We had done a detailed astrology based research on the effects of Transit of Saturn through Libra on equity markets and had come out with the detailed report about the same at the very beginning period of the transit of Saturn through Libra in November 2011. And in that report, we had clearly mentioned the likely trend and likely highs that market will achieve till 02nd November 2014 i.e. the concluding date of transit of Saturn through Libra. Our report was right and bang on target with very good accuracy. (This report was prepared in March 2015, so we will keep on evaluating the performance of the same from time to time) (December 2011 low was 4531 on Nifty and on 3è11è2014 Nifty was 8322(83% up move) and on 04è03è2015 Nifty was 9119(101% up move) (One of the most important findings of our research is; Last transit euphoria always continues for first three to five months in next transit.) After the completion of that transit of Saturn through Libra, how the equity markets will perform in the transit of Saturn through Scorpion? Our success of previous research report gave us enough motivation, enthusiasm, energy and reason to proceed ahead with another thorough ASTROLOGY based research report about the likely effects of transit of Saturn on equity markets when passing through Scorpion. It also gave us another opportunity to improve upon ourselves, compared to last reports' performance. The period of current transit of Saturn in Scorpio is spread from 03rd November 2014 till 26th January 2017, making it a total of almost 27 (twenty seven) months time. Scorpio is the owner of the EIGHTH house in natural horoscope, which, in general, is considered a very bad and inauspicious place for any planet to acquire, to be placed in or pass through. And if, from such an inauspicious house, a highest grade malefic planet like Saturn passes through, some unexpected and damaging events are sure or most likely to happen or occur. The owner of Scorpio, Planet Mars and transiting planet Saturn are inimical to each other; so likely damage could be more than anticipated. While transiting through Scorpio, Saturn will have its tenth aspect on fifth house of natural horoscope, which is owned by Planet Sun and the fifth house is considered as the house of speculation in general. And the house of speculation is always taken into consideration on priority basis while calculating effects as regards any speculative activity including equity markets. As planet Saturn and planet Sun are considered as son and father in astrology, but inimical planets to each other, so the aspect of Saturn on fifth house owned by Sun will cause very high volatility and conditions of uncertainty in equity markets together with good rounds of highs and lows throughout this period of transit. After some years of togetherness, the relationship between the two (father and son) had gone sour, so in the initial 10 degrees markets will remain more or less good to very good but with definitely some rounds of volatility. Hence, in initial 10 degrees of transit of Saturn, markets will enter into bullish scenario and will make good and new highs. And these highs can be counted from the levels where the Nifty was, at the start of this transit of Saturn in scorpion, on 3rd November 2014 (Nifty was 8322 on 03rd November 2014). In order to understand the same in time period way, we divide the total period of transit, which is 27 months, into three parts, so one part works out to be, of nine months. Hence, the first part of nine months starts from 03rd November 2014 till 02nd August 2015. As per our calculations, markets are expected to make good and new highs in these nine months period (Nifty reached its highest level on 04è03è2015 at 9119). Now to understand it in other way, the total period of transit of a planet is always 30 degrees through one house and it's common for all planets. We divide this transit of planets in three parts of 10 degrees each. It's divided in three parts, as some planets work with full strength in first part, some in second and some in third part because of their speed in transit. Being the slowest moving planet among all the nine planets, Saturn works with full strength in last ten (10) degrees of the transit. Hence, the actual highest malefic and inimical effects on the markets will be witnessed and visible in last phase of this transit of Saturn through scorpio. Saturn has already crossed the initial 10 degrees in transit on 11th February 2015, But as Saturn was retrogate (reverse motion) from 15th March 2015 till 02nd August 2015, there were be several rounds of volatility and attempts and reattempts to reach the top in this period as well as in the period after the completion of retrogate motion of planet Saturn, till the recompletion of initial 10 degrees of transit which was completed by 31è10è2015. That means, the time period for the markets to achieve the good and new highs and remain volatile, gets extended by three months, till the end of October 2015 which was actually 2nd August 2015 because of retrogate motion of Saturn. Top grade benefic planet Jupiter was exalted in transit in Cancer Rashi and remained in that house of exaltation till second week of July 2015. From there it had its fifth aspect on Saturn transiting through scorpio, so that fifth aspect of Jupiter reduced the ill causing powers of Saturn to some extent till second week of July 2015. This also suggests a volatile market condition on the cards for next three to six months time due to these transitory effects of planets. (Nifty levels explained hereafter echoes our research report views. Nifty was 8845 on 15è04è2015 went down to 7940 on 12è06è2015 moved up again to 8655 on 23è07è2015 went down sharply till 7539 on 08è09è2015 and again gave a smart up move till 8336 on 26è10è2015) Period between the first ten degrees and last ten degrees will be a period of sideways to negative moves and that middle ten degrees period will make a base for the take off of next move of the equity markets. In order to understand it more easily, the period from 02è08è2015 till 02è05è2016 will be a period of sideways to negative moves. Later on, in last ten degrees of transit or say in last nine months of the 27 months calculated as earlier which starts from first week of May 2016 till last week of January 2017, markets will witness a negative scenario and a continuous fall shall be visible, till the Saturn moves out of the Scorpio and this fall will continue into first three to five months of next transit of Saturn through Sagittarius as well. This fall can take the markets down deeper than anticipated by one and all. So here we can conclude that, highest level achieved by the markets, between the period of 3rd November 2014 and 31st October 2015, will not be broken positively or towards upper side in next 18 (Eighteen) Months, counted from 31st October 2015, as the actual highest Malefic and Inimical effect of Transit of Saturn will be felt, after the completion of transit of initial 10 degrees in October 2015. And markets will go in to tail spin, after October 2015, slowly and slowly, and will make the NEW LOW, much lower than what was hit in 2015 or lower than what would be hit in 2016, before the end of first half of 2017. Even though the transit of Saturn in scorpio will end in last week of January 2017, but as our research has shown that the last transit euphoria always continues for first three to five months in next transit, so we believe the bottom of the markets will be hit in first half of 2017. Scorpio Rashi individuals and Companies will face the highest heat in this transit of Saturn in Scorpio.

The Five Biggest Embarrassments to American Democracy
By Daniel Murphy
Wars in Iraq aside, there is nothing more amusing than governmental ineptitude on a federal level. Let's make that clear up front. The programming on C-Spans 1 and 2 is testament to that. But just like some off-Broadway shows are worth the trip downtown, so too does small-time politics have its charms.
It's the beauty of democracy, really: Every day, puffed-up, self-important citizens are invited to participate in local government, and every day, these mentally imbalanced people accept the challenge. Whether playing the role of maniacal elected official or just answering the call of duty as an unreasonably concerned citizen, there is a place where you can leave your unique footprint in the annals of "things that won't make much of a difference in the long run anyway."
But if it's simply entertainment you're after, you could do a lot worse than kicking back with a bucket of popcorn at your next city council meeting. With any luck, someone there will be as certifiable as the folks below.
Racist School Board Meeting
Wow, that was a quick fall from grace. One minute the guy's being applauded, the next he's unleashing a stream of racist slurs from here to China (literally). From the context of the video you can't quite pin down exactly what it is he's angry about, but if I had to guess I would say it has something to do about the food in the cafeteria. Apparently, the tandoori chicken served during "Indian Food Day" didn't go over well with this man.
Steve Rocco on Drug Reform
Proof that even in real life the O.C. is a black hole of competency: In 2004, two people ran for the elected office of trustee of the Orange Unified School District Board -- and this guy won. (Presumably, the other guy was either a vampire or, worse, a fiscal liberal.) Somehow, my never having heard about this guy's "death attempts" by the son of Albertson's CEO ("he's dead") is a result of "the drug situation trying to protect their...whatever." Well played, Orange County citizens!
City Council Attack
There's more overacting in this video than in a Spanish soap opera -- from the bloodcurdling screams to the tumble to the floor to the judge's order to "stop that woman from leaving the courtroom!" to the random woman at the bottom of the screen shaking her head for an entire twenty seconds in either extreme disapproval or approval with extreme attitude. How can they get any work done with all this awesome action going on?!
Detroit Shouting Match
If you like your city council meetings tense and rife with the constant threat of physical violence, then Detroit is for you! Featuring verbal gems like "You're not my Daddy!" and "Be respectful -- you may not do that at home, but you're gonna do that up in hea" (along with several not-at-all-veiled references to the giant cartoon monster Shrek), this meeting is like one of those movie scenes that escalates from a simple misunderstanding into an all-out bar fight with random cowboys throwing each other over tables.
Crazy Man at City Council Meeting
Any video that starts off with a rogue helicopter pilot gets my seal of approval. Here are some things we learn: There's no ice in the arena because someone had their hand in the pie, boy scouts get scared easily, this guy may be harboring a "wife" in his basement against her will, the helicopter was right near the magnolia tree, "lemon-headed" is a surprisingly effective curse word when shouted with irrational rage, and you can say the word "pussy" in a North Carolina City Council meeting and they will still politely thank you for coming.

Need help with the ATI TEAS®?
Whether you are looking for test-taking advice, need some handy flashcards, or want to get a better score on the TEAS, I'm here to help you make it happen. You'll find a variety of free TEAS resources here, plus information about my online TEAS prep course.
This website is the product of my passion for helping busy students break through their education barriers—and there aren't many barriers bigger than the ATI TEAS®!
That's my goal for you here!
In 2015, I began teaching a TEAS prep course at a San Diego college. It filled up quickly each semester. Many students were adults returning to school for a career change—already busy with work, family, and prerequisites.
To help these busy students succeed, I developed material beyond the standards recommended by my school district and targeted areas where I saw students having the most difficulty. The result? Custom lessons and study guides that my students loved… plus great TEAS scores for them.
Even with the success of the class, I knew there had to be a better way. The class met at night—students drove through rush-hour traffic, gave up time with their families, and had to balance already full schedules.
I imagined a TEAS prep course that was more convenient, more affordable, and more comprehensive than the classroom setting. I've used my professional teaching experience and education to create a unique TEAS prep program, Prenursing Smarter.
My goal is to create a program that combines teaching and tutoring—an independent study system that works for busy students.
By the end of 2017, Prenursing Smarter had expanded into an full online course with more than 50 modules, and I'm proud to say that Prenursing Smarter students have taken the TEAS, got the scores they wanted, and moved on to nursing school. Yay!
Prenursing Smarter is still growing. In 2018, I plan on developing the online premium course curriculum while also expanding the free content. It's going to be an exciting year!
You probably want to know my qualifications. Let me share those with you now!
I have a master's degree in journalism from Northwestern University. My undergraduate degree is from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where I double majored in genetics and agricultural journalism. I earned a 4.0 in every journalism class, worked in a top genetics lab, received merit scholarships, and regularly landed on the Dean's List.
That's not to say college was easy! I would freak out, get overwhelmed, and even bombed some important tests. College really taught me how to focus my studying, get better at taking exams, and manage my time. It also taught me to keep going.
One test, one challenge, or even one bad semester, does not dictate the rest of your life.
After grad school, I tutored to supplement my journalism career. (Uh, being a reporter is tough career choice.) Gradually, I committed more and more to teaching and tutoring at the college level.
I am a Level II CRLA Internationally Certified tutor, which is a specialized certification for post-secondary education tutors. I also have advanced training in online learning and tutoring English language learners. Previously, I helped manage a team of college tutors, including training college tutors for online and classroom settings.
I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to achieve his or her professional goals. I'm passionate about helping students break through academic challenges and succeed.
Whether you are a full-time student, busy parent, CNA, LVN, or looking to get started in health care, your success is my goal. I understand the time pressures and the challenges of returning to school—and fitting school into a busy schedule. My online TEAS prep course is based on what works best for my students, and I'm excited to share these strategies with you!
1. Follow me on Pinterest!
I'd love to share my TEAS study boards for every subject with you.

Orchard Valley Middle School eighth-grader Andy Lee made a believer out of the school's librarian Frank Indriso, and a 6x6 table display in the school's instructional media center is now devoted to Lee's impressive roller coaster that he painstakingly crafted out of K'NEX, building kits that feature toy bricks, rods and connectors. The model takes one's breath away, as a ride on an actual coaster of this design most certainly would.
In fact, Lee took the roller coaster challenge one step further, and after completing the original model, he "went custom" on two additional coasters. He estimates that he has spent 30-45 minutes a day, during split lunch or study hall on most days, linking more than 700 pieces and using battery power to make it an operational coaster. The display, which showcases Lee's patience, ingenuity and creativity, often attracts interest and questions from his classmates who have watched its daily growth.
The thought of that is, to Lee, as exhilarating as the experience of riding his favorite coaster "Fahrenheit" at Hershey Park.
And the thought of taking it down at year's end?
"It will break my heart to take it apart," he said. "I think we should leave it in here as a memorial."

Girls Who Lie
"Forbidden Iceland" #2.
May 30, 2021 | by Dimitris Passas | 0 Comments
Eva Björg Ægisdóttir returns with the second installment in the "Forbidden Iceland" saga featuring detective Elma, a young police officer who lives in Akranes, a town on the west coast of Iceland and deals with a number of complex investigations along with her limited circle of colleagues. Akranes is also Ægisdóttir's hometown, even though today she resides in Reykjavik. Her debut, The Creak on the Stairs, has been more than well-received by the global readership and Eva established her name as one of the most prominent contemporary Icelandic crime authors. Even though I really enjoyed the first book, I need to state that Girls Who Lie is a much more mature novel where the author proves that she has developed her writing style as is evident to whoever reads this well-crafted text. In terms of genre categorization, this is a straightforward police procedural with some splashes of mystery and whodunit. The first half of the book unravels slowly as the investigative team runs to a brick wall every time they think that they may have found a valid lead, but in the second part, the tempo accelerates and beware of a major rug-pulling moment at the beginning of the third and final act. Ægisdóttir plays with the reasonable assumptions that the reader makes as he follows the story and the twist comes out of the blue thus making the reading experience all the more enthralling. The themes that the author explores are similar to her first writing attempt, the well-hidden secrets of families, the devastating effect of lies and their consequences, the plague of bullying and intimidation to weaker children and many more.
Seven months earlier, a young, troubled woman, Mariana, disappeared from the face of the earth leaving only a cryptic note to her only daughter, Hekla, and the case is initially dismissed by the CID as either a case of suicide or they think that Mariana vanished of her own accord. When the body of a young woman turns up in a cave in the Grabrok lava fields, Elma and her team quickly identify the victim as Mariana. Thus now it is a homicide case and the lead detectives will have to return to their initial investigation that took place half a year earlier when they were still just searching for a missing woman. Soon, they realize that their attempts to find Mariana have been less than satisfying and there are a lot of holes and unanswered questions that now are part of a serious murder case. Elma, who is the protagonist in the story, is drawn into a world of dysfunctional family relations, abuse, and horrible secrets from the past that resurface as the plot moves forward. At the same time, we get some glimpses into her personal life and state of mind as the author makes sure that we get some time peering into Elma's inner thought process and become acquainted with some distressing events of her past that haunt her until today.
Hekla is a teenage girl who grew up with a mother that constantly reprimanded and belittled her and she was placed in foster care at the age of three after Marianna abandoned her all alone in the house and got lost on a drug-fueled binge. Child Protection Services intervened and sent Hekla to a wealthy middle-aged couple who came to love her as a true daughter. After a while, it was clear that Hekla preferred to stay with her support family and wished as little contact with Marianna as possible. This fact elicited a lot of tension between the girl's biological and foster mother, as they had to quarrel for nearly all the matters regarding Hekla's upbringing. Hekla seems to be a person of key interest to the investigation and Elma's instinct is further confirmed when she realizes that the girl has a lot of secrets and catches her lying in some circumstances. Through Hekla's questioning, several crucial points emerge and the investigators begin to question her behavior while at the same time deciding to look more closely in her circle of friends and acquaintances. Hekla's story is a bit sad and it may distress a sensitive reader as in many parts she narrates her nightmarish childhood, living with an unstable parent who couldn't even take care of herself. At some point, Elma wonders if the Child Protection Service's insistence to keep a biological family united, even when extreme cases of abuse are involved, serves any true purpose and broods about the lack of a proper, meaningful orientation of relevant institutions.
Ægisdóttir employs, once again, the double narrative and we follow the story through the penetrating description of the stages of an active murder investigation while at the same time, we witness the narration of a woman whose identity is not revealed who chronicles her life after giving birth to an unwanted child. These interjecting chapters add a more mysterious flavor to the text and the reader keeps wondering about the connection of the woman's sad tale with the main plotline that revolves around Mariana's murder. Of course, everything is explained in the last part of the novel that leaves a rather sweet taste and meets the expectations of the most demanding crime fiction fans. There is nothing missing from the mix and it should be also mentioned that the setting of the novel is wonderfully outlined by the author. It helps, of course, that Akranes is the place where she grew up, so she has first-hand knowledge of the place and the peculiarities of the small Icelandic community. The characterization is fulfilling and we very quickly become comfortable with the main characters and familiar with the relationships between them. Perhaps, I would like some more background information concerning Elma's personal history as it is hinted that she has to bear some highly traumatic scars from her past.
I found Girls Who Lie to share some elective affinities with Yrsa Sigurðardóttir's latest "Freya and Huldar" series as both authors' books seem to adopt a similar narrative pattern while at the same time retaining a strict police procedural character that is reminiscent of the mood and tone of other momentous Nordic crime writers such as Ragnar Jonasson and Arnaldur Indridason. Eva Björg Ægisdóttir is now in the same league as the most important names in the genre and her work leaves promises for an even more enticing future. It seems that her talent equals her great looks and I'm sorry to have to wait for a full year for the next installment to arrive. It should be noted that the Icelandic author stated in an online interview that she is currently writing the fourth novel in the series, but, unfortunately, Girls Who Lie is the latest English translation of her work. Looking forward to more.

Tim "nawwk" Jonasson and Kevin "HS" Tarn, who had topped the scoreboard in the close victory over Virtus.pro earlier on Friday, then spearheaded GamerLegion's comeback, with the former Uruguay line-up ultimately finishing the first half with seven rounds on the board.
The Estonian player went huge in the second half pistol with three quick kills inside B, setting his team up for a 9-8 lead. It would not last, though, as once Epsilon had money in the bank they took control of proceedings and kept the GamerLegion offense in check, losing just two more rounds before locking down the map.
Rip GamerLegion played there worst map twice..... "Inferno"
No, not french. I actually think epsilon did deserve to top the group. But GSL groups with bo1 it's really a joke.
I hope that the last bo3 will start much earlier than what is scheduled.

Apple Black Friday sale: Up to £160/$200 gift cards
Apple's four-day Black Friday 2021 sale is here until 29 November! Here are all the savings on iPhone, iPad, Mac and more.
By David Price
Editor, Macworld NOV 26, 2021 3:26 pm PST
Apple's special offers for Black Friday 2021 are now live, in a four-day event that will last until 29 November.
As has become traditional for the company, the event involves the bundling of gift cards with purchases rather than discounts on the price of Apple products. In other words, you're making the saving on the next product you buy, not this one.
The value of the gift card varies depending on the product you buy, and can be as little as £40/$50 (with an Apple Watch SE, for example) or as much as £160/$200 (with an iMac 27in).
Click here for Apple's Black Friday event page
Here's a list of the gift cards you can pick up with purchases direct from Apple between 26 and 29 November 2021.
iPhone 12 mini: £40/$50
iPhone 12: £40/$50
iPhone SE: £40/$50
AirPods (2nd gen, 3rd gen, Pro or Max: Up to £60/$75
Apple Watch Series 3: £40/$50
Apple Watch SE: £40/$50
iPad Pro 11in (2021): £80/$100
iPad Pro 12.9in (2021): £80/$100
Mac mini: £80/$100
MacBook Air: £80/$100
MacBook Pro 13in: £80/$100
iMac 27in: £160/$200
Apple TV 4K: £40/$50
Apple TV HD: £40/$50
Selected Beats products: Up to £40/$50
Apple Pencil, AirTags and other selected accessories: Up to £40/$50
You'll notice that the offers do not apply to Apple's most recent products. The iPhone 13 range, the Apple Watch Series 7 and the 14in and 16in MacBook Pros, for example, do not come with gift cards. For the biggest discounts on those devices, see our round-ups of the best iPhone 13 deals, best Apple Watch Series 7 deals and best 2021 MacBook Pro deals.
But these are still decent offers, not least because stock shortages mean the actual discounts on products at other retailers may not be as good this year as in previous ones. And the value of the gift cards compares favourably to 2020, when the smallest card was £20/$25 and the biggest was £120/$150. (In 2019 Apple was slightly more generous, with cards ranging from £20/$25 to £160/$200.)

Newly Free Britney Spears Speaks Out On Diane Sawyer Interview—'Ma'am I'm A Catholic Slut!'
December 13, 2021, 2:49 pm*
Britney Spears has posted another update on how her life is going post-conservatorship, and as usual, she is giving the fans exactly what they want by speaking her truth and going after the people who wronged her when she was too young to defend herself effectively. In a long Instagram post in which she talked about enjoying the simple freedoms of life, sleeping better, and the things she's getting for her family members for Christmas, Spears called out decorated American television broadcast journalist Diane Sawyer for an old interview.
During the former conservatorship, Spears was legally barred from speaking on certain issues such as the media coverage that picked her apart in the early years of her career. Now freed from those constraints, the artist has begun to cut loose and turn the spotlight on those who mistreated her, including Sawyer, who she accused of approaching an interview with hostility during a time when Spears was nearly too depressed to speak.
"Do we dare forget the Diane Sawyer interview in my apartment almost 20 years ago?" she wrote. "What was it with the 'you're in the wrong' approach? Geeze… and making me cry?? Seriously though… I lived in my apartment for a year and never spoke to anyone… my manager put that woman in my home and made me talk to her on national television. She asked me if I had a shopping problem!!! When did I have a problem with shopping?? When I never left my apartment???"

— brittany spanos (@ohheybrittany) December 13, 2021
The interview Spears is referring to took place in 2003 shortly after the pop icon's breakup with Justin Timberlake, which the media hyper-focused on for months, and was heavily featured in the docu-series Framing Britney Spears. Spears was just 21 at the time and clearly in a very vulnerable place while being barely old enough to legally drink, but Sawyer did not hold back.
Much of the interview focused on Spears' body and the way she dressed during shows and for magazine photoshoots during a time when there was considerable hysteria over the "message" she was supposedly sending to young girls, who counted among her many fans. The journalist showed her several photos of herself in clothing considered "provocative" or whatever the line was at the time, seeming to try and press the young pop star into saying that she had gone too far with her outfits.
The shopping question was actually a straight accusation of Spears having a shopping addiction, which may have simply arisen out of the various stereotypes that were placed on the young woman by the public. Additionally, Sawyer questioned Spears about the Timberlake breakup, heavily suggesting that the whole thing was her fault.
"You did something that caused him so much pain…so much suffering," said Sawyer. "What did you do?"
Spears ended up crying during the interview in the middle of these extremely personal questions, all for something the young singer never wanted to do but had it forced on her by her father.
"Something I never shared when I had that big breakup years ago was that I couldn't talk afterwards," Spears wrote on Instagram "I never spoke to anyone for a very long time… I was in shock… pretty lame of my dad and three men to show up at my door when I could hardly speak… two days later they put Diane Sawyer in my living room…they forced me to talk!!!"
As angry as she is that her dad made her do that, she remains irritated with the way Sawyer treated her, asking her questions about whether she was "a woman or a girl," which is incredibly condescending when the subject is almost 22 even while taking advantage of someone too young to fully see how she was being taken advantage of.
Not anymore, though.
"I was a baby… I was almost 22 and didn't understand… but I fucking know now," Spears added. "She said 'a woman or a girl…' I would like to say now, 'Ma'am, I'm a Catholic slut!!! You wanna join me at a mass and I can serve your husband my certificate on shopping for anonymous players???' I should spend a thousand dollars if I want every day of my life and she can kiss my white a–."
2/2Even that some of it is so sad, it is so great to see how she overcame all of it!❤ #britneyspears #freedbritney #britneyarmy #britney #dianesawyer #kevinhart pic.twitter.com/WaFe7PpBWF
— Absolute Britney || #JusticeForBritney (@absolutebritney) December 13, 2021
Most of the Instagram post, however, was about how well Spears is doing with her restored freedom, able to actually withdraw $300 of her own money to buy gifts, chocolate, socks, and wine like a normal person. She repeatedly stated that she is "embarrassed" for the people who hurt and took advantage of her over all those years, as well as for the entire government of California for allowing it to go on. She also highly recommends the makeup brand Casa Gaga for girls and has rediscovered the joy of hot chocolate.

NVIDIA Teases GeForce RTX 2080 Performance Numbers, Announces Ansel RTX
by Nate Oh on August 22, 2018 3:50 PM EST
Concluding their Gamescom festivities for their newly-introduced GeForce RTX 20-series, NVIDIA has revealed a bit more about the hardware, its features, and its expected performance this evening. Tonight NVIDIA is announcing the new Ansel RTX features in GeForce Experience, as well as some game performance metrics for the GeForce RTX 2080 up against the GeForce GTX 1080. After recent hands-on demos featuring real-time raytracing, NVIDIA is offering some numbers for out-of-the-box and Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) performance in traditionally rendered games.
NVIDIA RTX Support for Games
As of August 20, 2018
Game Real-Time Raytracing Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS)
Ark: Survival Evolved - Yes
Assetto Corsa Competizione Yes -
Atomic Heart Yes
Battlefield V Yes -
Control Yes -
Dauntless - Yes
Enlisted Yes -
Final Fantasy XV - Yes
Fractured Lands - Yes
Hitman 2 - Yes
Islands of Nyne - Yes
Justice Yes
JX3 Yes
MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries Yes
Metro Exodus Yes -
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - Yes
ProjectDH Yes -
Remnant: From the Ashes - Yes
Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass - Yes
Shadow of the Tomb Raider Yes -
The Forge Arena - Yes
We Happy Few - Yes
Starting with NVIDIA's DLSS – and real-time raytracing for that matter – we already know of the supported games list. What they are disclosing today are some face-value 4K performance comparisons and results. For DLSS, for now we can only say that it uses tensor core-accelerated neural network inferencing to generate what NVIDIA is saying will be high-quality super sampling-like anti aliasing. Though for further technical information, this is a project NVIDIA has been working on for a while, and they have published some blogs and papers with some more information on some of the processes used. At any rate, the provided metrics are sparse on settings or details, and notably measurements include several games rendered in HDR (though HDR shouldn't have a performance impact).
Otherwise, NVIDIA presented a non-interactive Epic Infiltrator 4K demo that was later displayed on the floor, comparing Temporal Anti Aliasing (TAA) to DLSS, where the latter provided on-average near-identical-or-better image quality but at a lower performance cost. In this case, directly improving framerates. To be perfectly honest, I spent the entire floor time talking with NVIDIA engineers and driver/software developers, so I have no pictures of the floor demo (not that anything less than a direct screenshot will really do it justice). Ultimately, the matter of DLSS is somewhat nuanced and there isn't much we can add at the moment.
Overall, the idea is that even in traditionally rasterized games without DLSS, the GeForce RTX 2080 brings around 50% higher performance than the GeForce GTX 1080 under 4K HDR 60Hz conditions. Because this excludes real-time raytracing or DLSS, this would be tantamount to 'out of the box' performance. Though there were no graphics settings or driver details to go with these disclosed framerates, so I'm not sure I'd suggest reading into these numbers and bar charts one way or another.
Lastly, NVIDIA announced several new features, filters, and supported games for GeForce Experience's Ansel screenshot feature. Relating to GeForce RTX, one of the features is Ansel RT for supported ray-traced games, where a screenshot can be taken with a very high number of rays, unsuitable for real-time but not an issue for static image rendering.
Ansel RTX also leverages a similar concept to the tensor core accelerated DLSS with 'AI Up-Res' super resolution, which also works for games not integrated with Ansel SDK.
In terms of the GeForce RTX performance, this is more-or-less a teaser of things to come. But as always with unreleased hardware, judgement should be reserved until objective measurements and further details. We will have much more to say when the time comes.

"Checkerboard" has some specific baggage that doesn't apply here. But yes, the concept is similar: it's a way to get a level of quality similar to rendering at 4K without the actual computational costs of fully rendering at that resolution.
maroon1 - Wednesday, August 22, 2018 - link
And thats look like a good technology for people have RTX 2070 and can not run some demanding games at 4K
You will get almost comparable quality of 4K but with performance cost similar to maybe 1800p

Now I see why Nvidia hasn't released any product roadmaps in a long while. More and more they're going to have to rely on these buzzword technologies to sell products.
wyatterp - Thursday, August 23, 2018 - link
Real time ray-tracing is a buzzword? Ray-tracing as a rendering technique is 3 decades old and is THE gold standard in rendering outside of games.

"NVIDIA presented a non-interactive Epic Infiltrator 4K demo that was later displayed on the floor, comparing Temporal Anti Aliasing (TAA) to DLSS, where the latter provided on-average near-identical-or-better image quality but at a lower performance cost. In this case, directly improving framerates."
How can an antialising technique with a "performance cost", whether high or low, improve frame rate? That is contradictory. Judging from the high increase in frame rate in the games that employ it (the graph isn't clear but I suppose that's what it shows), and by how Jensen Huang focused on deep learning's ability to super-sample low res images by "adding missing pixels" in his presenation, DLSS does not appear to be an antialising technique at all.
Rather, it looks like it is a pure super-sampler, just as its acronym says. My guess is that it allows games to be rendered internally at lower resolution (say 1440p, maybe even 1080p), then super-sample them to a 4K-equivalent resolution, and then output them as native 4K, and thus raise frame rate close to that of the lower internal resolution. Huang would not have presented that ability for no reason, and frankly, how else would it provide a performance gain?
An alternative idea might be to off-load game AI and physics to the tensor cores and raise frame rate by freeing the shaders from that task (something that might also be possible, but as a separate technique), but would that lead to so much higher frame rate? And why would that be called "super sampling"?
I don't actually object to the lower resolution super-sampling scenario by the way, providing it beats most blind tests. Super-sampling (or "resolution upscaling", which is the TV set term) has always been a lame technique with little to no benefit, but deep learning might actually make it viable.

"How can an antialising technique with a "performance cost", whether high or low, improve frame rate?"
He meant improved performance compared to TAA. That graph should've said "1080+TAA" and "2080+TAA".
If RTX 2080 is 40-50% faster than GTX 1080, then that should make it even faster than GTX1080Ti
With DLSS enabled, it would blow any pascal GPU out of water (even Titan V)
I don't think it will always be faster than the 1080TI based on the fact the TI has more memory and still has slightly faster memory throughput. This chart obviously makes a complex comparison difficult. I'm still excited for the 50% increase over the 1080, and more importantly, I'm on board with the move to Ray Tracing. I've yet to buy a high refresh rate monitor precisely because I don't need that assessment spoiling how I view games. I want the best possible IQ with 60FPS if possible. I still play console games which largely cling to 30FPS - so I even accept that somewhat on PC games, even though I really want 60FPS min in most games.
ThrakazogZ - Wednesday, August 22, 2018 - link
I'm guessing they may not be getting the amount of pre-orders, for what seems to be an overpriced card, that they hoped for. So they release a graph that shows no useful information, and claim 135% increased performance. The graph shows the 1080 goes to 1, while the 2080 goes all the way to 2.35.......the only thing that really tells us is that the tallest graph bar for the 2080 is 135% longer than the bar for the 1080, given the graphs scale. The best thing to do is wait for 3rd party testing to give us actual performance numbers. Until then, people need to resist the marketing hype, and remember that you should never pre-order something you know nothing about.
Batmeat - Wednesday, August 22, 2018 - link
Every Nvidia card release they ALWAYS have numbers to back it up. Something smells with this release of new cards and having no solid number comparisons. I'm holding off a pre-order.

Q: pgfplots: How to annotate an interval? For the following MWE, I would like to annotate an interval (e.g. [2, 4]) as illustrated in the desired output.
Additionally, I need to know how to stylize the vertical lines and the horizontal arrow?
\documentclass[border=1cm]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
    \begin{axis}[
    xmin=0,xmax=5
    ]
        \addplot[mark=none,blue] {x^2};

    \end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

A: For the text of the annotation, you can use the decorations.text tikz library.
For stylizing, you can add any options you need in the \draw command, here is an example:
\documentclass[border=1cm]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.14}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta}
\usetikzlibrary{decorations.text}

\begin{document}
    \begin{tikzpicture}
    \begin{axis}[
    xmin=0,xmax=5
    ]
    \addplot[mark=none,blue] {x^2};
    \draw[red, dashed] (2, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (2, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymax});
    \draw[green, thick, dotted] (4, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (4, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymax});
    \draw[blue, very thick, {Stealth}-{Stealth}, postaction={decoration={raise=3pt, text along path, text={some text},text align=center}, decorate}] (2,5) -- (4,5);
    \end{axis}
    \end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Edit:
As required by the OP, I've created the style \myline for the vertical lines (and also a \myarrow one for the arrow of the interval).
Moreover, I exaggerated with the tikz mania. As Torbjørn T. correctly pointed out, using a text along path is overkill for a straight line. You can just put a node above the path, with no need of the decorations.text library.
\documentclass[border=1cm]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.14}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta}
\tikzset{%
    myline/.style = {green, very thick, dashed},
    myarrow/.style = {blue, very thick, {Stealth}-{Stealth}},
}

\begin{document}
    \begin{tikzpicture}
    \begin{axis}[
    xmin=0,xmax=5
    ]
    \addplot[mark=none,blue] {x^2};
    \draw[myline] (2, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (2, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymax});
    \draw[myline] (4, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (4, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymax});
    \draw[myarrow] (2,5) -- node[above] {some text} (4,5);
    \end{axis}
    \end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Second edit:
I've created a pic with three args: initial x, final x and height of the arrow y (this last one could be substituted by a fixed value, if it is always the same, modifying the pic to use only two args).
\documentclass[border=1cm]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.14}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta}
\tikzset{%
    myline/.style = {green, very thick, dashed},
    myarrow/.style = {blue, very thick, {Stealth}-{Stealth}},
    pics/myint/.style n args={3}{code={%
            \draw[myline] (#1, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (#1, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymax});
            \draw[myline] (#2, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (#2, \pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymax});
            \draw[myarrow] (#1,#3) -- node[above] {some text} (#2,#3);
    }},
}

\begin{document}
    \begin{tikzpicture}
    \begin{axis}[
    xmin=0,xmax=5
    ]
    \addplot[mark=none,blue] {x^2};
    \pic {myint={2}{4}{5}};
    \end{axis}
    \end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Of course, with \pic {myint={2}{4}{5}};, the output is the same as the previous one.

Letter To The Editor…Cranky Rock Dam
4 March, 2015 By editor
Dear Rhi,
With all the interest in the Cranky Rock Dam and as a resident of Cranky Rock Road, I have often wondered about the origin of the name. I researched TROVE and came across the attached article from the Cowra Free Press in 1913 which suggests the road was originally called "Craggy Rock Road". There is also reference to "craggy masses of limestone rock" in the Belubula Caves in a report from Mr C S Wilkinson, Government Geologist to the Minister for Mines in September 1876 which may suggest the rock formations in the area were described in geological terms as "craggy". The First Edition Map of the Parish of Chaucer dated 1883 does not mention "Cranky Rock" but the Second Edition Map of the Parish of Chaucer dated 1895 shows the property "Cranky Rock".. The article from the Cowra Free Press was part of a report on a tour from Cowra to Canowindra and back to Cowra by the local councillors with the Shire Engineer and a reporter from the Canowindra Star- you can view the article via this link- http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/99613530?searchTerm=(cranky rock culvert) Perhaps other people may be able to confirm the origin of this unique name.

Despite the usefulness of the Domain Name System, there are some situations in which it doesn't pay to use it. There are other name-resolution mechanisms besides DNS, some of which may be standard with your operating system. Sometimes the overhead involved in managing zones and their name servers outweighs the benefits. On the other hand, there are circumstances in which you have no other choice but to set up and manage name servers. Following are some guidelines to help you make that decision.
...DNS is a must. Think of DNS as the lingua franca of the Internet: nearly all of the Internet's network services use DNS. That includes the World Wide Web, electronic mail, remote terminal access, and file transfer.
On the other hand, this doesn't necessarily mean that you have to set up and run zones by yourself for yourself. If you've got only a handful of hosts, you may be able to join an existing zone (see Chapter 3) or find someone else to host your zones for you. If you pay an Internet service provider for your Internet connectivity, ask if they'll host your zone for you, too. Even if you aren't already a customer, there are companies who will help out, for a price.
If you have a little more than a handful of hosts, or a lot more, you'll probably want your own zone. And if you want direct control over your zone and your name servers, you'll want to manage it yourself. Read on!
...you probably want DNS. By an internet, we don't mean just a single Ethernet of workstations using TCP/IP (see the next section if you thought that was what we meant); we mean a fairly complex "network of networks." Maybe you have a forest of AppleTalk nets and a handful of Apollo token rings.
If your internet is basically homogeneous and your hosts don't need DNS (say you have a big DECnet or OSI internet), you may be able to do without it. But if you've got a variety of hosts, especially if some of those run some variety of Unix, you'll want DNS. It'll simplify the distribution of host information and rid you of any kludgy host-table distribution schemes you may have cooked up.
...and that network isn't connected to a larger network, you can probably get away without using DNS. You might consider using Microsoft's Windows Internet Name Service (WINS), host tables, or Sun's Network Information Service (NIS) product.
But if you need distributed administration or have trouble maintaining the consistency of data on your network, DNS may be for you. And if your network is likely to soon be connected to another network, such as your corporate internet or the Internet, it'd be wise to start up your zones now.

'Is shrimp okay?' Being vegetarian in Tokyo, you get used to hearing questions like this all the time – the well-meaning but rather clueless attempts of restaurant wait staff to comprehend how and why someone would choose not to eat delicious yakiniku or the best sushi on the planet. Yet life has improved for the capital's long-misunderstood herbivores: as diners get increasingly health-conscious, we've seen farmers' markets become a regular feature on the urban landscape, more places are indicating which dishes on their menus are suitable for veggies, while the floor staff seem to be getting savvier (even if there are still plenty of exceptions). Still, sometimes you just want to go somewhere you can enjoy your meal with having to triple-check about whether there's bacon in the salad or katsuobushi flakes on the tofu. Read on for a comprehensive intro to vegetarian Tokyo – you'll start feeling hungry in no time.
This is a beautiful, inviting space that gets packed at lunchtime yet still retains an intimate atmosphere. It really is like finding the treasure at the end of a long hunt. The food, of course, is just as much a part of the reward. Their signature set lunch, Tamana Teishoku (¥1,890), includes about 40 different ingredients to maximise nutritional balance and incorporates traditional recipes.
A true rarity in Tokyo, this Ebisu café and restaurant serves up 100-percent vegan raw food at reasonable prices. In order to maintain those healthy enzymes, all ingredients are either completely raw or prepared at temperatures under 48 degrees, and of course you won't find any artificial additives or other chemicals here either.
Get meaty, meat-free fast food at Kichijoji's Deva Deva Café, which offers vegan alternatives like the chickpea 'Yogi Burger' and soymeat chicken nuggets. They also do takeaway, which is a tempting option when Inokashira Park is so close by.
Modelled after the kind of eatery you might find in New York's Lower East Side – complete with high ceilings, long counter and ample terrace seating – Eat More Greens draws a cosmopolitan crowd with the promise of meat-free taco rice and vegan pecan pie.
You'll first get sucked in by the garlic edamame beans. We have no idea what goes into that garlic sauce but it turns what is usually a fairly bland dish into something we now crave. Then you'll be seduced by the crispy vegan gyoza and the creamy 'detox curry'. But the more you visit Olu'Olu Café, it's not just the 'vegan junk food', as the owners call it on their blog, that will inspire you to return, it's also the atmosphere.
Well worth seeking out, this vegan café hidden amongst the used clothing shops in Koenji serves an eclectic menu, including pastas, taco rice and more inventive offerings like black soybean hummus and 'taramasalata' made from potato salad and amaranth.
Sweet tooth but still like to feel healthy? Allow us to introduce you to your new best friend. Vegan restaurant Ain Soph. Journey serves the fattest, fluffiest pancakes as a main meal set (¥1,400), served with vegan cheese, jam, cream, ice cream, nuts and fruit.
Vegetarians stranded in Roppongi have a haven at this Taiwanese veggie restaurant. Meat and fish are out at Chien-Fu, along with strong-smelling veg like onions, garlic and shallots – not that you'll notice.
There are several key reasons to visit Kamakura Fushikian, with the first and most obvious one being that it's tucked away in a light, bright and calm warehouse-style food market in Akihabara, which means respite from the chaos outside.
It's all about the vegetables, beans and – yes – brown rice at this long-running veggie stronghold in Omotesando, a staunch adherent to the 'whole food' philosophy. The terrace seating is a real draw in the warmer months, and they also do reasonably priced bento boxes.
While you can get veggie food at practically any Indian restaurant in Tokyo, few of them banish meat and fish from their menus altogether. 'Natural is healthy', say the folks at the 100% vegetarian Nataraj – and on this evidence, it's also damn tasty.
This tiny eatery, located in a quiet residential area between Nishi-Nippori and Tabata, is a true hidden gem. Using only fresh, seasonal veggies for all dishes, the chefs here are particular about bringing out the original tastes of the ingredients, forgoing all kinds of artificial seasoning.
The Sincere Garden spa on Aoyama-dori is home to an organic restaurant that's likely to appeal to vegetarians – especially female ones. Choose from a selection of veggie salads, curries and soups, including a Sri Lankan combo plate that's based on ayurvedic principles.
Shibuya's best vegetarian restaurant is tricky to find, but the generous lunch and dinner sets reward the effort. A casual setting, consistently interesting soundtrack and well-stocked library of Japanese and English 'zines further sweeten the deal.
The finest falafel shop in all of Tokyo, Kuumba makes stuffed-to-bursting sandwiches that are like starter and entree rolled into one. The menu is actually entirely vegan, but they're not the kind of place to make a fuss about stuff like that.
We weren't hugely impressed by this 'Hawaiian macrobiotics' eatery when it first opened in Hiroo, but Island Veggie has got much better over time. Everything on the menu is meat- and fish-free, and available for takeaway as a vegetarian bento box.
Housed in the basement of a children's bookstore in Omotesando, Crayon House Hiroba isn't exclusively vegetarian, but it's easy to put together a filling veggie meal from their ¥1,500 lunchtime buffet of nutritious organic grub.

Disney CEO Bob Iger: Those of Us in Positions to Influence Laws, Shape Culture...
Disney CEO Bob Iger attended a Sandy Hook Promise Benefit and referenced people in influential positions and suggested that those who shape culture "have an extra responsibility" to push gun control.
Sandy Hook Promise is the group with to whom country singer Tim McGraw donated concert proceeds for a gun control fundraiser in July 2015.
On April 16, 2015, Breitbart News pointed to McGraw's planned participation in the fundraiser and he responded to the coverage by telling MSNBC's Joe Scarborough, "I lead my life leading with my heart, I do the things that I can do and support the causes that I support, try to help in the areas where I can help, and I do that with my heart. If I have a decision to lead with my head or my heart, I'm going to lead with my heart every time."
The Hollywood Reporter noted that Iger, Barack Obama, and actor Matthew McConaughey all gathered in New York Tuesday, where they honored the work of Sandy Hook Promise and continued the push for more gun control.

थाना लोनी बार्डर क्षेत्रान्तर्गत हुई घटना में #GhaziabadPolice द्वारा की गई कठोर कार्यवाही- 3 अभियुक्त गिरफ्तार@Uppolice pic.twitter.com/zg6lHregKD
— GHAZIABAD POLICE (@ghaziabadpolice) June 14, 2021
Ghaziabad: The Uttar Pradesh Police has filed an FIR against Twitter and a few journalists and Congress leaders in connection with an elderly Muslim man who was assaulted in Ghaziabad and whose video with a fake narrative aimed at creating communal divide was put in the public domain and it went viral on social media.
A Samajwadi Party leader, prominently figures in this controversial video.
https://t.co/UQd5TE0cyj
The FIR was lodged at the Loni Border police station of Ghaziabad district on Tuesday forenoon on a complaint lodged by a police officer, who has alleged that the video was shared with the ulterior motive of inciting communal unrest.
The FIR has been filed by at the Loni Police station against The Wire, Rana Ayyub, Mohammad Zubair, Dr Shama Mohammed, Saba Naqvi, Maskoor Usmani, Slaman Nizami. The allegation against them is that without verifying the video they gave a communal the fact, started giving communal colour to the incident on Twitter.
On investigation by the Ghaziabad Police into the video of assault and beating up of the elderly man that went viral on social media, it was found that the elderly man, Abdul Samad, had come to Behta, Loni border from Bulandshahr on 5 June. From there, along with another person, he went to the residence of the main accused Parvesh Gujar at Banthla, Loni. After some time other boys Kallu, Arif, Adil and Mushahid came to Parvesh's house and started beating him along with Parvesh. According to the accused, Abdul Samad makes amulets, and their families were adversely affected by the amulets given by him. Because of this they had beaten him up. Abdul Samad was already known to Pravesh, Adil Kallu and others as amulets had been given by Abdul Samad to many people in the village. In this case, the main accused Parvesh Gujjar was the first to be arrested. On June 14, the other two accused Kallu and Adil also were arrested. Ghaziabad Police is investigating all angles and probing who all were behind concocting the fake video to create communal divide.
Even after the UP Police had ruled out any communal angle and had said Abdul Samad was attacked by six men – Hindus and Muslims – who were unhappy over the amulets he had sold them, NDTV quoted the UP police and at the same time gave communal colour to the incident by publishing the following:
"An elderly Muslim man was assaulted in Loni in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad district on June 5 while on his way to a mosque to offer prayers.The attackers allegedly abducted Abdul Samad from an autorickshaw and dragged him to a hut in a nearby forested area, where they reportedly shouted 'Jai Shri Ram' and 'Vande Mataram', which they forced him to shout as well, as they punched and beat him with wooden sticks."
Further the NDTV report said: "They reportedly also accused Mr Samad of being a Pakistani spy.One of the attackers – a young man wearing a white full-sleeve T-shirt and blue sweatpants – also threatened Mr Samad with a knife that he used to forcibly hack away at his beard.A video of the vile incident, in which Mr Samad can be seen pleading with his attackers, has been circulated online.The video shows at least two other young men attacking Mr Samad – one wearing a black shirt and red trousers, and another in a light-blue T-shirt and grey trousers." I WAS ON MY WAY WHEN I WAS OFFERED A LIFT. TWO MORE MEN THEN GOT INSIDE (THE AUTO RICKSHAW) AND TOLD ME TO STAY. THEN THEY TOOK ME TO A ROOM AND LOCKED ME UP AND THRASHED ME. THEY FORCED ME TO CHANT SLOGANS… THEY TOOK MY MOBILE AWAY… THEY GOT A KNIFE AND CUT MY BEARD," A VISIBLY TRAUMATISED MR SAMAD, WHO WAS REDUCED TO TEARS, SAID." They even showed me a video of other Muslims being attacked," he said, adding his attackers had boasted to him that they had killed many Muslims before.

COVID-19 pandemic: Uttar Pradesh village crying for attention
Meerut: When everyone knows that only strong steps are needed now to slow the spread of corona virus and flatten the curve of COVID positive cases, we have a scenario in Uttar Pradesh, where villagers threatened by the Pandemic are finding themselves utterly neglected and the district authorities and health administration is neither invoking special provisions to create containment zones nor taking steps to identify and isolate COVID positive patients, provide them proper medical advice and ensure there is arrangement to admit in nearby hospitals those who are serious and require emergency treatment.

Newsroom24x7 has access to a complaint lodged with the Meerut District Chief Medical Officer by a resident of Bahchaula village of Rajpura block falling under the Incholi Police Station of Meerut district. This one complaint pertaining to a village not far from meerut points to a malaise and gives an indication about the ground situation that might be prevailing in remote areas.
According to Amit Kumar Sharma, the complainant, there have been many COVID-19 related deaths in his village in the past few days and many villagers have been detected as positive.
Sharma told Newsroom24x7 that about 10 COVID patients from his village are getting treated at different places. Also 8 to 10 persons have died of COVID in his village that has over 1700 registered voters. Sharma went on to inform that the administration has not sanitised his village even once.

Shift in balance: States to be watched are UP & MP

News is to be read between the lines, not along the lines. When Defence Expo was held in Lucknow in Feb 2020 and subsequent MOUs were signed by UP Government to start many defense related industries in UP, I could sense a shift in balance of industrial scenario in India in not so distant a future.
If you read the news buried under Covid related stories about success, dedication, cries, claims, fault findings, cover-ups or pure cacophony, you will see, a number of labour and agricultural reforms have been pushed in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. In post-Covid scenario, when India is expected to receive international shifting of production facilities, these two States (earlier falling under the BIMARU category- literally meaning sick but actually BIMARU was the short form for Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh – States that were considered the most backward) are preparing themselves to take the first advantage.
UP has just announced wide relaxation in labour laws and worker's rights for next three years for establishing new industries. UP, along with Madhya Pradesh, is investing in ramping up consumption in the rural hinterland by minimising the role of middlemen, boosting competitive pricing of agricultural produce and ushering in an era of value added agricultural produce based economy. Significantly, State monopoly of determining the price of agricultural produce through state owned APMCs is being systematically demolished. MP also has allowed direct selling of agricultural products from the doorstep of farmers.
There is also a perceptible change towards no-nonsense law and order implementation in central and northern states. Law enforcement machinary is getting back the due respect it deserves. Long lost fear of law is making a reappearance. This change in perception augurs well for building up business and industrial climate.
Recent labour migration will also help these two States to avail trained labour force easily and profitably. All the states who did not take care of the labourers during lockdown period, took them for granted and consequently had to allow them to return to their home states, will have to rue the lost opportunity. They have to bear the wrath of spurned labour. Their construction and other industries will have to look towards a difficult future in the post-Covid scenario, leave alone to take advantage of International migration of industrial manufacturing facilities. Somebody's loss is somebody else's gain.

Their spicy lechon is very unique and yummy! Who needs sauce when it's Rico's Lechon!! This is a place I will definitely be coming back to.. Two Oink Oinks UP!!
Of all the places in Cebu, this is by far the best Shabu-Shabu Resto. My tummy will never complain when I'm here. My tummy is happy!!
Not a fan of Japanese Cuisine but this resto is top notch! Ebi Tempure, Chicken Tepanyaki, Sizzing Beef are so yummy!! I'm in food heaven!!
Need I say more?! Best Native Chicken in Cebu!
This place has a very authentic asian fusion cuisine. One of their signature dish is the Lah Lah Lah Claypot, a Singaporean dish. One of the main ingredients of their dishes are usually noodles, probably because it absorbs the aromatic and distinctive taste of Thai, Malasian, & Singaporean flavors.
For me I don't prefer it since I'm cutting down on my carbs, but for some it might be a good thing.
You guys should try this place. It's a small and simple resto. If you want a private dinner this is the place to be.
This was my first time trying out this place and so far it was a very relaxing experience. As a frequent SPA person, this is a place I would really come back to. After the massage there will be a Ginger Tea and a choice of 2 Siomai or 1 Siopao waiting for you. It's not much but you get to have snacks after your massage. How cool is that?!
We went to this resto last week and boy did we regret it! To make a quick point, after ordering P2,100 worth of food for 6 people, we were still hungry and ate at Shakey's.
Serving size is so microscopic! Breast, thigh parts are just the size of a BBQ stick, which makes it so darn expensive. Never going back to that place ever again! BOOOOO!!
Food here is good. I ordered Mandarin Vegetables and it was served well and somewhat fresh. Hakaw and Shark's Fin was also good, added with tea and my dinner is complete. I will definitely eat here again and again!
Giving it a 1 star because their service wasn't good, it took them 45mins to send the 1st dish and it didn't even looked or tasted well enough for that 45mins wait. I ordered Seafood Dumpling, Spicy Squid, Spicy Chicken, Chicken Steak, Adobong Egg, and for drinks Jasmine Tea.
Seafood dumpling didn't even taste like seafood at all! I cannot understand the taste. Chicken Steak was very difficult too eat because the chicken meat was too hard, over cooked. Adobong Egg & Spicy Squid was okay, nothing special. I liked the Spicy Chicken and Jamine Tea. But those are not enough for me to go back and eat there again. Drinking tea is another story. Their Jasmine Tea passed my standards.
I'm not sure if it's the same in Manila but basically Ersao in Cebu.. 2 Thumbs Down!
