Notice of proxy assignment must be in writing to the Secretary, naming the proxy and stipulating the meeting at which proxy votes may be cast.
C. Postal Ballots. Except for ballots for the election of members of the Executive Board WFCC, which must be conducted according to Article XII of the Statutes, when postal ballots are called for and acted upon, valid ballot papers received by the Secretary within six months of their date of issue shall be counted and a decision based on a simple majority of the votes received.
D. Financial Subscription of Members.
Ordinary (Individual) 20 EURO
Affiliate 150 EURO

E. Standards for Culture Collections admitted as Affiliates of the World Federation for Culture Collections. Two classes of affiliated membership are established:
Collaborating Affiliates conform to the following Standards 1-7;
Associated Affiliates conform to the following Standards 1a, 1b, 2, 3, and 7.
1a. The collection and its future should be institution-dependent and not dependent merely upon the presence or interest of a single individual in the institution. The institution should be able to guarantee the collection its support for a period of not less than five years from the date of admission of the collection to the WFCC.
1b. Collections are also eligible for membership if they are nominated and accepted for support by a financing or governing body even if the institution in which the collection is housed may be changed, provided that the supporting body is prepared to be able to guarantee the existence of the collection for at least five years.
2. The collection should demonstrate that it can maintain its cultures in a viable and satisfactory condition with the necessary equipment for the maintenance of the cultures which it lists.
3. The person immediately responsible for the maintenance of the collection should have the necessary qualifications for the post, and his position should be permanent in terms of (1) above.

7. Affiliate membership may be reviewed by the Executive Board of the Federation on each General Assembly.

G. Amendment of Statutes and Bylaws. Proposals for amendment of the Statutes and Bylaws may be made in writing by any two members of the Federation. Emendation is accomplished by a simple majority of votes cast by members on a mail ballot submitted by the Secretary at the direction of the Executive Board after its members have had opportunity to review and comment on the proposals. An amendment becomes effective upon publication or notice issued by the Secretary or not later upon anouncement at the next succeeding General Assembly.

Every day, businesses are pouring all their resources into attracting new customers while neglecting the customers they already have. They are missing out on a huge opportunity because current customers are far easier to re-engage and resell to.

Are you neglecting the customers you already have? Are you not selling enough to current customers? The following obstacles to repeat business might be the reasons why. Overcome them and you might be able to sell a lot more!

Red Dwarf to return
Sci-fi comedy Red Dwarf is to return next year.
TV channel Dave has ordered two series of the classic show, which stars Craig Charles, Chris Barrie, Danny John-Jules, and Robert Llewellyn as the crew of a ship marooned in space.
Production will begin this autumn, with series airing in 2016 and 2017.
Red Dwarf first aired on BBC2 in 1988, where it ran for eight series, and garnered a cult following and numerous awards.
After a decade-long absence from screens, Dave produced three specials to celebrate the show's 21st anniversary in 2009. Red Dwarf: Back to Earth attracted over two and a half million viewers, and later spawned a full series, which went out on Dave in 2012.
Co-creator Doug Naylor will write and direct the new series, with all of the original cast set to reprise their roles.
"Frustratingly it's taken until now to get our ducks in a row and all the boys available at the same time," Naylor said. "Now they are, we're all absolutely delighted."
Commissioning editor Simon Lupton said: "Red Dwarf has superb talent attached: writing, directing and acting plus an expert team who absolutely know what they are doing when it comes to delivering a stand-out piece of television. It has a universal appeal that manages to touch long-standing fans and recruit new ones.
"It is fantastic to be collaborating with them again on the next phase of the Red Dwarf adventure."

What are the best things to see in Barcelona with kids, what are the best Barcelona shore excursions?
If you are travelling with little ones a great way to get out of the Barcelona heat is to visit the aquarium.
You can not visit Barcelona without going on the Gaudí Trail.

Where Can I Eat In Barcelona?
Is there a supermarket close to the port in Barcelona?

Barcelona is a popular European cruise port and also my favourite port to embark from. There are dozens of daily flights from the UK into Barcelona making it accessible and the perfect place to spend a couple of days pre or post cruise. However if you are just stopping in port for a day and wondering what to do in Barcelona? It is super easy to navigate with lots to see and do for families with Children of all ages.
Yes it is a 10 minute walk to get to the bottom of Las Ramblas from the World Trade Center cruise ship terminal. However some of the other terminals are 10-20 min walk, or there are always taxis available if you don't fancy the long walk.
For the city lovers amongst us, Barcelona has so much to offer families, we have visited many times and there is always something new and exciting to see.
Barcelona aquarium is the largest aquarium in the world. There are many tanks demonstrating the amazing aquatic wildlife living off the shores of Europe and more tropical climes. Each has a display board with an explanation in several languages about the environment that had been recreated and what lived there. Making this the perfect place to explore and cool off.
And the FC Barcelona shop (which is located on Las Ramblas) And don't worry, if you are not a fan there is a champagne bar to sample. Tours start from €25 per person and I would recommend booking in advance. I have it on good authority from the Christie boys that this is an amazing experience. The champagne was pretty good too.
Antoni Gaudí was a Barcelona-based Spanish architect whose free-flowing works were greatly influenced by nature. His works are nothing short of breathtaking. And there are signs of this inspirational man all over the city.
Check out Claire's post for more amazing ideas for things to see in Barcelona, or Click here for Barcelona Bus routes.
If you have a little time in your hands get out and see the real Barcelona, take a wine tour or head to the some of the stunning beaches the region has to offer such as Vilianova beach. Or check out the views from Calella's lighthouse, and ensure your kids get the chance to ring the lighthouse bells! If visiting in the summer check the website for special events which take place to entertain the whole family.
If you are sailing from Barcelona there is a vast selection of hotels to suit all budgets for families.
If you are looking for a seaside location then our editor Claire recommends the AC Hotel Gava Mar which is located 5km from Barcelona Airport and 17km from the city.
Her family also loved the Leonardo city centre hotel where they stayed before joining a Mediterranean cruise on Carnival Vista. This hotel is a two minutes walk from Las Ramblas, which is ideal for seeing the sights with our two pre-schoolers.
I found the Novotel City Hotel is the perfect cool pad to stay with teens, with an ultra cool rooftop pool and spacious rooms. The Novotel City is location opposite and small shopping centre with bars and restaurants and steps away from the tram stop so you can explore the city.
For romantic stays without the kids the Casa Fuster is a stunning boutique hotel right at the top of Las Ramblas, affording great views of the city from the rooftop bar. It is surrounded by high-end stores and restaurants making it the prefect place to kick off your cruise.
Click for a detailed weather report here. Or the graph below highlight average temperatures in Barcelona for the whole year, which is useful for planning your next cruise.
There are so many restaurants hidden away in Barcelona. If you staying up near Casa Fuster there are some incredible restaurants to check out. But my favourite place to dine in Barcelona is Les Quinz Nits which is based on a stunning square dotted with bars restaurants and some days a locals market called Placa Reial which is just off Las Ramblas.
There are many supermarkets near the port should you need to top up on supplies such a nappies, wet wipes and sun-cream check here for a list of supermarkets in Barcelona.

Q: Find the lastIndexOf() an object with a key in array of objects I'm looking for a way to find the last index of an object in Javascript from a point in an array. For example:
array.lastIndexOf(object.key, start);

So far, I haven't found a good solution for this problem. I could splice the array from the 'start' point, reverse it, and then search the sliced array for the key value, but this seems like an inefficient solution to me.
EDIT:
To illustrate the problem a little more, I'm posting the code that I used in the end to solve the problem. Essentially; what I did was I used While to loop through the previous values in the array.
getLastValue = (index) => {
  const arr = [
    {'d':'01-02-2017','v':'123'},
    {'d':'02-02-2017'},
    {'d':'04-02-2017'},
    {'d':'05-02-2017','v':'456'},
    ...
  ];

  let lastValue;

  while (arr[index] && !arr[index].v) {
    index--;
  }

  lastValue = arr[index];

  return lastValue;
}

A: With ES2015 and findIndex you can pass a callback to look for an objects key.
If you make a copy of the array, and reverse it, you can find the last one by subtracting that index from the total length (and 1, as arrays are zero based)
It's not very efficient, but it's one line, and works well for normally sized arrays i.e. not a million indices
var idx = arr.length - 1 - arr.slice().reverse().findIndex( (o) => o.key == 'key' );

var arr = [{key : 'not'}, {key : 'not'}, {key : 'key'}, {key : 'not'}];

var idx = arr.length - 1 - arr.slice().reverse().findIndex( (o) => o.key == 'key' ); // 2

console.log(idx)

A more efficient approach would be to iterate backwards until you find the object you're looking for, and break the loop

var arr = [{key: 'not'}, {key: 'not'}, {key: 'key'}, {key: 'not'}];

var idx = (function(key, i) {
  for (i; i--;) {
    if (Object.values(arr[i]).indexOf(key) !== -1) {
      return i;
      break;
    }
  }   return -1;
})('key', arr.length);

console.log(idx)

A: I think you want something like below:

var arr = [ { key: "a" }, { key: "b" }, { key: "c" }, { key: "e" }, { key: "e" }, { key: "f" } ];

console.log(lastIndexOf("e", 2));

function lastIndexOf(keyValue, start) {
    for (var i = arr.length - 1; i >= start; i--) {
        if (arr[i].key === keyValue) {
            return i;
        }
    }
    return null;
}

A: You can do this:

*

*reverse your array: let newArr = arr.reverse()

*use findIndex: newArr.findIndex(obj => obj.d == "your String")

A: Personally, I wouldn't choose either solution. Here is why:
LastIndexOf:
The problem lies in the comparing of elements while searching through the array. It does compare the elements using strict equality. Therefore comparing objects will always fail, except they are the same. In OP case they are different.
Slice & reverse one-liner @adeneo
Given an array of three elements [{key: A},{key: B},{key: C}] and the lookup for the last index of key = D will give you an index of 3. This is wrong as the last index should be -1 (Not found)
Looping through the array
While this is not necessarily wrong, looping through the whole array to find the element isn't the most concise way to do it. It's efficient yes, but readability can suffer from it. If I had to choose one, I'd probably choose this one. If readability / simplicity is your friend, then below is yet one more solution.

A simple solution
We can make lastIndexOf work, we just need to make the value comparable (strict equality conform). Or simply put: we need to map the objects to a single property that we want to find the last index of using javascript's native implementation.
const arr = [ { key: "a" }, { key: "b" }, { key: "c" }, { key: "e" }, { key: "e" }, { key: "f" } ];

arr.map(el => el.key).lastIndexOf("e"); //4
arr.map(el => el.key).lastIndexOf("d"); //-1

// Better:
const arrKeys = arr.map(el => el.key);
arrKeys.lastIndexOf("c"); //2
arrKeys.lastIndexOf("b"); //1

A fast solution
Simple backwards lookup (as concise and as fast as possible). Note the -1 return instead of null/undefined.
const arr = [ { key: "a" }, { key: "b" }, { key: "c" }, { key: "e" }, { key: "e" }, { key: "f" } ];

const lastIndexOf = (array, key) => {
  for(let i = array.length - 1; i >= 0; i--){
    if(array[i].key === key)
      return i;
  }
  return -1;
};

lastIndexOf(arr, "e"); //4
lastIndexOf(arr, "x"); //-1

A: i used sample code, like this:
//find last index in object array
const lastIndexOf = arr.reduce((acc,cur,idx)=>cur.key==xxx?idx:acc,-1)

//find last index of object in object array
const lastIndexOfObject = arr.reduce((acc,cur,idx)=>cur.key==xxx?cur:acc,undefined)

A: Just try to find last index in the whole massive and compare it to start
let ind = array.lastIndexOf(object.key);
if (ind > start) {return}

A: let a = [
        {prop1:"abc",prop2:"incomplete"},
        {prop1:"bnmb",prop2:"completed"},
        {prop1:"bnmb",prop2:"prajapati"},
        {prop1:"zxvz",prop2:"testAJ"},
        {prop1:"last",prop2:"completed"},
        {prop1:"last",prop2:"incomplete"},
        {prop1:"last",prop2:"incomplete11"},
        {prop1:"last",prop2:"incomplete"},
        {prop1:"last",prop2:"incomplete"},
        {prop1:"last",prop2:"incompleteness"},
      ];

      let findLastduplicateObjectIndex =  a.map(el => el.prop2).lastIndexOf("incomplete");

Techno-typing hits high speed
New brain-sensing technology could reduce the amount of monkeys needed to type the complete works of Shakespeare.
High-tech implants can directly read brain signals and use them to drive a cursor moving over a keyboard.
In a recent experiment, monkeys were able to write out passages from the New York Times and Hamlet at about 12 words per minute.
The latest iteration of the technology, developed at Stanford University, significantly improves the speed and accuracy of interpreting brain signals and moving the cursor.
"Our results demonstrate that this interface may have great promise for use in people," said Nuyujukian.
"It enables a typing rate sufficient for a meaningful conversation."
Other approaches to helping people type have involved tracking eye movements or the movements of individual muscles in the face, but these require a high degree of muscle control that many users find tiring, if not impossible.
Directly reading brain signals using an implanted multi-electrode array is overcoming some of these challenges.
The implants are designed to read signals from a region of the brain that usually controls hand and arm movements, like for operating a computer mouse.
The most recent breakthroughs have been in the algorithms that translate the signals and make letter selections from an alphabet grid.
"The interface we tested is exactly what a human would use," Nuyujukian said.
"What we had never quantified before was the typing rate that could be achieved."
The new algorithms allowed the monkeys to type more than three times faster than earlier approaches.
The monkeys involved in the tests had already been trained to type letters (with their thoughts) matching ones that appear a screen.
In the latest study they transcribed passages of the New York Times and Hamlet.
There is a significant difference between transcription and generating spontaneous writing, so researchers are keen to see how the 12 words per minute will stand up in later experiments with humans.
"What we cannot quantify is the cognitive load of figuring out what words you are trying to say," Nuyujukian said.
"Also understand that we're not using auto completion here like your smartphone does where it guesses your words for you."
The recent study also provided new information on the resilience of the brain implants themselves.
The monkeys that have the implants used to test this and previous iterations of the technology were first implanted over four years ago, but the research team has found no loss of performance or side effects in the animals so far.
The team from the Brain-Machine Interface initiative of the Stanford Neurosciences Institute running a clinical trial this year with a view to testing the interface in humans.
The latest paper is accessible here, and the technology is demonstrated in the video below.

Moog Music Forum • View topic - The "Sophie's Choice" of synthesizers.
Greetings Moog One pioneers. As the folks who are first ones to explore this synth (as well as going through the various 1.0 bug issues), I'd love to get your opinions on what is well, obviously a first-world problem.
While I don't have the spare cash to rush out and buy a 16 voice Moog One, I do have a "golden ticket" I could cash in to get one. I have an Oberheim 4-Voice. (Believe it or not, I'm the original owner.) When the One came out, I thought this is the first synthesizer I'd consider selling it to get. And judging what 4-Voices have gone for on Reverb, I should be able to get a Moog One and actually have some cash left over (As crazy as that sounds).
So here's what I'm wondering. The One demos out there are all over the map, and it is almost impossible to see or play a One in person, even at NAMM (Bummed me out that they had none out in the public area of their space). How are you folks feeling about your Moog One so far? Would you make this trade for a One if you were in my shoes? (The Oberheim is in great shape by the way, safe in my studio).
Are things like the Moog One noise floor issue, fans, MIDI problems all firmware based? Is the noise issue all in the effects area? Is it meeting your expectations? Look forward to hearing your views.
PS: Thank you "Demon Dan" Fisher for doing more than anybody to show what this instrument is about. Also, your cover of the Blade Runner theme was the first thing I heard that made me go "Well, now that could be worth considering doing the Obie trade for".
Re: The "Sophie's Choice" of synthesizers.
Two years ago, I sold mine to a collector who owned a few original SEMs and was looking for a stock condition FVS. I did keep one SEM. I bought a custom panel, built a power supply, and installed the SEM into my 5U system wall. There are some extensive sonic capabilities that the original SEMs had that aren't available on the stock machines (e.g. external modulation, separating the oscillators, simultaneous outputs from the different filter topologies, etc.) which are easily accessed when they have all the unused connections brought out to a front patch-panel. I also really love the Oby's multimode filter for certain effects. It was a difficult decision, but the money I was being offered compared to the amount of use it was getting was tough to ignore.
When the One was released, I jumped on it. Got mine last November and it is an epic synth in every sense of the word. When played with a bit, the state variable filter does a very convincing Oberheim sound. To be honest, I'm somewhat annoyed that the bug fixes discussed elsewhere (in my case the tuning and midi implementation) have yet to be released. But I'm quite optimistic that they will be resolved and when complete, this will be my desert island synth.
The noise floor is very low, if you don't use the built in FXs. All the presets are using a bit too much of FX. Maybe just to show off their presents. Or the taste of the factory sounds is just not mine. I am more into good old vintage analog sounds. And the Moog One delivers these sounds easily. And especially without the FXs used. I like its sound character.
And the fan us not as loud as on my Waldorf WAVE I had for 25 years.
I am not using MIDI controller data at all, as I am not using a DAW here. So the lack if a full MIDI control in the current OS does not stop the show here.
I had no crash or something alike in 2 weeks using it. There are a few missing things and a bit nasty bug when switching from monomode to polymode. But the next software update should help getting the last missing things right.
I am not sure, if selling you vintage Oberheim is the right thing to do. It depends on your goals and way of playing. But the Moog One is a fantastic synth to me. And I am into synths for 38 years and own and owned many synths.
Thanks guys, this is the level of expertise and first hand knowledge I had a feeling I could get from this forum.
I still have the Oberheim for the same reason I bought it originally. It sounds amazing. (And speaking of amazing, I still find it fairly amazing how a synthesizer that can only play 4 notes can sound so huge.) So I'm not holding onto it for collector reasons.
And yes, there is the maintenance thing. I have to crate it and send it to my "Oberheim guy" in California. (Funny, I have an excellent Oberheim tech who doesn't work on Moogs and an excellent Moog tech who doesn't work on Oberheims.) So there's that.
It's good to know that even with the current bugs that you guys still see the One as a total keeper. Seems like starting from scratch with patches and avoiding the effect section for now is the ticket. The synth seems absolutely incredible. The factory patches, not as much.
It's a tough decision for me and this definitely helps.
AlakaLazio is right. Don't sell an appreciating keyboard, at least until your significant other lays down the law. Keep collecting - it will take longer but you'll have zero regrets. Besides, several claim that The One still has some quirks (many of which you can read about in this forum) that will continue to get ironed out, meaning it will only keep getting better. As for me, I have had no problems with it and have just installed v1.04 this morning. It IS a dream machine but it's not going anywhere and will be just as unique in its space a year from now as it is today.


Being from the South, I've always enjoyed sweet potatoes as standard fare. I'm always looking for new ways to prepare sweet potatoes, and this recipe is my favorite. The topping provides a crunchy delightful contrast to the consistency of the mashed sweet potatoes.
In large bowl, beat eggs. Add next five ingredients; mix well. Spoon into ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over potatoes. Bake at 350° for 30-40 minutes.
1 cup: 702 calories, 33g fat (17g saturated fat), 126mg cholesterol, 395mg sodium, 99g carbohydrate (73g sugars, 3g fiber), 7g protein.
This has become our favorite sweet potato recipe, and make it every year for Thanksgiving!
I cut sugar to 1/2 c in the potato mixture and it was sweet enough. Also I did not have cornflakes, but had honeybunches of oats as a substitute, really good.
Just GREAT . . . will make again for Christmas.
My favorite - the only time I really indulge. I make it with Splenda and Splenda Brown Sugar - still GREAT!
I agree that this is a fabulous recipe. Two substitutions to try are (1) Craisins instead of raisins, and (2) crumbled ginger snaps instead of corn flakes. If you have access to a Trader Joe's grocery, use their Triple Ginger Snaps for which they are famous. For an extra "kick" , add some brandy to potato mixture!
This just like the one my mother always made at Thanksging & Christmas. We always looked to having this side dish.

[Sort of] Quick Review: In Bruges (2008)
Posted on October 16, 2012 by Daniel Prinn
In Bruges
Director: Martin McDonagh
Stars: Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Ralph Fiennes
Tagline: Shoot first. Sightsee later.
Martin McDonagh brings us a great action comedy in his first feature film endeavour.
Colin Farrell portrays a hitman named Ray. Ray is currently in a bad state, because he is guilt-ridden because of a job gone wrong, where he accidentally killed an innocent bystander. He and his partner in crime, Ken (Brendan Gleeson) get put in a small bed and breakfast in Bruges, Belgium. They are told to wait there by their boss, Harry (Ralph Fiennes), who tells them to sightsee and enjoy the scenery. Ken's all up for it, but it's not particularly something that interests simple-minded Ray. Once Harry finally gives the job to Ray, he isn't sure if he can go through with it – and must have an internal fight of morals to make his final decision.
McDonagh has a real knack for making the seemingly worst of people, like in this film hitmen, and turn them into great and fairly likeable character. Ray is likeable, despite his constant pessimism and irritability. In McDonagh's most recent film, and second feature film, Seven Psychopaths, he makes a set of psychopaths into likeable characters.
His unique character development is great because you can easily get emotionally invested into these colourful characters. Each character is pretty great.
There are quite a few gruesome scenes, but they are pretty fun to watch, especially if gruesome action is your forté. The comedy is pretty great, I was chuckling in a few scenes and was laughing uncontrollably in others. If you do love this sort of gruesome action and McDonagh's brand of comedy, it'll sort of be an action-comedy styled Heaven.
Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Ralph Fiennes, Clémence Poésy, Jérémie Renier, Jordan Prentice, Thekla Reuten, Mark C. Donovan, Zeljko Ivanek, Eric Godon and Rudy Blomme star in this film.
In Bruges is a great cinematic experience that is unique and definitely deserved that Best Original Screenplay nomination. Some of the comedy is really far between, and some scenes aren't as memorable as others, but that's really its only flaw. I don't think I'll rush back to watching it, but I'm glad I did, because it was pretty fun and had some great characters with great layers.

Seven Psychopaths (2012)
Stars: Colin Farrell, Woody Harrelson, Sam Rockwell
Tagline: They won't take any Shih Tzu
Marty (Colin Farrell) is a struggling writer trying to write up a screenplay entitled 'Seven Psychopaths'. He doesn't really know how to start it out, and is struggling to find inspiration. His friend Billy (Sam Rockwell) tries to offer him some inspiration, despite constantly accusing him of being an alcoholic. Marty soon becomes entangled in the Los Angeles criminal underworld, much to his dislike, after his oddball friends kidnap a gangster's (Woody Harrelson) prized Shih Tzu.
The screenplay is smart and fun.
The plot is great and the film is just a fun experience. The pacing can feel a little off, and the plot can get quite ridiculous, but that's what makes it fun.
If there's any message I would have taken from this is that McDonagh makes great and original films, and his humour can sometimes be similar to that of Quentin Tarantino. The film is fun and can get a little crazy, but who could have thought up a plot so ridiculous? There is a lot of humour found in the most intense of situations, and I love that.
One of the funniest things about this film is all this carnage was started over a little Shih Tzu. Nope, not a wife, not a bunch of stolen cocaine, not the kidnapping of a best friend (even though a dog can be a man's best friend) or anything like that – but a freaking Shih Tzu dog named Bonnie.
I love the characters. Even Harrelson, who is the main antagonist, is a great character. Who thought psychopaths can absolutely be this lovable and hysterical? My favourite character would be a hard answer to give. The female psychopaths (played by Abbie Cornish and Olga Kurylenko) would be out first, because they hardly have a lot of lines of dialogue at all. Tom Waits' character of Zachariah is hysterical. Of the main protagonists, Billy (Sam Rockwell) would be the funniest, and then Hans (Christopher Walken). Generally, Charlie (Woody Harrelson) is my favourite, because he is just hysterical. Each character is well-developed.
For those of you who may have seen McDonagh's In Bruges, will be familiar with his certain sense of humour, and you may also know that his films have the tendency to get extremely gruesome. There is gore left right and centre in this film, but for anybody who likes that sort of stuff – will be probably love this.
The film offers a laugh at least every two minutes, and its spikes of crime and violence are great. Some of the time there are flashbacks and stuff which are good, and there are also movie-within-a-movie subplots which are effective. The moods set for this film is great, and all the subplots and general plot are extremely clever.
Seven Psychopaths stars Colin Farrell, Christopher Walken, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson, Olga Kurylenko, Tom Waits, Abbie Cornish and Zeljko Ivanek.
Seven Psychopaths is a clever screenplay that can have some poor pacing, and offers a fairly simple, ridiculous, yet clever plot; but, it is another winner from writer/directer Martin McDonagh. It can be equal parts brutal, clever and hysterical. It is most of all extremely memorable, has great characters and a very good cast. Each cast member portrays their characters well. This is yet another 2012 film (I'm talking about Ted or 21 Jump Street, not Project X) that proves that this is a year to beat for comedies. and this may just have to get an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay.

The king of beasts may soon be dethroned, scientists say. Trophy-hunting tourists are one of the causes - and three concerned Bahamian residents recently travelled to South Africa to take part in an international demonstration against the factory farming and canned hunting of lions.
Maggie Crouch, Julian Jakusz and Bonny Byfield are longtime Nassau residents who have operated a volunteer animal rescue and neutering service here for the past 20-plus years dubbed the Pink Potcake. Along the way, they have enjoyed several African safari tours, and last month they were in Cape Town to take part in a march organised by the Campaign Against Canned Hunting.
"This cruel practice is where lions are bred in captivity and then released into an enclosed area where they are shot like sitting ducks by wealthy trophy hunters," Crouch told me. "We have been on many safaris and have been absolutely thrilled by all our wildlife sightings, so we were proud to have done our little bit of payback for one of the most fabulous animals of the African bush."
The lion is one of the world's most charismatic animal species. They once roamed the whole of Africa, Europe and Asia, but their numbers and range today have been vastly reduced by hunting and development. Asiatic lions have been on the endangered list since 1970, and survive only as a remnant population of a few hundred in a single small area of India.
Some 30,000 African lions survive, down from perhaps 200,000 as recently as the 1970s and restricted to about 17 per cent of their historical range. But large populations (of 50 to 100 lion prides) are necessary to avoid inbreeding, which increases significantly when populations fall below 10 prides. These conditions are met in few wild lion populations today, experts say.
For many poorer Bahamians, incomes and prospects continue to worsen.
The Bahamian middle class is under enormous pressure and threat. The fallout from the Great Recession continues with a new normal of largely stagnant wages and significantly less disposable income.
While the fortunes of many of the wealthy in the West and here at home are rebounding, many in the middle class have lost or are losing hopes and dreams along with homes, small businesses and life savings.
The expanding gulf between the wealthy and middle class is growing with income inequality lass families have typically had to juggle bills. But the new normal after the Great Recession makes the juggling more difficult, more anxiety-ridden.
The result is an increasingly complex sort of lottery for many Bahamians who now have an even more difficult time deciding what portion of what bills they can afford to pay down at a given time.
It's a sign of the times that strawberries now grow in Greenland, on the Arctic Circle.
Until a few years ago farming was difficult to impossible in this ice-covered landscape because the temperatures did not stay warm long enough. But the times, as they say, are changing.
"There are now huge areas where you can grow things," said Josephine Nymand, a scientist at the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources. Crops now include potatoes, cabbage, strawberries, thyme and tomatoes.
That may be good for a handful of chefs and smallholders in Greenland, but what it means for the future of humanity in general was outlined in the latest global report from hundreds of climate scientists.
The three-part report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessed the current state of the world's climate based on multiple independent scientific analyses and observations. It also considers the impacts that climate change will have on societies and ecosystems around the world.
The final instalment - released just this month - looks at how the world can cut carbon dioxide emissions to keep atmospheric warming within an agreed safety limit by the end of this century - something which scientists refer to as 'mitigation'. The IPCC doesn't tell decision-makers what to do. Instead, it suggests different potential future scenarios, based on the evidence available.

Fruity American ale yeast. Great in American Pale Ales and IPAs.
Vermont Ale: Isolated from a uniquely crafted double IPA out of the Northeastern United States, this yeast produces a balanced fruity ester profile of peaches and light citrus that complements any aggressively hopped beer. Expect this strain to take off fast and ferment wort quickly, though elevating the temperature following the bulk of fermentation may be required to raise the attenuation. Attenuation has also been reported to increase when repitching after the first generation.
Liquid Yeasts are shipped with ice in an insulated bag. We recommend using express post to ensure that the yeast arrives in peak condition.

Bedugul Lake is the name of mountain lake areas, which many Balinese used for weekend retreat. When heat and humidity finally gets to you, a place to escape to is Bedugul. It is a highland of Bali, tucked into the crater of an extinct volcano 1400 meters above sea level. Here, three lakes offer everything from recreation to the water for springs, rivers and rice fields. Pine forest around the area creates a fress air. Bedugul is known for the quality of vegetables, fruits and flowers.
Mountain resort of Bedugul is 18 kilometers north of Denpasar, it is known as good place for golf sessions. Located near to Lake Bratan, this place is surrounded by wooded hills. Beautiful view of " Ulun Danu" temple can be seen from the lake. The area offers a good walk. The boat is also available for skiing and parasailing. With its convenient accomodations, beautiful view of Bedugul Lake, fresh fruits and vegetables, the cover of fog, mystical quality that is beautiful, and the average temperature of 18-24 degrees Celsius, Bedugul is popular place to spend the weekend since Dutch era. It is a welcome change from the tropical humidity in Bali.
Serene Lake Bratan fills a long-active volcano Gunung Catur, which towers above the lake. More than 1,200 meters above sea level, the area is almost as cool as Mount Batur. Even cold valley ride through the mountain botanical gardens stands of cabbage, papaya onions is more beautiful than a trip to Penelokan. Do not miss the beautiful high along the beautiful cultivated lake and through steep, jungle-covered hills and pine forests around the lake. Bedugul Lake starts cloudy in the afternoon. Overcast skies and rain usually make the area becomes very cold, so you must bring a jacket.
It's really crowded there on holidays, weekends and during the holiday season December 20 – January 5. At other times, the lake is quiet and almost free from local and foreign tourists. Along the sidewalk in front of Bedugul Hotel, there are boats with all sizes and descriptions. The boats are ready to pull water skiers and parasailors around the lake, or you can hire a "boat" and a small rowing on the quiet waters under the shady trees, and glide through the reflection of the foothills of the towering mountains and clouds Sophie. Swimming in the lake is very cold, but in the morning when the sun came out, the skating on the water on the glass surface of the lake is enough to attract international competition.
A good way to Bedugul from Singaraja bus station is by using "Bemo" or mini-bus. If heading north to Singaraja, take a "mini-bus" from Ubung station of Denpasar to quickest route through Kintamani. You will see dark band, heavy plated monkeys along this road. When it comes to Bedugul from the south, the first right is the recreational park. Actually, there are many ways to reach Bedugul, but if you don't know the ways, it is better for you to ask your tour guide to take you to Bedugul Lake.

Apparently RvB has a ban list, and some, er, issues that occurred in November of last year has resulted in me being on there, so I've been removed from RvB after managing a few kills. At least until the CEO gives his approval (or disapproval). Regardless, the removal means I'm locked out of RvB for a week because of War Dec mechanics. Go figure.
I'm also considering lowsec (might try to join Rifta) in the name of finding pewpew.

I'm in Minmatar FW, in Rifterlings. FW is a ton of fun. Getting fights is super easy and I solo, so I guess that's saying a bit. Fwedditors have a great attitude and are always eager to fight, so in some senses you couldn't go wrong by joining them. I've heard the rest of the Amarr militia is awful though– be wary.
Re lock out: 7 days only applies if reapping to Red assuming we have a 3rd party war. Doesnt stop you joining Blue – unless they share the 3rd party war.
Id say give FW a chuck mind, make billions in defence of your faction of choice.
Pretty sure there is no activity requirement for fweddit – if you have a reddit account, you can join.
You also don't need the standings to join a corp, only if you're joining solo. The corp average has to be above 0, but with 400+ members fweddit probably won't care.
Oh, and diplomacy isn't taken into account.
Your Reddit account needs to be three months old, I believe – they've increased the time as the corp has grown. But they don't look at how much/if you've posted.
R1FTA along with several of the other Molden Heath pirate corp are currently at war with E-Uni due to their LSC's foul invasion of Heild.
There's certainly plenty of fighting going on but it's not traditional Molden Heath style PvP due to the vast blobs of ECM faggotry E-Uni insist on fielding and calling 'small gang PvP'…….
But it's damn good fun nonetheless if a bit of a change from the usual dynamic!
We should be in a FW alliance we formed a week ago, but we are stuck in a mutual wardec LOL. Three other small corps in it and have been flying with us.


The cleanup continued Sunday in Franklin, where an EF-3 tornado left a trail of destruction Saturday morning.
Touching down just after 11:20 a.m., the tornado injured dozens and destroyed or damaged a still undetermined number of homes and buildings.
However, despite the storms power, there were no serious injuries or fatalities reported.
First Baptist Church in Franklin opened its doors Sunday morning, despite still not having power like much of the town. Churchgoers from other congregations joined the joint service and gave thanks they were able to survive the storm.
"None of us could prevent what happened, but all of us can make a contribution to the recovery," Pastor Ted Elmore said.
Among those to attend the service was Marilyn Kirven, whose home was destroyed on Saturday.
"Oh we are going to get through it," Kirven said. "Through God we going to get through this, we definitely going to get through this, my faith is so strong."
As many in Franklin gave thanks for surviving the storm, utility crews worked to get the power back on, a process that could take days.

Have only had them 2 weeks, and wore them twice. They are very cushy and comfortable. Hope they are durable. Seem like good quality. True to size. So far, very happy.
Having a 6E wide foot I have difficulty finding any type of shoe that is wide enough for my foot. There are a lot of comparable quality sandals available for a much lower price. Unfortunately, they will not fit me. That being said, the Dunham sandal is comfortable and very high quality.


You are what you eat and including some ingredients in your diet can change the way you look and feel. We get celebrity chef Rakhee Vaswani to share three beauty food recipes that will keep your tummy as well as your skin happy.
Broccoli - Broccoli is high in antioxidants and vitamins C and E. It aids in collagen production and keeps your skin healthy and supple. While Vitamin E protects your skin cell membrane and guard against UV radiation and damage.
1.Cook onion in olive oil till soft ,add the potato n stock & Cook till the potato is tender ,next add broccoli for 3-4 mins till it remains green .
2. Add some cheese and blend.
3. Bring back to the gas and season, adjust consistency & serve with toasted bread gratinated with cheese.
Chocolate - Flavnoids in dark chocolate absorb UV light, help protect and increase blood flow to the skin, and improve skin's hydration and complexion.
1. Butter 8 ramekins and keep it aside.
2. Using a double boiler melt the butter & chocolate and keep aside to cool.
3. In a separate bowl combine egg, sugar, vanilla essence & flour. Add the chocolate mixture & mix until blended.
5. Bake until the tops are firm and cracked but the chocolate beneath is hot and gooey about 15-18 minutes at 180deg.
6. Serve hot with ice-cream.
Strawberries - Known to be brilliant as it benefits the skin in more than one way. This accessory fruit is known to be rich in coenzyme Q10, a substance that helps fight free radical damage, and lessens the pace of aging, increases both the adeptness and rate of cellular energy production. Quite high in alpha-hydroxyl acid, this fruit helps get rid of dead skin cells and helps the body build collagen. Another great thing about strawberries, it's highly concentrated with vitamin C, an essential antioxidant that helps prevent skin blemishes, fights the aging process and the harmful effects of the sun.
1. Preheat the oven to 160 deg.
2. Combine the oats, almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, and pecans in a very large bowl. Mix the allspice, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and 1 teaspoon fine salt together in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the oat mixture and mix. Whisk the oil and honey together in a medium bowl, drizzle over the oat mixture, and mix again.
3. Divide the oat mixture between two baking trays and spread out evenly. Bake, stirring occasionally halfway through baking, until the granola is fragrant and just beginning to toast, this should take about 30 minutes.
4. Remove from the oven. Divide the raisins, coconut, and cranberries equally between the baking sheets and stir to combine. Let cool completely.
- The granola can be stored in airtight containers at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
- The beauty of making granola at home is personalising it to your taste. If you don't like coconut, leave it out. Or substitute cashews for the walnuts, and other dried fruits, such as chopped apricots or dates, for the raisins.
- The granola is very good layered with fresh berries and plain yogurt.


Online Gambling firm 888 Holdings is making a run at buying Bwin.Party Digital Entertainment, the Gibraltar-based online gambling company. There are reports that Amaya, the world's biggest publicly-traded online gambling company, is joining tiny GVC Holdings to try to buy and carve up Bwin.Party. Playtech, the gambling software developer, has not emerged as a potential bidder, but has shown interest in Bwin.Party in the past.
The sale of Bwin.Party may still not happen, but negotiations for the company have reached their most serious stage since activist hedge fund manager Jason Ader's SpringOwl Asset Management struck a deal with Bwin.Party last year that seemed to put the company in play. The details of the bids have not been disclosed and remain murky.
A deal for Bwin.Party would be a big moment in the online gambling industry. Bwin.Party was formed in 2011, combining Bwin's sports betting business and PartyGaming's online casino and online poker offerings. Before it chose to leave the U.S. market in 2006, PartyGaming was the most valuable online gambling company in the world.
What makes Bwin.Party valuable to other online gambling companies today, however, is its big sports betting business. Billionaire Denise Coates' Bet365 is the world's biggest online sports betting company, but Bwin's sports betting business is one of the next largest. Bwin's sport betting business in Europe might be bigger than Bet365.
Amaya, 888 and Playtech have been working on becoming big online sports betting players. For any online gambling company looking for a sports betting business, buying Bwin would be the quickest way to do it.
Amaya reportedly is bidding with GVC by creating a special purpose vehicle controlled by GVC that would hold the bulk of Bwin.Party's assets. There is precedent for such a partnership. GVC, which focuses on so-called gray markets, teamed up with British bookmaker William Hill in 2013 to buy Sportingbet for $850 million. William Hill took Sportingbet's online gambling operations in Australia and Spain; GVC took Sportingbet's business in unregulated markets.
Bwin.Party is scheduled to host its annual shareholders meeting in Gibraltar on Thursday.

SmackDown Roster Is Snubbed On The Official SummerSlam Poster
Image via wwe.com
"The Biggest Party of the Summer" is right around the corner and is set to stream live from The Barclays Center in Brooklyn New York on August 19th, ahead of the show, WWE has finally released the poster for the event. Shockingly, the official promotional material only features the two biggest matches from Monday Night RAW, with Alexa Bliss, Ronda Rousey, Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar the only faces on the poster, which means that SmackDown once again hasn't been given a place.
Whilst it's easy to see why WWE would favor these two matches over what is set to be a stacked card, this shows that Monday Night RAW is and will always be WWE's most dominant brand.
There was talk online about WWE's ability to belittle the SmackDown brand after AJ Styles has failed to main event a pay-per-view since before WrestleMania, and now the WWE Champion and his new challenger Samoa Joe haven't even been featured on the official poster for the event.
Here is the official #SummerSlam poster featuring Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, Ronda Rousey and Alexa Bliss. #SmackDown got snubbed pretty bad
A post shared by Wrestling Inc. (@wrestlinginc) on Jul 24, 2018 at 9:40pm PDT
Is this more confirmation that Vince McMahon only sees SmackDown as the B-Show? SummerSlam is usually the pay-per-view that includes many faces on the poster, but it's obvious that there are only two matches that the company want to concentrate on heading into next month's pay-per-view which means that despite AJ Styles holding the WWE Championship around his waist, he still won't be one of the main events on the night.
His match with Samoa Joe was officially announced last night on SmackDown Live when The Samoan Submission Machine attacked him from behind as part of the announcement made by General Manager Paige, but it appears that this wasn't enough to warrant the two being given a place on the official poster.

Lightning forward Pat Maroon (14) signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning before the 2019-20 season. He will return to St. Louis for the first time since winning the Stanley Cup. (Photo courtesy: Dirk Shadd, Tampa Bay Times)
Blues/Lightning: Enterprise Center, 7pm CT – NBCSN, ESPN 101.1
The St. Louis Blues (12-4-5) are set for an emotional night as "hometown hero" Pat Maroon returns to his former squad for the first time with the Tampa Bay Lightning (9-6-2). Maroon scored the double-overtime series winner in the second round against Dallas last year, but did not re-sign with St. Louis after winning the Stanley Cup.
The Blues dropped their third straight in an uninspiring 4-1 home loss to Anaheim last Saturday. "(We need to) generate some five-on-five scoring," coach Craig Berube told the Post-Dispatch. "It's been down and we've got to generate more." The Blues, despite the 0-1-2 record in their last three games, still maintain the best record in the Central Division.
Tampa Bay, after finishing the regular season tied for the most points in NHL history, are off to a very slow start at 9-6-2, recently losing 4-3 to Winnipeg. The Bolts are 0-2-1 against Western Conference opponents and are looking for something to surge their play.
"Everything goes in the other night against New York and I thought we had some good quality chances," captain Steven Stamkos said. "The start was slow, but I didn't think it was that poor. Obviously, the urgency picked up at the end when we were down, but maybe a case of too little, too late."
The Blues and Lightning face off for the first of two meetings tonight, and will play again in Tampa just 9 days after. The Blues and Bolts are on national TV tonight at 7pm, on NBCSN and Fox Sports Midwest.
Offensive Overhaul
After a sloppy three losses, with the 1-4 exclamation point, Berube held practice on Monday with some brand-new line pairings. Robert Thomas swapped with Tyler Bozak from top winger to 3rd-line center. Sammy Blais shifted back to his second line spot with Ryan O'Reilly and David Perron.
Even Oskar Sundqvist moved from the bottom line of Ivan Barbashev and Mackenzie MacEachern, which has arguably been the most successful line in the last few contests. All of these changes were made with the hopes of getting more pucks in net for St. Louis, as they sit 28th in 5-on-5 scoring and 30th in expected goals-for.
"We can hit the net more, bear down a little bit more in those areas. It sounds like a little thing, but it becomes a big thing," Berube commented about the line changes. "The chances are there and we have to do a better job of hitting the net and executing a little bit better there… It's not about shot attempts. You've got to shoot the puck, and we all get that, but the quality of the shots is the most important thing."
Brayden Schenn, who joins Schwartz and Bozak as an all-Saskatchewan line tonight, is excited for the chemistry they could generate. "Why not?" Schenn asked Tom Timmerman. "We've got the 'Sasky' boys together. 'Bozie' being a very good two-way forward, a good centerman, I play a little of both too; I think we'll read off each other. I've done a little of a hybrid center and whoever is low plays low and we'll both take faceoffs and see if we can get something going here."
"Big Rig's" Big Return
After winning the Stanley Cup with St. Louis, Pat Maroon will return to the ice at Enterprise for the first time since last season. After parting ways with the Blues as a free agent, Maroon signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning for a one-year, $900,000 contract. The results are already positive: the St. Louis native already has 4 goals and seven points in 15 games with the Bolts. Now, donning the "14" for his new club, an emotional return to St. Louis expected for the "Big Rig".
"It's definitely going to be an emotional night," Tyler Bozak told the Post-Dispatch. "He was a huge part of what we did last year and being from here, with a lot of family and a place that means so much to him and such a well-liked guy in our room that everyone gets along with really well and everyone stays in touch with, I know we're all excited to see him."
"He was a very well-liked guy in our locker room, he still talks to a lot of guys through text messages," Schenn added. "He's close with a lot of guys and him being a hometown kid and scoring one of the biggest goals in St. Louis history, the crowd's going to give him a good ovation. Once it's all said and done and he gets his ovation and waves at the crowd, he's going to be old Pat Maroon and he's going to be having fun out there, chirping guys, laughing, playing hard like he always does."
Pat Maroon will be awarded his championship ring by Doug Armstrong before tonight's opening faceoff.
David Perron played his 800th NHL game and 500th as a Blue last Saturday.
Klim Kostin, who made his NHL debut last Saturday, played for 11:45 and is expected to play tonight in place of de la Rose.
Oskar Sundqvist was fined the maximum $7,397 for charging goaltender John Gibson on Saturday.
The Blues and Lightning face off tonight on NBCSN and FSMW at 8pm ET. The game will also be broadcasted on the radio side on ESPN 101.1 FM.
