Popular Pioneers St. James, Fisher Join Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational Field
June 04, 2018 | By Paul Kelly, Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Indianapolis 500 veterans Lyn St. James and Sarah Fisher are returning to race in this year in the featured Indy Legends Charity Pro-Am on Saturday, June 16 during the Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Fisher won the A-Production class last year during her inaugural outing in the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association (SVRA) event, and St. James prepares for her fifth Pro-Am on the 14-turn, 2.439-mile road course at IMS.
St. James, a seven-time starter in the Indianapolis 500 and the event's rookie of the year in 1992, raced in 15 Indy car races in her career.
While many fans know her best for her Indianapolis 500 achievements, she is an accomplished road racer and has earned numerous laurels at the wheel of a variety of race cars. She is a two-time competitor in the 24 Hours of Le Mans (1989 and '91). She was even more successful in 62 IMSA GT events, amassing a record of six wins, 17 top-five and 37 top-10 finishes. Her 1985 GT victory at Watkins Glen remains the only time a woman has scored a win in that series driving solo.
St. James also raced in the 12 Hours of Sebring nine times, winning the GTO class in 1990, and was a two-time winner in the GTO Class at the 24 Hours of Daytona. She raced in 53 Trans Am races with seven top-five finishes.
Fisher is a veteran of nine Indy 500s, more than any other woman. She also was the first woman to compete full time in the IndyCar Series. Fisher earned standout results as the first woman to earn a pole position and the first woman to finish on the podium. Fans voted her the IndyCar Series' Most Popular Driver for three consecutive years, 2001-03.
Ohio native Fisher enjoyed early success, winning championships in karting and quarter-midgets. She climbed the ladder of midget and sprint cars, including World of Outlaws. After her driving career, she became the first woman to own a full-time Indy car team in 2008 and scored a victory with driver Ed Carpenter in 2011.
The Indy Legends Pro-Am is the Saturday feature event of the Brickyard Invitational. The Indianapolis 500 veterans will be in 1963 to 1972 vintage Corvettes, Camaros and Mustangs of SVRA "Group 6" A and B Production. The professionals will be paired with amateur drivers, splitting their stints at the wheel. Additional Indy 500 drivers will be announced as they enter in the coming weeks.
In addition to the Pro-Am, there will be a festival of other activities at the Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational, including the Sunday, June 17 feature race by the professional Trans Am series headed by 2017 champion Ernie Francis Jr. The weekend also presents the Hagerty Insurance "shine and show" car corral, vintage motorcycle racing, and 500-plus vintage racers ranging over 100 years of automotive history racing in SVRA Groups 1 through 12. An oval exhibition featuring a race car show of judged competition for the A.J. Watson and Sir Jack Brabham trophies led by track historian Donald Davidson also will take place. Also, the Pre-1920 Race Exhibition cars will be on track along with a paddock area full of in-period equipment displays. The National that finished seventh in the first Indianapolis 500 in 1911 will be driven at speed.

Divided government is seen by different groups as a benefit or as an undesirable product of the model of governance used in the U.S. political system.
By dividing government power among the three branches of government and between the states and the federal government, it has made quick, decisive, and comprehensive policy making difficult.

Van Wilder: Freshman Year - Unrated
Paramount // Unrated // July 14, 2009
Review by Brian Orndorf | posted July 27, 2009 | E-mail the Author
Please forgive my written weariness with this review, but I just watched "Van Wilder: Freshman Year," and I can't believe I've voluntarily sat through three of these pictures. Three! It's a cruel world out there if we can't get a "Rocketeer" sequel, yet are forced to suffer the indignity of three atrocious "Van Wilder" movies. The kicker? "Freshman Year" is a reboot of the franchise. The producers (the guys who had their sense of humor surgically removed years back) have zeroed in on DTV "American Pie" money, looking to rebuild the bruised "Van Wilder" brand name with a whole new cast, time frame and exhibition reality, ready to offer no-budget, brain-dead laughs to any sucker willing to offer 100 minutes of their precious life to such indefatigable garbage.
Fresh from high school, Van Wilder (Jonathan Bennett) is off to Coolidge College to fulfill his educational family legacy. Making himself comfortable on campus with pothead roommate Farley (Nestor Aaron Absera) and hyper Asian student Yu Dum Fuk (Jerry Shea), Wilder finds his comfort disrupted by Dean Reardon (Kurt Fuller), who loathes the Wilder name. Finding some comfort in the company of Kaitlin Hays (Kristin Cavallari), Wilder instead enrages her ROTC boyfriend Dirk (Steve Tally), who conspires with Dean Reardon to outwit Wilder and have him thrown out of school. Wilder, sensing trouble, turns on his gift for pranks and proceeds to make life hell for his enemies.
After the artistic implosion and box office failure of 2006's "The Rise of Taj," I assumed it was all over for the "Van Wilder" franchise. And it was, in a weird way, with "Freshman Year" halting the forward momentum and returning the concept to square one. Unable to convince Ryan Reynolds to return to a role he's always appeared embarrassed by, the producers have brought Bennett in to conjure up some stuttery mimicry. It's a terrible mistake. Reynolds could never be replaced and Bennett is trapped doing an abysmal impression rather than building his own take on the character. An even more egregious "Freshman Year" error? Hiring the director of "Kickin' it Old Skool" to oversee this tripe.
Billed as "A Harv Glazer Film" (what does that even mean?), I'm hard-pressed to understand why the filmmaker would want to assume credit for such a cruddy, bottom-feeding motion picture. While originality was always a pipe dream, "Freshman Year" is nothing more than a parade of dreary gross-out gags and naked breasts, held together by an obnoxious DTV ambiance that encourages the actors to bellow as broadly as possible. Glazer tries to sand down the rough edges with some "Malcolm in the Middle" visual stylistics, but the effort is confusing, lost within a screenplay fixated on two things: rehashing "Van Wilder" and rehashing "Van Wilder" poorly.
Bennett's photocopied arch performance is perhaps the least of the problems "Freshman Year" faces. The picture is brutal with the low-brow stuff, taking great pleasure in fecal, snot, and homophobic jokes, building to prank set pieces that often, and I can't believe I'm writing this, make no sense. "Freshman Year" doesn't exist in a world of logic, but one of gags executed, preferably by any means necessary. It's hard to argue with a film that prizes bare breasts above all else, but "Freshman Year" doesn't even have the sense to pin joy to nudity, instead making the whole endeavor feel like a dirty joke told by the creep in the room everyone's been instructed to avoid. Combine the soulless boobies (some of these girls look too wild-eyed for comfort, perhaps drugged?) to scenes of beer waterboarding, Dean Reardon receiving oral sex from Wilder's large-testicled dog Colossus, and the very idea of a character named Yo Dum Fuk, and here's a repellent picture. An ideal Redbox evening for self-loathing masochists or the stoned.
And then there's this unpleasant Cavallari lady to deal with, who has all the screen presence of bored Gap clerk. I suppose anyone can be an actress these days. Who really needs talent? Thanks, MTV.
The anamorphic transfer (1.85:1 aspect ratio) is suitable for the low-budget film, with heavy attention paid to bursting colors and appealing skintones. Black levels hold reasonable consistency, maintaining the heightened atmosphere of collegiate silliness. It's nothing remarkable to look at, but the DVD keeps the film crisp and detailed.
Don't worry fans, the 5.1 Dolby Digital sound mix retains the delightful squishes, squirts, and slurps of the bodily fluids. While a standard mix of uneventful surround activity and crunchy soundtrack selections, the track is best when providing sonic detail to the pranks, through some low-end vibrator rumbling or goopy liquid manipulation.
English, French, and Spanish subtitles are offered.
There's a feature length audio commentary from director Harvey Glazer and actors Nic Nac, Steve Tally, Jonathan Bennett, and Kristin Cavallari. Truthfully, I only gave this track 20 minutes to prove itself, fearing any more time spent around "Freshman Year" might lead to actual physical damage. Aside from the annoying fact the commentary is out of sync for the first five minutes, the group fancies themselves a team of comedians, cracking jokes about the making of the film. Much like the picture, the crew isn't funny. Instead, the commentary is a cacophony of screeching voices competing for air time. Even worse, the "talent" is drinking, further encouraging their stupidity. Don't waste your time.
"Creating the Legend: The Making of 'Van Wilder: Freshman Year'" (17:37) walks through the plot and BTS hijinks, interviewing the cast and crew on their experience making the movie. Again, everybody thinks they're hilarious, so don't expect much in the way of production insight.
"Going Balls Out: Colossus" (2:57) introduces the world to Champ, the canine actor who portrays the pooch with the huge set of balls. It's a jokey featurette, but it does highlight how much attention Champ received during his time on set.
"Coolidge College: Orientation Video" (3:23) asks the cast to slip into character and describe what the college experience means to them. DVD producers have too much free time on their hands. How about some extra effort keeping the DVD commentary in sync, guys?
"Decatur" (9:02) is a lampoon of the rancid reality show world created by the likes of "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills." Obviously, Cavallari is the star of this satire. And once again, everyone thinks they're a laugh riot. Imagine if real comedians were cast in this movie. Imagine...
"Teacher's Pets" (2:36) focuses on the horde of nubile extras who clamor for background screentime. While IQ levels remain in a flatline state, the featurette provides more lowbrow titillation for those in search of cheap thrills.
"Outtakes" (6:59) is a long ride of mix-em-ups, most centered on the improvisation skills of the actors. And here I thought all the bloopers were in the movie already.
"Van's Party Supplies" (3:58) interviews Shawn Gray, the property master on "Freshman Year," and the guy with the assignment of gathering dildos for one of Wilder's more surreal pranks. Gray's also in charge of the various bongs used during the production.
"Pranks 101" (3:47) talks to the cast about the practical jokes they've pulled on friends, family, and enemies.
A Trailer has not been included.
Concluding with a war game scenario that has Wilder "out partying" his enemies, "Freshman Year" closes on a disturbing note of promise. Seems there's a refueled tank of inspiration for the "Van Wilder" saga, now ready to follow the college years nobody asked to visit in the first place. To those who enjoy these crude monstrosities, enjoy the ride. It won't end soon. For me, it's three strikes and I'm out. Watching a dumb comedy shouldn't feel like a swan dive into a swimming pool filled with razor wire.

Gold's lackluster prices expected to continue in '15, analysts say
By KATHERINE CONNOR, The Daily Transcript
Banking & Finance Quarterly - 2015
With inflation rates falling, gold had a lackluster year in 2014 and is expected to maintain that at best in 2015, though some predict a decline in prices.
Gold started 2014 at $1,205.90 per ounce Jan. 1, according to Bloomberg, and closed out the year down 1.8 percent at $1,184.37 per ounce.
The high for the year was $1,382.92 per ounce reached on March 14, with a low of $1,140.54 on Nov. 5.
Dan Seiver, chief economist at Reilly Financial Advisors in La Mesa, said decreasing inflation rates, the collapse in oil prices and no significant world crises are to blame.
"Gold is supposed to be a hedge against inflation," Seiver said. "You could argue about how well it does that, but the world is not really facing any significant inflation, and that's a problem for gold. Europe may even be facing deflation, which is definitely not what makes you run to gold."
Additionally, the surprise collapse in oil prices didn't do gold any favors, either. Futures for WTI Crude started the year at $89.36 per barrel and were down to $53.27 per barrel by the end of December.
Seiver said this drop works to keep all prices down, materials such as gold included.
Lastly, the lack of empirical collapse served to keep gold prices stable but downward trending in 2014.
"People buy gold because of worldwide crises, and we don't really see one yet," Seiver said. "Maybe there will be one, but it's not so obvious yet. People go to gold with nations collapsing and such -- it's not like we live in a great world right now, but it's not falling apart."
As for how 2015 will progress -- gold started the year at $1181.98 and reached $1233 on Jan. 12 -- Seiver said he sees no reason why the slightly declining trend of 2014 won't continue.
"I don't see any reason why people are going to be superexcited about gold in 2015," he said. "There's nothing on the horizon. Inflation won't go that far negative except maybe in Europe, there are no strong developments to make people pile into gold, so I think it will stay as is, no reason to rally."
Some analysts have an even less optimistic outlook however, according to a Bloomberg report on gold in 2015.
"We expect gold prices to test new lows in 2015," analysts Suki Cooper and Kevin Norrish wrote in a report, predicting that prices will drop to less than $1,130 an ounce. "The lows of this year and next are likely to offer attractive entry-level prices for the longer-term investor."

Q: How to save in the DB multiple images along with text using Reactjs and Django Rest Framework? I am creating an e-commerce like app and I am stuck on implementing the feature to add the item (text + multiple images). I am sending a POST request from a Reactjs form, containing text and multiple images and I am able to save the text to the DB, and the images to the media folder, but I cannot save the images (path to media folder) in the DB (Psql).
This is the error message: "IntegrityError at /api/image/multiple_upload/
null value in column "item_id_id" of relation "api_image" violates not-null constraint"
My assumption is, as I am sending 2 different fetch POST requests on submit, one for the text and the other one for the images, and as each image has a FK to the item_id, the image's column cannot be filled as the item has not been yet created. Am I wrong? Is there any suggestion on how to implement that?
models.py
class Image(models.Model):
    image = models.ImageField(blank=True, null=True, upload_to='%Y/%m/%d')

A project devoted to establishing chemical-looping combustion with liquid fuels currently being conducted by Chalmers University of Technology with support from Saudi Aramco is presented. The ultimate goal of the project is to develop technology capable of utilizing and processing heavy residual oils with inherent CO2 capture. Up to this point, a continuously operating reactor with the nominal effect 300 W has been designed, constructed, and successfully operated with nickel-, manganese-, copper- and iron-based oxygen-carrier particles using non-sulfurous and sulfurous kerosene as fuel. The results so far are very promising, and 99% conversion of fuel carbon to CO2 has been demonstrated with all four kinds of oxygen carrier materials. Chemical-looping reforming for synthesis gas production was also demonstrated using kerosene and the Ni-based oxygen carrier. Here, complete hydrocarbon conversion to CO and H2 was achieved. Future work includes design and construction of a larger 10 kW reactor system for direct combustion of heavier fuels such as fuel oil and heavy vacuum residues, as well as a techno- economic study. This paper provides an overview of the project and presents the main results and conclusions so far.

Welsh mom and toddler son find message in a bottle on the beach
By Ben Hooper

July 26 (UPI) -- A visitor to a Welsh beach said her young son found a message in a bottle on the shore -- and the note inside bore a sentiment she found particularly meaningful.
Lauren Couchman-Graham said she and her 2 1/2-year-old son, Teddy, were walking along the beach in Prestatyn, Denbighshire, when the toddler spotted a bottle washed up on shore.
Couchman-Graham opened the bottle, revealing a handwritten message reading: "To Dad. We will continue to tell Olivia about you. Lots of love from Diddy and Jen."
The mother said the message was particularly meaningful for her.
"Teddy was so excited he'd found 'treasure' and I thought the message was really cute. Having lost my dad I often talk about him to my son, so I'm guessing this is what the sender here meant," Couchman-Graham told North Wales Live.
Couchman-Graham said she is hoping the authors of the message will contact her. She said the bottle was returned to the water after she snapped photos.
The Keep La Marque Beautiful Commission in Texas said earlier in July that Terry Pettijohn, a member participating in a clean-up event at Highland Bayou Park, found a message in a bottle among the 400 pounds of trash gathered by members and volunteers.
The bottle had been launched in 1995 by Brian Standefer and three friends. Standefer said he was shocked to learn the bottle had been found after so much time had passed.

Apollo Tyres introduces XT-100HD for commercial vehicles
Most advanced cross ply lug tyre; set to be the new benchmark in performance
Apollo Tyres, a clear leader in the commercial vehicle tyre space in India, today introduced the XT-100HD, the most advanced cross ply lug tyre that offers the best of both, load carrying capacity and mileage, while ensuring the most durable casing in the industry. This product has been introduced for the Indian market on popular demand from the customers and business partners, who were already using/ selling the company's best-in-class mileage tyres and the ones with the highest load carrying capacity in the cross-ply segment.
The replacement market in India is still going strong on cross ply tyres, with almost a 50:50 split between radial and cross ply, Apollo Tyres has introduced this technologically advanced product to carry moderate loads in regional haulage and mixed applications in the drive position. Being produced at company's facility in Vadodara, Gujarat, these tyres have been extensively tested on customers' vehicles in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh. The performance of XT-100HD, in these road tests, have been far superior to the key competition in this segment.
Commenting on launch of the new product, Satish Sharma, President, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa (APMEA), Apollo Tyres Ltd, said, "Apollo holds a leading market position in both drive and steer axle tyres, with many products leading in different segments. With the introduction of XT-100HD in truck-bus cross ply lug design category, we are confident of setting a new benchmark in performance in the load and mileage segment. To continue with our leadership in the commercial vehicle segment, it is important for us to have such differentiating products, which is compliant with the revised axle load norms as well in India."
The tyre comes with a heavy-duty casing with a new high strength nylon fabric that offers the best in class load carrying capacity. The durability of the casing has also been enhanced with the new heat ageing resistant compound and tyre cavity (HEART) technology, which ensures cooler running of tyres and withstands all applications, offering the best residual casing for retreadability.
The tread has been designed using the company's in-house Modular Matrix Tread (MMT) technology, with reinforced compounds and high tread rubber mass, that delivers the highest mileage in its segment.

One-on-one Conversation with Haute Hijab 'It Girl' Farah
Melanie Elturk
Melanie: Tell me about yourself, how old are you? Where are you from? Where do you live? What are you studying?
Farah: I'm 22, Arab American with Lebanese decent and I currently live in Dearborn, Michigan where I grew up. When I first started college at Wayne State University in Detroit, I majored in Psychology and applied to nursing school and now I'm in my second year of nursing school at the University of Detroit Mercy.
M: I went to Wayne State too ;) How do you like it?
F: At first when I started my program I hated it and I was considering switching majors but I'm glad I didn't because I've grown to love it and I wouldn't want to be doing anything other than Nursing! Alhamdillah!
M: What specifically do you like about it?
F: I love the fact that I'm capable of helping people and proactively working towards the greater good of mankind.
M: Hamdulilah, that's awesome - it's so important to love what you do! So, when did you put on hijab?
F: To be exact I put on hijab two months before I turned 9.
M: What was it like for you wearing hijab at such a young age?
F: Growing up my whole life my parents always taught us that religiously we are required to wear hijab to fulfill part of our religion. I never felt obligated to wear it because my parents didn't pressure me, but I felt satisfaction doing it because I was pleasing Allah. As a young child you feel a greater sense of spirituality because you're more innocent.
M: So if you weren't nine, say you were 15 or 21, would wearing the hijab have been the same experience? Easier? More difficult?
F: Personally I think that it only gets harder as you get older. I don't think it would have been the same experience and definitely more difficult, it's harder to adapt to hijab when you're older because you've already experienced a life without it and trying to re-adjust to a life with it is what makes it so hard!
M: Agreed. I wore hijab full-time as a ninth grader at age 13 and I don't know if I would've had the will power to put it on in say, college.
F: Even at age 15, a lot of the people around me weren't wearing hijab, if I didn't have one on already I probably wouldn't have wanted to put one on!
M: One thing that's been on my mind a lot lately is this idea or concept of taking ownership of your hijab. For me, I have to admit that hijab was expected of me and it was something I knew I had to do. I wore hijab, but at age 13 I don't know that I had the requisite understanding of what it really meant. It wasn't until college that I felt the light and blessing of hijab and there was a point when I was no longer wearing hijab because it was expected of me - I was wearing it for Allah (S) and for myself. I took ownership of my hijab. Did you have a similar experience considering the young age at which you started wearing it?
F: I don't think there will ever be a perfect time to wear a hijab, you can't keep waiting until you're ready, it's just something you decide to do and become accustomed to. Religion is a means to discipline your soul and devote yourself to Allah SWT. At times you may feel uncomfortable sticking out from the crowd because hijab is not the social norm but knowing that I'm doing my duty and devoting myself to my Creator is fulfilling in and of itself.
Farah in the Twilight Garden Wrap
M: Tell me what it's like growing up in Dearborn in regards to hijab. Is hijab the norm for most Dearborn Muslims?
F: Living in Dearborn makes it easier because everyone understands it, but it's not a social norm. The only reason you see a large population of hijabis in the city is because there's a big population of Muslims. You don't feel alone when you decide to wear a Hijab here because you know you're surrounded by so many girls wearing it too, as opposed to living in a city where you are the only one wearing it, which would be harder.
M: Do most of the people you grew up with wear hijab? The reason I ask is because when I was growing up just outside of Dearborn in metro Detroit, almost all my Muslim friends wore hijab - it was definitely the norm. If one of us didn't wear hijab - it was like, "when are you putting on hijab?" With today's youth, I don't know that that's the case anymore.
F: Growing up, yes most of my close friends did wear hijab but it wasn't weird if you didn't wear one. Overall more girls used to wear hijab during my pre-teen years but now I feel like girls don't care for it like they used to.
M: Why do you think that is?
F: I feel like people are becoming more absorbed in the culture and society we live in today. They are focusing on how appealing they look to others rather than thinking about the hereafter. As time progresses people are regressing religiously. They are molding their way of thinking and not considering religion and only considering society and culture.
M: Do you think we as hijabi's sometimes fall into that trap as well?
F: Yes, of course we do we're only human and we are all fallible. I feel like there's a double standard comparing a hijabi with a non-hijabi. On both ends people are being hurt and misjudged, people are so quick to judge a hijabi if she's wearing jeans that are too tight, but why is it okay for a Muslim girl who doesn't wear hijab to wear a mini skirt? On the other end people are so quick to oversee a good muslim girl who hasn't devoted herself to the hijab yet but fulfills all her other duties as a Muslim. Hijabis are looked at like a perfectly painted portrait of a religious woman and I find this really unfair. All Muslims need to work on themselves regardless of whether they're hijabis or not.
M: Well said! What do you think we as hijabis can do to help from falling into the trap of society's focus on the superficial - beauty, weight, clothing, etc. Like you said, we too are fallible and sometimes I'm frightened by the images I see of hijabis - particularly those who are putting themselves out there like bloggers, instagrammers, etc.
Farah: Social media is a double edged sword and we need to be careful of the things we choose to share with the public. As a hijabi, you need to define what modesty is and abide by those rules. At the same time modesty is defined differently from one person to the other. Some Muslims may look at my pictures and be frightened by the images I post because they don't agree that wearing jeans is modest so it really just all goes back to the way you define modesty and portray it yourself!
M: Do you think there should be one universal definition of what modesty entails for Muslim women?
F: I think it would be easier if it was set in stone and we had one universal definition of modesty. Unfortunately it's not like that and I'm still trying to define what modesty really is for my own self!
M: Ok, so how do you define modesty for yourself?
F: I define modesty by trying my best to cover the shape of my body, I have certain guidelines that I go by for example my tops need to be at least long enough to cover my behind, my hair needs to be fully covered, as well as covering my arms up to my wrists. I don't think leggings are permissible either, you need to be wearing pants and even then, your pants/jeans shouldn't be skin tight either. Although I have certain guidelines that I try to abide by I still struggle with my own definition of modesty - I know my jeans might be too tight sometimes or my shirts might not be long enough, but I have my mom to nag me about that hahaha!
Farah in the Candy Cane Wrap
M: :D You have 20K followers on Instagram! How did that come to be?
F: Everyone always asks me that question! It's just something that happened out of the blue! One day I posted a picture of my outfit of the day that I wore to a wedding and I randomly wrote out #hijabfashion in one of my tags, I ended up on their IG page and after that day a lot of girls started following me and asking me for hijab and modest outfit advice and my hijabi audience started growing from there!
M: That's awesome! Was it something you welcomed or something you were apprehensive about?
F: I thought it was pretty cool that other girls were THAT inspired by the way I dress. I've always been into fashion and I really loved that other girls were so into my taste in fashion!
M: Mashallah you've got great fashion sense!
F: Thank you Mel! It means so much coming from such an inspiration like yourself! I didn't think I would become so admired for sharing my fashion! It's nice to know that people view me as a strong modern day muhajaba that's dedicated to staying true to who I am and what I represent.
M: How would you describe your style?
F: I try to be as clean cut as possible with a little edge. I like wearing colors that compliment one another rather than always matching because I like to have a little fun with the way I dress. I love to pull off looks that are outside of my character for instance bohemian chic, but I usually stick to being more of a contemporary dresser!
M: Agreed on the complimenting colors rather than matching - although I'm excited to get my hands wet with the monochrome trend this Fall! What's your go-to outfit of choice?
F: I love the monochrome trend! It's definitely something that I'm into as well! My go-to outfits for Fall would be a basic long cardigan with a pair of colored trousers and my riding boots topped with my gorgeous Haute Hijab of course!
M: ;) Tell us a little about the Haute Hijab wraps - what do you love about them?
F: I love the variety of patterns and colors that HH wraps come in! They're very light and easy to wear especially during the summer when it gets too hot! My favorite thing about the wraps is how I can dress them up or dress them down! You can wear them to any occasion from weddings to school!
M: You work them so well! My favorite outfit you put together was with the Afternoon Tea wrap - what's your favorite?
F: That's actually my favorite wrap! I love the different colors incorporated into it! It's so classy and chic.
Farah in the Afternoon Tea Wrap
M: Ok - what's your all-time favorite, holy grail hijab?
F: I love comfort and convenience so my all-time favorite would be my black and white polka dot hijab because I can wear it with anything!
M: Nice choice! Walk me through your in-store shopping experience - do you find it difficult to find hijabi clothing?
F: I'm actually an online-shopper because I find it easier and more convenient! It used to be harder finding hijabi-friendly clothing when I was in high school! But now I feel like the trends are more catered to hijabis. For example, the 90's style is coming back with oversized tops to match with leggings, but as a hijabi I'd wear the oversized top with trousers or a pair of jeans and I love that!
M: Agreed! I remember when I was in high school/college it was near impossible to find a long skirt and if you did - it always had a slit up to the thigh. With online shopping - even if you can't find something in stores - you'll be able to find it somewhere online.
F: Yup! I agree, I love how maxi dresses and long skirts got so popular, they're seriously so perfect for hijabis.
M: For real. I just hope they don't fall off the planet cause they're so over-exposed. What's the best part about being Haute Hijab's 'It Girl?'
F: I love being a modest yet fashionable representation of my religion to other hijabis and nonhijabis! Being the Haute Hijab 'It Girl' has given me the opportunity to share my fashion sense, to show others that you can still look good and fashionable without exposing your body!
M: You're doing such an amazing job! Last question - if you could tell your 17 year-old self one thing, what would it be?
F: AHHHHH! I would have told myself A LOTTTTTTT of things! If only I could go back! I would tell myself to avoid making certain mistakes, but when you do fall into the trap of making a mistake don't let it discourage you from fulfilling the person you want to be. There's always room for improvement and bettering yourself. Your past mistakes shouldn't stop you from achieving your goals.
M: Love that. Thank you so much Farah and thanks for being such an awesome 'It Girl!'
F: Thank you for such a great opportunity!

Как сделать, так чтобы scroll был в таком положении, до конца, но, когда скроллишь, заголовок остается на месте, а скролиться только текст.

A: Во всех современных браузерах поддерживается (в Edge завезут чуть позже) position: sticky, суть которого примерно такова: когда до элемента не докрутили, он стоит себе в тексте как обычный элемент, а когда докручивают, то применяется положение, прописанное в top или bottom, и элемент закрепляется и игнорирует прокрутку. В вашем случае можно прописать sticky с top: 0, чтобы закрепить заголовок вверху div'а. Пример (стили элементов допилите самостоятельно под свою задачу):

.AutoDiv > h2 {
  margin: 0 -4px;
  padding: 16px 4px;

  position: -webkit-sticky; /* для Safari */
  position: sticky;

I have 2 young kids (1 about to start school is Sep, the other one is 9 months). I work full time and so does my hubby. Neither of our jobs can be done on part-time basis. The kids are being looked after a childminder and this is costing us a fortune (£245 per week for both of them and this is after a discount!!!).
I am really starting to miss my kids (having spent few months with them while on maternity leave) and as we cannot survive just on my hubby's salary I was thinking of becoming a childminder. My thinking behind is that I get to spend time with my own kids while earn some money looking after another child/children at the same time.
I was told I was a favourite auntie to my 7 nephews and nieces and all of my friends children who come to play in our house don't want to leave as they love being in our house so I think the kids would be happy to be looked after by me.
Get to earn money while being with your children in your own home.
Less to pay out on travelling, lunches, work suits etc.
Can be a V long day - sometimes 7am to 7pm or longer, although that is really up to you to choose.
You have to make an allowance for wear and tear on your house.
You have to deal with parents - some of which, can be over-protective, bad payers, or turn up late.
Your children might not like having to "share" Mummy and their toys and you may find their behaviour is more difficult than normal.
Other peoples children are brought up differently to yours and you may find some behaviours difficult to deal with.
Lack of adult interaction can lead to loneliness.
There is a certain amount of paperwork to complete for records and also tax returns.
You may have to make alterations to your home.
I'm currently taking unit 1 of level 3 Diploma in home base child care which you need to become a childminder as a minimum. The course costs about £90 but mine is being paid for by the local council as a local inititive.
I'm looking to start childminding once my little one is born (12weeks pregnant at the moment), you can have up to about 6 children under the age of 8/9ish. Only one can be under 12months with a max of 3 children under 5 (1 being the baby). On average childminders charge about £3 per child per hour but that does depend on the area you are in. Just bear in mind with childminding you become self employed and are therefore responsible for your own tax and NI. Also you need personal liability insurance by law. One thing we have been advised is to get paid from parents of children you childmind in advance as some have been known to wait a month before paying and then suddenly taking the child away leaving you with money owed and it being very difficult to get it.
It will cost you more on your household bills, eg utilities, toilet rolls, food etc but you can offset your expenses against your tax return. But your working hours are more than likely going to be longer than present and you probably won't earn as much money but it will save you your current childminding costs and allow you to look after your own children.
I'm thinking the same once mine is born as we can't afford for me not to be working but I currently work 25miles away from home so I would be quite a distance away from the child if I was needed urgently. Also with the costs of childcare it wouldn't be financially viable for me to pay someone else and still work full time myself. Sorry I've rambled a bit!!
don't forget you have to count your own children in to the numbers and it will also depend on the size of your house how many kids you are allowed.
to name but a few, that is why i am giving up this year after 11yrs.
One particular childminder went mental when I asked to see her whole house - obviously my daughter did not go there at all, but you do need to expect that some parents wont give a damn and others will be inquisitive and that may feel intrusive.
I'd add that I have a wonderful childminder, and one of my main criteria when I was looking was that I didn't want a minder with young children of her own.
The main reason being that if there's any issue with behaviour etc, there is going to be a natural bias towards one's own child, whether intentional or not, and if the minder's own child and my child are both upset/hurt, which one would she go to first? Not a criticism, just human nature.
Having spoken to a lot of people I know, I know I'm not the only one with this viewpoint.
Also, why should I knock my pan in so you can stay home with your kids!
Not having any time off from kids, when you're not looking after your own, you're looking after other peoples.
One childminder I knew told me that her kids couldn't have anyone round for tea after school as she was upto her limit with the amount of children she looked after (don't know whether this would be true or not :confused: ).
I also used to see a childminder with a minded child whilst her kids had swimming lessons due to hours worked by minded kids parents, so I'd say perhaps having work spill into what you would like to be family time (obviously depends on times you mind etc).
You can earn money without putting your own kids in childcare and can be there for them when they are ill, school closes at short notice cos of burst pipe etc.
Thanks everyone for your replies. You have pointed out few things which I have not thought of.
you need lots of equipment(Toys,highchairs,car seats plus many more things) - I was hoping to use all of the items which I kept from when my kids were younger. Is that allowed?
I understand that but my current and my previous childminders both have young kids and I actually liked that because I knew that my kids had someone to play with which I think is important for their social skills development and it gives them a certain consistency. And they get on really really well.
I think that this was meant to be a tongue in cheek comment rather than a knock or slight upon your suggestion in anyway!
My wife is a childminder, we have two kids 7 & 4. I am a postie home by 1 most days, there is NO biase what so ever with our kids and if anything it goes the other way. This may be a fear of yours and perhaps some people are like that but I can guarantee you 100% we are nothing like that.

My wife charge £4 per hour, today she had 3 children for 9 hours each. If £108 for one day is crap pay then I'm on drugs.
It is a wonderful job.
All oour parents sign contracts, they ALL pay in advance by DD and all know if they don't pa then the kids don't play.
My wife will earn approx £10,000 Gross this year and this will mean she nets approx £5,500. (Therefore no tax).
She starts at 8, finsihes at 5 and doesn't work Friday, Saturday or sunday.
I do all of her accounts and so long as you keep decent records of expenditure it's fairly straight forward. Today we had two under 1's a boy and girl (with speical permission from Ofsted), we also had a 18 month old, plus our two boys from 4pm.
It's very rewarding, extremly upsetting when they leave to go to school and so long as your kids can handle sharing it's cool. Your house isn't your own but if she was out at work who would pick the kids up and make my dinner ?
However starting a business can be difficult, people like to have references from previous parents and for this we are obviously lucky. I say we, I am a full time postman, it takes time to get it going but 2 years in I have to say it's the best move ever.

I have been childminding for 12 years. Most of the ups and downs have been covered. My advise would be don't give up your current job until you have some children to care for. I think that those running the training for prospective childminders don't emphasize enough that despite the fact that there would appear to be a demand for childminding places in your area it can still take a while for your details to be passed to parents in need by the Childcare Information people.
Trust your gut instincts - if a child comes on a visit and runs mayhem through your home he/she will no doubt get worse as they settle in. Just because you have a vacancy it doesn't mean that you have to accept anyone. Try and get children/parents through recommendation.
Get yourself known at toddler groups. Not only can they be a good source of customer but they are also some welcome adult company in what can be a very demanding job.
If you can put 20% of your income into a high interest account. This will mean you will have sufficient to cover any tax/NI when you fill in your tax return.
Join the NCMA, they supply you with booklets that will help you keep on top of all your paperwork.
The NCMA's home insurance is very good and competitively priced.
Many car insurers don't charge any extra for business cover. Over the last few years we have had cover with Direct Line, Norwich Union and Esure and none have charged extra (Schedule clearly states for my business use). Other childminders I know have recommended the NCMA's car insurance.
If you currently have a good childminder then don't be afraid to ask her advise (if you feel you can). I helped one of my parents throught the registration process. Whilst I knew I was losing the income from her I was lucky to have parents waiting for me to have places become available.
Lastly I decide when and how much holiday I am taking at the beginning of each year (7 weeks). There is no negotiation, parents have at least 3 months notice of my holiday, which I view as ample time for them to make other arrangements. Most of my holiday is in school holidays so I can enjoy time with my son and husband.
Good Luck, it can be the most rewarding of careers.
The above is excellent advice.
"Also, why should I knock my pan in so you can stay home with your kids! - I really don't understand this remark".
What I would say though is I've had a few different childminders say to me "I started this job as it was a way of earning whilst being at home with my kids, I had no wish to put mine in childcare"
and I always think, don't tell me this when you are providing childcare, just tell me that you adore children and can't think of anything you'd enjoy more.
The childminders that have said this to me, I've known for years, before they started minding, and perhaps they've just said this to me and not to prospective customers.
It depends on demand a lot. I was a registered Childminder for 2 years before I went back to college to train to be a teacher. The problem I found was lack of work so the pay was totally crap. Some weeks were great when I was full, but often familes' circumstances change and despite having a contract, if they don't want to pay their notice, there isn't much you can do without the huge risk of losing out even more if you take it to small claims court. Other times were very lean, I had only a couple of children before and after school only and I was not earning very much at all.
When I did it, I was assured that there was a shortage of childminders, but there was also a great shortage of children which cancelled any benefits out!!
Ofsted inspect your home and look at the tiniest little things in the name of health and safety - mostly good, but they do get over zealous sometimes.
EEK!! Yes it was meant to be tongue in cheek! I didn't reply last night as I was at work!
What the OP said about an evening job-why not explore this further? I work evenings and nights so I'm at home in the day and dh is home at night when I go to work.
I'd never belittle the work a childminder does-mine is worth her weight in gold, and she does a job which I could NEVER contemplate doing!

Lightfoot Targets Young People With Social Distancing Message
Despite continuous pleas, city officials said large gatherings are still happening in Chicago
Published May 9, 2020 • Updated on May 9, 2020 at 10:39 pm
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot sought the help of a prominent community activist Saturday in an effort to spread her social distancing message — particularly young people.
Despite continuous pleas from Lightfoot and the Chicago Police Department, large gatherings are still happening, especially on weekends and in nice weather, city officials said.
The mayor addressed the troubling trend in a Facebook live discussion with Ja'Mal Green, the founder of the non-profit organization "My Block My Hood My City."
According to Chicago police, as of Saturday, officers have had to ask people to break up large groups more than 7,000 times. In all, 38 people have received citations and 19 have been arrested.

Mayor Lightfoot said the number of cases is "still to high" to let their guard down.
"...We are looking at the data, but because people aren't staying at home as much as they were, but we are seeing an increase in the amount of cases," he said.
However, the mayor said she does see a world this summer where "music can happen in neighborhoods and people can be out." However, she stated that Chicago will only get to that point if residents obey the stay-at-home order.

Q: More Than One Static Address Binding for DHCP? I have my DHCP server setup to be connected to three subnets (ie: 2001:abab:1234:1:: or 2001:abab:1234:2::) using three unique IP addresses, except in DHCP server binding properties I can only see one of my IPs to bind the DHCP server to.
How can I get Windows to serve all three subnets with DHCP service?

Tuesday was a 20 minute AMRAP. Today is a 10 Minute AMRAP. That means average intensity needs to be higher. You should be able to establish a smooth pace with these three movements so that you can keep moving taking 10-15 seconds break between movements as your rest. For the KettleBell swings focus on really popping your hips and use as little of your arms as possible. Stay steady on the Box Jumps trying to rebound off of the ground. We want strict CrossFit Games Standards on the box jumps meaning you have to show control and stand up completely on the box. If you are going to rest take it on the top of the box. Use a lower height box if you cannot not rebound off of the ground. Toes to bar should utilize your lat muscles (Scapula Pulls) as much as your stomach. Work on engaging your lat muscles. Try to work on moving efficiently. I would like to see every one complete a minimum of 5 rounds.

Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston Tease New Series "The Morning Show" During Apple Event
Finally, people! Two of our favorite ladies, Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston, are joining forces with a new series with Apple, called The Morning Show.
The new series, of which more details were unveiled during Apple's latest event, will reportedly highlight and discuss the politics of the broadcast morning news.
Jennifer explains, "We take an honest look at the complex relationships between women and men in the workplace, and we engage in the conversation people are a little too afraid to have unless they're behind closed doors."
To completely do the show justice, they have to have the male perspective, and that's where Steve Carrell comes in. "You can't have an honest look at complex relationships between men and women with just women," Jennifer says. Steve agrees completely; he swears to bring "the manliness" to the show.
He even revealed that his character is "bold and dynamic, with a lot of gravitas. He's a great listener and relatable and extremely handsome." With Reese, Jennifer, and Steve this is clearly an all-star cast.
Reese took to her Instagram following the event to share a series of photos alongside her castmates, saying, "So excited to announce my new Apple show at the #appleevent! It's called The Morning Show and it reveals what happens in the fast-paced world of broadcast morning news. I star alongside #JenniferAniston, #SteveCarell & many other talented cast members. Making this project with Apple has been such a dream! Can't wait for you all to see it! Coming this Fall!"

More details on the show are expected to be released soon— and until then, we'll be counting down the days until fall!

Miss Austen and I have our regular routes for walking. The specific route and length of a walk is generally impacted by how late I'm running. One of Miss A's favorites, due to the high concentration of squirrels, takes us past Chimborazo Elementary School. A few years ago, landscaping was put in that transformed the grounds into an extremely pretty and inviting space. In fact, I was quite envious. Oh, to have a green thumb. Mine is currently chartreuse. I loved walking by. Lately, though, it looks a little, well, overgrown.
I have no idea who did the initial planting or who kept it up. I've never seen any type of professional landscaping service either, so my best guess is that it was done on a volunteer basis. I am in NO WAY writing this to call anyone out. The grounds are still really lovely, but…. I can see a difference. The plants need a little love.
What does this have to do with anything? Well, I was walking by the other day and noticed it, the difference, and I thought to myself that was how I'd been feeling lately, a little overgrown. When big changes happen in your life your brain shifts energy and space where it needs it the most. You go into sort of a survival mode and the places that are integral to survival come first.
The weeds, that's when they see an opening. You're supposed to do something on a Monday and you just don't get to it. I'll do it tomorrow, you think. I can carve out time. It's important; it needs to get done too. But then tomorrow comes and you still don't get to it. Then you make a new to-do list and it's even longer than the one you made Monday. The weeds start popping up. Friday comes and there are still those three things staring at you "un-crossed off" on your list. I'll get them done over the weekend.
By Monday, the weeds have become intertwined with the real plants and you're so mad at yourself you could spit. Then you just sit and watch the weeds overtake the garden. They spread like a disease. Then, the time and effort it will take to clean them up feels like climbing Everest. What would have taken an hour will now take a day. That overwhelming feeling begins to break over you like a wave. I'll never get it all done now. Why can't I juggle all this?!
Because, Kelly, sometimes, you just have to go to sleep. Sometimes, you need to put yourself first. Sometimes, you need to ask why someone else isn't pulling their weight, and frankly, why can't they do it? Sometimes, you need to worry less about disappointing someone else and more about how much better you'll feel if you just clean up the backyard. This is obviously about more than the backyard, but you already knew that.
Vacation for me came at the perfect time; at least it seemed like the perfect time. A break helps you step away from the everyday just long enough to see what's staring you right in the face. I have a bad habit of thinking that even though everything is completely changing, somehow everything will stay exactly the same. It doesn't.
When I came back from vacation it seemed like a bit of a fresh start. Things in a lot of areas felt better than they had in weeks. I let go of the last eleven years I think. Life won't be the same, hopefully it will be better. Better in the sense that you grow and you change. You accept your new surroundings and your role in them. Your brain calms down just long enough for you to look around and finally notice the weeds that have so ruthlessly taken up residence around you. Yuck! Luckily, I look adorable in a pair of Wellies and shears in my hand.
Homeostasis is close, but not completely here yet.…..
I can't wait for how I'll feel in another two months.

Rangel: Social, economic problems fuel illegal immigration
Enrique Rangel
AUSTIN - Illegal immigration is back in the spotlight in Texas and, for a change, it is not because of what a state official or a candidate for public office said or what a political party proposed.
No, the issue is getting wide national and international attention because of the unprecedented surge of unaccompanied minors from Central America down in South Texas.
Because the expected arrival of more than 90,000 Central Americans this year has become a humanitarian crisis, next Thursday the U.S. House Homeland Security Committee will hold a public hearing in McAllen.
According to most news reports, the reason for the surge is there are widespread rumors in the countries the detainees come from - mainly Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador - those who cross into U.S. territory will be allowed to stay.
However, these kinds of rumors are not new in Central America and Mexico, the region where most unauthorized immigrants in the United States come from.
Though over the years I have periodically traveled to Latin America and even lived in Chile, a decade ago I spent more than four weeks south of the border, mainly in Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador and the southern Mexican state of Chiapas, which borders with Guatemala.
The rumor at the time was President George W. Bush's immigration proposal would give unauthorized immigrants a chance to apply for legal residency.
I heard the same rumor six months earlier in Agua Prieta, Mexico, across from Douglas, Ariz. However, it was in Tecun Uman, Guatemala - the last stop before crossing into Mexico through the Suchiate River - where I heard the full details and began to see the impact a widespread erroneous belief can have on a nation or a region.
At Hotel Girasol ("sunflower" in English) in downtown Agua Prieta, dozens of migrants from the interior of Mexico and Central America waited for nighttime to cross into the treacherous Arizona desert, the most transited area at the time for illegal immigrants.
As it happened in Tecun Uman and in Ciudad Hidalgo, Mexico - the city across the Suchiate River - the migrants I talked to told me that if they crossed into the U.S. without being arrested by immigration authorities, they would eventually qualify for a green card.
Although the number of unauthorized immigrants the U.S. Border Patrol was arresting at the time was one of the highest in modern history, what is different now is most of the detainees are children and some women, too.
They are fleeing their homeland because gang violence is terrorizing many people in Central America, particularly in Honduras, now considered the most dangerous country in the world outside a war zone.
Gang violence is nothing new either.
Though I haven't visited Central America lately, even back then I heard horror stories about the Mara Salvatrucha gang and other criminal organizations.
Families with teenage children, particularly those living in impoverished neighborhoods, live in constant fear that their sons could be recruited against their will or killed and their daughters could be raped and murdered.
I interviewed a Guatemalan mother who, after her daughter was raped and killed, she and her family continued to live in fear her younger son could be kidnapped or murdered by the same gang.
The high crime rate, the lack of opportunities in their countries and the promise of a better life in the U.S. is what makes the migrants take so many risks.
In Southern Mexico, for example, hundreds get on top of railway cars to begin their journey to the north and a good number of them fall on the tracks and lose a limb or get killed. And others who manage to make into the U.S. die while trying to cross the Arizona desert or the rugged South Texas terrain.
But, if history is any guide, as long as the social and economic problems in those countries persist, the illegal migration to the United States will continue.
