A leading narrative entering this game centered on Georgia's mindset after clinching the SEC East. The LSU loss and suddenly credible challenges from Florida and Kentucky brought the first major goal of the season into sharp focus. With that goal accomplished and a long road trip coming to an end, the question was whether Georgia would allow itself to relax and daydream about the Everest-sized challenge looming in Atlanta in a couple of weeks.
Georgia fans familiar with how Kirby Smart manages the team knew that this narrative was a bit of a reach: to begin with, two of the final three games were against two of Georgia's most bitter rivals. Beyond that, the Alabama game loses any national context if Georgia doesn't arrive in Atlanta at 11-1. It's likely true that Georgia needs a win over Alabama to return to the playoff, but another regular season loss would make the question moot.
In the offseason most pundits pointed to the Auburn game as Georgia's biggest obstacle with LSU a distant second. Auburn was a consensus preseason top 10 team, and their opening win over Washington only reinforced that perception. The 2018 season hasn't gone as expected for Auburn (or Washington!) since that win, and so we arrived at this game in a strange place: the team expected to give Georgia the most trouble was now a two-touchdown underdog, fighting for its coach's future, and possibly now a trap game for a Georgia team looking ahead.
Before we get to the details of the game, I think it's safe to say that Georgia didn't look like a team with its mind elsewhere. It was much closer to the team we've seen since the Florida game: an offense thriving with an invigorated running game and an improving young defense that continues to figure things out. Georgia needed to be dialed-in for this game because, as we saw, Auburn had a very real chance of putting the Dawgs in an early hole.
It's been a familiar plot for Auburn's offense to have Georgia scrambling early. Often the Georgia defense will figure things out, and hopefully the game is still manageable at that point. It wasn't surprising then to see Auburn have a little early success and even take the lead. That said, Auburn had an opportunity to put Georgia in its deepest bind since the LSU game. With Georgia's offense struggling to finish drives and Auburn putting together back-to-back scores, a 14-6 deficit at that point in the game would have looked much more daunting than 10-6. Eric Stokes' third down pass breakup in the endzone was a turning point: rather than going down eight in the second quarter, Georgia soon put up back-to-back scores and led by ten at halftime. Auburn never threatened again.
Auburn's 25 completions against Georgia netted just 172-yards, the lowest passing yardage by an Auburn pass offense with at least 25 completions from 1961-2018. During the previous 27 games of 25 completions, AU averaged 330-yards passing.
From 2000-2018, teams from the Southeastern Conference have combined for 351 games of at least 25 completions. Auburn's 172 yards gained against Georgia last night was the worst performance by a SEC team regarding passing yardage gained.
That's impressive in itself, but Georgia tightened up as the game went on. Auburn managed just two scoring opportunities. Georgia wasn't breaking, but they weren't doing much bending either after the first third of the game. The Tigers were just 3-11 on third down. Even with tempo, Auburn ran only 57 plays, and Georgia was able to control possession.
The Bulldog offense set a few high-water marks of their own. Georgia was the first team to amass more than 500 yards of offense against Auburn since the 2016 season. Had Georgia not faked the field goal at the end (or converted it), they'd have put up as many points on Auburn as any other team this year. Even so, as with the Kentucky game, you can easily spot points left on the field. There were three trips inside the Auburn ten yard line with six points to show for it. Fromm's unforced interception ended a scoring opportunity in the third quarter. Sloppy penalties slowed or even derailed drives. Georgia's offense is undoubtedly performing at a high level, but the kind of scoring that might make a difference in the postseason is right there in sight.
Georgia's offensive production starts with its running game. That running game looked a little different earlier in the year with Holyfield getting most of the production and the occasional explosive gain on a jet sweep padding the totals. But the running game has come into its own now with a healthy D'Andre Swift. You might not guess it from Georgia's rushing numbers in this game, but the Auburn defensive front is for real, and Georgia had to be creative in how it ran the ball. We saw some outside runs. There were occasional traps. There was more wildcat in this game than we've seen all year. And of course the ultimate change of pace, Justin Fields, had his share of carries.
Even the most creative attack would've stalled without a great performance from the offensive line, downfield/perimeter blockers, and tailbacks. Auburn's line made its share of plays, especially in the red zone, but it wasn't able to completely frustrate the Georgia offense as it did at Auburn last season. Georgia was persistent and eventually broke the big one. Swift had his best and most complete game as a Bulldog. He set another career high in yardage. He showed his versatility by leading the team in receptions. And as well as the team blocked, sometimes you just have to plant your foot and make someone miss. Swift was able to elude defenders and get extra yards both on running plays and after receptions.
While Swift provided the knockout blow, Georgia built their lead with some big plays in the passing game. Auburn's defense was stout up front, but there were some openings against the secondary. Godwin took advantage of mismatches across the middle first for a long third down conversion and then scoring from a five-wide set on fourth down. Fromm made good use of his reads, checking down to Swift for some important completions. Fromm did miss one checkdown on his interception – Herrien was open in the flat. The passing game was less effective around the goal line. Georgia tried to catch Auburn keying on the run with some play-action pass calls, but Auburn covered those well.
We saw a bit more Justin Fields in this game, and he certainly learned some lessons against a quality defense. Fields had a couple of key runs and conversions, and he had a nice completion on a rollout. We saw that Fields wasn't necessarily a panacea for Georgia's goal line woes, but that was good experience. Hopefully he gets more opportunities and freedom down the road.
Special teams had some shaky moments in the middle of the season, but it was a net positive for Georgia against Auburn. Hardman's kickoff return jumpstarted Georgia's first touchdown drive. The kick coverage unit discovered that you can tackle a kick returner before the 40, and Beal nearly forced a game-changing fumble. Hardman and Camarda teamed up on another gem of a downed punt. Godwin made sound decisions in the punt-safe formation and even secured the punt on which he was interfered with. A big punt return sparked Auburn's comeback against Texas A&M last week, but Georgia gave the Tigers no such breaks.
Georgia's run of 11 wins in 14 games against Auburn is quite remarkable given how closely the programs have tracked in their rivalry that goes back over a century. Kirby Smart has extended Mark Richt's success with a 3-1 record of his own. The Bulldogs have survived a gauntlet of four straight ranked opponents with a 3-1 mark, secured the SEC East title, and still have all of their goals ahead of them. It's the job of the next two weeks to arrive at the end of the regular season in no worse position while continuing the improvement we've seen since LSU.

Deskins: WE ARE NOT TRADITIONAL SAND DRYING BEDS!
Click here to see the chart on how Deskins stacks up to other methods of dewatering.
Sand Drying Beds are one of the oldest ways to dewater sludge. Dave Deskins knew that this process could be improved on over 30 years ago. By simply adding polymer to the sludge with a polymer activation unit, he could increase productivity of the sand drying bed.
However, his improvement of sand drying beds did not stop there. He invented the RapidFloc Mixer and Deskins Quick-Dry Filter Beds increased efficiency placed on the high demands of sludge dewatering (see video). Between Texas and California -there are over 30 installations of the patented Deskins Quick-Dry Filter Bed System. Most notably the Clovis Water Plant, with a savings of over 12.5 billion gallons of water in 12 years. Deskins played a pivotal role in the operation of this plant and was presented at an AWWA Conference (see it here).
Deskins will have two RapidFloc Mixers being utilized in the agricultural market in Europe in the next few months. We are extremely excited about this and will keep you posted. This will definitely give companies an edge on polymer reduction and efficiency of centrifuges/ beltpresses.

A Russian multi-millionaire who blew the whistle on a $230 million tax fraud probably died of natural causes rather than being the victim of a Kremlin-inspired mafia hit, a British coroner has found.
Alexander Perepilichnyy, 44, collapsed and died while jogging near his home on an exclusive estate in Surrey, southern England, some three years after fleeing from Russia where he faced threats over his role in a huge money laundering operation.
The coroner Nicholas Hilliard on Wednesday ruled out suggestions that Mr Perepilichnyy was murdered on the orders of Russian president Vladimir Putin or those close to him.
"There really is no direct evidence that he was unlawfully killed," he added.
The case has been closely scrutinised for six years after initial police failures meant that opportunities to secure vital evidence including security camera footage and medical evidence were missed. Officers also lost samples of the contents of the dead man's stomach and computer evidence about the case.
It emerged soon after his death that Mr Perepilichnyy had been giving evidence to Swiss prosecutors about a notorious Russian tax fraud carried out against an investment run by the US financier, Bill Browder. He had also spoken with officials from Mr Browder's firm, Hermitage, before he died.
Speaking after the inquest concluded on Wednesday, Mr Browder – who describes himself as Mr Putin's enemy number one – said that the coroner was "working with a puzzle with only 20 per cent of the pieces because of Surrey Police's incompetence".
The findings in the case of Mr Perepilichnyy's death came as relations between the two countries are in deep freeze following an assassination attempt of former double agent Sergei Skripal in UK soil in March.
The circumstances of Mr Perepilichnyy's death have always been less clear-cut as he had never been a vocal critic of the Putin regime, unlike Alexander Litvinenko, an anti-Putin former agent who was killed in a Kremlin-ordered poisoning in 2006, or an alleged traitor like Mr Skripal.
Mr Perepilichnyy's case was one of a number of suspicious fatalities involving UK-based Russians and their associates which were investigated for potential Russian state involvement. They included Boris Berezovsky, the oligarch and one-time Putin-backer, who police say killed himself at his home in the UK in 2013.
He had fallen out with Mr Putin and lost his fortune after a high-profile court battle with fellow oligarch Roman Abramovich but members of his family believe he was murdered.
Concerns were first raised over Mr Perepilichnyy's death after it emerged that he acted as a "personal banker" for members of a Russian organised crime group that were involved in tax fraud.
A lawyer working on behalf of Mr Browder, Sergei Magnitsky, was arrested after uncovering details of the scam and died in prison after suffering brutal conditions. The case has led to countries including the US and Canada adopting "Magnitsky laws" to punish human rights abusers.
Mr Perepilichnyy came forward to speak with Mr Browder following the death of Mr Magnitsky, the inquest was told.
He took out a series of life insurance policies just before he died but did not employ bodyguards or change his travel patterns, suggesting he did not feel he was at imminent risk of murder, said Mr Hilliard.

Now that the city of Gilbert has approved their proposed plans, they're ready to get started on creating their own space.
The retailer, whose products are made with all natural ingredients starting with extra virgin olive oil, focuses on skin care and has a line of products from soaps to lip balms, body oils to lotion sticks, and lineups for men, women, and children.
As of now, OliveSpa has run in a little space at Queen Creek Olive Mill, which is owned by Rea and her husband. There's also a little space in the mill where the products are produced, which will remain where everything comes from once the new store opens up.
"This will be the first of our own space and we're really excited about it," said Rea. "At some point, we're also thinking of opening up a space behind it for treatments like facials."
While the Reas own the Queen Creek Olive Mill together, OliveSpa operates under Brenda's direction. As of now, no official opening date has been set, but the Epicenter is slated to open in 2022.

"Remember Me, Hamlet"
Posted by Pat S in Uncategorized
Hamlet Director and Thunder River Theatre Company's founder and artistic director, Lon Winston answers questions regarding our matinee performance. "Remember me, Hamlet" was a quote from the Ghost of King Hamlet played by Jaywalkers own poet laureate and former counselor emeritus Kim Nuzzo. Perhaps the only thing I remembered from Hamlet was "to be or not to be," a skull, and sword fight – not too surprising ! Much to my delight, and thanks to an amazing production and spectacular acting I found a renewed appreciation for arguably, Shakespeare's most famous and powerful tragedy. I had a new perspective and understanding of the difficulty of taking action, ambition, and appearances. All of the actors wore masks to represent the duality of the characters and their motivations. I can certainly relate to the wearing of facades during my addictions. I was too busy trying to be the person who I thought…

Stimulant Abuse Among College Students Problematic
Nearly one in every five college students abuses prescription stimulants." A recent survey sponsored by Partnership for Drug -Free Kids revealed that more than 20% of college students abuse prescription stimulants. The students reported using the drugs to help them stay awake, study or improve their school performance. The drugs abused are typically the same as those prescribed for legitimate ADHD patients, such as Adderall, Ritalin, and Vyvanse. "The profile that emerges is less that of an academic goof-off who abuses prescription stimulants to make up for lost study time than a stressed out multitasked who is burning the candle at both ends and trying to keep up." The drugs can be useful for those who suffer from ADHD but the abuse potential can lead to full blown addiction. Stimulant abuse can result in depression, social anxiety, and paranoia. Abuse can also lead to other stimulant drugs such as cocaine…
The Sculpture has Landed
James Surls gave a loud "hoot" and tossed his cap into the air as the anxious crowd applauded the touchdown of the 20 foot sculpture onto the marble base where it will reside. There were dozens of onlookers, including those who have been working on Carbondale's new traffic roundabout. The labor for bronze and steel sculpture "Sewing the Future" was donated by world renowned artist James Surls because of his love for Carbondale. Although, a Texas transplant, James raised his seven daughters in the Roaring Fork Valley and says he doesn't plan on leaving anytime soon. The $200,000 in funds needed for the materials, casting, and fabrication were raised through a community outreach effort which included the assistance of several of the Jaywalker men. We assisted in raising awareness at several public events through selling T-shirts and supplying information about the design elements of the sculpture. A plethora of outdoor…
Congrats Mark K!
Last Friday Alumni Coordinator, Mark Kloster, celebrated 4 years of sobriety! Many people say, "So-and-so is their rock!" Well Mark Kloster is the rock to many people. Mark has always been positive and there for many of us. I met Mark two years ago and found out that he was originally a cop. I thought to myself, that I would not get along with Mark because I disliked cops in the past. But Mark is just like you and me. He's a loving, caring, funny, outgoing man who I'm glad to call my friend. Since the first day I met Mark He has always been there for me, always cheering me up, and always giving me positive feedback that helped me get through many tough situations. Mark is fully transformed the alumni program and has given the alumni the chance to do volunteer work around the community and expand their…
Gardening Collaborative
Empowering community through education, sustainable projects, and gardens for hunger relief within our communities. Kim Willie of Growing Food Forward stated, " Last Thursday volunteers from Jaywalker Lodge, A New Path, and Aspire Women's Recovery did a great job in an hour and a half; hand-tilling the soil, cutting and planting potatoes, and mulching them in with layers of straw and organic compost from Pitkin County Landfill in the three beds behind the Third Street Center in Carbondale, CO." What a great collaborative effort to do our small part to help bring fresh, local, organic produce to those in need. Kim Willie, and the Growing Food Forward project have planted almost 100 gardens this spring and summer which will help supply our local food pantries like Lift-Up, with healthy, nutritious food. Our Recovery programs which have the opportunity to be part of this incredible undertaking, also derive a great benefit…
Coffee and Community for a Cause
Jaywalker would be nothing without the Carbondale Community , which has looked us in the eye, embraced us, and given us a second chance." Bobby Ferguson, Founder of Jaywalker Lodge." Second Chances ! Without them, most of us in the Recovery community would be lost or worse. Bobby Ferguson's second chance resulted in Jaywalker Lodge, which has been helping alcoholics and addicts realize theirs for the last nine years here in Carbondale. Bobby's vision for Boomerang Coffee Company ( formerly the Blend) is multi-faceted. Boomerang will provide employment opportunities for clients, alumni, and others in the community. Those in recovery will have another safe place to socialize and integrate into the community. Finally, all net profits from Boomerang will support the efforts of A Way Out, an Aspen based non-profit which provides a "Hand-Up" to addicts in need. Executive Director, Liz Means, and several board members were on hand Thursday…
Shipway Celebrates 1 Year
Steve Shipway was the classic example of a "Broken Man" upon his arrival At Jaywalker Lodge a year ago. I first met Steve on a Lodge expedition to Moab while taking a group hike. Those of you who know Steve, know that he likes to share a good story or two! This story was not happy tale, but one of despair and defeat. Steve told of all the things he had built and achieved in his life but that he had lost them all to his disease of addiction. He was mentally, physically, and spiritually bankrupt, but after our conversations I had a strong sense that he was ready and willing to transform his life. He had shown me pictures of his home, his family, and his dogs and I could hear the love and compassion underlying the guilt and shame. Steve took his determination and strong work ethic and…

I will reply to all of you tomorrow. Thank you for your input! My tablet needs to be charged and I need to go to bed!
Thank you bombsh3ll. I read a case study from 2017 that successfully used a nitroglycerin patch. I offered to provide my EP cardiologist with this information, but he flat out refused to review the case study or consider ordering this for me. He did tell me that I read too much. I may need to look for a new clinician. Has anyone in this forum with supine tried any of these strategies?
I thank both of you for your responses. What are the other short term drug options for reducing supine hypertension?
I have been advised to consume 64 oz of water and add electrolytes to the water. The EP was not specific as to how many milligrams of sodium and potassium I should consume daily. I called him his office to ask, but I was given a very vague answer. I understand why I am supposed to drink more water and electrolytes, to help increase my blood pressure when standing. I tried using a low dose of Midodrine twice a day. I have supine hypertension. The Midodrine exacerbated my supine hypertension and I started to have headaches, so I stopped taking it. My blood pressure has gone up to 170/100. The EP wasn't concerned about this high number. I take 160 mg of Valsartan at night, but it doesn't seem to help lower my supine blood pressure. My question is, does anyone know if extra water and sodium intake will also increase supine hypertention, in your experience. I realize that we all react differently to non pharmaceutical therapy.
I'm sorry . I entered a reply in the wrong area and my name is appearing on this post above by mistake instead of the person that posted it. . I'm hoping that the person who posted it .com add their name bac.


Teeth stains and discolorations can have adverse effects on your interactions with people, especially the way you smile and talk. This could extend to other areas of your life, including your work and interpersonal associations. Teeth whitening is a way to enhance your smile and give your self-confidence a boost. This article focuses on the essential facts you should know, including the basics of teeth whitening.
To choose the best and most suitable teeth whitening procedure, it is vital that you acquaint yourself with the causes of teeth stains and discolorations. Stains form on the teeth through the consumption of tea, red wine and other acidic drinks that weaken the tooth enamel. Smoking and the use of most tobacco products can also stain the teeth.
Other agents of discoloration include certain types of antibiotics and injuries that impair the tooth structure. The teeth could also become discolored with aging. This is because the tooth enamel deteriorates over time, exposing the yellowish inner layer (dentin) of the teeth. Understand that some teeth whitening procedures are not useful for some types of stains or discolorations.
Teeth whitening acts by changing the color of the tooth's interior (otherwise called intrinsic whitening) or cleaning stains off the tooth's exterior (called extrinsic whitening).
Intrinsic whitening is done to whiten the dentin, or the inner layer of the tooth, using hydrogen peroxide gel (called bleach or whitening gel). Intrinsic whitening may take other forms, such as preventing untimely aging and making lifestyle adjustments like staying hydrated.
This is the process of cleaning stains off the enamel, the outer layer of the teeth. The stains, caused by drinking wine, coffee or tea, can be easily cleaned by a dental hygienist during a dental checkup or with whitening toothpaste.
Your options for teeth whitening include over-the-counter whitening kits sold by local drugstores and professional cleaning. Over-the-counter kits, such as teeth whitening strips and toothpastes, offer patients an easy way to whiten their teeth. The issue is that these products have bleaching agents that do not work effectively like professional teeth whitening kits and may even damage the teeth.
Professional teeth whitening can be an in-office or take-home treatment. For in-office procedures, the dentist will apply a whitening agent to your teeth, while professional home treatment entails the use of kits containing a bleaching agent and a whitening tray. Although in-office whitening is usually more effective, take-home kits are generally more convenient.
Not every case of tooth stains or discoloration can be corrected with teeth whitening. Whitening is typically more useful for minor blemishes and may not make any difference if the discoloration is due to antibiotic use. Generally, teeth whitening works better on stains that are yellowish or brownish instead of grayish.
Cases of severe stains are better handled in the office rather than using home kits or over-the-counter products. Also, remember that teeth whitening is ineffective for cosmetic restorations such as crowns, veneers or prosthetic teeth.


Crowhurst is a civil parish in Tandridge Borough Council in Surrey. It has a population of 349. In 1985 the Council elected to add the forename Sam to the village name in honour of a boy of the same name who was found abandoned on the Common.
The parish lay within the Anglo-Saxon administrative division of Tandridge hundred.

FRED DELLAR, SMASH HITS, APRIL 16 -29, 1981:It's the old repetitious-phrase-plus-insistent-beat ploy, which always stands a reasonable chance of success given a fair following wind. Basically though, 'Running' is just another sub-standard Subs standard, pressed on boat race winning, Oxford blue vinyl.
PUNKY GIBBON: The last Subs single to chart, but it fared worse than previous efforts, possibly because the band thought it would be a wheeze to photograph themselves decked out in New Romantic duds, but partly because it was a slight step down in quality. 'Keep On Running' kicks off with a rip-off of the 'Message In A Bottle' riff and plays like a Diminished Responsibility outtake, while 'Perfect Girl' is a short punkier number Subs by rote. Don't get me wrong, this disc is certainly okay, but it was their weakest 7" to date. The EP version (on black vinyl only) added the diabolical/hilarious French-language version of "Party In Paris' (a fan club freebie) and a demo version of 'Ice Age', which was subsequently recorded properly for Endangered Species.

The sun, when at its highest, has this deeply misleading effect of having us believe that there are no shadows in the world, or even more than that, that no shadow is even possible. In a perfect world there is no shadow nor is it possible to have shadows, but our world is far from perfect and therefore is full of shadows. Some more extreme oriental philosophies would say that it consists of nothing but shadows. This is certainly not the case, because we have the sun. Nevertheless, to forget that shadows are part of our world is unfair.
But why think of shadows when the sun shines and the birds are singing? Probably the best ability human beings have is that of living exclusively in the present. Sure, now and then we dig into our memories and take short walks into our past. Equally rare as those walks into the past are our short projections into the future. But most of the time we are creatures of the present. It's ike we don't care about passing time, each of us living in his own eternity, like having a private island in time. Happily, in time you don't have to be rich in order to have an island, as it is the case in space. What is even more remarkable about our ability to live in the present is that the present we live in is not a real present, but an idealized one in which the best of our past and our hopes for the future coexist.
There is, however, a class of people we usually call pessimists. After attaching this label, we discard them easily as anomalies. But pessimists are those of us who have lost the ability to live under the ever-shining sun. Their islands in time have been shattered. This may be because their lives have been hell or because they are born with a distrustful eye that sees the shining sun as the ephemeral thing that it is. The ultimate reality, for this eye, is not the shining sun, but death. The pessimist spends his life staring at death and death stares back at him every second of his life. Emil Cioran is probably the best representative of this kind of built-in pessimism which is further qualified as nihilism.
Be that as it may, built-in or taken from life, pessimism is nevertheless the more brave and more lucid way of seeing, because it is not tricked by the shining sun into believing that there are no shadows in the world or, or even worse than that, that no shadows are possible. For the lucid eye of the pessimist, instead of joyful rays of light, the sun radiates nothing but shadows.

Time and the meaning of life
Our life is made of time. Unfortunately for us, time is fleeting. Unlike our life, time can flow as long as there is a Universe. But even if our live would last as long as the Universe itself, it would still be short, because we are satisfied only by the infinite.
Now, leaving aside the fact that life is so short, there is something in the way we live our life that makes it even more pitiful. We spend our life in a perpetual waiting for…something else. There are, of course, islands in time in which we are fully content, moments that we would like to last forever. Moments like being in love in Paris or, for that matter, in any other place on Earth. Or having a vacation in an exotic destination. But these are
but short stops in which we catch our breath and start running again. Life, as it is, is but perpetual motion towards an unknown and unknowable destination. We die as unfinished projects and this is what makes every death so tragic. In the whole history there was nobody who got there. May it be with life also as it is with any other thing? The meaning of a thing is always outside the thing itself. The meaning of a knife is in it's ability to cut bread or human flesh. Thus, the meaning of a knife is not in the knife, but in something outside it. Logic would have us believe that the meaning of life is not in anything in life, but can we even imagine anything outside life? The meaning of life would be life itself only if life would be eternal, but since life is limited in time, it cannot be so. It looks like time is the enemy of the meaning of life, not time itself but fleeting time which makes life fleeting.
And most of the time it is we who are the greatest enemies of the meaning of our lives. When we live for the next second and neglect the present one, we contribute in making our lives shorter than they already are. In doing this we take the end and bring it into our lives before is actually ending time. But we are beings who feed on hope and hope is always something pertaining to the future. To make our lives meaningful, that is, to make peace with time, we would have to give up hope. But without hope, what is life? It is now clear that we are dealing with a paradox. To live is to hope, but to hope is to jump out of life. So it is life who is pregnant with it's own meaningless. Or is it just a signal to a meaning beyond? Beyond what? The end.

BTC, ETH, XRP, UNI, BEAM, QTUM, OMG—Technical Analysis May 25
Bymike	 May 25, 2021
Bitcoin (BTC) has bounced at the $30,000 support area.
Ethereum (ETH) has completed a bearish impulse pattern.
XRP (XRP) is trading inside a descending parallel channel.
Uniswap (UNI) has bounced at the $17.35 support area.
Beam (BEAM) is trading inside a range between $0.52 and $0.86.
Qtum (QTUM) has bounced at the $7.70 support area.
OMG Network (OMG) has broken out from a descending resistance line.
After reaching a low of $30,000 on May 19, BTC bounced significantly. While it retraced afterward, it managed to create a higher low on May 23 and followed it with a bullish engulfing candlestick.
Technical indicators are potentially turning bullish. The daily RSI has generated a bullish divergence and has crossed above 30. In addition, the MACD has made a higher momentum bar.
The next closest resistance levels are found at $41,200 and $48,170.
BTC Chart By TradingView
ETH has been decreasing since May 12 after reaching an all-time high price of $4,372. The decrease has been sharp, culminating with a low of $1,728, reached on May 23.
While ETH has been increasing since then, the preceding downward movement looks like a bearish impulse. Therefore, it's possible that the ongoing increase is the A wave of an A-B-C corrective structure.
If so, ETH could find resistance between the 0.5-0.618 Fib retracement support levels found at $3,050 and $3,360, respectively.
ETH Chart By TradingView
XRP has been trading inside a descending parallel channel since reaching a high on April 14. Parallel channels usually contain corrective structures. XRP bounced at the support line of the channel on May 23 and has been increasing since.
Another element that substantiates the possibility of the movement being a correction is the ratio between the decreases. If the movement is an A-B-C structure, waves A:C had an exact 1:1 ratio (white), very common in such structures.
Unlike ETH, the overlap between the two movements (red line) indicates that this is not a bearish impulse.
XRP Chart By TradingView
UNI has been moving downwards since May 3, when it reached an all-time high price of $45. The decrease was swift, at one point measuring 71%.
On May 23, UNI reached a low of $13 and bounced, creating a bullish engulfing candlestick. Since then, it has reclaimed the 0.618 Fib retracement support level at $17.35.
As a result of the drop, the next closest resistance levels are found between $29 and $32.75. These are the 0.5 and 0.618 Fib retracement resistance levels.
UNI Chart By TradingView
BEAM has been decreasing since reaching an all-time high price of $2.10 on April 11.
The correction continued for 42 days, culminating with a low of $0.256 being reached on May 24. This amounted to a downward movement of 78%, slightly higher than those of UNI and ETH.
However, BEAM has bounced above the $0.52 support area, creating a long lower wick. The closest resistance area is found at $0.96.
It's possible that BEAM will consolidate inside this range for a bit.
BEAM Chart By TradingView
On May 7, QTUM reached an all-time high price of $35.68. What followed was a 16-day corrective period, in which the token's price fell by 82%. This culminated with a low of $6.37 on May 23. Similar to ETH, the drop resembles a bearish impulse.
The dip also managed to validate the $7.70 area as support.
If QTUM continues to increase, the closest resistance levels are found at $17.60 and $21. These are the 0.382 and 0.5 Fib retracement resistance levels.
QTUM Chart By TradingView
OMG had been following a descending resistance line since reaching a high of $15.62 on May 7.
After four unsuccessful breakout attempts, OMG finally moved above the line on May 24.
At the time of press, it was in the process of validating the level as support.
The main resistance area is found between $9.36 and $10.74. This target zone is made from the 0.5-0.618 Fib retracement resistance levels.

Studies offer glimpse of melting under Antarctic ice
Tide-gauge records might underestimate sea level rise
Sea Level News | October 19, 2016
A wall of ice in transition
By Laura Faye Tenenbaum, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory
The terminus of Russell Glacier, Greenland.
I went off for a day to visit Russell Glacier, which flows from the Greenland Ice Sheet down the Akuliarusiarsuup Kuua River, into the Kangerlussuaq Fjord and out into the Davis Strait. I knew I'd watch it melt right in front of me. And I expected to feel sad standing there so close to such an obvious and intense signal of global warming and climate change.
I stood there as the Arctic sun moved onto the horizon behind me, breathing the cool air, listening to the loud rush of meltwater passing between me and the 200-foot wall of ice in front of me. I thought about the 100,000-year span of time that this ice sheet has lasted on this planet. I looked toward the Akuliarusiarsuup Kuua River valley thinking about the future of that meltwater as it flowed out to sea. As we continue adding heat-trapping gases to our environment, our climate will keep changing and this meltwater will only increase. Someday the whole ice sheet may be gone.
I was supposed to feel sad. But I didn't. Instead I just felt grateful to be alive, right here, right now, in 2016. To be alive in that time between 100,000 years ago and the whatever-will-happen-in-our-climate-changed future.
I hope you understand.

Beijing, 12 April 2018 – "Large office tenants snapped up new completions, as city policies work to reduce future supply in urban areas," said Julien Zhang, Managing Director for JLL North China.
Beijing, 12 April 2018 – "Large office tenants snapped up new completions, as city policies work to reduce future supply in urban areas," said Julien Zhang, Managing Director for JLL North China. Meanwhile, in the retail sector, entertainment tenants expanded in the market, with non-conventional cinemas leading the charge. Investment activity picked up across sectors, despite the traditional low season for investment. The overall industrial vacancy rate hit a new five-year low, after a large amount of space was taken in the emerging Pinggu submarket. In the residential market, primary capital values growth for luxury apartments remained negative for a third consecutive quarter, as the high-end residential price restrictions stayed in place. The upscale hotels market was off to a strong start at the beginning of the year, with performance continuing to trend upward.
Recent completions continued to unlock pent-up demand from large occupiers as PetroChina secured all of Hengyi Building in Olympic Area with a long-term lease. Alibaba also took up a significant portion of Radiance in Wangjing, further boosting their huge presence in the submarket. Meanwhile, after a year of record fines imposed by financial regulators, Finance Street saw demand soften in the quarter as firms pause to ensure that their strategies align with the quality growth targets outlined by the central government.
The Beijing government has stipulated building height restrictions of around 100-180 metres for office towers in the CBD Core Area. Exceptions have been made for projects with exteriors that have already surpassed the limit. Therefore, the policy is expected to have little impact on near-term supply, but will reduce future supply later over the forecast horizon and further delay completions.
Tech-led submarkets pulled up overall rents in the quarter. Wangjing and Zhongguancun saw rents increase significantly, as vacancies narrowed and demand from tech firms continued to be strong. "Due to strong IT demand in the area, landlords in these submarkets were confident despite impending new supply in the CBD and Lize," said Eric Hirsch, Head of Office Leasing for JLL in Beijing. "With tech firms poised to see strong growth ahead, these popular tech hubs are expected to maintain leading positions in the market." Meanwhile, Finance Street rents were flat q-o-q; softer finance demand followed several months of increased regulatory oversight.
Investment activity picked up across sectors, with Beijing's total transaction volume totaling 5.3 billion RMB in the quarter, despite the start of the year serving as traditional low season for investment. In the quarter, seven major deals spanned office, retail, hotels, and residential sectors. Notable deals in the quarter included the sale of CapitaMall Cuiwei in West Beijing to Vanke's commercial property arm SCP Group, which teamed up with Triwater Asset Management for the deal. The property belonged to a portfolio deal that included 20 shopping malls in 19 mainland Chinese cities for a total transaction price of 8.4 billion RMB. In Haidian District, the 221-room hotel property Chengyuan Building (Tower A) was sold to domestic Jingrui Investment Group for 269 million RMB. In Sanyuanqiao area, Ascendas Hospitality Group sold Ibis Beijing Sanyuan and Novotel Beijing Sanyuan in a portfolio deal for 1.1 billion RMB to a joint venture between domestic Huazhu Hotel Group and US-based private equity firm TPG Capital.
Domestic demand from institutional investors remains strong, with value-add opportunities in the office sector continuing to attract interest in the market. However, as the availability of office assets in core areas continues to be scarce, an increasing number of investors are open to prospects in retail and hotels, and even business parks, especially as new opportunities surface in the market. "Beijing remains an attractive place for investment due to its strong fundamentals," said Michael Wang, Head of Investments for JLL North China. "As such, investors are continuing to actively search the market for potential opportunities."
Entertainment tenants expanded in the market with non-conventional cinemas. Non-conventional cinemas entered the market: boutique cinema Huaxia Cinemas opened at Beijing Uni Fans and Wanda Hoytscinema opened with a dedicated children's screening room at Beijing Hopson One. Other cinema operators were committed to opening new-format cinemas or looking for projects to open these cinemas.
Following a record supply quarter, just one small project came online in 1Q18. Located outside of the North Third Ring Road, Beijing Uni Fans opened in the Urban market with 70% commitment. Covering an area of 40,000 sqm, the property is positioned as an F&B and lifestyle project and features two new retail supermarkets, the Tencent-backed Super Species and JD.com's unmanned supermarket. Guiyou Department Store in the CBD re-opened after renovations and introduced several F&B and entertainment tenants to attract nearby white-collar workers. North Star Department Store in Ya'ao closed.
The increasing "childrenization" of suburban properties will help landlords draw more young families to their projects, making these properties a hot spot for children's retailers. "Most new suburban malls are setting aside at least one entire floor for children's tenants, and we continue to see segmentation within this retail category expanding to include all kinds of children's tenants, be it fashion, entertainment, or education," said Queenie Qu, Head of Landlord Representative, Retail Leasing for JLL in Beijing. "Children's themes are also being targeted as the sole or overwhelming focus for a small, but growing number of suburban malls. As such, we can expect children's retailers to continue serving strong as the main source of suburban demand."
Demand from e-commerce companies, 3PLs, and manufacturers remained stable. In the emerging Pinggu submarket, an MNC auto parts manufacturer took up the last large space in the market, driving the majority of net absorption (23,900 sqm) for the quarter. Large e-commerce players remained keen to expand in the market, but the lack of large space in mature areas held back some of this demand.
Marking a new five-year low, the overall vacancy rate fell to just 0.5% in the quarter, following the large take-up in Pinggu. Meanwhile, total logistics stock remained unchanged at 2 million sqm, as no new supply entered the market for a fourth consecutive quarter. No primary land plots for warehouse use were transacted in 1Q18.
Rental growth saw a significant increase of 2.1% q-o-q in the quarter, as landlords took advantage of strong pricing power due to the tight-vacancy environment. Particularly in prime areas, landlords had the upper-hand in negotiating small spaces, helping overall rents to climb to RMB 1.20 per sqm per day. GLP, one of the largest players in the logistics market, acquired a project in Beiwu, Shunyi for over RMB 200 million, and plans to re-develop it into a modern, multi-storey warehouse. "Given the limited future supply for Beijing's warehouse market, this is an attractive prospect for GLP," said Michael Hart, Head of Industrial for North China at JLL. "Landlords hold a favourable position in the market, and over the coming months, we can expect to see them using this to their advantage, especially as they negotiate space that frees up in the mature submarkets."
The Lunar New Year holiday drove the seasonal downturn in sales volume. The luxury apartment transaction volume decreased 69.0% q-o-q due to the traditionally low season marking Lunar New Year; high-end villa sales were restrained by the lack of new supply, decreasing 52.7% q-o-q over the same period.
The annual Two Sessions of China's top legislative and advisory bodies in March confirmed that the tight-policy environment would remain in place. Under the continued high-end residential price restrictions, primary capital values growth for luxury apartments remained negative (-0.8% q-o-q) for a third consecutive quarter. High-end villa primary capital values grew steadily, however, rising 0.8% q-o-q under the limited supply and stable demand. Only four luxury apartment projects were launched; all located near the Fourth Ring Road, the new supply added 231 units to the market. No new villa supply entered the primary sales market in the quarter.
The development of the rental apartment market continued to be a key priority for authorities. Developers were encouraged to convert properties into rental apartment projects outside the Third Ring Road, as authorities restricted conversions to residential sales projects within the Fourth Ring Road. "Direction on the development of the housing market was made very clear during China's most important annual political meetings," said Joe Zhou, Head of Research, China for JLL. "Considering that authorities identified the provision of more affordable housing options as a priority for residents in Beijing, we can expect to see further promotion of the rental market going forward."
Note: Hotels refers to the upscale hotel market. *ADR inclusive of service charge.
Overall market performance continued to recover in the quarter, with the RevPAR y-o-y growth rate recording a significant double-digit increase. The RevPAR increased 14.1% y-o-y to 630.3 RMB as at YTD February. The rise was driven by a 7.8% y-o-y increase in the ADR, which reached 986.7 RMB, and a 3.6 percentage point-rise (y-o-y) in occupancy, which settled at 63.9%. The strong RevPAR growth rate was also significant as it matched that of 2011 levels, before performance fell due to fallout from the Global Financial Crisis.
No upscale hotels opened in the quarter, but 2018 is expected to see a supply wave of 11 new hotels enter the market. The new supply is expected to add more than 2,400 rooms to the market, boosting total supply by 1.7%. Despite the incoming supply, new supply is expected to remain moderate over the forecast horizon. Most of the new hotels in the 2018 pipeline are scheduled to come online in the second half of the year and are dispersed throughout the city, with locations in Wangfujing and Qianmen for the urban areas and Changping and Fengtai for the suburban areas.
Beijing is expected to remain a highly sought-after city by hotel investors. Following the portfolio sale of Ibis Sanyuan and Novatel Sanyuan in the quarter, and taking into consideration the rising transaction volume in recent months, we see the market becoming more active. The upward performance trend, scarcity of upscale hotel assets, and moderate future supply pipeline over the forecast horizon indicate that transaction prices still have room for growth.
Key government priorities are expected to further support strong performance of the market through 2018. The tight-policy environment restricting new hotels in the urban areas will benefit existing hotels, as future competition is restrained. Moreover, key priorities outlined during China's top political meetings in March, placing an emphasis on improved transport integration, environment protection, and balanced industry development for the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is likely to increase demand from both business and leisure travelers. "Greater Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei integration will have many knock-on effects, such as increasing the number of city conventions, which will draw more travelers to Beijing. As the region becomes more integrated, we can also expect people from surrounding areas to make more frequent weekend trips to Beijing," said Adela Zu, Vice President of Hotels & Hospitality for JLL in Beijing. "In addition, the 144-hour visa-free policy introduced for Beijing at end-2017 is expected to attract more foreign tourists from abroad and serve as a further boost to the market."


I never expected to end up in maximum security prison when I moved to Tofino in 1988. I had just finished my fourth season of tree planting—I knew what would happen to Clayoquot Sound's rainforest if something didn't change, soon. People often ask what brought me to Tofino. "My Volkswagen van," I quip, but really it was the big trees, which I had fallen in love with as a teenager back in 1979.
When I rolled into town, the community was in an uproar over a logging road being blasted into Ahousaht First Nations territory—along Millar Channel, heading for Sulphur Passage and onward to the Megin River valley. Brave individuals, including Ahousaht hereditary chief (the late) Earl Maquinna George, were staging a resistance at the end of the road, using peaceful and creative means to stop the road building. It was a hot buggy summer, full of life-threatening confrontations with the loggers. By September, thirty seven people had been arrested. As it turned out, the logging company did not even have road-building permits—the road was illegal!
We succeeded in stopping the road from entering Sulphur Passage. In 1993 Sulphur Pass and the Megin River valley were added to Strathcona Provincial Park. The Megin and Moyeha, along with Clayoquot Sound's other unlogged river valleys, comprise Vancouver Island's Last Great Rainforest. Everything outside of park boundaries is still open for logging.
That summer of 1988 I joined the crew on the road and committed myself to protecting Clayoquot Sound. I was arrested for peacefully preventing the drill rig from working. The judge sentenced me and 5 other women to a week in jail. He thought to make an example of us to deter others. Little did he know we were the thin edge of the wedge that would grow to become a full-fledged rainforest uprising by 1993.
Today the scar of that road to nowhere is visible on the way to Hot Springs Cove. Around the bend lies the Megin River Class A provincial park, a reminder of the power of taking a stand for Nature. It is time to stop logging Clayoquot's rainforests, and bank them for the future.

Opinions of Monday, 23 November 2020
Columnist: Kwaku Badu
Bow your heads in shame: Didn't Rawlings complain about your insulting behaviour?
Late Jerry John Rawlings
There is no denying or ignoring the fact that the late Rawlings sadly raised concerns over the insulting behaviour of the so-called diehard NDC supporters, many of whom do not even have passing acquaintance with the formation of the party he joyously autographed with his blood.
In retirement, the NDC founder and the first president of the Fourth Republic, the late President Jerry John Rawlings, would now and then, contribute to the national discourse.
He kept the successive governments on their toes, as a matter of fact. He thus earned the accolade, Dr Boom, for his vociferous and the no-nonsense approach.
To his credit, though, the late President Rawlings was the chief critic of his own party (NDC). Indeed, the late President Rawlings did not shy away from pointing out the erstwhile Mahama administration's unpardonable incompetence and corrupt practices.
In fact, the late President Rawlings commanded a lot of respect among the party foot soldiers. Ironically, however, the leadership of the NDC committed political suicide for refusing to accept the fact that the late President Rawlings was indeed revered by the party foot soldiers more than any other member of the party.
If for nothing at all, the late President Rawlings founded the NDC and managed to bring along a lot of supporters to his corner. It was thus extremely incredulous for anybody to suggest somewhat impetuously that former President Rawlings was irrelevant in the umbrella fraternity.
Regrettably, the NDC's boisterous brats who are not privy to their party's history kept rebuking Rawlings for rightly expressing his grievances over the irreversible mess in the party he undersigned with his blood. .
If you may remember, a few years ago, some people calling themselves NDC supporters, torn their founder, the late Rawlings, into shreds with unabashed disgust.
The late Rawlings's crime was to candidly fret thy soul with grief, and wondered if the deadly armed robbery attacks in the country were real robberies and not the work of unpatriotic partisan creatures motivated from either within or without to undermine the nation's security in order to pave the way for certain parochial ambitions.
The late President Rawlings concerns back then stemmed from the fact that some people were unblushingly hopping from one Radio/Television station to another nagging, shrieking and grouching over the serious national disaster such as the bloody armed robbery attacks without proffering any practicable solutions.
It is absolutely true that the so-called brassbound NDC supporters attitude towards the late Rawlings was extremely appalling. Take, for example, the late Rawlings had this to say during the NDC's 2012 National Congress: "Mr. President, fellow Ghanaians it is said that we should not throw out the baby with the bath water, but what we do when some of the babies in the tub are babies with hard teeth, biting and spewing some very horrible invectives? Should they not be lowered out with the dirty water? After all one bad nut is all it takes to spoil the taste in your mouth".
"When we find ourselves at a wooden bridge with some planks rotten, do we wait to get new planks before removing the rotten ones or do we remove the rotten ones immediately?" (JJ Rawlings, August 30, 2012).
If you would recall, during the State of the Nation Address on Thursday 8th February 2018, aside from the extraneous and incessant heckling of President Akufo-Addo, the minority MPs allegedly disrespected their founder, the late Rawlings and his wife, Konadu Agyemang Rawlings.
The Minority MPs conspicuously cheered their Doyen Mahama and ignominiously 'catcalled' at their founder, the late Rawlings and his wife, Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings.
It all began when President Akufo-Addo was blissfully introducing the dignitaries present at the State of the Nation Address. The Minority MPs cheered plangently at the mentioning of Ex-President Mahama's name and hooted upon hearing the names of the founder and his wife. Their conduct, so to speak, was destitute of honour and respect.
Indeed, it was quite strange for the so-called brassbound supporters to disrespectfully hoot at the very person whose brainchild (NDC) has rather made them 'somebody's'.
Personally, I was extremely depressed in spirits and could hardly contain my emotional intelligence. In a state of utter puzzled countenance, I soliloquised: "how could human beings be so ungrateful?" "How on earth could any human being show utter disrespect to the breast that fed him/her?" "The world is not fair indeed."
I need not be belabouring on the evolution of National Democratic Congress (NDC), but for the sake of balanced annotation, I shall give a brief history of the making of NDC at some point.
In fact, some recalcitrant members within the NDC made it a habit of abusing their founder. Take, for example, prior to the 2016 election, some elements in the NDC were reported to have called for their founder Rawlings's blood.
Back then, the late President Rawlings sadly expressed his surprise as to how and why some people within the NDC, the party he founded could orchestrate needless attacks on him.
"The ex-President cited the petition presented by the Great Consolidated Popular Party (GCPP) leader, Henry Lartey to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) and the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) asking them to investigate circumstances under which he (Mr Rawlings) reportedly received an amount of $5 million from the late Nigerian Head of State, General Sani Abacha, as gift in 1998.
The late Rawlings was reported to have said that his own people in the NDC were behind the ploy to sully his hard-won reputation (See: '$5m Abacha cash, NDC chasing me-says Rawlings'; dailyguideafrica.com, 18/10/2016).
In fact, back then, I was not the least surprised that some elements in the NDC could go to such an extent of bringing the name of their party founder into disrepute. After all, didn't the party General Secretary, Asiedu Nketia, once call Rawlings a barking dog?
In so far as I was not a fan of the late Rawlings, I do not think the man deserved all the vile attacks from the members of the party he worked strenuously to bring to existence.
It is against this background that Rawlings relished the opportunity to clean the party he cherished so much.
Given that the vast majority of the members of the current NDC executive were proselytised and christened into the umbrella fraternity by the late President Rawlings, one would have expected an outright condemnation of the incessant insults directed at the founder of the party, but that was not been the case.
However the alleged sour relations between the founder and some of the current national party executives, the late Rawlings unconditional love for his brainchild (NDC) did not taper off, not by any stretch of the imagination.
In fact, one does not have to look far for the evidence of the late President Rawlings's devoted attachment to the party he gleefully autographed with his blood.
His euphonious speeches to commemorate the June 4 1979 and the 31st December 1981 coup d'états were clear manifestations of his unbridled attachment to the party he founded in 1992.
The late President Rawlings lamented: "Need I remind you that the NDC was built on principles and values that emerged as a result of circumstances that led to our birth?"
"The fallen heroes we honour today expect of us in the least, never to relapse into those same old days. But that has not been the case.
"In the wake of the revolution we made pronouncements that summed up the state of affairs that prevailed then.
"I admonished back then that; "Ghana should be a land where it will be accepted practice and norm that those who earn the privilege to govern, should administer in humility, conscious that they are the servants of the people and are ready to submit themselves and their actions to public scrutiny and accountability(Rawlings, 2016)."
Honestly, the conduct of the so-called NDC diehard supporters reinforces Kwame Sefa Khayi's favourite and melodious rendition, which goes: 'Ghanaian politics is saturated with hypocrisy and dishonesty'.

Hustle Cat review impressions
Jess Famularo, MARCH 15, 2016
Cat cafes are magical places in their own right — a space where you can cozy up with a dozen or so kitties (likely after bribing them with treats), hot drinks, and, sometimes, even cake.
These feline-friendly eateries are still rare in the United States, but luckily Date Nighto has the next best thing. Their newest game, Hustle Cat, features a coterie of cutie cat cafe workers, each with their own secrets and personal turmoil, although the game never ventures too far into angsty territory. As the newest employee, you get to form relationships with the friendly cast before selecting that special someone with whom you'll form a more romantic bond.
In between all of the cat-sitting, social media blitzes, pizza parties and early morning basement rendezvous, you'll delve into the mysteries of A Cat's Paw (the aforementioned cafe) as you seek to undo a strange curse plaguing the shop.
The game plays like most visual novels/dating sims. I appreciated Hustle Cat's character creator, which allows you to choose your preferred pronoun before selecting from a series of non-binary character designs. Once you customize the protagonist that best suits you, you'll be immediately thrown into the story.
Hustle Cat is most definitely a visual novel, so you'll spend much of the time reading. Choices pop up on occasion that steer the story on one of its many branching paths. You always have the option to save and go back on decisions, and Hustle Cat boasts an auto-save feature that works quite well in case you forget.
My first run through (romancing Finley) left me a tad disappointed in the story department. I never learned much about who the big bad was, or where all of this magic business stemmed from, not to mention several plot points that were never resolved.
I thought this would be the game's biggest flaw, but it quickly became one of its strengths. Hustle Cat reveals its plot in a careful, steady drip that rewards those who explore each character's storyline across multiple playthroughs. Exploring each character arc leads to something new, slowly building the story until you unlock the final, secret narrative branch that brings the game to its oh-so-satisfying conclusion.
The game takes maybe three to four hours to play through on your first try, and after that you can speed through additional attempts with the game's handy fast forward button. What could've easily been a slog turns into a determined rush to uncover more of the tale, aided by Hustle Cat's breezy writing.
The characters drive this story, and all of them are nuanced, likeable people. From the eccentric former goth-turned-cafe-owner Graves, to the skilled (yet withdrawn) barista Hayes, each character has their own fascinating back story. As you get to know each character better, you'll help them deal with any manner of very human issues, from social anxiety disorder to internet harassment.
While these stories have the potential to get heavy, they tend to focus on the character overcoming or learning to cope with these challenges in some way. It's easy to identify with these people, and seeing them succeed despite their issues lends the game a positive spin and encourages players who might be struggling with their own personal baggage.
Hustle Cat's characters are all 3D, well-realized figures. It's especially notable, though, that the game's protagonist, Avery, is not the silent type—a common staple in most dating sims/visual novels. Avery has their own personality—flawed (I feel like whipping out the vacuum cleaner every time we return to Avery's apartment), yet strong-willed, possessing a great sense of humor, but also a bit of a temper. It's easy for players to identify with Avery, allowing them to connect with the story effortlessly.
The game is filled to the brim with pop and internet culture references, adding to the game's charm. One character channels the #blocked hashtag into a magical attack to combat internet harassers who hunt her down in real life in a particularly empowering turn of events. At another turn, you might catch a sly, self-aware dig at the dating sim genre, or a surprise nod to your favorite podcast.
All of this is visualized with lovely hand-drawn artwork. The cat designs are especially endearing. The first sight of Jelly Donut, Hustle Cat's feline internet celebrity, will elicit audible "awwws". The backgrounds and characters are also lovingly designed.
Playing Hustle Cat is like spending time with good friends. It's warm and comfy in its simplicity. It will leave you craving a good cappuccino when all is said and done—something to savor as you think back fondly on a memorable cast of fuzzy kittens and good-looking baristas.

Why we like it: People went absolutely mad for VTNZ's post-apocalyptic brand platform last year starring its Mad Max-style Road Commander. The latest iteration also delivers the goods with a bit of humour and, of course, a bit of road rage to launch the news of earlier opening hours.
Why we like it: This ad is the summer update on Countdown's 'We can help with that' TVC launched in winter last year. It recalls the cheeky nature of the original ad, but thankfully leaves the rhyming voiceover in the past. It's crisp and clear while remaining on-brand for the supermarket.
Why we like it: Who better than a telco to highlight the importance of talking about and celebrating diversity? This ad tugs on the heartstrings without being sentimental. Rather, it tells the real story of a young transgender New Zealander, Hunter, and his process of coming out through the point-of-view of his mother. The collaboration between Spark and Outline NZ is a significant one and it's really exciting to see such a big brand raise awareness for a hugely important cause.
Why we like it: This ad blurs the lines between commercial and music video with no dialogue or voiceover to spell things out. Make no mistake, there's bucket loads of product placement so you couldn't mistake it for a dreamy summer-vibes video, but it's unobtrusive and aurally subtle – making it a pleasant watch while waiting for an OnDemand show to start. It's a good thing the weather's been so nice though, otherwise, we'd be both starving for some spud fries and craving a beach day.

If you—if there's no battle, then there's no victory. But you've got to have a battle to have victory. If it was just given to you, it wouldn't be—wouldn't be no—wouldn't be a victory. But he that overcometh is the one who has the victory. So Jesus came to the earth; He had a battle; He won the victory. And tonight we have a battle, and with Christ, we can have the victory.

Q: How do I change the color of each letter in a sentence in LaTeX? I've been struggling in find the solution for the following problem.
If I want to change the color of each letter in a sentence in latex, how can I do it? Let's say that I want to write "Merry Christmas" using the colors red and green and alternating between them.
I want to define a command and use a forloop to change the color of each letter, but I don't know:

*

*How can I find the number of letters in a sentence (excluding spaces) to give the upper limit for the forloop?

*How can I define a string with the two colors to use in the forloop?
So far my silly "solution" is to do it manually, like:
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
  \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
  \usepackage{xcolor}

\begin{document}

\textcolor{red}{M}\textcolor{green}{e}\textcolor{red}{r}
\textcolor{green}{r}\textcolor{red}{y}\textcolor{green}{C}
\textcolor{red}{h}\textcolor{green}{r}\textcolor{red}{i}
\textcolor{green}{s}\textcolor{red}{t}\textcolor{green}{m}
\textcolor{red}{a}\textcolor{green}{s}\textcolor{red}{!}

\end{document}

From what I saw I can define an environment and use a loop to alternate between the colors, I don't have a sensilble solution, but it would be something like:
\newenvironment{redgreen}{
  \forloop{WORDNUMBER}{1}{\VALUE{WORDNUMBER} < \LENGHT{WORDNUMBER}}{
    \textcolor{red}{WORDNUMBER}
    \textcolor{green}{WORDNUMBER + 1}
    WORDNUMBER = WORDNUMBER + 2
  }
}

The parts with capital letters I know won't work, I just want to give an example of what I'm willing to do. I want to find a way to get the number of letters in the sentence that I would put inside the redgreen block and somehow use the forloop to change the color of each letter in the sentence alternating between red and green. I'm not sure how the forloop works in latex, so everything in the example above may be trash.
