DMX Hated the Industry … and it Hated Him Right Back
VC E-Book Download
The rapper DMX was a vocal critic of the music industry and constantly warned people of its shady ways. From the looks of it, DMX paid dearly for his transgressions.
Vigilant Citizen
DMX was a rare figure in popular culture. Despite his enormous success (over 74 million albums sold), the rapper became a vocal critic of the music industry and grew to hate everything about it.
DMX was also vocal about another aspect of his life: His Christian faith.
So when I learned that DMX was hospitalized on Good Friday (after a Holy Week that was characterized by satanic industry madness), I was troubled by the irony of the situation. While I was rooting for him to "come back from the dead" on Easter Sunday, DMX sadly passed away on April 9th, at 50 years old.
Immediately after his hospitalization, the celebrity gossip site TMZ reported that DMX suffered a heart attack due to an overdose. However, this report was not confirmed by people close to him and the autopsy report is not yet available.
Citing other sources, the other gossip site MediaTakeOut tells a different story:
In an EXCLUSIVE interview, MTO News spoke with DMX' family member who told us that the rapper received the COVID vaccine about a week before he suffered from the heart attack.
DMX's family member told MTO News, "[DMX] got the vaccine when they opened it up to people over 50. He got it so that he could go travel and perform, stuff like that."
New York State opened up the COVID-19 vaccinations for people over the age of 50 in mid March.
And the family member suspects that DMX heart attack could have been a reaction to the vaccine. The family member explained, "Everyone [in the news] keeps saying that [DMX] had a drug overdose. How do they know? I'm in the family and no doctor told me anything about an overdose."
The family member is FURIOUS about the speculation surrounding DMX drug use. She told MTO News, "Yes he had past issues with drugs. But nobody knows that he had an OD. It's f**cked up that it's being reported like that."
She told MTO News that she – and the family – are considering taking legal action against news publications prematurely concluding that DMX suffered a drug overdose.
But what is clear – according to the family member – is that DMX did take the Covid vaccine.
The grieving kin explained, "He took that vaccine, and he had a heart attack. I'm not saying the vaccine did it, but he never had a heart attack before."
These claims are to be taken with a grain of salt as MTONews is known for publishing questionable articles.
No matter what the case maybe be, DMX's life was one of thrilling highs and terrifying lows. Through it all, it was characterized by never-ending fights and struggles against his past, his demons, his addictions, his own family, the media, the legal system, the music industry, and, in his words, Satan himself.
Here's a look at his life.
DMX's childhood was filled with traumatic events that probably shaped his behavior for the rest of his life.
Simmons went through a disjointed childhood that included being beaten by his mother and her various boyfriends so badly that he lost teeth and sustained numerous bruises and cuts on his face. Due to poverty, he slept on the floor with roaches and mice crawling over him in the night. When Simmons was five years old, his family settled into the School Street Projects in Yonkers, New York.When he was six years old, his mother knocked out two of his teeth with a broom after he innocently erased something in her notebook. At school, he threw chairs at teachers and stabbed a kid in the face with a pencil. When he was seven, an aunt got him drunk on vodka. The same year, he was jailed for stealing cakes from a market.
One summer, his mother locked him in his bedroom, allowing him to only exit for trips to the bathroom. At the end of the fifth grade, at age 10, Simmons was expelled from school and sent to the Julia Dyckman Andrus Children's Home for 18 months. In what he described as a defining moment of betrayal, his mother tricked him by telling him they were just visiting the home, then she enrolled him there. A few months later, he was arrested for arson in an attempt to burn the school down. He nearly killed his co-conspirator.
When he was 14, Simmons began living on the streets of Yonkers to escape his mother's abuse, sleeping in Salvation Army clothing bins and befriending stray dogs.
– Wikipedia, DMX
report this adDMX's love for rap music helped him go through his life's numerous hurdles and his talent allowed him to gain respect and recognition. After several years if hard work, he got signed with Def Jam Records and, in 1998, took the rap world by storm with his first album It's Dark and Hell is Hot.
Blood In, Blood Out
While becoming a big rap star was the ticket out of poverty, DMX immediately understood that there was a price to pay for it. His first album contained an important spiritual component which was expressed as conversations with God and the devil.
For instance, the song Damien is about DMX speaking with what appears to be a guardian angel. But he is gravely mistaken. The song begins like this:
Why is it every move I make turns out to be a bad one?
Where's my guardian angel? Need one, wish I had one
Damien answers:
I'm right here, shorty, and I'ma hold you down
You tryin' to f**k all these b****s? I'ma show you how
But who…? Name's D like you, but my friends call me Damien
And I'ma put you hip to somethin' about this game we in
You and me could take it there, and you'll be
The hottest n***a ever livin', that's a given? You'll see
Since the release of the 1976 movie The Omen, the name Damien became associated with the son of Satan and the antichrist. In the song, Damien pretends he's DMX's guardian angel who can make his dreams of money, success, and women come true. However, Damien quickly asks a return for his favor:
I'm about to have you drivin', probably a Benz
But we gotta stay friends, blood out, blood in
The expression "blood in, blood ou" refers to the initiation ritual of having to kill someone to enter a gang and, on the reverse end, not being able to leave the gang unless killed. In the song, it is used in the context of a deal with the music industry and, by extent, the devil himself.
At the end of the song, Damien asks DMX to kill one of his own friends – a ritual sacrifice to prove his loyalty. When DMX argues, Damien says:
Either do it or give me your right hand, that's what you said
To which DMX replies:
I see now ain't nothin' but trouble ahead
That last line unfortunately foreshadows the events that will define the rest of his life.
Although DMX went on to become one of the only artists ever to debut five albums at #1, he grew disgusted by the ways of the music industry. And that disgust was perfectly articulated in his 2007 Def Poetry Jam performance.
During that same period, DMX felt that his work and his life needed to take a different direction. And he felt the need to be much more vocal about his faith. That desire was exemplified by his single Lord Give Me a Sign. This is the first verse:
In the name of Jesus (Spread the word!)
"No weapon formed against me shall prosper" (Preach!)
"And every tongue that rises against me in judgment, thou shall condemn" (Preach!)
(Lord give me a sign!) "For this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord"
(Preach!) "And their righteousness is of me, " said the Lord (Preach!)
Amen, uh
Lord give me a sign!
I really need talk to you Lord
Since the last time we talked, the walk has been hard
Now I know you haven't left me, but I feel like I'm alone
I'ma big boy now, but I'm still not grown
And I'm still goin' through it (What!), pain and the hurt (Yeah!)
Soakin' up trouble like, rain in the dirt (Yeah!)
And I know, only I can stop the rain
With just the mention of my savior's name, in the name of Jesus
Devil I rebuke you, for what I go through
Been tryna make me do, what I used to (What!)
But all that stops right here (Yeah!)
As long as the Lord's in my life, I will have no fear
I will know no pain, from the light to the dark (Come on!)
I will no show no shame, spit it right from the heart (Come on!)
'Cause it's right from the start, you held me down
And ain't, nothin' they can tell me now
DMX also planned to use his unique oratory skills to become a pastor. He never missed an occasion to share prayers with whoever wanted to listen.
While DMX was always a devout Christian, he was the first to admit that he was not a saint. He did stupid things, he had his shortcomings and he had serious personal issues.
In the latter part of his career, the industry he hated focused on exploiting these issues for cynical purposes.
Mass Media Humiliation
Some celebrities are built up by mass media. Others are torn down. During the last years of his life, DMX was definitely torn down. On several occasions, DMX argued that he being unfairly targeted in attempts to destroy him.
In a jarring example, TMZ cameras were actually waiting for DMX in a courtroom prior to his hearing. Seeing this bizarre ambush, DMX became agitated as he was convinced that TMZ was tipped off of his arrest and allowed to enter the courtroom, turning his hearing into a humiliating spectacle.
At the end of the video, DMX looks at the camera and says:
"Every time they do it to me."
TMZ was also present with cameras while he was sentenced to six months in jail for violating his probation.
I bet TMZ loved capturing DMX's reaction when he learned that he was going to jail.
During an interview while he was incarcerated in Arizona, DMX claimed that he was targeted by local authorities to get him arrested. He also wondered why he was on lock 23 hours a day.
When the interviewer asks him how someone this rich and successful could end up in jail, DMX answers:
"I think everyone who's watching knows how I ended up in here. I'm pretty sure they do."
The interview ends with DMX saying:
"Pray for me as I pray for you. Don't believe everything you hear, don't believe everything you read, and only believe half of what you see. God bless you".
The least one can say is that DMX's life was characterized by its fair share of struggles and hardships which began at a very young age. These problems were only exacerbated by DMX's addictions which caused him to act in an erratic and irrational matter. However, miraculously, DMX managed to go from homelessness to owning luxurious homes, from talking to stray dogs to speaking to thousands of adoring fans.
Despite all the amazing things that were happening to him, DMX's spiritual side caused him to quickly understand that something was dark and devilish about the music industry. In an effort to escape it, he sought refuge in his faith while attempting to touch people in a positive manner. He also never missed an occasion to spit on the industry and insult everyone inside of it. As he often stated, DMX was not an industry artist, he was an artist in an industry.
And, apparently, the industry hated him back. The last years of his life were a long, humiliating way of the cross that only fueled his torment. And that way of the cross ended … on Good Friday.

When drafting a prenuptial (before marriage) or marital agreement (after marriage), it is vital to have the advice and assistance of an experienced lawyer if the agreement is going to address assets located outside the United States, or if a couple wishes for the agreement to be enforceable both in Texas and in a foreign country.
This is a highly complex area of the law that requires expertise in Texas law and the law of the foreign jurisdiction at issue. Some foreign jurisdictions do not recognize or allow prenuptial or marital agreements. Other jurisdictions require certain formalities that are not required under Texas law.
Texas allows election of law clauses and is likely to enforce prenuptial agreements and marital agreements signed in foreign countries with or without election of law clauses. It is not uncommon for Texas lawyers to have little if any experience with enforcing or challenging foreign prenuptial agreements and/or marital agreements. These agreements are often not in English, and are statutory in nature. If you have entered into a prenuptial agreement or marital agreement in another country, it is imperative that you retain counsel who is experienced when it comes to the enforcement of these agreements in Texas.
If it is your intent to enter into an agreement in Texas that is enforceable in a foreign jurisdiction, it is also important that you retain counsel who has the experience and resources necessary to draft such agreements.
The experienced legal team at Laura Dale & Associates, P.C., will carefully draft or review your agreement and will marshal the resources necessary to assure that you maximize the likelihood that your agreement will be enforceable in more than one jurisdiction.
When you need a family law attorney to draft or review these sophisticated property agreements for you, contact Laura Dale & Associates, P.C. Schedule an initial consultation with our Houston office.

October 2, 2018 - Kyle Wiggers of VentureBeat writes: Companies spend a good chunk of change on advertising. In fact, according to Gartner, marketing budgets gobble up about 12 percent of annual revenue (and as much as 18.5 percent in industries like education). But a hair over two-thirds of them — 71 percent — allocate the bulk of their budgets to generic marketing messages. Worse still, only 50 cents of every ad dollar spent makes it to the desired target audience.
To inject campaigns with a bit of personality, IBM recruited the help of artificial intelligence (AI). The Armonk, New York-based company today unveiled three new marketing solutions under its Watson umbrella: IBM Watson Ads Omni, IBM Media Optimizer, and Predictive Audiences.
The announcement coincides with Advertising Week in New York City, which kicked off Monday.

Math Game Prototyping Project
Digital game forms are increasingly used in educational contexts, and the potential of digital games to create significant learning impact is a huge growth area internationally. This project seeks to broker relationships in building game-driven learning tools to support math curricula in a network of interest across academic and private sector partners. As an approach for design research the design and development of games is recognized as offering a constructionist approach to creating new models for learning.
The objectives of this project are to formalize an existing relationship into a more closely framed collaboration and grant submission between project partners. The Math Games Project supports the start of an ongoing and larger research project. In interdisciplinary design teams, the students from OCAD U's Game Design class were presented with the challenge of conceiving and developing a complete growth plan for virtual math games. The games would be built for mobile consoles (iPhone, Java-based phones) and for young students. The games considered the growing presence of technology in the educational environment and the potential to foster young students' positive reception of math.
Project partners have committed resources in kind to this project e.g. JumpMath to provide subject expertise, content and context and pedagogic and cognitive expertise coming from The Hospital for Sick Kids (see below).
Build on existing expertise at OCAD for development of games and of mobile applications (iPhone, Java-based phones) through the collaboration between GamePlay Lab (Westecott)and Mobile Lab (Davila) at OCAD
Collaborate with University of Waterloo in researching user interaction with various game platforms, game play, and/or theming.
Engage broader base of partners in detailed scoping exercise.
The creation of an online resource of both relevant research and design material to seed future projects
Prototypes developed will be introduced to various elementary school classes.
Foster a working relationship with industry partners.
Feedback from the classes will be tracked by the Human Factors researchers at University of Waterloo.
Engage existing OCAD students in design process.
Background & Context
This funding will help the OCAD team collaborate and contribute to an interactive math pedagogy research initiative being developed with JumpMath (John Mighton).
This initiative seeks to find ways of creating engaging courses for students struggling with math in elementary school, high school and college as well as users outside of an educational context who wish to improve math skills. It involves a two-pronged approach that will translate existing curriculum, exercises, and workbooks developed by JumpMath as well as create new game modules that further a student's math learning outside of class time.
The project received early funding from the Corus Seed Grant, and will seek for continued funding from a variety of sources including SSHRC, NSERC and OCE.

Feminists in Games (FIG)
Feminists in Games (FiG) is a SSHRC-funded network development grant in partnership with Dr Jennifer Jenson at York University. The purpose of the project is to gather an international research association of digital media researchers to better understand the origins and consequences of the gendered digital divide and intervene in its reproduction.
OCAD University Graduate Researcher Madeline Ashby is funded to produce research for distribution by FiG. For Great Justice is a manual for feminist activism in the video game culture, community, and industry. It chronicles and examines successful strategies for activism, including examples from Occupy Wall Street, the Riot Grrls, Pussy Riot, and others. It models these movements and highlights the most effective traits of each. It then advises on strategies for activism and agency within online gaming communities and corporate video game development environments. With these strategies in place, individuals and communities can work more effectively for gender justice at work, at home, and at play.
FiG has funded 5 proposals for projects to receive incubator funding listed at http://www.ludicjunk.com/fig/ and Emma Westecott from OCADU will mentor the PsXXY¥borg (pronounced "cyborg") project with game artist Hannah Epstein.
Materials and publications reviewed and created over the course of this project will be collected in the library of a group on the academic social bookmarking service zotero.
Reflections on research will be gathered on Tumblr for easy access, populated with links of interest and lengthier reflections on the design of compelling information interfaces.

DIGITAL ECONOMY TRADING ZONES (DETZ)
This SSHRC Partnership Development Grant examines novel forms of cross-disciplinary and cross-sector partnerships necessary for creating world class academic research on digital media. It also intends to provide novel insight for private industry and for commercialization, as well as new venues for the innovative work of artistic and cultural organizations. This research partnership develops a digital economy trading zone that connects the diverse interests, knowledge and values from a diverse set of partners. Its focus is on a developing aspect of digital media, namely, the increasing materialization of digital media and the related interweaving of physical and virtual modes of engagement. The project therefore brings together working groups in order to develop concrete projects that provide value to each of these groups. The three groups include members from academic institutions, cultural organizations, and private SMEs, and are organized around the following inter-related themes; Space, Play, and the Self.
The grant includes as co-applicants, Professor Sara Grimes from the Faculty of Information, Professor Megan Boler from OISE, and Professor Mary-Lou Lobsinger from the Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design at the University of Toronto, as well as Professors Kate Hartmanand Professor Emma Westecott from OCAD University, and Professor Jason Nolan from Ryerson University. The project runs for three years and primarily provides salaries and stipends for masters and PhD students.
IOT Theme # 2 - Play
In this working group, we will explore how digital games and other play technologies enable multi- modal practices that traverse and integrate the virtual and the material in a variety of ways. Examples of this include the production of tangible "ludic artifacts" (Tolino, 2009), the interplay of situated and digital practices within mobile gaming, the phenomenon of alternate reality games (ARG), and the incorporation of physical motion within kinetic game systems (such as Wii Sports). With the rise and spread of pervasive gaming and portable devices, digital play becomes resituated as a transitory, in- between and oftentimes liminal activity, as play is reintroduced into a broader range of the spaces and activities of everyday life. Our academic team includes Sara Grimes, an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Information who has published extensively on the political economy of games and game play, Associate Professor Jason Nolan who runs the EDGE gaming lab at Ryerson University, and collaborator Emma Westcott, an assistant professor at OCAD. Game developers Play Dynamics Inc. and HugeMonster are our private partners.

2013 Common Pulse Symposium
Looking at Art and Disability Differently Disability gives us unique voices and diverse perspectives, the very core of what we expect art to bring to our lives, challenging us, individually and collectively, to expand the way we think about the world and the people we share it with. Disability creates a range of often enriching experiences from which artists make work that is interesting, meaningful, and important and that leads to new insights for both the artist and the viewer. Hearing, seeing and understanding the viewpoint of others is how we grow as individuals and how we progress as a society.
Throughout September 2013, artists working a variety of media will be visiting, performing and exhibiting in Durham as part of the Common Pulse Intersecting Abilities Festival. The festival is celebrating the connections between art and ability and examines alternative approaches to understanding perception and cognition in the practice of artists, particularly artists who address diverse and different abilities and their related experiences.
Hosted by the Durham Art Gallery and organized in collaboration with OCAD University, Common Pulse brings together artists, community groups, researchers and activists to celebrate inclusiveness, accessibility, cultural diversity and artistic excellence.
Artists and Researchers Discuss Art and Disability
The coupling of disability art with emerging research practices allows for a comparison of the values of embodied experience in academic and studio-based activities and a new formulation of their intersection. The hybrid work being done by practitioners, both artists and researchers, describes a further shift away from the centre towards inclusive and experiential processes and results. Methodologies are likewise being expanded that transform the functions of research in ways that makes it more responsive to the complexities of the subject: This fusion of research and creation is evident in the work being done in the fields of art production, Disability Studies and Disability Art and Culture by all of the participants invited to this symposium. Their contributions to the dialogue will address the applicability of a research/creation model in the ongoing effort to bring more light and understanding to our evolving conception of disability and the contributions that disability culture brings to society generally.

Common Pulse Symposium 2011
A partnership between OCAD University and the Durham Art Gallery, COMMON PULSE created a forum for presentations and discussion during a three-day symposium. Twelve artists and curators were invited to present their experience creating work in the context of university research. These presentations sparked a dialogue among all of the participants which examined current developments in digital media production and consumption within contemporary art practice and how they predict, reflect or refute parallel media phenomena within North American culture in general. We looked at societal shifts in authorship brought about by file-sharing, sampling and the open source movement, as well as collaborative initiatives sparked by mobile media such as citizen journalism, wiki culture and flash mobs. In each model of research-informed, digital media art practice, the flow back and forth between analysis and production is strongest and most focused in the artist-led research labs of the symposium contributors

Fetal Alcohol Visualizing
Working with large sets of intricate and comprehensive data, this research takes a highly interdisciplinary approach to dissecting the discourses that surround fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD). Novel correlations across data collected from stakeholder groups, derived using advanced visual analytics tools, help to better inform new strategies for communicating FASD. The interdisciplinary approach to this project grants the researchers with the ability to employ creative methods of study; the design of striking infographics and innovative simulation technologies will serve the production of provocative public performance in an effort to refresh the dialogue on FASD.

Art and Ability: Cardinal
This project begins to examine the special physical needs of individuals with complex disabilities through the lens of their artistic and expressive needs. It proposes to develop and incorporate an art/research methodology, including stages of creation and analysis of prototypical tools to address these overlapping needs of the participants. It is anticipated that these newly developed tools will have potential benefits for a broader spectrum of the user's needs, as well as for other users with or without disabilities. This iterative inquiry will take the form of collaborative art creation sessions involving both researcher/artists and participant/artists with severe physical disabilities. Analysis of the impediments to these exercises in self expression will guide the rapid development of new, prototypical, art making tools, techniques or materials. At the conclusion of the research, we will examine the effectiveness of the art/research methodology in refining and addressing the emerging research question of how communication models can be developed and employed for artistic expression by individuals with disabilities, and how they can be applied to their other communication needs.
Cardinal: Eye Gesture Screenless Communication System
Several observations of current eye-gaze and eye-gesture systems point towards the potential benefits of a low strain,computer-assisted, natural tool for users with eye control as their primary means of communicating.
The three existing systems include early Bliss boards, myTobii computers and the Eye Writer. These are the salient features of each:
The Bliss board was a physical tool that allowed a trained user to communicate with a trained "listener" through eye gestures. A 2-3 foot square sheet of clear Plexiglas had the centre cut out, leaving a frame about 6 inches wide. The two conversants would face each other. The square grid around the frame contained cells with a square grid of alphabetic characters. I.e. the top left cell might contain the letters A, B, C, D, E, F, arranged in a grid. The user would use a two-gesture glance to instruct the listener about the letter choice. Up and to the right, followed by up and to the left might combine to signify the upper right letter in the upper left square.
Two features stand out with this system. First, the goal of communicating with a listener is enhanced by having the face-to-face view of the conversants uninterrupted. I.e. they look at each other through the large hole in the centre of the board and glance to the edges of their field of gaze to signal alphabetic letters. Second, once both users have become accustomed to the system, the board itself can be removed and the pattern of eye gestures can still be interpreted.
In its early usage, the communicator is might look at the squares in question, but later they just gesture towards the squares, whether they are physically there or not. This sparks a differentiation between eye-gaze (looking) and eye-gesture (glancing).
The myTobii uses infrared cameras to track the communicators gaze, and maps it to a flexible set of on-screen buttons. The camera and motion tracking software create a very workable tool. Unfortunately the computer screen must constantly be the focus of the communicators gaze, and effectively becomes a barrier between the conversants. In theory, the cameras could track eye gestures that go beyond the edges of the screen. A "pause" feature used to be activated by glancing down beyond the bottom edge of the screen, although that feature seems to be gone.
The Eye Writer glasses uses an eye tracking system that is not linked to a particular on-screen representation. In its fist instantiation it was used with an onscreen software program to facilitate graffiti tagging, but the glasses themselves (the input device) are not linked to any screen, the way the myTobii is.
The synthesis of these systems suggests a model in which a user could use their eyes to gesture towards abstract referents – hypothetical buttons which exist outside of the field of attention. So a user might look at a conversation partner and then glance left and right, which would be interpreted by a computer vision system as the letter D. Right and left might be O. Up and left might be G. But because the communicator never attends to an onscreen representation, they are able to assess the impact of what they are saying, word by word, as we do in normal speech. Rather than having to type out an entire phrase (while ignoring the conversation partner) and then playing it back, with a highly intermediated effect.
In the first test, the object of attention (a Google map) is situated in the middle of the screen, where the user can study it at will without triggering any buttons (which would be the case with the myTobii system). Glancing towards any edge causes the map to scroll in that direction. Glances are triggered by a "mouse-over" effect, which does not require the user to look at, pause on, or otherwise fixate on a button. A simple glance suffices.
A subsequent instantiation will allow the user to wear EyeWriter glasses and look at a physical symbol board to spell words. After rudimentary training, we will test if the user can continue to spell by glancing with their eyes, without the presence of the board.
Further open source software and hardware models will explore if there is a sub-$100 device which could be produced to facilitate communication (and control) without the presence of a computer screen.

Art and Interactive Projections: ScreenPlay
ScrrenPlay was developed by Professor Elaine Biddiss, core faculty in the Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering (IBBME) and Scientist at the Bloorview Research Institute, together with a group of design students from OCAD University led by Professor Geoffrey Shea. The installation consists of a pressure-sensitive floor comprised of 100 tiles. Calibrated from the microcontroller switches in the tiles, information is fed to a computer which then applies corresponding images to a glass wall from a ceiling-mounted projector. Anyone standing or sitting on the tiles can create elaborate, moving landscapes from the three rotating design motifs: flowers and bubbles, a forest blooming from a geometric grid, and abstract vines and patterns.

Body Editing
Body Editing is a gesture and biosensor platform that returns feedback (in the form of music, sound and visuals) to users. Users can move, gesture or provide biometric data, for example, to paint a picture, form a fractal, create a sound scape or musical composition. It explores the relationship between the experience of movement, of biodata, and the generative production of data aesthetics. In this installation, users are tracked in the installation space, and as well, passersby are captured by a motion capture camera to contribute to the feedback; together they create a layered data visualization experience.

Preston ist eine Ortschaft im Nordosten der schottischen Council Area Scottish Borders beziehungsweise in der traditionellen Grafschaft Berwickshire. Sie liegt rund drei Kilometer nördlich von Duns am linken Ufer des Whiteadder Water.

Geschichte
Bereits im 12. Jahrhundert ist ein Kirchengebäude am Standort verzeichnet. Die im Laufe der Jahrhunderte mehrfach überarbeitete Kirche wurde mit der Zusammenlegung zweier Kirchengemeinden im Jahre 1718 obsolet.

Im Jahre 1602 wurde Preston für den Earl of Angus in den Stand eines Burgh of Barony versetzt. Von dem hiermit verbundenen Marktrecht zeugt noch heute ein Marktkreuz.

Vermutlich um 1780 ließ Francis Wemyss Charteris, 7. Earl of Wemyss ein Schloss namens The Retreat nahe Preston erbauen. Es diente vornehmlich als Jagdschloss, wurde jedoch auch zeitweise als Landsitz genutzt.

Verkehr
In einer dünnbesiedelten Region der Scottish Borders gelegen, ist Preston nur schlecht an das Straßennetz angebunden. Die A6112, die Coldstream mit Grantshouse verbindet, bildet die Hauptverkehrsstraße Prestons. In Duns ist außerdem die A6105 zugänglich.

Psychic Hearts is the debut solo studio album by former Sonic Youth member Thurston Moore released in 1995 through Geffen Records.  The album has been remastered "for goodness" and reissued in 2006. The two-record vinyl version of the reissue contains bonus tracks on the fourth album side where on the original vinyl release the fourth side had a drawing by cover artist Rita Ackermann etched directly into the vinyl.

The album makes reference to Yoko Ono and Patti Smith. Sonic Youth have made many Patti Smith references and tributes throughout their career.

Reviews

When Psychic Hearts was re-released in 2006, it was praised by critic Brandon Stosuy of Pitchfork Media:

Released after Experimental Jet Set Trash and No Star and joined by Steve Shelley on drums and Tim Foljahn on second guitar, Moore's femme-themed solo debut, Psychic Hearts, is a collection of often-beautiful sunset guitar rock. Of his vocal turns, my favorite is the caffeinated, teen-angst/dysfunction of the propulsive title track. Moore's vocals are also particularly swoon-worthy on the whispery "Pretty Bad" and breathy "Ono Soul". Most of Psychic Hearts, however, works because of the simple repetitions of instrumentals like lilting opener "Blues From Beyond the Grave" and the gently paranoid "(I Got a) Catholic Block" patterning that surfaces between Moore's voice in "Feathers". The centerpiece is the 20-minute instrumental exeunt, "Elegy for All the Dead Rock *s". The track's distinct movements mingle fluidly, swerving into a sideways cascade before bursting and blooming until notes sharpen and a final tidal wave arcs and releases. The noise implosions of its final third are anticlimactic, but after some gentle plucks and slides, Moore grabs his pick and glides into that dark night as gorgeously as he began, only this time with more triumphal drums.

Q: async function doesn't wait of inside await in nodejs I am implementing function monthlyRevenue.
Simply, it will return total monthly revenue,and it takes arguments of station array which will make revenues, month and year.
Problem
Inside of this function I have getStationPortion which will fetch the revenue portion of user's.
So I would like to make it return object like this.
stationsPortion = {station1 : 30, station2 : 20}
In the monthlyRevenue
const stationPortions = await getStationPortions(stations)
console.log("portion map", stationPortions      //it will be shown very beginning with empty

getStationPortions
const getStationPortions = async (stations) => {
  let stationPortions = {}
  stations.map(async (value) => {
    const doc = await fdb.collection('Stations').doc(value).get()
    if (!doc.exists) {
      console.log("NO DOC")

    } else {
      stationPortions[value] = doc.data().salesPortion
      console.log(stationPortions)                   //it will be shown at the last.
    }
  })
  return stationPortions
}

I thought that async function should wait for the result, but it does not.
I am kind of confusing if my understanding is wrong.
Thank you
(by the way, fdb is firebase admin(firestore)

A: Working code
const getStationPortions = async (stations) => {
  let stationPortions = {}
  await Promise.all(stations.map(async (value) => {
    const doc = await fdb.collection('Stations').doc(value).get()
    if (!doc.exists) {
      console.log("NO DOC")
    } else {
      stationPortions[value] = doc.data().salesPortion
      console.log(stationPortions)
    }
  }))
  return stationPortions
}

Ensure that the Infrared Lamps are free from dust and grease. When cleaning do not use a chemical solvent or polish as this may diminish the quality of the IR pulses causing refraction or unnecessary reflection.
Clean using a damp general purpose soft cloth ensuring that the lens remains scratch free and unblemished.
Check with the manufacturer for updated device drivers. Updated drivers may provide different driver and protocol settings along with optimisations for the transceiver.
NB: The process for changing the Lamp transceiver settings under Windows 95, 98, 98SE and Millennium differ from those provided here.
If this has not had any visible effect on the connection. Users may with to repeat the above steps testing any additional transceiver types listed. You should return the transceiver type to Auto for the next troubleshooting step.
The Windows CE Sync client should be setup to access the Infrared port. The procedure for this will differ slightly between Windows versions.
Under Windows 95, 98, 98SE and Millennium. Connections using serial infrared or integrated Infrared adapters will make use of Virtual COM (vCOM) assignment. Using vCOM, adapters will invisibly assign themselves a COM port number as part of the driver installation (usually COM5 or higher) to connect through. This will appear in both the Get Connected Window and in the Connection Settings screen as show below. If you wish to use Handheld PC Explorer to make an Infrared connection between a PC and a Windows CE 1.0 device, you must have vCOM port available, and there for be using Windows 9x.
Under Windows 2000, XP, 2003 and Vista the use of vCOM mapping has been abandoned in favour of a more dynamic resource management system. All users should ensure that they are using ActiveSync 3.5 or higher - Windows CE Services like H/PC Explorer requires a vCOM. In the dialogue below under one of these platforms, no vCOM port will be listed.
If under Windows 9x either the Infrared Port or COMx (which is assigned to the vCOM) references are missing or showing as Not Installed then either the USB Infrared Adapter has not been installed correctly or another device is attempting to make use of the IR hardware.
You should investigate and disable any Infrared hardware in the vicinity of the transceiver as well as any other communications applications that may be running on your computer.

Erie Canal Museum Exhibit, Syracuse, 2019
I have had a long-standing relationship with the Erie Canal Museum in Syracuse, NY. In 2007, I conducted HABS/HAER photography of hydroelectric facilities and dam at canal facilities throughout New York State. The purpose of this volunteer effort was to form the backbone of a major exhibit that opened at the Museum in 2008.
In late 2018 the Museum offered me the opportunity to provide the photographs for a solo exhibit. The title of the exhibit is "Engineering Beauty: Black & White Views of New York Waters." Each of the photographs has some aspect of the state's water resources such as rivers, canals, water control structures, and constructed ponds. This exhibit will be open from April 10 to September 15, 2019.
The exhibit will include eighteen of my black and white photographs, all of which I took on a large-format camera, either 4″x5″ or 8″x10″. This is a retrospective exhibit for me, as I took these photographs between 2007 and 2018. The gallery above shows the photographs that will be included in the exhibit.

The Szekely National Museum is open for public since 1875. This outstanding scientific institution has undertaken the task to carry on research activities and to present the heritage of the Szekelys and the region of Székelyföld. The year 1879 that appears on the Museum's seal represents the date when it passed into the common proprietorship of the Székely nation. At present, it represents the biggest Hungarian public collection outside Hungary and it is also one of the most important touristic attractions of Kovászna (Covasna) county and Szekelyföld. It is enlisted as a regional museum in the network of the Romanian museums and it is maintained by the Council of Kovaszna County. Its activity is also supported by the Szekely National Museum Foundation registered in the 1990's.
The complex in Sepsiszentgyörgy (Sfântu Gheorghe) designed by Karoly Kos comprises a library and departments for natural science, archeology-history and ethnography. The Art Gallery in Sepsiszentgyörgy, the external museum units in Kézdivásárhely (Tîrgu Secuiesc), Csernáton (Cernat), Barót (Baraolt) and Zabola (Zăbala) also make part of the institution.
comprises, beside the most complete collection of Pliocene and Quaternary mammal fauna in Central-Eastern Europe, the biggest mushroom collection in Romania, the butterfly collection of László Diószeghy containing more than 23 000 species and a very significant botanical collection. The department's entomologist is well known for discovering several new species.
The department's archeological collection numbers more than 50 000 items. The Museum has researched and cataloged especially the sites of Kovászna County: the painted pottery culture from the Neolithic and Bronze Age found in Erősd (Ariuşd), the Neolithic findings of the site from Lécfalva (Leţ) and the findings of the cemeteries in Zabola (Zăbala) and Petőfalva (Petea) dating from the Árpád Era. The permanent archaeological exposition presents 35 000 years of material culture belonging to this area.
The historical collection's most significant values are the military relics of the Székely orders dating from the Middle Age, relics of the Revolution from 1848 (for instance the field printing press of general Bem), the weapon collection numbering 250 pieces, as well as the significant furniture and glass collection of culture-historical value.
is famous for its unique collection in Transylvania numbering more than 15 000 pieces – among which the most significant are the noble embroidery collection dating from the 16–17th century, the glazed tiles and ceramic collections, the old carved and painted furniture, as well as the remarkable collection of traditional folk children toys. As an open-air exposition an 18th century house from the Alcsík (Lower Ciuc) region can be seen, with partially original furniture.

Lockdowns Could Reshape American Politics for a Generation, or Several – "Never before has such a globalized and comprehensive regime of closures, curfews, quarantines, travel restrictions, and surveillance been deployed for any excuse much less under the guise of virus control. A century of high-level public health practice never deployed anything like this, and that's for a reason. No matter how bad the virus, such policies turn a challenge into a catastrophe." – Jeffrey A. Tucker
Abandon ship! Governors scramble to end lockdowns, mask mandates – "16 states are now following the science. The centrally planned solutions to COVID-19 have failed spectacularly, and the American people have taken notice of this reality. Hundreds of millions have now been through a full year of government-imposed tyranny on both a federal and state level.None of it worked. All of it served as a net negative. The people have noticed. " – Jordan Schachtel
Texas Sends out National Guard to Inject Home-bound Seniors with Experimental COVID Vaccines – "Texas Governor Greg Abbott made headlines today by ending a state-wide face mask mandate, and allowing businesses to fully reopen. But it was an announcement he made at the end of last week that is raising some eyebrows among those waking up to the fact that many seniors are dying soon after being injected with the experimental COVID vaccines. The Governor announced that the State was deploying 1100 National Guard troops to go door to door to vaccinate seniors who are home-bound this week." – Brian Shilhavy
COVID: apocalypse omelet with Fauci sauce, Gates pickles, served in a roadside Censorship Diner by Joe Biden in his pajamas after escaping the White House and hitching a ride to Kansas – Jon Rappoport – LONG BUT GOOD ARTICLE FROM JON ABOUT COVID, YOUR RIGHTS AND THE "BIG PICTURE"!!!!!
COVID death data fraud – "I've had enough. The media continue to report what they consider the death toll from the Wuhan virus, despite the fact that it is fiction and defies basic tenets of scientific integrity. I'll explain why, but first let me tell you what qualifies me to know it's a lie." – Dennis McGowan
Because Why WOULDN'T We Awaken Microbes That Have Been Dormant for 100 Million Years? – "Just because we can doesn't mean we should. Scientists are hard at work reawakening bacterial microbes that have been dormant for 100 million years. While everyone else was focusing on the spread of COVID-19 and the civil liberty/economic fallout of the crisis, many news stories went unnoticed in 2020. Ironically, many of them had to do with viruses and the possibility of scientists creating an unintentional pandemic." – Robert Wheeler
The Government Needs a Lobotomy and Humanity Needs to Grow Some Balls – "Ihave a lot on my mind, as I'm sure many Americans do right now. First and foremost, why is the government injecting themselves into every area of our lives, and going so far as to make us a genderless country? That was a rhetorical question. I wonder if people comprehend what's really transpiring?They are pulling out all the stops. This goes far beyond politics – this is about the human race. " – Corey Lynn – IF YOU READ ANYTHING TODAY, READ THIS ONE. EXCELLENT ARTICLE FROM COREY AS IS MOST OF HER ARTICLES!!!!!!!
Home Invasions: All the Ways the Government Can Lay Siege to Your Property – "Americans are not safe in their homes. Not anymore, at least. This present menace comes from the government and its army of bureaucratized, corporatized, militarized mercenaries who are waging war on the last stronghold left to us as a free people: the sanctity of our homes. The weapons of this particular war on our personal security and our freedoms include an abundance of laws that criminalize almost everything we do, a government that views our private property as its own, militarized police who have been brainwashed into believing that they operate above the law, courts that insulate police from charges of wrongdoing, legislatures that legitimize the government's usurpations of our rights, and a populace that is so ignorant of their rights and distracted by partisan politics as to be utterly incapable of standing up to the government's overreaches, incursions and power grabs. This is how far the mighty have fallen." – John W. Whitehead & Nisha Whitehead – GOOD READ FROM JOHN, AS USUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Quality Of Life In The United States Is Going Down The Toilet – Michael Snyder
Blackout: White House curbs press, public access as Biden struggles with public demands of job – "Throughout his presidential campaign and continuing since taking the White House, Joe Biden has promised a transparent approach to press and public relations. Yet in recent weeks, his administration has closed off — at least for now — several key avenues via which the press and public have for years gained a modicum of transparency, accessibility and accountability from the White House. These moves to curb press and public access come as President Joe Biden himself has at times appeared to be struggling with the public demands of his job." – Daniel Payne

Why the cancellation of Dr Seuss matters – "This is not some confected culture-war spat. Woke zealots want to purge culture, and they're succeeding." – Sean Collins
Cuomo's problem isn't #MeToo. It's killing old people – "Sexual harassment allegations are a distraction from the real scandal. Introspection and mea culpas aren't the left's strong suit, so Cuomo has to be turned into a 'predator' — and not just a slightly gross elderly man. Progressives are kneecapping Cuomo with their favorite weapon — #MeToo — because they don't want to admit that the man they celebrated for imposing harsh COVID restrictions was actually a disaster." – Amber Athey
How is Chris Cuomo still on the air at CNN? – "Is there a bigger joke in broadcast news than Chris Cuomo? Now, he says, he cannot cover his brother, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, because it's a conflict of interest. You don't say? Apparently no such conflict arose when Chris constantly hosted his brother during the height of the pandemic, tastelessly turning his nightly news show into "The Cuomo Brothers Variety Hour."" – Maureen Callahan
In Defense Of Substack – "UCLA professor Sarah T. Roberts mourns the good old days of gatekeeping and credential-worship" – Matt Taibbi – GOOD ARTICLE FROM MATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The New World Order's Pied Pipers – ""BUILD BACK BETTER" The folks who brought down the American middle class and destroyed our small businesses, (the Davos elites, ChiComms, radical Left, corrupt Dems and RINOs, etc.), want to help us out by "building back" what they recklessly destroyed. And they, being geniuses, are convinced they can make things better than they were pre-Covid. So let's see how." – Cherie Zaslawsky
Is your baby racist? – "According to the Arizona Department of Education, even three-month-old kids hold racial prejudices." – Spiked
Biden Regime Escalates War on Russia by Other Means – "on Tuesday, the State Department defied reality with the following fabricated accusation: Biden's Secretary of State Blinken "determined that the Government of the Russian Federation has used a chemical weapon against its own nationals (sic)." No evidence suggests it. None was presented by the US or EU to support the charge — invented, not legitimate, as part of longstanding US-led Western war on Russia by other means." – Stephen Lendman
Biden Digs Up the Hatchet – "Joe Biden decided from his very first days to plunge the US – and the entire world – into the cold world of armed confrontation, something that was a trademark for the 44th US president, Democrat Barack Obama." – Vladimir Danilov
Should We Fear a German Ministry of Social Cohesion? – "The idea that there needs to be a ministry to make certain ethnic groups feel a greater sense of equality is of course a red flag." – Tim Kirby
The Real Story of the Covid Catastrophe is Larger Than You Know Covid may soon be the least of our worries. Humans, and animals raised by humans for food, are now the dominant species on earth; fully 96% of all mammals on this planet are us and our livestock. As we drive deeper and deeper into the wild spaces of Earth and simplify formerly complex ecosystems, we're encountering diseases that were only small annoyances to the animals that coevolved with them over millions of years. Now they plague us. Our single species is wiping out other species at a rate not seen since the last great extinction when the dinosaurs vanished. This is absolutely unsustainable." – Thom Hartmann

Bill Gates Wants to Realize Global Vision in His Lifetime – "Today, Gates monopolizes or wields disproportional influence over the tech industry, global health and vaccines, agriculture and food policy (including biopiracy and fake food), weather modification and other climate technologies, surveillance, education and media. According to Gates, vaccines are phenomenal profit makers, with more than a 20-to-1 return. Gates is now promoting the technocratic "reset" plan, which includes an aggressive climate change agenda, yet Gates' extensive travel by private jet makes him a top polluter." – Dr. Joseph Mercola
Emergency Plans: Are Yours Really Complete? – "One of the reasons that we make plans is to give us a framework for preparation. Even if we don't follow our plans exactly, most of what we do to prepare for implementing that plan will be useful. A stockpile of food and supplies, the ability to purify water, and start a fire are pretty much universally useful, regardless of what happens. The other big reason why we plan is that it is tough to think clearly during a crisis" – Bill White

How many more times do we have to watch Jay Powell claim his speculative bubble isn't a bubble, and that his massive expansion of billionaires' fortunes will magically create jobs for all those living in the real world he's created of stagnation, social depression and inequality?" – Charles Hugh Smith

Don't let faucets continuously drip, there are simple steps that you can do yourself to check and replace your faucet.
If a door sags a little, the latch bolt will be out of alignment with the striking plate. You can correct a small misalignment issue by unscrewing the plate and enlarging its cut-out with a small metal file.
Alternatively, remove the striking plate and fix it a little lower down the frame. Use a sharp chisel and a mallet to extend the recess in which it fits. If the plate has to be moved only a small distance, drill out the old screw holes and fill them with dowels. Drill new pilot holes for the fixing screws.
Slamming a door will often lead to the frame becoming loose. For masonry walls, make new fixings using three easy-drive Fischer wall anchors on either side of the frame.
The length of the frame plugs, which come complete with hammer-in screws, should be the thickness of the frame plus at least 60mm. Using the correct size masonry bit for the size of the wall plug you will be using, drill through the frame and into the wall behind it to the required depth.
Hammer the screw and plug into the hole until the screw head is flush with the frame.
A door that is difficult to close, and tends to spring open, is said to be hinge-bound. The problem is usually caused by hinge recesses cut too deep in either the door edge or in the frame.
Generally, when correctly fitted, the hinge flaps should be flush with the surface of the wood. Protruding screw heads and badly placed hinge flaps can stop a door from closing and even damage the door.
Open the door fully and then put a wedge under it. Clear any paint from the slots in the hinge screws and remove them. Remove the screws from the bottom or lower hinges first, always leaving the top hinge attached with at least one screw until last. Then have a helper hold the door while you remove that last screw.
Hinges may bind because the screws have been put in askew or because their heads are too large to fit flush in the countersinks in the hinge flaps. Remove the offending screws and replace them with screws with smaller heads. If they will not tighten, pack out the holes with matches, toothpicks and wood glue.
Binding can also be caused by hinge flaps that are set into the frame too near to the door stop or rebate. As the door is closed, the face presses against the stop. Remove the hinges, drill out the old screw holes and plug them with glued dowels. Chisel the dowel ends off flush with the recess.
Drill new fixing holes so that the hinge is farther away from the door stop. The hinge pin should be just clear of the door edge. Fill the resulting gaps beside the re-positioned hinges with wood filler.
Cut the muslin in half. If you started with 36″ fabric it will be 18″ in length and width. If you started with 45″ fabric it will be 22 1/2″ in length by 18″ width. Either is fine.
You will be working along the 18″ width. Lightly draw the holiday saying you want your scarf to express. Make sure to space the letters so they are centered. To do this count all of the letters in your saying and find the center letter. Draw that letter first in the center of the width. Work your way out on both sides by drawing the remaining letters making sure they spread out across the distance and are not bunched up in the middle.
Using the embroidery floss, embroider the letters in one color.
Fold the fabric in half with the embroidery on the inside. Stitch the fabric all the way around leaving an opening for turning. Clip the corners off of the fabric beyond the stitching. Turn fabric right side out. Press with the iron. Do not use starch.
Lay the scarf onto a baking sheet and bake it in the oven at 275 for 30 minutes.
If you like the look of the scarf prior to dying simply stop there. You can always spray the scarf with a cinnamon scent to still get the aroma through your home.
Saunas are a tradition for Gabriel Lortie in keeping with his family's Finnish origins. While growing up, everyone—frequently joined by other relatives and friends—used the sauna his father built. Now he is approaching completion of his own custom sauna in the yard of his home in Middleboro, Massachusetts.
It is an undertaking in which he has drawn as well on his professional background. Lortie, 34, who holds a civil engineering degree, operates a commercial and residential building and design business with his father. Their work, which includes church steeple reconstruction, takes them around the greater Boston area and elsewhere in New England.
Lortie has had to balance the time spent on the sauna with his work and other commitments, he told during an interview inside the 500-square-foot structure. His ideas for what he wanted go back a few years but he's had to do the building in stages and budget for the separate components.
He put in the concrete after starting the design and layout, sometimes continuing to sketch what was in his mind wherever he was at the moment. The sauna foundation stood for four or five years with no blocks or anything else before he had the outside and walls built, Lortie said.
After erecting the exterior building, another several months were required to install the windows, shingles, and do the painting. He did the electrical circuit wiring himself from a manual. Lortie's father, Bill, helped do some of the siding when he had time available. His youngest brother, Justin, who also has worked on their construction projects, helped to paint the trim and do other steps along the way.
The sauna building eventually will have a TV room, a living room, and possible art studio to accompany the existing loft with a railing around it and slide into wall ladder. High definition wires and cables are going to the television.
Lortie plans to have a surround sound speaker underneath where he placed all the speaker wires. He moved all the wires out of sight to go into a closet which will have a receiver, Blu-ray player, RF connection, and electronic eye.
A wireless Internet hub additionally will be inside the wall. The wires will be sealed with expanding foam insulation to keep out moisture when the sauna's in use, even if moisture collects on the other side of the wood.

A: Change button html following way:

Change your js function:

myFunction: function () {
    console.log('Click Me');
}

Make sure you deleted html template from pub/static/frontend/....
