New Zildjian FX Stack
If you are a drummer then you have probably spent hours (and days) searching for that 'next new sound' for your setup. Over the years, drummers everywhere have always been on a mission for their next perfect ride, crash, or hats. But in recent years, the culture has shifted towards newer, more modern sounds including the likes of things like special effects and stacks. We've all seen some of our favorite drummers playing awesome sounding stacks on Instagram, but we've also all thought "well I wish I could build that stack but I can't spend $500 on an fx cymbal setup". So what have most people done? They've waited until they crack a cymbal or maybe find something at a local pawn shop to build a stack. I will say, this has created some great sounding setups for a lot of drummers, but its never been consistent enough and a lot of times runs the risk of just sounding bad. But do not worry anymore...this problem has been acknowledged and fixed! And guess who fixed it?? Of course...Zildjian!
Earlier this year Zildjian announced the release of the new 'fx stack" models in a variety of sizes! These new models allow drummers to have a great sounding and easy to setup stack at a very affordable price. Zildjian also partnered up with Cymbolt to create an exclusive mount that allows you to switch the stack to a hi-hat setup for a different sound and approach if you'd like. Zildjian built these models with the buffed bronze cymbals similar to the low volume models so they deliver a high pitched, bright sound with a a quick decay. Using this material also played a major role in getting the price where it needed to be. These awesome stacks start just under $100 with the most expensive model being $169. They are available in 8", 10", 12", 14" and 16" versions so they are able to fit a wide variety of drumming styles.
In my opinion I've always thought that the stacks were somewhat stuck in the gospel and metal drumming communities but I'm excited to see drummers pushing the envelope and bringing them into different styles of music. It seems to really be pushing drummers and their creativity and now more and more drummers will be able to grow because of cool innovations from the great innovators at Zildjian!
With this all being said, I still have fun helping people to try and build a custom stack using cast cymbals from the other Zildjian series. Recently I got to help a friend and customer put together a stack using a 16" K Custom Special Dry Crash and a 17" K Custom China! Obviously a stack with this quality of cymbal is going to be a more expensive setup but he was able to get the exact sound he was looking for! Whether you want to experiment with a stack for $99 or you'd like to put together to ultimate drum stack, I highly recommend you give it a shot and see where it takes your drumming! I've got a feeling it will open up your creativity and take your playing to places its never been!
Come see us soon and lets find the perfect cymbals!

Although I had been to Russia and the Ukraine many times in the past, I had never actually been to Kiev for some reason, so suffice is to say that I leapt at the opportunity when Tavistock called me up with this particular job.
I was charged with the task of helping a thirteen-year-old girl with her English with a view to her applying for a top Private School in the UK later that year, when her parents were planning on moving to Surrey.
Upon arriving, I remember that her level of English was very low and thinking that we would have a mountain to climb: but climb and climb we did- each day, she absorbed each new lesson like a sponge and, after about six months, she had accomplished real mastery over the language. It was useful that I spoke some Russian, but probably wouldn't have been a prerequisite, especially seeing that the mother spoke such wonderful English. This was probably why her daughter was so able to pick it up and with such panache!
I absolutely loved Kiev and staying with the family, who were incredibly accommodating and kind. I am seriously considering doing another one of these placements this summer coming!


Sir Thomas Bent late of Bay Street Brighton formerly of Hampton Street, St Andrews Street and Dendy Street (or Road) in the Borough of Brighton Parish of Moorabin County of Bourke, Colony of Victoria Member of Parliament, Mayor of Brighton, Gentleman, Land Speculator died 1909. Still today, 2016, one hundred and forty three years later, the name Thomas Bent survives and remains on title as the registered proprietor in fee simple of a piece of land adjoining Barkly and Parliament Streets Brighton.
According to the historical research of Weston Bate, it was in 1873 he had bought the unsold portions of Dendy's special survey (1841), although he subdivided only a small section of it before 1883.
The section of land that still today is in the name Thomas Bent is in the area bounded by Bay, Parliament and Barkly Streets. This is illustrated on Dendy's Crown Special Survey Chart 13 and Titles Office Record of Subdivision.
The remnant land will be the subject of a Section 60 Adverse Possession claim. I cannot foresee any opposition from the Estate of Thomas Bent.
The original name given to the district now known as Bentleigh was Brighton East. Brighton East Post Office was run by the postmaster, the late Mr William Ward Snr. in Centre Road, near where Robert Haye's Studio stands today. The post office's name was changed in the year 1906 to Bentleigh in honour of Sir Thomas Bent, who started his career as a market gardener, and went on to become the Premier of Victoria.

Home Arts and Entertainment St. Olaf welcomes new theater professor
St. Olaf welcomes new theater professor
Julia Pilkington
This semester, the theater department welcomed new tenure-track faculty member Michelle Cowan-Gibbs. The Manitou Messenger sat down with Professor Gibbs for an interview.
Manitou Messenger:What did you do before you came to St. Olaf?
Professor Gibbs: I was a graduate student. Actually, I am still finishing up my doctoral studies at Bowling Green State University. My emphasis is in performance studies, particularly identity representation and race [and] performances of blackness. I am very interested in how the black body has been received in history and is currently being received. So I tend to write from a perspective of that in terms of theater, and then in terms of how that affects our everyday life. So that's what I was interested in and doing before I came here teaching and working on my doctoral studies.
MM:Why St. Olaf?
PG: Why not St. Olaf? One of my students came in a couple days ago, and he called this place a "castle on a hill." And I thought "how appropriate is that?" This is the type of institution that really values community. And I am somebody who really values community, particularly among multicultural and diverse audiences. I value that.
There's lots to do here on the "castle on the hill." And it keeps the students quite busy! But for the most part, I think that there is something really valuable about the experiences that Olaf students are encouraged to have that I really, really gravitate towards. You are all asked to consider your world – consider Olaf as a community – and then bring something back from it, something that helps percolate [and] helps keep us thinking about life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And that's really exciting. Experience is awesome, really awesome. So I very much enjoy those two things here.
You guys are really bright. You're very interested in what's happening in the world and that's something that really affects me. It makes me want to raise my game up in the classroom to challenge you even more. Because in a way, you guys get it. You have been blessed with a kind of insight into the world … and that's exactly where I want to be.
After my teaching presentation – when I interviewed for the position – the room was packed full of students. And I thought "Oh, these students are really, really interested. They want to know who's going to come into this position and what this person's going to offer."
That was so attractive from the very get-go. The room was packed and they were asking such intelligent questions about my research, about my teaching background … they really cared! And you can't buy that. That's just ingrained. That's a cultural thing. You know, that is ingrained in the culture of Olaf itself. And that's where I want to be.
MM:Do you have a favorite play or musical?
PG: I don't think I have a favorite play — I like a lot of plays. I did go through this phase where I was about Detroit, because I am from Detroit … where everything I directed had something to do with the city in some way, shape or form.
I am partial to a playwright – her name is Dominique Morisseau – and she has written a three play cycle about Detroit and particularly looking at how history has influenced the ways in which we look at Detroit today … so I tend to really gravitate towards her plays.
I love August Wilson. It is my goal at St. Olaf to do an August Wilson piece. I am going to make that happen. I don't know where I am going to find the brown people to get it to do it. But that's going to be my challenge … I think his work is really – especially in terms of African-American history – really valuable to get that perspective of his interpretation of African-American history. And the characters are so richly written that I would love to give students that experience: to challenge them with a meaty text like that. So August Wilson is obviously a favorite playwright of mine.
And you know what, I don't really have a favorite musical, but I have been wanting to do "Bye Bye Birdie" for a minute. And I mean doing "Bye Bye Birdie." I mean taking that play apart; I'm gonna deconstruct it from the inside out, and I really want to look at celebrity, at the effects of celebrity-ism on the popular culture. I've been wanting to do that play for about three years. I just haven't quite had the person-power to put up a play like that, especially at the institution I worked at before – we just didn't have enough men to do that. But at Olaf, we have men! We have many of them to choose from, which is just so exciting and such a great enthusiastic theatre community.
And people are really excited about plays. It is a great time to be here and I'm quite grateful for the opportunity to be here.
MM:Is there anything you would like to say directly to St. Olaf students?
PG: Oh, thank you so much for welcoming me. God bless you. Thank you for being so generous to me and so welcoming. I've had many students send me emails to welcome me to the program, not just those who are theater majors, but those who I've just run into and said "hi" and exchanged information with. And they sent me an email saying, "we're so glad you're here." And the faculty and staff as well who've just been so warm to me. I'll be honest – it's kind of scary coming into a role such as this, especially with the expectations I put on myself for what I'd like to achieve. And the St. Olaf community as a whole has been so welcoming to me and my family and it has just been really touching. So I'd like to say thank you so much for the warm welcome. And I'm excited about the future.

Rep. Lois Frankel is Pushing for a #MeToo Movement on Capitol Hill
8/20/2018 by Brock Colyar
Rep. Lois Frankel (D-FL) remembers the disappointing days before the #MeToo movement when sexual harassment and domestic violence were experiences without a proper name and space to discuss them. "Domestic violence was just a matter-of-fact," she told Ms., looking back on her time in the Florida state legislature. "It wasn't unlawful for one spouse to beat another."
Today, however, the conversation is moving at full speed—and as co-chair of the Congressional Caucus for Women's Issues, Frankel is helping to lead two major efforts to protect women across the country.
Rep. Frankel protesting a domestic gag rule. (From her Twitter)
Frankel, alongside Reps. Ted Poe (R-TX), Jerry Nadler (D-NY), Barbara Comstock (R-VA) and Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-DE) introduced the bipartisan EMPOWER Act in the House to tackle the #MeToo moment and harness its energy for long-lasting change. "Sexual harassment isn't about sex—it's about abuse of power," Frankel told Ms., addressing the importance of the need to end workplace monopolies of power. "Time's up. The bottom line is, sexual harassment takes place in every industry you can think of."
The legislation, introduced in the Senate by Sens. Kamala Harris (D-CA) and Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), would put an end to the use of non-disparagement and non-disclosure clauses that prevent victims from speaking out, create a confidential sexual harassment reporting line with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and require that companies disclose the number of settlements for sexual harassment cases and the presence of individuals with repeated settlements in their annual tax filings. Under the law, companies would no longer be allowed to claim deductions for legal fees incurred through sexual harassment cases, either.
Frankel's fight doesn't end there: She's also pushing to expand and strengthen the landmark Violence Against Women Act passed in 1994 to combat domestic violence and sexual assault.
VAWA has reduced serious victimization by an intimate partner by 72 percent for women and 64 percent for men—yet the act faced a contentious reauthorization fight in 2013 over new protections for LGBTQ people and Native American communities. VAWA is set to expire again on September 30, and Frankel is fighting alongside other Democrats in the House to pass reauthorization legislation by Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) that expands programs for youth education and prevention efforts, strengthens protections for victims using housing grants and establishes the creation of a Violence Against Women director post in the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Earlier in the month, Frankel and Rep. Susan Brooks (R-IN) sent a letter to House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) urging them to increase funding for preventative services in VAWA's upcoming reauthorization. By increasing funds for these preventative programs—including programs that will engage men and boys as allies and rape education and prevention programs sponsored by local and state-based organizations—the members hope to avoid the psychological and economic debilitation of domestic violence for individuals, families and communities.
"What we've been told is that communities are basically overwhelmed," Frankel told Ms., "and the advocates believe that more money should be put into prevention—not just enforcement after-the-fact."
Frankel also believes that these programs are critical because of their ability to affect change at the local level. "These actions, especially these local actions, have saved lots and lots of lives," she noted. "We are hoping that this is going to be a bipartisan effort—and they really are community-based programs, so I'm hoping we keep it away from the President. His administration has not been very female-friendly at all."
Frankel sees Lee's legislation as a "pretty modest proposal"—but the political climate she referenced doesn't stop at Trump, and she and her colleagues are ready for a fight. "There are efforts by folks on both sides of the aisle, but I'm not sure every point will make it into the final package," she explained. "We understand the political dynamics we are up against."

/ Frogs' secret disposal system revealed
Frogs' secret disposal system revealed
January 5, 2010 By Brendan BB Borrell This article courtesy of Nature News.
Talented amphibians urinate foreign objects implanted in their body cavities.
Plant thorns, spiny insects and even radio transmitters don't stick around for long inside tree frogs. Researchers have discovered that these amphibians can absorb foreign objects from their body cavities into their bladders and excrete them through urination.
The finding will be of interest to field researchers, who often implant tiny radio transmitters into frogs to track them. It also helps to explain how these little creatures survive a life leaping around in thorny forests and consuming spiny insects whole.
"It strikes me as being a pretty incredible mechanism for getting stuff out from the body cavity," says lead researcher Christopher Tracy of Charles Darwin University in Darwin, Australia. By contrast, humans and other mammals typically develop peritonitis, a potentially deadly infection of the body-cavity membrane, if the membrane is punctured or damaged by sharp objects.
As if by magic
In 2003, Tracy and his colleagues began a project to find out how frogs regulate their body temperature. They surgically implanted temperature-sensitive radio transmitters in the abdominal cavities of tree frogs of three species (Litoria caerulea, Litoria dahlii and Cyclorana australis) living around the city of Darwin. After several months, the authors set out to recapture their frogs to log the data and replace the transmitters' batteries. But out in the field they found three of the transmitters lying on the ground.
"In telemetry studies of small animals, it's not uncommon to find they've been eaten by something," Tracy says. "But there's usually some evidence that happened: scratches on the ground or a pile of predator faeces."
In this case, the transmitters were pristine. And the strangest discovery was yet to come: back in the lab, the researchers opened up dozens of animals and in many cases pulled transmitters not from the body cavity, but from the urinary bladder. "That's when we started thinking about trying to pin down exactly what was going on," Tracy says.
In 2008, Tracy and his colleagues decided to look into the phenomenon. They kept tree frogs and cane toads in the lab and surgically implanted beads in their body cavities. Within 2–3 weeks, the beads appeared on the floor of the frog cage. Only one cane toad out of five excreted a bead, but Tracy opened some other toads after the surgery and caught them in the act of enveloping the beads into their bladders. In just two days, the bead was surrounded by a transparent tissue devoid of blood vessels, which subsequently became vascularized and muscular.
The researchers describe their findings in a poster presentation today at a meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology in Seattle, Washington.
Although the study is the first to show an animal using its bladder to expel foreign objects, researchers have observed similar phenomena in other vertebrates. Several species of fish and snake absorb objects into their intestines from the body cavity and expel them by defecation, for instance.
Rick Shine, a herpetologist at the University of Sydney, Australia, who has seen snakes expel implanted radio transmitters1, says that the research has broad implications for understanding vertebrate physiology. For reptiles and amphibians, at least, moving objects from one part of their innards to another may pose no problem. "It makes sense for an animal to get an object out of the body cavity," he says. "The remarkable thing is that they are able to do it."
Pearson, D. J. & Shine, R. Herp. Rev. 33, 261-263 (2002).

After re-installing Windows on a 2003 Server after a rather unpleasant hard disk failure, none of the client machine would connect to the domain because the machine account passwords were incorrect. After much pulling of hair and gnashing of teeth we eventually worked out how to accomplish this with a batch file.
We copied NETDOM.EXE from the Windows XP installation media to a network share on the server, then mapped a drive using administrator credentials to "fake" sufficient privileges to remove/add the machine to the domain, before using NETDOM to do the actual remove/add operations.
These are tools I use myself to rid computers of malware infestations.

There are so many conflicting opinions, I really can't follow anything about this
I'm still trying to understand whether it's truly bad that Russia has decided to step in.
It is, whatever the threat is, military aggresive hostile takeover just to "secure" things is never the answer. There's no right to invade another souverign state at all.
But from what I understand, there has been lots of support from people in Crimea for what Russia is doing

Crimea has always been in Russia's court. The last time anyone tried taking Crimea from Russia in any shape or form was Hitler and Napoleon before him. We all know how far that went. The Crimea people are pro Russian anyway with long old ties, so perhaps this is for the best. Would it be bad for Kiev to separate from that portion of the Ukraine? Also, though this top brass man committed treason, in a way, his decision may have saved lives if it avoids a military conflict where civilians get caught in the collateral. Then again, who knows where this will go?

The thing with Crimea is that just 24% is ethnic Ukranian. Russia was allowed to have their harbours there and Ukraine in return got cheap gas prices for the whole country.
Basically a big big majority is connected to Russia, either because they are Russian or they are working for Russians one way or another.
So they won't fight their home country or the hand that is feeding them.
Edited March 2, 2014 by MonsterMum
Thank you so much for explaining It's really complicated. I don't really support the dramatic headlines everyone throws around. These situations are so layered.
I thought I'd just give you a small recap because I'm not even sure people know here what the deal is about or why the things happening are happening now.

Economic isolation seems interesting, although my country's crisis would be bad - 5,4% of our export goes to Russia and 5,1% of our gas comes from Russia. It could be way worse in other countries though, most of East-Europe and Central-Europe has over 40% of their gas from Russia. Sweden, Finland, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania 100%.
Isolation effects Europe WAY more than it does the US, and if the US ends up doing it, China could threaten isolation as well because China backs Russia for most things :udidnt:

The "seniors" amongst us will remember the occasional stories at Yahoo from alleged patients treated with cells from Intellicell (CEO Steven Victor), which separated cells from fat with ultra sonic cavitation. The writing style of these stories were always the same and already soon I was informed by "insiders in the business" that this was scam.
The procedure kills the cells.
Up to this date I however never learned of the ultimate outcome of the Company except for the fact that Victor was being sued and the stock is not worth a cent any longer.
Dr Bright paid $ 700,000 to US company Intellicell for a licence for the method.
Intellicell is now being sued by investors and former employees for misuse of funds and alleged fraud because it was discovered that cells it was claiming to be live were dead.
Robert Sexauer was Intellicell's vice president of Clinical Research and Development and has exposed to 7.30 for the first time what went wrong.
"You cannot take shortcuts, you cannot take any kind of a method whereby you either put patients at risk, or you put the quality of the people that you're working with in terms of research at risk," Mr Sexauer said.
In internal company emails in April last year, Mr Sexauer tried to warn management that scientists at four independent universities had found that Intellicell's method killed the stem cells.
But he said Intellicell chief executive Steven Victor ignored his warnings.
"You've got a physician who has been duly notified by highly qualified research institutions that the cellular population that they are using in-human is an inert or dead cell population and they've chosen to ignore that and still go on as if it is not and claim to investors, to regulators, to patients, to the communities at large that these cell populations are live cells," Mr Sexauer said.
The 7.30 program has obtained an affidavit to the US Food and Drug Administrator (FDA) by Intellicell's quality assurance manager - who first blew the whistle on the company and who said she was "directed ... to knowingly adulterate records".
The manager alleged she was urged to conduct unregistered clinical trials and to create fake data to send to the US Patent Office.
"The pressure to publish was so great and the pressure to publish what I would consider to be less than adequate results was very, very high," Mr Sexauer said.
"And that is a breach of ethics."
The affidavit led the FDA to send a formal warning to Intellicell about its methods, which highlighted a number of problems with Intellicell's laboratory, ranging from quality controls and sanitation to scientific methods.
A group of investor doctors and former employees are now suing Intellicell for misuse of funds and alleged fraud.
Among the litigants is Dr Bright, who had paid for technology that now appeared to be useless.
The plaintiffs have said that Intellicell lied to the US Patent authority and to them.
"[Intellicell] knowingly altered, or caused to be altered, test data and falsely claimed the process provides a 97 per cent live cell recovery ... At all times (Intellicell) knew and was aware that the actual recovery of live stem cells was less than 3 per cent," the court documents allege.
Yeah...I remember the intellicell pumpers on the YMB.
JK always good for a laugh....wonder where he is at with his 2020 earnings est. for CYTX today ?

You won't be around him long before you experience his penchant for finding the positive in every situation, his quietly hilarious demeanor, or his thoughtful way of listening and then almost as if out of thin air creating the perfect solution that makes his clients, his coworkers, and even consultants and contractors downright happy.
If you ask Jim how he stays so calm while making sure every single thing that needs to happen at Herlong & Associates happens, he'll most likely cite his duck mantra: looking cool and smooth on the surface while underneath his legs are paddling steadily. But we think he's just trying to downplay his super-human capabilities. We're pretty sure he never sweats, swears, or sleeps past his alarm. His careful bearing, quiet humor, and brilliant business sense keep everything running smoothly and everyone working well together to create the best homes around.

Clients and coworkers appreciate the gentle yet confident way about her, which makes her the ideal person you'd want to engage in the comprehensive task of designing a custom home.
When Bronwyn isn't busy designing dream homes, she's running around with her three boys and yellow lab named Piper.

He travels the globe. He fishes, plays soccer, rebuilds VW's, draws, paints, makes short films, cooks—the man just may be the Most Interesting Man in the World's much younger brother. His infectious passion and talent for design, however, trump all the rest, and these he combines with a genuine smile, an eagerness to help and learn, a serious work ethic, and the fact that he's a really snazzy dresser.

Home — Essay Samples — History — The Great Migration — Searching for a better life and less abuse, the Great Migration told in the Warmth of Other Suns
Searching for a better life and less abuse, the Great Migration told in the Warmth of Other Suns
History is dotted with stories of communities who were forced by people or circumstances to migrate from the land that they inhabited and move to a new place. One such occurrence, a historical event, is The Great Migration as told by Isabel Wilkerson in the book The Warmth of Other Suns. In her book, Wilkerson narrates the exodus of millions of African Americans from the Southern States of the U.S to the North, East and West U.S cities in pursuit of freedom and better living conditions. According to Wilkerson, the African American population in the Southern states had faced a significant challenge as they were subjected to oppression, subservience, inequality, and racism. The oppression of the African Americans in the Southern states made them begin escaping to the North where they hoped to find more job opportunities, less abuse, and better living conditions. The millions of migrants who escaped to the North would, however, realize that life there was not much different from their life in the South. Some of the problems that made these populations escape from the South American towns persist to the present day and include racial discrimination and migration for labor.
The end of the American civil war heralded the end of slavery, which was rampant in the South. Consequently, the white ruling class, in an attempt to maintain a superior status than the colored people, legislated Jim Crow. The Jim Crow was a set of laws that banned all social integration of members of the black population with the whites. The new laws introduced separate streetcars, different library sections for different races, and even separate Bibles for use in courthouses. The Jim Crow spread from Georgia into all the states in the South and has been cited as the cause for the high migration. Between 1891 and the 1960's more than six million African Americans had moved from the South to the North, West and East cities of Chicago, Network, Detroit, and Los Angeles.
Upon migrating to the North, the African Americans faced multiple challenges including lack of shelter, poor working conditions and a rise in xenophobic attacks by the resident populations. Initially, the number of new migrants was low but increased from 1910 to 1920. The black population of Philadelphia rose more than fivefold; Detroit saw a six-fold rise, New York, and Chicago had a 66% and 148% increase respectively. Similarly, the number of black workers in these cities increased significantly. Most of the migrant workers would invite their families from down South to join them leading to the significant rise in black population in the Northern cities.
The rise in the population in the cities caused a strain on the social amenities that were available. The black migrants competed for the available job vacancies with the white residents. The competition resulted in a reduction of the wages offered by the employers. Additionally, there was a shortage of appropriate housing and most of the migrants had to live in substandard shacks. The poor living conditions and the unavailability of affordable health services led to serious health complications for the black population. The black population had fled from harsh living conditions in the South and ended up facing even greater health challenges in the North. The poor health services, combined with poor living conditions and long working hours resulted in many deaths of the black migrants. As more migrants moved to the North, house rent continued to rise and became unaffordable for many blacks.
Another challenge that the black migrants faced was racism and prejudice from the white population. The North was segregation-free, but the black migrants found it difficult to obtain services from the white residents. Firstly, most of the comfortable housing estates were owned or managed by white people. The white house owners deliberately refused to lease their houses to the black population. White people who bought houses in the white neighborhoods also had to commit themselves not to sell the same to the blacks if they were to move. Additionally, there was a rising uneasiness by the white population against the increasing populations of black immigrants that resulted in xenophobia and violence. A white supremacist gang called the Ku Klux Klan began widespread attacks against the black people. The worst violence occurred in Chicago resulting in 38 deaths, 537 injuries and the destruction of more than 1000 houses belonging to black people.
Despite the myriad of challenges that faced the African American immigrants after they moved to the North, Wilkerson opted to tell the story from three different fronts using three separate individuals. Wilkerson describes Ida Mae Gladney's migration from Mississippi to Chicago and her relative success as a blue-collar worker. Mae and her family had left behind a life of sharecropping in the South and traveled to the North seeking higher quality life and freedom from racial prejudice. She succeeded in finding blue collar work, just like millions of other migrants and lived a communal life in a black dominated neighborhood. Mae's challenges in the North mirrored those of millions of migrants who could not find well-paying white-collar jobs or afford to buy homes in the expensive areas. Mae's hometown also changes from a middle class to a low-end ghetto where crime is prevalent as indicated by the high number of drug peddlers in the streets. Mae and her neighbors were able to change the society through their culture, food and music. Similarly, Mae plays a role in the political realignment of the North by voting for Barack Obama as senator for Illinois, and thus setting him on the path to becoming the first black U.S president.
Contrastingly, Wilkerson tells the story of George Starling, who escaped from Florida to Harlem to escape possible lynching for organizing farm workers to boycott work. Starling had dropped out of college after he couldn't raise enough money. George took the Silver Meteor and went to New York. George could only find a job as a porter at the Silver Meteor despite his good academic background but appreciated that the civil movement would create better opportunities for future generations. For George, however, life in the North was better than he would have expected in Florida.
The final protagonist in Wilkerson's book is Robert Foster from Louisiana. Foster was born in a middle-class family and educated in the best black college. His parents, however, did not want him to work in the small town and therefore sent him to Los Angeles. Foster became a very successful surgeon but did not want to be associated with the South. His disassociation with his Southern history is so profound that it prevents him from enjoying the opportunities available in his life.
The three main characters in Wilkerson's book represent the millions of African American migrants who moved to the North during the Great Migration. Firstly, all the three protagonists had reasons that compelled them to migrate. The reasons included the pursuit of better economic opportunities in the case of Foster and an escape from death by George. Mae and her family left the South to escape oppression by the employer. Wilkerson deliberately selected the three characters to represent the multifaceted causes of the Great Migration. Similarly, all the three main characters left the South and headed to the North, West and East for Mae, Foster and George respectively. The three of them also left the South at different times, Mae's family leaving in 1937, George in 1945 and Foster in 1951.
By carefully selecting a set of different dates for the three main characters, the author manages to depict the conditions that existed in the South at different times during the Great Migration. Similarly, the author selects the participants who were headed to different cities and, therefore, manages to capture the conditions that awaited the African American migrants in the various cities.
The Great Migration caused the introduction of new cultures, foods, religion and political movements in the North. A good example is the rise of Harlem culture in the New York City. The Harlem culture was initiated by the black migrants in the white-dominated New York City residential areas. The Harlem movement introduced new culture and language and became very famous when the population of the blacks in New York City increased to more than 200000 in 1920. The increase in black migrants to the North resulted in their political activism that led to the election of black representatives. The civil rights movement and the election of Barack Obama as the first U.S black president are two significant events that have been attributed to the Great Migration. The Great Migration increased the number of African Americans in the Northern states and hence gave them greater political opportunities. The Southern states have historically practiced white dominance while the rest of the states, especially those in the North are more politically tolerant. The departure of millions of blacks from the South and their subsequent registration as voters in the North denied the South its previous political dominance.
In conclusion, Wilkerson manages to demonstrate that the Great Migration had significant social, economic and political impact on the whole of the U.S despite its limited coverage by the historians. The stories of George, Mae, and Foster also indicate that the migrants achieved different fortunes in the North, some were successful, some failed and yet others just scraped through their lives. The book is a comprehensive representation of the Great Migration and the effects it had on both the migrants and the resident communities. Based on the milestone political achievements of the black population due to the Great Migration their geopolitical influence can be expected to rise further. The U.S is a global superpower that affects economic and political decisions in many of the world's countries. An increased global political and social influence by the African Americans can be expected as they attain a higher political status in the U.S. Similarly, the increase in the population of the African Americans leads to their occupation of influential military career positions. Considering the rising influence of the black community, and the U.S having already elected a black president, the world might also get its first black pope soon.

Bahrain's no. 1 IMMAF-WMMAA rank makes Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Khalifa very happy
Sheikh Khalid Bin Hamad al Khalifa (© Brave Combat Federation)
The Kingdom of Bahrain has reached the top of the mixed martial arts world as the country is now the leader of the International Mixed Martial Arts Federation-World Mixed Martial Arts Association (IMMAF-WMMAA) world rankings, surpassing Kazakhstan, Sweden, Russia, and New Zealand. The positive results in the Asian and African Open tournaments were instrumental in the rise from Team Bahrain.
His Highness Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Khalifa expressed his utmost delight after seeing Bahrain topping the latest MMA ranking issued by the IMMAF-WMMAA. He is the first deputy president of the Supreme Council for Youth and Sports, the president of Bahrain Olympics Committee and an honorary president of Bahrain MMA Federation.
"We are very happy to see Bahrain on top of IMMAF-WMMAA's ranking," Al Khalifa said. "This confirms we are on the right path in the MMA sport as per the vision engineered to develop it, enabling the Kingdom's champions to make honorable results."
Bahrain led the African Open ahead of host county South Africa with four gold medals, two bronzes, and one silver. Also, Team Bahrain had a significantly positive result at the Asian Open with 13 medals in total, including five golds, one silver, and seven bronze medals.
After four years of Al Khalifa's attention turning to the development of MMA in Bahrain and abroad, Team Bahrain has fulfilled one of its main objectives ahead of what promises to be a historical International Combat Week (ICW). Around 550 athletes from 60 nations will gather in the kingdom for the IMMAF-WMMAA World Championships on November 9-16, 2019.
The vision of Al Khalifa for the sport will once again be exposed to the entire world as his contributions continue to transform the mixed martial arts world and the sports industry as a whole. Meanwhile, here is Brave Combat Federation president Mohammed Shahid talking about the upcoming ICW 2019:

January 18, 2021 GDC Industry, Middle East 0
Aerospace giant Boeing has won three foreign military sales contracts valued at as much as $800 million for training services and support Qatari Emiri Air Force's F-15QA.
Boeing today acknowledged three foreign military sales contracts with the U.S. Air Force for training services and support in the Middle East valued at more than $800 million.
Boeing Awarded Contract for Training and Support of QEAF

F-15QA Ababil: Boeing Delivers the Most Technologically Advanced Fighter Jets to Qatar
The first previously unannounced contract was awarded in 2019 and will support the Qatar Emiri Air Force (QEAF) with F-15QA program management, maintenance and aircrew training valued at $240 million over a five-year contract period.
Boeing also received a separate not-to-exceed $68 million contract to provide maintenance and logistics support for the QEAF during their pre-delivery training for the F-15QA aircraft, which will commence early next year. The QEAF will send pilots and weapon system operators to the U.S., where the aircrews will learn how to independently operate the F-15QA ahead of receiving their new aircraft. Training will include in-person instruction, simulation events and flying operations and will be held near Boeing's F-15 production facility in the U.S. through mid-2021.
Following this, Boeing will establish and operate an aircrew and maintenance training center for the QEAF at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, through 2024.
A third contract awarded in November and valued at more than $500 million will provide the QEAF with in-country spares and logistics support once the aircraft are delivered to Qatar.
"The tailored training and sustainment delivered by our team, coupled with Boeing's platform expertise, allows us to deliver a holistic solution to our Qatari customer so they can optimize the full capability of their fleet with high availability rates," said Tim Buerk, director of Middle East defense services for Boeing. "We look forward to our continued partnership with Qatar and further supporting their mission readiness needs."
The F-15QA is an advanced variant of the undefeated F-15 aircraft. The Advanced F-15 features next-generation technologies that offer more speed, range and payload than any other fighter in its class. Boeing will deliver 36 F-15QA aircraft to Qatar starting in 2021.
Boeing is the world's largest aerospace company and leading provider of commercial airplanes, defense, space and security systems, and global services. As a top U.S. exporter, the company supports commercial and government customers in more than 150 countries. Building on a legacy of aerospace leadership, Boeing continues to lead in technology and innovation, deliver for its customers and invest in its people and future growth.

Social networking sites are extremely popular nowadays – especially amongst students – and are increasingly the subjects of educational research. But there is a sparse research base on students' willingness to adopt social networking sites in their education. In this chapter we investigate to what extent Facebook is used as an educational tool. By means of semi-structured interviews, we asked students why they use Facebook and whether they allow faculty members into their personal sites, or not. During the period of one academic year 2009-2010, 15 students of different bachelor programs in a Flemish University were interviewed several times. The results demonstrate that students draw a sharp distinction between the ways they use Facebook, and why they do so. Furthermore, they barely use the social networking site for educational purposes. Consequently, students are not inclined to allow faculty members presence (as 'friends' on Facebook). These results are interpreted in terms of privacy concerns, and we conclude this chapter with some critical reflections concerning the current research about the effectiveness and the educational possibilities of social networking sites.
Almost a decade and a half ago, Andrew Weinreich launched SixDegrees.com, a website now believed to be at the same time both the first instance and precursor of more current social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, Twitter, Hyves, and so on. In the years to follow a multifarious gamut of initiatives proliferated, exhibiting the same characteristics as SixDegrees.com: the possibility to create profiles, to list friends, to surf friends' lists (Boyd & Ellison, 2008). SixDegrees.com's popularity waned pretty soon though and in 2000, the site was shut down. At the start of this new decade however, social networking sites have become widely accepted amongst youngsters and young adults. According to Tufekci (2008), 80% to 90% of college students have a profile on a social networking site. Our own research points to similar results. In a Web survey conducted with 143 bachelor students, 88.8% indicated they are a member of at least two social networking sites (Bruneel, Elen, De Wit, & Verhoeven, 2010).
One of the first social networking sites that popularized prototypical features (e.g. the possibility to create a digital representation of oneself by means of profiles, the possibility to make public comments on other users' profile, the ability to make friend lists) of social networking sites was Friendster, which was launched in 2002 and rapidly gained momentum (Boyd, 2008). The real breakthrough came with MySpace (Hinduja & Patchin, 2008, p. 130), "due in large part not because of innovative functionality and utility, but because it centralized many attractive functions that were already a part of other social networking sites in a user-friendly way". Launched in 2003, MySpace soon gained tremendous popularity: only four years later, it was by far the most adopted social networking site amongst youngsters – attracting 230,000 new users each day at some point in time (Lenhart & Madden, 2007; Sellers, 2006). This popularity however, did not mean MySpace was the only one of its kind. On the contrary: despite MySpace's popularity, a plethora of other (often culturally bounded) social networking sites emerged.1 Those other social networking sites were no mere epiphenomena: MySpace soon experienced competition from a lot of them (e.g. Bebo, Grono Hi5, Hyves, LunarStorm, Mixi).
Until recently, Bebo and Facebook seemed to be the two main contrivers 'assaulting' MySpace (Nielsen/NetRatings, 2007). Today, it seems as if the global dispute has been settled and that the battle has been won by Facebook. In a follow-up study, Lenhart found MySpace was no longer the most consulted social networking site: in September 2009, 71% of a sample of American young adults (in previous years always more inclined to use MySpace) owned a Facebook account, 66% of them owned a MySpace account, and 7% of them owned a LinkedIn account (Lenhart, Purcell, Smith, & Zickuhr, 2010). In July 2010, Facebook reached over 500 million active users (Facebook, 2010). Currently, Facebook is not only the social networking site that is being used the most, it is also by far the most discussed social software program in the literature (Epperson & Leffler, 2009). This brief history implies at least two conclusions. Firstly, despite the rise and fall of different social networking sites, these sites, as a social practice seem to be here to stay. Secondly, social networking sites seem to be adopted by youngsters in a capricious (that is, they are always searching for the most popular one), but enduring way.


, Rental Near Quebec City Cruise Terminal Graphics – 7 Pricey Car Rental Mistakes to Avoid – AS AMERICANS hit the road this summer time, many will drive rental automobiles in different components of the country or the world. While rental automobiles could be handy, the associated costs are often confusing. Right here's a have a look at automobile rental mistakes that could price you cash – and easy methods to keep away from them.
However, if you don't have your personal auto coverage or you're involved about potential premium will increase ought to you must file a claim with your auto policy, the automotive rental firm's insurance coverage might make sense.
3. Not purchasing round – Automotive rental charges can fluctuate relying on the corporate or the amount of lead time, so it pays to shop round as an alternative of taking a "one-and-done" approach. Websites corresponding to CarRentalSavers.com and AutoSlash.com help you comparison store between rental companies and search for coupons. AutoSlash will even monitor your rental charges and rebook for you if the speed drops.
When you're planning to drive lengthy distances, test for mileage caps. "Many rental firms supply unlimited miles for the automobile rental period, allowing you to drive the automotive as much as you want without facing additional charges," says Angie Hicks, founding father of AngiesList.com. "However others might assess further fees for surpassing a daily mileage most. Should you hire a vehicle, particularly for a interval quite a lot of days, ensure you have limitless miles or adequate miles to cover your travels." When selecting between a rental with unlimited miles and a cheaper rental with a mileage cap, it's possible you'll come out forward with the former.
4. Prepaying for fuel – Prepaying for gas could seem convenient (who wants to plan extra time for a pit cease on the way in which to an early morning flight?) however it means you'll pay for a full tank of fuel, even for those who return with the tank half full. "It's better to replenish your self since you may often find cheaper fuel prices at a close-by station anyway," says shopper and money-saving knowledgeable Andrea Woroch. "However don't neglect to fill it up because the associated fee to do so after drop-off can be a whole rip-off." Make sure to prime off the gasoline, as a result of some corporations will cost you even when the gas gauge is only a hair away from where it ought to be.
5. Paying further for GPS or a automobile seat – Automobile rental corporations are completely satisfied to charge you extra for equipment like a GPS or baby automotive seat. But as Woroch factors out, a GPS can value an additional $10 per day or more. "Use your smartphone when potential, or print instructions using your hotel's free enterprise middle," she says. When you've got a conveyable GPS you would pack in your suitcase and use in your journey, keep in mind to take away it from the rental automobile in your return.
In response to Sarah Schlichter, senior editor of IndependentTraveler.com, many airways will permit you to test a automobile seat or apply it to the airplane for free, so that you don't must pay extra to use one from your rental car firm.
6. Speeding by means of the inspection – Totally examine your rental automobile earlier than you drive away. Otherwise, you could be charged for damage you didn't trigger. "Most rental automotive fleets are maintained meticulously, however damages like scratches or dents within the physique or spills, stains or tears within the inside can go unnoticed," Hicks says. "If you happen to see any put on, damage or defect in the course of the inspection, ensure you instantly make the corporate aware – otherwise you might end up paying for it." By no means assume that a ding is just too small to warrant noting or that the automotive firm already knows about damage. If it's not listed on the automobile condition type, converse up.
7. Returning a automobile late. Most car rental companies charge every day charges based on 24-hour periods. "While some may give a 29-minute grace period, chances are you'll be charged late fees – or for a full additional day – in the event you return the car past that time window," Schlichter says. Allow plenty of time on the day you are returning your automotive to avoid this additional price.
6 automobile rental suggestions that can save you cash and frustration – Renting a car will be costly, but it surely's often a vital a part of a visit. Like airfare or resort charges, car rental charges might be comparatively opaque, and it can be exhausting to figure out rules like timing and tips to save money.
While determining and predicting automobile rental rates could be troublesome, there are still just a few straightforward methods to economize with out having to make major changes to your journey plans.
1. Always evaluate rental agencies — including some less widespread ones.
Nearly everyone knows the big manufacturers — Hertz, Avis, Enterprise, and so forth — however there are a number of less obvious manufacturers which will offer better charges. Finances, Sixt, Thrifty, and Fox are only a few of the obtainable ones. To cowl all your bases, you'll be able to book through a web-based journey agency web site — like Hotwire or Priceline — to match a few different rentals.
Hotwire gives steep discounts via "opaque reserving," a practice the place you make and prepay a booking with out realizing exactly which company you're reserving with — it will nonetheless be a major agency, though.
While it could sound dangerous, it is actually completely high quality — you may know exactly how a lot you are paying, where you will be selecting up and dropping off, what class of automobile it is (and generally the precise model), and any phrases. Unless you are useless set on a sure agency, this is a nice approach to save a fortune.
Likelihood is excellent that your private home auto insurance policy covers rentals that you just drive. Whereas the rental agent could try and strain you into purchasing extra coverage, this is typically pointless and redundant to your existing protection. Simply make sure to examine your policy earlier than assuming that you simply're covered.
In the event you do not own a automotive, or if your property policy does not cover rentals, you may still have protection.
Various widespread bank cards, including the Chase Sapphire Preferred and the Sapphire Reserve, include free primary auto rental insurance. "Major" means that it kicks in before another policy that you've. When you get into an accident and have main protection separate from your home policy, which means the accident won't need to be reported to your private insurance, so you will not see a fee spike.
In order to activate the insurance coverage that comes with a credit card, you'll have to use that card to pay for the rental, and decline the final rental insurance, additionally known as a "collision damage waiver (CDW)" or "loss harm waiver (LDW)" provided by the rental company. If you don't have your own automotive insurance coverage, you should still want to contemplate including legal responsibility insurance coverage.
This isn't a hard-and-fast rule, however basically, rental charges at airports are costlier than charges a little bit bit further away. Strive on the lookout for charges from pick-up spots nearer to your lodge, or even in the metropolis middle.
Be sure to all the time examine those to rates from airport businesses, though — sometimes, the value distinction shall be negligible, or the airport would possibly even be cheaper. Additionally do not forget that you'll want to arrange transportation to the rental agency, whether or not you possibly can take a hotel shuttle, or it's important to pay for mass transit or a taxi into the city.
GPS navigation. Satellite tv for pc radio. Speaker cellphone. Automotive rental businesses might provide these options if you decide up your car, however beware — they all come with additional fees that may add up shortly. Nowadays, there's no must pay additional when you could have a smartphone that can do all of that and more.
6. Verify weekly rates — even in the event you solely want the automobile for a couple of days.
It might seem paradoxical, but it may be cheaper to lease a car for longer.That's as a result of the bulk of people that rent a car for just a couple of days at a time are business travelers, who're much less cost-conscious because their workplaces are paying or the journey is last minute and pressing. Conversely, many week-long renters try to save, since they tend to be leisure vacationers. Because of that, the weekly rate is usually cheaper than the speed for simply three or four days.

Brand New Deal
As relevant as ever, Formula Renault has adapted from 2016 to the new hierarchy on the ladder to F1, without its success ever being denied. Ideally situated between karting, F4 and F3, Formula Renault returns to a turbo engine from 2019 to continue training the champions of tomorrow through an extremely competitive universe.

Periodontics is part of restorative dentistry and is the treatment of the supporting structures of the teeth namely the gums, bones, the hard connective tissue covering the tooth root (cementum) and ligaments.
Periodontal disease (gum disease) is caused by bacteria found in the plaque that forms on teeth. This disease is not so serious when it is called gingivitis and symptoms include inflammation of the gums which can lead to bleeding when brushing. The good news is, gingivitis can be reversed and gum health will improve with correct tooth brushing. Usually, your Dental will refer you to the Dental Hygienist, who is specifically trained in cleaning the teeth, they are also expert at teaching you how to look after your teeth and gums.
If gingivitis is not reversed, it can progress to periodontitis which results in destruction of the gum tissue and ligaments that connect teeth to the bone – this may eventually lead to tooth loss.
Levels of periodontitis also increase with age and this is irreversible. Treatment is aimed at reducing the rate the disease progresses with the aim of keeping teeth intact.
