Four hours on a 737 and eight more on a 777 brought us to London Heathrow airport. Two hours on a bus brought us to Bournemouth at about 2PM Tuesday, which was 6 AM the next morning by our bodies' clocks. It was essential to stay awake until the evening, to have some chance of being awake during meetings the next day. So we walked around Bournemouth, trying our best to disregard the rain as it waxed and waned.
Here we are at the entrance to the main tourist pier on the beach in Bournemouth, near the southeast corner of England. My colleagues Tony Schwarz and Sona Parikh. The pier itself was only open to people taking cruises.
A typical street view in Bournemouth. Here is one of many traditional English pubs, which seem to compete on the basis of having the most bizarre name. Here's the Goat & Tricycle. My favorite, which wasn't as photogenic, was the Slug & Lettuce in London.
This pile of a building faces the beach in Bournemouth. It's currently a hotel, and somewhat run-down looking (though it's hard to tell from this picture).
Here's the pier from down the beachside cliff. Note the white cliff in the background, in the general direction of Dover.
Eventually the sprinkle of rain turned into a brief downpour. We took refuge in the lobby of an office building. It took only a few minutes for the rain to subside.
By then it was late enough, so we returned to the hotel (which I neglected to photograph) and showered. We walked back into town and chose a random Italian restaurant for dinner. Then we walked back and crashed.
Early the next morning (though none of us were able to sleep late enough for it to seem very early) we met in the hotel restaurant for breakfast, and then were picked up by the head of the little company we were investigating. We spent the morning in a conference room in the building where they rent a few offices, then he and a couple of his engineers took us out for lunch at a pub in the next town over. It was a locally famous pub, dating back to 17-eighty-something. Pretty decent food, considering. I had a pint of the excellent local bitters, which turned out to be a mistake since it was pretty hard to stay awake that afternoon. We saw various demos and asked a bunch of questions. When all that needed to be said and done had been, the boss drove us to the train station, where we caught a train for London, where we could catch a train for St. Albans, near our next day's destination.
We decided to stop for dinner in London, since we had no idea whether dinner would be easy to get in St. Albans. We walked out of the train station, and saw these two restaurants almost right away. The "Fishcotheque" name caught my eye and I snapped this picture. We walked on for a while before deciding to go back and eat at the Tandoori place we'd spotted first.
Then we taxi'd over to another train station (King's Cross station) where we could catch the train for St. Albans, rode the train for about an hour, and then taxi'd over to the hotel (The Queen's Moat House, which, again, I neglected to photograph). It was late, so we crashed again.
In the morning, we ate at the hotel again and then taxi'd over to the other vendor's offices. We were done there by noon. The sales/marketing guy we'd been mostly dealing with took us to lunch at yet another pub. The Fox, not a very clever name or, for that matter, a very good pub. They got my order wrong (chicken instead of lamb chops). Service at English restaurants is slow, and (as we eventually figured out) they won't bring the check until you ask for it. At English pubs, you have to order at the bar, though they do bring the food out (eventually).
Then he dropped us at the train station, where we headed for London again. After checking in at the Hilton Islington we went touristing. Sona and I went walking in the most touristy area, while Tony made a pilgrimage to Harrod's (department store slash palace of retail) to buy gifts for his wife and daughter.
Here's a somewhat typical view of the area. Note the double-decker bus and the callboxes (tardises?). If I ever found out what that building was, I've forgotten already.
They have a bunch of statues in this area, mostly of generals and kings. Here's one.
Here's the famous mumble-mumble Square. The place is lousy with pigeons, thanks presumably to the pigeon-food vendor off-screen to the left.
Sona stopped to buy a refrigerator magnet. That's a museum in the background.
Seen from the square, we think this is Big Ben (though we read in the tour book that Big Ben is actually the name of the big bell inside the tower, not the clock tower itself, which is part of the Houses of Parliament).
A couple of government buildings off the square. Very Londonesque scene.
This fence isolates the block of Downing Street that includes #10. The building here is some government offices, across the street from #10. The funny angle is the only one I could find that wasn't cluttered with tourists and/or guards.
This enormous Ferris wheel, the British Airways London Eye, was constructed for the millenium celebration. Note how the construction resembles a bicycle wheel more than a typical Ferris wheel. Each of those cars is large enough for at least a dozen people. This wheel doesn't spin like an amusement-park Ferris wheel, it crawls around slowly, more like a top-floor rotating restaurant. I took a bunch of pictures of it from many angles, most of which I will spare you.
A small part of the Houses of Parliament. I never found a good angle to capture the whole majestic pile.
Westminster Abbey, or maybe the associated church.
More of the Abbey. We met up with Tony again here, and he schlepped his purchases around for the rest of the day.
The foreground wall is part of the Abbey, I believe, and the tower is a prominent part of the Houses of Parliament.
There's that wheel again. The dark building on the left is just being built now, to house people associated with Parliament.
It was a beautiful sunny day, and the sun gave the clock tower an amazing golden glow. This picture doesn't begin to capture it.
Here's the full view of the wheel. It sits on the shore of the Thames. The building behind it is not part of the wheel, it is held up by those two white cylinders.
Here's a (telephoto) closeup of the hub of the wheel.
And here's a view of the wheel's base, where they fill up the cars. The cruise ships are just passing by.
We then walked down the sidewalk on the south bank of the Thames, hoping to find a restaurant.
We found lots of ornate streetlamp poles, like this one.
We found some Architecture with a capital Ar.
We found a number of ships that had been permanently docked and converted into clubs/bars/restaurants, but none of them looked too appealing for dinner. Getting tired of walking, we checked a sketchy subway map and decided to walk to the nearest bridge (the next bridge would have been the (new) London Bridge) to the other side of the Thames and look in that vicinity for dinner.
From the bridge, I shot this fast-moving tour boat.
However, the plan didn't work. We found no suitable restaurant on the other side of the river, either. So we hiked back to the Waterloo subway station and took the tube back to the hotel. We found lots of restaurants in the few blocks between the station and the hotel. We ate at the "Art and Zen", an artsy restaurant/gallery.
Here's my after-dinner attempt at the art of the still life. The champagne bottle was actually an oil lamp serving as centerpiece. The shaded ring in my Bailey's Irish Creme is just a shadow from the rim of the snifter.
We got back onto our tired feet and returned to the hotel, where we'd arranged for a taxi at 5:30 AM for our hour-long ride to Heathrow. After a brief snooze, the taxi and another couple of long flights brought us uneventfully back to San Diego by about noon. Which felt like no familiar time of day at all.


1.) Phil Rychcik, who is first of all, my personal assistant, and secondly an assistant to a few others on our administrative staff. If you call Heaven's Family, Phil will most likely be the person with whom you'll speak. He is Mr. Congeniality. Phil is smarter than me, with a Bachelor's in Communications and a Masters in Education.
3.) Bruce and Patty Harris, who live in Rye, Colorado. Bruce has been traveling with me to Myanmar for years, and he has served on our board of trustees since 2013. Bruce and Patty now direct our Widows & Abandoned Women Ministry, and Bruce will soon be overseeing the Myanmar division of our Micro-Loan Ministry under director Dan Steward. Bruce and Patty are among our special staff of "Heaven's Family Heroes" who work for free, supporting themselves by means of a network of four mental healthcare facilities that they own and manage (which obviously makes them both smarter than me)!
4.) Carmen Parise, who recently began directing our Disabilities Ministry. Carmen is currently on leave as a pilot for United Airlines, but he can fly for free as a passenger anywhere in the world. That is a very nice perk for one of our ministry directors, who must all travel overseas several times a year. Carmen also stands among "Heaven's Family's Heroes," working without remuneration. And he is certainly another person on our staff who is smarter than me. He's been piloting Boeing 737s all over the world for years! I've only been a passenger!
5.) Steve Kowalke, who lives in Minneapolis, joined our staff late last year as VP of Operations. Steve retired in 2005 from a 25-year career at Target Corporation, 10 of which he served as Treasurer of the $50 billion retailer. His plan was to focus on things that mattered more to him than making money. For a while, he held the position of Interim CEO at Children's Home Society, one of the largest international adoption agencies in the United States. Like everyone else in this list, Steve is another one of our staff who is smarter than me, holding a Bachelor's of Business Administration (Finance and Management) and an MBA in General Finance.
I once heard that the secret to success in business is to always hire people who are smarter than yourself. So that is the advice I'm following, thinking that it probably also applies to the nonprofit world!
Some other big news is that we've laid to rest our 13-year policy of paying for our fundraising, general, and management expenses by asking people to give to our General Fund.
As announced in November and December emails and letters to all of our supporters and friends, we'll no longer be asking a few people to pay for all of our essential administrative expenses. Rather, based on the biblical principles of fairness and personal responsibility, as well as common sense, we're going to use a small percentage of every contribution to fund our essential fundraising, general and management expenses—firmly believing that those who benefit from services rendered should be the ones who should pay for them.
Although this may sound like big news, it is not all that big of a change. We've always had fundraising and administrative expenses. All we're doing now is spreading the burden of those expenses from the shoulders of a few to everyone who benefits from the hard work of our devoted administrative staff members (not to mention all the other supportive services, like printing, postal, banking and so on) that cost Heaven's Family tens of thousands of dollars every year.
I've detailed more good reasons for this policy change in my November e-Teaching. If you haven't read it, I hope you will.
I'm happy to report that 2015 was our most fruitful year yet. We've touched more lives around the world than any previous year, all due to the financial investments made by friends of Heaven's Family that totaled a little more than $3 million (based on projections made as this magazine went to print in December).
Our mission is to help build the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ on earth. We do that by linking needs that are of concern to Christ with resources that He has entrusted to those who love Him. Through strategic partnerships, Heaven's Family invests in reaching the unreached with the gospel, discipling Christ's followers, and serving the suffering—particularly those whom He referred to as the "least of these" (Matt. 25:31-46; 28:19-20).
First, we desire to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ who bear fruit for His glory, knowing that He rewards faithfulness with fruitfulness (Luke 16:10, 19:17; John 15:8).
Second, we desire that our fruitfulness would never cease to increase. Our job is not complete until (1) the gospel has been heard by everyone, (2) Christ's followers are thoroughly equipped with biblical understanding and fully obedient to His commandments, and (3) the needs of widows, orphans, and all the "least of these" have been met, and whenever possible, through sustainable means.
Third, we desire to always operate as Jesus' loving family, caring and sharing through personal relationships among staff, supporters, and those whom we together serve.

Q: My 16-year-old Quarter Horse mare refuses to sidepass under saddle. Whenever I push on her with my heel, she thinks that I want her to go faster. What can I do to help her understand what I want?
A: Some horses are what I call "forward-aholics"—they constantly have "Go!" on their brain. This is a very common problem. You need to teach your mare that when you apply pressure to her sides with both legs, it means go forward; if you apply pressure to her side with one leg, it means move laterally.
To keep your horse's forward tendencies in check, and eliminate her confusion, teach her to sidepass on the fence, first yielding her hindquarters and then redirecting her energy sideways. The fence will stop your horse from walking forward, and yielding her hindquarters will set her feet in motion so you don't have to create lateral movement from a standstill; you'll just redirect her energy sideways.
Walk your horse along the fence with both hands on the reins. Keep your reins short enough that your hands are in front of the saddle horn.
Tip your horse's nose slightly toward the fence, and put your outside leg back by her flank to yield her hindquarters.
If you're going counter-clockwise around the arena, you'll tip your horse's nose toward the fence with your right rein, and at the same time press with your right leg back near her flank to ask her to disengage her hindquarters.
As soon as your horse yields her hindquarters 90 degrees, immediately move your leg up to her ribcage and apply pressure.
The key is to make it a smooth transition so she doesn't stop moving her feet in between the hindquarter yield and the sidepass; it should all flow together.
At the same time that you press with your leg in the middle of your horse's ribcage, sit on your outside seatbone and point with your inside rein in the direction you want your horse to go. This will create an "open door" for her to move through.
To sidepass to the left, gently press your horse's ribcage with your right leg, and open the door with your left rein and leg to give her direction. In the beginning, it will help to tip your horse's nose slightly to the outside (opposite of the direction she's going) to help her hindquarters stay in a straight line.
When your horse takes one step sideways, immediately release all pressure from your leg and reins and let her stop to rest. Make sure that when she stops, she's facing the fence straight—her hindquarters and shoulders should be in a straight line.
Don't be surprised if the sidepass isn't pretty the first time you ask for it. The first time you teach a horse something is what I call the concept lesson—your goal is to get her to understand what you're asking her to do. Once she understands the concept, you can start working toward perfection.
Let your horse rest for 10 to 15 seconds, and then walk her off in the same direction. Walk 20 to 30 feet and then repeat the exercise.
It's important to allow your horse to rest after each sidepass so she knows she gets a reward for trying and moving off of your leg.
As your horse gets better, you can start asking her to take two steps, then three, et cetera, until she can sidepass down the fence 10 to 15 feet.
The secret to sidepassing is finding a starting point and then building off of it. One correct step is plenty for the first couple of lessons. After six or seven lessons, your horse will be able to easily sidepass 10 steps.
Teach your horse to sidepass from the ground first so she will already understand the concept of the lesson when you attempt it in the saddle, ensuring you'll run into less resistance.
When your horse can sidepass on the fence well, you can use the same concept to teach her how to sidepass away from the fence. But don't move off the fence too quickly. You want to make sure your horse understands that when you apply pressure to her ribcage with one leg, you want her to move laterally, not forward.

This article makes it sound so easy. I will have to reread it a few times, and then go out and practice.
a lot of great info!
love all the tips. I had to do the same using the fence.
Great advice. Fences can be so handy!

Anna Ayala sued Wendy's because she claimed that there was a finger in her chili.
After a huge investigation, it turns out that she planted the finger in the chili.
Here's a lesson to all morons: stop throwing body parts in your fast food and suing.
Or at least, COOK the body parts. Detectives knew something was weird because Wendy's chili is cooked at 170 degrees and the finger was being served raw. Plus, the finger was from a friend of her family. Duh. You KNOW the police can identify the finger because a finger has FINGERPRINTS!
This stupid lawsuit has a happy ending... Wendy's gave out free desserts to win back customers and Anna Ayala was sentenced to 9 years in prison.


Marketplace Pulse reported recently that only about 15% of new sellers on Amazon UK make it into the top 10,000 sellers inside 12 months. And of the top 10,000 sellers, almost 70% were already in the top 10,000 a year ago, so it's clear to see that it can be difficult to break into the top echelon of Amazon success.
Does this mean that if you're the owner of a new business, or you're trying to grow your business, that you shouldn't try Amazon, or that you should be resigned to not reaching the top 10,000 though? We don't think so, although we would strongly advise not relying on Amazon for your whole business, for many reasons. But in order to make the greatest success of your Amazon business, you need more than just hard work and perseverance, you're going to need to consider your Amazon strategy carefully.
It's obvious why Amazon customers return time and time again; they're the same reasons that many of us use Amazon ourselves! Fast delivery, easy price comparison, convenience and trust – as a customer, you know if there's a problem with a seller, Amazon customer service will sort it quickly and easily. And we know sellers love Amazon too – in spite of the horror stories and the rules & fees which can be hard to make sense of, the potential to reach so many customers is a powerful draw. When you combine that with channel integrations with multichannel software such as Linnworks, and tools such as AMZ Peak to help optimise listings, Amazon (and eBay) is usually one of the first channels sellers consider when they're starting out.
As a new seller, or if you're looking to refresh your Amazon strategy, you're also going to want to consider whether you're only going to sell in your own country, or whether you want to go global – there's never been a better time to sell internationally through Amazon, and with Amazon Australia launching recently, the potential to sell worldwide very quickly is huge.
On the back of that decision, you're going to want to decide whether you're going to sell your products by Merchant Fulfillment, Fulfilled by Amazon or Seller Fulfilled Prime. There's advantages and disadvantages to all of these, and we recommend looking into these carefully before you make your choice. We're happy to guide you – we understand what works best for different types of business.
If you've been selling on eBay, you'll almost certainly know about eBay Stores. But did you know Amazon Stores now exist too? Much like eBay Stores, Amazon Stores allow you to create single and multi-page stores that showcase your brand and product selection, and help you build repeat custom. If you're looking to create an outstanding omnichannel experience for your customers, and ultimately want your customers to find you on your brand website, we definitely recommend not skipping this step.
If you're selling your own products, or have registered trademarks, you're likely to want to consider Amazon Brand Registry. Registering with Amazon Brand Registry provides access to seller tools to help you manage your intellectual property, and gives you increased authority over product listings with your brand name.
Finally, you might also want to consider Amazon Marketing Services; it's free to register, and Amazon then provide access to paid services to help promote your products. Again, consider these carefully – maybe you'll choose to use Amazon Marketing Services for just some of your key products. We can advise you about how best to utilise Amazon Marketing Services, so if you're not sure where to start, give us a call.
These are just a few things for you to consider when you're looking at your Amazon strategy though, it's not a complete guide – for example, if your listings aren't great, or you're not making use of tools such as AMZ Peak, you're going to miss sales. So, if you're short on time to consider all of these, or are new to eCommerce, get in touch – we can examine your Amazon strategy with you and make recommendations tailored to your business, to help realise your potential by using Amazon's reputation. Call us today on 0208 090 4547 or email us on [email protected] to get started.

A really weird debris disk found around nearby star
Scientists on the hunt for planetary formation fossils reveal unexpected eccentricities in a nearby debris disk.
June 15, 2022 15:18 IST
By Amit Malewar
Artist's impression of the billion-year-old Sun-like star, HD 53143, and its highly eccentric debris disk. The star and a second inner disk are shown near the southern foci of the elliptical debris disk. A planet, which scientists assume is shaping the disk through gravitational force, is shown to the north. Debris disks are the fossils of planetary formation and since we can't directly study our own disk— also known as the Kuiper Belt— scientists glean information about the formation of our Solar System by studying those we can see from a distance. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO); M. Weiss (NRAO/AUI/NSF)
Using the highly-sensitive Band 6 receivers on ALMA, astronomers discovered a really weird debris disk around a nearby star called HD 53143. The star HD 53143, which is almost billion-year-old, is a Sun-like star located 59.8 light-years from Earth in the Carina constellation.
The observations made at millimeter wavelengths show that the disk looks nothing like expected. The debris disk was expected as a face-on ring peppered with clumps of dust, similar to the debris disk called the Kuiper Belt. But, the observation revealed something different- It is the most complicated and eccentric debris disk observed to date.
The observations also revealed that the star system's debris disk is highly eccentric. The star in ring-shaped debris discs is usually found at or near the disk's center. In elliptically-shaped eccentric discs, however, the star is located at one focus of the ellipse, which is far from the disk's center. This is the same case with HD 53143, which wasn't seen in previous coronagraphic studies because coronagraphs purposely block the light of a star to see nearby objects.
While studying HD 53143— a roughly billion-year-old Sun-like star— in millimeter-wavelengths for the first time, scientists discovered that the star's debris disk is highly eccentric. Unlike ring-shaped debris disks, in which the star sits in the center, HD 53143 is located at one foci of an elliptical-shaped disk, and is shown as the unresolved dot below and left of center. Scientists believe a second unresolved dot in the north of this image to be a planet that is perturbing and shaping the debris disk. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/M. MacGregor (U. Colorado Boulder); S. Dagnello (NRAO/AUI/NSF)
The star system is expected to have a second disk and at least one planet.
Meredith MacGregor, an assistant professor at the Center for Astrophysics and Space Astronomy (CASA) at CU Boulder, said, "Until now, scientists had never seen a debris disk with such a complicated structure. In addition to being an ellipse with a star at one focus, it also likely has a second inner disk that is misaligned or tilted relative to the outer disk. To produce this structure, there must be a planet or planets in the system that are gravitationally perturbing the material in the disk."
"This level of eccentricity makes HD 53143 the most eccentric debris disk observed to date, being twice as eccentric as the Fomalhaut debris disk, which MacGregor fully imaged at millimeter wavelengths using ALMA in 2017. So far, we have not found many disks with a significant eccentricity. In general, we don't expect disks to be very eccentric unless something, like a planet, is sculpting them and forcing them to be eccentric. Without that force, orbits tend to circularize, like what we see in our Solar System."
"Importantly, debris disks aren't just collections of dust and rocks in space. They are a historical record of planetary formation and how planetary systems evolve. and provide a peek into their futures. We can't study the formation of Earth and the Solar System directly, but we can study other systems that appear similar to but younger than our own. It's a bit like looking back in time. Debris disks are the fossil record of planet formation, and this new result is confirmation that there is much more to be learned from these systems and that knowledge may provide a glimpse into the complicated dynamics of young star systems similar to our Solar System."
HST ACS coronagraphic data shows the region surrounding HD 53143. Because coronagraphic masks block out starlight to reveal features of the regions surrounding stars, the eccentric disk, and inner disk, of HD 53143 were originally "hidden" from scientists. Credit: ALMA(ESO/NAOJ/NRAO); NASA/ESA Hubble, P. Kalas (UC Berkeley); S. Dagnello (NRAO/AUI/NSF)
Dr. Joe Pesce, NSF program officer for ALMA, added, "We are finding planets everywhere we look, and these fabulous results by ALMA are showing us how planets form – both those around other stars and in our own Solar System. This research demonstrates how astronomy works and how progress is made, informing not only what we know about the field but also about ourselves."

Debate On ABC Was Endurance Contest For Candidates, Viewers
by Adam Buckman , Featured Columnist, September 13, 2019
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the cleverest of them all?
This seemed to be a question on the minds of at least some of the candidates at Thursday's Democratic debate in Houston as they came onstage armed with an array of colorful and pithy phrases that they evidently hoped would be favorably quoted in the post-debate media frenzy.
"Trump is running our country like a game show," said Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who should have considered changing that to "reality show," since Donald Trump is not associated with any TV game shows.
Klobuchar was the one candidate who took up the opportunity afforded by the debate's location to utter the immortal phrase "Houston, we have a problem." The other debaters probably had that one in their pockets too, but she beat them to it.
California Sen. Kamala Harris trotted out the old cliché about "the man behind the curtain" in "The Wizard of Oz." "Donald Trump in office, on trade policy, you know, he reminds me of that guy in 'The Wizard of Oz'," she said. "You know, when you pull back the curtain, it's a really small dude?"
In the movie, the man behind the curtain was Frank Morgan, the actor who played the wizard. He was 5'8" tall, according to IMDB.com. Perhaps she remembered the man behind the curtain as one of the munchkins.
Certainly, attacks on President Trump came frequently during the debate, which ran for just under three hours on ABC.
The debate was the third in this summer's series of Democratic face-offs. It was a discount debate -- 50% off! -- as only 10 candidates participated on just one evening (down from the two-night, 20-participant spectacles seen earlier this year).
Harris accused Trump of telling 12,000 lies in his two-and-a-half years in office (has someone actually been counting them?) and then she invited him to "go back to watching Fox News."
That last phrase was a divisive remark that played like Hillary Clinton's infamous "deplorables" remark that probably contributed to her losing the 2016 election. Generally speaking, Harris came across as too angry in Thursday's debate. It was not a good night for her.
It was not a good night for former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke either. We can all agree that the problem of access to military-grade weapons should be a high priority, but O'Rourke's graphic descriptions of the damage that these weapons can wreak on the human body were excessive and grotesque. He came across, again, like a candidate whose campaign is desperate and floundering. You could practically see the flop sweat Thursday night.
Perhaps the candidate who fared worst was Julian Castro. His evidently premeditated attack on former Vice President Biden, in which Castro questioned this 76-year-old man's cognitive abilities, was almost universally panned in the aftermath of the debate.
In the portion of the debate on healthcare issues, Castro hammered Biden when he sensed Biden had forgotten something that he said just minutes before. "Are you forgetting what you said two minutes ago? Are you forgetting already what you said just two minutes ago?" asked Castro derisively and with evident glee. "I mean, I can't believe that you said two minutes ago that they have to buy in, and now you're saying they don't have to buy in. You're forgetting that."
The attack was mean. At least one commentator -- former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, on ABC after the debate, felt the remarks "disqualified" Castro from the campaign. "He could have made the point … he had a legitimate point, but it's a disqualifier the way he handled it," Emanuel said.
While some have questioned Biden's cognitive abilities, it is also true that the three Democratic frontrunners are 70 or over -- Biden, Bernie Sanders, 78, and Elizabeth Warren, 70.
For his part, Biden did come across many times Thursday night as rambling and vaguely out of focus, if not out of touch. And yet, he can still be considered the winner of the debate. Throughout the debate, he stayed on-message, which seemed to be: I'm the guy with the resumé and the experience.
At least one of his remarks raised eyebrows, though. Toward the end of the debate, he did ramble on for a substantial length of time (far exceeding the time allowed under the debate rules) in which he issued a quaint (if not bizarre) prescription for improving the literacy of children.
"Social workers help parents deal with how to raise their children," Biden said. "It's not that they don't want to help, they don't know what to play, the radio, make sure the television -- excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night, the -- make sure that kids hear words. …"
Well, if Joe's energy was beginning to flag by this point, then that's understandable. These marathon debates are an endurance contest for the debaters, but also for those of us at home who are determined to watch them from beginning to end.
Between the unrealistic promises, the falsehoods, the name-calling and the ceaseless complaints about the horrors of life in the United States of America, this one in particular was one tough slog.

1. I believe OZ manifested as a giant green head floating above a throne. Toto pulls back the curtain to reveal a little old man working the controls. "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!" the giant head bellows to no avail.
2. If you actually read reputable news sources like the Washington Post you would know that they are in fact tracking Mr. Trump's misleading and false statements. You can find them here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/trump-claims-database/ Today the number stands at 12,019. It's sure to go up with his daily toilet tweet dump.

You don't like democracy ? Any one of them would do a better job with both hands tied behind their back than this banana republic dictator with his death and destruction administration. Besides, anger is what is needed and a lot of people are motivated by these candidates except for Castro.

Similarly to the previous year, the top three most attractive places in Europe for hotel investments were: Great Britain (choice of 35 percent of investors), Germany (18 percent) and Spain (16 percent). Poland is number one in the CEE region, which is attractive due to the rapid economic development in recent times. This year there is a chance to beat the record from 2017, when the Polish hotel sector attracted investment of nearly EUR 350 million.

Conspiracy to handle stolen goods is an offence that can come with a stiff punishment. This article provides detailed guidance on the typical sentencing for this offence.
What is the sentence for Conspiracy to handle stolen goods in 2021?
A conspiracy to handle stolen goods in an offence in UK law. The crime itself is based on the making of an agreement with one or more people to handle stolen goods, rather than handling them.
It's the role of the prosecution to prove beyond doubt that the offence happened. They must show that the accused were acting together with an intent to handle stolen goods. The agreement of the accused was expressed or implied or assumed; the prosecution has direct or circumstantial evidence that the intention to handle the stolen goods was there.
If you are found guilty of the offence of conspiracy to handle stolen goods, you are likely to be handed a prison sentence if you're found to be guilty and convicted.
To provide you with legal guidance and answers to your questions, we have listed out some of the most frequently asked questions with their answers. It's also important to note that engaging a competent solicitor who has experience of defending conspiracy to handle stolen goods cases may be able to get any sentence reduced or even quashed.
Have you been charged or arrested for conspiracy to handle stolen goods?
The success of your case will depend on whether you have a competent and experienced solicitor working on your behalf. The conspiracy to handle stolen goods case can be very complicated, and it can mean inspecting a lot of evidence from the prosecution.
Right from the initial police station interview, you need a decent solicitor to provide you with guidance on what you should and shouldn't say when being interviewed. It's easy to say something that can make matters worse for you. However, an experienced solicitor will know how to handle the interview so that you are in the best possible position for any potential court case.
Of course, being under investigation by the police for any offence is very challenging. It's frightening, and it will make you and your loved ones feel anxious and concerned. If you're given a stiff prison sentence, you will no longer be in a position to provide them with an income for bills, rent or mortgage payments.
What type of actions are involved in a conspiracy to handle stolen goods?
Examples of acts that could result in a conspiracy to handle stolen goods are:
Planning to hide stolen goods until they are less hot so that they can be sold on online marketplaces such as eBay or Facebook without concern.
Arranging a plan to transport stolen goods to a place where they can be passed to a third party
Planning to handle money gained from the sale of stolen goods
What is the average sentence for conspiracy to handle stolen goods?
Conspiracy to handle stolen goods is taken seriously by the courts. Your sentence could range from community service to several years in prison. It depends on what happened, what your involvement was and the value of the stolen goods.
How does a court decide on the seriousness of the conspiracy to handle stolen goods offence for sentencing purposes?
The information that judges receive with regards to sentencing are only guidelines, and each case will be looked at individually. One of the factors judges consider in every case of this nature is the defendant's level of genuine remorse.
What are some of the mitigating factors that might reduce the conspiracy to handle stolen goods sentence?
Certain aspects of a case are known as the mitigating aspects which can influence the sentence that a judge gives. One of the factors judges consider in every case of this nature is the defendant's level of genuine remorse.
The following are some of the other factors considered when the Court decides which sentence to give. They will look at:
Any previous conviction
Your level of remorse
Your level of cooperation with the investigation
Whether the activity you took part in was originally legitimate
Your reputation / good character
Whether you have any serious medical conditions that require long term, urgent or intensive treatment
Whether you have a learning disability or a mental disorder
Whether you are the sole or primary carer for related dependents
Is it possible to reduce a sentence for conspiracy to handle stolen goods with a guilty plea?
In recent years, several changes have been made to the sentencing system in the UK to save the court time and cost and to protect witnesses from the stress of needlessly going through a trial. For offenders aged 18 and over, pleading guilty early on in a case can reduce a sentence by as much as one third (maximum). The later the plea is entered, the smaller the reduction.
'Early on' refers to 'the first stage of the proceedings' and means anytime up to and including the first hearing at the Magistrates Court or Crown Court for indictable offences.
If a plea is entered 14 days after the first hearing, for example, the maximum level of reduction is just 20% or one fifth of the sentence. For indictable offences, the limit for a guilty plea to be made is within 28 days after the prosecutor has stated compliance with section 3 of CPIA 1996 and serving disclosure; although the decision is ultimately in the hands of the Judge who has discretion to apply whatever credit is deemed appropriate.
After these times there is a sliding scale of credit applied. This goes down to one tenth on the first day of the trial and to zero if entered during the course of the trial. In theory, the ten percent could be given if the plea is issued after the opening speeches on the first day, but prior to any witness evidence being heard.
If the accused does not want to plead guilty, then it's important for the solicitor to regularly inform the Court throughout the trial of the reasons why the client's plea is not guilty.
What are some of the other consequences of the conspiracy to handle stolen goods offence?
Ancillary Orders
A court can also make ancillary orders on a defendant if they are found guilty and convicted of a conspiracy to handle stolen goods offence. These are extra elements of punishment that can be added to a sentence and include additional restrictions or requirements that can affect a dependent's finances, your property or business or financial activity.
Ancillary orders that are typically added to the penalty for those who are found to be guilty of conspiracy to handle stolen goods include:
Compensation for loss
Reparation orders
Being on licence
Confiscation orders
As part of your investigation, you may also have your assets frozen with the possibility of having cash or other assets seized.
In addition, the Court may demand payment of the following if the accused is convicted:
Payment of costs applied for by the prosecutors
Although the police meet some of the costs involved in the prosecution, the costs of investigation are typically sought from the convicted. These may include the costs of:
The work done in obtaining enough evidence for prosecution either at the initial stage or later at the request of Crown Prosecution Service (CPS)
Seeking medical or expert evidence as part of the investigation, (where a witness is required to attend Court, the cost of the attendance falls on the CPS).
Re-interviewing witnesses
The entire costs of the prosecutor, including fees for the use of external Barristers used by the CPS, can be recovered from the defendant, subject to means. At the end of the case, the prosecutor under The Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 will request the Judge to order a sum to be paid for the costs incurred by the prosecutor in bringing the prosecution.
Victims surcharges
The term victims' surcharges can be explained as paying compensation to a fund for victims and can range between £20 to £170 depending on what sentence you were given at conviction.
How sentences can be added to national information databases
There are several national databases that hold information about individuals and any allegations made about them, their criminal and court records. These include the DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) which was previously known as the CRB (Criminal Record Bureau) and the Police National Computer (PNC). Depending on what happened, whether the accused is convicted and what sentence was issued, the accused may be added to one or all these databases. Their purpose is to provide information to potential employers and to regulate the ability to take part in certain activities.
If your case progresses to Court and you are convicted of conspiracy to handle stolen goods, your conviction will be noted on your CRB / police record. The period of the endorsement will depend on the nature and length of your sentence.
Below are details on how long you will be listed as holding a criminal record if convicted. This is something very serious to consider when it comes to future employment. The term 'spent' refers to when your name can be removed from the databases.
Rehabilitation Period
(the time it takes for the sentence to become 'spent')
Sentence Adult (aged 18+) at time of conviction Young person (aged under 18) at time of conviction
Prison sentences of more than 4 years Sentence is never spent Sentence is never spent
Prison sentences of more than 2.5 years (30 months) but less than 4 years Sentence length 7 years Sentence length 3.5 years
Prison sentences of more than 6 months but less than 2.5 years (30 months) Sentence length +4 years Sentence length +2 years
Prison sentences of less than 6 months Sentence length + 2 years Sentence length +18 months
Conditional Discharge Length of order Length of order
Absolute Discharge None None
Conditional Caution 3 months 3 months

It is funny, in 1961 Newton Minow gave a speech before the National Association of Broadcasters and referred to Television a a vast wasteland. The statement has been taken out of context a lot. He actually said when television was good, nothing was better.
That holds true today, when television is good... There is a lot of good television, Bluebloods, NCIS, Downton Abbey, Inspector Lewis and the list goes on. Good writing, good characters, good story telling.
I am not a fan of reality TV, and I haven't paid much attention to the political debates. When I watch TV I want to be entertained and that is what I look for in good TV.

We currently don't watch TV unless we rent a movie or TV series from somewhere like RedBox. However, I have several favorites. My wife and I recently watched all seasons of Prison Break and we loved it (not for kids though). We are currently watching the old episodes of CHEERS on NetFlix, it is one that we both loved from the past. This may seem strange, but a few years ago I wanted to see the Walton's since I loved it when I was young and thought that my kids would love it now, not to mention that it is a great family show. My kids do love it and my wife actually started buying the different seasons for me as gifts for our Anniversary or other special occasions. She has bought me 6 out of the 9 seasons and we will soon have them all. So, I guess the Walton's is my favorite and possibly my families favorite..

My favorite television show changes from year to year or my current mood. Right now, my favorite is "Criminal Minds" on CBS. I love the way the "team" delves into the mind of the criminal and especially how they are able to profile a suspect without knowing who they are. Just goes to prove how much your set of keys will tell about you.
The show is fascinating!

For Memorial Day we grilled this Citrus Glazed Chicken. It was Sweet and Sticky.
I baked the chicken legs in the oven first for an hour. While the chicken was baking I made my Citrus Glaze, After an hour I transferred the chicken legs to the grill and began basting the legs with the sauce. I continued to baste and grill them for about a half hour.
Salt and pepper the legs and place in a baking dish. Bake at 400 degrees for 1 hour.
While chicken is baking make the glaze by adding orange juice, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and liquid smoke to a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Turn down heat to simmer and add the pepper flakes and fresh thyme. Continue to cook for about 20 minutes or until the glaze slightly thickens and is sticky.
Take the chicken out of the oven and place it on the grill. Baste the chicken with the Citrus Glaze and continue to turn and glaze chicken for 20 to 30 minutes until the chicken is a nice orange color and sticky.

On the use of solution to the adjoint inhomogeneous transport equation in determining parameters of multiplying media

The measurements to determine the weight of the block and the part of plutonium contained therein 239Pu made were done by the detector AWCC - Active Well Coincidence Counter. The using of a known point model can not determine the value of effective neutron multiplication factor for subcritical block appreciable size or mass and the part they contain 239Pu, because the efficiency detection of the neutrons depends on their production place (spatial effects). Analysis of the measurements for results of double and triple neutron-neutrons coincidence carried out taking into account the spatial effects. The solution of the homogeneous quasi-critical transport equations and the solutions of the inhomogeneous adjoint transport equation were used to clarify the definitions of efficiency detection neutrons as appearing only on the spontaneous fission, and taking into account their multiplication in the blocks at the same time. The value of the effective multiplication factor in the single-core subcritical assembly BFS-73 was determined by these methods and compared with the standard method ORUK, based on inverted solution of kinetics equation. The aim of the work was to determine the preference of these three definitions of efficiency for the analysis of measurement results. It was been shown the unsuitability of the homogeneous quasi-critical equations solutions for the analysis of very deep subcriticalities as solutions of the adjoint inhomogeneous equation does not take into account the neutron multiplication near criticality.

New Year is known as oshogatsu and is the most important holiday in Japan. Although in recent years Xmas is celebrated, once Dec 25th has passed all Xmas decorations are taken down overnight, to be replaced by traditional ones made of bamboo and pine branches. All duties are supposed to be finished before the end of the year, bonenkai ("forgetting the year") parties are common, and houses are cleaned even more spotlessly than usual.
On New Years Eve, at midnight, people make their way to a temple or shrine. To a westerner this is strange as a temple is Buddhist but a shrine is native Shinto. But then in some things, religion included, the Japanese are pretty flexible. In truth they are not very religious, being more ritualistic and superstitious. At any rate, some people go to temples to ring in the New Year. At the local temples, such as the one shown below, the locals queue for tickets to ring the bell. In Kyoto, where some of the bells are huge, the monks of the temple do it. By ringing the temple bell 108 times, we can get rid of the desires and sins from the past year, or such is the Buddhist belief.
Some find a good spot to view the first sunrise ((hatsu-hinode), – the beach at Kamakura is popular for this. It is a tradition to visit a shrine in the first three days of the year and pray for good luck. The shrine in these photos is the famous Meiji Shrine in Tokyo which is very popular, hence the crowds.
One of the most popular New Year's customs in Japan is to buy an oracle or "omikuji", at the temple or shrine, on which one's luck for the year is written. There are typically around a hundred or more fortunes a person might get, with each one bearing a specialized description as to how lucky (or unlucky) a person will be, with details regarding finances, health, romance and more. However, if you receive an unlucky fortune, you can escape its effects by tying it up at a designated spot or to a tree in hopes of averting the predicted misfortune. A pretty flexible version of religion don't you think? Those strips of paper wrapped round wires in the photo are the 'unwanted ones!. You can also buy demon-quelling arrows ("hamaya"), again shown in one of these pictures.
At home, special food is also eaten: on New Year's Eve, toshikoshi soba (buckwheat noodles), symbolizing longevity, are served. For the three days of New Year two kinds of special food are eaten, "osechi" and "ozoni".
Osechi dates back to the Heian period (795-1185). In those days there was a superstitious belief that it was unlucky to cook during the first three days of the New Year. Thus, all the food to be eaten during this period had to be prepared ahead of time before the New Year started. Because of this, dishes that keep well over the course of several days are essential to osechi cuisine: simmered dishes, dishes featuring dried ingredients and pickled foods make up the main core of the New Year's feast. Each dish has a symbolic meaning related to longevity, good health, fertility, or joy. Sake, the traditional rice wine, though much less popular than in the old days, is often drunk at New Year. As I'm writing this on January 2nd, my wife and I intend to drink a fine dry sake tonight.
The other food eaten, sometimes in a soup, is ozoni. Ozoni is made of mochi, or rice cakes made from glutinous rice. Mochi rice which has been soaked overnight, then cooked, is pounded repeatedly with a big wooden mallet until it reaches the desired sticky, stretchy consistency, after which it is shaped for consumption.
Finally, every house sends special New Year's cards, which are specially marked to be delivered on January 1st. It is not uncommon for one person to send out several dozen cards to friends, relatives and co-workers. The cards are related to the Chinese animal zodiac. 2017, the first year of Donald Trump's presidency, is the year of the chicken!
Japanese christians are usually seen on the streets at this time of year, as shown by the man holding the yellow signboard. Their broadcast message is usually very mournful and unattractive. The message on his signboard reads, "Jesus Christ was crucified for human beings' sins". Yep, just what we need to know at the beginning of the new year!

Q: Property 'store' does not exist on type 'ReadonlyI'm studying Next.js, TypeScript, Redux.
To apply redux in next, after googling, I write my code like this. But I don't know what is error meaning and what I have to do.
import App from "next/app";
import Head from 'next/head';

/*redux*/
import withRedux from 'next-redux-wrapper';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import initialStore from '../redux/store';

export default withRedux(initialStore)(class MyApp extends App{
    static async getInitialProps ({Component, ctx}:any) {
    return {
      pageProps: (Component.getInitialProps ? await Component.getInitialProps(ctx) : {})
    }
  }

    render() {
        const { Component, store } = this.props;

        return(
            <Provider store={store}>
                <AppLayout>
                    <Component />
                </AppLayout>
            </Provider>
        )
    }
})

This is my code.
Error message is:

Property 'store' does not exist on type 'Readonly<AppInitialProps & {
Component: NextComponentType<NextPageContext<any, AnyAction>, any,
{}>; router: Router; __N_SSG?: boolean | undefined; __N_SSP?: boolean
| undefined ; }> & Readonly<...>'.

I don't know what is my fault, I wonder what is problem?

A: Welcome to the community!
Your English is perfect, don't worry, keep trying and always post as most data possible so we can help you.
Your error is very clear but your problem is understanding the messy message of Typescript, let's break it down.
Property 'store' does not exist on type 'Readonly<AppInitialProps & { Component: NextComponentType<NextPageContext<any, AnyAction>, any, {}>; router: Router; __N_SSG?: boolean | undefined; __N_SSP?: boolean | undefined
; }> & Readonly<...>'.

You need to worry about the property store which you want to extract from this line:
const { Component, store } = this.props;

The error message is saying the property store does not exist in this.props. TypeScript will check, among other things, for the existence of properties and he does that by checking the types. this.props has the following type (from the error message):
Readonly<AppInitialProps & { Component: NextComponentType<NextPageContext<any, AnyAction>, any, {}>; router: Router; __N_SSG?: boolean | undefined; __N_SSP?: boolean | undefined
; }> & Readonly<...>

I recommend taking a look into TypeScript advanced types to understand what is Readonly among others you will see when working with TS. But, in a nutshell, the type above is a combination of multiple types, try to read it like:
Readonly<A & B & C>

The & operator combines two types. The resulting type above will be a combination of the types A, B and C and the properties will be readonly, which means you should not be changing the value of the properties.
Here an example I made for you:
type PersonProfile = {
  name: string;
};

type PersonAge = {
  age: number
}

type FullProfile = PersonProfile & PersonAge;

const personA: PersonProfile = { name: "Murillo" };
personA.name = "Henrique"; // ok

const fullPersonData: PersonProfile & PersonAge = { name: "Murillo", age: 103 };
const anotherFullPersonData: FullProfile = { name: "Henrique", age: 574 }; // The same

const personB: Readonly<PersonProfile> = { name: "John" };
personB.name = "Doe"; // Error, Cannot assign to 'name' because it is a read-only property

Solution
You can do the following to remove the error and test if everything works.
const { Component, store } = this.props as any;

This changes the type of this.props from that messy stuff to any, and any can contain any property. You can do this for testing purposes, but I don't recommend using it, in fact, tools like eslint may not allow you on doing it (kind of breaks the purpose of using TypeScript).
You will also notice you will lose the suggestions from your editor because he doesn't know what is store and Component anymore.
I recommend you to change the type of the props from your component, so the type will be the type it currently has + the store you want to extract. You may have a bit of work on that but I promise it will be nice learning.
This may help you with changing the type of the props in the whole component (didn't read it all).
Solution 2
// ...
type MyAmazingReduxStore = { store: any } // Change *any* to the correct type. check the redux documentation
// ...

const { Component, store } = this.props as Readonly<typeof this.props & MyAmazingReduxStore>

This changes the type of the props to what it is + your new type. The problem is you won't change the type of the props in whe whole component, just on that line of code.
Don worry if it is too much information for now, keep trying!

A small yellow jacket nest in your yard or outside of your business could turn into a big problem. Beyond being just annoying, yellow jackets can cause medical emergencies for people who are allergic to stings.
The German yellow jacket is the most common yellow jacket species on the east coast. Aggressive predators, yellow jackets are easily provoked, attack in force, and travel long distances to sting their prey. When yellow jackets sting, they mark their targets with chemicals that alert other yellow jackets to sting. And unlike bees, yellow jackets can sting multiple times.
Though yellow jackets may look similar to wasps or bees, they are not exactly the same. Most yellow jackets have an alternating black and yellow striped pattern, and adults can grow anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 of an inch in length. Their wings are long – even slightly longer than their bodies – and fold back when at rest. Unlike bees, yellow jackets have a narrow "waist" area between the abdomen and thorax, and lack the body hair necessary to trap pollen.
It might seem crazy, but some people consider yellow jackets to be beneficial because they are pollinators and prey on beetle grubs, flies, and other garden pests. However, they are also notorious scavengers that love proteins like meat and fish as well as sugary substances. As a result, they tend to congregate around trash receptacles and enjoy ruining outdoor picnics.
Yellow jacket activity peaks between May and August, when they seek out enough food for the nest to survive the winter. During this time, they become more aggressive and will fly further from the nest to find food. This means the chance of getting stung skyrockets, making your yellow jacket problem worse.
Yellow jackets are considered "social wasps" and typically nest in soft ground like that found in backyards, near bushes, or in flower beds. Because the only visible signs of yellow jacket nests are tiny holes in the ground, these nests are especially hard to spot. Yellow jackets always post a "guard" just inside the nest. If you see the guard yellow jacket poke its head out of a hole in the ground, or if you see yellow jackets flying in and out of a spot on the ground, you have found a nest. Some yellow jacket colonies can become quite large, with thousands of members.
Simply walking past a nest can provoke yellow jackets. If you find a yellow jacket nest, try to not disturb it. Get away from area fast and keep people and pets away from the area until the pests are eliminated.
Getting rid of yellow jackets is best left to the experts. At Connor's, we know the proper techniques for eliminating them quickly and effectively.
To get rid of yellow jackets, we use environmentally responsible products to eliminate them at the source. Our products target the yellow jackets, not your family or furry friends. To prevent yellow jackets from resurfacing in the future, we use exclusion techniques such as sealing entry holes to nests and any other potential nesting areas. Once treatment begins, we will follow-up until all yellow jackets are gone. Along the way, we will clean up any affected areas and safely dispose of any waste.
Yellow jackets pose a major health risk to your family or employees. As a result, their presence becomes a liability you can't afford to tolerate. With effective yellow jacket control from Connor's, we'll eliminate them before disaster can strike. We also offer a year-round pest protection plan that will not only prevent yellow jackets, but up to 32 types of pests common in Virginia and Maryland. No matter which service you choose, you can count on us to take care of your yellow jacket problem quickly and safely.

Construction workers are putting the final touches to an interior that's intended to have weird colors, bad wallpaper and a decor that looks thrown-together.
All that, despite Potbelly being the first tenant in Stonecrest Investment's new, 7,056-square-foot Southbranch Shops center at 5400 Goodman Road.
"To create a homey atmosphere,'' explained Fabian Nelson.
The food-loving, Louisiana native and Collierville resident left his corporate job in medical-device sales to own and run his first restaurant with his wife Cindy Nelson. Their three children, Hannah, 18, little Fabian, 15, and Josiah, 13, will help out there, too.
"We want Potbelly to be your local, neighborhood, old-school deli hangout,'' said Nelson, a 43-year-old who is investing more than $500,000 into the restaurant through savings and financing.
Besides, he said, the Memphis area is funky. "Being from New Orleans, we appreciate being a little different and we embrace that. In many ways, this is the same feel and that's why we love (the area) so much.''
The Potbelly chain started 41 years ago in Chicago and now owns and operates more than 400 shops in the United States. Franchisees like Nelson operate another 35-plus shops.
The sandwiches include a grilled chicken and cheddar ($5.60), Mediterranean ($5.30), pizza sandwich ($5.25), Italian ($5.25), turkey club ($7.05), and turkey breast, smoked ham, tuna salad, chicken salad, meatball and roast beef (ranging from $5.15 to $5.25).
Milkshakes from hand-dipped ice cream are $3.35 and cookies are $1.40.
Nelson is a self-described New Orleans "po-boy guy.''
"It starts with the bread. You've got to have good, crispy bread on the outside with a toasty warm middle. We deliver that. We slice our meats and cheeses every day.''
He says he's particular about how to make a sandwich, from how it is cut to how the hinge of the bread pieces is perfected to how the ingredients are spread across the sandwich.
The first Potbelly grew organically from inside an antique store, so Nelson will continue the chain's tradition. He's been scouring the Olive Branch area collecting antiques to display.
Every Potbelly showcases a potbelly stove; Nelson found one that was made in the region.
And diners there will hear something they don't normally hear at chain sandwich shops: Live music by local musicians performed at lunch each Monday, Thursday and Saturday.
The shop will have 38 seats inside, 12 on the patio plus a drive-thru.
Nelson has the rights to open Potbelly shops from Jackson, Tennesseee, to Oxford. Outside his Midsouth region, the closest Potbelly shops are in Little Rock, Nashville and St. Louis.
He chose the spot in Olive Branch for his first shop because of the 40,000 vehicles that pass daily and Olive Branch's rapid growth that entails a "willingness to try something new.''
"There's a lot of growth here, (but) there's not a lot of unique growth in my opinion. So we wanted to partner in that growth, but give them something very unique where they would appreciate it even more,'' Nelson said.
He'll add restaurants "as fast as we can keep the feel and keep the balance that we're going to create here'' in Olive Branch, Nelson said. "The food's got to be consistent...but it's got to be the homey touch. You've got to feel like you're coming over to Fabian's house and he's going to make you a hot sandwich.''
Potbelly Olive Branch will hold a soft opening Feb. 18; all proceeds that day will go to DeSoto Grace, a nonprofit that provides academic and recreational support for children in need.

The moment the wife of the minister saw him, she loved him and took him like the son she never had – a theme that we also see in the life story of Musa AS when he was adopted by the wife of Pharaoh.
His life as a slave led him to live in a palace, resplendent with its comforts but also its political intrigues. Despite his status as a slave, he lived in luxury and was beloved by everyone. Therefore in the calamity of slavery, Allah granted him dignity.
His physical features became more and more exquisite as he reached adulthood. A hadith relates that Allah gave Yusuf AS half of the beauty of humankind. He was dazzling to behold, and no one has possessed beauty and radiant looks of Yusuf AS ever since.
A problem arose. The wife of his master, who at first nurtured motherly love for him, was now smitten by him. Encouraged by the corrupted environment of palace life, her love developed into an illicit desire for him. This longing grew.
It is said that she was youthful and attractive. Employing her feminine tactics, one day, she beautified herself and invited Yusuf AS into her chamber. Closing the door behind them, she tried to seduce him in the privacy of her chamber. Yusuf AS exercised self-discipline, sought refuge in Allah against this immorality, and refused her advances.
He told her that his lord, her husband, had been good to him and he refused to betray his master.
Intoxicated by lust, she still threw herself at him. He ran away from her, but she gave chase, clutching the back of his shirt and tearing the fabric as he prised himself away from her grip. Yusuf AS ran out of the chamber to escape, threw the door open, and found himself facing her husband!
Right away, to her shocked husband, she changed her behaviour. Pretending to be the victim in this drama, she outrageously accused Yusuf AS of trying to take advantage of her in her own house.
Yusuf AS explained that she was the one who attempted to seduce him and that he was blameless of her accusations.
The crime allegedly committed by Yusuf AS bore heavy penalties of torture and imprisonment. The husband was a fair person, and gave Yusuf AS the benefit of the doubt while the matter was investigated.
A witness from her family suggested examining his shirt. If torn from the front, she had told the truth as it indicated that she was trying to fend off his advances. However, if the shirt was torn from the back, Yusuf AS had told the truth because it would be proof that he was trying to escape her. As in his childhood, Yusuf's AS shirt was presented as an evidence of a crime.
The shirt was torn from the back, from where she had grabbed him. The evidence presented by his shirt rang with truth.
Therefore, Yusuf AS was shown to be innocent, and his master asked him to conceal the matter. However, this scandal was too big to contain. All palaces have their own insidious grapevines and information networks, and somehow news of the incident spread. Within a few days the whole town was talking about how the governor's wife tried to seduce a slave boy. It made for delicious gossip, not much different from stories run by cheap tabloids in circulation today. The women in the town sneered at her actions for having fallen in love with someone so clearly below her own station in life.
It is said that the plot of a woman is great, as compared to the plot of the devil. The devil's plans are weak and easily foiled, whereas the scheming of a woman are intricate and powerful. Hence, if a woman falls into the hands of Shaitan, she is a malleable tool that can be manipulated by him to wreak havoc and destruction on society.
To save herself from being completely discredited, she invited these women for a banquet. She seated her guests and gave them fruits and sharp knives as part of the feast. Then, at the strategic time, she instructed Yusuf AS, who was dressed magnificently, to make an entrance and stand before them.
The ladies were so enraptured by this vision of beauty that they forgot themselves, and sliced their fingers instead of the fruit! They immediately cried out that he was not a human being but an angel!

Q: FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(user.UserName, true); cookie name What is this cookie called when it gets set? Can I see it in my cookie folder for my browser?
I think it doesn't get set so my login verification fails.

A:
What is this cookie called when it gets set?

The default name for the cookie is .ASPXAUTH. It's configurable through the web.config to have any name.
<authentication mode="Forms">
  <forms name=".SomeName" loginUrl="Login.aspx" />
</authentication>

So check there for anything non-standard.

Can I see it in my cookie folder for my browser?

You should be able to see it using any browser tools.

A: Normally, if you create Authentication Cookie yourself, you will need to create Principal object and save it inside Current Thread in AuthenticateRequest event for every request.
Otherwise, when you check User.Identity.IsAuthenticated, it will return false.
Global.asax.cs
public class Global : HttpApplication
{
    private void Application_AuthenticateRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        HttpCookie decryptedCookie =
            Context.Request.Cookies[FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName];

        FormsAuthenticationTicket ticket =
            FormsAuthentication.Decrypt(decryptedCookie.Value);

        var identity = new GenericIdentity(ticket.Name);
        var principal = new GenericPrincipal(identity, null);

        HttpContext.Current.User = principal;
        Thread.CurrentPrincipal = HttpContext.Current.User;
    }
}

web.config
Make sure you have authentication tag in web.config. For example,
<authentication mode="Forms">
   <forms loginUrl="~/Account/Login" timeout="2880"/>
</authentication>

Usage
public ActionResult Index()
{
    var username = User.Identity.Name;
    return View();
}

I use EditThisCookie Chrome Plugin.


Given the complexity of life in contemporary society, killing or involvement with killing is unavoidable. Biological, social, or political demands can conflict with the intention not to take life. We eat food and wear clothes produced by processes that involve someone taking the lives of animals. We kill insects and rodents to prevent them from invading our homes or spreading disease.
We kill in subtler ways as well. A harsh word may instantly kill years of trust. A derisive comment may kill inspiration in another person. We may kill a relationship by taking the other person for granted. Again, we do such things because we are reacting to some perceived threat.
Precepts are descriptions of how a person who is awake does behave. They help us to wake up to what is. They are not rigid rules. No rule can cover all possible circumstances.
Deep questions about values and ethics arise around the issues of abortion, life support, and elective suicide for those with debilitating and terminal illnesses. In these and other circumstances, call up compassion so that you see clearly, go empty in all the complexities so you know what is, and in that knowing act without hesitation.
Most people regard freedom as the ability to do whatever they want. In Buddhist practice, however, freedom means freedom from an agitated or clouded mind. As you cultivate this three-step practice, you discover a deeper freedom in your life: your every action becomes an expression of what you are — the union of compassion and emptiness.
