How To Stream A Concert For Charlottesville If You Can't Make It To Virginia For The Star-Studded Event

Shortly after racially-motivated violence reared its head at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August, Dave Matthews Band announced they would be holding the A Concert For Charlottesville to benefit the community. The star-studded concert will boast performances from Ariana Grande, Pharrell Williams, Justin Timberlake, and more, and is set to take place at University of Virgina's Scott Stadium on Sunday, Sept. 24 at 5:55 p.m. ET. For any people out there who won't be able to attend the concert in person, there are obviously other ways for fans to show support — and how to stream A Concert for Charlottesville straight from your laptop is super easy.
Tickets to attend A Concert for Charlottesville are officially no longer being distributed, but any fans still interested in watching and supporting the cause can head over to musicandunity.tumblr.com at 5:55 p.m. EST to tune in to the show. Of course, the concert's official Tumblr page isn't the only place you'll be able to watch it. Organizers of the show announced Wednesday that, in addition to Tumblr, fans all around the world will also be able to stream A Concert for Charlottesville (free of charge) on other social media platforms like YouTube and Facebook, and even via The Huffington Post's own live-stream.
The benefit concert is being organized by Dave Matthews Band, as Charlottesville is actually the band's hometown. According to the event's official website, fans should expect to see performances from the concert hosts themselves as well as Chris Stapleton, The Roots, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Cage the Elephant, and more special guests that have yet to be announced.
Throughout the last two weeks, tickets to the event were being distributed upon special requests through an online system, and they were free for all members of the Charlottesville and University of Virginia communities. Though the tickets weren't priced, concert attendees were still encouraged to donate to the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation's Concert for Charlottesville Fund that would benefit victims of the events that took place in the city last month, families of said victims, and first responders.

Last month in Charlottesville, white nationalists gathered in the streets of the city to protest the removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. The "Unite the Right" rally, as it was called, was held on the weekend of Aug. 11, and it sparked nationwide controversy. The rally's attendees were seen marching through the city's streets carrying torches. Meanwhile, groups of counter-protesters also eventually showed up in the city as a form of resistance, and violent clashes between the groups occurred before the rally could even officially start. Virginia's governor Terry McAuliffe declared a state of emergency "to aid state response to violence at Alt-Right rally in Charlottesville," while the University of Virginia announced the cancellation of all events taking place on the school's campus for that day.
Celebrities and public figures alike took to social media during the time to voice their opinions on the matter, most of which were condemning the actions of the white supremacists who planned the rally. Out of all of the responses, perhaps the most notable one of them all was Barack Obama's response. The former president tweeted out, "No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion," alongside a photo of himself smiling at four children. He continued his thoughts in a thread, though his initial tweet quoting Nelson Mandela quickly became the number one most liked tweet in Twitter's history.
Given the outrage that the events in Charlottesville sparked last month, Dave Matthew's Band's benefit concert will surely be a hit for a good cause. If you need a bit of a musical pick-me-up after the last month, then this is definitely an event you won't want to miss.

Nothing beats a stroll through a beautiful, fragrant lavender field. Perhaps it is because it's a scent much associated with our grandmothers that it brings us such comfort. In the language of flowers, lavender has many meanings, but devotion and compassion are among the most well known.
Lavender fields are at their best in June and July so make sure you make time for a visit each year. You will leave these majestic fields with a feeling of such joy at being surrounded by the vibrant lilac, busy bees and the sense of calm that it brings. Definitely good for the soul.
Lavender has been used through the ages for lots of different reasons. Lavender's Latin name was taken from lavare which means to wash. And women used to dry their laundry over lavender bushes to fragrance the household linens.
Our Tussie Mussie Keepsake candle contains lavender among other essential oils, including rosemary and bergamot. It delivers a wonderful breath of fresh, clean air in your home and makes a wonderful gift for a treasured friend.
← Mum's are amazing. Don't forget to treat her this Sunday with a Tussie Mussie Blossom candle.

Water War Continues
by Tim Ravndal | Aug 4, 2021 | Featured 1, Helena News | 0 comments

By Tim Ravndal
Needing to provide enforcement in control over water is a long running battle in Montana dating back to Territorial Days. At the turning of the century when mining and logging were fully engaged in providing products in the building of America, the water resources were the main mode of transporting goods to market. The battle of who controlled that water has raged on.
The battle for water continues in the Helena valley. Residents of a subdivision have locked horns with the company that provides their water. Intervention in this dispute was brought before the Montana Public Service Commission to provide an answer to the problem of distribution of water.
The Public Service Commission agreed with the hundreds of residents of the subdivision that the contractor has failed to provide an adequate amount of water. Trying to come up with a resolution on the dispute, PSC commissioners could not not agree on a fully effective answer to the problems brought before them. The commission requires a majority vote to pass a decision affecting the citizens of Montana.
"The PSC generally regulates private, investor-owned natural gas, electric, telephone, water and private sewer companies doing business in Montana. In addition, the PSC regulates certain kinds of motor carriers, including garbage trucks and passenger motor carriers. The PSC also oversees rail and pipeline safety regulations in the state."
PSC Website
PSC being charged with the task of seeking resolution on behalf of the citizens and residents of the subdivision results in a contentious decision process. One of the PSC commissioners at a meeting on August 3rd 2021, made a couple of suggestions where one was in part approved, while the other failed to garner any support.
The control of water, specifically in restricting residents from the use of water for irrigating, has placed the residents in full turmoil when it comes to caring for their property. The company that runs the water system in the subdivision has placed a full restriction on the use of water to care for lawns and other uses not in the confines of the home back in early July 2021.
The one proposal was to compromise with the residents providing time restrictions on alternate days through the summer for watering. The commission agreed with that directive and it passed but with objection from the subdivision owners.
Commissioners did disagree with the strong arm suggestion proposed that would have placed heavy fines on anyone not complying with the restrictions. That included a proposal that would penalize the subdivision owner if they failed to provide the needed water for the subdivision.
One of the residents claimed he was hauling water from the McDonald Pass spring by the bucket full just to keep his trees in his yard alive. The restrictions on water use in the subdivision brings forward an open door to authority over the people that believe they own their property.
The subdivision authorities claim that the residents will not comply with restrictions on watering so opening that door is a danger to the system shutting down due to lack of water. Pumping ability to supply the water is also an issue that was pointed out where the need to move forward with care as the system has been on a backup pump since mid July. There is fear that if the system is overloaded, the backup pump will fail and there would be no water for anything.
The reality of a control mechanism in place through a home owners association is at play here. Each resident in a subdivision that is governed by a home owners association is required to comply with those directives without exception.
The plot thickens here as the attorney representing the subdivision owner is Jonathan Motl who previously was at ground zero in political battles here as the director of the political practice commission. Since subdivisions have become a political creation in communities everywhere the political oversight is in every home even if they do not agree.
This battle has been ongoing and is likely to continue into at least the near future. With the subdivision already in battle over rates, there is currently a case that has reached the Montana Supreme Court.
So…the battle continues over water in the Helena valley. The competition for space and resources has pushed residents to levels where neighbors are no longer able to communicate.

As the interface of Microsoft Word 2007 is quite different from previous versions of Microsoft Word, you may be confused how to navigate the Ribbon and menus with the keyboard.
With previous versions, pressing the Alt key on the keyboard allowed you to navigate the various menus. Then, it was as simple as pressing the correct shortcut key to activate a given function.
From here, enter the shortcut key or keys to activate a desired command. For example, note that the commands for "Watermark", "Page Color", "Page Border", and the "Paragraph" dialog box all start with the letter "P". To activate the desired command you should key in the two-character keyboard shortcut.

Are Ann Coulter's Eyelashes Real or Fake? [This Just in]
Eliza Barlow
Ann Coulter is certainly a polarizing figure. She's gone toe-to-toe with activists, pundits, and her take-no-prisoners political commentary endears her to some while others regard her as persona non grata. Either way you slice it, this blonde beauty has what it takes to get people talking. However, the biggest question on our minds isn't what's in her latest op-ed or when's her next guest appearance.
We've been racking our brains to figure out if her eyelashes are real or fake. Her politics aside, Ann Coulter is always wonderfully coiffed and attired. This also goes for her lashes, which are not only voluminous but have great length. Though you won't see her bat an eye in an interview, her gorgeous lashes are flawless. We've compiled a list of hints we think will lead us to the correct assertion. Read on to get a heads up on what we think about her stunning lashes.
Are Ann Coulter's Eyelashes the Real Deal?
The evidence: A high school photo. In an undated high school photo, Ann Coulter is sporting some seriously thick lashes. They look real as they are close to the lash line and blend in perfectly. Coulter has incredibly hooded eyes, a trait that makes it a little harder to discern if her lashes are real or not. However, in this high school photo, we can see that her lashes toward the end of her eye seem to naturally fill out. She also has lash lines that don't start well before they should or after (the middle of the lid). Besides that, beauty experts agree that during the '70s and '80s, (Ann Coulter was in high school from about '75 to '79) fake eyelashes had tended to fall out of favor. The look during Coulter's high school days would have been all about natural beauty. Makeup was light and breezy, and an emphasis was on lipstick and blush rather than lashes. There were exceptions to this rule, but as a teen growing up in the '70s, we think that Coulter may have gone with the flow. Verdict: Real The Evidence: This photo from Time Magazine's Top 100 Influencers (2010) Ann Coulter has walked some of the country's most distinguished red carpets, including this one for Time Magazine. Coulter stayed true to the aesthetic she picked up in high school and, though dressed to the nines, boasts a light, dewy makeup look. Her top lashes look full and voluminous, though unnaturally so. Her left eye looks a bit skewed, as if the eyelash strip may have been applied a bit incorrectly. The lashes themselves don't look completely blended and are too dark for light blonde tresses. Also, her bottom lashes look a bit sparse. Lashes naturally become thinner with age and we think that Coulter may have boosted her lash look with false eyelashes on top. Verdict: Fake eyelashes In this photo, we can see that Ann is au-naturel – except for her lashes. The top lashes look much fuller than the bottom lashes. However, an up-close look gives us a glimpse of her lash line, which doesn't look to have a false strip. The curl at the top looks a bit exaggerated, suggesting that though she isn't wearing falsies per se, she may be sporting lash extensions. Eyelash extensions are often more natural-looking than false eyelash strips and easily last six to eight weeks. The lashes on the other side really tell the tale. They look exceptionally long and thick, in contrast to her left side, which looks a bit more spotty, a sure sign that she may have had extensions put on. Verdict: Eyelash extensions Evidence: This undated photo In this undated photo, Ann Coulter is makeup-free but is sporting gorgeous lashes. Her lashes have the tell-tale exaggerated curl. She doesn't have anything on her lash line, though her bottom lashes look to be more filled in, possibly as a result of mascara. Verdict: Possible lash extensions Evidence: An updated, close-up photo In this last photo, we can see that she's wearing intensely lush false eyelashes. Her lash line is obscured, and it looks as if she has a black band across her lash line (a sign of a falsie). She is also wearing a dark liner above her eyes. This is often a sign that false eyelashes have been applied, as blending the adhesive often works better with a liner. She also has tremendous curl and her bottom lashes aren't as sparse, a possible indication that she has an application of bottom cluster lash strips. Her lash line on top also only gets thicker toward the middle of the eye, a clear sign she's wearing falsies. Verdict: False eyelashes
So….Are Ann Coulter's Eyelashes Real or Fake? The Final Determination!
We feel that though Ann Coulter's natural eyelashes are great, they aren't always on display. Instead, we think that's she has utilized false eyelashes on many occasions to achieve a cool, classic look with soft, natural-looking makeup. On other occasions, she may have gone without the false eyelash strips. Instead, she may have opted for the route of eyelash extensions, which are a wonderful option for those who don't want the bother of applying a strip. Eyelash extension wearers can get also get a quick enhancement (most extension processes last no more than two hours) that lasts for weeks. It's convenient, easy, and wearers don't have to worry about pools or showers and are lash ready for any event. If you'd like to become adept at spotting lash extensions, look for sparseness amongst the lashes as well as unusual length or color. Eyelash extension wearers may also have an exaggerated curl pattern along their lashes. Keep in mind that eyelash extensions have a few choices as far as curl is concerned. Wearers can opt for a J-curl (curls that face downward) all the way across the spectrum to L-Lift (extreme upward curl). Not all curls will be the same for everyone. Signs of a false eyelash application can also include a thick black band along the lash line as well as very thick lashes. Another thing to look out for is if the lash line begins well before you'd expect it to or well after. If the lashes are fluttering a bit more than they should, especially if there is a gentle breeze afoot, then it's safe to assume the lashes are falsies. While it's fun to speculate how someone may have gotten their lush lashes, remember that there's no shame in wearing lash extension or false eyelashes. It is a great way to change up your look and can make you feel wonderfully confident in a matter of minutes. Although we're pretty confident in answering whether Ann Coulter's eyelashes are real or fake, we still think her beautiful lashes are a wonderful complement to her look on camera.

Champion Australia mare Winx wins final race
Sydney - Champion Australian mare Winx bid farewell on Saturday by winning her 33rd race in a row, ending her glittering career on a high with an amazing four-year unbeaten streak.
The world's top-rated turf horse sprinted home to claim her third consecutive Queen Elizabeth Stakes over 2000m, in front of 50,000 boisterous fans at Royal Randwick in Sydney.
The win stretched to 25 her unsurpassed number of Group 1 victories - the highest class of thoroughbred racing which attracts the best horses and biggest prize money.
In Australia, they include the Melbourne Cup, Cox Plate and Caulfield Cup.
She was hot favourite and with long-time jockey Hugh Bowman in the saddle there was only ever going to be one winner, cementing her place in horse-racing history alongside fellow Australian greats Phar Lap and Black Caviar.
In her usual style, Winx held back until the final bend before powering to the finish line to deafening roars from the crowd.
"It's over, there's mixed emotions and I'm so proud to be part of it," said Bowman.
"It's an amazing crowd here. She has captured the hearts of people all around the world."
So confident was one punter that he bet Aus$550 000 to get a Aus$33 000 return on the win.
At seven years of age most horses have already retired, but meticulously managed throughout her career by trainer Chris Waller Winx kept going.
"We didn't expect her to be coming this far and her winning sequence, so I've been prepared for the last 12 months for her to be retired," said Waller ahead of the race, who prefers to sit alone and watch when Winx is racing.
"For whatever reason, she keeps running as fast as she has been for four years. But the day has finally come."
Her final run gave Waller his 100th Group 1 winner.
Winx, who has banked more than Aus$26 million in prize money, will now head to the breeding barn in what could be another hugely lucrative career.
Experts predict each of her foals could fetch more than a million dollars. So sought-after is her bloodline that a niece sold for Aus$750 000 this year.
All told, Winx won 37 races. She began her career with three straight victories but then suffered a lean patch as a three-year-old before launching into her astounding unbeaten streak four years ago.
She smashed legendary sprinter Black Caviar's Australian win record last August when making it 26 in a row, and surpassed retired northern hemisphere jumper Hurricane Fly's then-record 22 Group 1 victories at the Chipping Norton Stakes last month.
Such is her legend that Winx has become more than just a horse in Australia.
The Sydney Morning Herald called her "perfection on four legs".
"Whether she wins or loses her 33rd on the trot, Winx will be remembered as racing's Bradman, an idea of perfection who transcended the boundary of sport and became a paragon," the newspaper said, referring to cricketing great Donald Bradman.
Legendary Australian sports broadcaster Bruce McAvaney said ahead of the race that her farewell sat comfortably alongside any of the great Australian sporting moments he had called or witnessed in his long career.
"Purely in racing terms, I reckon it's the most anticipated race and raceday in my lifetime," he said before hosting Channel Seven's coverage.
"In terms of the general sporting public, Winx has gone way beyond being just a figure in horse racing - she is a major sporting figure in the country.
"Winx is one of those rare thoroughbreds - Phar Lap was one and Black Caviar and Makybe Diva got there as well - that have transcended the sport and got into the fabric of the nation."

Q: R: How to build a SQL using table, column and schema names from a dataframe? I want to run the same SQL on a stack of tables, columns and db schemata. I have a dataframe similar to this:
schema <- c('schema_1','schema_1','schema_1', 'schema_2', 'schema_2')
table <- c('table_1','table_1','table_2', 'table_3', 'table_3')
column <- c('A','B','V','X','Y')
df <- data.frame(schema, table, column)

I want to run a simple SQL with the first rows of a column like this, on all rows of the df:
library(postGIStools)
get_postgis_query(con_ent_gis, "select column from schema.table LIMIT 6")

As far I understand I could write something similar to
get_postgis_query(con_ent_gis, "select df$column[i] from df$schema[i].df$table[i] LIMIT 6")

in a for Loop, wright? Or does any package or function as apply, lapply.. do something similar, without the need of a Loop?

A: Simply use paste (or its non-space wrapper, paste0) to build a vector of SQL statements since all objects are same length. Then, pass vector into lapply for iterative query calls for a list of returned objects.
# BUILD VECTOR OF SQL STATEMENTS
sqls <- paste0("select ", df$column, " from ", df$schema, ".", df$table, " LIMIT 6")
sqls
# [1] "select A from schema_1.table_1 LIMIT 6"
# [2] "select B from schema_1.table_1 LIMIT 6"
# [3] "select V from schema_1.table_2 LIMIT 6"
# [4] "select X from schema_2.table_3 LIMIT 6"
# [5] "select Y from schema_2.table_3 LIMIT 6"

# ITERATIVELY RUN EACH QUERY TO RETURN LIST OF OBJECTS
data_list <- lapply(sqls, function(s) get_postgis_query(con_ent_gis, s))

I love the Callaghan brothers books. Do you know the order of who is left and I think i read you are going to try to put one a month out right? Thanks so much for this series. Really enjoy it.
Yes, my plan is to release one per month. They are all written, but require editing, clean-up, covers, etc. before they're fit for print.
I am so hooked on the Callaghan brothers! I have been desperately looking for a series I can sink into, so thank you for giving me that! I look forward to reading the rest of your books too. I see that Sean is next...do you have an estimated release date yet?
Stacy Perfect, I will keep watching. Thanks!
It's true. Well, kind of.

A tax audit can be ordered by the Australian Tax Office if your income reporting or tax affairs are not managed appropriately. An ATO tax audit or review is performed when the ATO cannot verify or identifies discrepancies in the information you provided when reporting your income, assets and expenditure. Modern technology, including data-matching tools and the increasing information processing capacity of the tax office means that more tax audits are carried out each year. The ATO has a legal capacity to perform tax audits where it has reasonable grounds for doing so. It can also obtain information from other parties including employers, financial institutions, and business suppliers or customers as part of.
A tax audit can easily be avoided by ensuring that your income and assets are calculated and reported correctly. In many cases a tax audit is conducted when the ATO simply cannot accurately verify the information you provide them, so it is always best to ensure that this information is prepared and submitted by a qualified accountant or expert in auditing accounting.
Kingston & Knight Audit can assist you throughout the tax audit process by advising you about your rights and responsibilities and providing investigative / forensic audit services if required. Our main way of providing assistance is to improve your communication and cooperation with the ATO throughout the tax audit process, potentially reducing any subsequent penalty you receive.
The tax audit process can involve only a review, and / or a complete audit of your finances by the tax office. There are important differences between an audit and a review, however it is worth noting that both audits and reviews are legally classified as a 'tax audit' giving the ATO additional rights when either process is carried out.
When conducting verification checks, tax reviews and tax audits, the ATO makes it clear that they will seek and respect your cooperation. Cooperating with the tax office during these procedures will be of significant benefit to you, even if the audit finds you to be in breach of your obligations. Therefore, it is recommended that you obtain the assistance of an auditing accounting firm, such as Kingston & Knight Audit, to assist you during the tax audit process and ensure that you do not face any unnecessary penalties.
A tax review is performed when the ATO has calculated a risk associated with errors in your reporting, or that there is a possibility you are not meeting your tax obligations. The tax review process then involves more detailed information being sought about your finances and income-producing activities. The ATO also conducts tax reviews to obtain information about targeted or emerging activities and industries of interest to the tax office.
It is important to note that the tax office considers any activity on your part to identify errors in your reporting during the review process, with the possibility of 'significant reduction' of relevant penalties. For this reason, it is vital that you obtain professional assistance following the commencement of a tax review.
The tax audit process begins when the tax office contacts you (usually by telephone) to arrange a time to meet and discuss the audit process. This meeting will cover the scope and nature of the audit, including period under audit, the audit hypothesis, information sought by auditors to test hypotheses, how the auditors will conduct their investigation, and your rights and obligations throughout the tax audit process.
The tax office will communicate with you throughout the audit process and keep you informed of any relevant developments during the audit. For example, if the auditors decide to broaden the scope of the audit considering newly-identified information, you will be notified in writing. Throughout the tax audit you will be expected to act cooperatively and to assist the auditors in conducting their investigation.
Kingston & Knight auditors Melbourne will assist you in maintaining a cooperative, communicative, and compliant position throughout the ATO tax audit procedure. Any penalty imposed following the conclusion of a tax audit is likely to be reduced if you have actively cooperated throughout the audit or review process, and assisted auditors by conducting your own financial audit with which to supplement, and if required, challenge, the conclusions of the tax audit. To learn more about what Kingston & Knight auditors Melbourne can do to assist you during a tax audit or review, contact us today on 1800 283 471 or via email at audit@kingstonknight.com.au.


Pacific Coast Banking School gives students an advantage in the financial services industry and empowers them to meet today's challenges, while looking toward the future.
Pacific Coast Banking School (PCBS) celebrates a diverse student body. Students represent both big banks (54%) and community banks (42%), as well as regulatory organizations (4%), and are also diverse in race and ethnicity and educational background. Students appreciate the diversity and feel that the mix of perspectives adds to the richness of their experience.
PCBS is the most rigorous of all the graduate banking schools across the country and is a three-year program with an annual, two-week resident session. All students must participate in each of the three years, as our coordinated curriculum builds upon itself and is specific to the financial services industry. Not only does PCBS' three-year program foster great learning, but it also builds deep and cohesive relationships.
Students at PCBS are in classes that are taught from beginning to end (one or two weeks, depending on the class) by the same instructor. This approach greatly enhances learning and retention of concepts.
PCBS students complete inter-session assignments in five core classes and also write an originally researched thesis. We are proud of the rigor of the PCBS program and view the inter-session work as important and necessary for mastery of the core concepts required of today's banking leaders.
PCBS has two capstone programs in the third year, LEADERSIM® and Bank Management Simulation, which bring the students' entire PCBS experience into focus. The PCBS Leadership Program is strategically designed as a coordinated curriculum, with the first two years taught by Dr. Patrick Bettin, an internationally known expert on leadership. LEADERSIM® is held during the first week of the students' third and final resident session, while the Bank Management Simulation runs for the full two weeks. Faculty members teaching these two simulation courses work together to provide an integrated educational experience. Students work and compete with one another in teams of five as they experience what it is like to run their own banks. These same teams work together in their LEADERSIM® class to apply leadership techniques to challenges that arise during the Bank Management Simulation. PCBS graduates receive a distinguished Leadership Certificate from the prestigious Foster School of Business at the University of Washington.
PCBS facilitates networking opportunities for students by having them live in dorms on campus. Alumni reflect that the dorm experience, though a change from their day-to-day lives, fostered deep bonds and lifelong friendships.

Ventilators Destined For Barbados Allegedly Seized By The United States
By Jamaica Live Medias | April 6, 2020 | 0
Twenty ventilators that were sent to Barbados by an unnamed philanthropist were allegedly seized without explanation by the United States, Barbadian Health Minister Lt.-Col. Jeffrey Bostic said.
According to Barbados Today,during a press conference at Ilaro Court, Bostic it was revealed that the ventilators donated to the Barbados Government as an act of philanthropy were barred from exportation.
"They were seized in the United States. They are paid for, but seized, so we are trying to see exactly what is going to transpire there," Minister Bostic disclosed.
A ventilator is seen at the New York City Emergency Management Warehouse (photo credit: REUTERS)
"But I remind you that ventilators are one of the most in-demand items in the world today and Barbados is merely wrestling with the other 203 countries and territories around the world seeking to secure as many of these pieces of equipment as possible," he added.
According to The Jerusalem Post, though the philanthropist was not identified, Bostic denied earlier reports that it was Barbadian singer-songwriter Rihanna, who had pledged to send several ventilators to her home country. Five of those ventilators are still slated to arrive next week, he said according to the Herald.
Barbados is one of several countries to have accused the Trump administration of unfairly diverting and securing medical equipment essential in the fight against coronavirus, including ventilators, protective gear and N95 respirator masks.
Also Friday, a report in The Guardian said that a shipment of medical equipment bound for France from Shanghigh was taken by the US instead. In this case, the French official – identified as Valérie Pécresse, president of the hard-hit Île-de-France region – claimed that the US outbid the French by offering three times the price and offering to pay upfront.
"I can't do that. I'm spending taxpayers' money and I can only pay on delivery having checked the quality," Pécresse told BFMTV.
See The Jerusalem Post for all the countries that blamed the United States of interfering with their ability to get equipment to fight COVID-19.

Dunbar's Tennis team recently finished their Region 11 Tournament at Henry Clay and Top Seed Tennis Club.

The tiny house movement is by all means spectacular. If you're on Pinterest, or if you're a DIY enthusiast then chances are these remarkable small spaces have popped up on your radar, or even on your telly in the form of George Clarke's Amazing Spaces.
Micro living is simply, living in a tiny home. Back in 2015, this trend was pretty darn popular. However, the trend never really hit the United Kingdom.
As the size of a property increases, so does the price and the costs associated. Conversely, the smaller the home – the smaller the cost, and bills. A 23m2 home can not only accommodate all modern necessities – it's much cheaper, there's usually no/ or a very small mortgage, it's super easy (and cheap) to heat up, and you're more or less forced to live a clutter free life.
Micro living started out as part of the slow living trend. This 'life philosophy' is essentially about building memories and taking a step back from a busy life, instead of spending money on frivolous things and always being 'online'.
Small living isn't for everyone, and never will be. But there are some healthy takeaways from this obsession with space and some pretty impressive tips on utilising storage that are worth taking away regardless of the size of your home!
Living in such a confined space forces you to be creative with you interior and your storage. If you're not ready to jump the trend and sell your three storage home just yet, then here's a few things you can learn from the people that have taken the plunge already.
Doors take up a lot of space. The swing of a normal door takes up ~1m2. If you live in a two bedroom flat, you'll probably have between 6-8 doors. That's 6-8 m2 of good space that needs left clear for the doors to function properly.
The tiny house and space connoisseurs have found a way to get around this waste of space, using pocket doors. By sliding either into or along the wall instead of swinging open, they're leaving the ~100° swing space free.
If you use mirrors well, they can easily make your room look larger. By having a focal point and angling your mirrors towards it it gives an illusion of depth.
Mirrors also reflect both artificial and natural light, so helps the room look brighter.
If you think about it, a normal wall is a bit of an abrupt end to a room. The mirror can feel as if it's expanding the room even further.
If you're living in a smaller space then it's important that there is plenty of natural light. If you do not have any access to natural light, then you can supplement your lamps with lighting fixtures.
If you want to live in a smaller space, you need to have some serious decluttering skills. By keeping clean lines in mind and taking a minimalistic approach to designing the space, you can strip away things that you do not need on a day to day basis.
The fewer things you have and the brighter you can make the room, the more spacious it will seem.
When moving from a bigger place to a smaller, there will inevitably be items and keepsakes that you do not want to get rid off. And that's OK!
If you've got a lot of things that have sentimental value, then see if you can liaise with someone who has a loft or rent a storage space for keeping these items safe and sound.
Scaling down and throwing away things you do not use is a healthy exercise, but it's also important to keep memories and possessions that mean a lot to you.
With a tiny house, you're not building by the square foot, you're building by the square inch.
Double duty furniture can save a lot of space in a smaller home. This can be anything from great under bed storage to drawers coming out of the steps in the staircase to a sofa table that turns into a dining table.
If you can pack several pieces of interior, furniture and function into one – you'll be saving a lot of space. It's not complicated.
If you think in height as well as breadth and length, you can really take advantage of the space.
This is especially useful if you've got high ceilings. Say you live in a studio flat, rising the bed up can both create a lot of useful storage underneath as well as make the room seem bigger.
If your space is tight, then getting the bed off the floor and creating a ½ floor can almost split the room into two.
Do you live in a small apartment? Leave your tips or gripes in the comment below.


You've just put down your last drink. Whether you are in a rehab or getting sober through meetings, you are probably wondering how you will make it through the next minute or hour without craving a drink. If we knew what was ahead of us, would we be as likely to try? There's a possibility your craving will take time to diminish. The good news is, you may start to feel better about yourself having put down the drink. Feeling you've accomplished an amazing feat can motivate you to stay sober.
Yes, putting down the drink is quite an accomplishment—maybe even the accomplishment of a lifetime. Don't worry, the craving can and will go away the more time you give to sobriety. Let's look at a few techniques that may help your stress level, anxiety and fears as you continue your heroic path. We use the word heroic because in essence you are taking heroic measures to save your life.
Becoming an observer can broaden your thoughts and nourish your spirits in recovery. It can open your creative channels, and parts of yourself to a kind of wonder you may not have felt since you were a kid. Even if you live inland, you can still benefit from the ocean by listening to audio recordings of the surf splashing ashore and pulling pebbles through the sand. You can also visualize a walk on the beach. Go there in your mind, feel the warm sand, feel the palpable freedom you've given yourself by getting and staying sober, be curious about what you want your sober life to look like.

Tips On How To Earn Cash On-line


Xu Yangyi's spiritual sense far surpassed Chu Zhaonan's. Chu Zhaonan skimmed around with his spiritual sense. Even if he was Chu Tianyi's grandson, his face couldn't help but change somewhat. There were at least thirty terribly fearsome spiritual senses, like grand mountains and vast seas, shrouding their entire location!
Foundation Establishment spiritual sense! In less than ten minutes, thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators had already received news and came! Like a cage, their spiritual senses were monitoring the present grounds!
Chu Zhaonan exhaled heavily. Forcefully nodding, he turned around and left. The inside of the room settled. Xu Yangyi didn't care one bit about the spiritual senses outside. He lit a cigarette and sunk into rumination.
Great opportunity was likewise accompanied by great danger. He'd pondered many, many ways on how to reveal the Dao of Pills, but he couldn't wait. Daomaster Floatingcloud's Damocles Sword hung high over his head, and he'd entered seclusion for two consecutive years. If he didn't come out with the Pill Dao, it wouldn't make his reputation outstanding and cause all the Core Formation masters to take heart and interest. The execution of this mission was to take down Floatingcloud's sword. Once he succeeded, the sword would forever be removed!
Bang! Following a crunching noise, Lu Gandang's face reddened, and he sprayed out blood as he flew back several meters.
"Useless trash!" Thousandedge's roar reverberated through the room. He gnashed his teeth rigidly, his complexion ashen. This loss of face… This extreme humiliation! How could I support this trash in everything today?!
"I beg your forgiveness!" Lu Gandang dropped to his knees and said. His nose and mouth were filled with blood, yet he dared not cough at all.
"Scram!" Thousandedge bellowed angrily. An invisible air wave of surging spiritual sense was enough to blow Lu Gandang several meters outside the room door! Soon after, he slammed into a wall with a rumble. This time, his seven apertures were flowing with blood and even his qi sea was aching dully. Thousandedge had truly just wanted to cripple him!
"Xu Yangyi…" In his office, Thousandedge deeply bit his lip and shut his eyes in terrible vexation. Who would've thought that a Qi Condensation insect could become so troublesome these days?
Lu Gandang hadn't left but instead continued kneeling at the doorway. He allowed the blood in his mouth to spill freely and dared not utter a word.
"Understood!" Lu Gandang tightly clenched his teeth and answered resolutely. On the ground, his fist squeezed into a deathly pallor.
Ten days passed by quickly. It seemed there were ten great invisible hands concealing everything. In these ten days, there was no one that shouldn't have known about all that transpired at the Xingtian Legion's inauguration ceremony. However, all those who should've known were aware.
There existed nothing else but the three men seated on the three armchairs and Foundation Establishment spiritual sense that swept over the whole audience like an ocean wave! It caused all the Qi Condensation cultivators besides these men to dare not speak a single word!
"Is there anything else? What about our commercial properties in Tianfeng City?" At the same time in a famous building in Tianfeng City, dozens of people were sitting at a very long conference table. Those who were unaware believed them all to be opening the floor with a great assembly related to their company's future. None could look upon the qi inside which had almost solidified because of the raging emotions within the room.
A data sheet was placed before everyone. A man at the head seat glanced at it, and his entire face scrunched up.
Yet this was still just the surface amount!
No one answered. The other clans were like this but weren't they the same, as well? Things were stirring into action… All the clans with the qualifications to know this information had all begun to move. None would bother haggling over current deficits because all of them knew that the re-emergence of the Dao of Pills, this grand affair, had roused not only mere Foundation Establishment seniors.
In the same vein, the ordinarily unseen Core Formation ancestors, high and lofty like clouds, we're arriving in their arcane chariots!
Each and everyone of these names were akin to great stone steles. The clans simply had no way to compete against these ancestors. To them, the only chance was to smash down with money! Smash down until the pill master nodded!
In Panshan City, a few of the Xingtian Legion's personnel were already busy sweating up a storm. Cheng Jianfeng set down a telephone, his brows beaded with sweat. His heart was frantically pounding.
He'd never experienced such a sensation… Ordinarily, he only heard news of Foundation Establishment cultivators. One or two had called, yet he had to decline. But even in this rejection, he refused to be frightened, to have his heart skip and skin to crawl. Over-excitement made his fingers somewhat shaky. He clenched his teeth as he wrote down four characters on a jade slip at the side.
Thirteen days passed. Fourteen days passed. On the night of the fifteenth day.
Swoosh… Swoosh… At the instant the clock struck midnight, all the trees outside the room moved freely in the absence of the wind. In the sky, the stars seemed to twinkle with a boundless magnificence and dyed the entire sky with a layer of silver-white gauze! Meanwhile, on the ground, all shadows seemed to have been imprisoned. They transformed into inanimate objects, unable to budge!
It had completely surpassed natural law! As if the area had become a canvas, and all myriad beings were the backdrop! There was no tumultuously surging spiritual pressure, only the descent of a sovereign king. For this king, nature was willing to make path! And moreover alter its own rules!
In the Xingtian Legion's office, Xu Yangyi quickly stood up, his eyes glowing with radiant light. He's come… He's finally arrived!
On the twenty-first day… still nine days left until the auction would convene… he had come at long last!
1. Armchair is a referring to a very specific piece of Chinese furniture, but it sounds weird to phrase it as such. Look up: 太师椅. Literally means: "High Teacher Chair".
2. In legend, Sun Wukong is said to have a staff that morphs in size and weight. It is extremely heavy.
Things are starting to heat up… If you've been reading carefully, maybe you've already guessed who it is!

The Unwanted: Unwarranted Advice, Opinion and Commentary
There's nothing that bothers me more than people who believe that they have the right to tell others how to live their lives without permission. We've all had moments where we've felt that someone just had to know whatever we were thinking right then and there, and we've also all been subjected to unsolicited opinions at one time or another as well. Just because it happens doesn't make it right. Everyone has opinions, and each of us is entitled to them, however, there is a time and place for our beliefs to be appropriately presented. Opinions are part of the structure of arguments, but if the situation doesn't call for yours, or nobody asked for it, keep it to yourself.
This idea has bothered me for as long as I could remember and it wasn't until it affected a close friend of mine that I decided to do anything about it. One of my former roommates and fellow parkour practitioner came to me one day to talk about some issues in his training. These issues weren't solely a product of self but an issue stemming from the outside. He had essentially gotten some comments from people he had looked up to saying things like, "Cool tricks but you don't really do parkour." and "Yeah, you don't really train." Even though this wasn't the first time hearing this, it hit me how hard the slightest words can affect a person, even those through a computer screen. Not only that, these comments were even coming from people whom I had respected, both as friends and athletes.
"Cool tricks but you don't really do parkour."
What gave them the right to tear someone else down? Who were they to say what he was or wasn't doing? I had always hoped that the act was thoughtless and unintentional as I know how it feels to be both the victim and perpetrator in these sorts of situations, and believe me, I got and gave a lot of shit early on.
I remember back in 2008, posting a video I was quite proud of at the time, and then receiving a comment from an athlete who I respected: "Cool moves but you run like a retard." I'm not going to point fingers, but you know him. You can say they were just words, that it's just the internet, and that people are offended by everything nowadays, but it hurt, and those words stuck with me. Enough that it may have been one of the primary, unconscious reasons I adopted sprinting technique and trained it so heavily after. I went back to re-watch the video recently and it is confirmed: I ran like an idiot. So thanks, guy!
When was the last time you corrected someone's technique without them asking for help? Or critiqued their movement when they hadn't asked? Or even asked for permission before offering your advice? Do you know the difference between constructive criticism and just being an asshole? In a day of keyboard warriors and internet trolls it seems like everybody has something to say.
Our community preaches respect, humility and, most importantly, the idea of community, yet we often foster the opposite. Debate, controversy, elitism and ego have been integral parts of parkour since its inception; from forums like parkour.net and the original Urban Freeflow to YouTube, Facebook and even in the real world while training. Even the founding fathers had conflicting ideas in the beginning. But I mean, it's all just part of the human-condition, right?
So next time you consider jumping into someone's business when you don't have anything nice to say, think about fixing your own technique, and shutting that mouth. Thanks.
Unless it's a rap battle, then please, proceed.

Finally, This Whole Nasri Saga Is Almost Over
Posted on August 17, 2011 by Mike | afc4life.co.uk
At last, the Samir Nasri saga is almost over.
Almost as frustrating the Cesc Fabregas transfer to Barcelona, Nasri's refusal to sign a new contract has alienated himself from the Arsenal fans, and finally, it looks like his move to Manchester City will be completed soon.
His strange behaviour on Twitter, which started on Monday where he stated:
"I heard what the fans were singing about me on saturday and it is really disrespectful because i'm still a arsenal player."Â
He then congratulated Cesc on his move to Barca, which was fair enough:
"Congratulation to my mate @cesc4official i will miss you world class player and top men."Â
But then yesterday things got a little hairy, and it was speculated that Nasri had declared his disgust at the Arsenal fans and his move to Manchester City on his Facebook page. Again using Twitter, Nasri tweeted:
"Just to make things clear i dont have a facebook so i never said i was leaving with bitterness the guy who said that use a fake account."
In what has been one of the more strange transfer stories of the summer, Nasri should probably use Twitter and social media as much as Joey Barton.
Now it looks like he's finally going, I'm not sure how to end this post. Obviously, I wished Cesc all the best for what he had done for the club, and even gave a touching tribute to The Unachievable's, but how do I feel about Samir Nasri?
Unlike most Arsenal supporters I suspect, I never really read much into his refusal to sign a new deal. Over the years I've learnt to pretty much ignore all transfer speculation involving Arsenal because about 90% of it is completely made up. I find it quite hilarious how many players we're linked with over the summer and January transfer windows and how many Arsenal fans actually believe the hype. We should all know how Arsene does (and doesn't) spend his money by now.
Anyway, back to Samir. Coming from Marseille and being a right-footed winger who mainly played on the left, obvious comparisons were made to Bobby. His form over his first two seasons wasn't anything special (a la Bobby) and it was last season when he really came into his own. In Cesc's absence, he relished the central role and his performances were far more consistent. He scored some really beautiful goals, including that wonder goal against FC Porto in the Champions League.
And with Cesc's homecoming more and more likely, Nasri would have been the perfect candidate to replace him. So in a sense it's a really shame it has come to this.
His antics off the pitch should not take away from the fact that Arsenal are losing a talented and important player. That is why it is imperative that Arsene spends money on quality and brings in experience to the club. We have lost Fabregas and soon Nasri, and at least some of that needs to be invested back into the team.
I wouldn't begrudge Arsene if he kept most of it but if he doesn't bring in at least one creative player who will help our season then that would be unforgivable.
Don't ruin this early season optimism I have Arsene!

Fair blog until I got to the last sentence with the word optimism in.Two games in and I have seen nothing to give me optimism,in fact quite the opposite,we have been appalling and as I heard a fan say yesterday quite possibly the worst Arsenal team in 25/30 years….
DC on August 17, 2011 at 7:23 pm said:
Firstly, if it is almost over, it means it isn't over yet. Secondly, Yozza, whomever you were listening to yesterday doesn't know what he/she is talking about. As a gooner for over 50 years I can assure you this team may not be as good as those of the past ten years or so, but is easily better than most teams before that.
Optimistic, oh yes. My future is red and rosy.

i've been a supporter for the last 25 years and this is the first season for about ten years that i have felt that we are going to struggle, as for the midfield role give it to arshavin let him play where he plays for russia. He gets the assists and he can score also he won't be heavily relied on to do defencive duties.
@DC…yes you had probably got your scarf ready for the Champions league Final and the FA cup final let alone the open top bus parade to celebrate us winning the league last season…..Delusional like our Manager,you probably will come back with"judge us in May",seem to remember AW saying that,I did,we won f..k all,just like we won't this season!What a load of rubbish this team is better than most,you are obviously suffering from Dementia,did you not watch the Arsenal win at Anfield in 1989,did you not watch Arsenal in numerous cup finals in the 1970s…if you think this side will anything you are obviously watching a different side to me….

You better get over this "Nasri saga" quick. Coz the next one will just be round the corner. Two seasons running players have been tempted away … of course City want them … that's why they'll all be first team regulars … perish the thought that there's an attempt to destabilize Arsenal. Such a ridiculous suggestion. Anyhow I say we go get Joey B, play him against City so that they end up with half their team banned or suspended … gotta be worth opening the wallet for. Nice to see Arsenal winning 1 – 0 once again btw. Tough for Wenger tho – his "supporters" will be fed up with him for not winning in style and his detractors will cite a game that we did nt play particularly well in and might have lost.
A.F.C on August 17, 2011 at 9:13 pm said:
@Gerardo. The thing about not playing well and winning is that it is assuming that the team underperformed compared to what they usually produce. What I saw was a team that probably played close to its maximum ability but was just poor.

@YOZZA
Okay, I was with you until you said the worst team in 25/30 years, that is complete rubbish! The 80's and 90's had very turbulent seasons so can't agree with you there.
@argie
He seems like he's lost his spark though, not sure what's up with him. Maybe a positional change might kick start his Arsenal career, who knows.
@Gerardo
You mean like Abebayor, and Toure…

YOZZA,
1) you say "did you not watch the Arsenal win at Anfield in 1989,did you not watch Arsenal in numerous cup finals in the 1970s" but clearly you didn't see the team in the 70s-80s. If you had, you'd understand that this squad would have to get a fair bit worse to get that poor.
2) "Optimism" doesn't mean winning silverware (which does show you as a new supporter).

Many people do not talk about eye care. They are too preoccupied by other concerns to worry about their eyes. Don't be this type of person.
Be sure you know whether or not eye disease runs in your family. Some conditions concerning eyes are hereditary and having this information is important. You can find out this information by talking to your family.
Omega-3 supplements play an important role in eye care. It would be smart to add these acids to your diet. Foods such as tuna, halibut, salmon and leafy, green vegetables are great suggestions. Eat at least one serving of these foods a day.
Wear sunglasses – religiously. UV rays can cause eye and skin damage, even on cloudy days. Buy shades with UV protection. They may be pricier, but your eye health is worth it.
Have regular eye exams. Although you should see a doctor immediately if you have eye problems, some conditions may not develop symptoms immediately or ever. This is why you need to get checkups frequently. You can deal with a lot of eyesight issues if you do your research.
Use sunglasses. You can protect your eyes from ultraviolet rays with good sunglasses. Ultraviolet rays can also cause cataracts and macular degeneration. Find ones that address UVB and UVA rays. You need to get sunglasses that wrap around to help you out in any angle.
Look at the heating and air conditioning situation in your home. The heating and cooling of air can lead to many problems with your eyes. Instead of not running your heater, try using a humidifier to maintain air moisture. This can help reduce the redness in your eyes.
Prolonged exposure to computer screens can have a damaging affect on your eyes. Blink your eyes often if you are suffering from dry eyes. Try not to stare at your screen too often. If you can, try getting an anti-glare screen. Be sure you have computer in a position in which the monitor's top part and your eyes are on the same level. You want your eyes to be looking slightly down towards the screen.
Keeping up with your routine eye exams is critical to maintaining eye health. When you get up there in years, have eye exams more often. You are at higher risk of suffering from eye issues as you get older. If you are vigilant about your eye exams, your eye doctor is likely to spot issues early.
You now have the information you need to properly care for your eyes. You should make use of this information each day to make sure your eyes are serving you for a lifetime. After you change your approach to eye care, you will be rewarded with clear vision for many years.

Barbie Takes 'Porno Barbie' to Court.
In adult, adult film, adult industry, Barbie, China Barbie, court, entertainment, new york, News, porn, Porno Barbie, Uncategorized, World on August 22, 2007 at 3:39 pm
When a children's toy company takes a porn star to court, you know it's going to be quite a story.
With the recall of it's China made toys fresh in the mind, the world's largest toy company Mattel, is on the front foot with another kind of China.
The company is suing adult entertainer China Barbie for using 'a domain name containing the word "barbie" in a "bad faith attempt to profit from Mattel's Barbie trademarks" and had damaged Mattel's good name', according to media reports.
As you probably know Barbie is the worlds best selling fashion doll, since 1959 with about US $1.6 billion in sales each year. A personal favourite of mine….
Apparently China Barbie is the porn alias of Terri Gibson, who owns and runs her own adult web site under the company name Global China Networks, where users can access exclusive content for US$19.95 (€14.77). Sounds like a good deal to me.
Before getting into porn Gibson supposedly worked at some of the world's leading investment banking firms and advertising agencies in New York, but the lucrative world of porn was just too seductive for 29 year old Terri.
Along with appearing in her own web site, Terri who's father is Jamaican and mother Chinese, has also appeared in a number of hardcore adult films since 2001, according to IMDB.com, including Asian Divas 3, Me Luv U Long Time and Oral Sensations 7.
Mattel is angry at their good name being spoilt, demanding it get it's hands on the Chinabarbie.com domain name, damages of $100,000 (€74,030) and to order that any profits Global China Networks achieved be given to Mattel.
Our friends at Mattel are no stranger to court action. Cases include:
Memorably in 1997 against the Danish pop group Aqua for their song parody, Barbie Girl, it lost that case.
Mattel successfully sued an artist from Utah in 1999 for profiting from artistic photographs called Food Chain Barbie involving Barbie dolls in a blender. (Click to see the pictures)
An injunction against a British woman who produced a Barbie doll dressed in bondage clothing, that one was dismissed by the Judge, "to the court's knowledge, there is no Mattel line of S&M Barbie."
Hideous.
The only question now remains, who does mattel have their sights on now?
Amazing! Scientists awake patient from 6 years in coma like state.
In 2007, 21st century, amazing story, coma, coma patient, health, Life, Living, Medical Science, new york, News, People, science, Science & Technology, Society, surgery, technology, United States, US News, USA, World News on August 2, 2007 at 1:04 pm
In what could be a major breakthrough, scientists from the United States have been able to wake a man from a near vegetative state, and he can now talk to his family, watch TV and chew.
The 38-year-old from Ohio had been in a coma like state for 6 years, after being mugged and bashed, but when neuroscientists from New York and News Jersey used a pacemaker and two electrodes to send impulses into a part of the brain regulating consciousness, the mans quality of life was dramatically improved.
Media reports:
Unable to chew or swallow, the Cleveland patient, who has been identified only as an artist with two brothers, was fed by tube and could communicate solely through slight movements of his eyes and fingers.
Although he still does not initiate conversation, the surgery has allowed him to respond to questions with answers of up to three words. Several weeks ago, he recited the first half of the U.S. oath of allegiance without help.
The patient has also regained some movement in his limbs.
Electrodes were inserted into his thalamus, the region believed to be key in consciousness, to boost its speech and movement signals.
His mother said: "My son, as well as the entire family, had little hope of further recovery. Now he can eat, express himself and let us know if he is in pain.
"He can cry and he can laugh and, most importantly, he can say, 'Mommy' and 'Pop' and he can say, 'I love you Mommy'. I still cry every time I see my son but it is tears of joy."
The story is detailed HERE in the journal of Nature.

The Calgary Sun reports:
A newly crowned Bolivian beauty queen was stripped of her title after judges discovered she had worn fake braids during a pageant celebrating Aymara Indian fashions.
Mariela Mollinedo was chosen from 14 contestants Friday night for the title of Cholita Pacena 2007, an annual event that features the elaborate style favoured by La Paz's Aymara women, known as "cholitas."
But after the contest ended, judges discovered Mollinedo's long black braids — an essential part of the cholita look — were extensions.
An absolutely disgraceful act on the behalf of Mariela, totally deserved to be stripped of her title. I mean, how dare she wear hair extensions?! A truly abhorrent act.
"Oh, by the way, I was being sarcastic"
Meanwhile, in the home of the modern day beauty pagent
It was announced that Miss New Jersey was allowed to keep her title, despite photos arising that show her acting "not in a ladylike manner." Oh dear!
See photo's here! (you've likely seen worse)
Sweetheart Amy Polumbo said that she wanted "to thank God for getting me through this."
Sigh…Life's tough being beautiful.
