painted in pretty broad comedic strokes," he says. "That can happen to an actor. There's a positive response to something and producers say, 'Look how popular that was; let's do something else that's popular.' "
It was the musical Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah, a revue based on Allan Sherman's songs, that gave him his first taste of the New York stage. After the premiere in Phoenix, director Michael Leeds brought Sorenson east to recreate his role.
"I loved New York, really did," the actor says, "and I realized that, yeah, I could fit in there. But the timing was wrong. Now, I think it's right."
It helps that Cella is established in the city. Her contacts mean he'll be able to walk through some doors that would be closed to most newcomers. But commitment is a bigger draw.
Since his divorce from Phoenix actress Linda DeArmond, Sorenson's personal relationships never have seemed to take root. The recent death of his father was a sobering reminder that, at 43, he might be missing something important.
"The great thing with Susan and me is that neither of us was looking," he says. "We were wonderfully blindsided. She's strong — and I've always understood the value of a strong woman. She's also confident in herself — which means I'll be able to pursue my dreams and career aspirations within the relationship."
He's been struggling to look serious. He loses.
"OK, so when did I know she was the one?" he asks, a grin overwhelming his face.
"It was when she said, 'Bob, I'd like to learn to play golf.' "

Steven Mastroieni was Hal, Richard Glover was Treat and Bob Sorenson was Phillip in the 1987 production of Lyle Kessler's "Orphans" at Actors Theatre of Phoenix. The play was performed in the company's old home in the Metropolitan Bank Building on Central Avenue.
In 2012, Max McQueen of the East Valley Tribune produced one of the finest interviews with Sorenson to appear in the local press.
"If actor Bob Sorenson were ever to have his own TV series, it would surely be titled, "Everybody Loves Bob."
And well it should be.
Dishing on fellow actors and directors is part of the territory in show business. And with 30 years on Valley stages under Sorenson's 34-inch belt, one would think someone somewhere would have some little itsy-bitsy gossip on the 54-year-old actor of stage, TV and film.
But there's no dirt to be found on one of the Valley's most popular entertainers of the past half century. Everybody, it seems, truly loves Bob.
In a cut-throat industry where few A-list performers enjoy even a decade of success, Sorenson is celebrating his 30th year entertaining local, regional and national audiences, mostly on stage. From his 1980 debut as a leading man in Tempe Little Theatre's "Play it Again, Sam" to his current starring role in Arizona Theatre Company's "God of Carnage," Sorenson has built a solid reputation as a local box-office draw and an actors' actor.
The latter accolade, he says, is due to bevy of encouraging and tough teachers.
"I was lucky to have two very special drama teachers back in Tomah, Wis. In junior high, it was Carol Bursinger, and in high school, it was Jym Clark. Both of them instilled in me early on that performing is a team sport. I've never forgotten that."
Although not quite the class clown as a kid, Sorenson says he was aware he had a "pretty decent" sense of humor. That self confidence, buoyed with a dream of being a performer, prompted Sorenson to leave small-town life behind in the mid-'70s and head west to Arizona State University to study communications and theater.
At ASU, Sorenson says he was lucky enough to find not one but five professors who not only nurtured his innate talents but shaped his healthy attitude toward acting.
From drama professor David Vining, Sorenson learned to "open up and be creative." From theater professors Bill Dobkin and Dan Witt, he honed his now well-known work ethic and professionalism. From communications professors Janet Elsea and Kristen Valentine, Sorenson gained a profound appreciation for the "whole story" and "a great respect for the word."
As with all aspiring actors, Sorenson worked odd day jobs while waiting for his career to take off. In the early 1980s, Sorenson was a much-in-demand food server at Phoenix's Pasta Sergio's, where you'd think he would have added some girth to his string-bean frame. That didn't happen. Talk about discipline.
"I had a serious talk with my lovely ex-wife Linda DeArmond (also an actress), and we agreed it was time to go for broke. I waited my last table in 1985, and I've been working professionally ever since," says Sorenson.
Actors Lab Arizona and Actors Theatre of Phoenix (ATOP) were Sorenson's first professional home bases.
Judy Rollings, an ATOP founder, remembers Sorenson's first audition: "He was wearing khaki pants and a white shirt. He looked kind of preppy. But he blew us all away. He became one of our first resident actors. The thing I most remember about Bob is that he's always consistent. You can count on him."
Rollings directed Sorenson in "Orphans," a heavy drama requiring him to play an emotionally challenged young man.
"That was quite a stretch for Bob, but he got it just right," she says.
Versatility is another of Sorenson's strong suits. He does comedy. He does drama. He's conquered musical comedy, even while not being the world's best song-and-dance man.
He's even succeeded at being a romantic lead – this from a lithe guy with a character actor's face.
Proof of Sorenson's flexibility and damn-the-torpedoes approach to theater was his willingness to play Arizona TV icon Pat McMahon in "The Wallace and Ladmo Show."
Ben Tyler wrote the 1999 stage homage to Arizona's much-loved, legendary kids TV show.
"Can you imagine how hard it would be to play someone who is still alive and who would be sitting on the third row watching you every night? That's tough, yet Bob took on that challenge," says Tyler.
Sorenson's fans are not limited to the Valley. He performs around the country in regional theater. In fact, he will reprise his "God of Carnage" role next spring at the San Jose Repertory Theatre in California.
"Bob is greatly in demand," says David Ira Goldstein, Arizona Theatre Company's artistic director. He's seen Sorenson's work in a "dozen or so shows" and continues to be amazed at the actor's ability to go from comedy to drama with the flip of some internal on-off switch.
"He's a chameleon who can do serious stuff and then turn around and do a wild comedy like 'The Mystery of Irma Vep.' Those kinds of actors are rare," says Goldstein.
"God of Carnage" requires Sorenson to be on all burners comically and dramatically.
In the Rick Lombardo-directed production of Yasmina Reza's Tony-winning play now at the Herberger, Sorenson is a supposedly button-down husband. But when he loses his cool, he loses it big.
"Reza is very good at using humor to unmask what people say they are and what they really are not too far beneath the surface," says Sorenson.
"Some people have the misperception that this is a heavy drama. True, it tackles relational and social issues. But it's loaded with laughs. It shows how, when our buttons are pushed, we quickly turn from civilized folk to cave men."
Speaking of civility, when Sorenson isn't on stage, he's golfing, a life-long passion that's a genuine stress reducer for him. For the past four summers, he's been a golf instructor at the Junior Golf Institute in Brooklyn, near his New York home.
He also has a home in Phoenix – not just to be close to work and friends and fun, but also to be smack-dab in the middle of golf country.
While Sorenson takes his show business career seriously, one gets the feeling he'd be perfectly content to spend the rest of his life on the links. Having a life outside of theater helps Sorenson keep a practical perspective on the ups and downs of life in show business.
"The secret to my success? First, it's perseverance. Secondly, it's a complete lack of cynicism. When you start being cynical because you can't get work, you're digging yourself into a hole. I refuse to do that."

A brain tumour is an intracranial solid neoplasm, a tumour (defined as an abnormal growth of cells) within the brain or the central spinal canal.
Brain tumours include all tumours inside the cranium or in the central spinal canal. They are created by an abnormal and uncontrolled cell division, usually in the brain itself, but also in lymphatic tissue, in blood vessels, in the cranial nerves, in the brain envelopes (meninges), skull, pituitary gland, or pineal gland. Within the brain itself, the involved cells may be neurons or glial cells (which include astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymal cells). Brain tumors may also spread from cancers primarily located in other organs (metastatic tumors).

Q: Checkout Headless Approach with Shopify? Looking for a way to have a full checkout process with the Shopify Graphql API.
But the concept don't allow it? The final step is then always a redirect to the web checkout page from Shopify.
There are two ways so far I understood.

*

*via cart graphql api

*via checkout graphql API

via Cart

*

*create Cart

mutation cartCreate {
  cartCreate {
    cart {
      # Cart fields
    }
    userErrors {
      field
      message
    }
  }
}

*get checkout url and redirect user

query checkoutURL($cartId: ID!) {
  cart(id: $cartId) {
    checkoutUrl
  }
}

checkoutUrl -> webcheckout page
via Checkout API

*

*create full checkout

mutation {
  checkoutCreate(input: {
    lineItems: [{ variantId: "Z2lkOi8vc2hvcGlmeS9Qcm9kdWN0VmFyaWFudC8xMzg3MDQ4MzI3NTc5OA==", quantity: 1 }]
  }) {
    checkout {

             quantity
           }
         }
       }
    }
  }
}

*redirect user again...
https://shopify.dev/api/examples/checkout#complete-the-checkout
Extract documentation from shopify.dev.
    Use the webUrl field to redirect the customer to Shopify's web checkout form.

    Complete the checkout using one of the following methods:
        Shopify card vault
        Stripe
        Spreedly

webUrl -> webcheckout page
These are no real headless approaches.

*

*Exists there any way to do real full cart -> checkout process without redirect to the shopify page?

*Is there a way to transform cart to checkout? Don't understand for what it is then finally the checkout api needed, if I can't do a checkout via the api for the user.

Restaurant Buzz
Gluten Free and Wicked Good Pizza
Amanda Zantal-Wiener
Bostonians are serious about three things: the Red Sox, a driver's right-of-way and, oddly enough, Italian Food. In fact, many within Beantown have a Kanye-West-Inspired motto: "Hey New York, I'm real happy for you and Imma let you finish, but Pizzeria Regina in the North End has the best pizza of all time!" Sadly, though, there's usually one group of individuals left out of the joke: those with celiac disease.
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that causes an intolerance of many wheat proteins, primarily gluten (read more about opting for a gluten-free lifestyle here). For years, those with celiac disease couldn't enjoy the same things as those without it: baked goods, pasta and, of course, pizza. In 2005, business partners Christopher Robbins and Jonathan Schwarz decided enough was enough and founded Stone Hearth Pizza: The Belmont, MA-based restaurant boasting one of the most diverse menus of gluten-free options.
Now open in three locations, Stone Hearth is, given the name, clearly best known for its pizza. The "GF" label is found throughout the menu, standing for both "gluten free" and "good friends," the latter of which is rooted in the founders' longtime friendship. Today, Chef Michael Ehlenfeldt's selection offers over twenty gluten-free appetizers, pizzas, pastas and desserts.
What's more, Stone Hearth is well known for its farm-to-table and sustainable practices, purveying dairy and produce from such local sources as Great Hill Dairy and Verril Farm. Even some of the beer selection is rumored to be gluten-free (see more GF beers here), and all are locally sourced from the likes of Harpoon Brewery and others. Whenever possible, organic ingredients are also used: Meatballs are made with organic, locally-raised beef, pasta dishes are served with organic bread. And patrons are given an option of having their pizza prepared with organic sauce.
As for the pizza's taste, the GF crust is indisputably delicious. In fact, several non-celiacs have said it to be preferential over the regular crust. Though neither Stone Hearth's website nor its menu directly cites which ingredients are used to make the GF crust, certain reviews have identified its base as rice flour; good news for those who can't or prefer not to consume soy or legumes (found in the common alternative chickpea flour).
One fact that Stone Hearth is quick to say, however, is that its kitchens are not entirely gluten-free, causing some concern that typical flours might come into contact with the GF options. But the staff is also quick to point out that the gluten-free crusts (as well as other GF menu items) are prepared and stored in the morning, keeping them isolated from wheat flours and other allergens.
With a majority of positive reviews to support it, the verdict is in: "I'm real happy for you and Imma let you finish…" Okay, the point is clear: Stone Hearth Pizza has earned its rank as one of the finest gluten-free, organic and environmentally conscious establishments in greater Boston.

Android Q's second beta embraces foldable phones, multitasking Bubbles
The new Bubbles feature aims to make multitasking better
By Cameron Faulkner@camfaulkner Apr 3, 2019, 3:24pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Android Q's second beta embraces foldable phones, multitasking Bubbles
Google released its second Android Q developer preview today for all Pixel phones. They're mostly under-the-hood tweaks, but the update also helps get apps and games ready for the first wave of foldable phones, and it brings along Bubbles, Google's new take on multitasking that looks similar to Facebook Messenger's Chat Heads, which could change how Android looks and works depending on how it's implemented.
See the animated GIF immediately above? That's Android Q's new foldable screen emulator for developers (and us) to see what today's apps and games might look like on actual foldable phones. Speaking of actual foldables, the emulator appears to target two rather familiar hardware configurations in particular: a 7.3-inch screen that folds down to 4.6 inches, and an 8-inch screen that folds to 6.6 inches. Those screen dimensions just so happen to match up with the Samsung Galaxy Fold and Huawei's Mate X.
Here's a look at Bubbles in Android Q's second beta
Meanwhile, Bubbles might end up being a pretty divisive change to Android Q, depending on how it plays out — it's a twist on multitasking that lets individual apps leave some floating bubbles on top of whatever else you're doing on the screen. The idea is that when you get a notification in, say, Messages, you'll be alerted by a Bubble and a keyboard will pop up so you can type a reply, but it won't totally obstruct the app you're using beneath it.
If that sounds familiar, it's probably because a bunch of individual Android apps already do the same thing, most prominently Facebook Messenger with its Chat Heads — but Bubbles isn't limited to messages. Google says that Bubbles can give users "a convenient view over ongoing tasks and updates, like phone calls or arrival times. They can provide quick access to portable UI like notes or translations, and can be visual reminders of tasks too." This could end up being a better solution for some than running apps in split-screen mode, but for others, it might be annoying. Google's actually already been experimenting with Bubbles in its Phone app, but this could make the idea go broader.
The Android Q beta has already made sharing things on social media and with your contacts faster and more intuitive, and now the share sheet interface can show a quick preview of what you're sending before you share it, potentially preventing you from sharing an embarrassing photo with your family. Sure, it's a relatively small quality-of-life improvement, but it's a boon for those who share a lot of stuff.
New gesture navigation wasn't detailed in the release notes, though 9to5Google found that the new beta actually has some revised controls for switching between apps. Similar to gestures introduced in the iPhone X, you can switch between apps by swiping to the left or right on the home button. It works in its beta form, but it's not pretty. Part of the Google search bar shows up every time you swipe instead of remaining hidden.
We expect Google to release at least one more Android Q beta before Google I/O kicks off on May 7th. But don't expect much in the way of buzzworthy features just yet; Google tends to save the more impressive announcements for the stage. If you want to download the beta, here's how to do it.


Game theory is a study of strategic decision making. It examines the possible outcomes of conflict situations where all persons involved try to maximize their individual benefits. One famous example of such a situation is the Prisoner's Dilemma: Two criminals are interrogated separately by the police. Should the criminals stay silent or cooperate with the police to serve the least possible sentence?

Michael Owen has praised Maurizio Sarri for the strong impact he has had at Chelsea FC since taking over this summer.
And the Italian gaffer has chose to swap skippers, with defender Gary Cahill no longer a sure-fire starter at Stamford Bridge.
Sarri went on to say whilst he is certainly hoping to be proven wrong, he thinks the likelihood of his side closing the gap on City is highly unlikely and that his aim is simply to improve his side, rather than chase the title.
"I have my idea, I have decided, but before telling you my decision I would like to speak to the players and the club", Sarri said.
"In this moment it's not possible so for the moment the captain is Azpilicueta".
"The last time I have spoken with him, he told me that he wants to play for another season".
Sarri made it clear upon his arrival at Chelsea that a new captain would be elected to replace Cahill.
Sarri has opened the door to the former England skipper joining his backroom team at Chelsea. I think this season is too soon, but I hope not.
"That was about a week ago".
"I don't know now the situation, but Chelsea is his home, of course".
"I don't know if there is a chance; he told me he wants to play". Because, as I said before, I want to give space to the young players.
"I am very happy to be here five years".

Run out-of-stock at one store while others have plenty? It's annoying! And your customer feels the same.
Now that you can see available stocks of other locations on your POS screen, it's easier to fix this situation. Have the stocks delivered from the other location to the customer's house later. Much better than a disappointing "sorry", right?
*Note: This feature is available in Magestore POS Professional & POS Enterprise.
Sometimes running out-of-stock is unavoidable, especially if you're managing inventory by yourself.
But instead of losing the sales & upset your customers, turn on Backorders function on our Retailer POS. Your customers can continue placing orders while you refill inventory & deliver to their home later.
Attractive incentives are important to retain customers; especially for price-sensitive shoppers. But offering it on either website or point-of-sale is not enough. Modern shoppers like to receive rewards for their loyalty wherever convenient for them.
With our Retailer POS for Magento 2.3, you have various options to treat your customers like queens and kings. How can they not love you & keep coming back to your store?
PWA is well-known for its reliability, regardless of the network state. This means on our Magento retail POS app, you can checkout normally even without internet. So you don't have to worry selling in trade shows or events, where the connection is often unstable. When you're back online, orders will be automatically synced to the system. Or, you can export unsynced orders into PDF right from the POS app menu & upload them manually.
Clear the way for customers paying you by accepting every way they want to pay. Loyal customers can even pay with what they get from your Loyalty programs (Gift card, Store credits or Reward points) if you have these modules of Magestore installed. More reasons for them to come back to your store soon.
Small businesses are vulnerable to theft losses by employees. Meanwhile, insurance don't usually cover theft of cash by an employee. So the loss is yours, without proper oversight.
Our POS is purpose-built for retailers with cash management by working-shift. You can see your cash balance anytime during a working shift with X-report or at the end of a day with Z-report. Each manual cash-in/out of the cash drawer requires a reason. You'll know your cash is safe and sound without standing by the counter all the time.
Order processing becomes fast and easy with hardware integrations. Find out more about hardwares supported for Magento Retailer POS app .
Wonder whether Magento Retail POS app is your solution?

Jonah's Gourd Vine
EPUB Trade PB
Enlarge Book Cover
Format: EPUB Trade PB
A story of love and community, written by the hand of Zora Neale Hurston, one of the 20th century's greatest authors, and a woman who truly understands her characters' motivations. This modern classic edition of Jonah's Gourd Vine features an updated cover and a P.S. section which includes insights, interviews, and more.
Jonah's Gourd Vine, Zora Neale Hurston's first novel, originally published in 1934, tells the story of John Buddy Pearson, "a living exultation" of a young man who loves too many women for his own good. Lucy, his long-suffering wife, is his true love, but there's also Mehaly and Big 'Oman and the scheming Hattie who conjures hoodoo spells to ensure his attentions. Even after becoming the popular pastor of Zion Hope where his sermons and prayers for cleansing rouse the congregation's fervor, he has to confess that though he is a preacher on Sundays, he is a "natchel man" the rest of the week.
And so in this sympathetic portrait of a man and his community, shows that faith and tolerance and good intentions cannot resolve the tension between the spiritual and the physical. That Zora Neale Hurston makes this age-old dilemma come so alive is a tribute to her understanding of the vagaries of human nature.

Private equity investment in African projects has gained recognition as a vehicle for international investors to reap opportunities on the continent. The executive chairperson of Elah Capital, Anesu Machaba, argues in this article that there is need to instil corporate governance and transparency in African portfolio companies.
Africa is increasingly faced with disconcerting disparities in wealth between the haves and the have nots. This has created the proverbial bubble, which when enhanced by the current global economic crisis, is soon to meet its demise. It is common cause that much of Africa including leading economies on the continent - South Africa and Nigeria - are faced with a food crisis evinced by inadequate reserves and increased reliance on imports. However, Africa's problems don't stop there. Governments faced with challenges of administering state affairs have not been able to adequately address all the challenges that pertain to the social and economic woes of their citizens.
Rural urban migration of much of Africa's poor in search of jobs in big cities has not only placed additional pressure on resources, particularly housing and with it water and sanitation; it has also left many rural areas where jobs can be created, desolate. The one track focus on increased participation in industries further up the value chain (which is not entirely negative per se) in an effort to fast track development to match developed economies has left agribusiness, which has an incredible potential to change the wealth of African countries, with very little attention in terms of research and development.
Corporate governance or its lack thereof has contributed to seeing the already little Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) that Africa receives fail to accomplish its desired outcome, and further dwindle as investors see the continent as a region too risky for investment especially in these trying times. Legislative policies that have no sure footing have further contributed to investors' loss of appetite in some parts of Africa where in theory opportunities are attractive, but for the unsound policies. Foreign aid is becoming less reliable and should not be seen as a permanent solution to addressing the needs of the poor, such as the crisis which has plagued Somalia and much of East Africa.
Where governments have failed, private equity can help to bridge the gap or at least steady the ship. The characteristics peculiar to or rather predominate in private equity firms that make them such an attractive solution are: the deliberate focus on creating good corporate governance in portfolio companies; the ability to restructure companies in a way that sustains growth; finding attractive investments where no one else can and maximising the productivity of portfolio companies. All these areas can be leveraged to help address fundamental problems faced by African economies.
Private equity firms are quickly realising the ever increased importance of adding real value to Africa's economies through the efficient structuring of their portfolio companies. The issue here remains one of creating sustainable businesses, which can stand against all internal and external economic pressures. After all, it can be said that where you do business well you can continue to reap more rewards. African governments are appreciating their role in creating tighter regulations to ensure more equitable participation of locals. Such efforts by governments should in no way be despised but rather encouraged because a healthier Africa contributes to a more stable global economy.
At Elah Capital we believe that sound corporate governance should be seen as the key driver to social economic development in Africa, given it's value in creating sustainable businesses and mitigating overall risk of conducting business on the continent. Private equity firms further improve the corporate governance structures of companies owing to their need to create a more robust entity upon exit, particularly in the case of an Initial Public Offering (IPO). The influence that private equity will have in supporting corporate governance is not to be ignored. Given Africa's increased need for investment, the role played by private equity firms can be leveraged to bring about an improved risk profile for the continent. Private equity will be the sounding board for the advancement of good corporate governance in Africa.
Why should it be that when Europe sneezes Africa catches a cold? It's time for Africa to assert its own identity and be master of its destiny. The shortcomings of our past should forever be etched in our minds and as such we must look more favourably to initiatives that place wealth in the hands of the majority, as this is the necessary ingredient to creating thriving economies on the continent. Building synergy between investments on the continent is an important strategic tool to harnessing the individual strengths of our economies, and private equity can make this a possibility sooner. With access to vast amounts of capital in the hands of highly experienced and forward thinking executives, it is possible for equity firms to make matters such as South Africa's Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) their prerogative.
Whilst private equity is not without its flaws; for example where portfolio companies are so highly leveraged that after sale their performance dwindles or where restructuring to remove the inefficiencies brought about by 'redundancies' contributes more to leaving an economy worse off with many more unemployed. These matters, and several others aside, the positives presented by private equity far outweigh the negatives and as such we cannot turn our backs on this potential solution for a continent that for so long has been able to list its problems but less often the solutions to its deep seated issues.
The answer can be found in customisation and cultural awareness. Private equity firms need to be more sensitive to the needs of their environment and adjust accordingly as time and need dictates. The firms which recognise this will undoubtedly be better placed to succeed than those that ignore it.
Where FDI is insufficient, more investment from Africans by development banks, channelled through private equity firms and aimed towards the improvement of our own products and services is what will undergird our development and bring Africa social and economic emancipation.

Make It An Unforgettable Weekend by Betting on These 4 Games
It's that time of the week again. The next 2-3 days will be littered with thousands of games for fans around the world to enjoy. As you look forward to enjoying these games and the unforgettable moments, you can make it a weekend to remember by making some money for yourself.
All you need to do is to bet on the right games and you can earn some extra cash for yourself. But which games can you bet on?
Inter Milan vs. Juventus
Of all the top 5 leagues in Europe, the Italian Serie A is the one that is yet to be decided. While Juventus sit top of the table, they're followed closely by Napoli, second on the log, trailing by just one point.
Up next for the Old Lady in a bid to win another Serie A title is the Derby d'Italia where they have to face Inter Milan. The Milan side have it all to fight for in this game too as they're looking to replace either one of the Roman clubs (Lazio and AS Roma) in the UCL spots available.
The last time both teams faced each other, they played out a 0-0 draw.
Do you think there will be another draw in this game?
Manchester United vs. Arsenal
Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger will clash again. After 22 years in the business, the Portuguese is probably the most stubborn opposition Wenger has faced. Depending on what the future holds, this is the last time both managers will be facing each other in a Premier League game.
And it is a tough one for Arsenal. There have been over 2.5 Goals in Arsenal's last 7 Premier League games but they have lost their last 5 away matches in the league also. Manchester United, on the other hand, has remained unbeaten in 13 of their last 14 home games against Arsenal.
Which club will win this one: Manchester United or Arsenal?

Boston Celtics v. Milwaukee Bucks
It has been one of the tightest games to call in the NBA Playoffs this season. It's been back-and –forth between both NBA franchises. From Bucks drawing level (2-2) to Celtics taking a 3-2 lead in the series and then surrendering their lead yesterday, in dramatic fashion, it's been breathtaking.
Both sides are tied at 3-3 in the NBA best-of-seven-series. On Sunday, they will clash on the court again. This time, there must be a winner, just like penalties in football games.
Which of the two teams do you think will win Game 7 of this series?
