Cardinal Bernard Law is originally from Mexico just like the serial pedophile rapist-priest Father Marcial Maciel, founder of the Legion of Christ, whom the Opus Dei protected during the 27 years papacy of John Paul II. It was also the Opus Dei who made their puppet John Paul II elevate Cardinal Law to Rome after he resigned in disgrace as Cardinal of Boston after admitting that he transferred aided and abetted more than 80 rapists-priests in Boston. Way to go Opus Dei, Octopus Dei of the Devil!!!

ROME HAS LOST THE FAITH
WILL SOON BECOME THE SEAT OF THE FALSE CHRIST (John Paul II)
This is what we announced on March 19, 2002...
...and of course it did.
As most of those who are willing to look at reality eye-to-eye and not deny it, the scandal of having appointed the tainted Cardinal Law to the be the titular Cardinal of St. Mary Major in Rome - the most important Basilica of The Immaculate One (1) - should be more than enough to confirm that what may appear as a fog in Rome from time to time is the smoke of satan seeping out of the Vatican and polluting Rome as well as the rest of the world.
Before reviewing the pressure Law had to endure before he finally cave in, giving up his humble abode just to assume the the command of the Flagship Basilica of the Immaculate One, it may be wise to review who (2) seem to be Law's "godparents".
In a very pro Opus Dei book written by John Allen to counter the alleged harm caused by The Da Vinci Code (3) we read (4):
"Another cardinal with historic ties to Opus Dei is the former archbishop of Boston, Cardinal Bernard Law, currently archpriest of Saint Mary Major in Rome.
Law met Opus Dei while a student at Harvard in the 1950s, when an early group of members came to the campus from Spain. Law, born in Mexico, spoke Spanish fluently and befriended them. When he left Harvard in 1953, he asked a friend, William Stetson, to keep an eye on the Spaniards. Statson went on to become a priest of Opus Dei, living at Villa Tevere in Rome, then serving as vicar in Chicago. Today he runs the Catholic Information Center in Washington DC.
Stetson and Law have remained friends, and when Law was designated by the Vatican to handle cases of Episcopalian clergy who wish to be received into the Catholic Church, Stetson served as his aide.
In 1985, when Law was made a cardinal, he invited the prelate of Opus Dei, Alvaro del Portillo, to his honorary dinner in Rome. According to Stetson, Portillo later said that he'd never been treated as generously by another cardinal. Law's reputation, however, was badly damaged by his resignation from Boston amid a sex abuse scandal, facing accusations that he had ignored evidence that several of his clergy were abusing children."
As we have said many times, even satan must serve God... and, through the Grace of God, here we have a touted as independent, but pro Opus Dei, book giving the world the details how come Law never fell off from the Vatican's Grace and why he was so generously rewarded in his exile of shame. Of course, "the frosting" in such perverse cake was the appointing of San Francisco's Archbishop Levada as Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith - that is - the Guardian of the Doctrine of the Catholic Faith.

DETAILS of Cardinal Law's Shame
Monday March 18 10:49 PM ET
Cardinal Law Faces Calls to Resign
By JUSTIN POPE, Associated Press Writer
BOSTON (AP) - With the Boston Archdiocese engulfed in a sex scandal, Cardinal Bernard Law is resisting growing demands for his resignation, reflecting what some experts say is his sense of duty as well as the church's desire to preserve its hierarchy.
Law has acknowledged moving now-defrocked priest John Geoghan from parish to parish despite years of evidence Geoghan was a threat to children. Geoghan has been accused of molesting more than 130 children over 30 years.
The latest call for Law to resign came in Monday's Wall Street Journal, where former Education Secretary William J. Bennett, author of "The Book of Virtues,'' echoed a demand made previously by fellow Catholic conservative William F. Buckley and by the Boston Herald.
"Priests - including Cardinal Law - who have been involved in these cover-ups must be removed from positions of authority,'' Bennett wrote.
Geoghan is serving a nine-to-10-year prison sentence for fondling a boy in a swimming pool. Because of the scandal, Law has apologized and turned over to prosecutors the names of more than 80 current and former priests suspected of child abuse over the past 50 years.
But Law, 70, has shown no intention of stepping down as leader of the fourth-largest U.S. archdiocese, with 2 million Catholics. He has been archbishop since 1984, and up until this crisis, was regarded as perhaps the most powerful American prelate in the Roman Catholic Church.
"Archbishop is not a corporate executive,'' Law said at a Mass last month. "He's not a politician. It's a role of pastor. It's a role of teacher. It's a role of a father. When there are problems in the family, you don't walk away. You work them out together with God's help.''
Those who have followed Law's career say they are not surprised. Boston College historian Thomas Wangler recalled how Law risked his life working for civil rights in Mississippi during the 1960s, traveling in car trunks for protection from segregationists.
"He's a tough, hardened engager of events and issues, the kind that comes only from having your life threatened for what you believe,'' Wangler said.
But perhaps more important, theologians and church historians said, is the church's belief that being part of the hierarchy is a lifetime commitment to an institution.
For a bishop to resign is an "immensely damaging mark against the church,'' said University of Notre Dame historian R. Scott Appleby. "These people, cardinals, archbishops, are the very pinnacle of the hierarchy in the church, so it suggests a flaw in the church itself rather a few bad apples in the bunch.''
"I believe he feels that it is his duty to remain,'' said Eugene Kennedy, a Loyola University of Chicago professor and author of "The Unhealed Wound: The Church and Human Sexuality.'' "I believe he feels committed by becoming a cardinal to maintaining the integrity of the institution. To give up his position, from his point of view, would do more damage to the institution than it would help it.''
Some have suggested that once the headlines go away Law may step aside, or perhaps be moved to a position in Rome.
Those calling for his resignation have argued that only someone new can solve the problem, and that Law's failure to appreciate the scope of the problem is serious enough to warrant his resignation.
Buckley wrote in National Review last month: "The critical concern should have been to get children out of harm's way. He didn't do that. ... One can feel with great sorrow and understanding the derangement of the arsonist, but one does not send him back into the forest.''
Many Catholics agree. A Boston Herald poll conducted last month found that 61 percent of Catholics in the archdiocese said Law should resign.
Still, even some of the alleged victims do not think resignation is the answer.
Ralph DelVecchio, who claims Geoghan molested him, recently said Law should resign. Now, he is not so sure.
"He's certainly responsible for those decisions he made back then, where he put Geoghan back in when he got the reports,'' DelVecchio, 45, said last week. "But I really do think the guy is sincere. When I watched him on TV, I thought he was really sincere when he apologized.''
Raymond Flynn, former U.S. ambassador to the Vatican and one-time mayor of Boston, said he speaks to Law often and encourages him to stay, reminding him of "all the good that he has done.'' Flynn said that Law still enjoys the support of Rome.
"This is not a political organization where majority rule wins,'' Flynn said. "The pope believes in you, he has respect and confidence in you, that's what you need.''

(5) The Track Record of Archbishop Levada -- http://www.mgr.org/LevadaTrajectory-Details.html
San Francisco Archbishop William Levada's Hidden Record
Archbishop Levada Travels to Rome with Scandal Baggage by Lee Penn
Archbishop William J. Levada is getting a big promotion, courtesy of Benedict XVI. Levada is moving from the Archdiocese of San Francisco to become the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) - Benedict's former position. Levada will be in charge of the Vatican bureaucracy that defends the Catholic faith against heresy, and deals with priests accused of abuse. As such, he will hold the second-most powerful post in the Vatican, and is the first American to hold such high rank and great influence within the Catholic Church.(1)
At his $150-a-plate farewell dinner in a San Francisco hotel on August 13 (a banquet attended by 2,300 well-wishers), Levada said that abuse by clergy is a "crisis in the United States. By and large the people in our parishes they think that the steps that our bishops of this country have taken have done a great job and are meeting the crisis and doing an outreach program trying to prevent any kind of abuse by clergy or anyone else."(2) At a news conference before the dinner, Levada said, "We have done our best to reach out" to the victims of abuse, and "I leave San Francisco with a good conscience."(3)
Levada's publicists laud his handling of the Scandal. An account in the Archdiocesan newspaper runs thus: "Though the vast majority of incidents took place before he became archbishop, Archbishop Levada has devoted much time and energy in forthrightly and compassionately attempting to heal this problem. And if he did not have enough problems in his own archdiocese, in 1999 he was appointed administrator of the Diocese of Santa Rosa to clean up the financial and sexual scandal debilitating that diocese. Again, his forthrightness and integrity moved that diocese toward healing."(4)
The Archbishop also has gathered praise from William Swing, the Episcopal Bishop of California. (Swing is the founder of the United Religions Initiative(4a), a New Age(4b) interfaith movement that includes everyone from Wiccans and Scientologists to Moonies(4c), Theosophists, and Catholics). Swing says, "I truly admire him: his heart toward God; outstanding scholar; devotion to the Church; a rich capacity for friendship; candor, strength, integrity, and grace."(5)
Levada's Vatican career began in 1976, when "then-Archbishop Joseph Bernardin, President of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops," recommended Levada's appointment to serve "as an Official of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith."(6) It was during this Vatican posting, which lasted until 1982, that Ratzinger met Levada.
Levada moves upward with the approval of his own conscience and his publicists, and with applause from his counterpart in the Episcopal Church. Are these laurels well-earned, considering how Levada has handled the clergy abuse scandal during his career?
The Archbishop's administrative record indicates otherwise. No one has ever accused Levada of abuse, but he has employed the same damage control tactics that most other American bishops have used to limit the costs and bad publicity resulting from the scandal. If Levada's track record predicts his future performance, it's likely that the Catholic Church hierarchy will continue to respond to the corruption of the priesthood and the episcopacy with half-measures, spin, and clever legal maneuvers. And now that Levada has been promoted, courtesy of the Roman Pontiff, we can justly trace the ongoing scandal and coverup to the Papal throne.
Here's the evidence:
From 1986 to 1995, Levada was the Archbishop of Portland, Oregon. This Archdiocese filed for bankruptcy protection in July 2004 - the first American diocese to do so, as a response to lawsuits by abuse survivors who were seeking $155 million in damages.(7) Within the last year, three of the Portland-area plaintiffs have committed suicide.(8) Catholic World Report states, "Several of the devastating lawsuits against the archdiocese involved priests who were restored to parish work by Archbishop Levada after having been accused of molesting children, or protected from criminal prosecution when their misdeed came to the archbishop's attention."(9) The bankruptcy came nine years after Levada left Portland, but the fallout from his stewardship continues:
1. Would an honorable man try to dodge a subpoena, and then call the process server a "disgrace to the Church"?
On August 7, minutes before he processed to the altar to begin his final Sunday Mass in San Francisco, Levada was subpoenaed to require him to testify at a deposition requested by attorneys for 250 victims in clergy abuse lawsuits against the Archdiocese of Portland.(10) Levada balked at the subpoena, accepting the document only when he was told that he would otherwise be given the papers during the liturgy while he was at the altar.(11)
As CBS News reported, "Cookie Gambucci, whose brother is one of the plaintiffs in the Portland case, served the court papers on Levada. She told KCBS reporter Tim Ryan the archbishop called her 'a disgrace to the Catholic church.' 'That's what he said. Now I'm thinking about all the priests that have abused all those little kids, including my brother,' said Gambucci, 'and I'm thinking, let's define disgrace to the church.' 'It was pretty sickening to hear that from a bishop who is hiding all of these people that are doing all of this abuse,' she said. She had tried unsuccessfully on several other occasions to serve Levada with papers.
'This is our last chance and [we] got him today,' Gambucci said."(12) (A lay minister who was in the sacristy at the time that the process server confronted the Archbishop confirms that the prelate called her "a disgrace to the Church."(13)) "Portland attorney Erin Olson, who represents 15 of the Oregon plaintiffs, said Levada had been avoiding the subpoena since May."(14) On August 11, Levada agreed to waive the diplomatic immunity that he will enjoy as a Vatican official, and will return to the US for a one-day deposition in January.(15)
2. As part of the bankruptcy litigation, all parishes in the Portland Archdiocese are listed as defendants - and so are all registered members of Portland's 124 parishes. The individual parishioners will all get legal notices in writing in the next few weeks, and "lawyers for the archdiocese say that the cost of notifying the 389,000 defendants will be about $80,000."(16) Lawyers for both sides agree that individual parishioners will not be liable to pay damages, but "parishes and schools could be closed if the court finds that they belong to the archdiocese." (17)
Having all laymen as defendants in a suit against the Church gives a new meaning to the Vatican II call for "fully conscious, and active"(18) lay participation in the life and liturgy of the Church.
3. In a July 16, 2004 article in Catholic San Francisco, Levada disavowed responsibility for the Portland bankruptcy, and blamed the victims' attorneys.
As San Francisco Faith summarized: "Archbishop Levada said that when he left Portland, the archdiocese 'was in excellent financial condition.' Even today, the archdiocese suffers no 'financial collapse;' rather, Portland's problems have 'arisen because of new allegations made in the past few years about abuse that was unknown until recently brought forward by victims.'
The 'greed of plaintiffs' attorneys,' said Levada, has exacerbated the situation. Attorneys like Anderson, he said, 'see the sex-abuse crisis as a way to push for excessive judgments for victims from which these lawyers will benefit handsomely.' Attorneys for alleged victims, said Levada, have used the claims 'of terrible sexual abuse by priests, many of whom are dead,' to get 'victims to step forward decades after the fact to push claims for huge monetary damages from bishops today who had no responsibility or oversight for those priests - claims that can be satisfied only by the threat of divesting today's parishioners of their churches, today's children of their schools, today' s poor of the Church's charitable outreach.' 'This is not justice,' said the archbishop."(19)
4. In 1994, Levada's diocesan attorneys fended off a liability suit by a woman who had been impregnated by a religious order seminarian, Mr. Uribe. One of the claims made in defense of the Church was that the mother was negligent because she had engaged in "unprotected intercourse,"(20) even though the Church teaches that use of "protection" - artificial birth control - is "intrinsically evil."(21)
The details show that Levada need not have made such a hypocritical defense. The mother had met the Redemptorist seminarian (who was then working in a Portland church) in 1991, and they soon began a consensual affair. The relationship ended seven months later, when the mother informed the seminarian that she was pregnant. The child was born in February 1993, and a paternity test proved that the seminarian was the father. As the Los Angeles Times reports, "As the birth of the baby approached," the mother sought a court order for child support from the seminarian; "she also sued the Archdiocese of Portland and the Redemptorists for $200,000. She alleged that the seminarian, by having sex with a parishioner, had breached his fiduciary duty as someone who 'performed pastoral duties for the archdiocese.'"(22)
The archdiocese replied (correctly) in 1994 that "it had never directly employed Uribe." (23) Additionally, however, "the archdiocese said the 'birth of the plaintiff's child and the resultant expenses" are the result of the plaintiff's own negligence,'" (24) because she engaged "in unprotected intercourse . . . when (she) should have known that could result in pregnancy."(25) Meanwhile, the seminarian was ordained to the priesthood in 1995 by his order - even though they knew he had a child.(26)
What do the Archbishop's defenders say? The PR man for the Archdiocese of Portland acknowledged that "Levada was well aware of the Uribe case," but denied responsibility for the tactics used by the church's attorneys: "Archbishop Levada did not see the legal defense, see it or approve it. I don't think it's realistic to expect that an archbishop can track every single legal case." (27) The attorney who devised the defense considers it routine.
Richard J. Kuhn "said he wrote Levada's answer to the complaint strictly from a 'common sense' legal perspective, without regard to Catholic teachings. However, Kuhn, an outside attorney who was hired by the archdiocese to handle the case, questions whether Levada ever saw the document. 'I doubt that the archbishop would have gotten a copy of the pleading,' he said. He said his best recollection about the proceeding was that he worked exclusively with the risk management department for the Archdiocese of Portland."(28)
Liberal and conservative Catholics alike rejected this disavowal of responsibility by the Archbishop; on this matter, Fr. Richard McBrien (a liberal theologian at Notre Dame), William Donoghue (the head of the conservative Catholic League), and J. Michael Hennigan, an attorney for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, agree that Levada should have known what the attorneys were saying in defense of the Archdiocese. (29)

Jeremy Dresch Wins Second MSPT Title at Running Aces Main Event
By Chad Holloway
Only seven players had won multiple Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) titles, but this past weekend, 42-year-old Jeremy Dresch became the eighth by winning the MSPT Running Aces Main Event for $83,045.
Cool cat: Jeremy Dresch took it all in stride when he won the MSPT Running Aces Main Event for 2016. (Image: MSPT)
Back in Season One of the MSPT, which was then known as the Minnesota State Poker Tour, Dresch won the tour's second stop, and the first-ever at Grand Casino Mille Lacs. In the years that followed, Dresch racked up 10 MSPT cashes for $172,258 and seven final table appearances. With his win, he also tied another record for most final tables in tour history, as both he and Everett Carlton have made it eight times.
It was also a story of redemption, since Dresch finished sixth in the same event five months earlier. The $83,045 win, the largest of Dresch's career, brought his live tournament earnings up to $659,057 and saw him leapfrog four players into 22nd place on Minnesota's all-time money list. He's also a three-time Heartland Poker Tour champ and the first player to win back-to-back events on that tour.
"Long time coming," Dresch said of the win. "I never look beyond the weekend; I'll decide what to play on Wednesdays. I didn't even know this tournament was going on, I had no idea. My buddy told me earlier in the week, so I played it."
Navigating a Tough Field
Dresch topped a field of 344 entries (159 on Day 1A and 185 on 1B) to win the MSPT Running Aces Main Event. He late-registered the tournament on Day 1A and only fired one bullet. The 160,500 he brought into Day 2 put him 18th among the 59 returning players.
The tournament, which surpassed the advertised $200,000 guarantee by creating a $344,000 total prize pool, paid 36 spots. That meant that 23 players left empty-handed on Sunday, including MSPT Pro Matt Kirby, MSPT Potawatomi champ Travis Lauson, and bubble boy Mike Juszczak.
Among the players to cash the event were Running Aces Season Two champ Jason Seitz (34th/$2,093), two-time MSPT champ Peixin Liu (28th/$2,093), the original MSPT Running Aces winner Joe Matheson (18th/$3,322), Minnesota Poker Hall of Famer Mike Schneider (15th/$4,651), and MSPT Pro Blake Bohn (13th/$4,651).
Big Slick Kicks Cowboys to the Curb
The final table began with Dresch holding the chip lead, but that didn't last long, as a bunch of players, especially Vic Peppe, gave him trouble.
Andy Beberg, who had finished eighth in the same event back in April, was eliminated in ninth place, while Kraig Komrosky, a month removed from topping a field of 458 entrants to win the MSPT Regional Grand Casino Mille Lacs, exited in eighth.
Dresch's most notable hand came during five-handed play, when his Big Slick cracked the pocket kings of Bradley Demotts after an ace spiked on the flop. Heads-up play began with Peppe holding a slight lead over Dresch, but the latter used his vast experience to slowly chip away at Peppe.
After an hour, he held a significant chip lead and closed it out after getting it in with pocket fives and holding against Peppe's jack-six suited.
The MSPT continues October 8-16 at FireKeepers Casino with a series of satellites and an $1,100 buy-in, $300,000 guaranteed Michigan State Poker Championship Main Event.

TV Suggestions for Those With Colds, Flu, or Bronchitis
Posted on January 2, 2020	by brucesmith49
By Bruce A. Smith
To those of us sniffling, coughing, hacking, and otherwise dealing with illnesses, may I suggest a few good movies and TV shows that I've enjoyed during my past two weeks laid up with bronchitis.
1. The Irishman – Netflix. It's the epic, 3.5 hour long, tale of a hit man who worked for a variety of Mafioso and related folks like Jimmy Hoffa. Exhausting, but good.
2. The Two Popes – Netflix. This is a surprise treat. Excellent movie about the transfer of power from Pope Benedict to Francis. Fascinating, moving, and a great exploration of the dynamics at work inside the Catholic Church. I wept at the end; it was that good a movie.
3. Killing Eve – Hulu. A charming, yet gripping, tale of an MI 6 agent and a freelance assassin who fall in love with each other while one is causing havoc in Europe and the other tries to stop her. Sandra Oh, as Eve, won an Emmy. Her lover, Villanelle, played by Judy Comer, is Oh's equal.
4. Occupied, Season Three – Netflix. This is one of the best written, most fantastically creative and intelligent TV shows ever. It is a Norwegian TV series that takes place in the near future – 2030-2034 or so. It follows the political, social, economic and military impacts as Norway seeks to confront rising sea levels in northern Europe due to climate change. In response to devastating shoreline and maritime destruction, such as loss of fisheries and coastal cities, Norway stops all production of oil and natural gas production at its wells in the North Sea. This triggers profound responses from the EU, who are then subjected to intense economic and public pressures by the then 500 million folks who live in Europe. The EU convinces Russia to stage a bloodless coup in Norway, take over the oil fields, and restore production. Season 1 is that story. Season 2 is the rebellion within Norway as freedom fighters try to throw out the Russkies without any EU, NATO, or US support. The freedom fighters lose, but everyone in Norway has taken a side – whom to ally with, whom to trust, whom to fight, etc. The shifting alliances are intense and tragic. Season 3 just came out January 1, and it shows all the backroom deals energy suppliers engage to insure continued relative economic prosperity and political stability while Norway is gripped by attacks against collaborators, profiteers, Russian oil workers, etc. Until the Green Party hackers get going and sabotage the energy grids of western Europe.
5. Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee – Netflix. The 6th season – and its best – has just come out of this, Jerry Seinfeld's quirky but fascinating series of interviews with the leading comics of our day, such as Eddie Murphy, Kate McKinnon, Tracey Morgan and Ellen DeGeneres. Insightful, heartfelt, light-hearted, and very educational about the art of making people laugh. Each show is about 20 minutes and is a sweet cup of java for the mind.
6. Hitler's Last Stand – Hulu. This six-part series covers pivotal battles of the western allies attack on Nazi Germany. Each episode is superbly researched and offers keen insights to the sacrifices and challenges each side faced. The last episode is the kicker – the Battle of Itter Castle in northern Austria, the only known battle of WW II where US armored personnel and their tanks joined forces with regular German Wehrmacht infantry to defend prisoners of war against their extermination by 150 SS fanatics. This battle took place in the Alps five days after Hitler's death and two days before Germany's surrender.
7. Madam Secretary – Amazon. Season 6. The final season of this sweet, smart, and satisfying political drama culminates in M-Sec's becoming the first woman president of the United States. Not as good at times as Seasons 1-5, which were Rock Solid, but the crew finds its way by the end. I wept saying goodbye to some really stellar characters.
How to Watch:
I get the medium level Netflix package for 12 bucks a month. Hulu is $15, and Amazon $10 and change, but it's the limited package.


A restaurant and bar near Symphony Hall that has been a long time in the making has finally opened.
According to a Facebook post from Drew Starr, The Westland is now open on Westland Avenue, taking over the space where Symphony 8 had once been. As mentioned earlier, the new spot is a tavern that features American fare, and the place also offers beer, wine, cocktails, and spirits including what Starr says is an extensive list of whiskeys. The person behind The Westland is Douglas Bacon, who has been working on getting the place to open for several years and was actually warned by the Boston Licensing Board that he had until this past November to show significant progress on getting it ready to open or risk losing the restaurant's license.
Symphony 8 debuted in the fall of 2009, featuring modern American fare and comfort food, while also having a hidden basement bar called Prohibited where a password was required to get in. The place shut down in 2013 and the space has remained vacant until now.
The address for The Westland is 8 Westland Avenue, Boston, MA, 02115.

Q: Google Places API: how to search by type and location in Python I'm following the example I found on the main page of GitHub relative to googlemaps and I'm writing my own code in order to retrieve all cinemas from a specific area.
The code is this:
import googlemaps

gmaps = googlemaps.Client(key='MyGoogleKey')

search_loction = gmaps.location('40.714224, -73.961452').type('movie_theater')
print (search_loction)

It returns me the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "GoogleMap.py", line 5, in <module>
    search_loction = gmaps.location('40.714224, -73.961452')
AttributeError: 'Client' object has no attribute 'location'

If I follow the guide, yes, the attribute [location] is allowed

So what am I doing wrong?

A: According to the documentation, you should use
gmaps.places(...) with the location as a parameter.
Something like
gmaps.places(location=(lat,lng), type="movie_theater")
Hope this helps!

Mayawati inspires Neha Dhupia
Gurgaon, Nov 26 (Calcutta Tube) Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia says she took inspiration from Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati to get her regional dialect right for her role of a female gangster in upcoming comedy 'Phas Gaye Re Obama'.
'As I play a gangster from UP in the film, I had to get that language right and so I observed Mayawati to learn how she speaks. She is the only woman whose dialect, whether she is serious or funny, is extremely monotonous. So I have tried to incorporate this in my character. However, my character is not inspired by her,' Neha told IANS.
The actress was here at PVR BluO in Ambience Mall to promote her new film along with co-stars Rajat Kapoor, Sanjay Mishra and director Subhash Kapoor.
The former Miss India has donned the role of a dacoit, Munni Madam, in the film directed by Subhash Kapoor. The film, which is due to release Dec 3 alongside Ashutosh Gowariker's 'Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey', is set against the backdrop of global recession that originated in the US.
Although Neha is the only female lead in the film but the actress admits she is more of a boy than a girl.
'I am not the heroine of the film. I am one of heroes. It is a male part in a female form,' she added.

High anxiety - Macleans.ca
High anxiety
The generation now entering university is the most anxious since the 1930s
by Julia Belluz
Ting Hoo/Getty Images
By the time Victoria Ciciretto left her family's home in Kleinburg, Ont., to live and study at the University of Toronto, the 18-year-old was already a seasoned world traveller. "I'd gone away for a month in Europe for summer school in Grade 10," she says. "I took a Grade 12 course in Greece," she adds. "And the year before last, I studied English in England."
Presumably, moving 40 km away from home would be easy, but instead the arts and science student was filled with anxiety. "For my first week, I was like, 'Oh my god, why would people say this is the most amazing time of your life?' "
She was nervous about living in a dorm, about classes and homework, about what major to choose and if she would make friends. There was a reason she could handle summers overseas, but was scared of university. "I had really good friends with me when I went travelling," she says. "When I went to university, I didn't know anybody."
Ciciretto's concerns are not unusual. For some, anxiety is a normal reaction to stress and loneliness. For others, it's a serious mental health issue—one that afflicts university-aged students more than any other age group.
Statistics Canada's 2006 Community Health Survey of Mental Health and Well-being revealed that people aged 15 to 24 are most likely to experience anxiety disorders, with 6.5 per cent reporting an anxiety disorder in the past year. Studies in Canada and the U.S. have also shown that about 30 per cent of post-secondary students suffer from a mental health or substance abuse issue, compared to 18 per cent of the general population. Researchers from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland found today's college students suffer from anxiety and depression at a higher rate than every generation since the 1930s.
Why all this stress during what's supposed to be the most exciting time of life? Michael Van Ameringen, a professor in the department of psychiatry at McMaster University, explains that it may be timing. The co-director of the anxiety disorders clinic on campus since 1985 says students are at the peak age of susceptibility. "The university cohort is entering the age of risk for onset of psychological disorders," he says. The first episodes of clinical depression, panic disorders and generalized anxiety typically manifest in the late teens or early twenties. That risk, paired with normal stress about the whole university or college experience, makes it the most vulnerable time.
Novelist Patricia Pearson swam through her undergraduate degree in her hometown of Toronto, but generalized anxiety disorder hit her during grad school, when she found herself alone in Chicago at the age of 23. In her book, A Brief History of Anxiety: Yours and Mine, she concludes that anxiety is more often a product of culture and circumstance (like loneliness) than something written in our biology. "There is data on the fact that in a country like Mexico, where there's less onus on the individual and it's more collective, anxiety doesn't last as long," she says.
The Mexican example and other cross-national psychological literature revealed that tight-knit communities with collective rituals in place—say churchgoing or fiestas—tended to be healthier. "You don't feel as isolated and you don't feel like it's all about you," she says. But university, Pearson points out, is often all about you; it's a period of isolation from social supports.
In Generation Me, Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology at San Diego State University, attributes anxiety to the individualism that characterizes the group born after the 1970s and she links it to unrealistic optimism. Yes, according to Twenge, there is such a thing as too much optimism: young people ("Generation Me") have been brought up with unrealistic expectations about how their lives will turn out. "When things don't happen the way they expect, they can hit anxiety and depression," she says.
In other words, they have less access to the traditional social connections that promote mental health, such as closeness to family, stable relationships and a strong sense of community, so they're more likely to experience anxiety disorders. If anxiety becomes disruptive, Twenge suggests students should pay a visit to the university counselling service, or talk to elders who have life experience. "But these rough periods can be a learning experience, too," she says. "Things don't have to be perfect all the time."

According to Forbes, sources inside Facebook confirm $500 million investment via Goldman Sachs and other investors. This would value Facebook at roughly $50 billion. This is on the heels of a recent valuation based on a sale of about a half a billion shares of Facebook in secondary market trading (see the story here http://techcrunch.com/2010/11/29/facebook-now-worth-50-billion-in-secondary-trading/ ).
Many think this valuation is insane at about 25X earnings (Facebook's earnings are reported at about 2 billion).
You MUST have a solid social media strategy and it must include Facebook.

Victoria's Letters: Liberation
A THOUSAND YEARS OF ROYALTY • 59m
Although deeply in love with her husband, Victoria often felt constrained by Prince Albert. In an era when it was unusual for a gentleman to default to his wife, it was felt he used her pregnancies as a way to gain power. After his death Victoria was bereft but, as her diaries show, also became freer to move in the world of politics and make the deep friendships that some would say began to threaten the crown. A fascinating insight into a double-edged marriage.

His name was Yeager a 24 year old man left for dead in his hotel room after a fight broke loose over drugs; I suppose you could call it a drug deal gone bad. I'll tell you a little more about this story. Yeager was selling drugs to this kid named Ghandi about 2-3 times a week he was ripping him off real bad. He bought drugs only through Yeager for a long time cause he didn't know anyone else. But one day Ghandi was with some of his other friends really bad into drugs, he was telling him about prices and amounts he gets. Gandhi's friend shakes his head
Edward Gein: A Serial Killer
They checked into a hotel room and drank heavily. The following morning, Toumi was dead. Dahmer claims to have found Toumi dead beside him when he woke up. He bought a large suitcase to transport the body to his grandmother's basement.Then he had sex with and, masturbated on the corpse before dismembering it and disposing of the remains in the garbage. On July 22, 1991, when two Milwaukee police officers picked up Tracy Edwards, a young African-American man who was wandering the streets with a handcuff dangling from his wrist, they decided to investigate the man's claims that Dahmer had drugged and restrained him.When they arrived at Dahmer's apartment, he calmly offered to get the keys for the handcuffs.
Peggy Hettrick Essay
Peggy Hettrick case is a case that revolves around the unsolved murder of Peggy Hettrick in 1987 in Fort Collins. In this case, Tim Masters was accused for the murder of Peggy in cold blood. He was charged and then convicted of killing Peggy Hettrick. Nevertheless, Tim Masters was later exonerated of the charges that had been filed against him. This exoneration was after he had been locked behind bars for several years.
Ted Bundy: A Brief History Of Serial Killers
In June 1978, when he was eighteen years old, he killed his mother and father. After that he enrolled in college, and then signed up for the Army. He was discharged after two years for alcoholism. He was arrested on different accounts for fondling a thirteen year old boy, public exposure for masturbating in public. He served a year in half total and he was required to register as a sex offender.
Case Study Two Hells Angels
The officer, who is not being identified to protect his cover, was attacked in Cancun. The officer was vacationing with several colleagues when he recognized the Hells associates during a trip to a bar. The defendants allegedly noticed him when he pulled out a camera to snap some pictures of them. Police say the officer was grabbed and taken into a nearby tent where he was held for several hours and beaten mercilessly.
John Wayne Gacy John Wayne Gacy was a recognized serial killer in the late 1970's. Between the years of 1972 to 1978 Gacy had apparently sexually assaulted and murdered approximately 33 younger males. John Wayne Gacy was the serial killer of choice because I had never really found much interest in him. I had heard of him but never knew the whole story. I didn't want to do a classic serial killer who everyone else was going to be writing on.
An Essay About Tupac Life
Soon after dropping this album there was a big feud with the East-coast and West-coast rap style. There was a lot of verbal fighting against Tupac and Biggie, another New York rapper. He went to jail once again and served eight months because of parole arrangement. His record company had paid a bond of 1.4 million by the CEO of Death Row Labels Marion "Suge" Knight. On September 7, 1996 as Tupac was leaving the MGM casino with Knight, another car pulled up and shot Shakur.
Henry Thoreau's Life And Mental Illness
After he came back from Walden Pond he ran into a tax collector who asked Him to pay six years of late taxes. Henry refused because he believed his taxes were supporting the Mexican-American War and slavery. He was thrown into jail for the night where he wrought his famous essay, Civil Disobedience, which was later published. Although I don't agree with Henry for not paying his taxes, and I believe that he fought an internal war against mental illness (he may have had mental illnesses as demonstrated from him living in isolation from the world for two years, having issues with authority. Both of these are signs of schizophrenia) I have to say that the man was a hero in one aspect.
Charles Manson's Execution Essay: The Manson Murders
The sadistic murders of director, Roman Polanski and his wife, actress Sharon Tate took place on that day. The following day Manson instigated another killing spree, this time at the home of wealthy couple Leno LaBianca and his wife, Rosemary. He directed his 'disciples' to the location and ordered them to kill everyone Manson convinced his Family members to commit the crimes for him. Therefore, Manson only constructed the murders, never actually taking part in any of the murders. Throughout the duration of just two days, seven innocent people lost their lives.
Ohio Shooting Case Study
Ohio Shooting In Dayton, Ohio there was a shooting at a Veterans Affairs hospital which led to an injured employee. One of the cops said employee Paul Burnside was shot on Monday in the ankle struggling to get a gun from someone. It is said that Neil Moore was on the other side of the gun and left right after the shooting. Police found Moore at a different hospital where he was looking for psychiatric treatment. Authorities are saying Burnside and Moore knew each other and they were fighting over the gun.
The Starkweather Homicide
A few years later he started dating thirteen-year-old Caril Ann Fugate. After his father kicked him out of the house for crashing his car, he became a garbage man(he was later sacked). Believing he was doomed to a lifetime of drudgery and poverty, he started plotting bank robberies and developed his guiding belief that "dead people are all on the same level." His first murder took place on November 30, 1957. He had tried to buy a stuffed toy for his girlfriend from a gas station, but had been refused credit. He returned at three in the morning with a 12-guage shotgun, robbed $100 from the till and, after a scuffle, he shot the attendant in the head at point blank range.

Q: Snowflake invalid materialized view definition When running in Snowflake the following command:
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW MV_CUSTOMER_PREFERENCE as select * from V_CUSTOMER_PREFERENCE;

I get the following error:

SQL compilation error: error line {0} at position {1} Invalid materialized view definition. More than one table referenced in the view definition

V_CUSTOMER_PREFERENCE is an existing and functioning view (it can be queried separately), that joins information from different tables. I get the same error when I put the original query instead of the view, it's just a long and complicated SQL query.
What can be the problem with the query in the view? I cannot understand it from the error description and I didn't find related restrictions in https://docs.snowflake.net/manuals/user-guide/views-materialized.html

A: A materialized view can query only a single table. You can see the list of limitations for working with materialized views here:
https://docs.snowflake.net/manuals/user-guide/views-materialized.html#limitations-on-creating-materialized-views

A: That is correct:  Unlike other databases, MVIEWS in Snowflake are a very targeted and simplified feature.  They have the following use cases:

*

*Provide Alternative Clustering for tables with multiple access paths.

*Provide Project/Restrict on high use columns/rows.

Journey to Shikoku, the fourth largest island in Japan and home to the 88 Temple Pilgrimage Trail. This incredibly deep spiritual route has inspired pilgrims for centuries, with very little being known about its origin, the trail also has a mysterious connection with Kobo Daishi, founder of Shingon Buddhism. Even today, it is not a rare sight to see pilgrims around the island wearing their distinctive attire and white cloaks. The full pilgrimage route encompasses more than a thousand kilometers around Shikoku and connects 88 Buddhist temples. Pilgrims traditionally would trek the pilgrimage trail on foot over several weeks going from temple to temple. Join All Japan Tours as we take you through Shikoku, exploring the stunning trails and ancient temples.
For this tour, we have selected the absolute best walking trails that pass through charming landscapes and explore the historic route. We will visit all four of Shikoku's prefectures – Tokushima in the east, Kagawa in the north, Ehime in the west, and Kochi in the south. Each prefecture has its own special character, food, and scenery that we will be able to enjoy. In addition to exploring the pilgrimage trail, our journey will also take us to the isolated Iya Valley located deep in the heart of Shikoku. Our pilgrimage journey begins with a stay on Wakayama's 'Mount Koya', the hilltop temple complex on Honshu established by Kobo Daishi, as well as an important location for enthusiasts of the pilgrimage route. With public transport being rather limited in the rural areas of Shikoku, we will travel primarily by private vehicle. However, we will still be able to enjoy traveling from temple to temple through countryside and forest along the ancient route. Our accommodations throughout the route will be traditional country inns while we enjoy the regional cuisine prepared from local ingredients from the wondrous island. We will also be able to rejuvenate and soak in natural hot springs, as well as enjoy the superb hospitality, known as 'omotenashi' in Japanese, of our lovely hosts.
For those looking to explore Japan's ancient culture, history, and religion while exploring the countryside, this tour is a wonderful choice. You will explore hidden gems and enjoy the scenery as you hike the trails on the 88 Temple Pilgrimage Route, as many pilgrims have done in the past and still do today.

About B.A.
Ryan Johnson opened the first B.A. Burrito location on Copeland Avenue back in 2008. His vision was to combine bold flavors into a tortilla instead of sandwich bread, thus creating signature entrees, mainly in the form of burritos, but also available in other variations. Ryan's vision grew into multiple locations, but one goal remained constant: provide a great flavor and customer service experience to all guests!
In December of 2017, Paul and Debbie Hosch assumed ownership of the B.A. Burrito Company. They share Ryan's love of creating tasty entrees, thinking outside the box, and philosophy of customer service. There are now two B.A. Burrito locations in La Crosse!
BURRITO ARTISTRY
Two words that you don't see together very often, but at B.A. Burrito, they're words to live by! We are always looking for new flavors, and new combinations of flavors to put in our canvasses made from tortillas. But we don't limit ourselves... we can put the same ingredients into other forms that still explode with taste!

Case Study: Chain-break Bridging
Posted on 10/16/2020 by averil
In a recent completion at Greenfield Mortgages, a client was in a difficult position where they needed to secure funds to purchase their new home in Anglesey overlooking Snowdonia. Their dilemma was that the sale of their current home wasn't ready to proceed. The net loan amount was £132,000, the remaining funds came from the client's personal savings.
Greenfield Mortgages was happy to assist with a regulated chain-breaking bridge and provided the funds required. The client plans on paying back the loan facility once their inheritance is received from the sale of their late mother's property.
Terms were agreed for 12 months at a monthly rate of 0.65% with no exit fee and no ERC. A first charge was secured against the client's new home. The net LTV was 38.82% against the purchase price of £340,000. No evidence of serviceability required as there are no monthly payments, just a bullet repayment to settle once their late mother's property is sold.

Irkutsk is obliged to merchants a lot. Its role in cultural and scientific growth of the city and origin is difficult to overestimate.
We are not going to idealize Irkutsk merchants - fabulous profits were made not only by legal ways. This is the way how a longstanding city head V.P.Sukachev, who belonged himself to this class wrote: "Dominating both in the Duma, and in the magistrate, rich and strong Irkutsk merchants in the late XVIII - early XIX were engaged in all public and urban problems, and solved them extremely in their own interests". But, having huge money, the Siberian merchants could allow themselves to allocate considerable sums on arrangement of life in the native city. Most of churches, Irkutsk was famous for, grammar schools, schools, hospitals, shelters, libraries, shops, most beautiful buildings were constructed and kept by merchants. Their personal libraries surprised metropolitan library amateurs . So the phrase "Irkutsk is merchants city" has quite actual sense. The city was inhabited, mainly, by the merchants, and was ruled by, basically, representatives of the middle class.
The first City Duma head was Irkutsk merchant Michael Vasilyevich Sibiryakov (1744-1814). More than forty years Irkutsk citizens elected him on the post of civil manager, verbal judge, mayor, president of the regional magistrate and the city head. For the special merits in a public service he was awarded with a rank "honored Irkutsk citizen". M.V.Sibiryakov owned river and sea ships, going on the Angara, Yenisei and Baikal. His fish catch on Baikal expanded from an Ambassadorial monastery to modern Sludyanka. He kept the Telma cloth manufacture, then linen one in Irkutsk. Sibiryakov used an exclusive right of delivery of vitally necessary goods: bread, salt, meat, state lead from the Nerchinskii district to the Voskresensko-Koluvanskie mountain factories of the Altai.
Afterwards many representatives of Irkutsk merchants combined commercial activity with a public one. In 1817-1825 the son of Michael Vasilievich Sibiryakov – Xenofont (1772-1825) headed the City Duma. According to chroniclers he was noted for his intellect, strong-willed character. Xenofont Mikhailovich had river and sea ships, delivered state lead from Nerchinsk to the Altai, salt, wine, food and other goods to the Zabaikalie area. He traded in Irkutsk merchant guest yard, in Kyakhta, at Siberian and Russian fairs. In Xenofont Mikhailovich's family the yard people lived and among them a karakalpak was bought at the Irbitskoi fair, called as Alexander Xenofontovich Sibiryakov (1794-1868). A contemporary recollected Ksenofont: " He could not restrain his impressions in any way, instantly took a great interest and in gusty self-possession performed court and punishment with "chubuk" or a fist. He used to sit on a coach, and tell coachman where to go, when the coachman arrived, the passenger was not present: Having noticed during his travel any disorder, Sibiryakov instantly went off the coach, ran into the house or shop and punished the guilty. With such a man people behaved silently... ".
Many things are connected with the family of Sibiryakov: construction of the most beautiful palace in the city - the White House, which later became the residence of the generals – governors; a portrait of Gavriil Derzavin in the sable fur coat, presented him by Sibiryakov, made by an Italian artist Tonchi' brush, a legendary ice breaker called "Sibiraykov", which started the Great northern way on the Arctic ocean. The Sibiryakovs from generation to generation were writing the chronicles of Irkutsk.
Kuznezov Efimii Andreevich (1783-1850) – an honorable citizen, Irkutsk merchant of the first guild, state councilor, cavalier of such awards as St. Anna of the 3d degree and St. Vladimir of the 3d degree, distinguished goldmanufacture, millionaire. He was the city head from 1826 to 1829. E.A.Kuznezov was noted for his wide charity, he donated more than 5 millions rubles on various needs of the city. On his funds civil hospital – 135000 r., the Maiden institute – 100000 r., School for the maidens of a spiritual rank – 150000 r. were constructed. About 3 millions rubles were donated by him on the development of the Amur river, 750000 rubles on needs of civil and spiritual departments. E.F.Kuznezov was registered as a active member of the Kafedralnyi cathedral. In 1849 he made the will, according to which 250000 r. were endowed on the construction of a new Kafedralnyi cathedral in Irkutsk.
Trapeznikov Konstantin Petrovich - merchant, honorable citizen who was the head of Irkutsk society. He was a pioneer on the development of golden deposits in the Olekminskii district and he created new conditions for conducting gold-mining business, what brought a lot of benefits to the state, as well as to the industry and trade. In 1865 he opened a trade of iron and its products. He donated the capital in 19636 r. to establish Siropitatelinoi-craft school.
Medvednikov Ivan Logginovich (1807-1889 ) - Irkutsk merchant of the1-st guild, commerce adviser, honorable citizen of city, patron of the arts. According to the will and in memory of the mother Elizavet Mihailovna Medvednokova together with the brother Loggin Logginovich he opened the Siropitatelnii house in Irkutsk in 1838. It was destined for education of the girls from poor categories of population and orphans. Foster children were kept there until 16 years old, they were trained to the letter, needlework and home facilities. It existed at the expense of the incomes of the bank, founded at it. Having put a beginning to the school training of the girls in Irkutsk and in general in Eastern Siberia, the Siropitatelnii house of Elizabeth Medvednikova took an outstanding place in history of regional education.
Basnin Vasilii Nokolaevich (1798-1876) - Irkutsk merchant of the 1-st guild, hereditary honorable citizen of city. He was born in a family of rich Kyakhta merchant. Up to his 12-year's age he studied in a school, then he was engaged in commerce. Continuing business of the father, he concentrated all commercial interests on the Kyahtinskoi trade with China. Change of market condition and trade conditions resulted in a gradual ruin of the firm in the 1840s. After the death of the father in 1840 Vasillii Nikolaevich got 300000 r. of the inheritance, the firm of Basninyh stopped its trade in Kyahta and Nizhni Novgorod, and he moved to Irkutsk. He possessed gold mines in the Leno-Vitimskii and in Olekminskii mountain districts. He was one of the advanced people of the time, distinguished by stability of his belief, honesty, respect of science (valid member of Russian Geographical society) and art, possessing a refined taste. In the 1840s in Irkutsk nobody had such complete collection of books of Russian and foreign writers, literature and history books, as Vasilii Nikolaevich had. He had an extensive collection of engravings of the1-st half of the XIX century. He took a great interest not only in painting, music, theatre, but also in gardening. A garden cultivated by his father, he transformed into an exemplary gardening. In greenhouses apples, pear, plums, peaches, oranges, grapes grew. He collected rare plants of the world, which he wrote out from China, Japan, Australia. Basnin was a director and honorable member of the Siropitatelnii house of Elizabeth Medvednikova, which maintenance he supported financially. Being the city head, he was known for his validity, especially on business of trusteeship and therefore he was not convenient to many. In 1856 he moved to Moscow. He gave the garden and greenhouse to a researcher I.S.Selskii; a part of the library was presented to the Irkutsk spiritual seminary. In Moscow he was known as one of the organizers and active members of the Aid Society to the Siberian schoolchildren.
Demidov Dmitrii Dmitrievich (? -1888) – the city head in 1877-1885 - one of famous merchants of Irkutsk in the 70s of the ХIХ. He had gold mines, was engaged in wine trade. He left after himself the capital in 17 millions rubles, 100000 rubles were bequeathed on distribution to poor citizens. During his management the greatest number of schools in Irkutsk was open. For rendering assistance in delivery to their home of lost members of the American polar expedition of Delong (1882) D.D.Demidov received a gratitude from the USA government.
Invaluable role in development of the city was played by Vladimir Platonovich Sukachev (1849-1920) – a large public figure of Siberia, organizer of the picture gallery, patron of the arts. During his stay in the post of the city head Irkutsk was significantly furnished. Through the Angara river a constant pontoon-bridge was constructed, some hospitals and a new building of the Duma were constructed, a number of schools was opened, financed by Sukachev. According to his initiative the competition of the best project of a building of the city theatre was announced, and he was one of first who contributed 10200 rubles on its construction. Despite the large charge, he combined the duties of the city head with a post of the chairman of the Eastern-Siberian department of Russian geographical society (ESRGS). Sukachev participated in financing the expedition of G.N.Potanin to China, Tibet and Mongolia; besides he organized active publishing activities of ESRGS, contributing his personal funds for the publication of the scientific work about Eastern Siberia.
In 1882 in his manor on the Kukuevskoi mountain Vladimir Platonovich placed the picture gallery, and in 1883 a free-of-charge 4-class school for the girls was open here. Thus, the Sukachev's manor became the center of aesthetic children education. The concerts of school chorus, the Christmas and Easter feasts, colorful New Year concerts, mass city amusements were arranged here; Sukachev distributed gifts to children. At the end of 1898 Sukachev with family moved to St. Petersburg, but in the capital he didn't forget his native city. On his own funds he published a book "The First century of Irkutsk ", open letters with sites of Irkutsk and the lake Baikal. From 1905 to 1914 his magazine "Siberian questions" was published. The money from publishing activities were destined to the benefit of the Aid Society to the Siberian trainees in St.-Petersburg. The picture gallery was handed by V.P. Sukachev to the city. In the Soviet years on its base the Irkutsk regional art museum was opened.
Irkutsk merchant G.I.Shelihov, whom Derzavin called "Russian Columb", and А.А.Baranov were in the late XVIII century first-pioneers and founders of Russian America who dominated over Alaska and the Aleutian islands not only commercially, but also politically. The expeditions of the Irkutsk general - governor duke Muraviev in the 1850s, which resulted in the joining of the Amur area to Russia, was financed basically by local gold-manufactures. Numerous in the past scientific expeditions to the Far North and East, to Mongolia, China and Japan would not be managed without help of the Irkutsk richmen - from here, from Irkutsk, where since 1851 the Siberian (then Eastern-Siberian) department of a Geographical society, actively worked. It was the city where all research of extensive and poorly studied eastern areas was directed and organized.
The Irkutsk merchants, were constant enemies of governmental bureaucracy, they were aquatinted both with Decembrists, and with the Polish exiled, they were their true friends and gave them their children to be taught, considering it to be an honor for themselves. Many of them were people widely and versatile educated, they wrote out from Moscow and St. Petersburg the best magazines and books not only for themselves, but also for public libraries.
With all their heart the merchants loved the native city and served it truly.

Crow Holdings sells stake in huge industrial building portfolio
Sale to Allianz Real Estate includes 11 Grand Prairie buildings.
The Wildlife Commerce Center in Grand Prairie includes 11 industrial buildings.(Crow Holdings)
3:41 PM on Dec 3, 2020 CST
Dallas-based investor and developer Crow Holdings has sold a 49% share in more than a dozen industrial buildings to Allianz Real Estate.
The deal includes more than 6 million square feet of buildings in Chicago, Dallas, Houston and Southern California.
The largest portion of the transaction is Crow Holdings' 11-building, 3.8 million-square-foot Wildlife Commerce Park in Grand Prairie. The 220-acre business park is on South Belt Line Road north of Interstate 30.
The buildings included in the sale to Allianz were developed by Crow Holdings starting in 2014.
"By analyzing tenant demand patterns in major U.S. logistics hubs, Crow Holdings successfully assembled and developed this long-term, build-to-core portfolio of high-quality industrial properties," Michael Levy, chief executive of Crow Holdings, said in a statement. "We continue to build upon our strategy of establishing trusted partnerships with premier institutions to capitalize on the long-term secular growth of e-commerce.
"We are excited to partner with Allianz Real Estate, a top-tier global investor that shares our confidence in the U.S. industrial real estate sector, on this venture," he said. "As a longstanding partner to Crow Holdings, we look forward to continuing to work with them to optimize these assets, which benefit from the major tailwinds of increasing logistics demand."
Crow Holdings and Allianz plan to own the buildings for the long term.
Crow Holdings is one of the largest industrial developers in North Texas. It has 39 projects with 78 million square feet of industrial space under construction nationwide.
"Partnering with Crow Holdings — a trusted partner for several years on both the debt and equity side — allows us to grow alongside a developer that understands the dynamics and needs of the U.S. market," said Christoph Donner, CEO of Allianz Real Estate of America. "Allianz remains focused on long-term opportunities, making this investment an excellent fit for our portfolio.
"Crow Holdings' decades of experience and track record give us the confidence to further expand our joint platform," Donner said.
Dallas' Crow Holdings makes $425 million industrial deal
By Steve Brown and Dom DiFurio
It's the second big industrial building sale for Crow Holdings since the start of the pandemic.
This summer, Crow Holdings sold 15 warehouse and distribution buildings to PGIM Real Estate in a deal valued at $425 million. The 4.7 million-square-foot sale included buildings in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Denver, Atlanta and Phoenix.
Dallas-Fort Worth is the largest industrial building market in the country in terms of leasing and construction. Almost 25 million square feet of additional warehouse space is under construction.
Industrial buildings have been in hot demand this year because of increasing distribution operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Investors have gobbled up billions of dollars of warehouse buildings around the country.

Are there any difference in benefits for the Green card vs your old card ?
Not that I can see, and the only thing mentioned by the rep was that there was some sort of extra security in the new magnetic stripe. Other than that, it's the same Discover card.
I don't know if they are sending these to everyone, or just to those of us who don't tend to use this card. I will keep an eye out to see if DH gets one as well, but he uses his a bit more than I do.

The film covers the latest self-driving developments in Silicon Valley, but also provides insights from those who are less sanguine about the automated future. Best of all, Horwitz traces the evolution of the current technologies to their origins in the 1970s and 80s. Autonomous cars have been around a lot longer than you think…
Dan Costa: That's a really good point, too. Because I think people are thinking about Google, Uber and Carnegie Mellon and the DARPA challenge. But past that, I don't think there's a lot of understanding of the history.

The National Conference and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) today joined forces to take on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's claim that the two regional parties had ruined three generations of Jammu and Kashmir, pointing out that the ruling BJP had joined forces with both on several instances in the past. I am on a mission to end poverty in the country, finish terrorism, act against corruption and black money.
"I've seen a powerful wave in favour of the BJP. according to opinion polls and surveys, the BJP will get thrice the seats that the Congress will win", he said while campaigning for minister of state in PMO Jitendra Singh, who is seeking re-election from Udhampur.
He added that the Union government is working on a plan to create a defence corridor in India, and Uttar Pradesh will benefit from this plan because it will generate employment.
India's finance minister said on Monday fast economic growth and rapid urbanization would slash the number of people in extreme poverty by 2021 and end it completely in the decade after that.
"SP and BSP have not understood the mood of the people. But the parties do not want to recognize the truth". "The Congress ignored their plight because of vote bank politics", the PM said.
India has long accused Pakistan of supporting militants in Kashmir, a charge its neighbour denies.
"The second big mistake the terrorists made was in Pulwama after which we killed them in their home through air strikes", Modi added, referring to the air strike on a terrorist camp in Pakistan's Balakot after a February 14 suicide bombing in Kashmir killed 40 troopers of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). "Why did the Congress get impatient after listening about the surgical and air strikes? Every Indian is proud of its security forces for the strikes", he said.
The PM said that wrong policies of the Congress led to the mass exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in 1989. Why do they choose power over Article 370 then? We are using the power of the Armed Forces to secure the nation.
"I want to make it clear to these separatist supporters that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India and will remain so".
Accusing the Abdullahs and Muftis of destroying lives of three generations of J-K, the PM said that even if they "bring their entire clan into field and abuse him, they won't be able to divide this nation".
