Book Review: Never Saw Me Coming by Vera Kurian
Lightning-fast and whip smart. A fresh take on the genre.
Never Saw Me Coming is Vera Kurian's debut novel, published September 7th, 2021, by Park Row Books. Kurian is a scientist first, novelist second. Per her bio, she's spent time on both US coasts but now lives in her hometown of DC, which mirrors the setting of her novel.
I was immediately drawn in by the premise of the book: eighteen-year-old Chloe Sevre earns a full scholarship to Adams college when she agrees to participate in a clinical study on psychopaths. It's new, it's interesting, and I love unreliable female narrators. Once first introductions were over, the story hits the ground running and drops a couple of bombs in the first 50 pages (my favorite) including, the fact that Chloe is on a revenge mission to kill a childhood 'friend', and if that's not shocking enough, one of the other students in the study is found murdered. After that, the pace continues full speed and we see Chloe teaming up with two other students—Andre and Charles, also participants in the psychopathy study—as they try to figure out the motive behind who is targeting them and why.
But can you really trust a psychopath?
For a debut, Never Saw Me Coming is long in length (389 pages) but since the chapters are relatively short it never slows in pace. I found myself racing through each new chapter as the POV alternated between Chloe (18 year-old hot girl next door), Charles (privileged, handsome, rich kid), and Andre (a student with a troubled past hiding a big secret). Each character is interesting, unique, and complex, bringing their own personal set of traits to the table. Kurian did an amazing job at displaying the nonchalant and calculative tendencies psychopaths are described to exhibit in textbooks to the page, specifically in chapter 47 where I found myself gliding through a particularly gruesome scene with ease, narrated by Chloe, in which I had to pause and go back, shocked at how cold and detached she was. The tone was executed perfectly and it sent shivers down my spine!
One of the things I love the most about this book is how fresh the story idea is. I have read and enjoyed numerous books featuring unreliable narrators for one reason or another, whether it's addiction, trauma, or straight-up deceit, but it's not often I read about a diagnosed psychopath who is not only unashamed but openly proud to admit it. And the fact that she's not the only one makes for a very suspenseful read with an even more interesting cast of characters. The only downside is that sometimes I found it a little hard to follow all of them, nevertheless it's an expertly plotted novel.
4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recommend this book to readers who enjoy psychological thrillers, dark academia with a wide cast of characters, lightning-fast pace, and unreliable narrators.
You should never trust a psychopath. But what if you had no choice?
It would be easy to underestimate Chloe Sevre… She's a freshman honor student, a legging-wearing hot girl next door, who also happens to be a psychopath. She spends her time on yogalates, frat parties and plotting to kill Will Bachman, a childhood friend who grievously wronged her.
Chloe is one of seven students at her DC-based college who are part of an unusual clinical study of psychopaths—students like herself who lack empathy and can't comprehend emotions like fear or guilt. The study, led by a renowned psychologist, requires them to wear smartwatches that track their moods and movements.
When one of the students in the study is found murdered in the psychology building, a dangerous game of cat and mouse begins, and Chloe goes from hunter to prey. As she races to identify the killer and put her own plan for revenge into action, she'll be forced to decide if she can trust any of her fellow psychopaths—and everybody knows you should never trust a psychopath.

Book Review: A Slow Fire Burning by Paula Hawkins
I can't remember the last time I read a book in under 48 hours.
I'm the kind of reader who, when enthralled with a book, do one of two things: speed read to the end, or savor it for months. Regarding this particular story, it was the former.
A Slow Fire Burning is Paula Hawkins' third book and was published August 31st, 2021, by Penguin. It's a standalone novel, and you don't have to have read her other books to enjoy it. The story takes you through the lives of three women, who seem disconnected at first, but as the story progresses, their backstories are intricately woven together throughout the plot, revealing a dark past that leads directly to murder. Who are these women? How do they know each other? And what underlying issues are they all dealing with?
This isn't simply a whodunnit. In fact, there is a little something for everyone. It deals with trauma and survivor's guilt, revenge, female relationships, and even features a book within a book. Shout out to my favorite character, Irene, who is the quintessential little old lady living next door who turns out to be the story's, Miss Marple. I loved how observant, empathetic, and forgiving she is, always trying to help others and do the right thing. She was also (in my opinion) the most underestimated character, holding all the hidden pieces of the puzzle until the very end. The writing is razor-sharp and expertly plotted.
I may have read this book fast but that doesn't necessarily mean it was fast-paced. In fact, the momentum of the story was steady and slow-burning (much like the title) until the big reveal. And when I finished the book, it felt like I'd read three stories in one, given the level of detail surrounding each character and how my feelings had changed toward them. I found it so enjoyable I couldn't put it down and there wasn't a moment when I found my mind wandering—something that happens on the regular for me, unfortunately. As a writer myself, it was definitely a book that made me sit up and take notes. I felt excited, inspired, and could have read it all over again!
5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recommend this book to readers who love depth of character, steady-paced plot, and edge-of-your-seat suspense.
The story takes us to Islington, north London, where a young man is found on a houseboat with his throat cut. Three women hold clues to the truth. Laura is the troubled one-night-stand last seen in the victim's home. Carla is his grief-stricken aunt, already mourning the recent death of yet another family member. And Miriam is the nosy neighbor clearly keeping secrets from the police. And they all have separate connections to the victim. Three women who are – for different reasons – simmering with resentment. Who are, whether they know it or not, burning to right the wrongs done to them. When it comes to revenge, even good people might be capable of terrible deeds. How far might any one of them go to find peace? How long can secrets smolder before they explode into flame?

Book Review: Survive the Night by Riley Sager
Riley Sager's fifth thriller—Survive the Night—is a must-read for anyone who loves nineties-era-nostalgia. From grungy music and classic horror movies to muscle cars and dingy roadside diners; this book brought the thrills of the big screen alive on the page for me. Charlie Jordan—college student and movie buff—accepts a ride from a stranger she meets at the ride board at school. After her best friend was brutally murdered, Charlie's desperate to leave college and get back to Ohio, leaving the mess of traumatic memories behind her. But not long into the journey, Charlie starts to suspect her driver, Josh, isn't who he says he is. Could she really be riding alongside "The Campus Killer"?
I'm a huge fan of anything nineties but particularly love the films created in that era. A few of my favorite examples are Silence of the Lambs, Cape Fear, Seven, Misery, The Bone Collector, Kiss the Girls. After reading a LOT of books based on serial killers, when I read the premise of Sager's fifth thriller I was definitely intrigued. So many authors have covered the same theme so I wanted to know what could possibly be different this time. I can confirm one thing Sager does extremely well is turn a simple story idea into something genuinely original. I was pleasantly surprised with the story of Charlie Jordan and her mysterious driver, Josh Baxter, who set off on a page-turning journey into the night that made me stay up past midnight racing to the end just to find out what happened.
The plot was fast-paced and kept me glued to the page. I loved the cast of characters, especially the independent protagonist Charlie, who is courageous, smart, and has a passion for horror movies. I felt like I was sitting in the passenger seat along for the ride the entire time, as if the book was a movie playing out in my mind (similar to the story's protagonist). And with the plot advancing at break-neck speed, I was kept guessing at the end of each chapter. One of my favorite scenes sees Charlie and Josh stop at a diner along the way, set in a remote location miles from the campus where they left from. It's one of the most pivotal moments in the book without the reader realizing it. All the details of the scene, from the greasy food to the dirty restrooms, were so vivid and the suspense between the characters was palpable. I caught myself holding my breath in many of the scenes, waiting for the truth to reveal itself.
One of my favorite things about Sager's books is that they're all completely different from one another. There is no correct book to start with so just dive into the one that speaks to you first.
I recommend Survive the Night to readers who enjoy everything nineties, movie references, strong female protagonists, and twisty, slow-building suspense.
It's November 1991. Nirvana's in the tape deck, George H. W. Bush is in the White House, and movie-obsessed college student Charlie Jordan is in a car with a man who might be a serial killer.
Josh Baxter, the man behind the wheel, is a virtual stranger to Charlie. They met at the campus ride board, each looking to share the long drive home to Ohio. Both have good reasons for wanting to get away. For Charlie, it's guilt and grief over the shocking murder of her best friend, who became the third victim of the man known as the Campus Killer. For Josh, it's to help care for his sick father—or so he says.
The longer she sits in the passenger seat, the more Charlie notices there's something suspicious about Josh, from the holes in his story about his father to how he doesn't want her to see inside the trunk. As they travel an empty, twisty highway in the dead of night, an increasingly anxious Charlie begins to think she's sharing a car with the Campus Killer. Is Josh truly dangerous? Or is Charlie's jittery mistrust merely a figment of her movie-fueled imagination?
One thing is certain—Charlie has nowhere to run and no way to call for help. Trapped in a terrifying game of cat and mouse played out on pitch-black roads and in neon-lit parking lots, Charlie knows the only way to win is to survive the night.

Part One: Gabby Petito Timeline
If you're anything like me, you've been following the Gabby Petito case. To try and make it easier, I've compiled the information into a timeline below which I'll continue updating until they catch and prosecute the criminal responsible.
If you have any information on the case such as, potential sightings, photos, videos, or other details, do not hesitate to contact the FBI at tips.fbi.gov or by phone to 1-800-CALL-FBI or 303-629-7171. Videos and images may be submitted to fbi.gov/petito. You may also contact your local FBI office or the nearest American Embassy or Consulate.
The Last Road trip
Mid June 2021
Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie were seen leaving his parent's home in North Port, Florida. They had been living there together prior to preparing for the road trip. They headed north to New York in the van before heading west on July 2nd. They planned to stop in various national parks along the way, ending their trip in Oregon.
Background: (Gabby's father, Joseph Petito stated to authorities that the two had been friends in high school, and after graduation, kept in touch. Their relationship became romantic a few years later and they ended up living together at Laundrie's family home, before getting engaged in July 2020.)
The couple arrived at Monument Rocks.
July 8th to August 11th
They stopped in multiple locations including Zion National Park and Mystic Hot Springs.
A concerned citizen called in a domestic disturbance outside the Moonflower Community Cooperative in Moab, Utah stating to the police: "We drove by and the gentleman was slapping the girl. Then we stopped. They ran up and down the sidewalk. He proceeded to hit her, hopped in the car, and they drove off."
In the bodycam footage from Moab officers, Petito said she suffered from OCD and anxiety, with both her and Laundrie saying she was stressed because of the YouTube blog they were working on to document the doomed cross-country trip.
Laundrie is seen with scratches on his face and arm which he tells an officer were caused when Petito 'was trying to get the keys from me' and 'hit me with her phone'.
He later said she was angry with him because of his dirty feet.
When an officer asks Petito if her boyfriend hit her, she replies 'I guess' and makes a grabbing motion on her chin.
Laundrie admits he 'pushed her' during the altercation.
The cops determine Petito was 'the primary aggressor' and say they are separating the couple for the night.
I have included a clip directly beneath but if you're interested in the full video, scroll and click to watch the second one below.

FULL LENGTH body cam footage
Another source indicated the caller mentioned he saw Gabby hitting Laundrie on the arm. According to the police report, Laundrie said the weeks of traveling caused an emotional strain. He also said Petito thought he was going to leave her in Moab without a ride. The witness then said he watched as Petito climbed in the driver's window as if Laundrie locked her out. No criminal charges were filed and the couple slept apart that night, according to the police report.
A National Park Service ranger who also responded to the call interacted with Petito for about 90 minutes, and warned her that her relationship with Laundrie had markings of a "toxic" one, the ranger told the Deseret News of Utah.
"I was imploring with her to reevaluate the relationship, asking her if she was happy in the relationship with him, and basically saying this was an opportunity for her to find another path, to make a change in her life," ranger Melissa Hulls told the Deseret News.
August 17th – 23rd
Laundrie family attorney Steven Bertolino confirms Brian Laundrie flew home to Tampa from Salt Lake City on August 17 and flew back to Salt Lake City on August 23 to "rejoin Gabby."
First and only Youtube video posted of the couple's trip on the road.
The pair checked out of the Fairfield Inn and Suites in Salt Lake City where they had apparently spent a few nights. Gabby had been chatting and Facetiming her mom leading up to and during this period. Her mother, Nicole Schmidt, stated Gabby had mentioned a heightened 'tension' developing between the pair over the course of their trip, as mentioned in the police affidavit.
Strange fact: The hotel where the two stayed is located less than 700 feet from the FBI Salt Lake City field office.
Gabby's last Instagram post.
Idaho shop owner said he spoke with the couple, who both seemed happy and were talking of their travel plans. They mentioned they were thinking of going to Yellowstone National Park.
"They told me they were traveling from Florida. They had just been to Teton Park and they said they were interested in going to Yellowstone and I told them they could go to the west entrance," the owner, who was not identified, told the outlet.
"They seemed happy and when they left, she hollered back from the door that they were engaged and then I said congratulations."
August 26th (TIP surfaced September 23rd)
A witness, Jessica Schultz, saw Laundrie parked in a white van on August 26 at Grand Teton National Park, and no one appeared to be with him, she told the San Francisco Chronicle.
Nicole, Petito's mom, received a strange text from Gabby's phone that read, "Can you help Stan, I just keep getting his voicemails and missed calls." This stuck her as odd because Petito would never refer to her grandfather as 'Stan'. Her cell phone was then turned off and non-operational.
While the family deem this as 'odd' behavior for Gabby, investigators do believe she sent the Aug. 27 text.
August 27th (TIP September 22nd)
Diners at Merry Piglets in Jackson Hole saw Laundrie and Petito causing a scene with the staff. The restaurant and a receipt from the couple's meal corroborate that they were there between 1 and 2 PM on that day.
The witness continued: Brian was arguing with four female employees over his bill. His body language was "aggressive" and "violent," and he seemed "angry" and "relentless" over the issue. Brian left "abruptly" and came back inside the restaurant about four times and that Gabby was "crying" the whole time. Gabby was described as looking "sad" and said she sat outside on the sidewalk before coming back inside to apologize for Brian's behavior and urge him to "drop it" so that they could leave.
TIP September 23rd
Separately, a man who saw the domestic dispute between Petito and Laundrie in Utah last month said, "They were talking aggressively at each other, and something seemed off."In a handwritten sworn statement, the witness said it appeared the two were arguing over control of Petito's phone. "At one point she was punching him in the arm and/or face and trying to get into the van."
The witness said he heard Petito say, "Why do you have to be so mean?" although Chris added that he couldn't be sure if the comment was meant to be taken seriously.
**This could be one of the last time Gabby Petito was see alive.**
Petito/Schmidt family receive the last text from Gabby's phone which reads, "No service in Yosemite" — nearly 900 miles away, in California. The family don't think it was Gabby who wrote it.
Afterward, the phone was turned off and non operational.
Brian Laundrie crosses interstate 75 in Florida at 10:26AM driving Petito's white van. He doesn't speak to anyone. When Gabby's family reach out and try to contact him, he doesn't respond and neither do his parents. The family goes radio silent, hires a lawyer, and refuses to speak to law enforcement.
NOTE: It takes 35 hours driving the shortest route from Teton Park, Wyoming to North Port, Florida with zero breaks in between or traffic. In that scenario Brian Laundrie would have had to leave the park no later than 9:26 PM on Monday, August 30th. And we know he was last seen in the park on the Sunday, August 29th at 6:10 PM by a camper who gave him a lift towards Jackson.
UPDATE September 6th – 8th (received 9/29)
The Laundrie family camped at Fort De Soto Campground, 75 miles from their North Port home in Florida. Laundrie's mother, Roberta, was checked in at the waterfront site on these dates, according to a Pinellas County Parks campground check-in report provided to CNN.
The family lawyer states they left on the 7th, all together.
UPDATE September 10th (received 9/29)
The weekend of September 10th was the last weekend that a neighbor of the Laundries, Karyn Aberts, says she saw Brian Laundrie at his home.
Petito/Schmidt family file a missing persons report for their daughter.
Law enforcement and her family continue to plead with Laundrie for information. Investigators said he is not cooperating.
"We don't know what Brian knows; that's the bottom line. We're hopeful to talk him. He needs to talk us. We need to know exactly where he was where she was their last locations," Josh Taylor, the Public Information Officer for North Port, said.
Police impound Petito's white van 5 hours after she's filed as a missing person in Long Island, taking it from the Laundrie home, while they wait for the search warrant.
UPDATE: A neighbor stated that the weekend of September 10th, she saw the Laundrie family "in the neighborhood out in the front yard," and that it looked like "a normal … they were going for a walk kind of thing," and that she "never thought anything about it." She also told CNN, "We saw them take walks as a family," and "We saw them ride their bikes as a family and things like that."
Another neighbor stated he saw the Laundrie family packing up a pickup truck and attached camper before taking a long weekend trip together right after Petito was declared missing. He also stated he saw Laundrie's father, Christopher, working on another camper after the FBI came and towed Petito's white van away. They (neighbors) estimated that there was about "a week, week-and-a-half" between the day they saw Brian return in the van and the day he and his parents took off in the truck with the camper.
According to his parents, Brian left to go hiking in the Carlton Reserve National Park. He left with nothing but a backpack.
Police name Brian Laundrie a 'person of interest' in the missing persons case for Gabby Petito.
Brian Laundrie was named as a person of interest by the North Port police for hindering the investigation.
Police execute a warrant and access Petito's external hard drive and computer found inside the white van.
North Port police hold a press conference with Petito's father in which they beg for the Laundrie family to help them find Gabby.
Laundrie's sister speaks with "Good Morning America" hours after the Petito family hold a press conference asking for their help. Cassie Laundrie breaks the family's silence stating: "Obviously me and my family want Gabby to be found safe," she said. "She's like a sister and my children love her, and all I want is for her to come home safe and found and this to be just a big misunderstanding."
Laundrie family report Brian missing since Tuesday when he left for the hike. Police execute a search for the missing man, searching his room for personal items to assist the K9 units, heading to his last known whereabouts located at the Carlton Reserve National Park in Florida. Police discovered his allegedly abandoned Ford Mustang near the entrance, towing it away as possible evidence.
UPDATE: It was later revealed the family went looking for Laundrie on Wednesday 15th, and found his Ford Mustang, which had a police note on it demanding that the vehicle be removed from the area. The family initially left the car there so that Laundrie could drive it back, but they returned on Thursday 16th, to retrieve it, according to Bertolino (the Laundrie lawyer).
Carlton Reserve National Park.
Passerby Zachary Randazzo snapped a photo of a man with Laundrie's description at 5PM on Friday, 9/17 at Targee Avenue in North Port — about two blocks from Laundrie's parents' home, and 90 minutes before police showed up at his home following the missing persons report.
This has since been disproven to be Brian Laundrie.
REVEAL September 17th
Petito's friend, Rose Davis from Sarasota, revealed Laundrie as a controlling and manipulative boyfriend. She said Petito had described strange episodes, which at times forced her to sleep at Davis's house.
"He's got these jealousy issues and he struggles from what Gabby called these 'episodes,' where he would hear things and hear voices and wouldn't sleep," she told the NY Post.
"Gabby had to stay at my house a bunch of times because she just needed a breather and didn't want to go home to him."
Read full post here.
Search for Laundrie continues throughout Carlton Reserve in Sarasota County.
"A weekend ground search and aerial search Monday of the 25-thousand-acre preserve has yet to yield any answers, but we must press on," North Port Police said on Facebook. Police indicated the search picked up Tuesday in a different part of the reserve. It concluded Tuesday evening around sundown and resumed Wednesday morning.
The search effort included the use of drones and bloodhounds who used articles of Laundrie's clothing taken from his home to get his scent. Police initially focused their search on a nearby park which spans about 200 acres before expanding to the rest of the reserve.
TIP September 18th
Police receive a tip from a vlogger with footage potentially revealing Gabby's last known location. A search is conducted in Grand Teton National Park.
Vloggers reviewing video footage after listening to the news thought they'd captured Petito's white van while driving through the park between 6 – 6.30PM on August 27th. They realized it may have been evidence and sent it straight to police.

TIP #2 September 18th
Fellow camper, Miranda Baker, says she believes her and her boyfriend picked up Brian Laundrie in the evening at Colter Bay in Wyoming National Park and gave him a ride back to his van on August 29th. Apparently, Laundrie stated he'd been camping alone for the past few days while his girlfriend was staying in their van working on social media projects. She said he offered to pay them $200 for the ride before getting into their vehicle.
Laundrie, who was wearing a backpack, pants and hiking boots, "looked clean and didn't smell bad," and was very polite, Baker said. Laundrie told them he had been camping "basically in the middle of nowhere" at a site outside the Grand Teton National Park, near the Snake River.
Laundrie claimed to have hiked for days along that river, and that all he had was a tarp to sleep on, she said. Once Laundrie found out Baker and her boyfriend were going to Jackson Hole he got agitated, asked that the vehicle stop, and got out near Jackson Dam in Grand Teton National Park, according to Baker. She said they dropped him off less than 30 minutes after picking him up.
In a second video, Baker said Laundrie allegedly told her that he and Petito were camping along Snake River on an unregulated campground, "basically out in the middle of nowhere."
Laundrie allegedly told them he had been "hiking for days along Snake River."
Baker then recalled how unprepared Laundrie looked for someone who had been hiking and camping outside for days.
"Looking at his backpack, it wasn't full," Baker said. "He said all he had was a tarp to sleep on. Which, you think if you're going camping for days on end, you'd want food and a tent, and he had none of that."
This all happened four days after the Schmidt/Petito family last heard from Gabby, and three days before Laundrie showed up back home in Florida alone.
Amanda Baker on TikTok
Within 24 hours of receiving various tips and video footage, human remains matching the description of the missing 22 year old Gabby Petito was found in an undeveloped camping area in Bridger-Teton National Forest on the eastern edge of the park in western Wyoming. The body was taken to the coroner's office in Denver, Colorado for autopsy.
It was later revealed the body was found a short distance from where Petito's white van was last seen.
Coroner confirms the body found belongs to that of missing woman, Gabby Petito.
FBI storm the Laundrie home and execute a search warrant in light of Petito's death, removing his parents from the home and declaring it a crime scene. They remove several boxes and tow away a car thought to be frequently used by Laundrie's mother.
Report of potential sighting in Brian Laundrie search. Sam Bass said he spotted the man toting a backpack at 6:17AM. Monday in the town of Baker, Fla., about 500 miles away from Laundrie's home in North Port.
"I'm not saying this is the guy but whoever was on my trail camera this morning in Baker, Fl strongly fits the description of Brian Laundrie," Bass wrote on Facebook. "Authorities have been contacted but people in the North West Florida area be on the look out."
This has since been disproven.
Coroner rules Gabby Petito's cause of death a homicide.
UPDATE: Sept. 22nd
Priya Banerjee, a forensic pathologist, told the media on Wednesday that officials might not release the cause of death because it could hurt the investigation. Banerjee said that it will be hard to tie a perpetrator to the crime because of the conditions where Petito's body was found.
"That is a challenge, tying the perpetrator to the crime, especially, I want to say, in the setting of decomposition, this was out in the wild, high-temperature fluctuation," she said.
And, she told Fox News, Brian Laundrie's DNA will likely be found with Petito since the couple spent so much time together on a cross-country road trip.
"So that will be a challenge, I think, to tie it all together," she said.
Police continue and extend search for Brian Laundrie in The Carlton Reserve in Sarasota, Florida, including a dive team and cadaver dogs. Investigators also were using sonar to check large bodies of water in the sprawling, rugged terrain.
Criminal defense attorney, former assistant DA and police officer, Philip Holloway told Fox News he believed it was a slim chance of finding Brian Laundrie alive.
Police gather to continue search, Wednesday, 9/22/21 in Sarasota County, FL.
BACKGROUND September 22nd
A friend of the couple, Ben Matula, states their relationship was rocky since high school, "One minute they'd be all over each other, the next minute he'd be like, 'We're fighting.' They always had some drama."
FBI and DA of Wyoming issued a warrant for Brian Laundrie's arrest. He was indicted by a federal grand jury for "use of unauthorized access devices" following Petito's death. Charging documents allege that Laundrie used an unauthorized debit card (Petito's) with the intent to defraud, spending $1000 between Aug. 30th and Sept. 1st.
Another witness has come forward, Norma Jean Jalovec, claiming she picked up Laundrie who was hitchhiking the evening of August 29th around 6:15PM to 6:30PM.

As she drove past Jackson Lake Dam — where Miranda Baker (the first camper to give him a ride) said she'd dropped Laundrie off when he "freaked out" about going to Jackson — and saw a man, walking backward with his thumb out. He asked if she could take him to Spread Creek.
When she arrived at the entrance to the Spread Creek camping area, Laundrie told her to drop him off at the gate. Jalovec told the media she told him she could drive him inside, and that's when he tried to get out while her vehicle was still moving.
Jalovec cracked a joke about trying to impress his fiance by hiking in rather than hitching a ride, but his response was to insist on being let out of the vehicle.
A woman in Canada thinks she sees Laundrie exiting the hotel she's staying at and snaps a picture, alerting the staff and police.
The woman said a worker at the hotel, which she did not identify, told her that the mystery man "didn't know where he was going and he had the wrong hotel."
The TikTok user said she sent the image to local news outlets and also reported her encounter with the man to the FBI.
BACKGROUND September 24th
Gabby's best friend, Rose Davis, told authorities Brian Laundrie is capable of surviving in the wilderness. Davis claimed "If he's alive, he's out there, camping out … He lived in the Appalachians by himself for months." And, she suspects he is on the run, in the swamps, and not holed up with someone who might be harboring him.
"He does not have friends," Davis said. "He reads books."
NOTE: The quickest route to the Appalachian mountains from North Port, FL takes a little under 9 hours by car, Brian Laundrie had a 3 day head start.
A tip alleges Brian went into a Florida campground (Fort De Soto Park) with both his parents in early September from Sept. 1-3 and Sept. 6-8. — but only his parents were seen leaving.
"They were registered, went through the gate. They're on camera. They were here on Monday evening. "We think at least if he's not here right now, we are sure he was caught on camera as he went in the gate — that he was here for sure. Not over in the swamp."
The Pinellas County sheriff dept. responded with:
"No we are not heading to Ft. De Soto and there has been no confirmed sighting of Brian in Pinellas County.
We will refer you back to North Port PD for any further questions."
Investigators working with Duane Chapman (Dog the Bounty Hunter) are honing in on portions of the Appalachian Trail in North Carolina. As the manhunt for Laundrie forges on, people have claimed to have seen the 23-year-old avid hiker in Watauga County, North Carolina, according to multiple reports. Users in a private Facebook page, Appalachian Classifieds, described how people were "reporting seeing Brian Laundrie in Boone, NC."
The Watauga County Sheriff's Office told local affiliate FOX 46, "We were looking into these claims, but nothing has been verified."
Brian Laundrie's parents bought a burner phone from AT&T on Sept. 14th, the day he disappeared. It was later seized by the FBI.
A hiker claimed to have run into Brian Laundrie on a deserted road on the Appalachian Trail near the South Carolina border. He stated that Laundrie parked his car before asking for help, mentioning, "Sir, I am lost. My girlfriend and I had a fight. But she called me, told me that she loved me. I have to go to California to see her."
Christopher Laundrie, Brian's father, finally joins the search for his missing son.
The coroner rules Petito's cause of death as manual strangulation and noted it occurred three weeks before her body was found.
Items, a backpack, and a notebook, believed to belong to Brian Laundrie were found off a trail where he frequented. Coroner called to park to help with the identification of human remains found near the items.
Remains confirmed to be that of Brian Laundrie.
Brian Laundrie's cause of death was confirmed to be a gunshot wound to the head, and the manner of death was suicide.

A Crime Archive
I've always been drawn to death; I know how that sounds. A lot of people have asked me over the years how I can stomach delving into the darker side of life, and the only reason I can think of is, perhaps there's a little darkness in me too. Throughout my life I've come to accept the fact that not everyone will understand that side of me. And whatever reason(s) are behind this insatiable thirst for truth, it's always kept me on the straight and narrow; seeking justice where there is none and asking questions many are scared to.
My years growing up are bookmarked by whichever grisly crime I followed at the time and whenever I meet new people and they tell me where they're from I can often relate it back to a crime I've obsessively researched. I have an unusually detailed memory and can still recall the first murder case that sparked my interest when I was eight years old. It was the most gruesome crime committed by juveniles the United Kingdom had seen in over 250 years. A crime that still haunts me to this day. And if you ask anyone living in the UK who was old enough at the time, they'll remember the James Bulger case.
It was a typically frigid February morning in Edinburgh, Scotland and I was sitting cross-legged by the fireplace, eating breakfast before school. We'd been living back in the UK for two years since leaving California and I was still adapting to the change in climate. The morning headline flashed on the TV screen and I stared at the faces of two boys not much older than myself. Their expressions solemn and somewhat innocent as they followed instructions of officers off camera, and held up mugshot placards with their names written in black marker. I squinted in disbelief, my expression twisted as I turned up the volume to learn more.

"Baby Killers" the newspapers pegged them. Two ten year old boys from Merseyside, Liverpool were found guilty of abducting two year old, James Bulger from the New Strand shopping centre, and leading him to a railway embankment nearby where they tortured him to death.
I felt an adrenaline surge as I tried to digest the information. But the chilling image of two boys caught in surveillance footage leading a toddler through a crowd of unsuspecting shoppers burned behind my eyes. I was stunned. How could two children be responsible for killing another child? I'd always pictured killers as adults; faceless maniacs that lurked in the shadows waiting to pounce on unsuspecting victims as they walked past. They replayed the footage, freezing on the last image ever caught of the boys leading a two year old away from his mother. And a knot tugged at the pit of my stomach as I realized I'd stood in the exact same spot as the killers the year previous while visiting my grandparents.

If you're curious regarding details of the crime, I've included a link to the case in the second paragraph. After 27 years, psychiatrists who worked closely with the two boys during their time in rehabilitation still cannot fathom a motive to the murder they committed in February of '93. Detective Phil Roberts, from the local forces serious crime squad stated to reporters, "As far as I'm concerned, I looked evil in the face that day…They were a match made in Hell. A freak of nature."
Since being released in 2001, both killers have lead very different lives: Jon Venables continuing his life as a repeat offender, and Robert Thompson living a crime free life of anonymity. It's been nineteen years since their initial release, which sparked fury amongst the public and even though I now live in a different country and had no personal connection to the case, I still check in on them from time to time. That's in my nature.
And so began my life-long fascination with true crime and the psychology behind it. I have followed many disturbing cases over the years, researching and compiling notes which, more recently, I turned into a novel. It wasn't until finishing that project that I decided my notes could be put to better use and compiled as a blog rather than a personal journal. Cold and breaking cases will be the focus of my continued discussions here. If you're interested in true crime or have any additional information about specific cases, you can reach out to me via email or contact the tip links I post at the end of each blog post.

NASCAR Revs Up On Mobile With In-App Loyalty
by Allison Schiff // Friday, February 27th, 2015 – 6:00 am
NASCAR fans are loyal fans – and loyal fans are gunning to engage.
But until last week, NASCAR, which acts as a governing body for stock car racing in the US and around the world, didn't have a way for its fans to show their loyalty through the organization's mobile app, a linchpin of its overall digital strategy.
NASCAR relaunched its app, complete with new rewards-based loyalty functionality powered by mobile loyalty platform SessionM, to coincide with the Daytona 500 last Sunday.
Registered users of the app can now earn points based on their frequency of usage, for checking in at a racetrack, accessing the app during a live broadcast, making purchases on NASCAR.com or engaging with videos, rich media ads or branded games.
NASCAR's loyalty play also has an attractive location component. Users can earn points for checking in at a physical venue, say a retail location, restaurant or stadium, or for checking in during a live TV broadcast. Users who upload photos of receipts can earn points for offline purchases.
"We were looking to create a really good user experience and to bring value to the most loyal users of our app," said Tim Clark, senior director of digital platforms for NASCAR Digital Media.
NASCAR reassumed control over its digital and social properties, including NASCAR.com, its phone and tablet apps and its Facebook, Twitter and YouTube accounts, from Turner Sports in 2012 and relaunched its digital experience the following year, complete with live scoring, access to in-car audio and video, driver stats, results, sporting news and real-time race highlights. Turner will continue to handle NASCAR's digital ad sales through 2016.
The racing body's official app, sponsored by Sprint and Toyota,is an on-the-go hub for all of these features, each of which can now function as a points-earning opportunity for fans and a potential native play for advertisers. Users can earn mPOINTS, as SessionM's loyalty currency is called, by engaging directly with advertisers like Walgreens and shipping startup Shyp.
NASCAR collects basic user information upon registration, including email address, age and gender. It uses these to personalize content. It also leverages its SessionM relationship to access users across the SessionM network of apps.
SessionM's loyalty tech is integrated with about 1,200 apps, including Sony's Crackle, TMZ, Flixster, apps from Warner Brothers, CBS local sites and Moviefone, as well as a variety of fitness, sports and entertainment apps. SessionM uses those integrations to tap into active audiences on behalf of clients like NASCAR.
"By virtue of the fact that we power all of these loyalty programs, where consumers opt in to create an account, we have access to a large logged-in audience across apps, which gives us a lot of rich first-party data," said SessionM CRO Bill Clifford. "If a brand is trying to reach 35-year-old male sports enthusiasts, we can target users that meet those criteria across SessionM's coalition of apps."
As users spend more time in apps across the network, engaging with features and taking voluntary surveys, SessionM collects behavioral data and other attributes. Apps like NASCAR's can benefit from that information to inform its audience acquisition and activation.
"Over time, we might have about 55 different datapoints on registered users," Clifford said. "From there we can acquire users into NASCAR's app or retarget existing fans between races or throughout the long season to keep them coming back."
SessionM also runs a program that allows its developers to reinvest the ad revenue they generate through the platform in audience acquisition for a discounted rate. According to Fiksu, the average cost per loyal user is up about 40% to $2.90 since December. SessionM charges its apps $1.25 on a cost-per-install basis.
"SessionM has an expansive network of other apps and loyalty programs, and we're looking to learn from them as we continue to evolve our app experience," Clark said. "We try to be as unobtrusive as possible and we never dive deeper that we need in terms of basic data collection. We never look to gather any data that we can't use to improve the user experience. Everything we do have got to be mutually beneficial for the user."
But advertisers also can benefit from NASCAR's engaged audience. According to Clifford, more than 70% of users watch video ads in NASCAR's app, with a 98% completion rate on 15-second spots and a 95% completion rate on 30-second spots.
"We've found that when an experience feels native, people are more likely to engage, which drives a higher value exchange between brands and consumers," Clifford said.
In terms of inventory, the vast majority is sold directly, although SessionM does facilitate a few private programmatic direct deals.
"We view this as extremely premium inventory and we think brands view it in the same way," Clifford said. "We're not talking about banners and interstitials."
Clarke declined to share the exact number of monthly active users on NASCAR's app.

Our Operators
Property & Vehicle Security
Professional Maintenance
Dispatch & On Scene Practices
Once the vehicle arrives at our facility, the driver and a supervisor inventory the vehicle again, and recopy the Vehicle Identification Number for accuracy to begin the proper notification to the owners and agents associated with this vehicle and create a folder that includes all the information necessary for this vehicle to be processed within our facility. The driver will then notify the dispatcher that he has completed all his paperwork and clear of that call. The vehicle is then stored, depending on its condition, inside or out.
Exceptions to the rule: When a vehicle is placed in a HOLD status by the police department, no person will be able to have access to the vehicle. It is securely stored inside where only the police personnel or designated agent has access. With the assistance of our computer software program, a bright red box appears with the click of the HOLD button within the impound ticket, giving immediate attention to the fact that this vehicle is on hold and access is denied. The vehicle will stay in an on HOLD status until the police officer who administered the HOLD has released it by signing a form with his ID number. Upon release of the vehicle by the police department or designated agent, the HOLD button is removed within the vehicle invoice, and it immediately time stamps the information into the notations and asks for information as to the person releasing the HOLD status and their credentials.
When the registered owner comes to retrieve his or her vehicle or personal property, the registered owner is required to provide proof of ownership; at this time, he will be informed of the outstanding charges and allowed to remove his personal belongings and anything that is not affixed to the vehicle at no charge. Upon removal of the owner's vehicle either by the owner directly or his designated agent, he will be presented with the charges and once paid the vehicle will be brought to him for retrieval. If the vehicle has been involved in an accident or stolen possibly with no wheels, it will be brought out via one of the three forklifts designed to relocate vehicles that do not roll within our facility at no charge.
A copy of a release that has been signed by the registered owner will be placed in the folder of that vehicle along with all other pertinent information regarding that person's vehicle and stored in a history file by date, municipality and make of vehicle. This information remains in hardcopy format for seven years.
If the registered owner does not come to remove his vehicle from our facility within seven days of the vehicle being towed, certified letters are mailed via an online vehicle information tool called Auto Data Direct, in which real time data on vehicle status and ownership allows for mailing of certified mail to all parties involved as required by State Statute 713.78. Auto Data Direct retains copies of all correspondence and the registered paperwork in an electronic fashion so that no information is lost by means of the postal service or other functions.
Once a vehicle has been at our facility more than two weeks, an auction date is established for the disposal of that vehicle. Utilizing the online services of Auto Data Direct, fifteen days prior to the established auction, an ad is placed in the newspaper advertising the sale of that vehicle. When the auction date arrives, and the vehicle is sold at auction, Towing Florida Turnpike again uses the online services of Auto Data Direct to apply for a Certificate of Destruction with the State of Florida complying with the titling and salvage laws within the State Statuary laws. Once the Certificate of Destruction is attained by our company, the vehicle is delivered to the purchaser of the vehicle at the auction. No abandoned vehicle leaves our facility without having a Certificate of Destruction in the name of Towing Florida Turnpike. This ensures all vehicles sold at auction are properly applied for under State Statute 713.78.

Q: $1+i$ is prime in $\mathbb Z[i]$ How does one prove the above statement?
I can show that $1+i$ is irreducible using the norm function i.e $a^2-b^2n$.
I tried to show that the ideal $(1+i)$ is prime but still came up short.
Is it possible to show that $\mathbb Z[i]/(1+i)$ is an integral domain?

A:
Is it possible to show that Z[i]/(1+i) is an integral domain?

Yes. You should be easily able to see that $\mathbb Z[i]/(1+i)\cong \mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z$.
If it helps, you can recast $\mathbb Z[i]/(1+i)$ as $\mathbb Z[x]/(x^2+1, 1+x)$.

A: $N(1+i)=2$, which is prime, and the norm is multiplicative. If $1+i$ were composite, its norm would be too.
To prove $1+i$ is prime, the simplest consists in proving Gauß integers are a Euclidean domain, i.e.  for any $a+ib, c+id\in \mathbf Z[i]$ there  exist $q, r\in  \mathbf Z[i]$ such that
$$a+bi=q(c+di)+r \qquad N(r)< N(c+di)$$
To prove it, you have  to show there exists a Gauß' integer $q$ such that
$$N\biggl(\frac{a+bi}{c+di}-q\biggr)< 1. $$
There will result $\mathbf Z[i]$ is a P.I.D., so that irreducible elements generate a prime ideal.

Q: Write Python Dataframe to CSV file directly in Azure Datalake I have imported an excel file into a pandas dataframe and have completed the data exploration and cleaning process.
I now want to write the cleaned dataframe to csv file back to Azure DataLake, without saving it first as a local file. I am using pandas 3.
My code looks like this:
token = lib.auth(tenant_id = '',
                 client_secret ='',
                 client_id = '')

adl = core.AzureDLFileSystem(token, store_name)

with adl.open(path='Raw/Gold/Myfile.csv', mode='wb') as f:
    **in_xls.to_csv(f, encoding='utf-8')**
    f.close()

I get the following dump in statement in bold.
TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'
I also tried but without any luck
with adl.open(path='Raw/Gold/Myfile.csv', mode='wb') as f:
    with io.BytesIO(in_xls) as byte_buf:
        byte_buf.to_csv(f, encoding='utf-8')
        f.close()

I am getting the below error:

TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'DataFrame'

Any ideas/tips will be much appreciated

A: I got this working with pandas the other day with python 3.X. This code runs on an on premise machine and connects to the azure data store in the cloud.
Assuming df is a pandas dataframe you can use the following code:
adl = core.AzureDLFileSystem(token, store_name='YOUR_ADLS_STORE_NAME')
      #toke is your login token that was created by whatever ADLS login method you decided.
      #Personally I use the ServiceProvider login
df_str = df.to_csv()
with adl.open('/path/to/file/on/adls/newfile.csv', 'wb') as f:
    f.write(str.encode(df_str))
    f.close()

This key is converting the dataframe to a string and than using the str.encode() function.
Hope this helps.

Incredible aerial images of Disneyland theme parks from above
By Amy Nelmes Bissett|7:08pm Jun 15, 2017
With an average of 16.2million visitors a year, life on the ground at Disneyland can turn into a foot-shuffling, elbows-out experience, with views of the attractions being obscured.
But photograph Jeffrey Milstein wanted to get a different view and took to the skies to take photos of the Californian theme park from above. And it looks like a totally different world.
The New York-based but Los Angeles-born snapper opted for taking the incredible photos from a helicopter, flying over the well-known Anaheim site, instead of using a drone.
"I have primarily been shooting the manmade landscape from the air for the past six years," he told Lonely Planet. "As a former architect with an interest in graphic design, I look for dramatic light and patterns and geometry that make a well balanced and pleasing classical composition, while at the same time looking for pictures that show us something about our culture."
And it was a challenge, due to Disney's flight restriction meaning Jeffrey had to ensure he was 30,000ft above the attractions.
He used a Phase One IQ3 100-megapixel camera and Sony A7r2 to take the images.
He added: "I have a helicopter with the door off and I have the pilot make steep turns so I can lean out and shoot straight down.
"It's exciting and you see things you would never get to see and get to take pictures to show other people new things."

Chingay through the years: From streetside procession to massive extravaganza
Feb 27, 2015, 12:53 pm SGT
http://str.sg/8Rr
Melissa Heng
melheng@sph.com.sg
SINGAPORE - This year's upcoming Chingay parade, an annual street procession to mark Chinese New Year, looks set to be the best one yet.
Not only will it celebrate Singapore's golden jubilee, but it will also have the highest number of international performers in the history of the parade and the biggest number of volunteers.
The first ever Chingay parade in Singapore took place in 1973 from Jalan Besar to Outram Park. The parade, with its signature floats and colourful performers, became muti-cultural in 1977 when Malay and Indian groups joined the procession.
It has since grown into a major celebration, claiming to be the largest street performance and float parade in Asia.
Recent parades have included thousands of performers and volunteers, stunning fireworks and massive and elaborate floats that showcase the country's unique multicultural personality.
Here are some highlights from Chingay parades through the years.
Thousands of people thronged the streets to watch the first Chingay parade held in Singapore on Feb 4, 1973. Over 2000 performers took part in the parade, including stilt-walkers, jugglers and comic acrobats.
In 1987, singers from Tokyo, sponsored by The Straits Times, participated in the procession. They were the first international act to join the parade which has now come to include multiple foreign performances.
The 25th Chingay parade in 1997 was a one-and-half hour celebration that featured Indian classical dance, Japanese rock-and-roll bands and five colourful floats decorated in the theme of Alice In Wonderland.
Chingay started with a bang in 2004 when 18 6m-long firecrackers were set off for the first time during the parade. A 200,000-strong crowd witnessed 16 floats decked in fairy lights, more than 3,000 performers and a special appearance by action star Jackie Chan.
2014's celebration set the bar for the Chingay parade. With giant puppets, an 8m-tall straw horse, the country's largest batik painting, and - at the heart of it all - some 70,000 volunteers and performers, it was the grandest showing by the annual Chinese New Year procession since it began in 1973.
With the theme "Colours Of Fabric, One People", the parade also had the most number of foreign performers yet, with more than 800 people from six countries.

Top 5 Facts about Ketchup
by Katerina S · August 18, 2014
We can all agree that food would be so boring without ketchup. French fries, pasta, fast food… what other condiment would we eat these foods with? The world simply loves their tomatoes in liquid form and today we offer you some interesting facts about ketchup. And in case you didn't know, you can eat ketchup all you want – it's healthy and doesn't have a lot
#1. Ketchup wasn't always made from tomatoes
The ketchup we eat today has a tomato as a base, but the early versions didn't have anything related to tomatoes. They were made from anchovies, shallots, oysters, lemons, or walnuts. Perhaps you find walnut ketchup hard to swallow or find shallots and oysters too fishy.
Image Source: www.i0.wp.com
#2. Five Ketchup tastes
Most people are familiar with four basic food flavors: sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. A fifth—umami or savory—is also a recognized flavor. It's a meaty taste and can be added to foods through flavorings such as monosodium glutamate and soy sauce. It was discovered by Japanese chemist Kikunae Ikeda and is found naturally in products such as ripe tomatoes, fish, and cured meat. The earliest versions of ketchup used only two basic flavors, combining the salty and the bitter. Today's recipes use five of them, courtesy of H.J. Heinz, founder of the eponymous Heinz company. While some recipes already called for vinegar and sometimes sugar, Heinz increased the amounts used, adding a sour taste and extra sweetness. He also insisted on only using ripe tomatoes, thereby ensuring umami.

#3. It Was a Cooking Ingredient
Ketchup is now primarily a condiment, but it wasn't always been that. It once was mainly an ingredient in foods like pies and in more complex sauces, and it was used to flavor fish, meat, and poultry while they were still being cooked. Housewives needing to make gravy with the necks, gizzards, feet, and livers of fowls could add a teaspoonful of mushroom ketchup for flavoring. The sauce became primarily a condiment in the 1900s, with the advent of hot dogs, french fries, and hamburgers. Modern spices and flavorings have gone well beyond the vision of pioneering giant H.J. Heinz.

#4. It Was a Cure
Ketchup was considered to be a medicine around 1835 and was sold as tomato pills. The idea came from Dr. John Cook Bennett, the president of the medical department at Willoughby University in Ohio. He thought that tomatoes could cure diarrhea, jaundice, and indigestion. Bennett took these ideas directly from Dr. William Smith, a physician who lived in Michigan, USA. Researchers debate whether the first version simply used the original hygiene pills, but later versions did contain tomatoes. Miles's success sparked numerous imitators, leading to even wilder claims of cures for rheumatism, the flu, headaches, and more. Many of the ketchup pills were fraudulent. Not only did they use no tomatoes—they were actually laxatives. This caused the tomato pill market to collapse in 1840.

#5. Ketchup Against Cancer
Ketchup (even though is no longer used as a cure) does indeed possess health benefits. It's good for the heart and helps reduce the risk of certain types of cancer. These benefits occur because ketchup is an excellent source of the chemical lycopene, which gives tomatoes its red color. Lycopene is an antioxidant, inhibiting inflammation and cell damage caused by free radicals. Uncooked tomato products such as juice are not as useful as ketchup because the body absorbs cooked tomato products better. Cooked products also have higher lycopene levels. For prostate cancer, research shows that lycopene reduces the growth of cancerous cells and also affects the way these cells communicate. It chokes the way blood flows to these cells by inhibiting the growth of blood vessels that feed tumors. Some studies indicate that lycopene also helps with liver, skin, breast, and lung cancer, but the results are inconclusive. Interestingly enough, the chemical appears naturally in the human lungs, skin, liver, blood, prostate, adrenal glands, and colon. It is the most dominant color component in those organs and is also thought to have a natural role in guarding against cancerous cells.Lycopene supplements, also called "essence of tomatoes" and "tomato pills," are sold worldwide. Daily dosages of these "wonder pills" are claimed to save lives, increase life spans, cut cholesterol, reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes, beat arthritis, help with diabetes, and keep the skin wrinkle-free. Bennett's concept of tomato pills has come full circle.

It's believed that Smith is up for the role of Black Panther Bobby Seale, who was put on trial on federal conspiracy charges, alongside other protesters, intellectuals and self-proclaimed revolutionaries, for the anti-war riots that swarmed Chicago during the 1968 Democratic Convention.
Smith also confirmed alongside director Francis Lawrence that an alternative ending will be included on the I Am Legend DVD, calling it "less commercial" and hinting that six seconds of it were included in one of the teaser trailers. Could this new ending be more faithful to the forever bleak conclusion in the eponymous Richard Matheson novel?

Latimore M. Smith
The Nature Conservancy (retired)
Covington, Louisiana
A gifted botanist and plant community ecologist, Latimore M. Smith spent more than 15 years with the Louisiana Natural Heritage Program (LNHP) in the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, identifying and documenting the diversity and ecology of natural habitats across the state. While identifying hundreds of exceptional sites, he focused on studying habitat types that were uncommon and had been poorly understood by the scientific community including many wetlands habitats in Louisiana. He was the first to recognize and formally describe longleaf pine flatwood wetlands, as previously undocumented wetland community in the state, as well as one of the first to aritculate their ecological importance and need for conservation. His work with Kisatchie National Forest significantly influenced ecosystem management across the 600,000-acre forest, including a multitude of extraordinary wetland sites. For over 17 years as the former Director of Stewardship and Restoration Ecologist for the Nature Conservancy's Louisiana Field Office, he dedicated himself to conserving, restoring, and managing many of the state's premier natural areas, including the globally rare longleaf pine ecosystem. He led the development and implementation of comprehensive conservation plans that covered thousands of acres at multiple sites. In addition, he was instrumental in the development of the first pine flatwood wetland mitigation bank and led the effort to protect the first longleaf pine flatwood wetland savanna placed in conservation in the state.

Bloopers: Song Requests
I love funny people and hilarious moments. As entertainers, we have lots of bloopers on and off stage. And one of them is so inevitable - when we get funny song requests being requested for us to perform. So I just thought of starting a post about BLOOPERS series on different things and let me start off with Song Requests. I will try to update this blog every time I'll have a new thing to share on this post.
These are just for laughs. We don't mean to mock on anyone. These are first-hand experiences by me and my band.
In Beijing, someone came up to the stage and asked if we can play "New York, New York". I belted out the classic broadway hit originally from Frank Sinatra. He shook his head. I thought he shook his head because he was "feeling" the music. Then he handed me a paper that read "Empire State of Mind" by Alicia Keys. LOLLL.
In KL, a guest handed a request onstage that read "Proper Face". I looked at my band and with my saliva bursting out of laughter, I realized she was requesting for "Poker Face". I couldn't make it through the song without laughing when it gets to the part when I had to repeat the phrase "Po-po-po-poker face".
In Beijing, a staff went to the stage and told us that a guest was requesting for "Morning I Can Say". I told her we don't play that song, thinking the guest meant "Morning Has Broken". But the staff insisted that we do play this song - all the time. I got intrigued. She suddenly sang "Woh-oh-woh, yeah-yeah... I love you morning I can say". She meant "More Than I Can Say". LOL.
In Shanghai, someone requested for "Shalalala". We played "Shalala" by the Dreamhouse. The guest meant "Every shalala, every woh-hoh-hoh... still shines", a line from the song "Yesterday Once More" by the Carpenters.
And in Beijing, a kid requested for "Shalala" during our 1st set. Because we haven't played it for such a long time & forgot the words to it, we spent our 1st break searching for the lyrics online & wrote the lyrics in a paper. Then we started our 2nd set with it. Turns out... the kid was requesting for Carpenter's Yesterday Once More "Every shalalala... every woh-hoh-woh-hoh..." Hahahahaha! TOINK!
In Beijing, my eyes teared up from laughing onstage because I got a request "Smoke Gas In Your Eyes". LOL. That must have been a painful prank, eh? :)
There are song titles that are easy to identify because they are always repeated in the song. But there are songs like "Unchained Melody" that never mentioned a thing about an unchained melody within the song. So we get requests like "Oh My Love" (pertaining to its first line) and "Unchange Melody". The funniest was when got a request called "The Gos", then erased it and wrote "The Goes". TOINK!!!
The song Casablanca is one of the all-time favorites here in China and we usually know what they meant when they request this to us. But there was a time when a guest told me he wants "Casabank". Wasn't sure then if he wanted to get some cash in a bank. LOL.
We all know that "Anak" is the most famous Filipino song internationally. But sometimes we do get requests like "Anuck", "Anna", or they'd say "Anax". I'm sure Freddie Aguilar wouldn't like his song to be "an ax". LOL. And sometimes, they just request a song by the artist named Freddie Aguilera. Related to Christina Aguilera, eh? Wahahaha!
I remember one time, a yuppie came up to and asked if I can sing a song from Nojo. It was out first set and we were playing in the lobby, so I thought he was requesting for a dance song from Modjo so I immediately apologized to him. Then he said, "Anything! Maybe 'Don't Know Why' or 'Come Away With Me'?". Ahhhh, Norah Jones. That was way too slang, man!
OH MAN! These funny memories made me laugh while reminiscing them. There are a lot more bloopers that I can't think of right now so I'm pretty sure this post will be updated once I remember them - or once there are new bloopers. So keep on checking, aight? :)

OMG i can't stop laughing reading this blog! im crying hahahaha
bwahahahaha!!! panalo sa mga request sis!!! Keep posting, I love reading your blog! Lab shu! :)

The early days of the 2003 Iraq War were bound to be a graveyard for military and political reputations, given the misperceptions and misjudgments behind America's ill-fated adventure in regime change and nation-building.

Haste risked casualties and defeats at the hands of a formidable opponent like Robert E. Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia. But his crowning achievement was bad generalship in Korea. McClellan was a superb organizer, a West Point-trained engineer who did much to build the Union army almost from scratch. But there was something that not even the factories of New York and Chicago could produce, and that was time. We all know the type: the Commander deck you hate seeing at table, and the one you target from the start. But Gates could have doomed the American Revolution.

I wanted to write a quick note to say thank you for all your efforts with my daughters' buffet spread. All of the food was so delicious and all your hard work and organization really made our day so much easier and relaxed. The princess cake that you made was greatly appreciated by Emma and she was so excited when she blew out the candles and everyone commented on how good it tasted that I wanted to pass it off as my own handy work!
I will of course see you again in the future for our next big event.
Thank you very much for the cake. Dennis was very happy, he said it was a beautiful cake and a very, very tasty one! The size was also impressive. We have seen the picture and it is a beautiful cake. However, knowing that our son also found it beautiful made us very happy.

Moving your corporate office to a new building can be more challenging than moving house. Not only do you still have a business to run employees to oversee and client to take care of, you also have to plan and organise an office relocation. There are many elements to moving an office. Files, computers, desks, the larger your office, the more challenging the move will be.
Avoid planning your move during peak time of the year. Most people move during the warmer months so moving companies will be booked and busy. Many employees may also be on holidays with their families over the warmers months with school and Christmas holidays. If you can't avoid moving during peak times, make sure you book as far in advance as possible. Also avoid planning your office relocation during public and school holidays.
Although you don't want productivity to suffer, moving midweek is your best choice. However some body corporates may not allow moving mid-week as it can be a disruption to the rest of those who also work in the building. However you will have a better chance at hiring a moving company as mid-week is off peak and your employees are more likely to help out during the move. Moving the office during the weekend won't go well with employees, especially if you expect everyone to help out.
Mid month is the best time of the month to move. Most businesses are at their busiest at the beginning and towards the end of the month. Moving at these times is going to create unnecessary stress within the company with workers feeling pressured and overworked.
Consider the season when you decide to relocate your office. Depending on which part of the country you are living, summer time can bring cyclones, heavy rains and thunderstorms and winter can be a lot milder. Other places may be extremely cold and wet during winter months, so this may make shifting the office more hazardous. No matter when you move, always keep an eye on weather forecasts and prepare for any possible rain and ensure your office electronics and other equipment are sufficiently protected from the elements.

Q: Create multidimensional array based on value I've spent hours trying to find the answer to this question, but I'm struggling. I'm reasonably familiar with PHP and the various in-built functions, and can build a complex foreach() loop to do this, but I thought I'd ask to see if anyone has a smarter solution to my problem.
I have an array in this form, Now I want to convert this into multidimensional based on list_id matched on next instance.I  tried this solution but not worked well https://stackoverflow.com/a/65042103/4626270.

        'qty' => $record['qty']
    ];
}
var_export(
    array_values($grouped)
);

Removing the condition will also deliver the same result; it will just keep silently overwriting the two associative elements.
$grouped = [];
foreach ($records as $record) {
    $grouped[$record['list_id']]['list_id'] = $record['list_id'];
    $grouped[$record['list_id']]['order_list_name'] = $record['order_list_name'];
    $grouped[$record['list_id']][] = [
        'list_id' => $record['list_id'],
        'product_id' => $product->getId(),
        'product_name' => $product->getName(),
        'sku' => $product->getSku(),
        'qty' => $record['qty']
    ];
}
var_export(
    array_values($grouped)

Three Ramapo Seniors Inspiring Others to Make a Positive Impact in Their Community
Grace Lim, Life Editor
In the midst of stress from school, work, and responsibilities at home—not to mention a global pandemic—life can feel overwhelming and difficult at times. When we feel the sometimes insurmountable pressure of our everyday lives, navigating the negativity can be challenging alone. And for many individuals, the COVID-19 virus has only intensified these feelings. Others, like myself, may be feeling uninspired, craving creativity and motivation in their routine since the pandemic first began early last year.
In hopes of inspiring students to cultivate their sources of inspiration, Carlos Chacin Ferro embarked on a mission to foster positivity in the Ramapo community and beyond to connect us all by the power of sharing our unique, personal stories. Carlos, along with co-founders Sophia Vernieri and Ethan Bravo, created Beechatty as an online space to support one another and promote personal growth. Carlos expressed, "I take much pride in being an active participant in giving back to the community that has supported me. I understand that it is easy for individuals to fall into a negative state of mind under the present conditions. [But] with that said, positivity is a choice." Mahima Shah ('22) agrees that the struggles brought on by the pandemic have been unprecedented and demanding: "For me, along with so many others, COVID has created a lot of extra stress and has been very overwhelming, so I love that there's a place where people can feel supported and hopeful."
Carlos, a current Senior Ambassador and former "Heroes and Cool Kids" ambassador, is not new to taking initiatives and leading his community at Ramapo. According to Carlos, "I want to spread inspiration as a way to help and support others, spark creativity, and make a positive impact in our community. I believe that inspiration can lead to a happy and positive mindset, which is the key to success and personal growth." With Beechatty, Carlos aspires to help individuals "increase [their] chances of success, whether academic, emotional, social, athletic, or any other aspect of an individual's life."
