Q: Need to configure second NIC to bridge LXC I installed Ubuntu 16.04 Server on a machine with 4 network cards. I have interfaces eth0 and eth1 connected to the same switch. The interface eth0 is meant for the remote SSH connection to manage the server. I want to use eth1 to be bridged by br0. This bridge I want to use for LXC containers. This setup in a DHCP environment did not cause me any problems. The challenge is that the network this server is installed in is fully static. I received an IP range for this server with same subnet mask and gateway.
Setting up eth0 was no problem:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
   address   195.x.x.2
   network   195.x.x.0
   netmask   255.255.255.0
   gateway   195.x.x.1
   broadcast 195.x.x.255
   dns-nameservers 150.x.x.105 150.x.x.106

The problem comes with the second interface eth1, because it has the same gateway as eth0 Ubuntu warns that only one default gateway can be set (which is logical). Therefor I had set eth1 as follows:
auto eth1
iface eth1 net static
    address   195.x.x.3
    network   195.x.x.0
    netmask   255.255.255.0
    broadcast 195.x.x.255

Problem with this setup is that I can externally ping eth0 at IP 195.x.x.2 but eth1 cannot be pinged or accessed via SSH. I managed to make it work with a lot of routing trickery but as many articles write on this that this way is a hole which gets deeper if you have static bridge and containers for this.
My question is: Does anyone has a straight forward approach for my issue? How should I configure eth0 and eth1 to normally bridge the containers to eth1 with static IP numbers?

A: Ok I solved it in the following manner, by still proceeding with the gateway routing solution as described in the question. Maybe people with the same issue could use this approach as well or if somebody knows a better solution feel free to comment.
On the host:
I enabled ARP filtering:
sysctl -w net.ip4.conf.all.arp_filter=1
echo "net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter = 1" >> /etc/sysctl.conf

Configured the /etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo
iface lo net loopback

# The primary network interface
auto etc0
iface eth0 inet static
   address   195.x.x.2
   network   195.x.x.0
   netmask   255.255.255.0
   gateway   195.x.x.1
   broadcast 195.x.x.255
   up ip route add 195.x.x.0/24 dev eth0 src 195.x.x.2 table eth0table
   up ip route add default via 195.x.x.1 dev eth0 table eth0table
   up ip rule add from 195.x.x.2 table eth0table
   up ip route add 195.x.x.0/24 dev eth0 src 195.0.0.2
   dns-nameservers 150.x.x.105 150.x.x.106

# The secondary network interface
auto eth1
iface eth1 net manual

# LXC bridge interface
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
   address   195.x.x.3
   network   195.x.x.0
   netmask   255.255.255.0
   bridge_ifaces  eth1
   bridge_ports   eth1
   bridge_stp     off
   bridge_fd      0
   bridge_maxwait 0
   up ip route add 195.x.x.0/24 dev br0 src 195.x.x.3 table br0table
   up ip route add default via 195.x.x.1 dev br0 table br0table
   up ip rule add from 195.x.x.3 table br0table
   up ip route add 195.x.x.0/24 dev br0 src 195.0.0.3

Added the following lines to /etc/iproute2/rt_tables:
...
10 et0table
20 br0table

At the container config file (/var/lib/lxc/[container name]/config):
...
lxc.network.type = vets
lxc.network.link = br0
lxc.network.flags = up
lxc.network.hwadr = [auto create when bringing up container]
lxc.network.ipv4 = 195.x.x.4/24
lxc.network.ipv4.gateway = 195.x.x.1
lxc.network.veth.pair = [readable server name] (when using ifconfig)
lxc.start.auto = 0 (1 if you want the server to autostart)
lxc.start.delay = 0 (fill in seconds you want the container to wait before start)

I tested it by enabling apache2 on the container and accessed the webpage from outside the network. Hope it helps anybody who bumps into the same challenge I did.
PS: Do not forget if you choose to have the container's config file to assign the IP, that you disable it in the interface file of the container itself.
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 net manual

And happy 31st anniversary to a ten-year-old and his dysfunctional family from the fictional American town of Springfield.
The Simpsons first aired as a full animated series on this day in 1989, and in 2018 it notched up the highest episode count of any series on TV. Season 31 started in November of this year.
In these uncertain times, that sort of longevity feels impressive. Surely, though, it's foolish to compare the long-running cartoon with real life. The eponymous family has, after all, dealt with various implausible scenarios including a flu that originated in Asia, President Trump and the pitfalls of an Australian-style boot-based immigration system.
It's perhaps very 2020 to realise that we're living out what counted as zany parody only two decades ago. At least we don't have any monorails.
The world has changed fundamentally during the show's lifetime, and its ability to pass gently barbed comment on the issues of the day was always key to its success. While not every aspect has aged well, especially the protracted misstep of white actors voicing people of colour, The Simpsons for so long demonstrated how a well-loved format could navigate shifting cultural and political landscapes.
After years of best-selling box-sets and a protracted run on terrestrial TV in the UK, the entire back-catalogue was added to the UK version of Disney+ for its launch this year, a move clearly inspired by the enduring popularity of millennial staples Friends and The Office on rival streaming platforms.
Even though more recent seasons are proving less popular, the show has shown its ability to once again cross formats by penetrating meme culture. In the era of Covid-19 and working from home, Homer disappearing into a hedge has become a mainstay for work-shy instant messengers around the country; and even more than ever, we can all empathise with Sideshow Bob repeatedly stepping on rakes.
With travel so challenging over Christmas, Disney executives must be hoping that after 31 years, plenty of people are still tempted by a quick trip to Springfield.
Public Health Wales has announced that an extra 11,000 positive Covid-19 test results are missing from official figures, meaning that cases in the last week could be twice as high as previously thought.
The US is expected to charge another suspect in relation to the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, which killed 270 people. A Libyan intelligence officer is expected to be extradited to the US to stand trial. In 2001, another Libyan intelligence officer – Abdelbaset al-Megrahi – was the only person convicted of the attack on Pan Am flight 103 after it exploded in mid-air.
In a UK first, Southwark Crown Court has found that dangerous levels of air pollution "made a material contribution" to the death of nine-year-old Ella Kissi-Debrah in 2013. The coroner's ruling follows a second inquest into the child's death in London.
Bitcoin has risen by around 20% this week, pushing past $22,000 for the first time, attracting predictions that more gains lie ahead for the world's largest cryptocurrency. Proponents argue that Bitcoin is joining gold as an important portfolio diversifier or 'safe haven' amid dollar weakness, but critics suggest the latest surge is a bubble that will burst spectacularly.
Despite hopes of a trade deal, increased stockpiling by UK companies before the end of the Brexit transition period on has triggered road congestion and costly delays in northern France and southern England. Ahead of the 1 January deadline, lorries have been queuing for cross-Channel ferries and the tunnel on what is one of the world's busiest freight routes. (£)
The outgoing US administration is in talks with the UK to try to seal a 'mini' trade deal to reduce trade tariffs on Scotch Whisky in particular. US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer says he is hopeful for a deal following UK commitments to drop tariffs against the US that relate to subsidies for aerospace firms.
There's no festive cheer in David Aaronovitch's piece for The Times on Christmas Covid-19 restrictions. He worries that if ministers don't find the courage to restrict family gatherings, thousands of people could die. He makes an impassioned plea that extended mixing when the vaccine is so close seems to make very little sense. (£)
Writing in The Guardian, Martin Kettle suggests that we may be seeing a more "consensual" government style from the prime minister after Dominic Cummings' departure. He stresses that his observations are both relative and conditional and will not diminish the fact that Boris Johnson will always be a "marmite" figure.

London-listed stocks finished up on Wednesday, with positive sentiment driven by rising hopes of a Brexit deal and reports of progress on a US stimulus deal. The FTSE 100 finished the session up by 0.88% at 6,570.91, and the FTSE 250 was also up, by 1.23% to reach 20,096.56.
In the US, Wall Street stocks had a more mixed day as markets reacted to the Federal Reserve decision to hold interest rates steady. At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down by 0.15% to 30,154.54, while the S&P 500 rose 0.18% to 3,701.17, and the Nasdaq Composite was up by 0.5% at 12,658.19.
In currency markets, sterling was also in positive territory, rising 0.29% on the dollar to $1.35, and improving very slightly by 0.03% against the euro to hit €1.11.
UK housebuilders gained amid Brexit deal hopes, with Barratt Developments up 4.64%, Taylor Wimpey rising 2.33% and Persimmon up 1.88%. Elsewhere, electricals retailer Dixons Carphone rose sharply by 12.34% after it reported online trading was strong in the lead up to Christmas, offsetting store closures.

Home Science This is how the meteorite that destroyed the dinosaurs was created
This is how the meteorite that destroyed the dinosaurs was created
Cary Douglas Feb 16, 2021 0 Comments
Magazine Natural Published a study led by Harvard University (USA) that explains how this phenomenon could have occurred.
The impact of the Cyclone meteorite changed the history of the Earth forever 66 million years ago, causing the extinction of 75% of the species, including dinosaurs, but where did it come from, and how did it get to our planet?
Nature magazine this Monday released a new theory developed by experts at Harvard University (USA) that could shed light on a catastrophic event that raises many more doubts. (Read: Confirmed: Asteroid impact kills dinosaurs)
In addition to its devastating effects, the authors claim that the impact of that "asteroid or comet" left an abyss more than 180 kilometers in diameter and nearly 20 kilometers deep in the Gulf of Mexico.
To complete the puzzle, experts Avi Lope and Amir Siraj, through statistical analysis and gravity simulations, argue that a significant portion of a comet appeared in the Ort cloud – a space debris sphere located at the edge of the system's Solar System – deviating from Jupiter's gravitational field.
That force moved the comet toward the sun, which in turn broke it into more fragments, increasing the number of bodies that could enter Earth's orbit, such as the Sixth, and fall to Earth once every 250 to 750 million years, approximately.
"Basically, Jupiter acts like a 'pinball' machine. These incoming comets (so-called for a long time) are orbiting Jupiter in very close orbits, "Siraj explained in a statement.
Because these long-lived comets can take up to 200 years to orbit the sun, experts have called them "sunbursts." (Here: Columbia had a flying reptile 135 million years ago)
See also Steam was first discovered on one of Jupiter's moons
"When we talk about these suns, the important thing is that they do not melt, which relatively affects the total mass, but being very close to the sun, its closest part is subjected to a higher gravitational force than the comet's, which creates a wave force."
He emphasizes that this phenomenon, when large comets break into small pieces and leave orbit, "has a statistical probability that they will affect the Earth".
Lope and Siraj's calculations say that the probability of long-term comets affecting our planet is "about 10", while up to 20% of these are "sunshine", according to studies by other astronomers.
They also claim that the "new impact rate" is similar to the age of the Sixth Cave, which provides a satisfactory description of its origin and other similar "attack comets".
"What we are exposing is that if you break an object when it is close to the sun, it can lead to a series of relevant events, as well as the impact of destroying dinosaurs," Lope emphasizes.


We would also like to thank everyone that attempted to reach their positions on SS2 and SS3, and not forgetting all the other marshals at the other venues of the event, unfortunately the weather beat us and the snow and sheet ice prevented you from achieving your goal and enabling us to run the stages.
The decision to cancel / abandon the event was not an easy one and one that was not taken lightly, but with a lot of sadness.
It became clear that we had problems when it was reported that marshals could not reach their locations in Aberhirnant, options to cut were looked at and even to run it only in the afternoon, but the snow was still falling heavily. The safety car team were dispatched to various locations to gather information to enable an informed decision to be made.
1. Safety of the competing crews.
2. Could we respond to an incident if one occurred?
3. The welfare of the marshals and spectators, could we get them out after the stage after it was closed and would that be in daylight?
4. The time that the marshals would to be exposed in the extreme weather if we ran the event.
5. Likely issues involving support vehicles as they were already getting stuck in the management area.
6. The dangers that the conditions may create on the exit road from SS3.
7. Existing weather conditions and forecast.
The team responded and acted in a totally dedicated and professional way, using their years of experience to gather the information for me without hesitation, but with their total support and quick and prompt response I was able to make an informed decision about the safe running of the event. The decision was supported by the MSA Steward and the MSA Delegate.


And if you continue to be the pestilent amnesiac you shall not be conned into dreaming the false dream, tainted by endless cyclical horrors, manufactured by the gate guards of this lessor state, seduced by the glitter of their thrones.
Shallow mechanical minds; who find it a threat, dismiss the Theban magicians who studied deeply the realm beyond the caged senses; that veil between birth and death; that filament of a matrix leading from one to the other, understood how to unhinge that cycle of reincarnation through the alchemy of embalmment.
But we, on the other hand, are muddled by the impediment of that cage with which the dogmatists of science bind us the moment we pass through the matrix of the birth canal into this land of form. The theologians, standing by, smack you on the rear-end to kick-start the aspirating mechanism, then sprinkle you with H2O, while blessing you with vision as far as your eyes can see, a vision soon to be qualified and bolstered by established crusty peer-reviewed vision.
The image in the mirror is really me and I its reflection. Just ask Alice.

Home Technologies Elon Musk wants to colonize Mars. Is it profitable?
Elon Musk wants to colonize Mars. Is it profitable?
Musk, the company's CEO and chief engineer, says that his interplanetary ambition is closer to a science fiction protagonist with a moral vocation than an entrepreneur with a disruptive business plan.
SpaceX will still take years to develop all the technology needed to settle on Mars. The company is in the early stages of developing Starship, a massive rocket and spacecraft system that hopes Musk will transport people's cargo and transports across the air gap of at least 30 million miles between Earth and Mars. Musk estimates that Starship development will cost up to $10 billion, and Musk said on August 31 that Space X will launch "hundreds of" satellites before giving Starship human lives.
"It's not for people with weak hearts," Musk said. "You are likely to die and it will be hard… well you will be pretty glorious."
The idea of terraforming came from scientists kicking the idea, but not from someone who thought it was something humans could or should do, Meyer said.
"It was an intellectual movement," Meyer said. However, there is very little oxygen in Mars' atmosphere. And the amount of water is extremely small. This means that crops will be extremely difficult to grow and the water cycle across Mars will be much less. It's not even clear that Mars has enough resources to make terraforming possible.
Musk also admitted that terraforming would be extremely resource intensive. However, since the concept is rooted in SpaceX's knowledge, the company sells t-shirts called "Nuke Mars" and "Occupy Mars".
Meyer said there are no known resources on Mars that are known to be worth mining mines and selling them back to businesses on Earth. "Part of the reason [scientists are] The interest in Mars is that it is made of almost the same material as Earth," he told CNN Business.
Aside from their money-making ambitions, the idea that Mars could one day become a metropolis home and potentially a tourist destination is recognized by mainstream scientists like Meyer, NASA's chief Mars expert.
Meyer said he attended a presentation on Mars business and tourism 20 years ago. "I went pretty skeptical about this. And then I said,'Well, [there are] It's a pretty reasonable idea," he said. He added that he now accepts the idea that businessmen can make space travel more accessible.
Zubrin, who leads Mars society, wrote in his frequently cited book "The Case of Mars" in 1996, "The idea may have another export potential to Martian colonists."
"Just as the labor shortage prevalent in colonies and 19th-century America led to the invention flood of Yankee Ingenuity, so severe labor shortages tend to drive Mars ingenuity."
In a recent interview with CNN Business, Zubrin supported these ideas, arguing that American colonization would work. Zubrin once again recalls colonization in North America as an example of how Martian colonists could liquidate their Earth's possessions to finance their travels or finance their travels as "contracted slaves".
"Okay, if you say you want to go to Mars, you'll want to offer something," Zubrin said. "Looking at Colonial America, the middle class can liquidate their farms and travel to the US. But the proceeds will give them a one-way ticket. But if you do the work, you'll have seven years of labor."
Zubrin, who has worked with conservative think tanks but said he does not belong politically, also admitted that colonization could parallel exploitation. "Someone said,'But is there no exploitation?' That's what people always do to each other."
To be clear, the story of American colonialism also included the chattle slavery and the cruelty and extinction of many indigenous peoples.
But Damien Williams, a teacher and doctoral student at Virginia Tech who studies the intersections of advanced technology, ethics, and society, warns that the story of us talking about America and exploring the universe can be out of context.
Musk's use of the word "colonization" refers to a long history in which Americans and other Western countries enrich themselves by exploiting and enslaving others. And it's not just microbial lifeforms that can exist on Mars that should be of interest when colonizing other planets. Without clearly defined goals and consensus, SpaceX's colony could create a "area of contention," Williams said.

The angel numbers assure you that when you are positive about challenges, the results you shall receive will be positive and constant at all times.
786 Numerology
Change is inevitable, and this is a strong source from angel number 786. We come into circumstances in our life that leave us wondering what our future will be like. Angel number 786 sends you a message telling you that change is a must, whether it be good or bad. Our state of mind is what matters most when the change comes.
Try as much as possible always to stay positive. Always think positively and have a heart that is willing and ready for anything. This, in a few words, is called living life as it comes. We do not know our tomorrow as much as we were certain of yesterday. But when change comes today, be it positive or negative, have a constant smile on your face always.

Hvarska biskupija (lat. Dioecesis Pharensis), poznata i kao Hvarsko-bračko-viška biskupija (lat. Dioecesis Pharensis, Brazensis et Lissensis), rimokatolička biskupija u sastavu splitske metropolije, osnovana u 12. stoljeću.

Ime biskupije
U prošlosti se biskupija najčešće bilježila kao Hvarska ili Otočka. Kroz 19. st. koristi se naziv Hvarsko-bračka biskupija. Od vremena biskupa Fulgencija Careva službeno ime biskupije je Hvarsko-bračko-viška biskupija, ali se češće koristi njezin skraćeni naziv Hvarska biskupija. Službeni dokumenti Svete Stolice u XX. stoljeću koriste ime Hvarska biskupija - apostolsko pismo Slavorum gentem (1901.), apostolska konstitucija Qui vicariam (1969.), pismo kojim se kardinal Kuharić imenuje posebnim izaslanikom za 850. godišnjicu biskupije (1997.), kao i u službenim priopćenjima povodom imenovanja novih biskupâ.

Teritorij Hvarske biskupije
Hvarska biskupija obuhvaća srednjodalmatinske otoke Hvar, Brač i Vis te niz manjih otočića uključujući Paklene otoke, Šćedro, Biševo i Palagružu. Podređena je Splitsko-makarskoj metropoliji.

Povijest biskupije
Hvarska biskupija Episcopia pharensis osnovana je 1147., iako neki povjesničari drže da je to bila 1145., 1150. ili 1154. godina. Prvi biskup bio je Zadranin Martin I. Manzavini. Do 14. st. Hvarska je biskupija obuhvaćala, osim današnja tri otoka, još i Korčulu, Mljet te Makarsko primorje.

Prvo sjedište Hvarske biskupije bio je ondašnji Civitas Vetus Stari Grad, a 1278. g. premješteno je u grad Hvar. Neki povjesničari o prvom sjedištu biskupije još uvijek vode polemiku tvrdeći da je sjedište od početka bilo u gradu Hvaru koji se kao naselje Civitas Nova prvi put spominje tek u 13. stoljeću.

Hvarska biskupija imala je dosad 55 biskupa, od kojih su dva bila kardinali, a više njih naslovni nadbiskupi. U posljednje vrijeme posebno se istaknuo biskup Mihovil Pušić, jedan od predvodnika liturgijskog pokreta u Hrvatskoj. Današnji biskup je Ranko Vidović.

Charles Heerey memorial Juniorate, Urualla, is a formative Secondary school belonging to the congregation of the sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Mother of Christ. It is a special Secondary School where young girls are trained to be good Christians as well as respond to religious vocation as Reverend Sisters. The congregation was founded by late Archbishop Charles Heerey in 1937. It was his ardent desire that the congregation establish a centre for the physical, moral, social, academic and spiritual growth of young girls. This gave birth to the establishment of the Charles Heerey memorial Juniorate in January, 1971.

\subsection*{Experimental arrangement for diffusion of speckles}
We used \ensuremath{^{87}\text{Rb}}  vapor with \SI{10}{\torr} buffer gas of $\text{N}_2$, heated to \SI{65}{\celsius} and placed in a \SI{7.5}{\mbox{ cm}} long cell. The cell is held inside a three layered shield to isolate it from external magnetic field, and a weak \SI{50}{\milli\gauss} longitudinal magnetic field assures that the spectator ground states are far from the Raman resonance.

An amplified \SI{795}{\nm} diode laser with (one photon) linewidth of \SI{1}{\mega\hertz} is split into three beams. As mentioned in the manuscript, two of these beams, denoted as control beams, overlap spatially in the area of the vapor cell, but are separated by a slight angle of $\theta\approx\SI{10}{\milli\radian}$. The third beam, denoted as the probe, is modulated at $\sim\SI{6.8}{\giga\hertz}$, and illuminated onto a spatial light modulator (SLM) which controls its transverse complex profile. The two-photon detuning $\Delta_{\text{2p}}$ is scanned by varying the modulation frequency of the probe by $\pm\SI{15}{\kilo\hertz}$ at most. The probe is oriented such that it propagates along one of the control beams inside the vapor cell. The purpose of the three beams is to generate a fourth signal beam along the path of the second control. The diameters of all three beams is $\gtrsim\SI{8}{\milli\meter}$. After the cell, the generated signal is spatially separated from the first control and from the probe. In order to detect the signal beam, the second probe is filtered with etalons, and the signal is imaged onto a CCD camera.

\subsection*{Experimental arrangement for diffraction of speckles}
The experimental arrangement used to characterize speckle dynamics under diffraction is rather simple. As shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:diffraction_exparrangement}, it is comprised of HeNe single mode laser that illuminates a diffuser (Newport \SI{5}{\degree} light shaping diffuser), and then collimated by a lens of focal distance $f=\SI{20}{\mbox{ cm}}$. The resulted speckle pattern is truncated by an apodized neutral density filter, and then imaged onto a CCD camera, which can shift axially using a computerized translation stage. In our experiments, the camera was moved axially in steps of $\SI{0.5}{\mm}$.

    \caption{Experimental arrangement for diffraction of speckles.}
    \label{fig:diffraction_exparrangement}
\end{figure}

\subsection*{Independent measurement of the diffusion constant \textit{D}}
The diffusion constant was measured independently using a storage and retrieval experiment~\cite{vudyasetu2008storage, firstenberg2010self, smartsev2017continuous}, where a broad pump and a narrow Gaussian profiled probe are used to store a narrow Gaussian onto the \ensuremath{^{87}\text{Rb}}  vapor. The beams are then turned off for duration $\tau$, after which the second pump is turned on, and the signal is retrieved.
Figure~\ref{fig:storage}(a) presents intensity distribution of the detected signal, for various delay times. As evident, the size of the input beam grows with delay. Figure~\ref{fig:storage}(b) shows the radial mean of the beam width squared, as a function of delay. From the slope of this curve we can extract the diffusion constant, which was found to be $D=\SI[separate-uncertainty = true, multi-part-units=single]{9.7(5)}{cm\squared\per\second}$. This result agrees with the calculated values~\cite{ma2009modification, ishikawa2000diffusion}.

\begin{figure}

    \includegraphics{Dstorage_supp.eps}
    \caption{Independent measurement of the diffusion coefficient.

(b) Radial mean of the detected beam's width squared, as a function of delay time.}

\subsection*{Diffusion and induced diffraction of spatial coherence}
For convenience, we denote the $\ket{\pm}$ states in the rotating frame, $\ket{\pm}=\left(\ket{3}\pm\ket{2}\right)/\sqrt{2}$, and the corresponding normal modes $E_+$ and $E_-$. Accordingly, we express the normal modes immediately at the exit of the \ensuremath{^{87}\text{Rb}}  medium as $E_\pm^{out}=g_\pm E_\pm^{in}$, where $g_-=e^{-S}$ describes regular (one-photon) absorption and $g_+ = e^{-S\left(1-f\right)}$ describes electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT); $S$ and $f$ being the Lorentzians associated with the one and two photon resonances,
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:define_SandF}
        S = d\frac{\gamma_{\text{1p}}}{\gamma_{\text{1p}}-i\Delta_{\text{1p}}},\qquad
        f = \eta_{act}\frac{\Gamma}{\gamma_{\text{2p}}+\Gamma-i\Delta_{\text{2p}}}.
\end{equation}
Here, $d$ is half the resonant optical depth for the probe, $\gamma_{\text{1p}}$ and $\gamma_{\text{2p}}$ are the one and two photon decoherence rates, $\Delta_{\text{1p}}$ and $\Delta_{\text{2p}}$ are the one and two photon frequency detunings, and $\Gamma$ denotes the power broadening $\Gamma=\Omega^2/\left(\gamma_{\text{1p}}-i\Delta_{\text{1p}}\right)$, $\Omega$ being the Rabi frequency of the control beams. The prefactor $0\leq\eta_{act}\leq1$ is the fraction of atoms in the lower hyperfine manifold that populated the $m=0$ (lower $\ket{1}$) state.

For a uniform incoming probe field $E_\text{in}$, the generated signal in the limit of weak EIT $|Sf|\ll 1$ is given by
\begin{equation}
     \frac{E_s}{E_\text{in}} = \frac{1}{2}\left(g_+ - g_-\right)\approx{\frac{1}{2}Sfe^{-S}},
    \label{eq:generated1}
\end{equation}
where $g_+$ and $g_-$ are the transmission amplitudes with and without EIT, respectively, and $S$ and $f$ are the complex Lorentzians associated with the one and two-photon detunings (Eq. 2). The generated signal has a group delay of
\begin{equation}
        \tau=\frac{\partial}{\partial\Delta_{\text{2p}}}\left[\log\left(\frac{g_+-g_-}{2}\right)\right] =  \frac{\gamma_{\text{2p}}+\Gamma-i\Delta_{\text{2p}}}{\left(\gamma_{\text{2p}}+\Gamma\right)^2+\left(\Delta_{\text{2p}}\right)^2}.
    \label{eq:diffusion_time1}
\end{equation}
Eq.~\ref{eq:diffusion_time1} indicates that $\tau$ has both real and imaginary components, $\tau = \tau_\text{du}+i\tau_\text{dr}$. The real term $\tau_\text{du}$ corresponds to real diffusion, and the imaginary term $\tau_\text{dr}$ corresponds to motional-induced diffraction. In the experiment, we vary the diffusion time $\tau$ by changing the two photon detuning $\Delta_{\text{2p}}$. Notice that for a given $\gamma_{\text{2p}}+\Gamma = const$, the maximal diffusion delay time $\text{Re}\left[\tau\right]$ is obtained for $\Delta_{\text{2p}}=0$. Accordingly, we denote the maximal diffusion time $\tau_\infty\equiv1/(\gamma_{\text{2p}}+\Gamma)$, resulting in
\begin{equation}
        \frac{\tau}{\tau_\infty}= \frac{1-i\Delta_{\text{2p}}\tau_\infty}{1+\left(\Delta_{\text{2p}}\tau_\infty\right)^2}.
    \label{eq:diffusion_time2}
\end{equation}

To estimate the effect of the induced diffraction, we consider the evolution of a Gaussian beam of initial waist $w_0$. In analogy to the Rayleigh range in optics, we define a Rayleigh duration $\tau_R$ after which the the beam expands by a factor of $\sqrt{2}$ due to diffusion. The width of the beam after some diffusion time $\tau$ is simply
\begin{equation}
    w(\tau)^2=w_0^2+4D\tau,
\end{equation}
and therefore $\tau_R=\frac{w_0^2}{4D}$. The induced diffraction becomes significant if the duration $\tau_\text{dr}$ is large as compared to the effect of diffusion,
\begin{equation}
    |\tau_\text{dr}|>\tau_\text{R}+\tau_\text{du}.
\end{equation}

Plugging Eq.~(\ref{eq:diffusion_time2}) and solving for $\Delta_{\text{2p}}\tau_\infty$, we find the minimal two-photon detuning needed to obtain substantial induced diffraction. Using the parameters used in our experiment, considerable induced diffraction is expected for $140>|\tau_\infty\Delta_{\text{2p}}|>3.3$. Therefore, the effect of induced diffraction can be safely neglected in the regime studied in the manuscript ($3>\tau_\infty\Delta_{\text{2p}}>0$). We have verified the above analysis using a numerical simulation, comparing diffusion of a speckle field with and without induced diffraction, $\tau=\tau_\text{du}+i\tau_\text{dr}$ and $\tau=\tau_\text{du}$, respectively.

(a) Calculated intensity distribution as a function of two photon detuning (equivalent to diffusion time), without  the term of induced diffraction. (b) Calculated intensity distribution as a function of two photon detuning (equivalent to diffusion time), considering also the term of induced diffraction. The parameters taken for the simulation are similar to those in experiment.}

\subsection*{Evolution of the spatial coherence - derivation}

\subsubsection*{I. Diffraction}
We begin with diffraction of partial spatial coherence, where, as in the manuscript, the mutual intensity is define as~\cite{goodman2015statistical, mandel1995optical}
\begin{equation}
    G^{(1)}\left(\mathbf{r}_1, \mathbf{r}_2; z\right) = \langle E^*\left(\mathbf{r}_1; z\right)E\left(\mathbf{r}_2; z\right)\rangle.
    \label{eq:Gdefinition}
\end{equation}
It is convenient to shift to Fourier space to describe the evolution of the mutual intensity $G^{(1)}$, where, using the Fresnel Fourier space propagator $H_E^\text{dr}=e^{-i\lambda z q^2/4\pi}$~\cite{goodman2008introduction}, we obtain
\begin{equation}
    \Tilde{G}^{(1)}\left(\mathbf{q}_1, \mathbf{q}_2; z\right) = \Tilde{G}_0^{(1)}\left(\mathbf{q}_1, \mathbf{q}_2\right) e^{-i\lambda z\left(q_2^2-q_1^2\right)/4\pi},
    \label{eq:GFourier_diffraction}
\end{equation}
where, $\Tilde{G}_0^{(1)}\left(\mathbf{q}_1, \mathbf{q}_2\right)=\langle \Tilde{E}^*\left(\mathbf{q}_1; z=0\right)\Tilde{E}\left(\mathbf{q}_2; z=0\right)\rangle$ is the Fourier transform of the mutual intensity $G^{(1)}$ at the plane of the source $z=0$.

Changing variables to $\Delta\mathbf{q}$ and $\bar{\mathbf{q}}$, Eq.~\ref{eq:GFourier_diffraction} yields
\begin{equation}
    \Tilde{G}^{(1)}\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}, \Delta\mathbf{q}; z\right) = \Tilde{G}_0^{(1)}\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}, \Delta\mathbf{q}\right) e^{-i\lambda z\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}\cdot\Delta\mathbf{q}\right)/2\pi}.
    \label{G_deltaRep_diffraction}
\end{equation}
We therefore conclude the diffraction of the mutual intensity can be described by the Fourier space propagator $H_G^\text{dr}=e^{-i\lambda z\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}\cdot\Delta\mathbf{q}\right)/2\pi}$, which mixes between the coordinate axes $\bar{\mathbf{q}}$ and $\Delta\mathbf{q}$.

\subsubsection*{II. Diffusion}
Similarly, using the diffusion propagator $H_G^\text{du}=e^{-D\tau q^2}$, the mutual intensity in Fourier space yields
\begin{equation}
    \Tilde{G}^{(1)}\left(\mathbf{q}_1, \mathbf{q}_2; \tau\right) = \Tilde{G}_0^{(1)}\left(\mathbf{q}_1, \mathbf{q}_2\right) e^{-D\tau\left(q_1^2+q_2^2\right)}.
    \label{eq:GFourier_diffusion1}
\end{equation}
Equivalently, changing variables to $\bar{\mathbf{q}}$ and $\Delta\mathbf{q}$, Eq.~\ref{eq:GFourier_diffusion1} can be expressed as
\begin{equation}
    \Tilde{G}^{(1)}\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}, \Delta\mathbf{q}; \tau\right) = \Tilde{G}_0^{(1)}\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}, \Delta\mathbf{q}\right) e^{-D\tau\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}^2+\Delta\mathbf{q}^2\right)}.
    \label{eq:GFourier_diffusion2}
\end{equation}
Thus, the diffusion propagator of the mutual intensity is $H_G^\text{du}=e^{-D\tau\left(\bar{\mathbf{q}}^2+\Delta\mathbf{q}^2\right)}$. The different diffusion and diffraction propagators are summarized in table I in the manuscript.

\subsection*{Diffusion invariant speckles}
Over the past three decades, ever since the pioneering work of Durnin~\cite{durnin1987exact, durnin1987diffraction}, Bessel beams have attracted much attention, due to their unique propagation properties, where they can maintain their transverse profile for long propagation distances~\cite{mcgloin2005bessel}. Recently, Bessel beams were also shown to be immune to diffusion[ref!]. Specifically, except for global dissipation in energy, a Bessel beam that undergoes diffusion maintains its transverse profile for long temporal duration.

This diffusion invarience of Bessel beams can be intuitively understood by considering their Fourier component representation. Bessel beams can be decomposed to a superposition of plane waves of equal energy uniformly distributed on a cone. Since the diffusion propagator $H_E^\text{du}$ depends only on the squared norm of the wavevector, all plane waves undergo the exact same dissipation. Since Bessel beams are diffusion invariant, any random superposition of Bessel beams is diffusion invariant as well. It is therefore possible to generate speckle field which would undergo minimal diffusion, as demonstrated in Fig. 2(c) of the manuscript.

In the following, we present additional experimental results for diffusion invariant speckle, which complement the data presented in the manuscript~\cite{turunen1991propagation, uno1995speckle}. Figures~\ref{fig:diffusion_invariant_supp}(a-b) show the detected intensity distribution of the generated signal after short and long diffusion time. As evident, the intensity distribution does not vary with diffusion time. This is more clearly evident in Fig.~\ref{fig:diffusion_invariant_supp}(c) which presents a vertical crossection of the speckle pattern, as a function of diffusion time. Since the field itself is invariant to diffusion, it is only expected that the statistical properties of the speckle field should be invariant as well. Indeed, Fig.~\ref{fig:diffusion_invariant_supp}(d) shows that the calculated speckle auto-correlation maintains its profile and does not vary with diffusion time.

Q: VB.NET 2010 DataGridView Handling Keypress via EditingControlShowing Event I am working with a DataGridView for the first time and while I have MANY questions, this latest issue is vexing me.
Summary of issue:
I have a DataGridView (dgv) which I have a set of columns defined.  Some readonly some editable.
For the editable columns I need four things to occur.
1) Allow Numeric entry
2) Allow maximum of 2 digits
3) Zero Pad any entries <2 digits
4) My ISSUE:
If the user types in a two digit number, I want to detect that and TAB to the next column.   I cannot get this to work.
Sample code (with some known working items left out):
Private Sub dgvDiary_EditingControlShowing(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs) Handles dgvDiary.EditingControlShowing
    Dim txtEdit As TextBox = e.Control
    txtEdit.MaxLength = 2

    'remove any existing handler
    RemoveHandler txtEdit.KeyPress, AddressOf txtdgvDiaryEdit_Keypress
    AddHandler txtEdit.KeyPress, AddressOf txtdgvDiaryEdit_Keypress
End Sub

Private Sub txtdgvDiaryEdit_Keypress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs)
    'Test for numeric value or backspace
    If IsNumeric(e.KeyChar.ToString()) _
    Or e.KeyChar = ChrW(Keys.Back) Then
        e.Handled = False 'if numeric
    Else
        e.Handled = True  'if non numeric
    End If

    'If user typed in 2 characters, move on!
    'Don't work!
    If Strings.Len(Me.dgvDiary.Rows(Me.dgvDiary.CurrentRow.Index).Cells(Me.dgvDiary.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex).Value) = 2 Then
        SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
    End If
End Sub

Basically during this event I'm not able to see what the value of the cell "will be" when entered.
I tried adding a ".RefreshEdit" and a ".Commit" but they didn't work.
Any way to test the code within this event OR is there an event that would fire IMMEDIATELY afterward that I can use?

A: You are looking in the wrong place.  You need to examine the text in the TextBox, not the grid, to see how many characters are currently being typed.  Try using the TextChanged event for that:
Private Sub txtdgvDiaryEdit_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
  If DirectCast(sender, TextBox).Text.Length = 2 Then
    SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
  End If
End Sub

Like your other code, add the handlers:
'remove any existing handler
RemoveHandler txtEdit.TextChanged, AddressOf txtdgvDiaryEdit_TextChanged
AddHandler txtEdit.TextChanged, AddressOf txtdgvDiaryEdit_TextChanged
RemoveHandler txtEdit.KeyPress, AddressOf txtdgvDiaryEdit_KeyPress
AddHandler txtEdit.KeyPress, AddressOf txtdgvDiaryEdit_KeyPress

Alternatively, you can check to see if the TextBox only has one character, and if the KeyPress is passing in another number, send your Tab key then.  You would remove the TextChanged event code in this case:
Private Sub txtdgvDiaryEdit_KeyPress(sender As Object, e As KeyPressEventArgs)
  'Test for numeric value or backspace
  If IsNumeric(e.KeyChar.ToString()) _
  Or e.KeyChar = ChrW(Keys.Back) Then
    e.Handled = False 'if numeric
  Else
    e.Handled = True  'if non numeric
  End If

  If DirectCast(sender, TextBox).Text.Length = 1 AndAlso Char.IsNumber(e.KeyChar) Then
    SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
  End If
End Sub

Does it ever feel like no matter what you try you just can't seem to improve your email click-through rate?
You write great subject lines, the design is eye-catching, and the copy is well written. Yet for some reason your click-through rate is still lower than you'd like it to be.
The answer to your worries could lie in psychology.
Psychology and marketing strategy have gone hand in hand for years. Think about it: the better you understand how your audience thinks, the more effective your campaigns will be. It just makes sense.
We've gathered three ways to improve your email click-through rate that are backed in psychological theory and studies.
When you use an information gap to invoke the reader's sense of curiosity, you're more likely to increase your click through rate – simply because the reader wants that missing piece of information. The curiosity needs to be satisfied.
The idea of a hair clip saving someone's life in an emergency isn't something most people have heard before, so their curiosity as to how it works is invoked.
A study by Psychologist George Lowenstein looked into the human tendency to be curious and found a strong, innate need to close an information gap.
In the same vein, the Zeigarnik Effect shows that when information gaps exist without closure, it causes a sense of distress and suspense—and people will pursue information as a way to eliminate those feelings of unrest. Ever not being able to remember a trivial fact and just had to look it up on the web to find out the answer? That's the Zeigarnik Effect in action.
If you want to improve your email click-through rate, structure the subject line and body copy to invoke the reader's curiosity and make them feel like they're missing out on something valuable or interesting if they don't click through.
It's a simple truth that people are prone to accept recommendations from trusted resources (friends, family, peers, experts) as a stamp of approval. If we are referred to a certain business by a trusted source, it takes the legwork out of vetting a product or professional.
So, calling on the psychology of social proof (i.e. testimonials) in your email marketing campaigns is a great way to eliminate uncertainty and add ethos to your call to action.
Take this example from Franklin Rd, who feature customer reviews of different music tracks to encourage readers to click-through and listen.
Dr. Robert Cialdini's teachings demonstrate that social proof is a powerful tool when it comes to persuasion. When soliciting charitable donations door-to-door, researchers found that people were much more likely to make a donation when shown a list of neighbors who had already contributed.
Message 1: Informed the customer that they could be saving $54/month on their utility bill.
Message 2: Told customers that they could prevent the release of 262 pounds of greenhouse gasses every month.
Message 3: Encouraged customers that saving energy was a socially responsible thing to do.
Message 4: Let customers know that 77 percent of their neighbors were already actively using fans to save energy.
The study found that Message 4, the one that invoked the positive social proof, was the most effective. It was even more effective in getting people to take action than the messages about saving money or protecting the environment.
If you want to increase email click-throughs in your email marketing campaigns, include forms of social proof such as customer testimonials to show that other people have taken similar actions and reassure readers the offer you are making is worthy of their time.
Even if we don't always want to admit it, the truth is: we're all a little self-centered. We like things that have a direct benefit to us.
How can you apply that fact to increase your email click through rate? Try changing a word or two so that your message speaks to the ego; more clicks and conversions should follow.
Sigmund Freud would tell you that the Id, Ego, and Superego all cater to self-centered desires. Therefore, people are more likely to act (and in this case, click) on something that invokes a self-centered benefit.
If you want to increase your email click-through rate, try A/B testing your button and link copy. A simple change from something like 'Create a free account' to 'Create my free account' could make a big difference.
At the end of the day, there's one fact is the same for every audience—we're all human. And as the field of psychology continues to grapple with understanding our complex minds, they are generating useful information that can help you better understand what motivates your email subscribers.
So invoke curiosity, use social proof & cater to selfish desires in your next email campaign, and you just might find you get that boost in your email click-through rate you've been striving for.

I stumbled upon this cute video today and I have to admit it brought tears to my eyes. For a long time I've been… judgmental toward gay/lesbian people not because I'm a religious person (I'm not) but because I believe in what happens-in-the-bedroom-stays there. I'm a very private person when it comes to relationships and old fashioned. What can I say? I'm not perfect.
Today I have to admit I learned a great lesson, thanks to this wonderful gay couple. And I think I owe them and their community a great deal of apologies for not accepting them for who they are: people who are entitled to find love and be loved. People who go to Home Depot to buy lumber. People who dance. People who sing along. People who surround themselves with friends and family and count on their support and love. People who go down on one knee to propose. You know, people like us.
I'll probably remember this day for a long time. It's the day I opened my eyes to see the world more colorful, more loving and above everything–more tolerant.
Oh wow, so sweet! Brought me to tears too! Love how it looks like his parents joined in there. love it! Thanks!
Totally! Regardless of color, gender, religion LOVE is for everyone!!!
Thank you for sharing your new views. Love is love and should have no boundaries on who is the object of that love.


Less than half (48%) of these investors are betting on new start-up businesses, a drop from 59% a year ago. And for years prior the figure was around 75%. Where are the �angels� investing? In later-stage companies, as their business plans appear better prepared and fleshed out.
�Big� is in, in the venture capital world these days. Industry data shows they�re putting bigger chunks of cash into larger, more-established companies and easing up on earlier-stage investments.
The VCs are opting for bigger investments in more mature companies because these firms might go public or be purchased more quickly than newer firms. The goal of any venture-capital investment is an �exit,� usually in the form of an IPO or an acquisition.


Fried Egg Bologna Sandwich. It's a typical Southern sandwich. Also called a poor man's steak sandwich. It's very easy to make, and delicious.
For this sandwich I use the cast iron skillet. Turn the stove on and put a small amount of grease in the skillet. Add the bologna and brown on one side. You will see a bubble in the middle cut that with a knife. Now add the egg to the skillet, when both are done turn the bologna and the egg over, and fry the bologna and egg. Spread the mayo on the bread. Add the fried bologna, then the cheese and last the fried egg. Top off with the other slice of toasted bread with mayo. And enjoy this simple sandwich from the South.


In the port city Poti at the Black Sea coast of Georgia, the service and food industry are the most important sectors of the economy. Here, a successful Georgian refrigeration company constructed a cold storage facility in 2012.
To further boost the own performance, the company planned a new deep freeze facility and addressed Energocredit for a loan.
Following the Energocredit's suggestions, the project comprised construction of two highly efficiency deep freeze cells (970 m2), installation of energy saving panels with a cam-lock panel system, and energy efficient refrigerating equipment with an automatic control system.
The $394,000 investment allowed to decrease the company's existing electricity consumption by 85 per cent, leading to $116,000 cost savings each year. The investment will repay itself out of energy savings in just four years, turning the future cash-flows into company's income for the years to come.
Industries requiring cooling or heating processes consume large volumes of energy and, hence, have high potential for energy savings. This project is an example, which should be be spread among similar businesses, in order to help them increase their competitiveness on the more and more globalized market.

Definition and Examples of Dynamic Verbs
Natasha Sioss / Getty Images
In English grammar, a dynamic verb is a verb used primarily to indicate an action, process, or sensation as opposed to a state. Also called an action verb or an event verb. Also known as a non-stative verb or action verb. Contrast with stative verb.
There are three major types of dynamic verbs: 1) accomplishment verbs (expressing action that has a logical endpoint), 2) achievement verbs (expressing action that occurs instantaneously), and 3) activity verbs (expressing action that can go on for an indefinite period of time).
"They throw the ball, I hit it.They hit the ball, I catch it."
(Hall of Fame baseball player Willie Mays)
"He had learned to walk and run and fight in the twisting alleys and dirty gutters of Rome."
(Howard Fast, Spartacus. Blue Heron Press, 1951)
"I ate a banana and drank a glass of nonfat chocolate milk for breakfast. After that, I washed the breakfast dishes with liquid soap and lemon juice. I threw them in the dish drainer so they could dry naturally and left the house."
(Lori Aurelia Williams, Broken China. Simon & Schuster, 2006)
"They roared and clapped, sang and shouted as I performed, and with each moment my heart filled fuller."
(Emmanuel Jal, War Child: A Child Soldier's Story. St. Martin's Griffin, 2010)
"America is a large, friendly dog in a very small room. Every time it wags its tail, it knocks over a chair."
(Arnold Toynbee, BBC news summary, July 14, 1954)
"[I]n summer everything fills. The day itself widens and stretches almost around the clock; these are very high latitudes, higher than Labrador's. You want to run all night. Summer people move into the houses that had stood empty, unseen, and unnoticed all winter. The gulls scream all day and smash cockles; by August they are bringing the kids."
(Annie Dillard, "Mirages," 1982)
"Brandt ran back to the deepest corner of the outfield grass, the ball descended beyond his reach and struck in the crotch where the bullpen met the wall, bounced chunkily, and vanished."
(John Updike, "Hub Fans Bid Kid Adieu," 1960)
"Verbs act. Verbs move. Verbs do. Verbs strike, soothe, grin, cry, exasperate, decline, fly, hurt, and heal. Verbs make writing go, and they matter more to our language than any other part of speech."
(Donald Hall and Sven Birkerts, Writing Well, 9th ed. Longman, 1997)
What's the Difference Between a Dynamic Verb and a Stative Verb?
A dynamic verb (such as run, ride, grow, throw) is primarily used to indicate an action, process, or sensation. In contrast, a stative verb (such as be, have, seem, know) is primarily used to describe a state or situation. (Because the boundary between dynamic and stative verbs can be fuzzy, it's generally more useful to talk of dynamic and stative meaning and usage.)
Three Classes of Dynamic Verbs
"If a clause can be used to answer the question What happened?, it contains a non-stative (dynamic) verb. If a clause cannot be so used, it contains a stative verb. . . .
"It is now accepted practice to divide dynamic verbs into three classes. . . . Activity, accomplishment and achievement verbs all denote events. Activities denote events with no built-in boundary and stretching out over time. Achievements denote events conceived of as occupying no time at all. Accomplishments denote events with an activity phase and a closure phase; they can be spread out over time, but there is a built-in boundary."

Five intriguing races for the new season
By Mike HembreeJan 6, 2023, 2:50 PM EST
Photo by David Jensen/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images
Despite a schedule that is very similar to last year's, the NASCAR Cup Series will race both toward a new future and an interesting past in 2023.
Last season, the most intriguing race on the schedule was the opener — the Clash at the Coliseum. No one knew what to expect on the purpose-built track inside Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, and the unknown — plus the debut of the Next Gen car — made LA a hot topic for weeks leading to the race.
The Clash was a major success.
This year, the two most alluring races are at new (the streets of Chicago) and old (North Wilkesboro Speedway) locations.
Here's a look at five intriguing races as the countdown to the new season continues:
Streets of Chicago — July 2
You want different? This is different.
NASCAR will journey into entirely new territory on the Independence Day weekend, molding a race course from the streets of downtown Chicago.
Numerous series have raced on street courses, of course, but it's a new animal for NASCAR and its big stock cars. Some drivers have voiced concern about passing zones on what necessarily will be a tight course, and there also have been questions about accidents in or near turns blocking the course and creating nightmare logjams.
Part of the intrigue.
Much like last year's Clash at the Coliseum, the Chicago race has its share of doubters. LA resulted in a big hit for NASCAR. A similar result in Chicago could increase the likelihood that NASCAR will consider other major-city visits.
North Wilkesboro Speedway — May 21
The revival of one of the Cup Series' original race tracks, in the shadow of the Brushy Mountains in North Carolina, has been one of the sport's major stories over the past year.
North Wilkesboro's renovations and rebuilding will be on display May 21 as NASCAR holds its annual All-Star Race at the .625-mile track. Cup cars last raced at North Wilkesboro in 1996.
Although touches of the old track, which sat in disrepair for years, remain as nods to its past, fans attending the May race will see a newly configured infield, refurbished suites and a state-of-the-art lighting system.
The All-Star Race is being moved from Texas Motor Speedway, where it hasn't been quite the spectacle many fans associate with the event. North Wilkesboro will give it a new/old look.
Daytona International Speedway — Feb. 19
The Daytona 500 — a race that always is intriguing.
Even before NASCAR decided to make its biggest race the season opener for points competition, the 500 was generally the sport's most anticipated event. When NASCAR founder Bill France Sr. opened the monster track in 1959, stock car racers were suddenly thrown into a wild new world of very high speeds and pack-like racing previously unknown to drivers used to short dirt tracks.
The sport has changed and evolved in many ways across the decades since DIS opened, but the track remains NASCAR's cathedral, a place where the unexpected is expected and great careers are begun.
In part because of the stature of the track and the race, and in part because of the quiet of the off-season, February race dates in coastal Florida always will be red-letter days on the racing calendar.
Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course — Aug. 13
This year's Indy road-course race will be interesting if for no other reason than to see if it can be completed without many laps of overtime.
In last year's race, the first turn, in which drivers left the oval-course front straight to dip onto the infield road course, became calamity corner. On green-flag restarts, there was little give and take as the field sailed into the narrow turn, resulting in crashes and confusion and overtime.
On what turned out to be the final restart, Ross Chastain bypassed the first-turn chaos and continued on the front straight to rejoin the field along an access road, thus taking the lead from Tyler Reddick. NASCAR soon declared this move a no-no, returning Reddick to the lead.
Reddick finally won the race, 17% of which was run under caution.
It's possible that NASCAR will attempt to avoid some of the first-turn chaos by adjusting the course this year.
Darlington Raceway — Sept. 3
After years of being a movable toy in NASCAR's evolving scheduling, Darlington's Southern 500 appears to have found a permanent home at its original spot — on or near Labor Day weekend.
The fact that NASCAR's oddest and toughest track now also hosts the first round of the Cup playoffs adds to the intrigue Darlington brings to the table. It's 500 miles of hard road with advancement into the next round of the playoffs the prize awaiting any driver in the playoff field who finishes first.
On a normal day, Darlington is rough. On a late-summer day/night with temperatures soaring into the 90s and South Carolina humidity cloaking the track, it can be a brutal test.


Great British Bake Off Host Sandi Toksvig has responded to accusations that fan favourite Rahul 'cheated' in the competition.
Last week, viewers expressed their anger when Manon was eliminated from the competition. Many were upset for the fact that, when hosts Sandi and Noel called time on the challange, Rahul allegedly continued to decorate his cake.
Despite this Rahul went on to the semi-final and now, the final.
Now, Sandi has spoken out about the accusations.
Speaking to Digital Spy, she said "What you see is what you get with Rahul. He's a really charming man with very little self-confidence and an astonishing talent."
Sandi said The others all have talent, Briony is talented, Ruby is talented, Kim-Joy is talented but at the end of the day, it's that bake on that day. I'm sorry if there is a backlash. 'Everybody is doing their best. These are not telly people. These are people who have decided to put themselves forward to do something that they are passionate about. So, I would hate for there to be a backlash against anybody."
The Great British Bake Off Final airs at 8pm on Tuesday.


West Hempstead Middle School hosted an orientation for sixth-graders on Aug. 29 to familiarize the students with their new school.
The annual program commenced with introductions and welcoming remarks from Superintendent of Schools Patricia Sullivan-Kriss, middle school Principal Dina Reilly and Assistant Principal Joseph Pumo.
In her welcoming address, Sullivan-Kriss recognized the sixth-graders' concerns of entering a new school and offered sage advice as they continue their academic journey in the district.
During the presentation, the sixth-graders received their schedules and were given an overview of middle school expectations and challenges, as well as extracurricular opportunities that lie ahead.
The day concluded with a tour of the school building led by members of the National Junior Honor Society, an opportunity for the incoming students to practice their locker combinations, and a question/answer session with the school's upperclassmen.

Seemingly everyone has a story that sheds more light on the criminal levels of dysfunction within the Cleveland Browns organization.
Here's one from New Orleans Saints Pro Bowl defensive end Cameron Jordan, who shared a fun little draft anecdote from 'way back in 2011.
Suffice it to say, this tale doesn't reflect well on the Browns.
That was Cam talking with Dan Patrick, whos pretty much incredulous after stumbling upon this gem.
Of course, the context of that discussion involved Cameron Jordan being confused with former TE Jordan Cameron, but they're still two completely different people.
Imagine the amount of drooling and incoherent mumbling that must've taken place in the Browns' draft war room as that phone call to Jordan was being placed.
That's right gang, full frontal lobotomies for everyone.
Indeed, the call was placed on the second day of the draft, after Cam had already been selected by the Saints in the first round the day before.
While NFL franchises have certainly experienced more public draft blunders, this was still a delightfully Browns thing to do.
Please stayed tuned for more tales of woe from the era of peak Browns ineptitude.

The best pitches are typically done within five to seven minutes, according to Charlene Li, founder of digital strategies consulting firm Altimeter, and host of VatorNews' show Socialize This. As a former analyst at Forrester and a sought-after consultant in the social media space, Li gets pitched all the time by entrepreneurs seeking advice or coverage.
In this segment, Li offers up advice to entrepreneurs when they pitch to her.
The first piece of advice is to keep it short. Don't spend 10 minutes explaining social networking to Li. She practically wrote the book on it. I'm not kidding. She was a co-author of Groundswell, a book on social media. "You don't have to convince me that social media is a big deal," she said. The best pitches answer three things in under seven minutes, she said. Those are: 1) What's the problem? 2) How are you going to solve it? 3) How are you going to make money?
Li also cautions entrepreneurs to not work 10 hours a day. If it's more than 40 hours, and pushing 60 hours, she asks, "How can you sustain that?" The people with a good handle on their business are the ones who also have a good handle on their personal life. Also, if an entrepreneur is working that many hours, it's a sign that they're not focused on one problem. The biggest problem Li sees entrepreneurs having is that they have a tendency to want to boil ocean. With that type of problem to solve, it's no wonder they're working long hours.
As for integrating social media into their product or service, Li advises entrepreneurs to make sure they understand what type of relationship they want with their user or what type of relationship they want users to have with one another. Define the relationship and then apply the right technologies, she said. And, not all startups need a social component. While it's good to have one, it's better not to have one than have a social strategy/component that's just tacked on.

Bengaluru: Former finance minister Yashwant Sinha, who quit the BJP recently, on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party for its approach in the recently concluded assembly election in Karnataka and its desperate attempts to "buy" MLAs to form the government.
At a discussion on "Threat to Democracy-Constitution", the outspoken former BJP leader said that the BJP is of the firm belief that whatever the election result may be, they will form the government. "The mandate does not matter for the party anymore, but the ability to buy MLAs and MPs after the elections to form the government like in Meghalaya, Goa and Manipur," he alleged.
"The party tried to apply the same theory in Karnataka but failed miserably. But political developments in the state today are a rehearsal of what will happen after the Lok Sabha elections. If we don't wake up now, we are going to rue and regret the day that we remained sleeping and allowed democracy to slip out of our hands," he warned.
He claimed that the BJP at the Centre is 'systematically manipulating' all the four pillars of the Constitution and 'deliberately spreading fear' among people so as to make them afraid for questioning the working style of the government.
"The BJP is destroying democratic institutions and undermining the Constitution, which has caused great anxiety to me in the last four years. The party at the Centre not only systematically replaced facts with fiction but also uttered lies. It meticulously planned to destroy the values, conventions, practices and institutions of democracy," he said.

Bay Ridge natives, Ted Nugent and Michael Esposito teamed up with Gerard Piccairelli in hopes to provide Bay Ridge with an alternative late night place to dine. We opened the doors in 2001 serving our full menu till 3am. It was an immediate late night haute. As time passed, Cebu made its way into the normal dining community hours and opened its doors for brunch as well. We expanded our size in 2009, adding an additional 100 seats, a lounge area with a fireplace and a smaller more intimate bar.
