Death By Pollution
Ask the drivers of Delhi. As they drive about, squinting through the haze, they have realized full well what air pollution could mean. As they taxied wheezing men, women and children in October of 2018, they realized they were in the midst of the first ever "medical emergency" due to air pollution.
The Air Quality Index of Delhi set new records as they reached a maximum 999. In blunt unscientific terms, the situation was akin to smoking more than two packets of cigarette every day in a city that was a literal 'gas chamber'.
The taxiwallahs smirk at the tourists' reaction to Taj Mahal, the universal symbol of love. The glistening white monument has been diagnosed with "Marble Cancer", a condition culminating from the excessive pollutant particles in the air. A sickly yellow tinge now coats the mausoleum, despite strenuous efforts being made to restore the signature monument of the city. Overly populated cities, the subsequent vehicles that mushroom and the booming need for food bombarding farmers to burn 23 million tonnes of farm residue to clear the fields has clearly left its scar behind.Not to mention the 100 million housewives that cook by chullahs thereby signing up for death by damaged lungs.
The Tungabhadra river now runs dry. The temple priests who drew pail after pail of this holy water, now stand distressed. The rites had to be conducted by the small pools that are left by the sides, they complain, not realizing almost every other river in India suffers a similar fate. They don't know that since Vaigai river in the deep south ran dry, people have been boring deeper and deeper into the earth until one point when the sea water flooded in, leaving strips of salts across their bare skins as the bathed.
The infamous Koovam River that ferried haughty British officers across Madras is known for its distinct stink. On the banks where many a mighty temple stood, people, don't trod anymore. Ganga is the classic tragedy that every Indian could recite. Her dolphins are gone with her tortured spirit that fled, leaving a dead carcass behind.
A daunting 80% of all the water in India has polluted with the 29000 million litres of sewage spewed daily into the land that has its treatment capacity at 6000 million litres per day.
The farmers of Ramanathapuram are long gone. There is no land left to sow. Where groundnuts, chillies and rice grew in clusters, bare land looks up at the sky. Landfills reach high against the tainted horizon. 40% of the municipal waste in India go uncollected. Plastic strewn across the land greedily captures the few drops of rain that falls in here. The laments that drift from Faridkot and Bathinda of Punjab strike even harder. Apparently, the children born there showed increased defects that prompted an investigation into the matter. The demon lay hidden in the fly-ash ponds of the thermal industries in the district.
By law, about 33% of any landmass is to be forested. The plethora of benefits the forests bestow upon humankind cannot be fit in phrases. Not many years have passed since the satellite pictures of India's dwindling forests caused quite a stir. Despite that, India is still losing about 1.5 million hectares of forests every year. Not more than a pale 10% of the land is under forest cover. 132 critically endangered species of plants and animals have found a spot in the Red Data list of 2012 released at the Rio+20 Earth Summit.
The environmental challenges that threaten India are grave and require a spontaneous address. Despite statistical records pointing an appreciable spur in environmental restoration activities between 1995 and 2005, the truth rings loud- we are nowhere near the utopian society we dream of. It's about time each one of us stepped in to contribute.

Final Four teams a slam dunk for NBA-quality talent
Associated Press— March 29, 2012
Lurking in virtually every corner of the Superdome this weekend will be lottery picks, some other NBA first-rounders and assorted AP All-Americans.
Everywhere, that is, except the Louisville locker room.
This year's Final Four features three teams — Kentucky, Kansas and Ohio State — all with their fair share of the most gifted players in the country, and a fourth with a coach who has squeezed the most out of the next tier of talent.
Does that make Louisville's Rick Pitino the best coach, or say something about John Calipari, Bill Self and Thad Matta? Well, those three might tell you something about how tough it is dealing with a bench full of stars.
"A lot of coaches would agree that, at times, coaching teams with a ton of talent is probably more difficult because you're constantly trying to get the maximum out of them," said Matta, who has a star in AP All-American first-teamer Jared Sullinger, widely viewed as a top-15 NBA draft pick. "It's so much easier to get to the top than stay at the top. A lot of times when you have a team that's loaded, you fight a lot more adversity on the outside than when you're scraping to get to the top."
Which brings us to the Kentucky Wildcats, who play Louisville on Saturday in the first semifinal.
By choice, Calipari has developed a program so overflowing with top-level talent that he's spending more time looking to replace players after a season or two than developing them over four.
Freshman Anthony Davis, another AP All-American, will likely be the top player in the draft should he leave after this season. Classmate Michael Kidd-Gilchrist won't be far behind. Freshman Marquis Teague and sophomores Terrence Jones and Doron Lamb will also have a chance at the first round if they leave.
So, Calipari must be the most persuasive (some might have another adjective to describe this after those run-ins with the NCAA) recruiter in history, right?
"We don't do anything outlandish," he said. "We're not promising minutes or shots. They've just really got to trust that you have their best interest at heart. It's a players-first program and they learn that, as you sacrifice, we all gain, as individuals and as a team."
Getting his players to buy into that, and to come to a team where they aren't guaranteed to be the only star, might be Calipari's biggest accomplishment as a coach. But once they get there, he insists he's doing more than simply rolling the ball out on the floor.
Kentucky leads the nation in field goal defense and blocked shots and has a nearly 6-5 assist-to-turnover ratio. Stoked by this combination of less-glamorous numbers, Calipari claims he has the most efficient team in the country.
"What I'm going to try to do is get guys to play as well as they can play," he said. "Let's go out and play great. If it's not good enough, let's make sure we have more fun than anyone else and we'll take the results from there."
While Calipari tries to get the most out of a lot of talent, Pitino has been playing a different game this season. He is the only Final Four coach without an AP first-teamer. In fact, there were no Louisville players on the second or third teams either, or even on the honorable mention list.
According to most lists, not a single one of Pitino's players would get drafted by the NBA if they left this year. Meanwhile, a raft of injuries and roster adjustments has turned every practice this season into an adventure. Pitino coaxed his sixth Final Four trip out of a team that reminds him in many ways of his first — an undersized, underappreciated group of players at Providence in 1987, headlined by Billy Donovan.
The Cardinals are led by point guard Peyton Siva and center Gorgui Dieng. Yet they went down the stretch in a tight game against Florida on Saturday with Siva gone from the game with five fouls and with a relatively unheralded freshman, Chane Behanan, taking over.
"We may not have as much talent in certain areas as other teams. But there's young talent and we're going to develop," Pitino said. "The great thing about March Madness and college basketball is that, generally speaking, in the pros, 90 percent of the time, the best team is going to win a five- or seven-game series. In college, it's a one-game stint, maybe somebody shoots great, anything can happen."
Kansas has this year's only unanimous all-AP selection in junior Thomas Robinson, who figures to be an NBA lottery pick if he leaves.
He could spend much of the night Saturday matched up against Sullinger, who sat out with back spasms when these teams met in December and Kansas won 78-67.
"He's one of those kids that, even when he doesn't play his best, he still gets numbers," Self said of Robinson. "Some kids, that happens, and they get eight points, four rebounds. He doesn't play well and he ends up with 15 and 11. It's such a bonus when you can pencil that in for the most part."
Players like that must make coaching easy. Calipari recognizes there are plenty of them — on all four teams at this year's Final Four. Coaches coach, he said. Players win.
"Everyone's talented," Calipari said. "Yes, we have good players. So does everyone else. You think they just have a system and that's why they're winning? They do it because they've got basketball players."

You may be thinking that the world is spinning so much faster these days. Yes, there is not enough time to do everything you have to do in one day anymore. Well, technically that will depend on how well you can manage your time. Many people have mastered the art of time management with discipline and a simple notepad at their disposal. You heard it right, a notepad. Yes, by simply jotting down the tasks you need to do on a given day and assigning a specific time of the day to accomplish it, you can effectively manage the time for that particular day with relative ease. Here are some tips on how you can create a schedule to follow on a daily basis.
Finalize your tasks for the day. Every day, whenever you wake up and finish your breakfast, get a notepad and start writing all the things you need to do for the week. This will include all the tasks related to work, family, and self that have not yet been completed. Make sure to leave nothing out. This will be your to-do list, which will not necessarily mean that you will need to do every single thing on the list in one day. This just means that these are the tasks you know that you should complete soon. Once everything is written down on a notepad, try to write the deadline or due date beside each task. This will assist you in prioritizing and organizing each task.
Determine the tasks that can be done for the day. Since you can do a bunch of tasks in one day, analyze each task in your list relative to the due date or deadline. Try to shortlist a number of tasks that you can start and complete for the day. Write these in another paper. Once the task list for the day has been ascertained, then you can proceed to the scheduling of each task.
Set the time of the day for each task. Now that you have a task list for the day, start listing the time of the day wherein you can do the specific task. Place a timeslot there. Make sure to leave a little allowance to the time estimates to complete the tasks. For instance, if a certain task will require an hour to complete, then make sure to give it an hour and 15 minutes on your schedule just in case you won't finish in time. This way, your schedule will not get ruined just by a few minutes of delay. Now, if you do finish early, then you can either get a head start on the next task or take a breather.
Stick to the schedule. Creating the schedule for the day is the easy part. The hard part is sticking to it. A decent level of discipline and awareness will be needed here. To make the schedule more effective, try to keep a copy in your pocket at all times. Once you complete a task, cross it out on the list and proceed with the next one.
The daily schedule is an important tool that you can use to manage your time more efficiently. President Barak Obama uses it every single day hence, you should do too.

Watch Paul Rudd Improv on the Set of Ant-Man and the Wasp
Bobby Cannavale, Michael Douglas and Judy Greer can't believe how "clever" their co-star is
By Zach Johnson Sep 24, 2018 4:00 PMTags
MoviesExclusivesPaul RuddMarvelEntertainment
There's a reason why everyone in Hollywood wants to work with Paul Rudd.
E! News has an exclusive first look at the bonus features for Marvel's Ant-Man and the Wasp (available on digital Oct. 2 and on Blu-ray Oct. 16). Watch as Rudd makes his co-stars laugh with his ingenious improv. "Paul has this great quirkiness, this little twinkle," Michael Douglas says of the "wonderful" actor, who portrays Scott Lang. "He comes up with some great, clever lines."
In fact, Rudd is credited as a writer with Andrew Barrer, Gabriel Ferrari, Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. As co-star Judy Greer notes, "Paul, on set, on the fly, can make anything funny."
Bobby Cannavale, who returns as police officer Jim Paxton, wasn't at all surprised. "Scott's devotion to his family, to his little girl, is something that I very much liked and appreciated. I think the fun that we have on set sort of translates onto the screen," he says. "Paul's a really good friend of mine, Judy Greer's a great friend of mine, so we just do a lot of laughing on set."
2018 People's Choice Awards: Complete List of Finalists
Additional Blu-ray and digital bonus features include a director's intro with Peyton Reed, never-before-seen Stan Lee outtakes, deleted scenes and a special effects demonstration.
Ant-Man and the Wasp, which debuted at No. 1 when it hit theaters July 6, also stars David Dastmalchian, Laurence Fishburne, Abby Ryder Fortson, Walton Goggins, Hannah John-Kamen, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Peña, Randall Park, Michelle Pfeiffer and T.I. The movie follows Scott as he struggles to rebalance his home life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man—something that only gets more complicated when Hank Pym (Douglas) and Hope van Dyne (Lilly) urge him to help rescue Janet van Dyne (Pfeiffer) from the Quantum Realm. Making matters worse? Ghost (John-Kamen) arrives on the scene and threatens to thwart their plans.
Marvel Studios' Ant-Man and the Wasp is available on digital Oct. 2 and on Blu-ray Oct. 16.


After my once-beloved Cardiff City FC turned into a farcical travesty of itself courtesy of a Malaysian ego-maniac, I feared that I had lost one of the great passions in my life.
My last game seeing the hideously rebranded Cardiff RedBlueDragonBirds was on Boxing Day 2012, and that's when I knew the love affair was over for good.
How can I support a team that shed its century old heritage so willingly in the quest for Premiership glory and all the big money crap that comes with it?
Happily, my love and faith in football has been fully restored by the magnificent Dulwich Hamlet, a lower league team who play a short walk from my house. Football has become fun again.
We've got passionate, politically aware fans, proper terraces, great songs – and you can watch the game with a pint in your hand – like football should be seen.
With my love for football fully restored, I couldn't stop myself from sharing the love when I was in Brooklyn, New York earlier this week, proudly adorning snow-covered cars with the mighty Hamlet's name.
I'm pretty sure their owners won't have the faintest idea what it means.
Every proper team should have arch rivals, and for Hamlet, the lowest of the low are Tooting and Mitcham who are, frankly, beyond contempt.
Check out this match report to see how a local derby looks like in lower league football (i.e. a lot of fun).

Can someone make a call? Jamie Vardy needs help
A second striker would ease some of the pressure on Leicester's #9
By Russ McCuen@russmccuen Mar 20, 2018, 2:53pm PDT
Share All sharing options for: Can someone make a call? Jamie Vardy needs help
Since Leicester City were promoted to the Premier League for the 2014 – 2015 season, the Foxes have scored 207 league goals. Jamie Vardy has been directly involved in 37% of them (56 goals, 20 assists).
The only player who has contributed to a greater percentage of his club's goals over that same timeframe is Harry Kane (42%; 99 goals, 14 assists).
Riyad Mahrez may get more attention, not only because of his skill on the ball but also the constant rumors linking him with other clubs, but Vardy is the driving force behind Leicester's potent attack. Without his 14 goals this season (tied for 5th in the league), the Foxes would not be challenging for a spot in the Europa League. Without Vardy's 24 goals over the course of the 2015 – 2016 campaign, including a goal scored in a league-record 11 consecutive matches, Leicester City arguably would not have won the league title. On offense, Vardy is the undisputed first option when the Foxes need a goal. As Vardy goes, so go Leicester City.
And this is why Jamie Vardy needs help.
Leicester City celebrates yet another Jamie Vardy goal
Leicester fans aren't the only ones who realize that Vardy is the Foxes go-to player. Because he is the focal point in the final third of the pitch, the opposition's defense, in particular the back line, can focus the majority of their attention on him. If the opponents play a back four, they can double him on either side of the pitch. If they play a back three, like Chelsea did in their FA Cup win over Leicester, the lone center back can simply follow Vardy from side to side. One way to counter this defensive double team is to play another forward.
Two strikers are double trouble for the defense. A back four can not afford to double team two forwards (especially when they make overlapping runs) because of all the openings this will create on the pitch for the remaining offensive players. Now imagine the problems two all-out attackers could create for a back three. On offense, especially on the quick counterattacks Leicester is known for, a Foxes front two could have applied consistent pressure to Chelsea's back line. On paper, this was the Foxes strategy with Kelechi Iheanacho starting as Vardy's counterpart up front. But would the formation on paper match what actually played out on the pitch?
Often the best way to tell a team's formation is to watch it on defense. When in a true two-forward attack, the front two will split the full backs and the center back(s) on defense.
With so many teams using full backs on offense, players at this position have to be adept at handling the ball. A side effect of the forward-playing full backs is that center backs are usually not involved in a team's attack (outside of corners) and, therefore, do not handle the ball much. When two strikers split the back line on goal kicks, if the keeper plays short, the defenders are trying to force him to play to the center backs. If players who aren't comfortable on the ball are the ones handling it, they are more likely to turn it over. At times, this defense is exactly what Leicester deployed.
On defense two strikers occupy the space between the center back(s) and the full backs
But more often than not, Iheanacho was not up front with Vardy, but instead dropped into the center of the second line. This defensive alignment is a sign a team isn't truly playing two forwards.
Vardy all alone on the first line of defense
On offense, two forwards ideally will split the defense near the 18-yard box. If the attackers stay somewhat close together, the defense will not be able to focus their attention on one over the other. This close proximity also allows the strikers to make overlapping runs, the strategy of which is the same as a stack on set-pieces: force defenders to attempt to occupy the same space, hopefully freeing up an offensive player for a shot on goal.
Two strikers can make overlapping runs, testing the defense while giving a player making a cross two targets on the same line
But Leicester's attack often had Iheanacho distributing to Vardy . . .
Iheanacho in the second line, Vardy all alone up top
Vardy making solo runs into the box . . .
Vardy is Chilwell's only option if he plays the ball into the box
Or Vardy looking for someone to cross to, only to see the penalty area empty.
Vardy looks to cross, but he has no options
Kelechi Iheanacho is only in his first year of hopefully many at Leicester City. The more time he gets on the pitch, in particular the more time he gets to play up front alongside Vardy, the better his interplay with Vardy will be. But even when Iheanacho appears to be given the chance to be Vardy's striking partner, the positions he occupies on the pitch suggest manager Claude Puel has other tactical ideas.
The sooner Puel embraces a two-striker system, the better for not only Vardy but for the club as a whole. In the short term, the duel runs made by Vardy and Iheanacho will synchronize, resulting in less runs that hint at a lack of familiarity between players as was often the case versus Chelsea. In the long term, Leicester will see if they already have Vardy's eventual replacement on their roster. (Hopefully Vardy will remain with the club for quite some time, but he is already 31 years old, semi-old for a #9. The sooner the striker succession plan is in place, the better.)
When it comes to being the primary offense for his team, there are few in the league that are as important to their club as Jamie Vardy is to Leicester City. It's evident that opposing coaches know this, too, as the tactics they deploy suggest Vardy is the target of their defensive game plan. This was definitely the case against Chelsea in the FA Cup.
And Vardy still scored.
1-1!! Who else but Jamie M.F. Vardy??

The fire began in Golden Gate Estates around 2 p.m. Wednesday and at one point separated into about six different brush fires because of the spread of embers or flames.
Schuldt said Friday morning that the fire remains about 5% to 10% contained.
Mandatory evacuations remain in place for people living along at least a dozen roads in the area. But Schuldt urged all residents living near the fire to be vigilant, regardless of the evacuation order.
"We don't want people to let their guards down," he said.
Did you know?:Sheriff's office puts new mandatory evacuations in place
He warned people not to be "fooled" by the light rain falling Friday morning. "We want a lot of rain," Schuldt said, but he added, "The light sprinkles you have right here are not doing anything out there to suppress the fire."
"Its not a bad thing," Schuldt said, "but this is not going to extinguish and 8,000 acre fire."
About 200 firefighters from around the state – as far away as Tampa, Miami and Orlando – have descended on Collier County to battle the blaze.
The Florida Forest Service is taking the lead battling the fire in the wildlands, while district firefighters are taking the lead defending structures, Schuldt said.
Florida Forest Service firefighters are cutting plow lines around the fire with tractors.
"They try to ring the fire to cut it off, create a fire break if you will. Once that fire break is in place we can go in with our off-road vehicles and actually extinguish the fires," Schuldt said.
Schuldt said his firefighters are making difficult decisions out in the field.
"They have to make the real time decision on do we try to save that structure, do we try to rescue somebody, do we try to help the farm animals, which is a huge issue in the wildland areas," Schuldt said. "These men and women are putting their lives on the line, not only all day, but each house they go to is a separate battle."

Nazi Archives Will Support Greece's Escalating Claims For German War Reparations
As Greeks solemnly remembered the horrific acts of 72 years ago (when the first of 19 trains transported nearly 50,000 local jews to Nazi death camps), the Greek President Pavlopoulos made statements today that he "remains adamant" that "Greece's demands for German war reparations and the occupation loan are active and can be claimed legally." German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble has once again ruled out the possibility of a retreat from what Berlin has already officially said on the matter - that the issue has been settled decades ago. But, today the Greek Defense Minister issued a statement confirming that archives that they possess from Nazi armed forces support the country's claims for reparations.
As we previously explained, Kathimerini reports,
Greece's Supreme Court ruled in favor of Distomo survivors in 2000, but the decision has not been enforced. Distomo, a small village in central Greece, lost 218 lives in a Nazi massacre in 1944.
"The law states that in order to implement the ruling of the Supreme Court, the minister of justice has to order it. I believe this permission should be given and I'm ready to give it, notwithstanding any obstacles," Paraskevopoulos told Antenna TV on Wednesday.
"There must probably be some negotiation with Germany," said Paraskevopoulos, who first announced his intention Tuesday during a Parliament debate on the creation of a committee to seek war reparations, the repayment of a forced loan and the return of antiquities.
But, as Bloomberg now reports, it apoears the Greek legal standing just improved further...
Greece to use archives it possesses of Wehrmacht, or Nazi armed forces, to support country's claim for war reparations from Germany for damages inflicted during World War II in period 1941-1944, Greek Defense Ministry says in e-mailed statement.
Archives on Nazi occupation of Greece contain >400,000 pages.
Work to digitize microfilms containing archives to be completed soon.
Archives include Wehrmacht officer diary entries, reports to superiors.
As would be expected, GreekReporter notes, Germany is not happy...
The long standing dispute regarding Germany's war reparations toward Greece have once again topped news headlines in both countries, amid a "cold" period in their relations. German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble has once again ruled out the possibility of a retreat from what Berlin has already officially said on the matter. As he explained in an interview to Austrian newspaper Der Standard, in which he also commented on the Greek program, the issue has been settled decades ago.
At the same time, Spiegel became the first German publication to propose that World War II reparations should be paid to Greece in order to close the matter and subtract an argument from Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras' negotiations quiver. The article noted that such a move would be politically and morally correct, and added that this will also reduce the arguments of the Greek side.
"Alexis Tsipras has threatened with confiscation of German property in Greek territory," the article reminded, regarding Greek media reports on the matter, which said that this would be the Greek government's "plan b," while adding that Defense Minister Panos Kammenos has argued that the war reparations payment would be a good solution for today's debt crisis.
"Seventy years after the war ended and while there has been a large transfer of funds through the European Union, this is not honest," Spiegel noted, blaming the German government for helping the Greek criticism when appearing unwilling to discuss the matter and repeated that it has already been settled.
As we concluded previously,
...digging up old wounds will merely accelerate the (less than) amicable parting of ways, especially after a speech earlier by ECB's Draghi in which he said that ECB bond buying "may be shielding countries in the euro zone from any knock-on effect from events in Greece, ECB President Mario Draghi said on Wednesday."

5 Ways My Son And I Continue To Explore Eorzea Differently
My oldest son and I continue to play Final Fantasy 14: The Hunt for Good Glamour. He has played countless hours grinding up most of his classes to 80 and completing the most recent content; I have beaten the main storyline of the Shadowbringers expansion but have yet to explore many of the bonus dungeons and raids. All in good time, I suppose.
To the left is a catgirl. To the right is an Au Ra disguised as an Elezen.
Oh hey, our races changed a little bit. My oldest son went from Demon Girl to Elf Girl, and his reasoning was rather interesting – he got tired of how the Au Ra tail looked and how it clipped with his favorite armor sets. My character, on the other hand, went full on cat girl. My experience suggest this is because I secretly enjoy it when random players hit me up for sexual RP and when I turn them down and claim I'm leveling they'll throw me a line like "Forget about grinding for levels, I'll give you something even better to grind against!" God I wish I were kidding there. I dunno, the idea of having a better haircut for my character seemed fun at the time I had the option but I get harassed a little bit too much now and it makes me wonder.
In my last article, I listed 7 ways that my son and I approached this game differently. A few things have changed since then, so I thought it would be fun to revisit. He agreed, and here we are.
Least Favorite Dungeon
My son is not at all a fan of The Vault. This is a level 57 Heavensword Dungeon that he claims he's had one too many party wipes during. "The bosses are all of a sudden hard now, and people have to do the mechanics or they die. Since level 57 isn't the highest level in the game, people tend to underestimate the importance of doing the mechanics or worse yet not realize there ARE mechanics, and this results in lots of wipes and sometimes broken gear."
My least favorite dungeon, by far, is Haukke Manor, the level 28-31 dungeon that to this date holds the infamy of being the only dungeon I've ever force left a party on. I'm not at all kidding.
As a pre-30 dungeon, it forces players to not have full access to their arsenal, which sucks. But it's also a dungeon that encourages players to join without having their advanced class gemstone, which isn't much of a dealbreaker in and of itself but often younger players that haven't bothered to get this also haven't bothered to keep up on their gear. This dungeon is also so tediously long. It's the only dungeon I know of in the game where players reach a point where they cast /return on themselves to go back to the beginning because this is easier than to run the whole way back. It isn't a difficult dungeon per se, but it is exceptionally tedious.
By the way, my son continued to run that dungeon that I left with the AFK Bard and the "brand new Dark Knight with no jewelry and caster gear." To his credit, though, he beat the darn thing.
Least Favorite Character
My son answered this quickly: "Most of them." He finds most of that characters to be boring. They don't really mesh with him well. This is not a sentiment I feel, but I understand where he is coming from. Some of the stronger storytelling elements of this game pull from earlier works, especially earlier Final Fantasy games, and these are easily lost on a newer generation.
My son says "When I started the new story in the latest patch and the first cutscene I saw had Lyse in it, I was extremely sad. I feel she should die horrible, to Xenos, maybe tripping and falling and taking Minfillia with her. And I know, Minfillia is dead, but I expect any moment she'll respawn and expect me to pray return to the Waking Sands, so maybe a pre-emptive killing is in order."
I feel him on Minfillia.
I haven't started the newest patches yet, hell I just recently finished The Ivalice Raids, so a lot of my opinions on characters I don't like are still marred by that. That said, is there anyone else who plays this game who actually LIKES the Ascians as characters and don't feel that they are at best poorly utilized?
Favorite Class
My son still is rocking the Dragoon, which he claims is "the best DPS job in the game, and the only one that can tank the ground so the party doesn't have to." That said, he has grown to love Red Mage as well, claiming "In a good party it helps make it a best party, and in a poor party it helps keep it up by spamming Verraise."
I still have Warrior, but I also recently got Scholar to 80. Scholar really shined in the last several levels with access to faerie magics. That said, the level grind between about 50 and 60 are a bit of a chore. We'll see if I ever grab a more traditional healing class. I continue to explore classes to see if there is something there I might like.
My son states that his favorite boss fight is the new Emerald Weapon. He claims "It's got good music, lots of stuff going on to keep you on your toes but it all makes sense and it isn't too bright and flashy." He claims his least favorite is "The slime from Copperbell Mines. It's slow and three of the roles are totally useless. It just isn't fun."
I would argue my favorite fight is going to be the Gilgamesh fight tied to the Hildabrand quests. I mean, the fight itself is fun loving enough, but everyone is in a fun mood when that one pops on roulette. No one ever goes "Man, I'm tired of getting Gilgamesh and his chickens" or "Why did we get Gilgamesh again!?"
I don't know if I have a least favorite fight, in and of itself, but I will say full stop every day I get Castrum Meridianum instea of Prae' is a bad day. Although it can be fun to wipe an entire full party by pulling a certain group of mobs too early. I am bad and I should feel bad, but I don't. I believe there is an argument that Castrum results in slightly more experience points than Prae' in less time played, but Prae can be played while reading a good book or watching a good show. Also, people who are in Castrum with me have to listen to the same joke over and over again: "Time to enter the disposal chute/because that's where the trash goes!"
My son left the Free Company we both had been in to join up with some new group that's "more in-game= focused" and I'm trying to be more supportive of him, even if his choice makes it harder to trash talk parties the two of us are in. Now, instead of using Free Company Chat, we have to shout across the house. "Did you see the armor THAT guy is wearing?"
My son is super excited he got the mount from the Crown of the Immaculate Extreme fight in "just" 39 tries. Only 39. Just a small number of 39. Now he can focus on playing the game! He likes to help other people out, do extreme trials, and go mount and minion hunting. I don't understand this, since you literally can only use one mount at a time. Go unlock flying in the zones you haven't yet instead, kid.
My goals are a lot more laid back. At some point, I need to knock out the Nier raids, maybe complete 5.1? I also started work on a Heavensward Relic, or "Anime Weapons" which I think go "Kawaii Desu Ne" every time you swing them or something I dunno. Now that all of my crafting classes are 80, I need to get better at making money actually crafting. As an aside, my Chocobo is level 14, which is one step closer to having a companion at 20! I'd also like to have more classes in the 70 range for Bi-color gem farming.
Maybe I'll drag my son into a Palace of the Dead run. If I do, I'll need two other dumb people to come along, AND I'll have to record it. If you know anyone, feel free to leave a comment below.

Solar Sports to share coverage of Pacquiao v Mayweather in Philippines
Pay-television broadcaster Solar Sports has sublicensed rights in the Philippines for the upcoming world welterweight boxing clash between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Junior to free-to-air broadcasters ABS-CBN, GMA-7 and TV5.
The deal will ensure that the May 2 fight is shown live on the three biggest free-to-air media platforms in the Philippines, as well as the Cignal and Sky Cable pay-per-view channels and the Solar Sports pay-television channel.
Earlier this week, the event's promoter, Top Rank, revealed that Solar Sports had acquired rights for the fight for a fee of $10m (€9.5m).
Pacquiao has an exclusive rights deal with GMA-7, but the broadcaster waived its right to exclusivity after a personal request from the Filipino fighter, according to GMA-7 executive vice-president Felipe Yalong.
"The important thing is that Manny himself played an important role in putting this thing together," Solar Sports chief executive Wilson Tieng said, according to the Rappler news website.

Rather simple, although most of the challenges today revolve around Multiplayer and are rather simply done. For this you can crack on with some weekly challenge Firefight, or if you're done with that, stick on some speedy custom Firefight. That usually gets it out of the way quickly.
A single Plasma Grenade stick isn't that hard. Gametypes that involve Elites are good as that guarantees Plasma Grenades somewhere. Invasion, Elite Slayer, Dino Blasters are gametypes where the Elites are. Normal games still have Plasmas but at a much smaller amount.
One of the tougher gametypes. Games such as SWAT and Snipers rely on headshots more than other games, but the limit of kills or style of game doesn't go well for everyone. Games like Invasion give Humans a Pistol or DMR at all times and Elites a Needle Rifle from the second set onwards. Go for kills, let the games go on a bit longer than normal.
Carnage is what you want. Multi-Team, Grifball, Living Dead; These are the good gametypes you want. These will give you many Multi-Kills but you ant to stick to doubles if possible. It's doable in any gametype really, just easier in some.

Shirley Collins and Alan Lomax are at the 1959 Newport Folk Festival, just prior to their great song-hunting 'Southern Journey'. She finds the festival 'a great disappointment' (p.56), due to the liberties the performers take with their material. There's a singer with a voice which is too operatic (Martha Schlamme), and a band who kid around too much (The Kingston Trio). There are other performers she does like, who are less ostentatious, less prone to mix and match styles (Jimmy Driftwood, Jean Ritchie, Frank Warner, Earl Scruggs). Her criticism raises a question about what folk music is: if its great virtue is that it is open to all — a way of history being told, for once, by the losers — then how can rules be imposed by the winners? Disliking a performance is one thing, censuring it for failing to conform to a particular mould is more dubious. Presumably Martha Schlamme intended to sing the way she did, and The Kingston Trio intended to kid around. It's similar to the old rockism debate, argued firmly on the side of tradition, and against the kind of stylistic hybridity which is the lifeblood of pop music. There is also a class element to what Collins says: she may mean that folk music should only be made by the 'despised, abused and neglected', and that modern distortions by performers jumping on the folk revival bandwagon are therefore an affront to and a dilution of a proud outsider tradition.
This is from one of the letters home to her mother and sister that Collins gives in their entirety. She's no mean archivist herself, and includes many letters, postcards and photos in the book. If she can find a piece of writing she did at the time, she uses this directly rather than re-writing, and it helps to capture the spirit of this irrepressible young woman, who seems to have made friends wherever she went. The final chapter, 'The Ending', gives a potted history of Collins' subsequent career and the loss of confidence which led to her giving it up, so there's a fragility too to the joyous letters from an earlier time. Their spirit won't be lost, but it won't remain quite unbroken either.

Benjamin Franklin takes the honor (or the blame, depending on your view of the time changes) for coming up with the idea to reset clocks in the summer months as a way to conserve energy, according to David Prerau, author of "Seize the Daylight: The Curious and Contentious Story of Daylight Saving Time" (Thunder's Mouth Press, 2005). By moving clocks forward, people could take advantage of the extra evening daylight rather than wasting energy on lighting. At the time, Franklin was ambassador to Paris and so wrote a witty letter to the Journal of Paris in 1784, rejoicing over his "discovery" that the sun provides light as soon as it rises.
Even so, DST didn't officially begin until more than a century later. Germany established DST in May 1916 as a way to conserve fuel during World War I. The rest of Europe came onboard shortly thereafter. And in 1918, the United States adopted daylight saving time.
Though President Woodrow Wilson wanted to keep daylight saving time after WWI ended, the country was mostly rural at the time and farmers objected, partly because it would mean they lost an hour of morning light. (It's a myth that DST was instituted to help farmers.) And so daylight saving time was abolished until the next war brought it back into vogue. At the start of WWII, on Feb. 9, 1942, President Franklin Roosevelt re-established daylight saving time year-round, calling it "War Time."
After the war, a free-for-all system in which U.S. states and towns were given the choice of whether or not to observe DST led to chaos. And in 1966, to tame such "Wild West" mayhem, Congress enacted the Uniform Time Act. That federal law meant that any state observing DST — and they didn't have to jump on the DST bandwagon — had to follow a uniform protocol throughout the state in which daylight saving time would begin on the first Sunday of April and end on the last Sunday of October.
Then, in 2007, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 went into effect, expanding the length of daylight saving time to the present timing.
Why do we still have daylight saving time?
Fewer than 40 percent of the world's countries observe daylight saving time, according to timeanddate.com. However, those who do take advantage of the natural daylight in the evenings. That's because the days start to get longer as Earth moves from the winter season to spring and summer, with the longest day of the year on the summer solstice. During the summer, Earth, which revolves around its axis at an angle, is tilted directly toward the sun (at least its top half).
As Earth orbits the sun, it also spins around its own imaginary axis. Because it revolves around this axis at an angle, different parts of our planet experience the sun's direct rays at different times of the year, leading to the seasons.
Regions farthest away from the equator and closer to the poles get the most benefit from the DST clock change, because there is a more dramatic change in sunlight throughout the seasons.
Research has also suggested that with more daylight in the evenings, there are fewer traffic accidents, as there are fewer cars on the road when it's dark outside. More daylight also could mean more outdoor exercise (or exercise at all) for full-time workers.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot said Tuesday that a public health emergency was underway, warning that all unvaccinated people in Brooklyn would now be held receive measles-mumps-rubella vaccine (MMR) or be subject to strict penalties. The emergency situation has been declared due to an epidemic of the disease among ultra-Orthodox Jews living in the area.
Today, I declare a public health emergency due to the measles epidemic. @nycHealthy orders all Williamsburg residents to be vaccinated against measles. https://t.co/1u29736yTy
– Commissioner Oxiris Barbot (@NYCHealthCommr) April 9, 2019
The New York Department of Health and Mental Health will check the vaccination records of anyone who may have been exposed to infected patients. Anyone who has not been vaccinated or who shows proof of immunity may be subject to a violation and fined $ 1,000.
The order also prohibits unvaccinated students from going to school or daycare. Any school or daycare facility allowing unvaccinated students to attend school could be punishable by offenses punishable by a fine of $ 1,000 per offense, or even a closure.
We urge all who can get vaccinated to get vaccinated. As Passover approaches, it is important for all New Yorkers to be vaccinated, especially if they plan to go overseas to Europe or Israel, or areas of the United States where the outbreak is important.
At a press conference on Tuesday, Mr. de Blasio stressed the need for urgent action before the Passover holidays, as many people will travel and meet during the Passover holiday, which could significantly increase the risk that outbreaks will develop much, much worse.
Join me for an update on how we are dealing with the measles outbreak in Williamsburg. https://t.co/otgNpRYtlp
– Mayor Bill de Blasio (@NYCMayor) April 9, 2019
"It's a disease that can spread in hours," Blasio said. "It can be fatal."
The measles vaccine will be given to all those who need it in New York vaccination centers, even those who can not afford it.
New Yorkers can get vaccinated @nycHealthyImmunization clinics: https://t.co/zfIUDgR4Sg or call @ nyc311 to find a place to get vaccinated.

285 people have been infected since the beginning of the epidemic in the Orthodox Jewish community of New York since last October.
Jewish community leaders worked with the New York City government to try to curb the epidemic, but New York's yeshivas violated orders from the health department to bar students from entering infected several times since the beginning of the epidemic.
We have worked closely with the community, religious leaders and schools to ensure that vulnerable people are safe during this epidemic and to challenge the dangerous misinformation spread by a group of anti-vaxxers.
Most cases of measles outbreaks have been reported in Borough Park and Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Large outbreaks of measles have been reported around the world, including a major epidemic in Israel.
There have been reports of "measles parties" in which children are brought to an infected person to become infected. Dr. Herminia Palacio, deputy mayor of health and social services in New York, pointed out at the press conference that this practice was extremely dangerous and should be avoided. At the press conference, officials also pointed out that the vaccine is 97% effective and that its safety has been proven.
According to the Times of Israel, an air hostess from El Al was hospitalized in a serious condition last week after catching measles on a flight connecting John F. Kennedy Airport to New York. York at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv.
No deaths were reported during the outbreak in New York, but some patients ended up in intensive care with serious complications.

Home > Automotive & Transportation > Electric Off-Road Vehicles Market
Electric Off-Road Vehicles Market Size By Vehicle (ATV, SSV/UTV, Off-Road Motorcycles), By Application (Utility, Sports, Recreation, Military), Industry Analysis Report, Regional Outlook, Growth Potential, Price Trends, Competitive Market Share & Forecast, 2021 – 2027
Electric Off-Road Vehicles Market size exceeded USD 115 million in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of over 10% between 2021 and 2027. Growing demand for environmentally friendly and zero-emission off-road vehicles across the globe is likely to drive industry growth.
Electric off-road vehicles include all-terrain vehicles (ATV), side-by-side/utility vehicles (SSV/UTV), and off-road motorcycles that are fully battery operated. These vehicles are witnessing rapid growth in the market representation as they are highly eco-friendly and do not release any harmful emissions. The amplifying market demand for electric off-road vehicles from millennial population is supporting the industry growth.
Growing participation in off-road leisure activities along with the rising demand for ATVs and UTVs among youngsters is driving the electric off-road vehicles market. According to the 2020 industry analysis report by the Outdoor Industry Association, over half of the U.S. population aged six and above participated in at least one outdoor recreational activity in 2019.
The companies are capitalizing on lucrative market opportunities to launch new products and gain a competitive advantage. For instance, in March 2021, Polaris, Inc. launched the 2021 model of its electric UTV, Ranger EV. Similarly, in March 2021, BRP Group announced its plans to introduce electric off-road vehicles and power sports models by 2026. The company is set to invest USD 300 million over the coming years to electrify its product line. It is focusing on developing its Rotax electric powerpack technology for electric off-road vehicles, further contributing to the market size through 2027.
One of the key restraints to the industry growth is the environmental damage caused by electric off-road vehicles. As per the U.S. Department of Transportation, the vehicles cause loss of original ground cover by around 60%. ATV & UTV churn up the soil, damage the root system, and accelerate soil erosion, increasing sedimentation in waterways. Diesel and gasoline powered off-road vehicles also create loud noise, disturbing wildlife and the surrounding ecosystem. However, the introduction of silent electric off-road vehicles will mitigate the impact of this restraint and assist the market to grow.
