We here at SERVPRO of West Forsyth County like prevention. We also like to solve root cause issues so that they are not a repetitive money pit problem. We were reading an article by Bob Villa.com and realized they do to. This particular article spoke indirectly to preventing costly restoration repairs. Let's go over them and how they can help.
Changing or cleaning filters. Dryer filters if left uncleaned or allowed to go through the exhaust can cause a fire. We discussed this in an earlier blog using a real world example from right here in Winston Salem. Now a fire is the extreme end of the spectrum. But energy efficiency and keeping your electrical costs in check should also be a motivator. HVAC filters are also a way to prevent water damage and maintain energy efficiency. One use a high quality air filter and change it every 1-3 months depending on your air quality conditions. If you have pets or lots of dust every month is probably required. Spring cleaning or summer time is not the only time to change them. If you have a heat pump the same air flow return and air filter gets used to clean the air.
Only flush toilet paper and be conservative. The back flow preventer valve may catch toilet paper or other items flushed and hold the path open for a sewage backup. Be sure children are supervised and taught early on that the bathroom isn't a play area. Now we have dealt with this problem before, but if it's preventable which would you rather do? Have a working septic system or pay costly biohazard cleanup? Don't use harsh chemicals or bleach tablets to keep a clean toilet. They can cause more harm than good by breaking down seals and plastic components that helps to keep your plumbing in good working order.
Letting carpet stains set in, getting the spill up quickly can help. But, sometimes certain stains will need professional help. Not only do we cleanup after disasters we can clean the carpet after a fantastic party. We can also clean upholstery when you didn't take your shoes off at the door.
Don't ignore the gutters, lots of people think the end of fall is the best time to clean gutters, but spring also is a time when you should check them for debris. If the water can't flow to the down spouts then water will take the path of least resistance, if that is over the side toward the house wall then you could be exposing your home to water damage and mold after a time.
Smoke detectors should be checked twice a year, the time change or day light savings time is a great reminder to ensure fresh batteries are installed. Not only will this habit save you costs it can save your life.
Landscaping and overgrowth can lead water back to the house. Ensure that the landscaping slopes away from the house to prevent water from damaging your home from the outside in. Are your walkways clear of debris and shrubs trimmed to allow safe passage and prevent the pooling of water? In the winter that water can become ice and cause falls. Are there any dead trees that could fall on yours or a neighbor's house?
Not using garbage disposals properly can lead to an overflow and costly plumber bills. Again be careful of what you put down the disposals or your drains period. Cutting food while prepping, then washing it down the disposal is not a good idea. This can cause a clog and may even cause pressure on the plumbing joints and lead to a leak that you might not find until there is mold also.

Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist before becoming the first apostle to be called by Jesus. He was a Galilean and the brother of Simon Peter; in fact Andrew's first and most significant act as Jesus's follower was to look for his brother and bring him to Jesus.
Andrew was present throughout the ministry of Jesus and played an important part in it. At the feeding of the five thousand, it was Andrew who told Jesus about the boy who had brought with him the loaves and fishes.
It is the Gospel of St. John in particular that tells us of Andrew's contribution to the ministry of Jesus. Later traditions record that Andrew went on to preach to the Scythians or Greeks. In Greece he was so successful that at Patras he attracted the attention of the Roman proconsul, who ordered his execution. He had Andrew tied to a cross, not nailed, so that he would die more slowly. He is said to have lingered on the cross for two days before dying.
St. Andrew's body was later taken by Constantine to Constantinople. St. Regulus, who was in charge of Andrew's remains, was told by an angel in a dream to take them to a particular place; the angel would guide him. Regulus eventually arrived in Scotland, and the chosen spot was later known as St. Andrews. Regulus was helped by King Angus MacFergus, by tradition the founder of the town of St. Andrews. It was in this way that Jesus's disciple became the patron saint of Scotland.

I see what both of you are saying, but for people like me a little extra money here and there is what we need to sort of stay afloat. Of course, I am getting help from a relative that I'm living with at the moment (and I thank my father dearly for helping me all these years). However, in my situation, getting a job isn't easy. First of all, I have high functioning Autism and don't have much work experience. People from the past two job agencies I've been to since becoming an adult they both told me that it'll be hard for me to find a job because of the second factor I listed above. Nowadays in this economy, it's an unwritten rule out there that says you have to have your first job while still in high school. Believe me it was a shock the first and second time I wasn't that employable when I was only 18.
What these opportunities typically turn up to be is a pyramid scheme. You pay a fee to signup. You then receive a flyer saying how great stuffing envelopes is and list of names and addresses to mail said flyer. IF those people pay that signup fee so they can mail that flyer too, you get paid a small referral fee. ONLY if they take the bait do you get paid.


If you've watched the news any time lately, you've probably been aware of the new "epidemic" in our country. This epidemic isn't caused by a virus; it isn't caused by a bacteria; it isn't caused by any "disease" at all. The new epidemic in our country, say the experts, is obesity. We are being told that we have a fat problem and that our society needs to do something about it! Much of our problem, say the experts, stems from poor nutrition: an imbalance in our diet, too much sugar and fat and not enough fiber and healthy foods like fruits and vegetables. Another problem, they say, is that we eat too much and as a result of overeating we multiply pound upon pound.
What is your source of nutrition? Are you healthy?
In contrast to our burgeoning physical waistlines, we are spiritually wasting away. Spiritually, we need to have a balanced diet as well; we need less spiritual sugar and fat; we need more spiritually healthy choices. It isn't easy to give up a diet of sugar and fat, after all, they taste so good! Similarly, it isn't easy to divorce ourselves from spiritual sugar and fat (i.e. the "feel good" approach to spirituality). So, how can we improve our spiritual diet?
First, we need a daily serving of prayer. We begin to grow weak spiritually when we think that we are self-sufficient and have no need to depend upon God. A daily serving of prayer is packed with the daily essential vitamins of humility, selflessness, and thankfulness. We need these to fight off the potential bulge of pride, selfishness, and arrogance. Paul wrote, "Pray without ceasing" (1 Thessalonians 5:17).
Second, we need a heaping portion of God's word. Every day we make decisions in our relationships that affect our family, friends, coworkers and acquaintances. We need nourishment of God's word to guide us in such decisions. We also face temptation of one sort or another and we need the fortification of God's word to help us to overcome. Jesus quoted scripture to Satan when he was tempted and we know that God's word will help us overcome temptation (Psalm 119:11).
Third, we need a regular dose of service to others. There are many around us who need help. It's not enough for us to sit back and relax and wait for them to come to us. We need to be active in going out and seeing how we can help others. Galatians 5:13 says, "For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another." Exercising service in our life will keep us spiritually fit.
Finally, we need to pour ourselves several cups of a good attitude. Attitude makes all the difference in our daily walk with God. Regardless what we may believe, we have complete control over our attitude regardless how things are going in life and we must conform our attitude toward God's will. What must we do? Show love toward our fellow man, exercise patience, practice longsuffering and generously give forgiveness to those around us. Jesus said, "In your patience possess ye your souls" (Luke 21:19). We need constantly drink from the water of life to help our attitudes!
So many in today's spiritual world want to satiate themselves with spiritual soda pop and candy. And while there certainly isn't anything wrong wtih having soda pop or candy on certain occasions, a regular diet of it will cause sickness and mal-health. Such is also true spiritually; spiritual fast food may taste good at first, but cannot ultimately satisfy. Exercising spiritually healthy choices, however, will maintain a healthy spiritual life and fortify us with the basic essential spiritual nutrients. This will go a long way toward our spiritual health and well being.

Stop if you're not having fun.
Develop a great relationship with your dog.
Always have fun with your dog; training and play should all feel like the same thing.
Keep your dog in good physical condition.
Do whatever it takes to build your dog's confidence. A confident dog runs faster.
Make sure it's your dog who's asking you to work with him, not you asking your dog to work for you.
Do lots of shaping (Operant Conditioning) with your dog. Then he learns to think more, understands each new skill, learns to fail and try again, and your relationship with him improves.
Teach your dog rear end awareness and balance. There are a lot of tricks you can teach that help your dog gain good rear end awareness and balance.
If something goes wrong it's always your fault, either through your handling or your training.
Be consistent with your handling for each scenario. So your dog knows exactly where he's going at all times, giving him maximum confidence to run faster to go there.
Trial results don't matter; it's how well you are working as a team that matters.

Texas payday lenders face tougher standards with new federal rules
by Texas Tribune October 13, 2017
Gordon Martinez turned to a storefront payday lender more than 10 years ago and took out a loan of $1,200. The former teacher had just moved to Dallas to start a career in sales and was struggling to make his rent. But with high fees, his debt ballooned to about $3,500 within a matter of months.
"I had no opportunity to pay back," Martinez said. "I was set up for failure."
New rules passed last week by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau put stiff restrictions on payday and auto-title loans, like those Martinez used. The rules — which are scheduled to be fully implemented in the summer of 2019 — would prohibit lending without verifying a client's ability to repay the loan.
In Texas, a state where payday lending is largely unregulated, advocates for increased oversight view the new rules as a crucial step in protecting vulnerable borrowers. Ann Baddour, director of the Fair Financial Services Project at Texas Appleseed, a nonprofit advocacy and research group that pushed for increased regulation, said the rules ensure payday lenders don't go after borrowers they know cannot pay off their loans.
The Texas Tribune thanks its sponsors. Become one.
"These rules are transformative because they assert a clear standard that underwriting should be part of any credit," Baddour said. They are "underpinned by basic tenets of fair and responsible lending."
But others say the new rules limit underbanked Texans' access to short-term credit.
U.S. Rep. Roger Williams, R-Austin, said in a statement the new rules are "punishing vulnerable Americans." Williams, who serves as the vice chairman of the House Committee on Financial Services Subcommittee on Monetary Policy and Trade, said the rules takes away the "right to small-dollar emergency loans."
"Washington bureaucrats will never experience the financial instability that many of our hardworking families do. We must correct this system by rolling back the rule-making authority of this agency, whose decisions are guided by 'scholars' rather than industry and subject matter experts," he said.
Payday loans, which are already effectively banned in 15 states, involve customers taking small-quantity loans with very high fees. Clients are expected to pay back the fees and principal amount often by their next payday. Prohibitively high fees, however, often cause debts to roll over to the next month, which critics say causes a cycle of debt.
The new federal rules cover an expanse of lending practices advocates have called predatory — firms must now verify a client's ability to pay back loans before issuing them and cannot pull money directly from a client's checking account without written notification first. The new rules also limit rollovers for overdue payments.
Compared to other states, short-term, high-payment loans like Martinez's have few restrictions in Texas, and many say they are a debt trap for middle and low-income Texans. About 8 percent of Texans have taken out payday loans, compared to the national average of 5.5 percent.
More than 40 municipalities in Texas have passed ordinances restricting the expansion of short-term loan agencies. Still, statewide laws regulating payday loan practices have largely failed in the state Legislature. In 2013, a bill that would have curtailed many of the practices critics have called predatory failed as legislators could not agree on regulatory details.
Rudy Aguilar, director of consumer protection at the state Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner, which regulates payday lenders, said the office was still looking at the new rules and could not comment.
Payday lenders say they offer services to clients denied by major banks.
"While the rules announced today by the [Consumer Financial Protection Bureau] potentially impact only a small fraction of our total revenue, these rules are extremely complex for a small dollar loan and, by their own estimation, will significantly impact consumers' already limited access to credit," Nannette Blaylock, executive administrator for Curo Financial Technologies, which operates payday lenders such as Speedy Cash in Texas, said in a written statement.
Martinez, however, said the loans are not designed to help borrowers.
As his payments continued to grow, the fees eventually exceeded the bills and rent he initially needed help paying, he said. Martinez said the lender pulled money directly from his checking account, and with ballooning fees, the withdrawals eventually grew greater than his income.
In order for Martinez to notify the lender that he would not be able to make the payment, he said he was instructed to call the firm two days before the scheduled withdrawal date. But he said when he would call, no one would answer.
Martinez said the financial strain led to him and his wife separating. He was unable to pay rent, he said, and lost his home.
Baddour said the payday loan industry is built to profit from keeping clients in debt.
"That says something when a lending business complains about a standard that merely requires assessing the borrower's ability to repay, which should be a basic tenant of reasonable fair lending," she said. "It definitely gives one pause."
Martinez called the new rules "a good first step," but said they do not place adequate caps on interest and fees, which Martinez said caused his payments to balloon out of control.
Though Texas usury laws protect borrowers from annual interest rates of more than 10 percent, payday loan fees are not capped, said Kathryn Freeman, director of public policy at Christian Life Commission, which advocated for the new rules.
Martinez said with "good financial planning" and support from his church, he is in "a better stead now." Still, he continues to help those caught in a debt cycle and advocates for greater regulations, he said. His experience pushed him to work with Faith in Texas, a multi-faith social justice nonprofit, to advocate for caps on interest and fees.
"We can't stop now," Martinez said. "Now there's something that's right for all 50 states, but we need to do what's right for Texans."

Review by:
Serge Frisch
This is a book which will fascinate all cinema lovers and take its place among the many valuable writings on applied psychoanalysis in Europe. The work has its source in the interdisciplinary discussions which took place between psychoanalysts and film directors at the First European Psychoanalytic Film Festival in London in November 2001.

Piano and a Microphone 1983 is a wonderful encapsulation of just how talented of an artist Prince was before his death in 2016. The album was found in Prince's vault as one continuous recording on a single cassette tape, containing recordings of some of his most famous works as well as the bare bones of songs that were never officially released. Listening to this album straight through will make you feel like you are sitting in a room with Prince, jamming out and improvising some of his new ideas. If you are a Prince fan at all, this is an extremely personal album that allows his memory and talent to live on in our hearts and ears.

Saints Media Team
Duo complete moves as squad takes shape
21 year-old striker Joe Iaciofano has agreed terms with the Saints following his release from Northampton Town.
He came through the Cobblers academy and after a spell on work experience with Corby Town in 2016/17 he was rewarded with a professional contract that summer. His first team opportunities were limited at Sixfields and spent most of the last few years on loan with Chesham United and Brackley Town along with a period with Northern Premier League side AFC Mansfield. Iaciofano has featured in the last two friendlies for City and is set to make his home debut against Stevenage at Clarence Park tomorrow.
Manager Ian Allinson has been impressed by the work ethic and energy Joe has brought to training.
"You can tell he's going to be a good player for us. He's got that professional mindset and he's obviously been well managed at Northampton."
"We needed to bolster the attacking options and Joe will offer something different for us going into the new season. He's young but he brings a level of physicality that I feel we were missing towards the end of last season.
"His touch is superb and that will enable us to bring others in the game quicker."
Joining Joe at the club is midfielder Darren Foxley, who arrives from National League South rivals Hungerford Town. Darren terrorised City last season with a dominant display in our 5-0 defeat back in February.
Thankfully the winger is now sporting yellow and blue, much to the delight of the boss.
"He absolutely tormented us when we played Hungerford last season and remember both Glen (Alzapiedi) and myself singled him out as an outstanding player."
"He's young and hungry which fits the bill at the type of player we're looking to attract to the football club and he's looked good in the couple of games we've had to date."
"He likes to take on defenders and with the pace he has, I've no doubt he'll prove to be a massive asset."
We hope you'll join us in welcoming Joe and Darren to Clarence Park.

Saints take on Stevenage


A. I dance because I believe it is what I was put on this Earth to do. Dance can go places words can't and I want to use it to invite people into the Jesus story.
Q. What's your favorite DQ blizzard flavor?
Q. What has been your favorite role so far?
A. One of my favorite roles was Clara in the Nutcracker. I also enjoyed premiering Alexandre Proia's Four Seasons as a faun. My partner and I represented hope throughout the ballet and the choreography was a blast.
Q. What advice do you have for younger dancers?
A. be confident in your identity. Dance is what you do, it's not who you are. You are a beloved princess of the King of Kings; your future and dreams lie in His hands (not those of any director). Let Jesus be your rock, pursue excellence from a heart of grateful worship, and everything else will fall into place.
"I am completely in awe of God bringing these dreams together into one and orchestrating all of the circumstances to prove His sovereignty and faithfulness. Super stoked for this adventure"


I truly appreciate your (D. Pipes') views and have received many emails from a friend who lived in Israel for most of her life with this point of view. As a Jew I feel immense pain over this. I have signed petitions but also must recognize that there are perhaps a majority of Israelis who support the withdrawal. I have read that defending this territory requires as many military personnel as settlers/residents and costs billions every year. In some ways the residents are victims of Israel's previous policies, as much as of the current ones, by believing they could settle there. It also seems obvious that mustering support against the withdrawal is futile at this point. Israel's existence, in the 'theater' of international law, however one-sided or unfair it is, unfortunately, depends on the continued support of the U.S.
The U.S. must, in this theater, make every effort, support every initiative/concession of either side, that appears to possibly lead to peace. So now after Sharon's persistence with this initiative, any U.S. president we have would support it. The 'test' might cost Israeli lives and could, justifiably, lead to escalation of retaliatory aggression on Israel's part. I pray it all goes in the other direction - peace.
To reiterate, I see no action that could stop this withdrawal. In the same vein, future events only will dictate statuses of the West Bank and Jerusalem. The dreadful history of my people leading up to and including the holocaust, made creation of a Jewish state seem a reasonable, justifiable cause. But I have some reservations about the 'fairness' of a Jewish state the same way I have concerns abiout the U.S. being a 'G_d-fearing', Christian country. Of course, if I could be in the minds and souls of the early Zionists, the time-worn idea that life is not fair comes forth loud and clear.


These days, running out of battery can be easily denominated as an "emergency". We depend on our phone for so many important things – work, family, transport, money – we can't simply enjoy the luxury of running out of battery. This device offers an innovative and convenient solution for such situations – a fast-charging, wireless-charged, miniature power bank that you can take anywhere to avoid unpleasant situations.
SUPER SMALL AND COMPACT: This device is so perfect for those slightly more critical situations because of its small size. Instead of carrying around a large power bank and cord, you can comfortable attach this mini power bank directly to your phone's charging input.
ADAPTABILITY WITH MULTIPLE MAGNETIC SOCKETS: Regardless of what phone you have (or anyone else in need), we have got you covered. These mini power banks are conveniently equipped with removable magnetic adaptors to fit any phone model – iPhone, micro-USB, USB-C, etc.
FAST CHARGING: The 1000mAh battery is able of pump battery into your phone at a surprising speed. Due to its small size, it's best used in emergencies, where a 25% or 50% charge can get the job done.
WIRELESS CHARGING: Charge your mini power banks in style and stress-free with the magnetic charging station. Simply place them on the station and relax while it does its thing!
- Wireless charging of the mini power banks with the magnetic charging station.
- Super suction technology to prevent the power bank from falling off (place phone sideways to remove power bank and avoid damage).
- The charging station is compatible with any other magnetic charging devices/ charging sockets.
- While the station is charging, you cannot simultaneously charge the mini power banks.
Big charging treasure: 5.7 x 3.1 x 0.6 in.
Small charging treasure: 2.8 x 1.2 x 0.5 in.

No rally is the same and you can join in as much or as little as you like but we had a lovely couple of things planned together such as the afternoon tea and a quiz night.
Saltwick bay for fossil hunting was another highlight along with visits to Robin Hoods Bay and Brunswick Bay.
Another major highlight of this rally was watching the full size replica of the Endeavour sail back into Whitby port.


Mike and Nat are bereft as Holywood Dan takes the Premier League football option and doesn't make it to the studio this week. To mask their distress they pretend it doesn't matter to them but the hurt is ever close to the surface. To help them through this difficult time they invite ESPN America head honcho (he honches heads you know) and College Football supremo Patrick 'Paddy the Brick' Sturgeon.

My research explores the growth and function of cranial tissues, particularly the structures involved in feeding. The biomechanical demands imposed by diet are known to affect chewing behavior and joint kinematics and, over time, the growth trajectories of the craniofacial skeleton and its associated soft tissues. By modulating diet, we are able to affect the overall growth of these tissues, bone quality in the jaws, integrity of the jaw joint (TMJ), dental occlusion, and masticatory muscle structure. I am particularly interested in how early life history events (such as weaning and dental eruption/replacement) affect feeding, growth, and adult morphological outcomes.
Current research themes include:
1) Variation in maturation rates among tissues of the masticatory complex and how this affects feeding performance and plasticity. What happens during the transition between infant-like suckling and adult-like chewing, and what are the structural and behavioral constraints that limit efficient feeding during early childhood?
2) The role of type I collagen in the growth of the craniofacial skeleton. How do collagen disorders, such as osteogenesis imperfecta, affect the facial phenotype? What behavioral and/or pharmaceutical interventions are effective in recovering the phenotype and function in these disorders?

Q: How to compose date from first NSDate and time from second NSDate into one NSDate? I need one thing:

*

*create one output NSDate that includes both of them with format: "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:00", where yyyy-MM-dd is from first NSDate and HH:mm:00 is from second NSDate

A: Used this code
+ (NSDate *)combineDate:(NSDate *)date withTime:(NSDate *)time
{
    NSCalendar *gregorian = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];

    unsigned unitFlagsDate = NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit |  NSDayCalendarUnit;
    NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [gregorian components:unitFlagsDate fromDate:date];
    unsigned unitFlagsTime = NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinuteCalendarUnit |  NSSecondCalendarUnit;
    NSDateComponents *timeComponents = [gregorian components:unitFlagsTime fromDate:time];

    [dateComponents setSecond:[timeComponents second]];
    [dateComponents setHour:[timeComponents hour]];
    [dateComponents setMinute:[timeComponents minute]];

    NSDate *combDate = [gregorian dateFromComponents:dateComponents];

    return combDate;
}

may help you

A: You can easily achieve this by creating a convenience initializer, like this:
convenience init(date: NSDate?, time: NSDate?) {
    var combinedDate = NSDate()

    if let date = date {
        if let time = time {
            let calendar = NSCalendar.currentCalendar()
            let timeComponents = calendar.components(.HourCalendarUnit | .MinuteCalendarUnit | .TimeZoneCalendarUnit, fromDate: time)
            var dateComponents = calendar.components(.YearCalendarUnit | .MonthCalendarUnit | .DayCalendarUnit, fromDate: date)
            dateComponents.hour = timeComponents.hour
            dateComponents.minute = timeComponents.minute
            dateComponents.second = 0
            dateComponents.timeZone = timeComponents.timeZone

            if let dateFromComponents = calendar.dateFromComponents(dateComponents) {
                combinedDate = dateFromComponents
            }
        }
    }

    self.init(timeInterval:0, sinceDate: combinedDate)
}

Basically it composes a date from components from two dates. For instance, it takes hours, minutes and seconds from the second NSDate called time, and year, month, and day from the first NSDate called date.
You can modify the components to make more or less accurate. You even extend the intializer to include customized units for the calendar.

A: Swift 5 version:
    init?(date: Date, time: Date) {
    let calendar = Calendar.current
    let timeComponents = calendar.dateComponents([.hour, .minute, .timeZone], from: time)
    var dateComponents = calendar.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: date)
    dateComponents.hour = timeComponents.hour
    dateComponents.minute = timeComponents.minute
    dateComponents.second = 0
    dateComponents.timeZone = timeComponents.timeZone

    guard let combined = calendar.date(from: dateComponents) else { return nil }
    self = combined
}

A: Assuming you have two strings:
NSDateFormatter *dateformate=[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[dateformate setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];

NSString *outputDate = [dateformate dateFromString:[@"2015-09-01" stringByAppendingString:@"08:33:00"]];

You know I get that a lot of things annoy me and I can't do much to stop them but I swear if I ever stop anything it'll be to abort the term "Politically Correct" from language. Sure it used to mean something good when it was first coined but now? It's just used by offensive idiots who can't make a simple change to avoid offending other people.
Look I'll be the first to admit that some people can jump the gun on a lot of things, I'm a gamer so I'd have to be insane not to admit that there are people out there who want things removed because it personally offends them but that's not what I'm talking about here, I'm talking about simple changes that don't effect us in the slightest, I'm talking about over 90% of main characters being white males (Yes it's this conversation again). I just want to know seriously and honestly, is it so hard for you to talk in a manner of which doesn't offend other people? By which I mean not using derogatory/racial terms. I am tired of the people who go on about how Johnny Storm being black means that now every work of art in existence is going to be changed now as if banning Gollywogs is going to led us into a 21st century version of 1984.
It's like Bob Chipman of Escapist pointed out, the people using this term are assholes using the idea of PC to paint themselves as white knights standing up to oppressive artistic fascism. You're not, you're children who are throwing tantrums because you've suddenly found out you have to share this toybox with other people. The way I see it is simple, I like certain things that can entertain me (read: books, movies, tv shows, video games) and I want everyone to be able to enjoy these things. We should want other people to since it doesn't impact us in any way.

I couldn't agree more. There's a matter of equality, and then there's just being picky and TRYING to find controversy.
So Nathan Drake is a white male, should we bitch and complain that he is not a black female? Or an Asian? Or Spaniard? Not at all. There is a petition open to make Link a black female in the upcoming Zelda game... uh... what? you want to entirely change an established character for the sake of....I'm not sure?
Likewise there are plenty of games that are not 'sexist' in any way, but the moment that even a single game has a female showing skin, the feminists come crawling out of the woodworks to cry misogyny.
There is a point where it can go too far, yes, but there is also a point where those who complain go way too far. If they had their way, every game would be full of emotionless, genderless beings and would be wholly uninteresting, which is completely unlike the varied and interesting world in which we live.
They have to decide, do they want their twisted version of equality in which everyone is the same? Or do they want a level of realism that actually has the kinds of variances that world has in it (including scantilly clad females, white males, etc.)
It's a tough rope to walk, but I agree that I hate hearing everyone cry foul the moment a female character with a low cut top is revealed in a game, or the second the main character ends up being another white male.

As far as gaming goes, there's no such thing as pleasing everybody. Someone is always going to step out and say "this is so sexist, change it now!", or "they made the hero caucasian, how typical change it!" .
It's almost like people are going out of their way to purposely look for a flaw. Why can't people just enjoy the game?

Yeah I can't stand that either. I think there should be a more diverse cast in gaming but it's silly to take every games character and go "Well why is Joel white? That's offensive!" The thing is I hate PC on both sides, I hate it when a game like Far Cry 4 is being accused of being racist from the box art alone and I hate it when something is changed in anything and you get these idiots going "Well if Johnny Storm is black now I guess we can have a white Black Panther!"
NOT THE SAME THING. I'd just like a game to be held on it's own merits since it just draw into games reviews, don't get me wrong if a review like say the person from Gamespot who reviewed GTA 5 chooses to draw into some of the controversy say for instance their a woman so they didn't find it as enjoyable as say a man then fine but you get these idiots going "Rate Uncharted badly because it doesn't have woman as a main character!" that's silly, for one Amy Henning was the creative director for the freaking game. Sure Amy hates women, in fact she hates them so much she hatched a genius plan to be born as one.
Although Assassin's Creed Unity annoyed me. One male character ok that's fine everyone's a dude in gaming, second one is a coincidence and the third one's a serial killing getting a little weird and then ok the fourth character's a guy too. What I'm getting at is the problem with Unity isn't that there's no woman, it's that everyone literally looks the same. All four of them look the same and well put it like this.
If Ubisoft is going to claim to be multicultural then shouldn't they be the guys saying "Let's make these four characters look different" but yeah I agree pushing female characters would be silly. Although when I say PC I mean people saying rude and horrible things and then claiming that anyone who tells them off is pushing PC onto them but I hate this too. We shouldn't make games creators too afraid of being attacked for making their own work.
Jacky said: ↑
Personally I think it's up to the creator but it'd be great to see some variation in gaming. I mean we've had a lot of AC Games so it'd be nice to have one female character in the main series.
Timewarp said: ↑
As a female i would like to agree, however it wouldn't stop me from buying the game, nor would i run around throwing a fit because their isn't. Unlike some gamers out there who feel the need to do so about everything.
Well not every game but well like I mentioned AC:Unity had four characters and they all looked the same.
Turns out that all four characters are actually Arno (the main character). When you are playing the game, you are always Arno, so when you play in co-op, everyone sees themselves as Arno, which is why not much development went into making each of these 4 very different from one another.
So that gives the lazy theory a lot more credit.
Highly agree.
It's similar to in Watch Dogs, where the player character is always Aiden, but in other people's games, you appear as a random pedestrian. It's to make the experience seamless for each of the player characters. They remain Arno consistently and the story is constantly theirs, even with the multiplayer. Every player can be the lead without actually having four leads. I think it works for the flow of the story.
Trust me, after seeing this game in action, I can honestly say that nothing about it says "lazy".
Raincoat PSLS Level: Bronze

I don't mind if a game is mainly or even all male oriented. I see games as somebody's story and I'm just playing through it as their character they created. I do enjoy a variety, but hey, if I got upset every time there isn't a playable female character, I would miss out on a lot of amazing games.
However, games where the main character is supposed to be "you," I do appreciate when I can make a female character, or at least have the choice.
Wait so the way it's going to work is a transition in and out of multiplayer and single-player? See now that explains why all the characters are male why haven't they told us that? This habit of Ubisoft withholding certain information that explains key decisions is not doing them any good. Although to be fair with Far Cry 4 it should have been obvious looking at the FC3 box art and seeing that the guy on the front is the bad guy Vaas.
See this is what I hate about gaming, you've seen it in action so you know there's nothing lazy about AC: Unity but we don't see that. All we see is the excuses Ubisoft came up with so we're left in this vacuum.
Chandler Wood likes this.
Agreed. It's a really tough industry to be a part of, but at the same time I love it and wouldn't trade it.
Timewarp likes this.
Yeah. I think from a consumer standpoint it's hard to know what is and isn't plausible. At times they lie so much that it's getting hard to tell the truth from the lies. I don't want to hate companies like Ubisoft and EA, I want to be able to enjoy their games.
But you're right I wouldn't trade it for any other industry, the games industry may have it's problems but it's improving. I think moving forward as far as being politically correct goes I think we have to maybe think about if we're bashing an otherwise good game and I think the games companies need to consider what information they put out to the public.
Really what annoys me is ultimately I have no clue what is going on in gaming and I am fine with saying that. I want to know. The thing is telling the truth is less suspicious then not saying anything. If I see something that belongs to you Chandler that's broken and I take it so I can fix it and when you ask where it is I go "I haven't seen it. I don't know" surely that's worst then just telling you the truth. Then again delays don't need excuses. Some guys seem to believe games companies can predict the future.

Kamala Harris Buries Joe Biden
Last night Kamala Harris may have derailed the former vice president's campaign nearly as quickly as it started, and that's a great thing. As the front runner since even before he announced his bid for the presidency Joe Biden has been the front runner winning nearly every poll. Last night it was an uphill battle in the democratic debate where he may have been assaulted and he doesn't even know it. That lead may not be as safe as it was prior to the debate.
Will Donald Trump be re-elected in 2020?
Yes 94%, 1918 votes
1918 votes 94%
1918 votes - 94% of all votes
No 6%, 120 votes
120 votes 6%
120 votes - 6% of all votes
Undecided 1%, 12 votes
12 votes 1%
12 votes - 1% of all votes
March 22, 2019 - December 1, 2020
This morning may be the birth of another front runner and there may be a different narrative to how people perceive Biden. Kamala Harris dragged Biden though the coals by bringing up his history working with segregationists on the issue of school busing.
"As the only black person on this stage, I would like to speak on the issue of race." – Kamala Harris to Biden. "I do not think you are a racist, but it is hurtful to hear you praise segregationists and oppose busing. That little girl who was bused to school was me."
During a fundraising event last week Joe Biden recalled working with segregationists in Congress decades ago in order to "get things done." His remarks were quickly criticized for sanitizing racist politicians.
I don't like Joe Biden and do not like his history with certain people or who he's aligned with, he's trash to me. However, with that being said, Biden may be someone I don't like but he does make a legitimate point when dealing with horrible people. Kamala may be taking shots for political gain and personal ones at that but what happens if she's president?
Well, Kamala what you'd have to do if hell froze over and you actually win the presidential race is just that, be diplomatic. In positions of power, especially political, throughout history one thing is evident, everyone must work with people you dislike and don't agree with no matter how evil to make this world a better place.
Donald Trump does that on a daily scale with North Korea, Russia, Iraq, Syria, Palestine and many more. Trump has a gigantic ego but has made more progress on foreign policy virtually than anyone before him in coming to the table and talking. That's diplomacy! President Trump must be ecstatic that they're eating each other alive. That's great news for the Trump Administration.
In politics, you have to work with terrible horrific people and that does include, sadly, downright racist people to get things done especially when they possess power. Now sacrificing the greater good to please someone like that when you get nothing in return is never a good look. If you can't work with them you must be able to work around them to get things accomplished.
Was Kamala Harris playing the race card? Should she have brought It up? I don't think so and yes she should have, but painting a narrative that may be slightly disingenuous not so good. She does have one thing that I agree with and that's her quote to Biden later on in that conversation where she told him, "There are moments in history where states failed to preserve the civil rights of all people."
It is the duty of our local, state and federal governments not to forget their commitment to representing the people of this great country. It is also their responsibility to ensure forcing advancement for the betterment of the individual is key in preserving the rights guaranteed to us and protected by the greatest document in history, the United States Constitution.
The Constitution has never been intended so racist and evil people can manipulate it and disregard but only apply it when they need to justify something that's completely wrong and distorted.
Kamala Hartis sent this tweet out last night, OUCH. I have never seen Joe Biden so distraught and get his ass handed to him as Kamala did to him, a beautiful thing though. He was Flustered.

Title: Immuno-mimetic Deep Neural Networks
Biomimetics has played a key role in the evolution of artificial neural networks. Thus far, in-silico metaphors have been dominated by concepts from neuroscience and cognitive psychology. In this talk we introduce a different type of biomimetic model, one that borrows concepts from the immune system, for designing robust deep neuralnetworks. This immuno-mimetic model leads to a new computational framework for robustification of deep neural networks against adversarial attacks. Within this Immuno-Net framework we define a robust adaptive immune-inspired learning system (RAILS) that emulates, in silico, the adaptive biological mechanisms of B-cells that are used to defend a mammalian host against pathogenic attacks.

Title: More Is Different: ViTAE elevates the art of computer vision
Big data contains a tremendous amount of dark knowledge. The community has realized that effectively exploring and using such knowledge is essential to achieving superior intelligence. How can we effectively distill the dark knowledge from ultra-large-scale data?
One possible answer is: "through Transformers". Transformers have proven their prowess at extracting and harnessing the dark knowledge from data. This is because more is truly different when it comes to Transformers. In this talk, I will showcase our recent work on transformers named ViTAE, on many dimensions of "more" including: model parameters, labeled and unlabeled data, prior knowledge, computing resource, tasks, and modalities.
Specifically, ViTAE has more model parameters and more input modality support; ViTAE can absorb and encode more data to extract more dark knowledge; ViTAE is able to adopt more prior knowledge in the form of biases and constraints; ViTAE can be easily adapted to larger-scale parallel computing resources to achieve faster training.
ViTAE has been applied to many computer vision tasks and has proven its promise, such as image recognition, object detection, semantic segmentation, image matting, pose estimation, scene text understanding, and remote sensing.

Title: Democratizing the Full Data Analytics Software Stack
Data analysis and machine learning is a complex task, involving a full stack of hardware and software systems, from the usual compute systems, cloud computing and supercomputing systems, to data collection systems, data storage and database systems, data mining and machine learning systems, and data visualization and interaction systems. A realistic and highly efficient data analytics and AI application often requires a smooth collaboration among the different systems, which becomes a big technical hurdle, especially to the non-computing professionals. The history of computing may be viewed as a technical democratizing processing, which in turn brings huge benefit to the society and its economy. The democratizing process for data analysis and machine learning has started to appear in various aspects, but it still needs research and development in multiple directions, including human-machine natural interaction, automated system selection and deployment, and automated workflow execution and optimization. It can be expected that this democratizing process will continue, and the research and development efforts by the computer scientists are much needed.

Title: Multi-objective Learning and Its Applications
Most, if not all, machine learning problems are defined by a single loss function. Yet the vast majority of these loss functions have two or more terms summed together through hyper-parameters. A closer examination of these loss functions should reveal that there are in essence two or more conflicting objectives that a loss function tries to minimise, e.g., accuracy and regularisation. This talk treats a multi-objective problem as a multi-objective problem, rather than trying to combined them into a single loss function through a weighted sum. While the weighted sum approach might appear simpler, it does require additional time and effort to tune hyper-parameters, which could be seen as the coefficients to balace different objectives. The talk describes how existing multi-objective evolutionary algorithms could be used as multi-objective learning algorithms, the natural link between multi-objective learning and ensemble learning, and selected examples of multi-objective learning in different domains. It is argued that multi-objective learning can be an effective approach towards achieving different trade-off in various practical learning scenarios.

The first step in treatment resides in recognition of the symptoms and seeking appropriate consultation. Oral and maxillofacial surgery specialists offer consultation and treatment options.
In addition to a detailed history, Dr. Sedaros and his oral surgery associates will assess the anatomic relationships in the maxillofacial region. With cephalometic (skull x-ray) analysis, the doctors can ascertain the level of obstruction. Sometimes a naso-pharyngeal exam is done with a flexible fiber-optic camera. To confirm the amount of cardiovascular compromise and decreased oxygenation levels, a sleep study may be recommended to monitor an individual overnight.

Q: Save or update data when custom post published I have metabox on my custom post screen.

How to save them when any of them are checked and then use or echo those checked offers to display on single.php?
my code for metabox is
function op_register_menu_meta_box() {
    add_meta_box(
        'op-menu-meta-box-id', // Metabox ID
         esc_html__( 'Custom offers Checklist (select any 2)', 'text-domain' ), //Metabox Title
        'op_render_menu_meta_box', // Metabox Callback Function
        'listing' // Place Where this Metbax Should Appear
        );
}
add_action( 'add_meta_boxes_listing', 'op_register_menu_meta_box' ); //Metabox Hook

function op_render_menu_meta_box() { // Metabox Callback Function Called
    // Metabox content
    $getPostsToSelect = get_posts(
                        array(
                            'post_type' => 'offers',
                            'posts_per_page' => 3,
                        ));
    foreach ($getPostsToSelect as $aPostsToSelect) {
    wp_nonce_field( basename( __FILE__ ), 'prfx_nonce' ); //Adds a valid nonce for security (1. Filename should be unique, 2. Object name should be diffrent for forms)
    ?>

        <input
          type='checkbox'
          name='offers_meta'
          class='postsToSelect'
          value='<?php echo $aPostsToSelect->ID ?>'
         />
        <?php echo $aPostsToSelect->post_title;

?>

    <?php
}
}

A:
How to save them when any of them are checked

You can use update_post_meta(), like so:
add_action( 'save_post', 'op_save_offers_meta', 10, 2 );
function op_save_offers_meta( $post_id, $post ) {
    // Make sure that we can save the meta data.
    if ( ( empty( $post_id ) || empty( $post ) || ( 'listing' !== get_post_type( $post ) ) )
    || ( empty( $_POST['post_ID'] ) || $_POST['post_ID'] != $post_id || ! isset( $_POST['offers_meta'] ) )
    || ( empty( $_POST['offers_meta_nonce'] ) || ! wp_verify_nonce( $_POST['offers_meta_nonce'], 'save-offers-meta' ) )
    || ( ! current_user_can( 'edit_post', $post_id ) ) ) {
        return;
    }

    $offers_ids = wp_parse_id_list( $_POST['offers_meta'] );
    if ( ! empty( $offers_ids ) ) {
        update_post_meta( $post_id, '_offers_ids', $offers_ids );
    } else {
        delete_post_meta( $post_id, '_offers_ids' );
    }
}

I have also altered your op_render_menu_meta_box():
function op_render_menu_meta_box( $post ) { // Metabox Callback Function Called
    // Get the selected 'offers' (array of post IDs).
    $offers_ids = (array) get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_offers_ids', true );

    // Displays a nonce field, without referrer field.
    wp_nonce_field( 'save-offers-meta', 'offers_meta_nonce', false );

    // Metabox content
    $getPostsToSelect = get_posts(
                        array(
                            'post_type' => 'offers',
                            'posts_per_page' => 3,
                        ));
    foreach ($getPostsToSelect as $aPostsToSelect) {
    ?>

        <input
          type='checkbox'
          name='offers_meta[]'
          class='postsToSelect'
          value='<?php echo $aPostsToSelect->ID ?>'
          <?php checked( true, in_array( $aPostsToSelect->ID, $offers_ids ) ); ?>
         />
        <?php echo $aPostsToSelect->post_title;

?>

    <?php
}
}

and then use or echo those checked offers

You can use get_post_meta() to retrieve the 'offers' (i.e. array of post IDs) — just like in the above op_render_menu_meta_box() function, and do a standard The Loop to display the post details. Example:
$post_id = get_the_ID();

// Get the selected 'offers' (array of post IDs).
$offers_ids = (array) get_post_meta( $post_id, '_offers_ids', true );

$q = new WP_Query( [
    'post_type' => 'offers',
    'post__in'  => $offers_ids,
] );

if ( $q->have_posts() ) {
    while ( $q->have_posts() ) {
        $q->the_post();
    ?>

<?php the_title(); ?>

<?php the_content(); ?>

    <?php
    }
}

wp_reset_query();


The 2017 increase in minimum wage appears to have impacted small business owners across the Pacific Northwest region.
During 2017, business to business printer, Becky Raney, COO of Bellingham's Print and Copy Factory found their sales grew more with their national market compared to their local clientele. She attributes this to their customers' higher labor and insurance costs, such as manufacturers where labor costs matter to be competitive in the national and international markets. "Businesses feel the need to pull back a bit for security of survival," said Raney.
"Sometimes it is hard to see the forest for the trees," said Stephanie Hamilton, Executive Director of the Anacortes Chamber of Commerce in a statement earlier this December. "I do think that the minimum raise hike has hit businesses harder than I am sure those who voted for it intended." Having said that, she says, she's seeing 'greater collaboration between businesses and more idea sharing.' Hamilton emphasizes shopping local. The quality of customer service provided by small business owners, Hamilton says, cannot be found 'by shopping online'.


Ryan Improving – We Got This!
We made it through the weekend… and that's no small feat in the hospital. The best one can hope for is for the status quo until Monday morning when it returns to full staff. Fortunately, this happened.
Ryan is up and working out this morning in his hospital room.
Some early morning labs came back and everything is moving in the right direction. I'm now able to start planning for his (eventual) discharge. I'll become borderline obnoxious in pressing the doctors to give me a compelling reason to deny/delay discharge. That's not to say there won't be, but every day minute he stays in this environment exposes him to illnesses separate from his original condition. It all comes down to risk versus benefit.
To explain what I mean by "pressing", I (essentially) ordered an IV midline to be placed today. Although seemingly a tad irked at me, the doctor (a.k.a., Hospitalist) signed off on it. [Update:] Subsequently, I learned that the kidney doctor had already ordered this, so perhaps I wasn't as influential as my ego had thought. Eh, I'll just pretend I was.
Once home, his recovery will continue for weeks. We already know that we'll be administering IV antibiotics for another 10 – 14 days (hence, the midline placement) as well as periodic blood work. These kidney/bladder infections are slow to bounce back. It take months.
My spirits were lifted — more than written words can express — when I had a moment to check on the support for the documentary being produced about Ryan, called Storming: The Ryan Diviney Story. This film means everything to me and my family in our relentless pursuit to keep Ryan relevant. Your willingness to share (on social media) the documentary's trailer inspires us. For those who haven't watched it yet, it's worth your while to understand the importance to us. Also, please excuse me for beating the drum to SHARE it directly from the film's promotional website.
If you've already done this, do it again. Then again. And again. This campaign began trending last week and continues to this time. Please help us keep it this way. Here is the direct link: Storming: The Ryan Diviney Story.
In my borderline obnoxious way, please remember to share (from the film's website). Unlike the medical community, I sense you won't become a tad irked at me. Anyhow, I hope I'm able to convey to you that, despite all that is going on right now, this becomes more important to me.
You see, I fear just how many more times Ryan can continue to recover from these setbacks. My instincts tell me that time is of the essence.
Now, back to my (medical) goal for the day of getting Ryan discharged. Arriving home is, of course, the goal… but it's not easy when we walk through our home's door. I become obsessed with my mission to sanitize and sterilize everything. Even the dogs are not safe from my quest! First, it's all the items that came back with us from the hospital. This includes both Ryan and me getting an antibacterial shower. I fear inadvertently bringing germs into our home. Honestly, I'm not normally a germaphobe, but hospitals give me the heebie-jeebies.
I can practically see those microscopic bastards crawling around everywhere I look.
It might not be right away but I'll be sure to let you know within a day when he gets home. Please be sure to check back for updates. In the meantime, I again want to let you know how deeply touched we are that you — and people like you — continue to love and care for Ryan.
We need you. For Ryan's sake.
UPDATE! Ryan is cleared for discharge later today. Unless something unexpected crops up, we'll be home by tonight!
Wishing, hoping and praying for all the best for Ryan and his family! Everyone should have a health care advocate as devoted as you! Always in my prayers!
Hugs and Prayers for your successful journey home GERM FREE! with no setbacks!!
So happy that Ryan can get out of the hospital today, Ken!! I chalk it up to your meticulous care of him. Also thank you for the reminder to share the link for Ryan's documentary. Keep it up, we need these reminders to stay on point in our quest to help make this film happen. Ryan deserves no less. Sending love and hugs, lifting up you and your family in prayer.
Prayers for a smooth transition from hospital to home. Prayers for your strength to get everything "cleaned up" and a few moments of peace this evening after an exhausting day!
Thinking of & praying for you all from my hospital room as I recover from pneumonia. I too plan to sanitize as soon as I get home as my Dad is a germaphobe!
Ali, I'm saddened to hear you're ill. Keep your sights set on returning home.
Just checking in on ya'll. How's Ryan doing?


When a major fire raged through the Grade One-listed Cupola House in Bury St Edmunds in 2012, the fire service called upon local specialist builders Seamans Building to make the building safe. After bringing in long-reach demolition plant to help secure the structure, Seamans embarked upon clearing the debris, preparing the site for surveys and erecting a temporary scaffolded structure to preserve the integrity of what remained.
Architects Purcell then began work, in partnership with English Heritage, St Edmundsbury Borough Council and a team of specialist consultants, to stabilise the surviving built fabric and reconstruct the lost historic features. Using all the available information about the building, which was built in 1693, the architectural team recreated the principal spaces and reintroduced many of the building's architectural details, including panelling, cornices, architraves and the staircase.
Following the tender process, Seamans Building were appointed as main contractor for the reconstruction work. Many of the company's directly-employed skilled craftsmen were involved on the project and it was an excellent opportunity for their six apprentices to experience working on an historic structure.
The company had already received local awards for work on two Grade One-listed buildings – Woodbridge Tidemill and the Wolsey Art Gallery next to Ipswich's Christchurch Mansion – however, the challenges and scale of working on the confined site in the centre of Bury St Edmunds tested the resolve and skills of all involved.
Throughout the project Seamans worked closely with the consultancy team, in particular Purcell and structural engineers Richard Jackson Engineering Consultants, to construct a building that replicates the original structure whilst being upgraded to cater for current building and fire regulation standards.
Wherever possible the original fabric that survived the fire has been salvaged and re-used. These include elements of the stairs, panel mouldings, a significant amount of the exterior cornice and the metal fireplace grates which have been fitted back into the reconstructed chimneys.
A new steel frame, which has been intricately threaded through what remains of the original timber frame, is completely concealed within walls and behind the wall linings. It has been fitted to distribute the weight of the new and surviving structures evenly over the original basement.
In May the new timber-framed cupola was hoisted into the air and placed atop the roof, between the two towering chimneys. Both required considerable reconstruction after the fire left them in an unstable condition.
The project was completed in July and is awaiting its new tenants.

Q: How to test Data in UI Testing in XCTest Framework? By the help of XCTest and Accessibility technology we are able to test UI and able to record UI Flow . So is there any procedure to test Data which are coming from the Server side in the subclass of XCTestCase , which help in the data validation as well as UI Validation at same time .

A: If you want to test data coming from your server, this should be tested outside of a UI test. This would usually be tested completely separately from the client application.
XCTest does not allow the user to access any data directly from the target application, and only provides an interface to UI elements.


Mash most of the raspberries with a fork (or your fist) and mix with the yogurt, saving a few for decoration. Then break up the four NEOH bars, put them into dessert glasses and add the yogurt and raspberry mix. Now you can get creative: decorate the mix with the blueberries and the remaining raspberries and then scatter a few cocoa nibs on top. If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can also add a dash of yacon or agave syrup.


Place the slices of bread in your toaster and toast for 2-3 minutes. Alternatively you can toast them in your oven at 375F degrees for 10-15 minutes. I chose to use my bread toaster since it was easier and faster, however, the bread will become soft after you place the olive mixture on the bread. If you like your bread crunchy I suggest you use your oven. Place the sun dried tomatoes in your food processor and pulse until smooth. Spread the sun dried tomato spread over half the bread slices and rub the garlic over the other half of the bread. Set aside. In a large bowl add the rest of the ingredients and mix throughly. Add about 2 tablespoons of the mixture over each slice of bread and serve.
