Q: Javascript - Event trigger when text input change but not with physical key board I have created a virtual numeric keypad by Javascript that appears when the user focuses on input (by onfocus event). When clicking on this keypad buttons can type in that input. In this input another function runs by onkeyup event which means when the user types in this input by physical keyboard this function triggers.
<input type="text" id="nc" onkeyup="checkNationalCode(this);" onfocus="appearNumPad(this);"/>

The problem here:
When the user types by clicking on my virtual numeric keypad, onkeyup event doesn't trigger. I have tried some other event types instead onkeyup (for example onchange, oninput ,...) but non of them work.
Is there any event type that triggers and runs checkNationalCode() function when the user clicks on the keypads button (typing on the keypads button in input) or another why two run this function by user typing with my virtual keypad?
I can not use onclick event on the keypad buttons because checkNationalCode() is in one of my input but my virtual keypad is used for all of input.
The function that creates and appears on my keypad by ajax :
function appearNumPad(obj){
    document.getElementById("numPadContainer").style.display = "block";
    //step1:
    let request = new XMLHttpRequest;
    //step2:
    request.open("GET", "../common/numPad.php?inputID="+obj.id);
    //step3:
    request.onreadystatechange = function () {
        if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
            document.getElementById("numPadContainer").innerHTML=this.responseText;
        }
     };
    //step4:
    request.send();
}

A: Inside your virtual keypad key click handler, you could dispatch your desired event to the input like this.
const input = document.querySelector('#nc');
input.dispatchEvent(new KeyboardEvent('keyup', {'key': '<key name>'}));

The program will also help with stabilization and removing background noise.
Yes, you can backup with iTunes - but what if you didn't?
As a parent, this is a must-have.

Cerkiew Przeniesienia Relikwii św. Mikołaja w Moczarach – dawna cerkiew greckokatolicka, wzniesiona w 1919 w Moczarach.

Obiekt wpisano do rejestru zabytków w 1986.

Historia
Cerkiew zbudowano w 1919 (niektóre źródła podają 1903) na miejscu poprzedniej z 1754. W latach 1945-51 wieś była w granicach ZSRR. Po 1951 używana jako magazyn przez greckich emigrantów uległa dewastacji, później opuszczona.  W 1991 przejęta i po gruntownym remoncie w 1992, użytkowana jako rzymskokatolicki kościół filialny pod wezwaniem Niepokalanego Serca NMP parafii w Jasieniu-Ustrzykach Dolnych.

Architektura i wyposażenie
Jest to budowla drewniana, konstrukcji zrębowej, na planie krzyża łacińskiego, orientowana. Trójdzielna z prezbiterium zamkniętym trójbocznie i parą zakrystii po bokach i nawą z transeptem. Dachy dwuspadowe. Nad nawą kopuła osadzona na ośmiobocznym bębnie z wieżyczką na sygnaturkę. Identyczna wieżyczka nad sanktuarium. Ściany oszalowane. Cerkiew kryta czerwoną blachą. Wokół pod oknami gontowy daszek okapowy.

Wewnątrz sufity z fasetami, ażurowy parapet chóru muzycznego. Wnętrze pozbawione oryginalnego wyposażenia z nielicznymi sprzętami współczesnymi.

Otoczenie
Obok cerkwi znajduje się duża drewniana ażurowa dzwonnica z okresu budowy świątyni. Konstrukcji zrębowo-słupowej, na planie kwadratu, z motywem słońca w ozdobach szczytów dachowych.

The Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination Online Practice Exam 2 (MPRE-OPE 2, 2017) is a 60-question, annotated online practice exam that uses questions drawn from actual MPREs administered in past years. Annotations by the experts who write questions for the MPRE explain why each answer choice is correct or incorrect.

Barbri's co-founder and former President recommends BarMax.
"The MBEs were AMAZING because they were actual questions through the NCBE. I said goodbye to my 'fake' BarBri MBE questions and focused on reading the BarMax outlines and doing MBEs as often as I could. I was able to raise my MBE score 20% by the end of the first week. I was ecstatic (obviously) when I received news that I had passed the CA bar."
"I found the multiple choice questions are actually fun to do with a really easy to use interface and up to date statistics which allow you to keep track of your percentages and how they compare with others. Don't be afraid to step outside the norm. BarMax is a cutting edge concept that works."


Automated sentiment analysis is becoming more popular for media measurement as the computer-based software programs improve and organizations seek to analyze enormous amounts of mentions quickly and affordably.
By automatically grading news articles and social media posts as positive, negative or neutral, the sentiment analysis software can help public relations and marketing departments determine how well their campaigns are working by analyzing trends in consumer sentiment. Political campaigns can use sentiment analysis to study the public's reaction to candidates' positions; investors and stock analysts can analyze perceptions about the stock market or a particular stock.
Automated systems are less expensive than paying human analysts. However, they are not always the best choice. Although the software has improved, it remains far less accurate than human analysts. Automated programs cannot place comments in context and often fail to grasp nuances of human language. They have difficulty interpreting slang and sarcasm.
Pointing out an example of automated analysis can misfire, Huffington Post business blogger Dan Mirvish noted that when Anne Hathaway was in the news with favorable publicity, Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway's shares went up. He found six dates going back to 2008 when that happened. Automated trading programs apparently confused the actress with Buffett's company.
Katie Paine, CEO of Paine Publishing and a noted expert on media measurement, recommends questions to ask to help decide if sentiment analysis is right for your organization.
Do you receive more than 2,500 qualified mentions a month in social media? Qualified mentions do not include spam, content-farm generated copy or mentions of similar-sounding brand name. If your brand has relatively few mentions, a computer program might be more expensive than a trained analyst.
Do people express any sentiment when discussing your brand? Conversations about some products, such as B2B products, are typically very factual. It may not be possible for a computer to glean any sentiment from the conversations.
Do you have direct interaction with customers? If you have no direct customer interaction, then determining if sentiment has any real impact on your business will be difficult. You can link sentiment to customer behavior only if you are an online retailer or are in a field where people make reservations, or register online.
What level of accuracy is acceptable to your executive leadership? Most automated tools have an accuracy rate of about 60% to 70%. If that is not acceptable to your leadership, you can use human coders to conduct a random sample check to ensure a higher degree of accuracy.
What level of detail do you need from your sentiment analysis system? You will probably need a human analyst if you need to track complex messaging, quotes, issues, positioning, or other esoteric details.
Do you run numerous campaigns, which will require different search terms and different message tracking and different definitions of positive or neutral? Computers take weeks to reprogram, test and fix. If you need fast turnaround on changes to your system, then use a human.
Some monitoring services, including Glean.info, combine automated sentiment analysis with evaluation by human analysts. By using human analysts, companies can establish finely-tuned criteria for what constitutes a positive or negative mention. Although not always perfect, human analysts are trained to recognize language nuances and idiosyncrasies that trip up automated programs. They can also be quickly trained on specific rating criteria for each client.
Humans are also less literal than machines and can better tease out meaning. Large companies with thousands of media mentions can the control costs of human analysis by reviewing a sampling of posts. Many companies, for instance, use human analysis only for media mentions that appear in top tier media sources.
PR measurement and data analysis experts agree that integrating automated tools and human analysts is the best approach for most organizations.
Experts at the Sentiment Analysis Symposium favored using a combination of software and humans.
"Machines do analytics, humans do analysis," remarked Anjali Lai, an analyst at Forrester Research, according to Adweek.
Bottom Line: Automated sentiment programs provide both benefits and pitfalls. In many cases, human analysts provide superior results. It's essential to carefully weigh the pros and cons before establishing a media monitoring and measurement plan. For many companies, a hybrid approach that integrates humans and machines is the most effective and cost-efficient option.

Teyana Taylor "K.T.S.E." Album Review
June 25, 2018 Danii Gold
Teyana FINALLY released her album and I've been slowly but surely getting into. For one, since it was released under the Kanye and he produced by him, I knew it would be a catch 🙄
First off, it didn't follow the 7 song guidelines that Kanye was so stern on producing. There was 8 songs on the album which is still short, especially since the total album is only 23 minutes long.
Disclaimer: I don't care for the short album trend. I miss the 12 track or more albums.
Teyana starts off the album with "Manners" which is just a repetitive song but mainly a minute and a half intro to start the album off.
The second song " Gonna Love Me" is my FAVORITE song, which is about not taking certain things for granted. It gives me soulful Common vibes.
Hold on, HOLD ONNNN, DON'T LET ME GO. The third song "Issues/Hold On", is my second favorite track on the album. She talks about working out a relationship and not giving us so easily. This could be a correlation to her marriage with Iman Shumpert.
"Hurry" is a freaky song, just talking about making a move and…fucking pretty much lol.
"Keep your eyes all on this fatty
If you like what you see take your hands and grab it"
Yup, that's self explanatory lol.
"3 Way", the fifth track on the album is about having a threesome, another self explanatory song and she even got Ty Dolla $ign on the album, which is always a plus.
"Rose In Harlem" is another one of my favorites. It has a sample from the 70's group The Stylistics in the chorus and she talks about people who are close to you, that be faking and don't get caught up with them. Since you aren't sure who's real or fake, you just gotta watch your back. Also, she references Tupac's poem "The Rose That Grew From Concrete" with the Stylistics sample– "A Rose In Harlem (sample), Grew out the concrete (Tupac Reference). The song has a hip hop vibe to it.
"Never Would Have Made It" is a reference to Marvin Sapp's gospel song "Never Would Have Made It." In this song, she indirectly talks about her daughter.
Lastly, "WTP" which stands for "Work This Pussy" is another naughty song lol but also can be taken as a workout song.
Teyana has a variety of songs in this album from traditional R & B, to soulful R & B, to freaky dicky songs, to gospel influenced songs. I liked the album, but it could've been a tad bit longer as far as the length of the songs and the tracks on the album. I can jam to the whole album buuuuut it could've been a little better. Her first album was VII which had her single "Maybe" did pretty decent and was slightly longer than this album.
I like that Teyana is a woman with many talents such as singing, acting, model, businesswoman; plus she's a wife, and a mom. You can't do nothing BUT respect her.
What are your thoughts about the album? Yay or Nay??

Verbling Review – Speak Your Target Language Today!
Have you ever had a challenge with finding a good language teacher or somebody who would speak your target language? I had this challenge and many language students are saying the same. Verbling is created to solve that problem.
I made research on their services and community. Now I will share you what I found out!
What Is Verbling All About?
Verbling is a language learning community where you can find language teachers, tutors, and other students so you can take your skills to the next level. The idea is pretty similar to Italki but Verbling wants to brand themselves providing more high-quality teachers.
There are professional language teachers for all the biggest languages in the world. I didn't find the total number of teachers in Verbling but there are for sure thousands of them. It's good because it gives flexibility when you are choosing a teacher and also makes competition among teachers which brings prices down a little bit.
Verbling has a conversational curriculum which means that their main focus is on speaking a new language. That follows the principle what Benny Lewis always says, "Speak from Day 1".
Verbling believes that you will learn a new language by speaking it. I agree.
On their homepage, they show a picture explaining how Verbling works.
The basic idea is to connect language students and language teachers like in other similar services like Preply. The Verbling platform works very well for that purpose and you can quickly find professional teachers in a language that you are studying.
Each language lesson in Verbling is 60 minutes.
They also have some other features like language courses. It means that there is a package of lessons that a teacher has prepared with a specific subject. I could benefit for example from German Intermediate Course at the moment.
By clicking the picture of the course on their website, you will see more details about the subject and what time you can take a course.
In one section you can find articles related to language learning written by their teachers. You can filter the articles that are related to your target languages or even read the articles written by your own teacher.
Verbling Practice Groups – This Is My Favorite!
One of the most interesting ideas in Verbling is practice groups. In my opinion, it's wonderful and I am wondering why other language learning services are not providing it yet. Do you know if it's available somewhere else?
Anyone can create a practice group for free inside Verbling. Then it shows to all other members like you can see in the picture below. You will be in a Google Hangouts live with other language learners who join the group.
You can create a group and decide a language. Then you can choose the preferred level for people who join the group. You can see some examples in the picture above, "Any Level" and "Advanced".
The only drawback is that it can be sometimes challenging to find language learners who would like to practice right now. The Verbling community is not that big yet. You see that in the screenshot that I took there were 5 groups and all of them were for speaking English.
If the community grows, there will be more people to study each language. Probably I will contact Italki and ask why they don't have this feature yet. I will inform you their answer here when I have it. I am just wondering why other language learning websites are not using this kind of magnificent method to connect language students.
How Much Do 1-on-1 Lessons Cost?
It was interesting to find out that it depends on the language that you are learning. Verbling shows you the average price of the language lessons for each language.
These are only averages so you will find cheaper and more expensive teachers in any of those languages. You can find, for example, German teachers who teach for 15€ per hour.
It seems that German teachers charge much more because those language teachers (and students) live in more rich countries like Switzerland, Austria and Germany. Arabic lessons on the other hand are cheap because living in many Arabic countries is very cheap.
NOTICE: Many language teachers in Verbling offer a 30-minute trial lesson for free.
=> Get a Trial Lesson for Completely FREE!
Teaching on Verbling – Would It Be Profitable?
I believe that there are many teachers who are making a full-time income by teaching online. I think it would be an interesting idea especially if you are living in a cheap country. You have a flexibility to set your own hours and work from the comfort of your own home.
I noticed that several English and German teachers, for example, were charging even +40€ per hour. It means that by teaching 50 lessons you have already charged 2,000€.
Verbling takes 15% fee from your earnings so you would be earning 1,700€ in this example. With that money, you could live comfortably in most of the countries all around the world. In some countries, you could "live like a king" with €1,700 per month. And that was only for 50 hours of teaching!
Of course, you probably won't earn 40€ per hour right off the bat. When you start out you probably need to set a lower price to get some positive reviews and more credibility. Then you can raise your hourly rate if you want.
In the beginning, it may be challenging to get students but when you get the ball rolling, it will be much easier for sure. I noticed that the ones who had the highest rates had usually most reviews. I was a bit surprised because I thought that people wouldn't buy if your price is high.
But maybe it also works in an opposite way. When people see lots of positive reviews and high price they think that this must be a very high-quality teacher. Of course, you have also gained experience and knowledge over the time course which makes you more qualified.
Verbling provides also step-by-step instructions and support for those who want to start out as a teacher.
We can't deny the fact that Verbling and Italki are quite similar. It's not a bad thing. On the contrary, it's great that there are many services where you can choose from. What are the differences between Verbling and Italki?
Verbling says that their language teachers are more qualified. They go through tougher screening in order to get qualified as a teacher on their website. I don't know how tough their screening process is but I know that you can become a language teacher in Italki without a certificate.
However, Italki is a much bigger community. There are probably 10 times more teachers and tutors so you have more possibilities to choose. It also means that prices are in general cheaper in Italki because there is more competition.
Some people had found out that some teachers have a profile in both websites. But usually, they were offering their lessons for $1-2 cheaper price in Italki.
After all, I would say that Italki is my #1 recommendation but you can also benefit from Verbling. They have some features that Italki doesn't have like practice groups. Or maybe you find a teacher in Verbling that suits your needs perfectly so you will not need anyone else.
Another great option for finding language teachers and tutors is Preply. I offer 30% discount for all my website readers.
Conclusion – Is Verbling Worth It?
Yes, it is. It's completely free to get started and take a look around. Then you can freely choose a language teacher that suits your needs. If you don't find one, you can always turn to other services.
I am looking forward how their practice groups feature evolve and if their community keeps on growing in the future.
=> Want to Speak Like a Local? Visit Verbling!
Have you ever taken language lessons through Verbling or through other services? What kind of experiences did you have?
Very thorough review! Thank you for sharing this.
In the past I would go somewhere, start to pick up the language and then completely forget everything I learned relatively quickly because once I returned home I have no way to continue using it. The idea of practice groups to help use your skills is brilliant.
Nowadays you don't have a problem anymore that there wouldn't be people to practice with. There are Verbling, Italki, LingQ, Hellotalk and several other services where you can connect with other language learners. In addition, there are many events all around the world where language learners meet.
Have you tried some of those services?
Wow I really like this concept! I will definitely be checking it out, I just hope they have Hebrew. I have been trying for a decade to learn Hebrew! I can read Hebrew and know some words but just because I can read a word I still don't know what the word means.
I have tried immersing myself in Israeli Tv and movies to no avail. The best thing I found so far is BYKI but without using it regularly I have not gotten very far. To finally become fluent would be a dream come true!
I do agree with the that the prices is a higher or it cost big. If it'a a little lower I think the community will be bigger. Each language lesson in Verbling is 60 minutes that's amazing because even if you are busy you can take it. What an amazing review from you guys.
yeah, you've got good points. I think that Verbling is a great community and they are helping thousands of world all around the world to learn new languages. The prices are a bit higher on some other providers but if you are willing to learn, a few dollars/euros is not a problem.
1-to-1 teaching is very effective specially when it is a little bit difficult. like what you said sir verbling practice group is awesome, can you interact with other students?
yes, you can interact with other students in discussions or chat group.
Actually what I was looking at on your review about Verbling is the cost of learning German which is the target language that I'm planning to learn soon. I must say that it is quite expensive, but that got to show that it is really an important language for those in Europe and working in European countries.
However, I wouldn't mind learning that since I can as well register as a teacher on the site as well when I have learned to speak and write it fluently.
Wow thanks for this informative post. I don't have any idea in this verbling thing. Sorry for my language, it iis in our culture. For an added information about myself, I am from the Philippines and we don't have the privilage to learn this kinds of lessons. Thanks that I've found this blog of yours.
To know that there is a kind of website like this, it would be helpful to me in many reasons. Now I can learn the languages I want to learn right away. Even though they cost high than I thought. I can share it to my friends who wants to learn different languages also. Thank you for the information you give.
Yeah, services like Verbling are great because you can make progress right away with a native professional teacher. I have one friend who is working there as a German teacher. As far as I know, she has enjoyed teaching on Verbling. Her students have really liked the lessons and improved their German skills a lot.
This is very informative review you have here Sir. Knowing that there are some websites like Verbling is very helpful specially to those people who really wanted to learn some languages online. Finding a tutor or a native tutor for a specific language like German language is somehow difficult specially if you are living in an Asian country.
Well, what I like about the website "Verbling" is you can interact with some students, practice speaking the language and be comfortable with the language.
Yes, the Internet has opened so many possibilities for language learners. You can master any language from anywhere in the world by using online resources. You can learn speaking, writing, listening and literally everything. Resources like Verbling are great for language students.
It's an previledge and oppurtunity to be able have access and learn to this site. Now, my spare time will be a stepping stone for me to be a productive person in terms of learning new language.
Sounds great. What language are you studying at the moment?
Since you say, "Verbling has a conversational curriculum…their main focus is on speaking a new language," I am quite fascinated with this language learning community. I need to check this out. Thanks for the review.
Sounds good. Let me know what did you like. I've noticed that most people want to learn speak a new language instead of just writing or studying grammar. That's why resources like Verbling are great. Also, Benny Lewis always concentrates more on teaching people to speak rather than teaching some boring grammar.
That's true. Most of the people want to learn a spoken language. Their primary motive of learning a language is to communicate with the people who use that language. It is true that if you want to use a language in a better way, you need to learn the grammar, however, unless you want to master the language and become proficient, you don't need to learn the language through and through.
Yes. There are also many ways to learn grammar. I think some methods that we used at school weren't the most effective ones. For example, Duolingo explains you some grammar points and then you can practice them right away by playing their game.
I still have a question regarding this program. You have started the price for language courses, is this a recurring charge or onetime payment? By the way if I decide to join this program, I will make sure to use your code so that I can get discounts.
Have you checked out their website? You can take one lesson or as many lessons as you want.
Sounds like a good platform, however am a little concerned on the pricing which seems a little high in comparison to other sites since it's just begining to grow and hasn't really evolved to a large platform like italki for example.
Other than that, it think it's a good tryout for anyone willing to check it out. Thanks for the information.
You can use it for completely free so you don't need to worry about the price. You can afterwards upgrade to premium.
If you compare Speechling to local language courses, the pricing is ultimately cheap.
If you get a job that pays you 2 times more because you learn another language, Verbling pays itself back several times.
Alright. Now thats really helpful. The fact that it can be started on a free plan makes it even better, especially for skeptics like myself and also those concerned about the pricing. Thanks for the suggestion.
I have now so many options online to learn the language what I want. Thanks for giving us tips on how to learn language in easiest way. I should try this "Verbling". I hope I will learn a lot more for them.
Yeah, the Internet is full of awesome learning resources. Let me know afterwards what did you like about Verbling.
Hola! Soy Tiffie, I have been studying Spanish on and off through Instituto de Cervantes and do self-studying as well. I have bumped into Verbling a year ago if I'm not mistaken.
I am sure it's a promising venue for learning Spanish. I just did not have the monetary amount to pay a good Language professor. I do hope they give discounts from time to time.
Have you checked out Baselang? That's one of the best resources for learning Spanish.
What a great service Verbling is! I hope i can be able to participate by being a tutor of my own language "Tagalog". I know that a lot of people also have wanted to learn our language and this is the best way I can teach them. Just hoping that Verbling have a platform for me to teach my native language to anyone.
Apart from the high prices, I also believe verbling is good. You have given a nice review about verbling and reading it has made me feel like I know everything about that site. I haven't taken any lessons online but if I ever am ready to teach online, I will start with Italki.
Sounds like a great plan Jessym!
I like the part wherein Verbling can do like a group session and I think it's very helpful for learners. The fact that different language is not easy task to learn but you are right, as you started absorbing on what courses they will give out, it will be easier as time goes by. Group session will be advantage for everyone because they will learn newly things from each participants aside from their tutor.
That's a good point of view!
Learning languages becomes very easy and very affordable now a days. So if you want to learn different language you can try verbling. I am not yet tried verbling but because of what I see and read I can say that it is legit and I will definitely try this sooner.
Learning different languages is difficult no matter how you look at it. Vocabulary is only the first step to fully understanding the mechanics of a language. Verbling has helped me exponentially with its easy to use interface, and high quality support of grammar practices. I am so glad I tried out this program and I am so excited for where it will take me!
I think learning languages is hard only if you have wrong techniques. If you use effective methods, you can learn any language easily.
Wow, so much information in only one post, you are the best!
Thank you Alberto! I'm glad you liked.

Fine gas bubbles are perfectly suited to visualising flow fields. Due to the Reynolds analogy, many flow processes that occur in air can also be demonstrated by experiments in water.
The experimental unit HM 133 can be used to visualise laminar and turbulent flow processes in a water channel. Hydrogen bubbles are generated electrolytically at a cathode made of thin platinum wire. A stainless steel plate is used as an anode. Small bubbles that detach from the platinum wire are easily carried along by the flow due to their small size.
An interchangeable model is used in the shallow water channel and flow travels around and through it. Bulbs are located along the experimental section on the walls of the water channel. The indirect illumination results in a high-contrast image.
The experiments run with a low flow velocity. Flow separation and vortex formation are clearly visible. Different drag bodies or changes in cross sections are used as models, e.g. cylinder, aerofoil profile and rectangle. A flow straightener and a layer of glass balls ensure a smooth and low-turbulence flow. The power for the electrolysis, its pulse and pause length and the flow velocity in the water channel can all be adjusted.

OFWS BEWARE: Atty. Bruce Rivera's Noah Foundation and its Overseas Remittance Scam
Monkey remittance business preys on unwitting OFWs? Ginamit si Inday? And since when did Atty. Bruce Rivera become the "chief legal advisor for the Duterte presidential family"?
Cryptocurrencies, in simple terms, are digital currencies that are free from control by any single central bank. I will not go into the details of how cryptocurrencies work.
The most popular cryptocurrency right now is Bitcoin. Aside from Bitcoin there are other cryptocurrencies that are gaining wide acceptance. With that said, this article focuses specifically on "Noah Coin" (also called "Noakoin"), a cryptocurrency that, according to its website, will be launched on 12 June 2018.
According to NoahCoin.org:
"The main market for NOAH COIN consists of OFWs (Overseas Filipino Workers). It is a promising method for Filipino workers who have gone overseas to earn income for their families to use when sending money back home, and the size of this market has risen to three trillion yen."
NOTE: JPY 3 trillion is roughly equal to US$26 billion using current exchange rates.
We clearly see that Noah Coin's main market is the OFW population, and that its primary purpose is for overseas remittance.
A screenshot of NoahCoin.org
According to the same site, Noah Coin is a project of the Philippines-based Noah Foundation, and that part of the earnings from Noah Coin transaction fees will be used to fund Noah Foundation's charitable work.
Sounds like a good idea! After all, an impoverished country like the Philippines can benefit from another charitable foundation on its shores.
Who's behind Noah Coin?
Noah Foundation's Noah Coins is, for the most part, a low-cost remittance service that mainly targets OFWs. And just like any other newly-introduced remittance service, I felt it proper to check the reputation of the people behind it.
Noah Coin's website (NCW) lists six (6) key people, which it calls the "Noah Foundation Team":
A screenshot of "Noah Foundation Team".
1. Executive / Lawyer, Bruce Rivera, "Chief legal advisor for the Duterte presidential family of the Philippines. Graduate of the San Beda Graduate School of Law."
2. Chief Technological Officer David Mezrahid, a "cryptocurrency lecturer at Princeton University. Also active as a private banker in Monaco."
3. Chief Director Clarke Robertson, a "CTO of a number of companies based in London. Active as a systems architect skilled in infrastructure development and network platform design."
4. Executive Martin Salvador, "CEO of Ark Technology Co., Ltd. Holds over 20 years of experience in project management spanning a number of different languages.
5. Robbie Antonio, Supervisor of NOAH City, currently the managing Director of Century Properties and CEO of Revolution Precrafted.
6. Bea Rose Santiago for Public Relations, "A Filipina actress who was also chosen as the 2013 Miss International. Active in a number of media both domestically and abroad."
Okay, hold on one second!
Bruce Rivera
Admitted to the bar in May 2006 [Chan-Robles], Cebu native Rivera is best known for defending, defended businesswoman and alleged pork barrel scam mastermind Janet Lim-Napoles [Inq]. With that said and as a political blogger who has been monitoring the Philippine government since 2015, I know for myself that Bruce Rivera is not the chief legal advisor of the "Duterte presidential family".For one, Atty. Salvador Panelo is still the Presidential Legal Counsel, and I have yet to learn of a single court case where Rivera represented any member of Duterte's immediate family.
Something's off. Let's check another one.
"Chief legal advisor for the Duterte presidential family of the Philippines"
David Mezrahid
A google search using "Mezrahid Princeton university" does not show entries that definitively say that Noah Foundation CEO David Mezrahid indeed works for the illustrious Princeton University. Moreover, a look at the work history in his [LinkedIn] account shows that he's been based in either Western Europe and HongKong but never in the United States.
Princeton is in New Jersey, United States.
Century Property's Robbie Antonio's [Linkedin] account doesn't include anything about Noah Foundation, and I sincerely doubt that he'd involve himself in the field of cryptocurrency for the simple reason that he's a lot better at doing other things.
"Executive" Martin Salvador, which Noah claims to have over 20 years of experience in project management, turns out to have been a K-12 teacher in the United States from 2001 to 2012[Linkedin], so where did those "20 years" come from?
Meanwhile, I cannot seem to find anything about "Chief director" Clarke Robertson, which the site claims to be a CTO (chief technology officer) of several London-based companies.
And lastly, Miss International 2013 Bea Rose Santiago, supposedly Noah's PR head… do I even have to explain this?
Smells like Fraud
So far, I have shown that Noah Coin's website appears to be fraudulent. Unfortunately, it appears that some OFWs may have been defrauded as the Philippine Embassy in Tokyo's warned everyone in March 2017 against both purchasing Noah Coins and engaging with Noah Foundation.
"BSP… has not issued authorization to The Noah Foundation and/or Noah Global Innovation Services Inc. (Noah Global) to engage in the pre-selling of Noah Coins nor recognize that Noah Coin is a national project," the embassy said.
The embassy added, "Noah Global has no secondary license or authority in selling and trading of bonds, securities and similar instruments."
Moreover, the embassy said Noah can't be found in its registered address in the Net Lima building in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.
According to Noah's website, however, the company is located in Unit 3106 Trade and Financial Tower at 32nd St., Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.
But it doesn't end there.
The Noah website earlier claimed that one of its sponsors is Filipino-Chinese business tycoon Lucio Tan of the LT group. However, in an official press statement issued earlier this year, the Philippine National Bank said it or any of its affiliates are not connected with the Noah Project, Noah Coins, and Noah Foundation.
According to PNB, "Rest assured that PNB and the LT Group of Companies shall not hesitate to take any and all appropriate legal action to address this misrepresentation."
The page claiming sponsorship from the LT group has since been taken down, although a screenshot of the entire page can be found by clicking here, and one of Noah Coin's promotional videos claiming a connection with the LT Group's Philippine Airlines still exists, as show at 13:00 of the following video:
Something's really off here, especially since I also discovered a similarly-named cryptocurrency, the NOAHcoin. Launched in 2014, NOAHcoin is totally different from the Noah Coin discussed in this article, which has yet to be launched.
In the relatively small world of cryptocurrencies, why would someone use a name that has been used before and the name of a failed cryptocurrency at that?
Yes, all signs, so far, point to fraud.
Non-refundable? No receipts?
I tried to see how Noah Coins work by clicking on the "Buy" button at noahcoin.org. This led me to "noahcoin.co", the Noah Coin payment portal. After registering and logging in, I clicked on "Order NOAH", which is presumably that which will allow me to buy some coins.
A popup notification appeared, as shown in the screenshot below:
According to the popup, "a notification was issued by the Embassy of the Philippines, as it was recently discovered that certain purchasers were carrying out excessive advertisement of NOAH COIN on their websites as agents."
This is confusing. A currency's value depends heavily on how widely it is recognized, so advertising is key to its success. Why would Noah dissuade people from talking about the currency?
I closed the popup and I was sent straight to the payment screen. From there, I saw that the lowest amount that I can buy is US$ 8333.33, with a promise that it will be worth US$ 9,333.33, presumably by the time Noah Coins are launched on 12 June 2018. There are two other options: $25,000 and $83,333.
Wow, that's a lot of money required!
Of course, it's one thing to require an "entry amount" of over $8,333 (Php 420,000) but it's another thing for people to actually give Noah that money. However, a look at "Issue Invitation Code" page shows that a payment is necessary for a Noah user to earn bonuses for inviting other people into the system.
Specifically, the "Issue Invitation Code" page states:
"After we confirmed your payment, 'Issue Invitation Code' will be available."
Adding the fact that Noah discourages "excessive advertisement", what we see here is a classic sign of a multi-level marketing (pyramiding) scheme, where people are required to pay an amount upfront before they are allowed to "sell" products to others.
In short, the Noah Project is a pyramiding scheme that disguises itself as a remittance service, especially since it also has a "rewards" page that is atypical of labels in cryptocurrency portfolio management platforms.
To make matters worse, the FAQ page explicitly states that Noah DOES NOT issue receipts. Yes, Noah expects people to shell out hundreds of thousands of pesos without proof of payment. The fact that payments can only be made through bitcoins makes the transactions even more untraceable.
Here's a video recording of what I did in Noahcoin.co:
Noah stole identities?
It appears that this whole thing was started by a Japanese national.
Based on his Facebook post, Izumi Tadashi is the one who started the entire Noah thing: the foundation, the project, and the coins.
Part of the Tadashi's post states:
Noah coin is doing very well and the project is progressing. I am really looking forward to the exchange in June 2018. Please wait for the official announcement from the Noah foundation about the start time of the third term presale.
Tadashi announced this on 11 December 2016. He posted this one month before Noah was registered at the Securities and Exchange Commission:
Receipt Date: 06 January 2017, a month after Tadashi's post.
At this point, I have reason to believe that Tadashi is the "power behind the throne"... but how about the others? Did the website use the identities of the six people without them knowing? Or are the six actually in on it?
On 02 July 2017, Atty. Rivera announced [FB]:
NOTE: Francis Manalo Santos has already left the group.
Rivera wasn't clear about what foundation it was. However, it appears to be a certain "Noah Global Innovation Foundation" or "Noah Foundation Japan", judging from his post on 22 August 2017 [FB].
"Noah"
After a little more digging, I discovered that Rivera actually brought in August 2017 two Noah co-founders – Clarke Robertson and Martin Salvador – to Davao to meet Davao Mayor Inday Sara Duterte-Carpio. With Rivera, Robertson, and Salvador was Japanese National Izumi Tadashi.
L to R: Davao Mayor Inday Sara Duterte-Carpio with Noah Foundation's Clarke Robertson, Martin Salvador, and Izumi Tadashi. Sources from Davao City Hall informed me that Rivera brought these three with him.
To promote his illicit overseas business, it seems that Rivera used Duterte-Carpio without the latter being aware of it. After all, who would think that a "foundation" would be a money remittance service?
I sure won't.
Tadashi and the gang even appeared at the DDS Global Thanksgiving Event held in August 2017 at the Crocodile Park in Davao City, donating P1-million to the Armed Forces. Sources informed me that the event was largely sponsored by Tadashi himself.
The Check
Well, thanks! But at the cost of OFW who may lose hard-earned money to a pyramiding scheme?
What we have here is Noah Coins, a cryptocurrency that offers itself as a cheap way for OFWs to remit money to the Philippines… but all signs point to a pyramiding scheme. It is unclear as to how many have bought Noah coins mainly because Noah's payment portal does not issue receipts, i.e. it will be difficult to prove who paid what when.
Noah Coins are issued by Izumi Tadashi brainchild Noah Foundation, with confirmed founders being Atty. Bruce Rivera, Clarke Robertson, and Martin Salvador. The Foundation also appears to be the financier behind the foreign trips of Rivera's group that includes fellow bloggers MJ Quiambao Reyes and Rocky Gonzales.
Noah's administrators have a penchant for claiming association with big names in Philippine business and politics, presumably to help gain the trust of prospective clients. It has, however, been threatened with legal action after Lucio Tan's PNB found out, and the Philippine Embassy in Tokyo has already advised OFWs to exercise caution in dealing with the organization.
With these, I have a few recommendations:
1. Financial literacy programs for OFWs and their dependents so they are likely to fall prey to these kinds of scams.
2. Tougher regulations for cryptocurrencies, because cryptocurrencies are largely unregulated today.
3. Tougher enforcement of laws relating to overseas remittance services, especially those that involve unstable or newly-introduced cryptocurrencies.
4. An SEC investigation with the option to pursue civil forfeiture proceedings against Noah's founders, possibly to help OFW victims, if any.
5. An NBI investigation on everyone involved with the Noah Foundation, and filing of charges if needed.
On a final note, let me state the obvious reality that OFWs are already living very challenging lives, so I hope fellow Filipinos, especially those who masquerade as OFW champions, will not do things that will make their lives even more challenging. [ThinkingPinoy]

Chart-Topping Recording Artist to Release a Family-Friendly Holiday Movie, "Christmas in Hollywood"
Recording artist Bertie Higgins with his company, Cayo Largo Productions, LLC and Reno, NV based R Squared Films is preparing to release an endearing family, comedy entitled, "Christmas in Hollywood." The movie has already won several festival awards. It stars Bertie Higgins, Chinese singing sensation Jiang Zi Long and Darren Dowler, the lead singer of Paul Revere's Raiders. Higgins and Dowler directed and co-wrote the film. This is a wonderful story with a great moral message. During the test and festival screenings the main viewer comment was that they cried and really laughed for the first time in years and that suddenly the world seemed like a better place.
The movie is about a young boy saving his father's Chinese restaurant from an evil banker. The father owned the property and the bank wanted the property for a new condo development. The bank figures out a tricky way to illegally foreclose on the restaurant just before Christmas. The 12-year-old boy, played by Jiang Zi Long, then sets out on a journey with his Uncle Bart, played by Bertie Higgins, and an Elf, played by Darren Dowler, to find Santa Claus and save Christmas along with the restaurant in the process. The movie is very funny, fast-paced and just makes the viewer feel good.
On November 18th, this year, the feature will have a release on over 80 major cable television networks in North America including Canada and will be available for video on demand download. It will also be featured several times between Thanksgiving and New Year's on the Chinese oriented ICN television network and in early December it will be presented on DVD/Blu-ray. Bertie, no stranger to hits, had his first number-one song, "Key Largo", which began his successful, international recording career in the 1980's. Bertie says "Whether it's music or movies, you often know when you have a hit and we feel that "Christmas in Hollywood' has all the indications of being a hit." As Bertie further explains, "Hopefully, for many years in the future, everyone will be watching "Christmas in Hollywood" as part of their Christmas holiday regimen." There is also a soundtrack album available from Toucan Cove/Universal Music on ITunes and Amazon.

ORLANDO | U.S. Representatives Stephanie Murphy (FL-07), Darren Soto (FL-09) and Val Demings (FL-10) announced they would like Congress to establish the Pulse nightclub as a federally recognized National Memorial Site.
Pulse owner Barbara Poma joined the Orlando-area representatives at a press conference held at the Pulse interim memorial June 10, two days before the three-year mark of the shooting.
"Establishing the site of Pulse nightclub as a National Historic Site is an important step in honoring those who were taken and ensuring we as a nation remember what happened here on June 12, 2016. In these times when acts of hate and violence are on the rise, we must remember our past and work to do better now and in the future," said Poma in a press release.
Poma is also the founder and CEO of the onePULSE Foundation, the nonprofit organization formed in the aftermath of the shooting that is handling the efforts to turn Pulse into a permanent memorial and museum.
The designation would grant a "federal designation honoring the 49 lives taken at Pulse, as well as the survivors, first responders and the entire Central Florida community," according to a joint press release. "A non-National Park Service affiliated federal recognition as a National Memorial site allows for public or private grants."
The announcement made at Pulse was interrupted by Christine Leinonen—mother of Drew Leinonen, one of the 49 victims—who shouted at Poma as she spoke to the crowd. Two police officers escorted her out of the ceremony, and they were followed by two state lawmakers and a city commissioner who talked to Leinonen for several minutes while the ceremony continued, according to The Associated Press (AP) who spoke with Leinonen after the ceremony.
"My son's blood is on her hands, and she's walking around like she's the hero," said Leinonen to the AP. "This is Orlando. This is where everyone wants to be in a fairy tale. Well, guess what? My son wasn't in a fairy tale. My son was in a real-life horror movie."
Poma addressed the outburst to reporters afterwards, saying "Christine is a grieving mom. Everyone does it differently, and this is a rough week for every mother, every survivor and every first responder."
onePULSE plans to build the National Pulse Memorial and Museum that will include the Orlando Health Survivors Walkway – slated to open in 2022 – on the site of the Pulse nightclub and nearby properties.

At our last Sunday session on Feb. 28th, six MCT volunteers created a new section of mini dead hedge to make the site safer and reduce trampling on the primroses and emerging English bluebells. We hope you like it.
Cyclists have made a real mess of the grass near the MCT information board near Little Hob Moor by taking short cuts to the rear path. We have put in log barriers to protect the grass while we try to restore it and to guide them to a narrower path by creating an obvious junction as shown below. The problem's been bad this year because of the prolonged wet periods. Applying 12 bags of gravel has made the area less slippery for the time being, so safer for walkers.
After a meeting of a group of Trustees and Volunteers on Valentine's day we decided where to install the second bench funded by the Dringhouses & Woodthorpe Ward Committee. Pam's photo (below) shows Malcolm, Paul and Adam hard at work digging out half a metre depth of soil to house the concreted-in bench legs. Meanwhile Jacqui, Lee, Louise and Lesley were working on the dead hedge at the north end of the site before coming to help with the installation. We were delighted to welcome Lee to our volunteer session. You can see a short video of how the installation is done on our Facebook page.
Sally Flint, one of the MCT Trustees, suggested it would be really nice to have a similar bench at the north end of the site near the notice board at the Little Hob Moor end. It's an excellent idea as it would provide a beautiful longer-distance view of the beautiful wooded and grassland landscape MCT is carefully developing.
It's nice as spring approaches to start getting ready for the new season. Over the past few days MCT took delivery of a new 48-volt battery mower with spare battery, kindly funded by the Dringhouses & Woodthorpe Ward Committee and a donation from Nadine Dixon. The Ward Committee are also funding two benches that arrived today too. We'll soon be digging the holes to set them in concrete, after adding metal rods at the base for added security. They'll be located to look over the wild flower meadow.
Photos below show the MCT Sunday volunteer activity worked well. Pam Brown caught Lesley, Paul, Louise and Malcolm on camera at a very early stage by marker posts behind the old wood pile She also helped with shifting lots of wood. The second photo was at 16.30, so it was a longish day but we wanted it to be safe and quite neat before we left. We'll soon be planting in front of it (small shrubs and wild flowers).
Our regular Sunday morning volunteer sessions start up again on 7th February at 10.30. We plan to extend the dead hedge at the north end of the west bund, so do come and help if you'd like to and have an hour or so to spare.
High wind on February 1st conveniently reduced the height of a dead tree on the edge of the site managed by MCT. The local tree warden, Ian Tomlinson, and the MCT field work co-ordinator had been watching the tree for several months, but it was left standing as an invertebrate habitat much loved by local woodpeckers. As the top fell in the night it was "caught" by an adjacent live willow, so it obligingly slid safely on to one of Ian's habitat wood piles.
An alternative way of providing nesting habitats is the creation of dead-hedges. Mike, Dave, Adam and Malcolm started creating a south-facing dead hedge on 28th January from waste materials on the site. The hedge will also partially screen off the composting area.
We took advantage of the mild weather on 27th Jan to put up a couple more insect hotels on the site. One is south facing and the other east facing so it will be interesting to compare occupancy later this year.
While checking distances on Jan 26th for MCT's submission to Buglife, the fieldwork co-ordinator noticed that our snowdrops beside the path near Little Hob Moor (below left) are coming on well, but spotted a small clump doing even better behind the east bund (below right).
The observant regular site users may have noticed that on Thursday 21st Jan a lot of the ivy was removed by volunteers from two willows just beyond the north end of the west bund. This was necessary to assess tree health (it revealed bracket fungi on one) before trimming some of the branches shading young trees at the end of the bund that we want to grow on. MCT is making sure that a wide range of tree ages and types is being maintained on the site.
Louise and Pam braved the cold on Sunday morning (17th Jan) to count over 700 trees looked after by MCT just on the west bund. There must be well,over 2 thousand on the site! They also did litter picking near the playground then and on the 24th. It does seem that the litter bin in the playground isn't big enough as it couldn't accommodate the 11 empty beer bottles they found nearby.
On 14th January 2016 four of our volunteers moved the Yew tree by the gate back a couple of feet to give it more room to grow in future years in response to a useful suggestion from Harvey Lowson, the CYC tree expert. As it does we'll reduce the Elder behind it. The move involved digging out a couple of stubborn old tree roots first (see below). It was cold with flurries of snow, but the soil was still relatively appreciably warmer and not too wet, so it should be fine.
A break in the weather on the morning of Sunday 10th January allowed Louise, Pam and Malcolm to spend an hour gathering up litter and disposing of it properly. Cans and bottles in (and round) the playground included a broken vodka bottle that needed careful collection for obvious reasons. Almost as anti-social was the pile of very thorny garden prunings from a Pyracantha dumped beside the rear path; we cut them up, bagged them (as below) and put the material on the compost heap.
It was really encouraging to see buds starting to open on the snowdrops that our volunteers planted last Autumn beside the path at the Little Hob Moor end. We spotted several when clearing twiggy litter off the path on January 3rd. Mind you, they need a bit more time to catch up with those on our New Year card!

College Corner: University of Maryland vs. University of Delaware
Anya Balsamides|April 29, 2015|910 Views
The University of Maryland and the University of Delaware, only an hour and a half away from each other, have various differences that set them apart as two unique, highly acclaimed universities.
The most notable difference between these two universities is the size. Universality of Delaware, for instance, is considered to be a medium-sized university with an enrollment of around 17,500 students. If a large university appears to be too daunting, University of Delaware is a good option. University of Maryland, on the other hand, is a huge university, with an enrollment of about 27,000 students. There are always new faces to see and new friendships to be made at University of Maryland.
Additionally, the atmospheres of the universities differ greatly. Someone searching for a "home-like" feeling at college will fall in love with University of Delaware. The 2,000-acre lush campus is beautiful during all seasons and is always bursting with activity, as freshmen are required to live on campus. The quaint surrounding town has everything that a college student could ever need, including a Chipotle within walking distance. University of Delaware is surrounded by multiple large cities, so internships are common; Baltimore is 55 miles from the school and Philadelphia is only 45 miles away! On the contrary, University of Maryland offers a much more suburban lifestyle. Considered a commuter school by many, freshmen do not have to live on campus, so there is much less of a community feel. Washington D.C. is only 25 minutes away, so most students at University of Maryland have internships and eventually receive jobs in the nation's capital.
For those who challenge themselves academically, University of Maryland may be the right fit. Maryland is significantly harder to get into than Delaware. For instance, the acceptance rate at Maryland is 47 percent, in contrast to the 65 percent acceptance rate at Delaware. Also, according to Academic Ranking of World Universities, University of Maryland ranks at No. 43, while University of Delaware ranks at No. 151. Additionally, the top majors at each school differ greatly. At the University of Maryland, the most popular majors include biology, criminology, economics, and psychology, while at University of Delaware, it consists of business, marketing, social sciences, and education.
The student life at both universities is never dull. As part of the NCAA Division I Big Ten Conference, University of Maryland always has intense sports games where students flaunt their school pride for the Maryland Terrapins. Joining the sea of red, black and gold screaming fans is a perfect way to make friends at the large school. Additionally, Maryland has more than 800 clubs and organizations, and 15 percent of students are involved in Greek life. Similarly, University of Delaware competes in NCAA Division I sports, so attending games is always an exciting social event. With 280 clubs and organizations, students who are not into athletics can easily find their niche. The Greek system is much larger at Delaware, attracting 20 percent of students. The social scene is always active at both universities.
Regardless of the specific differences, anyone can enjoy his or her college experience as a Maryland Terrapin or a Delaware Blue Hen. Just choose what best fits you!

Franz Hammerl (* 9. Oktober 1919; † 30. Juli 2001) war ein deutscher Fußballspieler.

Karriere

Vereine
Hammerl spielte von 1929 bis 1938 für den Post SV München und obwohl sein Verein sportlich im Schatten des FC Bayern München, des TSV 1860 München und des FC Wacker München stand, entwickelte er sich leistungsmäßig so gut, dass er mit 20 Jahren bereits in die bayrische Gauligaauswahlmannschaft berufen wurde, und das als Spieler eines Vereins aus der zweitklassigen Bezirksliga. Mit dem Post SV München gewann er am Saisonende 1937/38 die Bezirksmeisterschaft, der Aufstieg in die Gauliga Bayern gelang jedoch nicht.

Im November 1940 wechselte er als leistungsstarker Außenläufer zum Lokalrivalen TSV 1860 München. Bereits in der ersten Saison – 1940/41 – feierte er mit den "Löwen" den Gewinn der Gaumeisterschaft. Gemeinsam mit seinen Vereinsmitspielern Georg Bayerer, Franz Schmeiser, Franz Graf, Josef Wendl, Heinz Krückeberg und Ludwig Janda behauptete er sich in der Endrunde um die Deutsche Fußballmeisterschaft 1941 in den Spielen gegen die Stuttgarter Kickers (Edmund Conen, Franz Immig, Erwin Deyhle, Albert Sing), Rapid Wien und den VfL Neckarau. Knapp setzte sich Rapid Wien um die Stars Rudolf Raftl und Franz Binder in den Gruppenspielen gegen den TSV 1860 München durch. Hammerl überzeugte in der Position des Außenläufers.
Als die "Löwen" den Tschammerpokal 1942 gewinnen konnten, war Hammerl durch Kriegsereignisse gehindert, an den Pokalspielen teilzunehmen. Mit dem zweiten Titelgewinn, der Südbayerischen Gaumeisterschaft 1943, kam er einzig am 2. Mai 1943 beim 3:0-Erstrundensieg über den VfB Stuttgart zum Einsatz.

Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs gehörte er in der Oberliga Süd zur Stammformation des TSV 1860 München. Sportlich sorgte der Gewinn der Vizemeisterschaft am Saisonende 1947/48 für den nochmaligen Einzug in die Endrunde um die deutsche Fußballmeisterschaft. Das aufstrebende Team vom 1. FC Kaiserslautern mit dem torgefährlichen Innensturm Fritz Walter, Ottmar Walter sowie Werner Baßler ließ bei der klaren 1:5-Niederlage am 18. Juli 1948 in Worms Franz Hammerl und seinen Mitspielern keine Chance auf das Weiterkommen. Mit dem Saisonende 1949/50 – er hatte alle 30 Punktspiele absolviert – beendete er seine aktive Spielerlaufbahn. In der Oberliga Süd hatte er für den TSV 1860 München 142 Punktspiele bestritten. Durch sein Aushelfen beim 1:1-Unentschieden am 10. Februar 1952, im Heimspiel gegen den VfR Mannheim, kam noch ein weiteres Oberliga-Spiel hinzu; damit endete seine Spielerkarriere endgültig.

Auswahl-/Nationalmannschaft
In der Saison 1939/40, Hammerl spielte noch im Dress vom Post SV München, wurde er erstmals im Wettbewerb um den Reichsbundpokal in die Gauauswahlmannschaft Bayern eingesetzt. Er debütierte am 3. Dezember 1939 als 20-Jähriger beim 3:0-Sieg über die Gauauswahlmannschaft Württemberg. Es folgten Siege über die Gauauswahlmannschaften Südwest und Ostmark.

Das am 30. Juni 1940 in Augsburg ausgetragene Finale –  mit der Läuferreihe Georg Bayerer (TSV 1860 München), Ludwig Goldbrunner (FC Bayern München) und ihm, wurde mit 3:1 gegen die Gauauswahlmannschaft Sachsen gewonnen. Am 6. Oktober 1940 stand er in der Elf des Titelverteidigers im ersten Spiel des Wettbewerbs 1940/41, beim 3:3-Remis nach Verlängerung gegen die Gauauswahlmannschaft Niedersachsen, noch als Spieler des Post SV München.

Mit der Gauauswahlmannschaft Bayern bestritt er 1940/41 die Spiele gegen die Gauauswahlmannschaften Ostpreußen und Südwest und das am 7. September 1941 mit 0:2 gegen die Gauauswahlmannschaft Sachsen verlorene Finale in Chemnitz; wobei er die linke Außenläuferposition besetzte.

Kurz vor seinem 21. Geburtstag wurde der Außenläufer vom Post SV München in die A-Nationalmannschaft durch Reichstrainer Sepp Herberger berufen. Da einige Spieler wegen des Zweiten Weltkrieges nicht zu Verfügung standen und Hammerl in den Spielen der bayrischen Gauauswahlmannschaft überzeugt hatte, wurde er zum Länderspiel am 20. Oktober 1940 in seiner Heimatstadt gegen die Nationalmannschaft Bulgariens nominiert. Er bildete gemeinsam mit Andreas Kupfer und Ludwig Goldbrunner die Läuferreihe beim überlegenen 7:3-Sieg. Als weiteren Debütanten brachte Herberger auf Halblinks Albert Sing von den Stuttgarter Kickers zum Einsatz. Edmund Conen gelangen vier Treffer und Ludwig Goldbrunner beendete mit diesem Spiel seine Länderspielkarriere. Franz Hammerl konnte zukünftig aber den Stammspieler Albin Kitzinger nicht auf der Außenläuferposition verdrängen und kam zu keinem weiteren Einsatz in der Nationalmannschaft.

Des Weiteren stand er in den Aufgeboten Süddeutschlands für die Repräsentativspiele am 19. Mai und 17. Oktober 1948 sowie am 13. März 1949. In seiner Heimatstadt München kam er am 2. Oktober 1949 im Spiel gegen Norddeutschland zum Einsatz.

The Blood Libel Legend: A Casebook in Anti-Semitic Folklore
The Present State of the Ritual Crime in Spain
Alan Dundes
University of Wisconsin Press
SANFORD SHEPARD The Present State of the Ritual Crime in Spain The blood libel legend seems to have flourished in Catholic Europe. For this reason, it should come as no surprise to learn that ritual murder accusations were reported quite early in Spain. One of the most famous or infamous cases was that which was alleged to have occurred in the town of La Guardia ca. 1488 with a trial in 1490 and 1491. Some scholars believe that this supposed murder of a Christian infant in La Guardia and the ensuing trial was a contributing cause of the expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492. The following survey of the blood libel legend in Spain was made by Sanford Shepard, Professor of Spanish and Chairperson of the Humanities Program at Oberlin College. For representative discussions of the La Guardia case, see Isidore Loeb, "Le Saint Enfant de la Guardia," Revue des etudes juives 15 (1887): 203-32; Henry Charles Lea, "El Santo Nino de la Guardia," English Historical Review 4 (1889): 229-50; and Yitzhak Baer, A History of the Jews in Christian Spain (Philadelphia: Jewish Publication Society ofAmerica, 1966), 2: 398-423. Noteworthy in particular are the conclusions arrived at by Isidore Loeb in his praiseworthy essay: (1) The testimony of the witnesses obtained by torture or the threat of torture are full of contradictions, untruths , and impossible "facts." (2) The judges did not make a single inquiry to discover the truth. (3) They were not able to fix the date of the crime nor were they able to discover either the body or the remains of any Christian infant. The conclusion: The infant of La Guardia never existed! Reprinted from Judaism 17 (19681:68-78. 162 The Present State of the Ritual Crime in Spain Throughout the Middle Ages, Christianity nourished the half-hidden hope that the Jews secretly believed in Jesus. Not only the ignorant masses but also scholars and ecclesiastics were obsessed by the notion, to which they clung with a fierce, irrational passion, that the Jews placed credence in the supernatural character of consecrated wafers, the efficacy of black masses, and mock crucifixions. The accusation leveled against the Jews, that they were mocking Christian sacraments, was not based on rancor alone, but rather on what was held to be their skillful, malevolent manipulation steeped in belief. One might be persuaded to think that Christians doubted the articles of their own faith and sought confirmation of Christian miracles in Jewish sorcery. The allegation that the Jews kidnapped Christian children for the purpose of ritual murder, which recapitulated the crucifixion of Jesus, is widespread in the literature of the Middle Ages and, perhaps, best known to English readers from the Prioress's Tale in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Much material could be extracted from European literature to illustrate the nature of the accusation and its consequences to the accused . But readers familiar with the Beiliss case from Maurice Samuel's Blood Accusation or Bernard Malamud's The Fixer can supply their own details. A ramification of the blood libel was the accusation repeatedly leveled at Jews that they obtained consecrated hosts and performed acts of desecration on these objects which, according to Christian theology, were equivalent to the person of Jesus. Thus, such an act of desecration was, like the murder of a Christian child, a reenactment of the deicide attributed to the Jews. It seems reasonable in the mid-twentieth century to attribute the accusation of the blood libel to the credulity and superstition of the medieval mind or to find some psychological explanation in the remote regions of the human unconscious . But in Spain today the ritual crime still continues to hold a special place from which it will not be dislodged by the light of reason. The poet Garcia Lorca once remarked that a dead man in Spain is more alive as a dead man than anywhere else in the 163 Sanford Shepard world. The same can be said of certain events of Spanish history . The myth of a unified Roman Catholic Spain continues to be perpetrated, reinterpreted, and accepted by the conservative Spanish intellectuals of today, whose voices are the only ones tolerated by the church-state. Those events of Spanish history which can serve Roman Catholic unity and Roman Catholic ideals are carefully resurrected, cultivated, and disseminated, while other events are distorted or consigned to a dead and unproductive past. Official Spanish history is populated with the dead of five hundred years...

La Xemeneia de Can Galta Cremat és una obra de Barcelona protegida com a Bé Cultural d'Interès Local.

Descripció
La xemeneia de Can Galta Cremat es troba a la plaça de Can Galta Cremat; entre els carrers Campeny, Colòmbia i Arquímedes. És l'únic element que resta d'empeus d'una antiga fàbrica tèxtil.

L'estructura és d'obra vista i consta de dues parts. L'inferior és un basament de planta quadrangular coronat per una cornisa decorada amb dentellons; en una de les seves cares hi ha una obertura d'arc de mig punt actualment tapiada. La part superior és la xemeneia de forma troncocònica sense cap decoració i acabada amb una simple motllura.

Història
La fàbrica dels germans Mateu, coneguda popularment com de Can Galta Cremat, va ser creada l'any 1896 com a relleu de la producció llanera de La Societé. Gràcies a la bona marxa econòmica de la Primera Guerra Mundial va tenir un gran creixement. La fàbrica constava de telers mecànics, telers per a panes, màquines per a aprest i per filar.
