Not a long time ago, in the year 2011, Australia passed the ACMA (Australian Communication and Media Authority) that ultimately resulted in blacklisting 500 plus websites. With such acts one can definitely figure out the standpoint of Australian government towards the internet freedom and privacy. This is turn has generated an intense need for an efficient Australia VPN service provider.
This article shall be helpful to you if want to take an overview on the VPN service provided in Australia and the trusted providers available for VPN services. You will also get to know that which VPN providers have an Australian IP address included in their plans.
When we talk about choosing the best Australia VPN service we have to do an intensive comparative analysis of the services being provided by various VPN companies as there are more than 100 providers to choose.
ExpressVPN is one of the top rated VPN providers in Australia while covering 23 countries under its umbrella. Their customer service is 24/7 and they have guides about absolutely everything. The plans are starting from 8.32 USD onwards.
When we talk about cost effectiveness, this VPN provider certainly takes the game away as the plans are starting as low as 4.95 USD. Based in Romania, this company is giving its services to 12 countries currently. ibVPN also have a unique torrent service, which is quite rare for VPN services.

Montreal architecture firm Atelier Boom-Town has covered this holiday home overlooking the estuary of Quebec's Saint Lawrence River in cedar planks that will gradually silver in contact with the sea air.
The holiday residence named Driftwood Chalet was completed in Quebec's La Malbaie. The area known for views of the estuary, which is located downstream of the Saint Lawrence River.
"Between sky and river, this small structure stands in an impressive landscape," said Atelier Boom-Town in a project description.
"The development takes shape here, like a piece of driftwood, carried by time and currents, offering a haven of relaxation, humble and discreet, set against the opulent beauty of the landscape."
"The oxidation from contact with sea air will gradually give the cedar the silvery hue characteristic of seaside dwellings," said Atelier Boom-Town.
"Each space is designed to meet the needs of occupants, consistent with a minimalist Scandinavian approach," the studio added.
One of the volumes contains the home's social spaces, and is oriented perpendicular to the river below. At one end of the open kitchen, living and dining room, a full-height window provides sweeping views of the surrounding landscape.
Along the southern facade, sliding glass doors give out onto a terrace framed by the home's two wings.
A corridor leads from here towards the home's three bedrooms and features a built-in reading nook facing the landscape part way along.
Atelier Boom-Town, whose other projects include a black house in Quebec's Laurentian mountain range, sought to design a compact, efficient layout to minimise the environmental impact of construction.
"Building within limited means forces one to limit surface area, which reduces one's ecological as well as physical footprint," said the studio.
"It's an opportunity to build ecologically, to question how to occupy space without taking up space," it added. "The compact layout of the construction keeps intact the natural look of the site."
La Malbaie has seen several vacation homes built recently that take advantage of its natural landscapes. Other nearby examples include an "abstract and intriguing" home by Alain Carle Architecte, and a contemporary extension to a historic property by Anik Péloquin.

What to expect during a microblading appointment
Skincare after microblading
What are the risks and complications of microblading?
The verdict and frequently asked questions on microblading
An introduction to microblading
The American actress Saoirse Ronan once said that "if you don't have eyebrows, you don't have a face", this quote couldn't ring truer in today's visual society led by popular beauty trends, one of the most recent of which is microblading...
If you are reading this and haven't the slightest clue as to what microblading is, the technique basically allows for you to have semi-permanent eyebrows through the use of a handheld tattoo device that creates the illusion of fine hair strokes.
Eyebrows are an ever-changing trend, in the late 90's and the early 2000's, eyebrow styles that were all the rage were tweezed to within an inch of their existence, some of which had an arch so defined they looked like arrows sitting on faces. Then along came threading, this technique which uses a cotton thread to rid your eyebrows of unwanted hair overtook the popularity of tweezing in western cultures.
As with most trends, eyebrow shapes and appearances have come full circle and have, once again started becoming a little 'bigger', 'bushier', more pronounced and even darker, moving away from the thin and not-so-bushy triangles that we all cringe at when looking at old photos of ourselves.
In staying with the latest trends, many women (and some men) are looking to return to more natural, beautifully shaped, well-defined, fluffy and feathery brows. Unfortunately, not all of us our well-endowed, or shall we say, 'well-enbrowed' in the brow department and only have a few strands holding on for dear life, as a result of years of over-tweezing or more rarely, due to health conditions such as alopecia. And so, in this day and age where nothing is impossible when it come to getting what we want aesthetically, microblading is the latest 'go to' for wow brows.
Interestingly enough microblading originated in Asia more than 25 years ago and goes by a number of different names such as eyebrow embroidery, eyebrow feathering, micro-stoking, even brow-micropigmentation and 3D brows1. In 2015 microblading became increasingly popular in western society, truly coming into its own in 2017.
With this trend taking the beauty world by storm, it's time to put down that eyebrow pencil, step away from the tweezers and dye and step into the world of semi-permanent brows, sculpted, shaped, arched and darkened to your personal preference.
What is microblading?
Microblading is a semi-permanent and manual form of a cosmetic tattooing, however, unlike traditional tattooing which uses an electronic machine, microblading makes use of a handheld microblade (which resembles a pen) to apply each hair stroke. The blade of the instrument, or microblade, consists of a row of fine needles which are dipped into ink (colour pigment). Once dipped, the blade will be pushed into the skin, cutting in a slicing motion, drawing on each hair stroke to create the allusion of more natural and fuller eyebrows1. Hundreds of hair strokes will be created to build a more textured look, resembling your own eyebrow hair.
Microblading will be performed by a trained technician, however, the technique is not regulated or monitored, and the technician performing the procedure does not necessarily need to have a specialised license to do so.
The biggest part of the appeal of microblading is that it lasts for roughly 12 to 18 months, fading gradually over time, making it a more permanent option than eyebrow pencils and powders and creating a more natural look as opposed to the more solid appearance of classic eyebrow tattoos. Another great aspect of the procedure is that regardless of whether you have bushy brows and want them tamed and shaped, or have nearly-invisible blonde brows, or hardly any hair at all, you can get microblading done, with just a few considerations.

Last week, Antonio challenged me to recycle without use of my car, kerbside collection or compost.
So imagine my delight when Natasha sent me a 'green cat' challenge. Although Antonio's challenge was hard I think this one is far more difficult.
Natasha has 7 cats who between them create 30 empty tins, one cardboard box and here's the problem: 6 x 10 litre bags of clay based cat litter. As you can imagine, this is a staggering amount of heavy waste.
5 of the cats are still kittens, so getting rid of the litter trays is not an option at the moment.
Natasha has 3 trays to take care of which get lined with newspaper to save on cleaning and are emptied 4 times a day.
Natasha's other challenge is her limited budget. She has tried the sawdust pellet litter which was composted and she got on well with, but on her current budget this is not feasible.
Unfortunately, I don't think I have a cunning plan up my sleeve or anything new to wow Natasha with, but here's the (poop) scoop. Every year we throw away 2 million tonnes of cat litter into the landfill. Clay based litter is obtained by strip mining which is an incredibly destructive process removing millions of tonnes of earth just so our cats can take a dump. Therefore, Natasha is right in highlighting this issue because it's a biggie.
Personally, if they were my cats I would fill the litter trays with soil instead of a shop bought litter to save money and find an area in my garden where I could put the soil back again after use. Just dig a small hole and throw it in; after all, once these kittens grow up they'll be doing their business in the garden anyway. This might even mean Natasha gets a neater garden because they'll be attracted to where she is already putting their used litter rather than going all over the place.
Granted, using soil is more messy in the house than clay based litter, but in my past experience, you get clumps of whatever litter you use strewn across the house anyway, so you always have to regularly brush up. Cat litter has a habit of getting stuck in the pads of a cat's paws; I distinctly remember one of my cats whom I'm quite sure used to deliberately pick up clumps of the stuff between her claws and throw it across the room in defiance.
Why was she fed up of her clay litter? Because it's potentially pretty toxic stuff. I don't often branch out into the wider health / environmental issues of products, but I will have a quick mention about cat litter which you can take or leave as you wish. Some clay based litters use Sodium Bentonite as the clumping agent, which, in some sensitive cats can cause respiratory disorders due to the dust it creates. When a cat breathes in the dust, (and s/he will when they're scraping and sniffing around in there) there is a small risk that these particles get into the lungs and then expand (just as it does when they wee on it), which can cause problems.
Likewise, cats are meticulous creatures and if they have the dust on their fur and clean it; again the moisture in their body can react with it and cause dehydration – not good for kitties digestion or kidneys.
Now I'm not an authority on this but I'm just sayin' that this is what I've heard and it's worth bearing in mind… This might make cleaning up garden soil more attractive ;).
I'm the kind of person who looks at the root cause of things rather than treating things at symptom level. So let's talk about poop. Poop is a by product of what you put in the other end of the tube. Put simply – what you put in, you get out. This means the other option is to look at diet.
7 cats using 3 trays which have to be cleaned 4 times a day is a whole lot of catty business to be dealing with. Switching to a more natural diet (ie the raw food diet) has been shown to slow down that whole process from one end to the other. It might seem more expensive initially, but your cat will need less to eat than tinned food (which is, after all, only about 4% meat and the rest is fillers so the fillers are getting passed out), they will be healthier (so less veterinary bills) and they will poo less which means less litter and waste to deal with.
So I'm not sure there has been any massive revelation there, but I've done my best to come up with some options and hope some of it is helpful. There are lots of cat owners on my zero waste, so please share your insights in the comments below and let's help Natasha be the proud owner of the greenest cats in Britain.
Natasha is a gifted and creative artist; she makes 'new stuff out of old stuff' and is a born recycler, so she wants her kitties to reflect her lifestyle choices. You can check out her blog or follow her updates on facebook.
I have just written about having cat litter trays inside, as we have kittens and one cat can't go out until she has ben 'vetted' LOL, I knew that clay litter was bad but couldn't remember why so thank you for filling the gap in my knowledge.
I would love to compost the cat litter but everything that I have read says that it shouldn't be used anywhere near where food is grown, does feeding raw meat make it safe to compost with everything else?
It was all pretty much as I suspected really!
I do have some good news though, the kittens have started going outside and they have their very own compost filled 'litter tray' outside which my husband made from an old wardrobe, that they seem happy to use. I have now decicided that the compost bin we have is now to be soley for cat use. I can still compost my food waste in ti but everything coming out will be for cat use only. We are also, already, emptying the trays less, as the kittens are getting bigger their sleep, eat, poop cycle is getting longer so they don't need to go so often – which is great!
Also the point about feeding them fresh food is a very good one. One of the kittens won't eat cat food of any type so she is on a fresh meat or fish diet (alng with some corn on the cob or peas – which she loves!) and she eats far less than the others. We often visit our local fisherman who refuses to give me the fish guts for the cats as he says it will make them ill but is happy to give us a small mackeral of two for them instead.
They get a whole chicken once a week and that actually lasts them 2 days, so I am very keen to switch all their processed foods for fresh.
I will look into the sawdust idea too, I'm happy with filling the litter trays with soil but Mr Salami isn't so keen on the mess!
Thanks so much for looking into it for me, and all other cats owners. I had no idea actually how awful clay litter is so that is the first thing I am changing!
Yeah we had this problem!!! I have an elderly cat who doesn't DO snow so for four months last year we had to do the cat litter thing.
We did use the wood pellets thoguh which as pointed out are compostable (we had a seperate "dirty" compost bin under some trees which things like cat litter and dog poo went in).
Saw dust is ok but will get tracked around the house! A better option is wood shavings, you see the tiny bales in supermarkets for bunnies? DON'T BUY THEM!!! Go to your local horse feed shop and buy the BIG bales, about 500 x the amount for @ £5!.
Soil is a do-able option, also leaf litter if you have access.
I know the ppl at Touchwood use beach sand for their cats which is obvioulsy free, but only any good if you live near a beach.
We experimented with ash from the log burner but found it too messy lol.
Another long term option could be making a secure run outside for the cats, a cat flap into a a garden area where they can do their business and you just pick it up like dog poo every day (and compost it!).
It sounds like a lot of money but I bet it would pay itself back within a year when you consdier the price of cat litter.
Please don't take away sand (or stones) from beaches. It's one of those "if everyone did it" things – especially at sixty litres of material (a day?!!) it can soon have a huge impact on habitats and even erosion. Leaf litter in woods is also an important part of the ecosystem that would be used up faster than it could replenish itself.
katy, i feel compelled to compliment your natural ethics, aside from all cat concerns, we, the so-called earth stewards must think twice about using far too much of free resources; because we so far outnumber cats and dogs, and soon will have used our immediate surroundings to rock bottom..
@Katy</a Its obvioulsy no good for ppl with many cats but surely materials have to come from somewhere? Doesn't clay cat litter errode eco systems too? Absolutly leaf litter should not be taken from public woodland, what I meant was from your garden, ppl rake up a lot of leaves off lawns this time of year and many ppl burn them, left to dry they make excellent cat litter you can then compost.
@Katy: No Katy, not per day! Per week or just over and I gave Mrs Green the absolute maximum worst case useage, when I had 7 cats that couldn't go outside, generally it's 40L which I know is still not good hence asking Mrs Green to look into alternatives for me.
Very young animals, including humans have very short, sleep, eat, poop cycles so have litter trays have to been cleaned more often, exactly the same as a very young baby needs it's nappy changing more often than say a 1yr old would.
As far as I was aware it's illegal to remove pebbles or sand from beaches in large quantities anyway? Maybe I'm wrong about that.
@Kelly: I do like your suggestion about trying at horse feed places for wood shavings though, less messy than compost and still compostable!
As I said to Mrs Green I have experimented with using compost produced ourselves, this works fine for outside usage but is incredible messy in the house something like the wood shavings could be the answer. I can't see that we will ever be without a litter tray as from personal experience, with the many cats I have owned, they are incredibly lazy and if it's too windy (which it is here on the South coast) or too wet they won't go to the toilet outside if they can avoid it and I'd rather have one tray than have them use corners of my carpet!
I am very keen though to ensure that my keeping and enjoying them has as little environmental impact as possible.
I have struggled with my best option (on here, I think) and my current attempt is to flush the poo and put the rest in the kerbside garden/kitchen waste for municipal composting. Now this compost cooks at a sufficiently high temperature to decompose bone, so should I be putting the poo in as well instead of putting it down the loo? I don't want to be making seals ill!
It is, (to quote DD1),doing my head in. Whatever I do isn't quite right.
My only suggestion is that there are instructions online for making your own catlitter. It's most practical if you have children who enjoy making a mess in the garden, as you soak newspaper, strain it and then dry the pellets, but we had fun doing it in the summer. We (almost) followed this tutorial http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/08/diy-newspaper-cat-litter.php I think we did less rinsing.
There were some really interesting thoughts here, thanks Mrs Green. The cat tray and litter from our cat is still a significant issue in our house. We currently use Catsan which is apparently made of chalk and quartz sand and lasts longer than the normal clay versions. I would love to get rid of the tray, but our cat is a bit of a ninny. She only has one eye so we can't let her out after dark (the one time we did, we didn't see her for 8 weeks and were lucky to get her back) which means she has to have a tray. The most frsutrating thing though is that, even in the summer when we leave the door open for her, she will come in from outside, use her tray, and then go back out again!
I like the idea of switching to soil, but our garden is so tiny that there is literally nowhere that we could dig. So I might investigate the sawdust option which sounds cool.
The other problem we have with our litter tray is that when Dora has left a solid deposit, my other half clears it up by putting it in a nappy bag. As someone who is trying to reduce plastic usage, obviously this is a big problem for me – so any suggestions for alternative scoop and disposal would be most welcome!
catless in the heartland…i suffer the phantom aches in my arms, from not having a cat, for me, a siamese or a tiger, our last one was an orange one, yes we are cat people too, one or two at most…and neutered for the fact that there are millions of stray cats in the US and the toll on birds, garbage and food chain is too long and hard.
so: toxoplasmosis pathogens are too great a risk to place the cat litter within the food garden or playground areas…if using organic litter such as a mix of sand, newspaper shreds or sawdust, then make a 'special' corner far from house where to make your daily deposits, add some ashes on top to deter feral cats which could bring unknown germs to the local felines.
mrs green, thanks for the food tips, i always save the less tasty bits of sinew or gristle for the animals, it exercises their jaws and makes them believe they are free spirits on a hunt. of course we have wild game a plenty here, so no cost involved…but the less savory edges of a dinner entree will not harm a cat anymore than the mystery ingredients in commercial cat-food.
ps: tip for cat indigestion ( which might smell poorly in litter) a spoon of cottage cheese, or whey if needed.
I am being super cautious here I think, as after all the older cats add their faeces and urine to the soil directly, around salads, root crops etc…(!) but I prefer to control the compostables in this manner….
failing that I would use leaf litter or soil or compost and remove the poo , flush it and compost the rest in the same way.
Just wanted to challenge the assumption that cats should go outside. They are generally invasive exotics. In the US, you must sign a contract when you get a kitten or cat from the shelter or a breeder stating that you will not let it outside. This also helps with strays and with health issues. I realize it's quite a foreign concept. The time I let my Brit boyfriend convince me to met my cat go out, the cat contracted a virus and died. Never again.
I am lucky enough to live in a fairly remote area, away from roads, other houses and the only other local cat is my neighbors. I feel comfortable allowing my cat to roam in this situation.
However if I lived in an urban area with fast roads and high population (of ppl AND cats) then I wouldn't allow my cat outside.
Its all about risk assessment.
Indoor cats may live longer by not getting run over (although my current cat is 13 and still here!) but they can suffer from other ailments like UTI and obesity. If not properly stimulate they can suffer from stress and boredom and indoor cats have a much higher rate of behavioural problems.
They are not dogs, are not (generally) taken for walks for exercise and stimulation, they are still in essence semi-feral animals. Let a dog off in the wilds and he is likely to die, a cat would adapt pretty damn quickly.
I am happy to allow my cat to hunt, climb, stalk and play outside and she is happy to come in at night for cuddles.
Aso a recent long term study by the RSPB hows that cat population has no direct affect on bird populations, its an urban myth. Food supply and weather are the biggest killers of wild birds.
There are many things that Americans do with their animals that truly horrifies me but allowing a cat out is not one of them.
I visited the animal sanctuary Teckels last year. In their cattery they use a compostable cat litter (made of wood or recycled paper, I forget which). The poos are scooped out and can be flushed down the toilet then the leftover litter can be dug into the ground to decompose. I've not tried it myself but there was a gentleman there buying 20 bags of it for his adopted cats. He said it works out cheaper than buying it from the supermarket and obviously it's supporting Teckels too. Less than a tenner for a 25kg bag I think.
Contact details here if you wanted to find out more about it – I'm sure they'd be delighted to be featured.
ps. they welcome volunteers for cat cuddling too!


Thick, rough skin under your toenails is uncomfortable and sometimes painful. Thickening toe skin may be a sign of fungus on the toes, which can be socially embarrassing and may cause toenail loss. Some toe fungi spread quickly to other toes, so it important to treat the condition when it is first detected. Even with your physician's help, softening and thinning the skin under your toenails may take some time. With the proper care and some patience, your toe skin can return to its original soft, supple state.

Fox's Andy Samberg-led sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine wrapped up its first season last week, and the show is expanding its cast for season two. Joel McKinnon Miller and Dirk Blocker, who play veteran detectives Scully and Hitchcock respectively, have been promoted to series regulars for the second season, Deadline reports. The two actors had recurring roles in the first season, both appearing in every episode but they weren't officially credited with the rest of the regular cast. Winner of two Golden Globes already in its short time on the air, Brooklyn Nine-Nine received an early second season renewal last month.

Q: Are all binaries executable in x86 architecture? I went through the following statement in a book.

the executable target binaries from an embedded distribution will not run on your PC, but are targeted to the architecture and processor of your embedded system. (Of course, if your embedded Linux distribution targets the x86 architecture, this statement does not apply.)

Are all binaries executable in x86 architecture?
Can someone brief?

A: The statement means that if you cross-compile a program to an embedded platform you can't run it on your desktop system that has an x86 CPU, unless the target platform happens to be x86 also. It doesn't imply that an x86 CPU understands ARM instructions for example.

Five chemical miracles in 2 Kings jumped out at me during a recent Bible study.
1. Remember when Elisha put salt in bad water to make it good?
2. In chapter 4 Elisha trusted God to multiply a widow's jar of oil.
how much oil was enough?
3. Elisha had to alter the stew his servant made out of strange gourds for a group of prophets.
4. Elisha fed a hundred men from twenty loaves of barley bread.
5. The time that Elisha made an ax float was also a chemical miracle considering the weight of the metal and its shape.
Chemical miracles (and all miracles) in the Bible help me to know God better. Of course he can manipulate the physical laws of chemistry, because he created them. But there's something else: who would ever dream of making a heavy metal object like an ax float by throwing a stick in the water, or of solving a widow's financial woes by taking the oil she has and cloning it? Through these particular phenomena, I see not only the power of God, but also his creativity combined with the desire to rescue people in need. People just like us.


CHHC Celebrates 20 years–we need your help!
Our little co-op opened its doors for the first time in February, 1998, and families started moving in. The neighbourhood was a lot different back then–there were less businesses, less towers, the PAL was yet to be built.
We still have a lot of those original members, and others who have come, contributed, and then gone on to other places.
We would like to hold a celebration/party to celebrate our 20th anniversary in mid-late June, and we need your help!
Our vision is to host an afternoon-long event; something more family-friendly for the younger crowds in the afternoon (akin to our usual summer social BBQ) and then something on the roof for the older folks later in the evening. We'd also like to include some kind of legacy project; something that marks where we've been, and will be there for the future, as well.
If you are interested, please join us Wednesday night at 7 pm, April 25 in the Amenity Room.

Are you thinking about losing some weight and wondering if it's possible to go about it in an enjoyable way? Well, the truth is it really can be something you enjoy doing.
of course, it always helps when you have some really good information to work with and you can get some really good ones from the Internet. Simply by doing some solid research can bring forth some pretty inspiring results.
With a huge collection of tips and ideas floating around all over the place, it is your own researches that will reel them all in and put them together into a coherent list.
Once you have your tips, it is a good idea to sift through what you have for duplicates and then to weed out the ones that are clearly unusable, at least by you. Then you can further whittle down the list to those tips that you believe you can work with.
That's because it is no good having some great ideas that might work really well for someone else but be totally impractical for you. What you will be left with after this process will be some really good, workable methods and ideas that you can then put into practice for your own benefit in losing weight in as easy, effective but above all enjoyable way.
In fact, plenty of people have really fallen in love with the idea that you can actually shed the excess pounds without practically killing yourself to do it. There are so many really great snippets of information available for anyone who has the time and inclination to go looking for them that no one really has any excuses for being overweight these days.
This could even be a part of the answer to the nation's obesity problem. In fact, the Internet has given this generation such a boost in terms of providing all the information you could ever want on just about anything and it is all for free.
You'll find that just by searching around on search engines you'll manage to locate a load of really helpful websites like this one all dealing with various aspects of understand the process of losing weight from understanding dieting to taking exercise and all else in between. You can even find some that deal with the mental aspect of why we are overweight and what we can do for ourselves with our own mental attitudes to combat that condition.
It is really eye opening when you start to educate yourself as to the real reasons why we get fat and why the numbers are increasing rather than decreasing with all this information available to all regular folks with access to the Internet.
When you have come to the conclusion that it's high time to start losing some of those extra pounds that have been piling on lately, just remember that there are many options available to you in order to do that. To be truly successful in an enjoyable way, a lot depends upon your personal needs in terms of the number of pounds you need to lose, your height and build, your current diet and your lifestyle.
If you lead a fast paced life and find you have little time for the more conventional types of diet, there is an excellent option from diet food delivery programs such as Nutrisystem or Medifast for example. These programs really do take all the work and hassle out of dieting while providing you with a complete solution to your needs.
Their diets are very easy to follow and you probably won't find a more convenient way to lose weight, since they deliver all your meals for a whole four week period covering the three main meals every day plus two additional snacks for eating between meals. All the food is delivered to your home so you don't even need to visit the grocery store.
If this sounds like an extremely convenient and easy to do diet solution, you would be correct!
Perhaps you read about this way of dieting in one of the many reviews that are published online, or perhaps you saw an advertisement on TV or in a magazine. Perhaps you already read my very own analysis of Nutrisystem here on this site.
Either way, you will find that there probably is no easier way to diet in a way that not only provides all the nutritional requirements for your body in a collection of low calorie meals, but presents the food in a varied and exciting way that makes it enjoyable and fulfilling too.
And that is one of the simplest rules of success when reducing your body's size through diet. Keeping things simple and making it convenient and easy makes sticking with the diet through to the end much easier for people.
Most failures come from quitting a diet early because it was either too complicated to follow or the dieter simply got bored with it or they didn't enjoy it.
With a simple, convenient and interesting diet, this doesn't happen. So the dieter is far more likely to complete the diet and lose many more pounds because of it!
So don't put it off any longer. Start putting some of this into practice right away cause there is a thin person waiting to get out of a fat body!

Explainer-Russia's potent cyber and information warfare capabilities
Andrew Osborn and Gabrielle Tétrault-Farber
December 19, 2020, 9:42 AM ·4 min read
An aerial view shows the skyline of the capital Moscow in Russia
By Andrew Osborn and Gabrielle Tétrault-Farber
MOSCOW (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Friday that Russia was responsible for a cyber attack that embedded malicious code inside U.S. government software systems and those of other governments and companies across the world.
The Kremlin has always denied Moscow's involvement in cyber attacks against the West. It has said that Russia had nothing to do with this latest assault.
Here is some information about Russia's possible motives for such an attack, and details about Russian cyber offensive and information warfare capabilities.
POSSIBLE RUSSIAN MOTIVE
The Kremlin has said many times it wants to improve ties with the United States, which are at a post-Cold War low and strained by issues from Ukraine to Syria.
But it also openly views the United States as Russia's main geopolitical adversary and as a threat to its national security.
President Vladimir Putin has accused Washington of starting a new arms race and NATO of moving military infrastructure closer to Russia's borders, and has complained about U.S. sanctions, part of what Putin casts as an attempt to hold Russia back economically and technologically.
Russia regularly probes U.S. defences, flying nuclear-capable strategic bombers near Alaska and sending submarines into the Atlantic to lurk off the East Coast.
Putin has complained that outgoing President Donald Trump was unable to improve U.S-Russia ties and has singled out what he has called President-elect Joe Biden's harsh anti-Russian rhetoric.
On Thursday, Putin blamed U.S. intelligence agencies for a series of recent media investigations into people close to him. Without providing evidence, he also linked U.S. intelligence agencies to what he presented as the stage-managed poisoning of Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny.
Putin did not congratulate Biden on his victory in the Nov. 3 election until Dec. 15. Putin said last month he was not worried that his delay in congratulating Biden would worsen U.S.-Russia ties.
"You can't spoil a spoiled relationship," said Putin.
'COZY BEAR'
Some cyber researchers have suggested that Russia's SVR foreign intelligence service may have been behind the latest attack.
In 2018, Dutch media cited unnamed intelligence officials as saying the AIVD, the Dutch intelligence agency, had linked a Russian hacking group known as "Cozy Bear" or APT29 (advanced persistent threat 29) to the SVR. The AIVD did not comment.
The Washington Post cited sources on Dec. 13 as saying the United States had identified "Cozy Bear" as being responsible for the latest cyber attack referred to by Pompeo.
Hackers from "Cozy Bear" were detected by cyber security firm CrowdStrike on the U.S. Democratic Party's servers in the run-up to the 2016 U.S. presidential election when email accounts of Hillary Clinton's staff were hacked.
In July, Britain, the United States and Canada accused "Cozy Bear" of trying to steal COVID-19 vaccine research from academic and pharmaceutical institutions around the world.
'FANCY BEAR'
Russian military intelligence, commonly known as GRU, has potent cyber offence capabilities, according to U.S. intelligence agencies.
In particular, GRU controls a hacking group known to cyber researchers as "Fancy Bear" or APT28 (advanced persistent threat 28) they have said.
It was that group, according to a Department of Justice indictment filed in 2018, that hacked the email accounts of Hillary Clinton's staff before the 2016 election.
Reuters reported in September that Microsoft believed "Fancy Bear" had also targeted a firm working with Biden.
In 2016, the World Anti-Doping Agency accused Russian hackers of stealing confidential medical information about U.S. Olympic athletes and publishing it online. The FBI later seized the domain of the site - http://www.fancybear.net - where the information was released.
"Fancy Bear" hackers have also been linked by cyber security investigators to cyber attacks on the U.S. and French elections.
THE FSB
Russia's Federal Security Service, the FSB, is the country's main domestic intelligence agency.
The United States in 2017 charged two FSB agents and two hackers with masterminding the 2014 theft of 500 million Yahoo accounts.
The Justice Department indictment included charges of computer fraud, economic espionage, theft of trade secrets, wire fraud, access device fraud and aggravated identify theft.
It painted a picture of the Russian security services working hand-in-hand with cyber criminals, who helped spies further their intelligence goals in exchange for money.
U.S. prosecutors say the St. Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency (IRA) played a key role in Russian efforts to try to sway the 2016 election in favour of Trump.
It did so, they say, by flooding social media with false reports and conspiracy theories in an attempt to exploit existing divisions.
The group is a Kremlin-backed outfit whose employees have posed as Americans, according to U.S. officials.
The U.S. Treasury Department in September imposed sanctions on individuals and entities linked to the financier of the IRA, who was charged in 2018, along with 12 other individuals and three entities, with conspiracy to defraud the United States for his alleged role in election meddling.

Thank you for contacting this firm. We have found that an initial question and answer session in writing is most often the best way to begin the exchange of information in order to respond in a timely manner to a potential client's satisfaction. Therefore, please complete the following questionnaire. These questions assist us in determining, in our experience and judgment, whether you may have a case and whether we may help you in the prosecution of that case.
Prior to signing a formal representation agreement, you remain free to contact any other attorney or law firm and this firm will take no action to track your statute of limitations nor will we take any measures to preserve your legal rights. A statute of limitations is a time period within which a formal lawsuit must be filed or all rights to compensation are lost. Typically, the statute of limitations in a medical malpractice action is one (1) year from the date of the malpractice action, which can possibly be extended up to three (3) years under certain circumstances. During the review process, it is your responsibility to track the statute of limitations and protect your claim. Should you have concerns about the statute of limitations during the review process, please do not hesitate to contact us, but, again, we are not your attorney, and it is your option to seek other legal representation during the review process.
The Questionnaire below will hopefully allow us to respond to you in only one week. However, reviewing and researching a potential medical malpractice, speaking with medical experts, and evaluating the merits versus costs can often take several weeks. Therefore, should you desire to seek alternative representation, it is in your best interests to contact an attorney at the earliest possible time.
Medical malpractice actions have many procedural hurdles, are expensive to litigate, and are capped in terms of damages by recent legislation and public initiative. It is often our unfortunate responsibility to inform clients that a cost/benefit analysis does not indicate a lawsuit being brought even if a medical provider clearly acted negligently. Should we decline to accept your case for this reason, please remember these unfortunate circumstances at the voting booth the next time insurance companies push for "reform." Should we accept your case, request more information/documentation or wish to schedule an appointment, we will contact you. Thank you again for your interest in this firm.
Please download and fill out your Medical Malpractice Client Intake Form and upload to bottom of this questionnaire.
What is the name of the injured or deceased party?
What is your relationship to the injured or deceased party?
When did the injury and/or death occur?
When was medical negligence first suspected?
Why do you believe there was medical negligence?
What are the damages (e.g., medical bills-insurance paid?), future medical bills, past and future lost income/support, length of time for pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, etc.)?

Automotive Industry in MexicoA Key Sector
A Key Sector in Mexico
Mexico production will reach 4 million units by 2018 and 5 million by 2020.
More than 48 car and light truck models are produced in Mexico.
The automotive and autoparts sector in Mexico has been driven by the productive presence of the top ten (light and heavy) vehicle assembly companies in the world, such as General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Nissan, Honda, BMW, Toyota, Volvo and Mercedes-Benz. *
*Asociación Mexicana de la Industria Automotríz (AMIA) (2014)
& in the Region of Queretaro
More than 300 companies in the automotive industry.
More than 41.000 jobs in the automotive sector.
A strong supply chain created locally:
1 national OEM distribution center
4 OEM buses & tractors assembly plants: Volkswagen, MAN, SCANIA, CNH, Irizar
+200 TR2 suppliers*
* statistics supplied by Queretaro State Government
Mexico's automotive industry is mature, dynamic and in continuous growth. In 2014, Mexico's Automotive industry showed clear signs of recovery; light vehicle production reached a new historical record with 3 million vehicles1.
At a global level, Mexico ranked as seventh producer of light vehicles1. In two years, Mexico climbed two positions, surpassing French and Spanish production.
Currently, the automotive sector accounts for 6% of the national GDP and 18% of manufacturing production. The Mexican automotive industry is expected to continue increasing in the future. The forecasts indicate production will reach 4 million units by 2018 and 5 million by 2020 1.
Companies in the light vehicle industry have a total of 18 production complexes located in 11 states of Mexico, where they perform activities that range from assembly and armoring, to casting and stamping of vehicles and engines. Currently, more than 48 car and light truck models are produced in Mexico.
In terms of heavy vehicles, the OEMs have reached an important level of development in the country, performing activities ranging from assembly, stamping and bodywork, producing a wide range of models to satisfy the demand of the domestic and export markets. Currently, 11 commercial vehicle manufacturers and two engine manufacturers for this kind of vehicle have production facilities in Mexico.
In 2011, Mexico reached production of 136,678 heavy vehicles, ranking as sixth producer globally behind China, Japan, India, The United States and Brazil. The heavy vehicle production in Mexico is expected to reach 196.8 thousand vehicles by 2016.
Mexico is the world's eighth car, truck, part and component producer. It's main export market is still the United States, even when in recent years, several markets, such as many Latin American countries, have increased their share in Mexican exports.
In 2014, nine of every one hundred vehicles were exported to Latin America. The main destinations for Mexican exports were Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Chile.
Europe is another important destination for Mexican exports: 4 of every hundred light vehicles exported in 2014 were sent to the European Union1.
Concerning heavy vehicles, in 2010 Mexico was the leading supplier of commercial vehicles to the United States. Mexico had an 85% share of imports value to the United States in the commercial vehicle segment, exceeding Canada in that year.
BIn 2012, the Automotive and auto-part sectors in Mexico accounted for 20.8% of total foreign direct investment (FDI) 3. This reiterates the country's appeal as one of the sector's investment destination.
Investments announced between 1999 and 2013 by automaking companies established in Mexico reached more than 30 billion dollars, with the leading investors being General Motors, Chrysler, Daimler, Ford, Volkswagen, , Nissan and Mazda3.
OEMs in Mexico
The automotive and autoparts sector in Mexico has been driven by the productive presence of the top ten (light and heavy) vehicle assembly companies in the world, such as General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Nissan, Honda, BMW, Toyota, Volvo and Mercedes-Benz.
Most of the assembly companies in Mexico have autoparts companies located around their vehicle plants to comply with supply and delivery deadlines.
The recognized quality of Mexico's automotive manufacturing has enabled several OEMs to choose Mexico as a unique manufacturing platform for all their destinations. This sets the adequate industrial environment for luxury vehicles manufacturing, fostering Mexico as an exclusive platform for OEMs.
In recent years, the Mexican industry has shown a shift in trends, going from the maquilas of automobiles towards the development of capacities for the integral production of vehicles for specific niches, such as Vehizero and Mastretta.

Women pretending to be men
Published May 20, 2003 at 1:00am
With great enthusiasm, USA Today featured a front-page article in its "Life Section" on the allegedly booming industry of "bachelorette" parties. Mirroring bachelor parties, these parties feature male hunks stripping and performing lap dances on the bride-to-be and some of her friends.
The article was accompanied by a large color photo of one attractive bride-to-be ecstatically smiling while a male stripper with long hair on his head and no hair on his chest rubbed himself on her thigh.
We are told that such bachelorette parties are increasingly common, the modern woman's answer to bachelor parties featuring a groom-to-be, his male friends and female strippers. As women are now the equals of men throughout society, we are told, they are equal here, too.
Trouble is, the whole thing is largely untrue and entirely sad.
It is not untrue in terms of the reporting – such parties are taking place. What is untrue is the message – that female sexuality is so similar to men's that women enjoy ogling male nudity and long to touch anonymous naked men.
I asked young women listeners to my radio show to call and tell me if, moral values aside, they could imagine themselves excited by a bunch of gorgeous men taking their clothes off and rubbing their bodies on them as female strippers do for men. Overwhelmingly, they called (and wrote) to say that such images actually turned them off. The few who said they would like it, under questioning came to realize that they hardly like what men like.
For example, a 29-year-old woman who described herself as highly sexually charged was adamant that just as a man could get excited with a lap dance from a nearly naked woman, she could really get into a male stripper doing the same. I asked her two questions:
If any of the male strippers said he wanted to have sex with you in an adjacent room, values aside, would you go?
Would you go with the male stripper into a private room away from your women friends and have him rub his naked body all over you?
I could have asked her many more questions to explain how different her sexually charged femaleness is from that of even a normally charged male: Would she like all the male strippers to rub their hands all over her body, under her clothing? Men would. Would she get turned on watching the males have sex with one another? Men fantasize women doing this.
For virtually every woman on planet Earth, the answers to these and many other questions – most of them unfit for a family newspaper – are no. For virtually every male on the same planet, the answers are yes.
The differences between men's and women's sexual natures are enormous. The objectification of the female body that is natural to the heterosexual male (as is the objectification of the male body to the homosexual male) is so devoid of emotional or intellectual meaning as to be unfathomable to women.
Nevertheless, our society has played a terrible trick on many women. It has told them that equality means acting the same as men. That is how you have the utterly false spectacle of women acting thrilled to have anonymous men strip and rub themselves on them.
It is also a function of anger. Many women are not thrilled at the prospect of soon-to-be-husbands getting all aroused with naked strippers on their laps. So here's their response: "See, men, we can do it, too." But they really can't.
The false attempt to act like males also explains the current phenomenon of the female sexual predator – whatever men can do, women can do better. But such behavior, like the bachelorette party, is all pretend, created by a generation of women deliberately confused about their sexual identity by feminism and the university.

Magic Sand Escape is a new Point'n'Click Adventure game from Esklavos created by Federico Rutenberg.
Search for clues and solve puzzles to find the four keys to escape from this sandy ruin.
Take SHOVEL and CACTUS PIECE 1 from the background on the left. Notice the three pillars. One is missing a yellow leaf. There's also a candle with a strange glyph under it and a fire. Go right.
Take CACTUS PIECE 2 by the gate. Dig up the sand pile to get a STICK. There's a candle by the gate, a cactus with no branches, a stopped hourglass, and of course, a panel at the top of the gate where we'll need to put in a pattern. Go right.
Dig up the sand pile to get a RAG. Pick up the last 3 CACTUS PIECES (bottom corners and the middle of the right side). There are two more candles here, a locked trunk, and a book. The book gives you a CANDLE CODE. It also has the PIXEL PICTURE for the top of the gate and a YELLOW LEAF.
Enter the mushroom picture above the gate for the RED KEY. Put the leaf in the middle column (in the first scene) for the BLUE KEY. Put the cactus pieces on the cactus in scene 2, then go back to scene 1 and look at the strange picture again. It's a CACTUS CLUE. Make the cactus match the clue (from the top: down, down, up, up, down) and get the WHITE KEY.
Combine the rag with the stick (by clicking the "+" button then the two items) to get a TORCH, then light it from the fire. Light the candles in order (ruins – scene 1, barrels – scene 3 left, portal – scene 2, desk – scene 3 right), then put them out (deselect the torch, then click on them) in the same order to get a YELLOW KEY.
As usual, put all the keys in their holes to activate the magic portal and escape.

60 students took part in the Borough cross country championships on Thursday 8th November to battle it out for the crown and went into the race as defending champions for the last 13 years in a row.
New Year 12 student, Ollie Coppellotti, went off like a rocket, quickly distancing himself from the pack. Behind him, a pack of Tiffin runners was forming as the boys moved their way up through the field. At the end of the first lap there were just two students in the top 20 who were not from Tiffin, and none in the top 10. The race culminated in a thrilling three man sprint for the finish around the final field of the course with Ollie being hunted down by Eyoel Abebaw-Mesfin in Year 11, and Tom Armstrong in Year 10. Ollie did enough to secure the race win and earn the gold medal, while Eyoel was also awarded a gold medal as winner of the intermediate (Years 10 and 11) race and Tom the silver medal in the intermediate race, though they had beaten every senior runner bar one as well.
In the end, the Senior team showed just why Tiffin have not lost this race in two school generations with the ten Tiffin runners making up the entire top ten (second place went to Kieran Desmond and 3rd place to Kai Pishke), securing a perfect score and the team win as well.
In the intermediate competition Tiffin continued their dominance by claiming every spot on the podium (Will Murphy finishing just behind Tom Armstrong for 3rd) and very nearly locking out the top 10 as well, with finishing positions of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th and 9th and another emphatic team win. It certainly looks like it will take a miracle to stop Tiffin claiming the senior trophy again next year for the 15th time!
The Juniors also performed brilliantly and Tiffin won the cup overall with four of our Year 8 runners in the top ten, with Connor Foley finishing 2nd and Oscar Luck closely behind in 3rd.
Well done to everyone for representing the School in this competition.

Within the month of November, Thanksgiving was not the only traditional holiday that was celebrated with grateful words, socializing, and enjoying a delicious turkey, but one of the biggest events of the year was also held within the Hmong community known as the Minnesota Hmong New Year Festival from November 25th-27th. The Minnesota Hmong New Year was hosted by Hmong Family Foundation and held at the St. Paul RiverCentre. The Minnesota Hmong New Year welcomed local and nationwide Hmong residents from Minnesota and across the United States to celebrate the end of the harvest season.
The origin of the Hmong New Year was celebrated after a year of arduous work; therefore Hmong families set aside their farm tools, dressed up in their hand-crafted paj ntaub (embroidery) dresses, outfits, and sang kwv txhiaj (lyrical songs) while playing a courtship game called pov pob (ball toss). The modern Hmong New Year is a time for talent competitions that include singing, dancing, a beauty pageant and other arts and talents. This year there were two contestants that competed in the pageant. According to Miss Hmong Teen 2012, Kasia Lee, "I do applaud and congratulate those two young women for going forth with their competition and putting in their absolute best." Congratulations to Miss Hmong Minnesota 2017, Cib Xyooj, and Miss Hmong Minnesota 1st runner up, Kablia Lis.
Aside from the competitions and talent shows, the Minnesota Hmong New Year had vendors all around catering to the attendees. This year there were numerous vendors such as Creative Results, Nexvision Financial Group, Minneapolis Police Department, We Support Dylan Yang and many more. The vendors offered services, scholarships, benefits, prizes, food, movies and much more keeping attendees busy with continuous activities to enjoy. There were photo booths, such as Hmong Tojsiab Photo Booth, that was set up to capture memorable photos of families, parents, grandparents, children, and grandchildren. According to Dr. Zha Blong Xiong, associate professor of Family Social Science at the University of Minnesota, the Hmong New Year was a wonderful success. "I'm impressed, this year was phenomenal." Once you arrived to RiverCentre, you sensed numerous features that made the Hmong New Year eventful: the rattling of coins, the smell of delicious varieties of Hmong food, the echoed singing, and the colorful traditional dresses and outfits from little toddlers to wise elders.
This year, we continued to see faces from different generations. Elders, younger, mid-age groups; children and teens hanging out with their friends and doing some traditional ball tossing courtships; some celebrating their Hmong roots. We also continued to see different nationalities joining us, who sought to learn the Hmong culture, history, and experience the Hmong New Year. Brendan Jerome, who was dressed in Hmong embroidery outfit, said, "The Hmong New Year is fun - the performances and the different culture."
The Hmong New Year continued to serve Hmong food such as curry noodle, Hmong sausage, and eggrolls. In addition, western refreshments such as ice cream, chicken tenders, and mini-donuts were served. Action movie, Theej Txhoj Tuag, and horror movie, Nyab Tsim Niam Tuag, were seen on posters hanging over vendors. The vendors not only included numerous movies, but talented musicians such as Nraug Laus Band and Daneng Hang selling the work of their music.
Board member of the Hmong 18 Council, Txawg Xab Kwm, gave a speech on the accomplishments of the Hmong community. "We have come a long way since arriving in this country," recalled Txawg Xab Kwm. "Five or six decades ago the number of Hmong people who were able to speak English could be counted by some on only a few fingers. Look at us today - today, the sons and the daughters of the Hmong community among the ranks of those who write English and shape public policies as elected officials, as a senator, as a representative state legislator, as city councilmembers."
Within Hmong New Year 2017, there continued to be unity, happiness, and love within the Hmong community. Secondly, there continues to be imminent musicians, artists, and entrepreneurs successfully coming into the Hmong community. Lastly, individuals continue to successfully grow within their lives.
Therefore, in the words of Txawg Xab Kwm, "May good health and prosperity be with you."
Happy New Year (Zoo Siab Xyoo Tsiab)!

Йозефіна Свобода (, 29 січня 1861, Відень — 27 жовтня 1924, Відень) — австрійська художниця-портретистка, яка була однією з найактивніших портретистів Відня. У 1890 році вона отримала призначення придворної художниці при дворі королеви Вікторії.

Біографія

Йозефіна Свобода походила з віденської родини художників, вона була дочкою художника-портретиста  (1814—1902) та його другої дружини Йозефіни (уродженої Мюллер; 1839—1906), і сестрою художника Рудольфа Свободи молодшого (1859—1914). Її дядьками були живописець пейзажів і тварин  (1819—1859) та художник-орієнталіст Леопольд Карл Мюллер (1834—1892).

Після домашніх уроків малювання у свого батька навчалася живопису в школі прикладних мистецтв, сьогодні це Віденський університет прикладних мистецтв. Уже у віці 19 років її картини мали успіх і швидко продавалися.

У 1886 році її прийняли як аматорку до Будинку художників у Відні. Потім її внесли до списку членів-кореспондентів Клубу акварелістів як художницю портретистку. Намалювала англійську королівську сім'ю.

З 1886 року вона регулярно виставляла свої роботи, переважно портрети, в Будинку художників у Відні, на інших міжнародних виставках, у тому числі 1887 року в Гамбурзі, у 1888 році в Мюнхені та Берліні, та в 1893 році на світовій виставці в Чикаго.

Q: Flutter: initState in custom state full widget not triggered for second time I have a list of data that has id :
 [
        {
            "id": 1,
            "title": "close",
        },
        {
            "id": 2,
            "title": "car",
        },

I show this list in list view with horizontal axis :
Column(
              children: <Widget>[
                Container(
                  height: 50.0,
                  color: Colors.white,
                  child: ListView.builder(
                    scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
                    itemCount: _categories.data.length,
                    itemBuilder: (_, index) {
                      return Container(
                        child: InkWell(
                          onTap: () {
                            setState(() {
                              _selectedCat = _categories.data[index].id;
                            });
                          },
                          child: Container(
                            color: (index + 1) ==
                                    _categories.pagination.currentPage
                                ? Colors.red
                                : Colors.white,
                            margin: EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
                            child: Text(
                              _categories.data[index].title,
                              style: TextStyle(
                                  fontSize: 16.0, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
                            ),
                          ),
                        ),
                      );
                    },
                  ),
                ),
                Expanded(child: CategoryWidget(selectedCat: _selectedCat))
              ],
            ),

In CategoryWidget i shows items related to above data :
class CategoryWidget extends StatefulWidget {
  final int id;
  const CategoryWidget({@required this.id});

  @override
  _CategoryWidgetState createState() => _CategoryWidgetState();
}

class _CategoryWidgetState extends State<CategoryWidget> {
  Future _future;

  @override
  void initState() {
    _future = HomeProvider().getItems(widget.id); // not triggered
    super.initState();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Container(
      child: FutureBuilder<ItemModel>(
        future: _futureCategory,
        builder: (context, snapshot) {
         if (snapshot.hasData) {
            return ListView.builder(
                itemCount: snapshot.data.data.length,
                itemBuilder: (_, index) {
                  return Text(snapshot.data.data[index].name);
                });
        },
      ),
    );
  }
}

But when i taped on each horizontal item:
  onTap: () {
    setState(() {
      _selectedCat = _categories.data[index].id;
    });
  }

And set state is done, initState in CategoryWidget not triggered?

A: initState() doesn't get triggered when you re-build state, it only get triggered once and that's when the widget is loaded, the build method is what get triggered as you re-build your state.
change your code to this:
 @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
   _future = HomeProvider().getItems(widget.id);
    return Container(
      child: FutureBuilder<ItemModel>(
        future: _futureCategory,
        builder: (context, snapshot) {
         if (snapshot.hasData) {
            return ListView.builder(
                itemCount: snapshot.data.data.length,
                itemBuilder: (_, index) {
                  return Text(snapshot.data.data[index].name);
                });
        },
      ),
    );
  }
}

A: It was clearly mentioned in the State class' docs.
I think the correct way to do this is to override the didUpdateWidget method in the State subclass.
@override
  void initState() {
    _getItem();
    super.initState();
  }

  @override
  void didUpdateWidget(CategoryWidget oldWidget) {
    _getItem();
    super.didUpdateWidget(oldWidget);
  }

  void _getItem() async {
    _future = HomeProvider().getItems(widget.id);
  }


Get to learn more about their experiences and love of everything orange.
We're just 2 short weeks away from the UMACC Spring Meeting at the McLeod County Fairgrounds Toy Building.
My father was a lifelong enthusiastic supporter of Allis Chalmers machinery. Born and raised near New Ulm, MN, my childhood learning experiences included "driving" the C, WC, WD, WD45, D17, cultivating & plowing.
When my father passed away, I was just 20 years of age. It left me almost totally unprepared with unforeseen farming responsibilities. Taking over the dairy farm included several first-time experiences; planting and harvesting corn, small grains, making and baling hay, etc. eventually leading to my first experience with a pull type combine –either a Model 60 or 66!
Though now retired from farming, we're still living on the farm enjoying our collection of Allis Chalmers Tractors D10, WD, 175D and 185 and other pieces of farm equipment, along with an increasing collection of Allis toy tractors, etc.
Show in Canada, leading to several other shows, tractor caravans, and a membership in the Upper Midwest A-C Club ™. Shortly thereafter, I volunteered to help with the set up and take down of the Orange Spectacular® annual shows at Hutchinson, MN.
Though volunteering with the Hutchinson AC shows conflicted with AC Tractor caravans, I'll always remember those caravans as one of the most relaxing and awesome life experiences driving thru the countryside with my AC Tractor. The friendship, fellowship and enjoyment with other lovers of Allis Chalmers tractors created many a memory!
My wife, Arlene, and I have two married sons, a daughter, nine grandchildren and two great-granddaughters, who have always enjoyed and continue to be very supportive of all my involvements with The Upper Midwest A-C Club™, along with all related Allis Chalmers shows and functions.
I believe my past experiences will continue to be a strong asset to the club.
It would be an honor to continue serving as a dedicated Director/Board Member for the membership of the Upper Midwest A-C Club™.
Your vote of confidence and support would be most appreciated.
I am Darrell Grams Sr of Green Isle MN and have been a member of the UMACC for the past 20 years. I and Shirley have been married for 52 years, have 5 children, 13 grandchildren, and 4 great grandchildren. All of our children and many of our grandchildren have been actively involved in activities at the Orange Spectacular on a yearly basis.
I was first appointed to the UMACC in 2015 to fill the unexpired term of Larry Karg. In 2016, I was elected to serve on the Board of Directors and was elected President by other board members. In 2017, because of personal matters with Shirley and I having some Health issues, I stepped down as President , however I was then elected Treasurer by the Board. I have continued in that position and have decided to seek another term on the UMACC Board of Directors. I would look forward to the continued support I have received from the UMACC members over the past 4 years.

There may be better categories out there but i think these are ideal in a students life.
If you figure out a priority of a situation you determine a person's protocol and fulfill their needs faster. Such as, if there's a test in class as a student today you would bump it to protocol 03.12456789. So that before the decimal it's 0 being survival and 3 being homework, and the rest being preferences.
If you like a thing a certain way in a certain fashion and style; You need preferences. The way i have it set up for students is health and medication, sleep, homework, finance, work, social/love, politics, family and community. Though this is true, some people may put family first so family comes before all else. A protocol for this would be bumping family to number 1 and everything else down.
Everything happens a certain way in a certain order. If we would be to mimic machines for it's efficiency component the best system would be a number system. "Treat people like numbers" is system that allows decision making to be much simpler. Decisions are based on priorities and preferences and therefore almost automated to fulfill and find a persons personal needs in time.
alternatives could be (below) if you want to have a long variety of options.
eg. 0a, 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, 5a, 6a, 7a, 8a, 9a.
I believe this system is a solution in religion. If a religion puts ethics and personal morality lower on it's priority list; and they put politics, money and business before it's people's needs then it is not a good religion. Philosophy should be practiced in a correct pattern and form and only if that philosophy is a good practice to keep a person active and healthy will it be worth incorporating into life. Thus, it should be practiced religiously but without religion.
Fascinating. I kind of almost get what you're saying, although my mind isn't wired that way. I can just about see how it would work for you, though.

One of the more visual elements to Christians load is the barrel tip which leads to strong barrel awareness. Barrel awareness refers to the hitters ability to know and direct the barrel of the bat through the load and into commitment. High level hitters have the ability to load their barrel efficiently, controlling the . When we look at his loading sequence, we see a few angles that are important to managing the barrel, most specifically the angle from the handle of the bat into the lead and rear forearm.
Notice the rear elbow (right arm) tilts upward as the barrel tilts. This engages the rear forearm, creating (roughly) a 90-degree angle from the handle-hands-barrel and builds tension to which the barrel of the bat can whip around the hands. This "barrel-forearm complex" is important as it allows the hitter ample control of the barrel, stronger wrist positions and a deep entry into and through the zone. While the amount of movement through this portion of the load is dependent on the hitter, the ability to then generate bat-speed deep off of the rear shoulder is a component to the high-level swing.
Christians lower body gather inward to his center of mass allows for a strong coil against his rear leg. It looks more like a compression move similar to Josh Donaldson In doing so, he can release his swing with momentum back through the center of the plate and out towards the pitcher. This momentum combined with a deep barrel path allows for deep bat-speed through contact. Also, notice how he loads "against" the inside part of his rear leg as opposed to "on top" of the thigh. This allows for a quicker release of the rear hip/leg.
One of the aspects to Christians swing that jumps out is the barrel arc around the hands as the ball begins reaching home plate. The rearward barrel action around the hands is what creates deep, efficient bat-speed. As we discussed above, his loading mechanics allow for an efficient "release" of the barrel. However, I like to focus on the lead elbow positioning in this swing as a means to control the "hand pivot point" (said differently, the point to which the barrel turns around the hands).
If we look at the lead elbow (focus on the elbow guard) in this swing, you can see that while the lead hip begins to clear, the lead elbow remains forward towards the pitcher. As Christian begins to open (belt buckle towards the pitcher), you can begin to see the lead elbow go from pointing down towards the front of the plate to matching the plane of the pitch. This is the by product of creating good tension through the torso while keeping the hands back resisting the body opening.
(Josh Donaldson) Early "Palm-up/Palm-down" with lead wrist/hand pronation.
Control of the lead elbow is vital to maintaining swing direction and depth. If the lead elbow begins to leak forwards towards the pitcher, the hands follow suit. In an essence, the elbow acts as the center of the swing so control over that point allows for an efficient and forceful barrel path to the ball. The longer the lead elbow remains at the center of mass, the more efficient transfer of energy through the swing sequence.
