What has been debated has been debated and their is nothing less to discuss. Your views are nothing but corruptive influences on anyone you talk to.
I think it won't. That's about it. We don't agree and therefore are diametrically opposed.
That sounds like a great ideal, if we can ever get to it.
So how would it be so bad to get more rights to women?
Not long ago many meant democracy was impossible
So, by "not long ago" you mean "more than two thousand years ago, when Athens was already a democratic city-state", right?
Democracy isn't impossible, it's just weak, there's better alternatives.
1700's, 1800's. Well non liberal-democracies fall down to civil disobidience, revolutions and the such. And if they don't the state have to use resources that could be better spent elsewhere on monitoring and surpressing the citizens.
The only true change can occur from social and educational changes. The economy has nothing to do with it. It is not within the realm of anarchism.
Humans are broken now. We are weak, stupid, accidental beings. Maliciousness has less to do with it, we are simply prone to have every mistake, every issue and every conflict possible. Things may change, but only in a very long time.
So when I speak of social and educational changes. You oppose it since you think it is economics, and then say you want social and educational changes? Some logic Don't even know how anarchism play in here
Tommy, could we have an actual update about the status of the game?
Any commie advances, any major events? Interesting elections abroad?
Germany rebuilding? Japanese?
IC scores comparisons, manpower pools for different blocs?
Yes I would like to know the state of the world. Possibly also how the former colonies are doing. And if other natins have started to decolonize.
Do this game simulate the EEC and ECSC in any way?
And if it is not too much work, could you show us the different armies, the naval bases (and the navies) and air strips with their fleets?
Then we have no issue on this end. Sometimes what I read you say and what you mean are not always the same thing. I apologise.
They always happen after the election. Sorta.
I feel genuinely sorry for Enewald. He seems to genuinely believe that other people in this thread have nothing better to do then rehash the same old arguments about anarcho-capitalism for the twenty-second time and would relish the prospect of covering ground that got boring in Blood and iron rather quickly rather than do something new.
The Autumn of Empire
1954-1958
In the weeks after the election the Labour Party appeared on the brink of collapse – the calamitous showing of the party at the polls discrediting Bevan's already divisive leadership. The ultimatum sent by Gaitskell's Social Democratic Club to the party leader had made it clear – if Bevan didn't step down he risked seeing the Labour Party tear itself apart. With this danger in mind Bevan called for an immediate leadership election – hoping that the legitimising effect of a leadership election might hold the party together.
The resulting election provided the Labour Party with a new leadership that had been predicted by neither Bevan nor Gaitskell. Harold Wilson, at 38 much younger than both his two main opponents, had served as a cabinet minister during Attlee's governments before becoming an enthusiastic Bevanite during the early 1950s. With the party facing the abyss in 1954 he had presented himself as a candidate that was moderate enough not to be divisive but radical enough to push for the possibility of real change. With Gaitskell withdrawing after a poor showing in the first ballot Wilson was able to push ahead of Bevan and secure the party leadership. Distancing the party from the Communists, Wilson would attempt to rebuild Labour support – pushing the restoration of Labour's role as the dominant force to the Left of Centre.
During the Eden administration of the 1950s great efforts were made to reassert Britain as a world power – even as it shifted away from its colonial Empire the British government appeared firmly committed to ensuring that it remained the world's third force. In September 1954 the United Kingdom became the world's third nuclear power as it unveiled to the world the success of its nuclear tests. Between 1954-56 a number of new warships were launched ensuring that the Royal Navy was comparable only to the United States Navy, which was admittedly almost twice its size, with both the French and Soviet fleets being considerably behind. At the same time projects aimed at expanding and modernising the RAF meant that the British air force was comparable in size to the Soviet air force. In line with the government's drive for military expansion in 1955 an act was passed in parliament allowing for mandatory two year conscription for every adult male – providing the necessary manpower for the militarist project.
From the mid-1950s Britain's process of decolonisation once again began to swing towards violence. From 1954 British forces would be involved in major guerrilla conflicts in Cyprus and Kenya as nationalists insurgents struggled to bring an end the iron grip of the British Empire. The wars in Cyprus and East Africa drew the first major deployments of British troops into combat since the Korean War in 1950. At the same time gradual steps towards deconstruction of the Empire were taken. In 1954 Newfoundland and Labrador were transferred from a British to a Canadian administration, the following year Rhodesia and Nyasaland were placed under a nominally autonomous administration aimed at eventually establishing an independent state under majority rule whilst later that same year Ceylon was granted independence under a friendly government with Britain retaining a military base near the capital Colombo.
Lest it be forgotten, the leader of Her Majesty's Opposition from 1954 was not Labour's Harold Wilson but the veteran Liberal leader Archibald Sinclair. Having taken over the leadership of the party in 1935, Sinclair led the Liberals through their darkest period and into an era of rebirth after the War that had culminated in the 1954 election. However, after two decades at the head of British Liberalism, Sinclair's health was fading rapidly. Shortly after his twentieth anniversary as party leader Sinclair would suffer a debilitating heart attack and resign the party leadership. In stark contrast to Labour, the Liberals were a united party in the ascendancy and the St Andrews born Member for Orkney and Shetlands Jo Grimond was able to rise to the leadership largely unopposed. Grimond acted as a timely answer to the emergence of Wilson was beginning to see many of the Liberal Party's new supporters drift back to Labour. A strident supporter devolution, especially for Scotland, a critic of Tory militarism, Labour's socialism and the National Liberals' disregard for social justice Grimond brought a youthful vigour to the party whilst staying true to its central tenants.
Through the mid-1950s the British economy continued to flourish as incomes and the standard of living rose at an impressive pace. Despite a relatively high rate of inflation and an increasingly imbalanced current account (with higher incomes seeing ever larger quantities of goods being imported even as exports rose much more slowly) the country appeared prosperous and stable. It was this stability that kept Thorneycroft and his radicals in line and the Conservative-National Liberal Alliance strong. From 1956 everything would begin to change. One of the defining years of the Cold War, political crises in Central Europe, the Middle East and South-East Asia would tilt the world towards War once again whilst Britain, and several other Western countries, were to be afflicted by a worrying economic downturn.
Popular belief would have it that the worst political repressions of the Post-War world came in the Stalinist regimes of Eastern Europe and China, in reality the gruesome title belongs to the Dutch East Indies. Following the brutal reassertion of Dutch colonial power after 1945 the East Indies were afflicted by low level guerrilla warfare as Dutch colonial forces attempted to destroy the insurgency of Nationalist forces by any means necessary. However, from 1953 the Nationalists began to make major advances once again – forcing the Dutch to redouble their efforts. Following the election of a Social Democratic government in the Netherlands in 1955 Indonesia was granted independence on January 3rd 1956 – with the Dutch transferring power to Nationalists who were willing to respect Dutch property, prevent social revolution and remain hostile to the Soviet Union.
Within two months the country had moved into civil war as radical forces around the 1,000,000 member strong Communist Party of Indonesia faced off against the new national government. By the late summer of 1956 the government had lost almost all authority outside of Java with the revolutionaries make great advances and even crossing over into Australian territory in New Guinea. Fearing that one of the most populous nations on earth might fall to the Communists the United States began to deploy troops to Indonesia – by the end of the year there were already 70,000 American military personnel in the country and that number would only grow steadily from there.
Around the world international Communist suffered one of its most traumatic blows in 1956. The disillusionment caused by the events of that year was typified by the experience of one Communist MP sent to take part in a debate at the Oxford Student Union in early 1957, upon reaching the front door of the building he simply turned around and left feeling that there was no point in arguing in favour of the indefensible.
In February, having emerged as the dominant force within the CPSU, Nikita Khrushchev delivered a 'secret speech' to leading members of the Soviet Communist Party in which he denounced Stalin and the tyrannical measures he had taken during his rule. As details of the speech slowly spread across the world many were horrified by the condemnation of the greatest hero of the international Communism, others were worried by the break in the monolithic unity of purpose of the movement whilst many more were shocked at the details of Stalin's despotic terror which had hitherto been unknown in large parts of the world. But much worse was to come. In July a Polish troops clashed with workers in Poznan – killing scores, then in October Revolution broke out in Hungary. With the Communist Party stepping down from power in the face of massive popular protest at its rule Hungary attempted to remove itself from the Warsaw Pact and forge out its own independent destiny. The hopes of October were to quickly become the broken dreams of November as Soviet tanks forcible restored a subservient Communist Party to power and crushed the rising. Across the world hundreds of thousands drifted away from party membership and millions from their alignment to the movement. In Britain Harry Pollitt retired, a sick and broken man, whilst 15 Communist MPs would renounce their membership within a year of the Hungarian Revolution, most of them joining the Labour Party.
Just as the two great Superpowers were rocked during 1956, the British Empire would also face down a powerful foe. On July 26th, 1956, Egypt unilaterally nationalised the Suez Canal – one of the most valuable assets of the entire British Empire. It was a bold act that was to have major repercussions for Egypt, the Middle East, Britain and the world as a whole. Whilst Nasser's actions were universally condemned in the West, few could agree on what course of action to take. The British cabinet in particular was riddled with divisions over the issue with the Prime Minister overruling and largely ignoring his Foreign Secretary and coalition ally Ernest Brown in going ahead with secret talks with the French and Israelis over a potential intervention.
The British, French and Israeli plan was complex, daring and riddled with flaws. On October 4th Israeli invaded Egypt – crushing the Egyptian army in the Sinai and advancing towards Suez. With the economically invaluable canal at risk the British and French demanded that both sides withdraw from the vicinity of the canal and offered to send a taskforce to occupy the Canal Zone. The trick fooled no one with both the Soviet Union and the United States condemning the Imperialist ploy of the British and French. More importantly, Eden had gone behind Brown's back in establishing his plot – enticing the National Liberal leader to rage. Faced with a hostile situation domestically and internationally Eden humiliatingly called upon the task force to turn around en route to Suez and return to Malta.
With the British being forced to backtrack into a policy of neutrality in Suez they had been delivered the worst possible outcome of the gambit. The Prime Minister had been humiliated, the Canal remained in Nasser's hands but worst of all the Israelis rebuked American and United Nations efforts to negotiate a truce – meaning than shipping through Suez was severely disrupted causing a spike in oil prices and a major shock to market confidence. Suez was the spark for a market crash in early 1957 that saw a number of British firms go under and unemployment rise to over a million for the first time since the War.
With the economy failing, both the Labour and Liberal opposition castigating the government and the Alliance itself at war with itself the end of Eden's administration seemed certain by March 1957. Yet, Eden was to be saved by an unexpected U-turn in Washington. As the war in the Middle East dragged on the Americans were growing increasingly concerned over the economic fallout caused by the disruption of shipping lanes through Suez, and the prestige being garnered by the Soviet Union for its defence of Egypt – something that had helped cushion the blow of its invasion of Hungary. In late March the Americans have Eden secret permission to intervene in Egypt in order to bring a swift end to the conflict. On April 3rd hundreds of British planes blacked Northern Egypt's skies before a small task force landed around Suez on April 4th. On April 6th British tanks were hurried into Cairo where they supported a royalist coup against Nasser.
In scarcely a week the fate of British power in the Middle East, and Anthony Eden's government, was totally reversed as the Israeli-Egyptian War was brought to an end and Suez returned to Anglo-French ownership. The victory in Egypt gave Britain a level of hegemony in the Middle East that it had not enjoyed since its withdrawal from Palestine. Now on very friendly terms with Israel, governments under substantial British influence ruled over Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Jordan, Iran, Yemen and Oman. Elsewhere the Sudan was granted independence in July 1957 whilst in August Britain's possessions in the Caribbean were reorganised into the partially independent West Indian Federation as the slow process of decolonisation continued.
The Prime Minister had somehow made it through the Suez Crisis with his prestige intact, even enhanced with the eventual British triumph in the spring. However, through 1957 he would be forced to become embroiled in a major power struggle within his own government. The whole Suez Affair had been deeply embarrassing for Ernest Brown –had been made to appear extremely weak to his own party and a bellicose nuisance to the Prime Minister at the same time. When Thorneycroft finally challenged Brown for the leadership of the National Liberal Party in May the long term leader was easily swept aside, with Thorneycroft being promoted to Deputy Prime Minister. With Brown being removed from the cabinet entirely Thorneycroft assumed the position of Foreign Secretary for himself and had Eden appoint Enoch Powell, an ex-Conservative who flirted with the pro-Tory wing of the National Liberal Party, as his successor at the Home Office.
Elsewhere, Eden and the Chancellor, Rab Butler, had never seen eye to eye, indeed Butler once described Eden as ''half mad Baronet, half beautiful women'' and had become deeply concerned with the Prime Minister's insistence on such an aggressively imperialist foreign policy with associated high defence spending – especially now that funds were direly needed to stimulate the economy in light of the recession. Through June and July Butler began to measure the level of support within the Conservative Party for a challenge to Eden's leadership, however his confidence was betrayed and word quickly returned to the Prime Minister of his machinations. Choosing to confront Butler directly, in early August Eden demanded his Chancellor's resignation and shortly thereafter received it. However, just as one threat to his leadership was dealt with another rose as Thorneycroft made a power play – demanding that he be made Chancellor of the Exchequer and be given free rein to formulate a budget based on his monetarist beliefs that would tackle Britain's economic woes.
Believing that Thorneycroft's economic policies would prove disastrous, and unwilling to allow the new National Liberal leader any more power, Eden instead appointed fellow Conservative Harold Macmillan. With Macmillan a committed One Nationist he promised to formulate a Keynesian response to the recession and the protection of the mixed economy – something that went someway to easing the concerns of the Liberal Party whom the government still had to work with closely in parliament. However, being turned down in his bid to become Chancellor was a slight that Thorneycroft would not soon forget.
In 1957 Britain would make a number of forward strides in the advancement of its military power. On October 8th the country's first hydrogen bomb was tested whilst earlier in the year the production of a substantial stockpile intercontinental ballistic missiles was begun. Elsewhere through the year there was a substantial investment in the defences of the British Isles as anti-air and military radar stations were constructed across the country.
In that same year the Irish Republic Army would begin its first major series of violent operations since the War as a bombing campaign swept across Northern Ireland. True to their status as a party of order, and their alliance with the Ulster Unionist Party, the Conservative led government fought fire with fire – giving the Unionist controlled Stormont government of Northern Ireland its full and unconditional support.
Through late 1957 the relationship between the Conservatives and their National Liberal allies went into terminal decline. Although they clashed on a number of points, not least of which was the personal struggle between Eden and Thorneycroft, the central issue remained, as ever, economics. The National Liberals simply refused to accept the plans of the Chancellor, Harold Macmillan, to push for an increase in public spending accompanied by tax cuts as a means to combat the recession – for monetarists it was utter insanity and could not be accepted. As it became clear that their views would be pushed aside once again the National Liberals left the government in February 1958 – renouncing the Conservative-National Liberal Alliance that had endured for a decade.
Despite the breakdown of the alliance with the National Liberals, the Prime Minister had initially hoped that he might remain in government by forming a coalition with the Liberal Party. However, Grimond and the Liberals feared that a full blown coalition with the Tories would end their hopes of retaining the bulk of the Centre-Left support they had won in 1954 and instead pushed for a new election. Having failed to form a new coalition Eden was therefore forced to call for a new general election and hope that the death of the Alliance would not result in the fall of the Conservative Party from power for the first time in eight years.
Moustachless Wilson defeats Gaitskell in walkover contest? Thanks a lot Tommy, I have to vote for PR and stupid devolution now like some kind of claymore-wielding maniac in a Whig wig.
Brits and Israeli's, kicking those Egyptians back to the Pyramids. Life is simpler with aggression.
Hmm Labor or Liberals?
On one hand I want and actual center left victory so I think that the liberals are my choice at this juncture.
On the other I am a union man at heart and want to see labor win for that reason.
Not that it matters much because the Nat Libs. and cons will probably hold on to power indefinitely until Thatcher reign as the iron empress eternal knowing our mixture of an-caps and colonel blimps ! :angry:
I can see it now Colonel Blimps keeping us in eternal war to fight for a dead and purely exploitative empire While the Nat Libs demand everything including fire departments privatized to the benefit of no one but enewaldian egos and a dozen truely fat cats.
The Nat. Libs seem intent on getting the worst type of neo liberalism implemented forever more.

Well the monetarist reforms would have been for the better. It is impossible for the government to control demand, and Keynesniasm haven't really proved to be working, beside from creating large amounts of inflation. Something that actually hurt the consumer, the common household and only benefit the fat cats.
Just look at the recent events. Due to the massive spending of the governments, according to Keynes our economy should be tip top with high employment. But what happens? Financial meltdown and rising unemployment. The government can't detirmine demand and employment through measures like these. Only thorugh a central bank. That is why the monetarist theories actually are healthier and better off for the economy. And it is in no way a hands off policy, laissez-faire or anarcho-capitalism. One might even see it as a more free-market orientated keynesniasm.
I don't like monetarism but I'm deathly afraid of supply side that flows from it , and the harshness under which it is always done. I get that post war consensus can reign unchanged forever but we can modify without gutting and going full service economy and merciless more money=better than attitude and crushing unions.
Further Keynesian can work when structure changes are including and its not used as just a holding power, with investments in industries and education first and foremost.
Also Inflation while not great is equally of burden to the static investments of the incredibly wealthy than to the working person so its in their interest to demand that the common man suffers the consequences in their stead.
I don't have a claymore.
Where do Milton Friedman say that he want to crush unions? And his theories have never been tried ((since we're in1960 or 1958 now)) so you can't say that they don't work. But they are more reasoneble, and we can see that with what Keynes would describe as a low conjecture, that is the economy going down with rising unemployment, even with large government investments which would according Keynes raise demand and employment. However the contrary happened; unemployment rose and we entered a so called low conjecture. This do greatly indicate that the government actually can't detirmine demand and stimulate to employment through expansive financial politics. Let it be a more healthy approach.
Monetarism is in many ways based upon Keynes' monetary policies. However no one have followed them and disregard them. And the effects of that is horrible. A massive decrease in purchasing power, increasing unemployment, lower real-wages and in turn demand.
Zzzzz...
No blood! No bone! No ash!
Woooo! We won in Suez suckas! And it is good that we have our own nuclear arsenal. This will keeps us away from the grip of Moscow and Washington!

Moree businesses urged to nominate for region's Innovation AwardsMoree businesses urged…
Moree businesses urged to nominate for region's Innovation Awards
Monday 13th of September 2010
Moree Plains Shire Mayor, Cr. Katrina Humphries with Regional Development Australia Northern Inland Project Officer, Kim-Trieste Hastings talking about the Prime Super Northern Inland Innovation Awards.
If your business has been innovative, diversified, or expanded to captured niche markets, or better meet customer or community needs through new approaches, then your time to shine is now. The Prime Super Northern Inland Innovation Awards are run by Regional Development Australia Northern Inland (RDANI). Due to strong interest, the deadline for nominations has been extended to Thursday 30 September, 2010.
Moree Plains Shire Council Mayor, Cr. Katrina Humphries is clearly proud of her local business sector. "The businesses and industries in and around Moree are extremely innovative and diverse. We've survived a drought for 10 years and we're still going," she said. "Our farmers are some of the world's most innovative. Moree is a centre of excellence for engineering. We have a lot of innovative, imaginative people here, who I'm immensely proud to be associated with. These Innovation Awards are a wonderful opportunity for people in the bush to be acknowledged for what they are doing. It's a great thing. Our stand out businesses deserve regional recognition and I hope they make the effort to nominate," Mayor Humphries said.
A Moree small business person herself, Mayor Humphries said that thinking outside the square, being bold and branching out in a new direction is important. "If you've got an idea, have a go! Our 'mistake slice' is one of our best. People in the bush generally have a go and adapt – you have to," she said. "I really hope some of these awards come to Moree."
The Prime Super Northern Inland Innovation Award Categories are:
• Agriculture / Horticulture and associated services
• Tourism / Leisure and services
• Professional and Retail services
• Manufacturing and Engineering
The 2010 Innovation of the Year Award will be presented to the leading innovator across all categories. Innovation is not necessarily invention. The RDANI Innovation Awards Committee will select the finalists, who will be invited to attend the gala awards evening on Saturday, 13 November at the Inverell RSM Club.
RDANI Executive Officer, Nathan Axelsson said the holistic development of northern inland communities needs innovative businesses. "Importantly, people nominating their business stand to inspire others in the region. Make your region proud of what you are doing and how you are doing it. Show others in the region that they can succeed commercially or make a real difference, through being innovative and taking a bold new approach," he said.
RDANI Project Officer Kim-Trieste Hastings said that from Quirindi to Moree, and across to Tenterfield, the Prime Super Northern Inland Innovation Awards should see strong nominations from across the 13 Local Government Areas of New England North West NSW. "There are many businesses in this region, large and small, which are innovative, growing and succeeding. Their innovative efforts are important (often critical) to the economic and social development of their local communities and the region, as a whole," she said.
For a nomination form, contact RDANI: 02 6771 2790 or download the nomination form via: www.niia.com.au

I recently learned the core .NET Queue type uses arrays internally, and that this is actually much more efficient. I've had a go at writing a singly-linked list version of a queue, MyQueue.
Running basic stopwatch times against this type and the .NET type shows about 50ms difference when queuing 1 million items and checking the length.
there is no need for MyQueueNode to be public. You should restrict its access modifier as much as possible. Clients don't need to see your queue internals.
Peek method returns null on empty queue. What if there is null as data value? You might consider throwing an exception as seen in Dequeue and let user check queue by checking its length before the Peek is called.

Health care resources lack in the lower Laurentians: citizens' group
Published Sunday, January 24, 2016 3:41PM EST
Last Updated Sunday, January 24, 2016 5:32PM EST
A citizens' group in the lower Laurentians says residents in the region are suffering with too few doctors and not enough services for a growing population.
"Don't get sick here, because you are going to have to fight your way in to get help," said Nel McChristie of Equity in Health for the Lower Laurentians, at a meeting Sunday about navigating the health care system in the region.
The group has met monthly in Two Mountains for the past year and a half, because they worry about people falling through the cracks, even if they're lucky enough to have a family doctor.
"He gave me an appointment for a colonoscopy; he said it would take a year. It took 19 months before someone called me," said Gordon Wetmore, also a member of the group.
They say the biggest issue isn't quality of care, but rather access to it.
"We are not here to blame the healthcare workers. They are doing their best, they are doing their job. It's the funding, there just isn't enough funding to hire more people," said Bhanu Kotecha.
There's also been a mini-population boom, explained Duncan Hart Cameron.
"So we've got pressure on our health care services from both ends of the spectrum from retired people that are beginning to use more and more health care services and young families as well," he said.
They say an outdated provincial funding formula is responsible for the gap.
"I moved into this region 30-plus years ago, and it was more equal to the rest of Quebec at that time," said Elizabeth J. Sacca. "With the increasing population they got stuck in the old budget so they never adjusted, so it became less and less universal."
The group has met with almost every political party and said they don't expect new healthcare spending, but are hoping instead for funds to be re-allocated across the province.
A spokesperson from Health Minister Gaetan Barrette's office said they are looking into the group's concerns.
The group plans to move forward, and hopes to have their issue addressed this spring in Quebec's National Assembly.

First time in Israel
I spent New Year's Eve at a Budapest house party with several multi-lingual people. We went to the Danube River to see fireworks, but they were unimpressive. The best fireworks I have seen have been in Las Vegas during New Year's Eve and the Fourth of July. There were not as many people in Budapest as I had imagined. I thought it would be pure debauchery in the streets, packed to the gills, but it seemed not too different from any great nightlife day of the week.
Getting to Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport from the city is a breeze. I bought a transfer ticket for 530 HUF (US$2) and took the M3 subway to the end of the line, Kőbánya-Kispest. From there, the sign clearly indicates with an airport icon, and I saw the 200E bus, which makes a few stops before arriving at the main Terminal 2 of Budapest Airport. On my world tour, I have taken several airport buses. Some are crowded and smaller than desired, but this bus has plenty of space. The trip from downtown to the airport covers 22 kilometers and takes less than an hour. A taxicab would take less than 30 minutes but cost more than $30.
To fly to Tel Aviv, I used the 10-year-old, Hungarian-based Wizz Air. My total fare was an excellent $126, but $43 of it was the luggage fee! Of course, I view airline fares all-in, but this detail was still eye-watering. Of the low-cost airlines I have taken, Wizz Air was perhaps the most comfortable. I think a Vueling flight I took was the most cramped. The seat pitch in my row 19 was at most 32 inches, but it felt much more spacious because the flight was not full, and the middle seat was empty. There are no seating assignments on Wizz Air so I was expecting to be punished by being one of the last ones on the airplane, but I happily found space next to one of the most beautiful flight companions I have ever had. She looked like an Israeli model, so I often stole a look at her under the pretext of looking out the window. She had the usual good features of long eyelashes, lustrous hair, innocent skin, an alluring smile, and long legs. However, she had a questionable Canadian cowboy outfit thing going on with a denim jacket paired with jeans. She was a nervous flier because she made a praying gesture on take-off and clapped when we landed successfully.
I have both heard and read about the terribly long security clearances at Ben Gurion Airport. One can expect to be searched physically and asked myriad questions. The procedure can take more than an hour. Context and physical profiling are in heavy use. I was relieved when it took only 20 minutes from arriving at passport control to retrieving my bag and into the open air.
I was impressed with the number of joggers on the Tayelet promenade.
When arriving at an international destination, I wonder why people lollygag their way to passport control, which is the biggest factor in time gained or lost. It behooves everyone to run from the plane to the passport control queues since much waiting may occur there.
Frishman Beach, Tel Aviv.
Tel Aviv's airport is actually not located in the city proper. The train platform to get to the city is well marked. I bought a ticket for 16 shekels (US$4) from a kiosk. At night, the train runs only once per hour, down from twice per hour. I waited half an hour for the train, but once it arrived, it took only 14 minutes to get to the center. From the station where I alighted, I took the #239 bus for 17 minutes and walked 7 minutes to my hotel. Most of the buses cost 6.9 shekels. I gave the driver a 10-shekel coin, and he gave me change. Whenever I use a bus, I am thankful when it is fairly empty, especially since I have a cumbersome bag with me. I was expecting to wait another 20 minutes for the bus I took, but it either arrived late or early based on the schedule.
To go to the city center, take the train toward Nahariya on Platform 2. In cases like this, you can also just be a lemming and follow the bigger mass of people with luggage.
My short walk to the hotel gave me a glimpse of Tel Aviv's reputation of being a nightlife scene. There were people everywhere. The city is modern and attractive. I wanted to wake up early so I avoided the temptation to go out. I slept 4.5 hours and awoke at sunrise at 6:41, which is 50 minutes earlier than in Europe. The sun in Israel also sets 40 minutes later than in Europe, so I have 90 minutes more of daylight here than I had the previous two months.
I walked through Trumpeldor Cemetery in Tel Aviv this morning.
My hotel is rundown, but it offered a decent complimentary breakfast. Besides, I got the room using a $100 Expedia coupon for $22.50. The hotel was only 300 meters from the Mediterranean Sea, so I admired the scenery and lightly exercised on the pull-up bars on the sand. I was freezing yesterday with several layers and gloves. Today, I saw an old man in a skimpy bathing suit, although methinks it was too cold to be in the water. Tel Aviv has 9 miles of beaches, of which I saw only a kilometer's worth at Frishman Beach.
Israel observes a Jewish day of rest called Shabbat, in commemoration of God building the world in six days and resting on the seventh. Shabbat is supposed to stretch from before sunset on Friday to sometime Saturday night. In practice, the duration is shorter, although it can still pose inconvenience, especially as it affects public buses and business opening hours. These religious rules against working on certain days or not exacting financial interest on loans are broken in so many ways. While there are extremely few hardline religious practitioners, people will claim to be religious and then live their lives as conveniently as possible, while claiming to observe these rules. It's pretty laughable.
I like my buses empty.
I have learned to use the buses already, having taken #4, #32, #239, and #405 (to Jerusalem). The standard fare amounts to $1.77, although the 50-minute ride to Jerusalem cost $4.88. The central bus stations in both Jerusalem and Tel Aviv are something else. They are surprisingly unfriendly to a general tourist, in that platforms and routes are not obviously marked. Easy enough for me but much harder than other terminals I have used in the world. They are filled with dirty shops so they seem more like shopping malls than a center for transportation. I left Tel Aviv early on Friday because I did not want to get bus-stranded due to Shabbat. Usefully, Google Maps accounts for Shabbat in its incorporation of bus schedules.
Typical inter-city bus. The central bus station in Tel Aviv has terrible architecture and wandering junkies. It also has an ugly mall and a bunch of buses.
When I arrived in Jerusalem, it took nearly an hour to arrive at my Airbnb home, which is only 2 kilometers away from the Central Bus Station! The wait for the bus was only 10 minutes. Around the main Mahane Yehuda market, Jerusalem's vehicle and pedestrian traffic patterns resemble those of a stereotypical third-world Middle Eastern city. Tel Aviv is much more orderly and to be fair, so is Jerusalem's, outside the market area.
I paid $47 for two nights in a residential neighborhood. I had slight trouble finding the address because street names in English are not common. I settled on a place that I thought might have been the destination, but I was still not sure. I was snooping around the apartment building when a resident noticed my suspicious behavior. He came out and spoke English and confirmed that I was at the right place. I went up to the second floor, where I was given instructions to find a key on a window sill. I was relieved to find the key, but there were now three doors from which to choose. I actually tried them all quietly, so as not to draw alarm in case I was wrong. One young man opened his door when I tried his lock, and we figured out that my key was incorrect! Apparently, the neighbors have each other's keys, and my temporary landlord left his. Thankfully, he was there to make a call to my Airbnb host in absentia and gave me the correct key.
Later, he would invite me to take the uphill walk back toward the market area. He gave me a useful guided tour on the way, describing the neighborhoods and the increasing religiousness of Jerusalem. I asked him, "How religious are you?" He replied, "Secular. Atheist." He was a medical student, as is my Airbnb host. I am not religious myself, but I came to Jerusalem to tour its cultural and spiritual sights. He introduced me to sabich, an Israeli sandwich. It was a pita sandwich with eggplant, hummus, salad, and some oily sauce. It was delicious. It cost $4.37 at Aricha Sabich, across from Mahane Yehuda market.
Jerusalem neighborhood I am staying in. Rehavia Ben Gurion school is nearby. I am less than 3 kilometers from the Western Wall of the Old City.
The Tel Aviv bike sharing system is absurdly labeled "Tel-O-Fun." I have not seen anyone using it yet.

Q: Lubuntu, running script on boot I'm using Lubuntu 19.04 with LXQt
I'm trying to remap the Caps-Lock and Escape keys. I have found the commands I needed to make that happen and I've made an executable script for them. If I run the script, it works; the problem is that I can't find the way to run the script on boot.
Here is my script, which is located in /usr/local/bin/:
#!/bin/bash

setxkbmap -option caps:none
xmodmap -e "keycode 9 = Caps_Lock"
xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = Escape"

Now, I have already tried with a cron job, running:
crontab -e

@reboot /usr/local/bin/my_script

I also tried running the previous command as sudo, with:
sudo crontab -e

or for my specific user:`
sudo crontab -u user -e

I gave up using cron and tried adding the specific commands to  /etc/init.d/rc.local and making the file executable using chmod, as I had to create the file.
Also, I tried adding it on /etc/rc.local.
What can I do to make this work?

A: create a file named swap.desktop or any name with .desktop extension in the directory /etc/xdg/autostart/ with the below content and reboot to see the change..
[Desktop Entry]
Name=swapping
Exec=setxkbmap -option caps:swapescape

A popular family-run fish and chip shop that was in Wisbech for more than 20 years has reopened its doors after closing in 2000.
The refurbished Boyall's Fish & Chips, in Norfolk Street, opened last Friday (November 9) after former owner Christopher Boyall and his partner Irena decided to take back the shop.
Mr Boyall's parents started the business in 1936 and Christopher, now 70, bought it in 1972 and ran it until 2000.
The pair even met top chef Jamie Oliver to share tips and tricks of the trade in preparation for the new opening.
Christopher, who has spent the last 18 years renovating property in Eastern Europe, said: "I have been renting the property to people since 2000 but I don't think many have realised what it's like to run a fish shop.
"But Irena and I thought it would be a good idea to take it back and make a success of it again.
Boyall's is currently only open on Friday teatime from 3pm to 8pm and Saturday lunch from 12pm to 2pm.
Christopher is also the engineer the behind the frying machines in the shop.
He added: "I personally wanted to run them in my own shop before selling to anybody and they have worked perfectly well and are now sold all over Europe.
"I have put fish and chips into so many areas where people go to events.
"I've kept a scrapbook of articles from the past about the shop and in 1984 the Wisbech Standard wrote an article about my ambition for fish and chips which has happened.

Yeo Jin Goo And Im Siwan To Film In Hawaii For "Let's Eat Dinner Together"
by S. Nam
Updated November 26 KST:
JTBC has confirmed that Yeo Jin Goo and Im Siwan will be filming for the upcoming special of "Let's Eat Dinner Together" in Hawaii.
Yeo Jin Goo and Im Siwan will reportedly be traveling to Hawaii to film the third part of the overseas special of JTBC's "Let's Eat Dinner Together"!
On November 26, an industry representative shared, "The two young stars Im Siwan and Yeo Jin Goo will become food companions through 'Let's Eat Dinner Together.'" The source continued, "[The actors] will be leaving for Hawaii on [November] 27 to film."
In particular, this special will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Samil (March 1st) Independence Movement and the establishment of the provisional government. Hawaii, along with Shanghai, China, was an important location overseas during the independence movement. In addition, Korean immigration to Hawaii began in 1903, making Hawaii an even more meaningful location historically.
The industry representative also added, "The communication with overseas Koreans living in Hawaii will hold different emotions and colors from the previous overseas special broadcasts of 'Let's Eat Dinner Together' featuring Koreans abroad in Japan and Russia."
Previously, Im Siwan and Yeo Jin Goo starred together in the 2012 MBC drama "The Moon Embracing the Sun." Furthermore, the two recently showed off their close friendship when Im Siwan sent a snack truck to Yeo Jin Goo on the set of his recent drama tvN's "Hotel Del Luna." Viewers are highly anticipating the two actors' chemistry for the upcoming special broadcast.
"Let's Eat Dinner Together" featuring Im Siwan and Yeo Jin Goo will air sometime in December.

The pictures show the 10'x10' gazebo with optional cedar shingle roof and vertical railings.
These octagonal wooden gazebos are either 8'x8' (2.4mx2.4m) or 10'x10' (3.0mx3.0m) with a choice of diagonal or vertical railings. Other options include a choice of a standard green felt roof, decorative green or red felt tiles, a cedar slatted roof or a cedar shingle roof. We offer fitting as a low cost option in many areas.
CEDAR SLATTED ROOF: Attractive and durable cedar slatted roof fitted on top of a felted solid pine inner roof. Cedar slatted roofs are manufactured using smooth planed Western Red cedar boards.
CEDAR ROOF SHINGLES: Attractive and durable, cedar shingles are ideal for a high specification garden rooms. This genuine cedar shingle roof is traditionally made with individual Western Red Cedar shingles laid over a felted solid pine inner roof.
RESTRICTED ACCESS: A quality feature of these gazebos is that they are made in large rigid panels. If access is restricted, your summerhouse can be specially made in smaller sections designed to pass through a normal single door. The smaller sections are designed to be at least as strong as the larger panels normally supplied. There is no charge for this option but notice is required with the order.
SPECIALIST DELIVERY SERVICE: These gazebos are normally delivered by specialist trained staff in dedicated vehicles. Most other gazebos are delivered by national carriers who normally deliver to the kerbside only and their prices are based on weight and pack sizes. National carriers normally refuse to carry glass and generally cause more damage. As a result gazebos delivered by outside carriers are normally made in smaller sections and weigh less, with thinner cladding and framing, styrene glazing less than 2mm thick and OSB floor and roof boards just 7mm thick. The benefits of a specialist delivery service include less damage, larger panels, heavier construction and helpful drivers who will carry your gazebo to your chosen storage place.
Thank you for your excellent service. The gazebo looks great in the sunshine we have here today.
Yes I have already filled it with furniture!

CCHS finally beats Helena to advance to State Tournament
Published 12:00 pm Friday, May 14, 2021
By ZACHARY SEIFTER/ Staff Writer
The Chilton County High School softball team is headed to Oxford.
The Lady Tigers clinched their spot in the State Tournament on May 13 in impressive fashion.
After defeating Wetumpka High School and Hillcrest High School on May 12, CCHS entered the final day of the 6A Regional Tournament with a date against Helena High School, a team that had gone a perfect 4-0 against CCHS this season.
"They've dominated us all year, they beat us four times," CCHS assistant coach Johnny Giles said. "They come out here thinking they were going to beat us I'm sure, I can't blame them."
This time, however, was different. In a season where the bats have helped carry the Lady Tigers to great heights, it was the pitching and defense that won the day.
Emma Deason started the game on the mound for CCHS and was sensational. The Junior threw a three-hit shutout, allowing only five total base runners in the game while striking out three hitters.
When Helena was able to break through against Deason and put runners in scoring position, the Lady Tigers defense stepped up. In one particular instance in the top of the fifth inning, Helena had runners on second and third base with one out. Hannah Steele, the runner on third, attempted to steal home on a ball that got away from the CCHS defense. However, the Lady Tigers defense was able to get the ball and cut Steele off, tagging her out. Deason followed that up by striking out Camryn Bailey to get CCHS out of the jam.
"We knew coming in our defense had to play well," Giles said. "They played phenomenal. We knew our pitching had to come through, and Emma Deason was absolutely phenomenal."
While Deason was fantastic, the pitcher on the other side, Bailey, was almost equally as fantastic.
Bailey pitched all seven innings for the Huskies. She only allowed four hits while striking out 10 batters. For Helena though, that was not enough.
It was in the sixth inning that the Lady Tigers offense finally broke through against Bailey. The inning began with Giles putting in Josie Cornell to pinch-hit. The eighth grader came up big, hitting a lead-off single to give some life to the CCHS dugout.
Chloe Shiers came in to pinch-run for Cornell and with Macey Pierce getting a base hit in the next at-bat, Shiers found herself at third base. Pierce was tagged out attempting to reach second base on the hit, but for the first time in the game, the Lady Tigers had a serious scoring threat.
With Marlie Giles up to bat, it seemed as though it was destined for CCHS to take the lead. It wasn't Giles that did the heavy lifting in getting the run home for the Lady Tigers though, it was Helena catcher Bella Holliday.
On the first pitch, Bailey threw a ball in the dirt. Holliday had a chance to block it but the ball skipped past her, giving Shiers a window of opportunity to advance home for the run. Shiers broke for the plate, sprinting at top speed and slid home just in time to score the run, giving the Lady Tigers a 1-0 lead, one they would never surrender.
"I felt [in] the gut there to pull Josie Cornell, eighth grader, put her up there to lead off the bottom of the sixth," said Giles. "[She] punches a hit up the middle and the rest is history … Of all things we score on a passed ball. Sometimes things just have to go your way."
The victory won the 6A regional tournament for CCHS. Their season continues on May 21 as they kick off the State Tournament in Oxford against Hartselle High School.

Q: How to get 2 different sized text to both float to the same height?
So in the picture you can see that the number "5384" and the number "50" dont float to the same height. I know that the paragraphs both float to the exact top of the line but how do i get them to look like they're on the same height?
I don't want to use "margin-top: some pixels" because that wouldn't scale properly would it?

.savings {
  font-size: 3rem;
  margin: 0;
  display: inline;
}

.savings_cents {
  font-size: 1.5rem;
  margin: 0 0 0 0.3rem;
  display: inline;
  vertical-align: top;
}

5.384

50

A:
This can easily be achieve using sup html tag

Read more about this tag here

p{
   font-weight: bold
}
p sup{
   font-weight: normal
}

5.384 50

You can easily style that using tag or classes

A: Just add a parent element and use display: flex. You can check both elements height is same. You can use other flex properties to change the alignment if you want.

p{margin: 0;} /*resetting p margin*/
.savings-ctnr {
    display: flex;
}
.savings {
  font-size: 3rem;
}

.savings_cents {
  font-size: 1.5rem;
}

5.384

50

A: We can inspire from tag , make  with class savings_cents, wrap it with element with class savings and make something like this:
.up-small {
  vertical-align: super; /*make element to be aligned with the superscript baseline of the parent*/
  font-size: 50%; /*fits proportions*/
}

Example look into snippet

.savings {
  font-size: 3rem;
  margin: 0;
  display: inline;
}

.savings .savings_cents {
  vertical-align: super;
  font-size: 50%;
}

Founded in 1928, Genuine Parts Company (GPC) is one of the largest replacement part makers in the automotive, industrial, office equipment, and electronics industries.
The company markets its products in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico through a large network including over 100 North American auto and industrial distribution centers and over 6,700 NAPA auto parts stores worldwide.
Genuine Parts Company's sales are derived from a diverse group of well-known industry brands including NAPA auto parts, Motion Industries (industrial components), and SP Richards & Company (office products).
The company's most important business segments are its automotive (56% of sales) and industrial units (34%), which combine to account for 90% of company-wide sales and profits. Business products generate the remainder.
By geography, North America represents the company's dominant market, generating 83% of revenue. However, in order to expand its geographical footprint in Europe, Genuine Parts Company acquired the second largest European automotive parts distributor, Alliance Automotive Group, for $2 billion in late 2017.
Genuine Parts has paid higher dividends for 63 consecutive years (including its 2019 hike), making the company a dividend king.
Genuine Parts Company has managed to raise its dividend each year for more than six decades, an incredible achievement made possible by two of the company's main competitive advantages: its trusted brand names and massive distribution network.
The company is a leading distributor to its four primary end markets with No. 1 or No. 2 market share positions (No. 3 in Europe) and an impressive reach in every segment. For example, NAPA auto parts has a total of over 8,000 global stores, serving more than 18,000 service centers.
The firm's 2017 acquisition of Alliance Automotive added another 4,000 repair centers to Genuine Parts's customer base, increasing its distribution chain by about 20%.
Genuine Parts has over 100 suppliers it uses to source more than 530,000 auto parts. This allows the company to serve as a one-stop shop for customers so they can get practically any auto part they may need.
This is especially important in the most demanding part of the auto parts market, professional clients, which account for about 78% of sales. Professionals require rapid access to a large number of components which the firm's enormous database of parts and leading distribution channel can deliver more quickly and affordably than its rivals.
Meanwhile, Motion Industries (34% of sales) was founded in 1946 and has a history of providing quality products to industrial firms like Halliburton (HAL), 3M (MMM), Coca-Cola (KO), PepsiCo (PEP), and Caterpillar (CAT). In fact, Motion Industries is closely tied into the entire global industrial base, with its components finding their way into roughly 7.9 million products around the world each year.
The Business Products segment (10% of sales) has impressive scale as well, offering nearly 100,000 products to customers via 9,700 resellers. The company further deepens its relationships with distributors by offering key services like inventory management and point of sales offerings. This helps Genuine Parts to better stand out from rivals in a highly fragmented industry. As a result, Genuine Parts commands No. 2 market share in the office products industry.
The other key factor contributing to Genuine Parts's moat is its supply chain and breadth of inventory. This is because NAPA auto parts work in an industry in which inventory management and just-in-time delivery are paramount.
For example, an auto parts store generally doesn't want to hold a lot of excess inventory because that represents a substantial capital investment. Similarly, auto repair shops generally order components as needed in order to service customers that just showed up in a timely manner.
Genuine Parts Company's large network of global distribution centers makes it possible for its customers to order parts at a moment's notice and have them generally delivered the same day, maximizing their inventory turnover, sales, and profits.
As one of the largest players, Genuine Parts Company can afford to hold more inventories and offer better delivery times than many of its competitors. And thanks to its extensive supply chain network, the company can even market more specialized and slower selling items because it can source them from nearby distribution centers, thus maintaining higher inventory turnover and greater customer loyalty.
In addition, because auto parts and industrial components sectors are generally price inelastic, meaning that customers care far more about the reliability of products and the convenience of deliveries than they do about getting the absolute lowest price. This is partially because professional clients tend to pass on higher prices to their customers, helping Genuine Parts maintain its brand and pricing power over time.
Combined with growing economies of scale, over time Genuine Parts Company has historically enjoyed steady and improving profitability. In fact, Genuine Parts Company's sales and profit have increased in 86 and 75 of the 91 years that the company has been in business, respectively.
This helps explain the company's steady dividend growth, which is also supported by management's conservative payout ratio target of 50% to 55%.
Additionally, unlike selling to original equipment manufacturers, the aftermarket business is relatively stable and generates great cash flow to support a healthy dividend. Vehicles and equipment break down and must be replaced. Therefore, the business is less discretionary than the auto sector in general.
The automotive aftermarket has benefited from the improving reliability of vehicles over the decades as well, which allows consumers to own cars for longer, but only if they are properly maintained and repaired. As cars age, the cost to repair them increases, generating more demand for Genuine Parts.
The average fleet age for U.S. cars is now 11.7 years and slowly climbing. Over 70% of the vehicles are over six years old, which means annual maintenance costs are, on average, nearly 50% higher than newer cars and trucks.
And with the U.S. population slowly but steadily growing, and with it the number of vehicles on the roads, this creates a large, stable, and fragmented industry for Genuine Parts Company to service.
In fact, the global automotive aftermarket is $200 billion in size and growing about 2% per year according to management. Genuine Parts, despite its leading size, still commands less than 8% market share, providing a long runway for growth over time.
The industry's fragmentation creates the opportunity for growth through acquisition, mostly small tuck-in deals. Since 2016 Genuine Parts has acquired over 60 companies, boosting its annual sales by almost $3.3 billion (and accounting for 95% of total company sales growth).
Larger deals, like Alliance Automotive, have helped the company more quickly boost its store count, which is critical to increasing market share and profitability. Analysts expect the company's operating margin, 6% in 2018, will expand to about 8.5% over the next decade thanks to better cost cutting and economies of scale.
The industrial components market is over $80 billion in size as well, and here, too, despite No. 2 market share, Genuine Parts commands just 8% of total global sales. In other words, continued bolt-on acquisitions could serve as a reliable growth runway for many years to come.
Overall, Genuine Parts Company's businesses seem to operate in slow-changing industries and maintain dominant market share positions because of their extensive distribution networks (just-in-time delivery), leading range of products, brand recognition, and long-standing customer relationships.
Combined with its conservative payout ratio and solid cash flow generation even during economic and industry downturns, Genuine Parts thus appears to be a potentially solid choice for conservative dividend growth investors. However, there are several important risk factors to consider.
While Genuine Parts Company's impressive growth record points to a disciplined and conservative management team, there are nonetheless several risks to keep in mind.
First, Genuine Parts Company is historically a very acquisition-happy company, due to the fragmented nature of its industry. While it usually buys small companies, its $2 billion bet on Alliance Automotive Group in 2017 shows the firm is not afraid to occasionally make bold strategic bets. Besides its sheer size, this deal was notable because it shifts more of the company's mix into Europe, a region where Genuine Parts has not had much of a presence until recently.
While Alliance Automotive appears to have many similarities to Genuine Parts Company, including a similar product mix, acquisitive growth strategy, and leading market share positions, there are no guarantees that the integration process and expected synergies will play out as management hopes.
Fortunately, management's track record on M&A is solid, so the company deserves the benefit of the doubt. The company also paid about 10 times adjusted EBITDA for Alliance, which seems to be a reasonable valuation for this type of business.
However, large-scale international expansion still comes with plenty of risks that need to be monitored going forward, especially if the company tries to make more Alliance-sized (or larger) deals in the future.
Genuine Parts Company's business can also be impacted any given quarter by volatile currency rates (25% of the business is now outside of the U.S.), industrial production trends, and the health of the auto market.
While the aftermarket business is generally much steadier than the broader economy, the company's industrial business is less predictable because the industries in which it operates can be highly cyclical, resulting in sales and earnings growth that can be a bit lumpy.
However, none of these factors seem likely to impair the company's long-term earnings power.
Amazon is always worth a mention when discussing threats to distribution-based businesses. Fortunately, Genuine Parts Company possesses several advantages that seem to further protect its business from Amazon.
NAPA's extensive distribution network enables it to make rapid deliveries to repair shops (which require fast turnaround times for customers), the NAPA brand (which accounts for about 90% of Genuine Parts Company's U.S. auto aftermarket products) is trusted by shops and consumers, and having a brick-and-mortar location can help customers ensure they are purchasing the right replacement part (i.e. a hands-on shopping experience is helpful given some of the complexities involved in auto parts).
Simply put, it would probably be challenging for even Amazon's supply chain and logistics network to rival Genuine Parts Company's given the quick turnaround times demanded by customers and the brand equity Genuine Parts Company has built up over the decades.
Meanwhile, another longer-term risk to keep in mind is that NAPA auto parts specializes in components for traditional, internal-combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.
In the coming decades, electric vehicles could account for a large and fast-growing segment of the global vehicle market. In fact, according to data from Bloomberg, electric vehicles are projected to cost the same as their internal-combustion counterparts by 2022, potentially creating an inflection point for demand.
The risk for Genuine Parts Company is that electric vehicles are generally more reliable and less maintenance intensive than ICE cars because they have far simpler designs. As a result, cars may last longer and require less aftermarket parts in the future.
Fortunately, this risk doesn't seem like one that will materially impact the company for many years, if not decades, given the low penetration rate of electric vehicles today.
The rise of driverless cars is another long-term risk and could result in a significant number of consumers subscribing to car-sharing services, in which fleets of electric vehicle robo taxis ferry them wherever they need to go, at a much lower overall cost than individual vehicle ownership.
That, in turn, could result in the world's total vehicle fleet size declining despite a still growing population. Self-driving vehicles would presumably be far more efficient and less likely to get in accidents as well, perhaps reducing needs for repairs. However, just like with electric vehicles, this risk is likely far off in the future with many uncertainties.
At the end of the day, the company's large, highly fragmented, and slow-changing markets help mitigate most of these risks. Over the short to medium term, the biggest area to watch is Genuine Parts's ability to profitably grow its business in international markets. This is critical to the company's ability to achieve management's long-term financial targets.
Genuine Parts Company generates consistent free cash flow, maintains a conservative balance sheet, operates in a slow-changing industry, sells relatively recession-resistant products (as far as industrial firms go), and has grown its dividend for more than 60 consecutive years.
As a diversified global distributor, the company should continue to benefit from serving a broad range of fragmented markets as well, especially with new growth opportunities presented by its acquisition of Alliance Automotive Group.
Simply put, it's hard to find a more reliable dividend grower than Genuine Parts. While the company's growth numbers will never dazzle shareholders, slow and steady often wins the race.


No one thinks twice about coriander.
Except for one Siberian nomad of the Pazyryk Valley whose grave, dating from the fourth or third century BCE, held a leather-and-leopard-fur pouch with copper birds sewn on, covered with gold leaf. In the bag were cultivated coriander seeds.
Perhaps coriander fetched as high a price then as peppercorns did later for 15th-century Londoners. Since the Renaissance, coriander seed has transformed into the Cinderella of spices — at least in Europe and North America. But top billing still goes to chilies, cinnamon, or ginger.
It starts with a pear. "I'm a fruit dessert kind of guy," says Absinthe chef/owner Patrick Garland. Add chocolate sauce and ice cream, and it's "The Threepenny Opera." The dessert itself is Poire belle Hélène (originally inspired by Offenbach's 1864 operatic heroine) "with an Indian romp on it," says Garland. Coriander seeds are used in every part of the dish. The luxurious sweetness of the saffron-tangerine ice cream offsets bittersweet yet creamy chocolate, which is decorated with garam masala. Running down the sides of the poached pear: liquid gold. Really and truly. $9.
A roaring fire, ribs on the spit. Campfire coffee all around, then some fool in a Stetson bursts into song with "Tumbling Tumbleweeds." Epicuria's short ribs are tender, meaty, deboned. The sauce is rich and exotic. Anchos are fruity, fairly mild, with only a little nip detected. Coriander, a vagabond in South America since 15th-century conquis-tadors set up shop, has been making its way north ever since. Here, the seed is toasted, ground, and added in a rub. Eat this succulent dish with johnnycake. $14.
Typically, tourists to India stop in Delhi only to transfer elsewhere. Not Ron Farmer. As co-owner of The Green Door Restaurant, he will go there to research dahl. Naturally, he's dining at Shakahari — a 53-year-old restaurant within the 366-year-old walls of Old Delhi — which is famous for urad dahl, a tiny black lentil that, hulled and split, is creamy white. One of Farmer's versions features garam masala, chilies, and the Indian spice asafoetida. Rounding out the whole dish? Coriander. $2.20/100 g.

Natural Gas Engines Replace Diesel On Drilling Rigs
With diesel prices remaining high, Antero Resources and Patterson-UTI Drilling were seeking a viable option to reduce fuel costs, a major expense when operating drilling rigs. That's when the companies considered an innovative solution: the Waukesha VHP L7044GSI. Offered by GE's Waukesha gas engines and Waukesha-Pearce Industries, the rich-burn engine is 100% natural-gas-fired, reducing fuel costs while also meeting stringent state and federal mobile emissions guidelines.
The four companies recently finalized the first installation of three L7044GSIs with a well completion in Harrison County, W. Va., and plans are in the works to replace diesel engines powering drilling rigs in multiple other locations.
"The low cost nature of switching to natural gas-fired rigs versus the conventional diesel-fired rigs and the intense focus on reduced emissions make the Series Four 7044 a terrific choice. When considering investment in new equipment or improvements to existing equipment, reduced emissions and cost-saving solutions have been identified by Antero as a major area of opportunity," said Kevin Kilstrom, vice president of Production for Antero Resources. "GE and WPI worked with us to identify a solution and all indications suggest this engine, with its fuel gas tolerance and no load bank requirements, provide those solutions and offer operational benefits including reduced fuel truck traffic at the drill site through consumption of a local Appalachian fuel source."
"The L7044GSI can be easily exchanged with existing rig power generation drivers, almost to the point that they're 'plug and play,' as we've seen in this project. And it offers great cost advantages of natural gas versus diesel and dual-fuel, with natural gas available at less than half the price of diesel. Plus, you can reduce diesel transportation costs and potential liability because the engine can run on a much greater variation of readily available fuel sources, using everything from dry field gas to pipeline gas, including LNG and propane," added Fred Stow, director of sales for WPI.
Maintenance schedule helps reduce total cost of ownership
The L7044GSI gas engines also boast a reduced maintenance schedule versus other spark ignited and diesel engines, increasing its appeal to drill operators. "Compared to other spark-ignited lean-burn engines, rich-burn engines operate at lower cylinder pressures, providing longer operational times between oil changes, top-end overhauls and complete overhauls. This extends the service life of the engine to provide a higher rate of return on investment for the operational horsepower needs," said Brian White, president of GE's Waukesha gas engines.
Fuel flexibility also reduces emissions
With performance ratings at altitudes up to 8,000 feet with no de-rate, the L7044GSI uses Non-Selective Catalyst Reduction (NSCR) technology — commonly referred to as a Three Way Catalyst (TWC) — achieving NOx, CO2 and VOC values much lower than lean-burn engines, which typically must be equipped with an expensive Selective Catalysis System (SCS) to meet emissions requirements. As NOx permitting requirements approach 0.5g/BHP/hour and below, rich-burn engines equipped with TWCs operate more cost effectively and provide greater return on investment.
While CO2 is the most significant greenhouse gas addressed globally, methane has 21 times the effect on the atmosphere, an advantage for rich-burn engines as they produce substantially less methane than other options. And since the EPA requires the inclusion of both CO2 and methane in carbon calculations, rich-burn engines deliver a better greenhouse gas profile. Further, formaldehyde emissions (the most significant of all the hazardous air pollutants emitted by engines) can be 10% less when using a rich-burn engine.
"We firmly believe the natural gas solution will give drilling contractors a reason to consider the L7044GSI for a number of reasons," said WPI's Stow. "It operates with a wide margin for both knock and misfire and has a high tolerance for fuel composition. At lower NOx levels, lean-burn engines operate in an increasingly narrow window, and that limits fuel flexibility and makes them more sensitive to site conditions. This is an engine that has the power to change an industry."

COTA winners and losers
By Chris EstradaMay 24, 2021, 7:00 AM EDT
A look at the winners and losers from NASCAR's inaugural weekend at Circuit of the Americas…
Chase Elliott – Earned his first win as the reigning Cup Series champion. Became the inaugural Cup winner at COTA. Gave Hendrick Motorsports its record-tying 268th win in Cup competition and Chevrolet its 800th Cup win. Not a bad day's work.
Kyle Busch – Two-time Cup champion won inaugural Xfinity race at COTA. Now just two wins shy of the century mark in the series. Has earned at least one win in 17 Xfinity seasons, passing Mark Martin to take the record.
Todd Gilliland – First NASCAR national series winner at COTA. He claimed Saturday's Camping World Truck Series race. Recovered from a pit road penalty during the Stage 1 break (crew member over the wall too soon) to claim the victory.
Ross Chastain – Finished fourth to set a career-best mark in Cup. His two previous top 10 finishes in Cup came at the Daytona 500 in 2019 (10th) and this year (seventh).
Chase Briscoe – Another career-best Cup finish, this time for the Stewart-Haas Racing rookie in sixth place.
Michael McDowell – Seventh-place finish gives him five top 10s this season, his most in a single Cup campaign.
Race control – Poor conditions in the rain led to visibility issues that begat two major wrecks on Sunday. NASCAR Vice President of Competition Scott Miller admitted post-race that the sanctioning body could've reacted sooner. "It's a learning experience for all of us," he said. "We will learn. We will be better next time."
Martin Truex Jr., Cole Custer, Bubba Wallace, Christopher Bell and Kevin Harvick – The five drivers eliminated across those two wrecks. Harvick was particularly upset about racing in the rain, telling NBC Sports' Dustin Long that he had "never felt more unsafe in (his) whole racing career, period."
Austin Cindric – 25th-place result didn't fully represent his day. He qualified third and finished inside the top five in both stages. But in the final stage, his car's front drive disappeared and caused him to fall out of contention.
Daniel Suarez – Came off top-10 finish at Dover, only to have hopes dashed early at COTA. Had to start from the rear, then suffered transmission problems on Lap 8. Later received both a speeding penalty and a one-lap penalty for pitting outside his box on Lap 46. Finished 33rd.


I was out looking for artists that might be interested in submitted art to my new books. No luck in that department, but a lot in the looking for awesome pics of Zatanna one.
Here are some artists. Make sure you go to their DA page as well and tell them how good they are.


Great video, in my view…! And it continues to add "validation data" to what was already presented by Corey Goode, David Wilcock, and Dr. Jerome Corsi about Trump running for President.
Several have pointed out this video (created/reposted by Storm Scoops} and I'm getting that it is an excellent "summarizer video" of how we came from 9-11 to the now moment, and the "waking up" of many in the intelligence community and the military began.
