Dr. Dau and Janet are the most professional, caring, and patient practitioners I've ever worked with in any field of medicine! Dr. Dau was not only efficient and helpful with me, but he was also AMAZING with my 5 yr old daughter! Please do yourself a favor and see Dr. Dau if you need an eye doctor, or if you're looking to switch due to being unsatisfied. You will be so happy you did! Thank you Dr. Dau, we will now look forward to all of our eye appointments!
I absolutely adore Janet and Dr.Dau!My eyes have been bothering me for a few days and they immediately got me in to be seen. None of the over the counter medicine was working and Dr. Dau prescribed something that immediately provided me relief. Thank you for professionalism and world class service..
Wonderful experience! Dr. Jordan Dau and Janet are absolutely amazing. Appointments are easy to schedule and you will be seen on time! The office space is modern and clean. They also have a great selection of frames (sunglasses too). If anyone needs a new eye doctor, please be sure to check out Dau Family Eye Care!
I really like how thorough the eye exam was with Dr. Dau and he even took pictures of the hole in my eye, which was pretty impressive.
The office is brand new, but they are providing great care for the patients. Janet, the front desk lady was very friendly and welcomed. She checked with my insurance to make sure that my eye exam was covered. Although I wish I'd knew that the contact lens fitting was additional, but I'm glad I found the ones that fit my eyes properly.
They have a large selection of frames and sunglasses to choose from. The place is very clean, open and neatly decorated. If you're in the area, definitely check them out.
I decided to have my annual eye exam here as it was right next to bay n bee and my friend recommended. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and tried hard to find answers to all of my questions related to my eye insurance :) Dr. Dau thoroughly examined my eyes and explained the results well. It is a small office but there are good selections of glasses and staff is great. I had a great experience and highly recommend here!
Since I was 12 years old and started wearing glasses I have been going to the eye doctor every year. In January 2017, I visited Dr. Dau for the first time. (At his previous location.) Dr. Dau did the same thing every eye doctor did before, dilated my eyes, vision test etc. But Dr. Dau did something different, he was able to catch that I had holes in my retina. Dr. Dau referred me over to a retina specialist. The retina specialist told me not only did I have macula holes, my retina was becoming partially detached. The retina specialist went on to explain that due to the size of the holes it was pretty sure I've had them since high school (I am 24 now so quite a while and many other eye doctors)! Thanks to Dr. Dau for not only being a great optometrist but literally saving my eye sight! Every six months when I go to my retina specialist he tells me how lucky I am that Dr. Dau caught it!
They are super friendly. I recommend Dau Family Eye Care to all ages. My 12 year old was very happy with the service and selection of frames.
Ok, so this is for my mom; but based on this recommendation, I will be checking them out too! My mom is constantly having issues with her glasses either the prescription isnt right or the glasses themselves dont fit. I have never known her to say anything positive about her glasses and vision - that changed after seeing Dr.Dau.
Dau Family Eye Care is on the edge of my neighborhood, we already have an eye care specialist so I really didnt pay them any attention. When the arm of my momseye glasses broke off, she stopped in there to see if they could help her, they did, even though she isnt a client, and they didnt charge her. She was impressed (so was I!).
She went back to her regular eye doctor to order new frames and she left feeling very unsatisfied so she went to see Dr.Dau. That was a week or so ago, she came back raving about him. Today she went to pick up her glasses and this is where the real shocker comes in, she said, and I quote: "My glasses are perfect for me. I dont think I have ever had glasses as good as this." When I asked her why they were so perfect, she said, "I can see near. I can see far. Without having to take my glasses off! Its the first time in a long time my vision isnt driving me crazy." Wow! Thats a great testimonial. Especially as I am aging...my vision really is driving me batty. I am constantly taking off and putting on my glasses all day...I might have to make an appointment myself.
Great job, Dr.Dau, on impressing the seemingly un-impressable.
Gorgeous practice with great staff. Janet is so welcoming and helpful. Thank you !
Wonderful new practice. Dr Dau is fantastic!
Our pediatric dentist, Bright Smiles, was having their 1st birthday celebration back in Dec 2017 and they had vendors of the area showcased along with fun treats. Dr. Dau was setting up his table when we were walking by and we were one of the 1st to visit. Dr. Dau had a giveaway at his table and we decided to grab info about his newly opened eye center which is in the same plaza as Bay & Bee, Bright Smiles, and Bella Pizza - our most visited places as we are supportive patrons. I was able to grab an appointment slot while at the event.
When I got to my appointment I was amazed at the new clinic. Very immaculate, clean, and modern decor. Staff members are very kind and helpful. No wait and was seen by Dr. Jordan Dau when I came in. They have all new equipment and very efficient with the eye appointment. I used to dread the eye doctor appointments but Dr. Dau made my visit wonderful. I was impressed by the professionalism and especially the advanced equipment (no eye puff in your eyes!).
The staff was also able to provide me a rebate form for my year supply of contacts and i also used my gift certificate Dr. Dau gave me. Lead time to get the contacts was less than 4 days and you get a text and email that it's in to pick up, very efficient!
They take most insurance plans (I have VSP), so check with your insurance. Their hours are great for working parents or people in general who work M-F and 8am-5pm. They stay open late certain days until 630pm and open on Saturdays! Rare to get appointments anywhere on the weekend especially if you work.

Home Entertainment (WBHE) releases Castle Rock: The Complete Second Season, on Blu-ray™ and DVD May 19, 2020. The release of the second season of Warner Bros. Television's critically acclaimed series will feature all 10 episodes, plus all-new bonus content.

Stephen King's multiverse, Castle Rock, is a place which combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of the best-selling author's best-loved works. In season two, a feud between warring clans comes to a boil when budding psychopath Annie Wilkes (Lizzie Caplan, Masters of Sex), Stephen King's nurse from hell, gets waylaid in the small town of Castle Rock. Local businessman Reginald "Pop" Merrill (played by Academy® Award-winning actor Tim Robbins – Mystic River) is dragged into the fight, when Pop's nephew, legendary bully John "Ace" Merrill (Paul Sparks, House of Cards), stirs up trouble. It's another eerily unforgettable season of Castle Rock, as the mysterious town's ongoing epic saga continues to unfold.
Season two of Castle Rock also stars Barkhad Abdi (Captain Phillips) as Abdi Howlwadaag, Yusra Warsama as Dr. Nadia Howlwadaag, Elsie Fisher (Eighth Grade) as Joy and Matthew Alan as Chris Merrill (Snowfall, 13 Reasons Why).
"Author Stephen King has given us such an abundance of iconic characters and extraordinary stories. Castle Rock is a celebration of his remarkable literary accomplishments. Whether you
know King's work or have never read any of his stories, Castle Rock will keep you at the edge of your seat from start to finish," said Rosemary Markson, WBHE Senior Vice President, TV Marketing. She added, "The series is beautifully shot, with high production values and superb acting performances. It's a series you won't want to miss."
From Stephen King (Mr. Mercedes, It, 11.22.63) and J.J. Abrams (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Westworld, 11.22.63), Castle Rock is a psychological-horror series set in the Stephen King multiverse. Castle Rock, which first premiered on Hulu, combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of Stephen King's best loved works, while weaving an epic saga of darkness and light that's played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland. The fictional Maine town of Castle Rock has figured prominently in King's literary career: Cujo, The Dark Half, IT and Needful Things, as well as novella The Body and numerous short stories (Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption) are set there. Castle Rock is an original suspense/thriller – a first-of-its-kind reimagining that unites King's themes and worlds, and brings together the author's most iconic and beloved characters.
Based on characters and situations created by Stephen King, Castle Rock was developed for television by Sam Shaw (Manhattan, Masters of Sex) and Dustin Thomason (Manhattan, Lie to Me) who serve as executive producers along with J.J. Abrams, Stephen King, Ben Stephenson (Westworld), Greg Yaitanes (The Twilight Zone), Vince Calandra and Liz Glotzer. The series is from Bad Robot Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.
Stephen King is one of the world's most prolific authors, having published over 50 books in an illustrious career that spans more than 40 years. His works have been adapted for theatrical motion pictures and television more than 50 times.

Date stone beetle
The date stone beetle or button beetle, Coccotrypes dactyliperda, is an insect belonging to the bark beetles (Scolytinae). It feeds on and spends part of its life cycle in dates, the fruits of the date palm (Phoenix dactylifera). Because of its damage to dates, it is considered a pest.
Phylum:
Scolytini
Coccotrypes
C. dactyliperda
Coccotrypes dactyliperda
Fabricius, 1801
Adults of the species are reddish-brown and 1.8–2.3 mm (0.07–0.09 in) long, with a convex shape and hairs on the dorsal surface.[1] Characteristic of beetles, they have four wings, with the pair of hardened forewings protecting the pair of hindwings used for flying. They chew a round hole into green unripe dates, causing the fruit to drop 1 or 2 days later.[2]
Eggs (arrow) in a date stone
The species uses the haplodiploid sex-determination system: females are diploid while males are haploid; unmated females produce male offspring by parthenogenesis while mated females produce both male and female offspring. Both in beetles from collected date stones and in laboratory cultures, about 85–93% of the adults are females.[2]
When a flying unfertilized female reaches a target such as a date stone, sweet almond, betel nut, nutmeg, cinnamon bark[3] or a button made from vegetable ivory, hence the name "button beetle"), she bores a hole in it and excavates a chamber. (Males cannot penetrate the stone.[2]) Inside, she produces a brood of four or five males. She mates with the first son that reaches maturity, then proceeds to eat them all. She then enlarges the chamber and lays a brood of about 70 offspring. Some of the females mate with their brothers.[4][5]
It takes about 22–25 days for an egg to develop through a larva and pupa into an adult, with males developing faster than females. Mated females live on average 73 days while unmated ones live on average 63 days.[2]

One of the major drug issues on the rise in Pennsylvania today is the illegal possession and distribution of prescription drugs. These drugs are usually in Pennsylvania's Drug Schedules III, IV & V, though some prescription drugs are in Schedule II.
Proponents of the War on Drugs are aware of this increase and are cracking down hard on drug charges involving prescription drugs in Philadelphia. Whether you are a victim of addiction or falsely accused of a Pennsylvania prescription drug charge by an overzealous law enforcement officer, it is important to secure the services of an experienced Philadelphia drug defense lawyer as soon as possible following the first signs of investigation or an arrest.
Joseph Lento of Lento Law Firm has years of experience defending individuals accused of illegal drug possession. He is committed to a high level of customer service, determination and perseverance with his criminal defense clients when they need it the most.
If you have been charged with illegal prescription drug possession or a prescription drug trafficking offense in Philadelphia, contact the attorneys of Lento Law Firm. We will fight for your rights and examine your case in detail for mitigating factors, resulting in a defense well-suited specifically for your case. Your first consultation is free, so call (215) 535-5353 today.
The most common prescription drugs involved in Philadelphia drug charges generally start as having a medical purpose of easing pain, treating ADHD, or neutralizing anxiety. Patients then become addicted and need more and more pills to achieve the desired effect, even after the legal prescription is gone.
The illegal possession of prescription drugs is defined with the rest of Pennsylvania's controlled substances in the Pennsylvania Controlled Substances, Drugs, Device, and Cosmetic Act, which is 35 P.S. §§ 780-101 – 780-144. There is no separate classification for prescription drugs, though there are separate penalties for specific drugs that have an occasional medical use.
Illegal possession of a narcotic Schedule II prescription substance or gamma hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), which has a limited medical application to start with, is a felony punishable up to 15 years and a $250,000 fine. If you are charged with any illegal possession of prescription drug offense, contact an experienced Philadelphia controlled substance possession defense lawyer immediately. He may be able to find mitigating factors to help your case, such as actual or constructive possession charges or a valid prescription.
The term deliver is defined in the Pennsylvania Controlled Substances, Drugs, Device, and Cosmetic Act as the actual, constructed, or attempted transfer of a controlled substance from one person to another. The definition does not specify profit or nonprofit, so a PWID charge could occur if intent to sell was present, or if intent to share was present.
Because a PWID charge is a separate offense from possession, an overzealous prosecutor passionate about the War on Drugs may try to bring PWID even if there is not sufficient evidence. An experienced Philadelphia drug defense attorney can spot this strategy and fight for your rights while bringing the cracks in the prosecutor's case to light.
Drug trafficking is generally defined as the illegal sale or transfer of a controlled substance from one person to another. This term can apply both to an individual sale and to the drug trade as a whole. Whether you have been accused of one personal sale, participation in a Philadelphia drug ring, or other involvement in the big picture of drug trade in Pennsylvania, drug trafficking is the offense you will be charged with.
Whether you were in the wrong place at the wrong time or suffer from an addiction to prescription medication that originated in a legal prescription, it is important to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney to fight the Pennsylvania prescription drugs against you.
Joseph Lento will work closely with you to find mitigating factors that may get your case reduced or dismissed, or bring you a brighter future through helping you apply for Pennsylvania's Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition program. To find out what Lento Law Firm can do for your prescription drug case, call (215) 535-5353 to schedule your free consultation today.

Q: How to show and hide side menu in angular2 In my application i have to implement hide and show side menu. By default the page menu is open while clicking the toggle menu i have to hide the side menu. How can i implement this.
what i have is:
app.component.html, nav.component.html

        Name

Myservice.ts
export class GlobalService {
public collapse;

constructor() { }

setValue(val: boolean) {
    this.collapse = val;
}

getValue() {
    return this.collapse;
}

EDIT
app.component.html

app.component.ts
import { GlobalService } from "path";

export class AppComponent {
toggle() {
this.globalService.setValue(false);

 }
}

how can i hide this list(in nav.html) while clicking menu toggle (app.compnent.html)? Any help will really appreciable. i am new to angular.

A: If use of service is not the priority then you can simply maintain simple variable to do this task.
Your app.component.ts

    export class AppComponent {
      showMenu : boolean = true;
    }

Your app.component.html

            Name

hope this helps ...

A: For this ,

*

*You can make a CommonService to store the state of menu or and use that Service to make toggle you menu.

*You can also use @Input @Output , in case you are having parent child relation between components.
Method will depend on how is your project/file structure.

A: You can create a service and preferably make a static variable inside to get and set the visibility state of the menu. By this you could directly set and get the variable by using ComponentName.variableName.
to play with the visibility you could use(Sorry if there is any syntax errors)
1> Set the document.getelementbyid("idofelement").display= none or block

The Pluralist
The Relevance of Addams's Democracy and Social Ethics
Scott L. Pratt
marilyn fischer's book Jane Addams's Evolutionary Theorizing sets a new standard for reading the central works of American philosophy. By situating Addams's Democracy and Social Ethics in the context of late nineteenth-century evolutionary theory, the text takes on meanings different from some that have become canonical. Context, in this case, is not simply historical context, but also the intellectual context in which Addams's work was written and read. Fischer argues that the meanings of terms such as "evolution," "democracy," "sympathy," and "social ethics" cannot be taken at today's face value, but rather must be understood in light of the ideas and theories with which they were associated in Addams's day—what Fischer calls, following William James in Principles of Psychology, their "penumbra of associations" (Fischer 3). Addams's reasoning, Fischer seeks to demonstrate, follows the connections familiar at the time and, once these connections among ideas are clear, Addams's ideas of democracy and social ethics "take on deeper meanings, while being transformed in sometimes jarring ways" (Fischer 3).
While many scholars simply "ignore Addams's occasional references to evolutionary thought or pass them off as instances of outdated vocabulary," Fischer argues that "if one wants to claim that Addams was an intellectual, then one needs to explore the full range of intellectual resources with which she in fact engaged" (9). Fischer's reading of Addams consequently engages a full range of intellectual resources available to Addams and identified (usually indirectly) in her texts. As a result, "[w]hile Addams in this study may seem distant and strange," once one understands her terms in their context, "she also emerges as a creative and sophisticated theorist and literary artist, working with her era's full panoply of intellectual resources" (Fischer 10).
While Fischer's method is a powerful tool, it also raises some important questions both for Addams's philosophy and for the American philosophical [End Page 128] tradition in general. The key question I want to raise is about the status of the theories offered by Addams and the implications of using Addams's work to address the pressing social problems of today. This question is not limited to Addams; the relation of any philosopher to the received views of their day is at once key to understanding their work, and potentially problematic when it comes to adopting those insights for new action in a different day. Aristotle's physics, Descartes's theology, John Locke's investments, and Heidegger's politics all occasion the same worry. To what extent do these philosophies depend on theories and assumptions of the day, and to what extent do these assumptions determine what we can (and cannot) do with these philosophies in our present world?
The problem is heightened in the case of Jane Addams. Fischer writes: "Addams and her fellow pragmatists think of theories as tools. Theories do not represent the structure of the world as it really is; they do not mirror reality. They give patterns of thought helpful for critique and with which to suggest new hypotheses and imagine potential resolutions" (99). Pragmatist theories from Fischer's perspective are, at their best, tools, "ways of thinking," meant to bring about social change by changing "her readers' moral sensibilities and stretch[ing] their moral imaginations" (11) and are not meant to give an account of how the world "really is." Philosophies born of the theories of the day produce tools whose value is in relation to the results one seeks to obtain. If a philosophy, as a guideline for action, is unmoored from the world and framed entirely by its end-in-view, its origins and implications beyond its present use can easily drop from sight.
Fischer's reading of Addams's work (in this case, Addams's 1902 Democracy and Social Ethics) within the intellectual discourse of the day raises, as Fischer observes, "troubling questions." She continues: "The historiography the discourse assumed and the science it relied on are now outdated. Most of the theorists who worked within the paradigm are ignored today and with good reason. The voices we remember most...

Bomb threats called into multiple Ivy League universities
By Victoria Albert
Updated on: November 7, 2021 / 7:49 PM / CBS News
Brown, Cornell and Columbia University evacuated parts of their campuses on Sunday after receiving bomb threats, just days after another bomb threat was reported at Yale University. It is not clear if the threats are connected, and no suspect has been publicly connected to any of the calls, which were all later deemed to be false threats.
Columbia said it issued "a campus-wide emergency alert" after receiving threats to school buildings. The New York City school warned students to avoid the area while police investigate, but later said the threat was deemed "not credible" and it was safe to return.
Officials at Brown, which is located in Rhode Island, confirmed to CBS News that the school had also received a bomb threat on Sunday, and "evacuated several buildings near the university's college green." A spokesman for the school later issued an all clear, and said buildings that had been evacuated are now reopened.
Cornell, which is located in upstate New York, issued a similar statement, reporting that police "received a call of bombs being placed" in multiple buildings, including the law school. Hours later, the school said "no credible threats were found."
In a statement later Sunday night, the school's vice president of university relations said that just before 2 p.m., 911 dispatchers received an anonymous call from someone who said they were in campus buildings with automatic weapons and had already put explosives in other buildings.
"We are relieved to report that this threat appears to have been a hoax," the statement said. "A cruel hoax; but, thankfully, just a hoax. The University has now resumed its normal operations."
The statement said it was aware of the bomb threats made at other schools, and "will work closely with local, state, and federal investigators pursuing links among these threats of campus violence."
The news comes after multiple bomb threats were called into Yale on Friday, according to CBS New York. Police responded to the scene and gave students the all-clear to return later Friday evening.

oint-and-click adventure is a genre which pretty much fell off the PC radar towards the end of the 90s. Despite the past successes of developers like Sierra Entertainment and LucasArts, players were quickly being swept away by flashier 3D experiences — some might say that the industry lost its innocence when King's Quest gave way to Doom. Whatever one's take, point-and-click gaming has had a bit of a resurgence as of late thanks to episodic release formats, in particular the work of developer Telltale Games. Their latest endeavor, Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, expertly straddles the line between nostalgic adventuring and modern-day fun.
Someone had too much fun.For those unfamiliar with this distinctly British franchise, Wallace is a charming (yet witless) inventor and Gromit is his brilliant (and patient) canine pal. Their adventures have spanned numerous short films and a 2005 theatrical release. These claymation productions, all helmed by director Nick Park, possess a visual styling and attention to detail that's hard to overlook. Viewers of all ages will find something to enjoy in the Park films, and much the same can be said for Telltale's Grand Adventures.
This is Wallace & Gromit, all right.From the moment one fires up Fright of the Bumblebees, the first of Telltale Game's four episodic releases, the experience is distinctly Wallace & Gromit. From soundtrack to visuals, it would be easy to mistake these games for one of Nick Park's productions — character models appear to be sculpted from clay, their movements and expressions spot on. From a production standpoint, my only criticism is that Wallace isn't voiced by Peter Sallis. Ben Whitehead, who lent his talents to past Park projects, does an outstanding job voicing the role, but longtime fans will definitely notice the change. Otherwise, nothing seems out of place. Garden gnomes are present and accounted for, the cupboards are stocked full of cheese and crackers — this is Wallace & Gromit, all right.
In terms of gameplay, Grand Adventures is a classic point-and-click adventure with a modern twist. Traditional object gathering and puzzle solving are complemented by full 3-D movement courtesy of keyboard controls. Navigating the game's environments is simple enough, though occasionally things are made a bit more difficult by awkward camera angles. Still, this is by no means a deal breaker — overall, Telltale exercised a great deal of common sense in positioning the camera, even when they chose to emphasize the "cinematic" over the "functional."
Once again: too much fun.As for the puzzles themselves, these could sort of be a mixed bag. As with any adventure game, what seemed perfectly sensible to a developer could prove a flummoxing conundrum to the average player. Particularly for those with little exposure to the point-and-click genre, it may take a bit of acclimation to start thinking in the same manner as the staff at Telltale. Still, once you remember to leave no icon un-clicked, things begin to move along at a healthy clip. All told, Fright of the Bumblebees clocks in at around four hours. Not much, perhaps, but at $10 an episode, Grand Adventures seems fairly priced.
Telltale has already delivered the first two episodes of Grand Adventures. Fright of the Bumblebees highlights a scheme to pay for a bit of property damage (don't ask) by producing copious amounts of honey. The Last Resort tells the tale of a rained-out holiday, a makeshift basement getaway and some dissatisfied customers. Like everything that's ever borne the Wallace & Gromit moniker, both are good clean fun that even the most hardened heart will appreciate. Revolutionary games? Perhaps not, but great entertainment and a testament to the episodic release model. Kudos to Telltale Games for bringing new life to an outstanding franchise (and an almost forgotten genre).

Military experts say a U.S. troop withdrawal complicates conditions on the ground

"It's time to leave Afghanistan."
That's what the Pentagon's new acting leader, Chris Miller, wrote in a two-page memo to Defense Department staff on Nov. 13.
Miller went on to add: "We are not a people of perpetual war — it is the antithesis of everything for which we stand and for which our ancestors fought. All wars must end."
Four days later, Miller announced a major troop withdrawal from Afghanistan, Iraq, and Somalia: "By Jan. 15, 2021, our forces, their size in Afghanistan will be 2,500 troops. Our force size in Iraq will also be 2,500 by that same date."
There are currently about 4,500 troops in Afghanistan and 3,000 in Iraq. The administration also aims to pull out all 700 service members currently fighting in Somalia.
The news from Washington broke late at night for people in Afghanistan and Iraq, and many learned the next morning.
And while some say it's time for American troops to come home, Miller's announcement has been met with plenty of skepticism. Many U.S. military experts worry a hasty and uncoordinated troop withdrawal would leave local forces in a dangerous position in both Afghanistan and Iraq, where Americans help train and assist them. And some critics say that the move is political — and seems to have more to do with President Donald Trump's legacy than concern for Americans.
Javid Faisal, an adviser to Afghanistan's National Security Council, said the news wasn't a complete surprise since the Trump administration had already made remarks about pulling out American troops. Faisal said that the Afghan national defense and security forces have been defending the country since 2014 on their own.
"They are able to do it in the future, but they will need the support of the international community," he said, "for financial, training, and advising."
"The withdrawal should be a very responsible one to make sure that any decision that's being taken in this regard does not reverse us. Does not take us back to where we were 20 years ago, when there was al-Qaeda, when there was other insurgent groups," he added.
Many share this concern.
"It will be much harder to provide advice and training to Iraqi forces, which is the primary role that's going on right now," said David M. Witty, a retired U.S. Army colonel who served in Iraq, including after a major troop withdrawal by the Obama administration in 2011.
U.S. forces help the Iraqis fight ISIS, and they limit Iran's influence in Iraq, he said.
"The problem would be, you would basically be turning Iraq over to Iran. There's no other way to put it," Witty said.
Iran has created and supported a web of powerful militias in Iraq. A drawdown of U.S. forces would mean these militias could have more of a free hand in the country.
Meanwhile, the U.S. troop withdrawal in Afghanistan was to be conditional.
Last February, the Trump administration signed an agreement with the Taliban. The U.S. agreed to pull troops out in phases and only if the group met a series of conditions: that the Taliban reduces its violence, sits down with the representatives of the Afghan government, and cuts ties with al-Qaeda.
Retired U.S. Army Gen. David Petraeus told The World that there is no indication that the Taliban has met any of these conditions.
"This [troop withdrawal] frankly undermines the efforts at the negotiating table because you're essentially giving the Taliban what they really want, having already pressured the Afghan government to release some 5,000 or so Taliban detainees," Petraeus said.
Petraeus added that a reduction of forces should always be conditions-based. His concern is that after the U.S. leaves, the Afghan security forces will no longer be able to maintain the security for major routes and cities.
Violence in Afghanistan increased as much as 50 percent in recent months as the Taliban was taking part in peace talks. In its quarterly report to the U.S. Congress, the U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) said there were at least 2,561 civilian casualties this quarter, including 876 deaths, up 43 percent from the April to June period.
Michael Kugelman, senior associate for South Asia at the Wilson Center in Washington, said that the Taliban wants to have complete power — and that it will have that opportunity if it just waits out the United States and focuses entirely on the fight.
Kugelman and other experts told The World that they sympathize with Americans who are weary of war and with families who have loved ones serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"I think it's time to bring all troops home," Kugelman said, "but this is really the last opportunity you have to try to kickstart an admittedly fragile, but nonetheless, existent peace process, and yet you're whittling away your last elements of leverage by pulling all of these troops very suddenly without the Taliban having done anything first."
Can the U.S. send additional troops back to Afghanistan if needed?
Jonathan Schroden, director for the Center for Stability and Development at the CNA Corporation and a longtime military analyst, said it could get complicated.
"[The U.S.] would have to get the approval of the Afghan government in order to do that. The current Afghan government, I think, would agree to that type of arrangement, but I wouldn't want to presume that the U.S. could just do that because it's not a unilateral decision," he said.
Schroden said troop withdrawals take time. Flying personnel out of the country can be done quickly, but winding down big military bases is a different undertaking.
"If they were going to zero, I would say it would be a logistical nightmare to do that by January," he said, "to go to 2,500 is still going to be challenging because they're going to have to close a number of fairly sizable military installations."
Ultimately, Trump's decision to bring troops home, Kugelman, at the Wilson Center, said, is based on political goals. The election might be over, but the president is still thinking about his legacy.
"He wants to be remembered as the president who brought as many troops home," Kugelman said.
"But when we hear all this talk here in Washington about ending the war, it's important to remember that by bringing U.S. troops home, we're not ending the war. War may be ending for the U.S., but it's not going to end for the Afghans."

Q: AWS: specify Lambda version for Cognito trigger I have a Cognito User Pool and corresponding a Identity pool.
I want to call a specific version of my Lambda function on Post authentication or some other trigger like that.
I don't see an option to specify a version code in the Console although the examples all have a version number.
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/cognito-user-identity-pools-working-with-aws-lambda-triggers.html
{
    "version": number,
    "triggerSource": "string",
    "region": AWSRegion,
    "userPoolId": "string",
    ...
}

How do I specify the version of the lambda function?

A: Cognito, always uses the latest version or whatever is the default version provided by lambda.
The version that you are referring in the documentation is the event version number. In case in the future Cognito introduces a breaking change to the format of the request you can protect your code from breaking by checking this version number.

A: Actually it is possible updating user pool trigger configuration with AWS CLI using Lambda arn that includes alias, like
aws cognito-idp update-user-pool --user-pool-id _awsregion_id_ --lambda-config PostAuthentication=arn:aws:lambda:_awsregion_:_awsid_:function:_functionname_:_alias_


We can combine our particularly good understanding of connected subsets in the real line with Theorem 5.22. On the face of it, all this says is that the continuous image of an interval is also an interval---cute, but perhaps not very useful.
However, if we combine this with the defining property of an interval, we obtain an extremely useful theorem indeed: the Intermediate Value Theorem.
We start by proving the theorem, and the remainder of the chapter will be taken up with two applications of this theorem: a quick construction of the logarithmic functions, and a method for calculating roots of equations.
Of course, if f(a) is greater than f(b) then an analogous result with f(a) > y0 > f(b) holds.
In Homework 6 we constructed the logarithm base a and derived some of its properties.
If we look at what was being asked in the homework assignment, we can see that what the first two questions establish is that the exponential function f(x)=ax is invertible.
The method used was to pull a formula for the inverse, g(x), out of thin air (and a pretty unfriendly formula to work with it was too) and then verify that it had the right properties. In fact, Question 2(a) does no more or less than to ask you to show that g(f(x))=x, and Question 2(b) asks you to prove that f(g(x))=x. Taken together these two facts are exactly what is needed to conclude that f(x) is invertible and that g(x) is its inverse.
The last part of Question 2 establishes the familar properties of the logarithm. But if you look at Homework 6 you'll see that the proof uses no properties of the logarithm other than the fact that the logarithm is the inverse of the exponential function, coupled with some properties of the exponential function.
In this section we shall show that the exponential function is invertible, in a much quicker way. Our proof will demonstrate the use of the Intermediate Value Theorem for showing that functions map onto the reals or some other useful set.
The method of bisection is a very simple and effective means of estimating the roots of equations. Unlike other methods for finding roots, which may be faster, this is the only method which is guaranteed to work for all continuous functions.
The theoretical underpinning of the method of bisection is the Intermediate Value Theorem. This tells us that if we know that a function is positive at one point, and negative at another, then a root of the function (a point at which it is zero) must lie between these two points.
As an example of how to use this algorithm, we shall approximate the square root of 2 to within 0.1.


We have relocated our Design and Development function and our servicing centre to Wrexham.
Following an extensive search for a suitable site to house our fastest growing functions, we have hit the jackpot with Wrexham.
Although our other location in Oswestry continues to house our assembly and some testing facilities, we brought the growing functions to North Wales. This move is helping us find the right people and services which is needed in a growth phase. Our new premises are modern and suited to our high tech functions.
We have built excellent synergies with local businesses and universities.

It feels like such a long time since I've done a wishlist and even longer since I've done a beauty one, today I thought I would bring you a Sephora wishlist. If you don't know who Sephora are they are a primarily based in America but it was launched in France in the 1970s. Sephora have stores around the world it would seem everywhere but England *sobs* I do a yearly order on their website around this time so it's looking like this stuff may get bought at some point, and if it doesn't it can stay on my lust list a little longer. I hope you enjoy this long over due wishlist post and let me know what is on your lust list.
When I saw this, I actually did a double take as it is so similar to a paint palette, and the colours are simply gorgeous and actually look like sweets, I would happily buy this palette as the shades are fun to mess around with and it is only $39 so a bit of a steal in my eyes.
How gorgeous is this?! Oh my gosh my heart melted when I saw this pure beauty and although it is expensive for a pocket mirror the design makes it all worth it, and I seriously considering adding this to my basket as it needs to be mine.
A bit more pricey for an eyeshadow palette but it is a Kat Von D one so it is totally needed right? There is a few of her other products I need to pick up including another Tattoo liner and studded kiss lipstick as they're all insane and should totally come to the UK.
I've heard some seriously amazing things about this foundation and how fabulous it is, and I am always on the lookout for a new foundation the only problem I have with this is being able to pick a colour online for the foundation and for $55 I'd like to get it right.
The Sephora favourites sets are always amazing value for money often having more than double the value than what you pay for. This set is $25 for $51 dollars worth of primers, it's also the perfect way to trial high end products without going for a full splurge on something you may not like.
I tried a mini version of one of these lipsticks from a Sephora favourites sets back in 2014 and I haven't been able to match the brightness and staying power what I got from Bite Beauty, at $24 I totally need some more in my life!
Never tried Sephora but I have seen a lot of the products & they look amazing. These look gorgeous too. That compact mirror looks so so pretty! It's a shame they don't have a store in the UK, maybe something they will think about in the future..we can but hope.
That compact mirror looks is too cute! And I have wanted to try bite beauty lipsticks heard they were good too! Great blog!
Obsessed with anything from KVD and that palette just looks amazing. I'd love to try some Marc Jacobs makeup, I bet that foundation is incredible!
Sephora products are so cool. Love their shower gel and body wash.


Our esthetic dentures look and feel better than you ever thought dentures could look!
Your smile is a prominent facial feature that says a lot about you before you ever speak a word. Missing teeth or ill-fitting dentures that make it difficult for you to smile easily can really take a toll on your self-confidence.
Do you resist the idea of dentures because you worry that they'll look fake and obvious? If so, we're happy to tell you that state-of-the-art modern dentures are customized to fit comfortably and look completely natural. We can make dentures that don't look like dentures.
Many of us remember the difficulties our parents or grandparents had with their dentures, so it's easy to understand why you might resist the idea. Fortunately great new dental technology and materials have come along that allow us to create dentures that fit perfectly and look beautifully natural.
Full dentures consist of an upper and lower plate and are appropriate when all or most of your teeth are missing. We would choose a partial denture if you're missing several teeth but still have remaining teeth to which a partial can be secured.
One of the most common questions we hear from patients is, "Will my new dentures look natural?" With over 17 years experience, Dr. Cantwell has all the expertise necessary to create natural-looking dentures using the highest quality, most updated dental materials available.
Our customized dentures are lightweight acrylic and tinted to blend naturally with your gums. Artificial teeth are carefully crafted and placed in the acrylic base one by one for a realistic appearance.
A common complaint among denture wearers is the discomfort associated with looseness and movement of the denture. Loss of teeth results in loss of bone that the dentures rely on for stability. This causes loose, painful dentures.
We want you to enjoy all the benefits of a whole and healthy smile. If you would like to learn more about our beautiful, natural-looking dentures, please call to arrange a consultation with Dr. Cantwell. Whether you choose traditional or implant-supported dentures, we'll have you smiling confidently again in no time!
Periodic dental checkups are still needed even if you don't have teeth. It is vital that your dentures be checked and periodically relined to a precise fit. This reduces the amount of jaw bone that is lost.
Instead of every 4-6 months, your dentist often may recommend only annual checkups.
An oral cancer examination will be done. Wear and fit of the denture will be checked. And your denture will be cleaned professionally. If you have dental implants supporting your denture the attachments are sometimes unscrewed and cleaned and checked for wear and tear.
A little bit of prevention with your denture can prolong their usefulness and keep several mouth conditions like growth, fungus and jaw bone loss from plaguing the average denture wearer.
With modern teeth replacement options dentures are becoming less common. But sometimes the damage is too extensive, and dentures become the best option. The good news is that with advantages of Dental Implants, dentures can be a great solution with great esthetics and function.
What Are the Top Problems for Denture Wearers?
This is the simplest to address with dental implants. Even as few as two implants under your lower denture can keep it from moving around or accidentally coming out while speaking or chewing. Placing two attachments inside your denture that the top of the implant "clicks" into allows good retention. An added bonus is a reduction of deterioration of the jawbone over the years.
Dentures have a long history of restoring function and appearance when teeth are lost. In fact, as early as the 7th century BC, partial dentures were created in ancient Italy using human or other animal teeth that were fastened together with gold bands.
Thank goodness dentures have gone through numerous transformations since then! Today we can offer dentures at our Meridian, ID office that look, fit, and feel more like natural teeth than you ever thought possible.

Thanks. These are very comfortable. Already have the black pair and just added the red pair.
I just received my black and white pair I ordered from eBay using reward bucks. These are the most comfortable slides on EARTH!!! In for another color!
Anyone know if these make your feet sweat?
Which ones did you buy? Looking for a cushiony sandal and wasn't sure if any of these fit that requirement. TIA and Happy Thanksgiving!
great deal, had some foot pain issue and must wear good sandals at home, this will do.
I ordered 2 pair of size 9 slides thanksgiving, and now received 2 pair of running shoes, one is 8.5 Alphabounce Beyond, which my son would gladly take it, the other one is 8 swift run.
Too much hassle to exchange+return. The 8.5 Alphabounce Beyond value would be easily over $30. What should I do?
Tried to order and it says the seller is away until Jan 1 2019. But it's the official Adidas store. I'm confused.

Women's Clothing Depot
David R Jaffe Dress Barn
Dressbarn.com is an internet retailer of women's clothes. From 1962 to 2019, the brand was associated with Ascena's chain of women's clothing stores. Retail Ecommerce Ventures, Miami, Florida now owns it. This article will help you choose the right dressbarn. This article includes links to several online retailers. Before making a purchase, it is important to research the different retailers.
The company has been in existence since 1962 when its first store was opened in Philadelphia. It went public about 25 years ago, but the family that started it is still involved. The company has been reinvented many times over the years, including as a specialty retailer. However, it has always remained loyal to its core customers. As the company's new leaders, Vivian Behrens (senior vice president and chief market officer) and David Jaffe (CEO), were hired.
The company also uses email marketing and social media to engage customers. They host live fashion shows that feature models and employees. The company even hosts fashion bloggers to take over their social media feeds. These efforts are designed to give customers an authentic, in-person shopping experience. The company has noticed a significant shift in consumer behavior and has refocused its marketing efforts accordingly. The new strategy has helped the company's online presence reach new heights.
The name of the store, "Dressbarn", is a nod to American culture's barn. Although the idea of a "dressbarn", has been around for decades now, it still conjures up images of cow pies and cavernous spaces. It was surprising to discover that there weren't any floral options available at the time I visited, but the store was stocked with a job advertisement. I hope that this will change soon.
The company needed a bigger headquarters and a better distribution center as sales grew in the 1990s. In 1994, they moved to a new Suffern, New York facility. The company would continue to operate in this new facility. The facility would handle the company's entire distribution needs. It also housed the company's executive offices. The company was able to start issuing its own credit cards, which helped to fuel its growth.
While its traditional brick-and-mortar locations have been impacted by the recession, Dressbarn has continued to grow despite the economic crisis. Despite the economic downturn, the company's revenue has increased by more than four-fold since it relaunched in April and is on track to hit $100 million in online sales in its first year. The company is clearly on the right track with its rapid growth rate.
Dressbarn has been around for decades but its current business model cannot be sustained. Ascena Retail Group has recently sold its Maurices division to OpCapita. The company's stores have not been profitable enough to justify this drastic measure. Although these changes may be difficult for consumers, they are necessary for the company's survival in the long-term. It may be worth visiting one of the remaining retail banners.
A successful online retailer like Dress Barn will provide many women with affordable designer clothes at a discount price. Dress Barn has been around for more than 50 years, and has thousands of locations across the U.S. Dress Barn offers an extensive range of clothing for women in all stages of their lives. The company also bought other chains to expand its business. It has been one the most successful online fashion retailers for the past ten years. Its success is largely dependent on its product range and the quality of its service.
Customers can continue to shop at Dressbarn's stores or its e-commerce website as normal during the winding down process. The brand's credit card will continue to be valid and will be honored. In addition, customers will be able to continue using their Dressbarn-branded credit cards until the wind down process is complete. The company hasn't announced any closure dates yet, but said its vendors and suppliers will continue to receive payment for their services.
Despite its success, Dressbarn's return policy is antiquated. The company won't accept returns and customers are only given gift certificates for items that they don't like. In the meantime, Dressbarn will focus on work-from-home fashions and athleisure. Despite its poor performance, the brand still stocks popular items for its customers. REV has hired four former Dressbarn buyers with proven brand knowledge, sourcing expertise, and a strong network of vendors.

The gorgeous emerald island of Mauritius rises majestically out of breathtaking cerulean waters and is one of the most coveted holiday destinations in the world. It's no real surprise; with its impressive natural beauty, world-renowned golf courses, a myriad of adventurous activities to explore (both on land and in the tropical sea), a vibrant culture and exotic culinary scene, it's quite literally an intrepid traveller's dream destination.
Ile aux Cerfs translates into English as the "Island of the Deer", a name given to the tropical idyll due to the fact that it once served as roaming grounds for deer imported from Java that were brought to Mauritius for hunting. Deers are no longer found on the island—instead, it has been transformed into an isle of world-class golfing, relaxation and simple pleasures where holidaymakers can enjoy blissful hours in the gorgeous Mauritian sun.
A wonderful thing about Ile aux Cerfs is that it's a mere 20 minutes from mainland Mauritius, making it a hugely accessible day trip destination, especially if you are already saying along the east coast of the island. But there's no perfect way to get to the Ile aux Cerfs itself; the choice is all yours. If you stay at one of the four marvellous Sun Resorts, you are afforded a complimentary boat shuttle transfer from Pointe Maurice to Ile aux Cerfs Masala Jetty, which operates from 09:30 to 18:00 every day, with the shuttle leaving from Pointe Maurice every 30 minutes.
However, you can also opt to arrive by a "taxi boat", plan a day trip with a company that will take you to the island via speedboat or catamaran (these are usually part of a day trip package which also includes a few activities and lunch) or if you really want to arrive in style, you can do so by helicopter (the helicopter pad is located close to the Ile aux Cerfs Golf Club).
The Ile aux Cerfs Leisure island is the perfect day trip destination for adventurous travellers looking to make the most of the tropical climate and gorgeous crystalline waters. While swimming and snorkelling in the lagoon is an absolute must, there is also a huge array of both land- and water-based activities on offer; from speedboat rides, water skiing, banana boat rides and parasailing in the exquisite turquoise lagoon to Acrobranch and ziplining at the Adventure Park. The Adventure Park welcomes both kids (above the age of 4) and adults, with varying levels of difficulty available based on the age of the visitor. If you are looking for an active day in the sun, the Ile aux Cerfs Leisure Island is definitely the place to be.
For those who are looking to kick back and relax, the soft ivory sands of the gorgeous pristine beaches at Ile aux Cerfs are exceptionally inviting and make for the perfect place to get in a solid dose of vitamin D. Place your towel right on the beach or pay a nominal fee for a beach lounger and spend your day taking in the view, lapping up the rays of the sun and delving into your favourite book while enjoying a refreshing cocktail that can be brought to you as you relax in the sun—at Ile aux Cerfs, you have the luxury of being able to enjoy island-living at its absolute best. And if you want to get away from any crowds, all you have to do is hop over the shallow lagoon at low tide and set yourself up on the beach of Ile aux Cerfs' small neighbouring island, which is totally deserted.
Sugar has played an important role in Mauritius and the Mauritian economy for centuries, primarily as an export product. Today, the uses for sugar cane and its by-products are virtually endless, from to carbon dioxide created in the sugar-making process which is then used for fizzy drinks to Mauritian rum, which is traditionally infused with tropical flavours such as lemongrass, lichi and vanilla. If you enjoy a rum-based cocktail, then having a rum tasting for a nominal fee at Sands Bar is an absolute must, where you can then select your favourite flavour and allow the expert barmen to tailor-make you a delicious tropical rum cocktail.
Sands Grill is the perfect place for barefoot island dining, with menu items that include delicious local fish—cooked to perfection and according to your choice of grilled, fried or steamed. Tasty Mauritian delicacies are also offered along with wood-fired pizzas. The thatched open restaurant has a relaxed ambience and is conveniently close to the beach, boasting incredible views of the azure lagoon.
Sands Bar is known for their phenomenal pizzas, with the extensive pizza menu offering everything from classic Italian favourites to novel and inventive creations. Pair your fresh pizza with your favourite tropical cocktail and enjoy your lunch on the beach in the most gorgeous (and laid-back) setting.
La Chaumière Masala Restaurant is a unique offering the likes of which you probably won't find again or at least anytime soon. Set amongst tropical trees, it's made up of a network of thatched gazebos that are perched on stilts or built on the hillside of Ile aux Cerfs, each gazebo offering gorgeous sea views. This novel restaurant serves up delicious and aromatic dishes inspired by India, Mauritius and Asia, where the traditional cuisines of these countries have been artfully reinvented by the head chef at La Chaumière Masala Restaurant. Exotic, fragrant classics and exciting fusions are expertly created to delight discerning guests in a magical setting—a meal here is sure to be an unforgettable experience.
The only thing that could possibly rival a sensational day spent on Ile aux Cerfs is a phenomenal private themed evening function in an incredible setting paired with world-class food and complimented by excellent drinks. Ile aux Cerfs is available for private and corporate functions which are sure to be as memorable as they are remarkable.
If a day trip to the dazzling Leisure Island on Ile aux Cerfs sounds like something you can't miss, then consider a stay at one of our luxury Sun Resorts, each hotel offering a unique getaway. From old-world elegance at the plantation-style Sugar Beach and the active island lifestyle of Long Beach to the exquisite adults-only Ambre and the authentic Mauritian feel of La Pirogue—whatever your preference, we are sure to have the perfect hotel for your dream holiday.


He had been in protracted negotiations for the part in Universal's high-flying picture.
Looks like Snow White needs to go on the hunt for another Huntsman—at least for now.
Viggo Mortensen, who has been in protracted negotiations for the part in Universal's high-flying Snow White and the Huntsman picture, has fallen out of talks to join the project.
The movie is one of several Snow White projects in active development—and, with star Kristen Stewart and other cast members locked, the one furthest out of the gate.
Commercials helmer Rupert Sanders is making his directorial debut on the Joe Roth-produced pic, which has Stewart as Snow White and Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen.
Talks resumed, but sources now say the deal frayed away overnight. Insiders don't know if the latest development is a death knell for Mortensen's involvement or simply a negotiating tactic. But as of now, Universal is moving on.
The project amps up the action quotient from the fairy tale and plays up the relationship between White and the Huntsman. In the new scenario, when she is banished and on the run by the evil queen, the Huntsman takes her under his wing to protect her, and she becomes his protege, learning how to fight and defend herself.

OFFICIAL: Barcelona Appoint New Captains After Exit Of Lionel Messi
The La Liga giants Barcelona have confirmed the four players who will be wearing the captain band next season following Leo Messi's exit.
Recall that the Blaugranas rounded up their preseason with a 3-0 win over Juventus yesterday to lift the Joan Gamper trophy.
Many factors are being considered before a captain can be chosen for a team. In most clubs, a Head coach is given the power to choose whosoever in his team as the Captain.
Meanwhile, most football clubs determine their captain based on how many years a player has spent at the club. They also look at whether the player has leadership characters.
However, Gerard Pique, Sergio Busquet, Jordi Alba, and Sergie Roberto have all been named as the new captain for FC Barcelona. The club made it known through their official social media handle today.
The caption reads: "The Captains" as Barcelona shared a photo.
Nevertheless, they will start to carry out their duty when Barcelona plays Real Sociedad in their first La Liga game of the season next Sunday.

LA City Nerd becomes secret society?
We got the alert from a valued commentator/tormentor db that LA City Nerd wouldn't let him in yesterday saying that you could read only as an "invited reader". I'm only an occassional reader but got the same warning message when I tried to log on.
What happened? Too much traffic and the good landlords at blogspot made them reduce traffic and bandwith useage? Couldn't handle the trolls so they limited access? Whatever the reason it would be nice to go in and see what their spin on LA is. Anyone care to share how to get an invite?
the l.a. city nerd myspace account is gone as well. so i don't think this is just a blog issue.
The other day day he had some odd statement on his 'status' on my gmail quick links section. I can not recall exactly what it was – but it was something like – good -bye. So IM'ed him but got no response.
And is his identity really supposed to be a secret? I've seen him live blogging twice at events – one of which I held, but I did not disturb his privacy.
There are several other blogs that have pointed this out as well. In each case, the post gets very few comments and no real answers. I suspect those in the know are not able to discuss the issue. My guess is that many bloggers already know exactly what/why/when etc but just aren't saying anything.
Brady, your blog is too funny. Bookmarked it. Thanks for the info on city nerd. No closer to finding out what happened. Maybe it was just time to move on.

NASCAR Xfinity at Phoenix: Daniel Hemric bags Xfinity championship with first NASCAR national series win
Phoenix, AZ, Nov 6/21 (by Reid Spencer/NASCAR Wire Service): Daniel Hemric picked the perfect time to win his first NASCAR national series race—and a title came with it. Executing an aggressive bump-and-run in Saturday night's NASCAR Xfinity Series Championship Race, Hemric passed Austin Cindric in the final two corners at Phoenix Raceway.
Approaching the finish line, the cars collided side-to-side, with Hemric crossing the stripe 0.030 seconds ahead of Cindric—roughly five feet—denying the driver of the No. 22 Team Penske Ford a second straight championship.
The victory came in Hemric's 208th NASCAR national series start, silencing critics who kept asking, "Will Hemric ever win a race?" The answer came from crew chief Dave Rogers moments after the winning driver crossed the stripe and clinched the title.
"How about that, champion?" Rogers said. "You'll never have to hear that stupid question again."
"Never again!" Hemric shouted in reply.
Hemric, who is leaving the No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota in favor of a ride with Kaulig Racing next year, was unapologetic about moving Cindric's Ford up the track to win the race at the end of a two-lap overtime that extended the event from 200 to 204 laps.
"I'm blacked out, blacked out," Hemric said at the start/finish line after turning a back flip off the roof of his car. "Just knew I had to be the first one to the line. I thought I let him get too much of a run off of (Turn) 4 (on the first lap of overtime).
"Drove into (Turn) 1, knew I was close, not to completely use them up, but we work our asses off for an opportunity like this—excuse my language. This is what it's all about, winning at the second highest level in all of motorsports. What an honor…
"How about those race fans? That back flip good enough for you? I've been waiting a long damn time to do that."
Cindric took the loss with consummate grace. "Until you spin somebody out, it's not dirty racing," said Cindric, who entered the championship event with five wins to his credit this season. "If everyone in the stands enjoyed it, it's good racing.
"I'm appreciative of the opportunity to race on such a big stage, race for Roger Penske, represent Ford Performance, all of our sponsors that helped us this season. It would have been awesome to finish this out. I felt like we had a dominant race car, felt like we did everything right. Come up a little short."
As a consolation prize, Cindric secured the Xfinity Series Owners Championship for Roger Penske with his runner-up result.
The other two Championship 4 drivers—Noah Gragson and A.J. Allmendinger—were in contention at the end. Gragson slammed the wall shortly after a restart on Lap 193 and fell to 12th at the finish.
Allmendinger suffered a loose wheel late in the race and spun in Turn 2 on Lap 181, causing the eighth of 10 cautions. Cindric, who led a race-high 113 laps, had a commanding lead at the time, but the yellow bunched the field and set up the late-race shootout.
Harrison Burton ran third on Saturday, followed by Riley Herbst and Justin Haley. John Hunter Nemechek, Brandon Jones, Brett Moffitt, Justin Allgaier and Sheldon Creed completed the top ten.
This was the final Xfinity race of the 2021 season.

Politics and Democracy
Episode 1.5: The Decline of American Labor and the Rise of Inequality – Brishen Rogers
Interviewer: MATTHEW BERKMAN. Union membership in the United States has experienced a long decline. From a peak of over 30 percent of the labor force in 1945, it now hovers around 11 percent. Legal scholar BRISHEN ROGERS (Temple University and a Visiting Fellow at the Roosevelt Institute, Georgetown Law) argues that, more than the ineluctable forces of automation and globalization, it is this decline that is responsible for the high levels of income inequality in the U.S. While these processes are intertwined, Rogers uses a comparative approach to tease them apart. To redress inequality, he advocates that we adopt systems of sectoral bargaining that have succeeded in other countries to keep more income in the hands of working people. His discussion with Matthew Berkman, Visiting Assistant Professor at Oberlin College, followed his presentation at the Mitchell Center's REVERBERATIONS OF INEQUALITY Opening Conference.
The ANDREA MITCHELL CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF DEMOCRACY aims not just to promote, but to understand, democracy. Global in its outlook, multifaceted in its purposes, the Mitchell Center seeks to contribute to the ongoing quest for democratic values, ideas, and institutions throughout the world. In this podcast series, linked to our annual theme, we interview scholars, journalists, and public thinkers grappling with the challenges facing our democracy.


IPL, Intense Pulsed Light, uses a bright light that penetrates just below the skin's surface targeting the melanin (skin pigment) or blood vessels. IPL, sometimes called photo facial, treats a variety of skin conditions, including hyperpigmentation (sun damage and age spots), rosacea and broken capillaries. IPL treatments also stimulate collagen formation in the skin, tightening pores for a firmer, smoother skin texture.
The Cynosure Palomar Icon utilizes the most advanced IPL technology on the market, which is referred to as Optimized Light Technology (OPL). Optimized Light Technology is superior for clearance of vascular and pigmented lesions that goes beyond single-wavelength lasers.
