Posted on June 10, 2018 June 10, 2018 by highstakespokergames_b0gw15	in highstakes poker tournaments, Poker News, World Series of Poker 2018 Results No Comments
San Diego poker pro Benjamin Moon won the $1500 NHL Big Blind Ante. The big blind ante format is the new approach to poker tournaments. In the betting, the big blind puts up the ante for all players. In theory it saves time as someone with a low chip stack would put in some rounds all of their chips when it's their turn at big blind. No waiting for that ace pair with this format. That is the criticism of the format. Those with weak cards would have to use their chips in any case and not hold on to to a small stack in hopes of something better.
Nonetheless, Moon won over field of 1300 players. He takes home $315,000. He also gets his first bracelet. Though new at the WSOP, the big blind ante format is de riguer in Los Angeles and San Diego where Moon plays regularly. He says it does in fact play faster.

Canada wins four medals on last day of ISU World Cup Long Track stage in Norway
Blondin leads way with silver in the 5000m & prequalifies for Olympics, men's team sprint sets World Record
Stavanger, Norway, November 19, 2017 – The Canadian Long Track Speed Skating team won four medals, Sunday, on the last day of the second stage of the ISU World Cup season held in Stavanger, Norway, as Ivanie Blondin won silver in the women's 5000m race and therefore unofficially prequalified for the Olympic Games in that distance, Ted-Jan Bloemen came up with silver in the first men's 10,000m of the fall, the men's team sprint won gold and set a world record, and the women's team sprint won bronze its first time out.
In addition, Isabelle Weidemann came within less than one second of earning her first-ever individual World Cup medal by finishing fourth in the women's 5000m.
Winner of a bronze medal in the 5000m distance at the 2017 ISU World Single Distance Championships, Ivanie Blondin (Ottawa, ON) was in a position to prequalify directly for the Olympics in this event by winning another medal at one of the four World Cups to be held this fall. That is what she did on Sunday, as she came up with silver with a time of 6:57.34.
She was the only skater to come within less than a second from the winner, Germany's Claudia Pechstein, who won gold in 6:56.60. Blondin's spot at the PyeongChang Games will become official as long as Canada qualifies at least two spots in this distance.
"I haven't been that much focused on prequalifying – in fact, I had completely forgot about it until I saw (national team coach) Bart (Schouten) after the race and he reminded me. In the moment, I had a surge of emotion overcome me and I started to cry. It's such a great feeling!" said Blondin.
"Before that, I was taking it day by day, training by training and race by race, and that helped me accomplish what I needed to do today to prequalify," added Blondin. "Somehow it's all coming together, I felt really good out there on the ice. In fact, it's been the case all week, the ice felt fast for me."
Czech skater Martina Sáblíková won bronze in the women's 5000m with a time of 6:59.95, 0,87 seconds ahead of Isabelle Weidemann (Ottawa, ON), who skated the race in 7:00.82. Fourth spot is the best placing Weidemann as ever earned in a 5000m race at the senior international level. She was fifth in that distance at the 2017 World Single Distance Championships.
"This is my best finish ever so it's exciting, but at the same time it's bittersweet, because it's close to the podium and yet, not quite good enough. It means things are going in the right direction, but there's still a lot to work on," said Weidemann, who skated in the same pairing as Pechstein. "I was pretty consistent in today's race, I didn't want to go out too hard because this ice is rather unforgiving, I wanted to be able to build towards the last couple of laps."
"It's great for Isabelle and I, it's so motivating to see that we're both skating so well and progressing in the right direction in this Olympic season," added Ivanie Blondin.
Bloemen in another fierce battle with Kramer
Ted-Jan Bloemen (Calgary, ON) earned a silver medal in the first 10,000m event held this World Cup season. His time of 12:52.64 allowed him to finish second behind Dutch skater Sven Kramer (12:50.97), who won gold, and ahead of Erik-Jan Kooiman of the Netherlands (12:57.13), who collected bronze.
This is Ted-Jan Bloemen's second individual medal this World Cup season, as he also won silver in the men's 5000m event held last week at the first stage in Heerenveen, the Netherlands. Both times, Bloemen finished second to Kramer after the two skaters battled it out in the last pairing.
"It was a fun battle, it was a lot like last week's race," pointed out Bloemen. "Although I came up a little bit short in the last lap, I'm happy with the pace and energy I showed overall.
"Still, I have to work on some things, I need to get a bit faster," added Bloemen. "It's a bit frustrating when you set the pace the whole race and then, at the end, there's a challenge you can't meet. At least, I sensed that (Kramer) had to give it everything, and that the 1.6-second gap there was today, was really a 1.6-second gap, which is not very big."
Bloemen's medal bring him a step closer to the 2018 Olympic Games. If he finishes among the top 5 in the Special Olympic Qualification Classification (SOQC), an overall ranking that takes into account the four World Cup stages to be held this fall, he would be prequalified for the men's 10,000m (as per some conditions, including that Canada qualifies at least two spots in this event).
Jordan Belchos (Markham, ON) placed 10th in the 10,000m A group with a time of 13:10.30, while Graeme Fish (Moose Jaw, SK) skated to a 14th-place result in group B (13:25.83) at his first-ever World Cup.
Men's team sprint: another gold and a World Record
For the second straight stage this World Cup season, Canada won gold and set a new world record time in the men's team sprint, as Gilmore Junio (Calgary, AB), Alex Boisvert-Lacroix (Sherbrooke, QC), and Vincent De Haître (Cumberland, ON) skated to victory in 1:19.52, ahead of Norway (1:19.84) and the United States (1:20.58).
"My throat's sore, but other than that, the world record feels good," said De Haître, who was sick earlier this week, which affected his results in the 1000m (8th) and the 1500m (19th). "I had a couple of bad races, so my confidence wasn't great, but I knew that as a team, we would do well together and that we would pull this off. I'm glad my teammates believed in me, altough I'm sure no matter who skates for Canada in the team sprint, they would do the job."
"I was really tense before the race," said Boisvert-Lacroix, who was skating in the team sprint event for the first time. "I was afraid I'd be a burden to the team, and I wanted to do well for the guys who were on the bench after skating last weekend (Laurent Dubreuil and Alexandre St-Jean). But it went better, and it was easier that I thought it would be. We'll see if I skate on the team again in two weeks in Calgary, but I'm confident that no matter who is on the team, we will set another world record at the Olympic Oval because the ice is so fast."
Women's team sprint medals its first time out
As Canada was taking part in its first women's team sprint event in this World Cup season, Marsha Hudey (White City, SK), Kali Christ (Regina, SK) and Kaylin Irvine (Calgary, AB) skated to a time of 1:28.85 on its way to bronze, to finish less than a second away from gold-medal winner South Korea (1:28.09) and silver-medalist Norway (1:28.48), and ahead of the United States (1:32.69) by over three seconds.
"We worked really well together out there, considering that this was a new combination of skaters, that we hadn't skated together in a race before today," said Marsha Hudey.
"We had a plan before the race, then we adjusted it twice during the warmup. We executed it really well in the race," pointed Kaylin Irvine, who won her first career medal on the World Cup circuit.
"It was an awesome feeling to be out there on the podium, although I felt tired because I had to skate three laps out there," said Kali Christ.
The next World Cup stage will take place in Calgary, AB, Dec. 1-3. Tickets are available at: https://oval.ucalgary.ca/worldcup.

Australian millennials are turning their backs on the big screen in the lounge room, for the first time watching more video on their devices than broadcasts on television.
Australian broadcasters are the masters of burying the lede when it comes to talking about viewing figures, while using myriad different metrics to make it difficult to compare apples with apples.
The most telling statistic in the latest industry report is buried on page 13, where you dive into figures which make it clear that rusted-on seniors are all that's stopping Australia's viewing figures plunging into free fall.
The amount of broadcast television Australians watch continues to fall across the board, but 18-to-24 year-old viewers have passed a major milestone which is likely to spook broadcasters.
At the end of 2017, these young Australian viewers became the first demographic to officially watch more video on their devices each month than broadcasts on a television screen, according to the Q4 2017 Australian Video Viewing Report.
They spent 31 hours and 5 minutes watching video on their computer, smartphone or tablet in the last quarter of 2017. Meanwhile they only spent 26 hours and 26 minutes sitting in front of a television screen watching live or recorded broadcasts. This figure doesn't include non-broadcast content, such as watching Netflix or gaming.
These viewers haven't simply switched to watching traditional television on a different screen, with industry figures indicating that Australians watch almost as much on Netflix as we do on the five major free-to-air Catch Up services combined. You can be sure the balance tips in Netflix's favour amongst these younger viewers.
Meanwhile 25-to-34 year-olds appear to be destined to cross the same threshold in the next few years, as their broadcast viewing hours continue to fall.
When you dive into the figures it looks quite likely that Australian teenagers have already crossed this threshold of favouring personal devices, even though the report only keeps track of their viewing on televisions.
Teenagers are leading the charge as the amount of television Australians watch continues to fall. Teen television watching habits plunging almost 25 per cent in 12 months, and youngsters are clearly not regaining a taste for broadcast television once they come of age.
With the amount of viewing options increasing, we are viewing less content on our televisions.
Australia's latest viewing figures come as the number of screens we own continues to rise, reaching an average of 6.6 per home. This is despite the ongoing decline in the size of the average Australian household, down to 2.56 people per home at the end of 2017.
Tablet and smartphone ownership rates are starting to plateau at around 50 and 85 per cent respectively as they reach market saturation. Meanwhile the average number of televisions per Australian household has slumped to 1.8, meaning you can no longer assume that your typical home has a second television in the rumpus room or bedroom. There's more likely to be a tablet on the coffee table.
Television ownership figures have been sliding since they peaked at 2.4 back in 2010. At the time this figure was expected to keep growing past three televisions per home, but then Apple's first iPad hit Australians shores and television ownership figures have been in decline ever since.
Having grown up with smartphones and tablets, millennials are a demographic time bomb ticking in Australia's television viewing figures – with little indication that they'll flock back to traditional television once they hit middle age.

Whether you want to buy an investment or a holiday property overseas, it's a wise investment decision when done rightly. Do your due dilligence and you will find that this diversification of your assets will pay handsomely in due course.
It's no different when buying a house or an apartment in Croatia, where you can ideally combine both purposes - have a holiday and an investment property in a country that's widely known as a great tourism and travel destination.
This is because Croatia is not only one of the most beautiful and a scenic countries in Europe, but it is also very safe and a perfect place to call home. During the first decade of this century many foreigners, from England, Germany, France, Austria and other places have decided to call Croatia home. Some of them have even set up their own business here, not the least converted their home property into village tourism private holiday house.
Here are some reasons why you should buy a house in Croatia and why it was placed in the world's top 12 retirement havens by Forbes two years ago.
When one sets about buying a house overseas which they will call home, there are many factors that have to be put into consideration. One of the first factors is habitability of the location. In that regard, buying a house in Croatia is a wise decision. The country is not only one of the most beautiful and scenic countries in Europe, but it's also very safe and a perfect place to call home.
Although during the independence war of the 90s there was little government control over Croatia's real estate development, the country is now asserting control over its property development and getting it highly controlled. During the second half of 2012 and the first half of 2013 the government has undertaken the process of legalizing homes, houses and apartments built without permit, to get its property books in order, for the anticipated EU membership in the second half of 2013.
This increasingly controlled development is a beautiful aspect of Croatia's real estate, as it assures enough personal space, minimal pollution and convenient proximity to services. Being a sparsely populated country, rarely will you find property in a crowded area and so one is assured of peace and quiet in their home. This is unlike many countries where even in the suburban areas, one cannot avoid the ever increasing encroachment of shanties and trailer parks. This ruins the aesthetic of the place and also breeds high crime rates. Croatian cities are among the safest places one can live in the world and the thrill of owning a house in Croatia is just irresistible.
Croatia earned the top 12 spot title in the best retirement haven for 2011 from the Forbes magazine, describing it: "Sitting across the Adriatic Sea from Italy, Croatia offers great beauty, a mild Mediterranean climate, ancient culture, tax breaks for retirees and low cost of living."
For safety and security, The Institute for Economics & Peace ranked Croatia even higher than the U.S. This is why more and more people are coming here to spend their last days in solitude and peace in this holiday paradise.
Not only is the buying rate of luxury property in Croatia increasing, most people are willing to relocate permanently in their chase for a safe haven for their families. It has also continuously emerged among the top tourist destinations in Europe because of the beauty and the serenity that comes with it. You simply cannot go wrong, buy a house in Croatia and it will be your best investment for the future.


Once you start getting into a groove with your blog, building a strong audience, creating high quality content on a consistent basis, and working with brands on sponsored campaigns, you may start to consider transitioning your blog to a full-time job. First of all, congratulations if you're at this point! It's an exciting (and scary) time that many of us spend years striving for.
When is the right time to go full-time?
1. You've been creating high quality content on a consistent basis (4+ times per week).
4. You work with brands on sponsored campaigns monthly and are compensated appropriately.
5. You're earning enough each month to live off of, or you're at least very close. Many of us go full-time when we're close to that monthly revenue goal because once we have more time to devote, we can actually increase our revenue to where it needs to be.
What steps should I take to transition to a full-time blogger?
As you begin the transition to full-time blogger, the most important thing to understand is that your blog is now a business. Of course it's also a passion, but it is your way of earning a living and it's important to always remember that.
Now that your blog is a business, you'll need to spend time on all of its different departments, not just on content creation. There's Business Development, Sales, Marketing, Social Media, Design, Tech, Billing, and the list goes on. It's important to recognize all areas of your business and spend the appropriate amount of time on each one.
Of course, you're not expected to be able to do all of this yourself. Figure out which areas you need help with and our worth sourcing out. For example, I have someone who helps me with all things tech related. I pay her because it is so worth the wasted hours I would otherwise spend trying to figure it out myself.
Just as you would if you were employed by someone else, you need to get organized. Create folders on and offline for each of your different departments and don't stray from this organization. When there's no one holding you accountable, it can be easy to skip a step or not save that contract to the right folder. But it's so important to take these steps now to make things easier for yourself in the future. I also think respecting your business in this way creates a mentality more likely to lead to success.
When you were blogging on the side, the goal was to keep it running. You made sure to get your posts up and to not fall behind. Now that you're a full-time blogger, your new goal is to optimize your business, rather than just maintain it. In fact, understanding your blog's revenue model (how your blog makes money), and how to optimize that process should take up a large majority of your time.
Because you are now relying on your blog to generate a living, it's essential to set realistic goals for yourself and to plan as far ahead as possible. This includes scheduling out content, but also thinking from a revenue perspective. How much revenue do you plan to make in October? November? Do you plan on adding email marketing in the next two months? Creating a new series? Reaching 50K Instagram followers?
It's important to not only set these goals, but to create a plan to achieve them as well. Create smaller, weekly goals to keep yourself on track. Even daily goals can help. The more you can plan ahead, the more likely you'll reach those goals and succeed in your business.
considering the transition to full-time, so let me know in your comments below!
Ask Amanda: Should I Tell Him I Like Him?
Wahh I don't have a twitter! Would love to enter – love myself any kind of weekly list!!
whoops I totally posted this on the wrong post! lol. Meant to write this on the Back to School entry. Nevertheless, love this post about exactly how much social influence you need to have and what numbers look like before people go full time. It seems like all of my favorite bloggers are full timers now!
Check out my post Blogging 101: How to Increase Your Pageviews! Let me know if that helps!
Thanks for sharing! This is such a great post for those of us who are unsure when to take the leap!
Thanks for these tips! It's hard to imagine getting to the point of getting that many followers, but I don't post often enough! 4 posts a week is some serious work — I've gotta get on top of that.
I would love to be a full time blogger one day! This was awesome advice! Thank you!
I loved this post! I'm not planning on going into blogging full time, but these tips help even for people just running a blog for classes in school–especially number 2. Organization is key!

Series of community hubs to be built in Glasgow
June 06, 2019 – Glasgow's council is considering plans for the £20m first phase of programme to create a series of community hubs across the city.
The hubs will be single locations from which multiple services provided by Glasgow City Council and its partners will be accessed and delivered. The approach is intended to improve effectiveness in the delivery of the services.
The first phase of development will focus on the wards of Baillieston; Calton; Canal; Drumchapel/Anniesland; Greater Pollok and Pollokshields.
In particular, Baillieston and Drumchapel are seen by Glasgow City Council as examples as to how the community hubs will host a range of uses while supporting regeneration.
In Baillieston, the council has a long-standing commitment to deliver new sports facilities in James Lindsay Park, which will be supported by an additional £6.5m. The council said that this presents the opportunity to co-locate other services relevant to the needs of the local community.
In Drumchapel, the decision on where best to locate the hub will be informed by how local commercial, community and housing needs can be aligned with the aspirations and needs of the community and partner organisation based there.
The council has also taken ownership of the Dalmarnock Legacy Hub, and will soon begin engaging with the local community on both the best uses for the building.
There will also be ongoing work to identify locations for future community hubs in other areas in Glasgow as part of the council's property and land strategy.
Councillor Greg Hepburn, chair of Glasgow City Council's neighbourhoods, housing and public realm city policy committee, said: "These proposals would deliver a new model of community service provision that best meets the needs and convenience of Glaswegians, bringing local services together into one accessible space. This £20m investment will be the first stage in transforming how people access these services in Glasgow, and the new community hubs will play a key role in regenerating the six areas identified – as well as providing a sustainable future for the Dalmarnock Legacy Hub. Future hubs in other parts of the city will play a similar role in bringing these social and economic benefits all across Glasgow."

Resolutions dominate business at Md./Del. Baptist convention
Posted By Baptist Press On November 13, 1997 @ 12:00 am In | Comments Disabled
SOLOMON'S ISLAND, Md. (BP)–Apart from singing, sermons and reports, resolutions dominated business sessions of 407 messengers at the 162nd meeting of the Baptist Convention of Maryland/Delaware, Nov. 10-11 in Solomon's Island, Md.
Messengers re-elected Gary Glanville, pastor of Northwest Baptist Church, Reisterstown, Md., as convention president and passed a $5,368,876 budget for 1998.
The resolutions committee presented to the convention 20 statements, mostly addressing moral issues. All received approval, though messengers debated the wording of one that encouraged support of pastors.
Bylaw changes concerning how the convention handles resolutions also drew debate.
Two attempts to amend the resolution for pastors failed. Robert Wilson, pastor of Viers Mill Baptist Church in the Montgomery (Md.) Baptist Association, objected to the wording "pastors are God's called men," noting there are women pastors in the BCM/D. He offered an amendment to include women.
Rick Humphreys, pastor of Faith Southern Baptist Church, Elkton, Md., expressed his disgust "political correctness," saying, "I want to be biblically correct. The resolution says it all."
The amendment failed.
Another amendment, proposed by Phil Logan, pastor of Emmanuel Baptist Church, Huntingtown, Md., sought to broaden the resolution by addressing all ministerial staff, instead of just pastors.
Ken Cademartori, pastor of Mason-Dixon Baptist Church, New Freedom, Pa., objected to the amendment, stating, "We are changing the intent. Keep it as it is."
Saying he did not feel slighted by a change to include all staff, Larry Eubanks, pastor of First Baptist Church, Frederick, Md., said, "I need church members to be in support of all staff."
Other messengers said they felt pastors were significantly different from other church staff and deserved special support. "There is a difference between pastors and support staff," Humphries said. H. Eiland, a messenger from Greenridge Baptist Church, Clarksburg, Md., said, "Our pastors are special people. They are not just part of the staff."
John Draper, a messenger from Middle River Baptist Church, Baltimore, and director of missions for the Baltimore Baptist Association, asked if the convention was confusing a theological position that only men can be pastors with stating support for pastors.
Others said women and other staff should be included in the resolution. Jim Evans, minister of education and youth at Emmanuel Baptist Church, Huntingtown, Md., said, "to just basically say that we're not going to encourage women or ministerial staff is, I think, inappropriate. … We all serve according to the call of God."
The amendment failed and the resolution passed as it came from the committee.
Earlier in the session, messengers voted to change the way resolutions are handled, with the changes to take effect next year. Many convention-goers were frustrated at last year's annual meeting because bylaw changes from the previous year had barred them from addressing issues. Consequently, several resolutions were referred to the convention's general mission board for consideration. This year, messengers voted to remove the bylaw preventing the convention from accepting resolutions from the floor.
The new bylaw states that "only resolutions presented to the resolutions committee at least 45 days in advance of the Annual Meeting will be considered by the committee before the first session." Messengers may present resolutions from the floor during the first session, so long as they give "justifiable" reasons for not meeting the 45-day rule. Resolutions will then be referred to the resolutions committee, which must give full consensus before presenting them to the body.
The new bylaw makes clear that resolutions express the "overwhelming" majority of messengers by requiring "an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the messengers present and voting."
Calling the time frames restrictive, Cademartori attempted to amend the bylaw change. He sought to shrink the time frame from 45 days to 10 and to remove the two-thirds majority requirement for passage of a resolution. "I don't want us to lose our freedom of expression," he said. "Resolutions help us fulfill our prophetic role."
Larry Steen, pastor of Westminster Baptist Church, Central (Md.) Baptist Association, agreed the convention should retain freedom of expression but said that the 45-day rule is necessary for the committee to compose and rewrite resolutions.
Charles Lawson, a messenger from Linthicum Baptist Church, Arundel (Md.) Baptist Association and chair of this year's resolutions committee, said he supported Cademartori's amendment. The committee received no input, he said, attributing the lack to the 45-day rule.
President Glanville called for a ballot vote after affirmative and negative raised hands appeared evenly divided. Later in the day, it was announced that the amendment had failed, 77 to 152.
Otherwise, messengers spoke against homosexual behavior, same-sex marriages, domestic partner benefits, pornography, partial-birth abortion, gambling, condom distribution in schools, violence, teaching evolution in schools and zoning laws that hinder churches.
The convention weighed in on the Disney boycott debate by declaring support for the actions of the Southern Baptist Convention taken last June during its annual meeting in Dallas.
Noting the passing of Mother Teresa, the Roman Catholic nun who ministered in Calcutta, India, the convention pledged to show "love and compassion toward those who are poor and needy."
The convention also gave support to the True Love Waits sexual abstinence campaign and to the display of the Ten Commandments in public places, including courthouses and government offices.
Messengers expressed dismay that the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and called on the SBC Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission to work on a solution.
Noting that in many countries Christians face persecution, the convention offered prayer support for those Christians.
The convention also approved resolutions of appreciation for Dana Collett, former pastor of Covenant Baptist Church, Columbia, Md., who died this year; for schoolteachers; and for convention staff and elected officers.
In other business, all convention officers nominated received no opposition and recording secretaries cast unanimous ballots for the convention to elect them. Glanville received a traditional second term as president. John Gaugher, pastor of First Baptist Church, Perryville, Md., and Dan Spiker, pastor of First Baptist Church, Brunswick, Md., were elected as first and second vice presidents, respectively.
The $5,368,876 budget represents a 5.5 percent increase over 1997. Anticipated Cooperative Program receipts from the churches of $3.25 million will continue to be divided 51 percent for BCM/D work and 49 percent for national and international Southern Baptist causes after the preferred annuity item has been deducted.
Messengers approved changes in committee structures altering aspects of the general mission board reorganization adopted two years ago. The communications/public relations task group has now been raised to full committee status. The new visions allocations task group no longer exists. Its functions now reside with the administrative committee.
The committee on convention arrangements also was deleted. Its task of selecting the site of the convention, the preacher for the annual sermon and the music director will now be handled by the committee on order of business.
Baptist Family and Children's Services trustees were removed as members of the general mission board, a change resulting from ongoing discussions concerning the relationship between the general mission board and the agency.
Next year's meeting will be Nov. 9-10 at the Sheraton Hotel, Ocean City, Md.

Israel and Germany have restarted bilateral consultations after long-standing disagreements about settlement building.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday that Germany shared Israel's goal of preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear arms, but said they differed on how that should be achieved.
"Nuclear armament must be prevented, Germany will participate very strongly in it," she said. "What we do not always agree on is the way to achieve this goal."
Merkel was speaking alongside Netanyahu at a press conference in Israel, just a week after he accused European leaders of "coddling Iran's dictators." The meeting represented a renewal of regular government consultations between the two nations after they were paused in 2017 when Merkel expressed her disapproval of Israeli settlement building in the West Bank.
She said the Iranian threat to Israel had increased, as demonstrated by the presence of Iranian troops near the Golan Heights.
"In this respect, we see the pressure and environment under which you live here, and this is very different from the situation in which we may be living in the European Union. I therefore expressly confirm that Israel must, of course, defend itself if it is attacked," she said.
Netanyahu paid tribute to the friendship between the two countries and repeated his opposition to the nuclear agreement with Iran, saying it handed billions of dollars into the hands of the government in Tehran, which promotes Islamist terrorism.
There had been no shortage of controversy ahead of the visit, with Netanyahu widely expected to press Merkel and other EU leaders to follow US President Donald Trump's lead and pull out of the Iran nuclear deal.
Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly last week, Netanyahu claimed the EU had adopted a policy of "appeasement" toward Tehran, a word evoking how European leaders had failed to stand up to Adolf Hitler in the 1930s. He also mentioned the EU's "absolutely crazy" demands of Israel, including the call to stop displacing Palestinians for settlement building.
Ahead of her arrival on Wednesday, children in the West Bank Bedouin village of Khan al-Ahmar put up posters imploring the chancellor to stop the demolition of their homes. Merkel had previously voiced opposition to plans to raze the village. Israel maintains the hamlet was built illegally and dangerously close to a highway.
She said she would seek contact with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to discuss the situation in Gaza, and that she would try and get Palestine to join peace negotiations with Israel.
Merkel reaffirmed Germany's responsibility for a secure future for Israel. She admitted that anti-Semitism continued to exist in Germany, and in some cases had worsened.
Merkel visited the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial on Thursday, where she signed its guest book. In her entry, she mentioned the "Kristallnacht" (Night of Broken Glass) pogrom, and said that it and the horrors of the Holocaust "gave rise to Germany's everlasting responsibility for this crime and to fight anti-Semitism, xenophobia, hatred and violence."
Merkel was accompanied on the trip by Germany's new commissioner for fighting anti-Semitism, which many fear is on the rise.
In remarks made at sideline events during her visit, the German chancellor drew attention to the lack of women in top-level business and academic positions.
At a meeting with young business representatives, Merkel welcomed the all-male participants while adding that she "wouldn't be disappointed if next time there were more women among the many hopeful future leaders."
"That's not criticism of those sitting here now," she added with a smile, "just encouragement for those yet to come."
Later, Merkel received an honorary doctorate from the Haifa University in recognition of her political leadership and for her service as a role model to women around the world. During a moderated question and answer session after the ceremony, university President Ron Robin stated that "65 percent of the students [at Haifa] are women."
"And what percent of the professors are women?" Merkel asked.
"We have some catching up to do," Robin answered with visible discomfort.
Merkel received a doctorate in physics before turning full time to politics.


The HSE is standing over a decision to pay for agency nurses saying the are needed for essential care.
Documents released by Sean Fleming TD this mont show that in the first quarter of 2012, over €1 million was paid to agency nurses at Portlaoise, Tullamore and Mullingar hospitals. These nurses worked enough hours to keep 75 full time nurses in employment.
"There are a lot of young qualified urses in Ireland who should be employed, this would also achieve better value for money for the taxpayer," said the Fianna Fáil TD.
In reply the HSE told the Leinster Express that staff shortages due to the moratorium and retirementse, mean they had to hire agency nurses for essential services running.
"The HSE is managing its resources in the context of the reduced staff as a result of the recent retirement scheme and the public sector moratorium which is in place across the public service," the spokesperson said.
They said that maintaining essential services such as maternity and paediatrics made the decision to engage agencies necessary, and the agency hours worked are based on demand.
"It should be noted the figures supplied in a parliamentary response indicates the WTE (whole time equivalent) over a three month period and is not reflective of a daily, weekly or monthly basis. This daily WTE equivalent fluctuates based on nursing need to meet critical care/service situations. The situation is monitored on a continuous basis," the statement ends.
In Midlands Regional Hospital Portlaoise, €319,889 was paid from January to March for 10,900 hours of work by agency nurses, the equivalent of 22 whole time staff. The Mullingar and Tullamore hours combined with this came to €1,048,397, which Dep Fleming said may cost over €4 million by the end of 2012.

Reviews and articles from Esther Rosenfield
Esther on Film
Patron Request: 'A New Leaf'
May 11, 2019 October 16, 2019 by Esther Rosenfield, posted in Patron Requests, Reviews
There's such a sharp observational quality to the films of Elaine May, as heightened as their comedy can be. You get the sense that May has such a deep understanding of people and relationships, and rather than simply recreating what she sees, she builds these hilarious concepts out of them. Her films can be ridiculous, but something about them always rings true. It reminds me a lot of the more recent work of Rachel Bloom, specifically the show Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. The more I think about it, the more that show feels like heiress apparent to May's comedies. Both construct elaborate comedic ideas on top of simple observable truths about human dynamics. And Bloom would be right at home alongside May as a scrappy Jewish comedienne.
If May hones in on anything in A New Leaf, though, it's the inherent hilarity of a bourgeois lifestyle. The montage early on when a newly poor Henry Graham (Walter Matthau) says sorrowful goodbyes to all the absurd markers of his old wealth is hysterical. One bit has Graham sadly miming with a riding crop and then breaking down in tears. Just the concept of rich people seems hilarious to May, with all their silly dignities and meaningless obsessions. And she has a clear-eyed view of what being wealthy means in America. "You're going to be poor in the only real sense of the word," Graham's butler tells him early on, "in that you will not be rich." There is no world outside of wealth in A New Leaf; Graham's first option when he's lost all his money is suicide. It plays in the honest absurdism of the film's comedy — the absurdity of a world where money is all there is to life, and yet the fundamental truth of that outlook in a capitalist society. The nonchalance with which one of Graham's high society contacts introduces a couple named the Hitlers ("You're not by any chance related to the Boston Hitlers?") reflects the ironic detachment from decency that comes along with such highfalutin behavior. I've always thought that to make a good comedy about the wealthy you need to understand what wealth really means, and May very much does.
To keep speaking about May, she's terrific as the nebbishy botanist heiress Henrietta. She casts herself in an unforgiving role; she must ride the fine line of being not so likable that Graham comes off as a complete jerk but not so irritating that Graham seems a hero for wanting to be rid of her. Her charm has to shine through, so that when Graham finds himself having fallen for her, the viewer has as well. It's such a difficult challenge for a performer, and May just nails it. To do that on top of directing the film is nothing short of miraculous.
Matthau's great too, as the perpetually annoyed bachelor who wants nothing more than to be alone with his money until the loss of that money forces him to seek companionship. He manages to keep you laughing at him even as his character descends further into a sinister mania. The late bit where he daydreams about all the ways Henrietta could be killed on a trip to the Adirondacks is on its face horrific, yet Matthau's barely suppressed glee at the prospect sells the hilarity. He reminded me a bit of Daniel Day-Lewis in Phantom Thread, though the comedic stylings of that film are a far cry from A New Leaf and Reynolds Woodcock much more a fusspot than a grump. The way both characters describe their lifelong disinterest in women could be read as a suggestion of queerness, too. I know Matthau's disinterest in any and all people is more than a little relatable to some friends of mine.
I read that A New Leaf was ripped from May's hands during the editing phase and that she was so unhappy she tried to have her name taken off the final release. I can't speak, of course, to the relative quality of her (apparently three hour) cut of the film, but I can say that the existing version of A New Leaf is totally delightful. It feels like an Elaine May film through and through, whatever butchery happened to it behind the scenes. I'd be thrilled if May's cut ever saw the light of day, but with the final cut being as good as it is, it's hard to feel desperate for such a release.

Special shoutout to Adam Levine, who forgot the words to "Oops!... I Did It Again."
While Mike Tyson was butchering the lyrics to "Hotline Bling," Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton were doing what could have been Drake's first number one solo single the right way. And by the right way, I mean the way that you and I sing and dance to it alone in our rooms – separately, of course. No, I'm not in your closet.
Watch it here at the time mark, and look at Gwen's face when Pharrell suggests that she sing with Blake. There is literally no way that Blake could have said no to her.
Okay, so Blake didn't do a whole lot other than say the word "bling" a few times, but I'm gonna go ahead and say that Gwen nailed it. She is actually all of us in the mirror holding our hairbrushes while body-rolling the song away. Bless up, queen.
Another A+ moment: "You know Drake, right?" Jimmy asked Blake. I die.
Did Drake Really Jack D.R.A.M.'s "Cha Cha" Style for "Hotline Bling"?

The Undeniable Power of Subliminal Audio Messages
Subliminal audio as a self-development tool has been around for the best part of a hundred years, yet there are still those of us who are unfamiliar with the concept. In simple terms, subliminal audio refers to sounds played at a level we are unable to hear, but that our subconscious minds are able to perceive.
Study after study has shown conclusively that subliminal audio can produce measurable and lasting effects, from breaking bad habits to improving performance. One of the reasons this technology is so successful is that it is able to sneak new thought patterns direct into your impressionable subconscious mind, "under the radar" of your more logical conscious brain.
Why Does Subliminal Audio Work?
Your mind has a conscious element and a subconscious element. The conscious part, as the name implies, works when you are conscious and awake. The subconscious part, however, is always switched on, always soaking up sensations and information no matter what you are doing.
One way to understand it is to think of your mind as an iceberg. Your conscious mind is the bit of the iceberg you can see, say 10% of the total mass, while the rest is made up of your subconscious mind. That gives you a good idea about just how powerful your subconscious mind really is. It also explains why so many self-development enthusiasts look for ways to access its power.
The subconscious picks up information you are not always aware of and stores it in your mind. If it picks up enough information with enough frequency, that information will gradually become a part of who you are, giving you the potential to change the way you think and, by extension, the way you behave. As Dr. Joseph Murphy writes in his book The Power of Your Subconscious Mind, "change your thoughts, and you change your destiny [1]."
Making Changes for Good
This ability for information to sneak into your head makes subliminal audio useful in two powerful ways:
1.	To break bad habits, such as smoking or overeating
2.	To implant new, positive beliefs, such as self-confidence or motivation
Examples of people who have used subliminal audio messaging to achieve amazing results are everywhere. Tiger Woods reportedly used subliminal messages to help him become the world's greatest golfer [2]. Director Steven Spielberg found the confidence to follow his dreams and become one of the giants of contemporary cinema. Renowned life coach Tony Robbins has used subliminal audio technology to help celebrities and influential people all over the world achieve levels of success they could otherwise only have dreamed of.
Proof That Subliminal Audio Works
There are plenty of well-documented studies that prove the effectiveness of subliminal audio technology.
According to Professor Benjamin B. Wolman, author of more than 40 books on psychology, conscious thinking can be influenced by stimuli outside of awareness. He adds, with reference to Silverman (1967), that Freud's study of consciousness "assumes that a subliminal input raises the activation level of existing unconscious motives" [3].
In other words, subliminal messages can be used to spark yourself into action, depending on the kind of action you intend to pursue, such as getting more motivated, organized, confident, and so on.
Dr. Norman Dixon, a psychologist at University College London, has done extensive research on subliminal learning. In his scholarly work Preconscious Processing he cites 748 references to studies on the effects of subliminal communication, with over 80% showing positive results [4].
Dr. Eldon Taylor, director of Progressive Awareness Research and a Fellow in the American Psychotherapy Association, firmly believes that subliminal information when presented in an appropriate manner is processed, retained, and acted upon [5].
Further studies have focused on the potential of using subliminal audio messages to target a specific outcome, including:
Raising Academic Standards
A class of 60 law students was split in two, with one group exposed to subliminal stimuli and the other not. Students who received the stimuli scored noticeably higher than their peers at the end of the course and continued to outperform them for some 12 weeks later [6].
Two groups of overweight women took part in a weight loss course with one group being given subliminal audio messages and the other group not. The group that was exposed to the subliminal messages lost more weight, and subsequent follow-up showed the difference in weight between the two groups had continued to increase [7].
Psychologist Dr. Lloyd H. Silverman of New York University studied over 40 groups of smokers. Half of each group were exposed to subliminal audio, and half were not. Within just one month, 66% of those in the subliminal group were still cigarette free compared to only 13% of the control group. This led Dr. Silverman to postulate that subliminal audio messaging makes it 4 times more likely you will be able to quit smoking [8].
Limitless Applications for Change
It should be obvious by now that subliminal audio messages are more than a fad, more than the latest craze dreamed up by self-help gurus to further their own careers. Time and time again scientific research has proven the effectiveness of subliminal audio to help people overcome real life issues, from eliminating fears to boosting their mental powers, from increasing confidence to decreasing stress.
These messages are intentionally designed to be too subtle for your conscious mind to pick up. Your subconscious, on the other hand, never misses a trick. It latches on to them, takes them at face value, and makes them part of your belief system. It does not try to filter out what you feed it. Feed it with enough positive stimuli, therefore, and it has no choice but to incorporate those stimuli into your very being. As Oprah Winfrey puts it, "what we dwell on is who we become."
And that's what makes subliminal audio messages such a powerful force for change.

Shenandoah to Travel the Country on 2020 Every Road Tour
Cillea Houghton
Shenandoah will hit the road this year on their 2020 Every Road Tour.
The beloved country group have booked a 32-date tour that takes them across the U.S. from March through October. They'll perform in theaters in Houston, Fort Worth, Louisville, Milwaukee and more, also taking the stage at several festivals and fairs, including Hometown Rising in Louisville on Sept. 12.
Shenandoah's tour officially began on Friday (March 6) with a performance at the Country Music Hall of Fame.
The Every Road Tour also coincides with Shenandoah's co-headlining Country Throwback Tour alongside fellow '90s country group Restless Heart. The two acts will perform eight shows together beginning in June — find them at Billy Bob's in Fort Worth, the Wild West Festival in Kansas and more.
"It's not here we go again, it's, 'We can't wait!'" Shenandoah frontman Marty Raybon shares in a press release. "Knowing everything we have in store for 2020 and all the work we've put in over the last four years, it's an overwhelming but incredible feeling to see everything coming to fruition."
This marks the first run of the tour, with more dates to be announced in the coming weeks. Shenandoah were originally scheduled to perform at Stagecoach Festival in Indio, Calif. on April 26, but the festival has been postponed to Oct. 23-25 due to coronavirus concerns. No word on whether or not the band will perform during the new dates.
Shenandoah rose to fame in 1989, scoring a string of No. 1 hits beginning with "The Church on Cumberland Road," "Sunday in the South," Two Dozen Roses" and several others in the following years. The ban d is currently working on a new album that is expected to be released in the fall.
Here's a Complete List of Can't-Miss 2020 Country Tours:
